kate : i do n't have the details of that . but i do know it was one of his mad scientist experiments gone wrong . john : did rolf specifically seek out clyde ? kate : no . clyde started the conversation . then after he introduced himself , rolf realized that he was the father of the necktie killer . and that 's when he announced that will was very much alive . marlena : well , how could he know that ?

do you know what that means ? how about `` love , `` `` honor , `` `` trust `` ? do you know those words ? nicole : okay , look , i never meant for this to happen . brady : you sure ? because you dumped your daughter off with chloe , a daughter that we fought really hard to get back , so you could go have a romantic rendezvous with my brother . nicole : it was n't like that . brady : then tell me what it was like . nicole : eric never should have quit the horton center . i went to the farmhouse to convince him to come back . brady : what did you do to convince him ?

julie : when i showed him that sign , he was thrilled . his eyes sparkled . his face glowed with happiness . but listen , if it 's more important to you to have your name in lights , fine . that 's more important than honoring a true gentleman , a man of great talent . okay , if that 's the way it 's going to be , then you can be the one to break the news to him . roman : [ sighs ] marlena : stefano was still living in salem when will died . maybe he was pulling the strings . roman : but listen . chad was a primary suspect in the necktie killings . stefano was trying to clear his name . if stefano knew that ben was behind the murders ... kate : well , then why would he revive will and keep the identity of the necktie killer a secret ? roman : exactly . if stefano knew that ben was the real killer , he damn well would have gotten chad exonerated . john : well , that 's true to a point , roman . but you got to remember we 're talking about stefano here . he was obsessed with two things . one was playing god with all of our lives , and number two was you , darling . kate : so stefano had rolf revive will and then kept it a secret from everyone just to get revenge on marlena ? roman : you know what ? that is not beyond the realm of possibility . and who else would rolf be working for ? marlena : do you think it 's true ? do you think that rolf revived will ? do you think he 's alive somewhere ?

kate : i do n't have the details of that . but i do know it was one of his mad scientist experiments gone wrong . john : did rolf specifically seek out clyde ? kate : no . clyde started the conversation . then after he introduced himself , rolf realized that he was the father of the necktie killer . and that 's when he announced that will was very much alive . marlena : well , how could he know that ? kate : rolf claims that he 's the one who revived will . victor : i do n't know what you think you heard , but it 's nonsense . bonnie : is that a denial ? victor : i 'm not going to listen to this . bonnie : `` you will tell no one of our plan to kill deimos . do i make myself clear , xander ?

brady : of course you were with my brother . nicole : you already knew . brady : i was worried about you . i could n't get through to you , so i -- i had to call brandon this morning . you should have heard him on the other end of the phone when i asked him about you . he ... had no idea what i was talking about . it was n't hard to figure out after that . you know , nicole , for weeks , you 've been telling me that there was nothing going on between you and my brother . you realize that . nicole : that was the truth . brady : do you know the word `` truth `` ? do you know what that means ? how about `` love , `` `` honor , `` `` trust `` ? do you know those words ? nicole : okay , look , i never meant for this to happen . brady : you sure ? because you dumped your daughter off with chloe , a daughter that we fought really hard to get back , so you could go have a romantic rendezvous with my brother . nicole : it was n't like that . brady : then tell me what it was like . nicole : eric never should have quit the horton center . i went to the farmhouse to convince him to come back . brady : what did you do to convince him ? nicole , i want to hear it from you . i want you to look at me , and i want you to say the words to me . turn around . nicole : i slept with him . roman : this is not possible . will was beyond reviving . gabi found his body . there was no pulse . marlena : and -- and sami and lucas saw him in the morgue . he was dead . john : when is rolf claiming he revived will ? kate : i mean , i wish i could tell you , but i -- apparently , all he said was that he did it . roman : well , and then what ? i mean , the guy comes up with this crazy story . there 's got to be more to it . what happened to will ?

i know . and the really insane thing is , clyde really believed that rolf was telling the truth . roman : yeah , well , i 'm not sure i 'm ready to trust a sociopath and a crazy doctor . kate : no , i understand . i understand that you 're skeptical . i am too . but then i keep going back to that one question . why would he make it up ? john : i do n't know . does n't add up . and supposedly rolf had left town years ago . why would he just happen to be back here when ben attacked will ? i mean , it 's highly unlikely . roman : and why would he take it upon himself to do something like that ? why , huh ? marlena : well , he wouldn't . not on his own . not unless he was still following orders from stefano . victor : how should i know who killed deimos ? bonnie : would you tell me if you did know ? victor : you think i would have let sonny spend all that time in jail if i knew ? that 's what this is all about , is n't it ? you 're upset . i understand that . bonnie : of course i 'm upset . my sweet boy had to stay behind bars while you sat in your comfy chair , drinking your scotch , plotting to off your creepy brother . you could go to prison for that , you know .

what do you need me to understand ? that you 're a liar ? i get that . you know , for weeks , maybe even months , nicole , you 've been telling me that -- that there 's nothing going on between you and my brother , that i 've been misreading everything , that i 've been misinterpreting everything , everything that 's been in front of my face . nicole : i swear to you nothing happened between eric and me until last night . eric told me how he felt . brady : and then you hit the sack , right ? that 's when you did it ? all that passion just overwhelmed the two of you ? you had to do it ? yeah ? nicole : i know what i did was wrong . brady : so -- so what ? what do you want to do now ? you want me to forgive you ? you want us to figure out a way to work past this , huh ? oh , you got to be -- you got to be kidding me . nicole : i want ... i want to be with him . i love eric , and i -- i want to be with him . brady : you love him ? nicole : brady , the last thing i ever wanted to do was hurt you . you have been my best friend . you 've fought for me and holly . you helped us run to canada . and when i was kidnapped by xander , you -- brady : i sent my brother to save you . hell , i threw him into your arms . nicole : no . it was n't like that . i was still so angry with eric . i hated him for what he did to daniel . brady : oh , yeah . fine line between love and hate , is n't there ? nicole : i realized that anger was just a wall and i could n't admit to myself that i love the man that killed daniel . brady : but you can now . you do n't need me anymore , do you ? you have your daughter . you can -- you can move on , ca n't you ? is that what you want to do ? nicole : brady . i never used you . and i will always be grateful for everything you 've done . brady : like covering up the fact that you murdered deimos ? victor : if this is your misguided idea of revenge , i do n't care how much justin and sonny love you . you mention one word of this to anyone -- bonnie : you 'll what ? send xander after me too ? victor : what has gotten into you ? i apologized for sonny . i apologized to sonny . give it a rest . now i got heartburn . bonnie : oh , victor , i do n't mean to upset you , all right ? i was just thinking of the possibilities of what could happen if something like this got out . i 'd never say anything . we 're family . victor : loyalty is very important to this family . bonnie : and you have mine . there 's just one tiny thing i need you to do for me in return . victor : what ? bonnie : divorce maggie . and marry me . julie : i know it was a bit impetuous when we bought this place . it all happened so fast . there was no time to talk things through . but , chloe , dear , if you have had a change of heart , i 'll find a way . i 'll be more than happy to buy you out . chloe : no , no , no , you 're not doing that . you are not taking my dream away from me . julie : okay . then we 're stuck with each other . we can either bicker like congress , or we can work together and make some decisions together . chloe : well , okay . let 's start with the name . julie : okay . no - brainer . doug 's place evokes beautiful memories of salem 's history . and it has an aura of class . chloe : well , how about an aura of fun or cool or hip ? club chloe would promise all that . that 's where the money and revenue is , not in memories and history . julie : clue chloe sounds like a diva 's vanity trip to me . chloe : well , i think it sounds like a perfect name , so it stays . julie : i have already told doug it 's going to be named doug 's place . chloe : well , maybe you should tell him that you did n't consult with your partner first . julie : okay , partner . you can be the one to break his heart . chloe : me ? julie : when i showed him that sign , he was thrilled . his eyes sparkled . his face glowed with happiness . but listen , if it 's more important to you to have your name in lights , fine . that 's more important than honoring a true gentleman , a man of great talent . okay , if that 's the way it 's going to be , then you can be the one to break the news to him . roman : [ sighs ] marlena : stefano was still living in salem when will died . maybe he was pulling the strings . roman : but listen . chad was a primary suspect in the necktie killings . stefano was trying to clear his name . if stefano knew that ben was behind the murders ... kate : well , then why would he revive will and keep the identity of the necktie killer a secret ? roman : exactly . if stefano knew that ben was the real killer , he damn well would have gotten chad exonerated . john : well , that 's true to a point , roman . but you got to remember we 're talking about stefano here . he was obsessed with two things . one was playing god with all of our lives , and number two was you , darling . kate : so stefano had rolf revive will and then kept it a secret from everyone just to get revenge on marlena ? roman : you know what ? that is not beyond the realm of possibility . and who else would rolf be working for ? marlena : do you think it 's true ? do you think that rolf revived will ? do you think he 's alive somewhere ? john : well , i think we 're all aware that rolf is capable of pulling off the impossible . kate : he brought you back from the dead . maybe he did the same with will . marlena : what do you think ? is our grandson alive ? copd makes it hard to breathe . roman : clyde and rolf are n't much of a foundation to build truth on . john : i 'm with you on that , roman , but i think everybody needs to think about just what rolf has accomplished under stefano 's orders . marlena : yeah . he turned -- he turned hattie into an exact replica of me . john : yeah . kate : he genetically engineered cassie and rex . he brainwashed them and you , john . marlena : more than once . john : chips in the brain . put a chip in hope 's brain , thought she was princess gina . roman : okay , so this guy has pulled off some diabolically crazy stuff . as kate pointed out , he brought you back to life after everybody thought you were dead in that car accident . john : only one way to get to the truth here . we got to go to statesville and talk to rolf . kate : well , you ca n't do that . he 's not there .

[ scene_break ] dante : why do n't you tell me what happened , julian ? a high - end car like that has got to have an anti - theft device on it . julian : well , you 're right . it does . except it was n't locked because my driver failed to do that when he stepped away . pete : it was only for a few minutes . dante : and you would be ? pete : pete inglis . dante : he left the keys in the car ? pete : i was coming right back . julian : yeah , you know what ? let 's just cut to the chase , because we both know where you can start your investigation . dante : oh , okay . where ? julian : with your father . because sonny corinthos -- he did this to harass me . dante : so you think sonny 's in the business of stealing cars now ? julian : i think he would do anything to piss me off and to make my life miserable , yeah . dante : all right . tell you what , i 'll keep that in mind , and i 'll start over there . i 'll ask around and see if anyone saw anything , all right ? julian : you do that . dante : [ sighs ] molly . hey . tj . what 's up ? i 'm here on business . i do n't really have time to chat . so ... molly : yeah , we know . tj : can we just talk outside for a minute ? it 's about mr. jerome 's car . i think i know who might have taken it . dante : who might have taken it ? tj : morgan .

[ scene_break ] carly : kiki . what are you doing here ? kiki : actually , i 'm looking for morgan . um ... i 've been trying to reach him all day , but he 's not answering his phone , and i thought he might be here . carly : yeah , i tried calling him earlier , but he did n't pick up . i just assumed he was with you . kiki : uh , no . i have n't seen him since this morning . sonny : mm . kiki : he told me about getting kicked out of pcu . he was pretty upset . he did n't really want to talk about it . carly : yeah , he was upset . and that 's why i assumed -- well , i hoped -- he was with you , because i know when he gets upset , he runs to you . and he clearly did n't really want to spend time with his father and me , so ... sonny : all right . let 's just -- look . [ sighs ] i want to tell you that i have n't been able to tell you that morgan always tells me how much he appreciates you being in his corner . when the going gets tough , we know how hard that can be . and i speak for both of us . we appreciate what you 've done for our son . carly : kiki . is everything okay with you and morgan ?

[ scene_break ] tracy : sweetheart ? dillon : mom . hey . what are you doing here ? tracy : oh , i kind of figured i 'd find you here , trying to avoid thinking about your father . dillon : that 's part of the reason , yeah . tracy : how 's it going ? dillon : mixed results . how are you doing ? tracy : i 'm fine . i just was concerned about you . i did n't want you to be alone . dillon : well , i was n't . i 'm okay , mom . really . in the middle of this nightmare with dad , something happened . something that i 've been wanting to happen for a long time . tracy : well . do tell . i could use some good news . dillon : well , i 'm not sure you 're gon na consider it good news . i mean , i hope you do . i know kiki is n't your first choice for me . tracy : is this about kiki ? dillon : she makes me happy , mom . and tonight , we finally decided to be together .

[ scene_break ] jack : how do you know my cousin meg ? nick : she was hiding out in the cabin that just happened to be smack in the middle of where paul ryan made a cell phone call to emily . jack : what makes you think she was hiding out ? nick : well , we found her alone , in the area that we were searching . she said that she needed some `` downtime , `` needed to get away from it all . i do n't know , it was about something that happened to her ? jack : yeah . you know , she had a rough couple of weeks , yeah . she got fired from her job at the hospital , and she lost her nursing license to boot . nick : gee , that sounds pretty rough . what do you think of all that ? jack : do n't treat me like a witness , nick . do n't ask me questions when you already know the answer . nick : all i know is , she had a prior relationship with paul ryan , and he got her involved in some baby scheme . jack : yeah . nick : it 's my understanding meg had faked some blood tests . jack : she 's not proud of it . nick : whatever . all i 'm saying is , she was mixed up with paul for a while , all right ? then he and his fiancée destroyed some evidence . he gets arrested , now he 's on the run , and now meg 's hiding out in a cabin in the woods ? jack : where are you headed with this ? nick : does n't it seem to reason that if she 's willing to help him once , she 's willing to do it again . jack : no , not very likely . it does n't make any sense . she lost everything she cared about because of that guy . my guess is , if she told you she was up at that cabin to get away from her problems , it 's probably as simple as that . nick : it 's that `` probably `` thing that always trips me up . jack : okay , nick , this is -- you 've got to go where the case leads you . i understand that . but i think you 're wasting your time heading in the wrong direction with this meg thing . nick : i understand that you have to sympathize with her . jack : yeah ? why 's that ? nick : well , you 're her cousin . what did you think i meant ? jack : are we done here ?

