[ both laugh ] sarah : ah , well what if eric comes back ? rex : what ? what if he does ? sarah : i do n't know , i just -- i 'm not comfortable here , rex . eric looks at me like he hates me . rex : sarah , he 's gon na come around eventually . sarah : you do n't know that . rex : i do know that i do n't really want to talk about eric , not after tonight and the dinner we had . it just kind of felt like old times , right ? sarah : yeah . rex : [ chuckles ] what ? what is it ? sarah : i do n't know , i just -- rex : you just ca n't get eric out of your head , can you ? abigail : all right , kettle is on . so what 's this confession ? jordan : [ sighs ] well , i did n't mean to sound so dramatic , but i 'm just really worried . abigail : is it about ben ? jordan : about what ben might do . i mean , he never should have been released from the hospital that he was in . abigail : yeah , well his doctors were convinced that he was out of his psychotic state , and so is dr . evans . jordan : yeah , well , he knows how to fool people . abigail : yes , he does . i was one of those people . jordan : i came back to make sure that he never does anything to you ever again . abigail : what do you mean ? [ kettle whistling ] oh , um , i will be right back . claire : where could ciara be ? oh , my god , grandma hope must be freaking out . ben : she is freaking out . and she just accused me of kidnapping ciara from the airport . tripp : yeah , sounds like something you would do . ben : well i didn't . all right ? what about you ? you know where she is ? tripp : if i did , i would n't tell you . ben : [ scoffs , exhales ] i give up . claire : oh , my god . i really hope this is just a mix - up . ciara has to be okay . marlena : did you see sarah after you left my office ? eric : i walked in to my apartment , and her and rex were together . she forgave him for everything that happened . marlena : yeah . she told me that . she said she wanted to close a book on everything in the past and just start fresh . eric : yeah , with rex too . marlena : i 'm not sure she 's 100 % convinced that 's how she feels , that may -- eric : mom . let it go . marlena : kay . could i just say one thing ? eric : yeah . marlena : well , what if she just reconciled with rex because she thought she had ruined her relationship with you ? ben : you call yourself a doctor ? you are nothing but a two - faced quack ! eric : hey , listen , the only mistake my mother ever made as your doctor was letting you out of a mental institution . ben : you told me that everything we talked about was confidential . you lied ! eric : i said back off ! marlena : eric , i 've got it . honey . ben . look , i did n't betray your confidence lightly . ciara went missing , and hope was afraid that something had happened to her . ben : that 's what hope said ? marlena : it is . she was very worried . ben : she was worried ? like i 'm not worried ? marlena : i know you are . ben , confidentiality does n't apply if i believe i have evidence of a crime . ben : and you think i 'm the reason ciara 's missing . that 's the crime , right ? jordan : oh , i heard you had another baby . abigail : yes . oh , it was a baby girl , charlotte . jordan : aw , how does thomas feel about having a little sister ? abigail : oh , my god , he loves her . it 's really sweet . he 's getting sort of protective over her now . jordan : mm , i was always like that with ben . always trying to protect him from our father . now i feel like i have to protect people from ben . abigail : jordan , you know you can tell me anything . what 's going on ? jordan : it ju -- um . okay . the last time that i talked to him , he was really agitated , and so i asked him if he 'd gone off his meds . and he swore that he had n't , but i do n't know . something was off , and then he stopped taking my phone calls . so i booked a flight here . abigail : look , your -- your brother , uh , nearly ruined my life . i was actually institutionalized twice . jordan : i am so sorry . abigail : it 's been a long road back , and i 'm stronger for it . but i -- i still would n't go anywhere near ben . jordan : so you have n't had any run - ins with him ? abigail : actually , i mean , i saw him once . jordan : oh , well what happened ? tell me what happened . abigail : it was christmas eve , and i was at the dimera house . i was delivering divorce papers to stefan . roman : when marlena was talking about diana colville , i could see you squirming . john : yeah , it was , um , a bit uncomfortable . roman : c 'm on , do n't tell me you saw this diana and got that old feeling -- john : no , no , no . no , no , no , nothing like that . doc 's the only one for me . this thing with colville , that 's been over years ago . roman : so what 's making you squirm ? john : [ sighs ] [ inaudible ] colville left town without any warning . roman : so ? john : and she returns as leo starke 's mother . roman : so what , you 're feeling awkward about trying to dig up dirt on the son of an ex ? john : yeah . especially if that double - dealing little bastard turns out to be my son too . diana : i do not want to discuss john black with you . leo : oh , cut the ingénue crap , diana . you ca n't pull it off . you 're out to get him , are n't you ? diana : long time ago we were a couple . leo : [ sighs ] so the p.i . will horton hired to find you is an old boyfriend . diana : things did n't work out for us then . but he 's different now . he 's matured . he 's like a -- leo : what , like a fine wine ? an aged kentucky bourbon ? i get it , okay ? yeah , i might even say go for it if the circumstances were different , but john black is married to will horton 's grandmother , and will horton is trying to blow up my marriage to sonny . do you see where i 'm going with this ? they will do anything to get me , mom , which is why they hired john to find you . diana : and i promise you i will not be a problem . leo : i know you , mommy dearest , okay ? a few too many martinis , you get a glimpse of that salt and pepper chest hair , you will lie back , open up that vault of secrets of yours , and i will be toast . diana : what do you think i 'm gon na tell john ? oh , yes . that you 're a murderer . leo : you listen to me , lady i d . watch that mouth of yours . diana : it seems to me you 're the one that needs to watch out . all sonny kiriakis needs to know is that you killed somebody . and your hold over him will be out the window . and he will go back to his beloved ex - husband , and you [ chuckles ] well , who knows where in the hell you 'll be . leo : and you would n't give a rat 's ass , would you ? so long as you get what you want which in this case is a roll in the hay with an old flame . who cares if you have to sell your own son down the river . who cares if your own son who has had a remarkably joyless existence , thanks to you , cease to exist at all ? you not only would n't care , you would be relieved . diana : stop it . leo : i mean , really , mom . i have been nothing but an embarrassment to you from the moment you realized that i was not the son you dreamed of having . i was n't brilliant or talented or macho or athletic . diana : athletic ? but you were athletic . you were on the soccer travel team . leo : oh , my god . why do i even bother ? diana : you go ahead . you laugh . you laugh . but i did adore you . and i want you to know that i even carry a photograph of you in my wallet when you were about ten years old . you were kneeling and holding a soccer ball and smiling that -- that lovely smile of yours . you were sweet and funny . and athletic . and you made me so proud . so proud . and if i fail to tell you , i 'm ... i 'm terribly , terribly sorry . now i think you need to leave . leo : wait , wait , mom , um ... did you mean what you said ? would you betray me like that ? and tell people what i did ? leo : you took a man 's life , matthew . a man i cared deeply about . leo : damn it , mom , that is a lie , and you know it . since when did you ever give a damn about my father ? roman : so you really think that leo starke , or whatever his name is , could be your son ? john : it 's possible . roman : well , if that 's true , this is the second son you did n't know about . john : yeah , do n't remind me . roman : nobody sat you down and told you how not to get a woman pregnant ? john : apparently not . roman : so how do you know this kid 's your son ? john : i don't . but i 'm telling you , if it turns out a son of mine has caused all this misery for sonny and will , it 's gon na be a catastrophe and not just for me . i 'm talking about for doc too . marlena : ben . if you remember the meeting in my office , you were very agitated . you were desperate to see ciara . ben : so what ? i did n't even know she was back ! and now , because of you , i have hope brady and her skeevy little sidekick lawyer breathing down my neck because they 're dying to lock me up , and you know that ! ciara 's out there missing , and she could be in real danger ! i should be out looking for ciara , but i ca n't do that . because the doctor i trusted sold me down the river . sarah : eric and i were friends . he trusted me . and now he doesn't . god , i would give anything to undo that night . rex : yeah , but you were n't yourself that night , sarah . i mean , that night only happened because you found out about noelle and me . and you forgave me for that , which i 'm so grateful for , and eric 's gon na forgive you for xander . sarah : i wish i was as sure as you are . rex : well , i 'm feeling pretty positive . i just got my girlfriend back . sarah : i do n't [ laughs ] want to rush things . rex : meaning ? sarah : meaning i 've forgiven , but i have n't forgotten . rex : yes , abso -- of course . sarah : you know , 'cause when i think about you and mimi and you and noelle , i just ... a pain is still there . you know , it hurts really badly . and it 's not just my feelings . it 's my ego , too , 'cause all i can think is that i just was n't good enough for you . rex : you know that 's not true . sarah : how do i know that , rex ? because you keep telling me that ? 'cause those are just words . rex : no , no , no , because i hope you know , sarah , that you are a beautiful and talented and intelligent and altogether just awesome woman . any guy that does n't see that is just an idiot , and although i behaved idiotically under some pretty stressful circumstances -- sarah : oh , my god , please do not make any excuses . rex : i 'm not making excuses . i 'm just -- i hope you understand that it was my insecurities that made me act that way and my lack of confidence in us . like , i was afraid you were becoming disillusioned with me and i was not worthy of you and -- sarah : well , what better way to prove your worth than by cheating on me . rex : oh , god , no , just -- all you need to know , i -- i hate myself for what i did to you . i will always hate myself for what i did to you , and although it 's great and very important that we talk about our feelings , do n't you feel that moving forward instead of dredging up the pain , maybe it 's smarter to make happier memories . i mean , do n't you agree ? sarah : yeah , i do . rex : look , i also understand that everything that went on happened very recently so i get that it 's gon na take time for you to trust me again . i know that . sarah : i hope that 's all that it takes . this time . when i walked through a snowstorm for a cigarette , claire : okay . yeah , i will . i love you . bye . tripp : what 's ciara 's mom say ? claire : oh , well she and some other cops have all the video from the security footage at the airport , and they 're going over it . tripp : just hoping they see ciara ? claire : yeah . tripp : okay , that could take forever . hey , did you buy what ben was saying ? claire : why would n't i ? tripp : i mean , just running around here like his hair 's on fire ? you know , telling everybody how worried he is about ciara . that could be -- could be a really good cover . claire : he seemed really scared to me . tripp : oh , come on . i mean , he could have snapped when ciara was gone and then grabbed her as soon as she got back . claire : i think you need to give him a chance . tripp : yeah , no , no , you can give him a chance if you want to but not me , okay ? i 'm still convinced that he 's the one who set the fire with her still trapped inside of the cabin . claire : oh , my god , would you stop ? tripp , really , you could n't tell how worried he seemed about her ? tripp : yeah , we are all worried about her . oh , man . i just hope to god that something really bad has n't happened to her . jordan : i ca n't believe how much you 've been through . you were so together the last time i saw you . abigail : [ chuckles ] on the surface , maybe . jordan : and you and chad , is there any hope that you two might get back together ? abigail : yeah , that 's hope , i guess , but i just -- i really need to be able to trust him again . i do n't know if i ever really can . jordan : well that i understand . i mean , if he was determined to have you committed ... abigail : yeah . yeah , it was ... it was a dark time , but that is all over now . jordan : so how does ben figure in to all of this ? abigail : oh , uh , stefan . stefan hired him as his head of security . jordan : what ? ben ? abigail : yeah . he did n't tell you that ? jordan : [ scoffs ] no . abigail : yeah , when i was leaving the dimera house , i opened up the door and ben was standing right there . and he even asked stefan if he wanted him to stop me from leaving . jordan : oh , my god . abigail : yeah , it was pretty awful . i was standing there with charlotte in my arms , and i was looking right at ben . and i had this terror that he was gon na take charlotte away from me the exact same way that he did with thomas when he was a baby . and i had this split second where i looked at him and i saw that same cold look in his eyes , and it took everything in me to just push down that fear . jordan : so what happened ? did he try to take the baby ? abigail : no , i did n't give him a chance to . i just -- just pushed everything down and pushed past him and got the hell out of there . jordan : but if stefan had n't stopped him , you still do n't know what he would have done . abigail : no . no , i still do n't know . marlena : ben , let 's go to my office and talk about this . ben : what , so you can pump me for some more information ? pass it on to your buddy hope . no , i 'll never have another session with you , lady . we 're done . eric : hey , you have a lot of nerve coming down here on my mom after she took your side . ben : that 's all done now . hope brady 's wasting her time pinning this on me . ciara is out there right now with nobody to help her , and that 's on you . eric : get your hand away . marlena : ben . hope asked me about your state of mind . that 's all i talked to her about . ben : that 's all you talked to her -- that 's all she needed ! i came to you , and i was pretty shook up . and you know that , and i opened up to you . no matter what was going on inside my head , i would never ever hurt ciara . marlena : i believe that 's true . ben : it is . i 'm gon na be the one to find ciara . you and hope brady can go to hell . marlena : [ sighs ] roman : come on . you know marlena 's not gon na hold you responsible for what leo does . john : no , roman . this guy 's been making will 's life a living hell for months . so how is she supposed to deal with the fact that i may turn out to be this -- this punk 's biological father . hell , i do n't even know how i 'm gon na deal with it . roman : you think maybe you should just ask diana if this kid is yours ? john : probably . you know the trouble with that is ? i 'm not sure i want the answer . diana : do n't be ridiculous . i loved your father very , very much . leo : really ? that 's why all i ever heard was the two of you yelling and screaming and cursing at each other . diana : all couples fight , matthew . leo : sure , it 's part of all good marriages , right ? couples slamming doors in each other 's faces . husbands giving their wives the occasional black eye . wives throwing lamps and books and plates and knives at their husbands , threatening to cut off their most prized possession -- diana : all right ! all right . he was a difficult man . leo : difficult ? he was scum ! i did you and the world a favor by getting rid of him . diana : oh ! you still think you did the right thing . leo : yes , definitely . even if that means that i have to live with the fact that i killed my father . ( dad ) got it ? tripp : look , i do n't know what 's going on here , ciara , but all kinds of people are looking for you , so just -- just please call me back , okay ? claire : c 'm on , you know how ciara is . she probably just got to thinking on her long flight home and decided she was n't ready to face people yet . we do n't know what happened between her and theo down there . tripp : no , she would n't do that to her mom again . she knows exactly what hope went through , okay ? claire : you 're remembering how much you cared about her , are n't you ? tripp : well , i 'll always care about her . you know that . claire : no , i -- i know . it 's just ... i remember kissing you the last time she was gone and you shot me down . so is history gon na repeat itself ? tripp : no , this is completely different . i 'm worried about ciara because she 's my friend . claire : i know . you 're sure that 's all it is ? tripp : yeah , why are you even asking me this , hm ? i 'm with you now , claire , okay ? claire : okay . tripp : all right ? claire : okay . abigail : i was so relieved when stefan did n't have him follow me . i kept waiting for him to show up , you know , but he never did . jordan : you talk about the look that he had in his eye . was the same look that he had his eye when thomas was born ? so are n't you afraid that he might still come after charlotte ? abigail : no . no , nothing 's gon na separate me from my baby girl . and besides , ben thought that he was thomas ' father . i mean , he does n't think that about charlotte . he knows that both my children are chad 's , so -- so no , it 's not the same thing . jordan : but are n't you afraid that he might come after your new baby as some sort of retribution ? abigail : retribution for what ? jordan : thomas would be ben 's child if you had n't cheated on him with chad . abigail : um ... you know , i -- i ca n't , uh ... i ca n't think about that . i -- i do n't know . i mean , whether he has changed or he has n't change , i have to just not live my life in fear . you know ? i need to just move on , and i 'm trying to let ben do the same thing . sarah : i hope you know that i 'm not trying to play games with you . rex : no , sarah , you gave me another chance , okay ? you let me take you to dinner tonight , hold you in my arms , and kiss you . i -- [ laughs ] i can be patient , believe me . i 'm not gon na like it , but [ chuckles ] i can do it . sarah : thank you . rex : i 'll drive you home . sarah : oh . um . yeah , okay . that 's probably a good idea . [ soft piano music ] there is something else you should know . rex : what 's that ? sarah : i -- i ... i stopped things tonight because i thought it was a good idea . but that does n't mean that it was easy for me . rex : thank you for saying that , but , sarah , i do n't want to do anything that 's gon na rush you or pressure you into any situation . sarah : no , i -- you know , we 've both forgiven each other and i think we both understand that things ca n't just go back to the way that they were immediately . rex : yeah . sarah : but that does n't mean that they ca n't be a little better than they are right now . rex : better as in ? better than me taking you home and the two of us spending tonight alone ? sarah : yeah . yeah . that . john : you know , you 're right . just because the math sort of works does n't mean ... [ sighs ] maybe i 'll just let this whole thing go . roman : but do n't you kind of want to know for sure ? john : if a guy that bad turns out to be my son , yeah , it 's probably a good thing to know . roman : forewarned is forearmed . john : that 's a fact . i 'm gon na shoot by diana 's and see what i can find out . roman : all right . good luck . john : yeah . [ sighs ] [ door shuts ] marlena : oh . hi . john : hey , i thought you were headed home . marlena : i know , i know , but then i ran into eric and now we can go home together . unless you have some other plan . john : no . i 'm all yours . [ suspenseful music ] diana : i -- i ca n't undo what you did , matthew . but please do not say that you did it for me . yes , your father and i had problems . but i loved him very , very much . and deep inside , he was a good man , a good husband . leo : what ? are we talking about the same person ? you gon na tell me he was a good father too ? diana : no , he was n't much of a father . but he did n't deserve to die . leo : he was an evil , abusive pig . diana : no ! leo : yes , he was , and i 'm sorry if you turned him into a saint now that he 's dead , but i remember what he was , mom . he got what he deserved . and if you do n't watch out and keep your mouth shut you 're gon na get the same thing . [ soft music ] [ tense music ] ben : ciara , wherever the hell you are , i 'm going to find you . i promise you . jordan : i 'm really glad you do n't feel threatened by ben anymore . you deserve to have some peace . abigail : well , i really appreciate you worrying about me , but maybe you should check in with ben and let him know you 're in town . jordan : that 's a good idea . it 's really late . you probably get up early with the kids . abigail : yeah , let me just take this tray in and then i 'll walk you out . jordan : we 're friends . you do n't have to walk me to the door . abigail : it was really good to see you . jordan : you too . thank you . abigail : okay . all right , you good ? jordan : yes . abigail : okay .

[ kettle whistling ] oh , um , i will be right back . claire : where could ciara be ? oh , my god , grandma hope must be freaking out . ben : she is freaking out . and she just accused me of kidnapping ciara from the airport . tripp : yeah , sounds like something you would do . ben : well i didn't . all right ? what about you ? you know where she is ? tripp : if i did , i would n't tell you . ben : [ scoffs , exhales ] i give up . claire : oh , my god . i really hope this is just a mix - up . ciara has to be okay . marlena : did you see sarah after you left my office ? eric : i walked in to my apartment , and her and rex were together . she forgave him for everything that happened . marlena : yeah . she told me that . she said she wanted to close a book on everything in the past and just start fresh . eric : yeah , with rex too . marlena : i 'm not sure she 's 100 % convinced that 's how she feels , that may -- eric : mom . let it go . marlena : kay . could i just say one thing ? eric : yeah . marlena : well , what if she just reconciled with rex because she thought she had ruined her relationship with you ? ben : you call yourself a doctor ? you are nothing but a two - faced quack ! eric : hey , listen , the only mistake my mother ever made as your doctor was letting you out of a mental institution . ben : you told me that everything we talked about was confidential . you lied ! eric : i said back off ! marlena : eric , i 've got it . honey . ben . look , i did n't betray your confidence lightly . ciara went missing , and hope was afraid that something had happened to her . ben : that 's what hope said ? marlena : it is . she was very worried . ben : she was worried ? like i 'm not worried ? marlena : i know you are . ben , confidentiality does n't apply if i believe i have evidence of a crime . ben : and you think i 'm the reason ciara 's missing . that 's the crime , right ? jordan : oh , i heard you had another baby . abigail : yes . oh , it was a baby girl , charlotte . jordan : aw , how does thomas feel about having a little sister ? abigail : oh , my god , he loves her . it 's really sweet . he 's getting sort of protective over her now . jordan : mm , i was always like that with ben . always trying to protect him from our father . now i feel like i have to protect people from ben . abigail : jordan , you know you can tell me anything . what 's going on ? jordan : it ju -- um . okay . the last time that i talked to him , he was really agitated , and so i asked him if he 'd gone off his meds . and he swore that he had n't , but i do n't know . something was off , and then he stopped taking my phone calls . so i booked a flight here . abigail : look , your -- your brother , uh , nearly ruined my life . i was actually institutionalized twice . jordan : i am so sorry . abigail : it 's been a long road back , and i 'm stronger for it . but i -- i still would n't go anywhere near ben . jordan : so you have n't had any run - ins with him ? abigail : actually , i mean , i saw him once . jordan : oh , well what happened ? tell me what happened . abigail : it was christmas eve , and i was at the dimera house . i was delivering divorce papers to stefan . roman : when marlena was talking about diana colville , i could see you squirming . john : yeah , it was , um , a bit uncomfortable . roman : c 'm on , do n't tell me you saw this diana and got that old feeling -- john : no , no , no . no , no , no , nothing like that . doc 's the only one for me . this thing with colville , that 's been over years ago . roman : so what 's making you squirm ? john : [ sighs ] [ inaudible ] colville left town without any warning . roman : so ? john : and she returns as leo starke 's mother . roman : so what , you 're feeling awkward about trying to dig up dirt on the son of an ex ? john : yeah . especially if that double - dealing little bastard turns out to be my son too . diana : i do not want to discuss john black with you . leo : oh , cut the ingénue crap , diana . you ca n't pull it off . you 're out to get him , are n't you ? diana : long time ago we were a couple . leo : [ sighs ] so the p.i . will horton hired to find you is an old boyfriend . diana : things did n't work out for us then . but he 's different now . he 's matured . he 's like a -- leo : what , like a fine wine ? an aged kentucky bourbon ? i get it , okay ? yeah , i might even say go for it if the circumstances were different , but john black is married to will horton 's grandmother , and will horton is trying to blow up my marriage to sonny . do you see where i 'm going with this ? they will do anything to get me , mom , which is why they hired john to find you . diana : and i promise you i will not be a problem . leo : i know you , mommy dearest , okay ? a few too many martinis , you get a glimpse of that salt and pepper chest hair , you will lie back , open up that vault of secrets of yours , and i will be toast . diana : what do you think i 'm gon na tell john ? oh , yes . that you 're a murderer . leo : you listen to me , lady i d . watch that mouth of yours . diana : it seems to me you 're the one that needs to watch out . all sonny kiriakis needs to know is that you killed somebody . and your hold over him will be out the window . and he will go back to his beloved ex - husband , and you [ chuckles ] well , who knows where in the hell you 'll be . leo : and you would n't give a rat 's ass , would you ? so long as you get what you want which in this case is a roll in the hay with an old flame . who cares if you have to sell your own son down the river . who cares if your own son who has had a remarkably joyless existence , thanks to you , cease to exist at all ? you not only would n't care , you would be relieved . diana : stop it . leo : i mean , really , mom . i have been nothing but an embarrassment to you from the moment you realized that i was not the son you dreamed of having . i was n't brilliant or talented or macho or athletic . diana : athletic ? but you were athletic . you were on the soccer travel team . leo : oh , my god . why do i even bother ? diana : you go ahead . you laugh . you laugh . but i did adore you . and i want you to know that i even carry a photograph of you in my wallet when you were about ten years old . you were kneeling and holding a soccer ball and smiling that -- that lovely smile of yours . you were sweet and funny . and athletic . and you made me so proud . so proud . and if i fail to tell you , i 'm ... i 'm terribly , terribly sorry . now i think you need to leave . leo : wait , wait , mom , um ... did you mean what you said ? would you betray me like that ? and tell people what i did ? leo : you took a man 's life , matthew . a man i cared deeply about . leo : damn it , mom , that is a lie , and you know it . since when did you ever give a damn about my father ? roman : so you really think that leo starke , or whatever his name is , could be your son ? john : it 's possible . roman : well , if that 's true , this is the second son you did n't know about . john : yeah , do n't remind me . roman : nobody sat you down and told you how not to get a woman pregnant ? john : apparently not . roman : so how do you know this kid 's your son ? john : i don't . but i 'm telling you , if it turns out a son of mine has caused all this misery for sonny and will , it 's gon na be a catastrophe and not just for me . i 'm talking about for doc too . marlena : ben . if you remember the meeting in my office , you were very agitated . you were desperate to see ciara . ben : so what ? i did n't even know she was back ! and now , because of you , i have hope brady and her skeevy little sidekick lawyer breathing down my neck because they 're dying to lock me up , and you know that ! ciara 's out there missing , and she could be in real danger ! i should be out looking for ciara , but i ca n't do that . because the doctor i trusted sold me down the river . sarah : eric and i were friends . he trusted me . and now he doesn't . god , i would give anything to undo that night . rex : yeah , but you were n't yourself that night , sarah . i mean , that night only happened because you found out about noelle and me . and you forgave me for that , which i 'm so grateful for , and eric 's gon na forgive you for xander . sarah : i wish i was as sure as you are . rex : well , i 'm feeling pretty positive . i just got my girlfriend back . sarah : i do n't [ laughs ] want to rush things . rex : meaning ? sarah : meaning i 've forgiven , but i have n't forgotten . rex : yes , abso -- of course . sarah : you know , 'cause when i think about you and mimi and you and noelle , i just ... a pain is still there . you know , it hurts really badly . and it 's not just my feelings . it 's my ego , too , 'cause all i can think is that i just was n't good enough for you . rex : you know that 's not true . sarah : how do i know that , rex ? because you keep telling me that ? 'cause those are just words . rex : no , no , no , because i hope you know , sarah , that you are a beautiful and talented and intelligent and altogether just awesome woman . any guy that does n't see that is just an idiot , and although i behaved idiotically under some pretty stressful circumstances -- sarah : oh , my god , please do not make any excuses . rex : i 'm not making excuses . i 'm just -- i hope you understand that it was my insecurities that made me act that way and my lack of confidence in us . like , i was afraid you were becoming disillusioned with me and i was not worthy of you and -- sarah : well , what better way to prove your worth than by cheating on me . rex : oh , god , no , just -- all you need to know , i -- i hate myself for what i did to you . i will always hate myself for what i did to you , and although it 's great and very important that we talk about our feelings , do n't you feel that moving forward instead of dredging up the pain , maybe it 's smarter to make happier memories . i mean , do n't you agree ? sarah : yeah , i do . rex : look , i also understand that everything that went on happened very recently so i get that it 's gon na take time for you to trust me again . i know that . sarah : i hope that 's all that it takes . this time . when i walked through a snowstorm for a cigarette , claire : okay . yeah , i will . i love you . bye . tripp : what 's ciara 's mom say ? claire : oh , well she and some other cops have all the video from the security footage at the airport , and they 're going over it . tripp : just hoping they see ciara ? claire : yeah . tripp : okay , that could take forever . hey , did you buy what ben was saying ? claire : why would n't i ? tripp : i mean , just running around here like his hair 's on fire ? you know , telling everybody how worried he is about ciara . that could be -- could be a really good cover . claire : he seemed really scared to me . tripp : oh , come on . i mean , he could have snapped when ciara was gone and then grabbed her as soon as she got back . claire : i think you need to give him a chance . tripp : yeah , no , no , you can give him a chance if you want to but not me , okay ? i 'm still convinced that he 's the one who set the fire with her still trapped inside of the cabin . claire : oh , my god , would you stop ? tripp , really , you could n't tell how worried he seemed about her ? tripp : yeah , we are all worried about her . oh , man . i just hope to god that something really bad has n't happened to her . jordan : i ca n't believe how much you 've been through . you were so together the last time i saw you . abigail : [ chuckles ] on the surface , maybe . jordan : and you and chad , is there any hope that you two might get back together ? abigail : yeah , that 's hope , i guess , but i just -- i really need to be able to trust him again . i do n't know if i ever really can . jordan : well that i understand . i mean , if he was determined to have you committed ... abigail : yeah . yeah , it was ... it was a dark time , but that is all over now . jordan : so how does ben figure in to all of this ? abigail : oh , uh , stefan . stefan hired him as his head of security . jordan : what ? ben ? abigail : yeah . he did n't tell you that ? jordan : [ scoffs ] no . abigail : yeah , when i was leaving the dimera house , i opened up the door and ben was standing right there . and he even asked stefan if he wanted him to stop me from leaving . jordan : oh , my god . abigail : yeah , it was pretty awful . i was standing there with charlotte in my arms , and i was looking right at ben . and i had this terror that he was gon na take charlotte away from me the exact same way that he did with thomas when he was a baby . and i had this split second where i looked at him and i saw that same cold look in his eyes , and it took everything in me to just push down that fear . jordan : so what happened ? did he try to take the baby ? abigail : no , i did n't give him a chance to . i just -- just pushed everything down and pushed past him and got the hell out of there . jordan : but if stefan had n't stopped him , you still do n't know what he would have done . abigail : no . no , i still do n't know . marlena : ben , let 's go to my office and talk about this . ben : what , so you can pump me for some more information ? pass it on to your buddy hope . no , i 'll never have another session with you , lady . we 're done . eric : hey , you have a lot of nerve coming down here on my mom after she took your side . ben : that 's all done now . hope brady 's wasting her time pinning this on me . ciara is out there right now with nobody to help her , and that 's on you . eric : get your hand away . marlena : ben . hope asked me about your state of mind . that 's all i talked to her about . ben : that 's all you talked to her -- that 's all she needed ! i came to you , and i was pretty shook up . and you know that , and i opened up to you . no matter what was going on inside my head , i would never ever hurt ciara . marlena : i believe that 's true . ben : it is . i 'm gon na be the one to find ciara . you and hope brady can go to hell . marlena : [ sighs ] roman : come on . you know marlena 's not gon na hold you responsible for what leo does . john : no , roman . this guy 's been making will 's life a living hell for months . so how is she supposed to deal with the fact that i may turn out to be this -- this punk 's biological father . hell , i do n't even know how i 'm gon na deal with it . roman : you think maybe you should just ask diana if this kid is yours ? john : probably . you know the trouble with that is ? i 'm not sure i want the answer . diana : do n't be ridiculous . i loved your father very , very much . leo : really ? that 's why all i ever heard was the two of you yelling and screaming and cursing at each other . diana : all couples fight , matthew . leo : sure , it 's part of all good marriages , right ? couples slamming doors in each other 's faces . husbands giving their wives the occasional black eye . wives throwing lamps and books and plates and knives at their husbands , threatening to cut off their most prized possession -- diana : all right ! all right . he was a difficult man . leo : difficult ? he was scum ! i did you and the world a favor by getting rid of him . diana : oh ! you still think you did the right thing . leo : yes , definitely . even if that means that i have to live with the fact that i killed my father . ( dad ) got it ? tripp : look , i do n't know what 's going on here , ciara , but all kinds of people are looking for you , so just -- just please call me back , okay ? claire : c 'm on , you know how ciara is . she probably just got to thinking on her long flight home and decided she was n't ready to face people yet . we do n't know what happened between her and theo down there . tripp : no , she would n't do that to her mom again . she knows exactly what hope went through , okay ? claire : you 're remembering how much you cared about her , are n't you ? tripp : well , i 'll always care about her . you know that . claire : no , i -- i know . it 's just ... i remember kissing you the last time she was gone and you shot me down . so is history gon na repeat itself ? tripp : no , this is completely different . i 'm worried about ciara because she 's my friend . claire : i know . you 're sure that 's all it is ? tripp : yeah , why are you even asking me this , hm ? i 'm with you now , claire , okay ? claire : okay . tripp : all right ? claire : okay . abigail : i was so relieved when stefan did n't have him follow me . i kept waiting for him to show up , you know , but he never did . jordan : you talk about the look that he had in his eye . was the same look that he had his eye when thomas was born ? so are n't you afraid that he might still come after charlotte ? abigail : no . no , nothing 's gon na separate me from my baby girl . and besides , ben thought that he was thomas ' father . i mean , he does n't think that about charlotte . he knows that both my children are chad 's , so -- so no , it 's not the same thing . jordan : but are n't you afraid that he might come after your new baby as some sort of retribution ? abigail : retribution for what ? jordan : thomas would be ben 's child if you had n't cheated on him with chad . abigail : um ... you know , i -- i ca n't , uh ... i ca n't think about that . i -- i do n't know . i mean , whether he has changed or he has n't change , i have to just not live my life in fear . you know ? i need to just move on , and i 'm trying to let ben do the same thing . sarah : i hope you know that i 'm not trying to play games with you . rex : no , sarah , you gave me another chance , okay ? you let me take you to dinner tonight , hold you in my arms , and kiss you . i -- [ laughs ] i can be patient , believe me . i 'm not gon na like it , but [ chuckles ] i can do it . sarah : thank you . rex : i 'll drive you home . sarah : oh . um . yeah , okay . that 's probably a good idea . [ soft piano music ] there is something else you should know . rex : what 's that ? sarah : i -- i ... i stopped things tonight because i thought it was a good idea . but that does n't mean that it was easy for me . rex : thank you for saying that , but , sarah , i do n't want to do anything that 's gon na rush you or pressure you into any situation . sarah : no , i -- you know , we 've both forgiven each other and i think we both understand that things ca n't just go back to the way that they were immediately . rex : yeah . sarah : but that does n't mean that they ca n't be a little better than they are right now . rex : better as in ? better than me taking you home and the two of us spending tonight alone ? sarah : yeah . yeah . that . john : you know , you 're right . just because the math sort of works does n't mean ... [ sighs ] maybe i 'll just let this whole thing go . roman : but do n't you kind of want to know for sure ? john : if a guy that bad turns out to be my son , yeah , it 's probably a good thing to know . roman : forewarned is forearmed . john : that 's a fact . i 'm gon na shoot by diana 's and see what i can find out . roman : all right . good luck . john : yeah .

[ suspenseful music ] diana : i -- i ca n't undo what you did , matthew . but please do not say that you did it for me . yes , your father and i had problems . but i loved him very , very much . and deep inside , he was a good man , a good husband . leo : what ? are we talking about the same person ? you gon na tell me he was a good father too ? diana : no , he was n't much of a father . but he did n't deserve to die . leo : he was an evil , abusive pig . diana : no ! leo : yes , he was , and i 'm sorry if you turned him into a saint now that he 's dead , but i remember what he was , mom . he got what he deserved . and if you do n't watch out and keep your mouth shut you 're gon na get the same thing .

[ chuckles ] sonny : this is on you . you killed connie . you attacked ava . i did what i had to do . [ scene_break ] carly : that whole story that aj attacked ava because the jeromes would n't hire him -- it 's ridiculous . i do n't buy it . the only place where aj could hold himself up to michael as being better than sonny is that he was n't a mobster . he would never throw away the moral high ground to team up with the jeromes . he just would n't do it . that 's not aj . franco : well , he 's a drunk . they do n't make good decisions . carly : no , i told you -- the last words that aj spoke were about ava . `` sonny shot me because of ava . `` he died before i could find out why . franco : okay . so , what does the guy -- carlos -- have to do with any of this ? carly : well , carlos works for julian , but he seems to be ava 's bff lately . i 've seen them together a few times . franco : so , he broke into the quartermaine mansion and attacked aj ? carly : yeah , only hours before sonny stumbles upon aj attacking ava . there 's a connection . [ scene_break ] ava : poor carlos . what has he gotten himself into now ? morgan : so this was n't some jerome operation to whack aj ? ava : well , i would n't know . maybe julian was after aj . carlos is my friend , but he still takes his orders from julian . morgan : yeah , well , with all the information you 've given my dad , i do n't think julian 's gon na be giving anyone orders for much longer , so ... ava : i hope you 're right . julian 's become suspicious of me lately . i think he 's starting to think that i 'm on sonny 's side . morgan : wait , what -- why would he think that ? we -- we 've been careful , right ? we have n't slipped up . no one 's seen us together . that 's why we meet here and not at -- at your penthouse . ava : no , you 're right . no , we have been careful . and i do n't think we are the reason that julian is suspicious . in fact , my brother is convinced that our relationship is over . morgan : yeah . well , i 'm not too convinced that it is n't . [ scene_break ] carlos : either charge me or let me loose . anna : i think we 'd like to go over your statement one more time . tell me again -- why were you after aj quartermaine ? carlos : for the hundredth time , i did n't even know the guy . dante : so you did n't break into the quartermaine mansion ? carlos : like i said last night , no . dante : and that gun -- the one we found -- that was n't yours ? carlos : like i said , the gun was stolen from my trunk . you find the guy who stole it or whoever he sold it to , that 's your man . dante : okay . okay , just -- just so i got it all sorted out in my head ... anna : okay . dante : ... your statement is that you did not make an unlawful entry into the quartermaine -- carlos : for the last time , no ! i was never in any mansion , threatening some rich dude ! anna : dna evidence says otherwise . [ scene_break ] tracy : no , the intruder was wearing a mask . all i remember is luke and i came in , and he was standing over aj with a gun . i hit him over the head with a vase , and luke went after him . ned : i thought he got away . tracy : well , he did , but luke and i stopped him from killing aj . luke gave chase without a thought to his own safety . it was , in fact , a valiant effort . ned : oh . valiant luke . tracy : do n't start . ned : too late . i thought we would go over these before the house filled up with funeral attendees . tracy : wo n't be necessary . ned : i did you the favor of having a prenuptial agreement drawn up for luke . pretty standard fare . you each keep your assets that you brought into the marriage -- yours are considerable . his are nonexistent . so , all we need is stepdaddy dearest 's signature . where is your aging gigolo this morning ? [ scene_break ] kiki : whatever you and i are going through , michael , of course , i 'll be there ... [ knock on door ] kiki : i got to go , okay ? i 'll see you at the funeral . luke : i brought doughnuts . bet you 'd love to get your mouth around -- kiki : i 'm not hungry , and i need to get changed . luke : this 'll only take a minute . kiki : my -- my dad and my cousin are here . luke : oh , no , they 're not . i waited till they 'd left ... so we could be alone . kiki : i 'm calling the police . luke : relax . kiki : do n't you dare touch me . luke : i 'm not here to touch you . i just want to ask you a question . why did you tell tracy that i made a pass at you ? kiki : because you did -- twice . luke : that was supposed to be our little secret . kiki : tracy is the one that came to me . she said that you told her that i made a pass at you , which is not true . i could n't let you get away with something like that . luke : is that the real reason , or are you just trying to come between me and my bride - to - be because you want me all to yourself ? [ scene_break ] tracy : luke is n't here . he 's running an errand . ned : quick -- hide your credit cards , or your `` hero `` will rip through your liquid assets before we get him to sign this . tracy : he 's not signing a prenup . ned : he refused ? tracy : i told him he did n't have to . [ scene_break ] ava : why would you think we were over ? morgan : well , the -- the talk we had last night about you saying that a part of you still loves silas . ava : and you did n't exactly deny that you still love kiki . morgan : right , but i think that 's how we -- we kind of started , is we both were hurting , and we used each other to get through it . ava : i certainly hope that it 's more than that now . morgan : no , no , it is . it absolutely is . it 's -- it 's just we had that talk , and things -- they felt bad . and -- and then you texted me , and -- and -- and we were all over each other , and it was great . it -- it always is great . [ sighs ] i just -- are -- are we good ? are we good ? are we just slapping a band - aid on what 's not right between us ? [ scene_break ] franco : okay , look , whatever you 're seeing in this carlos arrest , i do n't get it . carly : carlos had no motive whatsoever to go after aj . he 's the enforcer for the jeromes , which means one of the jeromes had to give the order , and it was n't julian 's name that aj brought up on his deathbed . it was ava 's . so , he must have been working for her . franco : yeah . i do n't know , carly . it 's a little bit of a reach , do n't you think ? although ava does seem to have a very strong effect on men . carly : that 's what scares me . franco : yeah , well , you scare easy . i think you need to relax . just -- just calm down a little bit . i think that , you know , i know that this is a very gloomy day for -- for michael , but look at it this way -- you got everything you wanted . aj is completely out of the picture , and you did n't have to lift a finger . carly : you 're talking like it 's just over . franco : yeah . it 's a funeral , carly . that is , by definition , over . carly : franco , sonny shot aj . meanwhile , the police have arrested someone else with ties to ava , a name aj brought up on his deathbed , okay ? see ? it 's all connected . it is . and i have to figure out what 's going on because -- stop ! i have to figure out what 's going on because my son stands to get hurt in all this , so tell me how it 's over . franco : okay , well , look , ava did n't like aj . nobody liked aj . that does n't necessarily mean that ava wanted aj dead . carly : i do n't know that . that 's why i need to talk to carlos . franco : well , how are you gon na do that ? carlos is in custody . even if he wanted to talk to you , he 's not gon na talk to you in front of a bunch of police . carly : you know what ? you 're right . i should just forget about everything . i 'm gon na go downstairs and get my dress . franco : whoa , whoa , whoa . hold on . hold on . whoa , whoa . wait a second . carly : what ? franco : are -- are you mad at me ? [ scene_break ] carlos : what dna ? not mine . you got nothing . dante : there 's a 99.99 % chance it 's yours . carlos : nice try . i never gave you a sample . anna : you did n't have to . we took it off the water bottle we gave you yesterday . remember ? we matched it to some blood that was found on the vase that tracy quartermaine used to hit you . that proves you were in the house and you tried to kill aj . [ scene_break ] aj : you know , sonny , i was cleared of connie 's death . i mean , maybe you punished the wrong person . [ footsteps approaching ] sonny : you 're not gon na talk -- you 're not gon na talk to me ? olivia : you told me last night to back the hell off . that 's what i 'm gon na do . sonny : by leaving ? olivia : like i said , i 'm gon na be staying at my place . sonny : olivia , listen . olivia : [ sighs ] sonny : please ? olivia : unless -- unless you 're willing to just tell me what 's eating at you ... sonny : i ca n't do it . olivia : okay . then i guess i 'll see you when you 're ready to be honest . goodbye , sonny .

[ scene_break ] ned : mother , i thought we agreed -- a prenup will prove that luke has changed -- that he 's not just marrying you to wipe out your bank accounts . tracy : ned , i know that you 're trying to protect me , but it really is n't necessary . luke is not marrying me for my money . ned : and you know this how ? tracy : he told me . ned : ohh , i see . and i was worried . tracy : he was so hurt . you should have seen the look on his face . ned : mm . lots of crocodile tears . tracy : if you could , uh , hold back the sarcasm for a minute , i will explain . luke thinks that signing a prenup is an indication of a lack of trust . ned : bingo ! tracy : he was so upset , he wanted to call off the wedding . ned : and you fell for that ? he was bluffing , mother . he 's playing you . he 's manipulating you like a puppet . ca n't you see that ? tracy : no , you ca n't see . he and i have been through so much this past year ! ned : oh , if you 're talking about the debacle on cassadine island , i 've been meaning to ask you -- what the hell were you thinking ? risking your life , impersonating a guard while lunatics like jerry jacks and faison are running around the island with guns ? tracy : what i was thinking is that the man that i love was in trouble and needed me . i was there for him -- not anna , not laura , not skye , not holly -- it was me . i 'm the one that rescued him . it bonded us . ned : and so he is going to show his gratitude by robbing you blind ? tracy : and then , by the way , he was kidnapped and held captive at miscavige . ned : sounds like an ideal spot for him . tracy : you do not get to be snide about this . those experiences were a wake - up call for luke . he realized that he did not want to live the rest of his life without me -- not a minute of it . he wants to give me his heart and his soul . our connection transcends money . ned : mother , you 're a quartermaine . the only connections that transcend money are the ones you have with your family , and , then , only on a good day . tracy : i 'm just gon na tell you what luke told me he would marry me if i was living in a car . he does n't care about my bank accounts . he does n't care about my charge cards . i 'm the only woman for him .

[ inhales deeply ] [ exhales deeply ] it 's a shame that you wasted all that time and your mother 's money on an attorney . our marriage is gon na be based on trust , so we do n't need that . do we , tracy ? tracy : no , we do n't . luke : sweetheart , should n't you be getting ready for the funeral ? monica may need us . tracy : i trust the two of you can share those doughnuts and call a truce before i get back . luke : that 's what i 'm hoping . tracy : you need to respect my wishes . i deserve that . ned : about that truce ... luke : screw the truce . it 's time that i was perfectly clear with you , oh , once and future stepson .

[ scene_break ] ned : you have my mother completely snowed with this supposedly life - altering brush with death , but i am on to you , spencer . i know exactly what you 're doing , and since my grandfather is n't here to prevent you from plundering the family fortune , it falls to me . luke : i appreciate your honesty , ned . let me return the courtesy . your mother and i are together now . i love her . i am going to share her life and her work at elq , and if you try to stop us , if you do anything to try to prevent this marriage , i will ... ned : you will what ? what can you possibly do to me , luke ? luke : i will kill you .

[ chuckles ] ava : put him on . diane : i 'll put you on speaker . ava : no ! no speaker . you give him the phone . you step out of the room . diane : all right , let me get this straight . you call me at least a dozen times to demand that i defend mr. rivera , and now you want me to step out of the room ? ava : i 'm paying you , diane . do as i ask . diane : you 're right . it 's your dime . for you . [ door opens ] ava : carlos ?

[ scene_break ] aj : so , what 'd you decide , sport ? you , uh , gon na make it to my funeral ? i mean , me , personally -- i would n't miss it for the world . it 's -- it 's the one time when i can be guaranteed that everybody 's gon na say something nice about me . you know , i 'm sure michael will deliver the eulogy , and , you know , he 'll -- he 'll vow to get justice , and he 'll talk about punishing that poor sucker carlos rivera . and the whole thing is -- it 's just -- it 's so ironic . i mean , michael tries -- he tries so hard to be fair and to be a good person -- [ as sonny ] to be a man of honor . [ chuckles ] [ normal voice ] and he 's gon na be going after an innocent man . i mean , you know , he does n't know it , but you do ! do n't you ? and you 're gon na die -- just little pieces of you are gon na die , and who knows , sonny ? maybe this time , the pressure will get to you . maybe this time , you 'll blow up at michael . but this is for sure -- that guilt -- that guilt is gon na eat you alive until you push away everyone that you love .

sonny is still tormented by visions of aj . olivia comes by to get her stuff and leaves , saying she needs a break . spencer tries to call sonny , with no answer . he has his driver stop at sonny 's house on the way to school , so that he can warn him that luke is out to get him . when sonny yells at aj to go away , spencer thinks he is yelling at him . sonny yells to aj that he is n't really there . outside the door , spencer insists that he really is there . the driver concludes that it is a bad time for a visit . spencer asks the driver to stop one more place before taking him to school .
<s>[INST] spencer : uncle sonny , it 's me , spencer cassadine , again . it 's really , really important . i do n't understand why you are n't returning my calls . [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] aj : are you looking for this ? [ chuckles ] or sap . you know what ? i almost feel bad for this guy . i mean , he did n't kill me . you did . [ gasps ] that almost reminds me -- today is my funeral , and i was wondering if you 'd like to do a little celebrating -- you know , maybe a little dancing on my grave ? [ vocalizing ] [ scene_break ] ned : good morning . are you all right ? tracy : why would n't i be ? ned : we are burying a member of the family today . true , neither one of us thought too much of junior , but in some ways , that makes it even sadder . he 's gone -- truly gone -- and nothing will ever be resolved now . tracy : actually , i was thinking about alan . [ inhales deeply ] he wanted so much for aj , and none of it was realized . [ sighs ] aj had so many chances , and he blew every one of them . ned : well , at least there may be a lead on his killer . the cops arrested someone involved with the , uh , february break - in . recognize this guy ? [ scene_break ] anna : what are you doing here ? should n't you be with your brother ? dante : i got some time before the funeral , and i wanted to see if the labs came back on carlos rivera . anna : oh , yeah , i 'm waiting for them , too . if the dna matches , then we can connect carlos to the break - in at the quartermaines ' . dante : yeah . anna : [ sighs ] officer : commissioner ? you were looking for these ? anna : perfect timing . thank you so much . here we go .

[ scene_break ] ross : time to take you to school . spencer : i 'm not going straight to school today , ross . ross : because of miss emma , sir ? spencer : this is way bigger than losing emma -- much bigger . you need to drive me to uncle sonny 's house . ross : may i ask why , sir ? spencer : he is n't answering his phone , and i need to warn him that uncle luke is out to get him . [ scene_break ] sonny : you need to leave me the hell alone . olivia : yeah , i heard you last night , sonny , loud and clear . i got it . sonny : hey , uh -- olivia : okay ... i just stopped by to , uh , get a couple things that i needed . sonny : i 'm sorry about what happened last night . olivia : me , too . i 'm sorry , too . i am . sonny : okay , can we -- can we -- can we -- do you have to go ? olivia : sonny . sonny : do you have to go ? olivia : do you think i want to leave you right now ? like this ? sonny : well , then why are you doing it , then ? olivia : i love you , sonny . you 're not giving me any choice . sonny : can we talk , olivia ? can we talk ? olivia : no , we ca n't talk right now . i 'm going over to my place to stay for a while . i just -- i just need a break , okay ? aj : kind of serves you right . [ chuckles ] sonny : this is on you . you killed connie . you attacked ava . i did what i had to do . [ scene_break ] carly : that whole story that aj attacked ava because the jeromes would n't hire him -- it 's ridiculous . i do n't buy it . the only place where aj could hold himself up to michael as being better than sonny is that he was n't a mobster . he would never throw away the moral high ground to team up with the jeromes . he just would n't do it . that 's not aj . franco : well , he 's a drunk . they do n't make good decisions . carly : no , i told you -- the last words that aj spoke were about ava . `` sonny shot me because of ava . `` he died before i could find out why . franco : okay . so , what does the guy -- carlos -- have to do with any of this ? carly : well , carlos works for julian , but he seems to be ava 's bff lately . i 've seen them together a few times . franco : so , he broke into the quartermaine mansion and attacked aj ? carly : yeah , only hours before sonny stumbles upon aj attacking ava . there 's a connection . [ scene_break ] ava : poor carlos . what has he gotten himself into now ? morgan : so this was n't some jerome operation to whack aj ? ava : well , i would n't know . maybe julian was after aj . carlos is my friend , but he still takes his orders from julian . morgan : yeah , well , with all the information you 've given my dad , i do n't think julian 's gon na be giving anyone orders for much longer , so ... ava : i hope you 're right . julian 's become suspicious of me lately . i think he 's starting to think that i 'm on sonny 's side . morgan : wait , what -- why would he think that ? we -- we 've been careful , right ? we have n't slipped up . no one 's seen us together . that 's why we meet here and not at -- at your penthouse . ava : no , you 're right . no , we have been careful . and i do n't think we are the reason that julian is suspicious . in fact , my brother is convinced that our relationship is over . morgan : yeah . well , i 'm not too convinced that it is n't . [ scene_break ] carlos : either charge me or let me loose . anna : i think we 'd like to go over your statement one more time . tell me again -- why were you after aj quartermaine ? carlos : for the hundredth time , i did n't even know the guy . dante : so you did n't break into the quartermaine mansion ? carlos : like i said last night , no . dante : and that gun -- the one we found -- that was n't yours ? carlos : like i said , the gun was stolen from my trunk . you find the guy who stole it or whoever he sold it to , that 's your man . dante : okay . okay , just -- just so i got it all sorted out in my head ... anna : okay . dante : ... your statement is that you did not make an unlawful entry into the quartermaine -- carlos : for the last time , no ! i was never in any mansion , threatening some rich dude ! anna : dna evidence says otherwise . [ scene_break ] tracy : no , the intruder was wearing a mask . all i remember is luke and i came in , and he was standing over aj with a gun . i hit him over the head with a vase , and luke went after him . ned : i thought he got away . tracy : well , he did , but luke and i stopped him from killing aj . luke gave chase without a thought to his own safety . it was , in fact , a valiant effort . ned : oh . valiant luke . tracy : do n't start . ned : too late . i thought we would go over these before the house filled up with funeral attendees . tracy : wo n't be necessary . ned : i did you the favor of having a prenuptial agreement drawn up for luke . pretty standard fare . you each keep your assets that you brought into the marriage -- yours are considerable . his are nonexistent . so , all we need is stepdaddy dearest 's signature . where is your aging gigolo this morning ? [ scene_break ] kiki : whatever you and i are going through , michael , of course , i 'll be there ... [ knock on door ] kiki : i got to go , okay ? i 'll see you at the funeral . luke : i brought doughnuts . bet you 'd love to get your mouth around -- kiki : i 'm not hungry , and i need to get changed . luke : this 'll only take a minute . kiki : my -- my dad and my cousin are here . luke : oh , no , they 're not . i waited till they 'd left ... so we could be alone . kiki : i 'm calling the police . luke : relax . kiki : do n't you dare touch me . luke : i 'm not here to touch you . i just want to ask you a question . why did you tell tracy that i made a pass at you ? kiki : because you did -- twice . luke : that was supposed to be our little secret . kiki : tracy is the one that came to me . she said that you told her that i made a pass at you , which is not true . i could n't let you get away with something like that . luke : is that the real reason , or are you just trying to come between me and my bride - to - be because you want me all to yourself ? [ scene_break ] tracy : luke is n't here . he 's running an errand . ned : quick -- hide your credit cards , or your `` hero `` will rip through your liquid assets before we get him to sign this . tracy : he 's not signing a prenup . ned : he refused ? tracy : i told him he did n't have to . [ scene_break ] ava : why would you think we were over ? morgan : well , the -- the talk we had last night about you saying that a part of you still loves silas . ava : and you did n't exactly deny that you still love kiki . morgan : right , but i think that 's how we -- we kind of started , is we both were hurting , and we used each other to get through it . ava : i certainly hope that it 's more than that now . morgan : no , no , it is . it absolutely is . it 's -- it 's just we had that talk , and things -- they felt bad . and -- and then you texted me , and -- and -- and we were all over each other , and it was great . it -- it always is great . [ sighs ] i just -- are -- are we good ? are we good ? are we just slapping a band - aid on what 's not right between us ? [ scene_break ] franco : okay , look , whatever you 're seeing in this carlos arrest , i do n't get it . carly : carlos had no motive whatsoever to go after aj . he 's the enforcer for the jeromes , which means one of the jeromes had to give the order , and it was n't julian 's name that aj brought up on his deathbed . it was ava 's . so , he must have been working for her . franco : yeah . i do n't know , carly . it 's a little bit of a reach , do n't you think ? although ava does seem to have a very strong effect on men . carly : that 's what scares me . franco : yeah , well , you scare easy . i think you need to relax . just -- just calm down a little bit . i think that , you know , i know that this is a very gloomy day for -- for michael , but look at it this way -- you got everything you wanted . aj is completely out of the picture , and you did n't have to lift a finger . carly : you 're talking like it 's just over . franco : yeah . it 's a funeral , carly . that is , by definition , over . carly : franco , sonny shot aj . meanwhile , the police have arrested someone else with ties to ava , a name aj brought up on his deathbed , okay ? see ? it 's all connected . it is . and i have to figure out what 's going on because -- stop ! i have to figure out what 's going on because my son stands to get hurt in all this , so tell me how it 's over . franco : okay , well , look , ava did n't like aj . nobody liked aj . that does n't necessarily mean that ava wanted aj dead . carly : i do n't know that . that 's why i need to talk to carlos . franco : well , how are you gon na do that ? carlos is in custody . even if he wanted to talk to you , he 's not gon na talk to you in front of a bunch of police . carly : you know what ? you 're right . i should just forget about everything . i 'm gon na go downstairs and get my dress . franco : whoa , whoa , whoa . hold on . hold on . whoa , whoa . wait a second . carly : what ? franco : are -- are you mad at me ? [ scene_break ] carlos : what dna ? not mine . you got nothing . dante : there 's a 99.99 % chance it 's yours . carlos : nice try . i never gave you a sample . anna : you did n't have to . we took it off the water bottle we gave you yesterday . remember ? we matched it to some blood that was found on the vase that tracy quartermaine used to hit you . that proves you were in the house and you tried to kill aj . [ scene_break ] aj : you know , sonny , i was cleared of connie 's death . i mean , maybe you punished the wrong person . [ footsteps approaching ] sonny : you 're not gon na talk -- you 're not gon na talk to me ? olivia : you told me last night to back the hell off . that 's what i 'm gon na do . sonny : by leaving ? olivia : like i said , i 'm gon na be staying at my place . sonny : olivia , listen . olivia : [ sighs ] sonny : please ? olivia : unless -- unless you 're willing to just tell me what 's eating at you ... sonny : i ca n't do it . olivia : okay . then i guess i 'll see you when you 're ready to be honest . goodbye , sonny . [ scene_break ] carly : ever since i told you that i think ava 's role in aj 's murder is bigger than sonny realizes , you 've done nothing but argue with me . franco : [ muttering ] oh , well , technically , i think you 're arguing with me , but ... carly : [ sighs ] franco : okay , look , i thought you liked to argue with me . i thought you thought it was kind of fun . carly : what -- what i 'd like , franco , is to have someone in my life that respects my instincts , okay ? that understands that i might not necessarily have all the answers , and , hell , i may even jump to the wrong conclusions a few times along the way , but i do know when someone has an agenda , and when that person threatens my family , you damn well better believe i 'm gon na find out what 's going on . franco : okay . carly : okay . franco : so , how is ava threatening your family ? carly : how can you not grasp this ? ! franco : i ... carly : the truth about sonny shooting aj has the potential to blow my family apart , okay ? ava is involved , and i do n't trust her . i thought i could trust you . franco : you can trust me . carly : really ? i told you sonny 's secret . do you know how big that is ? franco : well -- carly : do you ? sonny and i have been through so much . we have two kids , all right ? we have a huge history , and when our backs are up against the wall ... franco : i already suspected what sonny had done . you just confirmed it . carly : he would hate that you knew . he would hate it . and i told you because you said you needed to know the truth , so i gave it to you . i thought you were on my side . franco : i am on your side . carly : really ? because it does n't feel like it . now i want to find out the truth about what happened at ava 's apartment before sonny showed up and shot aj , and yet you 're acting like i 'm on some crusade to crush ava . franco : hey , look , if the agenda is to crush ava , i 'm in . carly : that is not what this is about ! franco : no , no , of course not . carly : knock it off ! franco : [ snickers ] carly : i 'm not kidding ! i do n't give a damn about what happens to ava -- i do n't . all right ? i want to know the truth . i want to know the truth for sonny , for michael , and for me . and , yes , i 'm mad at you .

[ scene_break ] bo : pinpoint the source of that signal ? tek : not quite , but it 's definitely coming from hope 's radio . she 's somewhere on the outskirts of the north side of town . bo : if she jammed her radio , it means she could n't get to her phone or pda . tek : i know you 're worried about celeste 's premonition . i know that 's some heavy stuff , all right ? seeing you grieving over hope 's coffin . bo : no way . you 're wrong . you 're making this up . hope is not going to die . celeste : i 'm sorry , bo , but i think the meaning is -- bo : i do n't care what you think . if something happens to hope , patrick is responsible . if she dies , he 's the one who killed her . no , i do n't believe in that psychic crap . but , yeah , if lockhart 's got her , there is a possibility i 've lost her forever .

[ scene_break ] tek : the signal 's getting closer . i should have the exact location soon . bo : damn it . i told hope not to go after that scum bag on her own . why did n't she wait for backup ? tek : 'cause that 's what you would have done , right ? bo : that 's different . she 's my wife . and besides this guy being dangerous , he 's obviously not working on his own . tek : so who do you think took jennifer and why ? bo : i do n't know . i mean , she 's pregnant . she 's a widow with a 13-year - old daughter . she 's not working as a reporter anymore . i have no idea why someone would want to kidnap her . and to make her think her husband 's still alive -- that 's just sick and wrong . somebody arranged for this private plane , so it 's got to be somebody with a lot of money and resources . tek : how does lockhart fit in ? bo : i do n't know . but i can guarantee you one thing -- when i do find him , he will tell me everything he knows . [ scene_break ] jack : by the way ... did i -- tell you how much i missed you ? jennifer : jack , i 've missed you so much , and i have so much to tell you . you -- you ca n't believe everything that 's happened since you 've been gone . jack : i 'll tell you one thing i 've learned since being dead -- death just is n't worth living without you . jennifer : you know what , jack ? you 're our whole life . jack : yeah . well , uh ... i 'll bet abigail 's changed a lot since i 've been gone . jennifer : yeah . she -- she has . she -- she 's grown up so much . she 's -- she 's so mature . but you know , deep in her heart , she 's still your little girl , jack . and you know , she 's been so strong for me , and when i go to bed at night , i hear her crying in her room , and she does n't think i hear her , but i do . jack : well ... does she know that you came looking for me ? jennifer : no , no . she 's at -- at camp , and hopefully we 'll be back before she gets back . gosh , jack , i have missed you so much , i feel like my heart 's going to burst sometimes . jack : well , we 've just got a lot of catching up to do , that 's all . all right . i got some good news . jennifer , i 'm not coming down there to get you . i got a better idea . jennifer : what ? jack : i 'm going to take this loop of this vine and throw it down , and you 're going to wrap it around your waist , and i 'm going to pull you up . here goes . jennifer : okay , okay . i got it ! i got it ! jack : good . just a minute , baby . or , uh , should i say babies ? i 'm going to pull you up , and you 're going to be in my arms , and i 'm never letting you go . i 'm going to -- oh , god . god , please , give me the strength to save jennifer .

[ dreamily ] shawn . nicole : hey , hey , yo . earth to jan. look , the faster you get this finished , the faster you can get back to shawn . jan : hey , now you 're talking . what if by some weird chance , crystal 's already talking to john ? which would mean that she has an alibi , which would make all of this look pretty stupid . nicole : yeah , well , hopefully , john has n't gotten anywhere near her , and hopefully , she 'll be long gone before he gets a chance to . [ scene_break ] crystal : i do n't know what the hell you 're talking about . i had nothing to do with marlena 's death . john : you 're a liar . crystal : prove it . john : i will prove it . i 'll get the truth , and i can do it one of two ways -- the easy way or the hard way . it 's your choice , baby . crystal : you think you scare me ? do your worst . but first , before you do , let me tell you something -- i learned in prison if you know something and somebody wants that information , they 're going to get it . so you might as well save yourself the beating and just tell them . but no matter how hard somebody beats you , you ca n't tell them something that you do n't know . and i do n't know nothing about your precious marlena 's death except what i told you before -- that she blames you for betraying her , and she was sneaking out of prison to come and get you . john : shut up , will you ? it 's nothing but lies . that 's all you do is you lie . crystal : face it , john -- the woman that you loved was a killer , and she 's dead , and she brought it on herself , and there is no way that i am going to sit here and let you pin what happened to her on me . john : let me tell you something . i know you do n't want to talk . you know why ? because the second you admit any guilt in marlena 's death , you 're going right back in the slam for life , or worse , you 're going to go there for death . do you understand me ? but you want to know something , crystal girl ? it does n't have to be that way . crystal : ha . and now , ladies and gentlemen , it 's time for `` let 's make a deal . `` john : that 's a fact . you come clean right now and you tell me what you know about my wife 's death , and yeah -- yeah , i can make you a little deal . [ scene_break ] tek : i still do n't understand why hope went after lockhart on her own . that 's the first thing they teach you at the academy is do n't go into a dangerous situation without backup . bo : that 's right ... unless you do n't have a choice . [ device beeping ] tek : i got it . they 're at the private airfield . bo : that 's a couple miles from here . lockhart 's obviously making a run for it . [ device beeping faster ] tek : attention all units . if there 's a black and white in the vicinity , we need you for backup at the private airfield north of salem . approach with caution . suspect may be armed , and we may have an officer in jeopardy . [ scene_break ] hope : this is the registration number for the plane that took off with jennifer . patrick : jennifer was smart . she must have been suspicious and e - mailed you the number before she got on board . hope : my god , i ca n't believe i did n't check . patrick : i ran the number through the faa records . hope : those records are n't available to the public . patrick : the plane is registered to a dummy corporation , but the interesting part is the last 10 flights have all been round - trip from right here in salem to this group of uninhabited islands in the caribbean . that must be where they took jennifer . if i 'm going to save her , that 's where i need to go , but i need to leave right now . hope : wait a minute . what are you doing ? patrick . patrick : i 'm bypassing the switch you shot , and as soon as it 's fixed , i 'm taking off . but first i need to ask you for a huge favor .

[ device beeping ] tek : i got it . they 're at the private airfield . bo : that 's a couple miles from here . lockhart 's obviously making a run for it .

[ scene_break ] crystal : what kind of deal ? john : you tell me who was behind the plot to murder my wife , and i 'll see to it that your death penalty is taken off the table . crystal : you do n't have that kind of clout . john : as an ex - cop and a current member of the i.s.a . , yes , i do . now , you help put kiriakis and marlena 's murderer behind bars , i 'm sure the police will be very grateful to you . crystal : i had nothing to do with old man kiriakis 's death , and i sure as hell do n't know anything about it . i was in prison when it happened . john : well , then you got the perfect alibi , do n't you ? crystal : yeah . john : but i 'm sure you know something about it . i think the same person who murdered victor is the same person who set my wife up to be shot . crystal : i do n't see what one could possibly have to do with the other . john : well , it 's very elementary . you see , my wife was accused of being the salem stalker . the police right now do n't believe she really murdered victor , but i think marlena knew who did . that 's why she was killed -- to keep from naming them . so you tell me , crystal , who murdered victor , and who set up my wife to be killed during her bogus escape attempt ? crystal : i think i know .

wyatt : i know , and i promised you that i could get her to stay away . steffy : yeah . wyatt : i was sure that she would listen to me , that she would get out of the house and out of that relationship . steffy : i know . i thought you could , too . but it 's obvious -- you have no more influence over her than i do . and now she 's -- she 's living with my grandfather , and i ca n't even think about it . i mean , i have to see this woman every day at work . wyatt : i know . steffy -- why do n't you just let it play out ? relationships , they -- they run their course , right ? and the situation at work ? like , give my mother an office on the whole other end of the building . as for eric , like -- just have a little faith . steffy : faith in what ? wyatt : that he has the ability to see through everything that my mother has up her sleeve . steffy : oh , no , no , no . wyatt : yes , he does . steffy : your mom is too good at her game . i ca n't believe you 're asking me this . wyatt : i 'm just suggesting it . i just -- i think that you 're overestimating my mother , and you 're underestimating eric forrester . this whole thing will work itself out . but the one thing you can not do is let it come between us any more than it already has . come home , steffy . wyatt : come back to me , steffy . this -- this is crazy . steffy : i wo n't argue that . wyatt : i 'll tell you what . come home . i 'll fix you something to eat , and then we can take a walk on the beach and we can figure out our next strategy and -- steffy : wyatt , i -- i ca n't . i ca n't . wyatt : yes , you can . steffy : you do n't understand . your mom has interfered in my life , my business , my home . and she 's not leaving . so i had to . wyatt : leaving me is not the answer here , steffy . steffy : than what is the answer ? wyatt : i -- steffy : look , this is just -- this is too much for me right now . i just -- i need some space . my grandfather 's in way over his head and he does n't even see it . wyatt : your grandfather 's not some mindless old man . you know that , right ? he 's been around the block with women like my mother before . not exactly like my mother , but you know . he 's had his relationships . he 's not helpless . steffy : okay , look . you 're biased , and i do n't blame you for that because she 's your mom . but you know the damage she 's inflicted . i just thought this was all gon na go away , that you 'd be able to fix it . you ca n't . and i 'm starting to realize nobody can ! i did n't want to leave you . i did n't -- i did n't want to leave our home , our life , but -- i ca n't keep doing this anymore . i ca n't . wyatt : so ... how is leaving me gon na fix the problem ? steffy : i do n't -- i do n't know . but it 's my only hope , all right ? but i 've drawn the line . your mom has to leave . but she 's not , so i had to . that does n't mean i do n't love you . of course i love you , wyatt . i 'm married to you . i made a commitment to you , and i keep my commitments . but there was one stipulation . there was one thing i needed from you . quinn was gon na be out of our lives for good . wyatt : and i did n't follow through for you . not yet . because i am -- i am more determined than ever . if time does n't end that relationship , then i will . somehow , i will end it . but we -- we ca n't let this destroy our marriage , steffy . this is not the end for us . eric : you handled that well . i 'm impressed . quinn : pam is still upset with me . and she 's one of many . eric : well , we 'll deal with them all on a case - by - case basis . quinn : there 's ridge and thomas and steffy , not to mention my own son . they 're right . no one wants me here . eric : with one notable exception . quinn : [ sighs ] i do n't want to be a distraction , eric . that 's not what i came here for . i want to -- i want to create , not destroy , but that 's exactly what i 've done to steffy , to wyatt , to their marriage . eric : they will not break up over this . quinn : they 're already living apart . eric : i 'll talk to steffy . and this time , i 'll get through to her . quinn : [ sighs ] eric , that would mean so much to me . thomas : hey , hey . sasha : hi . thomas : how 's the workout going ?

<s>[INST] [ knock on door ] steffy : hey . wyatt : it 's kind of cramped for you , is n't it ? steffy : how 'd you know where to find me ? not that i was hiding or anything . wyatt : you obviously were n't gon na go to your grandfather 's house with my mother living there , and your dad 's kind of living out of a suitcase , so thomas , the supportive brother . steffy : hey , i 'm grateful he 's letting me stay here . wyatt : well , i 'm not . look , i want -- i want you to come back home , steffy . liam : well , thanks for stopping by . thomas : go ahead . let me have it . liam : no , no . no . i think i 'll let it slide . thomas : you needed that , dude . liam : yeah , i did . i totally did . thank you . thomas : so , how 'd it go ? liam : [ laughing ] well -- you arranged a face - to - face with steffy , and now you want the down and dirty ? thomas : i set it up . she is my sister . liam , i want what 's best for her , and in my opinion , that 's you . liam : it went well . thomas : so are you back together ? liam : not that well . [ laughs ] hey , you 're living with her . you tell me how she 's doing . thomas : she 's haunted by thoughts of quinn . pam : ugh , you were right , charlie . it is her car in the parking lot . charlie : want me to escort her out ? quinn : you might want to talk to eric first . look . i know how you both feel about me . pam : we 're not alone , quinn . charlie : capital n - o . nobody wants you here . quinn : yeah , except for the c.e.o . can we just figure out a way to make this work or least just accept the situation ? pam : meaning you and eric ? my sister 's husband ? never . quinn : i realize this is going to take some time . pam : no , quinn . read the lips . never . charlie : and i 'll be watching every move you make . you leave this building , i will search your bag , your purse -- you will take nothing away from here . eric : quinn . you got away before i did . quinn : i wanted to get a jump on things . eric : okay . pam : eric . how could you ? eric : good morning , pam . pam : i think i 'm gon na be sick . zende : are you , uh -- you need me to spot you ? sasha : no , i 'm good . you better watch yourself . i 'm working my way up to those pretty soon . zende : yeah . does n't look like it . sasha : [ laughs ] i hate you . [ sighs ] so , hey , um , it seems like things are working out pretty good for you and my sister . zende : could n't be better . sasha : well , that 's great , you know . me , too . zende : really ? sasha : yeah , i just made a new friend . zende : anyone i know ? sasha : thomas forrester . name ring a bell ? liam : so , is that all she talks about ? quinn ? thomas : i can tell you 're on her mind , if that 's what you 're asking . liam : no . no . not technically . i mean , i 'm just -- i 'm worried about her . i want to know how she 's doing . thomas : she was hoping wyatt would finally come through , convince his mom to back off all things forrester . liam : [ scoffs ] my poor brother . he 's been fighting that battle nonstop . thomas : and losing . steffy will never allow that woman back into her life . and here she is , living with our grandfather . liam : steffy wo n't put up with that . steffy : you know i ca n't come home , wyatt . wyatt : yes , you can . steffy : your mom is part of your life in that house . wyatt : only if we let her in . steffy : she 's in . you 're her son . wyatt : i 've -- i 've written her off . steffy : [ sighs ] babe . even if you wanted to , she would n't let you . wyatt : steffy , i tried my best . i went over there to pack her up and force her out , but it was your grandfather . he was the one who wanted her to stay . steffy : of course he did . she owns him now . wyatt : look , as much as i want to fix this , i realize i ca n't control everything . so maybe you can try and control your grandfather . quinn : it 's pretty with the diamonds , right ? [ giggles ] pam : i 'm gon na need a lot more than water to get me through this day . eric : there 's a bottle of scotch in the cabinet over there . pam : look , i am serious , eric ! have you just forgotten everything she 's done ? all the hurt that she 's caused so many people ? eric : no , of course not . charlie : well , then how about the crimes she 's committed ? eric : all right , stop it , you two . i 've made it very clear to everyone , including both of you , that if she reverts to her former behavior , our relationship is over and this job , too . quinn : and i would expect no less . pam : what do you think it 'll take , charlie ? a week ? charlie : well , the office pool says felony within 48 hours . pam : we 're gon na hold you to your word , and then charlie will personally boot her out the front door . eric : i doubt very much that 'll be necessary . quinn : look . you 're stephanie 's sister . somebody who 's very important to eric , and that makes you important to me . pam : [ scoffs ] look -- quinn : and i know that i have said that before , when i tried to befriend you for my own selfish purposes . pam : and i sure fell for that hook , line , and sinker . well , not this time , kitten . quinn : i 'm gon na make this up to you , pam . every hurtful thing i have ever done . because i am so sorry for it . pam : not enough . quinn : [ scoffs ] of course it is n't . i do n't expect your forgiveness . but you 're gon na see . i 'm not that person anymore . sasha : so , that 's the story . we connected here while working together . zende : you and thomas ? that -- who would have thought ? sasha : again , like i said , we are just friends at this point . zende : no , i got it . just friends at this point . sasha : [ scoffs ] thomas is an amazing guy . will you please just tell me you 're happy for me , zende ? zende : [ sighs ] liam : so , did your sister talk about a permanent split ? thomas : she was n't that definitive . she just said she wanted to handle the situation as best she can . liam : [ scoffs ] you do n't handle a situation like quinn . you remove yourself . thomas : she has . liam : i know this is killing my brother , but steffy 's safety has to take precedence here . i mean , she 's got to get out of this marriage . thomas : you know my sister . she does n't like to give up on anything , and that 's why this is so difficult for her . liam : are you saying she 's thinking about giving up ? thomas : how could she not ? liam : i think i should have her over here . thomas : without my setup ? liam : [ laughs ] no , it 's okay . it 's okay . i release you . your work is done . i 'll take it from here . i just -- steffy needs to start thinking past this nightmare she 's living in . thomas : into a future with you . liam : a future that should have begun a long time ago . steffy : i never thought my grandfather would do something like this . wyatt : yeah , well , they 're -- they 're adults , steffy . we ca n't exactly dictate their lives . steffy : this is n't some kind of normal relationship . quinn is pathological . how many times have we seen it ? wyatt : i know , and i promised you that i could get her to stay away . steffy : yeah . wyatt : i was sure that she would listen to me , that she would get out of the house and out of that relationship . steffy : i know . i thought you could , too . but it 's obvious -- you have no more influence over her than i do . and now she 's -- she 's living with my grandfather , and i ca n't even think about it . i mean , i have to see this woman every day at work . wyatt : i know . steffy -- why do n't you just let it play out ? relationships , they -- they run their course , right ? and the situation at work ? like , give my mother an office on the whole other end of the building . as for eric , like -- just have a little faith . steffy : faith in what ? wyatt : that he has the ability to see through everything that my mother has up her sleeve . steffy : oh , no , no , no . wyatt : yes , he does . steffy : your mom is too good at her game . i ca n't believe you 're asking me this . wyatt : i 'm just suggesting it . i just -- i think that you 're overestimating my mother , and you 're underestimating eric forrester . this whole thing will work itself out . but the one thing you can not do is let it come between us any more than it already has . come home , steffy . wyatt : come back to me , steffy . this -- this is crazy . steffy : i wo n't argue that . wyatt : i 'll tell you what . come home . i 'll fix you something to eat , and then we can take a walk on the beach and we can figure out our next strategy and -- steffy : wyatt , i -- i ca n't . i ca n't . wyatt : yes , you can . steffy : you do n't understand . your mom has interfered in my life , my business , my home . and she 's not leaving . so i had to . wyatt : leaving me is not the answer here , steffy . steffy : than what is the answer ? wyatt : i -- steffy : look , this is just -- this is too much for me right now . i just -- i need some space . my grandfather 's in way over his head and he does n't even see it . wyatt : your grandfather 's not some mindless old man . you know that , right ? he 's been around the block with women like my mother before . not exactly like my mother , but you know . he 's had his relationships . he 's not helpless . steffy : okay , look . you 're biased , and i do n't blame you for that because she 's your mom . but you know the damage she 's inflicted . i just thought this was all gon na go away , that you 'd be able to fix it . you ca n't . and i 'm starting to realize nobody can ! i did n't want to leave you . i did n't -- i did n't want to leave our home , our life , but -- i ca n't keep doing this anymore . i ca n't . wyatt : so ... how is leaving me gon na fix the problem ? steffy : i do n't -- i do n't know . but it 's my only hope , all right ? but i 've drawn the line . your mom has to leave . but she 's not , so i had to . that does n't mean i do n't love you . of course i love you , wyatt . i 'm married to you . i made a commitment to you , and i keep my commitments . but there was one stipulation . there was one thing i needed from you . quinn was gon na be out of our lives for good . wyatt : and i did n't follow through for you . not yet . because i am -- i am more determined than ever . if time does n't end that relationship , then i will . somehow , i will end it . but we -- we ca n't let this destroy our marriage , steffy . this is not the end for us . eric : you handled that well . i 'm impressed . quinn : pam is still upset with me . and she 's one of many . eric : well , we 'll deal with them all on a case - by - case basis . quinn : there 's ridge and thomas and steffy , not to mention my own son . they 're right . no one wants me here . eric : with one notable exception . quinn : [ sighs ] i do n't want to be a distraction , eric . that 's not what i came here for . i want to -- i want to create , not destroy , but that 's exactly what i 've done to steffy , to wyatt , to their marriage . eric : they will not break up over this . quinn : they 're already living apart . eric : i 'll talk to steffy . and this time , i 'll get through to her . quinn : [ sighs ] eric , that would mean so much to me . thomas : hey , hey . sasha : hi . thomas : how 's the workout going ? sasha : oh , uh , you tell me . thomas : hmm . very , very nice . sasha : thank you . thomas : yeah . zende : [ clears throat ] hey . thomas : hey , hey . what 's up ? zende : your , uh , friend sasha told me about the two of you . thomas : yeah , we 're getting to know each other . i mean , why not ?

[ scene_break ] robin : please , patrick . you ca n't be in here . patrick : really ? that 's the only thing you 're gon na say to me ? i ca n't be in your fancy lab with all your high - tech equipment ? robin : listen to me . you have to leave right now . patrick : robin , i 'm not going anywhere . i came here with sam to get answers , and i 'm definitely not leaving now . robin : okay , but you told me answers that have nothing to do with what 's in this room . what you 're seeking has nothing to do with what 's in here . patrick : what is in this room is the reason why i have n't seen my wife in months , so i 'm not leaving until i get answers . robin : nothing good can come from you being here . please believe me -- not for you , not for sam . patrick : robin , do not tell me what is good for me or for sam . robin : patrick , we can talk about this outside , okay ? patrick : you could n't make a one - hour flight to come to my son 's funeral ? if you did n't think you were important then , you do n't know anything about me anymore . robin : patrick , stop . please ! damn it ! do n't touch anything ! you could kill him ! patrick : is it him ? is the body inside here -- is this jason ? sam : okay , stop ! stop ! back off ! stop it ! [ scene_break ] william : believe me , ms. morgan -- you do not want this to get physical . sam : i know . i know . there 's no need for that . william : oh , no ? seems to me that dr. drake and nurse santiago entered a private facility under false pretenses for who knows what purposes . sam : listen , listen , i 'll tell you everything , okay ? everything . it was nothing criminal , i promise you . william : pretending to be somebody else is hardly legal . sam : please , i 'm sorry . you 're absolutely right . i misled you . i am so sorry . i was afraid that i was gon na come in here and if i really asked for the answers that i would not get them . but i am desperate . i need answers . this is the only place i can find them . [ scene_break ] patrick : so , you got jason in here , do n't you ? robin : patrick , this is n't the place to talk about this . patrick : robin , tell me what is going on or i 'm gon na bust this thing -- robin : do n't . please ! it 's not jason ! patrick : what ? robin : it 's stavros cassadine . and if you open this container , you could set my work back by months , and you could kill him in the process ! patrick : stavros cassadine is alive in here ? so , where 's helena and jason ? are they stashed in some other room somewhere ? robin : i 'm sorry . i ca n't talk about that . patrick : no , robin . i want answers . tell me what is going on . robin : no , jason is n't in there . jason is n't anywhere ... because jason is dead . patrick : jason 's dead ? i thought victor had proof that he was alive . robin : he was , barely , until ... patrick : until what ? robin : well , until i got my hands on him . patrick : what happened , robin ? robin : i thought i was making progress developing this protocol that i believed that would bring jason and the others back from the brink and make them whole again . it seemed to be working , but i did n't think it was ready for human trials . patrick : so , you actually found a way to reverse cryogenic stasis ? robin : i thought i did . and victor kept hounding me for the results . he thought that there was enough preliminary success to test it on a human subject , and he insisted that it was jason , so i began the procedure , and at first , it looked like jason was going to wake up . but then his organs started shutting down , and the decline was sudden and precipitous . i failed him . i did everything that i could , and i still failed jason and every single person that loves him . [ scene_break ] sonny : alice has always been like a force of nature . it 's amazing how something like this could take her down . morgan : okay , can you stop ? i 'm sick of people acting like she 's gone . this is n't over yet . sonny : okay , morgan . i 'm -- you 're right . i should n't count her out . she 's a strong lady . she 's got people who love her who are gon na help her get through this . with you two in her corner , she 's gon na be okay . michael : i mean , we hope so . sonny : if there 's anything i can -- you know , i do n't know if i can do anything for alice , but if i can do anything to make things easier for my sons so you can completely focus on alice -- morgan : okay . yeah . you can , actually . you can actually leave , and you can go back to ava , because you 're not wanted here . sonny : okay , now that you 've brought up ava , there 's something i want to tell you . morgan : no . no . i 'm not doing this . sonny : what do you mean ? morgan : i 'm not doing this -- not here , not with you . so , if you do n't want to leave , that 's fine . i 'll leave . [ scene_break ] olivia : enough about sonny , right ? not everything is about him . ned : do n't tell sonny that . olivia : this day is about you . ned : it is ? olivia : yeah , you and your family . this is for the clan quartermaine . ned : wow . uh , why ? olivia : well , you 're taking care of alice . who 's taking care of you ? i bet none of you have had a proper meal in days . ned : that is too true . olivia : well , you ca n't take care of alice if you 're all running on empty . ned : thank you . this is very sweet . [ sniffs ] smells delicious . olivia : it 's nothing . it 's nothing . it 's what friends do for each other . how is alice ? ned : not good . not good . she 's , uh , getting weaker . if she does n't get a transplant soon , she 's not gon na be strong enough for surgery . a heart became available in baltimore , and monica went down to retrieve it . olivia : but ? ned : but by the time she got down there , the family decided they did n't want to donate the heart after all . so , now we 're back to square one . [ scene_break ] jordan : that was anna devane , and the police have some more questions about mickey 's death . shawn : well , what a coincidence . so do i . [ scene_break ] julian : i am so glad you 're here . you are a sight for sore eyes . what is going on ? alexis : no . julian : what ? alexis : uh , it 's not a good time . julian : for what -- to hold you ? i have n't been able to stop thinking about you . that was absolutely the worst day of my life , when i thought you were in that burning building . but you know what ? i 'm just glad you 're okay . alexis : that makes two of us . julian : look , i know that we agreed to go back to a secret relationship for molly 's sake , but you know what ? you 're here . you came to see me . what ? alexis : it 's not what you think . julian : then what ? alexis : i came to ask this question to your face . did you kill mickey diamond ? [ scene_break ] william : what are these answers that you 're so fired up to get ? sam : okay . you must know you 've caught me red - handed trying to break in to nina clay 's medical records . william : yes , but she is n't even a patient here anymore . i do n't see what you 'd want with them . sam : look , nina supposedly was in a coma for over 20 years , and she got out of a coma , and she claims that she can barely stand , let alone walk , and i just -- i want to know if she 's -- if she 's faking her medical disability . william : you think these files will tell you ? sam : i hope so , or maybe you know . maybe you can tell me . william : as i explained , i was n't here when ms. clay was a patient . sam : okay . well , then , great . the files it is . i guess -- william : would be your best hope , but a real nurse would know that such documents are strictly confidential . it 's against policy at any medical facility to share those records with unauthorized persons . sam : well , is there any way that you could authorize me ? [ scene_break ] robin : before , there was hope for jason . [ sighs ] but now there is none . he 's dead , and ... he 's never coming back . patrick : well , i 'm sorry . robin : so , you understand ? patrick : i understand that it was probably difficult to lose your friend . what i do n't understand is why you 're still here . if jason 's dead , then ... why have n't you come home ? [ scene_break ] michael : [ sighs ] i mean , just sitting here with alice , waiting to hear news , getting our hopes up , then getting disappointed -- it 's just like aj . all over again . and i want to stay positive and everything . it 's just i ca n't help but think it 's gon na end up the same way , you know ? no matter what they do ... [ sighs ] alice is -- is gon na ... die . and morgan is n't ready to face that yet . sonny : it 's , uh , good you 're here for him , you know ? you 're a good brother . michael : thanks . and you 're a good dad , even though he -- he ca n't admit it yet . sonny : i got to go . um ... i do n't want to fight , so i was gon na say something to your brother earlier . michael : oh , yeah . whatever it is , i 'll tell him . sonny : ava 's not living with me anymore . [ scene_break ] olivia : ned , i 'm so sorry about alice . from everything you tell me , she 's a very strong lady , so there 's still hope . ned : maybe so . i just do n't know where to find it . and i should . grandfather would . [ chuckles ] i can just hear him now from up above , growling , `` what 's the matter with you , ned ? get alice what she needs . `` olivia : but , ned , there 's only one solution to this problem , and you ca n't just create a heart out of sheer force of will . that 's up to god or fate or -- ned : no , grandfather would say that 's hogwash . it 's my job to look after the family . it 's my job to figure something out . olivia : [ sighs ] ned : [ sighs ] olivia : you do n't have to buy in to that . and you are not your grandfather . ned : [ sighs ] yeah . that 's never been more clear . i 'll never be the man he was . and my family 's all the poorer for it . olivia : oh , come here . [ scene_break ] julian : i do n't know what you 're talking about . i do n't know who this mickey diamond is . alexis : you 're seriously gon na do this right now ? it 's all over your damn paper . that mobster that was shot by jordan ashford -- you know , that lovely woman that works at your gallery . julian : i ca n't say that i 'm surprised that jordan got herself in trouble . i mean , she 's always lived on the edge of the knife . you know , maybe she 'll learn something from this . alexis : what , that she should n't meet a strange man in his hotel room or that she should n't cover for you ? julian : i seriously do not know what you 're getting at . jordan works at the gallery . alexis : i do n't think jordan ashford killed mickey diamond . i think you did it in retaliation for what he did to me . [ scene_break ] shawn : you could have been hurt , if not worse . jordan : well , as you can see , i 'm fine . shawn : well , maybe on the surface . but it 's no easy thing killing a man -- especially one that you acted like you had feelings for . jordan : who says i was acting ? shawn : i do , because i know the difference . see , you were playing around with mickey , but it was a real thing when we kissed . i know it , and so do you . you want me . and i want you . and you wanted to leave with me that night , but you said otherwise . now , i did n't believe it then , and i do n't believe it now . so , why do n't you tell me what the hell is really going on ? [ scene_break ] sam : look , i 'm just asking you to keep your back turned , just like it is . give me two minutes . let me take a look . i 'm sure there 's something i can offer you in return . william : what do you have in mind ? [ scene_break ] patrick : robin , why have you not come home ? is victor holding you against your will here ? robin : no , it 's not like that . patrick : what is he doing ? is he forcing you to continue your research to bring helena and stavros back from the dead ? because if he is , i 'm gon na do whatever i can to stop him . robin : patrick , you do n't know what you 're talking about . patrick : then what is it ? what is he holding over you ? what , is he threatening me ? is he threatening emma ? robin , we 'll get your mom and dad . we 'll do whatever we can to -- robin : stop it , okay ? i mean , do you see a cage ? do you see bars ? do you see handcuffs on my hand ? no . no , nobody is forcing me to be here or threatening anybody , okay ? i 'm here because i want to be here . patrick : you told me that you were leaving us to save jason 's life because nobody else could do it . you preached that you wanted to be a good example for emma to help people when you had the opportunity . so , i do n't understand . jason 's gone , yet -- yet you 're still here , away from your family , trying to revive two maniacs that are better off dead . robin : it 's not just about helena and stavros , okay ? it 's about all of the other people that my research will help . patrick : come on . do n't -- do n't give me that . robin : no , you come on . you 're a doctor , too . i mean , could you honestly walk away from this if you were on the brink of unlocking the secrets of life and death ? i mean , this treatment could revolutionize medicine forever . patrick : do you honestly expect me to believe that that 's the reason why you 're not coming home ? come on . i think i know you well enough to know that there 's something else going on , so quit the crap and tell me what it is . [ scene_break ] sam : you see , i am actually a very , very wealthy woman . my husband , jason , died about a year and a half ago -- william : is your sob story supposed to win me over ? sam : no , no , no , no . my point is he left me access to tons of money , and it would make me very happy if you helped me out . william : you 're saying you 're gon na pay me if i let you see those records ? sam : oh , yeah . i 'm gon na pay you . you 're gon na have lots of money . if you play your cards right , i can really fatten your wallet . william : i 'd rather you fatten something else instead . [ scene_break ] julian : i do n't get it . where is all this mickey stuff coming from ? alexis : well , i started to piece things together with a very illuminating conversation i had with my friend ned , who has a friend in the hospital who needs a heart transplant . so , ned told me all about the potential donor -- a man named mickey diamond ... you know , the man that got shot at the metro court ... right after ... you stood there with me and watched my house burn down . and then after you saw that we were all okay , you just took off , and then you came back and you said the matter had been taken care of . julian : okay . so , what makes you think that i have anything to do with shooting -- alexis : stop it , stop it , stop it ! you 're lying to me , and i know it ! [ scene_break ] jordan : there 's no mystery . i have nothing to hide . i mean , i was there to spend the evening with mickey . he got pushy and physical . i did n't like it . i told him to stop , and he would n't , you know , escalating things to the point where i was forced to protect myself . that 's it . that 's the story . shawn : sounds plausible . jordan : well -- well , thank you so much for deciding to believe me . shawn : you know , only i , uh -- i do n't think that 's it at all . [ scene_break ] michael : thanks , grandmother , for the update . um ... i love you . i 'll talk to you soon . all right , bye . morgan : what is it ? michael : [ sighs ] uh , that was my grandmother . the family in baltimore changed their mind . they do n't want to donate the man 's heart . morgan : what ? but what do you mean ? how can -- how can they even do that ? michael : i do n't know . i do n't know . but it 's their right to say no . morgan : so -- so , we 're just -- we 're back to square one ? michael : yeah . looks that way . morgan : ohh . is alice still asleep ? michael : yeah . yeah . she 's still asleep . morgan : what about dad ? did he leave ? michael : yeah . um ... there was something dad wanted me to tell you . morgan : do n't . i do n't even want to hear it . michael : no , i think you do . um ... ava 's not living with dad anymore . [ scene_break ] ned : i am so sorry . i , uh -- i promise you i 'm not usually like this . olivia : like what ? ned , nobody wants to feel helpless when someone they love is in trouble . [ sighs ] i mean , i would be more worried if you were -- if you were unaffected . ned : i just feel like if i could just ... think straight i could figure something out and figure out a way to help alice . and grandfather never wasted time feeling sorry for himself . he used to always say , `` ned , stop wringing your hands . take action . `` olivia : ned , i knew your grandfather a little bit , and he was a great man and he was a tough old bird , but he was not a god . and you may not be his spitting image , but as far as i can tell , you are every bit his equal , and you will do no worse for your family than he would have done . in fact , i think you 'll even do better because you let people see how much you care . ned : thank you . i 'm lucky to have you in my corner . and if you think i helped you out the other day , believe me -- you really helped me out today . [ scene_break ] morgan : so , ava -- she -- she moved out ? michael : yeah . that 's what dad was trying to tell you before . morgan : did he say , uh , when or why ? i mean , i -- michael : no . i think that was something he wanted to tell you in person . but you kind of stormed off before he had a chance to -- morgan : okay , mikey . stop . if you 're gon na tell me this is where i 'm being unfair to dad , just do n't even say it , please . michael : look , morgan , i get that you 're angry with dad , and i do n't blame you . you have every right . morgan : yeah , you 're damn right i have every right to be mad at him . michael : but if there was ever a time to cease fire , this would be it -- even a temporary one . i mean , come on . somebody we love is dying . morgan : alice is n't going to die , michael . michael : we 're losing her , okay ? we both know it . so does dad . he wanted to show us his support . morgan : oh , he did ? because i thought that he was coming here to tell me that he 's not shacked up with my girlfriend anymore , which does n't make a difference because he still screwed her , she 's still pregnant , and she 's still having a kid that 's going to be my kid or my sibling . michael : okay , i know . dad hates that he hurt you . he 'd do anything to fix this . morgan : well , he ca n't . okay ? michael : well , he 's gon na keep trying , regardless , like he tried today . he 's absorbing everything that you 're dishing out at him , and he keeps coming back for more . that 's how much he loves you . we 're family , okay ? that 's not gon na change . now , i - i came to love aj like a father , and it hurt dad . i know it did . but he never made me choose between them . i mean , he even came to the funeral of a man that he hated because i asked him to , because he knew that i needed him there that day . morgan : i mean , yeah , michael . he crawls on broken glass for you . michael : and dad crawls on broken glass for you , too , morgan . you know that . [ inhales deeply ] just do n't give up on him , 'cause he 's not gon na give up on you , no matter what . [ scene_break ] sonny : [ clears throat ] olivia : oh , hello , sonny . i did n't see you there . i 'm sure you know ned . sonny : yeah . yeah . we know each other . olivia : we were just talking . sonny : yeah , yeah . i could see that . sorry about alice , ned . i hope she hangs in there long enough to find a heart , you know ? ned : thank you . sonny : give my regards to lois . [ scene_break ] olivia : [ sighs ] i can explain . shawn : why do n't you tell me the real reason why you were in mickey 's hotel room ? and you can please stop with the bull about you wanting him , because i 'm never gon na believe that . jordan : okay . fine . fine . you want to hear it ? shawn : yeah . jordan : i went to mickey to get ahead . yeah . see , with julian out of the game , i saw an opportunity to move up the ladder , and i took it . shawn : so , this was all about career advancement ? jordan : well , you 're right about one thing . i did n't want mickey . i did n't go to that hotel room to get off . i went for power . i wanted to give him what he wanted from me so that i can get what i wanted from him in return . is that -- is that -- is that good enough for you ? shawn : so , tj was right all along ? you never got out ? jordan : that 's right . that 's right . i 'm in the same dirty business as you . there . i said it . you can go now . shawn : no , i 'm not going anywhere . jordan : is this fun for you ... this dance that we play , where we just -- we bring out the worst in each other ? shawn : no . i just want , at this point , for us to be honest . jordan : you want honesty ? okay . i felt something for you . i still feel it . and with all the regret and bad choices ... shawn : mm - hmm ? jordan : ... and wishing things could be different , nothing -- nothing 's gon na kill that feeling . nothing . [ scene_break ] alexis : i 'm sick and tired of you lying to me , so stop doing it . and do n't say to me that you did n't know mickey diamond , because i know that you did . julian : what are you talking about ? alexis : i met him at the hospital . i did n't know it at the time , but i know it now . julian : you spoke to this guy ? alexis : he approached me . he came up to me and told me that he was a business associate of yours . and i said , `` well , he may have been a business associate , but he 's certainly not now because he left . `` well , the joke was on me , because shortly after that , my house burned down . so , did mickey diamond just want your attention , and did you shoot him because of what he did to my house ? julian : you 're damn right i did . [ scene_break ] sam : excuse me ? william : i 'm open to a cash payment , but you 're gon na need to sweeten the deal with a little one - on - one time . you 're an attractive woman . you said you were willing to be generous , right ? sam : you 're talking about sex . william : hell , yeah , i 'm talking about sex . i will give you access to nina clay 's files . you can have access to all the files you want . there 's plenty of crazy stuff in there on all kinds of people . but if you want the goods , you 've got to give something in return . hmm ? how 'bout it ? [ scene_break ] patrick : spell it out for me , okay ? the reason why you left me and emma and broke up your family was to save your friend . now tell me the reason why you 're still staying here is to continue your research . robin : patrick ... patrick : tell me . i want to hear it . robin : yes . the reason i 'm staying here is because my research could help millions of people . anyone with an incurable illness could be in frozen stasis until a cure could be found . i mean ... patrick : and that possibility is more important than your family ? robin : patrick , i have to try . i 'm a doctor . i - i have a responsibility . patrick : this is like a bad joke . it would be funny if it was n't so sad . robin : [ sighs ] it 's not a joke . patrick : you know , i thought maybe your mother was right -- maybe i had to try harder to get you home or maybe it was ptsd . but now -- now it 's just so clear that your research is more important than us , so there 's really nothing else that i can do to get through to you . robin : patrick , wait . i know that i 've hurt you and emma . and i know that this is completely unfair and completely horrible to ask . can you please just give me more time ? patrick : time for what ? we ca n't go back . so , i do n't know . i mean ... honestly , the only thing left for me is -- is to get a divorce . robin : i do n't agree . i think that you found me here for a reason . something brought you here . patrick : yeah . well , i just wish it was a reason that brought our family together and that did n't end it . robin : what do you mean ? patrick : well , if you believe in fate , if you believe that i 'm here for a reason , then i guess the only way i see it is that i know where to send the divorce papers now . [ scene_break ] olivia : i do n't know what came over me , violating you like that . ned : violating ? uh , that might be a bit of an overstatement , do n't you think ? olivia : no , i - i do n't . you 're here going through hell over alice , and i 'm climbing all over you like a jungle gym . i do n't know what 's wrong with me . ned : olivia , it 's no big deal . olivia : oh , yeah , it 's a big deal to me ! that -- kissing you like that -- that was not even remotely appropriate . i do n't know what i was thinking . ned : oh . i know what you were thinking . you wanted to stick it to sonny . to be honest , i 'm happy to oblige . thanks again for the food . i 'd better get back to my family . olivia : of course . ned : take care , olivia . olivia : yeah . i hope everything works out . ned : i do , too . [ scene_break ] alexis : you admit you shot mickey diamond ? julian : yeah . i did it for you and for everyone else i care about . i 'm not gon na let these people attack my family without retaliating in kind . they already shot my son before my very eyes , and he almost died . i refuse to let anyone else i care about get hurt or worse . i will kill anyone who tries to harm my family . can you understand that ? alexis : i actually can . what i ca n't understand is if you shot mickey diamond , why did jordan ashford confess to it ? [ scene_break ] michael : morgan , she has the right to know the truth . ned : we put this off as long as we can , okay ? we have to tell her what 's going on ... and prepare to say goodbye . [ scene_break ] william : how about we slip into the janitor 's closet and , you know , make that trade ? sam : um ... how 'bout not ? [ knees william in the groin ] william : ohh !