[ scene_break ] jason : so are you ready to tell me how you ended up wet , falling from a building ? sam : okay . all right . so this guy hires me because he wants me to catch his wife cheating . it 's the last thing he wants , but it 's the nature of the business , right ? so i wind up following her to the metro court , and i find out that she 's got a spa appointment . so naturally , i make one for myself , which explains why i was in a robe . because i had to get out of my clothes . which was a good thing , because it landed me in the locker room . i was able to sit right next to her and strike up conversation . and i told her something like i was the wife of the raisin king of secaucus or something like that . jason : wow , why would you say that ? sam : i do n't know , i had to get her attention . and i wanted her to listen . i mean , you would question that , too , would n't you ? okay . so anyway , i literally turn around for like one second , turn back , she 's gone . i 'm like , where 'd she go ? okay , there she is . she 's going through the back door . so i follow her , in my robe , of course , up to her room . i wait there for like two minutes . she 's in and out . she leaves really quick , so i wind up picking the lock . i get into the room , i 'm looking around to see if there 's anything that i can find , and she comes back . so i wind up running into the bathroom , and guess what she does ? she comes into the bathroom . i jump into the shower . then she puts her hand in the shower to turn on the water , opens up the curtain , screams bloody murder , and her girlfriend comes in . jason : wait , wait . her girlfriend ? sam : yes , her girlfriend . as in lover . so thankfully i had the camera around my neck , and i was able to snap a picture for hubby . but girlfriend tries to snatch the camera off of me . we 're kind of in a wrestle , and she grabs my sleeve , i wind up getting out of it , and i 'm now in my underwear . and then , i 've got to jump out of the bathroom window , and like magic , there you are , standing there . nice timing , by the way . jason : and what if i had n't been there ? what -- sam : you were . so that 's really all that matters . and , you know , i kind of have been thinking about it , and if some stranger was in my bathroom , i would probably attack them , too . all that matters -- i got my picture . that is it . jason : are you sure this is how you want to make a living ? [ scene_break ] maxie : johnny , please stop ! you 're going to kill him . no , do n't . do n't go . johnny : you okay ? maxie : no . johnny : it 's okay . it 's over . no one 's going to hurt you . spinelli : let her go , disgusting stalker -- maxie : spinelli . spinelli : what have you done to upset maximista ? [ scene_break ] jax : i 'd rather not have another go - around with you . sonny : really ? then why are you in my living room ? jax : claudia already said . i was trying to get her to distract you so you 'd spend a little bit more time with her and the baby instead of stressing out carly . sonny : okay , my position has not changed . you are risking carly 's life by demanding she has this baby . jax : you do n't seem to be able to grasp the fact that there 's only one person who can make that decision , and that 's carly . she 's made it . sonny : all right , all right . jax : okay ? and i 've accepted that . and fighting her is no good for her health . you need to understand that . because us going at each other for the next nine months is not good for anyone , okay ? so we 're just going to have to agree to disagree and move on . sonny : no , what you 're trying to say , translation , is , you want me to do what you want . but i 'm not going to do that . jax : you have a think about it , sonny . if you really care about carly , you 'll see it my way . sonny : everything 's his way . that 's all he 's -- you know . `` see it my way , see it my way . `` claudia : okay , look , sonny -- sonny : what about my way ? claudia : i would never side with him against you while he was in the room , but it 's just you and me now , and i have to be honest he 's right . [ scene_break ] maxie : no , spinelli . you 've got it wrong . johnny was n't attacking me ; he was trying to save me . some guy came out of nowhere and i tried to fight him off , but he was way too strong . johnny : i was on my way to kelly 's and i heard screaming . so i ran down here , saw maxie struggling with this guy , so i taught him a lesson . spinelli : where is he now ? johnny : ran off . spinelli : this is unthinkable . you could 've sustained serious trauma . maxie : no , it 's okay . i 'm fine now . i 'm a little shaky , but it 's done . spinelli : thanks to the timely intervention of the mob prince . johnny : timing 's everything . spinelli : yeah , and clearly the jackal 's is sorely lacking . maxie , i have failed you egregiously . you warned me that this could happen . you even asked for my protection , and i left you alone to face deadly peril . look , a mere apology is not even -- can not even begin to express my abs -- maxie : i do n't want you to feel bad . that 's the last thing i wanted . i knew you would come , spinelli , and you did . spinelli : yeah , but johnny came first . so now i have to set aside my self- disappointment and thank the mob prince for his timely intervention . if you could take maxie home -- maxie : no , you could take me . spinelli : no , no . you 've endured enough indignity . just go with the one who effected your rescue . i 'll stay here and look for clues as to the identity of your attacker . maxie : spinelli , you do n't have to do that . spinelli : no , i know , it 's but a paltry effort , but being that i could not protect or defend you , it 's the least i can do . [ scene_break ] patrick : the only thing i know about love is the fact that i do n't know anything about love . i mean -- okay . so , i think , personally , i 've made some progress in the situation . when i first got to port charles , i thought love was an excuse to get a woman in bed . or some abstract concept guys would make up to kind of cover up the fact that they were whipped . elizabeth : you are such an unapologetic pig . patrick : wow . easy . elizabeth : it 's true , and you know it . you 're every woman 's worst nightmare . it 's no wonder robin could n't stand you . patrick : yeah , yeah . well , she worked a miracle , did n't she ? and somehow , this tiny woman with a big mouth got under my skin and stayed . i do n't know . you know , she made me realize all the things i did n't think i wanted , like commitment and family . turns out that 's what i wanted all along , you know ? and i still do . i guess that 's why with robin gone , nothing seems to make sense anymore . well , that 's it . that 's the end of my wallow in self - pity . i 'm supposed to be helping you here . elizabeth : you did . you reminded me how rare true love is . and how easy it is to lose . [ scene_break ] claudia : i know that you do n't like hearing this , but i 'm going to give it to you straight . okay , carly 's pregnancy is up to her to decide whether or not she wants to carry that baby to term , and she 's apparently made that decision already , sonny . why ca n't you just respect that ? why do n't you leave carly and jax alone ? sonny : it 's not that simple . we 're talking life and death here . claudia : it is simple . i do n't see how it 's complicated . she 's pregnant . she has a blood disorder that makes it a risky pregnancy , and she ca n't be stressed . so you fighting with carly is putting both of them at risk . right ? you need to back off . and it 's not like you do n't have other things to think about . michael 's experimental surgery is coming up , and you have this little baby right here . and this little baby is starting to feel kind of neglected . sonny : okay . i do n't want to talk about it anymore . and i just want you to be clear that that baby growing inside of you is as important to me as any other child . and , you know , never doubt that , okay ? claudia : okay . thanks . i 'm pregnant . i still ca n't believe i 'm pregnant . sonny : it 's pretty wild . claudia : it 's crazy . i did n't ever think that i would -- sonny : hey . claudia : hello , guard ? olivia : i came as soon as i got your message . what 's going on ? claudia : oh , i 'd like to know , too . why would you invite her here at this time of night ? sonny : claudia , go upstairs , because i got to speak to her in private . claudia : oh , really ? do i have a choice ? sonny : not really . and do n't try to listen to what we 're saying when you 're on top of the stairs . claudia : okay , good . drop dead . olivia : looks like you 've got some damage control on your hands . sonny : do n't worry about that . i need help . and i know that you 're the only one that can give it to me . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i was just thinking about robin and how scared she must be . because her whole life just spiraled out of control so much that she pushed away the only person who really loved her . at least she had a legitimate reason . patrick : are you blaming yourself for your breakup with lucky ? because , elizabeth , from where i could tell , he was a pretty big contributor . elizabeth : yeah , lucky had a drug addiction . it changed who he was . once he got sober , he was the same old lucky that i 've always known . but by then , i was in love with jason . and i lied to lucky about it , and i married him anyway . see , there 's always this breaking point where no matter how much you love someone , or no matter how much you want to be with them , when too much damage is done , it 's impossible to be honest . and that 's what i did to lucky . patrick : well , does lucky get to weigh in ? i mean , you know , maybe he sees it differently . [ knock on door ] elizabeth : lucky . [ scene_break ] dale : hey , man , have you seen a hot blonde around here anywhere ? spinelli : i actually know several that fit that description . dale : tell me about it . i should 've known better than to trust a magazine chick . spinelli : magazine chick ? dale : yeah , crazy broad wanted me to stalk her . spinelli : i 'm sorry . could you provide further clarification ? dale : it was a set - up . so some guy she knows comes stumbling on the scene to play hero . i was n't interested at first , but she said the idiot could n't hurt a fly . so i guess she changed her mind . [ scene_break ] maxie : such an idiot . big news flash , right ? i thought i came up with the perfect plan , but it could not have gone any worse . johnny : plan to do what ? maxie : you know how spinelli is always saying that he wants to feel manly ? well , i wanted to be the person who made him feel that way , so i hired someone to stalk me . johnny : you got to be kidding me . maxie : i was waiting for the guy that i hired to show up when that freak you jumped showed up instead . johnny : and really attacked you . maxie : i hate to think what would have happened if you had n't been there . why is it whenever i need help , you are always around ? [ scene_break ] sam : you sure you want to stick around ? typing a surveillance report is n't exactly compelling viewing . jason : yeah , i 'll make sure the angry girlfriend does n't come back here and track you down . sam : thank you . i 'm really grateful for the rescue , but i think the danger has passed . and besides , my car is here , so -- jason : oh , yeah , yeah . if you 're sure . sam : yeah . jason : okay . sam : could i keep your jacket ? i 'll drop it off tomorrow . jason : no , absolutely not . yeah , of course you can . only because you solved your first case . and i know spinelli 's going to be very excited . sam : well , i think he might be the only one excited right now . i do n't want to tell this guy that his wife was caught cheating on him . jason : sometimes it 's better not to ask the question if you do n't want to hear the answer . sam : wow , that was almost profound . if i actually thought you believed it -- but you always want the truth , even if it hurts . jason : i just got the truth . and i really have no idea what to do with it . [ scene_break ] olivia : you know i 'm happy to help you , sonny , if i can . sonny : yeah , you can . i 'm sure you know where carly is . olivia : well , yeah . that kind of goes with the territory . she 's my boss , and she 's married to my other boss -- sonny : okay , do n't do that . do n't do that with me . look , i 'm not looking to fight with jax anymore . he actually -- you missed him . he came in here , he was trying to work claudia , i did not even punch him . olivia : oh , you did n't even punch him . sonny : no . olivia : sonny , you 're such a good boy . did you want a gold star for your forehead ? sonny : no . what i want is for you not to be on alert because of me . olivia : okay . i would like to believe that that 's true , but sue me if i 'm not entirely convinced , okay ? sonny : okay , listen to me . you know i do n't start trouble for the sake of starting trouble . i do n't want carly to end this pregnancy because i 'm jealous or sadistic . the reason i 'm doing it is because i do n't want my sons to lose their mother . now listen to me . sometimes carly can be bullheaded , she does things without thinking , and she needs a voice of reason . olivia : and you think you 're the voice of reason here . sonny : all i 'm saying is that i need to talk to carly away from jax . and i know you can make that happen . olivia : sonny -- sonny : just do it for me . olivia : sonny . sonny : remember the old times . olivia : sonny , sonny , look it , you know -- i respect that you 're sincere , okay ? but carly and jax both came to me specifically to ask me not to tell you carly 's whereabouts . sonny : all right . olivia : okay , no , look , look . if i thought for one second that you could do something to help out the situation , you know that i would love to give you what you want . but i got to be honest . i think they both have real good reason to want to keep you away . [ scene_break ] johnny : come here . [ thunder ] johnny : there . maxie : well , here you are again , my hero . johnny : you sound thrilled about that . maxie : i am beyond grateful for what you did up here . it 's all the rest of it i 'm not so sure about . johnny : hmm . so why do n't you think about it ? maxie : what does that mean ? johnny : i 'm asking you -- maxie : how i feel about you ? johnny : yeah . maxie : okay . i like you . i think that you 're sexy and edgy and pent - up . you 're explosive , like we saw tonight , so obviously i 'm attracted to you . but i love spinelli . he 's my best friend , and i 'm doing everything i possibly can to try to get us back on track , so i really do n't want to do anything that would jeopardize that . johnny : and if spinelli were n't in the picture ? maxie : then we would still have lulu . and yes , she gets on my very last nerve , but lulu is like the closest thing i have to a real friend who is n't related to me , so i 'd have to kiss that goodbye , and we would have to subdivide the apartment again . no offense , i just -- i do n't think just jumping into bed with you to see what it would be like would be worth the cost . but if you asked me again tomorrow , my answer could change . [ knock on door ] [ maxie sighs ] maxie : spinelli ! oh , my god . spinelli : please do n't muddy the waters with your preplanned prevarication . just give me an honest answer , if you are capable . did you set me up ? [ scene_break ] sam : i 'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that claudia is the reason for that look on your face . jason : yeah , and some other stuff . sam : well , the last time we spoke , you said that you were n't very sure if you had proof whether or not she was involved in michael 's shooting . jason : i still do n't , but now i am convinced . i mean , i got the drop on jerry at the 10th street parking garage , and i was going to take him for a drive and get some answers . i pushed the remote to his car and his car exploded . now , right before , he said i was n't going to like what he had to tell me , and there was just something about the way he said that to me . sam : and of course , jerry 's gone . any leads ? jason : nothing . sam : is there any situation this guy ca n't get himself out of ? jason : i know , it 's unbelievable . it 's unbelievable . jerry could be anywhere at this point , and he 's the only one who can confirm the truth about claudia . sam : please tell me you did n't get off that gurney and go after him . please tell me you stayed long enough for a doctor to check you out , jason . jason : i 'm fine . sam : you always say that , and necessarily , it 's not always true . jason : well , i was good enough to catch you falling from the building . sam : you had no choice . i would have crushed you . jason : yeah , right . sam : did i remember to thank you for your amazing timing ? jason : you 're welcome . sam : why were you there , anyway ? jason : i was going to meet with bernie , and i just decided to take a walk , kind of clear my head , and try to figure out exactly what -- what to do . how am i supposed to tell sonny that i am convinced that his wife is responsible for putting michael in that coma ?

[ scene_break ] johnny : you two need some privacy ? hey , you remember that speech you gave me about maxie , how special she is she needs to be cherished ? i hope you can follow your own advice . [ door closes ] maxie : okay , the guy that you talked to was obviously the photographer 's assistant that i know from work , but i just wanted you to see me in danger , spinelli , so that you wanted to help me . spinelli : right , and since you have zero faith in my ability to do that , you hired someone to pretend to be hurt by my ineffectual efforts . the fact that you went to such lengths to dupe me into thinking that i could be your hero , when clearly , johnny will forever claim that title , is both saddening and distressing . maxie : no , spinelli , that 's what you 're missing . yes , johnny might have saved me tonight , but you saved me first , every day , by just believing in me . so , yes , i 'm going to lie and bribe and do whatever it takes to get you back in my life , because i miss you . i miss the person who makes me believe that i 'm actually a good person . i miss the guy who makes me laugh and look forward to what the day might bring . i miss the guy that i love most in this world , and i 'm tired of you shutting me out . please , spinelli , just come back to me . spinelli : the only thing that today proved was how easily you can still manipulate me . i 'm sorry , maxie , but i wo n't hang around waiting for the next time you need a stooge . [ scene_break ] lucky : you know , when i saw you and nikolas kissing at the hospital the first time , i thought that was bogus . compared to the two of you at jake 's , it just -- i knew that was for real . so rebecca and i went back to her place , and i thought if i slept with her , it would help distract me from you . elizabeth : oh , my god , did you ? lucky : no , i could n't . it just would n't be respectful to anyone , especially rebecca . she 's a great person who deserves someone who 's into her , but that 's just not me . so if nikolas tells you that rebecca and i were having sex , it did n't happen . elizabeth : what , nikolas ? lucky : nikolas , he showed up at rebecca 's , right after we agreed that we were making a mistake , and he just took off before we could tell him that nothing happened . elizabeth : okay , okay , can we just go back to the part where moving on is n't working for you ? lucky : okay . elizabeth : i mean , that 's a good thing , right ? it 's not something that you wish you could just get over and forget about ? lucky : it 's just not possible . elizabeth : i 'm asking you if you want it to be . lucky : no . elizabeth : good . that 's good , because moving on is n't really working for me , either . [ scene_break ] nikolas : let me save you the effort , rebecca , because i know how this goes . i am obsessed with my dead wife , okay ? and i 've brought you nothing but misery . i pushed my way into your life , made your cancer scare all about me and my twisted need to relive the past with emily . and whatever feelings that you may have had for me were crushed when helena came around and i turned on you , right ? i 'm just a problem that you do n't need right now , especially when my much saner brother is just waiting to pick up the slack . rebecca : are you done speaking for me yet ? because none of that is what i came here to say . lucky and i did n't sleep together . you walked in -- uninvited , i might add -- just as we decided not to . he wants elizabeth . he finally admitted that tonight . and , god help me , i 'm attracted to you . [ scene_break ] jason : so after i left the hospital , i went to see claudia , and she was nervous and really defensive . sam : well , i mean , is n't she always ? jason : well , yeah , but not like this . i mean , she was definitely covering something , so i started to ask around , and i found out that this zacchara lackey named fredo genovese suddenly dropped out of sight . guess what he does ? sam : explosives ? jason : claudia knew jerry was coming back . sam : oh . jason : so , you know , maybe she met with him , i do n't know . maybe -- i would n't put it past jerry if he told her he would be quiet about her connection to michael 's shooting . sam : why ? jason : why ? because jerry always protects jax , always , always . he knows his brother 's happiness rides on carly never knowing that jerry had something to do with michael 's shooting . so jerry wants claudia 's silence as much as she wants his . sam : yeah , but why would claudia want to kill jerry if he 's so motivated to keep quiet ? jason : would you trust jerry jacks ? sam : all right , all right , good point . jason : okay , right , so maybe she wanted to make sure that he was n't going to change his mind . i mean , does this make sense to you ? sam : except claudia is pregnant with sonny 's baby , and you ca n't tell him any of this . [ scene_break ] claudia : please tell me you 're not about to fall for the oldest trick in the book . olivia left her phone here so she would have a chance to come back and see you . sonny : that 's crazy . olivia does n't even think like that . claudia : yeah , olivia -- that woman thinks like that . sonny : i 'll be right back . i 'm not going to have a fight with you right now . claudia : you 're going to olivia 's right now ? you 're really going to leave me ? wait a minute , i 'm sorry -- what about dinner ? sonny : you 're going to be hungry tomorrow , right ? we 'll cook dinner , we 'll have a good time , we 'll do whatever you want to do . claudia : why ca n't max take her her phone ? sonny : because max ca n't get olivia to reveal where carly is . claudia : neither can you . sonny : if at first you do n't succeed , you try , try , try again , right ? claudia : okay , good , you 're -- let me get something straight . you 're going to leave your pregnant wife home alone here , starving , so that you can drive through the pouring rain to bring your ex - girlfriend her cell phone -- a woman who has a crush on you ? wait , sonny , i 'm supposed to be okay with that ? sonny : okay , first of all , she does n't have a crush on me . second of all , your hormones are raging , and this is not a time to have a fight , because i do n't want to fight with you . i 'll be back shortly . [ scene_break ] [ thunder ] nikolas : what ? rebecca : well , you heard me . i 'm not happy about any of this , nikolas . i mean , you 're not easy . you 're obsessed with your dead wife . you live in this creepy mausoleum . you 've got batty relatives running around all over the place , making false accusations and threatening people . i could save myself a lot of hassle and just move on , but somehow i 'm not able to . and in spite of the fact that you might possibly be stark raving mad , or , i do n't know , maybe because of it , you 're , you know , one of the most fascinating men i 've ever met .