[ scene_break ] robin : wait . no matter what you think of me ... i love you , and i always will . patrick : goodbye . good luck with your corpses .
sam asks william at crichton - clark about nina clay 's condition . she offers to pay him if he helps her . he wants more than money in return . she knees him in the groin . patrick takes robin 's key card and goes into the restricted room where he finds the cryogenic lab and demands to know if the body in the chamber is jason . she says it is stavros cassadine in the chamber and that jason is dead . he wants know why she has n't come home if jason is dead . she says she has chosen to stay to complete her research . he says the only thing left to do is divorce her . she says she still loves him and always will . he tells her goodbye and bids her good luck with her corpses . patrick and sam run into each other outside the restricted door .

[ scene_break ] michael : you need a break ? i can take the next watch . morgan : no . alice is beat . she just wants some time to herself right now . michael : i wonder if she 'd feel that way if she knew how much trouble she 's in . morgan : okay . michael , alice is gon na be fine . michael : she needs to know what she 's facing . morgan : okay . you know what tracy said . she does n't want to know . michael : what if she 's dying ? morgan : okay , it 's alice 's call . i respect that . i trust that you 're gon na respect that , too . plus , michael , i mean , what 's even the point ? what are we gon na say to her ? what -- we 're gon na tell her that if she does n't get the heart transplant right now that she 's gon na die ? i mean , she 's not stupid . she knows things are bad . plus , monica 's working on that heart . it 's gon na come through . michael : yeah , i hope so . i do . it 's just ... we need to be realistic . morgan : look , alice is going to make it . we 're not gon na let her go . no more death , no more loss . we 've lost enough people already .

[ scene_break ] ned : olivia , what are you doing here -- are you okay ? olivia : oh , i am ... right as rain . i 'm fully recovered from the brutal effects of possibly the worst hangover i have had since my days of clubbing in manhattan with lois . ned : that bad , huh ? olivia : i owe you a huge debt of gratitude and a very big apology . ned : hey , you do n't have anything to apologize for . olivia : no , i do . i do , ned . i was a nasty , ugly , messy drunk , and i had no business pouring my junk out all over you like that . and you -- and you listened to me . you kept me out of trouble , and you really made me feel better . if i remember properly , you kept me from adopting the entire stray- animal population of port charles . ned : yeah , it took all i had to wrestle that phone out of your hand . you got quite a grip . you know that ? olivia : yeah . maybe that 's my biggest problem . i do n't know when to let go . anyway , thank you very much , really . ned : what are friends for , right ? olivia : friends . i like that . at least one good thing came out of my miserable breakup with sonny .

[ scene_break ] jordan : i 'll call you back . julian : no , no , no , no . we 're not done . i need to know that our stories are straight and that i 'm not gon na get arrested , so what exactly did you tell the cops ? jordan : there 's nothing to worry about . i have a customer . goodbye . shawn : trouble with the boss ?

[ scene_break ] patrick : so , you got jason in here , do n't you ? robin : patrick , this is n't the place to talk about this . patrick : robin , tell me what is going on or i 'm gon na bust this thing -- robin : do n't . please ! it 's not jason ! patrick : what ? robin : it 's stavros cassadine . and if you open this container , you could set my work back by months , and you could kill him in the process ! patrick : stavros cassadine is alive in here ? so , where 's helena and jason ? are they stashed in some other room somewhere ? robin : i 'm sorry . i ca n't talk about that . patrick : no , robin . i want answers . tell me what is going on . robin : no , jason is n't in there . jason is n't anywhere ... because jason is dead . patrick : jason 's dead ? i thought victor had proof that he was alive . robin : he was , barely , until ... patrick : until what ? robin : well , until i got my hands on him . patrick : what happened , robin ? robin : i thought i was making progress developing this protocol that i believed that would bring jason and the others back from the brink and make them whole again . it seemed to be working , but i did n't think it was ready for human trials . patrick : so , you actually found a way to reverse cryogenic stasis ? robin : i thought i did . and victor kept hounding me for the results . he thought that there was enough preliminary success to test it on a human subject , and he insisted that it was jason , so i began the procedure , and at first , it looked like jason was going to wake up . but then his organs started shutting down , and the decline was sudden and precipitous . i failed him . i did everything that i could , and i still failed jason and every single person that loves him . [ scene_break ] sonny : alice has always been like a force of nature . it 's amazing how something like this could take her down . morgan : okay , can you stop ? i 'm sick of people acting like she 's gone . this is n't over yet . sonny : okay , morgan . i 'm -- you 're right . i should n't count her out . she 's a strong lady . she 's got people who love her who are gon na help her get through this . with you two in her corner , she 's gon na be okay . michael : i mean , we hope so . sonny : if there 's anything i can -- you know , i do n't know if i can do anything for alice , but if i can do anything to make things easier for my sons so you can completely focus on alice -- morgan : okay . yeah . you can , actually . you can actually leave , and you can go back to ava , because you 're not wanted here . sonny : okay , now that you 've brought up ava , there 's something i want to tell you . morgan : no . no . i 'm not doing this . sonny : what do you mean ? morgan : i 'm not doing this -- not here , not with you . so , if you do n't want to leave , that 's fine . i 'll leave . [ scene_break ] olivia : enough about sonny , right ? not everything is about him . ned : do n't tell sonny that . olivia : this day is about you . ned : it is ? olivia : yeah , you and your family . this is for the clan quartermaine . ned : wow . uh , why ? olivia : well , you 're taking care of alice . who 's taking care of you ? i bet none of you have had a proper meal in days . ned : that is too true . olivia : well , you ca n't take care of alice if you 're all running on empty . ned : thank you . this is very sweet . [ sniffs ] smells delicious . olivia : it 's nothing . it 's nothing . it 's what friends do for each other . how is alice ? ned : not good . not good . she 's , uh , getting weaker . if she does n't get a transplant soon , she 's not gon na be strong enough for surgery . a heart became available in baltimore , and monica went down to retrieve it . olivia : but ? ned : but by the time she got down there , the family decided they did n't want to donate the heart after all . so , now we 're back to square one .

[ scene_break ] william : what are these answers that you 're so fired up to get ? sam : okay . you must know you 've caught me red - handed trying to break in to nina clay 's medical records . william : yes , but she is n't even a patient here anymore . i do n't see what you 'd want with them . sam : look , nina supposedly was in a coma for over 20 years , and she got out of a coma , and she claims that she can barely stand , let alone walk , and i just -- i want to know if she 's -- if she 's faking her medical disability . william : you think these files will tell you ? sam : i hope so , or maybe you know . maybe you can tell me . william : as i explained , i was n't here when ms. clay was a patient . sam : okay . well , then , great . the files it is . i guess -- william : would be your best hope , but a real nurse would know that such documents are strictly confidential . it 's against policy at any medical facility to share those records with unauthorized persons . sam : well , is there any way that you could authorize me ? [ scene_break ] robin : before , there was hope for jason . [ sighs ] but now there is none . he 's dead , and ... he 's never coming back . patrick : well , i 'm sorry . robin : so , you understand ? patrick : i understand that it was probably difficult to lose your friend . what i do n't understand is why you 're still here . if jason 's dead , then ... why have n't you come home ? [ scene_break ] michael : [ sighs ] i mean , just sitting here with alice , waiting to hear news , getting our hopes up , then getting disappointed -- it 's just like aj . all over again . and i want to stay positive and everything . it 's just i ca n't help but think it 's gon na end up the same way , you know ? no matter what they do ... [ sighs ] alice is -- is gon na ... die . and morgan is n't ready to face that yet . sonny : it 's , uh , good you 're here for him , you know ? you 're a good brother . michael : thanks . and you 're a good dad , even though he -- he ca n't admit it yet . sonny : i got to go . um ... i do n't want to fight , so i was gon na say something to your brother earlier . michael : oh , yeah . whatever it is , i 'll tell him . sonny : ava 's not living with me anymore . [ scene_break ] olivia : ned , i 'm so sorry about alice . from everything you tell me , she 's a very strong lady , so there 's still hope . ned : maybe so . i just do n't know where to find it . and i should . grandfather would .

[ scene_break ] julian : i do n't know what you 're talking about . i do n't know who this mickey diamond is . alexis : you 're seriously gon na do this right now ? it 's all over your damn paper . that mobster that was shot by jordan ashford -- you know , that lovely woman that works at your gallery . julian : i ca n't say that i 'm surprised that jordan got herself in trouble . i mean , she 's always lived on the edge of the knife . you know , maybe she 'll learn something from this . alexis : what , that she should n't meet a strange man in his hotel room or that she should n't cover for you ? julian : i seriously do not know what you 're getting at . jordan works at the gallery . alexis : i do n't think jordan ashford killed mickey diamond . i think you did it in retaliation for what he did to me . [ scene_break ] shawn : you could have been hurt , if not worse . jordan : well , as you can see , i 'm fine . shawn : well , maybe on the surface . but it 's no easy thing killing a man -- especially one that you acted like you had feelings for . jordan : who says i was acting ? shawn : i do , because i know the difference . see , you were playing around with mickey , but it was a real thing when we kissed . i know it , and so do you . you want me . and i want you . and you wanted to leave with me that night , but you said otherwise . now , i did n't believe it then , and i do n't believe it now . so , why do n't you tell me what the hell is really going on ? [ scene_break ] sam : look , i 'm just asking you to keep your back turned , just like it is . give me two minutes . let me take a look . i 'm sure there 's something i can offer you in return . william : what do you have in mind ? [ scene_break ] patrick : robin , why have you not come home ? is victor holding you against your will here ? robin : no , it 's not like that . patrick : what is he doing ? is he forcing you to continue your research to bring helena and stavros back from the dead ? because if he is , i 'm gon na do whatever i can to stop him . robin : patrick , you do n't know what you 're talking about . patrick : then what is it ? what is he holding over you ? what , is he threatening me ? is he threatening emma ? robin , we 'll get your mom and dad . we 'll do whatever we can to -- robin : stop it , okay ? i mean , do you see a cage ? do you see bars ? do you see handcuffs on my hand ? no . no , nobody is forcing me to be here or threatening anybody , okay ? i 'm here because i want to be here . patrick : you told me that you were leaving us to save jason 's life because nobody else could do it . you preached that you wanted to be a good example for emma to help people when you had the opportunity . so , i do n't understand . jason 's gone , yet -- yet you 're still here , away from your family , trying to revive two maniacs that are better off dead . robin : it 's not just about helena and stavros , okay ? it 's about all of the other people that my research will help . patrick : come on . do n't -- do n't give me that . robin : no , you come on . you 're a doctor , too . i mean , could you honestly walk away from this if you were on the brink of unlocking the secrets of life and death ? i mean , this treatment could revolutionize medicine forever . patrick : do you honestly expect me to believe that that 's the reason why you 're not coming home ? come on . i think i know you well enough to know that there 's something else going on , so quit the crap and tell me what it is . [ scene_break ] sam : you see , i am actually a very , very wealthy woman . my husband , jason , died about a year and a half ago -- william : is your sob story supposed to win me over ? sam : no , no , no , no . my point is he left me access to tons of money , and it would make me very happy if you helped me out . william : you 're saying you 're gon na pay me if i let you see those records ? sam : oh , yeah . i 'm gon na pay you . you 're gon na have lots of money . if you play your cards right , i can really fatten your wallet . william : i 'd rather you fatten something else instead . [ scene_break ] julian : i do n't get it . where is all this mickey stuff coming from ? alexis : well , i started to piece things together with a very illuminating conversation i had with my friend ned , who has a friend in the hospital who needs a heart transplant . so , ned told me all about the potential donor -- a man named mickey diamond ... you know , the man that got shot at the metro court ... right after ... you stood there with me and watched my house burn down . and then after you saw that we were all okay , you just took off , and then you came back and you said the matter had been taken care of . julian : okay . so , what makes you think that i have anything to do with shooting -- alexis : stop it , stop it , stop it ! you 're lying to me , and i know it ! [ scene_break ] jordan : there 's no mystery . i have nothing to hide . i mean , i was there to spend the evening with mickey . he got pushy and physical . i did n't like it . i told him to stop , and he would n't , you know , escalating things to the point where i was forced to protect myself . that 's it . that 's the story . shawn : sounds plausible . jordan : well -- well , thank you so much for deciding to believe me . shawn : you know , only i , uh -- i do n't think that 's it at all . [ scene_break ] michael : thanks , grandmother , for the update . um ... i love you . i 'll talk to you soon . all right , bye . morgan : what is it ? michael : [ sighs ] uh , that was my grandmother . the family in baltimore changed their mind . they do n't want to donate the man 's heart . morgan : what ? but what do you mean ? how can -- how can they even do that ? michael : i do n't know . i do n't know . but it 's their right to say no . morgan : so -- so , we 're just -- we 're back to square one ? michael : yeah . looks that way . morgan : ohh . is alice still asleep ? michael : yeah . yeah . she 's still asleep . morgan : what about dad ? did he leave ? michael : yeah . um ... there was something dad wanted me to tell you . morgan : do n't . i do n't even want to hear it . michael : no , i think you do . um ... ava 's not living with dad anymore . [ scene_break ] ned : i am so sorry . i , uh -- i promise you i 'm not usually like this . olivia : like what ? ned , nobody wants to feel helpless when someone they love is in trouble . [ sighs ] i mean , i would be more worried if you were -- if you were unaffected . ned : i just feel like if i could just ... think straight i could figure something out and figure out a way to help alice . and grandfather never wasted time feeling sorry for himself . he used to always say , `` ned , stop wringing your hands . take action . `` olivia : ned , i knew your grandfather a little bit , and he was a great man and he was a tough old bird , but he was not a god . and you may not be his spitting image , but as far as i can tell , you are every bit his equal , and you will do no worse for your family than he would have done . in fact , i think you 'll even do better because you let people see how much you care . ned : thank you . i 'm lucky to have you in my corner . and if you think i helped you out the other day , believe me -- you really helped me out today . [ scene_break ] morgan : so , ava -- she -- she moved out ? michael : yeah . that 's what dad was trying to tell you before . morgan : did he say , uh , when or why ? i mean , i -- michael : no . i think that was something he wanted to tell you in person . but you kind of stormed off before he had a chance to -- morgan : okay , mikey . stop . if you 're gon na tell me this is where i 'm being unfair to dad , just do n't even say it , please . michael : look , morgan , i get that you 're angry with dad , and i do n't blame you . you have every right . morgan : yeah , you 're damn right i have every right to be mad at him . michael : but if there was ever a time to cease fire , this would be it -- even a temporary one . i mean , come on . somebody we love is dying . morgan : alice is n't going to die , michael . michael : we 're losing her , okay ? we both know it . so does dad . he wanted to show us his support . morgan : oh , he did ? because i thought that he was coming here to tell me that he 's not shacked up with my girlfriend anymore , which does n't make a difference because he still screwed her , she 's still pregnant , and she 's still having a kid that 's going to be my kid or my sibling . michael : okay , i know . dad hates that he hurt you . he 'd do anything to fix this . morgan : well , he ca n't . okay ? michael : well , he 's gon na keep trying , regardless , like he tried today . he 's absorbing everything that you 're dishing out at him , and he keeps coming back for more . that 's how much he loves you . we 're family , okay ? that 's not gon na change . now , i - i came to love aj like a father , and it hurt dad . i know it did . but he never made me choose between them . i mean , he even came to the funeral of a man that he hated because i asked him to , because he knew that i needed him there that day . morgan : i mean , yeah , michael . he crawls on broken glass for you . michael : and dad crawls on broken glass for you , too , morgan . you know that . [ inhales deeply ] just do n't give up on him , 'cause he 's not gon na give up on you , no matter what .

hmm ? you got to get better . and quick , okay ? we still have so much to look forward to . chelsea : [ sighs ] sharon : we , uh , we hope that nick understands that we would like to see christian , as well . dylan : that might not be possible . sharon : well , he needs to make that possible . we love that little boy in there . we 're standing out here like we 're strangers . no ! chelsea : i know this is hard for you . i really do . but the fact is , you 're already in violation of the restraining order . sharon : faith called me in a panic , chelsea . she was terrified for her little brother . what were we supposed to do ? say , `` thanks for letting us know , honey . we hope that works out `` ? chelsea : no , of course not . i think it was -- it was smart of you guys to come here , actually . i really do . i 'm just saying if you push this , nick will have every legal right to call security . dylan : that 's true . sharon : he can call whoever he wants . i 'm not leaving . not until i know christian 's okay . nick : that 's my guy . you 're my guy , right ? you 're gon na be just fine . i promise . i promise . mariah : we had an agreement , hilary . hilary : an agreement which i stuck to . mariah : on what planet ? ! hilary : i gave dylan a chance to tell his side of the story , did n't i ? mariah : you know it does n't count if you completely twist his words , right ? ! hilary : oh , but they 're still his words . mariah : sliced and diced by you to turn everything he said into a complete lie ! and what 's even worse , it 's completely warped and a total slam to my mom ! hilary : i 'm sorry if you 're disappointed . mariah : yeah , no , you 're not . and disappointed does n't even begin to cover it ! do you have any idea what this will do to my family ? there are innocent children involved , hilary . hilary : you think that i was unfair because i did n't go with dylan 's slanted version ? mariah : it 's not slanted ! it 's his ! it 's his experience , which is what you asked for ! hilary : well , how do you think nick newman would feel about that ? mariah : you know what ? if nick wants to tell his side of the story , by all means , invite him on the show . but this , what you did , it is out of line , and you know it . re - edit the interview before it airs . wait . w - what did you just do ? hilary : it 's called an executive decision . the show will air as planned with my edits . mariah : you selfish , manipulative bitch ! devon : hey , hey , hey , hey ! knock it off ! kevin : i 'm sorry if i overstepped . chloe : well , it 's an invasion of my privacy , kevin . kevin : privacy ? it 's your closet . i do n't understand . what are you looking for ? chloe : i am looking to see what you packed since i did n't give you permission . kevin : i was trying to help ! bella was taking a nap . i had time on my hands . i thought the goal was to get you out of here as soon as possible . chloe : well , i 'm sorry . i do n't like people going through my stuff . i 'm particular like that . kevin : since when ? ! our bedroom used to look like a tornado hit it ! i would wade through your junk all the time ! chloe : okay , yeah , i get it . kevin : well , i don't . chloe : well , i used to be an unorganized slob , and now i 'm not . kevin : chloe . chloe ! chloe : what ? ! kevin : i think there 's something else going on here . i think there 's something in your closet you do n't want me to find , and i think i know what it is -- bella 's father . chloe : [ scoffs ] chloe : [ chuckles ] oh , god . kevin : it 's not funny . chloe : hmm . i think it is . i think it 's very funny , actually , to think that i 'm hiding a human being in my closet . i mean , like i could -- kevin : the identity of bella 's father . you knew what i meant . chloe : yeah . yeah , i did . kevin : okay , so what do you have stashed up there that you do n't want me to see ? chloe : [ sighs ] kevin : letters ? a picture ? a birth certificate with his name on it ? chloe : why are you obsessing about this ? kevin : i 'm not ! i had n't even though about it , hand to god , until you freaked out ! chloe : [ scoffs ] i 'm not freaking out , and i think i know a little about freaking out . kevin : that is not funny . i thought you wanted to move in with me . chloe : i do . kevin : maybe you think you do but you don't . maybe i jumped the gun . chloe : kevin , no -- kevin : no , maybe this was more about you cooling things off with chelsea than about you wanting to live with me , and -- and maybe now you feel backed into a corner . chloe : kevin , stop . it 's -- kevin : okay , look . be honest with me . we 've come too far to keep things from each other . chloe : i agree . kevin : okay , good . so here 's where i stand . when you said that you wanted to live with me , i took that as a major step forward , an opportunity for us to be a family again -- you , me , and bella . but if that 's not what you want , if that 's not how you see your future , then you have to tell me . now . devon : would you guys like to tell me what the hell is going on ? mariah : i thought my description of your wife was very clear , actually . devon : no , it was inappropriate , actually , especially in the workplace . hilary : thank you . devon : but i want to know what incited it . mariah : oh , well , hilary sandbagged dylan 's interview after the fact . devon : and what does that mean ? mariah : [ chuckles ] it means she changed his take on everything , edited the piece to make it look like dylan came here to throw sharon under the bus , which we all know was the exact opposite of what he wanted to do . devon : is that true ? hilary : it was a snoozefest , devon , okay ? i just -- i made the piece a little more interesting , and ... mariah : the truth was a snoozefest , so you livened it up with lies . so much for turning over a new leaf . clearly you learned nothing from your charitable thanksgiving episode . hilary : [ scoffs ] i have learned plenty , honey , including the fact that my husband only keeps you on staff to be my watchdog . oh , yeah . i know all about that . sharon : i refuse to let a piece of paper keep me from being here for my -- for christian . i need to know that he 's okay ! chelsea : i understand , but -- sharon : do you really understand , chelsea ? you keep saying that , but what if this were connor ? chelsea : it 's not the same , sharon , at all . sharon : no , it 's not , because you 're still with the little boy that you raised from birth . dylan : hey , come on . it 's okay . sharon : no , it 's not . it 's not okay ! nothing 's okay ! chelsea : i understand that you want to be in that room . i really , really do . but barging in there right now , it 's only gon na be a bad thing for the both of you . sharon : i do n't care . the only thing that matters right now is christian and that he 's healthy . dylan : and i think that 's something we can all agree on . chelsea : absolutely . faith : mommy ! sharon : baby , hi ! sweetheart , how are you ? faith : [ sobbing ] i 'm scared ! sharon : oh , my goodness , baby . you know what ? we 're all scared , too , but your brother , he 's gon na be fine . everything 's gon na be okay . faith : i 'm so sorry . sharon : what do you have to be sorry about ? faith : i saw the strawberries in the bowl . i should have said something to leah , but i was n't thinking . i did n't know he 'd get so sick , mommy . sharon : of course you didn't . it 's okay . hey , listen to me . this is not your fault . it 's not your job to look after him and make sure he 's safe . you 're not the parent . faith : i still feel like it 's my fault . sharon : okay , well , it 's not , all right ? this was an accident . no one 's to blame , you hear me ? especially not you . faith : i 'm really glad you 're here . sharon : me , too . stitch : nick ? nick : yeah ? okay . here , little buddy . i 'm gon na go right outside , okay ? i 'll be back . dylan : how do the test results look ? stitch : christian is fine . chelsea : oh , thank god . nick : really ? stitch : no markers indicating otherwise . sharon : thank you . stitch : given his reaction was stronger this time , you need to be vigilant when it comes to strawberries . nick : yeah , uh , now that i know , i 'll make sure he steers clear . chelsea : so can he go home now ? stitch : i 'd like to keep him under observation a little longer , make 100 % sure it 's out of his system . dylan : that sounds good . sharon : it 's better safe than sorry . nick : come on . let 's go see your little brother . stitch : i 'm sorry , mac . immediate family only . [ door closes ] `` the young and the restless `` will continue . kevin : just be straight with me . i promise i 'm not gon na break -- much . are you getting cold feet ? chloe : my feet are the temperature they 're supposed to be . here . you want to feel them ? kevin : you are not gon na joke or charm your way out of this . chloe : what 's with all the pressure ? kevin : what pressure ? have i demanded to know bella 's bio - dad 's name ? no . have i investigated him at work , which i could so easily do , and find out his identity in like a second ? chloe : and you wouldn't . kevin : no , i would n't , because that would be invading your privacy for real . chloe , i 'm not trying to make you do anything you do n't want to do . that 's why we 're having this conversation . if moving into my place is gon na make you uncomfortable -- chloe : it 's a big step . kevin : yes , it is . chloe : but i 'm not doing it out of convenience . i would never uproot my child 's life just to make it easier for me . okay ? i ... i just want a home for us . a real one . kevin : but something is stopping you . that was clear the second you walked in and saw those boxes . whatever it is , tell me . i can handle it . chloe : okay . okay , i 'll tell you . devon : [ sighs ] hey , can i talk to you in private ? hilary : private ? like you and mariah ? and do n't you even try to deny it because i heard you on the phone with her . for a spy , you 're pretty pathetic , by the way . mariah : thanks . hilary : how dare you ask her to keep tabs on me ? it is an insult on every level . mariah : but oh , so necessary . i tried , devon . really , really i did , but clearly she ca n't help herself . i guess garbage and filth are , like , your natural habitat or something . hilary : you want to talk about habitat , you snake ? ! devon : hey , stop it , stop it . can you give us a second , please ? mariah : but i 'm having so much fun . devon : please . [ sighs ] hilary : i can not believe that my own husband ca n't trust me to be professional . i 'm not a child , devon . i do n't need you to keep tabs on me . devon : it 's not about being professional . hilary : oh , no ? devon : no , it 's not . it 's about having a heart and having a conscience , okay ? you are ruining people 's lives , and you 're doing it on purpose . mariah : pick up , pick up , pick up , please . damn it . um , dylan , it 's mariah . something is going down , and you need to know about it . please , please call me back when you get this . sharon : chelsea 's in there , and she 's not family . stitch : okay , she also does n't have a restraining order against her , and nick allowed her inside ! sharon : this is insane ! this is our -- that was our child in there . stitch : okay , do you think i 'm enjoying this ? having to keep you from that little boy breaks my heart . dylan : he 's just following the law . but , man , come on . this sucks . stitch : i know . and if there was something i could do , some strings i could pull -- dylan : well , you pull them . sharon : there 's such a thing called extenuating circumstances , right ? is n't that this ? all we want is some time with christian . we just want to see his face and let him know we 're here . nick 's not used to soothing him like we are . stitch : i 'm sorry . i can't . sharon : what do you think we 're gon na do ? abduct christian from his bed with nick standing right there ? dylan : of course he does n't think that . stitch : but i ca n't play fast or loose with this one . the last thing i want to do is end up in court having to testify against my best friend ! sharon : well , then don't . dylan : well , we barge in there , either stitch has to call security or nick 's gon na call security . sharon : this just feels so wrong . this is so wrong ! stitch : i am so sorry , okay ? but i have to look out for nick , too . it 's torture having your kid hospitalized , as you well know . i would n't push him into a corner . not now . it wo n't end well . faith : i 'm gon na put a sign on the front door and on the fridge , `` no strawberries allowed . `` that way this will never happen ever again . chelsea : i think that 's a really sweet idea , faith . faith : and we can play whatever you want when we get home . i 'll even let you steal all my toys . nick : [ chuckles ] chelsea : yeah . nick : you know you are the best big sister in the world , right ? faith : not earlier today . nick : hey , you know what happened today is not your fault , right ? faith : mom said the exact same thing . she 's really worried about christian . dylan , too . nick : well , they do n't need to be worried , right , because he is gon na be just fine . faith : they still have n't seen for themselves . would it be okay if they just came in and gave him a hug ? chelsea : faith , you know dylan and your mom are n't allowed to see christian right now . faith : because of daddy , right ? because you asked a judge ? nick : yeah , that 's right . faith : so does n't that mean you can change your mind ? if you made the rule , you can unmake it . and ... mom and dylan would be so happy . [ door opens ] nick : sharon , dylan . sharon : what is it ? is christian okay ? nick : no , he 's -- he 's fine . uh ... i think he 'd like to see you . sharon : really ? nick : yeah . why do n't you go and see him ? sharon : dylan ? nick : look , i know what you 're thinking . this is not a trick . i 'm not gon na turn you in . hilary : so that 's how it is , huh ? you 're married to a heartless bitch . devon : nobody said that . hilary : yeah , you kind of did . devon : honey , i love you , all right ? i love you for the caring , compassionate woman that you are . hilary : but ? devon : but sometimes when it comes to this job , that compassion goes out the damn window . hilary : nice . devon : all right ? am i wrong ? am i ? hilary : devon , all i was trying to do was be objective . devon : no , you 're not . you 're not trying to be objective . you 're trying to get ratings . hilary : so , is that a crime ? really , is it ? devon : when you abandon your integrity ? it 's not good . how 's dylan gon na react when he sees this interview ? hilary : yeah , i 'm sure he 's not gon na like it . devon : no ? i think that 's an understatement . hilary : but dylan did n't want to be objective . dylan wanted to make his case against nick . devon : that 's his right . hilary : but we all know where that leads , devon . attack a newman , become a target . really , really think about that . do you really want to make victor newman an enemy again ? sharon : oh ! dylan : hey ! sharon : hi , sweetheart . look at you . color in your cheeks , sparkle in your eye . we are so , so happy you 're okay . dylan : yeah , all of us are . i think he wants to come over here . that 's okay . especially your dad . sharon : hey , you want to know something really cool ? all the people who love you the most are right here in this room . dylan : that 's right . come on , you 're way too tough to let a strawberry get you down , huh ? you 're my little slugger . that 's who you are . nothing can stop you . sharon : christian . baby , if you thought that we left you , we never did . [ voice breaking ] if you thought that for one second ... dylan : it 's okay . we 're right here . sharon : we 're always going to be . dylan : always . sharon : i do n't know how we walk out of here . dylan : i do n't know . we 're gon na have to . sharon : i can't . dylan : sharon , do n't push it , okay ? he needs to get his rest . sharon : okay . dylan : okay . sharon : okay . [ sighs ] we love you so much . get better , my sweet boy . dylan : that 's right . we 're gon na see you real soon , okay ? sharon : yeah . dylan : oh , yeah . that 's right . real soon . sharon : okay . nick : i , uh , i hate to ask you to do more than you 've already done , but would you mind taking faith home ? chelsea : of course . no problem . nick : good . i do n't think i 'll be here too much longer . chelsea : do n't worry about it . i got it . nick : thanks . chelsea : you about ready , kiddo ? faith : actually , i want to go home with mommy . sharon : you do ? faith : is that okay ? sharon : i would love nothing more . nick : i think that 's a great idea . go spend time with sharon and dylan . sharon : you 'll let us know how christian 's doing ? faith will be worried . nick : yeah . love you . faith : love you , too . chelsea : bye . kevin : listen , when you say you 're gon na tell somebody something , it 's customary to then ... do that . chloe : okay . well , you can thank my lovely stay at the psych facility . kevin : you do n't talk about your time there much . chloe : that 's because i do n't want to remember it . most of it , anyway . kevin : it was that bad , huh ? chloe : well , it was worth it in the end . it helped me see what i had to . finally find some peace . kevin : well , awesome for peace , but still not seeing the correlation . chloe : these boxes . i mean , when you -- when you check into a place like i did , all of a sudden you 're an exhibit . i mean , every move that you make , every pill that you pop , every flinch , every twitch . they 're watching you , looking for a sign of some violent outbreak . kevin : did you ever ... ? chloe : no , of course not . i did n't hurt a fly . but that did not stop them from ransacking my room and -- and frisking me for weapons . so i 'm sorry , but i 've -- i 've changed . i 'm just a little bit more guarded . kevin : i 'm sorry . i am . i should have known , and i didn't . chloe : how ? kevin : [ sighs ] chloe , if it 's a part of you , then i want to know about it . so if you ever want to talk about your time there -- chloe : no , i don't . i do n't , because i 'm better . i finally feel like myself , and you are a huge part of that . kevin : well , thanks . chloe : so , can we please get a move - on ? a move - on for the move - in ? see how i did that ? kevin : yeah , it was very clever . chloe : why do n't you finish packing up bella 's stuff , and i will go upstairs and finish the rest of my room . kevin : sounds like a plan . chloe : [ sighs ] kevin : i am very excited to show you your new room . i think you 're gon na love it , just like your big sister did . and you can paint it whatever color you want . delia always had a thing for pink , but , like , hot pink , not pastel . she always wanted to make a statement . but you , i do n't know . i think you might be more of an earth tones kind of girl -- yellows and greens . well , we can figure it out together . bella , we are gon na have so much fun in this house . i promise you we 're gon na fill it with laughter and memories . and the best part is , your mom ... what ? are you waiting for me to follow that up with something ? that 's all i got . your mom . she 's just the best part of everything . hey . chloe : hey . kevin : i did n't hear you come down . chloe : well , that 's because i 'm stealth like that . kevin : [ chuckles ] chloe : so , ready to get this show on the road ? kevin : yeah . our adventure begins all over again . chelsea : can i get you anything ? food , coffee ? nick : i think i have everything i need right here . chelsea : how 's he doing ? nick : he 's doing better . i think i saw him smile a little while ago . chelsea : really ? nick : yeah . i mean , i 'm pretty sure it was for the nurse , but i 'm , uh , pretending it was for me . chelsea : listen , whatever works . you know , you surprised me before , when you did n't call security . nick : on sharon and dylan ? chelsea : it would have guaranteed you a win against them in court . nick : [ sighs ] it 's not what this is about . i mean , the whole visitation and restraining order -- i mean , that 's about what 's best for christian . the problem is , we do n't agree on that . sharon and dylan think they know what 's best for him . i think i do . that 's for the judge to sort out . but right here , right now , that little boy , he needs everyone who loves him around him . and whether i like it or not , that includes sharon and dylan . chelsea : you 're a good dad , nick . nick : i 'm trying . [ sighs ] devon : i get that there 's issues with the christian newman story . hilary : yeah . big ones . devon : right . issues that we should take into consideration . but has it ever crossed your mind that if this story is so difficult to tell , maybe we just should n't tell it ? hilary : and just ignore the biggest scandal in the city ? that is a great idea . that wo n't look strange at all . devon : honey , you need to stop caring , first of all , about what people think about you . hilary : we will lose all credibility , devon ! devon : i disagree . hilary : of course you disagree ! devon : look at the thanksgiving episode . it was well - received , no scandal . just good , honest storytelling , right ? is that not why we bought this place -- to get rid of all the ugliness ? hilary : yes . devon : okay . hilary : but that was a holiday episode . devon : no , we can be entertaining and make a difference at the same time . this show can be a place that provides hope for people . we can educate people . we can literally take a real stand on something . hilary : see , that 's the difference between you and me , because in my mind , we 're already doing that . devon : and how do you figure we 're already doing that when we present people and their situations in false light ? hilary : [ scoffs ] you know what ? the show is about to start , so why do n't we let the viewers decide ? hi , there . i 'm hilary curtis , and do i have some buzz for you . sharon : i have an idea . faith : what ? sharon : let 's go old school and do family movie night . dylan : yes . faith : yay ! do i get to pick the movie ? sharon : duh . faith : yay ! sharon : and you know what ? we 're gon na have popcorn and hot chocolate . dylan : we can order some pizza . sharon : yeah , my mouth 's watering already . faith : dylan , you 're on tv ! sharon : oh , you know what , sweetie ? i do n't want you to watch that show . dylan : i - i think it 's okay . sharon : it 's okay ? it 's gc buzz . dylan : yeah , but she can hear what i said . it should be okay . sharon : okay . hilary : after the break , are these really two people who should be raising children in the first place ? hear from dylan mcavoy 's own mouth . dylan : my wife has a history of mental illness . hilary : let 's see what that 's all about when we come back . dylan : [ sighs ] sharon : um , faith , will you go upstairs , please ? right now . faith : but -- sharon : right now . mariah : [ thinking ] `` these people are a couple of baby stealers . `` `` this dude and his wife should be locked up . `` `` she needs therapy , not a baby . `` hilary : now you be the judge . and as always , keep on buzzing , gc . sharon : you know , it 's hard to believe we used to be friends . dylan : that 's not what i said . i mean , it is what i said , but i - i followed up with something positive on how great you 're doing , what a great mother you are . i was just trying to be honest , and -- and she manipulated the whole thing . sharon : does mariah know about this ? dylan : she has to . but she said nothing like this would happen . sharon : well , all bets are off when hilary 's involved . she probably could n't do anything to stop hilary . dylan : i know , but it 's all out of context , sharon . i defended you . sharon : i know you did . you know , but maybe this is a lesson . maybe what i 've done is indefensible in the eyes of the public and the law . you see now ? this is why we have to get a divorce . kevin : [ sighs ] what happened ? mariah : everything . kevin : why do n't we start with one thing ? 3mariah : well , dylan hates me . kevin : [ sighs ] what happened ? mariah : everything . kevin : why do n't we start with one thing ? mariah : well , dylan hates me . kevin : [ sighs ] what happened ? mariah : everything . kevin : why do n't we start with one thing ? mariah : well , dylan hates me . if he does n't yet , he will . sharon and i were supposed to have dinner tonight , but fat chance of that happening . basically i just should n't go home . kevin : whatever it is , it ca n't be that bad . mariah : i got their visitation petition sabotaged , and i earn a paycheck while doing it . so not only is it that bad , it 's worse . are you headed home ? kevin : actually , i -- mariah : could i crash in my old room ? i - i promise it 'll just be for tonight . chloe : hello . one celebratory drink , sir . kevin : thank you . chloe : cheers . mariah : what are we celebrating ? kevin : um , chloe 's moving back in . sharon : hilary was able to manipulate your words and turn us both into villains because of me . this is my fault . dylan : come on , sharon . stop . sharon : it 's true . but it does n't have to be this way . you still have a chance to see christian , to have him in your life . you can watch him grow up . you just have to cut me out . dylan : stop . stop . you 're not going anywhere . sharon : but i 'm hurting you . dylan : okay , i 've said it once . i 'm gon na say it again . we 're in this together , okay ? sharon : are you positive ? dylan : yes , i 'm positive . i 'm not cutting you out . we 're not getting divorced . we 're just gon na have to go at this another way . sharon : how ? dylan : i do n't know . but that interview is not the end of our fight . sharon : i love you . dylan : i love you , too . hilary : hey . check this out . # showstopper . # bestepisodeever . and , oh , # hilarystingslikeabee . devon : sounds like they like it . hilary : mm - hmm . devon : and they 've also never seen the original interview , so they have no idea they 're being played . hilary : okay , played ? you 're being a little dramatic . if it was up to mariah , we 'd be manipulating the audience in the other direction , swaying everything in dylan 's favor , and i 'm sorry , but there is no way that i let that traitor use me again . devon : hang on a second . did you mess with dylan 's words to try and get back at mariah ? hilary : no , okay ? of course not . devon : well , here 's the deal . next episode , there 's no scandal involved at all . honest and upstanding the whole way . hilary : are you insane ? no . devon : i 'm not insane , but are you refusing to do that ? hilary : um , yeah , decimate my whole show ? yeah , i 'm refusing . devon : okay . well , then it 's not your show anymore , 'cause you 're fired . chelsea : okay , i know you said you were n't hungry , but i just could n't help myself . it 's a mom thing . nick : all right . thank you . that 's , uh ... what is this ? chelsea : i 'm not entirely sure . it was kind of slim pickins in the cafeteria , so ... nick : okay , well , we 're just gon na set this right over here . chelsea : you know , we 'll save it for later . nick : yeah , that sounds delicious . i ca n't wait . [ both laugh ] nick : eeh . thanks , uh , for everything . i mean , after yesterday , i did n't think i 'd be laughing today . chelsea : well , look at you now . nick : you keep me calm , chelsea . that 's not an easy feat . chelsea : nah , you do that all on your own . i am curious , though . nick : about what 's actually in that food container ? chelsea : [ laughs ] yeah . no . yes , actually , that , and , um , i do n't know , has today changed anything ? it seems like maybe you 've softened where dylan and sharon are concerned . nick : and you want to know what that means for the visitation lawsuit . [ cell phone vibrates ] nick : sorry . chelsea : it 's okay . nick : that 's weird . somebody sent me a link , a video link . hilary : please help us understand how you could stand by your wife , who lied to you . maybe you 're making allowances for sharon because of her history with mental illness . dylan : sharon has bipolar disorder . hilary : and you stand by her ? dylan : i could . but i wo n't . chelsea : that does n't even sound like dylan at all . why would he talk about sharon that way ? nick : who knows what game they 're playing . you asked me earlier what changed ? nothing . i 'm not handing my son over to anyone . [ next_on ] faith : i do n't want breakfast . i want to go back to dad 's . travis : i know i messed up , but i love victoria , and i 'm gon na win her back . billy : we just need to keep it through the new year . victoria : what the hell ?
christian is rushed to the hospital where stitch tells nick that christian is allergic to strawberries . nick is upset with dylan and sharon because they did n't tell him such important information . faith persuades nick to allow dylan and sharon to see christian , because they were really worried about him . mariah is upset that hilary edited dylan 's interview in such a way that everything he said is twisted around to mean something else that he never said at all . devon tries to persuade hilary to air the original version of the interview , but she decides to air the edited version . chloe is upset that kevin packed up her stuff , so that she can move in with him , because she is worried that he will find out the identity of bella 's father . once she finds out he does n't know , however , she makes up with kevin and finishes packing to move into his house . nick watches sharon and dylan with christian and considers giving them visitation but changes his mind when he sees dylan 's interview on gc buzz .
<s>[INST] mariah : what did you do to dylan 's interview ? hilary : [ scoffs ] you did not just talk to me like that . mariah : i certainly did . we had an agreement , hilary ! you reneged ! hilary : what i did was make the segment more watchable . mariah : watchable ? ! you fabricated the entire thing ! hey , could you play back the original clip ? the unedited version ? dylan : it 's , uh , no secret sharon 's had difficulty managing her bipolar disorder in the past . but she 's come a long way . she 's competent , stable , 100 % rational , and we have her doctor 's affidavit to prove it . mariah : now could you please play the edited version , if you could even call it that ? dylan : it 's , uh , no secret sharon 's had difficulty managing her bipolar disorder in the past . hilary : dylan mcavoy has faced psychiatric challenges of his own after his tour of duty in afghanistan . mariah : you twisted everything ! hilary : and it works . that 's why i 'm the boss . chelsea : hey . what are you guys doing here ? nick : where 's christian ? is he all right ? sharon : we do n't know . nick : what do you mean , you do n't know ? dylan : stitch is in with him right now . nick : is he alone ? sharon : they would n't let anyone in . nick , he 's gon na be okay . he 's got to be . nick : i do n't get it . how can this even happen ? how can christian just get a rash and start wheezing ? [ scene_break ] chloe : what the ... ? whoa , what are you doing ? kevin : oh , man . you were n't supposed to be home this soon . i wanted it to be a surprise . oh , well . surprise ! i 'm packing you up for the big move . chloe : wait , you went through my closet ? sharon : christian broke out in a rash once before . we thought maybe it was the strawberries , but we could never be sure . dylan : the pediatrician just told us to look out for it . sharon : and -- and he certainly never had a problem breathing . nick : you should have given me a heads up either way . sharon : oh , i 'm sorry , nick . i guess we were too busy handing our child over to you to give you a full medical history ! dylan : we did n't know the allergy was so severe . sharon : and maybe you should have asked . dylan : sharon . sharon : no , i 'm serious . given summer 's issues , it would have been an appropriate question . nick : are you blaming me ? chelsea : i do n't think anyone is blaming anyone . we 're all just concerned and worried about christian . nick : how 'd you even know ? sharon : faith called me . we got here before you did . chelsea : where is she ? dylan : uh , nurse is hanging out with her and gon na bring her back soon . sharon : leah ? ! is this some kind of a joke ? she tried to sell us out to the gc buzz . nick : what happened to christian ? leah : i 'm so sorry . i took my eyes off him one second . i did n't know about the allergy . nick : makes two of us . sharon : well , you would n't know , because ever since the doctor warned us , i have n't had strawberries in the house ! dylan : hey , how is he ? nick : is he all right ? sharon : stitch . stitch : the good news is , he never lost consciousness , and he seems to be responding well to treatment . sharon : oh , thank god . his breathing ? stitch : has returned back to normal . sharon : [ sighs ] dylan : so it was just a run - of - the - mill allergic reaction ? stitch : looks that way , but i 've run some tests just to be on the safe side , rule out anything else . nick : can i see him ? stitch : go on in . i 'll be back soon with more answers , all right ? [ door opens ] nick : hey . hey , bud . hey . come here . come here , come here , come here , come here . [ door opens ] hey , dude . man , you scared me . do n't do that again , all right ? daddy 's right here . daddy 's right here . additional sponsorship leah : again , i 'm so sorry . please text me and let me know christian 's okay . chelsea : i will -- i will tell nick , but i think it 's best you go home now . dylan : oh , and , leah ? you try and sell this to gc buzz , you better get a lot of lawyers . nick : yeah . you 're gon na be all right . you know how i know that ? 'cause we still have so much to do . i mean , our first christmas . yeah . we got all our sports . the zoo . oh , man , i love the zoo . and we 're literally gon na hit every park in genoa city . you gon na be ready for that ? hmm ? you got to get better . and quick , okay ? we still have so much to look forward to . chelsea : [ sighs ] sharon : we , uh , we hope that nick understands that we would like to see christian , as well . dylan : that might not be possible . sharon : well , he needs to make that possible . we love that little boy in there . we 're standing out here like we 're strangers . no ! chelsea : i know this is hard for you . i really do . but the fact is , you 're already in violation of the restraining order . sharon : faith called me in a panic , chelsea . she was terrified for her little brother . what were we supposed to do ? say , `` thanks for letting us know , honey . we hope that works out `` ? chelsea : no , of course not . i think it was -- it was smart of you guys to come here , actually . i really do . i 'm just saying if you push this , nick will have every legal right to call security . dylan : that 's true . sharon : he can call whoever he wants . i 'm not leaving . not until i know christian 's okay . nick : that 's my guy . you 're my guy , right ? you 're gon na be just fine . i promise . i promise . mariah : we had an agreement , hilary . hilary : an agreement which i stuck to . mariah : on what planet ? ! hilary : i gave dylan a chance to tell his side of the story , did n't i ? mariah : you know it does n't count if you completely twist his words , right ? ! hilary : oh , but they 're still his words . mariah : sliced and diced by you to turn everything he said into a complete lie ! and what 's even worse , it 's completely warped and a total slam to my mom ! hilary : i 'm sorry if you 're disappointed . mariah : yeah , no , you 're not . and disappointed does n't even begin to cover it ! do you have any idea what this will do to my family ? there are innocent children involved , hilary . hilary : you think that i was unfair because i did n't go with dylan 's slanted version ? mariah : it 's not slanted ! it 's his ! it 's his experience , which is what you asked for ! hilary : well , how do you think nick newman would feel about that ? mariah : you know what ? if nick wants to tell his side of the story , by all means , invite him on the show . but this , what you did , it is out of line , and you know it . re - edit the interview before it airs . wait . w - what did you just do ? hilary : it 's called an executive decision . the show will air as planned with my edits . mariah : you selfish , manipulative bitch ! devon : hey , hey , hey , hey ! knock it off ! kevin : i 'm sorry if i overstepped . chloe : well , it 's an invasion of my privacy , kevin . kevin : privacy ? it 's your closet . i do n't understand . what are you looking for ? chloe : i am looking to see what you packed since i did n't give you permission . kevin : i was trying to help ! bella was taking a nap . i had time on my hands . i thought the goal was to get you out of here as soon as possible . chloe : well , i 'm sorry . i do n't like people going through my stuff . i 'm particular like that . kevin : since when ? ! our bedroom used to look like a tornado hit it ! i would wade through your junk all the time ! chloe : okay , yeah , i get it . kevin : well , i don't . chloe : well , i used to be an unorganized slob , and now i 'm not . kevin : chloe . chloe ! chloe : what ? ! kevin : i think there 's something else going on here . i think there 's something in your closet you do n't want me to find , and i think i know what it is -- bella 's father . chloe : [ scoffs ] chloe : [ chuckles ] oh , god . kevin : it 's not funny . chloe : hmm . i think it is . i think it 's very funny , actually , to think that i 'm hiding a human being in my closet . i mean , like i could -- kevin : the identity of bella 's father . you knew what i meant . chloe : yeah . yeah , i did . kevin : okay , so what do you have stashed up there that you do n't want me to see ? chloe : [ sighs ] kevin : letters ? a picture ? a birth certificate with his name on it ? chloe : why are you obsessing about this ? kevin : i 'm not ! i had n't even though about it , hand to god , until you freaked out ! chloe : [ scoffs ] i 'm not freaking out , and i think i know a little about freaking out . kevin : that is not funny . i thought you wanted to move in with me . chloe : i do . kevin : maybe you think you do but you don't . maybe i jumped the gun . chloe : kevin , no -- kevin : no , maybe this was more about you cooling things off with chelsea than about you wanting to live with me , and -- and maybe now you feel backed into a corner . chloe : kevin , stop . it 's -- kevin : okay , look . be honest with me . we 've come too far to keep things from each other . chloe : i agree . kevin : okay , good . so here 's where i stand . when you said that you wanted to live with me , i took that as a major step forward , an opportunity for us to be a family again -- you , me , and bella . but if that 's not what you want , if that 's not how you see your future , then you have to tell me . now . devon : would you guys like to tell me what the hell is going on ? mariah : i thought my description of your wife was very clear , actually . devon : no , it was inappropriate , actually , especially in the workplace . hilary : thank you . devon : but i want to know what incited it . mariah : oh , well , hilary sandbagged dylan 's interview after the fact . devon : and what does that mean ? mariah : [ chuckles ] it means she changed his take on everything , edited the piece to make it look like dylan came here to throw sharon under the bus , which we all know was the exact opposite of what he wanted to do . devon : is that true ? hilary : it was a snoozefest , devon , okay ? i just -- i made the piece a little more interesting , and ... mariah : the truth was a snoozefest , so you livened it up with lies . so much for turning over a new leaf . clearly you learned nothing from your charitable thanksgiving episode . hilary : [ scoffs ] i have learned plenty , honey , including the fact that my husband only keeps you on staff to be my watchdog . oh , yeah . i know all about that . sharon : i refuse to let a piece of paper keep me from being here for my -- for christian . i need to know that he 's okay ! chelsea : i understand , but -- sharon : do you really understand , chelsea ? you keep saying that , but what if this were connor ? chelsea : it 's not the same , sharon , at all . sharon : no , it 's not , because you 're still with the little boy that you raised from birth . dylan : hey , come on . it 's okay . sharon : no , it 's not . it 's not okay ! nothing 's okay ! chelsea : i understand that you want to be in that room . i really , really do . but barging in there right now , it 's only gon na be a bad thing for the both of you . sharon : i do n't care . the only thing that matters right now is christian and that he 's healthy . dylan : and i think that 's something we can all agree on . chelsea : absolutely . faith : mommy ! sharon : baby , hi ! sweetheart , how are you ? faith : [ sobbing ] i 'm scared ! sharon : oh , my goodness , baby . you know what ? we 're all scared , too , but your brother , he 's gon na be fine . everything 's gon na be okay . faith : i 'm so sorry . sharon : what do you have to be sorry about ? faith : i saw the strawberries in the bowl . i should have said something to leah , but i was n't thinking . i did n't know he 'd get so sick , mommy . sharon : of course you didn't . it 's okay . hey , listen to me . this is not your fault . it 's not your job to look after him and make sure he 's safe . you 're not the parent . faith : i still feel like it 's my fault . sharon : okay , well , it 's not , all right ? this was an accident . no one 's to blame , you hear me ? especially not you . faith : i 'm really glad you 're here . sharon : me , too . stitch : nick ? nick : yeah ? okay . here , little buddy . i 'm gon na go right outside , okay ? i 'll be back . dylan : how do the test results look ? stitch : christian is fine . chelsea : oh , thank god . nick : really ? stitch : no markers indicating otherwise . sharon : thank you . stitch : given his reaction was stronger this time , you need to be vigilant when it comes to strawberries . nick : yeah , uh , now that i know , i 'll make sure he steers clear . chelsea : so can he go home now ? stitch : i 'd like to keep him under observation a little longer , make 100 % sure it 's out of his system . dylan : that sounds good . sharon : it 's better safe than sorry . nick : come on . let 's go see your little brother . stitch : i 'm sorry , mac . immediate family only . [ door closes ] `` the young and the restless `` will continue . kevin : just be straight with me . i promise i 'm not gon na break -- much . are you getting cold feet ? chloe : my feet are the temperature they 're supposed to be . here . you want to feel them ? kevin : you are not gon na joke or charm your way out of this . chloe : what 's with all the pressure ? kevin : what pressure ? have i demanded to know bella 's bio - dad 's name ? no . have i investigated him at work , which i could so easily do , and find out his identity in like a second ? chloe : and you wouldn't . kevin : no , i would n't , because that would be invading your privacy for real . chloe , i 'm not trying to make you do anything you do n't want to do . that 's why we 're having this conversation . if moving into my place is gon na make you uncomfortable -- chloe : it 's a big step . kevin : yes , it is . chloe : but i 'm not doing it out of convenience . i would never uproot my child 's life just to make it easier for me . okay ? i ... i just want a home for us . a real one . kevin : but something is stopping you . that was clear the second you walked in and saw those boxes . whatever it is , tell me . i can handle it . chloe : okay . okay , i 'll tell you . devon : [ sighs ] hey , can i talk to you in private ? hilary : private ? like you and mariah ? and do n't you even try to deny it because i heard you on the phone with her . for a spy , you 're pretty pathetic , by the way . mariah : thanks . hilary : how dare you ask her to keep tabs on me ? it is an insult on every level . mariah : but oh , so necessary . i tried , devon . really , really i did , but clearly she ca n't help herself . i guess garbage and filth are , like , your natural habitat or something . hilary : you want to talk about habitat , you snake ? ! devon : hey , stop it , stop it . can you give us a second , please ? mariah : but i 'm having so much fun . devon : please . [ sighs ] hilary : i can not believe that my own husband ca n't trust me to be professional . i 'm not a child , devon . i do n't need you to keep tabs on me . devon : it 's not about being professional . hilary : oh , no ? devon : no , it 's not . it 's about having a heart and having a conscience , okay ? you are ruining people 's lives , and you 're doing it on purpose . mariah : pick up , pick up , pick up , please . damn it . um , dylan , it 's mariah . something is going down , and you need to know about it . please , please call me back when you get this . sharon : chelsea 's in there , and she 's not family . stitch : okay , she also does n't have a restraining order against her , and nick allowed her inside ! sharon : this is insane ! this is our -- that was our child in there . stitch : okay , do you think i 'm enjoying this ? having to keep you from that little boy breaks my heart . dylan : he 's just following the law . but , man , come on . this sucks . stitch : i know . and if there was something i could do , some strings i could pull -- dylan : well , you pull them . sharon : there 's such a thing called extenuating circumstances , right ? is n't that this ? all we want is some time with christian . we just want to see his face and let him know we 're here . nick 's not used to soothing him like we are . stitch : i 'm sorry . i can't . sharon : what do you think we 're gon na do ? abduct christian from his bed with nick standing right there ? dylan : of course he does n't think that . stitch : but i ca n't play fast or loose with this one . the last thing i want to do is end up in court having to testify against my best friend ! sharon : well , then don't . dylan : well , we barge in there , either stitch has to call security or nick 's gon na call security . sharon : this just feels so wrong . this is so wrong ! stitch : i am so sorry , okay ? but i have to look out for nick , too . it 's torture having your kid hospitalized , as you well know . i would n't push him into a corner . not now . it wo n't end well . faith : i 'm gon na put a sign on the front door and on the fridge , `` no strawberries allowed . `` that way this will never happen ever again . chelsea : i think that 's a really sweet idea , faith . faith : and we can play whatever you want when we get home . i 'll even let you steal all my toys . nick : [ chuckles ] chelsea : yeah . nick : you know you are the best big sister in the world , right ? faith : not earlier today . nick : hey , you know what happened today is not your fault , right ? faith : mom said the exact same thing . she 's really worried about christian . dylan , too . nick : well , they do n't need to be worried , right , because he is gon na be just fine . faith : they still have n't seen for themselves . would it be okay if they just came in and gave him a hug ? chelsea : faith , you know dylan and your mom are n't allowed to see christian right now . faith : because of daddy , right ? because you asked a judge ? nick : yeah , that 's right . faith : so does n't that mean you can change your mind ? if you made the rule , you can unmake it . and ... mom and dylan would be so happy .

[ sighs ] devon : i get that there 's issues with the christian newman story . hilary : yeah . big ones . devon : right . issues that we should take into consideration . but has it ever crossed your mind that if this story is so difficult to tell , maybe we just should n't tell it ? hilary : and just ignore the biggest scandal in the city ? that is a great idea . that wo n't look strange at all . devon : honey , you need to stop caring , first of all , about what people think about you . hilary : we will lose all credibility , devon ! devon : i disagree . hilary : of course you disagree ! devon : look at the thanksgiving episode . it was well - received , no scandal . just good , honest storytelling , right ? is that not why we bought this place -- to get rid of all the ugliness ? hilary : yes . devon : okay . hilary : but that was a holiday episode . devon : no , we can be entertaining and make a difference at the same time . this show can be a place that provides hope for people . we can educate people . we can literally take a real stand on something . hilary : see , that 's the difference between you and me , because in my mind , we 're already doing that . devon : and how do you figure we 're already doing that when we present people and their situations in false light ? hilary : [ scoffs ] you know what ? the show is about to start , so why do n't we let the viewers decide ? hi , there . i 'm hilary curtis , and do i have some buzz for you . sharon : i have an idea . faith : what ? sharon : let 's go old school and do family movie night . dylan : yes . faith : yay ! do i get to pick the movie ? sharon : duh . faith : yay ! sharon : and you know what ? we 're gon na have popcorn and hot chocolate . dylan : we can order some pizza . sharon : yeah , my mouth 's watering already . faith : dylan , you 're on tv ! sharon : oh , you know what , sweetie ? i do n't want you to watch that show . dylan : i - i think it 's okay . sharon : it 's okay ? it 's gc buzz . dylan : yeah , but she can hear what i said . it should be okay . sharon : okay . hilary : after the break , are these really two people who should be raising children in the first place ? hear from dylan mcavoy 's own mouth . dylan : my wife has a history of mental illness . hilary : let 's see what that 's all about when we come back . dylan : [ sighs ] sharon : um , faith , will you go upstairs , please ? right now . faith : but -- sharon : right now . mariah : [ thinking ] `` these people are a couple of baby stealers . `` `` this dude and his wife should be locked up . `` `` she needs therapy , not a baby . `` hilary : now you be the judge . and as always , keep on buzzing , gc . sharon : you know , it 's hard to believe we used to be friends . dylan : that 's not what i said . i mean , it is what i said , but i - i followed up with something positive on how great you 're doing , what a great mother you are . i was just trying to be honest , and -- and she manipulated the whole thing . sharon : does mariah know about this ? dylan : she has to . but she said nothing like this would happen . sharon : well , all bets are off when hilary 's involved . she probably could n't do anything to stop hilary . dylan : i know , but it 's all out of context , sharon . i defended you . sharon : i know you did . you know , but maybe this is a lesson . maybe what i 've done is indefensible in the eyes of the public and the law . you see now ? this is why we have to get a divorce . kevin : [ sighs ] what happened ? mariah : everything . kevin : why do n't we start with one thing ? 3mariah : well , dylan hates me . kevin : [ sighs ] what happened ? mariah : everything . kevin : why do n't we start with one thing ? mariah : well , dylan hates me . kevin : [ sighs ] what happened ? mariah : everything . kevin : why do n't we start with one thing ? mariah : well , dylan hates me . if he does n't yet , he will . sharon and i were supposed to have dinner tonight , but fat chance of that happening . basically i just should n't go home . kevin : whatever it is , it ca n't be that bad . mariah : i got their visitation petition sabotaged , and i earn a paycheck while doing it . so not only is it that bad , it 's worse . are you headed home ? kevin : actually , i -- mariah : could i crash in my old room ? i - i promise it 'll just be for tonight . chloe : hello . one celebratory drink , sir . kevin : thank you . chloe : cheers . mariah : what are we celebrating ? kevin : um , chloe 's moving back in . sharon : hilary was able to manipulate your words and turn us both into villains because of me . this is my fault . dylan : come on , sharon . stop . sharon : it 's true . but it does n't have to be this way . you still have a chance to see christian , to have him in your life . you can watch him grow up . you just have to cut me out . dylan : stop . stop . you 're not going anywhere . sharon : but i 'm hurting you . dylan : okay , i 've said it once . i 'm gon na say it again . we 're in this together , okay ? sharon : are you positive ? dylan : yes , i 'm positive . i 'm not cutting you out . we 're not getting divorced . we 're just gon na have to go at this another way . sharon : how ? dylan : i do n't know . but that interview is not the end of our fight . sharon : i love you . dylan : i love you , too . hilary : hey . check this out . # showstopper . # bestepisodeever . and , oh , # hilarystingslikeabee . devon : sounds like they like it . hilary : mm - hmm . devon : and they 've also never seen the original interview , so they have no idea they 're being played . hilary : okay , played ? you 're being a little dramatic . if it was up to mariah , we 'd be manipulating the audience in the other direction , swaying everything in dylan 's favor , and i 'm sorry , but there is no way that i let that traitor use me again . devon : hang on a second . did you mess with dylan 's words to try and get back at mariah ? hilary : no , okay ? of course not . devon : well , here 's the deal . next episode , there 's no scandal involved at all . honest and upstanding the whole way . hilary : are you insane ? no . devon : i 'm not insane , but are you refusing to do that ? hilary : um , yeah , decimate my whole show ? yeah , i 'm refusing . devon : okay . well , then it 's not your show anymore , 'cause you 're fired . chelsea : okay , i know you said you were n't hungry , but i just could n't help myself . it 's a mom thing . nick : all right . thank you . that 's , uh ... what is this ? chelsea : i 'm not entirely sure . it was kind of slim pickins in the cafeteria , so ... nick : okay , well , we 're just gon na set this right over here . chelsea : you know , we 'll save it for later . nick : yeah , that sounds delicious . i ca n't wait . [ both laugh ] nick : eeh . thanks , uh , for everything . i mean , after yesterday , i did n't think i 'd be laughing today . chelsea : well , look at you now . nick : you keep me calm , chelsea . that 's not an easy feat . chelsea : nah , you do that all on your own . i am curious , though . nick : about what 's actually in that food container ? chelsea : [ laughs ] yeah . no . yes , actually , that , and , um , i do n't know , has today changed anything ? it seems like maybe you 've softened where dylan and sharon are concerned . nick : and you want to know what that means for the visitation lawsuit . [ cell phone vibrates ] nick : sorry . chelsea : it 's okay . nick : that 's weird . somebody sent me a link , a video link . hilary : please help us understand how you could stand by your wife , who lied to you . maybe you 're making allowances for sharon because of her history with mental illness . dylan : sharon has bipolar disorder . hilary : and you stand by her ? dylan : i could . but i wo n't . chelsea : that does n't even sound like dylan at all . why would he talk about sharon that way ? nick : who knows what game they 're playing . you asked me earlier what changed ? nothing . i 'm not handing my son over to anyone . [ next_on ] faith : i do n't want breakfast . i want to go back to dad 's . travis : i know i messed up , but i love victoria , and i 'm gon na win her back . billy : we just need to keep it through the new year . victoria : what the hell ?Summarize.[/INST]christian is rushed to the hospital where stitch tells nick that christian is allergic to strawberries . nick is upset with dylan and sharon because they did n't tell him such important information . faith persuades nick to allow dylan and sharon to see christian , because they were really worried about him . mariah is upset that hilary edited dylan 's interview in such a way that everything he said is twisted around to mean something else that he never said at all . devon tries to persuade hilary to air the original version of the interview , but she decides to air the edited version . chloe is upset that kevin packed up her stuff , so that she can move in with him , because she is worried that he will find out the identity of bella 's father . once she finds out he does n't know , however , she makes up with kevin and finishes packing to move into his house . nick watches sharon and dylan with christian and considers giving them visitation but changes his mind when he sees dylan 's interview on gc buzz .</s>

( chuckles ) $ 10 million , but i turned him down . billy : you must really like it here . chelsea : i like that i 've realized that i ca n't be bribed by victor newman , or anybody else , for that matter . adam : yeah . i mean , even after the novelty wears off , you end up feeling pretty good about yourself . victoria : just , please , put yourself in our place . i mean , we have -- we have a new baby -- chelsea : right , this little boy that i gave birth to . i also remember that you made me a promise when i signed him off to you . you said that i could always be a part of his life . billy : yeah , yeah , i know . victoria : ( sighs ) billy : we did . it 's just -- chelsea : it 's just that you were hoping that i would n't hold you to it .

[ sighs ] shawn : who are you ? carlos : i 'm gallery security . now , do you mind putting that thing away ? shawn : well , this is n't louvre , so why does the jerome gallery need an armed guard ? carlos : how do you know i 'm armed ? shawn : call it a gift . carlos : the paintings are done by a guy named franco . he 's got a very strange following . we ca n't be too careful . shawn : so , are you protecting franco or derek wells ? but we both know that 's not his real name , right ? carlos : oh , you 've done your homework . still , if you want to go in the gallery , you got to check the weapon . shawn : who says i 'm going inside ? carlos : oh , what 's wrong ? not a fan of art ... mr . butler ? shawn : oh , you know my name . carlos : yeah , i did my homework -- familiarized myself with all the corinthos employees . now , come on . the gun . shawn : you know , i do n't really care too much for contemporary art . carlos : oh , okay . well , then you got no business here . so let 's say our `` good nights , `` and you can be on your way . shawn : and what if i want to stay ? sonny : danny has nothing to do with this . sam : no , sonny , it is has everything to do with danny . sonny : listen , julian is danny 's grandfather , just like a.j . is michael 's father . they supply the material , but there 's no connection . alexis : in danny 's case , that may be all that matters . sam : no , no , no . you guys , julian donated the marrow that saved danny . if his leukemia reoccurs , i 'm gon na need him again . needing another donor -- we searched for months -- it 's gon na be like having lightning strike twice . it 's not gon na happen . ava : what my niece is trying to tell you , sonny , is that if you kill my brother , you could be killing danny , as well . sonny : nothing 's gon na happen to danny . sam : not as long as julian , my father , lives . he just agreed to go to the hospital tomorrow . silas is working on a procedure to bank some marrow to keep it on hand just in case danny ever gets sick again . sonny : he agreed to it ? just right -- he agreed to it ? sam : i asked him earlier . alexis : so whatever you have planned , drop it . sonny : okay , you know what , uh , doctor ? i just want to confirm something . danny is fine at the moment ? silas : he 's in remission , but if he has a relapse , he 'll need more bone marrow . ava : my brother 's bone marrow . so , you can roll the dice , sonny . silas , what are the chances that danny 's leukemia will return ? silas : the five - year survival rate is just over 85 % . ava : 85 % . and danny 's what ? 2 ? so then , when he 's in the second grade , getting ready for reading and writing and soccer , there 's a 15 % chance that he 'll get sick again . silas : shut up , ava . ava : and then again when he 's 12 , getting ready for his first kiss , and 17 , applying to colleges , and 22 , getting ready to graduate . sonny : i get the point . ava : do you ? is 15 % an acceptable chance to take on the son of jason morgan ? max : i know you care about the boss . olivia : [ sighs ] max : and i know he cares about you , too . olivia : sonny 's just been through so much . any -- any feelings we had -- a romantic attraction -- i just had to put it aside -- you know , wait for him to heal .

[ scoffs ] ... bank my marrow , sonny 's gon na be free to kill me . sam : earlier today , you told me that you would donate your marrow -- you would let silas run those tests . what -- what , did you change your mind , or were you lying all along ? julian : [ sighs ] sam : what is it ? julian : look ... sam : what ? ! silas : he was lying . julian : look , stay the hell out of this , okay ? silas : i 'm already in it , whether i want to be or not , and it does n't take a brain surgeon to figure out what 's going on here . you provoke sonny -- the exploding shipment , the trashing of his warehouse , having morgan plant the bug in his office . julian : yeah . silas : you needed a really good insurance policy , and little danny fit that bill . sam : and -- and sonny was right . you were keeping danny hostage . julian : look , sam , please , the best thing for me to do right now for danny is to stay alive , and given the situation with -- with -- with sonny , the only thing to do here is -- is nothing . sam : `` nothing `` ? do you know what doing nothing is , julian ? no . excuse me . dad . do you know what doing nothing is ? it 's sitting there , powerless , watching your child wasting away , not being able to stop it . you 're doing that to me -- my own father . ava : silas , would you reason with her ? it really is the best thing for danny . silas : you do not speak to me . let 's get out of here . julian : look , sam . please , wait . alexis : you want to talk to someone , you talk to me . you bastard . carly : come on , michael . kiki : michael , i love you ! please , wake up ! carly : i got this ! michael ! kiki : [ sobbing ] carly : michael , come on , baby . i 'm your mother . now , wake up . kiki : michael , please ! we love you ! please , michael ! michael . carly : come on , michael . i love you . kiki : michael , please ! michael : [ gasps , coughs ] kiki : oh , my gosh ! thank god ! oh , he 's okay . he 's okay . carly : you 're gon na be okay . kiki : come on . sit up . sit up . sit up . sit up . carly : you 're okay . calm down , baby . you 're okay . kiki : you 're okay . oh , thank god . oh , thank god .

'cause you know she would have told him . kiki : after everything that he just did , you 're still protecting him ? michael : no , i 'm protecting my parents . they 've been through enough . [ sighs ] and besides , morgan -- you know , he 's my brother , no matter how much i hate him right now . i have to hope there 's a chance that he can be saved from the jeromes ... and from himself . ava : there you are . why did n't you answer your phone ? [ gasps ] oh . what happened to your face ? morgan : [ chuckles ] mikey hit back . ava : oh . [ smooches ] are you okay ? morgan : i do n't know . ava : that was difficult at the gallery . i tried to warn you . pitting yourself against your father ... comes at a cost . morgan : yeah . do n't worry . i 'll pay it . ava : and i will help you . alexis : you got rid of carly already ? she was n't useful to you , huh ? julian : okay , alexis , i can tell that you 're a little angry right now , but you need to believe me that i love our daughter and i love our grandson and i would do anything to protect them . now , does this -- i do n't know -- benefit me vis -- vis sonny ? sure . but that does n't change how i feel about you , danny , and sam . alexis : great . go get tested . julian : [ chuckles ] there 's not just one simple answer to this , alexis . you know that , okay ? now , if you trust me ... alexis : why would i trust you ? julian : you did , once upon a time . you looked in my eyes . you walked out of that bar and into my car . alexis : are you going to seduce me now ? julian : you tell me . i remember you . i 'll see you soon . silas : from past experience , i know how it 's hard to wash your hands of family , no matter how ... troubled or screwed up they may be . sam : yes . and i think julian is trouble . period . i do n't want to think about this right now . ugh .

[ chuckles ] and i do n't know . i do n't know if that makes it even or what . i just , um ... i want to take that leap . did you hear what i said ? i said i wanted -- franco : yeah , i heard what you said .