[ mugger groans ] [ scene_break ] lucky : this night has not turned out the way i 'd hoped . rebecca : sorry , i should have locked the door . which does n't excuse nikolas . he had no right to just barge in here like he owns the place . lucky : that 's the thing ; he usually does own the room he barges into . rebecca : yeah , the rich are different , that 's for sure . lucky : listen , i apologize . rebecca : why ? lucky : i feel like i misled you , and i did n't follow through . rebecca : hey , i was there , too . it was mutual . all of it . look , we might as well clear the air now . all right ? i mean , now 's as good a time as any . lucky : go ahead . rebecca : i really like hanging out with you . you 're fun , you 're smart , and you 're great to look at . lucky : i 'm flattered , but i 'm sensing a `` but . `` rebecca : but nikolas helped me through one of the most terrifying and defining moments of my life . we connected in a really profound way , at least while it was going on . i do n't know what 's going on between us now . i do n't know . it seems like immediately after the cancer scare , we just sort of lost everything that we had gained . alexis started accusing me of running some scam with that nut job , helena . and nikolas not only did n't defend me , but he kind of bought into it . i guess it really hurt my feelings . i wanted to hurt him back . lucky : you can stop . i get the picture . rebecca : lucky , i feel horrible . i mean , you 're a really nice guy , and i should have never used you like that . lucky : you know , somewhere i knew that we could never really take this relationship that far . and you were right about elizabeth . i still think i have feelings for her . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : oh , my couch . oh . feels so good . [ knock on door ] elizabeth : seriously ? i 'm coming . just a minute . patrick : hey . i know i keep saying i 'm not going to use you again , but surprise , surprise , i 'm in a bind . elizabeth : come on in . patrick : thank you . there 's a two - hour window tomorrow that no one 's available to watch emma . matt and i both have surgeries , judy 's busy , and mercedes is getting a root canal or something . elizabeth : oh , ouch . patrick : yes . so i will pay you $ 1 million if you can watch emma from 1 : 00 to 3 : 00 . elizabeth : a million dollars ? are you serious ? a mill -- i ca n't say no to a million dollars . patrick : are you okay ? you seem a little blurry . elizabeth : oh , well , if that 's your polite way of asking me if i 've been drinking -- patrick : okay , i 'm sorry . you 're probably just a little bit tired . elizabeth : then the answer is yes . yes , i went out drinking tonight . do n't worry , the kids are with my grandmother and i was free to go to jake 's and make a complete fool of myself . patrick : yeah , i know that feeling . elizabeth : yeah , but that 's you . this is me . i 'm elizabeth webber , self- righteous paragon of virtue with feet of clay . patrick : wow . you really have been drinking , have n't you ? elizabeth : tarnish your image of me ? patrick : not at all . honestly , your image could use a little mud . make the rest of us feel a little less incompetent . elizabeth : thanks . patrick : can i get you anything , for a change ? elizabeth : can i ask you a question ? patrick : yes . elizabeth : how does love work ? patrick : oh , no . no , elizabeth . you 're asking the wrong guy -- elizabeth : no , i know , but you 've found it . so you must know . i mean , why does love go back and forth ? because after -- oh , my god , after four marriages and two children and a lot of heartache , i still do n't get it . [ scene_break ] jason : so are you ready to tell me how you ended up wet , falling from a building ? sam : okay . all right . so this guy hires me because he wants me to catch his wife cheating . it 's the last thing he wants , but it 's the nature of the business , right ? so i wind up following her to the metro court , and i find out that she 's got a spa appointment . so naturally , i make one for myself , which explains why i was in a robe . because i had to get out of my clothes . which was a good thing , because it landed me in the locker room . i was able to sit right next to her and strike up conversation . and i told her something like i was the wife of the raisin king of secaucus or something like that . jason : wow , why would you say that ? sam : i do n't know , i had to get her attention . and i wanted her to listen . i mean , you would question that , too , would n't you ? okay . so anyway , i literally turn around for like one second , turn back , she 's gone . i 'm like , where 'd she go ? okay , there she is . she 's going through the back door . so i follow her , in my robe , of course , up to her room . i wait there for like two minutes . she 's in and out . she leaves really quick , so i wind up picking the lock . i get into the room , i 'm looking around to see if there 's anything that i can find , and she comes back . so i wind up running into the bathroom , and guess what she does ? she comes into the bathroom . i jump into the shower . then she puts her hand in the shower to turn on the water , opens up the curtain , screams bloody murder , and her girlfriend comes in . jason : wait , wait . her girlfriend ? sam : yes , her girlfriend . as in lover . so thankfully i had the camera around my neck , and i was able to snap a picture for hubby . but girlfriend tries to snatch the camera off of me . we 're kind of in a wrestle , and she grabs my sleeve , i wind up getting out of it , and i 'm now in my underwear . and then , i 've got to jump out of the bathroom window , and like magic , there you are , standing there . nice timing , by the way . jason : and what if i had n't been there ? what -- sam : you were . so that 's really all that matters . and , you know , i kind of have been thinking about it , and if some stranger was in my bathroom , i would probably attack them , too . all that matters -- i got my picture . that is it . jason : are you sure this is how you want to make a living ? [ scene_break ] maxie : johnny , please stop ! you 're going to kill him . no , do n't . do n't go . johnny : you okay ? maxie : no . johnny : it 's okay . it 's over . no one 's going to hurt you . spinelli : let her go , disgusting stalker -- maxie : spinelli . spinelli : what have you done to upset maximista ? [ scene_break ] jax : i 'd rather not have another go - around with you . sonny : really ? then why are you in my living room ? jax : claudia already said . i was trying to get her to distract you so you 'd spend a little bit more time with her and the baby instead of stressing out carly . sonny : okay , my position has not changed . you are risking carly 's life by demanding she has this baby . jax : you do n't seem to be able to grasp the fact that there 's only one person who can make that decision , and that 's carly . she 's made it . sonny : all right , all right . jax : okay ? and i 've accepted that . and fighting her is no good for her health . you need to understand that . because us going at each other for the next nine months is not good for anyone , okay ? so we 're just going to have to agree to disagree and move on . sonny : no , what you 're trying to say , translation , is , you want me to do what you want . but i 'm not going to do that . jax : you have a think about it , sonny . if you really care about carly , you 'll see it my way . sonny : everything 's his way . that 's all he 's -- you know . `` see it my way , see it my way . `` claudia : okay , look , sonny -- sonny : what about my way ? claudia : i would never side with him against you while he was in the room , but it 's just you and me now , and i have to be honest he 's right . [ scene_break ] maxie : no , spinelli . you 've got it wrong . johnny was n't attacking me ; he was trying to save me . some guy came out of nowhere and i tried to fight him off , but he was way too strong . johnny : i was on my way to kelly 's and i heard screaming . so i ran down here , saw maxie struggling with this guy , so i taught him a lesson . spinelli : where is he now ? johnny : ran off . spinelli : this is unthinkable . you could 've sustained serious trauma . maxie : no , it 's okay . i 'm fine now . i 'm a little shaky , but it 's done . spinelli : thanks to the timely intervention of the mob prince . johnny : timing 's everything . spinelli : yeah , and clearly the jackal 's is sorely lacking . maxie , i have failed you egregiously . you warned me that this could happen . you even asked for my protection , and i left you alone to face deadly peril . look , a mere apology is not even -- can not even begin to express my abs -- maxie : i do n't want you to feel bad . that 's the last thing i wanted . i knew you would come , spinelli , and you did . spinelli : yeah , but johnny came first . so now i have to set aside my self- disappointment and thank the mob prince for his timely intervention . if you could take maxie home -- maxie : no , you could take me . spinelli : no , no . you 've endured enough indignity . just go with the one who effected your rescue . i 'll stay here and look for clues as to the identity of your attacker . maxie : spinelli , you do n't have to do that . spinelli : no , i know , it 's but a paltry effort , but being that i could not protect or defend you , it 's the least i can do . [ scene_break ] patrick : the only thing i know about love is the fact that i do n't know anything about love . i mean -- okay . so , i think , personally , i 've made some progress in the situation . when i first got to port charles , i thought love was an excuse to get a woman in bed . or some abstract concept guys would make up to kind of cover up the fact that they were whipped . elizabeth : you are such an unapologetic pig . patrick : wow . easy . elizabeth : it 's true , and you know it . you 're every woman 's worst nightmare . it 's no wonder robin could n't stand you . patrick : yeah , yeah . well , she worked a miracle , did n't she ? and somehow , this tiny woman with a big mouth got under my skin and stayed . i do n't know . you know , she made me realize all the things i did n't think i wanted , like commitment and family . turns out that 's what i wanted all along , you know ? and i still do . i guess that 's why with robin gone , nothing seems to make sense anymore . well , that 's it . that 's the end of my wallow in self - pity . i 'm supposed to be helping you here . elizabeth : you did . you reminded me how rare true love is . and how easy it is to lose . [ scene_break ] claudia : i know that you do n't like hearing this , but i 'm going to give it to you straight . okay , carly 's pregnancy is up to her to decide whether or not she wants to carry that baby to term , and she 's apparently made that decision already , sonny . why ca n't you just respect that ? why do n't you leave carly and jax alone ? sonny : it 's not that simple . we 're talking life and death here . claudia : it is simple . i do n't see how it 's complicated . she 's pregnant . she has a blood disorder that makes it a risky pregnancy , and she ca n't be stressed . so you fighting with carly is putting both of them at risk . right ? you need to back off . and it 's not like you do n't have other things to think about . michael 's experimental surgery is coming up , and you have this little baby right here . and this little baby is starting to feel kind of neglected . sonny : okay . i do n't want to talk about it anymore . and i just want you to be clear that that baby growing inside of you is as important to me as any other child . and , you know , never doubt that , okay ? claudia : okay . thanks . i 'm pregnant . i still ca n't believe i 'm pregnant . sonny : it 's pretty wild . claudia : it 's crazy . i did n't ever think that i would -- sonny : hey . claudia : hello , guard ? olivia : i came as soon as i got your message . what 's going on ? claudia : oh , i 'd like to know , too . why would you invite her here at this time of night ? sonny : claudia , go upstairs , because i got to speak to her in private . claudia : oh , really ? do i have a choice ? sonny : not really . and do n't try to listen to what we 're saying when you 're on top of the stairs . claudia : okay , good . drop dead . olivia : looks like you 've got some damage control on your hands . sonny : do n't worry about that . i need help . and i know that you 're the only one that can give it to me . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i was just thinking about robin and how scared she must be . because her whole life just spiraled out of control so much that she pushed away the only person who really loved her . at least she had a legitimate reason . patrick : are you blaming yourself for your breakup with lucky ? because , elizabeth , from where i could tell , he was a pretty big contributor . elizabeth : yeah , lucky had a drug addiction . it changed who he was . once he got sober , he was the same old lucky that i 've always known . but by then , i was in love with jason . and i lied to lucky about it , and i married him anyway . see , there 's always this breaking point where no matter how much you love someone , or no matter how much you want to be with them , when too much damage is done , it 's impossible to be honest . and that 's what i did to lucky . patrick : well , does lucky get to weigh in ? i mean , you know , maybe he sees it differently . [ knock on door ] elizabeth : lucky . [ scene_break ] dale : hey , man , have you seen a hot blonde around here anywhere ? spinelli : i actually know several that fit that description . dale : tell me about it . i should 've known better than to trust a magazine chick . spinelli : magazine chick ? dale : yeah , crazy broad wanted me to stalk her . spinelli : i 'm sorry . could you provide further clarification ? dale : it was a set - up . so some guy she knows comes stumbling on the scene to play hero . i was n't interested at first , but she said the idiot could n't hurt a fly . so i guess she changed her mind . [ scene_break ] maxie : such an idiot . big news flash , right ? i thought i came up with the perfect plan , but it could not have gone any worse . johnny : plan to do what ? maxie : you know how spinelli is always saying that he wants to feel manly ? well , i wanted to be the person who made him feel that way , so i hired someone to stalk me . johnny : you got to be kidding me . maxie : i was waiting for the guy that i hired to show up when that freak you jumped showed up instead . johnny : and really attacked you . maxie : i hate to think what would have happened if you had n't been there . why is it whenever i need help , you are always around ? [ scene_break ] sam : you sure you want to stick around ? typing a surveillance report is n't exactly compelling viewing . jason : yeah , i 'll make sure the angry girlfriend does n't come back here and track you down . sam : thank you . i 'm really grateful for the rescue , but i think the danger has passed . and besides , my car is here , so -- jason : oh , yeah , yeah . if you 're sure . sam : yeah . jason : okay . sam : could i keep your jacket ? i 'll drop it off tomorrow . jason : no , absolutely not . yeah , of course you can . only because you solved your first case . and i know spinelli 's going to be very excited . sam : well , i think he might be the only one excited right now . i do n't want to tell this guy that his wife was caught cheating on him . jason : sometimes it 's better not to ask the question if you do n't want to hear the answer . sam : wow , that was almost profound . if i actually thought you believed it -- but you always want the truth , even if it hurts . jason : i just got the truth . and i really have no idea what to do with it . [ scene_break ] olivia : you know i 'm happy to help you , sonny , if i can . sonny : yeah , you can . i 'm sure you know where carly is . olivia : well , yeah . that kind of goes with the territory . she 's my boss , and she 's married to my other boss -- sonny : okay , do n't do that . do n't do that with me . look , i 'm not looking to fight with jax anymore . he actually -- you missed him . he came in here , he was trying to work claudia , i did not even punch him . olivia : oh , you did n't even punch him . sonny : no . olivia : sonny , you 're such a good boy . did you want a gold star for your forehead ? sonny : no . what i want is for you not to be on alert because of me . olivia : okay . i would like to believe that that 's true , but sue me if i 'm not entirely convinced , okay ? sonny : okay , listen to me . you know i do n't start trouble for the sake of starting trouble . i do n't want carly to end this pregnancy because i 'm jealous or sadistic . the reason i 'm doing it is because i do n't want my sons to lose their mother . now listen to me . sometimes carly can be bullheaded , she does things without thinking , and she needs a voice of reason . olivia : and you think you 're the voice of reason here . sonny : all i 'm saying is that i need to talk to carly away from jax . and i know you can make that happen . olivia : sonny -- sonny : just do it for me . olivia : sonny . sonny : remember the old times . olivia : sonny , sonny , look it , you know -- i respect that you 're sincere , okay ? but carly and jax both came to me specifically to ask me not to tell you carly 's whereabouts . sonny : all right . olivia : okay , no , look , look . if i thought for one second that you could do something to help out the situation , you know that i would love to give you what you want . but i got to be honest . i think they both have real good reason to want to keep you away . [ scene_break ] johnny : come here . [ thunder ] johnny : there . maxie : well , here you are again , my hero . johnny : you sound thrilled about that . maxie : i am beyond grateful for what you did up here . it 's all the rest of it i 'm not so sure about . johnny : hmm . so why do n't you think about it ? maxie : what does that mean ? johnny : i 'm asking you -- maxie : how i feel about you ? johnny : yeah . maxie : okay . i like you . i think that you 're sexy and edgy and pent - up . you 're explosive , like we saw tonight , so obviously i 'm attracted to you . but i love spinelli . he 's my best friend , and i 'm doing everything i possibly can to try to get us back on track , so i really do n't want to do anything that would jeopardize that . johnny : and if spinelli were n't in the picture ? maxie : then we would still have lulu . and yes , she gets on my very last nerve , but lulu is like the closest thing i have to a real friend who is n't related to me , so i 'd have to kiss that goodbye , and we would have to subdivide the apartment again . no offense , i just -- i do n't think just jumping into bed with you to see what it would be like would be worth the cost . but if you asked me again tomorrow , my answer could change . [ knock on door ] [ maxie sighs ] maxie : spinelli ! oh , my god . spinelli : please do n't muddy the waters with your preplanned prevarication . just give me an honest answer , if you are capable . did you set me up ? [ scene_break ] sam : i 'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that claudia is the reason for that look on your face . jason : yeah , and some other stuff . sam : well , the last time we spoke , you said that you were n't very sure if you had proof whether or not she was involved in michael 's shooting . jason : i still do n't , but now i am convinced . i mean , i got the drop on jerry at the 10th street parking garage , and i was going to take him for a drive and get some answers . i pushed the remote to his car and his car exploded . now , right before , he said i was n't going to like what he had to tell me , and there was just something about the way he said that to me . sam : and of course , jerry 's gone . any leads ? jason : nothing . sam : is there any situation this guy ca n't get himself out of ? jason : i know , it 's unbelievable . it 's unbelievable . jerry could be anywhere at this point , and he 's the only one who can confirm the truth about claudia . sam : please tell me you did n't get off that gurney and go after him . please tell me you stayed long enough for a doctor to check you out , jason . jason : i 'm fine . sam : you always say that , and necessarily , it 's not always true . jason : well , i was good enough to catch you falling from the building . sam : you had no choice . i would have crushed you . jason : yeah , right . sam : did i remember to thank you for your amazing timing ? jason : you 're welcome . sam : why were you there , anyway ? jason : i was going to meet with bernie , and i just decided to take a walk , kind of clear my head , and try to figure out exactly what -- what to do . how am i supposed to tell sonny that i am convinced that his wife is responsible for putting michael in that coma ? [ scene_break ] claudia : requesting permission to walk through my living room to get a glass of water , sir ? sonny : olivia is gone . claudia : oh , good , it was just a quickie , then ? sonny : it does n't take long to say no . claudia : no to what ? sonny : well , i wanted her to tell me where carly is . claudia : oh , come on , sonny . sonny : what ? claudia : i could have saved you a lot of time . there 's no way she was going to do that . why would she alienate two of her bosses for you ? sonny : why ? because olivia and i , we have a history , right ? a lot more than jax and carly -- claudia : oh , it does n't really matter , you know why ? because right now , you 're just the jealous ex - husband . sonny : really ? claudia : over - protective . you know what , never mind . sonny : no , what ? claudia : no , it 's fine . i do n't want to talk about carly ever again , actually . we can drop the subject , because i have a baby right here , and that baby feels neglected . sonny : are you feeling all right ? claudia : yeah , i feel fine . sonny : all right . claudia : i 'm just hungry . i 'm hungry all the time . i 'm starving . i guess that 's what happens when you get pregnant , huh ? okay , so this is what i was thinking . maybe we could just put our heads together over some dinner . sonny : dinner ? i like to cook alone . claudia : well , that 's because you 're scared . sonny : i 'm what ? claudia : mm - hmm , you heard me . sonny : you 're going to challenge me on that one ? claudia : yeah , if you 're up for it , pops . sonny : pops ? let 's go . claudia : okay , let 's go . sonny : let 's go .

[ scene_break ] johnny : you two need some privacy ? hey , you remember that speech you gave me about maxie , how special she is she needs to be cherished ? i hope you can follow your own advice . [ door closes ] maxie : okay , the guy that you talked to was obviously the photographer 's assistant that i know from work , but i just wanted you to see me in danger , spinelli , so that you wanted to help me . spinelli : right , and since you have zero faith in my ability to do that , you hired someone to pretend to be hurt by my ineffectual efforts . the fact that you went to such lengths to dupe me into thinking that i could be your hero , when clearly , johnny will forever claim that title , is both saddening and distressing . maxie : no , spinelli , that 's what you 're missing . yes , johnny might have saved me tonight , but you saved me first , every day , by just believing in me . so , yes , i 'm going to lie and bribe and do whatever it takes to get you back in my life , because i miss you . i miss the person who makes me believe that i 'm actually a good person . i miss the guy who makes me laugh and look forward to what the day might bring . i miss the guy that i love most in this world , and i 'm tired of you shutting me out . please , spinelli , just come back to me . spinelli : the only thing that today proved was how easily you can still manipulate me . i 'm sorry , maxie , but i wo n't hang around waiting for the next time you need a stooge . [ scene_break ] lucky : you know , when i saw you and nikolas kissing at the hospital the first time , i thought that was bogus . compared to the two of you at jake 's , it just -- i knew that was for real . so rebecca and i went back to her place , and i thought if i slept with her , it would help distract me from you . elizabeth : oh , my god , did you ? lucky : no , i could n't . it just would n't be respectful to anyone , especially rebecca . she 's a great person who deserves someone who 's into her , but that 's just not me . so if nikolas tells you that rebecca and i were having sex , it did n't happen . elizabeth : what , nikolas ? lucky : nikolas , he showed up at rebecca 's , right after we agreed that we were making a mistake , and he just took off before we could tell him that nothing happened . elizabeth : okay , okay , can we just go back to the part where moving on is n't working for you ? lucky : okay . elizabeth : i mean , that 's a good thing , right ? it 's not something that you wish you could just get over and forget about ? lucky : it 's just not possible . elizabeth : i 'm asking you if you want it to be . lucky : no . elizabeth : good . that 's good , because moving on is n't really working for me , either . [ scene_break ] nikolas : let me save you the effort , rebecca , because i know how this goes . i am obsessed with my dead wife , okay ? and i 've brought you nothing but misery . i pushed my way into your life , made your cancer scare all about me and my twisted need to relive the past with emily . and whatever feelings that you may have had for me were crushed when helena came around and i turned on you , right ? i 'm just a problem that you do n't need right now , especially when my much saner brother is just waiting to pick up the slack . rebecca : are you done speaking for me yet ? because none of that is what i came here to say . lucky and i did n't sleep together . you walked in -- uninvited , i might add -- just as we decided not to . he wants elizabeth . he finally admitted that tonight . and , god help me , i 'm attracted to you . [ scene_break ] jason : so after i left the hospital , i went to see claudia , and she was nervous and really defensive . sam : well , i mean , is n't she always ? jason : well , yeah , but not like this . i mean , she was definitely covering something , so i started to ask around , and i found out that this zacchara lackey named fredo genovese suddenly dropped out of sight . guess what he does ? sam : explosives ? jason : claudia knew jerry was coming back . sam : oh . jason : so , you know , maybe she met with him , i do n't know . maybe -- i would n't put it past jerry if he told her he would be quiet about her connection to michael 's shooting . sam : why ? jason : why ? because jerry always protects jax , always , always . he knows his brother 's happiness rides on carly never knowing that jerry had something to do with michael 's shooting . so jerry wants claudia 's silence as much as she wants his . sam : yeah , but why would claudia want to kill jerry if he 's so motivated to keep quiet ? jason : would you trust jerry jacks ? sam : all right , all right , good point . jason : okay , right , so maybe she wanted to make sure that he was n't going to change his mind . i mean , does this make sense to you ? sam : except claudia is pregnant with sonny 's baby , and you ca n't tell him any of this . [ scene_break ] claudia : please tell me you 're not about to fall for the oldest trick in the book . olivia left her phone here so she would have a chance to come back and see you . sonny : that 's crazy . olivia does n't even think like that . claudia : yeah , olivia -- that woman thinks like that . sonny : i 'll be right back . i 'm not going to have a fight with you right now . claudia : you 're going to olivia 's right now ? you 're really going to leave me ? wait a minute , i 'm sorry -- what about dinner ? sonny : you 're going to be hungry tomorrow , right ? we 'll cook dinner , we 'll have a good time , we 'll do whatever you want to do . claudia : why ca n't max take her her phone ? sonny : because max ca n't get olivia to reveal where carly is . claudia : neither can you . sonny : if at first you do n't succeed , you try , try , try again , right ? claudia : okay , good , you 're -- let me get something straight . you 're going to leave your pregnant wife home alone here , starving , so that you can drive through the pouring rain to bring your ex - girlfriend her cell phone -- a woman who has a crush on you ? wait , sonny , i 'm supposed to be okay with that ? sonny : okay , first of all , she does n't have a crush on me . second of all , your hormones are raging , and this is not a time to have a fight , because i do n't want to fight with you . i 'll be back shortly . [ scene_break ] [ thunder ] nikolas : what ? rebecca : well , you heard me . i 'm not happy about any of this , nikolas . i mean , you 're not easy . you 're obsessed with your dead wife . you live in this creepy mausoleum . you 've got batty relatives running around all over the place , making false accusations and threatening people . i could save myself a lot of hassle and just move on , but somehow i 'm not able to . and in spite of the fact that you might possibly be stark raving mad , or , i do n't know , maybe because of it , you 're , you know , one of the most fascinating men i 've ever met .