<s>[INST] julian : sonny is right about one thing , though . i was n't in a position to tell you who i was . i had no choice but to keep that from you , but that does n't change the fact that you are my daughter and danny is my grandson , and i love you both . you have no idea how -- how long i 've wanted to tell you that -- how much i wanted to claim you as my family -- to really get to know you . but that 's never gon na happen . sam : what do you mean that 's not gon na happen ? why not ? julian : because , as much as i want to get to know you , i want to have a real relationship with you . it 's never gon na happen . tj : i ca n't reach shawn . it keeps going straight to voicemail . molly : well , maybe he 's in a dead zone . tj : yeah , that 's what i 'm worried about . [ gun cocks ] julian : sonny has people waiting outside . as soon as i leave this gallery , i 'm a dead man . ai n't that right , sonny ? sam : come on . is that true ? is it , sonny ? are you planning to have my ... father killed ? michael : you know , i thought i could forgive you of anything , morgan . morgan : [ coughs ] michael : but if our father dies because of you , i will never forgive that . morgan : [ sighs ] that 's right . come on . kiki : michael ! michael ! michael , do n't ! what are you doing ? ! morgan ! morgan ! michael ! michael ! morgan , what have you done ? ! olivia : you are way out of line with this . i do n't care who 's giving you the orders . you got no right to do it . max . max , you 're taking this way too far . max : olivia , you are a terrific person . but you can be a real pain in the ass . olivia : thank you . some of us object to being dragged off against our will . max : the boss told me to keep you safe and under wraps , and that 's what i 'm gon na do . olivia : even if it means , uh , manhandling me ? max : oh . the way you manhandled me ? aah . is there -- is there a mark ? sonny : julian jerome is a liar and a fraud . why would you believe anything he says ? sam : he just said that you were gon na have him killed . is it true ? alexis : answer my daughter . julian : if you 're asking sonny to confirm his intention to commit murder , he ca n't do that . but i can assure you it 's true . sonny : consider the source . ava : you 're not denying it . we heard you . julian and i heard your voice , sonny . you ordered my brother 's execution for tonight -- here , right outside those doors . when julian walks out of the gallery , he 's gon na get a bullet in the back , courtesy , i presume , of your ex , shawn butler . julian : we have no future , sam -- not if sonny gets his way . sonny : `` future `` ? why would sam want a relationship with you ? julian : [ chuckles ] silas : well , that 's up to sam , is n't it ? although i could n't help but noticing that ava just confirmed that she and , uh -- was it julian now ? -- were listening to your conversations using the bug that morgan planted . ava : julian has a right to protect himself . sonny 's trying to off him . sonny : according to who ? julian ? but mr. jerome came to port charles under false pretenses and , you know , hiding under a different identity , blowing up my shipments . you know what else he did ? he assaulted a simple security guard . but i 'll tell you where you really messed up -- going after my son . alexis : he 's sam 's father . sonny : well , nobody knew that until wh -- before what , 15 minutes ago ? they 're the only two that knew that . silas : pretty convenient timing , or is the word `` advantageous `` ? julian : this -- this involves you how , doctor , exactly ? silas : well , i already missed my bus home , so i 'm just sort of an impartial observer , but that makes it pretty easy to pull apart your agenda . ava : his agenda is simple . it 's to stay alive . alexis : i want to talk to you outside now . sonny : no , i 'm not gon na go outside . sam may be his daughter , but you 're kristina 's mother . you want me to protect her , right ? that 's all -- that 's all i 'm doing is protecting my family . sam : what about my family ? this has nothing to do with me or my mom . this is about danny . molly : i 'm sure there is a perfectly good reason why shawn 's phone 's off . maybe it died , or maybe he 's in a meeting . tj : he 's not in any meeting . he 's on a job for sonny . molly : oh , well , my mom works for uncle sonny , and -- tj : she does n't carry a gun . molly , shawn 's not a lawyer . he 's a bodyguard . the whole point of his job is to get hurt so that sonny does n't . molly : i - i did n't realize that shawn 's job bothered you . it never seemed to before . tj : i do n't know . i just get the feeling that no one 's ever wanted to hurt sonny this bad before . carlos : oh , whoa ! ho - ho - ho - ho - ho . whoa . do n't shoot . do n't shoot . can i help you ? carly : oh . no , no , no . what the hell ? oh , my god . what am i doing ? [ sighs ] oh , my god . this ca n't happen . franco : um , okay . this ca n't happen . carly : i mean , what -- what am i thinking , here ? franco : i - i do n't -- i do n't know . carly : i mean , after everything that 's happened , this does n't make any sense , does it ? franco : no . i mean , you 're right . this does not make sense . you 're beautiful . you 're so beautiful . you 're amazing . i 'm ... carly : it 's not about pity , franco . it 's not at all about that . franco : okay , so what is it , then ? carly : i do n't know . i just have these feelings , okay ? i have these feelings , and i - i want you . i want you . franco : you know how i feel about you . carly : but i keep trying to fight it . i 'm trying to fight this attraction and pretend like it does n't exist . i tried to distract myself with derek . franco : okay , can we please not talk about derek ? carly : clearly , that did n't work because i 'm standing here , franco . i 'm here . franco : look , whatever -- whatever argument you are having with yourself -- this fight between two parts of yourself -- which , believe me , i - i - i understand and -- and must have been terrible -- it 's over now . carly : it 's just beginning . franco : what ? why ? carly , why ? why ? if you can get past the fact that i 'm a product of lunatic parents -- that -- that -- that i 'm an artist completely devoid of talent and ability -- if you can get past the fact that i 'm completely broken , what is it ? what 's stopping you ? carly : 'cause of what you did to my daughter ... and my son . kiki : morgan , what have you done to michael ? ! morgan : get off my back , okay ? ! i was just defending myself ! he started it ! kiki : i do n't care if you were ! i do n't care who started it ! get him out ! help me get him out ! morgan ! oh , michael ! michael ! oh , my -- morgan : he 's fine . kiki : oh , thank god ! thank god ! michael . michael . come on . help me get him out ! you have to go get him ! morgan : he does n't need me ! has you ! you get him out ! kiki : morgan ! morgan , you ca n't leave him ! michael ! michael ! honey ! honey , come here . come on . come on . i 'm right here . swim towards the ladder . come on . -come on , michael . michael ! kiki : help ! help ! help ! somebody help me ! please ! please ! there 's a man in the water ! oh , my god . michael ! [ panting ] i 'm coming in ! michael ! franco : oh . what i did to michael . what happened to him in prison . carly : he was raped . franco : because of me . carly : okay , i get it . i get that you did n't mean for michael to get hurt and -- and that you just were playing some sick game with jason , okay ? i - i know that . franco : i was stupid . i was arrogant to think that i could control things in this world . in my own misguided way , i thought i was trying to protect michael . i thought i was keeping him safe . but if you believe anything that i 've ever told you , you have to believe this -- i never meant for michael to get hurt . carly : i believe you . franco : that 's not enough . it 's not , is it ? it 's like you said to me in court -- when they removed that tumor , it 's not like they absolved me of all of my sins . [ chuckles ] you still do n't trust me with your children . [ sniffles ] [ sighs ] carly : i do n't know . i do n't know . franco : well , look . hey , if you do n't know , i 'll take it , 'cause that means there 's a chance , right ? carly : franco . franco : carly ? all right , what can i do ? what -- what can i do -- what can i do to prove myself to you ? carly : how could you prove it to me ? what -- what -- i do n't know . what could you do to prove that to me ? franco : all of the horrible things that i did in my life -- okay , i look back on them now , and it -- it 's like someone else did them . it 's very hard for me to explain . when i woke up from that surgery and you were there , it 's like you woke me up . it 's like i woke up . carly : okay , you just told me that -- that it was n't the tumor -- that the darkness started a long time ago when you were young . what if that comes back ? franco : i am terrified of that . carly : [ sighs ] franco : i am . but i do n't think it 'll happen , carly . i do n't . carly : the people you hurt were my family and my friends . franco : mm - hmm . carly : i mean , if i were to be with you , that would take such a leap of faith ... franco : exactly . carly : ... for me to trust that you would never hurt them again . franco : please . carly : i 'm sorry . man , i want you . i want you . but i ca n't . i ca n't . franco : hey . let her go . let her go . let her go . let her go . let her go . let her go . let her go . molly : try not to worry . shawn is a capable guy . he was trained to fight , and he knows how to protect himself . tj : all right . molly : he 's gon na be okay . tj : i know . it 's just shawn 's really been there for me , unlike my mom , who ca n't even bring herself to visit . i mean , shawn 's the closest thing i got to family , so if something happens to him -- if i lose him -- i 've got nothing . molly : you have me . tj : you 're right . come here . [ sighs ] shawn : who are you ? carlos : i 'm gallery security . now , do you mind putting that thing away ? shawn : well , this is n't louvre , so why does the jerome gallery need an armed guard ? carlos : how do you know i 'm armed ? shawn : call it a gift . carlos : the paintings are done by a guy named franco . he 's got a very strange following . we ca n't be too careful . shawn : so , are you protecting franco or derek wells ? but we both know that 's not his real name , right ? carlos : oh , you 've done your homework . still , if you want to go in the gallery , you got to check the weapon . shawn : who says i 'm going inside ? carlos : oh , what 's wrong ? not a fan of art ... mr . butler ? shawn : oh , you know my name . carlos : yeah , i did my homework -- familiarized myself with all the corinthos employees . now , come on . the gun . shawn : you know , i do n't really care too much for contemporary art . carlos : oh , okay . well , then you got no business here . so let 's say our `` good nights , `` and you can be on your way . shawn : and what if i want to stay ? sonny : danny has nothing to do with this . sam : no , sonny , it is has everything to do with danny . sonny : listen , julian is danny 's grandfather , just like a.j . is michael 's father . they supply the material , but there 's no connection . alexis : in danny 's case , that may be all that matters . sam : no , no , no . you guys , julian donated the marrow that saved danny . if his leukemia reoccurs , i 'm gon na need him again . needing another donor -- we searched for months -- it 's gon na be like having lightning strike twice . it 's not gon na happen . ava : what my niece is trying to tell you , sonny , is that if you kill my brother , you could be killing danny , as well . sonny : nothing 's gon na happen to danny . sam : not as long as julian , my father , lives . he just agreed to go to the hospital tomorrow . silas is working on a procedure to bank some marrow to keep it on hand just in case danny ever gets sick again . sonny : he agreed to it ? just right -- he agreed to it ? sam : i asked him earlier . alexis : so whatever you have planned , drop it . sonny : okay , you know what , uh , doctor ? i just want to confirm something . danny is fine at the moment ? silas : he 's in remission , but if he has a relapse , he 'll need more bone marrow . ava : my brother 's bone marrow . so , you can roll the dice , sonny . silas , what are the chances that danny 's leukemia will return ? silas : the five - year survival rate is just over 85 % . ava : 85 % . and danny 's what ? 2 ? so then , when he 's in the second grade , getting ready for reading and writing and soccer , there 's a 15 % chance that he 'll get sick again . silas : shut up , ava . ava : and then again when he 's 12 , getting ready for his first kiss , and 17 , applying to colleges , and 22 , getting ready to graduate . sonny : i get the point . ava : do you ? is 15 % an acceptable chance to take on the son of jason morgan ? max : i know you care about the boss . olivia : [ sighs ] max : and i know he cares about you , too . olivia : sonny 's just been through so much . any -- any feelings we had -- a romantic attraction -- i just had to put it aside -- you know , wait for him to heal . [ sighs ] maybe he 's ready . but what if our moment came and went ? sonny : i 'd never do anything to hurt danny . sam : i know . thank you , sonny . julian : i 'm sure we 're all grateful . sonny : you -- you know what dr. clay said about , um , the timing is to your advantage ? he 's right . julian : not sure i follow . sonny : well , you say you 're in fear of your life , but you 're not , because as long as danny 's alive , he 's like your insurance policy , is n't he ? i 'm sorry . uh , you know , he 's in -- he -- he says he wants to , you know , be a part of danny 's life , his future , and everything , but he -- he -- he wo n't donate bone marrow in advance 'cause it would n't be to his advantage . he would n't have leverage . you understand ? sam : `` leverage `` ? sonny : well , just in case . just saying -- accidents happen . slip and fall in a bathtub . your tire blows out . you fall on a knife in the kitchen . you know , 'cause they do say that , uh -- that 's the most dangerous room in the house . julian : you all realize that , uh , sonny is threatening me , right ? son : see , julian thinks he 's safe from all the accidents as long as danny needs him to live , which makes danny a hostage . and morgan a hostage , right ? ava : do n't listen to that , sam . my brother loves danny , and you know that . he saved his life . sonny : okay . let me tell you something . if i was your father , i would do anything to get those tests done . your mother would do the same thing . we could crawl on glass . we would -- every ounce of blood we would give . but i want to tell you right now -- he 's not going to the hospital . he 's not going tomorrow , the next day , or the next day . sam : you -- you told us that you were willing to help danny . you would let silas run the tests . are you gon na do that tomorrow , or is sonny right ? shawn : stand down . carlos : i 'm sorry , mr. butler , but i 'm afraid i ca n't do that . shawn : then we have a problem ... [ door opens ] shawn : ... and it 's gon na get a very ugly solution . sonny ? sonny : you can leave . shawn : you sure about that ? i got this . sonny : no , no , no . it 's -- it 's -- it 's over . kiki : [ coughing , gasping ] michael . [ footsteps approaching ] carly : kiki . kiki , what are you doing in the water ? kiki : [ coughing , gasping ] help ! help ! help me ! carly : oh , my -- it 's freezing . kiki : [ panting ] mi -- [ groans ] carly : oh , god ! franco : it 's okay . kiki : mi -- michael 's in the water ! carly : what ? ! kiki : he 's in the water ! carly : michael 's in the water ? ! kiki : he hit his head , and i ca n't get him out . i ca n't find him . carly : i 'm at pier 52 , and my son just went in the water , and he hit his head , and he went under , and my friend jumped in to try and find him , and now we ca n't see either one of them , and the water is freezing . kiki : franco 's got him ! franco 's got him ! carly , franco has him ! carly : michael ? are you okay ? kiki : franco ! [ groans ] carlos : i think your boss just told you you need to get out of here . shawn : you know , i did n't catch your name . carlos : i did n't give it . shawn : how about we just call you `` dead man walking `` ? carlos : i prefer `` carlos . `` shawn : right . you know , just so we have an understanding , me knowing your name does n't alter your future . the only thing that 's gon na save you is you ditching your boss . carlos : well , now , that would n't be very loyal , would it ? you see , i 'm paid to provide protection ... among other things , and seeing how our employers ' interests are on a collision course ... shawn : oh , so are we . carlos : ... i think i 'll be seeing more of you , shawn . shawn : nah . you wo n't even see me coming ... at all . olivia : sonny . oh , thank god . max : how 'd it go , boss ? sonny : it did n't . thanks for keeping , uh , olivia company . um ... okay , can you get a first aid for whatever happened to your eye ? max : uh , do you want me to do a quick perimeter check ? sonny : not necessary . max : okay . uh ... [ clears throat ] olivia : so , what happened with julian jerome ? sonny : nothing . not a damn thing . olivia : i do n't understand . sonny : it 's just -- it 's very simple .

nick had a wistful moment as he stared at pictures of him with his parents during happier times . nick had chelsea redecorate faith 's room while she was at camp . nick decided to let faith have a relationship with victor , even though victor had disowned him . chelsea commiserated with nick , because her father , jeffrey wanted nothing to do with her either . nick and chelsea steamed things up in the shower . victor was emotionless when nikki informed him that she 'd moved out of the ranch and into a penthouse at a hotel . nikki assured victor that they would always be family . victor exploded and argued that families were loyal and appreciative , unlike nikki and nick . nikki urged victor to end the feud with nick , but victor was not interested in her opinion . victor bitterly wished nikki luck living without him . she confidently announced that she would . scott comforted sharon , who was worried about crystal . victor asked abby to make sure scott dressed appropriately for the company photo . abby bickered with scott as she relayed the message . scott bristled at abby 's instructions to dress himself up , but sharon encouraged scott to adopt a more polished look for the photo . sharon gave scott a shave . a desperate tessa asked zack to use his contacts to help her sister , crystal escape forced prostitution . zack apologetically explained that he cut ties with his old contacts when he made a new life for himself . zack privately called someone and stated that things had changed , so they had to move right away . noah was alarmed that sharon had been directly involved in the attempt to rescue crystal . mariah assured him that sharon was going to let the police handle it from now on . noah asked mariah if tessa could move into the cottage . mariah said it was okay with her , since it was okay with sharon . noah explained that he did n't ask tessa to move in with him because he did n't want to fall into his old habit of getting serious too quickly . tessa started crying after wondering why she was so much luckier than other people , and this concerned mariah .
<s>[INST] ( the second half is missing ... we will put it up in a little while ) chelsea : for the trim in faith 's room , do you think we should go with powder white or powder puff ? i mean , it does n't match the paint in the upstairs hallway , but i figure with the fabrics i chose ... oh , that 's a sweet picture . do you remember where that was taken ? nick : i do n't know . it 's one of faith 's favorites , though , or it would be packed away in a box by now . chelsea : because victor 's in it ? nick : the guy kicked me out of his life , and i still have pictures of him in my living room . chelsea : because you are a great dad and you love faith and you want her to be happy . that 's why you 're surprising her by re - decorating her room while she 's at camp . nick : yeah , well , when she gets home , she 's gon na want to spend time with her grandpa the way she always did . chelsea : yeah . how are you gon na handle that ? nick : i 'm not gon na try and stop it , but i 'm wondering how much nastiness i 'm gon na have to endure while my daughter preserves her relationship with her grandpa . abby : i will have legal get started on these contracts . is that it ? victor : one last thing . um , i 've called a photographer to take some new headshots of the executives . abby : oh , why do we need new ones ? victor : because i 've restructured the company , and the photos will reflect that . and you , by the way , have a new leadership role .

it 's important to my dad . although , we probably wo n't need your picture since you 'll be running your division straight into the ground . scott : [ scoffs ] thanks for the vote of confidence . abby : face it , scott . whatever you have going on will never equal what zack and i are doing , okay ? my tech incubator is going to run rings around your lame - o digital whatever - it - is . scott : [ groans ] zack : i did n't even know you had -- i did n't know you had a sister . tessa : crystal . she ran away from home , and now she 's mixed up with some really bad stuff . she 's being held against her will and being forced to have sex with guys for -- for money . zack : she 's a hooker ? tessa : not by choice . zack : that 's horrible , but why 'd you come to me ? what am i supposed to do ? tessa : you have contacts ... in chicago . maybe somebody knows something , just -- anything . zack : sorry . tessa , i mean that . i wish i could help , but i knew anything , i would tell you . but when i walked away from all of that , i cut ties . i swore i 'd never look back , and i haven't . i have a new life now . tessa : so you said . zack : have you got to the cops ? tessa : i did n't have to . they already know . zack : look . keep the faith . i 'm sure with all their resources , the police will find her . tessa : i really hope so , zack . thank you for listening . i 'm such a wreck . zack : anyone would be . tessa . good luck . it 's me . things have change . you need to move right away . noah : mom can not be going off on her own like that , messing with criminals , trying to save people . that 's dangerous ! she could get hurt ! she has no training . it 's -- mariah : noah . mom 's fine . okay ? and she 's not gon na do it again . noah : how do you know ? mariah : because i think she learned her lesson , plus she agreed to let the police handle it from here on out . noah : good , i hope you 're right . um , anyway , hey , listen , i 'm glad you stopped by . i , uh , need to ask you something . mariah : okay . shoot . noah : uh , i do n't know if anybody mentioned this to you , but nikki left victor . mariah : what ? ! noah : yeah , she moved out of the ranch . mariah : oh , wow . noah : anyway , now that grandma 's gone , i 'm sure that tessa does n't want to live in that big house with just grandpa there . so i asked mom if it 's okay if she stays at her place until she gets enough money to get her own apartment , and mom said it 's cool as long as it 's okay with you . so ... what do you say ? scott : where does she get off snarking at me because i do n't care about some vapid photo shoot ? it 's as if nothing matters except how you look . sharon : so you 're gon na go like that ? scott : what ? they told me to wear a suit . i 'm wearing a suit . also , have you been listening to anything i 'm saying ? sharon : every word . having some experience in the corporate realm , there are some levels of protocol that you should ... follow . scott : protocol . meaning ? sharon : well , first things first . strip down . scott : what ? sharon : the jacket , the shirt , the tie -- give them to me . scott : eh , i do n't understand . sharon : just do what i 'm telling you . nikki : there 's a new hotel in town called the sanctuary . i 've booked the penthouse for an indefinite stay . that way , you wo n't ever have to run into me at the ranch . victor : so ? nikki : so ? is n't that what you wanted ? when you left town , the last thing you said to me was `` goodbye and good riddance . `` victor : after you told me how sick and tired you were of pretending that we had a happy marriage . nikki : yes , and i still am . this separation is exactly what i need . victor : well , good for you . nikki : look , we have children , we have grandchildren . we will always be family . we will always share that bond . victor : stop talking about family , for heaven 's sake ! family to me are people who appreciate what i 've done for them , not people who are disloyal ! nikki : are you talking about me now ? victor : yes ! nikki : or nicholas ? victor : i 'm talking about you ! and nicholas ! all of you ! chelsea : i 've been through what you 're going through , you know . with jeffrey . at first , he tried to deny that i was even his , and then when that did n't work , he went through the motions of being my dad , but then when he realized i was n't gon na be able to give him anything , he took off to france , and i have n't heard from him since , so ... how 's that for being disowned ? nick : that 's a hell of a thing to have in common . chelsea : yeah , well , i mean , we do and we don't . connor , he was n't old enough to get to know jeffrey , whereas faith -- she adores her grandfather . besides , unless you 're planning to leave genoa city altogether , do you really think that you 're gon na be able to live a victor - free life ? nick : you 're right . i mean , a lot of those pictures are during some pretty happy times . in fact , noah took a lot of them when he was in his photography phase . chelsea : yeah , and they 're special ! they 're special to you and your entire family . i mean , those memories are n't just gon na go away . they 're always gon na be with you . nick : yeah . so much of my life is in those photos . i bet one or two makes it up to faith 's new room . chelsea : yeah . faith 's new room . i hope she likes it . nick : are you kidding me ? what you did with that space is amazing . she 's gon na love every square inch of it . chelsea : it was the best way i knew to reach out to her . nick : you changed her room from `` little girl decor `` to `` official tweendom coolness . `` chelsea : oh , okay ! is that what the kids are calling it these days ? nick : i do n't know , but i just know i can not wait to see her face . chelsea : hmm . nick : speaking of face , you either have some , uh , alabaster moonlight or maybe cotton candy . chelsea : where ? nick : yeah , it 's like right here . let me just , uh ... it 's -- it 's not coming all the way off . chelsea : it 's water - based . nick : maybe you should take another shower . chelsea : maybe you should join me . nick : yeah , i probably should do that . chelsea : i think maybe you should , too . i think you might have some paint somewhere , too . nick : yeah ? chelsea : mm - hmm . mmm . okay . well ... beat you to the shower . nick : oh ! chelsea : [ giggles ] jack : excellent . see that i get all copies . mother ! how 's your new office working out ? dina : well , it faces east , and i have the sun in my face all morning . jack : well , there are blinds in the windows . dina : that block the view ! and this computer -- jack : brand - new , mother . fresh out of the box . state - of - the - art . dina : with no internet . jack : well , we can set that up , too , once we set up your password . dina : well , that should have been already done . when i ran mergeron , nothing like this would have fallen through the cracks . gloria : [ giggles ] dina : did i say something funny , dear ?

georgie : do you mean admitting the agony of defeat ? lucas : well , you must have a line of people waiting to say `` i told you so . `` georgie : dillon and i do n't care about them . we are more concerned with what 's best for our relationship . everyone else can take a flying leap . lucas : that 's what i wanted to hear . georgie : you know , it 's funny . i used to think that being married to dillon meant that i would have all the time in the entire world with him , more than i could stand , but the reality was just the opposite . we would catch glimpses of each other just before we 'd pass out from exhaustion . oh , another marriage misconception -- beds are not made for anything other than sleeping . lucas : so you fell into the whole `` love equals marriage `` myth , hmm ?

and then you -- you can be completely in control and you can be the big hero and pay all my bills . elizabeth : oh , lucky , that is not fair . you are hurt , you are in pain which has got to be why you 're so hostile and angry . lucky : no , i am angry and hostile because i am tired of the two of you treating me like i 'm a 5-year - old ! elizabeth : why is he so angry with me when all i 'm trying to do help him ? maxie : vanilla vodka , please . colen : n : sweet with a kick -- just like you , maxie . diego : hey , coleman ? does it bother you at all that maxie 's underage ? coleman : well , i have a little belief system . number one on the list , everybody minds their own business , which is why i let you freelance for me , no questions asked , diego . diego : listen , i would really appreciate it if you did n't broadcast our little arrangement . coleman : then do n't call me out in front of people . diego : that 's fair . what 's the preferred car for this week ?

you and elizabeth are practically reading from the same script . nikolas : well , if you mean that we both care about you , yeah . i have no argument with that . lucky : i mean , after all , why would the two of you wt me to be productive , i mean , i -- when i 'm doing nothing but sitting on my butt ? and then you -- you can be completely in control and you can be the big hero and pay all my bills . elizabeth : oh , lucky , that is not fair . you are hurt , you are in pain which has got to be why you 're so hostile and angry . lucky : no , i am angry and hostile because i am tired of the two of you treating me like i 'm a 5-year - old ! elizabeth : why is he so angry with me when all i 'm trying to do help him ?

[ sniffles ] dylan : i know he was lying about his ability to walk . avery : yeah , that was what started it , but then it got worse , and -- and i threw him out . but then i was worried that he would come back , and i just -- i could n't -- i could n't stay there after his threat . dylan : his threat ? what threat ? avery : he said he was gon na tell the police that i pushed him off the balcony on purpose . dylan : but you did n't do it on purpose . avery : it 's his word against mine . dylan : well , i 'm sure you could explain what happened . avery : and what if a jury believes joe ? there 's plenty of evidence that i wanted him out of genoa city before the accident , and i was n't gon na sit in my apartment waiting to be arrested ! dylan : this does n't make any sense . avery : what does n't make any sense ? dylan : none of it . you 're not the kind of person who runs from something like this . you did n't run when you were targeted for your work at the innocence foundation or -- or after the cooking show when you got the online threats . avery : you 're right . but in both those cases , i was fighting an unknown person . maybe i should have been scared , but i was n't . not the way that joe scared me last night . marco : we 're still waiting for ashley to come out of surgery . stitch is observing . kyle : what ? in the or . ? billy : yeah , the surgeon okayed it . kyle : and where 's abby ? billy : uh , she 's in the chapel . summer : kyle and i have been praying for ashley ever since my mom told us the news . marco : any word on your aunt avery ? summer : uh , no , she 's still missing . i 'm really worried about her , jack , and so is my mom . marco : i know . i know . come here . abby : kyle . kyle : oh , abby . abby : thanks for coming . kyle : of course . are you okay ? billy : stitch . abby : is mom okay ? stitch : surgery went well . ashley 's in recovery . she 's gon na need to be monitored closely , but dr. akino has every reason to believe she 's gon na be fine . marco : hallelujah . kyle : that 's good of them to let you in there even though you 're not on staff anymore . stitch : yeah , doctor wanted what was best for her . i 'm just glad i got to be there for her . abby : me , too . jack : yes . marisa : so you 're just going to send marco off to a killer ? that 's not very honorable . captain : honor ? oh , i apologize , your majesty . honor . how did you think this was going to end , huh ? i 'm just sorry i wo n't have the opportunity to kill him myself . i will enjoy telling him what awaits . [ coughing ] paul : he went straight back to his hotel room ? did he talk to anyone ? okay , you stay on him . i want to know every move joe clark makes . phyllis : another explanation ? okay , what is it ? joe : you know , i have no idea , but there has to be one because i 'm not involved in any way . phyllis : what -- what is all this double talk ? could you tell the truth if you wanted to ? you know what ? stop . sharon : back off , phyllis . joe did n't do anything to avery . phyllis : well , is n't this rich ? it 's a meeting of the pathological liars club . sharon : he 's not lying . avery is n't missing . she 's with dylan at the coffeehouse . avery : joe is dangerous . dylan , i do n't have to remind you that he paid people to beat you up . dylan : did joe do that ? avery : it 's not the first time . when we were married ... dylan : he used to hit you ? avery , you never -- you never told me . i mean , all the time we were together , even back then when you were still married to the guy , how could i not know ? avery : it was only one time . dylan : one time ? one time too many ! avery : i was ashamed , okay ? i - i - i never think about it . [ sniffles ] and i blocked it from my head . even now , i do n't want to talk about it . but after last night , there is no telling what joe will do next . dylan : you do n't have to worry about that . i 'll keep you safe . avery : i know you mean that , dylan . but joe has gotten away with everything . he is clever . he knows how to not get caught . and you ca n't help me . not now . the only person that can help me is myself . dylan : avery -- avery : no , i know i said that i was n't thinking clearly before , but i - i am now , and the only choice that i have ... is to leave town . i need to say goodbye . abby : she looks really pretty , even like this . stitch : from every indication , she 's gon na make a full recovery . abby : really and truly ? stitch : yeah . as far as the doctors can tell . yeah . abby : [ sighs ] stitch : dr. akino seems confident . kyle : got to say , i 'm amazed at how fast this all happened . billy : yeah , me , too . i 'm just grateful they caught it in time and talked ashley into having the surgery . marco : when ashley wakes up , i have just the get - well gift lined up for her . kyle : what ? you gon na fly aunt traci in ? marco : actually , better than that . i have a plan for the company . billy : yeah ? what 's the -- summer : hey , um , i 'm sorry to interrupt . i just wanted to say how happy i am about the way things turned out for ashley . kyle : thanks . yeah , so are we . billy : she thinks a lot of you , summer . summer : it goes both ways . marco : well , when ashley comes to , i 'll make sure she knows you were asking about her . summer : thanks , jack . thanks . marco : gentlemen , it is time to overthrow the king , to get victor out of the picture , to take this company entirely for ourselves . kyle : yes ! billy : it is about damn time . summer : hey . victoria : what 's up with those three ? summer : oh , um , they 're celebrating ashley 's recovery . i think . victoria : you think ? summer : yeah , no , they stopped talking as soon as i walked over . i guess they 're too macho to let me see how relieved they are . victoria : yeah , i guess so . summer : you know , i 'm gon na call my mom and tell her about ashley and get an update on avery . victoria : okay . victor : still think i 'm wrong ? victoria : i 'm beginning to wonder , seeing jack with billy and kyle . i get the distinct impression that they 're up to something . victor : trust your instincts , okay ? captain : rookie ! i need your help ! there 's a fire here ! [ coughs ] ooh ! jack : thank you , mr. churchwell . marisa : [ gasps ] you set the hold on fire ? ! jack : it 's gon na take the crew awhile to put this out . we do n't have much time . marisa : much time for what ? jack : to get the hell off this boat ! go ! [ door closes ] [ next_on ] phyllis : pack up and get out before someone really messes up that pretty , little face of yours . lauren : i hate not being able to make eye contact with you over a harmless , little kiss . lily : you kissed my husband ? ! cane : you want me to sleep with your wife ? michael : i want my wife to be happy .
ashley is rushed into surgery to repair bleeding in her brain , but since it was caught in time , she is expected to make a full recovery . billy and victoria admit that they still care about each other and promise to talk about the situation later . victor and victoria suspect fake jack ( marco ) is planning to double cross them , and they are right , because fake jack tells billy and kyle that it is time to push victor out of the company . dylan and phyllis both think that joe is responsible for avery 's disappearance so paul questions joe who tells him that he and avery had an argument , and he decided to move out of her house . avery shows up at the coffeehouse where dylan comforts her and sharon sees them together . avery tells dylan about her argument with joe , and she says she must leave town because joe is being violent again just like when he hit her once when they were married .
<s>[INST] sharon : dylan , dylan , stop it , stop it . he 's not worth it . joe : maybe i should press charges . dylan : yeah , go ahead . sharon : you 're forgetting who dylan 's father is . he 'll laugh you right out of the office . joe : you ca n't just haul off and hit somebody in the jaw because you do n't like what they said . it 's assault , sharon , a crime . dylan : save us the civics lesson , joe . joe : you know , this temper of yours is gon na land you in hot water one of these days . dylan : hey , you want to play victim , go ahead , call the cops . but avery 's the real victim . maybe your victim . joe : that 's crazy . dylan : then you wo n't mind if i check your room to see if she 's there . joe : yeah , like hell you will ! paul : all right , i 've got some news . phyllis : about avery ? paul : we found her car out at concord lake . phyllis : thank god . marco : great . phyllis : she 's safe , right ? paul : we found her car , phyllis . but there 's no sign of avery . phyllis : where could she be ? billy : hey , where 's ash ? abby : how 'd you know she was here ? stitch : i texted him . your mom 's gon na want her family around even if she wo n't admit it . billy : you did n't say what was wrong . how bad is this ? abby : my mom has a brain aneurysm . billy : oh , my god . abby : yeah , she had a seizure last night , and we called the ambulance . they had her admitted , and then this morning she took off without telling anyone . we practically had to drag her here from work to finish the tests that they need . billy : that does n't sound like ash . stitch : i think she 's a lot more afraid than she 's letting on . abby : oh , here they come . hey , mom . ashley : hey . billy : hey . thanks , man . i came just as soon as i heard . ashley : yeah . bet i do n't have to ask who told you . abby : dr. akino , how 's my mom ? what did the tests say ? dr. akino : well , they confirmed the original diagnosis of dr. shelby . stitch : congenital aneurysm in the circle of willis . dr. akino : correct . we need to perform surgery as soon as possible . stitch : how soon can you schedule this ? ashley : wait a second . i did n't say i was gon na do it . [ footsteps approach ] victoria : [ sighs ] dad . victor : sorry if i startled you . victoria : no , i thought you might be jack . i wanted to go over some projections for the fashion division . victor : you can put that meeting on hold indefinitely . victoria : why ? victor : i think that man is about to double - cross us . victoria : jack ? i do n't understand , dad . i thought the merger was going so well . why would he want to rock the boat now ? victor : as illogical as that seems , i think that 's what he 's about to do . marisa : i promise you a night you 'll never forget . captain : you take me for a fool . i know your heart still belongs to this scoundrel . marisa : what do you care ? the rest of my body belongs to you . captain : let 's go to my cabin . marisa : after you . jack : [ grunts ] aah ! [ breathing heavily ] come on . [ sighs ] victoria : why are you suddenly so suspicious of jack ? has something happened that i do n't know about ? victor : well ... yeah , somewhat disturbing news . member of our accounting team came to me and told me that my new partner inquired about the availability of certain funds . victoria : jack is withdrawing money from newman - abbott ? victor : well , he has n't yet . but the fact that he 's inquiring is somewhat disturbing to me . victoria : i really do n't think we ought to assume the worst . i think we should go to jack to get to the bottom of it . victor : no . do n't let him know that we 're on to him , okay ? but why do n't you broach the subject with ashley , see what she knows without tipping our hand ? victoria : i would if i knew where she was . victor : why ? where would she be ? victoria : she 's supposed to be here , but we have n't crossed paths yet . she left me an urgent message saying that she wanted to talk to me about hex . it could n't wait until tomorrow morning . so i called the sitter and rushed in , and she 's nowhere to be seen . victor : that 's strange . totally unlike her . where could she be ? stitch : you have to have this surgery . ashley : i have n't said no . i just want to make sure what all my options are , that 's all . stitch : there are two . either you have the surgery or you 'll die . billy : wait , what ? is that true ? dr. akino : between 40 % and 50 % of ruptured aneurysms are fatal . only surgical intervention can stop the bleeding and prevent permanent brain damage or death . stitch : the bleeding led to the migraines and the seizure . you ca n't go on this way . abby : mom , i know that you are scared . we all are . but you have to do this . you have so much to live for , and i ca n't lose you . billy : ash , abby 's right . your family needs you , and that includes me . abby : and what about all of your work ? you have so much left to accomplish . ashley : okay . i get it . you -- you 'd prefer if i remain alive , and i 'm very grateful for that . i just -- i just want to know if i have all the relevant facts before i do this . can you understand that ? [ voice breaking ] i mean , this 40 % to 50 % fatality -- i do n't understand the methodology of those numbers . abby : mom . ashley : okay . i 'll do it . abby : [ sighs ] dr. akino : when was the last time you ate or drank anything ? ashley : last night . dr. akino : no coffee or water this morning ? ashley : no , but you 're not thinking about doing this right this second ? dr. akino : there is no time to waste . billy : ash , do n't argue . just -- just do it . abby : come on . we need you well again . ashley : okay , fine . dr. akino : i 'll make the arrangements . stitch : thanks . billy : thank you . stitch : hey , listen , i have n't had a chance to get ahold of jack . billy : yeah , yeah , i 've got it . ashley : [ sniffles ] we 're being stupid and we 're being silly . why are we making such a big deal out of this when it 's just gon na be fine ? abby : of course , you will . [ sniffles ] stitch : ash , you 're doing the right thing . ashley : when you say that , i - i kind of believe it . paul : all right , my officers were able to start avery 's car , but it died right away , so my guess is it 's the fuel pump . we 're having it towed to the impound lot . phyllis : forget about the car . how do we find my sister ? paul : phyllis , state patrol is searching the area all around the lake . so far , no one has spotted her . marco : sorry to interrupt . that was billy . ashley 's in the hospital with some kind of emergency . kyle : is she okay ? marco : i 'm gon na go there and find out right now , unless you want me to stay . phyllis : no , no , of course you should go . kyle : i 'll go with you , dad . marco : no , no , no , i think summer needs you here with her . if i find out anything , i 'll let you know . and if you hear from avery or ... phyllis : i 'll let you know right away . marco : all right . thanks . [ door opens ] phyllis : if avery 's car broke down , why would she not call for help ? why would she abandon the car ? summer : what if she was hurt , mom ? kyle : well , if she was , by now she would have turned up in a hospital somewhere , right ? paul : well , we 've checked all the ers within a 50-mile radius . and so far , no one answering avery 's description has been admitted . kyle : see ? your aunt 's gon na be okay . just like dad and i were after our accident . phyllis : trust me . avery 's disappearance is no accident . paul : we are going over avery 's car , but the officers that found it did n't report any signs of foul play . phyllis : what ? paul , of course there was foul play ! joe clark is the last person who saw avery alive . now you found the car but she 's not in it . why would she drive around in a remote area to begin with ? joe either chased her there or he took her there ! paul : phyllis , we are investigating . what we are not doing is jumping to conclusions . phyllis : [ sighs ] paul : so until we have more to go on , everything else is just speculation . i will keep you posted as it develops . thank you . summer : [ sighs ] so now we just wait ? phyllis : joe is involved in this . i know it . kyle : there definitely does n't seem much about this guy that you can trust . summer : no , there 's about a thousand things that i ca n't trust about this guy . phyllis : how about the fact that he 's a liar , he is a cheat , he is a stone- cold manipulator , and i know it . the last time avery and i spent some time together , we had some words . summer : you -- you argued ? about -- about what , mom ? phyllis : well , you know , about the usual . i was warning her about the jerk . we said some awful things to one another . and i do n't think i will ever forgive myself if i do n't get a chance to talk to her again . dylan : what are you afraid of ? what 's in your room you do n't want me to see ? joe : it 's none of your damn business . dylan : let 's see if the cops think it 's their business . [ cell phone rings ] dylan : well , there 's paul right now . hey , paul . good . you saved me a call . sharon : if you are as innocent as you claim , why do n't you just let dylan check your room ? you can prove that you had nothing to do with avery 's disappearance . joe : what does he think ? i got her tied up under my bed ? sharon : dylan ? what 's wrong ? dylan : they found avery 's car near concord lake . sharon : so , where is she ? dylan : they do n't know . you do n't seem surprised , joe . why is that ? marco : she 's being prepped for surgery now ? abby : it 's basically emergency surgery . billy : yeah , jack , i did n't want to alarm you with the details over the phone . marco : who else knows ? billy : i called traci . she 's traveling in switzerland , and , of course , she wanted to jump on the first plane , but i told her to wait till after the surgery when we knew more . marco : wow . the thought of something like this happening to ashley ... billy : i know , but she 's strong , and it 's not like this is her first major health crisis , so ... marco : right . billy : and i was still in high school , but i remember the big abbott family powwow we had to discuss it . stitch : what are we talking about ? abby : my mom 's a breast cancer survivor . you did n't know ? stitch : no , i had no idea . she 's obviously a fighter . billy : tough as they come . marco : i have a couple of phone calls i have to make . i 'll be right back . jack : [ strains ] aah ! god ! [ sighs ] i ca n't do it . i just ca n't . phyllis : hey . when has my jack abbott ever said `` i ca n't `` about anything ? jack : phyllis . oh , god , i missed you . i tried so hard to get back to you . when kelly told me you were dead , i ... phyllis : you believed her ? jack : i do n't know what 's true and what 's not anymore . i want to believe you 're alive , that you 're trying to find me ... [ voice breaking ] that you 're waiting for me . phyllis : the only way you 'll know that for sure is if you get out of here alive . i believe in you , jack . you have to believe in yourself and come home to me . jack : oh , red , i do n't know if i can do it . i ... [ breathing heavily ] [ inhales , exhales deeply ] yeah . [ panting ] [ grunts ] ah ! [ grunts ] [ breathing heavily ] marisa : [ gasps ] i left the captain drunk and asleep , but he 'll wake up soon -- your chains ! you got free ! jack : okay , we ca n't celebrate right now . marisa : you 're right . and i 'm afraid just breaking free wo n't help . there 's a guard outside with a gun . jack : there 's two of us . we can handle a guard . marisa : and the others on every deck ? and not only that , we 're at sea . there 's no place for us to go until we get closer to shore . jack : yeah , and the captain 's gon na hand me over to whoever paid the highest price . did you find anything more about that ? marisa : yes . i looked at his phone . he 's been texting with someone in america . jack : what was the area code ? do you remember ? marisa : 262 . jack : 262 is where i 'm from . [ breathing heavily ] someone is trying to save me , not kill me . we have to let them know . we have to find someway to let them know that i 'm alive . marisa : okay . victor : why did n't you tell me sooner ? abby : it 's just been a rough day , but i 'm glad you 're here . i do n't know how my mom will feel , but ... billy : if ash had it her way , no one would know . marco : she 's being very stoic . stitch : yeah , took a lot of work to get her to agree to the surgery . victoria : i know that ashley has a lot of support , but dad and i just thought the rest of the family could use some , too . marco : there she is . billy : hey . ashley : nothing brings our family together like corporate merger and a medical emergency , huh ? billy : hey , you 're in excellent hands . you know that , right ? ashley : just listen . if anything happens to me -- abby : no , do n't say that . ashley : just -- abby : no , you 're gon na be fine , okay ? ashley : just know that i love you , okay ? marco : abby 's right . no negative thoughts , okay ? abby : [ sighs ] stitch : hey , if it 's okay with you , i 'm gon na be in the or . cheering you on . ashley : okay , i 'd like that . stitch : then it 's settled . ashley : thank you . dr. akino : you 're welcome . let 's go . abby : i love you . ashley : i love you . victoria : hey . you 're being very brave . abby : oh . [ chuckles ] well , ben 's been really great . he 's amazingly calm , and , um , i do n't know if my mom would be in the hospital if it was n't for him . victoria : i 'm glad he could be there for you . abby : see , i - i do n't get that . victoria : do n't get what ? abby : how you can be so fine with us being together . i mean , i 'm happy that you are . do n't -- do n't get me wrong . it 's just -- i do n't know . one minute you and ben are living together , and then , out of nowhere , you guys broke up . victoria : it was n't really out of nowhere . abby : it seemed like it . victoria : abby , the reality is , is that from the beginning , ben and i knew that it was n't gon na last . abby : seriously ? victoria : i do n't know . i mean , we both denied it for as long as we could . it 's just funny . we started off at a gallop , and then things just kind of fizzled . and , i mean , i guess that 's why the breakup was so simple . you know , we were n't bitter . just like we understood that we needed each other for a certain time in our life , and then circumstances changed , and that time was over , and we drifted apart , and ...

angelina finally tells her father the truth about tricking kevin into marrying her . although she still loves him very much , she has to let him go because he loves chloe . gloria has a sudden cancellation of a wedding reception , which leaves her with gloworm all decorated , so angelo gets the idea to ask gloria to marry him tonight . the shock of hearing gloria say yes makes jeffrey remember that angelo kidnapped him and sent him to that jersey shore island where kevin and angelina found him . angelo wo n't have anything ruin his wedding to gloria , so he ties jeffrey up and locks him in the basement of gloworm . gloria asks chloe to be her maid of honor while angelo calls angelina and kevin to come to the wedding .

it 's too late . frank : what 's this all about ? tell your buddy . mallet : i just told you , frank ! frank : really ? you know what , is this ... this is about dinah , is n't it ? guess what ? i saw the look on her face when you left the party to find harley , and dinah ended up having a really rough night . mallet , you can make this work . i know it 's very hard to have a cop 's life and a relationship . no one knows it better than me , and i know you know that , too . and i also know .... come on , man , you can make this happen . you can make it work this time around . mallet : well , i 'm glad you think so , frank . regina , listen to me . i meant what i said . regina : who are we hurting ? your wife does n't even know . mallet : that 's not the point . that 's not the point . i love my wife ; i love harley . you and i got carried away . and that was one time . it 's not going to happen again . it 's not happening again . too many hours stuck on stakeouts . too many hours stuck in this van . regina : stuck ? mallet : listen , you 're a great girl , you 're a great partner , but i am not doing this to my wife , okay ? i hate what i 've already done . regina : honestly , you know what , forget it . mallet : that 's all right , cassie , i 'm sorry . look , if you 've got something to say , just can say it . cassie : i know that you and harley got close again , working together and then after gus died , it only made sense for her to turn to you . mallet : is there a but in all of this ? cassie : but , i mean , come on , going back again trying to make something work that did n't work the first time . you know that 's asking for trouble . and whatever regrets harley has about telling you to move on and to go with dinah , i think you 're both probably better off in the long wrong . do n't you think ? mallet : hold it , harley said she has regrets ? cassie : look , she told me in confidence you had said you would wait for her if she felt that there was a chance , and she said there was n't and you should move on with dinah . mallet : yeah , she said that . cassie : mallet , i think it was just too soon after gus . it 's the way things happen sometimes . i think she did n't want to keep you in limbo , but she is regretting cutting you loose . i do n't know -- i do n't even know why i 'm telling you this . mallet : why are you telling me all of this ? cassie : i do n't know , i guess i 'm thinking , why have regrets at all . life is short . they just hold you back . mallet : yeah , they kind of do , do n't they ? i think you 're right on that one . hey , thanks . thanks for talking to me . cassie : sure . mallet : thank you . i love you , and if you think -- harley : i do n't think anything , i know what i saw . mallet : well , i 'm not going to let you just walk away . harley : let me ? you 're not let me do anything . mallet : oh , you say that you love me , you say that you love me and that all goes right out the window . there 's no talking about it . there 's no explanation , huh ? you just turn it on ; turn it off . that 's it , done . not thinking about anything we 've had to go through to get here . harley : stop ! just stop for a second , okay . mallet : oh , baby , do n't you remember ? do n't you remember ? i remember the first time you told me that you loved me . harley : i was half frozen , i was delirious . and you saved me ? mallet : no , you saved me . harley : you were a different guy then , mallet . mallet : you were a different girl . my god , what happened to us ? what is this ? this is n't you ? what are you doing ? we 're playing house . what happened to the good times ? what happened to the girl who had that look on her face when i gave her my mother 's engagement ring ? the look on that girl 's face during our wedding . where is she ? harley : our wedding . i never let myself be that happy before . mallet : we can be those people again , you know , we can . come on , i 've got faith in us . i 've got faith in you . we can do this . come on . i wo n't let you go . i ca n't . not now , not ever . harley : stop it . stop it . mallet : come on , trust me . just give me another chance ! harley : no , i ca n't . why do n't you answer my question ? you tell me the truth . did you sleep with her ? yes or no ? mallet : no , baby , come on . harley : you liar ! you liar . do n't touch me . do n't say another word . you get out of here . mallet : baby -- harley : no . i do n't want to hear anything . you get out of here . get out ! mallet : i should have been honest with her , and i never should have left . should have faced it . i should have fought . i should have fought for us . i 'm ready to fight for you . i want you back . dinah : i want you out . get out . mallet : not this time . dinah : did you hear what i said ? you do n't belong here anymore . mallet : we 'll see . dinah : yeah , we are going to see . mallet , i 'm not playing games with you here . mallet : no games . dinah : that 's exactly right . you know what -- no ! we are finished , we are through . mallet ! you take your stuff , get all of your crap out of here , and face your obsession with harley ! when i get through with you , pieces of you are going to be in this garbage bag . mallet : you 're going to sit here , and i 'm going to hold you until you wake up and you figure it out . dinah : figure out what ? mallet : that we belong together . that we 're good together , and we make a great couple . it took me a while to know it , but you should know it , too . dinah : okay . i 'll give you a truth . mallet : really , just like that ? dinah : yeah , just let me up and we 'll talk about it , okay . but , come on , just let me go . mallet : okay . dinah : thank you . if you ever touch me again like that , you will be singing like bjork . do you understand me ? mallet : that was a really dirty trick . dinah : yes , get away from me , i told you . do n't even get near me . ouch , mallet , what are you doing ? you 're crazy , what are you doing ? ouch ! mallet : okay , just a guy who knows what he wants . dinah : you think bringing yourself back in here is going to fix everything ? mallet : i 'm not leaving : get used to it . dinah : what about harley ? mallet : it 's time to move forward . i 'm through looking back . dinah : let me tell you something , you walked through the wrong door . we 're through . we both know what you want and that 's harley . and if you ever had a choice , you would always go running back to her anyway . mallet : nope , not this time . dinah : so how do i know ? how do i know you 're not going to cheat on me the way you cheated on her . how can i ever trust you ever again ? mallet : because it already happened , that 's why . dinah : what ? mallet : because it already happened , that 's why . i 've already made that mistake . it was a big mistake . i slept with harley . but i 'm here now , dinah . i choose to be here . i choose to be with you . i want to be with you . dinah : when did it happen ? mallet : after gus died . it happened once , dinah . it was the night that it first hit harley that gus was gone , gone . and you and i were just getting started . and , um , harley was just sick with grief , not that that is any kind of an excuse . there 's no excuse . but she lost her husband , and i lost a partner . and she needed me . and we knew afterwards it was never going the happen again . because it was n't really about us . it was about gus . it was needing to feel that loss of him , needing to share it , needing comfort from that . it was n't about love between me and harley . because harley knows that gus is her one true love , and always will be . and i know that i love you . dinah : what ? mallet : you heard me . i said it because that 's what i feel ? and i 'll say it again and again and again . you come first with me and always will , starting right now . so you can yell at me , you can trash everything i own , but it 's not going to change one thing that i feel about you because i love you . i love you , dinah , i love everything about you , and i will take all of you . the wildness , and you 're unpredictable . your hands down the last person i dreamed i 'd end up with . and you 're hands down the first person i want to call with good news . and you 're the person i want by my side when things go wrong . and i want to be that person for you . will you let me be that person for you ? we 've had a rough time of it . we 've made some mistakes . but i will not make another mistake by losing you . dinah : why did you bother telling me all of this about harley after i sent you away ? mallet : i guess i 'm taking a risk . i guess i kind of learned that from you . and you know what you 're biggest risk was ? trusting me with your heart . after all of those times it has been broken . i 'm telling you the truth because i owe you the truth , and you deserve the truth . and you deserve everything a man can give you . and i want to be that man . so if you want to push me away , you can , but it 's not going to change about how i feel about you . not now , not ever . dinah : are you finished ? mallet : no , not yet . i know who i am . i know what i want . and i know when i see it . so i guess what i 'm saying is ... i guess what i 'm saying is i 'm here . i 'm in . what about you ? dinah : you say that harley is your past . mallet : she is . dinah : are you hers ? is she over you ? mallet : is she over me ? dinah : yeah , it 's difficult to know , is n't it ? i mean gus is gone , he is dead , and , um , she 's alone , and she turned to you once . how do i not know she 'll turn to you again ? mallet : dinah , dinah , where are you going ? dinah : i need to go do something . mallet : now ? dinah : yeah . something unpredictable . remember , that 's what you liked about me . mallet : yeah , but ... [ next_on ] gus : hey , how 's it hanging ? beth : i 'm doing what 's best for my child . dinah : mallet was definitely there for harley , gus , more than you know . i 'm going to take these beautiful ladies to lunch . have fun . alan : if you want to hang on to that little girlfriend of yours , gus is your problem , too . .
mallet arrives back at the suite to find dinah throwing him out for leaving the dinner party . he tries to reason with her but she is adamant . he goes to get drunk but when a woman hits on him , he starts to think back to his and harley 's time in florida , he remembers cheating on her with his partner . running into harley at the hospital , where she is to get supplies to care for gus , harley tells him that she ca n't be his partner anymore . mallet goes back to the suite where he tells dinah that he is not going anywhere . she punches him and he handcuffs her to a chair so she will listen . dinah wants to know how she knows that mallet wo n't cheat on her like he did harley and he tells her that it already happened and it wo n't happen again . he tells her that it was because of the grief over losing gus but tells her he wants to be completely honest with her . dinah asks how she will know that harley wo n't turn to him again and decides she has something that she needs to do . she leaves the suite and mallet follows in bewilderment .
<s>[INST] mallet : dinah , it 's me . dinah , are you okay ? are you in there ? dinah . dinah . i 'm sorry i left our dinner party early . it was a reflex , you know . it 's a cop thing . like you hear your partner might go off and do something potentially dangerous , and you ... is there something burning ? here . oh , man . okay , i messed up . okay , i messed up . bad call . it was a bad call , okay . but you know how harley is . i do n't need to tell you ; you 're a friend of hers . i do n't need to tell you how stubborn of a woman she is . right ? gus is dead , she tells me she is not going to go looking for him anymore . and then -- bang -- out of nowhere the phone rings . she tells me she 's got proof . she 's going to go try to find him ; she does n't need my help . and then ... ( dishes cracking and breaking ) ... and then the phone goes dead and i think she 's headed to big trouble . dinah : and was she ? mallet : what ? dinah : was harley all right ? was she in any trouble ? mallet : yes , she 's fine . she 's fine . and i 'm just glad to be back home here with you . i 'm just glad to be here with you . all right , let me help you clean up . what are you doing ? what -- whoa , whoa , whoa . what ' going on here ? dinah : these would be your things , yeah . excuse me . mallet : hold a second ! hold on a second . what -- dinah : no . i 'm sorry , and i do n't know why you 're so surprised . did you not get your messages ? mallet : you left me a message ? dinah : yeah . you 're the detective , right ? oh , no , no , do n't bother . i left you a message that i 'm out of here . mallet : wait , are you dumping me ? dinah : whoa ! bingo ! -- he 's catching on . mallet : wait . wait , wait . calm down . this is my room . come on -- no , this -- dinah : no , sorry . mallet : this is our room ! dinah : this was your room , then it was our room , and now it 's my room ! mallet : no , dinah . dinah : so you can leave now . mallet : do n't do this , okay . i 'm a cop . there will always be late - night emergencies . it 's what i do ; it 's my job ! dinah : we 're not talking about the damn job right now ! mallet : then what are we talking about ? dinah : you know what we 're talking about ? we 're talking about what we 're always thinking about , mallet , what we 're always thinking about . what we actually never talk about : you and harley .

you tell me the truth . did you sleep with her ? yes or no ? mallet : no , baby , come on . harley : you liar ! you liar . do n't touch me . do n't say another word . you get out of here . mallet : baby -- harley : no . i do n't want to hear anything . you get out of here . get out ! mallet : i should have been honest with her , and i never should have left . should have faced it . i should have fought . i should have fought for us . i 'm ready to fight for you . i want you back . dinah : i want you out . get out . mallet : not this time . dinah : did you hear what i said ? you do n't belong here anymore . mallet : we 'll see . dinah : yeah , we are going to see . mallet , i 'm not playing games with you here . mallet : no games . dinah : that 's exactly right . you know what -- no ! we are finished , we are through . mallet ! you take your stuff , get all of your crap out of here , and face your obsession with harley ! when i get through with you , pieces of you are going to be in this garbage bag . mallet : you 're going to sit here , and i 'm going to hold you until you wake up and you figure it out . dinah : figure out what ? mallet : that we belong together . that we 're good together , and we make a great couple . it took me a while to know it , but you should know it , too . dinah : okay . i 'll give you a truth . mallet : really , just like that ? dinah : yeah , just let me up and we 'll talk about it , okay . but , come on , just let me go . mallet : okay . dinah : thank you . if you ever touch me again like that , you will be singing like bjork . do you understand me ? mallet : that was a really dirty trick . dinah : yes , get away from me , i told you . do n't even get near me . ouch , mallet , what are you doing ? you 're crazy , what are you doing ? ouch ! mallet : okay , just a guy who knows what he wants . dinah : you think bringing yourself back in here is going to fix everything ? mallet : i 'm not leaving : get used to it . dinah : what about harley ? mallet : it 's time to move forward . i 'm through looking back . dinah : let me tell you something , you walked through the wrong door . we 're through . we both know what you want and that 's harley . and if you ever had a choice , you would always go running back to her anyway . mallet : nope , not this time . dinah : so how do i know ? how do i know you 're not going to cheat on me the way you cheated on her . how can i ever trust you ever again ? mallet : because it already happened , that 's why . dinah : what ? mallet : because it already happened , that 's why . i 've already made that mistake . it was a big mistake . i slept with harley . but i 'm here now , dinah . i choose to be here . i choose to be with you . i want to be with you . dinah : when did it happen ? mallet : after gus died . it happened once , dinah . it was the night that it first hit harley that gus was gone , gone . and you and i were just getting started . and , um , harley was just sick with grief , not that that is any kind of an excuse . there 's no excuse . but she lost her husband , and i lost a partner . and she needed me . and we knew afterwards it was never going the happen again . because it was n't really about us . it was about gus . it was needing to feel that loss of him , needing to share it , needing comfort from that . it was n't about love between me and harley . because harley knows that gus is her one true love , and always will be . and i know that i love you . dinah : what ? mallet : you heard me . i said it because that 's what i feel ? and i 'll say it again and again and again . you come first with me and always will , starting right now . so you can yell at me , you can trash everything i own , but it 's not going to change one thing that i feel about you because i love you . i love you , dinah , i love everything about you , and i will take all of you . the wildness , and you 're unpredictable . your hands down the last person i dreamed i 'd end up with . and you 're hands down the first person i want to call with good news . and you 're the person i want by my side when things go wrong . and i want to be that person for you . will you let me be that person for you ? we 've had a rough time of it . we 've made some mistakes . but i will not make another mistake by losing you . dinah : why did you bother telling me all of this about harley after i sent you away ? mallet : i guess i 'm taking a risk . i guess i kind of learned that from you . and you know what you 're biggest risk was ? trusting me with your heart . after all of those times it has been broken . i 'm telling you the truth because i owe you the truth , and you deserve the truth . and you deserve everything a man can give you . and i want to be that man . so if you want to push me away , you can , but it 's not going to change about how i feel about you . not now , not ever . dinah : are you finished ? mallet : no , not yet . i know who i am . i know what i want . and i know when i see it . so i guess what i 'm saying is ... i guess what i 'm saying is i 'm here . i 'm in . what about you ? dinah : you say that harley is your past . mallet : she is . dinah : are you hers ? is she over you ? mallet : is she over me ? dinah : yeah , it 's difficult to know , is n't it ? i mean gus is gone , he is dead , and , um , she 's alone , and she turned to you once . how do i not know she 'll turn to you again ? mallet : dinah , dinah , where are you going ? dinah : i need to go do something . mallet : now ? dinah : yeah . something unpredictable . remember , that 's what you liked about me . mallet : yeah , but ... [ next_on ] gus : hey , how 's it hanging ? beth : i 'm doing what 's best for my child . dinah : mallet was definitely there for harley , gus , more than you know . i 'm going to take these beautiful ladies to lunch . have fun . alan : if you want to hang on to that little girlfriend of yours , gus is your problem , too . .Summarize.[/INST]mallet arrives back at the suite to find dinah throwing him out for leaving the dinner party . he tries to reason with her but she is adamant . he goes to get drunk but when a woman hits on him , he starts to think back to his and harley 's time in florida , he remembers cheating on her with his partner . running into harley at the hospital , where she is to get supplies to care for gus , harley tells him that she ca n't be his partner anymore . mallet goes back to the suite where he tells dinah that he is not going anywhere . she punches him and he handcuffs her to a chair so she will listen . dinah wants to know how she knows that mallet wo n't cheat on her like he did harley and he tells her that it already happened and it wo n't happen again . he tells her that it was because of the grief over losing gus but tells her he wants to be completely honest with her . dinah asks how she will know that harley wo n't turn to him again and decides she has something that she needs to do . she leaves the suite and mallet follows in bewilderment .</s>

[ scene_break ] paul : so nick did n't tell you why the wedding was called off ? avery : no , but he made it sound like there was no reason to worry . i bumped into rick on the way out . paul : oh . how was that ? avery : it was unpleasant . you know , he actually -- he seemed amused to hear the wedding had been canceled . paul : ah . so we can add , uh , `` pettiness `` to his list of personal charms . avery : i 'm sorry . i should n't have mentioned anything . paul : no , it 's all right . heather and i were just talking about that . you know , we ca n't wear blinders where -- where ricky is concerned . avery : you know what you need ? a day at the spa . paul : ( laughs ) the spa ? avery : yeah . there 's nothing like a deep - tissue massage to eliminate tension and clear the mind . paul : well , i got ta admit , that has appeal for me right now . avery : all right , you should come with me . i was just gon na see if they have any last - minute appointments . paul : okay . avery : what is it ? do you now this man who 's missing ? paul : yeah , i used to . [ scene_break ] kevin : you keep pulling the same kind of stunts , you 're gon na get the same reaction . daisy : i just want to be accepted as a family member , which i am . i -- kevin : hey , i 'm the voice of experience , right ? i hurt people , but i was forgiven , but it took time . you had a chance today to show some patience , some compassion and understanding , and you blew it . you just pushed too hard . but , hey , you want to be a single mom again , you 're -- i mean , you 're practically there . ( scoffs ) [ scene_break ] nick : all right . she 's upstairs . she 's just freshening up . daniel : mm - hmm . how 's she doing ? nick : it 's tough . we were both very excited for this baby . daniel : um , daisy told me that she was here . nick : yeah . daniel : it got ugly , did n't it ? nick : there 's no way to connect it to the miscarriage , but to your mother , its cause and effect . the pain started once daisy left . daniel : i 'm so furious at her . you know , i really let her have it . hey . phyllis : hey . hey . daniel : mom ... phyllis : hmm ? daniel : come here . i 'm so sorry . hey , come here , sit down . you should n't be on your feet . sit down . phyllis : okay . daniel : you , um , you want something to eat ? can you eat anything ? phyllis : no , i 'm okay . i do n't have an appetite . i 'm okay . daniel : i was thinking of maybe getting you some of that frozen yogurt you like ... phyllis : ( chuckles ) daniel : or , um , one of those trashy novels you pretend you do n't read . phyllis : that -- that 's very sweet . thanks . phyllis : he 's amazing , my son . nick : listen , i 'm glad , uh , we 've got a minute to ourselves here , 'cause there 's something i 'd really like to ask you . [ scene_break ] paul : okay , so the employees at the manufacturing plant where tim was a security guard got concerned when he did n't show up for work . apparently , he never misses a day . they checked at home , and he was n't there . avery : any signs of foul play ? paul : uh , no , not that they 're saying . his boss reported him missing . avery : his boss , not his family or his friends ? hmm . paul : i better see what i can find out . avery : okay , so no massage for you . paul : rain check . avery : okay . ( laughs ) avery : hi , magda , it 's avery bailey clark . i was wondering if you had anything for this afternoon . i 'll take it . pencil me in . thanks . ( exhales sharply ) heather . heather : huh ? avery : hi . are you looking for your dad ? heather : yeah . avery : uh , he just left . he told me that you two were talking about -- heather : ricky . ricky : hey . avery : ( clears throat ) heather : i 'm -- i 'm glad i 'm running into you . uh , i understand you 're living in my apartment . ricky : yeah , yeah , yeah . it 's -- it 's a great place . i 'm loving it . ( chuckles ) heather : yeah , me , too . in fact , i still hold the lease . ricky : i had n't realized . heather : yeah , the -- the manager was renting it out while i was gone , and daisy did n't get anybody 's permission to sublet it again , so now that i 'm back , i hope -- i hope you 'll understand that i - i want my place back . ricky : yeah , yeah , of ... ( chuckles ) of course , of course i understand . um , it -- it just might be a little difficult for me to find someplace else right away . uh ... heather : mm - hmm . i - i could see where that would be a problem , but it 's not my problem . ricky : right . ( sighs ) okay , well ... i 'll make the necessary arrangements . ricky : ( sighs , clears throat ) [ scene_break ] lily : well , i really hope that your mom understands we were n't just being polite and we really do want to help her . cane : yeah , she knows , and she appreciates it , but i do think , you know , i do n't know , maybe she 's right , and it would be a bad idea if she stayed with us . lily : yeah , i might need a few more spa days , but i think we could have made it work . cane : mm . i love you for saying that . lily : ( laughs ) so what is your mother 's plan ? cane : you know what ? that is the million - dollar question . [ scene_break ] genevieve : have you considered my proposal ? kevin : i do n't know enough to consider it , other than the fact that it 's a little illegal . genevieve : shh . i need to know that you can be discreet . kevin : you already know that , or you would n't have told me this much . genevieve : okay , so here 's the deal -- most of my assets have been frozen . i do , however , have one account in switzerland that the feds do n't know about , but apparently someone else does , because it is being drained bit by bit . now i ca n't go to the authorities for assistance . kevin : ( sighs ) you want me to hack into the computer system . genevieve : find out where the money is going so i can put a stop to it , so really , if you think about it , you 're helping me to prevent crime . [ scene_break ] nick : depending on how you feel about it , i still would like to marry you today . phyllis : are you sure ? ( laughs ) really ? nick : this has been a tough loss . but we 're gon na get through it by facing it together , the way i want us to face everything , good and bad . so why wait ? i mean , unless you want , uh , the music and the flowers and the big party . phyllis : ( voice breaking ) i do n't want any of that . i just want you . nick : okay . phyllis : ( normal voice ) i do n't want to face a big crowd . nick : i think the kids should be here . phyllis : oh , yeah , of course . someone to make it official . ( laughs ) nick : that , i can handle . here , let 's see . kay : nicholas ? nick : uh , katherine , hi . kay : how are you ? how is phyllis ? nick : she is doing okay . ( rubs phyllis ' leg ) listen , um ... what are you doing today ? we need a favor . [ scene_break ] woman : he was civil , polite . not much for chitchat . this conversation we 're having right now is longer than any i ever had with mr. reid . paul : did you notice anything different or unusual lately , either with him or visitors he might have had ? woman : no -- well , actually , there were a couple of cars in the parking lot that i did n't recognize recently and i wondered who they belonged to , but not enough for sure to say it had anything to do with mr. reid . paul : right . can you describe those for me ? woman : um , one was an s.u.v . , black , big . it was really nice . paul : uh - huh . make or model ? woman : oh , sorry , no . oh , the other one was an s.u.v . , but it was smaller and green . [ paul remembering ] paul : i 've got an extra car you can use , if you want . ricky : oh , no , no , you do n't have to do that . paul : it 's just sitting there . ricky : okay . okay , thanks , yeah , thanks .

[ scene_break ] ricky : part of our deal , daisy , was you letting me take over your lease . now i find out you never cleared it with the manager . now this is a big problem for me , daisy , which makes it an even bigger problem for you . [ scene_break ] heather : see , i assumed that you and ricky were still allies . avery : ( scoffs ) he 's not even trying to hide it from me anymore , how machiavellian he is now . heather : you know , it 's breaking my dad 's heart . avery : i know . i know . it 's good that you 're here . listen , i hope things work out for you at the d.a .

( claps hands ) now then . dearly beloved , and , you know , i - i 've been to a lot of weddings where that phrase has never been more apt . this is n't merely a wedding , you know . it 's a forming of a family right before my very eyes . oh , good . keep 'em handy . we 're gon na need 'em . [ scene_break ] cane : you know , mom did say she has some cash available , but , you know , who knows how much ? lily : maybe she 'll get a job . cane : ( laughs ) yeah , right . who 's gon na trust her after what happened with the feds ? lily : well , there 's always pouring coffee at crimson lights . cane : you know what 's funny , though ? she said she had things under control , okay , but with no obvious legitimate options . i 'm just kind of worried about what trouble she 's gon na get herself into , you know ? [ scene_break ] kevin : ( clears throat ) it 's not worth the risk . genevieve : name your price . kevin : i would be violating international law . i have a family to look out for . genevieve : but that 's how i know that you 'll be very , very careful not to be caught . okay . you had your chance . i will find someone else who 's willing to make a quick fortune . thank you for the coffee , by the way . kevin : wait , wait , hold on . uh ... i 'll -- i 'll do it . [ scene_break ] paul : hello , ricky . ricky : dad . well , i guess you 're here to see heather , unless someone told you i was here . paul : no , actually , i 'm working on a case . ricky : oh . anything interesting ? paul : missing person . ricky : huh . well , that sounds serious . ( pats paul 's shoulder ) good luck . [ scene_break ] daisy : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] nick : i , nicholas , take you , phyllis , to be my wife , and i will love you from this day forward , in sickness and in health , in plenty and in want , in joy and in sorrow . phyllis : continue . do n't stop . nick : i will be faithful to you in every sense of the word for as long as we both shall live . phyllis : i , phyllis , take you , nicholas ...

( laughs ) nick : ( laughs ) phyllis : i will love you from this day forward , in sickness and in health , in plenty and in want , and i 'm not gon na say `` in joy and in sorrow . `` i 'm not gon na say it like that because after the sorrow , you -- you 've shown me there 's so much joy . i will always be faithful to you , and ... i have faith in you , and in us , as long as we both shall live . kay : i , um ... i hope you kids are listening , because they ... finally get it . because those promises of faithfulness , uh , that they 've just made -- they were n't about , uh , limits or self - denial . faithfulness is that ever - present awareness that you 're holding another person 's heart right in your hand . now that means that -- it does n't mean you have to lock yourself off somewhere and just gaze into one another 's souls . ( chuckles ) my god , i , uh , i - i - i would be bored -- uh , well , you would , too . you would be bored to death in -- in a week 's time . summer : ( laughs ) kay : ( laughs ) now it -- it 's , uh ... it 's a big , big universe out there . it 's beautiful . a lot of exciting people are in it ... new ideas . think about that . now if you 're a happy , healthy married couple , you 'll explore it , you 'll experience it -- separately and -- and together -- and then you will faithfully bring those exciting experiences into your marriage . outside of that , my dears , um , i only have one more piece of advice to give you . nick : and what 's that ? kay : kiss the bride . ( chuckles ) i now pronounce you husband and wife . ( applause ) well ... [ next_on ] ashley : i better get my things . cane : i think she has money stashed away somewhere lily : so how are you gon na find out ? kevin : somebody 's been stealing money from her . chloe : and ? kevin : and i 'm gon na figure out who . is n't that great ? chloe : unh - unh .
daisy tells daniel that she stopped by phyllis ' place to give her a wedding gift and they argued , but she does n't tell him that she heard phyllis yelling for help and decided not to help her . daniel is furious with daisy and tells her that she is impossible . he is also angry that daisy did n't honor his request to stay away from phyllis on her wedding day . kevin tells daisy she had a chance to earn daniel 's trust but she failed to be compassionate and understanding . phyllis tells nick that she started cramping after her argument with daisy , but she does n't blame anyone because she thinks karma is paying her back for her past sins . nick and phyllis decide to get married at the house with only their children present and katherine officiating the ceremony .
<s>[INST] nick : what are you telling me ? how did daisy make you lose the baby ? phyllis : it was right after she left that it happened . it happened right after she left . it 's -- it 's not a coincidence , and it 's -- it 's ... it 's what she said to me , you know ? she just -- she just kept on -- on -- on pushing me so hard ... nick : she -- she pushed you ? phyllis : she did n't push me , literally push me , but i - i just ... oh , i was so upset . i - i should n't -- i should have just closed the door on her face when she showed up with that stupid gift . nick : so she was upset she did n't get invited to the wedding ? phyllis : not at first , she was n't upset , but when she knew that she -- she was n't gon na be able to come , she just snapped . nick : what 'd she say ? phyllis : she was just saying things to upset me , and -- and , you know , we did n't get physical . i mean , there was just a little shoving . i was just trying to get her out of here . i mean , i - i would n't ... ( voice breaking ) i wouldn't- i would n't get physical . i mean , i would n't put the baby at risk . i did put the baby at risk , just by letting her in . nick : ( whispers ) hey . come here . [ scene_break ] daisy : she says it should n't be a problem . daniel : what ? daisy : the babysitter . she can take lucy for a while . daniel : oh . okay , good . daisy : it 's such awful news about your mom . daniel : yeah . today of all days , too , when she was so happy . [ daisy remembering ] daisy : you 're wrong about no one loving me now . phyllis : yeah , just get out of my house . get out -- daisy : no , you listen to me . phyllis : get out of my house . daisy : lucy loves me . she loves me more than anything in this whole world ! phyllis : get -- god , get out ! my god ! daisy : i will always have more than you , no matter how many replacement babies you try to crank out . phyllis : get out . get out ! daisy : you are pathetic , woman . leave me alone ! phyllis : get out of my house . oh , please help me . oh , the baby , the baby ! ( elevator bell dings ) phyllis : help me , please ! no , help me ! please , the baby ... [ scene_break ] daniel : well , mom should be back from the hospital by now , so i 'm gon na go check on her . daisy : wait , daniel . there 's something i should tell you about your mom , about what happened . [ scene_break ] noah : uh , any word from phyllis ? avery : uh , no . noah : it is kind of strange , though , canceling a wedding at the last minute without any kind of explanation . summer : ( laughs ) i bet mom just decided she 'd rather get married in a hot air balloon or something . noah : yeah , we 've learned to roll with it . summer : after lots of practice . avery : well , then i will learn from your good example . i should be going . noah : see you . avery : okay . ricky : wow . look at you . are you in someone 's wedding or something ? avery : uh ... ricky : oh . did phyllis and nick -- avery : no , they - m that was the plan , but , uh , they had to postpone . ricky : ohh . well , i 'm so sorry to hear that . avery : ( scoffs ) shut up , ricky . [ scene_break ] heather : so he says he 's gon na take me dancing , which -- it 's a great first date , right ? paul : yeah . heather : well , what he does n't say is that the dancing is part of a flash mob in the middle of times square . paul : ( laughs ) oh , no ! tell me there 's video . heather : there is a video , but you ca n't really see me because i come in at the end and its `` west side story , `` so i 'm mostly just like ... ( snapping fingers ) paul : ( laughs ) i ca n't believe you went along with that . heather : the show must go on . paul : yeah . okay , well , i 'm not sure that , um , genoa city 's nightlife will have that much excitement to offer . heather : yeah , that 's okay . i mean , it was pretty much the beginning of the end of my professional dancing career , and everyone can be very grateful for that . paul : i missed you . heather : yeah , i missed you , too . [ scene_break ] lily : hi . cane : hey . genevieve : hi . lily : well , this is lucky . cane : yeah , 'cause we were gon na stop by your place later . genevieve : uh , well , this is my place for now . um , the , uh , feds seized all my assets , including the house . lily : well , i think i 'll see if the spa can take me now , if you do n't mind keeping cane company genevieve : happy to . lily : okay , bye . cane : bye , baby . bye . genevieve : shall we ? cane : sure . genevieve : so how are you ? cane : uh , i 'm great , only because you sacrificed yourself so i would n't have to be deported . genevieve : i could n't have lived with that on my conscience . cane : but now you have to live with the consequences . genevieve : ethan , we both know that in the past , i 've chosen money and security over my children 's welfare , and the consequences of that ... ( sighs ) i 've made some really horrible mistakes in life , but i do learn from them ... eventually . ( chuckles ) [ scene_break ] paul : well , i 'm so glad you took the job . heather : you know , the fact that it was michael offering made the decision a lot easier . i know that he has faith in me . paul : well , the feeling is mutual , obviously . heather : oh , he 'll -- he 'll be a good d.a . you know , i know there are some people who will think it 's , i do n't know , ironic , given his history , but i think it 's a plus that he understands the darker side of human nature . heather : hey . where 'd you go ? thinking about ricky ? paul : yeah , he 's , um , never far from my thoughts these days . heather : look , whether or not he 's guilty of any crimes , you 're gon na have to accept the fact that he 's not capable of being the son nor the brother that we hoped for , and ... he probably never was . paul : well , at least your eyes are wide - open about that , and , uh ... you 'll protect yourself . heather : well , you can feel free to check in on me as much as you want . paul : you 're going to regret saying that . heather : mnh - mnh . i 'm gon na hit the gym . paul : okay . call you later . heather : i know you will . paul : ( chuckles ) ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] ricky : ( thinking ) `` phyllis newman exposed : the unauthorized biography . `` ( strikes key ) [ scene_break ] phyllis : it was n't intentional , right ? i mean , daisy was n't trying to make me miscarry , right ?

( sighs ) if i did n't have to deal with daisy , i mean , if i ... i did n't have all this stress with daisy and ricky ... nick : what about ricky ? phyllis : oh , ricky . ( sighs ) ricky is writing some tell - all book about me . he 's uncovering my past sins ... phyllis : which should take him a while . nick : look , he 's a jackass , and he does n't know when to quit . you should not be dealing with this right now . [ scene_break ] daisy : i went to your mom 's earlier , and i brought her a wedding gift . no , i wanted -- i wanted to let her know that i wish her well , and i - i also thought maybe she 'd let me come to the wedding . daniel : so you made an issue out of it , after i asked you not to ? daisy : i was trying to make peace . daniel : oh , that 's -- that 's great . how 'd that go over ? daisy : not well . we got into an argument , and i -- you know , i know it 's not one of my brighter ideas , but -- daniel : no , no , it was n't one of your brighter ideas , badgering a pregnant woman on her wedding day . daisy : i was n't badgering her . i was being perfectly polite , and then she went off on me . daniel : you should n't have been there in the -- you should n't have been there in the first place . i mean , could you tell that she was n't feeling well ? did she say anything at that point ? daisy : no , she did n't say anything . she was perfectly fine when i left her . daniel : oh , god . daisy : daniel ! i do n't know why you are so angry at me . daniel : so angry at you because i ca n't do this . i ca n't deal with you , no matter how hard i try . daisy : if i 'm so impossible to deal with , then why do n't you walk away ? daniel : because you know that i ca n't do that ! kevin : whoa , whoa , whoa . hey , hey , hey . what -- what are you doing ? [ scene_break ] cane : thank you very much . so what can we do to help ? genevieve : ohh , nothing , nothing . i - i got myself into this one , i will get myself out . cane : mom , you 're staying here . it must be expensive . genevieve : i withdrew a little cash before i turned myself in . cane : okay , so it 's not gon na last that long . look , i can talk to lily . you know , maybe you could stay with us . genevieve : please do n't worry so much . i - i have things under control , really . but it means a great deal to me to know that i have your support if i need it . cane : okay . [ scene_break ] kevin : what is the problem ? daniel : could you maybe , for one second , have just thought about someone other than yourself ? daisy : you ca n't blame me for this . it 's not like i knew that your mom was gon na lose the baby . daniel : no , but you could n't leave it alone , could you ? even though i asked you to leave her alone , even though i asked you not to go there , even though it was supposed to be one of the happiest days of her life . kevin : okay , you guys , this is not the place for you to be having this conversation . daniel : oh , we 're done . daisy : what is that supposed to mean ? daniel : it means -- what that means is mother needs me right now , or are you thinking maybe we should also be focused on you ?

( laughs ) really ? nick : this has been a tough loss . but we 're gon na get through it by facing it together , the way i want us to face everything , good and bad . so why wait ? i mean , unless you want , uh , the music and the flowers and the big party . phyllis : ( voice breaking ) i do n't want any of that . i just want you . nick : okay . phyllis : ( normal voice ) i do n't want to face a big crowd . nick : i think the kids should be here . phyllis : oh , yeah , of course . someone to make it official .

[ adam and annie kiss , then she sneaks out of the house ] [ scene_break ] jack : jesse , with all due respect . i mean , come on . this is a no - brainer . you 've got the jane doe corpse that he altered the dna on to make us think that greenlee was dead . not the first time he 'll be charged with abuse of a corpse , by the way . and there is one hell of an argument to be made for him holding my daughter against her will . jesse : jackson , i understand you 're upset -- jack : ok ? jesse : but you know as well as i do that we deal with evidence , we deal with fact -- jack : ah , come on , jesse -- jesse : we do not deal with emotions . david : yeah . what he said . and since we 're talking about facts , what about the fact that i arranged your reunion with your daughter ? jack : after you let me think she was dead for a year . david : she nearly was . was i supposed to give you false hope ? it 's a miracle she 's even here . jack : a miracle which you will turn into a nightmare given the chance . jesse : look , come on . come on . that flash drive had two sets of fingerprints on it -- yours and greenlee 's now that we know she 's back . david : ok , one more time . i have absolutely no reason whatsoever to want to take down fusion . now , as for greenlee , if she chose to use that fail - safe on her own company , what crime has she committed ? now , come on . if i took an ax to my own house , would you arrest me ? jack : an ax ? man , who cares -- can we get back to the business at hand ? i want to talk about what he did to my daughter . david : what i did to your daughter . you mean giving her the ability to walk again ? i mean , do n't you get it ? a year ago today , your daughter was a crumbled heap of flesh on the side of a freezing river . today she 's a beautiful , strong woman , someone who should be celebrated , not pitied . you know , jack , you should be in the chapel right now enjoying your daughter 's company , welcoming her home . but for whatever reason , you feel it 's more important to be trying to take me down right here and now . jack : i 've already welcomed my daughter home . now i 'm just trying to keep her safe from you . david : all right . look , let 's just be honest here . i have no doubt that you 're overjoyed your daughter 's alive . but what really pisses you off is that she 's making her own decisions about this . now , look , if you love your daughter so damn much , my advice to you is this : get out of her way because greenlee is gon na make her own decisions with or without you . [ scene_break ] ryan : oh , hold on . wait . just -- just -- just -- hands off this time , ok ? i just -- i just want to talk . greenlee : i 've said all i have to say , but no one wants to believe it . no one understands . ryan : we 're trying , greenlee . greenlee : no , you 're not . david 's been at my side from the very beginning . he helped me fight to live , to walk . he held my hand . he watched me cry . he was there for me when everyone else was -- ryan : when everyone else was -- was what ? greenlee : there was no one else but david . ryan : oh , ok . so you 're marrying him out of gratitude . greenlee : we fell in love . that 's why i 'm here tonight . ryan : really . to marry the man that you love . greenlee : yes . you think i 'm wrong , brainwashed , drugged , under some sort of evil hayward spell ? ryan : tonight should have been our one - year anniversary , greenlee . and the first time that i lay eyes on you , the first time that i know that you survived this crash , you 're standing at the altar with another man . we were gon na spend the rest of our lives together , and now you 're marrying another man . what is going on ? why ? what happened ? help me understand . please , greenlee , you have n't even talked to me . you have n't even asked me how i feel . greenlee : i understand if you 're hurt . ryan : i love you . god . greenlee , do you understand that ? i love you , and i never stopped .

[ scene_break ] ryan : i stood on -- on that embankment , and they told me that -- that your body had been swept away by the current . they said that , and they said that there was no chance that you could have ever survived that . no -- no chance . but i kept looking . i kept looking , i guess , because i just could n't accept that you were gone . i could n't -- i could n't believe that what we had could be swept away by a river . so this -- this past year , i 've just been trying to accept that -- that you were gone . i 've been trying to figure out how i could live my life without you , trying to dig myself out of the pain . [ exhales ] and here you are in a wedding gown getting ready to marry another man . so -- so why , greenlee ? wh -- wh -- and i get gratitude . i understand . i understand that . i really do , or that you have some kind of bond with him or something like that . but what we had , we were going to join our souls , greenlee . and now you just pretend like we had nothing ? greenlee : i know what it 's like to lose the person you thought you were going to spend the rest of your life with , to have something you feel is so right and good and strong that nothing can hurt you , only to find out that your future goes over a cliff . ryan : is that what this is about ? is th -- is that why you 're pretending -- there 's nothing between us anymore ? is that why you 're marrying david hayward because you never forgave me ? if that 's what it is , tell me , please . if it 's something else , tell me . tell me . whatever it is , i want to do whatever i have to do . you 're here and you 're alive , and i love you . so just -- just tell me whatever it is , and i 'm gon na make it right . annie : oh , my god . you 're dead . greenlee : and you 're supposed to be in a loony bin . annie : whatever problems i faced before , they 've all been resolved . ryan : we 're trying to have a conversation here , please , annie . can -- can -- annie : wait , wait . wait ! you 're david 's mystery bride ? greenlee : i do n't believe you were invited . ryan : can you just get out , please ? can you go ? annie : no . not until somebody tells me what the hell is going on here . ryan : just get out . please -- annie : i want an explanation . ryan : greenlee does n't owe you or anybody else an explanation , ok ? and the last person i 'm gon na let anywhere near her is you . annie : get off of me . [ scene_break ] david : the reason you were n't invited , krystal , is quite simple . it was an oversight . krystal : [ laughs ] that 's bull . you invited people who hate you . i guess you think that makes you brave , but you did n't invite me , because i know you better than just about anyone . david : you really think so , huh ? krystal : you know , you are the most selfish man that i have ever known . but this , marrying greenlee , i just -- i get the feeling that this was n't your typical manipulation . david : greenlee 's gon na be my wife . i want her to be happy . krystal : oh ! i ca n't believe i 'm saying this knowing you as well as i do , but i just swear , this whole marriage thing is more about greenlee than you . and you 're doing it all for her . [ scene_break ] annie : where did greenlee come from ? what -- what is happening , and why is she marrying david ? did you stop the wedding ? you did , did n't you ? ryan : just -- just back off , please . annie , back off and get out . annie : what is your problem ? ryan : my problem is your history with greenlee . that 's my problem , annie . annie : that died when she died , all right ? i am married to adam now . i am happy and stable and -- happy . i do n't care that greenlee is alive . actually , i 'm glad that greenlee 's alive . it 's one less thing you can try to blame on me , even though i was nowhere near that crash . ryan : and neither was i because you had a gun to my head . annie : it 's over , ryan . let it go . it looks like greenlee has moved on herself . why ca n't we just be civilized ? ryan : because i know you , and i know you 're acting all brave on the outside , but you 're probably freaking out inside , maybe even ready to grab a sharp object and repeat the history that you claim does n't matter . [ scene_break ] [ door opens ] david : greenlee , what happened ? did you talk with ryan ? greenlee : what did i think was going to happen tonight ? why did i think he would be so crushed he 'd walk away ? i wanted him humiliated , ruined , and the only one humiliated was me . david : that 's not true . greenlee : why did n't you warn me ? david : i tried to get you to consider everything very carefully . greenlee : well , you should have tried harder . you should have known this would happen . david : did you really think ryan would let you go without a fight ? greenlee : [ sighs ] i 've ruined everything . maybe you should have just left me by that river . david : do n't say that . greenlee : tonight was supposed to -- i was going to be strong , in control , totally in charge . now what ? i do n't know what to do , what to say . david : well , why do n't you start with what you really want ? greenlee : i want to marry you . but even the minister could n't get out of here fast enough . david : that 's all right . we 'll get him back . greenlee : you 'll still marry me ? david : yes . greenlee : you 're not saying that just to be nice ? david : when have i ever done anything just to be nice ? [ greenlee laughs and sobs ] david : i 'd be proud to be your husband , greenlee , to protect you as my wife . and we can still get married if you want . but first , i think you need to take some time to think about what you really want . greenlee : [ sighs ] it was supposed to be so easy . david : well , it was n't . and there 's a reason for that . so forget about winning and payback and being in control . if you want to know what to do next , figure out why ryan is getting to you so much . [ scene_break ] annie : when will you get it , ryan ? i live a fabulous new life now . all that past history with greenlee is just water under the bridge . pun intended . the greenlee stuff does n't bother me anymore . i 'm actually really grateful for it . if she had n't come between us , i never would have found a true love . ok , i ca n't say i 'm not enjoying this just a little . i am sorry . greenlee back from the dead ? and instead of the two of you running slow - mo into each other 's arms with the heavens singing from above , she 's marrying david hayward ? what ! ryan : shut up and get out . annie : oh , i always thought you and greenlee tried a little too hard for that soul mate thing .

[ annie chuckles softly ] annie : i went to the wedding , yes , but there was no wedding . greenlee is alive . adam : greenlee smythe ? annie : yup . apparently , david saved her , brought her back from the brink , and now she 's marrying him out of gratitude or something . scott : but the wedding did n't happen ? annie : well , ryan was there . so what do you think ? he warned me to stay away from the bitch . d - do n't worry . it 's just a figure of speech . [ chuckles ] i am so over all that stuff from the past . i mean , it 's true . greenlee was a threat then but not now . i am living my perfect dream life now . i could n't care less if greenlee 's back . [ scene_break ] jack : i wanted to have hayward arrested for all the things that he 'd done , but greenlee made it very clear that if i interfered in the least , she would stay dead to me . i already lost her once . i could n't risk that . erica : of course not . jack : but why would she hurt ryan like this ? erica : maybe she was afraid that ryan had moved on and that she had to protect herself . and now she knows that she does n't . jack , you made me see the light about ryan , and i ended it . so now he 's free . and he 's going to really make sure that -- that greenlee sees the happy ending that 's waiting for both of them . [ scene_break ] ryan : you did n't answer my question . greenlee : what question was that ? ryan : is -- is this payback ? i rode off a cliff , and i let you think that i was dead , and you said that you forgave me , but did you ? i mean , is that what this is about ? greenlee : no . ryan : can you please tell me , then , because i 'm really trying to wrap my head around this ? i mean , it -- it 's a miracle that you 're here , that you 're alive . but this is how you choose to tell me ? by marrying david ? and not just on any day , but on the day that was supposed to be ours . greenlee , on the day that we would have started our life together . a year -- a year is a long time , and a lot has happened . i -- i -- i get that . there 's no doubt . but there is one thing that has n't changed , and that is my love for you . greenlee , i love you . and i know that you love me , too . i know you can deny it , you can hide it , but i know that it 's there . did you see the moon tonight ? it was full ! it 's our moon , greenlee , and it brought us together again just like it did before . and , honestly , there 's nothing that can stop us from starting our life together right now . marry me tonight .

[ adam and annie kiss , then she sneaks out of the house ] [ scene_break ] jack : jesse , with all due respect . i mean , come on . this is a no - brainer . you 've got the jane doe corpse that he altered the dna on to make us think that greenlee was dead . not the first time he 'll be charged with abuse of a corpse , by the way . and there is one hell of an argument to be made for him holding my daughter against her will . jesse : jackson , i understand you 're upset -- jack : ok ? jesse : but you know as well as i do that we deal with evidence , we deal with fact -- jack : ah , come on , jesse -- jesse : we do not deal with emotions . david : yeah . what he said . and since we 're talking about facts , what about the fact that i arranged your reunion with your daughter ? jack : after you let me think she was dead for a year . david : she nearly was . was i supposed to give you false hope ? it 's a miracle she 's even here . jack : a miracle which you will turn into a nightmare given the chance . jesse : look , come on . come on . that flash drive had two sets of fingerprints on it -- yours and greenlee 's now that we know she 's back . david : ok , one more time . i have absolutely no reason whatsoever to want to take down fusion . now , as for greenlee , if she chose to use that fail - safe on her own company , what crime has she committed ? now , come on . if i took an ax to my own house , would you arrest me ? jack : an ax ? man , who cares -- can we get back to the business at hand ? i want to talk about what he did to my daughter . david : what i did to your daughter . you mean giving her the ability to walk again ? i mean , do n't you get it ? a year ago today , your daughter was a crumbled heap of flesh on the side of a freezing river . today she 's a beautiful , strong woman , someone who should be celebrated , not pitied . you know , jack , you should be in the chapel right now enjoying your daughter 's company , welcoming her home . but for whatever reason , you feel it 's more important to be trying to take me down right here and now . jack : i 've already welcomed my daughter home . now i 'm just trying to keep her safe from you . david : all right . look , let 's just be honest here . i have no doubt that you 're overjoyed your daughter 's alive . but what really pisses you off is that she 's making her own decisions about this . now , look , if you love your daughter so damn much , my advice to you is this : get out of her way because greenlee is gon na make her own decisions with or without you . [ scene_break ] ryan : oh , hold on . wait . just -- just -- just -- hands off this time , ok ? i just -- i just want to talk . greenlee : i 've said all i have to say , but no one wants to believe it . no one understands . ryan : we 're trying , greenlee . greenlee : no , you 're not . david 's been at my side from the very beginning . he helped me fight to live , to walk . he held my hand . he watched me cry . he was there for me when everyone else was -- ryan : when everyone else was -- was what ? greenlee : there was no one else but david . ryan : oh , ok . so you 're marrying him out of gratitude . greenlee : we fell in love . that 's why i 'm here tonight . ryan : really . to marry the man that you love . greenlee : yes . you think i 'm wrong , brainwashed , drugged , under some sort of evil hayward spell ? ryan : tonight should have been our one - year anniversary , greenlee . and the first time that i lay eyes on you , the first time that i know that you survived this crash , you 're standing at the altar with another man . we were gon na spend the rest of our lives together , and now you 're marrying another man . what is going on ? why ? what happened ? help me understand . please , greenlee , you have n't even talked to me . you have n't even asked me how i feel . greenlee : i understand if you 're hurt . ryan : i love you . god . greenlee , do you understand that ? i love you , and i never stopped . [ scene_break ] david : now , unless you have something to arrest me for , i 'd like to go save my bride from the angry mob . jesse : we 'll be watching . david : you do that . jack : you 'll be watching ? you 're kidding me , right ? this man 's committed enough crimes , he should never see the light of day again , jesse ! david : oh , by the way , you 're welcome for saving your daughter 's life . oh , did the angry mob send you up here to see if i 've been cuffed yet ? krystal : uh , no , no , no . actually , uh , everybody 's gone . even the preacher took off , but i decided to stick around . david : well , that 's an interesting choice , considering you were n't even invited . krystal : ah ! and i know why . [ scene_break ] marissa : it 's just more of his insanity . i 'm done with my father . there is no way that i can have a relationship with a man who wants to blow up everything and everyone around him . j.r. : well , he had some help this time , did n't he ? i ca n't believe greenlee 's back , alive . a crazy way to make an entrance . ohh ! marissa : are you ok ? j.r. : yeah . those pews were like rock . i need an aspirin . marissa : are you sure that that 's all it is ? j.r. : i 'm fine . marissa : i 'm sorry if i freak every time you sneeze or have a twitch . i just -- i ca n't help but worry . j.r. : i 'm not only fine , i 'm starving .

[ scene_break ] erica : oh , no , no , no . do n't -- do n't go in there . they 're in there alone . jack : what -- erica : ryan and greenlee , just the two of them . i know you want to go in there , and you want to talk to greenlee . you want to hold her and tell her how much you love her , but ryan and greenlee , they really need this time . jack : greenlee . what the hell was greenlee thinking about marrying david hayward ? i got to tell you , though , it is so greenlee . she is her own worst enemy . no matter what her reasons , she ends up hurting herself . erica : maybe you have to trust that ryan and greenlee will figure this out for themselves . they 'll remember why they fell in love , and they 'll realize that they are still in love . shall we ? [ scene_break ] ryan : i stood on -- on that embankment , and they told me that -- that your body had been swept away by the current . they said that , and they said that there was no chance that you could have ever survived that . no -- no chance . but i kept looking . i kept looking , i guess , because i just could n't accept that you were gone . i could n't -- i could n't believe that what we had could be swept away by a river . so this -- this past year , i 've just been trying to accept that -- that you were gone . i 've been trying to figure out how i could live my life without you , trying to dig myself out of the pain . [ exhales ] and here you are in a wedding gown getting ready to marry another man . so -- so why , greenlee ? wh -- wh -- and i get gratitude . i understand . i understand that . i really do , or that you have some kind of bond with him or something like that . but what we had , we were going to join our souls , greenlee . and now you just pretend like we had nothing ? greenlee : i know what it 's like to lose the person you thought you were going to spend the rest of your life with , to have something you feel is so right and good and strong that nothing can hurt you , only to find out that your future goes over a cliff . ryan : is that what this is about ? is th -- is that why you 're pretending -- there 's nothing between us anymore ? is that why you 're marrying david hayward because you never forgave me ? if that 's what it is , tell me , please . if it 's something else , tell me . tell me . whatever it is , i want to do whatever i have to do . you 're here and you 're alive , and i love you . so just -- just tell me whatever it is , and i 'm gon na make it right . annie : oh , my god . you 're dead . greenlee : and you 're supposed to be in a loony bin . annie : whatever problems i faced before , they 've all been resolved . ryan : we 're trying to have a conversation here , please , annie . can -- can -- annie : wait , wait . wait ! you 're david 's mystery bride ? greenlee : i do n't believe you were invited . ryan : can you just get out , please ? can you go ? annie : no . not until somebody tells me what the hell is going on here . ryan : just get out . please -- annie : i want an explanation . ryan : greenlee does n't owe you or anybody else an explanation , ok ? and the last person i 'm gon na let anywhere near her is you . annie : get off of me . [ scene_break ] david : the reason you were n't invited , krystal , is quite simple . it was an oversight . krystal : [ laughs ] that 's bull . you invited people who hate you . i guess you think that makes you brave , but you did n't invite me , because i know you better than just about anyone . david : you really think so , huh ? krystal : you know , you are the most selfish man that i have ever known . but this , marrying greenlee , i just -- i get the feeling that this was n't your typical manipulation . david : greenlee 's gon na be my wife . i want her to be happy . krystal : oh ! i ca n't believe i 'm saying this knowing you as well as i do , but i just swear , this whole marriage thing is more about greenlee than you . and you 're doing it all for her . [ scene_break ] annie : where did greenlee come from ? what -- what is happening , and why is she marrying david ? did you stop the wedding ? you did , did n't you ? ryan : just -- just back off , please . annie , back off and get out . annie : what is your problem ? ryan : my problem is your history with greenlee . that 's my problem , annie . annie : that died when she died , all right ? i am married to adam now . i am happy and stable and -- happy . i do n't care that greenlee is alive . actually , i 'm glad that greenlee 's alive . it 's one less thing you can try to blame on me , even though i was nowhere near that crash . ryan : and neither was i because you had a gun to my head . annie : it 's over , ryan . let it go . it looks like greenlee has moved on herself . why ca n't we just be civilized ? ryan : because i know you , and i know you 're acting all brave on the outside , but you 're probably freaking out inside , maybe even ready to grab a sharp object and repeat the history that you claim does n't matter . [ scene_break ] [ door opens ] david : greenlee , what happened ? did you talk with ryan ? greenlee : what did i think was going to happen tonight ? why did i think he would be so crushed he 'd walk away ? i wanted him humiliated , ruined , and the only one humiliated was me . david : that 's not true . greenlee : why did n't you warn me ? david : i tried to get you to consider everything very carefully . greenlee : well , you should have tried harder . you should have known this would happen . david : did you really think ryan would let you go without a fight ? greenlee : [ sighs ] i 've ruined everything . maybe you should have just left me by that river . david : do n't say that . greenlee : tonight was supposed to -- i was going to be strong , in control , totally in charge . now what ? i do n't know what to do , what to say . david : well , why do n't you start with what you really want ? greenlee : i want to marry you . but even the minister could n't get out of here fast enough . david : that 's all right . we 'll get him back . greenlee : you 'll still marry me ? david : yes . greenlee : you 're not saying that just to be nice ? david : when have i ever done anything just to be nice ? [ greenlee laughs and sobs ] david : i 'd be proud to be your husband , greenlee , to protect you as my wife . and we can still get married if you want . but first , i think you need to take some time to think about what you really want . greenlee : [ sighs ] it was supposed to be so easy . david : well , it was n't . and there 's a reason for that . so forget about winning and payback and being in control . if you want to know what to do next , figure out why ryan is getting to you so much . [ scene_break ] annie : when will you get it , ryan ? i live a fabulous new life now . all that past history with greenlee is just water under the bridge . pun intended . the greenlee stuff does n't bother me anymore . i 'm actually really grateful for it . if she had n't come between us , i never would have found a true love . ok , i ca n't say i 'm not enjoying this just a little . i am sorry . greenlee back from the dead ? and instead of the two of you running slow - mo into each other 's arms with the heavens singing from above , she 's marrying david hayward ? what ! ryan : shut up and get out . annie : oh , i always thought you and greenlee tried a little too hard for that soul mate thing . [ annie clicks tongue ] annie : anyway , do n't feel too bad , ryan . just think of what they say . time heals all wounds .

[ chuckles ] i am so over all that stuff from the past . i mean , it 's true . greenlee was a threat then but not now . i am living my perfect dream life now . i could n't care less if greenlee 's back .

[ somber music ] i remember when they came out ... and they told me my friend ... he was gone . he was a doctor . he was a surgeon . a man who saved countless lives . jason : i 'm sorry . eric : sorry comes from the word sorry . and you are right to feel sorrow . jason : [ sniffles ] so , now you come here to the hospital and talk to people like me ? want to make sure some good comes out of what you did ? marlena : oh , jason ... hi , there , i 'm doctor evans . i 've just spoken with the surgeon that operated on the driver of the other car . he 's going to be all right . his injuries were not as extreme as they 'd feared . he 's in recovery now . his vital signs look good .

[ dramatic music ] chad : when abigail came home , gabi and i , we completely cut things off and then we got stuck in the meat locker and ... we got close again . jennifer : how close ? chad : you know , i 've already had this conversation with abigail , okay ? i 've told her everything that i did do and everything that i did not do . we 're both committed to our marriage . we 're moving on . we 're moving past it . jennifer : okay , does abigail know about these feelings that suddenly returned ? chad : they 'll fade . jennifer : i asked you if she knew . chad : and i 've tried to have that conversation with her . she shut me down . you know how she is . it 's her choice . jennifer : you need to have this conversation with her whether she likes it or not . you do not need to be friends with gabi . abigail can be her friend , not you . chad : okay , well , jennifer , i do n't know why it is you always think the worst of me . you always assume the worst of me . i would n't cheat on abigail . jennifer : you think that you can love , honor , and cherish two women at the same time ? chad : that is not what i 'm doing . jennifer : well , you keep telling yourself that , but if you break my daughter 's heart i will come after you and you will be sorry . [ chad chuckles ] [ dramatic music ] marlena : i think you know how proud i am of you tonight . what you did was the very definition of a good thing . eric : mom , i just found some words that seemed to help him . marlena : it was n't just the words . it was you . your pain means something to people . you think i did n't have words -- good words for that young man ? he would n't have heard me ... because he 's broken . his spirit is shattered . it takes someone who 's been on the path that he 's on now to reach him and that was you . and you did , you reached him . eric : mom , i know where this is going . marlena : and ? eric : no matter what i do the rest of my life , i can never change what i did . marlena : of course you ca n't change what happened , but that 's not your goal . your goal should be to share your struggle . there are so many broken people walking around in the world . and you have the ability to put the pieces back together for them . or you can turn your back on them . it 's really up to you . nicole : you see ? that . that right there . that is why i do n't love you . i ca n't love you and i ca n't let you anywhere near me or my daughter . i mean , if something does n't go your way , you go for the jugular . i 'm not gon na stand by and watch it anymore . we 're leaving . deimos : you know what , nicole ? you really need to think long and hard -- brady : listen -- hey ! hey ! you had your shot . we 're done . we 're leaving , all right ? i suggest if you wan na make a move to stop us , now is your chance . go on . make a move . gabi : dario ... dario : hmm ? been here for , like , ten minutes and you 've said six words to me ? dario : i do n't have much to say . gabi : what do you mean you have -- oh , my god , you -- you bumped into abigail today , did n't you ? dario : you know , i probably should 've said no when she asked to use the club for her event . spending time with her -- gabi : it makes it worse . i know . i know . dario : plus , now i 'm starting to feel bad that i lied to her . gabi : about what ? dario : i kinda told her i was n't a good dancer . gabi : [ laughs ] i 'm sorry , what did you say ? dario : well , she offered me these lessons and i felt like -- gabi : you said yeah so you could get closer to her . okay , that makes -- dario : if she finds out i lied , i 'm probably gon na have to move to cleveland or something . gabi : oh , my gosh , yeah . yeah , i just ca n't believe you 'd do something that stupid . i mean , she 's never gon na share the same feelings for you . dario : and you 'd know all about that . gabi : yeah , dario , i do . when someone is emotionally unavailable , you 're just plain out of luck . jennifer : eric . both : hey . jennifer : i was so glad when i got your text . how are you ? eric : same . you ? jennifer : i 'm okay . eric : listen , i just -- i wanted you to know if ... it 's all right that , um -- if it 's still available , i will take that job at horton center . jennifer : that 's -- that is so wonderful . that is so , so great . [ laughs ] you are not gon na regret it . i promise you . eric : all right . listen , i 'm sorry , but i got ta go . jennifer : yeah . [ gentle music ] brady : nicole , you and holly go on ahead . wait for me outside . deimos : if you leave , nicole , i 'm telling you you 're gon na be sorry . brady : hey , hey , hey . you know what ? you do n't threaten her , you son of a bitch . stop doing that . nicole : brady , please do n't . he 's not worth it . brady : it might be worth it . deimos : i love you , nicole . nicole : i 'm sorry , deimos , but you 're delusional . what we had was not love . not on your part . you do n't know how to love . and if you send the police after us , or some of your goons to try and stop us , it 's not gon na change anything . i 'm still not gon na love you . i 'm still not gon na come back to you . i 'm still just gon na hate you . you are not a man , you 're a monster . [ dramatic music ] marlena : and of course it 'll be the first step it 's tentative . jennifer : but it could lead to a lot more . he will be terrific at the center . marlena : yeah . absolutely . thank you for asking him . means the world to me . my son finally coming home . [ sniffling ] eric : `` it 's not a decision i made lightly , and i may regret coming back to salem . especially if it upsets you , nicole . but my thinking is if i can help people who truly need it , then i should try . i hope you 'll understand . yours , eric . `` [ somber music ] dario : hey , you know what ? i have an idea . you 're gon na be here tomorrow night , right ? gabi : yeah . dario : okay . so when chad and abigail hit the dance floor , you and i can dance , i will mess up terribly and you can laugh at me . what do you think ? gabi : uh , besides that you 're pathetic ? dario : come on , i do n't want abby knowing that i was lying about those dance lessons . gabi : fine . yeah . whatever . but you should know that ... dario : what ? gabi : dario , when you -- when you do something with someone in secret , a bond gets created that neither one of you will ever forget . i 'll bet you remember everything about that dance . dario : well , you mean -- yeah , i was ... in heaven . gabi : yeah , i 'm sure you were . dario : but i could tell she 's just -- she 's doing the steps . she 's probably thinking about her husband . gabi : yeah , probably . chad : what do you mean `` it 's a bit too early `` ? it 's never too early for a boy to start thinking about baseball . abigail : it 's kinda soft , so at least it 'll make a good teething toy . [ both laugh ] chad : well ... well , let me try it . no , i 'm just kidding . how did it -- how did it go at the club ? we good for tomorrow ? abigail : yeah , dario , he 's got everything set . so it 's gon na be great . what 's that ? chad : this is a list of the stolen artifacts we were able to get a hold of . deimos is gon na be pissed , but , he kidnapped gabi and me , find out what payback feels like . [ dramatic music ] abigail : chad ... chad : what ? abigail : are you sure that you wan na keep provoking deimos ? brady : car 's over there . nicole : i just wish i had brought another blanket for holly . i do n't want her to get cold . brady : she 'll be fine . she 'll be fine . come on , we got ta go . we got ta go . nicole : okay . okay .

theresa : no , that you still love me . ethan : theresa , theresa , no , ok , i told you , i ca n't be with you . the kiss was a mistake . she 's my wife and we 're having a baby together . theresa : ethan , you love me , and deep down in your heart of hearts , you know that we belong together . i -- ethan : look , look , it does n't matter . ok , look , i do n't want anything to happen to gwen and that baby . you do n't , either , right ? theresa : i do n't , no . ethan : ok , then she ca n't know that you 're here in l.a. , much less that we 've been here together at this apartment , so you need to get your stuff out of that bedroom before she sees it . theresa : ok , all right , because we agreed that it 'd be best if gwen did n't know that i was here until after the baby was born . ethan : right , so please , please hurry . theresa : ok . yeah , i 'm gog g to move stuff , ok , that 's fine , ethan , but let me just tell you something -- i can hide my things , but it 's not going to hide the fact that you still love me , and eventually gwen is going to find out . ethan : i 'm afraid if gwen finds out how i feel about theresa , god knows what could happen . beth : oh , i ca n't believe this is happening !

[ scene_break ] billy : victor and sharon ? man , that -- that ... phyllis : i was with nick when victoria called . they 're beside themselves , obviously . now -- now listen . this is my point . you need to hire me back , because i can get this story right , and i can -- i can use the magazine to investigate the murder . billy : what murder ? phyllis : what murder ? what murder do you think i 'm talking about , billy ? billy : diane 's murder ? phyllis : yeah . billy : that 's been solved . case closed . phyllis : yeah , the d.a . thinks the case is closed , but victor is not a killer . he did not kill anybody . it 's obvious he 's protecting someone . billy : obvious to who ? phyllis : and -- and then this stunt with sharon ? ( shudders ) it -- it -- it 's crazy . it 's crazy . you know what ? he does n't care about his family , obviously . he does n't care about his reputation . billy : i do n't care about victor 's reputation . however , i am a bit tired of him trashing his kids ' lives so that he can accommodate his world view on how things should be ran . phyllis : so it 's a done deal . you 're hiring me , right ? billy : ( chuckles ) we 're about to go to press . phyllis : with what ? what story do you have , billy ? is it better than this one ? billy : no , no , you 're right . we should go with this story . phyllis : yeah , and you should hire me to write it . billy : i 've got a lot on my plate right now . fine , have at it . phyllis : as the editor ? it 's official ? billy : you want it in writing ? phyllis : well , yeah , of course i want it in writing , but we do n't have to worry about that right now . um , i 'm gon na be really honest with you . you are not gon na regret hiring me back . [ scene_break ] victor : son , i knew you would have this reaction along with everyone else . nick : because what you are doing is beyond inappropriate . how can you even think of trying to marry sharon ? victor : let me put it this way , son . sharon needs someone to look out for her interests , and i need someone i can rely on . nick : this is crazy . you do not need sharon , and you can not protect her from inside that prison cell . victor : i can , and i will . nick : not to mention sharon has the rest of her life ahead of her , dad . why would she want to be married to someone behind bars ? can you not see that ? victor : son , what you had with sharon has long been over , all right ? nick : this is not about me . victor : of course it is ! if it were n't , you would n't get so worked up , would you ? nick : is this to protect sharon from adam ? because i already took care of that by making sharon get that restraining order . victor : i proposed to sharon because i want her to be my wife . and i think she wants that , as well . ( knock on door ) sharon : nikki . [ scene_break ] adam : william abbott was just out surfing , and then the next thing , uh , `` hello , baby daddy `` ? chelsea : there were a few more steps involved . adam : so you 're back in the states now to , uh , remind billy of the rockin ' time you guys had and get some money ? what ? chelsea : ( scoffs ) uh , no . i 'm just here to make sure that my child is taken care of . adam : mm . yeah , um , somebody told me something very similar to that this week . and i respected it , and then they , uh , they went and did something that just about slapped me in the face , made me wonder if anything that ever came out of their mouth was true . for your baby 's sake , i hope you 're on the level . if you 'll forgive me , i 'm just a bit , uh , skeptical of people who use their kids to ruin other people 's lives . [ scene_break ] nikki : what exactly do you think you 're gon na accomplish by marrying victor ? sharon : i am doing what i feel is best for my children , and i do n't owe you any explanation beyond that . nikki : i fail to see how marrying their grandfather would be good for faith and noah . and if nothing else , it would further alienate this family ! sharon : excuse me , would you mind keeping your voice down ? i just put faith down for a nap . nikki : fine . who are you trying to hurt ? adam ? nicholas ? or is this some sick way of getting back at me ? sharon : at you ? nikki : sharon , please . you have always resented me . i know that . you want what i have . sharon : you do n't really ... nikki : you grew up nothing . you grew up a nobody , and so did i. i understand that . but i made something of myself . and my children love me unconditionally . and , yes , i have money . i have influence . i am mrs. newman . sharon : so am i . nikki : ( scoffs ) please . mrs. adam newman ? or mrs. nicholas newman ? it does n't sound quite as powerful as `` mrs. victor newman , `` does it ? has that been your endgame all along ? was that the plan ? to snag the ultimate newman ?

( door opens ) nick : where 's faith ? sharon : she 's upstairs napping . what -- where are you going ? nikki : well , at least that poor child has one parent who can be counted on . sharon : nick , she was asleep . nick : yeah , well , now she 's gon na sleep at my place . sharon : what ? no . you are not going anywhere with her . we had an agreement . this is my day to have her . nick : you are out of control . i do n't trust your judgment anymore . i do n't want you anywhere near my daughter . sharon : our daughter . nick : i have full custody . that means you do n't have a say . and after this ridiculous engagement -- sharon : oh , that has nothing to do with my being her mother , nick . nick : this goes so far beyond you being a parent to faith . i do n't even know who you are anymore . [ scene_break ] victoria : i feel that my father crossed the line ... billy : mm . victoria : when he hired that woman . and any shred of loyalty that i had left for him is gone . so if you feel that hiring phyllis is going to help you go after my dad and sharon , then i 'm not gon na stop you . billy : you mean that ? victoria : yeah , i mean it . i 'm just -- i 'm really tired of all of the negative attention . so i appreciate you telling me , because at least i can prepare myself , which is a lot more than i can say for my dad .

[ scene_break ] ( door opens ) victor : what happened ? sharon : nick came and took faith away . nikki bawled me out . all hell is breaking lose , and somehow , i think this is just the beginning . victor : i told you , i 'm not surprised by people 's reaction . it 'll be hostile for a while . but you keep that ring on your finger , and i promise you , things will change magically for you . sharon : somehow , i find what you 're saying reassuring . i do n't know why . victor : i 'm glad . sharon : you know , you asked me earlier what i had to lose . the answer is nothing at this point . i 'm gon na consider your proposal , and -- and that 's all i can do right now . victor : that 's fair enough . but i know it 's just a matter of time before you decide to become my wife .

nick tells phyllis that he has feelings for her and would like to get back together , but she is still deeply hurt by his relationship with avery and does n't know what to do about nick . phyllis tells nick that when they were married , he always put sharon or some other woman before her , and she needs to know that she will be the only woman in his life . victoria and nick are shocked when nikki tells them that victor proposed to sharon . nick goes to visit victor and tells him that he has never been more disappointed in him than he is now . phyllis tells billy that victor and sharon are engaged and that she found out because she was with nick when victoria called and told him the news . billy hires phyllis back as editor of `` restless style `` and tells her to run with the story . billy later tells victoria that he hired phyllis back and that chelsea agreed to take a dna test on his terms . victoria appreciates billy 's honesty and tells him that if he feels he needs to go after victor , that is fine with her . adam warns chelsea that she better not be lying about her pregnancy , not that he cares if she ruins victoria 's life . he is just tired of people using their kids as an excuse to justify what they do .

kendall is having visions that the judge and jury will send her to the gas chamber . however , before her trial , simone and mia come to offer her support . livia asks about kendall 's alleged marriage to michael . kendall admits she intended to kill michael , but before she could , somebody else beat her to it . she admits she carried his dead body to the meat packing plant . singer asks how she could have carried his dead body all by herself ? who helped her . reggie enters and says he did . erica is at chris 's gravesite and runs into ryan . she apologizes to chris for betraying him . and it sounds like she has some big secrets .
<s>[INST] judge : kendall hart has been charged and tried for the murder of michael cambias . has the jury reached a verdict ? foreman : we have , your honor . judge : will the defendant please stand . on the felony count of murder in the first degree , the jury finds you guilty as charged . [ gallery reacts ] judge : as to your sentence , the jury has considered whether any aggravating factors exist that overrule any mitigating arguments in your defense . based on this consideration , the jury recommends the following sentence -- the defendant , kendall hart , will be put to death by lethal injection . [ gallery reacts ] judge : may god have mercy on your soul . court is adjourned . maria chambers : the murder trial of kendall hart is set to resume within the hour . ms. hart is still due on the witness stand after a brief hiatus brought on by the shocking reveal that the defendant has been faking her pregnancy . strong doubt has also been cast on her marriage to michael cambias . in an interesting sidebar , after a bout with angina last week , alan singer will be back in the prosecutor 's seat . the events of last week proved a stunning setback for the defense . after her perjury on the stand , one can only wonder how kendall hart can begin to repair the damage done to her credibility in the eyes of the jury .

[ scene_break ] rex : all right , we 're almost there . check your service . i want to make sure you can make that call to the bank . dorian : oh , i 'm good . all he really wants is the money and he 's not going to jeopardize getting it . rex : right , he 's just a businessman . dorian : that 's right . rex : a businessman who broke into your house , ran a knife up and down adriana 's body -- dorian : please stop . i do n't -- i do n't even want to think about that . rex : you listen to me . you can lie to yourself about what you did , but you may not lie to me . you say all he wants is money as though that excuses what you did . dorian : i did n't do anything . rex : you hired somebody to terrify your own daughter ! dorian : no ! rex : and now , that somebody has gone off the rails and taken her with him . you know , you -- you could pay him the $ 10 million and he could kill her anyway . dorian : i refuse to believe that . rex : i do n't care what you believe . i know what you did to keep me and adriana apart . was it worth it ? she was one of the toughest , strongest girls i have ever known . and now thanks to you , she 's been terrified for months . dorian : i never intended for any of this to happen . rex : but it -- it happened . and now someone 's going to pay .

sam : ivy . what are you doing out here ? i 've been looking all over for you . ivy : well , i was just thinking about pilar and the sacrifice luis made trying to save her . have you heard how she 's doing ? sam : not well . the drug alistair used his influence to get for pilar -- it 's not working . ivy : poor pilar . poor luis . he traded alistair 's secrets , including how alistair tried to brainwash sheridan , to try to save pilar , and now she might not make it . that 's tragic , sam . he might lose his mother and the woman who holds his heart . sam : luis and sheridan -- well , they shared a great love . ivy : they were n't the only ones . [ phone rings ] sam : excuse me . ivy : is it word on pilar ? sam : no , it 's grace . she sent me a text message . ivy : well , the way your face just lit up -- you still love her , do n't you , sam ? i mean , as close as we 've become , she 's still the only woman in your heart . [ scene_break ] eve : well , i guess i should go and speak to pilar 's family , and let them know that there 's nothing else that i can do for her except to make her comfortable . julian : this is all so tragic . luis gave up any chance he had of being with sheridan in the hopes of saving his mother , and now pilar is dying . luis ' decision to return father 's c.d.s has stopped us from being able to find our son . eve : i do n't blame luis for what he did . julian : nor do i . eve : but it is disappointing to have gotten so close just to have it slip through our fingers again . julian : you know something , i 'm never going to give up . father can shoot to kill me next time , but i 'm going to do everything i can to find our son . eve : well , i 'd better go and look after pilar . julian : i think i 'm going to stay around the hospital . if -- if pilar 's time comes tonight , i do n't want you to be alone . eve : thank you , julian . nurse : dr. russell ? your patient -- there 's been a terrible mistake . eve : do you mean pilar ? [ scene_break ] father lonigan : let us be reminded of our baptismal promise to die with christ that we may rise to new life with him . may the grace and peace of god , our father -- antonio : i wish paloma were here . miguel : i called and left a message , but she has n't called back yet . antonio : i was hoping she 'd make it to harmony before mama -- i know she 'd like to see her baby sister one last time . [ scene_break ] girl : que te veste por esta noche ? second girl : yo no se todavia . third girl : yo tampoco pero debemos hacer nuestra tarea primero para que las monjas no nos castigan manana . first girl : no ! third girl : si . second girl : uh - uh . third girl : si . woman : donde esta paloma ? girl : viene detras de las otras , senora . woman : ok .

[ scene_break ] father lonigan : lord , we are gathered here in your name . we pray that you may be among us to watch over our sister , pilar . father lonigan : through the anointing at this hour , may the lord , in his love and mercy -- miguel : stop thinking about luis and sheridan . i already told you luis went to the chapel to pray for mama . antonio : well , then where 's sheridan ? [ scene_break ] sheridan : what eve said that you did -- trading the proof with my father that -- that he brainwashed me into choosing antonio over you so that you could save your mother 's life , it -- it just made me remember why i first fell in love with you . luis : sheridan , you remember that you love me . you remember that i 'm the man that you want to be with . sheridan : luis , i -- luis : i love you . i love you , too . [ scene_break ] singer : i would hold the hand of the one who could lead me places , and kiss the lips of the one who could sing so sweet , and i , would fly on the wings of the bird , i knew , could take me highest . breathe in , breathe out . you keep me alive ; you are the fire burning inside of me . you are my passion for life . [ scene_break ] sam : look , ivy , of course i still have feelings for grace . she 's the mother of our three children . we were married -- or at least i thought we were -- for , what -- over 25 years . i mean , who knew that grace had a first husband and a son by him ? it 's not like she tried to keep david and john a secret . grace had amnesia from that fire in boston , and david never stopped loving her , and when he saw her again , he fought for her love and he won . and now they 're off in italy together . look , it 's no one 's fault , really . it 's just the way it is . ivy : i did n't mean to sound accusatory about your feelings for grace . it 's just that i ca n't imagine waxing nostalgic over julian . sam : your marriage to him was an empty farce . my god , but i loved grace . i loved our life together , our family . not that it was n't hell getting over you , ivy , because it was . that 's why i moved to boston . the memories of us were everywhere here in harmony , and it hurt too much , constantly being reminded of losing you . ivy : sam , i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry i was weak and i let alistair and my father manipulate me into marrying julian . but when i found out that i had been used and we 'd been kept -- sam : you came to me the night of your wedding . ivy : the night ethan was conceived . sam : and when i woke up the next day and i found that you were gone -- well , it taught me a lesson . i learned that i could n't hope for the impossible , that i had to enjoy what i could have , and -- and i did . i enjoyed my marriage to grace . i enjoyed our home , our friends , our life together , and until that day five years ago when i got a call to go to the mansion to investigate reports of gunshots , and i saw you face - to - face again , i did whatever i could to keep our love buried where it could n't hurt me anymore . ivy : oh , sam . it was just the opposite for me . i remembered every moment of the time we spent together , and i dreamed -- dreamed of being with you again . and now that grace is gone , i want to be everything she was to you , everything and more , if you would just tell me how . just tell me please how to make you love me like you used to . [ scene_break ] liz : t.c . , can i make you some coffee , get you something to eat ? t.c . : no , liz . just go inside and get some rest . i 'm going to my shed . liz : t.c . , why ? to pore over the car that you were driving the night of the accident ? t.c . : liz , maybe i missed something , some evidence that proves that julian was driving the car that hit me . liz : t.c . , you have been over that car a thousand times . what -- what makes you think that you 're going to find something tonight that you missed before ? t.c . : liz , i do n't know , but i have to try to find the proof , proof of what happened that night . liz : i know what happened that night , but t.c . has such a temper . how can i tell him who 's to blame for the accident without him killing me ? [ scene_break ] eve : nurse , what do you mean , a mistake has been made ? nurse : it 's about you , mr. crane . eve : what about him ? nurse : mr. crane was supposed to receive blood that he donated and kept here for emergency use , but he did n't . this was n't your blood , mr. crane . it was someone else 's . julian : what ? eve : oh , my god . nurse : it 's ok . the blood was safe and it matched mr. crane 's , but it was n't his . eve : this kind of mistake can not happen ever again . nurse : i 'll make sure that everyone involved is reprimanded . eve : i want a report on this on my desk first thing in the morning . nurse : yes , dr. russell . julian : i 'll tell you , the main reason i gave blood to be kept here for an emergency is because my blood type is so rare . eve : julian , you know , you 're right . your -- your blood type is so rare that only a close family member or -- or one of your children would have the same type . julian : what are you getting at ? eve : `` one of your children . `` what if the person who donated the blood you received is our son ? [ scene_break ] father lonigan : may the lord who frees you from sin save you and raise you up . pilar : amen . father lonigan : our lord , jesus christ , you chose to share our human nature to redeem all people and to heal the sick . look with compassion upon your servant pilar , whom we have anointed in your name with this holy oil for the healing of her body and spirit . support her with your power , comfort her with your protection , give her strength to fight against evil . pilar : antonio ? do n't be mad at luis . forgive him , mijo . forgive him for loving sheridan . antonio : mama , i -- pilar : please . please , mijo . please . i want you all to stay close , to remember that you 're blood , that you 're all each other has . and paloma , too . she 's been gone from us too long . please , make sure she knows that . make sure she knows that always , and that we love her . antonio : we will , mama . miguel : we promise . pilar : where -- where -- where is luis ? miguel : he 's in the chapel . fox : i 'll go get him . antonio : wait a minute . thanks , fox , but i 'll go .

[ scene_break ] eve : your blood type is extremely rare . without getting into the finer points of hematology , sometimes the children of a person with your blood type can inherit the same blood type instead of a mix of both parents . julian : what are you doing ? eve : i 'm looking up information on the donor . now , they wo n't have his identity , but there will be other information . julian : uh -- such as ? eve : gender . it 's a male ! julian , this could be our son !

paloma makes her debut ! she learns that someone from harmony called her , so she returns the call to pilar 's house . since no one answers , paloma leaves a message . then she gets dressed to go out `` clubbing `` with her friends . pilar takes her last breath after father lonigan administers the last rites .

[ phone rings ] sam : excuse me . ivy : is it word on pilar ? sam : no , it 's grace . she sent me a text message . ivy : well , the way your face just lit up -- you still love her , do n't you , sam ? i mean , as close as we 've become , she 's still the only woman in your heart . [ scene_break ] eve : well , i guess i should go and speak to pilar 's family , and let them know that there 's nothing else that i can do for her except to make her comfortable . julian : this is all so tragic . luis gave up any chance he had of being with sheridan in the hopes of saving his mother , and now pilar is dying . luis ' decision to return father 's c.d.s has stopped us from being able to find our son . eve : i do n't blame luis for what he did . julian : nor do i . eve : but it is disappointing to have gotten so close just to have it slip through our fingers again . julian : you know something , i 'm never going to give up . father can shoot to kill me next time , but i 'm going to do everything i can to find our son . eve : well , i 'd better go and look after pilar . julian : i think i 'm going to stay around the hospital . if -- if pilar 's time comes tonight , i do n't want you to be alone . eve : thank you , julian . nurse : dr. russell ? your patient -- there 's been a terrible mistake . eve : do you mean pilar ?

[ scene_break ] man : you 're shaking like a leaf . woman : i know , and i ca n't help it . ever since i got that phone call telling me not to go back to harmony , it 's very unsettling . i mean , how could anybody know that i 'm here , much less with you ? man : are you sure you did n't doze off , dream that someone called ? woman : i know i 've been very anxious trying to decide about going back to harmony , but that call was not a dream and i did n't imagine it , either . man : ok . you know , whatever it is , one thing we know for certain is that paloma got a call from her family in harmony . woman : yeah . do we have to tell her ? man : she has a right to know that something 's wrong and that the family wants her to call . we have to give her the message . hmm ? woman : cual mensaje ? who called for me ?

[ scene_break ] sheridan : what eve said that you did -- trading the proof with my father that -- that he brainwashed me into choosing antonio over you so that you could save your mother 's life , it -- it just made me remember why i first fell in love with you . luis : sheridan , you remember that you love me . you remember that i 'm the man that you want to be with . sheridan : luis , i -- luis : i love you . i love you , too .

[ scene_break ] sam : look , ivy , of course i still have feelings for grace . she 's the mother of our three children . we were married -- or at least i thought we were -- for , what -- over 25 years . i mean , who knew that grace had a first husband and a son by him ? it 's not like she tried to keep david and john a secret . grace had amnesia from that fire in boston , and david never stopped loving her , and when he saw her again , he fought for her love and he won . and now they 're off in italy together . look , it 's no one 's fault , really . it 's just the way it is . ivy : i did n't mean to sound accusatory about your feelings for grace . it 's just that i ca n't imagine waxing nostalgic over julian . sam : your marriage to him was an empty farce . my god , but i loved grace . i loved our life together , our family . not that it was n't hell getting over you , ivy , because it was . that 's why i moved to boston . the memories of us were everywhere here in harmony , and it hurt too much , constantly being reminded of losing you . ivy : sam , i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry i was weak and i let alistair and my father manipulate me into marrying julian . but when i found out that i had been used and we 'd been kept -- sam : you came to me the night of your wedding . ivy : the night ethan was conceived . sam : and when i woke up the next day and i found that you were gone -- well , it taught me a lesson . i learned that i could n't hope for the impossible , that i had to enjoy what i could have , and -- and i did . i enjoyed my marriage to grace . i enjoyed our home , our friends , our life together , and until that day five years ago when i got a call to go to the mansion to investigate reports of gunshots , and i saw you face - to - face again , i did whatever i could to keep our love buried where it could n't hurt me anymore . ivy : oh , sam . it was just the opposite for me . i remembered every moment of the time we spent together , and i dreamed -- dreamed of being with you again . and now that grace is gone , i want to be everything she was to you , everything and more , if you would just tell me how . just tell me please how to make you love me like you used to .

[ scene_break ] monica : who said you could do that ? brook lynn : oh , come on , monica . monica : come on what ? brook lynn : it looks like the macy 's thanksgiving day parade broke down and parked itself in here . you can not be okay with this . monica : well , olivia and i have an agreement . she 's in charge of the decorations , except for the fake christmas tree . i put my foot down on that one . brook lynn : and not these ? i - i do n't get it . it 's your house . monica : yes , it is my house , brook lynn . and if olivia wants to fill it with paper turkeys , she can fill it with paper turkeys . olivia : it 's all right , monica . monica : she 's taking down your decorations . olivia : yes . you know what ? i may have gone a little bit overboard with all the paper turkeys . if it bothers you that much , brook lynn , get rid of 'em .

[ scene_break ] drew / franco : so , before i get to the quartermaines ' , i was gon na stop by oscar 's meadow , say goodbye . elizabeth : hey , uh , i need you to know something . all this time , i 've been fighting , saying that franco is in there , and , i mean , i really believe that he is . but i 'm also aware that i 'm not talking to franco right now . the sacrifice you 're making means everything to me . to my boys . and there 's just nothing else i can say other than thank you . and i 'm really grateful . and i will not forget you . probably does n't mean much to you . drew / franco : no , it does . happy thanksgiving , elizabeth . elizabeth : happy thanksgiving . epiphany : that is one brave man .

[ scene_break ] neil : alexis , uh , it 's me again . call me when you get this . and if kendra stops by , do not let her in , okay ? julian : yeah . kristina 's not answering , either . neil : and molly ? julian : no answer . [ cellphone chimes ] julian : oh , hold on , here she is . uh , molly says she has n't heard from alexis since earlier today . man , this is n't good . neil : i 'm calling the police . [ scene_break ] [ vehicle door closes ] kendra : time to wake up , alexis . or you 're gon na miss all the holiday fun . there you are . happy thanksgiving . [ scene_break ] kendra : testing , testing . 1 , 2 , 3 . can you give me a wave ? wiggle your toes ? how about a smile ? wow . that paralytic 's really something , huh ? we got to move quick because this stuff does n't last very long . just long enough for me to explain to you how you destroyed my family . [ scene_break ] neil : [ sighs ] apparently , they ca n't do anything until alexis has been missing 24 hours . julian : even though you told them the reason for our concern ? neil : they said the best they can do is send some officers to kendra 's . we need more , something to motivate them to search for alexis right now . julian : well , let 's start with a motive . i mean , why would kendra lennon target alexis ? [ scene_break ] finn : happy thanksgiving , robert . robert : anna was , um , very kind to invite me . finn : oh , well , i was kind of in on that . so we were -- we were both kind . robert : oh . good . hey . wow , what 's this ? anna : yes . violet : this is a teddy bear . anna : yeah , finn surprised her with it this morning . robert : did he now ? anna : mm - hmm . robert : daddy 's just full of surprises .

[ scene_break ] maxie : i 'm sorry , i 'm just so fascinated by this . so , how does it work exactly ? you do the procedure , and then what ? andré : mm - hmm . well , ideally , the drew memories and personality will be stripped away , allowing the franco personality to resurface . maxie : because it 's always been there ? andré : that 's the theory . like when you paint over something . the original artwork is still underneath , right ? right . but art restoration can be tricky . in the process of trying to get to the bottom layer , there 's also the possibility that what you could accidentally do is affix the top layer even more firmly . maxie : so , the drew part of franco could become even more drew ? andré : it is possible that franco could emerge with even more sharply tuned memories of drew 's life . maxie : whoa . can you believe this ? andré : no . no , i ca n't . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : from the minute he woke up , i have been focused on getting franco back . and trust me , i 100 % believe he has the right to be here . but in the process , i completely ignored who that man is . the integrity he has . i mean , he 's literally about to give up his life so that franco can get back his life . how do i -- h - how do i pay back a debt like that ? i mean , saying `` thank you `` just seems inadequate . epiphany : that 's what sacrifice means . you do n't give up something that does n't matter . it 's -- it 's giving up something important so that you can gain something hopefully more important . your family is more important , elizabeth . and you 're right . the only thing you can say is `` thank you . `` but is n't today the day for it ? be thankful . elizabeth : i am . you have no idea . [ scene_break ] josslyn : well , i 'm out . michael : yeah , me too . dev : yes . all mine , all mine . michael : okay , okay . joss : let 's go . carly : josslyn ! joss : what ? ! dev beat me fair and square . michael : yeah , and how do we know that ? you never showed your hand . joss : it was a nothing hand . carly : okay , here we go . joss : what do you mean ? i had great cards . sasha : yeah , he did . i folded , too . carly : and you were probably sincere . i 'm sure josslyn was n't . dev : you 're trying to hustle me ? maybe i should quit while i 'm ahead . joss : no , you ca n't . mike had to go back to the home , and sonny 's really depressed about it . so , we just have to keep things going and make it okay for him . got it ? dev : got it . sasha : look , it would be unfair to leave the table because i want a chance to recoup my losses . michael : hey , look , uh , thanks for playing along . we 're all obviously trying too hard , and i can -- i can tell that you notice . sasha : yeah , well , i think you 'll find i 'm a pretty adaptable date . [ scene_break ] lulu : smells incredible . olivia : well , thank you , honey . i 'm hoping that it 's gon na taste just as wonderful . brook lynn : you 're attempting a pizza - free thanksgiving ? ned : liv is not just attempting it . she is doing it ! brook lynn : the day is young , dad . leo : are danny and scout coming ? monica : not this year . jason is taking them to see the rockettes . lulu : wait . jason morgan at the rockettes ? monica : can you just picture it ? ned : no . monica : but scout was so excited , and jason wanted to make it a very special day . lulu : aww . so , leo , what did you do today ? leo : not much . helped mom decorate . monica : and you did a wonderful job . olivia : yes , you did , honey . [ chuckles ] ned : so , lulu , how about you and rocco ? what did you do ? lulu : oh . uh , rocco , off the computer . come here , please . [ laughs ] we -- what did we do today ? we went to the port charles parade , right ? rocco : it was awesome . ned : sounds awesome . so , what was your favorite part ? rocco : the marching band was cool , but what i liked most was hanging out with mr. phillips . i got to sit on his shoulders , and he had his arm around mommy to keep her warm . [ olivia sighs ] monica : epiphany , i need your help . how fast can you get here ? [ scene_break ] olivia : you know what ? kids , you got a great new board game waiting for you upstairs in the playroom . why do n't you let me take you upstairs , okay ? rocco : yay ! lulu : have fun , sweetie . brook lynn : [ sighs ] i need some air . lulu : i could use some fresh air , too . wh -- when did you get back to town ? brook lynn : a couple days ago . lulu : are you staying long ? brook lynn : you sick of me already ? lulu : i 'm just curious . brook lynn : so , uh , mr. phillips ? does he have a first name ? was the ink dry on your divorce papers before you started dating him , or ... ? lulu : you could not possibly be judging me . brook lynn : just pointing out that dante is , like , the most decent guy in the history of the world . lulu : yes , he is a decent man . he asked for the divorce . i did n't want it . brook lynn : the poor man has ptsd , and here you are , in typical lulu fashion , acting like you 're the one being -- lulu : you have no idea what you 're talking about ! you were n't here . brook lynn : i 'm here now . lulu : lucky us . [ scene_break ] monica : [ sighs ] ned . olivia thinks she is trying to keep the peace , but all she 's doing is creating more tension . ned : monica , olivia is doing the best she can . we all are , under the circumstances . monica : the circumstances are brook lynn ! you and i both know she has an agenda . she just did n't fall out of the sky for no reason . ned : that reason could n't be thanksgiving ? monica : no . and you better find the ulterior motive and get it under control , because there 's just so much i can swallow when it comes to this family . olivia : wait . where are lulu and brook lynn ? alone ? that is not good . [ scene_break ] brook lynn : boggles the mind how you can call yourself a spencer . lulu : excuse me ? brook lynn : you go on and on how you 're the daughter of luke and laura , how -- how adventure is in your dna , how you 're strong and you 're resourceful , and blah , blah , blah . but when your man is traumatized and your feelings get hurt , you hook up with the first guy who shows an interest . lulu : what the hell was i supposed to do , brook lynn ? ! dante abandoned me ! brook lynn : is that how you see it ? [ scene_break ] carly : oh , gosh . freezing . we 're all ready inside . we 're just waiting for you to come in and work your magic . you okay ? sonny : yeah . i mean ... i know how lucky i am . grateful and thankful f - for everything that i have . but i just do n't want to be ... that guy . carly : what guy ? sonny : the guy who walks into a room and sees everybody that is n't there . i 'm not gon na be that guy . i just -- i need a minute . i - i - i 'll be right in . carly : okay . for the record , you 're allowed to be that guy .

[ scene_break ] kendra : kiefer was our family 's everything . my mom used to call him her star . yeah , you 'd think that 'd make me jealous , but it did n't because he really was a star . he was charming , sweet , athletic . until he had the misfortune to get involved with your daughter . now , i do n't pretend to know what went wrong . they had a sick , sad relationship . but kiefer did not deserve to die . my 17-year - old brother ran himself down in the side of the ditch because he was so upset by what happened with kristina . he 's standing in the middle of the road at night ... and you see him ... and you run him down ... you murdering bitch .

[ scene_break ] neil : [ sighs ] apparently , they ca n't do anything until alexis has been missing 24 hours . julian : even though you told them the reason for our concern ? neil : they said the best they can do is send some officers to kendra 's . we need more , something to motivate them to search for alexis right now . julian : well , let 's start with a motive . i mean , why would kendra lennon target alexis ?

[ scene_break ] maxie : i 'm sorry , i 'm just so fascinated by this . so , how does it work exactly ? you do the procedure , and then what ? andré : mm - hmm . well , ideally , the drew memories and personality will be stripped away , allowing the franco personality to resurface . maxie : because it 's always been there ? andré : that 's the theory . like when you paint over something . the original artwork is still underneath , right ? right . but art restoration can be tricky . in the process of trying to get to the bottom layer , there 's also the possibility that what you could accidentally do is affix the top layer even more firmly . maxie : so , the drew part of franco could become even more drew ? andré : it is possible that franco could emerge with even more sharply tuned memories of drew 's life . maxie : whoa . can you believe this ? andré : no . no , i ca n't . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : from the minute he woke up , i have been focused on getting franco back . and trust me , i 100 % believe he has the right to be here . but in the process , i completely ignored who that man is . the integrity he has . i mean , he 's literally about to give up his life so that franco can get back his life . how do i -- h - how do i pay back a debt like that ? i mean , saying `` thank you `` just seems inadequate . epiphany : that 's what sacrifice means . you do n't give up something that does n't matter . it 's -- it 's giving up something important so that you can gain something hopefully more important . your family is more important , elizabeth . and you 're right . the only thing you can say is `` thank you . `` but is n't today the day for it ? be thankful . elizabeth : i am . you have no idea .

[ scene_break ] monica : [ sighs ] ned . olivia thinks she is trying to keep the peace , but all she 's doing is creating more tension . ned : monica , olivia is doing the best she can . we all are , under the circumstances . monica : the circumstances are brook lynn ! you and i both know she has an agenda . she just did n't fall out of the sky for no reason . ned : that reason could n't be thanksgiving ? monica : no . and you better find the ulterior motive and get it under control , because there 's just so much i can swallow when it comes to this family . olivia : wait . where are lulu and brook lynn ? alone ? that is not good . [ scene_break ] brook lynn : boggles the mind how you can call yourself a spencer . lulu : excuse me ? brook lynn : you go on and on how you 're the daughter of luke and laura , how -- how adventure is in your dna , how you 're strong and you 're resourceful , and blah , blah , blah . but when your man is traumatized and your feelings get hurt , you hook up with the first guy who shows an interest . lulu : what the hell was i supposed to do , brook lynn ? ! dante abandoned me ! brook lynn : is that how you see it ?

[ door closes ] kevin : so , this tv show wants to do a documentary series about the murders . the crew interviews us on everything -- austin , courtney , now tobias . summer : you say that like it 's a good thing . kevin : how is it bad ? kyle : 'cause it 's like ripping open the wound with a rusty knife . you think summer wants to go through that ? abby : and not to mention you were just arrested for information you leaked to the gc buzz . i mean , do you really think going public with this ? i mean , that 's a terrible legal strategy , kevin . kevin : this is a way to get the police to reopen the investigation . it forces paul 's hand sooner rather than later . summer : yeah , sure , i want to go on tv and talk about how my husband cheated on me and my good friend drugged us and how my best friend wound up dead . no , this is a bad idea , kevin , and noah 's gon na go ballistic when you ask him . kyle : sounds like you 're on your own there , pal . make sure they , uh , get your good side . you can wear that suit . kevin : they want everyone or no one . kyle : then there 's your answer . summer : no . kevin : you guys , everybody knows about -- about that podcast , about that series on cable . digging up new evidence , getting new people to talk . it made the cops pay attention . they 'll pay attention to this . summer , this can make a difference . this can help bring justice for austin and for courtney . summer : fine . kevin : really ? summer : no , not `` fine , i 'll do it . `` fine , i 'll talk to my aunt avery about the legal angle . kyle : you want me to come with you ? summer : no , it 's fine . just stay here and make sure he does n't get cocky and book the interview . kevin : are you gon na be all right ? kyle : what are you talking about ? kevin : i thought you two were joined at the hip , or somewhere . like , i did n't think you were allowed to be apart for medical reasons . kyle : hilarious . abby : you know , summer can go talk to avery , but that does n't mean i 'm gon na agree to any of this . kevin : abby , your affair with austin is not gon na be the focus of the documentary . abby : um , austin 's documentary is what got him killed . why would i be involved with another one ? kevin : back me up on this . talk some sense into these two . mariah : i ca n't . it 's a bad idea . chelsea : you and me ? adam : yeah . chelsea : i did n't think that there was a you and me . i mean , the other day , you stormed out of my place because you did n't want to be compared to adam , and then last night at the hospital when i asked about the potential possibility that your ex - wife 's baby could be yours , you stormed off again . adam : i did , did n't i ? chelsea : mm - hmm . adam : i sound like a jerk . chelsea : maybe just a little . adam : a little bit . okay , here 's the thing . if -- if i -- if i explain to you my side of the story , it 's gon na sound like i 'm making excuses , right , and i do n't want to be that guy . chelsea : why do n't you try ? adam : okay . good idea . um ... chelsea : [ chuckles ] adam : when you asked me if i was the father of sage 's baby , it sort of seemed like you were accusing me of doing something deceitful . chelsea : i was n't accusing you of anything . i was just asking a question . trust me . with connor and johnny , i am in no position to throw stones . adam : my marriage to sage was a business arrangement . chelsea : people sleep with business partners all the time . who am i to judge ? adam : all right , look , that whole thing is a non - issue , okay ? my focus is on you right now . it is . and yes , i 'm worried about sage . a lifetime friendship will do that to you . i know how much she wants this baby , so i 'm worried about her , but that 's it . chelsea : what are you -- what are you trying to tell me ? that you 're , like , a good guy ? adam : [ laughing ] oh , god , no . you kidding me ? no . let 's not get carried away here . chelsea : okay . we wo n't . adam : okay . listen , i have to go , all right ? i have things i have to do . um , kind of important . but i want you to notice how i 'm leaving right now , okay ? take notice of me being a gentleman . i 'm not storming off . i 'm not in a huff . i 'm in a good mood . and i 'm leaving like a gentleman , okay ? maybe when i get back , uh , we can talk about how this pitch went with jack ? that sound good ? chelsea : you 'll be the first to know . adam : yeah ? love that . uh , two things before i go . number one -- i 'm sorry about this whole baby thing -- confusion . i apologize for that . and then whatever color this is that you 're wearing -- i do n't know what you call it , but it 's -- it 's working for you . it 's amazing . sharon : i know how much you love seeing your uncle dylan , so we decided that it would be fun if he could stay over on mommy and faith nights . how much fun would that be ? faith : next week is way too far away . dylan : yeah , but there 's plenty of fun stuff between now and then . faith : like what ? dylan : hmm . like ... uh , like , you know , picking out cookies to take to your friends at school . sharon : yeah . that 's the best idea i 've ever heard . make sure you get enough for everyone , though . faith : okay . sharon : oh , nick is late , and he 's not replying to my texts . [ sighs ] you know what ? i 'm here on time . i stuck to my end of the agreement . if he tries to say i did n't , you 're my witness . dylan : you did , to the letter . just text him again . [ sighs ] [ cell phone chimes ] sage : i think that 's you . nick : yeah . oh , it 's sharon . i forgot to tell her i ca n't take faith to school . sage : you can . go on . nick : no , no , no . i ca n't just leave you here . sage : yes , you can . faith needs continuity , and you do n't want to disrupt the new custody agreement and definitely not over me . nick : why not over you ? sage : well , you know , if you stay here , i 'm just gon na stare at you and all sorts of embarrassing things . nick : well , then i 'm definitely not leaving . sage : [ chuckles , groans ] nick : ooh . sage : no laughing . nick : okay . sage : it 's okay . go on . i need sleep . okay ? the baby needs sleep . nick : this baby 's a champ , just like its mom . you get some rest , okay ? i 'll be back . sage : okay . [ door opens ] avery : well , kevin has a point . some of those documentaries can be effective . pursuing avenues that the police ca n't -- or wo n't . but ... summer : `` but . `` exactly . i mean , this whole thing seems like a bad idea . avery : well , if you do n't want to participate , there 's no reason you should . summer : yeah , well , kevin is convinced that if we do n't , then we 're not pursuing justice . avery : okay , you 're not police officers . [ cell phone rings ] avery : you 've been victimized and terrorized throughout this whole ordeal . excuse me . yeah ? really ?

[ groans ] chelsea : i thought maybe these could help brighten up the room . sage : they 're beautiful . thank you . chelsea : so , um ... are you okay ? sage : uh , minus an appendix . i 'm fine . it 's just all about the anesthesia and the baby now . chelsea : scary stuff . i know it 's hard . sage : i never expected this baby to happen . it 's a miracle . i 'm just ... chelsea : the thing about human beings , even tiny ones , is they fight . they fight to live . they do whatever it takes . it 's pretty amazing . like you said , this baby is a miracle , so i understand the fear . i really do . but just do n't let that get in the way of just enjoying your pregnancy and -- and , you know , remember how strong you are and how strong that baby is . sage : [ sighs ] thank you . how -- how have you been ? chelsea : i 've been good . it 's been a little crazy [ chuckles ] with work , you know , and , um , learning to make nice with the new management . but , uh , you know , gabriel 's been a huge support . sage : that 's a shocker . your biggest fan is supportive . chelsea : oh , i do n't know if i 'd call him my biggest fan , but , uh , but he does like the designs . sage : so , uh , you guys on , are you off ? chelsea : i do n't really know how to answer that , actually . we , um ... we definitely have a very deep connection , but we have some issues , too . sage : another big shocker . chelsea : but he was , you know , really worried about you , you know , and the baby . he was really worried when he -- when he got the news . he cares a lot about you . you know , so much so that it , um , it actually made me wonder when i -- when i saw his reaction . sage : wonder what ? chelsea : if , you know , maybe he 's the father of your child . sage : the flowers are a nice touch , chelsea . they go well with `` are you sleeping with two men at the same time ? `` chelsea : oh , god , no , i was not trying to -- sage : you are really something , chelsea . your sympathy was actually convincing . chelsea : no , no , no . i understand what it 's like to worry about your baby -- sage : oh , okay , 'cause that 's why you 're here with all these innuendos of how the baby came to exist . chelsea : no , no , i - i - i -- listen , i -- trust me , i am the last person to judge or care . sage : okay , if you do n't care , then why are you here ? chelsea : gabe seemed upset , and it seemed like more than just friendly concern , so -- sage : it 's a baby ! most people care about babies , decent people . you 're probably just concerned about being saddled with gabe 's kid , huh ? chelsea : oh , no , no , no -- sage : do n't worry , chelsea , because it 's not his kid . he 's not the father , and you do n't have to worry about me cramping your style ! adam : whoa , whoa . what 's going on here ? sage : what 's going on is i 'm telling your whatever she is here that you and i never had sex and this baby is not yours ! adam : is that why you came here ? to ask her that ? we already went over this . sage : you -- what are you , fixated or something ? chelsea : i 'm so sorry . i should not have come here . sage : no , you should n't have come here ! chelsea : i did not mean to upset you . sage : get out ! adam : chelsea -- chelsea : sorry . sage : well , go on . go after her . i 'm supposed to be sleeping , not dealing with your drama . my job is to keep this baby safe and healthy , not placate your paranoid girlfriend . adam : but she 's not paranoid , sage . this baby could be mine , right ? sage : no , it ca n't ! nick : sage is in a hospital bed right now worried about her unborn child , and you 're trying to figure out a way to use this to your advantage ? sharon : okay , i 'm gon na assume that you 're tired and you 're upset and you 're just looking for someone to yell at , but that person should n't be me , nick . i offered to help , not take advantage . there 's a difference , and you used to know that . nick : yeah , well , there 's a lot of things different now . dylan : hey . is this what you want faith to hear ? seeing you guys like this does not help her at all . kevin : how can you say the interview is a bad idea ? abby : and how can you insist it 's a good one ? kevin : i literally just covered this , abby . why is it so hard for everyone to admit that i 'm right ? mariah : oh , good . we 're talking about the same thing . kevin : sharon would have gone to jail if we had n't kept digging , but we kept pressure on the gcpd . but now they think a dead guy is the killer . however , we know the danger is still out there . this documentary is a public service . mariah : i am not going on tv with a huge caption under my face , saying , `` stolen from mother , raised by cult leader , involved in a murder case . `` kevin : okay . so , it 's safe to say that you side with summer and abby ? mariah : it 's a personal opinion , not a side . abby : you know , you could just say yes , you side with us . kyle : it 's not about sides , all right ? mariah : i need to cut lemons . leave me alone . kevin : no , not until you admit that this is a good idea ! avery : guys , is this about the interview ? summer just told me . mariah : and you rushed over to tell us what a bad idea it is , right ? avery : actually , i 'm here because my deposition got delayed , but -- kevin : okay , so you came to say that it 's a good idea , that it can encourage the gcpd to reopen the investigation and you would have done the same thing when you were working with the innocence foundation ? thank you , avery . avery : well , it 's true . we do use journalists as researchers , but never to publicize the results outside the courtroom . once a trial is in the media , it 's very hard for the authorities . kevin : well , it 's just an interview . avery : yeah , one you ca n't control . and since you 're all putting yourself in the public eye -- abby : or not . kevin : you love the public eye , abby . it 's your thing . abby : was . now -- not so much . avery : putting yourself in the public eye is risky . kevin : leaving a killer on the loose is a little riskier , would n't you say ? kyle : you have to admit , he 's right on that point . abby : since when ? kevin : since now . abby : no , i thought we agreed that we should n't do this . kyle : yeah , but look , this killer , he 's cocky as hell , and the cops do n't seem to be reacting . i mean , if this could convince them to just dig a little bit deeper into the case , then -- avery : kyle , can we have a private moment , please ? abby : oh , yeah , if you can talk some sense into him , take as much time as you need . kyle : okay , what 's wrong ? why do we need privacy ? avery : well , we do n't need privacy , but i think summer deserves it . and a public interview could be a disaster for her . joe : you 're just like your aunt -- focused and driven . summer : i do n't think anyone has ever described me like that . my mom , yes . but i do n't think i 've ever really been focused . joe : well , things change . people evolve . summer : that 's true . joe : must be hard . did n't get enough time with austin . he seemed like a great guy . you two were in love . i 'm sorry things did n't work out , that whole promo piece . summer : austin was complicated . i do n't know . maybe we got married too fast or for the wrong reasons . i do n't -- i do n't know . joe : yeah , that 's what happened with avery and me . too fast , too young . she was n't a priority . i spent too much time focused on my work , and i got what i deserved . what happened to you and austin , i mean , nobody deserves that . yeah , well ... that 's it . summer : that 's it ? are you sure you do n't need to do more ? joe : we did the whole set . thank you . you 're -- you 're a great coach . summer : i ca n't imagine , you know , what it 's like to fight for something that you used to take for granted . joe : yeah , well , it makes it easy when you got someone like avery standing by your side . i do n't know how i can repay her . i mean , i owe her everything . summer : she just wants you to recover . joe : yeah , which makes fighting to walk so much easier . summer : i think you 'll do it . joe : thank you . summer : yeah . joe : well , have a nice day , summer . summer : thanks . you , too . [ door closes ] [ door opens ] avery : i understand why you think this interview was a good idea . kyle : to motivate the police . which summer would want if she took a second to think about it . avery : okay , no one is closer to this than summer . she has the most to lose . and in the wrong hands , the facts of this case could be twisted and manipulated . the world could see summer in a way that is n't true . kyle : what are you saying here ? that they could pin this on summer ? the cops already know that she 's innocent . avery : yeah , but the producers could imply that she 's happy her cheating husband is dead so she can reunite with her first love . kyle : that 's not what this is about . avery : i know it 's not what it 's about . and summer is very grateful to have you , but that does n't mean you need to throw it in the news . kyle : this is nuts , avery . there 's nothing wrong with summer leaning on me . avery : no , there 's not . and it seems like you two need each other in some very important ways . just beyond this interview , take things slow . make sure you have the same priorities , because sometimes no matter how much you want something , the timing is just wrong . dylan : no one needs you two going after each other like this . at least not in front of faith . faith : you 're mad at mommy again ? nick : nope . i 'm not mad at anyone but myself for being late , so why do n't you say goodbye to mommy and dylan and let 's get you to school ? sharon : love you , baby . do n't forget to share all those cookies . dylan : see you soon , okay ? that was a crummy way for faith to end her visit . what -- what happened ? sharon : sage had to have her appendix out , and that 's why nick forgot to bring faith to school today , so i offered to help and nick accuses me of trying to take advantage . dylan : trying to get more time with faith . sharon : you know , nine months ago , we were raising faith together . now all of a sudden , i 'm the enemy again ? things are never gon na change . this is the way we 're always gon na deal with each other now . dylan : sharon , you do n't know that . obviously nick 's worried about sage . he 's worried about the baby . that 's -- that 's a lot to deal with . sharon : there 's always a lot to deal with somehow , and nick always feels entitled to talk to me like that . dylan : that should change , okay ? and we 'll see what we can do . but right now , nick 's stressed out . we 're not gon na bring it up . all he 's thinking about is his baby pulling through this . sage : do n't you ever say that ! ever say that about this baby ! adam : sage , relax . sage : do you hear me ? adam : it 's true , though , right ? that baby could be mine . sage : no . what are you even doing here hovering ? of course chelsea 's gon na have questions . adam : you 're my ex - wife , sage . we 're friends , okay ? i 'm your friend . sage : okay , she does n't see it that way , adam . she sees that you 're lying to her . she 's harassing a pregnant woman . she brought me flowers to see who the paternity of this baby was . adam : why do n't you take a breath , okay ? sage : what are you even doing here ? ! adam : calm down , all right ? sage : calm down ? you 're making up lies ! adam : lies ? we had sex , sage ! that 's how babies happen ! sage : no ! god , no ! that 's how this baby happened for me and nick . me and nick ! not you ! this baby -- [ hyperventilating ] adam : take a breath . sage : this baby -- this baby is a miracle . [ alarm beeping ] adam : what 's happening ? sage : this baby is -- adam : what -- what 's happening ? sage : this baby is nick 's . this baby is nick 's ! do n't you understand ? ! get out ! [ hyperventilating ] nick : hey . sage : hey . [ door closes ] nick : it 's okay . sage : hi . nick : why do n't you go back to sleep ? sage : no , i - i was n't sleeping . uh , did you drop faith off ? nick : uh , yeah . yeah , i did . the nurse told me your blood pressure spiked ? sage : yeah . nick : i 'm not freaking out yet , but stop doing that , okay ? sage : okay , i 'm -- i 'm -- i 'm perfectly fine now . it 's just , um , you know , uh , chelsea and gabe came by one after the other . i - i think it was just too much . got excited and ... nick : of course he came . stressing you out . i mean , this guy uses you for his inheritance , and then he 's trying to pretend like he 's your best friend ? sage : no , no , he -- he just thinks that because of our history that he 's entitled to come by , and he 's not , so i told him that he ca n't , and i handled it . nick : well , you should n't have to . do n't worry . we 're gon na leave it alone . i 'm gon na have my own talk with gabe . sage : what ? nick : do n't worry . it 's gon na be civil . mostly . i 'm just gon na let him know he ca n't come anywhere near you or my baby . sage : no , nick , you ca n't . [ knock on door ] adam : hey . thought i 'd find you here . chelsea : sage okay ? adam : yeah . yeah , she 's okay . her blood pressure took a jump , but she 's okay . i was , uh , uh , invited to leave , so ... chelsea : that 's awful . adam : yeah . chelsea : i 'm awful . going there and bothering her when she just got out of surgery ? i do n't know why i did that . adam : why you did that ? you were trying to figure out if the baby was mine , right ? chelsea : but why ? why could n't i just trust you ? and -- and it does n't even matter . it 's not my business if it 's your baby , anyway . i mean , you -- you have your own life . adam : you know , i 'm not interested in having my own life if you 're not in it . and as for why you did n't trust me ... chelsea , let 's be honest . i 've done nothing but lie to you . i - i lied to you about my marriage to sage , about only wanting to be friends with you . i lied to you about why i moved in across the hall from you , why i took the job at jabot . it 's a bunch of lies . no more lies , okay ? from now on , just ... coming clean about everything . tell you the truth . including the truth about sage 's baby . sharon : um , you know , if you just turn it to the left ... dylan : i know , but it 's supposed to go to the right . sharon : yeah , i 'm saying you just nudge it to the left , and then turn it to the right . dylan : just nudge it to the ... [ chuckles ] i bow to the expert . how did you know that ? sharon : well , you know , co - owning this place all those years taught me to problem - solve . dylan : well , the number - one requirement in any field is problem - solving . sharon : i wish i had a field to problem - solve in . you know , my days used to be filled with either working here or being a spokesmodel , plus i was raising the kids at the same time . and now noah 's grown . i do n't see a lot of faith . chelsea never hires me to be a fit model . i just have too much time on my hands . dylan : well , maybe you need a job . if not for the paycheck , as public service , to share your problem - solving skills with the world . sharon : technically , i do n't need a paycheck . dylan : did jack have you working with the models at jabot ? sharon : until phyllis fired me . and now victor is part owner , so there 's never gon na be a place for me at jabot . dylan : well , you know , there are other jobs in genoa city , even if it feels like the abbotts and newmans own the whole town . sharon : that 's true . but i 'd have to go through the interview process . dylan : yeah , but you were -- you were a spokesmodel . sharon : yeah , just -- i do n't know if i have that same confidence now . dylan : what are you talking about ? you 're still you . all you have to do is get the person interviewing you to see that . sharon : i can feel the panic rising just talking about it . dylan : well , do n't fear . i can help you with that . avery : so the deposition was scheduled , postponed , rescheduled , and then postponed again ? unbelievable . all right . keep me posted . hey . hi . summer . summer : i had to find you . avery : is it the interview ? are they pressuring you to give an answer now ? summer : no , it 's not about that . it 's -- it 's about joe . avery : oh , my god . what happened ? is he okay ? summer : no , joe -- joe is -- joe is okay . he 's better than okay . you have no idea . dylan : hmm . well , ms . newman , why exactly dylan : hmm . well , ms . newman , why exactly did you leave your last place of employment ? sharon : well , sir , i left because i was fired by phyllis newman after she found out about a paternity - test result i switched in regards to her daughter and my ex - husband . and that 's when i would walk out because he would be mortified and i 'd be horrified . dylan : i do n't think you really want to go that way . sharon : no ? and that 's the problem . dylan : [ sighs ] sharon : what do i say ? dylan : you have to figure out a way to frame the truth in a way that makes you hirable . i know you . you can do this . come on . sharon : okay , um , jabot underwent some changes , and my position was phased out . which is actually true , because as far as i know , i was never replaced . dylan : is there anyone there who can vouch for your skills ? sharon : well , if you were to speak to mr. neil winters , the former head of fashion , i 'm sure he would tell you that i am dedicated , committed , and respectful . as a liaison , i had to work with both the management and the staff , and i was able to relate to both of them in a very effective and productive way . based on my own experiences , i have a compassion that helps me draw the best out of the people that i work with . it 's one of my best traits . i 'm really proud of it . dylan : wow . [ both laugh ] dylan : wow . you 're hired . you 're hired . when can you start ? sharon : yeah , if only it were that easy . dylan : actually , it is , because i have a job opening here . the pay -- it 's not good . the boss -- incredible . chelsea : this is my fault , not yours . i 'm the one who went to sage 's room . i 'm the one who asked her questions i had absolutely no right to ask . it 's -- it 's not about you lying . it 's about me , about who i am . it -- it goes back to my childhood , i guess . it 's about lying and cheating and skipping out on rent . it 's about my mother never telling me who my father was . it 's about me lying to dylan about connor and adam lying to me about delia . i am just screwed up . [ chuckles ] adam : no . chelsea : i do n't know how to be normal , and i do n't know how to really trust somebody or believe in somebody . it 's the truth . adam : stop it . none of this is your fault , okay ? chelsea : it -- it is . there 's always been some big lie in my life , you know ? whether it 's been one i told or a lie somebody else told me . and , um ... it ruins everything . it ruins my entire life , and that will happen . that will happen with you , too . adam : no . no . it wo n't . listen , if there 's one thing that i want you to believe ... it 's -- it 's in us . it 's this , what we have , okay ? if there 's a way for me to make that happen -- chelsea : but maybe -- maybe you ca n't . and that 's -- that 's because of me . that 's my fault , not yours . adam : listen , believe in this -- my feelings for you , all right ? everything i 've told you . that 's the truth . i 'm not going anywhere , okay ? come here . sage : no , please , nick . the thought of you and gabe getting into it , i ... i mean , you just got back , and i want to see you . will you just sit with me ? nick : of course . sage : [ groans ] nick : take it easy . sage : [ sighs ] nick : i 'm here . and i 'm not going anywhere . so do n't worry about me or gabe or the baby . i know that 's hard . sage : it 's not so hard . things happen during pregnancies , even when mothers do n't have surgery . this baby 's really special to me 'cause it might be my only chance . and you have kids already of your own , and ... nick : that 's why this baby means as much to me as any child ever has . i mean , this past year , i have seen all of my kids get their hearts broken , and it 's been ... it 's been really tough . you and this baby ... you 're my silver lining . you 're a sign that life can bring something new and amazing , even when the worst happens . i 'm scared . you and this baby , you mean so much to me . and the thought of anything happening to either one of you ... kyle : so you saw avery at the police station ? summer : yeah , but we did n't talk about the interview . kyle : well , she stopped by here first , and we did talk about it . and i think the interview 's a bad idea . abby : this is after he was sort of for it , by the way . summer : but you 're totally against it now , right ? kyle : i am . look , we do n't know what kind of questions they 'll ask or how they 'll twist the answers . you know , and if they twisted things and -- and hurt you somehow -- summer : which they could , and they probably would . kyle : right . abby : look , i do n't want my business out in the media , but ... kyle : seriously ? now you 're for it ? abby : no , you said it yourself . if it nudges paul to reopen the investigation and find out who 's really responsible ... okay , i 'm allowed to waffle . you already did . kevin : all right , you 've cut your lemons . now explain to me how this is a bad idea . they do the interview , the cops get on board , the actual , real killer could end up in jail . and i do n't buy that you do n't want to do the interview because you 're worried somebody might bring up ian . mariah : i do n't want to do the interview because if i say yes , i might end up going to jail . kevin : what ? that -- that 's insane . mariah : look , what if the killer did n't post that response on gc buzz ? what if it was someone who wanted to save your ass and keep you out of jail ? kevin : you posted the `` catch me , i 'm a crazy killer `` response ? are you crazy ? mariah : it was supposed to be a favor . you 're welcome . kevin : so it was a lie . which means the killer -- mariah : it was n't tobias gray , and it is n't me . but if the cops find out that i posted that response ... kevin , you 've got to help me . joe : well , there she is , my pillar of strength . well , your niece is no slouch , that 's for sure . you must be hungry . you want to get some lunch ? avery : you must be tired . you want some water ? joe : yeah , that 'd be great . thanks . avery : go get it , then . joe : what 's the matter , avery ? you mad about something ? avery : is there a reason i should be ? maybe because you 've been lying to me all this time ? how long have you been able to walk , joe ? ! [ next_on ] jack : you lost jack abbott ? victor : i said shut your mouth . jack : i offered you a chance for a fresh start ! marisa : and you really think all i want is a payoff ? lily : you need to back off . just because you ca n't hold on to your own husband does n't give you a right to mine .
kevin approaches the others about doing a documentary about the murders . summer , mariah , and abby are against it while kyle is on the fence . summer seeks advice from avery and ends up helping joe with physical therapy . after she leaves , joe stands up on his own , and summer comes back to see this . she tells avery , who confronts joe . mariah admits to kevin that she was the one who posted the response on gc buzz to get kevin out of trouble . because of sage 's emergency surgery , nick is late picking up faith . sharon offers help , but nick accuses her of using sage 's problems to get more time with faith . sharon mentions to dylan that she would like to work again . dylan offers her a job at crimson lights . chelsea and gabe infuriate sage by questioning the paternity of her baby . gabe and chelsea agree that there should be no more lies in their relationship .
<s>[INST] sage : aaaah ! ah ! [ breathing heavily ] is he okay ? is my baby okay ? adam : perfect . looks just like me . sage : [ gasps ] [ groans ] nick : oh , hey . take it easy . take it easy . you 're okay . you 're okay . did you have a bad dream ? adam : genius at work . sorry . did n't mean to startle you . chelsea : oh , it 's okay . i 'm -- i 'm just a little tense . i 'm working on my pitch to jack . our meeting keeps getting rescheduled , so i feel like i 'm off my game . adam : you want to practice on me ? chelsea : what ? adam : the pitch . do you want to practice the pitch on me ? chelsea : oh , um , sure . adam : yeah ? chelsea : um , okay . you ready ? adam : yeah . chelsea : small , but stylish . that 's -- adam : sold . totally sold . chelsea : i said one sentence . adam : that 's enough for me . i believe in you . i believe in your vision . these are beautiful . chelsea : well , you 're not jack . and i have to get back to my pitch , so ... adam : chelsea ? jack 's gon na sign off on this whole thing , okay ? he will . so ... put that down . let 's talk . chelsea : talk about what ? adam : about you and me . mariah : nice suit . you wear that to all your arraignments ? kevin : only when my chipmunk head is at the cleaner 's . mariah : well , you managed to survive one night in jail . kevin : just seven hours in the fetal position . no big deal . mariah : look , maybe michael can get the charges dropped . i mean , you never know . the police have to see that , yes , you might have possibly leaked information on the case , but now that the killer has actually responded , it 's not like you did n't have your reasons . kevin : might not be an issue . mariah : because you suddenly want to be convicted of obstruction ? kevin : because there are other ways to get the cops to focus on what really matters . summer : dapper . abby : class photos today ? kevin : it 's a suit , abby . i wear them every time i go to court . kyle : well , you made a move , and the killer made his countermove . summer : or hers . is that why you wanted us to come here ? abby : no , kevin wanted to say `` i told you so `` in a suit . it was n't tobias . he knows everything . blah , blah , blah , blah , blah . kevin : well , true . i was right , you were wrong . but that 's not the point . the point is , it is a brand - new day and a brand - new opportunity to get the cops to focus on finding the real killer . faith : did you save the crown i made you ? sharon : i have never seen so much glitter in my entire life . dylan : yes , there was glitter everywhere . faith : [ chuckles ] we can build another fort tonight if you want . sharon : sweetheart , you 're at your dad 's house tonight . mommy 's is only once a week , remember ? faith : i was just hoping . sharon : i know . faith : will you be there next week ? dylan : i would n't miss it . next week and every week . yeah , there you go . faith : does that mean you live with mommy now ? avery : and we 're out of milk for coffee . joe : where you going ? avery : to get milk . just to the deli down the street . joe : yeah , but you do n't take milk . avery : i know , but you do . joe : i think i can survive one morning without milk . avery : well , why should you do that when i can just go get it ? joe : avery , i mean , you do so much for me at physical therapy . i do n't need you waiting on me hand and foot . avery : it 's a favor . i would do this for any guest staying in my house . joe : if i need milk , i should go get it myself . avery : yes , and you will eventually . until then , it 's just milk . and i do n't mind . joe : thank you . avery : my pleasure . joe : [ sighs ] [ lock jiggling ] [ door opens ] avery : hi . forgot my phone . joe : yeah . avery : be back . [ door closes ] kevin : so , this tv show wants to do a documentary series about the murders . the crew interviews us on everything -- austin , courtney , now tobias . summer : you say that like it 's a good thing . kevin : how is it bad ? kyle : 'cause it 's like ripping open the wound with a rusty knife . you think summer wants to go through that ? abby : and not to mention you were just arrested for information you leaked to the gc buzz . i mean , do you really think going public with this ? i mean , that 's a terrible legal strategy , kevin . kevin : this is a way to get the police to reopen the investigation . it forces paul 's hand sooner rather than later . summer : yeah , sure , i want to go on tv and talk about how my husband cheated on me and my good friend drugged us and how my best friend wound up dead . no , this is a bad idea , kevin , and noah 's gon na go ballistic when you ask him . kyle : sounds like you 're on your own there , pal . make sure they , uh , get your good side . you can wear that suit . kevin : they want everyone or no one . kyle : then there 's your answer . summer : no . kevin : you guys , everybody knows about -- about that podcast , about that series on cable . digging up new evidence , getting new people to talk . it made the cops pay attention . they 'll pay attention to this . summer , this can make a difference . this can help bring justice for austin and for courtney . summer : fine . kevin : really ? summer : no , not `` fine , i 'll do it . `` fine , i 'll talk to my aunt avery about the legal angle . kyle : you want me to come with you ? summer : no , it 's fine . just stay here and make sure he does n't get cocky and book the interview . kevin : are you gon na be all right ? kyle : what are you talking about ? kevin : i thought you two were joined at the hip , or somewhere . like , i did n't think you were allowed to be apart for medical reasons . kyle : hilarious . abby : you know , summer can go talk to avery , but that does n't mean i 'm gon na agree to any of this . kevin : abby , your affair with austin is not gon na be the focus of the documentary . abby : um , austin 's documentary is what got him killed . why would i be involved with another one ? kevin : back me up on this . talk some sense into these two . mariah : i ca n't . it 's a bad idea . chelsea : you and me ? adam : yeah . chelsea : i did n't think that there was a you and me . i mean , the other day , you stormed out of my place because you did n't want to be compared to adam , and then last night at the hospital when i asked about the potential possibility that your ex - wife 's baby could be yours , you stormed off again . adam : i did , did n't i ? chelsea : mm - hmm . adam : i sound like a jerk . chelsea : maybe just a little . adam : a little bit . okay , here 's the thing . if -- if i -- if i explain to you my side of the story , it 's gon na sound like i 'm making excuses , right , and i do n't want to be that guy . chelsea : why do n't you try ? adam : okay . good idea . um ... chelsea : [ chuckles ] adam : when you asked me if i was the father of sage 's baby , it sort of seemed like you were accusing me of doing something deceitful . chelsea : i was n't accusing you of anything . i was just asking a question . trust me . with connor and johnny , i am in no position to throw stones . adam : my marriage to sage was a business arrangement . chelsea : people sleep with business partners all the time . who am i to judge ? adam : all right , look , that whole thing is a non - issue , okay ? my focus is on you right now . it is . and yes , i 'm worried about sage . a lifetime friendship will do that to you . i know how much she wants this baby , so i 'm worried about her , but that 's it . chelsea : what are you -- what are you trying to tell me ? that you 're , like , a good guy ? adam : [ laughing ] oh , god , no . you kidding me ? no . let 's not get carried away here . chelsea : okay . we wo n't . adam : okay . listen , i have to go , all right ? i have things i have to do . um , kind of important . but i want you to notice how i 'm leaving right now , okay ? take notice of me being a gentleman . i 'm not storming off . i 'm not in a huff . i 'm in a good mood . and i 'm leaving like a gentleman , okay ? maybe when i get back , uh , we can talk about how this pitch went with jack ? that sound good ? chelsea : you 'll be the first to know . adam : yeah ? love that . uh , two things before i go . number one -- i 'm sorry about this whole baby thing -- confusion . i apologize for that . and then whatever color this is that you 're wearing -- i do n't know what you call it , but it 's -- it 's working for you . it 's amazing . sharon : i know how much you love seeing your uncle dylan , so we decided that it would be fun if he could stay over on mommy and faith nights . how much fun would that be ? faith : next week is way too far away . dylan : yeah , but there 's plenty of fun stuff between now and then . faith : like what ? dylan : hmm . like ... uh , like , you know , picking out cookies to take to your friends at school . sharon : yeah . that 's the best idea i 've ever heard . make sure you get enough for everyone , though . faith : okay . sharon : oh , nick is late , and he 's not replying to my texts . [ sighs ] you know what ? i 'm here on time . i stuck to my end of the agreement . if he tries to say i did n't , you 're my witness . dylan : you did , to the letter . just text him again . [ sighs ] [ cell phone chimes ] sage : i think that 's you . nick : yeah . oh , it 's sharon . i forgot to tell her i ca n't take faith to school . sage : you can . go on . nick : no , no , no . i ca n't just leave you here . sage : yes , you can . faith needs continuity , and you do n't want to disrupt the new custody agreement and definitely not over me . nick : why not over you ? sage : well , you know , if you stay here , i 'm just gon na stare at you and all sorts of embarrassing things . nick : well , then i 'm definitely not leaving . sage : [ chuckles , groans ] nick : ooh . sage : no laughing . nick : okay . sage : it 's okay . go on . i need sleep . okay ? the baby needs sleep . nick : this baby 's a champ , just like its mom . you get some rest , okay ? i 'll be back . sage : okay . [ door opens ] avery : well , kevin has a point . some of those documentaries can be effective . pursuing avenues that the police ca n't -- or wo n't . but ... summer : `` but . `` exactly . i mean , this whole thing seems like a bad idea . avery : well , if you do n't want to participate , there 's no reason you should . summer : yeah , well , kevin is convinced that if we do n't , then we 're not pursuing justice . avery : okay , you 're not police officers . [ cell phone rings ] avery : you 've been victimized and terrorized throughout this whole ordeal . excuse me . yeah ? really ? [ sighs ] all right . i 'm on my way . i am so sorry . a client of mine is being deposed early . summer : no , it 's fine . go . avery : okay , well , uh , uh , joe , are you okay ? i know we had a workout scheduled . joe : yeah , i 'm not going anywhere . summer : hey , you know , i can help if you just need someone nearby . avery : would you ? that would be great . and do n't slack off on him . summer : do n't worry . i 'll go full - on drill sergeant . joe : do i get a vote here ? 'cause your mini - you is starting to scare me . avery : no . um , listen , about that interview , you do n't do anything till you 're ready , okay ? we 'll talk about it more . summer : okay . thank you . avery : love you . summer : love you . joe : good luck . [ door closes ] joe : look , you can go . i can catch up on my sports . no one will have to know . summer : mm - hmm . no , you heard my aunt avery . i 'm not gon na slack off on you . now , come on . let 's get to work . joe : avery 's great , is n't she ? i - i 'd be lost without her . nick : hey , small fry . i 'm late . and you are sticky . faith : [ chuckles ] i had a muffin . nick : uh , no kidding . dylan : faith , come back here . we 'll get you cleaned up . come on . sharon : i was starting to worry . nick : yeah , sorry . i should have texted . uh , sage had an emergency surgery -- her appendix . sharon : oh , no . uh , is she okay ? and the baby ? nick : uh , she 's in recovery now . she 's doing great . the rest , you know , we just have to wait and see . sharon : well , you did n't have to come . you know , i could take faith to school or pick her up or whatever you need . nick : sage is awake now . it 's okay . i can handle faith . sharon : but you did n't have to . that 's all i 'm saying . you know , faith was just saying she wishes we had more time together . you know i 'm always happy to help , and i 'm sure sage would rather have you there by her side , so why not just let me make this easier for you ? nick : you just ca n't help yourself , can you ? chelsea : hey . is this a bad time for visitors ? sage : no , come -- come in . [ groans ] chelsea : i thought maybe these could help brighten up the room . sage : they 're beautiful . thank you . chelsea : so , um ... are you okay ? sage : uh , minus an appendix . i 'm fine . it 's just all about the anesthesia and the baby now . chelsea : scary stuff . i know it 's hard . sage : i never expected this baby to happen . it 's a miracle . i 'm just ... chelsea : the thing about human beings , even tiny ones , is they fight . they fight to live . they do whatever it takes . it 's pretty amazing . like you said , this baby is a miracle , so i understand the fear . i really do . but just do n't let that get in the way of just enjoying your pregnancy and -- and , you know , remember how strong you are and how strong that baby is . sage : [ sighs ] thank you . how -- how have you been ? chelsea : i 've been good . it 's been a little crazy [ chuckles ] with work , you know , and , um , learning to make nice with the new management . but , uh , you know , gabriel 's been a huge support . sage : that 's a shocker . your biggest fan is supportive . chelsea : oh , i do n't know if i 'd call him my biggest fan , but , uh , but he does like the designs . sage : so , uh , you guys on , are you off ? chelsea : i do n't really know how to answer that , actually . we , um ... we definitely have a very deep connection , but we have some issues , too . sage : another big shocker . chelsea : but he was , you know , really worried about you , you know , and the baby . he was really worried when he -- when he got the news . he cares a lot about you . you know , so much so that it , um , it actually made me wonder when i -- when i saw his reaction . sage : wonder what ? chelsea : if , you know , maybe he 's the father of your child . sage : the flowers are a nice touch , chelsea . they go well with `` are you sleeping with two men at the same time ? `` chelsea : oh , god , no , i was not trying to -- sage : you are really something , chelsea . your sympathy was actually convincing . chelsea : no , no , no . i understand what it 's like to worry about your baby -- sage : oh , okay , 'cause that 's why you 're here with all these innuendos of how the baby came to exist . chelsea : no , no , i - i - i -- listen , i -- trust me , i am the last person to judge or care . sage : okay , if you do n't care , then why are you here ? chelsea : gabe seemed upset , and it seemed like more than just friendly concern , so -- sage : it 's a baby ! most people care about babies , decent people . you 're probably just concerned about being saddled with gabe 's kid , huh ? chelsea : oh , no , no , no -- sage : do n't worry , chelsea , because it 's not his kid . he 's not the father , and you do n't have to worry about me cramping your style ! adam : whoa , whoa . what 's going on here ? sage : what 's going on is i 'm telling your whatever she is here that you and i never had sex and this baby is not yours ! adam : is that why you came here ? to ask her that ? we already went over this . sage : you -- what are you , fixated or something ? chelsea : i 'm so sorry . i should not have come here . sage : no , you should n't have come here ! chelsea : i did not mean to upset you . sage : get out ! adam : chelsea -- chelsea : sorry . sage : well , go on . go after her . i 'm supposed to be sleeping , not dealing with your drama . my job is to keep this baby safe and healthy , not placate your paranoid girlfriend . adam : but she 's not paranoid , sage . this baby could be mine , right ? sage : no , it ca n't ! nick : sage is in a hospital bed right now worried about her unborn child , and you 're trying to figure out a way to use this to your advantage ? sharon : okay , i 'm gon na assume that you 're tired and you 're upset and you 're just looking for someone to yell at , but that person should n't be me , nick . i offered to help , not take advantage . there 's a difference , and you used to know that . nick : yeah , well , there 's a lot of things different now . dylan : hey . is this what you want faith to hear ? seeing you guys like this does not help her at all . kevin : how can you say the interview is a bad idea ? abby : and how can you insist it 's a good one ? kevin : i literally just covered this , abby . why is it so hard for everyone to admit that i 'm right ? mariah : oh , good . we 're talking about the same thing . kevin : sharon would have gone to jail if we had n't kept digging , but we kept pressure on the gcpd . but now they think a dead guy is the killer . however , we know the danger is still out there . this documentary is a public service . mariah : i am not going on tv with a huge caption under my face , saying , `` stolen from mother , raised by cult leader , involved in a murder case . `` kevin : okay . so , it 's safe to say that you side with summer and abby ? mariah : it 's a personal opinion , not a side . abby : you know , you could just say yes , you side with us . kyle : it 's not about sides , all right ? mariah : i need to cut lemons . leave me alone . kevin : no , not until you admit that this is a good idea ! avery : guys , is this about the interview ? summer just told me . mariah : and you rushed over to tell us what a bad idea it is , right ? avery : actually , i 'm here because my deposition got delayed , but -- kevin : okay , so you came to say that it 's a good idea , that it can encourage the gcpd to reopen the investigation and you would have done the same thing when you were working with the innocence foundation ? thank you , avery . avery : well , it 's true . we do use journalists as researchers , but never to publicize the results outside the courtroom . once a trial is in the media , it 's very hard for the authorities . kevin : well , it 's just an interview . avery : yeah , one you ca n't control . and since you 're all putting yourself in the public eye -- abby : or not . kevin : you love the public eye , abby . it 's your thing . abby : was . now -- not so much . avery : putting yourself in the public eye is risky . kevin : leaving a killer on the loose is a little riskier , would n't you say ? kyle : you have to admit , he 's right on that point . abby : since when ? kevin : since now . abby : no , i thought we agreed that we should n't do this . kyle : yeah , but look , this killer , he 's cocky as hell , and the cops do n't seem to be reacting . i mean , if this could convince them to just dig a little bit deeper into the case , then -- avery : kyle , can we have a private moment , please ? abby : oh , yeah , if you can talk some sense into him , take as much time as you need . kyle : okay , what 's wrong ? why do we need privacy ? avery : well , we do n't need privacy , but i think summer deserves it . and a public interview could be a disaster for her . joe : you 're just like your aunt -- focused and driven . summer : i do n't think anyone has ever described me like that . my mom , yes . but i do n't think i 've ever really been focused . joe : well , things change . people evolve . summer : that 's true . joe : must be hard . did n't get enough time with austin . he seemed like a great guy . you two were in love . i 'm sorry things did n't work out , that whole promo piece . summer : austin was complicated . i do n't know . maybe we got married too fast or for the wrong reasons . i do n't -- i do n't know . joe : yeah , that 's what happened with avery and me . too fast , too young . she was n't a priority . i spent too much time focused on my work , and i got what i deserved . what happened to you and austin , i mean , nobody deserves that . yeah , well ... that 's it . summer : that 's it ? are you sure you do n't need to do more ? joe : we did the whole set . thank you . you 're -- you 're a great coach . summer : i ca n't imagine , you know , what it 's like to fight for something that you used to take for granted . joe : yeah , well , it makes it easy when you got someone like avery standing by your side . i do n't know how i can repay her . i mean , i owe her everything . summer : she just wants you to recover . joe : yeah , which makes fighting to walk so much easier . summer : i think you 'll do it . joe : thank you . summer : yeah . joe : well , have a nice day , summer . summer : thanks . you , too . [ door closes ] [ door opens ] avery : i understand why you think this interview was a good idea . kyle : to motivate the police . which summer would want if she took a second to think about it . avery : okay , no one is closer to this than summer . she has the most to lose . and in the wrong hands , the facts of this case could be twisted and manipulated . the world could see summer in a way that is n't true . kyle : what are you saying here ? that they could pin this on summer ? the cops already know that she 's innocent . avery : yeah , but the producers could imply that she 's happy her cheating husband is dead so she can reunite with her first love . kyle : that 's not what this is about . avery : i know it 's not what it 's about . and summer is very grateful to have you , but that does n't mean you need to throw it in the news . kyle : this is nuts , avery . there 's nothing wrong with summer leaning on me . avery : no , there 's not . and it seems like you two need each other in some very important ways . just beyond this interview , take things slow . make sure you have the same priorities , because sometimes no matter how much you want something , the timing is just wrong . dylan : no one needs you two going after each other like this . at least not in front of faith . faith : you 're mad at mommy again ? nick : nope . i 'm not mad at anyone but myself for being late , so why do n't you say goodbye to mommy and dylan and let 's get you to school ? sharon : love you , baby . do n't forget to share all those cookies . dylan : see you soon , okay ? that was a crummy way for faith to end her visit . what -- what happened ? sharon : sage had to have her appendix out , and that 's why nick forgot to bring faith to school today , so i offered to help and nick accuses me of trying to take advantage . dylan : trying to get more time with faith . sharon : you know , nine months ago , we were raising faith together . now all of a sudden , i 'm the enemy again ? things are never gon na change . this is the way we 're always gon na deal with each other now . dylan : sharon , you do n't know that . obviously nick 's worried about sage . he 's worried about the baby . that 's -- that 's a lot to deal with . sharon : there 's always a lot to deal with somehow , and nick always feels entitled to talk to me like that . dylan : that should change , okay ? and we 'll see what we can do . but right now , nick 's stressed out . we 're not gon na bring it up . all he 's thinking about is his baby pulling through this . sage : do n't you ever say that ! ever say that about this baby ! adam : sage , relax . sage : do you hear me ? adam : it 's true , though , right ? that baby could be mine . sage : no . what are you even doing here hovering ? of course chelsea 's gon na have questions . adam : you 're my ex - wife , sage . we 're friends , okay ? i 'm your friend . sage : okay , she does n't see it that way , adam . she sees that you 're lying to her . she 's harassing a pregnant woman . she brought me flowers to see who the paternity of this baby was . adam : why do n't you take a breath , okay ? sage : what are you even doing here ? ! adam : calm down , all right ? sage : calm down ? you 're making up lies ! adam : lies ? we had sex , sage ! that 's how babies happen ! sage : no ! god , no ! that 's how this baby happened for me and nick . me and nick ! not you ! this baby -- [ hyperventilating ] adam : take a breath . sage : this baby -- this baby is a miracle . [ alarm beeping ] adam : what 's happening ? sage : this baby is -- adam : what -- what 's happening ? sage : this baby is nick 's . this baby is nick 's ! do n't you understand ? ! get out ! [ hyperventilating ] nick : hey . sage : hey . [ door closes ] nick : it 's okay . sage : hi . nick : why do n't you go back to sleep ? sage : no , i - i was n't sleeping . uh , did you drop faith off ? nick : uh , yeah . yeah , i did . the nurse told me your blood pressure spiked ? sage : yeah . nick : i 'm not freaking out yet , but stop doing that , okay ? sage : okay , i 'm -- i 'm -- i 'm perfectly fine now . it 's just , um , you know , uh , chelsea and gabe came by one after the other . i - i think it was just too much . got excited and ... nick : of course he came . stressing you out . i mean , this guy uses you for his inheritance , and then he 's trying to pretend like he 's your best friend ? sage : no , no , he -- he just thinks that because of our history that he 's entitled to come by , and he 's not , so i told him that he ca n't , and i handled it . nick : well , you should n't have to . do n't worry . we 're gon na leave it alone . i 'm gon na have my own talk with gabe . sage : what ? nick : do n't worry . it 's gon na be civil . mostly . i 'm just gon na let him know he ca n't come anywhere near you or my baby . sage : no , nick , you ca n't . [ knock on door ] adam : hey . thought i 'd find you here . chelsea : sage okay ? adam : yeah . yeah , she 's okay . her blood pressure took a jump , but she 's okay . i was , uh , uh , invited to leave , so ... chelsea : that 's awful . adam : yeah . chelsea : i 'm awful . going there and bothering her when she just got out of surgery ? i do n't know why i did that . adam : why you did that ? you were trying to figure out if the baby was mine , right ? chelsea : but why ? why could n't i just trust you ? and -- and it does n't even matter . it 's not my business if it 's your baby , anyway . i mean , you -- you have your own life . adam : you know , i 'm not interested in having my own life if you 're not in it . and as for why you did n't trust me ... chelsea , let 's be honest . i 've done nothing but lie to you . i - i lied to you about my marriage to sage , about only wanting to be friends with you . i lied to you about why i moved in across the hall from you , why i took the job at jabot . it 's a bunch of lies . no more lies , okay ? from now on , just ... coming clean about everything . tell you the truth . including the truth about sage 's baby . sharon : um , you know , if you just turn it to the left ... dylan : i know , but it 's supposed to go to the right . sharon : yeah , i 'm saying you just nudge it to the left , and then turn it to the right . dylan : just nudge it to the ... [ chuckles ] i bow to the expert . how did you know that ? sharon : well , you know , co - owning this place all those years taught me to problem - solve . dylan : well , the number - one requirement in any field is problem - solving . sharon : i wish i had a field to problem - solve in . you know , my days used to be filled with either working here or being a spokesmodel , plus i was raising the kids at the same time . and now noah 's grown . i do n't see a lot of faith . chelsea never hires me to be a fit model . i just have too much time on my hands . dylan : well , maybe you need a job . if not for the paycheck , as public service , to share your problem - solving skills with the world . sharon : technically , i do n't need a paycheck . dylan : did jack have you working with the models at jabot ? sharon : until phyllis fired me . and now victor is part owner , so there 's never gon na be a place for me at jabot . dylan : well , you know , there are other jobs in genoa city , even if it feels like the abbotts and newmans own the whole town . sharon : that 's true . but i 'd have to go through the interview process . dylan : yeah , but you were -- you were a spokesmodel . sharon : yeah , just -- i do n't know if i have that same confidence now . dylan : what are you talking about ? you 're still you . all you have to do is get the person interviewing you to see that . sharon : i can feel the panic rising just talking about it . dylan : well , do n't fear . i can help you with that . avery : so the deposition was scheduled , postponed , rescheduled , and then postponed again ? unbelievable . all right . keep me posted . hey . hi . summer . summer : i had to find you . avery : is it the interview ? are they pressuring you to give an answer now ? summer : no , it 's not about that . it 's -- it 's about joe . avery : oh , my god . what happened ? is he okay ? summer : no , joe -- joe is -- joe is okay . he 's better than okay . you have no idea . dylan : hmm . well , ms . newman , why exactly dylan : hmm . well , ms . newman , why exactly did you leave your last place of employment ? sharon : well , sir , i left because i was fired by phyllis newman after she found out about a paternity - test result i switched in regards to her daughter and my ex - husband . and that 's when i would walk out because he would be mortified and i 'd be horrified . dylan : i do n't think you really want to go that way . sharon : no ? and that 's the problem . dylan : [ sighs ] sharon : what do i say ? dylan : you have to figure out a way to frame the truth in a way that makes you hirable . i know you . you can do this . come on . sharon : okay , um , jabot underwent some changes , and my position was phased out . which is actually true , because as far as i know , i was never replaced . dylan : is there anyone there who can vouch for your skills ? sharon : well , if you were to speak to mr. neil winters , the former head of fashion , i 'm sure he would tell you that i am dedicated , committed , and respectful . as a liaison , i had to work with both the management and the staff , and i was able to relate to both of them in a very effective and productive way . based on my own experiences , i have a compassion that helps me draw the best out of the people that i work with . it 's one of my best traits . i 'm really proud of it . dylan : wow . [ both laugh ] dylan : wow . you 're hired . you 're hired . when can you start ? sharon : yeah , if only it were that easy . dylan : actually , it is , because i have a job opening here . the pay -- it 's not good . the boss -- incredible . chelsea : this is my fault , not yours . i 'm the one who went to sage 's room . i 'm the one who asked her questions i had absolutely no right to ask . it 's -- it 's not about you lying . it 's about me , about who i am . it -- it goes back to my childhood , i guess . it 's about lying and cheating and skipping out on rent . it 's about my mother never telling me who my father was . it 's about me lying to dylan about connor and adam lying to me about delia . i am just screwed up . [ chuckles ] adam : no . chelsea : i do n't know how to be normal , and i do n't know how to really trust somebody or believe in somebody . it 's the truth . adam : stop it . none of this is your fault , okay ? chelsea : it -- it is . there 's always been some big lie in my life , you know ? whether it 's been one i told or a lie somebody else told me . and , um ... it ruins everything . it ruins my entire life , and that will happen . that will happen with you , too . adam : no . no . it wo n't . listen , if there 's one thing that i want you to believe ... it 's -- it 's in us . it 's this , what we have , okay ? if there 's a way for me to make that happen -- chelsea : but maybe -- maybe you ca n't . and that 's -- that 's because of me . that 's my fault , not yours . adam : listen , believe in this -- my feelings for you , all right ? everything i 've told you . that 's the truth . i 'm not going anywhere , okay ? come here . sage : no , please , nick . the thought of you and gabe getting into it , i ... i mean , you just got back , and i want to see you . will you just sit with me ? nick : of course . sage : [ groans ] nick : take it easy . sage : [ sighs ] nick : i 'm here . and i 'm not going anywhere . so do n't worry about me or gabe or the baby . i know that 's hard . sage : it 's not so hard . things happen during pregnancies , even when mothers do n't have surgery . this baby 's really special to me 'cause it might be my only chance . and you have kids already of your own , and ... nick : that 's why this baby means as much to me as any child ever has . i mean , this past year , i have seen all of my kids get their hearts broken , and it 's been ... it 's been really tough . you and this baby ... you 're my silver lining . you 're a sign that life can bring something new and amazing , even when the worst happens . i 'm scared . you and this baby , you mean so much to me . and the thought of anything happening to either one of you ... kyle : so you saw avery at the police station ? summer : yeah , but we did n't talk about the interview . kyle : well , she stopped by here first , and we did talk about it . and i think the interview 's a bad idea . abby : this is after he was sort of for it , by the way . summer : but you 're totally against it now , right ? kyle : i am . look , we do n't know what kind of questions they 'll ask or how they 'll twist the answers . you know , and if they twisted things and -- and hurt you somehow -- summer : which they could , and they probably would . kyle : right . abby : look , i do n't want my business out in the media , but ... kyle : seriously ? now you 're for it ? abby : no , you said it yourself . if it nudges paul to reopen the investigation and find out who 's really responsible ... okay , i 'm allowed to waffle . you already did . kevin : all right , you 've cut your lemons . now explain to me how this is a bad idea . they do the interview , the cops get on board , the actual , real killer could end up in jail . and i do n't buy that you do n't want to do the interview because you 're worried somebody might bring up ian . mariah : i do n't want to do the interview because if i say yes , i might end up going to jail . kevin : what ? that -- that 's insane . mariah : look , what if the killer did n't post that response on gc buzz ? what if it was someone who wanted to save your ass and keep you out of jail ? kevin : you posted the `` catch me , i 'm a crazy killer `` response ? are you crazy ? mariah : it was supposed to be a favor . you 're welcome . kevin : so it was a lie . which means the killer -- mariah : it was n't tobias gray , and it is n't me . but if the cops find out that i posted that response ... kevin , you 've got to help me . joe : well , there she is , my pillar of strength . well , your niece is no slouch , that 's for sure . you must be hungry . you want to get some lunch ? avery : you must be tired . you want some water ? joe : yeah , that 'd be great . thanks . avery : go get it , then . joe : what 's the matter , avery ? you mad about something ? avery : is there a reason i should be ? maybe because you 've been lying to me all this time ? how long have you been able to walk , joe ? !