abby : behind those bright blue eyes and smile of yours , you are . you are a murderer . stitch : that 's twice in one conversation . you 're digressing . please stop . abby : it 's so hard to believe . i mean , you do n't look like a murderer . stitch : yeah ? what 's a murderer look like ? abby : not someone who saves lives for a living and goes goo - goo over babies and who claims to love my sister . stitch : so , if i looked like a killer ... abby : then maybe i would n't feel so gypped for liking you . stitch : you like me ? abby : i liked you , yeah , before -- enough to try and set you up with my mom . how could you be that person ? look , i 've been mad at my dad -- furious at him -- several times , but i could never -- stitch : you could never do what i did . abby : he was your own flesh and blood , stitch . how could you be this person that we all liked and then do something so totally reprehensible ? victoria : hi , dad . victor : hi , sweetheart . victoria : did you know that ashley 's back and working for jabot ? victor : oh . i was n't even aware she was back in town . victoria : well , neither was i. i wonder why they 're keeping it such a big secret . victor : what did you find out ? victoria : well , apparently , she 's developing a new product for jabot that they 're trying to keep tightly under wraps . maybe we need to rethink the newman - chancellor cosmetic rollout for the rest of the year . why are you smiling ? this could be a big coup for the competition . victor : because , obviously , you 're back in your element . victoria : [ chuckles ] victor : you 're fighting to keep this family business on top . it warms the cockles of my heart . victoria : well , thank you , dad . it warms the cockles of my heart , too , and it 's a very welcome distraction , trust me . victor : so , what have you learned about her project ? victoria : she hired ben rayburn as a chemist . victor : stitch ? why ? victoria : well , i was asking myself the same question . what skill does he have that they would want ? anyway , i ran in to him , and he let it slip about the new product . victor : really ? that 's intriguing , is n't it ? might give us an inside track . victoria : dad , are you suggesting that i spy on the man who might be the father of this baby ? nikki : okay , man . that 's it for me . maureen : no more ? me too . want some coffee ? nikki : mm - hmm . sounds good . maureen : two coffees , please ! nikki : oh , i 'm just -- maureen : getting the most for your money . nothing wrong with that . nikki : [ chuckles ] yeah , i guess not . maureen : thanks . nikki : thank you . maureen : thank you , sherry . nikki : oh , i did n't do anything but buy a couple of drinks . maureen : you have me a little pep talk -- you know , just a little bit of inspiration . you gave me what i need to stick to my plan , you know ? i need to face the people i came here to face . nikki : i am so happy to hear that . i think that is very wise . jack : i do n't know what i expect to find at the clinic , but i am concerned . kelly : well , this nurse -- she did n't say there was something actually wrong with phyllis , did she ? jack : no , no , but what kind of confusion would lead a nurse to call me at home ? and who is this new doctor , anyway ? kelly : well , maybe you should talk to summer and avery . they 're the ones that are in charge of her care now , right ? jack : i 'm making you uncomfortable , are n't i ? kelly : no . you 're just concerned . jack : i 'm ... being insensitive , and i 'm sorry . kelly : you 're feeling what you feel . jack : that 's one of the things i love about you . you always seem to understand . kelly : jack ... i get grief . i 've lived with it long enough to know that it does n't have an expiration date . and it 's sneaky . it can wallop you when you least expect it , with a photograph or a child 's toy . jack : or a phone call . i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry my feelings for phyllis sometimes intrude on my feelings for you . kelly : it 's okay . this makes it better . jack : i do love you . kelly : good . i love you , too . traci : is something wrong ? jack : no , nothing 's wrong . kelly : yes , something , and i think that it might make things easier if you talk to your sister about it . jack : no , no . there 's nothing to discuss . came at the most perfect time , because i just realized i have something at work that i forgot to take care of . jack : do n't do this . kelly : i 'm sorry about our romantic dinner , but we 'll do it later , okay ? jack : please stay . kelly : i 'm the expert at grieving , remember ? talk to your sister . traci : [ sighs ] what did i walk in on , jack ? and why in the world did kelly rush to get out of here so fast ? jack : she did that for me , so i 'd have time to think . traci : what are you thinking about ? jack : going to see phyllis again . traci : oh . jack , you 're [ sighs ] you 're having trouble letting go , are n't you ? victor : well , if stitch rayburn , or russell -- whatever the hell his name is -- hid a crime from you , that 's far worse than a little corporate espionage , so do n't feel sorry for him . victoria : i would strongly consider playing ben ... if there was n't a chance that he and i might be raising this baby together . victor : ay . so , the answer 's no ? victoria : i 'm not making any promises about getting information out of ben , dad , but i will keep my eyes and ears open as far as ashley 's project is concerned . okay ? are you satisfied ? victor : for now . victoria : good , because there 's something else that i need you to know . victor : what else ? victoria : i hope you 're not gon na gloat too much when you hear this news . victor : well , i 'll try to contain myself . what is it ? victoria : billy and i -- billy and i are officially divorced . victor : ah . oh . well ... sweetheart ... come here . victoria : [ sighs ] victor : i 'm sorry that you have to go through this , okay ? victoria : okay . victor : but i think you made the right decision . victoria : thanks , dad . [ telephone rings ] victor : oh . yeah ? uh , tell dr . cutler to hold on for just a minute , okay ? i need to take this , sweetheart . victoria : of course . but who 's dr . cutler ? maureen : it was nice talking to you , sherry . nikki : i know i really enjoyed this . maureen : you sure you 're ready to remind your husband how mad you are at him still ? nikki : well , what 's the alternative ? maureen : more liquid courage ? nikki : mm , tempting . maureen : oh . nikki : but ... no . [ cell phone chimes ] maureen : oh , your husband ? nikki : cab is here . listen , um ... some of that stuff that i said to you -- maureen : oh , about your husband ? j - j -- that 's just between you and me . it 's in the vault . nikki : [ chuckles ] okay . no vaults necessary . all my secrets are on the front of the tabloids . maureen : [ chuckles ] nikki : see ya . maureen : bye . nikki : bye . stitch : hey . you busy ? kelly : uh , no . i 'm free -- freer than i wanted to be . stitch : what does that mean ? kelly : nothing . what 's up ? stitch : i got a job . kelly : at a hospital ? ! congratulations ! stitch : it 's not at a hospital . kelly : hey , it 's a paycheck , right ? where are you working ? stitch : jabot . kelly : jack hired you ? he did n't even say anything to me . stitch : well , jack might not even know about it . his sister ashley gave me the job . she needed somebody with chemistry - lab experience . kelly : well , i 'm ... relieved that somebody was able to look beyond your past . stitch : ashley 's okay . not everyone in genoa city is so willing to forget . kelly : it 's the past , ben . it can come take a bite out of your life anytime it feels like it . jack : difficult as it was , i said goodbye to phyllis . it is n't like i have n't come to the terms with the fact that she 's not coming back . but i ca n't just ignore the fact that this nurse called me out of the blue . traci : why do i get the feeling there 's got to be something more going on here ? one aborted phone call has you this unsettled ? jack : no , there 's something else . traci : i thought so . jack : i do n't put much stock in dreams -- i do n't -- but i had the most vivid dream of phyllis . she was in the house . she was here . she was awake , in our bed . traci : whoa . i can certainly see what prompted this . kelly just moved in . jack : yeah , i chalked it up to that myself . traci : please tell me that you did not share the details of that dream with the new woman in your life . jack : no , i did not tell kelly that . i do n't want her thinking that i 'm thinking of phyllis al the time . i 'm not ! i have n't had a dream like this about phyllis in a very long time . traci : but , obviously , kelly knows something 's bothering you . jack : well , judging from the way she just walked out of here , yeah , i 'd say you 're right . traci : well , then , you just have to reassure her , jack . jack : believe me , i 've done everything i can to put her at ease . traci : i know you and avery packed up all the rest of phyllis ' things . jack : yes , and i should have done that long ago , i know , but ... traci : you could n't . jack : i could n't ... just like i ca n't ignore this phone call . it 's gnawing at me . traci : i can see that . okay . so , you feel strongly about going to check on phyllis . what 's stopping you ? victor : dr. cutler is working on a very interesting project , okay ? he 's doing some fascinating research . victoria : well , then , you should n't keep him waiting . victor : okay . victoria : take your call . we 'll talk later . victor : let me know about the jabot project , all right ? victoria : i will , and i 'll be interested to hear what develops with you and dr . cutler . victor : i shall do that . and i 'll tell you one thing -- if i have the results i expect , then everyone will hear about it , okay ? victoria : bye , dad . victor : doctor . tell me you have gooood news . dr. cutler : i 'd like to do some damage control . victor : in what way ? dr. cutler : phyllis ' regular nurse attempted to alert mr. abbott to the patient 's progress . victor : one second . under no circumstances must jack abbott know about this . dr. cutler : i understand . i 'll handle the nurse . victor : see that you do . dr. cutler : but there 's some positive news to report . the patient 's had a small breakthrough . victor : in what respect ? dr. cutler : she 's trying to verbalize . victor : has she said anything ? dr. cutler : nothing coherent yet , but it 's a major step in the right direction . victor : that seems to indicate that you should push ahead with your treatment , right ? dr. cutler : i must warn you , mr. newman , there are diminishing returns and possible dangerous side effects . victor : but wait a minute . you told me that they were n't life - threatening . dr. cutler : they are n't . but ms . newman may not come out of this the same as she was before . victor : let me tell you something about phyllis newman . she 's a risk - taker . she would want you to increase the treatment , all right ? she wants to get out of this coma as soon as she can , trust me , so the risks be damned . you do it . stitch : one strange new pitfall of my new job is that victoria is working for jabot 's top competition . kelly : the only competition you have to worry about when it comes to victoria is billy . maureen : what are the odds i 'd find you two at the same time ? both : mom ? maureen : [ chuckles ] victoria : dad ? abby : hey . victoria : hi . oh , hey . have you seen dad ? he was here a minute ago . abby : no . um , actually , i came to see you . victoria : hmm ? yeah , sure . what 's going on ? abby : i wanted to smooth things over with my big sister . victoria : abby , uh , look , nothing needs smoothed over . abby : that 's very nice of you to say , but just so you know , it was not my idea to hire stitch . i would never want to make you feel uncomfortable . victoria : uncomfortable ? why in the world would i feel uncomfortable ? you and everyone else at jabot is welcome to hire whomever you want . abby : i know . it somehow feels sticky after everything you 've been through with him . victoria : well , that 's over with . abby : have you seen the way that stitch looks at you ? you dumped him , and he 's still gone over you . victoria : even if that was the case -- abby : and my mom hiring him -- look , i think that stitch took the job 'cause it gave him a reason to stick around genoa city . are you sure you 're not uncomfortable ? i 'm uncomfortable . victoria : as long as ben is n't working with any hazardous then there should n't be an issue . he is n't , is he ? abby : i see what you just did right there -- trying to get details out of me ? clever , clever . but my mom 's top - secret project is staying just that -- top- secret . victoria : okay . well , i had to try . abby : so , we 're good ? victoria : we 're good . abby : okay . and do n't worry -- stitch has been warned to stay far away from you . traci : apparently , something is keeping you from going to see phyllis . jack , what is it ? jack : it 's love . i 'm too in love with kelly to go running off to phyllis every time i feel a pang . traci : a pang ? oh , m -- this is a perfectly natural reaction . jack , of course you 'd be clinging to phyllis on some level . jack : it 's not healthy . you know what ? i 've made my decision . i still feel the best course of action is to move on . we set it up at the clinic that if anything is going on there , avery or someone will be notified . dr. cutler : nurse hathaway . i thought i made myself clear . you 're not to set foot in this wing again . nurse hathaway : i just want to say goodbye to phyllis . dr. cutler : that 's not a good idea . i strongly suggest that from now on , you not get so attached to your patients and never take it upon yourself to call a family without a physician 's authorization . nurse hathaway : yes , sir . phyllis : call ... dr. cutler : phyllis ? this is remarkable ! you understand what you 're saying ? your mental faculties are starting to come back . nikki : [ sighs ] `` my dearest nikki ... why do we fight ? `` i could tell you that . blah , blah , blah , blah , blah . `` that 's why i love you . your determination and your strength , your willingness to speak the truth no matter what . `` the truth . oh . [ mutters ] oh , my gosh . [ gasps ] oh ! victor : what in the world ? nikki : [ gasps ] victor : dear me . nikki : hi . [ next_on ] christine : i 'm glad you 're both here . there 's something i want to discuss with you . paul : my forensic team found some evidence on the property . victor : what have they found ? neil : malcolm ? malcolm : yeah , neil . it 's me . | nurse hathaway calls jack at home but is soon interrupted . when jack calls her back , he can not get her . kelly comes in and wants to know if anything is wrong with phyllis . at the rooftop pool , victoria runs into ben and wants to know what is going on between him and abby . ben lets her know that he can not stand abby but he is finding himself working with her at jabot . nikki becomes acquainted with maureen at the bar across town . they share some intimate woman secrets about the men in their lives . abby confronts ben about the contract that he has n't signed yet and that he should n't be divulging any jabot information to the competition . dr. cutler examines phyllis but sees no change . nikki gives maureen some sound advice about the people she is supposed to be meeting . victor tries to call nikki but gets no answer . | <s>[INST] maureen : boy , you really needed that first drink . [ chuckles ] nikki : oh , boy . yes , i did . [ chuckles ] it was a tough , tough day . i do n't normally drink at this hour . i mean , i do n't really even drink at all . maureen : no , me neither . nikki : was it 'cause of the people that you have to meet today ? pretty intimidating . maureen : must be . one good thing -- if your car has to break down , you 're lucky it happened near a bar . nikki : yeah . yes , very lucky . maureen : and since we 're both partaking before happy hour , we should become better acquainted . i 'm maureen . nikki : hi , maureen . i 'm ... sherry . maureen : sherry . jack : i 'm sorry . who did you say was calling ? nurse hathaway : pamela hathaway , one of ms. newman 's nurses . jack : yes , nurse hathaway . is something wrong ? nurse hathaway : i 'm calling kelly : hey ! you are about to experience culinary bliss . jack : i ca n't quite hear you . c - could you -- nurse hathaway , has something happened to phyllis ? abby : and cassie was the nicest person ever , and now we are forced to accept this skulking , stalking witch as nick 's stepdaughter , as my niece . i mean , ca n't we just jettison her off to antarctica ? maybe it 'll freeze the evil out of her . traci : or , abby , you could take a kinder approach . abby : to mariah ? why ? traci : this poor young woman has just survived being kidnapped , only to find out that she was kidnapped at birth . abby : okay . you 're trying to make me feel sympathy for her . traci : well , is that so out of the question ? abby : how can i feel the least bit sorry for her after everything she 's pulled ? traci : because you 're loving and considerate . abby : but she is terrible and awful and -- traci : and alone in the world . abby , she 's probably feeling unloved , unwanted , lost . ca n't you find one tiny bit of compassion for her ? because you 're just as sweet and kind as your niece cassie used to be . abby : maybe . traci : i have the utmost faith in you . abby : you do bring the best out of people , aunt traci . [ both laugh ] traci : so , shall we look for the good in mariah over a cup of coffee ? abby : oh , that 's so tempting , but i ca n't stay . traci : you have to get back to work ? abby : yeah , with a quick detour . i have to deal with yet another criminal who has been foisted upon me , and this one 's even worse . victoria : hey . hi , ben . stitch : victoria . victoria : [ sighs ] we keep bumping in to each other . stitch : it seems so . well , see you later . victoria : uh , ben , wait . what exactly is going on between you and my sister ? stitch : why do you care ? nikki : ahhhhh . is n't this great ? i mean , it 's like -- kind of like we 're in a bubble , you know , with no cares whatsoever . maureen : you got that right . and the more i drink , the more i realize i got nothing to worry about . nikki : no ! and is n't that the greatest way to feel ? i mean , here we are in this cozy little bar and some funky mood music , i mean , it is a fabulous escape . maureen : it is . what are you escaping from , sherry ? nikki : hold on one second . excuse me . powder room -- you know . [ cell phone rings ] maureen : hey , sherry , i know we just met , but should i invite whoever 's calling you to come join our little party ? victoria : it 's not that i care , exactly . stitch : well , it sure seems like you do , vicki . i mean , you 've already grilled me today about my possible interest in abby . victoria : i did n't grill . i asked . stitch : and since i 've already answered , then why do you keep asking ? victoria : because . stitch : because ? victoria : look , my goal here is to protect my younger sister . but because you 're being so completely ... stitch : clear ? victoria : ... obstinent ... stitch : `` stubborn like a stump `` -- that 's what my mom always used to say . victoria : oh . [ laughs ] stitch : what is it ? what happened ? victoria : well , i guess he or she felt me laughing and decided to join in . stitch : that 's nice . victoria : look , to be clear , you never directly answered my question about abby . stitch : i stand corrected . am i allowed a do - over ? victoria : okay , but just this once . stitch : when it comes to abby , there 's nothing to worry about , since i can barely tolerate her . victoria : really ? stitch : yeah . victoria : you do n't like my little sister ? stitch : [ chuckles ] let 's just say i do n't have much use for a girl who can grab a guy she hates and kiss him just to make her ex jealous . victoria : okay . well , then , why did i see you and abby downstairs -- right downstairs -- in some heated moment ? i mean , why would you even sit down at a table with her if you 're so fed up with her ? stitch : there 's a perfectly good reason for that . victoria : and that would be ? stitch : we 're working together . victoria : what ? you and abby ? stitch : caught me off guard , too , but ashley hired me as a chemist at jabot . victoria : why you ? stitch : she 's perfecting some revolutionary new product , and -- ay ! what ? ! abby : if you are trying to get yourself fired , you 're doing a damn good job . jack : nurse hathaway , please tell me what you have to say about phyllis . i -- hello ? hello ? ! god . kelly : what 's wrong ? jack : i do n't know . i do n't know . [ groans ] kelly : no answer ? jack : no , her voicemail . hello . this is jack abbott , nurse hathaway . you just -- we lost our connection . please call me as soon as you can with information about phyllis . thank you . kelly : well , you know , jack , maybe -- maybe nothing 's wrong . jack : why would the nurse suddenly call me and then just hang up ? kelly : well , she 's a nurse . maybe she went to help another patient . jack : or maybe she went to help phyllis . kelly : look , just call the clinic directly . find out what 's going on . you need to know . nikki : no ! do n't answer that ! um ... maureen : well , i was n't gon na -- nikki : no , no , no . i - i know . it 's no big deal ordinarily , you know . i just do n't want to have , like , a big party or something . um ... after the day i 've had today , i just ca n't be bothered . i 'll be back . maureen : hey , uh , sherry , do you want another drink ? victor : sweetheart , i do n't like the way we left things , so kindly call me back as soon as you get the message , okay ? them deliver two dozen red roses to the ranch , okay ? and have it delivered before nikki gets back to the ranch , all right ? thank you . maureen : i called after you to see if you wanted another refill . nikki : oh . uh , well , i - i did n't . maureen : are you cutting yourself off ? nikki : actually , i did n't hear you . maureen : well , you know , you 're right . maybe it 's time to just call it quits and get back to the real world . nikki : yeah . but you know what ? let 's have another one . it 's on me this time . maureen : excellent . nikki : [ laughs ] stitch : why did you just hit me ? abby : to shut you up . stitch : really ? is that what working with you is like ? because i did n't sign on to be your royal whipping boy . abby : oh . actually , you did n't sign anything yet . yeah , you might want to read this contract before you put pen to paper , 'cause you obviously do n't know the first thing about your new job . stitch : i was just telling victoria -- abby : yeah , and that 's what i was stopping you from doing -- telling victoria . victoria : uh , actually -- abby : if you ca n't live up to the mandates in this contract , including the confidentiality clause , you 're fired . stitch : i was n't telling victoria anything confidential . abby : see , my sister over there -- no offense ... victoria : uh , none taken . abby : ... is victoria newman of newman enterprises -- yeah , the roughest , toughest competition . she 's the enemy . stitch : i knew that . abby : oh , yeah , and you were so willing to just blurt out trade secrets ? stitch : okay , that 's not what was happening . victoria was n't working me for jabot company secrets . abby : oh . why would she need to push you to spill something you were gon na blurt freely ? stitch : there 's no winning with you . abby : i 'm glad you figured that out . it saves us a lot of time . so , victoria , i 'm sure you 've had enough of this guy . i 'm sure you 're ready to get out of here . victoria : uh , yeah . actually , i was just on my way out . abby : you know what ? i am very sorry about the whole eneny thing . victoria : uh , you know what ? that 's okay . i would have done the same thing to you . abby : all right . i 'll call you later . victoria : okay . bye - bye . abby : bye . so ... you and i need to lay down some ground rules . stitch : yes , we do . nikki : so , i mean , what am i supposed to do ? the car is conked out , and i 've got nowhere to go . maureen : i could see some women getting twisted up by that . nikki : mm . pretty unnerving . maureen : i do n't see that happening to you . nikki : oh , you do n't ? why not ? maureen : well , look at you . you 're blond , you 're all blinged out and well put together . women like you always have these hot guys that they can call to come fix their car and take them wherever they want . you know what i mean . nikki : actually , i 'm married . maureen : yeah , i could tell that from that rock on your hand . nikki : mm . maureen : hmm . that is nice . looks expensive . i do n't really have a sophisticated eye for that , but is it ? i mean , is it expensive ? nikki : very . maureen : nice . your husband must be something . nikki : oh , yeah . he 's something , all right . maureen : so , why do n't you call him to pick you up ? what 's wrong with him ? nikki : there 's nothing really wrong with him . i 'm just a little furious with him right now . maureen : ah . i understand that feeling . nikki : you 're married ? maureen : not anymore . nikki : my husband is truly a very complicated man . maureen : are n't they all ? nikki : now i know you 've been married . maureen : [ laughs ] so , what did your hot husband say ? fault for not trying to get in touch with him when i needed him , but he was unavailable -- nowhere in sight . maureen : how are you gon na argue with that kind of twisted logic ? nikki : i - i - i do n't know , so i left . maureen : and he just let you just walk out ? nikki : oh , well , i did n't have any choice there . i mean , when you get to that point , there 's no winning an argument . you know what i 'm talking about ? maureen : what is it with some people ? it 's like it does n't matter how well you think you know them , how long they 've been in your life , how much love is bouncing around . it 's just that ... relationships are so tricky . nikki : i totally get it . are you talking about those people you 're gon na meet ? maureen : yeah . i 'm thinking about not seeing them . nikki : oh , do n't do that . you might as well . you 're this close . maureen : i do n't know . just showing my face could stir up a lot of trouble . jack : dr. cutler , is it ? dr. cutler : yes . jack : we have n't met . i 'm jack abbott . i 'm phyllis ' -- well , we were engaged when phyllis had her accident . dr. cutler : yes . mr. abbott . i 'm very familiar with ms . newman 's case . what can i do for you ? jack : well , i 'd like to know how she is . i mean , is she okay ? dr. cutler : why would n't she be ? jack : is there a nurse hathaway there that i can speak with ? dr. cutler : i am afraid she 's busy with another patient right now . perhaps i can help you ? jack : well , i got a call from nurse hathaway -- to tell me about phyllis , i think -- but we were disconnected . dr. cutler : i see . well , i must apologize . nurse hathaway must have made that call in error . jack : how is that possible ? dr. cutler : well , there 's been some confusion on the floor today , but there 's been no change with ms . newman . jack : you sure about that ? dr. cutler : quite certain . jack : perhaps i should speak to phyllis ' regular physician . is dr . burnett there ? dr. cutler : i can understand your wanting confirmation from someone you know , mr. abbott . jack : thank you for your understanding . could i speak to dr . burnett ? dr. cutler : at the moment , i 'm afraid he 's unavailable , as well , but i can assure you i am working very closely with dr . burnett . and i give you my word -- ms . newman continues to be doing as well as can be expected . jack : well , okay , if there 's nothing to worry about . dr. cutler : there is n't . is there anything else , mr. abbott ? jack : no . no . thank you , doctor . kelly : feel better ? jack : only kind of . kelly : i 'm sure a call from the nurse has to be a little emotionally jarring , but this new doctor -- jack : dr. cutler . kelly : did what he 's saying make sense ? jack : yeah . he was relaxed . he was reassuring . he was calm . kelly : then why are you still worried ? jack : there 's something about this that does n't add up . and daniel 's out of the country . there 's no one around to check on phyllis anymore . kelly : it sounds like you want to go down there . jack : how would you feel about that ? kelly : well , you do what you have to do , jack . i would just you ... what do you hope to find ? phyllis : [ gurgles ] nikki : [ slurring ] thank you . can i be honest with you ? maureen : [ slurring ] yeah . nikki : i think that you need to face down your demons , whatever you are . maureen : oh , that 's easy for you to say , sherry . nikki : well , you can do it . you are a strong , strong woman . you are ready to take on anything life gives you . maureen : you 're a tough cookie , sherry . you and me -- we 're cut from the same cloth . nikki : you think so ? maureen : yeah . you did n't take that call from your husband and go running around back to him . nikki : yeah , well , my car is out of commission , so ... maureen : but even so ! you know , you ca n't take that garbage from him . do n't let him get away with anything ever ! nikki : no , i should n't . i should not ever let him get away with . maureen : ever ! we are sisters ! nikki : man , are we sisters ? maureen : yeah . nikki : do n't let them do it to us . sister ! maureen : ohh ! nikki : [ laughs ] stitch : i understand confidentiality . as a doctor , i have had plenty of practice keeping things to myself . abby : which is why i assumed wrongly that you could keep a secret . stitch : i am just not as cynical as you . not everyone has a hidden agenda . abby : [ laughs ] says the doctor with a hidden murder in his past . stitch : are you ever gon na ease up ? abby : why ? that 's what you are . stitch : we 're gon na be working together , abby , practically every day . abby : maybe several times a day . stitch : in that case , could you resist using the word `` murder `` in every conversation we have ? abby : behind those bright blue eyes and smile of yours , you are . you are a murderer . stitch : that 's twice in one conversation . you 're digressing . please stop . abby : it 's so hard to believe . i mean , you do n't look like a murderer . stitch : yeah ? what 's a murderer look like ? abby : not someone who saves lives for a living and goes goo - goo over babies and who claims to love my sister . stitch : so , if i looked like a killer ... abby : then maybe i would n't feel so gypped for liking you . stitch : you like me ? abby : i liked you , yeah , before -- enough to try and set you up with my mom . how could you be that person ? look , i 've been mad at my dad -- furious at him -- several times , but i could never -- stitch : you could never do what i did . abby : he was your own flesh and blood , stitch . how could you be this person that we all liked and then do something so totally reprehensible ? victoria : hi , dad . victor : hi , sweetheart . victoria : did you know that ashley 's back and working for jabot ? victor : oh . i was n't even aware she was back in town . victoria : well , neither was i. i wonder why they 're keeping it such a big secret . victor : what did you find out ? victoria : well , apparently , she 's developing a new product for jabot that they 're trying to keep tightly under wraps . maybe we need to rethink the newman - chancellor cosmetic rollout for the rest of the year . why are you smiling ? this could be a big coup for the competition . victor : because , obviously , you 're back in your element . victoria : [ chuckles ] victor : you 're fighting to keep this family business on top . it warms the cockles of my heart . victoria : well , thank you , dad . it warms the cockles of my heart , too , and it 's a very welcome distraction , trust me . victor : so , what have you learned about her project ? victoria : she hired ben rayburn as a chemist . victor : stitch ? why ? victoria : well , i was asking myself the same question . what skill does he have that they would want ? anyway , i ran in to him , and he let it slip about the new product . victor : really ? that 's intriguing , is n't it ? might give us an inside track . victoria : dad , are you suggesting that i spy on the man who might be the father of this baby ? nikki : okay , man . that 's it for me . maureen : no more ? me too . want some coffee ? nikki : mm - hmm . sounds good . maureen : two coffees , please ! nikki : oh , i 'm just -- maureen : getting the most for your money . nothing wrong with that . nikki : [ chuckles ] yeah , i guess not . maureen : thanks . nikki : thank you . maureen : thank you , sherry . nikki : oh , i did n't do anything but buy a couple of drinks . maureen : you have me a little pep talk -- you know , just a little bit of inspiration . you gave me what i need to stick to my plan , you know ? i need to face the people i came here to face . nikki : i am so happy to hear that . i think that is very wise . jack : i do n't know what i expect to find at the clinic , but i am concerned . kelly : well , this nurse -- she did n't say there was something actually wrong with phyllis , did she ? jack : no , no , but what kind of confusion would lead a nurse to call me at home ? and who is this new doctor , anyway ? kelly : well , maybe you should talk to summer and avery . they 're the ones that are in charge of her care now , right ? jack : i 'm making you uncomfortable , are n't i ? kelly : no . you 're just concerned . jack : i 'm ... being insensitive , and i 'm sorry . kelly : you 're feeling what you feel . jack : that 's one of the things i love about you . you always seem to understand . kelly : jack ... i get grief . i 've lived with it long enough to know that it does n't have an expiration date . and it 's sneaky . it can wallop you when you least expect it , with a photograph or a child 's toy . jack : or a phone call . i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry my feelings for phyllis sometimes intrude on my feelings for you . kelly : it 's okay . this makes it better . jack : i do love you . kelly : good . i love you , too . traci : is something wrong ? jack : no , nothing 's wrong . kelly : yes , something , and i think that it might make things easier if you talk to your sister about it . jack : no , no . there 's nothing to discuss . came at the most perfect time , because i just realized i have something at work that i forgot to take care of . jack : do n't do this . kelly : i 'm sorry about our romantic dinner , but we 'll do it later , okay ? jack : please stay . kelly : i 'm the expert at grieving , remember ? talk to your sister . traci : [ sighs ] what did i walk in on , jack ? and why in the world did kelly rush to get out of here so fast ? jack : she did that for me , so i 'd have time to think . traci : what are you thinking about ? jack : going to see phyllis again . traci : oh . jack , you 're [ sighs ] you 're having trouble letting go , are n't you ? victor : well , if stitch rayburn , or russell -- whatever the hell his name is -- hid a crime from you , that 's far worse than a little corporate espionage , so do n't feel sorry for him . victoria : i would strongly consider playing ben ... if there was n't a chance that he and i might be raising this baby together . victor : ay . so , the answer 's no ? victoria : i 'm not making any promises about getting information out of ben , dad , but i will keep my eyes and ears open as far as ashley 's project is concerned . okay ? are you satisfied ? victor : for now . victoria : good , because there 's something else that i need you to know . victor : what else ? victoria : i hope you 're not gon na gloat too much when you hear this news . victor : well , i 'll try to contain myself . what is it ? victoria : billy and i -- billy and i are officially divorced . victor : ah . oh . well ... sweetheart ... come here . victoria : [ sighs ] victor : i 'm sorry that you have to go through this , okay ? victoria : okay . victor : but i think you made the right decision . victoria : thanks , dad . [ telephone rings ] victor : oh . yeah ? uh , tell dr . cutler to hold on for just a minute , okay ? i need to take this , sweetheart . victoria : of course . but who 's dr . cutler ? maureen : it was nice talking to you , sherry . nikki : i know i really enjoyed this . maureen : you sure you 're ready to remind your husband how mad you are at him still ? nikki : well , what 's the alternative ? maureen : more liquid courage ? nikki : mm , tempting . maureen : oh . nikki : but ... no . [ cell phone chimes ] maureen : oh , your husband ? nikki : cab is here . listen , um ... some of that stuff that i said to you -- maureen : oh , about your husband ? j - j -- that 's just between you and me . it 's in the vault . nikki : [ chuckles ] okay . no vaults necessary . all my secrets are on the front of the tabloids . maureen : [ chuckles ] nikki : see ya . maureen : bye . nikki : bye . stitch : hey . you busy ? kelly : uh , no . i 'm free -- freer than i wanted to be . stitch : what does that mean ? kelly : nothing . what 's up ? stitch : i got a job . kelly : at a hospital ? ! congratulations ! stitch : it 's not at a hospital . kelly : hey , it 's a paycheck , right ? where are you working ? stitch : jabot . kelly : jack hired you ? he did n't even say anything to me . stitch : well , jack might not even know about it . his sister ashley gave me the job . she needed somebody with chemistry - lab experience . kelly : well , i 'm ... relieved that somebody was able to look beyond your past . stitch : ashley 's okay . not everyone in genoa city is so willing to forget . kelly : it 's the past , ben . it can come take a bite out of your life anytime it feels like it . jack : difficult as it was , i said goodbye to phyllis . it is n't like i have n't come to the terms with the fact that she 's not coming back . but i ca n't just ignore the fact that this nurse called me out of the blue . traci : why do i get the feeling there 's got to be something more going on here ? one aborted phone call has you this unsettled ? jack : no , there 's something else . traci : i thought so . jack : i do n't put much stock in dreams -- i do n't -- but i had the most vivid dream of phyllis . she was in the house . she was here . she was awake , in our bed . traci : whoa . i can certainly see what prompted this . kelly just moved in . jack : yeah , i chalked it up to that myself . traci : please tell me that you did not share the details of that dream with the new woman in your life . jack : no , i did not tell kelly that . i do n't want her thinking that i 'm thinking of phyllis al the time . i 'm not ! i have n't had a dream like this about phyllis in a very long time . traci : but , obviously , kelly knows something 's bothering you . jack : well , judging from the way she just walked out of here , yeah , i 'd say you 're right . traci : well , then , you just have to reassure her , jack . jack : believe me , i 've done everything i can to put her at ease . traci : i know you and avery packed up all the rest of phyllis ' things . jack : yes , and i should have done that long ago , i know , but ... traci : you could n't . jack : i could n't ... just like i ca n't ignore this phone call . it 's gnawing at me . traci : i can see that . okay . so , you feel strongly about going to check on phyllis . what 's stopping you ? victor : dr. cutler is working on a very interesting project , okay ? he 's doing some fascinating research . victoria : well , then , you should n't keep him waiting . victor : okay . victoria : take your call . we 'll talk later . victor : let me know about the jabot project , all right ? victoria : i will , and i 'll be interested to hear what develops with you and dr . cutler . victor : i shall do that . and i 'll tell you one thing -- if i have the results i expect , then everyone will hear about it , okay ? victoria : bye , dad . victor : doctor . tell me you have gooood news . dr. cutler : i 'd like to do some damage control . victor : in what way ? dr. cutler : phyllis ' regular nurse attempted to alert mr. abbott to the patient 's progress . victor : one second . under no circumstances must jack abbott know about this . dr. cutler : i understand . i 'll handle the nurse . victor : see that you do . dr. cutler : but there 's some positive news to report . the patient 's had a small breakthrough . victor : in what respect ? dr. cutler : she 's trying to verbalize . victor : has she said anything ? dr. cutler : nothing coherent yet , but it 's a major step in the right direction . victor : that seems to indicate that you should push ahead with your treatment , right ? dr. cutler : i must warn you , mr. newman , there are diminishing returns and possible dangerous side effects . victor : but wait a minute . you told me that they were n't life - threatening . dr. cutler : they are n't . but ms . newman may not come out of this the same as she was before . victor : let me tell you something about phyllis newman . she 's a risk - taker . she would want you to increase the treatment , all right ? she wants to get out of this coma as soon as she can , trust me , so the risks be damned . you do it . stitch : one strange new pitfall of my new job is that victoria is working for jabot 's top competition . kelly : the only competition you have to worry about when it comes to victoria is billy . maureen : what are the odds i 'd find you two at the same time ? both : mom ? maureen : [ chuckles ] victoria : dad ? abby : hey . victoria : hi . oh , hey . have you seen dad ? he was here a minute ago . abby : no . um , actually , i came to see you . victoria : hmm ? yeah , sure . what 's going on ? abby : i wanted to smooth things over with my big sister . victoria : abby , uh , look , nothing needs smoothed over . abby : that 's very nice of you to say , but just so you know , it was not my idea to hire stitch . i would never want to make you feel uncomfortable . victoria : uncomfortable ? why in the world would i feel uncomfortable ? you and everyone else at jabot is welcome to hire whomever you want . abby : i know . it somehow feels sticky after everything you 've been through with him . victoria : well , that 's over with . abby : have you seen the way that stitch looks at you ? you dumped him , and he 's still gone over you . victoria : even if that was the case -- abby : and my mom hiring him -- look , i think that stitch took the job 'cause it gave him a reason to stick around genoa city . are you sure you 're not uncomfortable ? i 'm uncomfortable . victoria : as long as ben is n't working with any hazardous then there should n't be an issue . he is n't , is he ? abby : i see what you just did right there -- trying to get details out of me ? clever , clever . but my mom 's top - secret project is staying just that -- top- secret . victoria : okay . well , i had to try . abby : so , we 're good ? victoria : we 're good . abby : okay . and do n't worry -- stitch has been warned to stay far away from you . traci : apparently , something is keeping you from going to see phyllis . jack , what is it ? jack : it 's love . i 'm too in love with kelly to go running off to phyllis every time i feel a pang . traci : a pang ? oh , m -- this is a perfectly natural reaction . jack , of course you 'd be clinging to phyllis on some level . jack : it 's not healthy . you know what ? i 've made my decision . i still feel the best course of action is to move on . we set it up at the clinic that if anything is going on there , avery or someone will be notified . dr. cutler : nurse hathaway . i thought i made myself clear . you 're not to set foot in this wing again . nurse hathaway : i just want to say goodbye to phyllis . dr. cutler : that 's not a good idea . i strongly suggest that from now on , you not get so attached to your patients and never take it upon yourself to call a family without a physician 's authorization . nurse hathaway : yes , sir . phyllis : call ... dr. cutler : phyllis ? this is remarkable ! you understand what you 're saying ? your mental faculties are starting to come back . nikki : [ sighs ] `` my dearest nikki ... why do we fight ? `` i could tell you that . blah , blah , blah , blah , blah . `` that 's why i love you . your determination and your strength , your willingness to speak the truth no matter what . `` the truth . oh .