[ previously_on ] devon : but when it comes to the bulk of what katherine left me , i 'm gon na give it to cane . cane : chance ? simon : this is your final warning . do you really want to risk your life , your son 's life , over some money ? chelsea : hope 's farm . is n't that a great idea ? you can finally show connor where you grew up . i mean , it 's your roots . adam : there is something that you 're not telling me . adam : dad , i do n't want anything to do with you . or your family . victor : you mean that ? adam : i do , because they 're not my family . they never were . nick : i 'm nicholas newman , and i 'm very proud to announce my candidacy for city council . jack : where 's your old man stand on this ? is he supporting your candidacy ? nick : have n't really talked to him about it , but my mother 's the one who convinced me to run and to do it on my own . nick : yeah , i do n't want to get too locked into talking points . i think i 'm at my best when i 'm just speaking honestly and from the heart , and i think the voters appreciate that . great , then we 're on the same page . cool , i will see you at the coffee house before the debate . thanks , jack . bye . hey , mom nikki : hello , darling . mwah ! how 's our candidate doing ? nick : well , i think i just shook a baby 's hand and kissed the mother on her head , but , other than that , everything 's great . nikki : [ laughs ] well , my sources tell me that you are really connecting with your voters . nick : well , it 's just the dimples . nikki : well , it could be more than that because you are working very hard for those votes , except for one . you have n't even told your father you 're running for office . victor : well , i must say , i 'm a little surprised to see you here after our last conversation . adam : well , i did n't think you 'd mind a visit from your grandson . victor : oh , connor 's always welcome here . adam : mm . i do n't think i 'm ever gon na get him out of your game room to start our road trip . victor : oh ? you 're going somewhere ? adam : yeah , that 's actually the other reason i came by . i need a favor . victor : huh . which is ? adam : i want to take connor to the farm . victor : oh . your mother 's farm in kansas ? adam : mm - hmm . victor : huh . adam : i know you own it now , so i was hoping that you would let us spend a little time there . victor : well , why the sudden interest in that farm ? adam : i would like to show my son where i grew up . he 's never gon na get to meet his grandmother , so i thought taking him there would give him a good sense of , uh , who she was . victor : and this is all right with chelsea ? adam : it was actually her idea . victor : really ? adam : mm - hmm . victor : she coming along ? adam : well , she has to work , and , um .. [ chuckles ] nick 's campaign . victor : uh - huh . well , son , i must say , i 'm a little amazed that , after all that has happened in the past few months , that chelsea would allow you to take the boy out - of - state . adam : [ clears throat ] abby : [ sighs ] oh , hey ! glad that i found you . i need to go over a few things with you . chelsea : sure . abby : um , the part that the plumber needed , it finally came in , so he 's gon na be fixing that leak , but i have to interview new staff , so i need you to take care of him . chelsea ? chelsea : sorry , what ? abby : are you looking for that handsome hotel guest , mr . black ? chelsea : have you seen him ? abby : no , i have n't , but why are you so obsessed with him ? what 's going on with you two ? chelsea : oh , i -- i told you , nothing . abby : oky , well , you 've been acting really weird since he got here . is there a problem ? chelsea : no , there is n't a -- what 's nick doing here ? abby : having a drink with his mom ? chelsea : why here ? abby : [ laughs ] i do n't know . i 'm guessing because his girlfriend and sister are co - owners . do you have a problem with that ? cane : damn it , chance ! chance : what 's the matter , cane ? did i come at a bad time ? cane : we 've been looking for you for months , and you turn up and bust me in the jaw ? what are you so pissed off about , anyway ? chance : i do n't know , theft , lies , the biggest scam i 've ever seen . does any of that ring a bell ? cane : oh -- [ scoffs ] okay , so -- so you think , what ? what do you think ? chance : you screwed devon out of $ 2.5 billion , because it sure seems that way . cane : okay , okay . no , it doesn't . what are you talking about ? chance : so this is n't amanda sinclair 's room ? the lawyer i supposedly hired to contest katherine 's will ? cane : wait , what do you mean , `` supposedly `` hired ? chance : i 've never met the woman . she 's a complete stranger to me , but obviously not to you . cane : oh , please . jill introduced me to her . chance : my grandmother 's not here , you are , in the hotel room of the woman that made you a billionaire . explain that to me . additional sponsorship cane : the problem is , you do n't have all the facts . chance : it 's hard to gather intel when people refuse to answer your questions . cane : oh , really ? who 's not answering your questions ? chance : my grandmother , for one . cane : so you -- you 've already spoken to jill ? chance : tried , but she was n't feeling real chatty , which is a dead giveaway she 's hiding something . cane : oh , okay , so now you think that she 's involved in this ? chance : i 'm asking , straight up . i want to know what the two of you have to do with this scam . cane : nothing . chance : tell me what you know . cane : [ scoffs , laughs ] okay . devon gets this letter from this attorney , amanda sinclair , saying that katherine 's will is being challenged . then she comes to town and says that you are the one challenging it , and then she shows us copies of the original pages and says that you gave them to her . then jill and devon call you , but you do n't bother to call them back . that 's what happening . chance : i 've been busy . cane : oh , you 've been busy ? okay . well , so have i . because i had to go to vegas to try and find you to get some answers , and , instead , i get knocked unconscious , i wake up in a dark room with the original pages of katherine 's will on a table that were taken out and replaced with the forgeries that gave devon the bulk of the estate . chance : instead of you . cane : there was also a letter from you that said you could n't see me because you were undercover . chance : let me get this straight . you get knocked out , these new will pages mysteriously show up , and all of a sudden , you 're a billionaire . am i the only one that thinks this sounds sketchy ? cane : all right , all right , let 's just cut the crap here . it does n't matter ! it does n't matter ! the pages have been authenticated , they are legit ! chance : great , case closed . cane : no , it 's not closed . because devon now accepts this to be the truth . chance : well , maybe he 'll rethink that when he finds out i had nothing to do with challenging katherine 's will . cane : well , let me tell you this . jill thinks that she might know who did , and now she 's gone off to see if her hunch is right . chance : do you want to let me in on the secret ? cane : she thinks it might colin . chance : [ scoffs ] your dad , the career criminal . that 's rich . cane : yeah , my dad , the career criminal . yeah , it does n't matter , okay , who discovered the forgeries . the fact is , the new pages are authentic . chance : tough luck for devon . cane : yeah , that 's right , tough luck for devon . it would n't have been if you 'd shown up sooner . chance : straight up , ashby , if you have something to say , then say it . cane : okay . you could have cleared this up months ago , so why the hell did n't you ? chelsea : why would i mind if nick met his mom here ? abby : i ca n't help wondering if it 's because of mr . black . chelsea : no ! no , i just -- i 've just been a little stressed lately . i have a lot going on , you know , between the hotel and connor , and now nick 's campaign . abby : i 'm sorry . is there anything i can do ? chelsea : i 'll be fine . abby : are you sure ? chelsea : positive . abby : all right , let 's go say hi to nick , then . chelsea : well , you know what , actually , i forgot that i have a meeting across town with the new linen supplier . abby : well , that 's not until later . chelsea : right . but traffic is terrible . besides , i get to see nick all the time , and it looks like he 's in the middle of something with his mom . abby : okay , well , is there a message that you 'd like me to pass along to mr . black , if i see him ? chelsea : i just wanted to make sure his stay was going well . i 'll check in with him later . nick : dad probably knew i was running for city council before i did . nikki : still , it would have been nice if he had heard it from you . nick : mom , i just do n't have time to hear a lecture about me putting my time and energy into public service is waste of my talents . nikki : that 's why you 're avoiding him ? nick : i 'm not avoiding him . i 'm prioritizing . i 'm trying to run a campaign here . i 'm sure you remember what that entails . nikki : i also remember how important the support of my family was . nick : sure , when they want to give it . nikki : so , do you think you can still speak to him ? i mean , he is your father . nick : okay , fine . i will talk to him . nikki : thank you . nick : i 'm just gon na tell him what my plans are . i will not defend my decision , and i 'm certainly not gon na beg for his vote . nikki : [ sighs ] adam : chelsea and i have been able to work through our trust issues . victor : so that means you 've dropped the idea of running away with your son ? adam : [ chuckles ] we both agreed to put our difference aside so we can help connor with his issues . victor : that 'll be nice . adam : mm . well , good parents do n't let their differences get in the way of doing what 's best for their children . but i do n't need to tell you that . victor : i think going away to the farm would be good for the boy . adam : yeah . i did spend some of the happiest days of my life there . connor : can we go , dad ? adam : you know , i was just telling your grandpa about our road trip . victor : so , you 're going to the farm where daddy grew up ? connor : yeah . victor : yeah ? connor : i 've never been . victor : oh , it 's a beautiful place , peaceful place . i loved it . connor : we 'll take lots of pictures so you can see what it looks like now . victor : yeah . when you go to the main house , i want you to walk outside and look to the left and see if there 's a big old elm tree , all right ? connor : do you know where it is , dad ? adam : yeah . yeah , i used to climb it when i was your age . victor : and , you know , when you look at the elm tree , about 4 feet up the trunk , you 'll see my initials . i carved them with my own knife . connor : i want to carve my initials next to yours . victor : well ... that 'd be nice . adam : mnh - mnh . victor : you know , i still have the pocket knife with which i carved it . you can use it , with your daddy 's help , and then we have my name , initials , your daddy 's , and yours . connor : yeah , we can both put our initials on the tree . adam : yeah , we sure can . connor : we should carve mom 's initials on the tree , too . hey ! let 's ask her to come with us ! adam : your mom is busy with her job . connor : ca n't she take a vacation ? adam : she just started at the hotel , and i really do n't think she 's gon na be able to get time off . connor : what if i have another nightmare ? she was the only one who could make me feel better last time . adam : hey , you know what , if we need to talk to your mom , we can call her . or we can video chat with her , hmm ? connor : it 's not the same as having her there . please , dad . it wo n't be a real trip unless we 're all together . can we at least ask her ? adam : all right . we can stop by the hotel , all right ? but no promises , okay ? we 'll try . victor : and guess what i found . here 's the knife with which i carved my initials into the elm tree . connor : can i see it ? victor : yeah . there you go . do n't open it , though . daddy better open it later on , okay ? connor : cool . victor : yeah . is n't that something ? enjoy your time with your boy , okay ? adam : i will . victor : and do n't you forget to take pictures for me , okay ? connor : i will . victor : i want to see them . okay . adam : well , we better get going . victor : all right . are you going on the trip ? adam : yeah , we just have , uh , one stop to make first . nikki : i was n't suggesting that you ask your father for his support or his vote . nick : well , i 'm pretty sure he 's not going to give me either . nikki : well , you wo n't know until you speak to him . nick : what i do know is that me running for public office does not fit into the grand scheme that dad has for the family . nikki : your father is not opposed to public service . nick : well , he is opposed to me doing anything out on my own . nikki : okay . i know how stubborn he can be , but ca n't you at least be grateful for the fact that he is still with us ? nick : wow , mom . that 's a low blow . nikki : did it work ? nick : look , i said i will talk to him . i do n't know what else you want from me . nikki : okay , okay . just go easy on him . nick : go easy on him ? abby : hey ! i wanted to wish you luck with the debate . i wish i could be there , but somebody 's got to hold down the fort . nick : oh , no problem . as long as it 's not chelsea . absolutely need her there . abby : nothing could stop her . chance : i do n't owe you any explanations , ashby -- if that is the name you 're using these days . cane : that 's great , coming from the guy that 's been messing with everybody 's mind for months . thanks . chance : i have n't done anything . cane : no ? well , you went incommunicado , which jut worried your friends and family , did n't it ? chance : you are neither . cane : well , lucky me . but you know who is ? jill . and it would be nice if you would just give her some answers . chance : right now , my duty is to my job . i ca n't allow myself to be distracted by this . cane : okay , all right , listen . whoever hired ms . sinclair has a legitimate claim to katherine 's will because the pages had been altered . chance : i have a case to solve . that 's why i came back to town . cane : oh , really ? so busting in here and hitting me in the mouth , that was just , what , for kicks ? chance : it sure did feel good . cane : okay . so i 'm gon na pretend that was an apology . chance : i 'll apologize to you if i find out you 're clean , but if i do n't -- [ cellphone chimes ] cane : what -- what are you doing ? chance : i 'm about to complete my mission . chelsea : yes , mom , i said $ 5 million . it does n't matter . i just need you to get it for me . [ sighs ] i do n't want to say names over the phone , but you know who to ask . tell him he owes us for that job we did for him . no ! no , i ca n't ask nick . no , and i certainly ca n't ask adam . look ... i do n't have time to explain , okay ? i 'm on a hard deadline here . mom , please stop asking questions . i am real danger . and so is connor now . [ sighs ] okay , calm down . mom , calm down , okay ? i convinced adam to take him out of town , but they ca n't stay out of town forever , and that 's why i need this money now . i have to pay this guy off . i know it 's not gon na be easy , but i 'm counting on you . [ sighs ] in the meantime , i 'm gon na need you to wire me that $ 1 million i gave you . hopefully , it 'll buy me some time until you give me the rest of the cash . i do n't want to think what 's gon na happen if it doesn't . [ sighs ] cane : well , amanda 's gon na be back soon , and she 'll confirm everything i 've told you . chance : shut it , ashby . cane : all right , well , look , i know you say that you 're not the one who hired her , okay ? but what is this -- this case you 're working on ? chance : it 's a year - long multi - agency operation that requires my full attention . [ cellphone chimes ] abby : okay , so `` do n't vote for me `` signs on your opponents ' back might be a little too much . nick : you think ? abby : well , i have a million other ideas . nick : that 's what scares me . abby : oh , well , i 'll call jack , and i will give him my input . nick : yeah , he 'll probably like that . abby : [ laughs ] look , i know that you 're not a big fan of my brilliant ideas , but i wish you a lot of luck on your debate . nick : thanks , sis . phyllis : hey ! i hear you 're facing off against two of gc 's finest leaders . abby : well , they 're no competition for nick . phyllis : personally , i like the candidate who wants to raise the number of chickens we 're allowed in our backyard to , uh , five . nick : so four is not enough ? phyllis : you would n't believe the chicken - to - egg ratio . i mean , it 's crazy . nick : well , why do n't you come by the debate ? we 'll have an open and spirited discussion on the poultry cap ? phyllis : um ... yeah , you know , i do n't think the public is ready for my brand of honesty . abby : hmm , who is ?

nick : sorry , i can't . there is something i need to take care of before the debate . nikki : we 'll be watching . nick : thanks , dad . victor : good luck , my boy . nick : bye . nikki : all right , bye , sweetheart . looks like you two had a good talk . victor : yeah . we were honest with one another . nikki : well , he was worried that you would disapprove about his decision to run for city council . victor : running for office is not what i had in mind for my son 's career , but ... having said that , i hope he kick the opponents ' butt . nick : hey , chels , it 's me . i 'm headed to the debate . i 'll see you there . if we have some time before it starts , there 's something i 'd like to talk to you about . amanda : can we please talk about katherine chancellor 's will now ? chance : it 's got nothing to do with me . amanda : are n't you even a little bit curious why someone was impersonating you ? chance : right now , i 've got more important things to worry about . but a word of advice -- how about , next time , you do your due diligence , counselor ? phyllis : oh ! ouch ! phyllis : hey . did you catch your man ? chance : not yet . phyllis : okay . i can help you . chance : it 's above your pay grade . phyllis : okay , listen , james bond , i 'm head of security here . i have access to the schematics in the building . also a bird 's - eye - view into -- chance : thank you , but i 've got this . phyllis : wow , you 're arrogant . chance : [ chuckles ] most people find me charming . [ cellphone chimes ] damn it . where 's your surveillance equipment ? phyllis : in my room . chance : lead the way . abby : i 'm sorry , everyone 's gon na have to just step out for just a few minutes . um , the top of the tower and crimson lights are in walking distance , so please go have a drink on us . it 'll just be a few minutes . tell them to bill the grand phoenix . simon : lock it . abby : [ sighs ] simon : move away from the door . get away from the door ! adam : look , simon , right ? another minute of this , you 're gon na be in big trouble . so you should really think about what you 're doing . simon : oh , i have . very carefully . i came to genoa city to collect something that belongs to me . now , i plan on doing that , getting out of here , and bypassing going to jail . chelsea : simon , please -- simon : chelsea , stop ! you brought it on yourself ! if you 'd have just done what i asked , we would not be in this ... unfortunate situation . now we just got to figure out a way to resolve this .
nikki encouraged nick to talk to victor about his campaign . abby disapproved when phyllis gave nick a kiss on the cheek for luck at his debate . she privately warned phyllis to keep her distance . adam took connor to the ranch to let victor know about the trip to hope 's farm , which now belonged to victor . victor learned that the trip was chelsea 's idea . victor gave connor his old pocket knife so that adam could help him use it to carve his initials into a tree on the farm . nick visited victor and discussed nick 's decision to run for office . while victor thought nick could achieve more than being in public office , he was proud of nick . victor revealed that adam and connor were going to kansas and it was chelsea 's idea . chance did n't hire amanda to contest the will , and he accused cane of scamming devon out of his inheritance . cane argued that it did n't matter who amanda 's real client was , since the pages of the will had been authenticated . chance was in town to conduct a sting operation on simon .
<s>[INST] [ previously_on ] devon : but when it comes to the bulk of what katherine left me , i 'm gon na give it to cane . cane : chance ? simon : this is your final warning . do you really want to risk your life , your son 's life , over some money ? chelsea : hope 's farm . is n't that a great idea ? you can finally show connor where you grew up . i mean , it 's your roots . adam : there is something that you 're not telling me . adam : dad , i do n't want anything to do with you . or your family . victor : you mean that ? adam : i do , because they 're not my family . they never were . nick : i 'm nicholas newman , and i 'm very proud to announce my candidacy for city council . jack : where 's your old man stand on this ? is he supporting your candidacy ? nick : have n't really talked to him about it , but my mother 's the one who convinced me to run and to do it on my own . nick : yeah , i do n't want to get too locked into talking points . i think i 'm at my best when i 'm just speaking honestly and from the heart , and i think the voters appreciate that . great , then we 're on the same page . cool , i will see you at the coffee house before the debate . thanks , jack . bye . hey , mom nikki : hello , darling . mwah ! how 's our candidate doing ? nick : well , i think i just shook a baby 's hand and kissed the mother on her head , but , other than that , everything 's great . nikki : [ laughs ] well , my sources tell me that you are really connecting with your voters . nick : well , it 's just the dimples . nikki : well , it could be more than that because you are working very hard for those votes , except for one . you have n't even told your father you 're running for office . victor : well , i must say , i 'm a little surprised to see you here after our last conversation . adam : well , i did n't think you 'd mind a visit from your grandson . victor : oh , connor 's always welcome here . adam : mm . i do n't think i 'm ever gon na get him out of your game room to start our road trip . victor : oh ? you 're going somewhere ? adam : yeah , that 's actually the other reason i came by . i need a favor . victor : huh . which is ? adam : i want to take connor to the farm . victor : oh . your mother 's farm in kansas ? adam : mm - hmm . victor : huh . adam : i know you own it now , so i was hoping that you would let us spend a little time there . victor : well , why the sudden interest in that farm ? adam : i would like to show my son where i grew up . he 's never gon na get to meet his grandmother , so i thought taking him there would give him a good sense of , uh , who she was . victor : and this is all right with chelsea ? adam : it was actually her idea . victor : really ? adam : mm - hmm . victor : she coming along ? adam : well , she has to work , and , um .. [ chuckles ] nick 's campaign . victor : uh - huh . well , son , i must say , i 'm a little amazed that , after all that has happened in the past few months , that chelsea would allow you to take the boy out - of - state . adam : [ clears throat ] abby : [ sighs ] oh , hey ! glad that i found you . i need to go over a few things with you . chelsea : sure . abby : um , the part that the plumber needed , it finally came in , so he 's gon na be fixing that leak , but i have to interview new staff , so i need you to take care of him . chelsea ? chelsea : sorry , what ? abby : are you looking for that handsome hotel guest , mr . black ? chelsea : have you seen him ? abby : no , i have n't , but why are you so obsessed with him ? what 's going on with you two ? chelsea : oh , i -- i told you , nothing . abby : oky , well , you 've been acting really weird since he got here . is there a problem ? chelsea : no , there is n't a -- what 's nick doing here ? abby : having a drink with his mom ? chelsea : why here ? abby : [ laughs ] i do n't know . i 'm guessing because his girlfriend and sister are co - owners . do you have a problem with that ? cane : damn it , chance ! chance : what 's the matter , cane ? did i come at a bad time ? cane : we 've been looking for you for months , and you turn up and bust me in the jaw ? what are you so pissed off about , anyway ? chance : i do n't know , theft , lies , the biggest scam i 've ever seen . does any of that ring a bell ? cane : oh -- [ scoffs ] okay , so -- so you think , what ? what do you think ? chance : you screwed devon out of $ 2.5 billion , because it sure seems that way . cane : okay , okay . no , it doesn't . what are you talking about ? chance : so this is n't amanda sinclair 's room ? the lawyer i supposedly hired to contest katherine 's will ? cane : wait , what do you mean , `` supposedly `` hired ? chance : i 've never met the woman . she 's a complete stranger to me , but obviously not to you . cane : oh , please . jill introduced me to her . chance : my grandmother 's not here , you are , in the hotel room of the woman that made you a billionaire . explain that to me . additional sponsorship cane : the problem is , you do n't have all the facts . chance : it 's hard to gather intel when people refuse to answer your questions . cane : oh , really ? who 's not answering your questions ? chance : my grandmother , for one . cane : so you -- you 've already spoken to jill ? chance : tried , but she was n't feeling real chatty , which is a dead giveaway she 's hiding something . cane : oh , okay , so now you think that she 's involved in this ? chance : i 'm asking , straight up . i want to know what the two of you have to do with this scam . cane : nothing . chance : tell me what you know . cane : [ scoffs , laughs ] okay . devon gets this letter from this attorney , amanda sinclair , saying that katherine 's will is being challenged . then she comes to town and says that you are the one challenging it , and then she shows us copies of the original pages and says that you gave them to her . then jill and devon call you , but you do n't bother to call them back . that 's what happening . chance : i 've been busy . cane : oh , you 've been busy ? okay . well , so have i . because i had to go to vegas to try and find you to get some answers , and , instead , i get knocked unconscious , i wake up in a dark room with the original pages of katherine 's will on a table that were taken out and replaced with the forgeries that gave devon the bulk of the estate . chance : instead of you . cane : there was also a letter from you that said you could n't see me because you were undercover . chance : let me get this straight . you get knocked out , these new will pages mysteriously show up , and all of a sudden , you 're a billionaire . am i the only one that thinks this sounds sketchy ? cane : all right , all right , let 's just cut the crap here . it does n't matter ! it does n't matter ! the pages have been authenticated , they are legit ! chance : great , case closed . cane : no , it 's not closed . because devon now accepts this to be the truth . chance : well , maybe he 'll rethink that when he finds out i had nothing to do with challenging katherine 's will . cane : well , let me tell you this . jill thinks that she might know who did , and now she 's gone off to see if her hunch is right . chance : do you want to let me in on the secret ? cane : she thinks it might colin . chance : [ scoffs ] your dad , the career criminal . that 's rich . cane : yeah , my dad , the career criminal . yeah , it does n't matter , okay , who discovered the forgeries . the fact is , the new pages are authentic . chance : tough luck for devon . cane : yeah , that 's right , tough luck for devon . it would n't have been if you 'd shown up sooner . chance : straight up , ashby , if you have something to say , then say it . cane : okay . you could have cleared this up months ago , so why the hell did n't you ? chelsea : why would i mind if nick met his mom here ? abby : i ca n't help wondering if it 's because of mr . black . chelsea : no ! no , i just -- i 've just been a little stressed lately . i have a lot going on , you know , between the hotel and connor , and now nick 's campaign . abby : i 'm sorry . is there anything i can do ? chelsea : i 'll be fine . abby : are you sure ? chelsea : positive . abby : all right , let 's go say hi to nick , then . chelsea : well , you know what , actually , i forgot that i have a meeting across town with the new linen supplier . abby : well , that 's not until later . chelsea : right . but traffic is terrible . besides , i get to see nick all the time , and it looks like he 's in the middle of something with his mom . abby : okay , well , is there a message that you 'd like me to pass along to mr . black , if i see him ? chelsea : i just wanted to make sure his stay was going well . i 'll check in with him later . nick : dad probably knew i was running for city council before i did . nikki : still , it would have been nice if he had heard it from you . nick : mom , i just do n't have time to hear a lecture about me putting my time and energy into public service is waste of my talents . nikki : that 's why you 're avoiding him ? nick : i 'm not avoiding him . i 'm prioritizing . i 'm trying to run a campaign here . i 'm sure you remember what that entails . nikki : i also remember how important the support of my family was . nick : sure , when they want to give it . nikki : so , do you think you can still speak to him ? i mean , he is your father . nick : okay , fine . i will talk to him . nikki : thank you . nick : i 'm just gon na tell him what my plans are . i will not defend my decision , and i 'm certainly not gon na beg for his vote . nikki : [ sighs ] adam : chelsea and i have been able to work through our trust issues . victor : so that means you 've dropped the idea of running away with your son ? adam : [ chuckles ] we both agreed to put our difference aside so we can help connor with his issues . victor : that 'll be nice . adam : mm . well , good parents do n't let their differences get in the way of doing what 's best for their children . but i do n't need to tell you that . victor : i think going away to the farm would be good for the boy . adam : yeah . i did spend some of the happiest days of my life there . connor : can we go , dad ? adam : you know , i was just telling your grandpa about our road trip . victor : so , you 're going to the farm where daddy grew up ? connor : yeah . victor : yeah ? connor : i 've never been . victor : oh , it 's a beautiful place , peaceful place . i loved it . connor : we 'll take lots of pictures so you can see what it looks like now . victor : yeah . when you go to the main house , i want you to walk outside and look to the left and see if there 's a big old elm tree , all right ? connor : do you know where it is , dad ? adam : yeah . yeah , i used to climb it when i was your age . victor : and , you know , when you look at the elm tree , about 4 feet up the trunk , you 'll see my initials . i carved them with my own knife . connor : i want to carve my initials next to yours . victor : well ... that 'd be nice . adam : mnh - mnh . victor : you know , i still have the pocket knife with which i carved it . you can use it , with your daddy 's help , and then we have my name , initials , your daddy 's , and yours . connor : yeah , we can both put our initials on the tree . adam : yeah , we sure can . connor : we should carve mom 's initials on the tree , too . hey ! let 's ask her to come with us ! adam : your mom is busy with her job . connor : ca n't she take a vacation ? adam : she just started at the hotel , and i really do n't think she 's gon na be able to get time off . connor : what if i have another nightmare ? she was the only one who could make me feel better last time . adam : hey , you know what , if we need to talk to your mom , we can call her . or we can video chat with her , hmm ? connor : it 's not the same as having her there . please , dad . it wo n't be a real trip unless we 're all together . can we at least ask her ? adam : all right . we can stop by the hotel , all right ? but no promises , okay ? we 'll try . victor : and guess what i found . here 's the knife with which i carved my initials into the elm tree . connor : can i see it ? victor : yeah . there you go . do n't open it , though . daddy better open it later on , okay ? connor : cool . victor : yeah . is n't that something ? enjoy your time with your boy , okay ? adam : i will . victor : and do n't you forget to take pictures for me , okay ? connor : i will . victor : i want to see them . okay . adam : well , we better get going . victor : all right . are you going on the trip ? adam : yeah , we just have , uh , one stop to make first . nikki : i was n't suggesting that you ask your father for his support or his vote . nick : well , i 'm pretty sure he 's not going to give me either . nikki : well , you wo n't know until you speak to him . nick : what i do know is that me running for public office does not fit into the grand scheme that dad has for the family . nikki : your father is not opposed to public service . nick : well , he is opposed to me doing anything out on my own . nikki : okay . i know how stubborn he can be , but ca n't you at least be grateful for the fact that he is still with us ? nick : wow , mom . that 's a low blow . nikki : did it work ? nick : look , i said i will talk to him . i do n't know what else you want from me . nikki : okay , okay . just go easy on him . nick : go easy on him ? abby : hey ! i wanted to wish you luck with the debate . i wish i could be there , but somebody 's got to hold down the fort . nick : oh , no problem . as long as it 's not chelsea . absolutely need her there . abby : nothing could stop her . chance : i do n't owe you any explanations , ashby -- if that is the name you 're using these days . cane : that 's great , coming from the guy that 's been messing with everybody 's mind for months . thanks . chance : i have n't done anything . cane : no ? well , you went incommunicado , which jut worried your friends and family , did n't it ? chance : you are neither . cane : well , lucky me . but you know who is ? jill . and it would be nice if you would just give her some answers . chance : right now , my duty is to my job . i ca n't allow myself to be distracted by this . cane : okay , all right , listen . whoever hired ms . sinclair has a legitimate claim to katherine 's will because the pages had been altered . chance : i have a case to solve . that 's why i came back to town . cane : oh , really ? so busting in here and hitting me in the mouth , that was just , what , for kicks ? chance : it sure did feel good . cane : okay . so i 'm gon na pretend that was an apology . chance : i 'll apologize to you if i find out you 're clean , but if i do n't -- [ cellphone chimes ] cane : what -- what are you doing ? chance : i 'm about to complete my mission . chelsea : yes , mom , i said $ 5 million . it does n't matter . i just need you to get it for me . [ sighs ] i do n't want to say names over the phone , but you know who to ask . tell him he owes us for that job we did for him . no ! no , i ca n't ask nick . no , and i certainly ca n't ask adam . look ... i do n't have time to explain , okay ? i 'm on a hard deadline here . mom , please stop asking questions . i am real danger . and so is connor now . [ sighs ] okay , calm down . mom , calm down , okay ? i convinced adam to take him out of town , but they ca n't stay out of town forever , and that 's why i need this money now . i have to pay this guy off . i know it 's not gon na be easy , but i 'm counting on you . [ sighs ] in the meantime , i 'm gon na need you to wire me that $ 1 million i gave you . hopefully , it 'll buy me some time until you give me the rest of the cash . i do n't want to think what 's gon na happen if it doesn't . [ sighs ] cane : well , amanda 's gon na be back soon , and she 'll confirm everything i 've told you . chance : shut it , ashby . cane : all right , well , look , i know you say that you 're not the one who hired her , okay ? but what is this -- this case you 're working on ? chance : it 's a year - long multi - agency operation that requires my full attention . [ cellphone chimes ] abby : okay , so `` do n't vote for me `` signs on your opponents ' back might be a little too much . nick : you think ? abby : well , i have a million other ideas . nick : that 's what scares me . abby : oh , well , i 'll call jack , and i will give him my input . nick : yeah , he 'll probably like that . abby : [ laughs ] look , i know that you 're not a big fan of my brilliant ideas , but i wish you a lot of luck on your debate . nick : thanks , sis . phyllis : hey ! i hear you 're facing off against two of gc 's finest leaders . abby : well , they 're no competition for nick . phyllis : personally , i like the candidate who wants to raise the number of chickens we 're allowed in our backyard to , uh , five . nick : so four is not enough ? phyllis : you would n't believe the chicken - to - egg ratio . i mean , it 's crazy . nick : well , why do n't you come by the debate ? we 'll have an open and spirited discussion on the poultry cap ? phyllis : um ... yeah , you know , i do n't think the public is ready for my brand of honesty . abby : hmm , who is ? [ laughs ] nick : what 's the matter , you chicken ? phyllis : [ gasps ] nick : [ laughs ] phyllis : a candidate who has a sense of humor . finally . abby : you know what , phyllis , um , i have some questions for you about that very complicated and expensive security system . you had installed . phyllis : well , it does not shock me that you are baffled by our high - tech security system . abby : i need to know how to use it . in case i ever need to use it . [ laughs ] phyllis : okay . great , then come to my room , and i 'll show you . nick : okay . seems like this is going great . phyllis : yeah . nick : i 'm gon na take off . phyllis : okay , good luck . nick : oh ! thanks . abby : and now -- now you have lipstick on your cheek . much better . nick : [ chuckles ] you two play nice . simon : excuse me , i 'm sorry to bother you . could you tell me how to get to chancellor park ? nick : oh , yeah , sure , man . just go out the entrance , head south for about three blocks . it 's on your left - hand side . you ca n't miss it . simon : cool . i hear it 's one of the most beautiful places in genoa city . nick : it really is . you , uh , new in town ? simon : visiting . nick : okay . business , pleasure ? simon : well , if things work out like i hope , both . nick : all right . simon : oh , wait . i recognize you . you 're , uh -- you 're running for city council , right ? nick : yeah , first time in the political arena . simon : i hope you have a good woman in your corner . nick : you have no idea . she 's the best . hey , enjoy your visit . simon : thank you . good luck . nick : thanks . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . abby : i read an article in a hospitality trade magazine about a hotel chain based outside of milwaukee . their servers were hacked , and their entire system was taken over by ransomware . phyllis : mm . it happens . abby : it cost them a small fortune in cryptocurrency to regain control of their computers . phyllis : hacking is big business . abby : so i 've heard . phyllis : what do you want to know about our system ? abby : well , i want to make sure that this high - priced security software that you had me install is gon na protect against an attack like this . phyllis : our servers are completely secure . abby : you 're sure ? phyllis : yes . i 'm sure . our customers are protected from any sort of attack . there is even a silent alarm behind the check - in desk , just in case it 's needed . abby : well , i hope it 's not . phyllis : i hope it 's not , too . abby : still , i would like to see for myself . it 's on your laptop , right ? phyllis : oh , no , no , no , no , no , no , no ... relax . the interface is , uh , very complex . it 's not user - friendly . i 'm gon na have to take you through it . abby : please . phyllis : okay . abby , all right , so i already , uh , told you how the system works . so i will go over our server protocol . um .... i 'll start with this . so , let 's see here . our finances are protected in a blockchain cryptographically right here . the passwords -- as you can see , they 're very , very complex , and if it detects any intruder , the whole system goes into lockdown , and no one can get in . abby : you 're sure that this software is gon na do its job . phyllis : yes , i am . but we 're not here because you wanted a tutorial on our cybersecurity , are we ? you just wanted to keep me away from nick . abby : well , you obviously were n't listening the other day when i told you to keep your distance . phyllis : yeah , well , unfortunately , since you do n't have a life , you 're interested in mine . abby : [ sighs ] phyllis : stick around . you can watch me hack into your social security number . abby : cross the line , phyllis . see what happens . [ door slams ] victor : glad to see you , son . i understand you have a lot on your plate these days . nick : i wanted to come by and see you , see how you 're doing . victor : uh - huh . doing well . beyond expectations , actually , as the doctor tells me . nick : glad to hear it . victor : yeah . how are things with you ? nick : great , uh , new hope is thriving , christian 's doing awesome ... victor : mm - hmm . nick : he is , uh , starting pee - wee basketball soon . victor : oh , he is ? i 'd love to come and watch one of the games . nick : i will get you the schedule . victor : all right . nick : i 'm assuming you 've heard i 'm running for public office . victor : yeah . heard something about that . nick : safe to say , you are , uh , not on board with that ? victor : well , let me just put it this way . i generally have nothing against someone , you know , uh , doing something in public service . nick : how about for me , specifically ? victor : well , you want me to be honest with you , i always hoped that you would aim a little higher than that . nick : does it bother you that i did n't consult you , or that i may , you know , harm the newman family name if i lose ? victor : well , you ca n't harm the newman family name because you 've decided not to use that name . nick : well , if i win , i wanted to do it on my own merits , not because , you know , i 'm a newman . victor : are you ashamed of being a newman ? nick : never . very proud of who i am . i want you to be proud of me , too . even if that means , you know , going out on my own from time to time . victor : son , you have always known that i 'm very proud of you , okay ? and i 'm perfectly aware that you have a lot of potential . i just want you to achieve all you are capable of achieving . nick : and i get to decide what that is . i know i 'm gon na disappoint you from time to time , which i 'm okay with . the question is -- are you okay with it ? phyllis : hey ! amanda : uh , hello . phyllis : i heard you were sticking around . amanda : did you ? phyllis : yeah . well , it 's no secret that you 're representing nate in his medical board hearing . um ... i approve . amanda : you approve ? you barely know me . phyllis : mm , i can see a fellow barracuda a mile away .

who is that guy ? simon : excuse me . excuse me . do you mind if i borrow ms . lawson for a moment ? adam : yes . i do mind . victor : now , son , i know that we do n't always see eye to eye , nick : we 've our share of disagreements in the past . i 'm sure there 's gon na be plenty more . i just want to make sure that , uh , this does n't affect our relationship going forward . victor : well , you know , i 'm not about to change , right ? i always tell you the truth . nick : with all the lies in our family , i 'd be a real hypocrite if i complained about you telling the truth . victor : even if it 's something you do n't want to hear ? nick : i can deal with that . just as long as you understand i 'm not always gon na take your advice . victor : understood . nick : then we 're good . victor : oh , well , i 'm glad we cleared the air . nick : me , too . i should get going . victor : all right . nick : i 'm supposed to meet jack before the debates . victor : mm , now , wait a minute here . you do n't even know who i 'm gon na vote for . nick : that is between you and the ballot box . victor : oh , yeah ?

[ sighs ] damnit , those should be your concerns , and i just want to see you smile and i want to see you laugh , and if it means being a whimsical ass , then -- hey , i 'll do it . theresa : you dummy . you did n't make me laugh , you made me cry . brady : i did n't mean to do that . theresa : i love you . brady : i love you and that makes my life worth living , theresa . theresa : hey , well , you know one -- one plus about a makeshift wedding in a bedroom -- brady : hmm ? theresa : you can go straight from the `` i dos `` to the honeymoon . brady : so smart . so smart . theresa : [ laughs ] clyde : i know you 're trying to get me riled up . i know you 're stalling , hoping the cavalry come , but it ai n't gon na happen , 'cause of your brother , who happens to think you 're as worthless as i do . he undid all the security in the tunnel . you think it 's just bad luck that i 'm standing here , next to the panic button ? hmm ? no . 'cause andy - boy told me where that was , too . if you 're wondering why i 'm deliberately pushing that button , it 's because it does n't work , 'cause i watched him cut the wires to that . so this is n't your fortress anymore , chad . no , sir . this is a tomb . andré : look what i found ! come in . clyde : do they know where the baby is ? andré : no . but now we have leverage , and one of them is gon na tell us where the baby is . [ suspenseful music ] clyde : or one of them dies . nicole : you came back . i did n't think much of you , xander , but i did n't think you were stupid . xander : oh , i 'd be careful if i were you . nicole : right back at you . you better be very , very careful . you do n't want a murder charge tacked on to your already ridiculously long list of offenses , including trying to kill me and eric brady in an especially cruel and sadistic way , i might add . xander : i was provoked . nicole : oh , right . of course . it gave you every reason to want to murder two innocent people because -- why ? you were annoyed ? xander : far more than annoyed . nicole : okay , fine . you were pissed off . but you know what -- i do n't -- i do n't want to talk about that . i do n't want to talk about the why s and the how s of what a disgusting , despicable criminal you are , okay ? let 's just stay on track . i know what you need . you need money . lots and lots of money , 'cause living on the run , it 's expensive and you know that . xander : that ring you 're trying to palm , that 's worth a lot . i know about diamonds , remember ? nicole : yeah , i -- i remember . this might , what ? might get you a fake passport ? supply and demand . prices have been driven sky high . it 's a cruel world , xander . xander : do n't move ! nicole : i 'm not -- i 'm not armed . i -- i just -- i need to arrange for my ransom and your safe passage out of salem . okay ? [ sighs ] you know , xander , i just ca n't help but think you did n't choose wisely when it came to your partners in crime . i mean , i think they 're -- they 've got to be fanatics . they do n't care if they live or die . but if i know my xander , he likes to live and live large , and lucky for you , your uncle said he would do anything i asked him to . i have him on speed dial . you 'd be out of here in no time . [ phone rings ] deimos : nicole ? xander : sorry , this is xander . she 's a bit ... tied up at the moment . deimos : you listen to me , nephew . if anything happens to her , your life wo n't be worth living . xander : do n't threaten me . not while i 'm holding all the cards . deimos : what do you want ? xander : money . and a lot of it . deimos : all right , fine . meet me at the mansion . bring nicole . xander : i did n't get stupid in prison , uncle . just meaner . so listen , here 's what you 're going to do . so it seems you 've reached the sixth stage of grief , bagging a new rich boyfriend . nicole : were you popular in prison ? did all the guys enjoy your wit ? [ knocking ] [ suspenseful music ] deimos : you all right ? nicole : so far . deimos : i 've made arrangements for you to go back to greece . your itinerary , your tickets are right there in the outside pocket . xander : [ chuckles ] seems like you 've thought of everything . except now that i 've got this , why do n't i just shoot you and take her as insurance ? deimos : well , for one thing , if i do n't communicate with certain people every step of your odyssey , they 're gon na blow your worthless brains out . xander : with this much money , i can chart my own odyssey . deimos : that may be true . but there is one thing that you really want . one thing that i can give you . theresa donovan . brady : oh , close your eyes . close 'em . theresa : ' kay . brady : forward . stay . [ `` jesu , joy of man 's desiring `` ] brady : i am ready . theresa : [ giggles ] chad : now , look , they -- they -- they do n't have anything to do with this . andré : on the contrary , they 're here to take care of the child . and my brother chad , no , he 's far too busy and much too important to take care of the child himself . they 're staff , and he and kate are running my business , our family business , into the ground . clyde : hey , can it , andré . just tell me , do they know where the baby is ? chad : no , i -- i do n't -- andré : they have to . clyde : all right . let 's just hear it from the horse 's mouth . where 's the baby ? answer me , damn it ! where 's the baby ? adrienne : safe . clyde : if i do n't find him , you do n't go on living . adrienne : i 'd rather die than give you two seconds with that baby . lucas : just stay calm , okay ? let 's just slow this conversation down . clyde : let me say this . would you rather me shoot you with him watching or vice versa ? or do you want to tell me what i need to know ? lucas : listen , it does n't need to be that way , all right ? adrienne : shoot us both , we 're not gon na tell you anything ! lucas : adrienne , enough ! please . clyde : [ chuckles ] well , that fact that you two are still here is proof that the baby is , too . now , this is a big house , but it 's not that big , so i will find him eventually . so why do n't i let the lady decide who goes first ? [ shot rings out ] adrienne : [ screams ] no ! [ sobbing ] [ dramatic music ] adrienne : [ sobbing ] clyde : what the hell ? andré : he was coming up from behind . clyde : you said he was mine . andré : well , you can take the credit . adrienne : [ sobbing ] clyde : shut her up . lucas : adrienne -- clyde : shut up ! lucas : we 're gon na be okay . it 's gon na be all right , please . clyde : shut up and listen ! adrienne : no !

[ sobbing ] brady : you have said before that i rescued you , that i saved you from yourself . theresa : you are my hero . brady : well , i 'm honored you would say something like that . when we first met , theresa , nobody was more lost than i was . now , with you and tate , my god , i -- i just know i 'm on the right path . and where i was once so empty , my god , you have just filled me up . theresa : [ sniffles ] brady : so nobody else out there may know it , but between you and me ... theresa : [ laughs ] brady : you saved me . theresa : oh , brady . you are the kindest , most generous , sweetest person i know , to act like , to act like somehow i saved you and somehow i helped you . well , you know what ? i -- i think that you were right and i was wrong . this -- this is the right thing to do . we should get married alone . [ laughs ] i think you 're the only person in the whole , wide world i 've ever shown my true self to . you know the part of me that is just so hurt and so scared . and you love me anyway . and that makes me feel not so scared and not so hurt . and more than anyone , god , you have seen me at my worst . and , you know , i think when we first met , i had just completely given up on myself . and i did n't think that i could be a good person , but you proved me wrong again . and i love you . brady : i love you . deimos : that is what you want , is n't it ? i mean , come on , you did n't come here with your happy band of killers because you all enjoy blowing up power plants , am i right ? you came back here , the most dangerous place on earth for you for one reason : to pay back theresa donovan . nicole : deimos , do n't do this . deimos : [ sighs ] nicole , i 'm sorry , but this is war , and in war , there 's always collateral damage . nicole : i wo n't let you do this . deimos : you do n't have much of a choice . so come on , what 's your word ? what is it ? xander : if you can make this happen , if you can guarantee this duffel bag and i get safe passage to greece , then you 've got a deal . deimos : all right . let 's do it . nicole : no ! no , you ca n't do this ! what happened to you ? you told me you changed ! deimos : nicole ! i have to do this . i do n't want to . i 'm doing it to protect you . nicole : no , come on , please . what about brady and theresa ? do n't do this ! deimos : i do n't want to lose you like i lost helena . nicole : if you do this , you will lose me . i will hate you forever . xander : seems you ca n't guarantee squat , uncle . how are you gon na stop her from talking to the cops or theresa ? deimos : i 'm not gon na give her the opportunity to do either . nicole : help ! help , i need help ! i -- [ gasps ] [ muffled screaming ] deimos : it 's all right .

'cause i plan on holding onto you until death do us part . brady : me , too . [ zipper closes ] xander : so when do i get my hands on theresa ? deimos : tonight . pier 17 . i 'll test you when i know exactly what time i 'm gon na drop her off . you can get reacquainted . once you 've taken care of business , i 'll have a freighter there waiting to take you back to greece . xander : man , i just wish i could see the look on brady 's face when he sees her cold , battered body . deimos : well , there 's always snapchat . xander : well , you 're a cold - hearted bastard . do you really think nicole 's just going to forgive and forget ? deimos : it does n't really matter . xander : this is about more than just letting nicole go , is n't it ? deimos : thanks to your friend 's little surprise appearance at the wedding , theresa is not yet a member of the family . she 's not a kiriakis , she 's not an heir . and once brady sees her cold , battered body , as you so aptly put it , i do n't see him remaining clean and sober for very long . and of course , there 's victor , and as i 'm sure we can both agree , that old man can not live forever . xander : just philip and you . deimos : mm , well , maybe for a while . xander : and then there was one . you know , i wish i had gotten to know you a little bit better . i like the way you think . deimos : i want to make one thing very clear to you , though : this deal , this safe passage to greece , it 's a ticket for one . you and you alone . xander : not to worry . i 've severed ties with orpheus and clyde weston . they both have their own agendas . deimos : all right , then .

[ laughs ] mrs. harris : thank you . thank you . um , i better go before i cry and lose all credibility . thank you . jack : you 're welcome . ashley : i want a hug . jack : i guess that could be arranged . ashley : oh ! wow , i 've never seen martha harris get that emotional , not ever . jack : we just gave her enough money to run her program for a year . ashley : that 's so wonderful . jack : hey , you got a minute ? i 'd love to sit and have a cup of coffee and tap your brain . ashley : okay , what 's up ? jack : i want to talk about fenmore 's . the rumor is lauren is reaching out to potential investors . ashley : but not you . jack : since when has that ever stopped me ? gloria : whoa . lauren : what do you think you 're doing ? gloria : [ chuckles ] i might ask you the same thing . your company 's in terrible shape , lauren . you have n't been exactly honest about that , have you ? lauren : what ? ! gloria : you have been jumpy and irritable since i got here , and i could n't quite figure it out . but now it makes perfect sense . so how long 's this been going on , huh ? does anybody else know ? like , for instance , oh , gee , your husband . victoria : you know , i thought that when i said you could live here , it meant you agreed to follow my rules , reed . reed : mom , chill . it 's not a big deal . victoria : your first day of registering at school and you pull a vanishing act ? i mean , how is that not a big deal ? reed : i did n't vanish . god , i told you i was with a friend . victoria : yeah , that 's the last i heard of you , and that was hours ago ! you did n't respond to any of my texts ! reed : i did n't want to bother you . victoria : oh , excuse me ? what ? someone is repeatedly trying to get ahold of you ? it 's not like that thing is ever out of your hands . reed : billy knew where i was . [ door closes ] reed : did n't you , billy ? billy : yeah , uh , he called me from the guitar store at the mall and asked me to give him a ride home . victoria : why did n't you ask me instead of bothering billy ? reed : i thought you 'd be busy . victoria : well , billy is just as busy as i am . billy : it was n't a problem , vick , honestly . victoria : [ sighs ] reed : [ sighs ] thanks again for the ride , dude . billy : yeah . you think maybe you can give him a break this time ? it 's really okay that he called me . victoria : yeah , really ? it 's okay ? it 's not okay with me . lily : [ sighs ] how does a witch like hilary get so lucky ? neil : devon is in serious condition . he has a head injury . i would hardly call that lucky . lily : dad , you know what i mean . i just ca n't believe he does n't remember anything . it 's like he was finally ready to dump her , and now she 's this saint that he 's madly in love with . neil : before you go in there and try to rectify things -- lily : yeah , i know , i know . we ca n't get him upset . i know . neil : honestly , there 's nothing we can do about it , sweetie . we 're just gon na have to deal with it . lily : how are you okay with this ? neil : you 're putting words in my mouth . lily : really ? am i ? neil : of course . hey , come on . devon deserves to know about what happened on new year 's eve . just not now . he 's not out of the woods . lily : he left that party madder than i have ever seen him . and now she 's in here lying , pretending to be this florence nightingale . and you might be able to be patient and bide your time , but it bothers the hell out of me . hilary : whoa , whoa . drink it slowly . you just woke up . devon : [ weakly ] thank you . thank you . hilary : can i get you anything else ? devon : no , just you . it meant so much to open my eyes and see you here . hilary : well , i 'm gon na be by your side till i can take you home with me . [ sighs ] you 've been through such an ordeal , and you -- you need time . you need to let your body heal . devon : yeah . i was out for a while , huh ? hilary : i was so scared . devon : i 'm sorry . hilary : i 'm just happy that you 're finally awake . devon : me , too . hey . what 's going on with you and lily ? because it seems like things are worse than usual . why is that ? billy : what did reed do wrong , exactly ? victoria : he ignored my texts . i had no idea where he was or when he was gon na be home . it was also wrong of him to expect you to be his personal taxi service , just drop everything . you know how he arrived on the doorstep , right ? the police brought him here off of a bus . billy : yeah , and i think we got to give him props . i mean , he made it all the way here only paying part of the fare . victoria : are you kidding me ? you 're no better than he is . i mean , at some point you have to learn to be accountable , billy . billy : guilty . victoria : no , i 'm talking about reed right now . billy : no , vick , you 're talking about me . now , i may not be that kid 's dad , but you ca n't help but see a little bit of me every time you look at him . victoria : i 'm really glad that you 're finding this so amusing , because i do n't . billy : look , i 'm glad that he trusts me enough to call me when he needs help or when he needs a ride . it 's better than thumbing it or doing a number of stupid things that i did at his age . and yet none of that explains why you 're this mad because he called me for a ride . yet i do have a theory . victoria : oh ! i really do n't care about your theory . billy : which is exactly why you need to hear it , okay ? new year 's eve , we had a moment . we almost kissed , and it kind of freaked you out . it got to you , and now you do n't want me close to you and you do n't want me close to your son . victoria : i ca n't believe you 're bringing this up again . we did n't almost kiss , all right ? billy : mm - hmm . victoria : it did n't happen . and your theory is stupid . and this is about reed . if he wants to be a part of this family , then he wants to be around -- billy : he needs to listen to you and listen to your rules . i understand that . and while he 's trying to figure out what you expect from him , you can do a better job at trying to learn a little bit more about him . victoria : well , i would do that if -- if he was n't always rushing off to come to you . billy : okay , fine . when he calls me , i will pass it on to you . does that sound good ? victoria : yeah , do that , please . billy : okay , fine . victoria : [ sighs ] thanks . billy : yeah . victoria : [ sighs ] jack : the final report from the consulting firm . ashley : jabot : today and tomorrow . `` very slick . jack : they are the best in the business . ashley : so what does the topline say , jack , in a nutshell ? jack : they say we are in an upward trajectory over the next five years , not just in finding new markets for our skin - care line but also in broadening our reach in the fashion world . ashley : and you think the next step is for us to buy out lauren , even though her sales have been in a major slump . jack : fenmore 's is still a gold standard . women are drawn to that store . they see it as a source of class and style . ashley : mm - hmm . mainly because of lauren . jack : i would keep lauren on . she would head up the creative team while we do the business work . it 's a win / win for everyone . ashley : you can say that all you want , jackie , and maybe even have the research to back it up . but , you know , fenmore 's is more than just a brand to lauren , just like jabot is to us . jack : this is business , ash . ashley : ohh ! gee , i wonder who that sounds like . jack : do n't even think about going there . ashley : jack , do you remember the times that we 've lost jabot or come close to losing jabot , how agonizing that was for us ? that 's exactly how this is gon na be for lauren . now , maybe she is looking for an infusion of cash , but i 'm not so sure she 'd be happy being just another subsidiary under jabot 's umbrella . jack : then i will have to artfully remind her that when it rains , an umbrella comes in very handy . lauren : remind me to put a password on this . gloria : what in heaven 's name is happening to your company ? lauren : fenmore 's just had an off quarter . gloria : uh - huh . no , it 's more than that . lauren : i 'm expecting a rebound by spring . gloria : oh , come on , lauren . how naive do you think i am ? i have been in fashion . i know what graphs and spreadsheets mean . that little `` off quarter `` you 're talking about ... is a much bigger downward trend . lauren : all right , trends change . gloria : mm - hmm . lauren : and it takes patience and hard work . gloria : michael does n't know about this , does he ? why on earth would n't you confide in your husband ? lauren : [ sighs ] he 's just had so much going on . his cancer and being censured after victor 's trial . i mean , he almost got disbarred . he almost lost his livelihood . and the one thing that we could both count on was fenmore 's . i mean , he 's finally back to being himself , you know ? he 's getting his practice back on track , and the last thing he needs to know is that my business has issues . gloria : shh , shh , shh , shh . do n't you worry about it . i 'll keep your little secret . lauren : with the right investor , i can weather this . gloria : of course ! of course we will . we 're not finished . and we 're not going to give in to gloom and doom . lauren : `` we `` ? gloria : yeah ! what kind of mother - in - law would i be if i let you go through this alone ? ha , no , no , no , no , no . we are in this together . and i am ready to go to work on this immediately . lauren : [ sighs ] lily : it is so hard having to pretend like i do n't hate hilary 's guts . neil : hey , lily . why do n't you go back to work ? there 's nothing you can do here . lily : i really hope he gets his memory back . neil : hey . we have no control over that . but what we do have control over is how we react and to stay positive and get him well . okay ? lily : okay . i 'm gon na go . just , uh , call me if anything changes . neil : yeah , i will . devon : hey , you would tell me if there was something wrong , right ? hilary : nothing 's wrong . everything 's good . everything is great . devon : yeah ? hilary : you are gon na make a full recovery . i 'm sure of that . devon : [ sighs ] my head hurts , but ... hilary : you had a concussion . stitch said it 's gon na take a little while before all of your symptoms are completely gone . devon : how long is `` a little while `` ? hilary : you need time to let your body heal , okay ? you ca n't rush this . devon : i have things i have to take care of , like the show . hilary : no , no , i do n't want you to worry about the show . i 'm gon na handle everything . devon : i 'm pretty lucky . hilary : no , i am the lucky one . we can learn from this , devon . to never let anyone or anything get between us . devon : nothing ever could , honey . hilary : you 're right . i 'll make sure of it . ashley : hey . billy : oh , you were so close to getting your lab back . you just had to cut a deal with victor so jack could have his benefit , huh ? ashley : how 'd you find out ? billy : oh , i hear things . unfortunately for you , it looks like brash & sassy 's gon na be around for a little while . ashley : hmm . billy : any regrets ? ashley : i 'd miss seeing you around here . billy : aww . ashley : life is more interesting when you 're in it . billy : wow . so few people feel that way . ashley : [ laughs ] i did not get to say happy new year to you 'cause you and victoria snuck out before the big countdown . billy : we had a sick boy at home , and once we got him to bed , we had to deal with another kid . ashley : katie got sick , too ? billy : no . reed showed up out of nowhere . ashley : really ? billy : yep . ashley : wow . i thought he was in d.c. with j.t . and mackenzie . billy : yeah , well , j.t . got a job overseas , and reed did n't want to leave his school year and move halfway across the world . ashley : wow . so he ends up on his mom 's front door , huh ? billy : yeah . and i feel for him . i understand what he 's going through . it 's hard to be away from family , and he 's got a bunch of friends here when he was younger . ashley : mm - hmm . kind of sounds like you 're happy to have him back . billy : i am , actually . ashley : what about victoria ? billy : well , she loves her boy , obviously . i mean , she 's having a hard time with it , though . kind of threw her for a loop . ashley : well , i 'm sure you 'll be around to help out as much as you can , right ? billy : yeah . not if victoria has anything to say about it . [ elevator doors open ] billy : [ sighs ] this is -- this is your floor . i forgot to press mine . ashley : no , you 're here . come on in . come on , i want to hear more about victoria and reed . billy : no , no , no , no , no , no . jack has a three - headed monster around here making sure i do n't violate jabot 's sacred turf . ashley : do n't worry about him . i 'm gon na buy you a cup of coffee . victoria : yeah , let 's move the focus groups to pittsburgh and do the copy testing in atlanta . no , i - i -- no , you -- you go ahead . i do n't need to sign off on it . i have some personal issues that i 'm dealing with , so i may not be coming into the office today . yeah , i know . at least we do n't have to worry about being evicted . [ electric guitar blares ] victoria : what the ... ? hold on a second , cane . reed ! reed , turn it down ! [ music continues ] victoria : [ sighs ] lauren : it 's a very generous offer , gloria . i appreciate it -- gloria : wonderful , wonderful ! so where would you want me to start ? my strong suit is managing people . i suggest i be in charge of all the buyers . lauren : what i was trying to say is , i believe in keeping work and family separate . gloria : oh , come on . for heaven 's sakes . i worked with chloe when she was married to kevin . there was no bloodshed -- until , of course , she started losing her you - know - what . lauren : you have such a big life . you love to travel and have adventures . i could n't take that away from you . gloria : you 're not . i 'm volunteering . lauren : i do n't think you 're understanding what i 'm saying . gloria : okay , look at it this way . if i work with you , we both have an interest in keeping those bad numbers our little secret . and then we do n't have to trouble michael for all the things you 've been hiding from him . lauren : gloria , are you trying to blackmail me into giving you a job ? gloria : [ chuckles ] me ? of course not . i 'd never dream of doing such a thing . [ doorbell rings ] gloria : i 'll get it . jack : gloria . i guess lauren drew the short straw . gloria : nice to see you , too , jack . a long time . jack : never long enough . hilary : where 's lily ? neil : i sent her back to the club . hilary : that 's good . devon 's sleeping now , so there 's no point in us all hanging around here . neil : let him rest as comfortably as possible ... for now . hilary : what do you mean , `` for now `` ? neil : you know what i mean . hilary : you heard what stitch said , neil . neil : yeah , i did . i did hear what stitch said , and that 's why i sent her away , because i did n't want you two to get into it again . and do n't think that you 're gon na get away with any of this , 'cause you best believe that devon 's gon na know the truth eventually . hilary : devon may never get his memory back from that night . neil : you better hope he does n't . jack : i heard you were visiting . all of the cosmetics counters in town have sent out an amber alert warning their customers to check their face cream . gloria : that 's funny , jack . i hear all the lawyers are checking their wills to make sure you did n't fake any . lauren : okay , let 's just call this a draw and move on , all right ? jack : absolutely . how are you , lauren ? though with a guest like this , i can probably tell you . lauren : i 'm just fine . are you here to see michael ? jack : actually , i 'm here to see you . lauren : oh . gloria , would you give us a moment ? gloria ? gloria : no problem . jack : sorry to come by unannounced , but you have n't exactly been returning my calls . lauren : well , why do n't you have a seat ? i 've been trying to catch my breath after the holidays . jack : well , this being a brand - new year , i 'll get right to it . i heard that fenmore 's was looking for investors , and i 'm , frankly , a little hurt that you did n't call me first . lauren : well , jabot already has a fashion division . why would you want to invest in fenmore 's ? jack : why would i not want to invest ? it is fenmore 's . your reputation is amazing . your customers love you . and the opportunities for vertical integration are , uh , considerable . lauren : hmm . you make an interesting case . jack : shall i go on ? lauren : umm ... one thing . there 's something you should know , if you do n't already . jack : about ? lauren : about a recent hire i made to help me revamp my online presence . up until a few days ago , she was one of your employees . jack : phyllis is working for you now ? lauren : she never said anything about it ? jack : no , she told me she had a project she wanted to pursue , but she never elaborated more than that and i never asked . lauren : yeah , so , uh , if this truly is the first you 're hearing about it , i 'm sure the last thing you 'd want to do is be in business with your ex , and i 'm sure you 'll withdraw the offer . jack : you could n't be more wrong . ashley : coming ? billy : is this some sort of ploy to get jack and me talking again ? because i do n't want to go around and around with that man right now . ashley : jack is outside the building in a meeting , okay ? it 's just the two of us . see ? no jack waiting to jump out at you , not even phyllis lurking somewhere in the background . everybody 's moved on . or have they ? billy : i 'm not mooning over phyllis , if that 's what you 're trying to imply . ashley : no , actually , that 's very good news , but i was wondering if maybe , uh , there 's a reason victoria does not want you to spend more time with reed . billy : well , i tried to talk to her about it , but i got nowhere . thank you . ashley : and , um , out of curiosity , uh , are you wanting to spend time with reed so you can get closer to victoria ? [ cell phone rings ] billy : oh , look at that . ashley : oh . billy : it 's a telephone call . if it 's business , i can step out . it 's not a problem . ashley : actually , it 's personal . billy : what ? you have a personal life , ash ? ashley : yes . i have plans tonight , billy . billy : plans ? ashley : yeah , i have a date , okay ? i actually have a date . billy : wow . ashley : he wants to know where we should meet . billy : it 's about time you have a man in your life . ashley : yeah , well , one date does not exactly a relationship make , but thanks for caring . billy : well , it 's got to feel good to have the possibility of somebody special in your life again . ashley : are we still talking about me ? billy : oh , no . no , where it comes to victoria , she makes no bones about where she stands , and it 's far away from me . [ music blaring ] victoria : reed ! turn it off now ! reed , do you hear me ? ! reed , what was that ? ! reed : it was n't my fault . this old house must have blown a fuse . victoria : well , your mother 's about to blow one , too ! hilary : you and lily are so self - righteous . neil : yeah . you telling me that you did n't drive my son away in a total rage ? hilary : you did n't give me the chance to talk to him . my husband ran off , and you would n't let me go after him . neil : well , because he was so desperate to get away from you . and the way you were acting , i do n't blame him . hilary : who the hell are you to judge me ? assuming that you know everything about everyone . you know what everyone 's thinking , right ? you know what everyone 's feeling . well , maybe you 're wrong , neil . maybe you do n't know . maybe devon had second thoughts when he pulled out of that parking lot or maybe he was turning around and coming back home to me when he hit that patch of ice and crashed . neil : in the state that he was in , that 's highly unlikely . hilary : well , it 's not impossible . come on . admit it , neil . you have no idea what devon was gon na do . you and lily , you guys love to think the worst of me , so you naturally assume that devon was gon na end our marriage . but i have to say , i 'm not convinced . neil : [ scoffs ] you 're deluded . hilary : [ scoffs ] well , considering how devon has been treating me today , how loving and grateful , i think that you 're the one in denial . neil : devon may be loving with you today , but you are living on borrowed time , my dear . see , even if he does n't remember the events that led up to the crash , he 's gon na find out that you did mariah dirty on live tv , how you humiliated her to get your own way . like a spoiled little girl . and that right there is gon na be devon 's wake - up call . he is gon na be disgusted with you all over again . hilary : let 's get something straight , neil . i am devon 's wife . and i intend to stay married to him until he decides otherwise . mariah : hey . lily : hi . mariah : i have n't heard anything . how 's devon ? lily : he 's good . he woke up this afternoon . mariah : thank god . i 've been thinking about him all day . what did the doctors say ? is he gon na be all right ? lily : yeah , he 's still in intensive care . he has a concussion and some internal injuries , and they said be very careful not to upset him . mariah : i 'm sure he 's plenty upset just from what he 's been through and from finding out who he 's married to . lily : nope , devon is deliriously happy . mariah : happy ? lily : yeah . no recollection of anything leading up to the accident . mariah : wow . i guess hilary dodged a bullet , then . lily : [ scoffs ] not for long . hilary : hey . it is so nice to see you getting so much rest . devon : where 's neil and lily ? hilary : they , uh , they wanted to give us some time alone . devon : i 'm glad that you 're here . hilary : you were there for me when i was scared that i would slip back into that coma . where would i be now that you 're hurt , hmm ? in sickness and in health , remember ? devon : i do . i do . about the show ? you said that you were handling things and ... hilary : theo 's recutting some classic gc buzz episodes . devon : reruns ? hilary : it 'll be fine . devon : how long is that gon na be fine when you 're about breaking news and -- hilary : hey , did you hear what i said ? i do n't want you to give this a second thought . okay , it 's just tv . it 's not life . and i have my priorities straight . right now all i care about is you and our marriage . devon : you do n't have to worry about that . hilary : i am gon na worry about it until i get you home and back on your feet . devon : we do n't know how long that 's gon na take . hilary : devon , you were in a terrible accident . it is a miracle that you 're even alive . and yeah , it 's gon na take some time . but i promise you , i am gon na be there with you every step of the way . reed : you find it ? ! victoria : uh , well , it 's either the red switch or the green one ! reed : green ! definitely green ! victoria : okay , here it goes . [ sighs ] the second i switched the green switch , there was this hideous grinding noise . i think i did something to the furnace . reed : must have been the red switch , then . victoria : i 'm glad that you find this so funny . you 're not gon na find it so funny when it 's below zero and you 're freezing tonight and you ca n't charge your cell phone . reed : what are we gon na do ? victoria : i do n't know . it 's too late in the day to get a repairman out here . reed : why do n't you call billy ? he probably knows how to fix it . victoria : why ? because he 's a man ? reed : no , because he lived here . he 's probably dealt with the furnace before . victoria : yeah , well , he 's never dealt with having a teenager who thinks he 's jimi hendrix . reed : mom , just call billy . victoria : no , reed ! i 'm not gon na call billy every time something goes wrong . we 're divorced . you 're just gon na have to deal with that , okay ? just stay put . i 'm gon na try the red switch . [ sighs ] reed : five , four , three , two ... victoria : oh , my -- damn it ! oh ! when i did the red switch then , i think i did something to the hot water heater . do n't say it ! reed : fine , i wo n't say another word . you know , if it gets cold enough , we can always just go to grandpa 's . victoria : all right . this is a one - time thing , and only so we do n't freeze to death , okay ? help me find my phone . ashley : i 'm gon na make you a deal , billy . billy : what 's that ? ashley : i will not give you any advice about victoria if you promise not to grill me about my date . billy : it 's that serious , huh ? ashley : that 's a question ! i get to ask you a question . billy : all right . ashley : so , are you and victoria really over ? billy : we had a moment -- a small moment -- on new year 's eve , but it turned out to be a case of `` auld lang syne . `` ashley : that song always gets me . billy : yeah . we should do this more often . ashley : i agree . billy : it 'll be my second new year 's resolution -- spending more time with my sister ashley . ashley : what 's your first ? billy : ah ! that would be a question . thank you so much for playing the game . [ cell phone rings ] billy : looks like we 're both popular today . ashley : hmm . do i even have to ask ? billy : [ sighs ] jack : merging with fenmore 's makes sense for jabot . it 's just good business . lauren : well , i 'm not questioning your instincts or your ability . jack : then you 'll listen to my offer ? lauren : i 'd rather not . jack : come on . give me one good reason why . lauren : because you are so skilled at what you do . you and i both know the best strategy for you is to buy out fenmore 's stores and then sell off my plum locations just for real - estate value . well , i have no intention of watching anybody liquidate my father 's legacy ! jack : if you ca n't raise the money , how you gon na keep the doors open ? lauren : oh , i will find a way . jack : what if i offer you in writing a promise that i will keep fenmore 's intact ? will you hear me out then ? lauren : i 'm very flattered by your interest , but the answer is no . i am gon na hold out for the right kind of investor . jack : a silent partner . good luck with that . look , i - i admire your loyalty . lauren : just not my smarts . jack : no , those are your words . i have nothing but respect for you as a businesswoman . lauren : well , thank you for the compliment . and on that note ... jack : this is a fair offer . think about it . lauren : thank you , jack . it was nice to see you . gloria : you handled that just right . we have to keep fenmore 's a family business , and you were wise to turn jack down . lauren : i ca n't believe you were listening ! what am i saying ? of course i can believe you were listening . gloria : shh . do n't worry . my lips are zipped . i would never betray the boss 's trust . lauren : i am not your boss ! i never will be , so just knock it off ! gloria : hmm . with that attitude , you 're bound to lose . lauren : [ scoffs ] gloria : jack is not going to give up without a fight . believe me , lauren . i 've been down in the mud with him plenty of times ! and it ai n't pretty . neil : hi , ladies . lily : hi . neil : got room for one more ? lily : yeah , of course . you want something to drink ? you want coffee ? neil : no , i 'm good . thanks . lily : so , any chance that devon got his memory back ? neil : sweetheart , i would have called you if he had . mariah : guys , i 'm so sorry . i feel so responsible for what happened . lily : no , mariah , do n't . i told you . mariah : no , i know what you told me . but if i had n't changed hilary 's script in front of all those people -- lily : then no one would know how cruel and petty she could be , and that would be a shame . neil : yeah , mariah , you 're not to blame for any of this . lily : yeah , she was vicious to you , and you wanted justice . there 's nothing wrong with that . neil : you know , when the time is right , and devon remembers what happened , hilary will get what 's coming to her . let 's face it -- there 's nothing she can do now anyway . lily : except make herself indispensable to devon . hilary : i have some good news for you . devon : can i go home ? hilary : uh , not that good . but you are coming off the critical list and they 're moving you into a regular room soon . devon : oh , yeah ? that 's progress , then . hilary : yeah , i think it 's progress , especially considering a few hours ago you were unconscious . devon : yeah . before that i was driving like a maniac on some random road miles away from home . i do n't even know where the hell i was going . hilary : it does n't -- it does n't matter anymore . you know , you 're back and you 're alive , and you are gon na be just fine . devon : i know . i know , and believe me , i 'm grateful . i just wish that i knew why i did that . hilary : okay , shhhhh . okay , you just need rest . just rest . reed : nailed it ! billy : there you go . now that you 've mastered the circuit breaker , you never have to call me again . victoria : good . reed : do n't you have something else you want to say to billy ? victoria : thank you . billy : oh , no , no , no `` thank you `` necessary . i 'll just send you a bill in the mail . victoria : ha ha ha , billy . billy : and you , slash . reed : you know guns n ' roses ? billy : come on , man . before you were born . listen , this is not your stage , okay ? this is your mother 's home , and your brother and sister live here , too , so you got to turn it down a few decibels , okay ? victoria : more than a few . billy : and when you do n't want to do that , here . wear those . reed : oh , my god . these are amazing . billy , thank you . billy : you 're welcome . and for you , old - fashioned earplugs . lauren : jack does n't worry me . gloria : he should . lauren : we 've been friends for practically forever . gloria : yeah , there are friends , and there are people who want you to think they are friends . lauren : okay , paranoia aside , fenmore 's is a privately held company . jack ca n't buy what i refuse to sell . gloria : lauren , jack abbott will take that as a challenge , not an impediment . believe me , i know how his mind works . lauren : i 've handled the situation . got it , gloria ? jack : no , lauren turned me down . ashley : told you she would n't be interested . jack : no , she will be , sooner or later . if rumors are true , we would be her best hope for saving fenmore 's . it 's not over yet . ashley : we 'll see . bye . [ telephone rings ] jack : yes , pamela . who 's on the phone ? you 're kidding me . n - no , no , um , i 'll talk to her . what the hell do you want ? gloria : no , it 's what you want , jack , namely fenmore 's , and i can help you get it . jack : now , why would you do that ? gloria : let 's just say my daughter - in - law does n't always know what 's best for her . [ next_on ] ravi : ashley , hey . uh , come in . ashley : what are you doing here , phyllis ? jack : what 's in all this for you ? gloria : small role in company . jack : how small ? lauren : i have not been honest with you .

<s>[INST] jack : our proceeds from the benefit exceeded all expectations . neil and i are very proud and very happy to give you this contribution for your jobs for all program . mrs. harris : thank you . oh , my goodness . t - t - this is , uh ... this will run our jobs training program for an entire year . jack : you and your program provide a vital next step for so many of our clients , helping them prepare to find work again after they 've conquered their addictions . it 's hard to rebuild a life when you 're working in a vacuum . you need people . you need a helping hand . mrs. harris : [ voice breaking ] i do n't know how to thank you , mr. abbott . could i hug you ? [ laughs ] jack : call me ja -- jack . [ laughs ] mrs. harris : thank you . thank you . um , i better go before i cry and lose all credibility . thank you . jack : you 're welcome . ashley : i want a hug . jack : i guess that could be arranged . ashley : oh ! wow , i 've never seen martha harris get that emotional , not ever . jack : we just gave her enough money to run her program for a year . ashley : that 's so wonderful . jack : hey , you got a minute ? i 'd love to sit and have a cup of coffee and tap your brain . ashley : okay , what 's up ? jack : i want to talk about fenmore 's . the rumor is lauren is reaching out to potential investors . ashley : but not you . jack : since when has that ever stopped me ? gloria : whoa . lauren : what do you think you 're doing ? gloria : [ chuckles ] i might ask you the same thing . your company 's in terrible shape , lauren . you have n't been exactly honest about that , have you ? lauren : what ? ! gloria : you have been jumpy and irritable since i got here , and i could n't quite figure it out . but now it makes perfect sense . so how long 's this been going on , huh ? does anybody else know ? like , for instance , oh , gee , your husband . victoria : you know , i thought that when i said you could live here , it meant you agreed to follow my rules , reed . reed : mom , chill . it 's not a big deal . victoria : your first day of registering at school and you pull a vanishing act ? i mean , how is that not a big deal ? reed : i did n't vanish . god , i told you i was with a friend . victoria : yeah , that 's the last i heard of you , and that was hours ago ! you did n't respond to any of my texts ! reed : i did n't want to bother you . victoria : oh , excuse me ? what ? someone is repeatedly trying to get ahold of you ? it 's not like that thing is ever out of your hands . reed : billy knew where i was . [ door closes ] reed : did n't you , billy ? billy : yeah , uh , he called me from the guitar store at the mall and asked me to give him a ride home . victoria : why did n't you ask me instead of bothering billy ? reed : i thought you 'd be busy . victoria : well , billy is just as busy as i am . billy : it was n't a problem , vick , honestly . victoria : [ sighs ] reed : [ sighs ] thanks again for the ride , dude . billy : yeah . you think maybe you can give him a break this time ? it 's really okay that he called me . victoria : yeah , really ? it 's okay ? it 's not okay with me . lily : [ sighs ] how does a witch like hilary get so lucky ? neil : devon is in serious condition . he has a head injury . i would hardly call that lucky . lily : dad , you know what i mean . i just ca n't believe he does n't remember anything . it 's like he was finally ready to dump her , and now she 's this saint that he 's madly in love with . neil : before you go in there and try to rectify things -- lily : yeah , i know , i know . we ca n't get him upset . i know . neil : honestly , there 's nothing we can do about it , sweetie . we 're just gon na have to deal with it . lily : how are you okay with this ? neil : you 're putting words in my mouth . lily : really ? am i ? neil : of course . hey , come on . devon deserves to know about what happened on new year 's eve . just not now . he 's not out of the woods . lily : he left that party madder than i have ever seen him . and now she 's in here lying , pretending to be this florence nightingale . and you might be able to be patient and bide your time , but it bothers the hell out of me . hilary : whoa , whoa . drink it slowly . you just woke up . devon : [ weakly ] thank you . thank you . hilary : can i get you anything else ? devon : no , just you . it meant so much to open my eyes and see you here . hilary : well , i 'm gon na be by your side till i can take you home with me . [ sighs ] you 've been through such an ordeal , and you -- you need time . you need to let your body heal . devon : yeah . i was out for a while , huh ? hilary : i was so scared . devon : i 'm sorry . hilary : i 'm just happy that you 're finally awake . devon : me , too . hey . what 's going on with you and lily ? because it seems like things are worse than usual . why is that ? billy : what did reed do wrong , exactly ? victoria : he ignored my texts . i had no idea where he was or when he was gon na be home . it was also wrong of him to expect you to be his personal taxi service , just drop everything . you know how he arrived on the doorstep , right ? the police brought him here off of a bus . billy : yeah , and i think we got to give him props . i mean , he made it all the way here only paying part of the fare . victoria : are you kidding me ? you 're no better than he is . i mean , at some point you have to learn to be accountable , billy . billy : guilty . victoria : no , i 'm talking about reed right now . billy : no , vick , you 're talking about me . now , i may not be that kid 's dad , but you ca n't help but see a little bit of me every time you look at him . victoria : i 'm really glad that you 're finding this so amusing , because i do n't . billy : look , i 'm glad that he trusts me enough to call me when he needs help or when he needs a ride . it 's better than thumbing it or doing a number of stupid things that i did at his age . and yet none of that explains why you 're this mad because he called me for a ride . yet i do have a theory . victoria : oh ! i really do n't care about your theory . billy : which is exactly why you need to hear it , okay ? new year 's eve , we had a moment . we almost kissed , and it kind of freaked you out . it got to you , and now you do n't want me close to you and you do n't want me close to your son . victoria : i ca n't believe you 're bringing this up again . we did n't almost kiss , all right ? billy : mm - hmm . victoria : it did n't happen . and your theory is stupid . and this is about reed . if he wants to be a part of this family , then he wants to be around -- billy : he needs to listen to you and listen to your rules . i understand that . and while he 's trying to figure out what you expect from him , you can do a better job at trying to learn a little bit more about him . victoria : well , i would do that if -- if he was n't always rushing off to come to you . billy : okay , fine . when he calls me , i will pass it on to you . does that sound good ? victoria : yeah , do that , please . billy : okay , fine . victoria : [ sighs ] thanks . billy : yeah . victoria : [ sighs ] jack : the final report from the consulting firm . ashley : jabot : today and tomorrow . `` very slick . jack : they are the best in the business . ashley : so what does the topline say , jack , in a nutshell ? jack : they say we are in an upward trajectory over the next five years , not just in finding new markets for our skin - care line but also in broadening our reach in the fashion world . ashley : and you think the next step is for us to buy out lauren , even though her sales have been in a major slump . jack : fenmore 's is still a gold standard . women are drawn to that store . they see it as a source of class and style . ashley : mm - hmm . mainly because of lauren . jack : i would keep lauren on . she would head up the creative team while we do the business work . it 's a win / win for everyone . ashley : you can say that all you want , jackie , and maybe even have the research to back it up . but , you know , fenmore 's is more than just a brand to lauren , just like jabot is to us . jack : this is business , ash . ashley : ohh ! gee , i wonder who that sounds like . jack : do n't even think about going there . ashley : jack , do you remember the times that we 've lost jabot or come close to losing jabot , how agonizing that was for us ? that 's exactly how this is gon na be for lauren . now , maybe she is looking for an infusion of cash , but i 'm not so sure she 'd be happy being just another subsidiary under jabot 's umbrella . jack : then i will have to artfully remind her that when it rains , an umbrella comes in very handy . lauren : remind me to put a password on this . gloria : what in heaven 's name is happening to your company ? lauren : fenmore 's just had an off quarter . gloria : uh - huh . no , it 's more than that . lauren : i 'm expecting a rebound by spring . gloria : oh , come on , lauren . how naive do you think i am ? i have been in fashion . i know what graphs and spreadsheets mean . that little `` off quarter `` you 're talking about ... is a much bigger downward trend . lauren : all right , trends change . gloria : mm - hmm . lauren : and it takes patience and hard work . gloria : michael does n't know about this , does he ? why on earth would n't you confide in your husband ? lauren : [ sighs ] he 's just had so much going on . his cancer and being censured after victor 's trial . i mean , he almost got disbarred . he almost lost his livelihood . and the one thing that we could both count on was fenmore 's . i mean , he 's finally back to being himself , you know ? he 's getting his practice back on track , and the last thing he needs to know is that my business has issues . gloria : shh , shh , shh , shh . do n't you worry about it . i 'll keep your little secret . lauren : with the right investor , i can weather this . gloria : of course ! of course we will . we 're not finished . and we 're not going to give in to gloom and doom . lauren : `` we `` ? gloria : yeah ! what kind of mother - in - law would i be if i let you go through this alone ? ha , no , no , no , no , no . we are in this together . and i am ready to go to work on this immediately . lauren : [ sighs ] lily : it is so hard having to pretend like i do n't hate hilary 's guts . neil : hey , lily . why do n't you go back to work ? there 's nothing you can do here . lily : i really hope he gets his memory back . neil : hey . we have no control over that . but what we do have control over is how we react and to stay positive and get him well . okay ? lily : okay . i 'm gon na go . just , uh , call me if anything changes . neil : yeah , i will . devon : hey , you would tell me if there was something wrong , right ? hilary : nothing 's wrong . everything 's good . everything is great . devon : yeah ?

<s>[INST] thomas : why did you think that you could n't tell me ? caroline : i do n't ever want you to feel obligated . thomas : no , but i am obligated . you are the mother of my son . we 're in this together . caroline : thomas , we have n't been in this together for a long time . thomas : caroline , things were different back then , but your diagnosis changes everything . caroline : and i 'm not happy about that . bill : she 's mad at me for telling you . i told you she would be . katie : but eric is all right ? brooke : please tell me sheila was n't with him . katie : ugh . brooke : oh , no ! katie : that is a problem . steffy : yeah , i know . you do n't know the half of it . i 'm just really hoping that dad can convince him to come home . brooke : you told ridge where eric is ? r.j. : hey , mom , you wanted to see us ? katie : um , yeah . we should probably be working . steffy : we got that thing . katie : right . okay . let 's go . um , good luck ! brooke : i heard from lieutenant baker . r.j. : so much for confidentiality . brooke : breaking the law is a matter of public record . because texting and driving is a threat to everybody . ridge : nice company you 're keeping . eric : i thought i could trust steffy . clearly not . ridge : she did n't want to tell me . i pulled it out of her . she 's scared for you . we 're all scared , dad . eric : this whole family pattern is getting kind of old , is n't it ? you stab me in the back and then you wring your hands and you fret about me ? ridge : i understand running . but you can never run far enough . i will always find you . brooke : i hope you both understand you were very lucky . r.j. : we do . coco : yeah , it -- it could have been a lot worse than just paying a fine . brooke : if you come away from this thinking `` whoo - hoo ! we 're lucky to get away with this , `` well , then the fine and the close call and the loss of a very expensive car will all be for nothing . the fact is , you 're lucky to be alive . katie : so , uh , is the , uh , swimwear line up to your very high standards ? wyatt : almost . katie : almost ? wyatt : mm - hmm . katie : well , what 's missing ? because heads will roll . wyatt : well , do you remember the movie with elizabeth taylor where she went down to the beach in the white swimsuit and when she came out , it was transparent ? can we get some of those ? katie : you know , that 's a really good idea , but i think that it 's more appropriate for the men 's line , so what size are you ? wyatt : we 'll scratch that idea . it 's a bad idea . eric : to the victor go the spoils . why do n't you go home and enjoy them ? ridge : i moved off the property . eric : with quinn ? ridge : no , of course not with quinn . she -- she barely leaves the house , as far as i can tell . eric : well , that 's very unlike you , is n't it ? do n't you usually like to take possession of the women you steal ? ridge : what do you want to hear ? because i will tell you everything . either in there or through the door . but it 's gon na get said today . shirley : [ sighs ] i 'm trying to find out how you sleep on a private jet , and this internet , i am down a rabbit hole . sally : i will wear my clothes while i sleep . that is what people do on planes . shirley : honey , i am just trying to be supportive of you and tom of forrester . i call him that in my head sometimes . makes him sound like robin hood . sally : i thought you were convinced that i was doomed to lose him to his high society baby mama . shirley : hmm , you know what ? i 'm big enough to admit when i 'm wrong . especially when being right would bankrupt us . thomas : what about douglas ? what -- you know , when you ... i love your moms , but i need my boy . caroline : i mean , we have separate lives , thomas . we 've always had separate lives . i was married , and -- then you were playing the field . i love douglas , but ... he was n't made out of love . we -- we both know that . thomas : that was different . brooke : would you play a video game while driving ? coco : no . brooke : would you watch tv ? r.j. : okay , mom , we get it . brooke : you can only operate one piece of machinery at a time -- a car or a phone . you do agree , do n't you ? r.j. : is using a phone in the car much different than talking to somebody in the back seat ? brooke : honey , do you have a conversation with somebody in the back by typing on a small keyboard ? r.j. : okay , well , then is much different than having a radio or an mp3 player in the car ? brooke : look , i 'm gon na tell you a story . i had a boyfriend in high school , and he was a very good musician . we all knew he 'd be a star . he got signed by a record label right away , first time out . with that money , he went and he bought a car . but he died in that car . he was with his little sister . she survived . and you know what she said ? he was fiddling with the radio stations , trying to find which station was playing his single . that is when the accident happened . r.j. : i 'm sorry . mom , i -- i did n't know . brooke : no , the whole point is it 's just not worth to drive distracted . it 's very , very dangerous . it takes 3 seconds -- that 's it . 3 seconds to lose control . and then you destroy your life and anybody else around you . you may feel safe driving a big , comfy car , yeah , but you 're not . and anybody on that road around you is not safe either if you 're driving distracted . thomas : can you tell me about this auto - immune disorder ? i just -- i do n't know enough . bill : this one is so rare that it does n't even have a name . it 's a cluster of symptoms that do n't respond to any ... caroline : god , can you please just stop ? thomas : no , it 's fine . i know that i do n't have a right to ask you these questions ... bill : well , if not now , when ? we do n't know how much time we have . caroline : i said stop ! look , i get it that you 're trying to say all the right things , but do you have any idea , any clue as to how offensive it is that you only want to be with me because you think i 'm dying ? thomas : that 's -- that 's not true . that has never been true . i 've always wanted to be with you . while i was in new york , i was heartbroken that -- that you did n't want me . i just want to spend whatever time that we have left together . ridge : we ca n't go on like this . eric : you 're the last person i need to justify myself to . ridge : fair enough . you know what day this is , right ? it 's the day when everyone leaves for monte carlo . everyone except quinn . remember last year ? she came and surprised you . it 's the anniversary of you getting together . it 's the first time you became public . and you told everyone how much you love her . and you have n't stopped loving her . so why are you here ? r.j. : okay , mom , what you do n't get is that when my phone goes off , it 's somebody looking for me . brooke : r.j. , nobody trying to reach you wants to be the cause of your death or anybody else 's . just let it ring , and they will leave a message . you can get back to them later . let that be the new normal . that tree could have been another car . and they could be dead right now . so could you . coco : yeah , you 're right . you 're very right . brooke : honey , i do n't know what i would do without you , if something ever happened to you . so , please , just be careful while i 'm in europe , okay ? r.j. : i 'll wait for you to get home for me to be my bad self . brooke : no , you wo n't . r.j. : no . brooke : [ laughs ] sally : what am i forgetting ? shirley : thomas ! sally : no , i 'm meeting him at the airport . shirley : oh ! what about me ? sally : i could never forget you , grams . shirley : oh , thank you , honey . you go have a good time . we 'll be cheering you on , and -- [ gasps ] we will be watching the live feed of the fashion challenge . sally : okay , it is 9 hours later , so whenever it 's daytime in monte carlo it 's nighttime here . shirley : we 'll record it !

[ scoffs ] do you have any idea how hard it is for me to keep from taking that video to the cops ? and do you know why it 's hard ? because i know exactly what it would do to your mother . jj : you are evil . theresa : me ? she 's the one who 's gone out of her way to ruin my life ! you know , everyone thinks that she is so generous , so gracious . [ scoffs ] yeah , right . you know , she grinds people like me up into a fine powder , and she does it with that simpy smile on her face . jj : all right , you have had it in r her the minute you knew you had to work for her . theresa : [ laughs ] you used to know what she was really like , but then you got scared . me , i do n't scare that easy . daniel : i was n't really commenting on your personal life , i was just making conversation . i did n't know that was against the rules , but now i do . nurse : here you go . jennifer : oh . thank you very much and , um , i will send out an email when it 's all been okayed . abe : well , i got to tell you , i 'm so glad you 're here now . liam : thank you . abe : hey , hey , daniel . glad i ran into you . this is someone i 'd like you to meet . liam frazer , dr. daniel jonas . daniel : ah . liam : pleasure to meet you , dr. jonas . daniel : likewise , yep . abe : liam just moved to salem . he 's a rep for a big drug company , and a genius at fundraising . daniel : wow . well , you know , i 'm not really involved with fundraising , but -- liam : you must be very busy . everyone knows what a talented surgeon you are . daniel : uh , thank you , yeah . liam : let 's do lunch sometime . daniel : sure . liam : good to see you , abe . abe : all right , take care . you know , he acts like it 's no big deal , but he 's got closets full of community service awards . daniel : mm , well , good for him , that 's -- abe : yeah , i do wonder if his marriage ended because of his devotion to service . but i am sure an attractive , funny guy like liam will be back in circulation soon . daniel : okay , you know what ? i ge -- i get it . i get it , he 's freakin ' superman . got it . hope : bo 's out of town on a project , one that i am unable to talk about to anyone . justin : so your husband is out of town for months , and you ca n't even tell anybody why ? hope : nope . justin : wow . hope : yeah , `` wow . `` that 's exactly how i feel . you know , ciara told me that she , um -- she made a wish that her dad would be here for christmas , at least for a little while . i mean , my god , he 's been gone for so long . and now i get the pleasure of telling her that that wish is n't going to come true . it 's so unfair . kate : i just do n't think you were particularly subtle , that 's all , okay ? sami : oh , my god ! kate : you practically pushed sonny out to see justin . sami : okay , what was i supposed to do , let him stay there and blab everything to will and ej about us and nick -- kate : shh , stop ! you 're worse than gabi . sami : [ gasps ] all right , you just cool it , all right ?

sami : what ? of course not ! kate : we are trying to stop you from making an enormous mistake . sami : you saw will 's face , how happy he was talking about his baby 's first christmas . if you do this , you are gon na take that happiness and smash it into a million pieces ! sonny : i know that , but nick is dead ! that is the bottom line here . so it does n't matter what we thought of him , he is a person , and he has a family . and will is part of that family , so his family has the right to know that nick is gone . kate : yes , absolutely . you 're right . sami : what ? kate : but they need to find out about it naturally . now -- sonny : what the hell does that even mean , kate ? kate : they 're going to stop hearing from nick . they 're going to make inquiries , and eventually , i 'm sure that body is going to be found . and it 's going to look like he slipped , he fell into the river , he hit his head , and he drowned . sonny : that 's not how he died , and you know it . kate : oh . sonny : and his family deserves to know it , too . sami : [ sighs ] 3q septic system breakdowns affect over 1 million homes a year , little wary of pharmaceutical reps . i always wonder if their agenda is profits and not really the patient . abe : well , no , i - i hear you . you know , i got to know liam on the autism fund- raiser , and he did n't just raise money . he cares about kids on the spectrum . i can tell . daniel : uh , you know , i will take your word for that . but , i 'm sorry , i really -- i , uh , i have to run . thank you . theresa : and in case you think there 's something else you can do to mess with me , i 'd give up on that idea , 'cause you 'll go down , your mom will be a wreck , and our good friend the doctor wo n't be in such great shape either . jj : what are you going to do to daniel ? theresa : [ chuckles ] he saved my life , and he 's the last person i want to get in trouble , but he has been covering for you this whole time and , well , i 've watched enough lawyer shows to know that that makes him an accessory after the fact . so , you 'll keep your mouth shut if you know what 's good for you , and your mom , and dr. dan . oh , and hey , jj -- merry christmas ! justin : i know what it 's like to worry about your kid , so if there 's anything adrienne and i can do to help you through the holidays , all you have to do is ask . hope : thank you . thank you . you 're such a good guy . justin : merry christmas . hope : mm , merry christmas to you . justin : merry christmas , kids ! both : bye . justin : bye - bye . theo : merry christmas . sami : [ sighs ] sonny , i -- [ clears throat ] i love you , okay ? i mean , you 're practically my son - in - law , right ? but come on , you act like you have this lock on what is right and what is wrong . you were the one hiding in a closet and eavesdropping on a private conversation . sonny : are you comparing that to murder ? sami : oh , my god , what -- ! kate : oh , no one is making any comparisons here , okay ? no , i think what sami is trying to say , in her very ham - handed way , is that it seems like you feel that having this information is somehow a burden for you to deal with . but the truth is , you 're the one who put yourself in the position to hear this information without our knowledge . sami : look , you are clearly a moral person , and i ... sonny : [ sighs , clears throat ] sami : respect that . i admire that in you . i really do . i just -- [ sighs ] -- i get the feeling you 're acting like we snuck up on nick and shot him in the back ! kate : and you know , that is absolutely not true . sami : right . kate : i was there . it was ugly . he got ugly . he tried to rape gabi . sonny : you 're doing it again . you 're trying to make a case for justifiable homicide ! sami : oh , my god , i -- kate : okay , okay , okay . wait , wait , listen . sami : [ sighs ] kate : now , i know this is new to you . i know maybe you feel like you have to tell someone about it . but do you really have to tell them a few days before christmas ? i mean , telling them now , is that going to bring nick back ? it 's not , is it ? ej : the moment that i walked in here , i could see how upset you were . and why would n't you be , hmm ? gabi : so you know ? ej : [ sighs ] samantha and kate , working together ? it 's quite a force to be reckoned with . gabi : you saw that ? ej : it 's hard to miss . they 'll walk all over a girl like you . gabi : tell me about it . ej : [ clears throat ] you know , um ... [ sighs ] if -- if you want to talk to me about it , i - i would be happy to make your case to samantha . gabi : sami and kate , you know , they can -- they can handle something like this , but i just -- i do n't know how much longer i can keep pretending . i got the tree , open the door ! ahh ! we 'll firm up the time . jennifer : great , thank you . abe : take care . liam : thanks . abe : so ... jennifer : hey . abe : how do you know liam ? jennifer : oh , adrienne introduced us and , um , we 're gon na go to dinner together . abe : oh , that 's interesting . jennifer : it is ? abe : we -- well , liam 's a friend and , uh , i think you would have a lot in common . jennifer : well , it 's -- it 's just very casual at this point , but i 'm looking forward to it , yeah . abe : good , good . you take care , all right ? jennifer : yes , you too , abe . anne : i have gossip . theresa : [ chuckles ] anne : i just saw jennifer with daniel jonas , and i 'm telling you , i thought it was gon na come to a fistfight . it was glorious !

[ sighs ] sorry . um , sami and kate , they do n't want me to leave town with arianna , obviously , and they 're both trying to get me to model for their companies . ej : oh , i see . gabi : and , you know , they think that they 're -- they 're being helpful , but honestly , it just feels like they 're running my life . ej : right . well , that would explain why they 're spending so much time together , would n't it ? gabi : exactly . you know , i -- it actually feels really good to talk to somebody about this . ej : mm - hmm . gabriella . gabi : hmm ? ej : when i told you that i knew everything that was going on , i was n't talking about a modeling contract . gabi : i do n't know what you mean . ej : i think you do . will : all right , lights out . figure out what you 're gon na get me ? kate : okay . obviously sami and i can not stop you from doing whatever it is you 're gon na do , but we can ask you to think about the timing . sami : that 's reasonable , do n't you think ? sonny : are you worried about ruining christmas , or just buying yourself some time ? kate : oh , sonny . sonny : i just saw my dad , so i 'm gon na go . kate : okay , wait a minute . he 's expecting you to tell him something . what are you gon na say ? sami : [ clears throat ] kate : [ sighs ] sami : he 's not gon na say anything , i can tell . kate : oh , really ? really ? your celebrated powers of observation telling you that ? sami : no , i think what you said really worked . kate : [ sighs ] he asked me if i was buying time , which i totally was . sami : right , but either way , you did buy the time , so now we can figure out how to shut him up for good . kate : oh , please do n't say it that way .

[ sighs ] gabi : you know , arianna is -- is the best thing that 's ever happened to me . and you have been just awesome . and -- you and -- and sonny , both . i , uh -- [ scoffs ] -- and i probably did n't even deserve any of it . will : oh , come on . i mean , are you talking about your relationship with nick ? gabi : no ! will : because that 's ... gabi : mm - mm . will : in the past now . that 's done . gabi : i know . i know that , i know . i 'm just -- i 'm grateful to you , for everything . and if i lost this , you know , what we have , i do n't think i could stand it . will : [ chuckling ] oh . sami : [ clears throat ] uh , so , you know what i was thinking ? i heard that the really pretty thing that you found was an earring . is n't that weird ? that i had an earring that i lost , and you found an earring right at the same time ? if you let me look at the earring , ciara , i could see if maybe it 's the one that i lost . ciara : but it is n't . sami : [ scoffs ] um , i think i should look at it . ciara : no ! sami : you know , i think it 's in that backpack . ciara : no ! sami : yeah , it is , and you 'd better let me see it . okay , ciara , if it 's the one that i lost , i will buy you ten pairs of earrings for christmas to replace it . ciara : but i like this one ! sami : so you do have it . it is not nice to hold out on cousin sami . just give me the backpack , okay ? ciara : no , that 's mine ! sami : no ! what 's inside of it is mine , and you know it , so let go , ciara ! ciara : give it back ! sami : you let go of this backpack ! hope : ciara ! both : give it to me ! hope : stop -- samantha ! what are you doing ? ej : sonny ! sonny : [ sighs ] ej : where are you off to ? sonny : just going home . ej : that 's funny , you seemed in such a hurry to leave there earlier . sonny : yeah , do n't take that personally . ej : it 's okay , i wo n't . sonny , i know . sonny : what are you talking about ? ej : you do n't need to pretend . gabi told me everything .
sonny told justin that he would tell him everything , but sami , kate , and gabi tried to talk him out of it . daniel saw jennifer talking to liam . theresa was n't scared of jj 's recording . will and ej showed up so sonny decided to wait to talk to justin . sami and kate tried to use code to convince sonny not to say anything to justin about what they did . ej seemed suspicious of sami and kate 's actions . theo and ciara talked about the earring he gave her . ciara was happy that no one noticed it , but she took it off and put it in her backpack anyway . hope had a disturbing call from bo . anne watched daniel and jennifer talking about her conversation with liam . theresa put jj in his place about his recording . sami reminded sonny that he had to meet justin to keep him from talking to will . ej asked gabi what was going on with her , sami , and kate . jj gave up and agreed to do what theresa wanted . hope talked to justin about her conversation with bo . hope was upset that bo would n't be home for christmas . ej tried to trick gabi into telling him what she , sami , and kate were hiding . sami and kate found sonny and tried to stop him from talking to justin .

[ scoffs ] do you have any idea how hard it is for me to keep from taking that video to the cops ? and do you know why it 's hard ? because i know exactly what it would do to your mother . jj : you are evil . theresa : me ? she 's the one who 's gone out of her way to ruin my life ! you know , everyone thinks that she is so generous , so gracious . [ scoffs ] yeah , right . you know , she grinds people like me up into a fine powder , and she does it with that simpy smile on her face . jj : all right , you have had it in r her the minute you knew you had to work for her . theresa : [ laughs ] you used to know what she was really like , but then you got scared . me , i do n't scare that easy . daniel : i was n't really commenting on your personal life , i was just making conversation . i did n't know that was against the rules , but now i do . nurse : here you go . jennifer : oh . thank you very much and , um , i will send out an email when it 's all been okayed . abe : well , i got to tell you , i 'm so glad you 're here now . liam : thank you . abe : hey , hey , daniel . glad i ran into you . this is someone i 'd like you to meet . liam frazer , dr. daniel jonas . daniel : ah . liam : pleasure to meet you , dr. jonas . daniel : likewise , yep . abe : liam just moved to salem . he 's a rep for a big drug company , and a genius at fundraising . daniel : wow . well , you know , i 'm not really involved with fundraising , but -- liam : you must be very busy . everyone knows what a talented surgeon you are . daniel : uh , thank you , yeah . liam : let 's do lunch sometime . daniel : sure . liam : good to see you , abe . abe : all right , take care . you know , he acts like it 's no big deal , but he 's got closets full of community service awards . daniel : mm , well , good for him , that 's -- abe : yeah , i do wonder if his marriage ended because of his devotion to service . but i am sure an attractive , funny guy like liam will be back in circulation soon . daniel : okay , you know what ? i ge -- i get it . i get it , he 's freakin ' superman . got it . hope : bo 's out of town on a project , one that i am unable to talk about to anyone . justin : so your husband is out of town for months , and you ca n't even tell anybody why ? hope : nope . justin : wow . hope : yeah , `` wow . `` that 's exactly how i feel . you know , ciara told me that she , um -- she made a wish that her dad would be here for christmas , at least for a little while . i mean , my god , he 's been gone for so long . and now i get the pleasure of telling her that that wish is n't going to come true . it 's so unfair . kate : i just do n't think you were particularly subtle , that 's all , okay ? sami : oh , my god ! kate : you practically pushed sonny out to see justin . sami : okay , what was i supposed to do , let him stay there and blab everything to will and ej about us and nick -- kate : shh , stop ! you 're worse than gabi . sami : [ gasps ] all right , you just cool it , all right ?

sami : what ? of course not ! kate : we are trying to stop you from making an enormous mistake . sami : you saw will 's face , how happy he was talking about his baby 's first christmas . if you do this , you are gon na take that happiness and smash it into a million pieces ! sonny : i know that , but nick is dead ! that is the bottom line here . so it does n't matter what we thought of him , he is a person , and he has a family . and will is part of that family , so his family has the right to know that nick is gone . kate : yes , absolutely . you 're right . sami : what ? kate : but they need to find out about it naturally . now -- sonny : what the hell does that even mean , kate ? kate : they 're going to stop hearing from nick . they 're going to make inquiries , and eventually , i 'm sure that body is going to be found . and it 's going to look like he slipped , he fell into the river , he hit his head , and he drowned . sonny : that 's not how he died , and you know it . kate : oh . sonny : and his family deserves to know it , too . sami : [ sighs ] 3q septic system breakdowns affect over 1 million homes a year , little wary of pharmaceutical reps . i always wonder if their agenda is profits and not really the patient . abe : well , no , i - i hear you . you know , i got to know liam on the autism fund- raiser , and he did n't just raise money . he cares about kids on the spectrum . i can tell . daniel : uh , you know , i will take your word for that . but , i 'm sorry , i really -- i , uh , i have to run . thank you . theresa : and in case you think there 's something else you can do to mess with me , i 'd give up on that idea , 'cause you 'll go down , your mom will be a wreck , and our good friend the doctor wo n't be in such great shape either . jj : what are you going to do to daniel ? theresa : [ chuckles ] he saved my life , and he 's the last person i want to get in trouble , but he has been covering for you this whole time and , well , i 've watched enough lawyer shows to know that that makes him an accessory after the fact . so , you 'll keep your mouth shut if you know what 's good for you , and your mom , and dr. dan . oh , and hey , jj -- merry christmas ! justin : i know what it 's like to worry about your kid , so if there 's anything adrienne and i can do to help you through the holidays , all you have to do is ask . hope : thank you . thank you . you 're such a good guy . justin : merry christmas . hope : mm , merry christmas to you . justin : merry christmas , kids ! both : bye . justin : bye - bye . theo : merry christmas . sami : [ sighs ] sonny , i -- [ clears throat ] i love you , okay ? i mean , you 're practically my son - in - law , right ? but come on , you act like you have this lock on what is right and what is wrong . you were the one hiding in a closet and eavesdropping on a private conversation . sonny : are you comparing that to murder ? sami : oh , my god , what -- ! kate : oh , no one is making any comparisons here , okay ? no , i think what sami is trying to say , in her very ham - handed way , is that it seems like you feel that having this information is somehow a burden for you to deal with . but the truth is , you 're the one who put yourself in the position to hear this information without our knowledge . sami : look , you are clearly a moral person , and i ... sonny : [ sighs , clears throat ] sami : respect that . i admire that in you . i really do . i just -- [ sighs ] -- i get the feeling you 're acting like we snuck up on nick and shot him in the back ! kate : and you know , that is absolutely not true . sami : right . kate : i was there . it was ugly . he got ugly . he tried to rape gabi . sonny : you 're doing it again . you 're trying to make a case for justifiable homicide ! sami : oh , my god , i -- kate : okay , okay , okay . wait , wait , listen . sami : [ sighs ] kate : now , i know this is new to you . i know maybe you feel like you have to tell someone about it . but do you really have to tell them a few days before christmas ? i mean , telling them now , is that going to bring nick back ? it 's not , is it ? ej : the moment that i walked in here , i could see how upset you were . and why would n't you be , hmm ? gabi : so you know ? ej : [ sighs ] samantha and kate , working together ? it 's quite a force to be reckoned with . gabi : you saw that ? ej : it 's hard to miss . they 'll walk all over a girl like you . gabi : tell me about it . ej : [ clears throat ] you know , um ... [ sighs ] if -- if you want to talk to me about it , i - i would be happy to make your case to samantha . gabi : sami and kate , you know , they can -- they can handle something like this , but i just -- i do n't know how much longer i can keep pretending . i got the tree , open the door ! ahh ! we 'll firm up the time . jennifer : great , thank you . abe : take care . liam : thanks . abe : so ... jennifer : hey . abe : how do you know liam ? jennifer : oh , adrienne introduced us and , um , we 're gon na go to dinner together . abe : oh , that 's interesting . jennifer : it is ? abe : we -- well , liam 's a friend and , uh , i think you would have a lot in common . jennifer : well , it 's -- it 's just very casual at this point , but i 'm looking forward to it , yeah . abe : good , good . you take care , all right ? jennifer : yes , you too , abe . anne : i have gossip . theresa : [ chuckles ] anne : i just saw jennifer with daniel jonas , and i 'm telling you , i thought it was gon na come to a fistfight . it was glorious !

[ scene_break ] emily : did you know about this ? did ric promise you that zander would n't live long enough to claim his child ? elizabeth : oh , emily , you know that 's not true . i 'm the one who came looking for you . i found zander holding you hostage in the cottage and i called the police . emily : right . remind me to thank you one day . elizabeth : i probably saved your life . at the very least , i kept zander from kidnapping you again . emily : zander was n't going to hurt me , elizabeth . you should have known that . your husband certainly did . zander did n't die tonight because he was a dangerous fugitive . he died because he 's the father of your baby and that made him an inconvenience -- ric : ok , all right -- emily : to ric . ric : all right , emily , that 's enough . now , i realize that you felt very deeply for zander at one point in your life , so you 're inclined to see him in the best possible light . but the fact remains that he killed an innocent man , and he set fire to the port charles hotel in order to cover it up -- a fire that , incidentally , killed three other people -- one of which , being zander 's father -- and devastated your family . now , i 'm not even going to include nikolas into this equation . i mean , he did almost die in that fire , too , right ? now , you tell me . if that had happened , would you still be yelling at all of us and defending zander ? emily , zander made a choice that led up to what happened here today , including that choice to reach behind him , as if he were going for a gun , and drawing police fire . i realize that is a very painful thing for you to think about but it is the truth , and you have to accept it . zander died because he wanted to . [ scene_break ] sam : you really do n't like me . do n't bother trying to deny it because it 's almost palpable . i just have a question for you -- why did you save me from the bomber ? jason : it 's my job . sam : painfully honest , are n't we ? jason : it 's just how i am . sam : all right , go ahead . i can take it . jason : there 's nothing to take . i do n't dislike you . i do n't even know you . i 'm not mad at you for being with sonny . sonny makes his own choices without any input from me . sam : yeah , but you 're still counting down the hours until he dumps me and goes back to carly . jason : i think they should be together . [ sam sighs ] sam : jason , what if that does n't happen ? what if sonny realizes he 's happier with me ? jason : well , then he 'll be with you . sam : but you do n't think that 's going to happen ? jason : look , you know what ? i do n't know what 's going to happen with carly and sonny . i just know that they still love each other . [ scene_break ] sonny : the agreement does n't cover child support , but , you know , i 'll have justus write something up , if that 's what you 'd like . carly : no , that wo n't be necessary , sonny . i -- sonny : i just want you to know that , you know , i 'll give my -- you know , michael and morgan whatever they need , you know . and i 'll send a check to you in advance every month . or if you want to -- carly : no . sonny : send me the bills , or whatever , i -- carly : oh , i -- i do n't know -- i -- you want me to write up a budget and then i could -- i 'll call you with it , you know ? sonny : yeah , can you call meyer ? because he 's the accountant . i need to justify his salary somehow . carly : meyer 's a hard worker . sonny : yeah . carly : he 's just not benny . sonny , just wait -- wait one second . justus -- he read that through , and you 're ok with everything that it says in there ? sonny : yeah . carly : ok , because i just do n't want to be dragged back into court because something 's worded wrong , you know ? sonny : no , i 'm satisfied , but if you have any questions , you -- or whatever you need , just call , you know , justus if you need any clarifications or anything . carly : yeah , ok . great . sonny : all right . carly : um , sonny , just -- thanks for bringing the papers over , and thanks for doing the right thing . sonny : well , it 's settled . that 's what counts . [ door closes ] lorenzo : well , i ca n't see , but i 'd bet everything that sonny upset you . carly : no , i thought the same thing that you did when i saw sonny when i opened the door . i thought that he had come here and wanted to have joint custody , after all . lorenzo : would you have agreed ? carly : yeah , i think i would have , because i -- i do want sonny to be in michael and morgan 's lives as much as he can . but i really still do think they are safer with me . lorenzo : so you got what you wanted . carly : yeah . lorenzo : yeah , but it hurts more than you thought . carly : lorenzo , i do n't -- i do n't -- i do n't know what you mean . lorenzo : i think you do n't want me to know that sonny can still get to you . clearly , he can . carly : lorenzo , sonny gave up our boys . and i even know it 's for the best , it just -- it does n't make the situation any easier . [ scene_break ] sonny : what are you doing ? that 's michael 's favorite . jason : yeah , i -- sonny : he probably left it here . jason : he did something to it . he asked me to fix it and bring it back . sonny : not tonight . jason : why ? sonny : courtney 's boyfriend is visiting . courtney brought over the custody papers , gave me the song and dance about how much carly loves me and she was going to break up with alcazar until he got blinded . sound like carly to you ? but i let myself get sucked in , right ? so i went over there with the papers unsigned , hoping maybe -- i do n't know -- whatever . it do n't matter . i look through a window , right ? she 's making out with that bastard . i want this to be over , you know ? i do n't want to feel for her anymore .

[ scene_break ] ric : put emily into interrogation one . emily , i 'm going to need a statement from you about everything that transpired between you and zander at the cottage . emily : fine . ric : sweetheart , i 'm going to need a statement from you , as well . elizabeth : yeah , i know . ric : you know , i 'm sure this is probably a ridiculous question considering everything that 's happened , but is something wrong ? elizabeth : i was so sure i was doing the right thing , you know ? i mean , notifying the authorities about zander holding em . maybe -- maybe i was terribly mistaken . lucky : here you go . you 're not in trouble or anything . we just need to record the details as soon as possible so we can close the file . emily : `` file . `` whew . i 'm grateful , lucky . at least you did n't fire at zander . lucky : em , you might not want to hear this , but i think ric was right this time . zander wanted to die . maybe all you can do is bless him and just let him go . hey , can i get you some water ? emily : yeah .

[ scene_break ] ric : can you remember anything else ? emily : zander told me that he 'd done something to nikolas ; that he 'd hurt him somehow . and by the time zander admitted that he was lying , the police were already there . ric : did zander ever mention a man named wally ? emily : no . ric : did he admit to killing the utility man in the basement of the hotel ? emily : no , and even if he did , i 'm sure it was an accident . zander never wanted to hurt anyone . all he wanted was for me to run away to canada with him . he wanted to cross the border at kirbyville . there 's a footbridge there . we almost made it over once . things would be a whole lot different now if we had .

the police shoot zander , who pretends he 's reaching for his gun . emily gets upset and accuses ric and elizabeth of wanting him dead . ric reminds her that zander was responsible for the fire , which injured , killed , and endangered people , including nikolas . she gives ric her statement . nikolas is in his car wreck ; he wakes up and staggers away , then collapses at a woman 's door . the woman has recently lost her husband in the war . she drags nikolas in , intending to go for help . when he wakes up , not remembering who he is , she says that he 's her husband . nikolas ' car is found and lucky is called . the paramedics tell lucky that nikolas may have fallen into the river . emily finds out and so lucky has to tell her that nikolas may have drowned . elizabeth feels both relieved and upset about zander 's death . she ask ric if he wanted him dead .

[ scene_break ] emily : did you know about this ? did ric promise you that zander would n't live long enough to claim his child ? elizabeth : oh , emily , you know that 's not true . i 'm the one who came looking for you . i found zander holding you hostage in the cottage and i called the police . emily : right . remind me to thank you one day . elizabeth : i probably saved your life . at the very least , i kept zander from kidnapping you again . emily : zander was n't going to hurt me , elizabeth . you should have known that . your husband certainly did . zander did n't die tonight because he was a dangerous fugitive . he died because he 's the father of your baby and that made him an inconvenience -- ric : ok , all right -- emily : to ric . ric : all right , emily , that 's enough . now , i realize that you felt very deeply for zander at one point in your life , so you 're inclined to see him in the best possible light . but the fact remains that he killed an innocent man , and he set fire to the port charles hotel in order to cover it up -- a fire that , incidentally , killed three other people -- one of which , being zander 's father -- and devastated your family . now , i 'm not even going to include nikolas into this equation . i mean , he did almost die in that fire , too , right ? now , you tell me . if that had happened , would you still be yelling at all of us and defending zander ? emily , zander made a choice that led up to what happened here today , including that choice to reach behind him , as if he were going for a gun , and drawing police fire . i realize that is a very painful thing for you to think about but it is the truth , and you have to accept it . zander died because he wanted to . [ scene_break ] sam : you really do n't like me . do n't bother trying to deny it because it 's almost palpable . i just have a question for you -- why did you save me from the bomber ? jason : it 's my job . sam : painfully honest , are n't we ? jason : it 's just how i am . sam : all right , go ahead . i can take it . jason : there 's nothing to take . i do n't dislike you . i do n't even know you . i 'm not mad at you for being with sonny . sonny makes his own choices without any input from me . sam : yeah , but you 're still counting down the hours until he dumps me and goes back to carly . jason : i think they should be together . [ sam sighs ] sam : jason , what if that does n't happen ? what if sonny realizes he 's happier with me ? jason : well , then he 'll be with you . sam : but you do n't think that 's going to happen ? jason : look , you know what ? i do n't know what 's going to happen with carly and sonny . i just know that they still love each other .

[ door closes ] lorenzo : well , i ca n't see , but i 'd bet everything that sonny upset you . carly : no , i thought the same thing that you did when i saw sonny when i opened the door . i thought that he had come here and wanted to have joint custody , after all . lorenzo : would you have agreed ? carly : yeah , i think i would have , because i -- i do want sonny to be in michael and morgan 's lives as much as he can . but i really still do think they are safer with me . lorenzo : so you got what you wanted . carly : yeah . lorenzo : yeah , but it hurts more than you thought . carly : lorenzo , i do n't -- i do n't -- i do n't know what you mean . lorenzo : i think you do n't want me to know that sonny can still get to you . clearly , he can . carly : lorenzo , sonny gave up our boys . and i even know it 's for the best , it just -- it does n't make the situation any easier . [ scene_break ] sonny : what are you doing ? that 's michael 's favorite . jason : yeah , i -- sonny : he probably left it here . jason : he did something to it . he asked me to fix it and bring it back . sonny : not tonight . jason : why ? sonny : courtney 's boyfriend is visiting . courtney brought over the custody papers , gave me the song and dance about how much carly loves me and she was going to break up with alcazar until he got blinded . sound like carly to you ? but i let myself get sucked in , right ? so i went over there with the papers unsigned , hoping maybe -- i do n't know -- whatever . it do n't matter . i look through a window , right ? she 's making out with that bastard . i want this to be over , you know ? i do n't want to feel for her anymore .

[ scene_break ] ric : put emily into interrogation one . emily , i 'm going to need a statement from you about everything that transpired between you and zander at the cottage . emily : fine . ric : sweetheart , i 'm going to need a statement from you , as well . elizabeth : yeah , i know . ric : you know , i 'm sure this is probably a ridiculous question considering everything that 's happened , but is something wrong ? elizabeth : i was so sure i was doing the right thing , you know ? i mean , notifying the authorities about zander holding em . maybe -- maybe i was terribly mistaken . lucky : here you go . you 're not in trouble or anything . we just need to record the details as soon as possible so we can close the file . emily : `` file . `` whew . i 'm grateful , lucky . at least you did n't fire at zander . lucky : em , you might not want to hear this , but i think ric was right this time . zander wanted to die . maybe all you can do is bless him and just let him go . hey , can i get you some water ? emily : yeah .

[ scene_break ] ric : can you remember anything else ? emily : zander told me that he 'd done something to nikolas ; that he 'd hurt him somehow . and by the time zander admitted that he was lying , the police were already there . ric : did zander ever mention a man named wally ? emily : no . ric : did he admit to killing the utility man in the basement of the hotel ? emily : no , and even if he did , i 'm sure it was an accident . zander never wanted to hurt anyone . all he wanted was for me to run away to canada with him . he wanted to cross the border at kirbyville . there 's a footbridge there . we almost made it over once . things would be a whole lot different now if we had .

[ knock on door ] markko : who 's there ? james : it 's james . langston : oh ... what are you doing here ? james : i need to see cole . [ scene_break ] cole : come on , ca n't you just tell me ? all i want to know is if anyone 's heard from eli clarke again ? officer : did n't the commissioner tell you to go home ? marty : oh . i 've been consulting with the profiler for the past hour . have you heard anything ? has there been any news ? cole : well , bo told me that eli contacted todd with a ransom demand . marty : did anyone speak to the girls ? cole : he let todd talk to dani , not starr . marty : well , maybe he just did n't want to risk having them trace the call . cole : or maybe starr and hope are in more danger than we thought . [ scene_break ] hannah : you 're awake . starr : yeah , i 'm awake , and i 'm going to pick up hope right now and walk out of that door , and if you try to stop me , i will take this bat and split your head open . hannah : i do n't think so .

[ scene_break ] eli : you did not just hear danielle . téa : no , i did . i know that i did . eli : you have been through so much . you 've been in the hospital for god knows how long and you miss your daughter . téa : yeah . eli : you 're just confused . téa : maybe . eli : yeah . téa : i did n't hear dani ? eli : uh - uh . i 'm sorry . téa : of course i did n't . why would she be here ? um ... eli , thank you for taking me out of the hospital , but , um , why did you bring me here ? eli : well , i could n't exactly take you home . ha ha ! téa : ha ha ! why not ? where are we ? what was it you said , i think it was last night , about todd shot you ? what 's going on here ? [ scene_break ] blair : todd , natalie is right . there 's no way téa could be resting in peace with her daughter missing . todd : i do n't care . just stay away from this . blair : natalie , i 'm sorry . natalie : no . it 's okay . blair : no , it 's not okay . he just lost his wife . he 's afraid he 's gon na lose his daughter . john : we 're not losing anyone . blair : i know . i know . john : you want to tell me what you were really doing ? [ scene_break ] eli : actually , téa , you 've missed quite a lot . téa : ha ha ! tell me about it . i have no idea what 's going on . all i know is i was in a hospital , a hospice in the caribbean , and i was getting ready to die , and then i woke up in cherryvale , and greg evans told me that i was n't going to die . eli : what else did greg evans tell you ? téa : nothing . he had to go away on an emergency , and he left me in the hospital . eli : so no one else has said another word to you at all ? téa : no , no . they would n't let me use the phone . why would n't they let me use the phone , eli ? why would n't they let me have contact with the outside world ? eli : greg evans did n't do what he was supposed to do . you should be dead . téa : i know . i had an inoperable brain tumor . i -- wait . i 'm sorry . you said greg did n't do what he was supposed to do . what was greg supposed to do ? eli : kill you . [ scene_break ] destiny : greg opened his eyes yesterday . he even said a few words . that means he 's getting better , right ? mr. evans : that 's what we 're hoping for , but the doctors say they still do n't know the extent of the damage . mrs. evans : destiny , do me a favor . could you run to the cafeteria and get your mama some coffee ? destiny : but i want to stay -- daddy , do you want anything ? mr. evans : no . you know , we should be getting ready to celebrate destiny 's birthday . instead , we 're sitting here by our son 's hospital bed wondering if he 'll live to see it . mrs. evans : it 's not fair , is it ? it seems like just yesterday we were worried about shaun . mr. evans : how could this have happened , phylicia ? i mean , how could our son have gotten mixed up with this murderer ? phylicia : shaun seems to think that this clarke person was holding something over him . mr. evans : wait a minute . what are you saying ? phylicia : all i know is that gregory would do anything to protect shaun and destiny . mr. evans : but how could clarke have found out what we did ? [ scene_break ] langston : cole 's not here . markko : why do you need to see him ? james : we got into it before , at the police station . i pulled starr into helping my brother hide dani , and now cole 's blaming me for what happened to her . markko : why should n't he ? james : i did n't come here to explain myself to anyone . i came here to tell cole -- to remind cole that we 're on the same side . langston : are you ? james : we both want everybody home safe and sound , right ? look , nate and i have been trying to figure out a way to find starr and hope and dani , but we could n't think of anything , so i thought i 'd have better luck with cole . [ scene_break ] marty : i think bo 's right . there 's nothing you can do here . i think you should go home . cole : and do what ? just wait ? is that what you 'd do if the person you loved and your child were missing ? marty : no . i 'd do exactly what you 're doing . i 'd stay here and make sure everybody 's working to bring my family home . cole : god ! marty : cole . cole : i do n't believe this ! i was so worried about eli coming after hannah that i was n't where i should have been -- at home protecting starr and hope , and now they 're who knows where with eli clarke . marty : listen to me , there was no way to predict what eli was going to do , but after what he 's done to hannah , it was only logical to assume that she was the one in danger . cole : i guess . marty : right . now , where is she now ? she 's not home by herself , is she ? cole : no , no . she went to see dr. levin . and langston and markko are at the house in case there 's any word there . marty : good . that was good of them to stay . cole : well , i think it 's more because they 're worried about me coming back in one piece . they 're not exactly crazy about me hanging out with hannah either . marty : no ? cole : but i 'm gon na tell you what i told them -- ever since hope and starr went missing , hannah 's been great . [ scene_break ] starr : where did you get that gun ? hannah : it 's my father 's . he has a collection in the basement . starr : here ? this is your parents ' house ? hannah : hope you like your room . i spent a lot of time here as a kid while my parents stayed downstairs completely ignoring me . starr : hannah , i 'm very sorry the way your parents treated you -- hannah : and you think it was just my childhood . ha ha ! i wish ! did cole tell you where my parents have been this whole time while i was getting arrested and almost died in st. ann 's ? traveling through europe . starr : hannah , i 'm very sorry . hannah : well , you should be because right now they 're not back . it 's only me , you , and your little girl . and i have no intention of being ignored anymore . [ scene_break ] langston : so what do you think you can do that the police are n't already doing ? james : i do n't know , but cole and i have , you know , a vested interest in everyone coming home safe . markko : i get cole 's vested interest , but what 's yours ? james : dani 's my little brother 's girlfriend . [ cell phone rings ] markko : hang on . james : i just want to help starr . i do n't know why that 's so hard to understand . markko : i got to go pick up a prescription for my dad . call me if there 's any news . langston : yeah , of course . james : i guess i should go , too . langston : no , wait . i know what you 're doing . you 're trying to look like the hero to starr . that way , when she gets home , maybe she 'll choose you over cole . [ scene_break ] cole : i swear , as soon as starr gets home , i 'm not leaving her side . i do n't care what it takes . i 'm gon na do everything i can to fix things between us . hey , have you heard anything yet ? marty : okay , okay , we should go . we need to go . cole : mom , go where ? the only place i want to be is where starr is . marty : i know , but you are not alone in this . cole : you 're right . i 'm sorry . i do n't mean to be taking this out on you . marty : no , it 's okay . cole : no , it 's not . look , i know you care about starr , and hope is your grandchild . i mean , i know you 're worried , too . marty : i am . i just wish there was something i could do to help you through this . cole : thanks . but i do n't think there 's anything anyone could do right now . marty : you know , maybe there is . come on . [ scene_break ] starr : what are you gon na do ? hannah : i thought i made that clear . i just want to be happy , and once you and hope are out of the way , i have a really good chance of making that happen . starr : you 're kidding me , right ? you really think that by killing me and my daughter , cole 's daughter , that he 's gon na go running into your arms and you 're gon na live happily ever after ? hannah : actually , yeah . starr : that 's not gon na happen , hannah ! hannah : well , no , not right away , of course . he 'll need time to grieve , but eventually ... and i 'll be there for him , a shoulder to cry on , a hand to hold when the pain gets to be too much , and eventually a warm bed so we can move on . starr : my parents are n't like yours , hannah . they notice when i 'm gone , and they 're going to wonder where there granddaughter is , too , especially cole 's mom and john mcbain , and they 're probably all wondering where i am right now ! in fact , they 're probably out there looking for us , especially cole ! hannah : oh , they are . but see , the thing is , starr , everybody thinks that you and dani are with eli . there 's quite the manhunt going on for him , but nobody 's really looking for me . starr : just give them time . hannah : oh . all i 've got is time . see , when you and your sister went missing , even the cop who was protecting me lost interest . i 'm used to being ignored . it 's how i get away with things . [ scene_break ] blair : you know , todd , you were right about before . todd : what ? blair : about eli not allowing you to talk to starr . i mean , of course , i mean , they 're fine . they 've got to be fine . he wants that $ 50 million ? well , he 's got to bring the girls home safely . todd : that 's right . [ scene_break ] natalie : you 're gon na have to trust me , okay ? i will explain everything later . john : okay . todd : ... and you still ca n't tell me where clarke 's calling from . i do n't care what time it is in switzerland . john : manning , put the phone down , all right ? you 're not calling anybody . todd : hey , listen , can i call you back ? yeah . john : let me tell you something . you 're not giving clarke anything , all right ? we 're gon na get a ringer for that . todd : no , no . i 'm not gon na let anyone else handle this . this son of a bitch has my kids . no , i 'll give him any damn thing he wants . i do n't care if i end up broke and homeless , i 'm getting my kids back . john : yeah ? you want them back alive ? hey , listen , i know this is hard , but you got to promise me you are not gon na do anything until the fbi instructs you on how to handle this . do you understand that ? blair : listen , i will make sure that he does n't , okay ? john : thank you . i 'll ... i 'll be in touch . john : you want to tell me what you 're doing now ? natalie : hopefully , collecting evidence to prove my theory that téa 's alive . [ scene_break ] téa : what do you mean , greg was supposed to kill me ? what -- you know what ? you know what ? it does n't matter . it really does n't matter . eli : does n't matter ? téa : no , because i 'm not dying , and i just really need to get to my daughter right now . [ scene_break ] [ dani struggling ] [ scene_break ] téa : i need to see todd and dani . i need to use a phone because they do n't know where i am . for all i know , they still think that i 'm dying , and i need to get to them . i need to get to todd and dani and tell them where i am . eli : sorry , téa . afraid you 're not going anywhere . téa : why not ? eli : because you 're a dead woman . [ scene_break ] marty : the officer at the door let us in . we came from the police station . cole : bo said that eli would n't confirm that starr was ... was there . blair : but he did n't confirm that she was n't either . marty : right . that 's what i keep telling him . cole : you know , we heard the feds were working out of your house , so we thought that we , you know , would see if there 's anything new . blair : we 're just here waiting . marty : would you mind if we waited with you ? [ scene_break ] starr : you do realize that once they find eli , they 'll realize that hope and i are n't with him . hannah : so ? they 'll just think eli got rid of you . starr : but cole never stopped looking for us because he loves us , hannah ! he loves me ! hannah : they why did he tell me he had feelings for me just like you have feelings for james ? there 's no point in denying it . there 's obviously a connection between you two . i saw it there the first day you guys were together in the park . you know , it kind of reminded me of the connection that i have with cole . starr : the connection that you have with cole is only one way , hannah , and the only reason why james and i had that connection at all is because you manipulated me and cole . hannah : ha ha ! starr : you lie to everyone . hannah : oh , come on . why do n't you just admit that you want james ? starr : i love cole . hannah : ha ha ! then why are you wearing this around your neck , huh ? how can you say that you love cole when you 're wearing this around your neck ? [ scene_break ] james : i just want starr back safe and sound . and yeah , i 'd like to be with her , and it hurts that i ca n't be , just like it hurts my brother bobby that he 'll never be with you . but what i really want is for starr to be happy -- home , safe , and happy . is she ? langston : is she what ? james : you said so yourself , you guys are best friends , you tell each other everything , so you would know . is starr happy ? [ scene_break ] natalie : so when greg evans said that téa was alive , i did n't know if he was delirious or if he actually meant it . and that on top of his visits to cherryvale . john : what did you and price find out ? natalie : virtually nothing . the patient was already gone and so was the nurse that was attending to her , and no one there knew anything about either one of them , but i know that it 's a far stretch to say that that patient was téa and that téa is still alive . john : last night , manning told me he got a call from an unknown number ... and that it was téa 's voice on the phone . he thought he was going crazy . natalie : maybe not . but i do n't understand . if there 's a remote possibility that téa 's still alive , why would greg evans go around telling everyone that she 's dead ? [ scene_break ] phylicia : i ca n't imagine how clarke could have found out . mr. evans : well , it would certainly explain how this man got gregory to do what he wanted . phylicia : well , if that 's the reason our son is laying in this bed , then it 's not a secret worth keeping . mr. evans : what are you saying , phylicia ? phylicia : i 'm saying that maybe it 's time we got everything out into the open . mr. evans : how can we ? just think of what it would do to shaun ? phylicia : i am thinking about that . but i 'm looking at what it 's done to gregory , and if he does n't make it -- mr. evans : well , do n't even talk like that . phylicia : richard , we have already buried too much under the carpet . now , we have to face the possibility that we may lose our son . does n't destiny deserve to know the truth ? destiny : the truth about what ? [ scene_break ] [ dani struggling ] [ scene_break ] téa : what are you talking about ? of course i 'm -- i 'm alive . eli : well , you know that , and i know that , but as far as the rest of the world is concerned , téa delgado - manning died over a month ago . téa : a month ? eli : see , that 's when greg was supposed to have killed you . téa : why do you keep saying that greg , my doctor , was supposed to kill me ? i do n't understand that . aah ! eli : because that was the plan all along . téa : the plan ? eli : from the very first day you collapsed in court . téa : when you insisted on taking me to the hospital ? eli : right . of course , greg insisted that you come back for more tests , just like i knew he would , and when he got those results , greg and i had a little chat . téa : what are you saying ? eli : greg evans gave you the diagnosis i told him to give you . téa : but i had a brain tumor . eli : téa , thought you were smarter than that . there was never any brain tumor in there ! you do n't get it ! you were never sick at all . [ scene_break ] hannah : you need to stop pretending that james does n't mean anything to you because it 's only hurting cole . starr : do n't tell me about cole , hannah . hannah : he told me . it 's not like he had to . it 's so obvious , starr . you could n't stay away from james if you tried . but you have n't really tried . james wants you in his life , and you want him in yours . sorry . did i hit a nerve ? starr : you do n't know what you 're talking about . hannah : oh , i think i do . why do you keep denying it , hmm ? why could n't you have just made life easier for the rest of us ? when you and james were on the run , you should have just kept running ! off into the sunset so that cole and i could be together . starr : you know what ? you 're right . i lied to cole , and i 've been lying to myself , but the truth is that i love james . [ scene_break ] langston : starr loves cole . james : that 's not what i asked . langston : look , james , nobody 's happy all the time , but starr and cole and hope , they 're a family , and cole is the only man that starr wants in her life . james : yeah , i know that , but do n't you think -- i mean , you do know what it 's like to care about two people at the same time , right ? speaking of , is there something going on between you and markko ? langston : no . no . we 're just -- whatever . it does n't matter . james : okay . langston : what ? james : i just do n't understand why you and bobby did n't hook up again after he was fired . i thought the problem was his being a professor and you being a student , and whoever sent those pictures to the dean sure did take care of that problem quickly . langston : so you have no idea who sent those pictures to the dean ? james : no . bobby said he did n't want to find out . langston : how did this conversation become about me and your brother ? james : i do n't know . i guess we both just do n't want to think about what starr 's going through right now . langston : yeah . it 's kind of scary . but she 'll get out of it . she always does . james : yeah . langston : and when she gets home , the last thing she 'll need is another complication . james : you do n't have to worry about me . i care about starr too much to do anything to upset her . i just hope cole feels the same way . [ scene_break ] cole : $ 50 million . i mean , no one has that cash . todd : i can raise it . marty : john already told you -- todd : i do n't care what john told me . i 'm gon na give this son of a bitch one more opportunity to find my girls , and then all bets are off . cole : for what it 's worth , i have some bonds i can cash , and i could sell my car . todd : ha . what , are you gon na break your piggy bank ? marty : hey , that 's enough , all right ? i think it 's best we do what the professionals say . [ indistinct recording playing ] cole : all right , come on . what you got ? gillespie : sorry , son . but i need you to be patient . todd : hey , wait a minute . just answer him . gillespie : i did . blair : well , did you ever think that you 'd hear that ? marty : they say crises have a tendency to bring people together . blair : we 've all been a victim . to eli . he made you lose your baby , threatened to kill me , now he 's threatening my daughter , téa 's daughter , our granddaughter . marty : i know . she 's our granddaughter , right ? so we 're in this together . [ scene_break ] officer : here 's that report you requested from that hospice in st. kitt 's . john : thanks . john : well , according to this , not only did evans have téa 's body transferred to the crematorium immediately after recording time of death , he also accompanied the body personally . natalie : so he had every opportunity to make a switch . john : looks that way . natalie : i just do n't get the eli connection . john : téa 's illness played into clarke 's hands . he got evans to take her away to a remote location , away from her family , and when she was weak enough ... natalie : they were able to get her to change her will so that ross would get custody of her daughter . john : right . it also explains why ross was named danielle 's guardian , and it also gave clarke a shot at danielle so he could ransom her back to manning . natalie : but even still , i mean , greg evans is one of the most well - respected neurosurgeons in the world . he does n't need the money , so how did eli manipulate him into doing all this to téa ? john : well , obviously eli had something on him . natalie : well , whatever it is , it must be something very powerful . [ scene_break ] phylicia : we were just talking about gregory . destiny : what about him ? richard : his condition is very serious . destiny : is he dying ? is that the truth you think i should know ? richard : he is n't out of the woods yet , but -- destiny : no . he ca n't die . phylicia : destiny . destiny : no . he ca n't die . when shaun was in the hospital , greg told me he was n't a superhero . but you know what ? he was always one to me ! for as long as i can remember , and superheroes do n't die ! phylicia : oh , baby , come here . come here . destiny : i need him , mama ! he ca n't leave me . he ca n't leave me ! [ scene_break ] [ dani struggling ] [ scene_break ] téa : this is impossible . i was sick . i -- i was getting sicker by the day . you saw me . you saw me . i was getting weaker and weaker until in the hospice i could n't even move . greg was giving me medications and treatments ! eli : all of which were making you sicker and sicker . but see , greg was supposed to finish the job . instead he chose to double cross me , kept you alive . well , i guess he thought if he saved you , it would make up for his -- oh , let 's just call them past sins . téa : what past sins ? eli : it does n't matter . all that 's important is those sins are what allowed me to convince greg to do this in the first place . téa : you blackmailed him . eli : i did what i had to do to get what i want . téa : what do you want , eli ? eli : financial independence . your death was supposed to secure that for me , but everything happens for a reason . things turned out just fine because you may be more valuable to me alive . [ scene_break ] starr : you 're right . i love james . i have loved him since the day that we met . hannah : what about cole ? starr : well , gosh , i 've been lying to him for so long , but i ca n't keep hurting him like this . i 'm just going to have to let him know that i 'm not in love with him anymore . hannah : you really mean that ? starr : you 're right , hannah . james and i belong together , and cole , well , he belongs with you . so i 'll just have to go back and tell them both . cole , i 'll just break up with him . you know , let him down easy . hannah : no , no , no , no ! how stupid do you think i am ? you 'll say anything to get out of here ! starr : no , i 'm telling the truth , hannah ! i love james , and i want to be with james ! hannah : well , i ca n't let you leave . starr : all i want is to be able to leave with my baby , hannah . hannah : it 's not gon na happen . starr : well , then what are you gon na do ? you wo n't kill us , hannah ! i know that you 've done other things , but you would never shoot me ! you would never shoot an innocent little girl ! right ? hannah : you 're right . and i do n't want to kill anyone , and i do n't have to . yet . because nobody 's ever gon na find you here . starr : w -- where are you going ? what are you doing ? you ca n't just let us be in here . we 'll starve , hannah . hannah : well , you brought food in your backpack , did n't you ? starr : no . not enough . not enough for me and a baby ! how long do you expect to keep us in here ? hannah : just long enough for cole to forget about you ... and fall in love with me . [ scene_break ] john : hey . you okay ? natalie : yeah . john : yeah ? okay , look , there 's a team on its way to cherryvale . they 're gon na do a full sweep of the room that evans ' patient was in . natalie : oh , that 's great . and i 'm gon na get these ashes over to the lab for analysis . john : hey , wait a second . i thought manning did n't let you get your hands on that urn . natalie : yeah , he thought he did n't either , but i swiped this when you were with your fbi buddies . john : what are you gon na test it for ? you ca n't get a dna sample from it . natalie : from cremated remains , no , but if there is just one bone fragment that was n't completely incinerated , we might have a chance . john : okay . now all we need is a sample of téa 's dna that we can run it against . natalie : well , yeah , um ... picked this up from her bathroom , so anything else ? john : what do you got in there ? natalie : ha ! john : that 's good . [ scene_break ] phylicia : destiny , no one said that greg is going to die . richard : but we ca n't pretend that this is n't serious . destiny : no . phylicia : no what , baby ? destiny : greg is going to wake up soon . that 's all there is to it . richard : that 's what we 're all praying for . destiny : you can pray if you want to , but i do n't need to . i mean , come on , it 's almost my birthday . greg would n't miss my birthday . phylicia : sweetheart , you are absolutely right . i think that greg knows somewhere inside that your big day is coming ... and that will give him the will to recover . richard : yeah . destiny : it better . because greg looked like he lost that will when téa died on his watch . [ scene_break ] [ téa panting ] téa : what are you gon na do with me ? eli : well , you being alive does change things somewhat . the only people who know you did n't die are you and me and greg , so if you 'll excuse me , i have to go deal with that right now . téa : wait . you 're not gon na keep me locked up in here , are you ? eli : you got a better idea ? téa : well , please , please , please , eli , i need to get out and tell dani and todd i 'm still alive . please ? eli : téa , i know you 're not at your best right now , but even you should realize why i ca n't let you do that . téa : that was dani , was n't it ? eli : i have to go . please move . téa : eli , eli , listen to me , listen to me , i do n't care what you 've done or why you 've done it . i just want to see my family . i just need to see them and let them know that i am all right , okay ? please , eli . eli : you know what ? you 're really starting to get on my nerves ! téa : no ! no ! eli : sit down !

tea awakens and still assumes that eli can be trusted . but he informs her for the first time that he wanted greg to kill her . she tries to get out and to find a way to call todd and dani . meanwhile dani is trapped in the other room of the abandoned warehouse where eli has taken both of them , gagged and bound to a chair . but she manages to cut the ropes and free herself in the end and gets to the other side of the door assuming that starr and hope are there . but she is shocked to discover her mother whom she believed all this while was dead . greg is still unconscious and doctors tells his family there 's no guarantee that he will make it . but destiny does not accept that . hannah has starr and baby hope trapped inside her parents ' home and makes it clear that she wants to keep starr away from cole long enough so that he will forget her and fall in love with hannah instead . and she tells starr she knows she is in love with james so starr needs to admit it and set cole free . natalie believes that tea is still alive although she can not prove it . but she manages to get dna evidence from todd 's home . yet the cops can not find where eli has taken dani and tea nor do they know where to find starr and baby hope . langston and markko are waiting to hear about starr and both admit they do not trust hannah . yet nobody figures out that she has taken starr and baby hope until james discovers that she has his bullet necklace that starr previously had .

[ scene_break ] cole : come on , ca n't you just tell me ? all i want to know is if anyone 's heard from eli clarke again ? officer : did n't the commissioner tell you to go home ? marty : oh . i 've been consulting with the profiler for the past hour . have you heard anything ? has there been any news ? cole : well , bo told me that eli contacted todd with a ransom demand . marty : did anyone speak to the girls ? cole : he let todd talk to dani , not starr . marty : well , maybe he just did n't want to risk having them trace the call . cole : or maybe starr and hope are in more danger than we thought . [ scene_break ] hannah : you 're awake . starr : yeah , i 'm awake , and i 'm going to pick up hope right now and walk out of that door , and if you try to stop me , i will take this bat and split your head open . hannah : i do n't think so .

[ scene_break ] destiny : greg opened his eyes yesterday . he even said a few words . that means he 's getting better , right ? mr. evans : that 's what we 're hoping for , but the doctors say they still do n't know the extent of the damage . mrs. evans : destiny , do me a favor . could you run to the cafeteria and get your mama some coffee ? destiny : but i want to stay -- daddy , do you want anything ? mr. evans : no . you know , we should be getting ready to celebrate destiny 's birthday . instead , we 're sitting here by our son 's hospital bed wondering if he 'll live to see it . mrs. evans : it 's not fair , is it ? it seems like just yesterday we were worried about shaun . mr. evans : how could this have happened , phylicia ? i mean , how could our son have gotten mixed up with this murderer ? phylicia : shaun seems to think that this clarke person was holding something over him . mr. evans : wait a minute . what are you saying ? phylicia : all i know is that gregory would do anything to protect shaun and destiny . mr. evans : but how could clarke have found out what we did ? [ scene_break ] langston : cole 's not here . markko : why do you need to see him ? james : we got into it before , at the police station . i pulled starr into helping my brother hide dani , and now cole 's blaming me for what happened to her . markko : why should n't he ? james : i did n't come here to explain myself to anyone . i came here to tell cole -- to remind cole that we 're on the same side . langston : are you ? james : we both want everybody home safe and sound , right ? look , nate and i have been trying to figure out a way to find starr and hope and dani , but we could n't think of anything , so i thought i 'd have better luck with cole . [ scene_break ] marty : i think bo 's right . there 's nothing you can do here . i think you should go home . cole : and do what ? just wait ? is that what you 'd do if the person you loved and your child were missing ? marty : no . i 'd do exactly what you 're doing . i 'd stay here and make sure everybody 's working to bring my family home . cole : god ! marty : cole . cole : i do n't believe this ! i was so worried about eli coming after hannah that i was n't where i should have been -- at home protecting starr and hope , and now they 're who knows where with eli clarke . marty : listen to me , there was no way to predict what eli was going to do , but after what he 's done to hannah , it was only logical to assume that she was the one in danger . cole : i guess . marty : right . now , where is she now ? she 's not home by herself , is she ? cole : no , no . she went to see dr. levin . and langston and markko are at the house in case there 's any word there . marty : good . that was good of them to stay . cole : well , i think it 's more because they 're worried about me coming back in one piece . they 're not exactly crazy about me hanging out with hannah either . marty : no ? cole : but i 'm gon na tell you what i told them -- ever since hope and starr went missing , hannah 's been great . [ scene_break ] starr : where did you get that gun ? hannah : it 's my father 's . he has a collection in the basement . starr : here ? this is your parents ' house ? hannah : hope you like your room . i spent a lot of time here as a kid while my parents stayed downstairs completely ignoring me . starr : hannah , i 'm very sorry the way your parents treated you -- hannah : and you think it was just my childhood . ha ha ! i wish ! did cole tell you where my parents have been this whole time while i was getting arrested and almost died in st. ann 's ? traveling through europe . starr : hannah , i 'm very sorry . hannah : well , you should be because right now they 're not back . it 's only me , you , and your little girl . and i have no intention of being ignored anymore . [ scene_break ] langston : so what do you think you can do that the police are n't already doing ? james : i do n't know , but cole and i have , you know , a vested interest in everyone coming home safe . markko : i get cole 's vested interest , but what 's yours ? james : dani 's my little brother 's girlfriend . [ cell phone rings ] markko : hang on . james : i just want to help starr . i do n't know why that 's so hard to understand . markko : i got to go pick up a prescription for my dad . call me if there 's any news . langston : yeah , of course . james : i guess i should go , too . langston : no , wait . i know what you 're doing . you 're trying to look like the hero to starr . that way , when she gets home , maybe she 'll choose you over cole . [ scene_break ] cole : i swear , as soon as starr gets home , i 'm not leaving her side . i do n't care what it takes . i 'm gon na do everything i can to fix things between us . hey , have you heard anything yet ? marty : okay , okay , we should go . we need to go . cole : mom , go where ? the only place i want to be is where starr is . marty : i know , but you are not alone in this . cole : you 're right . i 'm sorry . i do n't mean to be taking this out on you . marty : no , it 's okay . cole : no , it 's not . look , i know you care about starr , and hope is your grandchild . i mean , i know you 're worried , too . marty : i am . i just wish there was something i could do to help you through this . cole : thanks . but i do n't think there 's anything anyone could do right now . marty : you know , maybe there is . come on . [ scene_break ] starr : what are you gon na do ? hannah : i thought i made that clear . i just want to be happy , and once you and hope are out of the way , i have a really good chance of making that happen . starr : you 're kidding me , right ? you really think that by killing me and my daughter , cole 's daughter , that he 's gon na go running into your arms and you 're gon na live happily ever after ? hannah : actually , yeah . starr : that 's not gon na happen , hannah ! hannah : well , no , not right away , of course . he 'll need time to grieve , but eventually ... and i 'll be there for him , a shoulder to cry on , a hand to hold when the pain gets to be too much , and eventually a warm bed so we can move on . starr : my parents are n't like yours , hannah . they notice when i 'm gone , and they 're going to wonder where there granddaughter is , too , especially cole 's mom and john mcbain , and they 're probably all wondering where i am right now ! in fact , they 're probably out there looking for us , especially cole ! hannah : oh , they are . but see , the thing is , starr , everybody thinks that you and dani are with eli . there 's quite the manhunt going on for him , but nobody 's really looking for me . starr : just give them time . hannah : oh . all i 've got is time . see , when you and your sister went missing , even the cop who was protecting me lost interest . i 'm used to being ignored . it 's how i get away with things . [ scene_break ] blair : you know , todd , you were right about before . todd : what ? blair : about eli not allowing you to talk to starr . i mean , of course , i mean , they 're fine . they 've got to be fine . he wants that $ 50 million ? well , he 's got to bring the girls home safely . todd : that 's right .

[ scene_break ] téa : what do you mean , greg was supposed to kill me ? what -- you know what ? you know what ? it does n't matter . it really does n't matter . eli : does n't matter ? téa : no , because i 'm not dying , and i just really need to get to my daughter right now .

[ scene_break ] marty : the officer at the door let us in . we came from the police station . cole : bo said that eli would n't confirm that starr was ... was there . blair : but he did n't confirm that she was n't either . marty : right . that 's what i keep telling him . cole : you know , we heard the feds were working out of your house , so we thought that we , you know , would see if there 's anything new . blair : we 're just here waiting . marty : would you mind if we waited with you ? [ scene_break ] starr : you do realize that once they find eli , they 'll realize that hope and i are n't with him . hannah : so ? they 'll just think eli got rid of you . starr : but cole never stopped looking for us because he loves us , hannah ! he loves me ! hannah : they why did he tell me he had feelings for me just like you have feelings for james ? there 's no point in denying it . there 's obviously a connection between you two . i saw it there the first day you guys were together in the park . you know , it kind of reminded me of the connection that i have with cole . starr : the connection that you have with cole is only one way , hannah , and the only reason why james and i had that connection at all is because you manipulated me and cole . hannah : ha ha ! starr : you lie to everyone . hannah : oh , come on . why do n't you just admit that you want james ? starr : i love cole . hannah : ha ha ! then why are you wearing this around your neck , huh ? how can you say that you love cole when you 're wearing this around your neck ? [ scene_break ] james : i just want starr back safe and sound . and yeah , i 'd like to be with her , and it hurts that i ca n't be , just like it hurts my brother bobby that he 'll never be with you . but what i really want is for starr to be happy -- home , safe , and happy . is she ? langston : is she what ? james : you said so yourself , you guys are best friends , you tell each other everything , so you would know . is starr happy ? [ scene_break ] natalie : so when greg evans said that téa was alive , i did n't know if he was delirious or if he actually meant it . and that on top of his visits to cherryvale . john : what did you and price find out ? natalie : virtually nothing . the patient was already gone and so was the nurse that was attending to her , and no one there knew anything about either one of them , but i know that it 's a far stretch to say that that patient was téa and that téa is still alive . john : last night , manning told me he got a call from an unknown number ... and that it was téa 's voice on the phone . he thought he was going crazy . natalie : maybe not . but i do n't understand . if there 's a remote possibility that téa 's still alive , why would greg evans go around telling everyone that she 's dead ? [ scene_break ] phylicia : i ca n't imagine how clarke could have found out . mr. evans : well , it would certainly explain how this man got gregory to do what he wanted . phylicia : well , if that 's the reason our son is laying in this bed , then it 's not a secret worth keeping . mr. evans : what are you saying , phylicia ? phylicia : i 'm saying that maybe it 's time we got everything out into the open . mr. evans : how can we ? just think of what it would do to shaun ? phylicia : i am thinking about that . but i 'm looking at what it 's done to gregory , and if he does n't make it -- mr. evans : well , do n't even talk like that . phylicia : richard , we have already buried too much under the carpet . now , we have to face the possibility that we may lose our son . does n't destiny deserve to know the truth ? destiny : the truth about what ? [ scene_break ] [ dani struggling ] [ scene_break ] téa : what are you talking about ? of course i 'm -- i 'm alive . eli : well , you know that , and i know that , but as far as the rest of the world is concerned , téa delgado - manning died over a month ago . téa : a month ? eli : see , that 's when greg was supposed to have killed you . téa : why do you keep saying that greg , my doctor , was supposed to kill me ? i do n't understand that . aah ! eli : because that was the plan all along . téa : the plan ? eli : from the very first day you collapsed in court . téa : when you insisted on taking me to the hospital ? eli : right . of course , greg insisted that you come back for more tests , just like i knew he would , and when he got those results , greg and i had a little chat . téa : what are you saying ? eli : greg evans gave you the diagnosis i told him to give you . téa : but i had a brain tumor . eli : téa , thought you were smarter than that . there was never any brain tumor in there ! you do n't get it ! you were never sick at all . [ scene_break ] hannah : you need to stop pretending that james does n't mean anything to you because it 's only hurting cole . starr : do n't tell me about cole , hannah . hannah : he told me . it 's not like he had to . it 's so obvious , starr . you could n't stay away from james if you tried . but you have n't really tried . james wants you in his life , and you want him in yours . sorry . did i hit a nerve ? starr : you do n't know what you 're talking about . hannah : oh , i think i do . why do you keep denying it , hmm ? why could n't you have just made life easier for the rest of us ? when you and james were on the run , you should have just kept running ! off into the sunset so that cole and i could be together . starr : you know what ? you 're right . i lied to cole , and i 've been lying to myself , but the truth is that i love james . [ scene_break ] langston : starr loves cole . james : that 's not what i asked . langston : look , james , nobody 's happy all the time , but starr and cole and hope , they 're a family , and cole is the only man that starr wants in her life . james : yeah , i know that , but do n't you think -- i mean , you do know what it 's like to care about two people at the same time , right ? speaking of , is there something going on between you and markko ? langston : no . no . we 're just -- whatever . it does n't matter . james : okay . langston : what ? james : i just do n't understand why you and bobby did n't hook up again after he was fired . i thought the problem was his being a professor and you being a student , and whoever sent those pictures to the dean sure did take care of that problem quickly . langston : so you have no idea who sent those pictures to the dean ? james : no . bobby said he did n't want to find out . langston : how did this conversation become about me and your brother ? james : i do n't know . i guess we both just do n't want to think about what starr 's going through right now . langston : yeah . it 's kind of scary . but she 'll get out of it . she always does . james : yeah . langston : and when she gets home , the last thing she 'll need is another complication . james : you do n't have to worry about me . i care about starr too much to do anything to upset her . i just hope cole feels the same way . [ scene_break ] cole : $ 50 million . i mean , no one has that cash . todd : i can raise it . marty : john already told you -- todd : i do n't care what john told me . i 'm gon na give this son of a bitch one more opportunity to find my girls , and then all bets are off . cole : for what it 's worth , i have some bonds i can cash , and i could sell my car . todd : ha . what , are you gon na break your piggy bank ? marty : hey , that 's enough , all right ? i think it 's best we do what the professionals say . [ indistinct recording playing ] cole : all right , come on . what you got ? gillespie : sorry , son . but i need you to be patient . todd : hey , wait a minute . just answer him . gillespie : i did . blair : well , did you ever think that you 'd hear that ? marty : they say crises have a tendency to bring people together . blair : we 've all been a victim . to eli . he made you lose your baby , threatened to kill me , now he 's threatening my daughter , téa 's daughter , our granddaughter . marty : i know . she 's our granddaughter , right ? so we 're in this together . [ scene_break ] officer : here 's that report you requested from that hospice in st. kitt 's . john : thanks . john : well , according to this , not only did evans have téa 's body transferred to the crematorium immediately after recording time of death , he also accompanied the body personally . natalie : so he had every opportunity to make a switch . john : looks that way . natalie : i just do n't get the eli connection . john : téa 's illness played into clarke 's hands . he got evans to take her away to a remote location , away from her family , and when she was weak enough ... natalie : they were able to get her to change her will so that ross would get custody of her daughter . john : right . it also explains why ross was named danielle 's guardian , and it also gave clarke a shot at danielle so he could ransom her back to manning . natalie : but even still , i mean , greg evans is one of the most well - respected neurosurgeons in the world . he does n't need the money , so how did eli manipulate him into doing all this to téa ? john : well , obviously eli had something on him . natalie : well , whatever it is , it must be something very powerful . [ scene_break ] phylicia : we were just talking about gregory . destiny : what about him ? richard : his condition is very serious . destiny : is he dying ? is that the truth you think i should know ? richard : he is n't out of the woods yet , but -- destiny : no . he ca n't die . phylicia : destiny . destiny : no . he ca n't die . when shaun was in the hospital , greg told me he was n't a superhero . but you know what ? he was always one to me ! for as long as i can remember , and superheroes do n't die ! phylicia : oh , baby , come here . come here . destiny : i need him , mama ! he ca n't leave me . he ca n't leave me !

the words echo in hope 's head – she is a stain on the family name . brooke says hope does n't see herself that way and never will . she can not risk this being thrown in her face . hope overhears ridge remind brooke that hope was conceived when deacon was still married to her other daughter . that would crush her . the media will have a field day with it . brooke says it was the darkest part of her life . she is so ashamed and indeed felt that way during her pregnancy . hope ca n't hold back ; she walks in and tells her mother that she is ashamed too . sandy tells whip that she is waiting to hear from nick . he is at graham 's trying to get some dna . nick goes through the motions of getting graham on his side and to convince him that he is looking for a photographer for his new collection at jackie m. while graham is on the phone , nick retrieves a wad of chewing gum that graham threw away . nick calls sandy and says he got the dna and for her to meet him at the police lab . taylor asks steffy why katie has it in for her . steffy says hope is a good kid and has a lot of potential , but she has no experience and this will be a disaster . taylor agrees this will be the potential of a mental breakdown . this will be a decision that both katie and brooke will regret .

[ scene_break ] casey : hey , sheriff , could i ask you something ? sheriff : i 've already made my decision about the cabin , boys . that 's a cash- only deal . casey : no , this is something else . what do you know about this flyer right here ? they said they need laborers at hotchkiss mills . sheriff : yeah , i 've got a call about that this morning . they asked me send any strays down that way . casey : all right , then we 'll check it out . sheriff : might as well . will : how do we get there ? sheriff : you go out to the main road , make a right , and keep walking . casey : all right , cool . this could be what we need . will : yeah . sheriff : just keep out of trouble . i 'm watching you . will : all right , well , we 'll see you later . um , i think we should go back to the cabin first . because if we get hired , then we 're going to be gone all day . i do n't want gwen thinking anything 's wrong . [ scene_break ] gwen : will 's going to be back any minute -- adam : do n't even speak to me about will . he spent five minutes mourning me , and then hatched his big romantic scheme to lead you off into the sunset with all your troubles behind you . gwen : how do you know any of that ? adam : well , when you 're dead , it 's pretty easy to eavesdrop . and play mind games with cell phones and flowers -- gwen : it was you ! i did see you in front of my car that night . adam : the thing is , you could n't be too sure , could you ? guilt can really play tricks on the mind , ca n't it ? gwen : did you enjoy torturing me ? adam : oh , i 'm not done yet . i want to see you break . gwen : have n't you seen enough ? with that branch in my bed , and my ring back , you 're in my house when will was gone -- adam : yeah , you kept me busy . gwen : and all this time , i thought it was -- adam : who ? gwen : my mom . adam : iris does n't even know i 'm alive . but you played right into her hands . and she played the con right to the end . you know , your mom 's a pro . watching will sign over his trust fund ? that was priceless . gwen : what do you want ? adam : i want to see the look on will 's face when he walks in here and sees us together . i just do n't think that 's going to happen any time soon . [ scene_break ] casey : hey , if we 're going to get hired , we should go to that mill right now . will : i wish we had n't trashed our cell phones . i 'd like gwen to know where we are . casey : yeah , and then everyone else would know where we are , too . my mom is probably tracing right now . will : yeah , they 're not going to be far behind us . casey : look , we need to move , okay ? because we 're going to get out of the country , we need passports . to get passports , we need the money . will : look , i do n't like leaving maddie and gwen alone . casey : me neither , but i do n't think we have a choice . [ scene_break ] gwen : what did you do to will ? adam : let 's just say he wo n't be coming back to the honeymoon suite . gwen : no , he just found out about what happened to you . he was n't a part of it . adam : yeah , but he 's a part of it now , is n't he ? he 's putting miles in between you and that grave site you dug for me . gwen : okay . okay , i get it . you 've come -- you 've come for payback . so why do n't -- why do n't you just call the police ? okay , why do n't you just get it over with ? adam : no , i 'd rather keep this between us . how it belongs . at least for now . gwen : okay , then just let me -- please , let me just check on maddie . adam : no . no , no , no , the cold ground was good enough for me . i 'm sure it 's just fine for her . gwen : please , adam , please , you 're better than this . adam : no , your snotty little friend is the one who needs an attitude adjustment . she actually believed i could hurt you . gwen : i believed it , too . i mean , you just set up your brother to look like a thief -- you ca n't blame us if we did n't exactly feel secure around you ? adam : all i was trying to do is get a head start before you ratted me out to my mother and brothers . gwen : it was n't my job to bust you . adam : so , you were n't going to turn me in ? gwen : i was n't going to let will go to prison for something that he did n't do . but i was going to let you own up to it yourself . adam : you went postal on me ! gwen : you were all over me ! and when maddie saw you , she thought you were trying to hurt me . it was just a split - second response . she did n't hunt you down . adam : oh , you mean -- you mean , like i 'm doing ? gwen : i 'm not sure what you 're doing . you have n't told me . adam : now , i forgot how well you play innocent . is that why you thought you 'd get away with it ? leaving me out there to rot ? gwen : no . no , we did n't know that you were still alive . adam : do you have any idea how lame that sounds ? gwen : yes . and i 'd take it back . we both take it back . we know that what we did was horrible . adam that doesn � t begin to cover it , gwen . when you came home , and you washed off the mud and the blood , and you crawled into bed -- i came to . only i woke up in total blackness , with all that dirt pressing down on me . gwen : please stop -- adam : yeah . i could n't breathe . i could barely move . gwen : i 'm sorry -- adam : and i had to figure out how i got there . and you know , that 's when i wished that i had been killed . gwen : no , no , do n't say that ! no one wanted that -- adam : but instead - but instead of lying there , letting myself die , i crawled out . and when i finally got out , when i could see the moonlight , i sat there . i sat on my own grave thinking -- gwen : why did n't you go to the hospital ? adam : with so much to explain ? you know , the last thing i remembered was arguing with you . i thought , it could n't have been gwen . gwen would n't leave me out here to die -- then i remembered hearing a voice , it was maddie � s voice . and i thought , yeah , it had to be her . because gwen , you and me , we mean too much to each other . you must have gone for help and when you came back , then i turned myself in . gwen : so , you just waited ? adam : yes , gwen . i waited . a long , long time . then i saw something in the dirt . you know , if the moon had n't been so bright , i probably would n't have seen it . i picked it up , it was a ring . it was your wedding ring . and that 's when i remember hearing another voice . you were saying to maddie , use your hands . you were showing her how to bury me alive . gwen : if you would have given us a sign . if you would have shown -- adam : i could n't move or speak ! gwen : i 'm sorry -- adam : then i thought how much i believed in you . how much i loved you . how i wanted to share my life with you . think of that , gwen . imagine that . the person that you would do anything in this world for . and she 's burying you alive . as much as i loved you , i knew i could not let you get away with that . gwen : i did n't know . i did n't know you were still alive . adam : that 's hardly the point . gwen : but if we knew , adam , i mean , if knew that you were going through -- adam : what ? what , what , what ? what , you would 've called 911 ? yeah , yeah , you had your chance to do that , gwen , when you thought i was dead . you passed that up . gwen : i should have -- adam : yeah , you should have the minute maddie knocked me out . gwen : we were scared , okay ? maddie did n't think that the cops would believe it was an accident . adam : what , so you chose her over me ? gwen : no , no , no , it was n't like that . we were n't thinking . adam : well , you threw her murder weapon in with me . you threw in my cell phone . it seems to me like you were thinking real hard about how to cover up your tracks -- gwen : i know and i do n't blame you for wanting to get back to me -- i really do n't but you have to believe , in spite of what i did , that i never wanted you dead . adam : i know , you could 've stopped it at any time . gwen : i know but i did n't know that then . but now that i know you 're okay , we can fix this . please ? i hated the way that i was that night -- i hated everything about it . i never wanted to hurt you . adam : all i wanted to do was save you from living half a life with will . gwen : you do n't understand -- adam : no , i do , gwen . i do . i understand . first time i saw you , the first time i heard you sing -- i saw what you could be , what you could mean to the world . gwen : and i 'll never be able to thank you enough for that . you taught me so much about music . i 'll always remember those times . i miss those times . adam : hey , we can have them again . [ gwen runs out the door ] [ scene_break ] sheriff : you boys back already ? what happened at the mill ? casey : nothing . it was closed . sheriff : that 's strange . i 'm sure that call was about hotchkiss mill . maybe it 's for tomorrow . will : well , i suppose we can go back . sheriff : well , i have to leave right now . a report just came in on a stolen car . that does n't happen much around here . casey : hey , can we use your phone one more time ? sheriff : just make sure the door is closed behind you when you leave . and if anything 's missing , i know where to look . casey : yeah , all right , thanks . will : we did n't make a mistake . why is the mill closed ? casey : i do n't know . it 's weird . will : i think we should get out of here . we should get back . casey : hey , will ? sometimes it hits me so hard that adam � s dead , i ca n't believe it . will : yeah , i know . casey : sometimes , i feel like i could just call him up , you know . will : yeah , even if it was just to talk , it would be nice . casey : yeah , one time when i was six , i snuck into his car when he was going out with some friends . and he found me , i thought he was going to take me home , but -- will : what did he do ? casey : he took me to the movies and out to play pool with his friends . i guess i just thought , you know , one day -- it could be like that again . will : i know how you feel . casey : i hope my mom keeps believing that adam � s okay . and he just split for some tropical paradise to avoid jail . i do n't want her to find out that her son 's dead . or how he died . [ scene_break ] margo : thank you . thank you so much for your help . okay , so casey has not used his credit card in a couple of weeks . tom : that 's good news . margo : yes , it is . considering i forgot to cancel his card . i swear , i will stay more on top of this from now on . tom : well , you 're not used to policing casey . neither of us is . margo : yeah , i know . it used to be we could trust him when he told us things . so , if he 's not using his credit card , then he 's not gambling , right ? tom : to tell you the truth , i ca n't think this is about poker . i logged on his computer , checked his browser . he has n't visited any online sites . margo : well , that 's good news , is n't it , yes ? so , why has n't he called ? why has n't he called us ? [ knock on the door ] tom : i 'll get that . barbara : hi . tom : barbara , hi . barbara : i 'm sorry to stop by so early . i was just wondering if i could talk to maddie . margo : hi . good morning , barbara . barbara : good morning . um , is she here ? margo : why ? what 's the matter ? barbara : well , gwen and will have taken off and apparently they were not very truthful with me about where they 've gone . and i thought maybe maddie might know something . margo : oh , well , maddie has gone to visit her sister in dwight . barbara : is that the story she told you ? margo : well , she left a message . i mean , it 's not that tom and i were very anxious for her to go visit her sister , but if she did n't ask our advice . and since she had the week off from school -- barbara : well , i see i 'm not the only one out of the loop . margo : what do you mean ? all the kids have the week off for spring break . are we missing something ? barbara : i 'm not really sure , but you should check out maddie � s story . in fact , you want to talk to casey about that -- in fact , can i talk to casey -- margo : yeah , we 'll talk to him . barbara : okay . if anything comes to light , please call me . i ran into gwen 's mother and she seemed certain that gwen and will and maddie have taken off for someplace where no one can find them . margo : well , gwen 's mother is not the most reliable source . barbara : ordinarily , but i think she 's telling the truth . i just wonder what kind of trouble maddie � s gotten them into this time . [ scene_break ] casey : this should hold us . so , do you think that sheriff 's going to be back soon ? will : probably , but we ca n't wait . casey : we 're not walking out of here without paying for this . we 're in enough trouble . will : i know , i know , we 'll leave cash on the counter . casey : and what if someone else finds it ? wait , here . put it in here and then put the sheriff 's name on it . then , we should be covered . will : all right . done . we should get back . maddie and gwen are probably hungry . i do n't believe it . [ jade walks by outside the window ] casey : what ? [ scene_break ] gwen : maddie , please be all right . please , please , please be all right . what did he do to you ? oh , no , no , no , no , no , no . okay , come on , maddie . i have to get you out of here , okay ? adam : not part of the plan . gwen : no , we got to get her out of here . she 's bleeding . adam : yes , i know . gwen : please , let 's just take her inside . it 's warmer . adam : funny , i do n't remember the weather being an issue when i was out in the cold . gwen : i 'm sorry . adam : your apologies do n't mean that much to me right now , gwen . you know , if you and your little friend had showed one little ounce of compassion , i might return the favor . gwen : no , she just made a mistake , okay ? we both did . adam : maddie got exactly what she deserves -- now it 's your turn . gwen : no , no . no .

[ scene_break ] margo : well , are you sure ? no , no , i 'm sure -- i was -- i was just probably misinformed . all right . yes , thank you . thank you so much for your help . i will . tom : any luck ? margo : that was the warden in dwight . maddie did n't go and visit her sister . eve does n't even have visiting rights . tom : maybe maddie did n't even know anything out that . margo : well , do n't you think she 'd check that out before she made the trip ? tom : i do n't know what any of these kids are doing , besides lying . i mean , are we really that intimidating ? margo : no , no , we 're not . they 're just -- they just do n't want to disappoint us . they 're trying to protect us . tom : did n't we always say that we could handle anything as long as it was the truth ? margo : yeah . man , what a couple of months this has been . first losing hal , almost losing you , having to send danny off to a boarding school , and then casey gets into all this mess with online gambling and -- and then adam -- adam � s just disappeared . tom : that is all true , but to tell you the truth , i do n't think maddie and casey are trying to spare our feelings . margo : you really think they 're together ? tom : i do . margo : it just seemed like they were so broken up . i mean , after casey was arrested , maddie could n't even look me in the eyes if i asked her as much as a question . tom : well , maybe she felt really abandoned when casey got into the online gambling thing . i mean , given her family history , it 's not what she needs right now . margo : did i tell you that dallas told me that maddie went to the morgue ? tom : what ? no . margo : yeah , yeah , she did . it was a couple weeks ago when that body was found in the woods out by the airport . and maddie told dallas that she just wanted to make sure it was n't another one of her sister 's victims . tom : that 's out there . margo : yeah . and then she lies about this trip to dwight . tom : if gwen and will were actually going to play at the beach , would maddie have gone with them ? margo : yeah , but why keep it a secret ? tom : because if casey was going to go along , they would n't tell anyone , because he would be jumping bail . margo : no , he would n't risk jail just to party . he 's not that stupid . tom : yeah , well , if barbara � s right , and maddie � s in some kind of trouble , would n't casey follow her ? margo : he would . and then when he got picked up . tom : it would be completely out of my hands . because casey knows he can not leave the city limits with serious consequences . and i warned him . margo : yeah , we both did . oh , my god , just a few short months ago , everything was so good . we were so proud of our boys . casey was doing great at the university , and adam was building his reputation in the music industry . now i do n't even know where they are . i do n't even know who they are . what changed ? tom : well , it was n't us . margo : maybe it should have been us . maybe we should have changed . maybe if we had changed , we would have seen this coming , we could have done something . tom : no , it 's not your fault . margo : it does n't matter whose fault it is . bottom line is , we 're losing our family .

[ sighs ] maybe ... it 's about eric ? sarah : i just kept thinking that , like , what if we had to tell him that we lost another person that he loved ? maggie : yeah , but it did n't happen . it turned out okay . sarah : yeah . maggie : mm - hmm . sarah : thank god . [ sniffles ] as soon as marlena pulled through , i - i rushed down to the chapel to tell eric . i will never forget the look on his face when we said that his mom had come back to us , you know , his ... his smile . what ? maggie : you really have it bad for eric , do n't you ? ohh . sweetheart ... i know this is delicate , but maybe ... maybe it 's time . maybe you should finally just tell him how you feel . sarah : i did . and it was a disaster . tripp : i 'm not obsessed with haley , okay , but i do feel bad for the situation she 's in . claire : right . sorry . i , uh , did n't mean to snap at you like that . tripp : you know that haley and i are just friends , right ? i 'm just very concerned about her . claire : yeah , i know . so am i. i really do care about her , and it sucks that someone turned her in . tripp : yeah , and i know who did it . claire : really ? wait -- who ? tripp : mrs. carney . just like you said . claire : oh , wow . [ scoffs ] well ... at least the mystery 's solved . tripp : yeah , i know . i hate what happened , but it 's good to know who 's responsible . claire : yeah . you know , for -- for a little while there , kinda seemed like you thought it was me . tripp : well , only three people knew that haley was staying with us , so ... claire : yeah , and i 'm always the one doing these stupid things out of jealousy , so i get why you would suspect me . i do . but , tripp ... look , when we promised each other no more lies and no more secrets , i meant it . tripp : so did i . claire : then i hope you know that i would never , ever betray your trust like that . tripp : i do . um ... i 'm sorry that i ever doubted you . jj : i know -- i know that it sounds crazy , but marrying me would keep you in this country for sure . haley : what are you talking about , jj ? ice would be on us in a hot minute -- you know that ! jj : not -- not necessarily . haley : jj , we 've been all over the news . everybody knows our deal . we 're not engaged . we 're not even dating and right now , if anything , i 'm just the undocumented chinese woman who was staying at your place because my sister disowned me . you know , you could get arrested ... thrown into jail for fraud . jj : not if it 's a real marriage . which it could be , someday . so there you are with your depression hope : more than 100 bullet holes in the dimera mansion . el fideo 's crew are even more vicious now that he 's dead . ted : wow . how 's ciara ? hope : shaken . you know , just thank god that she got out of there unharmed . ted : we 'll find the person responsible . hope : damn straight , we will . so what else do you have for me ? ted : well ... leo starke submitted all his paperwork . the charges against will and sonny are officially dismissed . hope : good . finally . and ted , there wo n't be any more conflict of interest issues . got it ? ted : well , you have my guilt for torturing two people you care about . hope : just do what you set out to do -- fight for the good guy and put the bad ones away . ted : hope , i 'm trying . trying to turn my life around to be ... to be a better person , to make up for all my ... i wo n't call them mistakes , 'cause they were not mistakes . they were choices , and they were the wrong one . and it took meeting a woman like you to make me see it . hope : thank you . ted : well , it 's true . and i 'd very much like to keep working with you ... to prove to you that i 'm worthy . worthy to keep this job permanent , and with some luck , and your support , i believe i can succeed . hope : i believe we make our own luck . but you do have my support . ted : thank you . tripp : hey , did you ever find out if your mom had any legal advice for haley ? claire : yes . you know , she 's super busy with a case right now , so until she digs out , i am going to do everything i can to help . tripp : like what ? claire : well , for starters , a social media campaign . i have hundreds of thousands of followers , so i 'm gon na tell them all what a great person haley is , i 'm gon na get all of them on her side . i was thinking we could also do a fundraiser , like a mini concert type thing . i was thinking that i could write a song about what haley 's going through . tripp : wow , claire , that would be amazing . you -- you are the best girlfriend ever . claire : ah . wow , it 's amazing to hear you call me that . tripp : yeah , well , why would n't i ? that 's what you are . haley : a real marriage . [ scoffs ] y - you ca n't be serious . jj : i do n't mean right away , but ... we could get there . haley : jj , i -- i do n't want you marrying me out of guilt . jj : haley , it 's ... it 's more than that . you must know by now that i -- i ... have feelings for you . ( announcer ) do you push through migraine ? maggie : what happened with eric ? sarah : [ sighs ] well , um ... before marlena woke up , i found him in the hospital chapel ... praying . maggie : mm - hmm . sarah : he asked me to stay , and we started talking and opening up to each other about love and faith . and i just felt -- i felt so close to him , so ... i kissed him . maggie : ah . just like that , impulsively . sarah : well , do i do anything any other way ? maggie : oh ... okay ! then , having done that , how did he react ? sarah : we did n't get a chance to talk about it right away , because ... brady walked in . maggie : oh ... dear . sarah : so you can imagine how comfortable that was , given the whole eric and nicole thing . oh , and it gets better . because right after brady walked in , rex walks in . maggie : did brady tell rex about the kiss ? sarah : thought that he would , but he didn't . maggie : [ exhales ] sarah : and when eric and i finally got a chance to be alone and talk for a second , we decided that we would n't tell rex because ... eric does n't feel the same way about me as i do him . maggie : you asked him ? sarah : point blank . i told him that i had feelings for him -- which was obvious at that point . and ... he told me that i was a really great ... friend . maggie : oh . honey ... i 'm sorry . sarah : i feel so stupid . and not just because i made such an ass out of myself by kissing eric but because i thought that he wanted that . and of course it 's not what he wants . he 's still mourning nicole . and i knew that , but i just sped right past it like i always do . maggie : [ clears throat ] well , because of this and your scare with marlena ... i think you could use a little escape . [ both laugh ] how 'bout mom treating you to a spa day tomorrow ? massages , manicures ? yes , definitely manicures . [ both laughing ] the whole nine . sarah : that 's really sweet . but i 'm fine , i really am . i just , um ... i think the whole eric thing maybe was just a fixation , and i just have to accept that it 's only platonic between us . at least on his side . and i need to move on . focus on rex . maggie : we , uh , we 've discussed this ... [ laughs ] i mean , you should n't commit to a life with rex by default . sarah : i love him . maggie : do you ? ! sarah : and he loves me . i -- i have to learn how to trust him again . maggie : well , he has his work cut out for him , considering all that he 's done . sarah : i ca n't exactly blame rex for cheating on me when i 've just kissed his brother . oh , my god . [ sighs ] why do i always make such a mess of everything ? maggie : oh ... honey , life . [ chuckles ] eric : i really do n't remember the dream . it 's ... it 's kind of a blur . rex : well , look , um , sorry for asking , but could you help me tidy up a bit ? sarah 's coming over for dinner . [ chuckling ] eric : yeah , sure . i can , uh , go for a run , give you guys some privacy . rex : thank you . i really appreciate it . eric , you really are a great brother . i 'm sorry i ever doubted that . look , um ... i 'm gon na talk to you about this . what brady said , that warning that he gave me ... i admit that i let it ... get to me . not that i ever thought you would hurt me on purpose . it 's just you and sarah are ... you 're very close , and -- eric : rex , i -- rex : no , no , it 's okay , really -- i talked to sarah about it and i know -- i believe that there is nothing romantic going on between the two of you . and why would there be ? you 're our biggest fan . you 're rooting for us . and also talking to brady , he admitted that he was just lashing out because of what was going on with marlena and ... he 's trying to put the situation between you and him and nicole behind him . but it 's tough . eric : yeah , i get it . rex : nicole was the love of your life . and sarah is the love of mine . so again , i 'm sorry that i went there . i know you would never come between me and sarah . claire : so how would you like to take your girlfriend home for a date night ? tripp : look , i 'd love to , but -- claire : look , i know you 're really worried about haley but , you know , with everything she 's going through , she probably just wants to chill by herself upstairs . so how 'bout i make her some food , then we can be alone . tripp : what about ciara ? claire : she has a paper due , so she 'll be at the library till late . so how 'bout this -- i 'll go to the store and i 'll get everything i need to cook you a gourmet dinner . tripp : sounds great . [ beep beep ] claire : what is it ? tripp : the ... the judge made a decision about haley . she has to leave the country within 30 days . claire : oh , no . oh , poor thing . jj : i 've really missed you since you 've been gone . it was nice just ... having meals together , playing music and talking , and i - i actually felt like we were ... we were really starting to connect before everything hit the fan . haley : but it did . jj : i know . and i wish so badly that we could just pick up where we left off and go slow and get to know each other , but right now , the clock is ticking . we have to jump right in and get married and -- sarah : okay , okay , um ... even if i thought this was a good idea -- which i do n't -- there 's still one huge reason i ca n't marry you , jj . jj : what 's that ? haley : you ca n't fix this . you can't . you betrayed my confidence , and that 's ... that 's why i 'm in this situation now . and yes , i 've let it go . i 've let it go because i 'm tired of being angry . i do n't wan na be angry anymore at you or anybody else . but ... marrying you ... no . no , i - i can't . i won't . ted : hey , hope . i owe you an apology . hope : for what ? ted : well , your husband does n't seem to like very much the fact that you are in my corner . and i 'm sorry if i create any conflict . have you two made peace yet ? hope : unfortunately , no , uh , we haven't . things are still a little -- ted : you know , i know you have some issues with rafe 's loyalty . i just want to say that i hope i did n't make anything worse . hope : rafe and i will ... we 'll work through this . ted : not tonight . hope : uh ... no . not tonight . ted : well , in that case , let me order dinner -- like a real dinner . we can eat and work at the same time , right ? hope : something more nutritious than this ? [ both laugh ] jj : i understand why you hold me responsible for the situation you 're in . hell , haley , look , i am responsible . but there are n't too many other ways to avoid getting deported . like i said , i just ... i want to do this for you . you know , why don't ... why do n't you just come back to my place , there 's no pressure , just to give you some alone time to think . and if you do end up saying yes , it might look good that you 're staying with me again . haley : i - i can't . i need to go back to the loft . jj : are n't there a bunch of reporters camped out there ? haley : there 's a back entrance , so i - i can avoid them . jj : okay , um ... it 's your call . whatever decision you make tonight and going forward , i 'll respect them , and i promise not to push . but haley , we 're under the gun . haley : okay . tripp : straight to voice mail . maybe haley turned off her phone to avoid the press . claire : yeah . or maybe she 's meeting with her sister . she is a big - time lawyer . tripp : yeah , and a big - time ice queen . claire : well , yes , that is true , but her little sister 's about to get deported . so i 'd say it 's possible that her heart melted just a little bit . tripp : maybe you 're right . claire : look , since we ca n't reach haley , i 'd say the best thing for us to do is just be at home , right , for if and when she decides to come back . tripp : okay , yeah . i 'll head there now . claire : great . and i 'll pick up something special for dinner , and i 'll see you soon . tripp : all right . rafe : can i have a minute alone with my wife ? ted : uh , certainly . rafe : mm . great . hi . hope : hi . rafe : i was hoping you could find time to have dinner with me tonight . i know obviously you 're ... busy . uh ... okay , look , uh ...