[ gasps ] i thought he went to study in europe . sonny : he did . adrienne : he did . sonny : yeah , but now he 's back . adrienne : well , that 's great . well , that 's important . sonny : what 's important ? adrienne : well , that you 're seeing people , that -- that you 're having a social life again . sonny : i never stopped having a social life . what , you think when will and i moved in together , i just told all my friends to go to hell ? is that what you think ? adrienne : no , of course not . that 's not what i 'm saying . sonny : well , then what do you think ? can you -- can you just be direct with me for a change ? please ? adrienne : fine . all i 'm saying is that i 'm relieved to see that maybe you 're getting a little of your old life back . that 's all . sonny : my old life back ? adrienne : mm - hmm . sweetheart , you 're young , much too young to be trapped in an apartment night after night , cooking , cleaning , and baby - sitting . sonny : all right , just stop , stop , stop , stop . first of all , i am not trapped anywhere . i am exactly where i wan na be . and second of all , will , gabi , and i , we share the cooking and cleaning responsibilities . so for you to think that i 'm doing all the housework is crazy , not to mention totally unfair to will and gabi . adrienne : all right , you know what , you just -- sonny : no , no . and another thing , you know what ? i 'm not gon na calm down until you get this through your head -- that we take turns doing what needs to be done . and i am in no way being taken advantage of . and every night is not a big , boring drag of cooking and cleaning and changing diapers . we all pitch in . and sometimes , guess what . guess what we do . adrienne : what ? sonny : we have fun . and we talk to one another . and we watch movies and play video games and tell jokes -- adrienne : okay , fine , fine , fine , shh , stop . i get it . your life is wonderful and fun and full of laughter . and a great time is had by all . excellent , excellent . all i 'm saying is , i think young people should go out and meet other young people , that they should have experiences , that they should have variety in their life . that 's all i 'm saying . sonny : please , please , please , please , please . can you listen to me , mother ? adrienne : i am . sonny : i do not want or need to meet new people or have variety in my life because i know that 's code for `` if you would just break up with will , i would be happy . `` but guess what . that is not your decision . and it is not happening , not now , not ever . adrienne : can you see into the future ? sonny : i am not having this conversation with you right now . adrienne : look , stop being so defensive , and you know what ? another thing , stop putting words in my mouth . i never once in this conversation said you should break up with will , never . sonny : no , but i can read between the lines . adrienne : oh , god . am i a bad mother because i want my son to have some fun and excitement in his life ? so that he 's not bogged down with this huge responsibility while he 's still trying to find his way ? [ sighs ] i think back just a little while ago to your life . it was simple . sonny , you were happy . cameron : [ sighs ] rafe 's latest e.e.g . shows no change . kate : so is that bad ? kayla : no , not necessarily . at least there 's no more indications of distress . kate : of course not . sami 's barred from his room . abe : since when do you have your medical license ? kate : okay , abe . she went in there twice . and the second time was after daniel kicked her out and told her not to come back . and both times , rafe just about jumped out of his skin . cameron : [ sighs ] i was there . abe : why do you think he would react that way ? kate : gee , i do n't know . cameron : excuse me . i need to grab my lunch while i still can . take care . kate : sami 's gon na worm her way back into the room . she 'll always find a way . kayla : you know , i 'm not sure that i agree with daniel . you know , we do n't wan na upset rafe . but she has elicited the only communication that we 've had with him so far . kate : okay , look . um , actually , he talked to me too . kayla : what ? and you did n't think that that was important to tell me . kate : well -- adrienne : what did he say ? sonny : [ sighs ] okay ? you were saying ? adrienne : all right . i want you to listen to me . i do n't want to upset you . i do n't wan na cause you any more stress , okay ? sonny : mm - hmm . adrienne : i just feel that -- i just feel that maybe you 've settled into a situation -- sonny : settled into a situation . adrienne : [ sighs ] yes . sonny : i am living with the guy that i love . my life is great , everything about it . i should feel lucky , and you should too because i - i 'm in a good place right now . adrienne : honestly ... sonny : hey , brent , how 's it going ? brent : hey , man , good . sonny : good . brent : look , i just wanted to come by and say sorry i kept you out so late last night . i hope it was worth it . adrienne : [ chuckles ] kate : i do n't think what rafe said was necessarily as important as how he said it . kayla : why not ? kate : he was n't agitated . he felt safe with me . abe : why do n't you wan na tell us what rafe said ? kayla : we really need to know . if it 's personal -- kate : no . it 's n -- it 's not that . um ... well , you remember when you said that he might have a hard time distinguishing between his dreams and reality ? kayla : yes . kate : he asked me why sami tried to kill him . chad : [ sighs ] you think this should be your decision ? abigail : yeah . chad : what are you talking about , abigail ? abigail : i heard you on the phone with cameron . chad : yeah , ej asked me to move back in the mansion . abigail : wait , what , he did ? chad : you heard he tossed my dad out of the house , took over dimera enterprises , right ? abigail : no . oh , my god . where have i been ? chad : i guess you did n't hear that much of what i said on the phone . i guess you thought that i wanted to talk to cameron about you . abigail : it 's -- i ... chad : were you afraid i was gon na challenge him to a duel or something , huh ? i 'll put a bullet straight through your heart unless you move aside . abigail deveraux is mine . she is mine . cameron : you talking about me ? chad : huh ? sonny : mom , you remember brent . adrienne : of course . of course . great to see you , brent . brent : you too . adrienne : you have grown up . [ laughs ] brent : and you have n't changed at all . adrienne : flattery will get you a free latte , right , sonny ? [ giggles ] brent : that 'd be great . i need a big shot of caffeine after last night . oh , if you 're missing your watch , i left it with will . sonny : oh , oh , thank you . thank you . brent : yeah , yeah , yeah . i - i told him about the rave too . you do n't mind , right ? sonny : no , of course not . i was gon na tell him in the morning , but he was sleeping when i left , so ... brent : oh . adrienne : so , brent . brent : yeah . adrienne : what have you been doing since we last saw each other ? brent : actually , i have been traveling through the u.k. and france and a little bit of spain . adrienne : really ? fascinating . brent : yeah , studying architecture and design . adrienne : wow , wow . you know , when sonny was a little boy , he used to dream about growing up to be indiana jones . sonny : [ chuckles ] that 's -- that 's archaeology . adrienne : i know that . the point is he used to build these elaborate buildings , and then he 'd destroy them only to build them back up again . it was really interesting . so do you plan on being in salem for a while ? brent : um , yeah . i 'm planning on sticking around for a while . i never thought i 'd miss it so much , you know ? adrienne : well , great . hope to see more of you . brent : me too . sonny : um , i 'll get those coffees for you in one second , okay ? brent : yeah , yeah , yeah , i 'll be over here . sonny : okay . adrienne : he 's so -- sonny : mom . please . will : here you go . lucas : thank you . will : sonny 's allowed to have a life , dad . lucas : well , i know . it 's just if there 's something going on between you two , you can tell me . will : no . someone just had to take care of ari . lucas : what about the baby 's mother ? will : what about the baby 's father ? lucas : what about where 's gabi now ? will : [ sighs ] she had a class , dad . i do n't know why you 're so worried about this . everything is going great with us . lucas : if things are going so great , what 's sonny doing out with another guy , partying it up , doing whatever he want -- will : they 're -- they 're friends . lucas : really ? will : dad , not everything is about sex , you know . lucas : whoa , whoa , ease back on that . i 'm not talking about sex . i 'm just saying , why would -- why would sonny think it was cool to leave you alone here and party his life away ? will : i told -- because i told him to . that 's why . eric : what are you getting at , kristen ? kristen : do you ever have doubts , father ? eric : everyone has doubts . kristen : of course . because there 's so little to hold on to in life , right ? so little that truly lasts . certainly not love . not family . not even your deepest - held beliefs . and certainly nothing of the flesh . eric : everything in life is fleeting . kristen : right . which is why it 's so important to keep your eye on the prize , the hereafter . but if you already know that you 're going to hell , what 's the point of even trying ? eric : but god always forgives . kristen : mm . yeah . but people do n't . eric : cuts both ways , does n't it ? kristen : i suppose . but since i know that i 'm never gon na be redeemed in the eyes of the people that i care about , i feel free of duty , of responsibility . eric : love . what does that leave you with ? kristen : oh , my goodness , father . limitless possibilities . i can be myself . i can focus on my needs and my wants . and honestly , i ca n't deny myself any longer . that 's why i 'm here . it took years to build this business . eric : you seem to be having trouble coming out and saying what you wan na tell me . kristen : [ sighs ] i suppose that 's true . eric : well , if you wan na make a confession -- kristen : oh , no , no , no . nothing that formal . i just wan na get something off my chest . eric : to me ? kristen : yeah . you 're such a great listener . i mean , amongst so many other talents . eric : talk to me , our personal history aside , of course . kristen : hmm , what a history it i eric : you know you can tell me anything . kristen : be careful what you wish for . lucas : wait a minute , you told sonny to go out with an old friend for a night on the town while you stayed home and baby - sat ? will : it 's not baby - sitting if it 's your own kid , dad . lucas : [ sighs ] you know what i mean . come on . why ? why d you do that ? will : because it 's sonny . he 's the guy who climbed k2 , okay ? i 'm not gon na ask him to give up everything that he used to love . lucas : sometimes , that 's what being a parent means . you know , you got ta do that for a while . will : he 's not a parent . yes , he stepped up in a major way , but he 's not a parent , dad . lucas : but what , what 's he doing now , complaining about it ? is that it ? will : no , he loves ari . and he is so amazing with her . all right ? and when she 's older , then we can go off , and we can travel , and we can do everything that we love to do together . okay , stop looking at me like i 'm crazy . lucas : i 'm not looking at you like you 're crazy . i 'm just -- you know , you 're -- you 're mature , you 're -- old soul . you 're very old for your age . will : aw . well , having a kid can do that to you . lucas : well , it did n't do that to me . and your mother 's got , like , four kids , and she still acts like she 's 12 , so it did n't work on her either . i think you 've lapped us , to say the least . will : no , just wait till i call you in the middle of the night freaking out when she has a fever or something . lucas : i used to do that . your great - grandma alice used to help me out all the time . so i know exactly what to do , and i know that she would be very proud of you . she would . will : thanks . lucas : and i know i ca n't take credit for that , but i will anyway . will : oh , god , i got my -- lucas : i love you , man . will : i love you too . sonny : there you go . brent : thank you , sir . sonny : you 're welcome . brent : good to see you again . adrienne : good to see you too , brett , take care . brent : see ya . adrienne : [ chuckles ] sonny : will you stop ? adrienne : stop what ? sonny : you do n't think i remember what you did with me and brian ? it 's the same exact thing . you were pushing us together when i clearly wanted to be with will . okay , i 'm not gon na have you do that again . adrienne : i was n't . honestly , i would n't . sonny : no , no , you were n't ? `` bye - bye . hope to see more of you . `` what was that ? adrienne : he 's your friend . you want me to say , `` i hope to see less of you ? `` sonny : no , i do n't wan na do this again , please . this is my life and my business . you ca n't tell me who i can spend more or less time with . do you understand that ? adrienne : all right , fine . do whatever you want . for your information , i 'm very interested in architecture . sonny : what kind of insane non sequitur is that ? adrienne : ever since i got married in greece before you were born -- because ... sonny : but what in the world does this have to do with anything we 're talking about ? adrienne : when i said , `` i 'd like to see more of you , `` i 'd like him to meet uncle victor . sonny : [ groans ] adrienne : he 's a very personable young man . he 's very intelligent . i mean , people would like to talk to him . sonny : oh , okay . so he 's all those qualities that will does n't have . i see . adrienne : stop putting words in my mouth . i 'm trying here . ca n't you see how hard i 'm trying ? sonny : why do you have to try so hard ? adrienne : [ sighs ] sonny : it 's simple . i love will . and he loves me . he 's a great guy . is that not good enough for you ? adrienne : i want the very best for my son . sonny : i have the very best . i got ta go . adrienne : sonny , i did n't -- sonny : you know what , mom ? we might not have the most conventional family , but it 's working . so you have a choice to make . you can accept us or forget about us . eric : be careful what i wish for ? kristen : you seem to think that i came here to unburden myself somehow . and really , i just wan na make a simple request . eric : really ? kristen : yeah , really . i mean , when you think of all the time and energy and not to mention the money that i sank into this school project . and although it was unfortunate i could n't see it through to the enid my contribution really mean so little ? eric : you know you have my gratitude . kristen : aw , that 's so sweet . but did my invitation to the reception with the bishop get lost in the mail ? eric : it 's a very small reception . kristen : [ chuckles ] i know . i 've lost a lot . it would mean so much to me if i could attend . cameron : so i do n't have to sweat being dueled to the death . [ sighs ] chad : not before i get your advice anyway . abigail : chad . chad : relax . sorry . abigail : you know what ? i - i should probably get going 'cause i have a lot of stuff -- chad : oh , wait , wait , wait , wait , wait , hold on . before you do ... [ sighs ] i would like to get your take on this too , okay ? since they kicked my father out of his house , ej and kristen have both asked me to move back in . abigail : that 's huge , chad . chad : hmm , yeah . and the first person i would 've talked to about something like this would 've been lexie . and obviously that 's not possible , so ... cameron : you 'll -- you 'll settle for me . [ clears throat ] abigail : chad , have you talked to will and sonny about this ? i mean , will lived with the dimeras for a while . and his mom now -- chad : yes , i 've -- i 've tried . okay , but they 've got so much going on right now . and i need to make a decision . so ... i trust your judgment . and yours . kayla : thank you . all right , kate . is there anything else that i should know ? anything that you did n't see fit to share with rafe 's attending physicians ? kate : look , i was n't trying to hide anything . you said yourself that he would be confused , that he might be delusional . abe : whoa , whoa , wait , wait . are you trying to protect sami ? kate : no ! i just want rafe left alone . he does n't need to hear her whining and complaining about how innocent she is . kayla : oh , so in other words , you put your personal animosity towards my niece ahead of rafe 's well - being . kate : i was protecting him from her hysterics . kayla : well , you know what ? you probably did just the opposite . had we had a chance to examine him when that happened , we would have a better idea of how his recovery is progressing . kate : he 's going to wake up again . kayla : yes . but right now , he is extremely vulnerable , physically and mentally . excuse me , dr. brady . detective hernandez is starting to come around again . kayla : all right . kate : kayla . please . kayla : all right . maybe it would be helpful for him to see a familiar face when he wakes up . but you have to promise me that you will not upset him . kate : i will say nothing to upset him . eric : [ sighs ] i know you want to attend . but you -- you must know that -- kristen : that brady 's gon na be there ? and marlena ? of course . but this town is small ... i mean , ish . and we 're kinda used to tripping over each other wherever we go . eric : i just wan na avoid the bloodshed and the fisticuffs at the benediction . i mean , if it 's all the same to you ... kristen : but why ? the bishop 's gon na be there to grant absolution . eric : but you -- kristen : i 'm kidding . come on . you said it yourself that this school probably would n't have happened if it were n't for me , and i think i deserve a chance to see the fruits of my labor , do n't you ? eric : well -- kristen : i promise i 'm not gon na cause a scene . eric : why am i not so sure i can believe you ? kristen : come on . after all the money that my family and i just kind of threw at this project , we wan na see it succeed . surely you can understand that a cordial relationship would be to the benefit of everybody concerned . ciara : i 'm here . eric : you sure are . how are you ? ciara : hi . kristen : hi . ciara : i did n't know you guys were friends . kristen : crazy , huh ? yeah , i was just saying what a small town it is . eric : [ laughs ] is this your friend ? ciara : this is jamey . guess what . eric : what ? ciara : he 's coming to st. luke 's school in the fall too . eric : all righty . hi , sir . it 's very nice to meet you . my name is father eric . i 'm sure you 're gon na really like it here . jamey : my mom says leaving my old school is gon na change my life . i sure hope so . eric : well , jamey , i sure hope so too . there are women who sacrifice so much . eric : so what are you looking forward to most about coming to st. luke 's , hmm ? ciara : well , jamey said he 's never had a computer in his classroom or a real playground with a ball field . jamey : and no barbed wire fence . eric : well , you do n't need a fence he at st. luke 's . you 'll be safe . so y ready for a v.i.p . tour ? ciara : what 's v.i.p . ? eric : very important people ! and after all , you are the reason why we built this school . and you will do me a huge favor if you can break in one of our baseball gloves . [ chuckles ] if you wan na go to the reception , if you can just stick around for a few minutes , i 'll have sister margaret bring you a ticket . kristen : sure . thank you . [ sighs ] what the hell are you looking at ? cameron : you wan na voluntarily move yourself into the middle of world war iii ? chad : well , i feel like i need to be there for ej and kristen . i mean , they 've totally been there for me . abigail : what about stefano ? cameron : yeah , he asked you to move in before , right ? and you wait until his son kicks him out on his ass before you decide to say yes ? abigail : i - i do n't think he 'll take that so well , chad . do you ? chad : well , no . abigail : so ... chad : thanks for the advice . it really helped . abigail : w -- [ sighs ] yeah , right . cameron : wait , that 's all you 're gon na tell us ? chad : i just need some more time to think things through . that 's all . cameron : hey , before you go , have you -- have you followed up with the doctor about your head ? chad : you implying something , cameron ? cameron : uh , yeah . it 's very hard . you took a bad hit at the lake . i mean , if you have n't gotten it checked out , you -- chad : why should i ? like you said , it 's hard . i promise you , i 'm fine . thank you for the advice . i 'll see you guys later , okay ? abigail : well ... [ door closes ] abigail : that was n't awkward at all , was it ? cameron : no , but there is always a next time . my break 's over . better get back to work . abigail : okay . cameron : have a good day , okay ? abigail : yeah , you too . sonny : hey . brent said that he stopped by . uh , i 'm sorry . will : for what ? sonny : well , you were sleeping this morning . and i was gon na tell you that i went to that rave , and -- will : no , thank you so much for not waking me up and telling me that . it 's fine . sonny : are you sure ? will : absolutely . it was my idea for you to go out and have a little fun . sonny : that 's true . will : yeah , i 'm glad that brent brought this watch back , though . sonny : me too . will : maybe we should get a new clasp or something , so it stops falling off everywhere . sonny : no , it 's -- it 's good . it 's okay . will : okay . sonny : i will make sure that it 's not going anywhere . adrienne : lucas , hey . lucas : hey . hey , adrienne , how you doing ? adrienne : pretty good . how are you ? lucas : good , thanks . adrienne : you know , actually , i was just with parker a little while ago . i showed him this video of arianna , and he would like to pencil in a playdate with her as soon as she can talk . lucas : oh , really ? adrienne : [ laughs ] she really is beautiful . lucas : she is . i just got back from seeing her . she 's changed a lot already . adrienne : oh , i know , right ? you know what ? let me show you this . it is so cool that we can record these memories . that way , we can never forget . [ laughs ] lucas : yeah . adrienne : i think that 's so neat . hold on . i 'm -- i 'm still kinda new to this . lucas : high tech ? adrienne : yeah , right . [ heart monitor beeping ] kayla : rafe , hi . do you know who i am ? kate : and me ? kayla : good . all right , listen , i do n't want you to exert yourself . you do n't need to say a word . i have one more question . do you know where you are ? rafe : [ sighs ] kayla : good . well , he 's oriented to person and place . that 's a good sign . rafe : [ sighs ] kate : rafe . kayla : it 's okay . it 's all right , take it easy . take it easy . rafe : why ? [ sighs ] sonny : you know what i was thinking ? next time there 's a party , why do n't you go , and i 'll stay ? will : that 's okay . i was never really into that scene anyway . sonny : all right , well , i have a better idea . how about gabi stays home with ari , and you and i can go on a nice , romantic date ? just the two of us ? will : that sounds sexy . sonny : yeah ? will : [ laughs ] sonny : let 's make it happen . will : okay . sonny : all right ? i 'm gon na go shower . will : okay . sonny : bye - bye . i 'm gon na shower .