( nora ) before we start - how much is my tax prep going to cost ? sarah : no , no -- rex : yes . this is it . sarah : no , it 's not ! rex : i know it -- sarah : no , it 's heart , hands , then steering wheel . rex : that 's what i was doing ! sarah : i do n't know what you were doing ! rex : no , i was like , yeah -- sarah : oh , watch , okay . you do the heart hands first . rex : okay . sarah : you got ta do , like , heart hands and then steering wheel . but if you wan na start it , then you do the -- oh ! rex : oh ! oh , jeez , sarah , oh , my god ! are you okay ? you 're like a ton of bricks , babe . [ both laughing ] eric : what happened ? i heard a crash . rex : that was the sound of sarah 's butt hitting the floor . sarah : shut up ! eric : are you okay ? sarah : i 'm fine . rex : put your arm around me . sarah : i 'm just a spaz . i think i might have twisted my ankle . rex : here , have a seat . put your foot up here . and on a pillow . let me look at that . yep , that 's , uh , that 's a sprain . uh , eric , could you grab some ice ? eric : yeah . rex : please . sarah : aw , thank you , doc . but it really does n't even hurt . rex : doc , look , i know you 're tough , but i 'm gon na go grab a compression bandage from my bag , and after the swelling goes down from the ice , i think that will do the trick , okay ? eric : it 's a little cold ... right here . [ soft r & b continues playing ] tripp : wow , that is ... that 's just ... haley : insane , right ? i told you . tripp : yeah . why -- why would jj think -- i mean , you 've been so angry at him for telling his dad about your status ... haley : and you know , i 'm still pretty angry , but he feels so bad , and i know he wants to make it up to me , so now he 's making this grand gesture to fix his mistake . tripp : what about ice ? i mean , would n't they know the marriage is fake ? haley : [ sighs ] they 'd be watching every move we make , but ... tripp , i do n't have any other options . i do n't know what to do , so part of me is actually thinking of saying yes . [ sighs ] but what if we get busted and then ... instead of going back to china , i go to prison , and so does jj ? tripp : i wish there was something i could do . haley : that 's so nice of you , but ... i do n't think there is . rafe : oop , allow me . hope : thank you . rafe : by the way , do you remember what i gave you last valentine 's day ? hope : uh , the lasso rafe : the lasso . yes . hope : yes , the lasso . how could i forget ? at one point i really wanted to strangle you with it . rafe : oh , come on . you loved it . hope : i did . rafe : you know that that was a symbol ... a symbol that was supposed to bind us together forever , right ? and symbols are nice , they 're great ... but they 're no substitution for this ... being together , here , with you , focusing on you . letting you know that you are and always will be my top priority . now , with that said , on this day that we are celebrating our anniversary , i want to make you a promise . i promise you ... the good times are coming back . they 're coming back . we are gon na go to the movies . we 're gon na go to the cubs games -- we 're gon na go on a vacation ! we 're gon na go anywhere . hope : anywhere ? no , wait -- anywhere ? rafe : yes . yes , i mean it . we are going anywhere , and not because we are looking for stefano or working on some case . we are gon na go ... we 're gon na go to the most beautiful place in the world , and i 'm gon na be there with the most beautiful woman in the world ... my friend , my partner , my wife . i love you . i love you so much ... from the bottom of my heart , and i always will .

( announcer ) do you push through migraine ? maggie : what happened with eric ? sarah : [ sighs ] well , um ... before marlena woke up , i found him in the hospital chapel ... praying . maggie : mm - hmm . sarah : he asked me to stay , and we started talking and opening up to each other about love and faith . and i just felt -- i felt so close to him , so ... i kissed him . maggie : ah . just like that , impulsively . sarah : well , do i do anything any other way ? maggie : oh ... okay ! then , having done that , how did he react ? sarah : we did n't get a chance to talk about it right away , because ... brady walked in . maggie : oh ... dear . sarah : so you can imagine how comfortable that was , given the whole eric and nicole thing . oh , and it gets better . because right after brady walked in , rex walks in . maggie : did brady tell rex about the kiss ? sarah : thought that he would , but he didn't . maggie : [ exhales ] sarah : and when eric and i finally got a chance to be alone and talk for a second , we decided that we would n't tell rex because ... eric does n't feel the same way about me as i do him . maggie : you asked him ? sarah : point blank . i told him that i had feelings for him -- which was obvious at that point . and ... he told me that i was a really great ... friend . maggie : oh . honey ... i 'm sorry . sarah : i feel so stupid . and not just because i made such an ass out of myself by kissing eric but because i thought that he wanted that . and of course it 's not what he wants . he 's still mourning nicole . and i knew that , but i just sped right past it like i always do . maggie : [ clears throat ] well , because of this and your scare with marlena ... i think you could use a little escape . [ both laugh ] how 'bout mom treating you to a spa day tomorrow ? massages , manicures ? yes , definitely manicures . [ both laughing ] the whole nine . sarah : that 's really sweet . but i 'm fine , i really am . i just , um ... i think the whole eric thing maybe was just a fixation , and i just have to accept that it 's only platonic between us . at least on his side . and i need to move on . focus on rex . maggie : we , uh , we 've discussed this ... [ laughs ] i mean , you should n't commit to a life with rex by default . sarah : i love him . maggie : do you ? ! sarah : and he loves me . i -- i have to learn how to trust him again . maggie : well , he has his work cut out for him , considering all that he 's done . sarah : i ca n't exactly blame rex for cheating on me when i 've just kissed his brother . oh , my god . [ sighs ] why do i always make such a mess of everything ? maggie : oh ... honey , life . [ chuckles ] eric : i really do n't remember the dream . it 's ... it 's kind of a blur . rex : well , look , um , sorry for asking , but could you help me tidy up a bit ? sarah 's coming over for dinner . [ chuckling ] eric : yeah , sure . i can , uh , go for a run , give you guys some privacy . rex : thank you . i really appreciate it . eric , you really are a great brother . i 'm sorry i ever doubted that . look , um ... i 'm gon na talk to you about this . what brady said , that warning that he gave me ... i admit that i let it ... get to me . not that i ever thought you would hurt me on purpose . it 's just you and sarah are ... you 're very close , and -- eric : rex , i -- rex : no , no , it 's okay , really -- i talked to sarah about it and i know -- i believe that there is nothing romantic going on between the two of you . and why would there be ? you 're our biggest fan . you 're rooting for us . and also talking to brady , he admitted that he was just lashing out because of what was going on with marlena and ... he 's trying to put the situation between you and him and nicole behind him . but it 's tough . eric : yeah , i get it . rex : nicole was the love of your life . and sarah is the love of mine . so again , i 'm sorry that i went there . i know you would never come between me and sarah . claire : so how would you like to take your girlfriend home for a date night ? tripp : look , i 'd love to , but -- claire : look , i know you 're really worried about haley but , you know , with everything she 's going through , she probably just wants to chill by herself upstairs . so how 'bout i make her some food , then we can be alone . tripp : what about ciara ? claire : she has a paper due , so she 'll be at the library till late . so how 'bout this -- i 'll go to the store and i 'll get everything i need to cook you a gourmet dinner . tripp : sounds great . [ beep beep ] claire : what is it ? tripp : the ... the judge made a decision about haley . she has to leave the country within 30 days . claire : oh , no . oh , poor thing . jj : i 've really missed you since you 've been gone . it was nice just ... having meals together , playing music and talking , and i - i actually felt like we were ... we were really starting to connect before everything hit the fan . haley : but it did . jj : i know . and i wish so badly that we could just pick up where we left off and go slow and get to know each other , but right now , the clock is ticking . we have to jump right in and get married and -- sarah : okay , okay , um ... even if i thought this was a good idea -- which i do n't -- there 's still one huge reason i ca n't marry you , jj . jj : what 's that ? haley : you ca n't fix this . you can't . you betrayed my confidence , and that 's ... that 's why i 'm in this situation now . and yes , i 've let it go . i 've let it go because i 'm tired of being angry . i do n't wan na be angry anymore at you or anybody else . but ... marrying you ... no . no , i - i can't . i won't . ted : hey , hope . i owe you an apology . hope : for what ? ted : well , your husband does n't seem to like very much the fact that you are in my corner . and i 'm sorry if i create any conflict . have you two made peace yet ? hope : unfortunately , no , uh , we haven't . things are still a little -- ted : you know , i know you have some issues with rafe 's loyalty . i just want to say that i hope i did n't make anything worse . hope : rafe and i will ... we 'll work through this . ted : not tonight . hope : uh ... no . not tonight . ted : well , in that case , let me order dinner -- like a real dinner . we can eat and work at the same time , right ? hope : something more nutritious than this ? [ both laugh ] jj : i understand why you hold me responsible for the situation you 're in . hell , haley , look , i am responsible . but there are n't too many other ways to avoid getting deported . like i said , i just ... i want to do this for you . you know , why don't ... why do n't you just come back to my place , there 's no pressure , just to give you some alone time to think . and if you do end up saying yes , it might look good that you 're staying with me again . haley : i - i can't . i need to go back to the loft . jj : are n't there a bunch of reporters camped out there ? haley : there 's a back entrance , so i - i can avoid them . jj : okay , um ... it 's your call . whatever decision you make tonight and going forward , i 'll respect them , and i promise not to push . but haley , we 're under the gun . haley : okay . tripp : straight to voice mail . maybe haley turned off her phone to avoid the press . claire : yeah . or maybe she 's meeting with her sister . she is a big - time lawyer . tripp : yeah , and a big - time ice queen . claire : well , yes , that is true , but her little sister 's about to get deported . so i 'd say it 's possible that her heart melted just a little bit . tripp : maybe you 're right . claire : look , since we ca n't reach haley , i 'd say the best thing for us to do is just be at home , right , for if and when she decides to come back . tripp : okay , yeah . i 'll head there now . claire : great . and i 'll pick up something special for dinner , and i 'll see you soon . tripp : all right . rafe : can i have a minute alone with my wife ? ted : uh , certainly . rafe : mm . great . hi . hope : hi . rafe : i was hoping you could find time to have dinner with me tonight . i know obviously you 're ... busy . uh ... okay , look , uh ...

spinelli : brook lynn seducing dante is of course devoutly to be wished . it will open fair lulu 's eyes to the truth of the betrayer 's callous heart and free her from his deceitful clutches . and then we will move on to stage 2 , the total annihilation of dante . carly : i want dante to get a taste of what he gave michael . i want him brought up on criminal charges , i want him to lose his badge , and i want him to sit in pentonville until he rots . you can handle that , ca n't you , spinelli ?

[ scene_break ] valentin : i am charlotte 's father , and i only want what 's best for her , so i will not make a scene . but the two of you and the state of new york will be hearing from my attorneys , and once the technicalities are all taken care of , she will be coming to live with me . in the meantime , i would ask that you do not question my daughter about me or fill her head with the idea that i 'm in any way dangerous or bad or a threat , because i 'm not . i 'm just a father who loves her . simple as that . nina : [ chuckles ] you know what ? i am gon na give you this . it 's my favorite . valentin : charlotte , ma petite , it 's time for you to go . charlotte : not yet . valentin : yes ! yes . your new friends are leaving , and you 've got to go with them . charlotte : but why ? i miss you . valentin : and i miss you . but your new friends will take very good care of you and make sure that you are happy . griffin : hey . you were n't surprised . you expected the -- the dna test to show that valentin was the father ? anna : let 's talk about this later , shall we ? griffin : yes . charlotte : yes . valentin : the north star , visible anywhere in the northern hemisphere , from canada all the way to greece , all the way outside your window here in port charles . anna : come with me , charlotte . come on . valentin : [ breathes deeply ] nina : okay . that -- that ca n't have been easy . valentin : no . no , it was n't . but i 'm not surprised that anna and father munro want to protect charlotte from me . i mean , after that stuff in greece last summer , everybody seems to think i 'm some dangerous individual . nina : well , maybe they 're right . but not to charlotte . valentin : what do you mean by that ? nina : well , it 's obvious she adores you . [ scene_break ] michael : well ? carly : it 's not a confession . it 's a request .

[ sighs ] you can almost feel sorry for him . he 's had long enough to feel he 's charlotte 's father , and now he 's losing her . nina : you do n't need to feel sorry for griffin munro . valentin : oh . are you not a fan ? nina : no , not after what he did to my brother .

[ scene_break ] carly : i do n't know what your father thought he was accomplishing by sending himself to prison . michael : he was taking responsibility for what -- carly : but he was taking himself out of his kids ' lives . i mean , think about it ! it 's one thing for you , dante , and kristina . i mean , you guys are gon na hurt , you 're gon na miss him . but what about avery ? she 's a baby ! and now she 's gon na have to spend her time with ava . do you think that ava 's gon na let me spend any time with her ? no ! that little girl 's gon na grow up with that hateful woman , who is going to use and manipulate her , and her father , who is supposed to protect her , is gon na be rotting in a prison cell ! and why ? ! it 's not gon na bring your brother back . i mean , outside of easing sonny 's conscience , what the hell does it do ? ! michael : this is how dad is dealing with what happened to morgan . maybe you do n't agree with it , but dad did what he thought was right . carly : dad does what he always wants to do ! just like -- i 'm not gon na fight with you . i - i got to -- i 'm gon na go to the hotel , and i 'm gon na work . michael : mom . carly : i ca n't do it . michael : [ sighs ] i 'm an idiot .

[ scene_break ] jordan : you ready for this ? dante : i was there for the confession . if it was anyone but my father , it 'd be my duty to see this through . jordan : yeah , but it is your father , and he is about to admit to killing your brother . dante : i 'm not gon na recuse myself , so unless you take me off the case ... jordan : no , i 'm not . not yet . dante : let 's do this . jordan : okay . diane : uh - oh . no , no . i need to speak with my client privately . and may i remind you that any statements he 's already made , without benefit of counsel , will be inadmissible . dante : sorry , diane , but you 're already too late . [ scene_break ] sonny : are you telling me the hit i put on julian was cancelled ? jason : yes . just like you asked , mezzo called off the hit . whoever put that bomb in julian 's car was n't on your order . sonny : so i 'm not responsible for my son 's death ? jason : no , you 're not . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i do n't understand . after everything we just went through , why are you lying to me now ? franco : i -- elizabeth : does it have something to do with that piece of paper in your hand ? franco : okay . well , look . if -- if i tell you , then , you know , you 're ruining the surprise . elizabeth : what surprise ? franco : i was planning on leaving work early and ... heading to your favorite restaurant for take - out , and then ... i was hoping for , you know , a marathon session of ... the whole family playing uno . elizabeth : well , that 's sweet . you know how much the boys would love that . but you should n't be missing work just to get us dinner . franco : i would do anything for you , elizabeth . you have to know that by now . [ pager beeping ] elizabeth : oh , i 'm due in the icu . but i guess i 'll see you a little later tonight for some uno . franco : okay . better order take - out ... figure out how to play uno . dr. obrecht : what are you doing ? franco : what am i doing ? what -- what are you sneaking up on me like that ? dr. obrecht : whose address is this ? franco : give that back . dr. obrecht : not until you tell me what this means . franco : okay , you know what ? it does n't matter . i memorized it , anyway . dr. obrecht : 826 oak street , port charles -- not the most respectable neighborhood . what business do you have there ? franco : okay . could you keep it down , please ? and could you please try and respect my privacy ? dr. obrecht : i 'm your friend , and as such , i expect a better explanation than that geschwafel you were feeding elizabeth . franco : i know what i 'm doing . dr. obrecht : [ scoffs ] the male ego . it leads to so much disaster . you leave me no choice but to show this address to ms. webber and tell her about your strange , odd behavior . perhaps she can shed some light on the subject . franco : okay , fine , fine . hold on a second . you 're right , okay ? i 'm not going to oak street for take - out . i 'm going there to save elizabeth . [ scene_break ] nina : here . why do n't you put this in your ears and you can hear my heart beat ? anna : all right , you have every right under new york state law to petition for custody in a family court , but just because you are the biological father does n't mean that you will automatically receive custody , especially given your problematic background . valentin : all criminal charges against me have been dismissed . anna : oh , yes . valentin : and before you launch into a litany of my alleged crimes , i 'll thank you to remember that my daughter is in the room . and it wo n't do her any good to hear a lot of unfounded claims against me that can not be proven . griffin : oh , i see . so we should n't call you out on what you 've done , for charlotte 's sake ? valentin : my point is , you ca n't prove anything . so why do n't you just let us leave ? anna : well , charlotte 's mother left her in griffin 's care , and that is where she 's gon na stay until there is a family - court determination . valentin : uh , it pains me to admit this , but claudette is less than reliable . anna : and it would be so helpful if we could locate her -- just to hear her side of the story -- but she appears to have vanished . and , i mean , you would n't know anything about that , would you ? of course not . valentin : claudette 's actions have always been a mystery to me . i have no idea why she brought charlotte to port charles or why she lied about the paternity , but i do n't really care . i just want to bring my daughter home . anna : all right . if , as you say , charlotte is your main concern ... valentin : she 's my only concern . anna : ... then i suggest you let her leave with us so this does n't get unpleasant . okay ? [ scene_break ] carly : i saw this with sonny the last time i was at his house . i asked him about it , and he said that it ... did n't matter . you know , maybe he was saving it for after the funeral . maybe he planned on confessing all along . what did he say to you when he gave you this ? nelle : not to give it to you until after morgan 's funeral . i mean , he was very specific . carly : well , i heard his confession at the chapel , okay ? i do n't need to read another one . michael : but , mom , you have no idea what 's in that letter . i doubt dad wrote the exact same thing he said at church . just ... read it . carly : do you know what 's in it ? michael : no , i have no idea . carly : do you know what 's in this letter ? nelle : no . no clue . [ scene_break ] diane : why do n't you be a little more specific , detective ? why is it too late ? dante : sonny confessed -- in front of me , the commissioner , and about 12 other witnesses . jordan : yes , that 's right -- your client already confessed in broad strokes that he 's responsible for the death of his son . we 're just waiting on the exact details . diane : well , that may be your interpretation , commissioner , but i - i doubt a judge or jury would see it that way . either way , i am determined to speak to my client in private . dante : that 's good . i want you to speak to him . but just know that it 's gon na be different this time . it 's over . [ scene_break ] sonny : if i 'm not responsible for morgan 's death , who is ? jason : i do n't know . i do n't know yet . but what i did get out of mezzo was that they would n't have been planning on using a bomb . they were gon na stage a slip and fall in the shower , make it an accident . sonny : i told mezzo , i said , `` look , i do n't want anything traced back to me , `` so staging an accident would make sense . jason : right . sonny : which means this bomb was probably set by another party . you know julian 's got a lot of enemies . sonny : we got to find out who it is . jason : and we will . sonny : well , uh ... you know what i mean ? i do n't want you to get involved in this if it 's gon na get messy . jason : then it gets messy . i 'm with you on this all the way . we 're gon na find out who did this to morgan . sonny : thank you . [ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : how are you saving elizabeth ? franco : it has to do with the man who raped elizabeth when she was a teenager . tom baker . dr. obrecht : yes . you told me he was up for parole . franco : well , he 's been released , and he 's planning on staying with his brother right here in port charles . dr. obrecht : you mean at 826 oak street ? franco : yes . dr. obrecht : [ scoffs ] are you going to see him ? to do what , exactly ? franco : well , i -- just ... to make sure that elizabeth is safe . dr. obrecht : [ sighs ] oh , no . franco : wait . hold on a second . no , i 'm not gon na do anything crazy . i know that 's relative . look , i -- okay . i 'm not gon na do anything rash ... i do n't think . i want to size the guy up . i want to make sure that i can figure out how to -- how to protect elizabeth . dr. obrecht : why is that nurse doing this to you ? franco : elizabeth has no idea about this man . i do n't want her to know . dr. obrecht : you just got your job back when the hospital reopened . why are you risking that by tangling with a dangerous criminal ? ! franco : because elizabeth is very important to me , and i would do anything to keep her safe . dr. obrecht : no . i wo n't let you . franco : okay . liesl , listen . i - i really like being friends with you , but if you 're asking me to choose between you and elizabeth , you 're gon na lose . elizabeth : franco , i thought you were leaving . okay , clearly , something is wrong . franco : it 's nothing . dr. obrecht : oh , yes . yes , it is . [ scene_break ] valentin : i am charlotte 's father , and i only want what 's best for her , so i will not make a scene . but the two of you and the state of new york will be hearing from my attorneys , and once the technicalities are all taken care of , she will be coming to live with me . in the meantime , i would ask that you do not question my daughter about me or fill her head with the idea that i 'm in any way dangerous or bad or a threat , because i 'm not . i 'm just a father who loves her . simple as that . nina : [ chuckles ] you know what ? i am gon na give you this . it 's my favorite . valentin : charlotte , ma petite , it 's time for you to go . charlotte : not yet . valentin : yes ! yes . your new friends are leaving , and you 've got to go with them . charlotte : but why ? i miss you . valentin : and i miss you . but your new friends will take very good care of you and make sure that you are happy . griffin : hey . you were n't surprised . you expected the -- the dna test to show that valentin was the father ? anna : let 's talk about this later , shall we ? griffin : yes . charlotte : yes . valentin : the north star , visible anywhere in the northern hemisphere , from canada all the way to greece , all the way outside your window here in port charles . anna : come with me , charlotte . come on . valentin : [ breathes deeply ] nina : okay . that -- that ca n't have been easy . valentin : no . no , it was n't . but i 'm not surprised that anna and father munro want to protect charlotte from me . i mean , after that stuff in greece last summer , everybody seems to think i 'm some dangerous individual . nina : well , maybe they 're right . but not to charlotte . valentin : what do you mean by that ? nina : well , it 's obvious she adores you . [ scene_break ] michael : well ? carly : it 's not a confession . it 's a request . [ sighs ] your father donated a third of his assets to set up a foundation in morgan 's name . he set up trusts -- million dollars apiece -- for you , kristina , dante , and avery , and the rest goes to me . diane set the whole thing up . so your father was planning on confessing at the funeral all along . now his assets ca n't be tied up if and when he is criminally charged . nelle : well , it sounds like you 'll never have to worry about anything , financially . carly : yeah , lucky me . i never have to worry about anything again , financially speaking , right ? michael : hey , mom , mom , dad 's trying the only way he can to still take care of us . carly : i know -- he says that . right here , he says , `` i know money does n't fix everything , but it is all i have to leave to you . i trust that you will do better by the kids than i have done . `` [ scene_break ] sonny : if we had known this information earlier , we would 've known that somebody else was responsible for killing my son . jason : okay . what are you gon na tell the cops ? 'cause you ca n't go down for something you did n't do . [ door opens ] jordan : jason , what the hell do you think you 're doing in here ? [ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : all this good feeling and pitching in together is a sham . this hospital is as inefficient as ever . elizabeth : what was that all about ? franco : i have no idea . i guess just another one of her teutonic meltdowns . elizabeth : does it involve me ? franco : i honestly have no idea . i mean , with her accent , most of the time , i have a hard time figuring out what she 's saying . i 'll see you at dinner , all right ? [ scene_break ] valentin : want to thank you for protecting her . she could have very easily become upset . i 'm very grateful you kept her out of the fray . nina : no problem . i love kids . and i had fun playing with charlotte . uh , while i 'm well aware you 're not always the perfect gentleman you appear to be ... i think that anna and griffin had a lot of nerve insisting that they leave with charlotte . valentin : yeah , anna was misguided . i mean , she clearly thinks she 's on the side of the angels , and father munro ... [ sighs ] you can almost feel sorry for him . he 's had long enough to feel he 's charlotte 's father , and now he 's losing her . nina : you do n't need to feel sorry for griffin munro . valentin : oh . are you not a fan ? nina : no , not after what he did to my brother . [ scene_break ] anna : yes , yes , i understand that . mm - hmm . no , thank you . thank you very much , yeah . goodbye , yeah . [ mouthing indistinctly ] griffin : hey , um , you keep coloring . i 'm just gon na be right over there , okay ? anna : okay . so , i just got off with my contact at child services . right . and i explained the recent twist in the situation with charlotte , and i convinced her to allow us to keep her for now . but we 're gon na need written consent from the mother , which is easier said than done because we have no idea where she is . griffin : wait , wait , wait . you still have n't answered my question . you seemed to know valentin cassadine was gon na turn out to be charlotte 's father . anna : no , i did n't . i was n't certain . but there had to be a reason he was so focused on charlotte . plus , all my years at the bureau sort of taught me to consider every possibility . what i could n't prepare for is how you 're feeling right now . griffin : because , for a while , i thought i was a father , and now i know i 'm not . anna : yeah . and you 're attached . griffin : yeah . anna : i 'm sorry . griffin : i mean , it 's been one shock after another . finding out that i -- that i had a daughter , you know , meeting charlotte , feeling that instant bond , i mean ... anna : yeah . griffin : ... wanting to protect her and keep her safe . now that 's all being yanked away from me , and it 's -- it 's killing me . anna : i 'm sure it is . but this is what i need you to do . i want you to put all your emotions to the side , because what we have to do is concentrate on the legal situation , which is very complex , because we have two biological parents that are alive -- we think -- and from a legal standpoint , it appears that claudette has just simply abandoned her child . so if you want to keep charlotte out of valentin 's hands , you are going to have to be the better parent than the biological father . are you willing to be that ? griffin : yeah , of course . why would n't i be ? anna : being a parent is a forever job . are you up for that ? [ scene_break ] carly : i do n't know what your father thought he was accomplishing by sending himself to prison . michael : he was taking responsibility for what -- carly : but he was taking himself out of his kids ' lives . i mean , think about it ! it 's one thing for you , dante , and kristina . i mean , you guys are gon na hurt , you 're gon na miss him . but what about avery ? she 's a baby ! and now she 's gon na have to spend her time with ava . do you think that ava 's gon na let me spend any time with her ? no ! that little girl 's gon na grow up with that hateful woman , who is going to use and manipulate her , and her father , who is supposed to protect her , is gon na be rotting in a prison cell ! and why ? ! it 's not gon na bring your brother back . i mean , outside of easing sonny 's conscience , what the hell does it do ? ! michael : this is how dad is dealing with what happened to morgan . maybe you do n't agree with it , but dad did what he thought was right . carly : dad does what he always wants to do ! just like -- i 'm not gon na fight with you . i - i got to -- i 'm gon na go to the hotel , and i 'm gon na work . michael : mom . carly : i ca n't do it . michael : [ sighs ] i 'm an idiot .

[ door opens ] jordan : we just brought him in here to get a more detailed statement . sonny : i changed my mind . i got nothing to say . [ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : you are your own worst enemy , franco .

[ scene_break ] franco : huh . okay . then this is the place . wow , liesl , you were n't kidding . this is a crummy neighborhood . still too good for tom baker . [ leaves rustling ] [ banging on door ] [ scene_break ] nina : my brother married claudette . it started off as a green - card marriage , so she could stay in the us . he fell in love with her . and he thought that she loved him in return until he walked in one day and caught her in bed ... with father munro . seems that , um , his vow of celibacy was n't that important to him . valentin : well , i 'm in no position to judge another man 's weakness . unless , of course , that man is taking me to family court for custody of my child . can i call you as a character witness ? nina : i 'm not taking sides . valentin : uh , you already have . you 're on charlotte 's side . and i can not tell you how grateful i am . [ scene_break ] griffin : you do n't pull any punches , do you ? anna : oh , well , we 're talking about a child 's welfare here . you need to be able to answer the difficult questions . griffin : okay , then . for years , i 've been struggling to define my life , choose my future . am i a priest , or am i doctor ? which is exactly the opposite of everything i 've been taught to believe in . we 're supposed to live in the here and the now , accept that god has a plan for us , and he 'll reveal it on his terms , not ours . so if i can accept that for now , for today , well , then my only job is to ... care for and love charlotte -- treat her as a daughter , even if she 's not biologically mine . anna : okay . well , you heard what i said to valentin -- that it did n't matter if he had managed to bribe his way out of his crimes in greece . they are still admissible in family court . plus , there was a roomful of people that saw him shoot kevin . and people know that he tried to take spencer from camp . you know , there was one possibility , i thought . claudette 's mother -- is there any way that you could get her to testify on your behalf ? because that would be a big help . griffin : [ scoffs ] i was claudette 's priest . you know , we had an affair that wound up ending her marriage . i 'm not sure her mom 's my biggest fan . anna : no , probably not . so , i 'll just ramp up my investigation of valentin . and i promise you , whatever sins you think you 've committed , his are a thousand times worse .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : i 'm a horrible person ? where is this attitude coming from ? dr. obrecht : as you remember , i fired you once . so i 've never been fond of your professional skills . as for your personal life ... your dealings with jason morgan prove beyond question that you are a liar and always play the damsel in distress so that men will rescue you . elizabeth : how dare you . dr. obrecht : how dare i what ? speak the truth ? you only pretend to be fragile and delicate . elizabeth : [ scoffs ] dr. obrecht : in truth , you are a ruthless manipulator . i wo n't allow franco to fall prey to your ... passive - aggressive machinations . elizabeth : franco is a grown man , and remember , he pursued me . i do n't understand . franco and i have been getting closer for months . why today are you in overdrive , attacking me ? dr. obrecht : i 've wasted enough time on you . i have patients to attend . elizabeth : who or what is on oak street ?

[ chuckles ] sonny : yeah , i know . thank you . diane : so , it seems you have had a change of heart regarding your confession . sonny : yeah , but i think it 's a little too late at this point . diane : mnh - mnh . no , you leave that part to me . i want to know everything you said at the church . [ scene_break ] dante : he confessed in a church in front of a bunch of people . yeah . how can he go back on that ? jordan : i do n't know . i do n't know . maybe -- maybe he -- he had an emotional outburst in the church , and then , when that was done , jason came in , calmed him down , and just convinced him to -- to recant . i do n't know . not that it 's gon na do him any good , dante . he already confessed to being solely responsible for the murder of his son in front -- in a church full of witnesses , including you and me . dante : right . so ? jordan : i know what i need to do next .

tico : antonio , you helped me out in puerto rico . now you offer to let me stay here while i meet the rest of my family , but i sense that you have a problem with me . am i right ? antonio : it 's just a reflex . i 'm a cop . i have to be careful of my family . tico : even with your family ? oh , i see , just because jessica found me chained up in the santi vault does n't mean i 'm ok . i could 've chained up myself , then , just try to fake you out . antonio : it 's nothing personal . tico : well , is there anything i can do to earn your trust ? antonio : it 's done . your d.n.a . 's being tested . tico : how ? antonio : jessica gave me a bandana with your blood on it . the results just came in . john : how are you ? natalie : great . i think i left my passport here when you dragged paul and david and myself away from puerto rico for that 419 . john : no , that would be a 417 . natalie : whatever . paul said it was bogus anyway . john : well , as usual , paul would be wrong . 417 is a legitimate charge -- fleeing f.b.i . custody . technically , you could 've been charged , too , natalie . natalie : excuse me , i was n't in custody . john : once you went searching for that santi vault , that 's a conspiracy to fraud the government out of impoundable drug money . natalie : my god , you can be such a buzz kill . john : i know . i 've been told that before . but you are lucky you were n't charged , natalie . natalie : fine , whatever . listen , is there any sort of law against paul and i moving in together ? because that 's exactly what i plan on doing . kelly : what 's this ? paul : it 's a peace offering . kelly : where did you steal them ? paul : listen , natalie and i are moving in together and kind of wanted to start fresh , you know , so , can we forgive and forget ? kelly : yeah , i do n't think so . paul : listen , kelly , i do n't want to have to remind you , but if it was n't for me , you would n't have ace . kelly : paul , you would n't know anything about these anonymous letters that kevin receives , saying that todd is ace 's father -- you know anything about that ? you realize he 's divorcing me because of it ? paul : well -- divorce ? i 'm sorry , but -- kelly : i do n't know how you could possibly do something like that , you disgusting little rat ! paul : kelly -- kelly : you almost destroyed my life ! paul : all right , all right . kevin : now , todd can hack into our system only once , scramble our accounts , but he 's not going to beat me . not now , not ever . asa : i 'm glad to see you back on your feet . kevin : why would n't i be ? asa : well , for one , you got arrested for drunk driving . then you tangled with kelly at the police station . some folks are worried that you 're , you know , kind of losing it . kevin : well , do n't worry . i 'm handling kelly , too . asa : good . so , what 's your plan ? kevin : well , you always said that the best defense is a good offense . so i 'm going to fight for custody of ace , and when i 'm through , kelly and todd are never going to see him again . todd : the kids are playing computer games . blair : well , i am sorry i stood you up . todd : yeah ? we missed you . blair : well , believe me , i 'd much rather be at the park having a picnic with my family , but -- todd : where were you ? blair : dorian and kelly ambushed me to keep my mouth shut about ace . todd : look , whatever you want to do about that -- [ doorbell rings ] todd : hold on . viki : may i come in , please ? todd : sure . viki : hi , blair . blair : hi , viki . you look pretty . viki : thank you . todd : you ok ? viki : no , i 'm not ok . todd : you do n't -- you do n't look so great . viki : no . todd : how 's your heart ? viki : my heart is fine . i 'm not fine , ok ? look , this lie of kelly 's has affected my son kevin so much . it has changed him completely , and i ca n't get through to him anymore . todd : i 'm not the guy who can help you with that . viki : well , i think you are , and i think you can help me , too . blair : ok , well , what can we do , viki ? viki : you can tell me the truth ! todd , if you 're not ace 's father , then who is ? and why in god 's name is kelly telling kevin that she betrayed him with you , his worst enemy , when it 's not true ? blair : well , i think you 're going to have to handle this one , todd . viki : will you please tell me the truth ? there are so many lives at stake here ! singer : you never gave me room adriana : river ? singer : inside this place and now i 'm joking from the autumn that i face no one to save me now john : natalie , last time i checked , there 's no law against cohabitation . i believe this is yours . natalie : thanks , john . well , i 'm sure you will find one . john : you two kids stay out of trouble , and you wo n't be getting any hassles from me . i hope you wo n't mind if i challenge you to the odd game of pool . natalie : oh , well , you are a mile away . i guess the rumors are true . john : what rumors ? natalie : that you 're finally moving on . john : moving on ? i do n't even know what that means . natalie : with evangeline williamson ? kelly : you completely destroyed my marriage ! paul : kelly , some things went wrong . all the -- kelly : what on earth were you thinking ? paul : i 'm sorry , ok ? i -- i thought that , you know , hinting that todd was ace 's father , that kevin would , you know , pay for some information , but he did n't take the bait . kelly : you are such an idiot . why would he pay for that kind of information , huh ? he would just get a blood test , and then he 'd find out that i was n't ace 's biological mother , either ! paul : i was n't thinking that far ahead . kelly : obviously . you know , you left me no other choice . i had to tell kevin that his worst enemy is ace 's father . paul : right . kelly : did you ever once think about what this is going to do to me ? how it was going to ruin my life ? paul : what about me ? all right , you 're the one that turned me in to john mcbain for a murder i did n't commit ! kelly : because i wanted you in police custody ! i did n't want you to get killed ! paul : oh -- oh , great ! well , thank you , kelly . now i 'm john mcbain 's personal hobby . wonderful . look , i know . i 'm sorry , ok ? it was lousy for me to send those letters . kelly : well , i 've already lost kevin . at least i have n't lost ace , too . paul : he 's the only thing that matters now , right ? kelly : yeah , and lucky me . i get to count on you that you 're not going to blow the truth the next time you panic . paul : no , kelly , i wo n't . all right ? i wo n't . i -- i just -- maybe i -- i want people to start thinking better of me . kelly : hmm . people like natalie ? paul : listen , she -- she 's an amazing girl . i will keep any promise anytime , all right , just so she knows that i 'm a good person . kelly : wow , you must be in love . because that 's the only thing that changes people so completely -- love -- finding it and losing it . asa : why in the hell do you want todd manning 's baby ? kevin : to make manning suffer . kelly , too . asa : but you 're going to be reminded of him for the rest of your life . kevin : i 'm ok with that . asa : hold it , kevin . i already think you miss the little guy . kevin : do n't you ? i had plans for him , you know , made promises . i named him after you , for crying out loud . asa : right . i sure kind of liked that -- `` ace . `` hmm . kevin : i used to go up and sit at his crib at night when he was staying here , and i 'd talk to him , tell him i was going to coach his little league team and i was going to teach him how to ski in aspen . you know , all the things that i never did with duke . asa : who knows ? he may go into politics . kevin : hey , if that 's what he wants to do , why not ? i plan on coaching him , you know , make sure he does n't make the mistakes that i made . he 's certainly not going to fall in love with his brother 's wife or , you know , waste his time being angry with a guy like manning . and , you know , with your pull and mom 's knack with people , the whole world could be his . asa : are n't you forgetting something , kevin ? ace does not have buchanan blood . he 's got todd and dorian 's bloodlines in him . are you sure you want that for your son ? todd : honestly , i do n't know who ace 's father is . viki : really ? let me tell you something , it is not like you to help someone unless there 's something in it for you . now , if kelly had to lie about who ace 's father is , why did she pick you ? todd : maybe it 's because kevin hurt her so much , she 's trying to hurt him back . viki : do you believe that ? blair : viki , todd and i are happy now . kelly 's lie is her problem . he did not sleep with her . viki : i know that ! you know , i do n't understand you , either . why are you not livid with kelly for dragging your husband into this ? [ blair chuckles ] blair : i 'm very livid with kelly , and if you read somewhere that something happened to her , i did it . viki : then why are n't you doing something about it ? blair : todd , tell viki . tell her everything now . singer : you left this on my mind why did i even care at all ? adriana : oh ! no ! shannon : what was that ? river : oh , my god . adriana ? adriana : leave me alone ! river : what happened ? how did you know i was here ? adriana : your father told me ! do n't touch me ! river : where -- where have you been ? i 've been calling forever ! adriana : in puerto rico , hiding from my father 's family . river : what ? adriana : they said it was too dangerous for me to be here , and i could n't make any phone calls . river : no -- no , if i had known that , i -- adriana : what , you would 've started sleeping with other girls sooner ? river : no . no , let me explain this , please . please , just give me one -- adriana : leave me alone , ok ? i ca n't be with you . river : no . sonia : hey . tico : thanks for coming so fast . sonia : are you ok , sweetie ? you sound so worried . tico : yeah . antonio does n't trust me . i 'm not staying here . sonia : well , did he tell you to go ? tico : well , he 's testing my d.n.a . sonia : ok , do n't worry . just -- just tell me what 's going on with antonio and jessica . he said they 'd broken up . tico : that was just to go undercover , remember ? sonia : it might have been undercover , but when he kissed me , he liked it . tico : the way jessica looks at him and the way antonio talks about him , anything that happened between you had to be an act . jessica : so , what are we going to do if this guy is n't tico ? antonio : well , i do n't know . i do n't know , but if he 's not who he says he is , i want to find out what kind of scam he 's trying to pull . jessica : he just seems so sincere , you know ? antonio : you really like him , do n't you ? jessica : well , i do n't know him , antonio . it 's just -- i do n't know , i guess i just -- i feel bad for him -- when i found him in that vault , and i guess i also kind of feel responsible for him . antonio : hmm . trust me , tico can take care of himself -- if he 's tico . jessica : well , i just think that llanview 's the safest place for him right now . john : hey . i got your verdict . antonio : did you read it ? john : i thought you should be the first to know . antonio : well , he 's definitely manuel santi 's son . jessica : well , congratulations . you have a new cousin . antonio : yeah . yeah , i guess i do . jessica : well , that 's a good thing , is n't it ? antonio : i wish i knew . viki : thank you very much . i do n't really want anything . i just want you to talk to me , please . i mean , obviously , you 're keeping some sort of a secret for kelly , right -- who the father is . todd : this is tricky because , you know , i do n't want to lie . viki : well , that 's commendable . todd : and i do n't want to , you know , tell the truth if it 's only going to serve me . viki : you know what ? i 'm at my wits ' end here . blair : why ? viki : because my son kevin -- i have seen him do things that are so completely unlike him . he coldly rejected a baby that he has loved from the second he laid eyes on him . he attacked todd viciously , violently ! he 's completely changed . he 's doing things that are unlike him . blair : sorry . viki : kelly is waving todd in front of kevin like a red flag in front of a bull . no one will tell me why ! todd : it 'll work itself out . i want to keep my word , however . viki : `` it 's going to work itself out `` ? well , i do n't have time to wait for that . my son is desperately unhappy , and it is all because of some lie ! and it is causing him to do things that are practically unforgivable . i can not stand seeing him like that , and if you two wo n't give me any answers , i 'm going to go somewhere where i will get them . blair : well , viki , just -- kelly : well , i have the vase that you wanted . although , i do n't know why you 're salvaging those things . paul : kelly , i want to make it up to you and kevin . kelly : how ? paul : i 'll go to kevin . i 'll tell him that i wrote the notes saying that todd was ace 's father . kelly : and you did this because -- paul : well , the truth -- all right , i was desperate for money , so i did something stupid . i made it up off the top of my head . kelly : how are you going to explain why i went along with it ? paul : i do n't know . to make him jealous . and now you see how hurt kevin is , and you do n't want a divorce . kelly : no . just leave him alone . it 's better that he 's so mad at todd that he 's not thinking about d.n.a . paul : so you 'd rather lose kevin than lose the baby ? kelly : i did n't want to lose anyone . but kevin is -- he 's so angry . he 's twisted up with anger . i mean , maybe ace and i are better off without him . paul : kelly , you 're crazy about him . i mean , that 's why i got you the baby , so you would n't lose him . kelly : i know , but ace loves me like kevin never did . he loves me unconditionally , and we 're not going to let each other down . paul : that sounds good . kelly : i hate to think how alike we are . i really hate to think about it . i mean , if you 're falling for natalie the way i fell for kevin , i hope she can handle being loved by a cramer . jessica : hey . natalie : hey . jessica : something wrong ? natalie : no . just came to get my passport . jessica : oh . i guess that means that you 're going to be traveling somewhere with paul . natalie : i guess i better let you know -- paul and i are going to be moving in together . that bother you ? jessica : well , no , not if nothing goes wrong . natalie : but you 're assuming that it will ? jessica : have you ever known paul not to be in trouble ? natalie : well , he 's not in trouble now . jessica : i 'm just concerned that you 're going to have to justify some crime , and he 's not -- natalie : oh , my god . what is it with you good people ? i mean , first , it was antonio last night saying how cristian 's looking down on me , and now you with the mom 's concerned speech . jessica : natalie , i 'm not trying to -- natalie : no ! you know what ? ok , fine . paul and i might not be the perfect couple that you and antonio are , and my plans in life may not be to run the newspaper and get some award -- jessica : yeah , exactly . natalie , do you have any plans for the future ? i 'm sorry , i do n't mean to be harsh or anything , but it just seems to me like you 're letting a guy make all the decisions for you , and that 's really just not like you at all . natalie : tell you what -- why do n't you take a good look at your own life before analyzing mine ? jessica : my life 's fine , natalie . natalie : is it ? jessica : well , you just told me that i 'm the other half of a perfect couple . natalie : right , and what about this whole antonio thing ? i mean , the way he dumped you and all of that . i mean , talk about a guy calling the shots for you . jessica : natalie , he was working undercover , ok , and i knew that he was n't going to break up with me . natalie : right . but you were scared , and you 're still afraid . you 're afraid that he 's going to be more interested in his newfound family . i 've taken a very hard look at my life . i have nothing to lose , not anymore . so you know what ? i have nothing to be afraid of . i got to go . kevin : with us looking out for ace , he 's going to be a buchanan in every way . does n't matter what kind of blood 's in him . i was adopted . look at me . asa : right . now , you really think that keeping the boy 's the right thing to do ? kevin : you tried to teach me in life that it 's about taking the battle to the enemy . you do n't negotiate , you retaliate . asa : in business , yes . kevin : well , what 's the worst thing i can do to him ? huh ? i 'm going to make b.e . the most powerful company in the world . and i 'm going to take the paper from todd , and i 'm going to divorce kelly . and then i 'm going to take ace . it 's what i refer to as a winner - take - all strategy . asa : that 's a mighty big agenda , boy . you got enough fire in your belly for all that ? kevin : well , big 's how buchanans do things , right ? i 'm going to be your heir in every way . ace is going to be mine . asa : well , you 're going to make a lot of enemies . kevin : i 'm going to tell you what i 'm going to tell everyone else in the family , grandpa -- you 're either with me or against me . what 's it going to be ? [ doorbell rings ] kevin : excuse me . tico : the way jessica and antonio look at each other , i mean -- sonia : hey , who 's in love with her -- antonio or you ? tico : i 'm just warning you -- he 's not looking for anyone . sonia : i can make this happen , tico . tico : you 're that confident ? sonia : i 'm that good . besides , we had a connection . tico : what kind of connection ? antonio : sonia . jessica : look who 's come . tico : i want you to meet my foster sister , sonia . jessica : um -- we 've met . sonia : it 's nice to see you again , sweetie . slightly different circumstances this time . jessica : yeah , slightly . tico : well ? antonio : well , you 're definitely manuel santi 's son . tico : ever since i heard about my father , and especially after he was murdered , sonia and i have been trying to figure out what to do . you know , finally being here , being safe , knowing our new family -- antonio : means a lot . i know . tico : yeah . more than you can say . right , sonia ? sonia : absolutely . it 's just so nice to be surrounded by people that we can really trust . and that 's what family 's about , right ? jessica : trust . tico : yeah , i just want our lives to be normal again so that we can meet our new family . i mean , there 's not a problem there , is there ? paul : kelly , i wo n't be any more problems . all right , if you need anything , i can -- kelly : hey ! when did you get back from puerto rico ? adriana : what does it matter ? kelly : whoa , whoa , whoa . is everything ok ? what happened ? adriana : i just -- i found shannon mcbain and river -- never mind . i 'm so stupid . paul : oh . poor girl . looks like she 's having mcbain problems , too . kelly : yeah , i thought she and river were -- ugh , of course . we all want to fall in love until we do . paul : hey , come on . that 's a little harsh . kelly : if you know what 's good for you , you 'll enjoy natalie , but keep your heart to yourself . paul : no , no , see , you 've got everything reversed . i 'm going to put everything on the table . that way she has no surprises -- not like you and kevin . kelly : i think it 's time for you to go . oh , wait , wait , wait , wait , wait . i do n't know where you got ace , but i know it was n't exactly legal . paul : well , you do n't know anything , so it 's better that way . kelly : if you tell anyone anything -- i mean anything -- i will make sure that you go to prison . are we clear ? paul : i guess this means you 're not going to help me find a job , huh ? kelly : i 'm afraid you 're on your own . we may be related , but ace is the only family i have right now . kevin : what do you want ? viki : kevin , honey -- look , i came here to tell you that todd is not ace 's father . kevin : oh , since when ? since i told kelly i 'm divorcing her ? viki : honey , i do n't know why kelly would fashion a lie like this , but she has . she 's lying to you about ace . kevin : well , practice makes perfect . what , did she have you come over here to lie about the lie ? viki : no , nobody had me come over . i 'm here because i know that todd is not the father . kevin : well , then who is ? viki : i do n't know that . kevin : oh -- viki : and i do n't know why kelly is doing this , but , honey , you have to go and find out the whole story . i mean , do n't be so quick to hate the whole world . kevin : you know what , mom ? forgiveness is overrated . it just prolongs the mess . viki : oh , kevin , do n't say -- darling , i 'm sorry that i spoke so sharply to you the other day . really , i am . i love you , sweetheart , and you know that . it 's just horrible for me to have to watch you lashing out at everyone . kevin : what , you do n't think that i have a reason ? viki : yes , you have a reason , but , sweetheart , lashing out does not help ! kevin : right . right , i -- i have to remember my manners , mom . viki : do n't let that little boy out of your life just to get even with todd . kevin : oh , i 'm not letting ace out of my life . viki : you 're not ? well , that 's good . kevin : yeah , yeah . i 'm -- i 'm suing kelly for full custody . viki : you 're what ? kevin : yeah , i 'm taking the baby away . i 'm going to raise him myself . viki : kevin , kevin , that is not good for anyone . kevin : well , it works for me . viki : why are you doing this ? you doing this because you love the baby , or you just want to hurt kelly and todd ? blair : oh , damn it . todd : oh . blair : ugh ! todd : kelly 's really putting the spurs to you , is n't she ? blair : the same as she 's doing to you . you know , todd , who wants to live with the guilt of being the one to make her lose her baby ? todd : or her marbles . i know . besides , i do n't know if i can let viki stew like this . blair : well , it ca n't be good for her heart , todd . todd : i do n't like kevin . blair : yep . todd : i can stand to see him suffer . i ca n't stand to see viki suffer . blair : you going to put an end to all this ? todd : do you want me to ? ok , i 'll do it . sonia : so , this is the real you . antonio : look , i 'm sorry i was forced to lead you on . sonia : hmm . i thought i was leading you on . it 's really jessica i owe the apology to . i 'm sorry . i thought he was fair game . jessica : yeah , that was the idea . sonia : well , you know , strippers come and go . this one was better than a lover . he led me to my tico . tico : which led us to a whole new family here in llanview . sonia : i 'm really sorry if we did anything to hurt you . jessica : thank you . shannon : hey , you got a minute ? john : yeah . sure . you want to have a seat ? but , wait , who 's holding the ladder down at the community center ? shannon : the project 's in furlough . we had some vandalism happen last night . john : right . just kids . they 'll get that case closed quickly . shannon : well , you know , maybe you should n't rush it . you should , like , save some manpower , you know , shut the stupid thing down . john : not going to happen . you 'll be back at work in no time . shannon : great . john : what 's wrong ? shannon : john , i just ca n't go back there . john : why ? what , you want to play 20 questions like when you were a kid ? ok . bigger than a breadbasket ? anything to do with river carpenter ? shannon : how do you know about that ? john : hmm . well , it 's sort of what i do . when adriana went missing , i went and talked to your buddy rex , and he said that he had a little plan with you to break her and river up . shannon : it was supposed to be fun . i was just , like , going to shake things up with him , and -- john : looks like you got a little shook up yourself , kid . shannon : well , i mean , we hooked up , and she was supposed to be gone . she was n't coming back . john : but now she is . shannon : she found us at the quarry . i mean we were together , and then he saw her and he took off , and he never even , like , looked back at me . i deserve this , do n't i ? john : nah , no one deserves this . shh . paul : so john mcbain said he 'd leave us alone , huh ? natalie : yeah . he said if moving in works out , then good for me . paul : well , you 're ok with that ? natalie : what ? paul : well , no , it just surprises the hell out of me . i mean , he 's given up on you . natalie : yeah , well , he 's got other things on his mind . so how do i it work out with kelly ? paul : not so good . natalie : she -- she wo n't give her own brother a job ? what is the deal with the two of you ? paul : i do n't know . it 's old news to me , but i guess kelly likes to hold a grudge . natalie : sorry . paul : you know , it 's not like i 'm losing my best friend or something , you know ? i mean , i just thought that my sister would like to make up . natalie : yeah . well , sisters think they know you so well that they think they get a vote . paul : why , is yours hassling you ? natalie : she was just -- jess was preaching to me , and then i preached back to her , and neither one of us liked what either one had to say . paul : oh , right , right . let me guess -- it was because of me , huh ? she 's got her standards . natalie : like i said , she does n't get a vote , and how right was i about this place ? how wonderful is it ? paul : listen , natalie , if you need me to talk to your sister , i will , ok ? i mean , you do n't need to be taking flak for me . natalie : forget it . see this rock over here ? paul : yeah ? what ? what are you doing ? natalie , be -- why do n't you -- be careful , all right ? listen , natalie , why do n't you come down from there , ok ? come on . [ splash ] paul : oh , my god . natalie ! tico : nice apology to jessica . sonia : i can do polite . tico : yeah . i did n't buy a word of it . sonia : as long as she bought it -- and antonio . tico : you know , he 's not that trusting . he 's worked the streets . sonia : well , not trusting me will keep him interested . she 's too easy for him . that 's why he 'll spend his time thinking about me . jessica : does she have to come by here ? antonio : well , it is her brother . but he 's moving to the palace . jessica : i was just hoping that you would n't have to work on her case anymore . antonio : no , i do n't . but she is tico 's foster sister . jessica : sonia 's not really family . i mean , not really . antonio : sonia who ? tico : sorry . john : you sure you 're going to be ok ? shannon : i 'm always ok . john : yeah , sooner or later . shannon : river 's not a big deal . john : ok . hey , look , i know less about relationships than , say , anyone on the planet . but i do know this -- if you go after someone and they 're with someone else , there 's a pretty good chance it 's going to end up badly . shannon : so are you trying to say that i 'm a sucker ? john : that or it 's just a safe way to actually never get close to someone . shannon : hmm . a bit of psychology . i guess you 'd know since you were always hiding behind caitlin . john : lay off caitlin . shannon : john , blow out the torch . make it work with someone , and then we 'll talk about my problems . natalie : i 'm ok . paul : what the hell are you trying to do , huh ? you scared me half to death ! natalie : i mean , i 'm usually a good swimmer . paul : oh , god ! natalie : i just think i hit the water a little too hard . paul : oh , yeah ! yeah , i thought you knocked yourself out . oh ! natalie : i thought you were a risk taker . paul : yeah , but with me , all right , but not with you . good lord . natalie : you were scared for me . paul : listen , when you went under , i thought i 'd lost you , my whole life flashed before my eyes , and without you , there 's not that much . kelly : we 're almost there , ace . your mommy and your great - aunt dorian took care of blair this afternoon , and now even paul has to keep our secret . all we have to do is wait for kevin to divorce us . he can just throw us away . then you can be my own little man forever . [ ace fusses ] kelly : yeah ? kevin : all right , do n't do anything until i give you the ok . all right . viki : you have n't answered my question , kevin . kevin : so , what , if i tell you that i really love ace , will that send you home happy ? viki : if you really love ace , then you will do what is best for him , not for you . and what 's best for him is knowing his mother . kevin : well , you believe what you want to believe , all right ? kelly made that baby with todd behind my back . she does n't deserve to celebrate that . i 'm going to teach that baby to hate her . viki : kevin -- kevin : and you can call it whatever you want . you can say it 's mean , you can say it 's vindictive , but i call it justice . viki : kevin , do n't do this , please . blair : just hold up a minute . are you sure that you want to do this ? todd : you want me to , do n't you ? besides , what if i get the call in to testify about our affair ? blair : it 's just -- ace is all kelly has right now , and i 'm worried that -- well , i 'm worried what 's going to happen to her if she loses him . todd : do you really think she 'll lose her mind ? blair : look , it runs in our family , and it 's not funny . my mother , her mother . i just -- if we 're going to drop the bomb , i just want to make sure she can survive it . todd : ok . i guess a little while longer wo n't hurt . blair : well , you 're going to have to deal with kevin 's obsession a little while longer . todd : i would n't worry about kevin . blair : hmm . todd : if he comes after us , he wo n't know what hit him . stay tuned for scenes from the next `` one life to live . `` . [ next_on ] john : i 'm here about the vandalism at the construction site . they want me to rule out all of you . evangeline : i 'm not with john mcbain . i do n't know how to communicate that to you . david : i heard todd 's sniffing around to buy `` craze . `` there 's no way i 'm working for that guy . kevin : wait a minute -- todd ?
viki questions todd and blair about ace , but todd insists this problem with eventually work itself out . viki then goes to kevin , and he informs her he 's going for full custody , and will teach ace to hate kelly . viki is horrified , and tries to reason with kevin , and to do what is best for ace . asa asks kevin if he really wants to raise todd 's son , but kevin is adamant . paul tries to make peace with kelly and apologize . kelly just asks him to continue to keep her secret . todd and blair decide to tell viki the entire truth , but later reconsider . adriana discovers shannon and river at the quarry , and is devastated . shannon turns to john when river runs after adriana . adriana tells river she never wants to see him again . the dna test confirm tico is a santi , but antonio still does n't fully trust tico . sonia is determined to have antonio all to herself .
<s>[INST] tico : antonio , you helped me out in puerto rico . now you offer to let me stay here while i meet the rest of my family , but i sense that you have a problem with me . am i right ? antonio : it 's just a reflex . i 'm a cop . i have to be careful of my family . tico : even with your family ? oh , i see , just because jessica found me chained up in the santi vault does n't mean i 'm ok . i could 've chained up myself , then , just try to fake you out . antonio : it 's nothing personal . tico : well , is there anything i can do to earn your trust ? antonio : it 's done . your d.n.a . 's being tested . tico : how ? antonio : jessica gave me a bandana with your blood on it . the results just came in . john : how are you ? natalie : great . i think i left my passport here when you dragged paul and david and myself away from puerto rico for that 419 . john : no , that would be a 417 . natalie : whatever . paul said it was bogus anyway . john : well , as usual , paul would be wrong . 417 is a legitimate charge -- fleeing f.b.i . custody . technically , you could 've been charged , too , natalie . natalie : excuse me , i was n't in custody . john : once you went searching for that santi vault , that 's a conspiracy to fraud the government out of impoundable drug money . natalie : my god , you can be such a buzz kill . john : i know . i 've been told that before . but you are lucky you were n't charged , natalie . natalie : fine , whatever . listen , is there any sort of law against paul and i moving in together ? because that 's exactly what i plan on doing . kelly : what 's this ? paul : it 's a peace offering . kelly : where did you steal them ? paul : listen , natalie and i are moving in together and kind of wanted to start fresh , you know , so , can we forgive and forget ? kelly : yeah , i do n't think so . paul : listen , kelly , i do n't want to have to remind you , but if it was n't for me , you would n't have ace . kelly : paul , you would n't know anything about these anonymous letters that kevin receives , saying that todd is ace 's father -- you know anything about that ? you realize he 's divorcing me because of it ? paul : well -- divorce ? i 'm sorry , but -- kelly : i do n't know how you could possibly do something like that , you disgusting little rat ! paul : kelly -- kelly : you almost destroyed my life ! paul : all right , all right . kevin : now , todd can hack into our system only once , scramble our accounts , but he 's not going to beat me . not now , not ever . asa : i 'm glad to see you back on your feet . kevin : why would n't i be ? asa : well , for one , you got arrested for drunk driving . then you tangled with kelly at the police station . some folks are worried that you 're , you know , kind of losing it . kevin : well , do n't worry . i 'm handling kelly , too . asa : good . so , what 's your plan ? kevin : well , you always said that the best defense is a good offense . so i 'm going to fight for custody of ace , and when i 'm through , kelly and todd are never going to see him again . todd : the kids are playing computer games . blair : well , i am sorry i stood you up . todd : yeah ? we missed you . blair : well , believe me , i 'd much rather be at the park having a picnic with my family , but -- todd : where were you ? blair : dorian and kelly ambushed me to keep my mouth shut about ace . todd : look , whatever you want to do about that -- [ doorbell rings ] todd : hold on . viki : may i come in , please ? todd : sure . viki : hi , blair . blair : hi , viki . you look pretty . viki : thank you . todd : you ok ? viki : no , i 'm not ok . todd : you do n't -- you do n't look so great . viki : no . todd : how 's your heart ? viki : my heart is fine . i 'm not fine , ok ? look , this lie of kelly 's has affected my son kevin so much . it has changed him completely , and i ca n't get through to him anymore . todd : i 'm not the guy who can help you with that . viki : well , i think you are , and i think you can help me , too . blair : ok , well , what can we do , viki ? viki : you can tell me the truth ! todd , if you 're not ace 's father , then who is ? and why in god 's name is kelly telling kevin that she betrayed him with you , his worst enemy , when it 's not true ? blair : well , i think you 're going to have to handle this one , todd . viki : will you please tell me the truth ? there are so many lives at stake here ! singer : you never gave me room adriana : river ? singer : inside this place and now i 'm joking from the autumn that i face no one to save me now john : natalie , last time i checked , there 's no law against cohabitation . i believe this is yours . natalie : thanks , john . well , i 'm sure you will find one . john : you two kids stay out of trouble , and you wo n't be getting any hassles from me . i hope you wo n't mind if i challenge you to the odd game of pool . natalie : oh , well , you are a mile away . i guess the rumors are true . john : what rumors ? natalie : that you 're finally moving on . john : moving on ? i do n't even know what that means . natalie : with evangeline williamson ? kelly : you completely destroyed my marriage ! paul : kelly , some things went wrong . all the -- kelly : what on earth were you thinking ? paul : i 'm sorry , ok ? i -- i thought that , you know , hinting that todd was ace 's father , that kevin would , you know , pay for some information , but he did n't take the bait . kelly : you are such an idiot . why would he pay for that kind of information , huh ? he would just get a blood test , and then he 'd find out that i was n't ace 's biological mother , either ! paul : i was n't thinking that far ahead . kelly : obviously . you know , you left me no other choice . i had to tell kevin that his worst enemy is ace 's father . paul : right . kelly : did you ever once think about what this is going to do to me ? how it was going to ruin my life ? paul : what about me ? all right , you 're the one that turned me in to john mcbain for a murder i did n't commit ! kelly : because i wanted you in police custody ! i did n't want you to get killed ! paul : oh -- oh , great ! well , thank you , kelly . now i 'm john mcbain 's personal hobby . wonderful . look , i know . i 'm sorry , ok ? it was lousy for me to send those letters . kelly : well , i 've already lost kevin . at least i have n't lost ace , too . paul : he 's the only thing that matters now , right ? kelly : yeah , and lucky me . i get to count on you that you 're not going to blow the truth the next time you panic . paul : no , kelly , i wo n't . all right ? i wo n't . i -- i just -- maybe i -- i want people to start thinking better of me . kelly : hmm . people like natalie ? paul : listen , she -- she 's an amazing girl . i will keep any promise anytime , all right , just so she knows that i 'm a good person . kelly : wow , you must be in love . because that 's the only thing that changes people so completely -- love -- finding it and losing it . asa : why in the hell do you want todd manning 's baby ? kevin : to make manning suffer . kelly , too . asa : but you 're going to be reminded of him for the rest of your life . kevin : i 'm ok with that . asa : hold it , kevin . i already think you miss the little guy . kevin : do n't you ? i had plans for him , you know , made promises . i named him after you , for crying out loud . asa : right . i sure kind of liked that -- `` ace . `` hmm . kevin : i used to go up and sit at his crib at night when he was staying here , and i 'd talk to him , tell him i was going to coach his little league team and i was going to teach him how to ski in aspen . you know , all the things that i never did with duke . asa : who knows ? he may go into politics . kevin : hey , if that 's what he wants to do , why not ? i plan on coaching him , you know , make sure he does n't make the mistakes that i made . he 's certainly not going to fall in love with his brother 's wife or , you know , waste his time being angry with a guy like manning . and , you know , with your pull and mom 's knack with people , the whole world could be his . asa : are n't you forgetting something , kevin ? ace does not have buchanan blood . he 's got todd and dorian 's bloodlines in him . are you sure you want that for your son ? todd : honestly , i do n't know who ace 's father is . viki : really ? let me tell you something , it is not like you to help someone unless there 's something in it for you . now , if kelly had to lie about who ace 's father is , why did she pick you ? todd : maybe it 's because kevin hurt her so much , she 's trying to hurt him back . viki : do you believe that ? blair : viki , todd and i are happy now . kelly 's lie is her problem . he did not sleep with her . viki : i know that ! you know , i do n't understand you , either . why are you not livid with kelly for dragging your husband into this ? [ blair chuckles ] blair : i 'm very livid with kelly , and if you read somewhere that something happened to her , i did it . viki : then why are n't you doing something about it ? blair : todd , tell viki . tell her everything now . singer : you left this on my mind why did i even care at all ? adriana : oh ! no ! shannon : what was that ? river : oh , my god . adriana ? adriana : leave me alone ! river : what happened ? how did you know i was here ? adriana : your father told me ! do n't touch me ! river : where -- where have you been ? i 've been calling forever ! adriana : in puerto rico , hiding from my father 's family . river : what ? adriana : they said it was too dangerous for me to be here , and i could n't make any phone calls . river : no -- no , if i had known that , i -- adriana : what , you would 've started sleeping with other girls sooner ? river : no . no , let me explain this , please . please , just give me one -- adriana : leave me alone , ok ? i ca n't be with you . river : no . sonia : hey . tico : thanks for coming so fast . sonia : are you ok , sweetie ? you sound so worried . tico : yeah . antonio does n't trust me . i 'm not staying here . sonia : well , did he tell you to go ? tico : well , he 's testing my d.n.a . sonia : ok , do n't worry . just -- just tell me what 's going on with antonio and jessica . he said they 'd broken up . tico : that was just to go undercover , remember ? sonia : it might have been undercover , but when he kissed me , he liked it . tico : the way jessica looks at him and the way antonio talks about him , anything that happened between you had to be an act . jessica : so , what are we going to do if this guy is n't tico ? antonio : well , i do n't know . i do n't know , but if he 's not who he says he is , i want to find out what kind of scam he 's trying to pull . jessica : he just seems so sincere , you know ? antonio : you really like him , do n't you ? jessica : well , i do n't know him , antonio . it 's just -- i do n't know , i guess i just -- i feel bad for him -- when i found him in that vault , and i guess i also kind of feel responsible for him . antonio : hmm . trust me , tico can take care of himself -- if he 's tico . jessica : well , i just think that llanview 's the safest place for him right now . john : hey . i got your verdict . antonio : did you read it ? john : i thought you should be the first to know . antonio : well , he 's definitely manuel santi 's son . jessica : well , congratulations . you have a new cousin . antonio : yeah . yeah , i guess i do . jessica : well , that 's a good thing , is n't it ? antonio : i wish i knew . viki : thank you very much . i do n't really want anything . i just want you to talk to me , please . i mean , obviously , you 're keeping some sort of a secret for kelly , right -- who the father is . todd : this is tricky because , you know , i do n't want to lie . viki : well , that 's commendable . todd : and i do n't want to , you know , tell the truth if it 's only going to serve me . viki : you know what ? i 'm at my wits ' end here . blair : why ? viki : because my son kevin -- i have seen him do things that are so completely unlike him . he coldly rejected a baby that he has loved from the second he laid eyes on him . he attacked todd viciously , violently ! he 's completely changed . he 's doing things that are unlike him . blair : sorry . viki : kelly is waving todd in front of kevin like a red flag in front of a bull . no one will tell me why ! todd : it 'll work itself out . i want to keep my word , however . viki : `` it 's going to work itself out `` ? well , i do n't have time to wait for that . my son is desperately unhappy , and it is all because of some lie ! and it is causing him to do things that are practically unforgivable . i can not stand seeing him like that , and if you two wo n't give me any answers , i 'm going to go somewhere where i will get them . blair : well , viki , just -- kelly : well , i have the vase that you wanted . although , i do n't know why you 're salvaging those things . paul : kelly , i want to make it up to you and kevin . kelly : how ? paul : i 'll go to kevin . i 'll tell him that i wrote the notes saying that todd was ace 's father . kelly : and you did this because -- paul : well , the truth -- all right , i was desperate for money , so i did something stupid . i made it up off the top of my head . kelly : how are you going to explain why i went along with it ? paul : i do n't know . to make him jealous . and now you see how hurt kevin is , and you do n't want a divorce . kelly : no . just leave him alone . it 's better that he 's so mad at todd that he 's not thinking about d.n.a . paul : so you 'd rather lose kevin than lose the baby ? kelly : i did n't want to lose anyone . but kevin is -- he 's so angry . he 's twisted up with anger . i mean , maybe ace and i are better off without him . paul : kelly , you 're crazy about him . i mean , that 's why i got you the baby , so you would n't lose him . kelly : i know , but ace loves me like kevin never did . he loves me unconditionally , and we 're not going to let each other down . paul : that sounds good . kelly : i hate to think how alike we are . i really hate to think about it . i mean , if you 're falling for natalie the way i fell for kevin , i hope she can handle being loved by a cramer . jessica : hey . natalie : hey . jessica : something wrong ? natalie : no . just came to get my passport . jessica : oh . i guess that means that you 're going to be traveling somewhere with paul . natalie : i guess i better let you know -- paul and i are going to be moving in together . that bother you ? jessica : well , no , not if nothing goes wrong . natalie : but you 're assuming that it will ? jessica : have you ever known paul not to be in trouble ? natalie : well , he 's not in trouble now . jessica : i 'm just concerned that you 're going to have to justify some crime , and he 's not -- natalie : oh , my god . what is it with you good people ? i mean , first , it was antonio last night saying how cristian 's looking down on me , and now you with the mom 's concerned speech . jessica : natalie , i 'm not trying to -- natalie : no ! you know what ? ok , fine . paul and i might not be the perfect couple that you and antonio are , and my plans in life may not be to run the newspaper and get some award -- jessica : yeah , exactly . natalie , do you have any plans for the future ? i 'm sorry , i do n't mean to be harsh or anything , but it just seems to me like you 're letting a guy make all the decisions for you , and that 's really just not like you at all . natalie : tell you what -- why do n't you take a good look at your own life before analyzing mine ? jessica : my life 's fine , natalie . natalie : is it ? jessica : well , you just told me that i 'm the other half of a perfect couple . natalie : right , and what about this whole antonio thing ? i mean , the way he dumped you and all of that . i mean , talk about a guy calling the shots for you . jessica : natalie , he was working undercover , ok , and i knew that he was n't going to break up with me . natalie : right . but you were scared , and you 're still afraid . you 're afraid that he 's going to be more interested in his newfound family . i 've taken a very hard look at my life . i have nothing to lose , not anymore . so you know what ? i have nothing to be afraid of . i got to go . kevin : with us looking out for ace , he 's going to be a buchanan in every way . does n't matter what kind of blood 's in him . i was adopted . look at me . asa : right . now , you really think that keeping the boy 's the right thing to do ? kevin : you tried to teach me in life that it 's about taking the battle to the enemy . you do n't negotiate , you retaliate . asa : in business , yes . kevin : well , what 's the worst thing i can do to him ? huh ? i 'm going to make b.e . the most powerful company in the world . and i 'm going to take the paper from todd , and i 'm going to divorce kelly . and then i 'm going to take ace . it 's what i refer to as a winner - take - all strategy . asa : that 's a mighty big agenda , boy . you got enough fire in your belly for all that ? kevin : well , big 's how buchanans do things , right ? i 'm going to be your heir in every way . ace is going to be mine . asa : well , you 're going to make a lot of enemies . kevin : i 'm going to tell you what i 'm going to tell everyone else in the family , grandpa -- you 're either with me or against me . what 's it going to be ? [ doorbell rings ] kevin : excuse me . tico : the way jessica and antonio look at each other , i mean -- sonia : hey , who 's in love with her -- antonio or you ? tico : i 'm just warning you -- he 's not looking for anyone . sonia : i can make this happen , tico . tico : you 're that confident ? sonia : i 'm that good . besides , we had a connection . tico : what kind of connection ? antonio : sonia . jessica : look who 's come . tico : i want you to meet my foster sister , sonia . jessica : um -- we 've met . sonia : it 's nice to see you again , sweetie . slightly different circumstances this time . jessica : yeah , slightly . tico : well ? antonio : well , you 're definitely manuel santi 's son . tico : ever since i heard about my father , and especially after he was murdered , sonia and i have been trying to figure out what to do . you know , finally being here , being safe , knowing our new family -- antonio : means a lot . i know . tico : yeah . more than you can say . right , sonia ?

paul : i guess this means you 're not going to help me find a job , huh ? kelly : i 'm afraid you 're on your own . we may be related , but ace is the only family i have right now . kevin : what do you want ? viki : kevin , honey -- look , i came here to tell you that todd is not ace 's father . kevin : oh , since when ? since i told kelly i 'm divorcing her ? viki : honey , i do n't know why kelly would fashion a lie like this , but she has . she 's lying to you about ace . kevin : well , practice makes perfect . what , did she have you come over here to lie about the lie ? viki : no , nobody had me come over . i 'm here because i know that todd is not the father . kevin : well , then who is ? viki : i do n't know that . kevin : oh -- viki : and i do n't know why kelly is doing this , but , honey , you have to go and find out the whole story . i mean , do n't be so quick to hate the whole world . kevin : you know what , mom ? forgiveness is overrated . it just prolongs the mess . viki : oh , kevin , do n't say -- darling , i 'm sorry that i spoke so sharply to you the other day . really , i am . i love you , sweetheart , and you know that . it 's just horrible for me to have to watch you lashing out at everyone . kevin : what , you do n't think that i have a reason ? viki : yes , you have a reason , but , sweetheart , lashing out does not help ! kevin : right . right , i -- i have to remember my manners , mom . viki : do n't let that little boy out of your life just to get even with todd . kevin : oh , i 'm not letting ace out of my life . viki : you 're not ?

paul : not so good . natalie : she -- she wo n't give her own brother a job ? what is the deal with the two of you ? paul : i do n't know . it 's old news to me , but i guess kelly likes to hold a grudge . natalie : sorry . paul : you know , it 's not like i 'm losing my best friend or something , you know ? i mean , i just thought that my sister would like to make up . natalie : yeah . well , sisters think they know you so well that they think they get a vote . paul : why , is yours hassling you ? natalie : she was just -- jess was preaching to me , and then i preached back to her , and neither one of us liked what either one had to say . paul : oh , right , right . let me guess -- it was because of me , huh ?

[ scene_break ] miguel : i have to convince you to marry me , kay . finding charity is the first step . i did it . i did it . i finally found charity . luis : something wrong with the stakeout ? officer : i 'm still waiting for burt to give me tonight 's confirmation code . burt , i need official confirmation that everything on your end is ok . over . { burt : yeah , this is burt . stakeout 's in place . officer 's in the house alone , i 'm standing guard outside . everything 's charlie - robert . } man : everything over here is charlie - robert . officer : 10 - 4 that . burt used tonight 's code . luis : good . must have been worried for nothing .

chad and jared are at the jewelers , picking out an engagement ring for theresa , while she 's in her office telling ethan she has no plans to marry jared now . chad is waiting for whitney to answer his ultimatum , but she 's not ready to commit just yet , as she still has trust issues . he realizes this , but wo n't give up his lover . ethan wanted theresa to dump jared based on the fact he knows the man is not a good guy , but she refused . she did offer to accept his fears as fact without proof if he would do the same about gwen and rebecca being the ones who outted him to jt cornell , but he wo n't do that . after arguing about it all for a while , they began kissing , just as jared was walking back into her office with ring in hand .
<s>[INST] jared : i got ta thank you again for helping me . chad : what are friends for ? jared : i am so excited right now . chad : yeah , you and every other dude shopping for an engagement ring . jared : i have n't even popped the question yet . chad : i hope your antiperspirant 's working . jared : yeah , that 's another thing to be worried about . chad : jared , jared , relax . it 's going to be ok . jared : were you this nervous when you asked whitney to marry you ? chad : which time ? we 've been engaged twice , and , to tell you the truth , i do n't think we 're going to make it to the altar this time either . jared : she still thinks you 're seeing someone else , huh ? chad : yeah , she says she needs a little time to get over all the doubts she has , so i gave her til christmas to marry me or we 're through . jared : that 's a pretty gutsy move , man . especially seeing that whitney is right and you are seeing someone else . [ scene_break ] theresa : chad has loved you since he first came to harmony . when he thought you were half - brother and sister , he never gave up on having a life with you . that does n't sound like a guy who would ever cheat on you . whitney : i never thought ethan would cheat on gwen , but he did . theresa : our situations are completely different . you 've got no proof that he 's ever been unfaithful to you . whitney : what about rebecca ? theresa : her accusations do n't count . you need to focus on chad 's love for you and for miles . whitney : i know i should do that . but neither one of us , we do n't always do what we should do . theresa : you 're right , but i 'm trying . you know , the more jared and i are together , the more i 'm convinced that he could be the man i want to spend the rest of my life with . ethan ! ethan : is it true ? theresa : is what true ? ethan : are you really going to marry jared ? [ scene_break ] kay : try on your maid of honor dress . simone : ok . is it too late to do it over in black flannel ? kay : what ? simone : i 'm just kidding . kay : oh ! hello ? miguel : kay , do n't hang up . kay : miguel , i told you , we 're finished . miguel : listen , what you said earlier about charity being back in the picture , it is n't true , and i 'm going to prove it . kay : that 's impossible . miguel : i 'll do anything not to lose you , kay . i 'm going to find charity and have her tell you that , that i love you and i want to be a family with you and maria . kay : miguel , you 've got to stop this . why wo n't you leave me alone like i asked you to ? miguel : because i love you , kay , and i 'm going to find charity and have her tell you that . kay : it 's not going to change anything . i 'm marrying fox , that 's it , end of story . i have to go . goodbye . simone : miguel is n't giving up on you is he ? kay : no , i ca n't believe he would actually think i would go back to him after i saw him having sex with her . miguel : charity , where are you ? [ scene_break ] luis : fancy , i know you 're bummed i nixed you from the stakeout tonight , but , seriously , peeping toms are n't just criminals that ca n't get a date . they can be seriously dangerous . i just do n't feel comfortable putting you in a situation like that until you 've graduated from the academy . fancy : i understand where you 're coming from , luis , but i really can take care of myself . luis : what was that ? fancy : what was what ? luis : sounded like you were loading a gun . fancy : yeah , i 'm just practicing gun safety . luis : you said you were wrapping christmas presents . fancy : i finished , and with my final firearm exam coming up -- luis : mmm hmm . alright , fancy , just keep in touch , ok ? fancy : yeah , about that , if you call and i do n't answer , it 's because i 'm out christmas shopping . luis : alright , well you be careful . there 's lots of grinches out there this time of year . fancy : i will be . i love you . luis : i love you , too . fancy : i hate lying to luis , but it 's not like everything i said was n't true . i will be careful , both burt and i will be . nothing bad is going to happen to either one of us . fancy : hey , burt , come in . can you hear me ? burt : loud and clear . fancy : how does it look out there ? burt : pretty quiet so far . fancy : i wonder how much longer we 'll have to wait for our perp to start peeping . burt : that 's the thing about stakeouts -- you never know . try staying close to the window . give the freak something to gawk at . fancy : if our peeping tom wants a show , then i 'll give him one . just keep your eyes open , ok ? burt : i will , do n't worry . fancy : here it goes . burt : wow . fancy : ok . i 'll pretend i 'm putting on a little show for luis . fancy : luis , you 're here . [ scene_break ] luis : well , it sounds to me like you 're making some headway with kay . miguel : yeah , well , i still do n't know what set her off at the shower . one thing i do know is she 's still hung up on charity . luis : yeah , it 's weird that she would think charity is back in the picture after all this time . miguel : i do n't get it either , you know , but i 'm hoping that if i find charity and have her tell kay that there 's nothing between us anymore , kay will end things with fox before the wedding . luis : makes sense . miguel : i need your help , though . look , i tried for nearly two years to find charity and came up empty - handed . i ca n't hope to look on my own this time . luis : well , i would love nothing more than to help you . miguel : ok , thank you . luis : so you know , though , i ca n't use police equipment for personal gain , ok ? miguel : you helped me before , luis . my future with kay is riding on this . luis : yeah , things are just a little bit different now . i 've been in a lot of trouble lately with fancy . if i give sam one more reason , there 's no way that he 's going to promote me to detective . miguel : ok . ok , fine . so , when i tell mama that the reason i could n't be a family with kay and maria was because my older brother did n't want to bend one little rule , you 're going to be cool with that ? luis : are you kidding me ? she 's gon na kill me . miguel : so , are you going to help me out ? luis : so you 're blackmailing a police officer ? miguel : i consider it twisting my brother 's arm . luis : sorry , man , i ca n't do it . miguel : ok . how about you just tell me what to do and i 'll do it ? luis : well , i guess that would be ok . miguel : ok . how do i start ? luis : now , i want you to know , the only reason that i 'm doing this is because you are my little brother and i want you to be as happy with kay as i am with fancy , ok ? miguel : thank you , luis . i have to prove to her that i 'm over charity so i can win her back . luis : here you go . [ scene_break ] kay : miguel must be following through on his little plan to act like nothing happened between him and charity . simone : oh , yeah , like we overheard them in the shed ? kay : yeah , and they decided that he was going to marry me because he wanted maria 's parents to be together . simone : only he 'd still keep seeing her on the side . kay : charity turned into such a skinny little tramp while she was gone . simone : did n't she , though ? kay : i 'm not going to let her win . simone : wait a minute . you told miguel that you were going to marry fox . so has n't charity already won ? kay : uh , i see what you 're saying . god , what did he expect me to do ? i could n't marry him knowing that he was going to cheat on me with her . simone : you still love him , do n't you ? kay : oh ! simone , i have loved him my whole life ! i 'm always going to love him . simone : kay . what if miguel came to you and owned up to sleeping with charity and how they planned to hook up even after you married him ? and he swore that he would never ever do it again ? would you forgive him ? is your love for him still that strong ? [ scene_break ] chad : yeah , i may be seeing someone on the sly , but it 's just sex . and you know i love whitney . she 's the woman i want to marry and spend the rest of my life with . jared : look , man , i 'm not passing judgments on your morals here . that 's for father lonigan and his boss . all i 'm saying is whitney 's convinced that you 're seeing another person . you want to marry this girl ? you 're going to have to convince her otherwise . chad : how ? jared : you stop cheating on her . woman : may i help you , gentlemen ? jared : yes . actually , i 'm looking for an engagement ring . woman : how sweet . you make a lovely couple . jared : no , it 's definitely not for him . it 's actually for the most beautiful , wonderful woman in the world . [ scene_break ] theresa : you ca n't barge in here and start grilling me about my personal life -- ethan : answer the question , all right ? theresa : well , you know jared and i are seeing each other . ethan : i know you 're seeing jared . everybody knows . the bastard is practically screaming it off the rooftops . theresa : he 's not a bastard . ethan : listen , just be honest with me . tell me , are you planning to marry this guy or what ? whitney : ok , let 's just all relax here . where did you come up with this , ethan ? ethan : i was talking to little ethan , actually . he tells me that he 's about to have a new daddy . theresa : uh -- when ? ethan : when ? earlier , at the book cafe , theresa . theresa : really ? ethan : do n't -- do n't play coy with me , all right ? jared obviously gave little ethan the distinct impression that you two were going to be married , and soon . theresa : um , jared told little ethan that we 're getting married ? i do n't know what to tell you . ethan : it 's true , is n't it ? you 're planning to marry jared , are n't you ? [ scene_break ] luis : press enter . ok , look at that . you are now in the main federal database . type in charity 's full name . hit search . see if you get a hit . miguel : it 's searching . luis : bro , be patient . it 's got ta search hundreds of millions of names . now , best - case scenario is if charity 's used a passport to get in or out of the country recently . miguel : yeah , if she did , then what ? luis : if she did , then we 'll track things like credit card usage , cell phone , things like that . miguel : this might actually work . luis : mm - hmm . i tell you , this system has been great for the department . miguel : why did i not have access to this type of technology when i was searching for charity ? i came so close to finding her so many times , and at the last minute , she always kept vanishing . one time , i even thought someone was out there trying to stop me from finding her . but i think it was just me being frustrated . she did n't want to be found , she obviously does n't love me anymore . luis : well , now you just have to convince kay of that . miguel : i know . god , if i can get kay back , i 'll be happy for the rest of my life . luis : ironic , is n't it ? a while ago , you were in love with charity , i was in love with sheridan , we both thought that we 'd never be happy unless we were with those women . miguel : we were so close to having it all . luis : well , you just wait . once you get kay back , once fancy graduates from the academy , well , let 's just say life is going to be good .

[ scene_break ] kay : to be fair , i was n't always honest with miguel . especially when it came to charity . my god , when lying did n't keep them apart , i did some really crazy , bad things . simone : yeah . tricking miguel into thinking you were charity to get pregnant certainly took some doing . kay : yeah . so it 's only right that i give him the chance to admit that he slept with charity and swear that he is finished with her for good . simone : and if he does that ? kay : i will forgive him . if i believe him . simone : well , how can miguel make you believe him ? kay : i have n't figured that part out yet .

listen to you . will you hear yourself ? i tell you you 're not a fit mother and what do you say ? i ca n't take your baby away ? you do n't care about her , do you ? all you care about is yourself . bonnie : sweetheart . lucas is a wonderful man . and he 's smitten already . baby bonnie 's gon na be just fine . mimi : stop calling her that ! it 's not her name , and she 's not your baby or lucas ' ! she 's mine ! bonnie : just please do n't tell him that . bonnie : you have to give me that baby , or mimi 's gon na kill me . lucas : what 's mimi got to do with this ? chloe : what were you going to say , mimi ? you said lucas was n't even ... and then you stopped . mimi : lucas is n't even one year sober . from what i hear , he went on like a six - month bender ! chloe : [ scoffs ] oh , yeah , what , this baby needs to be with someone stable like your mother , bonnie ? mimi : and he has other kids . chloe : yeah , who are , thankfully , teenagers , and no risk of being raised by that lying , scheming , slutty ex - con . lucas is doing what he needs to do to protect his daughter from her own mother . your mother . mimi : look . i know you and i did n't get along -- chloe : oh , i remember . mimi : but i thought we got past that . chloe : you 're kidding . mimi : and i know my mom is n't perfect -- chloe : well , i do n't know if `` is n't perfect `` summarizes it all . mimi : chloe . you 're a mother . you know what it means to hold a baby in your arms . those eyes that look back at you like you hung the moon . it 's like you 're their whole world and you can do no wrong even though you know that 's the furthest thing from the truth . a new baby is a second chance at your own life , another chance to get it right . you and lucas do n't want to take that away from someone . you do n't want to come between a little baby girl and her mother . please talk to lucas , get him to change his mind about this . chloe : you 're right , i am a mother , and if someone tried to take parker from me , i would die . mimi : so you 'll get him to change his mind ? chloe : sorry , mimi , i just -- i ca n't do that . and we 're not talking about any mother . we 're talking about bonnie lockhart . you 'd know , more than anybody , what kind of mother she is . mimi : well , i do n't think you 're in any position to judge . belle told me how you stole that baby from nicole . you even tried to breast feed the poor little thing , ugh , how sick is that ! chloe : okay , i can see that we have n't got past hating each other . now listen , i 'm not gon na be your victim anymore and i 'm not gon na let you bully me out of doing the right thing . and you 're not a mother , so you do n't understand . so i 'm not going to stand here and waste my time talking to you about this . i 'm gon na take this little girl back to her father where she belongs , and there 's nothing you can do about it . mimi : you 're wrong about that , ghoul girl . there is no way in hell you 're taking my kid . eve : so now brady knows exactly what we did . and the fact that i was trying to help does n't mean ... it does n't make a damn bit of difference to him because all he sees is me being the one who who made him lose tate . victor : why did you tell him anything at all ? eve : it was jennifer 's fault ! victor : i heard she told eric what brady did to nicole . eve : yeah , she opened her big , fat mouth and now a whole bunch of lives are starting to unravel . nicole : i have no clue about what you 're talking about . i hate kristen for what she did to eric . and i would n't spit on that woman if she were on fire . and i sure as hell would n't team up with that lunatic . sami : really ? then why did stefan dimera give me this address ? eric : sami , i want you to trust me . nicole is not living here with kristen . sami : really ? you do n't know that , eric -- eric : yes , i do . she 's living here with xander cook . [ tense music ] xander : [ grunts ] kristen : oh , my god ! brady ? what did you do to him ? [ crowbar clatters ] xander : i did what had to be done . i told you not to trust him . he was in there with our `` patient . `` kristen : did he see ? xander : he was about to , so i put his lights out . the question is ... what do we do with him now ? oh ! bonnie : mimi is in town . she came to see the baby . in fact , she is just dying to meet her baby sister for the very first time , and i promised her i promised her that the three of us would have a family day together today . lucas : well , that scares me imagining what your family days are like together . bonnie : you need to do the right thing and give me my baby back . now where is she ? lucas : i 'm not gon na tell you where she is . bonnie : you should know me well enough by now that if you 're not going to play nice with me , i have no problem playing rough . lucas : no , i know you 'll lie and cheat to get whatever you want . you 'll do whatever it takes . i know that . that 's exactly why i 'm not telling you where the baby is . bonnie : fine . i will find her myself , and when i do , you will pay for this , i 'm te -- lucas : okay , bonnie . sami : [ chuckles ] how about that ? you ended up with a homicidal maniac like xander . you really deserve the bottom of the barrel , nicole . congratulations . nicole : wow . what a surprise . sami brady shooting her big mouth off when she has no idea what she 's talking about . [ baby cries ] i hope you 're gone when i come back 'cause i do n't want my daughter hearing you insult me . sami : [ sighs ] eric : she 's right . you have no idea what 's going on . sami : i know that anything involving nicole is creepy and dangerous . look , come on , eric . she is a ticking time bomb . and she 's going to explode , and i do n't want anyone i care about to end up collateral damage . eve : so , there you have it , vic . brady 's dumped me . there 's no way i 'm gon na be able to fix things between the two of you . victor : yes , that seems clear . eve : so go on . gloat . i know how much you just love seeing me kicked in the teeth . victor : i 'm not going to gloat . actually i 'm sorry . eve : right . victor : i admit that i 'm not your biggest fan . brady seemed to love you . god knows he 's been done in by enough women too many times . so , i was hoping this time would be different . since i was in on it , i know you were just trying to protect him . eve : i did what i did because i love him . victor : yeah . i have a hard time relating to that . 'cause i 've never done anything for anyone that i 've loved that has n't turned around and bit me in the ass . eve : oh , god , please tell me we do n't have anything in common . victor : yeah . imagine how i feel . eve : [ chuckles ] victor : so i know why you did what you did . and i 'm sorry . eve : are you saying you understand and forgive me ? victor : yes , i suppose so . eve : i must have entered an alternative universe . victor : hey , i 'm not proposing we go bowling . eve : oh , well good . because i kill at the the seven - ten split . victor : just sorry for what happened . you want a drink ? eve : yes . i would , thank you . victor : good . go for it . [ liquid pouring ] eve : [ sighs ] i have more to tell you . eric knows that there is a recording of nicole 's confession , and i guess he 's gon na be stopping by here to look for it . victor : well , he 's out of luck . brady has it . eve : no , brady does n't have it . brady swears that you have it and you lied about not knowing where it is . victor : so if i do n't have it and brady does n't have it ... someone else was in my safe . and i know exactly who that someone is . kristen : leave me alone with him . xander : you sure that 's a good idea ? i mean , i know you 've always fancied him . and i bet you 're partial to the odd bit of bondage every now and then , are n't you ? kristen : get out . now . xander : fine . but i 'll leave you the gun , just in case you do come to your senses and put him out of his misery . brady : [ gasps ] [ groans ] [ groaning ] well , we 've got ta stop meeting like this . kristen : you followed me . you did n't run away with me , this was all a ploy . brady : well , i could have just asked you where you were going , kristen , but you tend to lie once and a while , you know ? kristen : so when we made love , that did n't mean anything to you ? it was just trying to find out what i was up to ? you know , do n't bother lying to me either . you did all this ... all this ! because you wanted to find out the truth about ej , right ? brady : yeah , that 's the million - dollar question . that guy in the wheelchair ... is it him ? bonnie : that 's my baby , give her to me . chloe : like hell i will . lucas : i just told bonnie i was suing for full custody . she 's not that happy about it . mimi : she 's not the only one . [ soft dramatic music ] eric : you do n't know the whole truth why nicole left . you 're still more than ready to judge her ? sami : yeah , i do n't need to know . you know why ? because everything to do with nicole is creepy and dangerous , and we should just go . eric : no . sami : are you kidding me ? nicole : you wan na know why i 'm here with xander ? because he blackmailed me into marrying him . yeah . i 'm married to the guy who kept me in a cage and taunted me with my baby 's life . sami : okay , well that does suck . but you had to know that xander was working with kristen . nicole : no . i try to stay as far away from xander as i can . i do n't ever rock the boat . eric : you do n't know that xander and kristen are working together . sami : they showed up at mom 's wedding . they both had guns . eric : he was n't after mom . he was after me . sami : oh , really ? so it 's just a coincidence ? just like it 's a coincidence that kristen has this address ? kristen : is that all you really care about ? hm ? helping sami ? what has she ever done for you ? or anybody else , for that matter . i know ... you knew i was listening to you when you were talking to your dad . you lied to me . you and me . all the promises of happiness together that we could have . brady : yeah . yeah , i played you , baby , but that 's just a page out of your own book . kristen : yeah , yeah , yeah . you betrayed me . you betrayed any sort of happiness we could have . brady : i 'm sorry . had to be done . kristen : [ chuckles ] yeah . so am i . [ dark music ] for mild - to - moderate eczema mimi : chloe and i had a little talk in the square . i know what you 're trying to do . lucas : you mean what i 'm going to do . mimi : well , you 're not doing anything today . my mom and i are leaving and we 're taking the baby with us . bonnie : that 's right . lucas : hey , listen . i can not let you do that . sami : okay , look , i did n't come all the way to nashville to go home answers . so i 'm staying until xander shows up . nicole : the hell you are . eric : whoa , whoa , wait . sami , what are you doing ? sami : i 'm calling rafe . he 's gon na come here and he 's gon na arrest that creep . eric : if you call rafe , it 's not just gon na hurt nicole . we want to be together . i love nicole and i still love holly . sami : no [ stammers ] nicole : and since appealing to your better nature never really works , think about this . if you turn xander over to the cops , you 're gon na blow any chance you had of finding out what he 's doing with kristen . eric : just give me a day . i 'm going to follow him tomorrow . if i can get what he has on nicole , i might just be able to find out if it 's kristen who 's calling the shots . victor : sonny told me he saw xander taking cash out of the safe . it 's a pretty sure bet that he also has nicole 's confession . eve : well what do you think he 's up to ? victor : well , for start john told me that he 's the one who shot marlena . eve : and not sami ... wow . so xander was at the wedding and so was kristen . you think he was her plus one ? victor : i would n't put it past her . but if we 're lucky , they 're long gone by now . far enough away that they ca n't do any more damage . kristen : i hoped we could 've been happy together . i know you still love me . god , brady , i would have done anything for you . i would have gotten tate back . we could have started a family . now you 're never gon na see your son again . brady : here 's what i know about you . i know there 's a big part of you still , still loves me . and that 's why you are not gon na kill me . because you ca n't do it . kristen : maybe you 're right . [ tense music ] [ grunts ] but i can still pay you back . xander : wow . looks like i missed all the fun . is he dead ? kristen : just unconscious . xander : well ... why do n't i finish what you started . mimi : you 've got a real problem , here , lucas . lucas : oh , yeah ? mimi : you have n't legally established that you 're her father , so if i need to call the cops to get her out of here , i will . lucas : fine . bonnie : that 's right . lucas : do it . oh , look . eli : is there a problem here ? bonnie : actually there is . could you please tell these two people that my daughter and i are leaving with my baby ? eli : ah , i 'm sorry , mrs . lockhart , but you 're not going anywhere . eve : i better get going . victor , if ... if brady 's not here , where the hell is he ? victor : not a clue . eve : stefan dimera seems to think that he left town with kristen . victor : no , he knows that she 's too dangerous . he 'd never do that . eve : oh please , god , let that be true . he was so angry and hurt . maybe he 's not thinking straight . victor : if i hear from him , should i tell him you 're looking for him ? eve : yeah . he and i have some unfinished business whether he likes it or not .

i need a lawyer because i am suing you for full custody . because you 're unreliable , you 're untrustworthy , and you 're crazy as a bat . and i 'm not letting you anywhere near that baby until we have our day in court . how do i know you 're not gon na run off and pull one of your genius moves again , huh ? mimi : our baby 's daddy is irrelevant . all that matters is he 's not lucas . his name is n't on the birth certificate . so unless he decides to take this to court , he 's got no legal claim on my kid . bonnie : neither do i . mimi : well , we 're not gon na give him a chance to find that out . first , you go meet him , just like you planned , and take my daughter back . nice and easy . bonnie : mm , i do n't do nice and easy . mimi : you 're right . that would be suspicious , so you show up and rip my child from his arms . then once she 's back in mine , i 'll get the hell out of this town and so will you in the opposite direction . bonnie : mm , he 'll think he 's following the baby . mimi : when really he 's just off on a wild goose chase . you lead him around the world and back while i raise my daughter in peace . bonnie : so how long does this goose chase last ?

mimi : and he has other kids . chloe : yeah , who are , thankfully , teenagers , and no risk of being raised by that lying , scheming , slutty ex - con . lucas is doing what he needs to do to protect his daughter from her own mother . your mother . mimi : look . i know you and i did n't get along -- chloe : oh , i remember . mimi : but i thought we got past that . chloe : you 're kidding . mimi : and i know my mom is n't perfect -- chloe : well , i do n't know if `` is n't perfect `` summarizes it all . mimi : chloe . you 're a mother . you know what it means to hold a baby in your arms . those eyes that look back at you like you hung the moon . it 's like you 're their whole world and you can do no wrong even though you know that 's the furthest thing from the truth . a new baby is a second chance at your own life , another chance to get it right . you and lucas do n't want to take that away from someone . you do n't want to come between a little baby girl and her mother . please talk to lucas , get him to change his mind about this . chloe : you 're right , i am a mother , and if someone tried to take parker from me , i would die . mimi : so you 'll get him to change his mind ? chloe : sorry , mimi , i just -- i ca n't do that . and we 're not talking about any mother . we 're talking about bonnie lockhart . you 'd know , more than anybody , what kind of mother she is . mimi : well , i do n't think you 're in any position to judge . belle told me how you stole that baby from nicole . you even tried to breast feed the poor little thing , ugh , how sick is that ! chloe : okay , i can see that we have n't got past hating each other . now listen , i 'm not gon na be your victim anymore and i 'm not gon na let you bully me out of doing the right thing . and you 're not a mother , so you do n't understand . so i 'm not going to stand here and waste my time talking to you about this . i 'm gon na take this little girl back to her father where she belongs , and there 's nothing you can do about it . mimi : you 're wrong about that , ghoul girl . there is no way in hell you 're taking my kid . eve : so now brady knows exactly what we did . and the fact that i was trying to help does n't mean ... it does n't make a damn bit of difference to him because all he sees is me being the one who who made him lose tate . victor : why did you tell him anything at all ? eve : it was jennifer 's fault ! victor : i heard she told eric what brady did to nicole . eve : yeah , she opened her big , fat mouth and now a whole bunch of lives are starting to unravel . nicole : i have no clue about what you 're talking about . i hate kristen for what she did to eric . and i would n't spit on that woman if she were on fire . and i sure as hell would n't team up with that lunatic . sami : really ? then why did stefan dimera give me this address ? eric : sami , i want you to trust me . nicole is not living here with kristen . sami : really ? you do n't know that , eric -- eric : yes , i do . she 's living here with xander cook . [ tense music ] xander : [ grunts ] kristen : oh , my god ! brady ? what did you do to him ? [ crowbar clatters ] xander : i did what had to be done . i told you not to trust him . he was in there with our `` patient . `` kristen : did he see ? xander : he was about to , so i put his lights out . the question is ... what do we do with him now ? oh ! bonnie : mimi is in town . she came to see the baby . in fact , she is just dying to meet her baby sister for the very first time , and i promised her i promised her that the three of us would have a family day together today . lucas : well , that scares me imagining what your family days are like together . bonnie : you need to do the right thing and give me my baby back . now where is she ? lucas : i 'm not gon na tell you where she is . bonnie : you should know me well enough by now that if you 're not going to play nice with me , i have no problem playing rough . lucas : no , i know you 'll lie and cheat to get whatever you want . you 'll do whatever it takes . i know that . that 's exactly why i 'm not telling you where the baby is . bonnie : fine . i will find her myself , and when i do , you will pay for this , i 'm te -- lucas : okay , bonnie . sami : [ chuckles ] how about that ? you ended up with a homicidal maniac like xander . you really deserve the bottom of the barrel , nicole . congratulations . nicole : wow . what a surprise . sami brady shooting her big mouth off when she has no idea what she 's talking about . [ baby cries ] i hope you 're gone when i come back 'cause i do n't want my daughter hearing you insult me . sami : [ sighs ] eric : she 's right . you have no idea what 's going on . sami : i know that anything involving nicole is creepy and dangerous . look , come on , eric . she is a ticking time bomb . and she 's going to explode , and i do n't want anyone i care about to end up collateral damage . eve : so , there you have it , vic . brady 's dumped me . there 's no way i 'm gon na be able to fix things between the two of you . victor : yes , that seems clear . eve : so go on . gloat . i know how much you just love seeing me kicked in the teeth . victor : i 'm not going to gloat . actually i 'm sorry . eve : right . victor : i admit that i 'm not your biggest fan . brady seemed to love you . god knows he 's been done in by enough women too many times . so , i was hoping this time would be different . since i was in on it , i know you were just trying to protect him . eve : i did what i did because i love him . victor : yeah . i have a hard time relating to that . 'cause i 've never done anything for anyone that i 've loved that has n't turned around and bit me in the ass . eve : oh , god , please tell me we do n't have anything in common . victor : yeah . imagine how i feel . eve : [ chuckles ] victor : so i know why you did what you did . and i 'm sorry . eve : are you saying you understand and forgive me ? victor : yes , i suppose so . eve : i must have entered an alternative universe . victor : hey , i 'm not proposing we go bowling . eve : oh , well good . because i kill at the the seven - ten split . victor : just sorry for what happened . you want a drink ? eve : yes . i would , thank you . victor : good . go for it . [ liquid pouring ] eve : [ sighs ] i have more to tell you . eric knows that there is a recording of nicole 's confession , and i guess he 's gon na be stopping by here to look for it . victor : well , he 's out of luck . brady has it . eve : no , brady does n't have it . brady swears that you have it and you lied about not knowing where it is . victor : so if i do n't have it and brady does n't have it ... someone else was in my safe . and i know exactly who that someone is . kristen : leave me alone with him . xander : you sure that 's a good idea ? i mean , i know you 've always fancied him . and i bet you 're partial to the odd bit of bondage every now and then , are n't you ? kristen : get out . now . xander : fine . but i 'll leave you the gun , just in case you do come to your senses and put him out of his misery . brady : [ gasps ] [ groans ] [ groaning ] well , we 've got ta stop meeting like this . kristen : you followed me . you did n't run away with me , this was all a ploy . brady : well , i could have just asked you where you were going , kristen , but you tend to lie once and a while , you know ? kristen : so when we made love , that did n't mean anything to you ? it was just trying to find out what i was up to ? you know , do n't bother lying to me either . you did all this ... all this ! because you wanted to find out the truth about ej , right ? brady : yeah , that 's the million - dollar question . that guy in the wheelchair ... is it him ? bonnie : that 's my baby , give her to me . chloe : like hell i will . lucas : i just told bonnie i was suing for full custody . she 's not that happy about it . mimi : she 's not the only one . [ soft dramatic music ] eric : you do n't know the whole truth why nicole left . you 're still more than ready to judge her ? sami : yeah , i do n't need to know . you know why ? because everything to do with nicole is creepy and dangerous , and we should just go . eric : no . sami : are you kidding me ? nicole : you wan na know why i 'm here with xander ? because he blackmailed me into marrying him . yeah . i 'm married to the guy who kept me in a cage and taunted me with my baby 's life . sami : okay , well that does suck . but you had to know that xander was working with kristen . nicole : no . i try to stay as far away from xander as i can . i do n't ever rock the boat . eric : you do n't know that xander and kristen are working together . sami : they showed up at mom 's wedding . they both had guns . eric : he was n't after mom . he was after me . sami : oh , really ? so it 's just a coincidence ? just like it 's a coincidence that kristen has this address ? kristen : is that all you really care about ? hm ? helping sami ? what has she ever done for you ? or anybody else , for that matter . i know ... you knew i was listening to you when you were talking to your dad . you lied to me . you and me . all the promises of happiness together that we could have . brady : yeah . yeah , i played you , baby , but that 's just a page out of your own book . kristen : yeah , yeah , yeah . you betrayed me . you betrayed any sort of happiness we could have . brady : i 'm sorry . had to be done . kristen : [ chuckles ] yeah . so am i .

[ laughing ] oh ! i wish calvin could see your face right now . chelsea : he left me $ 5 million ? mm - hmm . nick : you did n't expect that ? chelsea : um , we -- we had a prenup . that agreement was a formality , a nod to your ... colorful past . both yours and your mother 's . but , in death , calvin intended for you to be looked after . so , as i said , you are going to be a very rich woman . abby : tonight 's special , it needs to be on the menu permanently . lola : that 's my mom 's . the recipe . i mean , i put my twist on it , but yeah . abby : i 'm really sorry about celeste going back to miami . lola : at least i got to spend some time with her , thanks to you and the bridal shower . abby : have you talked to her since ? lola : i 've -- i 've sent some texts and left her messages . abby : there 's still time . lola : look , i only have myself to blame . abby : that is not true . you were unconscious when the surgery happened , and your brothers , they had their reasons to not upset your mother . and one of those reasons was psycho mia . so if we 're gon na blame someone , let 's blame her . i 'm sure she still has n't given celeste a confession . lola : but then after , once i woke up , once i healed ... abby : your body was healing , but your heart was in bad shape when you found out about kyle and summer . it was a terrible time for you . lola : exactly , and because i decided to go through that without my mother , now i have to go through the best times without her , too . abby : my mother and i , we have had our fights and our issues , but ... moms -- they show up . it 's what they do . lola : abby , i think i have to accept the fact that on my wedding day , my mother will be far away . kyle : [ sighs ] celeste . mrs. rosales . sorry . it 's kyle . i 'm hoping you 'll call me back . the wedding is almost here , and lola misses you so much . i know i may not be the son - in - law you 'd hoped for . but please ... do n't let lola get married without her mother . nate : this is the plateau you reached for the last few weeks , and this is where you are now . that might only seem like a slight improvement , but ... at this stage in the game ... nikki : so this is good news ? nate : it 's very good news . nikki : even though this number here is higher ? nate : this is the one that 's key . there are various considerations , but the protocol is officially working . victor : in spite of the side effects ? nate : unfortunately , they 're part of the package . nikki : well , you know what happened to him the other day ? he almost passed out . nate : as unnerving as it is , what victor 's experience so far is relatively mild . and we ca n't argue with these numbers . victor : so , what now ? nate : if you 're ready , i 'd like to introduce another element to the treatment . nikki : why ? if victor is doing so well , why change anything ? victor : sweetheart , i assume there 's only a window of time to beat this . [ sighs ] if we do n't take advantage of that , we might lose the chance . is n't that right ? additional sponsorship nikki : what other side effects can we expect ? is this new treatment really worth it ? nate : i do n't have hard numbers for you , but victor is clearly stronger than he was a month ago . so any and all medications might have fewer side effects . nikki : well , i 'm sorry , might is not good enough . we need to be prepared . nate : given that we 're introducing a new element , there is a wide range of unintended reactions , and they could be more severe . victor : but you 're not sure . nikki : darling , we do n't know what could happen if you go on this new regimen . victor : but , sweetheart , what i 'm on right now was meant to hold the progression of the disease , all right ? with the new treatment , i have a chance to beat it . so to hell with the side effects . nikki : [ sighs ] that 's easy for you to say now . victor : my darling , you know i 'm a fighter . i will fight this . nikki : i know . at this point , i suppose there 's nothing i could say to stop you . victor : no , that is not true . we 're in this together ! as we are with everything else . nikki : i know you want my blessing . victor : yes , i do . nikki : you have it . victor : okay , so ... what do we do ? victoria : i ca n't do this . billy : you know you ca n't leave , right ? victoria : no , i ca n't finish getting dressed ... billy : mmm . victoria : ... with you being so you . billy : it 's part of my secret plan . victoria : [ laughs ] okay , well , um , i have that video conference with japan . billy : i know , because you 're a boss lady , and it 's so sexy . victoria : billy . billy : hmm ? victoria : [ laughs ] i love you . billy : i know you do . i love you , too . victoria : and -- i know that things have been crazy and we really have n't had a chance to talk . but i noticed that you have n't been sleeping . billy : it 's because , like you said , it 's been crazy . but it 'll -- it 'll be normal again , and , in the meantime , we got to take moments like these . all right ? so talk business to me . talk about synergy and vertical integration , and tell me about that other one that i really like ... victoria : are you okay ? i mean , you would tell me if you 're not okay , right ? christian : i want daddy . billy : hey , buddy . victoria : did you have a bad dream ? billy : come on up here . victoria : come up here . tell us what happened . what happened ? christian : i called daddy , and he did n't come . victoria : oh . oh , it 's okay . you know , your daddy loves you , and uncle billy 's here , and i 'm here . billy : you , uh -- do you want to call your dad on the phone so he can say goodnight to you ? does that sound like a good idea , aunt vick ?

[ sighs ] i guess he really wanted to make sure we were taken care of after he was gone . everyone who loved calvin also loved you , chelsea . it 's no crime to accept what he left you . there 's no crime in any of this at all . victoria : and he spoke to nick ? billy : yeah , i guess that 's all it took . nick started talking , and christian 's eyes got all heavy . guess he just needed to talk to his dad . victoria : and his excellent uncle helped . billy : listen , the kids are all crashed out , so i 'm gon na try and do the same . victoria : good . get some real sleep for once . i 'll be really quiet when i come home . billy : all right . victoria : i love you . billy : i love you , too . victoria : what 's going on ?

nikki : darling , your father can handle anything , just ask him . now , about you ... you have taken on so much with the business and with christian . victoria : you know , it 's not right what that little boy is going through . all because of adam 's ego . nikki : he must be so confused . victoria : well , billy and i , you know , we 're trying to distract him , entertain him , and he loves being with johnny and katie . nikki : yes , but it 's so frightening for a child to be away from a parent . victoria : christian had a dream that he called out to his daddy and no one came . nikki : [ sighs ] oh , poor baby . victoria : i spoke with billy . he 's doing fine . nikki : well , that 's good to hear . i have to hand it to billy . he 's really done right by you and the children . victoria : i could not do any of this if i did n't know that billy was n't right by my side . billy : [ gasps ] no , no , no , no ... oh , no , no , no , no ... `` the young and the restless `` will continue . billy : my car ... [ panting ] no , no , no , no ... what 's going on ? come on . [ sighs ] nikki : you and billy are wonderful parents and guardians . opening your hearts and home is no small thing . victoria : nick would have done the same for us . nikki : i know he would , and your father and i wish we could have stepped in . victoria : mom , no . it 's okay like this . believe me , the kids love the company , and three 's not really that much more than two . nikki : well , we both know that 's not true . victoria : well , it 's only temporary . nick 's gon na regain custody , and , until then , we 'll all find our way . and i want you to know that i 'm there for you and dad , too . i know this ca n't be easy for you , always on alert , looking out for him . but that 's something that i 've always admired about both of you . you 're a team , no matter what , and i 'd like to think that billy and i will be like that when we 're grandparents . nikki : well , darling , of course you will be , but that 's a long way off . in the meantime , victor and i are gon na be coming over to see the kids and to spoil them terribly and give you a break . victoria : well , luckily , they are still young enough to be distracted by racecars and board games , not surfing the internet . that video that adam released with nick posing as j.t . ? nikki : [ scoffs ] with no thought of how it would affect all the other members of the family , including his own father . victoria : that tape is out there now , mom . what if the kids see it ? nikki : oh , i know . [ sighs ] nicholas did a terrible thing , and he 's still paying for it . victoria : it was awful . but he will always be a better person than adam could ever dream of being . nikki : well , we will all be there for him . he wo n't have to go through anything alone . chelsea : $ 5 million , like -- how am i supposed to be ? am i supposed to be happy ? am i supposed to be feeling lucky ? am i supposed to be online shopping ? it just feels weird . i just feel like i 'm -- i do n't know , i just feel like i 'm missing something . nick : well , it could be that you already know what it is , but you 're fighting it . you got a pretty strong fight - or - flight instinct , chelsea , and it might be trying to kick in . chelsea : but fight who ? run from who ? i mean , i 'm safe here . for the most part . victor and adam , they both know where i am . the world did n't end when i came back . nick : but a lot 's changed for you . chelsea : i mean , $ 5 million . that 's a lot . that 's a lot of money . and i 've been around money , but $ 5 million of my own , i mean ... maybe that 's why i 'm freaking out . nick : well , that kind of cash , you know , means you can do whatever the hell you want . and having options , if you have n't had them before ... might seem a little scary . lola : you 're such a jerk . why would you scare me like that , making me think i forgot our honeymoon ? kyle : how are you so gullible ? lola : i have faith ! i trust people ! kyle : oh , did you know `` gullible `` is n't in the dictionary ? lola : kyle , do we have a honeymoon or not ? kyle : since you did n't plan it ... lola : stop ! kyle : we -- what would you want to do on our first days and nights as man and wife ? lola : well , if it were up to me ... on the beach , obviously . kyle : naturally . lola : and snorkeling . kyle : mm , i 'm padi certified . lola : and we 'd fish , and i 'd cook for you , right there on the sand . and we 'd bundle up in a blanket and watch the waves in the moonlight ... kyle : just the waves ? lola : and the stars . like our night on the rooftop . kyle : so ... you 're thinking something like ... this . lola : yeah . just like that . kyle : mm . how about this bungalow ? lola : it 's gorgeous . kyle : good thing i booked it . lola : you did ? or are you teasing me again ? because i swear ... kyle : it 's ours . lola : wow . i love it . so , you know , if i ask you some questions about our wedding , will you tell me if i 'm warm ? kyle : absolutely . as soon as you show me a picture of your wedding dress . lola : yeah , no , not gon na happen . kyle : back at ya . [ chuckles ] abby : well , hello there . nate : bad time ? abby : not at all . nate : well , i have some news . abby : i ca n't wait to hear . nate : victor 's lab results are looking good . abby : honestly ? nate : and i got permission from him to tell you myself . abby : [ laughs ] that 's wonderful . oh ! my dad must be so relieved . nate : yeah . abby : [ exhales sharply ] you 're really good at what you do , are n't you ? nate : a little bit . abby : it 's okay to admit that you 're the best . nate : oh , okay , i would n't want to brag . abby : oh , well , it has n't bothered you before . nate : well , i 'm playing it cool . abby : oh , well , i am impressed and grateful and so excited . nate : we should celebrate just how amazing i am . how about i plan something for us at my place ? abby : i ca n't wait to see what you have in mind . nate : mmm . victoria : thank god ! billy , where were you ? billy : i know , i know . victoria : when i got home , the kids were alone ! billy : i know . victoria : what were you thinking ? if you needed to go out , you could have told me . billy : i did n't need to go out , i do n't -- i do n't know ... victoria : tell me what 's going on . billy : it 's bad . it 's bad . i did n't want to tell you because i did n't want to worry , and ... i thought that i would -- i could handle it . and i just thought that if i could get some sleep that it would all go away , and i just -- i do n't know what i thought . victoria : you have to tell me what happened . billy : i was dealing with it , you know , i was talking to sharon , and i did n't want -- i did n't want to talk to you about it because of what happened to me when delia died , how i fell apart . because of what i did to us . victoria : we 're talking about tonight , billy . please . talk to me . billy : i 'm scared . victoria : of what ? billy : i 'm scared that i 'm gon na lose it , and i do n't know what to do . nate : so , i was thinking ... i can cook you dinner . abby : you do realize that i have a restaurant with very good takeout ... nate : an excellent restaurant , but it 's not home cooking , is it ? abby : by definition , no . nate : which is what i 'm offering . abby : so , will you be in the kitchen ? nate : i will . abby : does it get hot in there ? nate : it does . abby : mm , steamy ? nate : depending on what 's on the menu . abby : mm . i think i might like this very much . nate : i plan to make sure of that . lola : what kind of flowers will there be ? kyle : who said anything about flowers ? lola : there are always flowers at a wedding . kyle : mm , not this wedding . lola : fine . then tell me about the table linens . kyle : it 'll be picnic table seating , but i 'll have them wiped down , and i hired some food trucks as an inside joke to how we met . lola : aww . i actually really love that . kyle : hang on . i have to go make some changes to the venue . lola : no . no , no , no . no one else can leave before the wedding . kyle : i would never . lola : i know . i have to stop obsessing over my mother . i just never thought she would n't be at my wedding . kyle : hey . whatever it takes to give you the wedding of your dreams , that 's what is going to happen . do you trust me ? lola : i do . chelsea : no , mom , i 'm not -- stop . i 'm not getting into specifics with you , okay ? just know that connor will be taken care of . i will make sure that you 're taken care of . yes , mom , it was really that much money , but i got to go . i ca n't talk about this right now . i love you . bye ! [ exhales sharply ] nick : i 'm guessing anita 's real happy right about now . chelsea : over the moon . money is her favorite family member . nick : and you have a lot of it now . chelsea : uh , yeah , i -- i guess i will , soon . nick : okay , uh , i got this thing in my head , and i do n't want to say it , but it 's just gon na keep floating around in there until i do . chelsea : go on . nick : well , now that you have , you know , all of this money , more than enough to run , to really disappear , you know , you do n't have to lean on anyone ... for anything ... is that you want to do ? chelsea : i 'm staying right here . i 'm not going anywhere . if i can have whatever i want ... i want this . billy : i 'm hearing dee 's voice . i hear her laughing . she 's calling out for me . even when i 'm awake . but , in my dreams , it 's -- she needs me . and right before i get to her , i hear the car . victoria : billy ... billy : it 's not just that . i dreamt that she wrote the word `` daddy `` in a piece of furniture in the chancellor living room . when i got there , when i woke up , i went and checked . and it was there . `` daddy `` written in the exact same way . and there 's another time where i pulled back the wallpaper , and ... on the wall was written `` adam . `` victoria : oh , god ... billy : except it was n't `` adam . `` it was `` madame cordelia . `` i guess it 's a name that she gave herself when she was playing tea party . except when i saw it , i could n't help but think ... she needs me . [ sighs ] i just want to sleep . i just -- i just ca n't sleep , and it 's just messing with my head . victoria : why did you need to leave the house , billy ? billy : i didn't . i did n't need to leave . i did n't -- i could n't sleep , so i took one of your pills , or -- one or two of your pills , the ones that you have from dealing with j.t . victoria : billy , you ca n't take other people 's medication . billy : i know , trust me . i know , it 's stupid and it 's dangerous , but i just wanted to sleep . [ sighs ] and i woke up on the living room floor of the chancellor house . victoria : what ? how did you get there ? billy : my car was out front . victoria : oh , god , billy ... billy : i know . trust me , i know . victoria : [ sighs ] billy : but when i came to , i went and looked , and where it said `` adam `` ... the word `` stop `` was written above it . `` stop adam . `` victoria : are you sure ? i mean , maybe it was dark ... billy : i do n't know . i do n't know . i do n't know . i do n't know what 's happening . victoria : it 's okay . it 's okay . i 'm right here . i 'm right here . we 're gon na get through this , i promise . i 'm right here with you , okay ? billy : [ sighs ] victoria : we 'll figure it out . it 'll be okay . it 's okay .
nate tells victor and nikki the new treatment for victor 's disease is working so he is ready to move into the next phase but he warns the side effects may get worse which worries nikki . victor tells nate as long as the treatment is working he does n't care that the side effects may get worse . nate gets permission from victor to tell abby the news and he stops by society to tell her about victor 's condition . nate decides to cook abby dinner at his place to celebrate . kyle leaves a message for lola 's mom asking her to please come to the wedding because lola really would miss her if she did n't come to the wedding . christian tells billy and victoria that he misses nick and he ca n't sleep so billy calls nick so christian can tell his daddy good night . calvin 's lawyer and best friend tells chelsea calvin left her five million dollars and a separate trust fund for connor . chelsea does n't feel its right to take the money since calvin had other family but daryl calvin 's lawyer persuades her that calvin wanted her to be looked after so she would n't have to depend on anyone . chelsea signs the papers to take the money and then tells nick that she does n't know what to do now but she is sure that she wants to stay and not run anymore . billy takes one of victoria 's sleeping pills and awakens at the chancellor mansion where he sees his car in the driveway and the words stop adam written on the wall paper where days earlier it said madame cordelia . billy goes home and tells victoria everything that has been happening to him and admits that he is afraid he is losing his mind . victoria tells billy that they will figure out what is going on and get through this together .
<s>[INST] [ previously_on ] i 'm about to make you a very rich woman . nikki : i need you to fight , victor . i need you to fight to stay here with me because ... i 'm not ready to face life without you . billy : delia wrote this . she 's trying to tell me something . oh , my sweet girl . i miss you so bad . delia : [ echoing ] poor daddy . billy : when i sleep , i do n't actually get any rest . it 's like i 'm living a constant nightmare , just like the night i lost her . victoria : billy . i apologize for showing up unannounced , but i wanted to convey my condolences in person . to have a man like calvin struck down in his prime , far from home , in a hotel room , no less . chelsea : it was a huge loss for all of us . but from deep loss can come a sliver of joy . your husband was a successful businessman , you knew that . chelsea : yeah . calvin , he worked his way up . he was very proud of what he built . and he wanted to share that with the people closest to his heart . his thought for you was to leave you a nest egg -- 5 million feathers worth . chelsea : wait , what ? [ laughing ] oh ! i wish calvin could see your face right now . chelsea : he left me $ 5 million ? mm - hmm . nick : you did n't expect that ? chelsea : um , we -- we had a prenup . that agreement was a formality , a nod to your ... colorful past . both yours and your mother 's . but , in death , calvin intended for you to be looked after . so , as i said , you are going to be a very rich woman . abby : tonight 's special , it needs to be on the menu permanently . lola : that 's my mom 's . the recipe . i mean , i put my twist on it , but yeah . abby : i 'm really sorry about celeste going back to miami . lola : at least i got to spend some time with her , thanks to you and the bridal shower . abby : have you talked to her since ? lola : i 've -- i 've sent some texts and left her messages . abby : there 's still time . lola : look , i only have myself to blame . abby : that is not true . you were unconscious when the surgery happened , and your brothers , they had their reasons to not upset your mother . and one of those reasons was psycho mia . so if we 're gon na blame someone , let 's blame her . i 'm sure she still has n't given celeste a confession . lola : but then after , once i woke up , once i healed ... abby : your body was healing , but your heart was in bad shape when you found out about kyle and summer . it was a terrible time for you . lola : exactly , and because i decided to go through that without my mother , now i have to go through the best times without her , too . abby : my mother and i , we have had our fights and our issues , but ... moms -- they show up . it 's what they do . lola : abby , i think i have to accept the fact that on my wedding day , my mother will be far away . kyle : [ sighs ] celeste . mrs. rosales . sorry . it 's kyle . i 'm hoping you 'll call me back . the wedding is almost here , and lola misses you so much . i know i may not be the son - in - law you 'd hoped for . but please ... do n't let lola get married without her mother . nate : this is the plateau you reached for the last few weeks , and this is where you are now . that might only seem like a slight improvement , but ... at this stage in the game ... nikki : so this is good news ? nate : it 's very good news . nikki : even though this number here is higher ? nate : this is the one that 's key . there are various considerations , but the protocol is officially working . victor : in spite of the side effects ? nate : unfortunately , they 're part of the package . nikki : well , you know what happened to him the other day ? he almost passed out . nate : as unnerving as it is , what victor 's experience so far is relatively mild . and we ca n't argue with these numbers . victor : so , what now ? nate : if you 're ready , i 'd like to introduce another element to the treatment . nikki : why ? if victor is doing so well , why change anything ? victor : sweetheart , i assume there 's only a window of time to beat this . [ sighs ] if we do n't take advantage of that , we might lose the chance . is n't that right ? additional sponsorship nikki : what other side effects can we expect ? is this new treatment really worth it ? nate : i do n't have hard numbers for you , but victor is clearly stronger than he was a month ago . so any and all medications might have fewer side effects . nikki : well , i 'm sorry , might is not good enough . we need to be prepared . nate : given that we 're introducing a new element , there is a wide range of unintended reactions , and they could be more severe . victor : but you 're not sure . nikki : darling , we do n't know what could happen if you go on this new regimen . victor : but , sweetheart , what i 'm on right now was meant to hold the progression of the disease , all right ? with the new treatment , i have a chance to beat it . so to hell with the side effects . nikki : [ sighs ] that 's easy for you to say now . victor : my darling , you know i 'm a fighter . i will fight this . nikki : i know . at this point , i suppose there 's nothing i could say to stop you . victor : no , that is not true . we 're in this together ! as we are with everything else . nikki : i know you want my blessing . victor : yes , i do . nikki : you have it . victor : okay , so ... what do we do ? victoria : i ca n't do this . billy : you know you ca n't leave , right ? victoria : no , i ca n't finish getting dressed ... billy : mmm . victoria : ... with you being so you . billy : it 's part of my secret plan . victoria : [ laughs ] okay , well , um , i have that video conference with japan . billy : i know , because you 're a boss lady , and it 's so sexy . victoria : billy . billy : hmm ? victoria : [ laughs ] i love you . billy : i know you do . i love you , too . victoria : and -- i know that things have been crazy and we really have n't had a chance to talk . but i noticed that you have n't been sleeping . billy : it 's because , like you said , it 's been crazy . but it 'll -- it 'll be normal again , and , in the meantime , we got to take moments like these . all right ? so talk business to me . talk about synergy and vertical integration , and tell me about that other one that i really like ... victoria : are you okay ? i mean , you would tell me if you 're not okay , right ? christian : i want daddy . billy : hey , buddy . victoria : did you have a bad dream ? billy : come on up here . victoria : come up here . tell us what happened . what happened ? christian : i called daddy , and he did n't come . victoria : oh . oh , it 's okay . you know , your daddy loves you , and uncle billy 's here , and i 'm here . billy : you , uh -- do you want to call your dad on the phone so he can say goodnight to you ? does that sound like a good idea , aunt vick ? [ cellphone chimes ] victoria : huh ? billy : hey . victoria : oh ! yeah , that 's a great idea . i 'm sorry , it 's just , um ... billy : is it your dad ? victoria : yeah . i have to go to the office . it 's about the call . billy : okay , well , you go ahead . we got things here , right ? it 's fine , we 'll , uh -- we 'll call your dad , we 'll hang out , and maybe we 'll watch a couple of puppy videos online , or something . does that sound good ? yeah ? victoria : you sure about that ? billy : yeah . tell her . we 'll be fine . christian : we 'll be fine . victoria : really ? okay . i 'll see you , okay ? good night . billy : okay . bye . victoria : bye . billy : come here . [ clears throat ] bye , aunt vick . victoria : [ chuckles ] night ! billy : one of those nights , right ? you miss someone you love so badly , it hurts ? yeah . i get it . listen , let 's see if we can try and take care of that for you . lola : what ? kyle : what -- what ? lola : what 's with that look on your face ? kyle : oh , nothing ... lola : so you did n't do all of this ? kyle : i blame elves . or ghosts . very romantic ghosts with excellent taste . lola : you did n't have to . kyle : there 's still time for you to back out of the wedding . i got to stay on top of my game . lola : i just want you , with or without flowers and candles . kyle : but i do look better in the candlelight , do n't you think ? lola : mm . the other night was a big deal , you telling me everything that you did , being so open . and i get it now . you were so different when we met . practically opposites . kyle : whoa , not that different . yeah , okay , not a lot in common . lola : and then there i was , minding my own business at my job , and this guys order a sandwich . kyle : now look at us . lola : together forever . all i ask is that you 're as honest with me as you were the other night . it 's all very straightforward -- property sales , charitable contributions ... oh ! did i forget to mention the trust for kenny ? chelsea : who 's -- you mean connor ? `` the trust ? `` for the boy 's education . [ laughs ] you seem surprised . chelsea : well , um , -- well , it 's just -- at the end , calvin mentioned -- he kind of made it sound like -- i was calvin 's oldest friend . there 's nothing you can say to shock me . chelsea : okay , um ... i did n't think calvin considered connor family anymore . well , this bequest says differently . let calvin 's love for you and the child warm you in the cold , lonely days ahead . all you have to do is ... [ chuckles ] sign . chelsea : um ... yeah , i do n't know , it just -- it feels wrong . being wealthy ? chelsea : calvin must have family somewhere . they did n't make the cut . nick : i love you , too , christian . i 'm gon na see you real soon , okay ? good night , son . as i said , i was calvin 's oldest , dearest friend . meeting you gave him new life ! no matter how brief . he would want this for you now . complete independence , beholden to no one ... [ laughs ] oh ! welcome to your new life , chelsea . hmm ? nick : you okay ? i 'm sorry , i had to take that . chelsea : oh , of course you did . is christian all right ? nick : uh , he was drifting off at the end , but , um ... he 's all right . if you need more time ... chelsea : no , i -- i had no idea what was in his will . he never talked to me about any of this , so this is just all happening very fast . um ... i 'm sorry , do you mind ... ? no , anything you need , my dear . i do have a flight , but i can always stay the night . perhaps not in the same hotel that calvin ... mm . well , i 'm sure i can make do . chelsea : [ sighs ] the reality is , calvin and i , we did n't have that much time together , you know ? he was always very kind , very supportive ... except , towards the end , he said some things that really broke my heart , but that did n't define how he felt about us . nick : connor was an easy kid to love . chelsea : yeah , and calvin obviously really cared . i mean , he left him a trust ? he left me way more money than we agreed on in our prenup . i mean ... [ sighs ] i guess he really wanted to make sure we were taken care of after he was gone . everyone who loved calvin also loved you , chelsea . it 's no crime to accept what he left you . there 's no crime in any of this at all . victoria : and he spoke to nick ? billy : yeah , i guess that 's all it took . nick started talking , and christian 's eyes got all heavy . guess he just needed to talk to his dad . victoria : and his excellent uncle helped . billy : listen , the kids are all crashed out , so i 'm gon na try and do the same . victoria : good . get some real sleep for once . i 'll be really quiet when i come home . billy : all right . victoria : i love you . billy : i love you , too . victoria : what 's going on ? nikki : well , your father 's numbers are improving . victoria : really ? victor : mm - hmm . victoria : that 's wonderful ! victor : and because i 'm doing so well , we are moving on to the next stage of the treatment . victoria : oh , i did n't -- i did n't know there was a next stage . victor : well , now , dr . hastings has been on the mark every time he has made a prognosis . now , i know you have an important to call to make to japan . i just wanted to share the good news with you . and keep this under wraps , okay ? victoria : of course . whatever you need . victor : you keep on doing what you 're doing , protecting the company and your nephew . victoria : i 'm just following your lead , in both business and the family . lola : it 's really nice to see all of your stuff back in its place . kyle : mm , yeah , i think mariah still has my `` ask the girlfriend `` hat . lola : [ laughs ] it does really look good on her . all that scrambling and panic because my mom tricked us into believing and pretending that we did n't live together ... kyle : yeah . celeste has a few tricks up her sleeve . lola : yeah , and then she made sure that you did n't move back in when the truth was out . amazing . kyle : a woman who knows what she wants and how to get it . you inherited that . lola : then how come i ca n't figure out how to get what i want right now ? i 'm sorry , i 'm sorry . i 'm not dwelling , and it 's not your job to solve my problems . kyle : what if it 's my hobby ? lola : the wedding is happening , no matter what , and it 's going to be great . kyle : mm - hmm . lola : especially that one part . kyle : which part ? lola : you know ... kyle : oh ! you mean the llamas . lola : wait , really ? kyle : [ chuckles ] you actually think i 'm serious right now . lola : no . no , i don't . are you ? kyle : okay , i 'm supposed to be honest with you . there is no llama . or there was n't going to be , but now there may be a llama . lola : no . no llamas . i refuse to be upstaged on my wedding day . kyle : and llamas are notorious attention hogs , and ... lola : okay , well , i may not know about the wedding , but you do n't know about my dress . kyle : or the honeymoon . lola : what ? kyle : that was the deal -- i arrange the wedding , and you do the honeymoon . lola : are you joking ? kyle : are you kidding ? lola : wait , was i really supposed to plan the honeymoon ? the wire transfer will arrive shortly . chelsea : thank you , daryl , for coming all this way . it was a pleasure to see you again , in spite of the circumstances . chelsea : you , too . if i do n't see you again back home , look after yourself . chelsea : i 'll walk you out . no need . i 'll find my way . nick : how are you doing ? chelsea : i 've seemed okay , have n't i ? nick : yeah , you have . chelsea : well , i thought i was . until now . it feels like everything 's just ... crashing in at once . because this -- it does n't feel right . and i do n't know why . victoria : where 's dad ? nikki : oh , he and nate are going over the specifics of the new treatment . victoria : you do n't want him to do it . nikki : i never said that . victoria : am i wrong ? nikki : i 'm concerned about unknowns . victoria : but dad 's doing well . nikki : he has been , yes . victoria : and the side effects have n't been too awful . nikki : not according to nate . victoria : mom , are you worried that he 's not gon na be able to handle the new medication ? nikki : darling , your father can handle anything , just ask him . now , about you ... you have taken on so much with the business and with christian . victoria : you know , it 's not right what that little boy is going through . all because of adam 's ego . nikki : he must be so confused . victoria : well , billy and i , you know , we 're trying to distract him , entertain him , and he loves being with johnny and katie . nikki : yes , but it 's so frightening for a child to be away from a parent . victoria : christian had a dream that he called out to his daddy and no one came . nikki : [ sighs ] oh , poor baby . victoria : i spoke with billy . he 's doing fine . nikki : well , that 's good to hear . i have to hand it to billy . he 's really done right by you and the children . victoria : i could not do any of this if i did n't know that billy was n't right by my side . billy : [ gasps ] no , no , no , no ... oh , no , no , no , no ... `` the young and the restless `` will continue . billy : my car ...

[ door opens ] [ door closes ] tom : you had no right to do that . you knew that i was probably talking to him about any questions the judge might have . casey : yes , i know , but -- tom : just trying to get him off so you can talk to him alone ? casey : okay , wait a minute . tom : or maybe trying to spin this custody agreement so that you could turn him against your mother and me ? i 'm not gon na stand for it ! casey : hey ! i want him out of the house so i could talk to you , so he would n't hear . god , i would never mess with his mind by trashing you and mom . and you know what ? maybe you should do the same thing by not trashing emily . tom : my responsibility is to bring him up the best that i can . and that is what i intend to do . casey : by poisoning his mind against his mother ? tom : he 's not gon na hear any stories about what emily did . the story he 'll get is that she and i could n't agree upon his care , so the judge awarded me full custody . casey : do -- do you really think daniel is that stupid ? he 's gon na know that there 's more to this than that . tom : i 'm sure there will be questions . margo and i can handle it . casey : he 's not gon na ask you a damn thing . he 's gon na go back to his boarding school with his questions . and then he and his friends are gon na look on the internet , research the case , and find out everything ! tom : fine . i 'll have the records sealed . casey : okay , that might slow him down , but its not gon na stop him from getting answers . and then who 's he gon na hate ? huh ? his mother for being a prostitute ? you for outing her ? or himself for being the reason everyone knows ? tom : this is all emily 's doing . casey : she 's not doing anything anymore . it was a crazy , self - destructive time in her life , and she snapped out of it and ended it . she is not the same person anymore . tom : really ? so , she sleeps with unknown men for money . she sleeps with other people , including me , before you say it , and now she 's sleeping with you ? i 'm sorry . sounds like the same emily to me . casey : she is still a good mother to daniel . tom : stop bringing up daniel like that 's what we 're fighting about . you 're not here trying to protect your brother . you 're trying to protect what you have going on with emily . [ scene_break ] emily : there 's no need to put this out there where daniel can get a hold of it . margo : then sign over custody to us and there 's no way that daniel will know about your sleazy past from tom or me . emily : i 'm not signing my son over to you , margo . he 'll -- he 'll hate me for abandoning him . is that what you want ? margo : yes . emily : i ca n't believe you could be so heartless . you love daniel . do n't you love him enough to -- to keep him from the pain this is gon na cause him ? margo : do n't you dare question my commitment to daniel . you have damaged my family enough , and it ends today . now . emily : this is n't about daniel . this is all about casey . this is about me and casey . and you ca n't handle it . i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . i do n't want to fight . i am begging you , okay ? right now , what can i do to change your mind ? anything and i will do it . [ margo chuckles ] margo : see you in court . [ scene_break ] casey : so , that 's what it comes down to ? me and emily ? tom : there 's more to it than that . casey : yes , there 's daniel . and he 's a great kid . and that 's partly because of emily . do you really think by cutting his mom out of his life that 's the best thing for him ? tom : that is my decision , yes . casey : a decision you made because of what daniel needs ? or because you got issues with me ? tom : i 'm very clear about what i 'm doing , casey , and why , and it has very little to do with your relationship with emily . casey : okay , i 'll buy that . but what about my other big issues ? i 'm an ex - con . maybe this is n't about daniel . maybe this is about the sons you tried to save and you could n't .

[ laughter ] paul : i 'm still waiting . what do you say ? meg : i do . meg : am i getting married in this hospital again ? barbara : no , you are not , because i went over to fashions and i picked up that dress that you saw that you liked so much , so you 'll have something new . meg : but , i -- paul : look , i talked to susan , and your doctor says it 's okay if you stand up , if it 's just for a few minutes . emma : and i brought you this . meg : your mantilla . emma : mm - hmm . meg : mama wore this to all our christenings . emma : hopefully , it will bring you much happiness and many healthy babies . paul : thank you , emma . emma : be a good husband . that 's the only thanks i need . now that -- that was the something old . and here is something borrowed -- family bible . barbara : and this morning , i received a present from will and gwen . paul : you heard from them ? barbara : i did . paul : how are they doing ? barbara : they 're fine . but they heard about sofie and everything we went through with cole . and they knew i 'd be traumatized . they sent me a little present , and i would be honored if you wore it as something blue . meg : it 's lovely . how did you know how much this would mean to me ? paul : you promise me you 'll take it easy , okay ?

[ scene_break ] chris : susan , can i -- can i speak to you for a minute ? susan : i have nothing to say to you . chris : then can you listen , okay ? i 'm worried about alison . susan : are you kidding me ? she does n't need your concern . how many times and in how many ways has she asked you to stay out of her life ? chris : oh , she 's made it very clear , believe me . but she 's exhibiting strange behavior and some troubling symptoms . susan : well , maybe that 's your fault . maybe if you respected her wishes and left her alone , that would help . chris : all i 'm trying saying is i think you should give her a physical , okay ? susan : stay away from my daughter . and now that we do n't work together , stay away from me . [ scene_break ] paul : so , this morning , you asked me for flowers and your mom and beautiful words . and since your mom 's here and there 's flowers -- gorgeous . exquisite . breathtaking . all mine . friendship . romance . passion . hope . forever with me . those are the most beautiful words i could think of . forever with you . meg : i love you so much . you are my everything . you are -- emma : oh ! susan : what happened ? emma : oh , she -- she fainted . i mean , she was only on her feet for a few moments . susan : paul , take that necklace off . it 's in my way . emma : oh , sweetheart . oh . [ scene_break ] margo : why did you -- why did you -- why did you let her get away with this ? tom : well , she did n't . margo : yes , she did , tom . she just walked out of here , and she 's still got shared custody of daniel . tom : did you see your son walk in the courtroom ? margo : yes . tom : did you see where he sat ? margo : so ? he 's still infatuated with her ? tom : so i had to make a decision . i either lose my son or keep them both . margo : oh . explain this to me , tom . tom : casey came by the house earlier and begged me to let her off the hook . margo : what ? so you caved ? tom : no , i came here with every intention of keeping emily as far away from daniel as i possibly could . margo : why did you do this ? tom : because i think i finally started to see the pattern . every time we fight with emily , we win the battle and lose the war . she 'll gon na play the victim no matter what . margo : oh , she always does . i know that . tom : i mean with me , with chris . i finally decided that we do n't have to do any of the heavy lifting around here anymore . i mean , we do n't need to keep her away from daniel or casey . eventually , they 're gon na see the same thing we do and she will alienate herself all on her own . margo : huh . [ scene_break ] emily : you did this for me . casey : i 'm glad i could help . emily : let 's get out of here so i can kiss you . [ emily chuckles ] [ scene_break ] alison : i got a `` c `` on my first test , aaron . that 's not good . aaron : yeah , but it 's not terrible . i mean , think about it . without -- without chris 's help or meg 's help or anybody , you raised your average a whole grade point , studying on your own . you keep that up , you 'll be making b - pluses by the end of the week . alison : you really think so ? aaron : i never lie to you . alison : aaron , i am so sorry i blew up at you . i heard myself saying these horrible things , and the whole time , i was just thinking , `` shut up ! `` aaron : when was the last time you ate ? alison : well , i did n't really feel good this morning , so i skipped breakfast and i really just had coffee . aaron : yeah , well , that 'll make anybody crazy . i 'm gon na make you a sandwich . and i 'll even throw in a virgin piña colada . alison : oh , my hero . [ scene_break ] barbara : you know , susan , before meg fainted , she had her hand on her heart and she -- she looked very distressed . did you hear anything in the stethoscope at all ? susan : were you in any pain ? meg : no . it was more like a flutter . it 's not the first time paul has made my heart race like that . that 's when i got light - headed , and -- and even for a second , i was hallucinating . paul : you have any idea what happened ? susan : actually , i 've found nothing . her heartbeat was a little rapid when i first examined her , but it 's subsided , and everything else looks normal . maybe it was just this second wedding -- jitters . paul : you know what ? this is all -- this is my fault . i think we should have waited until you were 100 % . if you do n't mind , maybe you could give my bride some time to rest . meg : no , no , no ! no . i will feel a lot worse if we do n't finish what we started . [ scene_break ] emily : you gave me back my son , case . [ scene_break ] alison : oh , that was good . aaron : well , i 'd offer you dessert , but i do n't want you to take it the wrong way . alison : well , this is for you . take that any way you want . [ scene_break ] casey : what are you doing ? we 're in public . emily : i know . i know and i do n't care . i love you , casey . i love you , and i do n't care who knows it . [ scene_break ] margo : this is like handing emily a blank check . just you can do whatever you want . we 'll look the other way . tom : just hold on for one second . margo : i hate this . tom : yo , dan , are you here ? margo : i hate this . i hate emily . tom : he must be still at trey 's . margo : i hate that she 's gon na -- that she 's gon na win again . and this is not just about daniel . this is about with casey , too . tom : well , i think we need to just let this thing run its course . margo : really ? do we ? do we just wait until she gets pregnant or they get married or she -- she gives him some horrible sexual disease ? tom : oh , stop it . margo : because the woman is out of control , tom ! who knows what she 's gon na do next ? and as far as her and casey being a couple , i ca n't accept that . i wo n't accept that . tom : and you think that 's gon na make a difference to casey ? he 's a grown man . he 's gon na do what he wants , no matter what his parents say . so if we dig in , we lose him . and that just gives emily another win to add to her list . margo : oh , no . i 'm not gon na give emily another win . i 'm gon na find some way to stop emily , permanently . [ scene_break ] [ alison clears throat ] emily : hi , ali . alison : hey . emily : um , in case you 're wondering , casey and i love each other . and we 're together . so do n't give me any grief about it , okay ?

[ emma clears throat ] barbara : um , you two . hey , you two . take care of each other . you and my son , you be happy , all right ? paul : thanks , mom . emma : oh , darling . and you , young man , do n't you disappoint me . meg : thank you all for today . emma : thank paul . paul : do n't you ever scare me like that again . meg : i could n't help it . paul : you make me believe in happily ever after . i 'm gon na hold you to it .

meg is anxious to leave the hospital , but paul is going to keep her preoccupied by something else , which is guaranteed to put a smile on her face . allison tears into aaron for no apparent reason . aaron is worried about how allison is acting – erratic and moody – it is like she is on drugs . kim worries about chris taking so much time off and offers him a job at the station , but he explains that he is just taking his time before he jumps into something again . he does n't want her to worry . daniel wants his dad to tell him why he does n't want him to be with his mom anymore . emily pleads with margo not to take her to court . margo tells her to give up custody and they wo n't put her profession front and center , but emily wo n't give up daniel . casey pleads emily 's case , but tom wo n't budge . paul goes to sees emma about a favor . they butt heads at first , but then they agree to a truce and she agrees to help him . allison tells aaron to leave her alone because he is not her friend , as chris watches . chris tries to help allison too , but she turns her anger on him . he suggests she have a physical since she is exhibiting strange symptoms , but she wo n't listen to him either . allison fidgets so much that she breaks her bracelet . paul asks meg to marry him again , and then brings in emma and barbara . they are all prepared for a wedding , which thrills meg . meg receives gifts of something old ( a veil of emma 's ) , new ( the wedding dress she liked from fashions ) , borrowed ( family bible ) and blue ( a gift barbara thinks came from gwen ) . paul even convinces meg 's minister to preside over the ceremony . emma jokes with paul about him making it hard for her to dislike him . tom and emily 's hearing starts and tom is prepared to show his evidence , but then he sees casey come in and sit on emily 's side . he changes his mind , much to the courts chagrin and the case is dismissed . margo is furious , as tom explains why he did what he did . allison apologizes to aaron and explains that she did n't know what happened to her . chris tells susan that he is worried about allison and her behavior and health , as susan tells him to leave them all alone . meg and paul 's wedding starts , but meg faints as she is saying her vows to paul . meg finally awakens and admits to feeling off and even hallucinating , but no one suspects it might be from the necklace she was wearing . emily tells casey he was the main reason she still has her son . she kisses him passionately in public and tells him that she no longer cares who knows about them ; she loves him . allison sees them and emily tells her the same thing she just told casey . allison flatly tells them congratulations before she walks off . meg and paul are married . chris receives an unsigned note and gift ; it is a watch and based on what the note said , he assumes it is from his mother . he leaves her a message thanking her for her support , but not mentioning the actual gift . paul and meg revel in their newfound wedded bliss again , as the necklace sits nearby on meg 's bedside table .
<s>[INST] meg : oh . [ meg groans ] paul : are you okay ? meg : oh , yeah , i just forgot about the bullet wound . i hate when that happens . paul : i 'll call the nurse and get you something for pain . meg : no , no , no . it just hurts when i roll over on it . i 'm fine . paul : i 'm gon na call room service , get some coffee . [ meg laughs ] you want coffee ? meg : no . paul : you want pizza ? anything ? what do you want ? meg : yeah , home . paul : you want to go home ? meg : i want to go home . paul : you know you ca n't . they need to observe you for at least another few days . meg : but i feel fine . come on . you 're -- you 're my rich , powerful husband . you 're supposed to be able to give me whatever i want . paul : yeah ? meg : mm - hmm . paul : so , what do you want ? you want balloons ? paul : how about farm animals ? [ meg laughs ] or like little dancing gazelles ? i adore you . meg : beautiful words . you always say beautiful words . is mama here ? paul : no . why ? is that what you want ? meg : you know , i think she 's starting to like you . she said a lot of nice things about you yesterday . paul : nah , she was just humoring the gunshot victim . look , is n't there something else i can get you ? meg : i want mama to like you . it 's really my fault that she missed the wedding . paul : i got somewhere i need to go . but i 'll be back as soon as i can . meg : okay . and then -- and then you will bring flowers and mama and beautiful words . paul : if that 's what you want .

[ scene_break ] kim : what about you ? what are you up to today ? chris : you know , read , eat , sleep . that 's pretty typical for me these days . [ chris chuckles ] kim : i 'm really glad that you 've taken the time to slow down and , uh , you know , think about what you 're gon na do with the rest of your life . but it does occur to me that there might be such a thing as having too much time on your hands . chris : oh , is there ? kim : i just mean that you 've gone from 100 miles an hour to nothing , so -- i mean , is n't it kind of boring to just lounge around all the time ? chris : it 's working for me . kim : okay . okay . if you change your mind , let me know . i could probably find something for you at the -- at the station . chris : why would i want to -- oh , oh , okay . this is coming from dad , is n't it ? [ scene_break ] alison : there 's your coffee . aaron : thanks . where 's my apology ? i guess i 'm not getting one . alison : you do n't deserve one . i know you 're trying to be all encouraging , but do n't , okay ? aaron : you make it sound like a kick in the teeth . alison : sometimes hearing `` you can do it , alison `` every 10 minutes makes me feel like a loser . why do i need a cheerleader for something that everybody else is able to do without even thinking twice about it ? aaron : all i said was that there 's nothing wrong with a `` c. `` and if i keep telling you that you 're gon na make it through school and you 're gon na be a great nurse , that 's not cheerleading , okay ? it 's the truth . alison : you did n't even want me to go back to nursing school . you wanted me to run off to seattle with you and hang out . aaron : that was before i knew how important it was to you . alison : oh , yeah , right . aaron : what 's with your hostility ? alison : i 'm not hostile . it 's not my fault you 're getting on my nerves . aaron : i did n't even do anything . and why are you acting like -- why are you acting all weird , like -- alison : like what ? [ aaron sighs ] aaron : never mind . never mind , okay ? do you -- do you still want to go to the pond and go swimming like we planned before work ? alison : no , no , no . say it . say it . what were you gon na say ? i 'm behaving like what ? aaron : like maybe you 're on drugs again . [ scene_break ] daniel : so , you and mom have to have a court hearing ? tom : well , your mom and i both love you . you do know that . daniel : yeah . so ? tom : so sometimes we do n't agree on what 's best for you . we 're gon na ask a judge to help us figure it out . understand ? daniel : i guess . tom : look , um , i hope this wo n't be necessary , but it 's possible the judge may want to talk to you at some point . daniel : about what ? tom : you know , about your life , stuff that makes you happy . daniel : stuff about mom ? tom : maybe , but nothing you ca n't answer . daniel : today at the court hearing , are you gon na ask the judge to take away mom 's shared custody ? tom : for the time being . daniel : then tell me . casey : tell you what ? daniel : tell me why dad does n't want me to see my mom anymore . [ scene_break ] margo : i have no idea how long this hearing is gon na last . these are active files . they go to griffin . cop : i 'll put them on his desk . margo : okay , i 'm gon na make some more notes on these , but you find me before i leave . cop : will do , lieutenant . margo : please , thank you . emily : clearing your whole day , margo ? the hearing 's gon na take , what , an hour . what are you planning to do afterwards ? margo : go away , emily . emily : you and tom planning to have a big party after you steal my son away from me ? margo : well , the first part of the hearing , where tom makes his statements , is gon na take at least an hour . and then the judge is gon na want to talk to daniel . emily : what ? the judge is gon na want to talk to my son about me ? margo : oh , would you please relax ? i 'm sure she knows what she 's doing . emily : look , i know you loathe me . i get that . margo : you have no idea how much i loathe you . emily : but you love daniel . you love daniel . why would you do this to him ? why would you do that ? if he finds out that -- that i was a prostitute -- margo , please . i 'm begging you . no child should hear that about his mother . margo : one simple solution to that -- do n't fight us . he wo n't find out . [ scene_break ] casey : i just got off the phone with trey jackson . he and his brothers just set up a full - blown interactive gaming center in their house and they want to know if he could come over . daniel : really ? right now ? casey : if it 's cool with dad . daniel : can i , dad ? they got , like , a whole arcade system in their basement . tom : sure . be home for lunch . daniel : yeah . you , uh -- you coming , casey ? casey : i 'll catch you later , man , okay ? [ door opens ] [ door closes ] tom : you had no right to do that . you knew that i was probably talking to him about any questions the judge might have . casey : yes , i know , but -- tom : just trying to get him off so you can talk to him alone ? casey : okay , wait a minute . tom : or maybe trying to spin this custody agreement so that you could turn him against your mother and me ? i 'm not gon na stand for it ! casey : hey ! i want him out of the house so i could talk to you , so he would n't hear . god , i would never mess with his mind by trashing you and mom . and you know what ? maybe you should do the same thing by not trashing emily . tom : my responsibility is to bring him up the best that i can . and that is what i intend to do . casey : by poisoning his mind against his mother ? tom : he 's not gon na hear any stories about what emily did . the story he 'll get is that she and i could n't agree upon his care , so the judge awarded me full custody . casey : do -- do you really think daniel is that stupid ? he 's gon na know that there 's more to this than that . tom : i 'm sure there will be questions . margo and i can handle it . casey : he 's not gon na ask you a damn thing . he 's gon na go back to his boarding school with his questions . and then he and his friends are gon na look on the internet , research the case , and find out everything ! tom : fine . i 'll have the records sealed . casey : okay , that might slow him down , but its not gon na stop him from getting answers . and then who 's he gon na hate ? huh ? his mother for being a prostitute ? you for outing her ? or himself for being the reason everyone knows ? tom : this is all emily 's doing . casey : she 's not doing anything anymore . it was a crazy , self - destructive time in her life , and she snapped out of it and ended it . she is not the same person anymore . tom : really ? so , she sleeps with unknown men for money . she sleeps with other people , including me , before you say it , and now she 's sleeping with you ? i 'm sorry . sounds like the same emily to me . casey : she is still a good mother to daniel . tom : stop bringing up daniel like that 's what we 're fighting about . you 're not here trying to protect your brother . you 're trying to protect what you have going on with emily . [ scene_break ] emily : there 's no need to put this out there where daniel can get a hold of it . margo : then sign over custody to us and there 's no way that daniel will know about your sleazy past from tom or me . emily : i 'm not signing my son over to you , margo . he 'll -- he 'll hate me for abandoning him . is that what you want ? margo : yes . emily : i ca n't believe you could be so heartless . you love daniel . do n't you love him enough to -- to keep him from the pain this is gon na cause him ? margo : do n't you dare question my commitment to daniel . you have damaged my family enough , and it ends today . now . emily : this is n't about daniel . this is all about casey . this is about me and casey . and you ca n't handle it . i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . i do n't want to fight . i am begging you , okay ? right now , what can i do to change your mind ? anything and i will do it . [ margo chuckles ] margo : see you in court . [ scene_break ] casey : so , that 's what it comes down to ? me and emily ? tom : there 's more to it than that . casey : yes , there 's daniel . and he 's a great kid . and that 's partly because of emily . do you really think by cutting his mom out of his life that 's the best thing for him ? tom : that is my decision , yes . casey : a decision you made because of what daniel needs ? or because you got issues with me ? tom : i 'm very clear about what i 'm doing , casey , and why , and it has very little to do with your relationship with emily . casey : okay , i 'll buy that . but what about my other big issues ? i 'm an ex - con . maybe this is n't about daniel . maybe this is about the sons you tried to save and you could n't . [ scene_break ] emma : what do you want ? paul : i want meg to be happy . and on some level , that means i got to get along with you , so i guess we have a problem . emma : yeah , we do have a problem . 'cause i do n't like you . i do n't think you 're a good person . paul : i do n't like you much , either . emma : i 've seen the damage you 've done . i 've seen my daughter thrown in jail . i have seen her lose a job that she loves because of you . i 've seen her jump into a marriage that was doomed all because of you . you have -- you have caused her nothing but anguish . paul : go ahead . do n't be afraid . emma : and every time she has managed to pull away from you on her own , you have dragged her back . no , i do n't like you . i do n't like what you 've done to my daughter . why could n't you just leave her alone ? paul : i 'm never gon na leave her alone . i think it was a mistake to come here and talk to you . [ emma sighs ] emma : paul , i -- i want meg to be happy , too . i know that she needs my blessing . i know that she needs my approval . but how can i give her that when i do n't see anything good in you ? i want to . but i just ca n't . paul : well , meg can . maybe you could take her word for it . emma : do you think that i -- i have been unfair to you ? paul : no , i think that when you look at me , all you can see is my anger and my jealousy , which has been off the charts . emma : and all that 's changed , has it ? paul : loving meg has changed everything . i 've had to learn to be patient . i 've had to learn to have faith that someone like meg could love someone like me . and every morning , i have faith that when i wake up , that she will still choose to be there next to me . emma : can you promise me -- promise me that you wo n't hurt her ? paul : no , but i promise you that i will never hurt her intentionally . and , emma , i promise that i will love her as long as she 'll have me . that 's a promise that i can actually keep . emma : what was the favor you wanted ? paul : you going soft on me ? [ emma chuckles ] emma : no , i 'm just -- i 'm just accepting what is . and i 'm praying to god that he knows better than i do . what is the favor ? paul : my wife wants three presents . and you 're one of them . [ scene_break ] kim : son , come on . your father is concerned about your future . we both are . chris : but he just dismisses the fact that i 've worked on stuff since med school . kim : he knows how hard you 've worked . chris : then why ca n't he understand that i need a little time to figure out what i want to do next ? no , he just sees that as me loafing around . kim : does it occur to you that maybe you 're just a little bit too sensitive ? chris : mom , i 'm a grown man . i pay my own bills . and , yes , i get a little sensitive when my daddy tries to tell me what to do . i just need a little time , mom . maybe a few weeks , maybe a few months . kim : oh . chris : well , think of it as a sabbatical -- time to look back and see where i 've been and decide where i 'm going . kim : okay . [ chris laughs ] chris : it takes as long as it takes or , you know , until i run out of money , whichever happens sooner . [ laughter ] i 'm gon na be fine , okay ? kim : okey - dokey . okay . chris : see you later . kim : yeah . bye . alison : i ca n't believe you think i 'm doing drugs again . aaron : well , you 're practically biting my head off , okay ? and your eyes are doing funny things , and you wo n't stop fidgeting with that little bracelet that your dad got you . what am i supposed to think ? alison : you 're supposed to be my friend . but you 're not , not really . you 're just waiting for me to fail . aaron : what ? since when ? are you crazy ? when ? alison : since always , probably . i just did n't see it before . aaron : okay , you 're upset . and i probably should n't have said a thing about you being on drugs . alison : you know what ? i know you do n't really believe in me , so just stop pretending , okay ? just go away . chris : put this on . alison : i do n't need it . chris : now !

[ emma chuckles ] meg : what are you doing ? paul : waiting for to answer me . will you marry me here , right now ? [ meg chuckles ] meg : how did he talk you into this ? emma : no , he did n't . you did . you love him , so i thought i might as well try to tolerate him a bit . paul : see ? we 're making headway . emma : are you up to another wedding ? barbara : do n't you think this is happening without me . [ laughter ] paul : i 'm still waiting . what do you say ? meg : i do . meg : am i getting married in this hospital again ? barbara : no , you are not , because i went over to fashions and i picked up that dress that you saw that you liked so much , so you 'll have something new . meg : but , i -- paul : look , i talked to susan , and your doctor says it 's okay if you stand up , if it 's just for a few minutes . emma : and i brought you this . meg : your mantilla . emma : mm - hmm . meg : mama wore this to all our christenings . emma : hopefully , it will bring you much happiness and many healthy babies . paul : thank you , emma . emma : be a good husband . that 's the only thanks i need . now that -- that was the something old . and here is something borrowed -- family bible . barbara : and this morning , i received a present from will and gwen . paul : you heard from them ? barbara : i did . paul : how are they doing ? barbara : they 're fine . but they heard about sofie and everything we went through with cole . and they knew i 'd be traumatized . they sent me a little present , and i would be honored if you wore it as something blue . meg : it 's lovely . how did you know how much this would mean to me ? paul : you promise me you 'll take it easy , okay ?

[ scene_break ] john : just so i 'm clear -- you are changing your story , because when you woke up at the hospital , you said you did n't remember anything . you did n't even know victor had been shot . jack : because i had a concussion . but i 'm better now . i got my memory back . you should be happy for me . john : i 'm thrilled . so now you 're saying you remember what happened , even though you were knocked out at the time . jack : not at first . it was thundering . i had my keys out . i heard a noise behind me . i turned and i saw todd . john : you saw him . jack : just a glimpse . that 's when he knocked me out . hit me over the head with a gun . john : but you 're sure it was him . jack : positive . john : so you 're telling me that todd manning knocked you out . is that it ? jack : not even close . i know what happened when he shot my dad . [ scene_break ] aubrey : the police have been looking for the murder weapon . we have to call them . cutter : aubrey -- or should i call you christine , since aubrey 's the name that you used to scam one of llanview 's most prominent citizens ? aubrey : your point ? cutter : my point is that we 're not exactly popular with the police right now . so we show up with the murder weapon , they might try and pin the murder on us . aubrey : what ? we did n't even know victor lord ! why would the police think we had anything to do with his murder ? cutter : because it 's convenient . the press has been screaming for an arrest . and we show up with a murder weapon in our pocket -- aubrey : you mean our porcupine . cutter : you know how they are . they 're relentless . they 'll keep digging and digging until they find something , something that 'll link us to the murder , and then it 's bye - bye , you and me . aubrey : hold on a second , cutter . what is going on ? you 've been acting really weird since your sister got here .

[ scene_break ] nora : i blew it . phylicia : destiny was all set to have the abortion -- with our support . she should be looking at colleges right now , planning her future , and she would be , if nora had n't caught wind of it and convinced her to cancel the procedure . she says to her that she and her husband will raise the child . please . téa : and that 's not something destiny wanted ? phylicia : she had n't even had a chance to think about it . and we do n't need some stranger stepping in . my husband and i are perfectly capable of taking care of our daughter . look , do n't get me wrong -- i feel for nora . i do . but she has no right to come in and just take what she wants . oh , then she shows up with a legal document outlining her rights to her son 's child and -- téa : i see . phylicia : and this is what i really did n't like -- she offered to represent us in the matter . téa : that 's a conflict of interest . phylicia : you think ? i told her we can get our own lawyer , thank you very much . téa : mrs. evans , are you asking me to represent you ? phylicia : oh , no . no , honey . i 'm sorry . you just lost your husband . but before this ? i 'll be honest . i -- i was going to ask you about it . [ scene_break ] destiny : you were there at the buenos dias -- when my mom got all ticked off at mrs. b . dani : yeah , i remember . they were not happy with each other . destiny : but what i do n't get is what my mom wants . i mean , does she want to raise this baby ? or is she just mad that mrs. b is getting all possessive ? dani : what do you want ? it 's your baby . [ scene_break ] blair : do n't you dare blame this on me . where were you , huh ? and i 'm not saying it 's your fault , but it 's not mine , either . as far as i knew , victor was jack 's father . todd : you 've always been jack 's mother , so how could you let something like this happen ? blair : what do you mean , let something like this happen ? i did n't know what was going on . jack was going to school . he was making decent grades . how was i supposed to know that he was picking on shane morasco ? todd : when you did find out , did you do anything about it ? blair : of course , i did something about it . i grounded him . i took away his computer . i made him shut down his myface account . he could n't do anything except come straight home from school . he could go see victor in the hospital , who was in a coma . god , i thought he was just acting out . i thought he was a boy that was afraid he was gon na miss his father , lose his father . i talked to him . i tried to get through to him . i thought that i did . i marched him over to the balsoms ' and made him apologize while i could n't even look at those people 's faces , but it did n't end there . no . he and his buddy set up some kind of trap for shane , yet gigi fell into it , and she died . you think i wanted any of this to happen ? that is my son . [ scene_break ] john : so you say todd knocked you out , and then what ? jack : i 'm lying on the ground , and i see him pick up my keys . john : i thought you were unconscious . jack : no , not totally , just , like , kind of dazed . john : you see him pick up your keys , and then ? jack : he lets himself into the house . he must 've left the door open , because i could still hear him . john : and you 're still lying on the ground dazed . jack : right , and then i heard my dad say something like , `` hello ? `` no answer from scarface , and then i hear him . he says , `` oh , my god , what the hell are you doing here ? `` and then the gunshot . [ scene_break ] todd : i do n't blame you . it 's not your fault . well , not entirely . blame victor . he was with jack for 8 years . 8 years is a long time . it 's enough time to turn any kid into a monster . blair : why do n't you blame your mother here ? what about her in all of this ? she switches the two of you and then brainwashes victor . todd : brainwashes victor to be more like me . is that what you 're saying ... blair : oh ... todd : that whatever victor did to jack , that 's something that i would 've done to jack ? blair : no . you do n't know that . todd : all right . let 's consider the genetics here . i was not much older than jack when i did what we both know i did to marty saybrooke . maybe if somebody 's to blame for jack 's behavior , it 's me . blair : are you actually taking responsibility for something ? [ scene_break ] john : so you heard the gunshot . jack : yeah , loud and clear . john : then what ? jack : i do n't know . must 've been when i passed out . john : somehow you ended up at the hospital . jack : yeah , but i do n't know how i got there . john : you think manning took you ? jack : i do n't know . john : who else could it have been ? jack : i guess it was him . maybe he felt guilty . i do n't know . he 's weird . he 's all nice to sam , but then he kidnaps him , and he kills my dad but then takes me to the hospital ? i do n't know why he does anything . all i know is , it was him . so did i give you enough ? are you gon na arrest him now ? john : you already lied to me once before -- gigi morasco -- and everything you 're telling me right now sounds just a little too ... convenient . jack : what do you mean ? john : you 're changing your story , man . jack : because i remembered . john : yeah , but , see , judges and juries , they do n't really like that , especially when the eyewitness has been mouthing off about how they hated the defendant . jack : you mean todd manning ? yeah . i hate him -- he killed my dad -- but i 'm telling the truth . i 'll testify , whatever you need . john : you 'll testify . you know you 'll have to take the stand . you know what happens then ? that 's when the defense attorneys , they get to break you down . jack : fine . i do n't care . i know what i saw . todd manning hit me over the head with a gun . i heard him shoot my father . i heard my father 's last words . what more do you need ? john : i need you to write it down ... jack : what ? john : everything you just told me . jack : why ? john : that 's how it 's done , jack . you 're an eyewitness . [ scene_break ] todd : you ca n't tell me that it never crossed your mind that jack is the way he is because of me . my father was a pedophile , i 'm a rapist , and jack is torturing little kids and locking women in basements . never made that connection ? you know , the apple does n't fall far from the tree . poor kid never stood a chance , given the cards that he was dealt . blair : do n't say that . no . jack might not be a saint , but he 's certainly better than your father , and he 's better than you . [ scene_break ] john : sign it . sign it . it 's a legal statement . you 're swearing that everything you wrote is true . jack : so are you gon na arrest him now ? john : i 'll have someone drive you home . [ scene_break ] cutter : i 'm not trying to hide anything from you . you got to understand that , all right ? you want to hear about my sister ? i 'll tell you whatever i know after we figure out what to do with this gun . sorry . it 's kind of a conversation stopper . aubrey : ok . true . cutter : you got to believe me . i 'm here for the long haul , just you and me . why do you think i got that stupid job ? i 'm trying to go straight , but if they hear that i got hauled into the station to explain some weapon that i brought on the premises , not good . aubrey : yeah , but what if it 's the real murder weapon ? what if it could help the cops catch the killer ? somebody obviously hid it in this stupid porcupine . cutter : it 's not stupid . it ai n't stupid . aubrey : where did you get it , anyway ? cutter : i got it at the flea market , roxy 's table . she was arguing with echo , so i just put the money down and took him home . aubrey : what were they arguing about ? cutter : hell if i know . aubrey : i 'm just saying , maybe it was about victor lord . maybe they killed him . cutter : those two broads ? aubrey : anything is possible . cutter : in this town , yeah . you 're right , but why would they want victor lord dead ? wait . is n't echo rex balsom 's mother ? aubrey : biological mom , but roxy raised him . cutter : so maybe the gun belonged to rex . he had every reason to want victor lord dead . [ scene_break ] bo : i know where you 're coming from , balsom , because victor had a lot to answer for ... nora : if dorian were here , she 'd be dancing on his grave . bo : and even though you had every right to want to see him at you for this , because you 've come too far to take matters into your own hands and then mess up your life ... [ cell phone chirps ] bo : and shane 's life , and i got to get to the department . there 's been a development in the victor lord case . nora : you 're gon na make me ask . bo : honey , i just got a text , you know ? when i know something , then you 're gon na know something ... and if it 's something really big , then everybody is gon na know . [ scene_break ] cutter : rex blamed victor lord and his son for gigi 's death . aubrey : so rex killed victor . cutter : and roxy and echo hid the gun . aubrey : in a porcupine ? cutter : who 'd look in a porcupine ? aubrey : the person who bought it . cutter : i - i just picked it up . i did n't even talk to anybody . maybe it was n't really for sale . aubrey : oh , they 're gon na be pretty upset when they realize it 's missing . cutter : yeah . so is rex , and he 's gon na want that gun back , and he 's got a ton of money now that he 's a buchanan . aubrey : what are you saying ? cutter : nothing , just that , you know , he 's gon na want the gun back and maybe we should let him know that we have it . aubrey : so you can blackmail him . cutter : blackmail rex ? what are you , crazy ? no . no . i just think we should let him know that we have it and , you know , that we 're on his side . then if he feels grateful , who am i to turn down his generosity ? aubrey : somebody who 's supposed to be going legit , who just gave me that big , long speech about how he 's in it for the long haul . cutter : and i meant it . is it my fault this gun just fell into my lap ? we did n't kill victor lord , and if rex did , he can damn well pay to keep himself out of jail . aubrey : i knew it . i knew you were n't gon na change . cutter : i 'm doing this for you . look at this place . it 's a hell hole . you really want to live like this ? i 'm not gon na get us out working the front desk , and this job interview you 're going for as a waitress -- aubrey : oh , my god , i 've got to get over there . cutter : ok . hey , just go . we 'll deal with this later . aubrey : no . no , no , no . no . no . cutter : we 'll figure it out . aubrey : there is nothing to figure out . you are not blackmailing rex balsom . do you understand me ? i 'm not gon na stick by you while you try to extort money from him . i 'm serious , cutter . you go after him , i 'm out of here .

[ scene_break ] bo : and you know how i feel about witnesses who change their story . john : i 'm with you , and jack hates manning , so he 's got reason to frame him , and that kid is a little punk . we still owe him for what he did to gigi . still , you know , shaun was in here earlier , and he 's got an audio tape of victor 's last moments , you know ? it 's right here , bo , everything that happened in the exchange between the shooter and victor , and jack got those words down verbatim . bo : how would jack know what he said if he did n't hear it himself ? you do n't trust this kid . john : would you ? he spent a lot of time with victor . bo : i know , but still , manning , he had motive and opportunity and no alibi . is there someone else that you like for this ?

[ sniffles ] [ scene_break ] todd : jack , i 'm not done . the only reason that i did n't kill my brother was because of you . i would never give up any chance that i had to be your father . jack : yeah , right . if you believe this guy , you 're a bigger jerk than he is . you 're a murderer . you deserve to be locked in a cell for the rest of your pathetic life . [ scene_break ] john : we need the murder weapon . if we knew the gun that manning took from dorian 's safe is the gun that was used to kill victor lord , at least we 'd have something . bo : but even without the gun , we 've got enough to make the charges stick . you gon na make an arrest ?
original todd goes to talk to blair about how it is that jack has become a bully and responsible for killing a woman . they argue about whether jack is not unlike his rapist father and/or child molester grandfather or whether it 's the last 8 years of being raised by victor or if she has neglected to properly raise jack . meanwhile , jack goes to the station and tells john he now `` knows `` that original todd murdered his father . john is not about to take his word for it but realizes its `` very odd `` that jack would know the exact words that john has heard the two of them saying on the tape recording shaun gave him . little does john know that jack overheard shaun play the tape for starr behind closed doors . john then confirms that to bo and they both realize that he has grounds to arrest original todd for murder .

[ scene_break ] todd : i do n't blame you . it 's not your fault . well , not entirely . blame victor . he was with jack for 8 years . 8 years is a long time . it 's enough time to turn any kid into a monster . blair : why do n't you blame your mother here ? what about her in all of this ? she switches the two of you and then brainwashes victor . todd : brainwashes victor to be more like me . is that what you 're saying ... blair : oh ... todd : that whatever victor did to jack , that 's something that i would 've done to jack ? blair : no . you do n't know that . todd : all right . let 's consider the genetics here . i was not much older than jack when i did what we both know i did to marty saybrooke . maybe if somebody 's to blame for jack 's behavior , it 's me . blair : are you actually taking responsibility for something ? [ scene_break ] john : so you heard the gunshot . jack : yeah , loud and clear . john : then what ? jack : i do n't know . must 've been when i passed out . john : somehow you ended up at the hospital . jack : yeah , but i do n't know how i got there . john : you think manning took you ? jack : i do n't know . john : who else could it have been ? jack : i guess it was him . maybe he felt guilty . i do n't know . he 's weird . he 's all nice to sam , but then he kidnaps him , and he kills my dad but then takes me to the hospital ? i do n't know why he does anything . all i know is , it was him . so did i give you enough ? are you gon na arrest him now ? john : you already lied to me once before -- gigi morasco -- and everything you 're telling me right now sounds just a little too ... convenient . jack : what do you mean ? john : you 're changing your story , man . jack : because i remembered . john : yeah , but , see , judges and juries , they do n't really like that , especially when the eyewitness has been mouthing off about how they hated the defendant . jack : you mean todd manning ? yeah . i hate him -- he killed my dad -- but i 'm telling the truth . i 'll testify , whatever you need . john : you 'll testify . you know you 'll have to take the stand . you know what happens then ? that 's when the defense attorneys , they get to break you down . jack : fine . i do n't care . i know what i saw . todd manning hit me over the head with a gun . i heard him shoot my father . i heard my father 's last words . what more do you need ? john : i need you to write it down ... jack : what ? john : everything you just told me . jack : why ? john : that 's how it 's done , jack . you 're an eyewitness .

[ scoffs ] and do n't forget , you 've already spent some of that dough on sewing machines . how are you fixin ' to pay that back ? darlita : what about you , sally ? you and thomas ? saul : she was fine before he came along . she will be fine after he 's gone . darlita : you love him , do n't you ? then you -- you ca n't lose him . eric : i do n't condone what sally did . she stole from us . she 's very lucky that we spared her from prison . but i think you 've made a questionable decision here . there 's a lot of that going around these days . i 'm head of this family , thomas , and i want you back here at work with us . we need your talent and your expertise now more than ever . steffy : i 'm with granddad . thomas , this has gone on for way too long . and part of me is responsible . you know , i 'm the one who told you that bill was after sally . and i should 've kept my mouth shut . but you know me . i ca n't keep secrets from you . thomas : no , i appreciate you being honest with me , stef . steffy : bill used sally as a pawn in his real - estate deal . and i know that you were trying to help out . i know that you wanted to step in . and i really do admire that . but granddad 's right -- there 's no excuse for what sally did . and i know you two care about each other , but we care about you , and we want you here . thomas : you sure about that ? dad ? steffy : yes , even dad . [ sighs ] eric : look , we understand there 's a strong connection between you and sally . but we need you here , where you belong . steffy : you 're a forrester , thomas . and this is your home . say you 'll come back to forrester creations .
thomas wakes up and finds sally in the kitchen wearing just his pajama shirt . she says she slept fine . they sip coffee while thomas thinks about his getting a job . she just wishes he did not have to be at odds with his family . steffy tells ridge they can not do this collection without thomas . ridge says zende will step up . she says he still needs his son . despite ridge 's objections she wants to call thomas in and talk to him ; this is her problem too . darlita says thomas is their hero . shirley admits he did save the day with his money to oust bill with his real estate stealing scheme . saul still does not like accepting thomas 's money and does not want him around spectra . nicole , accompanied by viv , visit an associate of dr. caspary who comes up with the same diagnosis . it is not 100 % but there is a chance she will not be able to carry a child . thomas takes a call from steffy and she asks if he is free today . he asks if ridge is going to be there . she says yes but she is trying to work a few things out so please come .

[ cell phone rings ] thomas : hmm . sister . hey . steffy : are you free today ? thomas : i just got fired . what do you think ? steffy : i 'm calling granddad for a meeting to discuss that very topic . how soon can you be at the office ? thomas : is dad gon na be there ? steffy : of course . [ sighs ] thomas : then forget it . steffy : thomas , please . i 'm trying to work some things out , okay ? please say you 'll come . thomas : fine . sally : what 'd she say ? thomas : they 're calling a family meeting . sally : they probably want you to come back . thomas : we 'll see about that .