[ sighs ] and it could happen sooner than you think . chad : hello to you too . what are you talking about ? abigail : what you were talking to cameron about , and i 'm telling you , this is a bad idea . chad : why ? abigail : because it 's not your decision to make . chad : no ? then whose decision is it ? abigail : oh , my god , do you even have to ask , chad ? it 's mine . chad : [ scoffs ] brent : yeah , it must have slipped off his wrist without him noticing . will : yeah , well , it 's not the first time it 's happened , so -- [ knocks at door ] lucas : hey , will , i ... will : hey . lucas : oh , sorry . will : um , dad , this is sonny 's friend , uh , brent . and this is my dad . brent : nice to meet you , mr. horton . lucas : nice to meet you . brent : oh , congrats on the baby . lucas : thank you . thank you , i appreciate that . on that note , i 'm gon na take a little peek at the princess . how you doing ? will : good . lucas : oh , man , look at her . brent : look , so i can just go to the coffee shop , grab a latte , and give this to sonny . will : no , no , do n't go out of your way . he 's gon na be home soon , so ... brent : okay . will : did you guys have fun last night ? brent : yeah . yeah , we had a great time . uh , i have n't been to a party like that since -- well , since probably the last time i went out with sonny . will : hmm . cool . brent : what about you ? how was your night ? will : great . ari slept , i slept . sleep is pretty awesome these days . brent : i bet . will : mm - hmm . anyway , thanks so much for bringing this by . brent : yeah , yeah , sure . see you around . will : yeah , all right , see ya . brent : nice to meet you . lucas : yeah , you too . take care . let me just get this straight for a second . you let sonny go out with that guy last night while you stayed home , took a nap with the baby ? will : um , well , um , yeah . lucas : and sonny 's watch did n't make it home ? come on , man . is something wrong with this picture ? adrienne : so let me get this straight . you went to a party with another guy without will ? sonny : it was just brent . do you remember him ? he was the guy that had ... adrienne : oh , the cast . sonny : the cast for six months , yeah . adrienne : oh , my god , yes . now i remember . [ gasps ] i thought he went to study in europe . sonny : he did . adrienne : he did . sonny : yeah , but now he 's back . adrienne : well , that 's great . well , that 's important . sonny : what 's important ? adrienne : well , that you 're seeing people , that -- that you 're having a social life again . sonny : i never stopped having a social life . what , you think when will and i moved in together , i just told all my friends to go to hell ? is that what you think ? adrienne : no , of course not . that 's not what i 'm saying . sonny : well , then what do you think ? can you -- can you just be direct with me for a change ? please ? adrienne : fine . all i 'm saying is that i 'm relieved to see that maybe you 're getting a little of your old life back . that 's all . sonny : my old life back ? adrienne : mm - hmm . sweetheart , you 're young , much too young to be trapped in an apartment night after night , cooking , cleaning , and baby - sitting . sonny : all right , just stop , stop , stop , stop . first of all , i am not trapped anywhere . i am exactly where i wan na be . and second of all , will , gabi , and i , we share the cooking and cleaning responsibilities . so for you to think that i 'm doing all the housework is crazy , not to mention totally unfair to will and gabi . adrienne : all right , you know what , you just -- sonny : no , no . and another thing , you know what ? i 'm not gon na calm down until you get this through your head -- that we take turns doing what needs to be done . and i am in no way being taken advantage of . and every night is not a big , boring drag of cooking and cleaning and changing diapers . we all pitch in . and sometimes , guess what . guess what we do . adrienne : what ? sonny : we have fun . and we talk to one another . and we watch movies and play video games and tell jokes -- adrienne : okay , fine , fine , fine , shh , stop . i get it . your life is wonderful and fun and full of laughter . and a great time is had by all . excellent , excellent . all i 'm saying is , i think young people should go out and meet other young people , that they should have experiences , that they should have variety in their life . that 's all i 'm saying . sonny : please , please , please , please , please . can you listen to me , mother ? adrienne : i am . sonny : i do not want or need to meet new people or have variety in my life because i know that 's code for `` if you would just break up with will , i would be happy . `` but guess what . that is not your decision . and it is not happening , not now , not ever . adrienne : can you see into the future ? sonny : i am not having this conversation with you right now . adrienne : look , stop being so defensive , and you know what ? another thing , stop putting words in my mouth . i never once in this conversation said you should break up with will , never . sonny : no , but i can read between the lines . adrienne : oh , god . am i a bad mother because i want my son to have some fun and excitement in his life ? so that he 's not bogged down with this huge responsibility while he 's still trying to find his way ?

brent : actually , i have been traveling through the u.k. and france and a little bit of spain . adrienne : really ? fascinating . brent : yeah , studying architecture and design . adrienne : wow , wow . you know , when sonny was a little boy , he used to dream about growing up to be indiana jones . sonny : [ chuckles ] that 's -- that 's archaeology . adrienne : i know that . the point is he used to build these elaborate buildings , and then he 'd destroy them only to build them back up again . it was really interesting . so do you plan on being in salem for a while ? brent : um , yeah . i 'm planning on sticking around for a while . i never thought i 'd miss it so much , you know ? adrienne : well , great . hope to see more of you . brent : me too . sonny : um , i 'll get those coffees for you in one second , okay ?

will : what about the baby 's father ? lucas : what about where 's gabi now ? will : [ sighs ] she had a class , dad . i do n't know why you 're so worried about this . everything is going great with us . lucas : if things are going so great , what 's sonny doing out with another guy , partying it up , doing whatever he want -- will : they 're -- they 're friends . lucas : really ? will : dad , not everything is about sex , you know . lucas : whoa , whoa , ease back on that . i 'm not talking about sex . i 'm just saying , why would -- why would sonny think it was cool to leave you alone here and party his life away ? will : i told -- because i told him to . that 's why . eric : what are you getting at , kristen ? kristen : do you ever have doubts , father ? eric : everyone has doubts . kristen : of course . because there 's so little to hold on to in life , right ? so little that truly lasts . certainly not love . not family . not even your deepest - held beliefs . and certainly nothing of the flesh . eric : everything in life is fleeting . kristen : right . which is why it 's so important to keep your eye on the prize , the hereafter . but if you already know that you 're going to hell , what 's the point of even trying ? eric : but god always forgives . kristen : mm . yeah . but people do n't . eric : cuts both ways , does n't it ? kristen : i suppose . but since i know that i 'm never gon na be redeemed in the eyes of the people that i care about , i feel free of duty , of responsibility . eric : love . what does that leave you with ? kristen : oh , my goodness , father . limitless possibilities . i can be myself . i can focus on my needs and my wants . and honestly , i ca n't deny myself any longer . that 's why i 'm here . it took years to build this business . eric : you seem to be having trouble coming out and saying what you wan na tell me . kristen : [ sighs ] i suppose that 's true . eric : well , if you wan na make a confession -- kristen : oh , no , no , no . nothing that formal . i just wan na get something off my chest . eric : to me ? kristen : yeah . you 're such a great listener . i mean , amongst so many other talents . eric : talk to me , our personal history aside , of course . kristen : hmm , what a history it i eric : you know you can tell me anything . kristen : be careful what you wish for . lucas : wait a minute , you told sonny to go out with an old friend for a night on the town while you stayed home and baby - sat ? will : it 's not baby - sitting if it 's your own kid , dad . lucas : [ sighs ] you know what i mean . come on . why ? why d you do that ? will : because it 's sonny . he 's the guy who climbed k2 , okay ? i 'm not gon na ask him to give up everything that he used to love . lucas : sometimes , that 's what being a parent means . you know , you got ta do that for a while . will : he 's not a parent . yes , he stepped up in a major way , but he 's not a parent , dad . lucas : but what , what 's he doing now , complaining about it ? is that it ? will : no , he loves ari . and he is so amazing with her . all right ? and when she 's older , then we can go off , and we can travel , and we can do everything that we love to do together . okay , stop looking at me like i 'm crazy . lucas : i 'm not looking at you like you 're crazy . i 'm just -- you know , you 're -- you 're mature , you 're -- old soul . you 're very old for your age . will : aw . well , having a kid can do that to you . lucas : well , it did n't do that to me . and your mother 's got , like , four kids , and she still acts like she 's 12 , so it did n't work on her either . i think you 've lapped us , to say the least . will : no , just wait till i call you in the middle of the night freaking out when she has a fever or something . lucas : i used to do that . your great - grandma alice used to help me out all the time . so i know exactly what to do , and i know that she would be very proud of you . she would . will : thanks . lucas : and i know i ca n't take credit for that , but i will anyway . will : oh , god , i got my -- lucas : i love you , man . will : i love you too . sonny : there you go . brent : thank you , sir . sonny : you 're welcome . brent : good to see you again . adrienne : good to see you too , brett , take care . brent : see ya . adrienne : [ chuckles ] sonny : will you stop ? adrienne : stop what ? sonny : you do n't think i remember what you did with me and brian ? it 's the same exact thing . you were pushing us together when i clearly wanted to be with will . okay , i 'm not gon na have you do that again . adrienne : i was n't . honestly , i would n't . sonny : no , no , you were n't ? `` bye - bye . hope to see more of you . `` what was that ? adrienne : he 's your friend . you want me to say , `` i hope to see less of you ? `` sonny : no , i do n't wan na do this again , please . this is my life and my business . you ca n't tell me who i can spend more or less time with . do you understand that ? adrienne : all right , fine . do whatever you want . for your information , i 'm very interested in architecture . sonny : what kind of insane non sequitur is that ? adrienne : ever since i got married in greece before you were born -- because ... sonny : but what in the world does this have to do with anything we 're talking about ? adrienne : when i said , `` i 'd like to see more of you , `` i 'd like him to meet uncle victor . sonny : [ groans ] adrienne : he 's a very personable young man . he 's very intelligent . i mean , people would like to talk to him . sonny : oh , okay . so he 's all those qualities that will does n't have . i see . adrienne : stop putting words in my mouth . i 'm trying here . ca n't you see how hard i 'm trying ? sonny : why do you have to try so hard ? adrienne : [ sighs ] sonny : it 's simple . i love will . and he loves me . he 's a great guy . is that not good enough for you ? adrienne : i want the very best for my son . sonny : i have the very best . i got ta go . adrienne : sonny , i did n't -- sonny : you know what , mom ? we might not have the most conventional family , but it 's working . so you have a choice to make . you can accept us or forget about us . eric : be careful what i wish for ? kristen : you seem to think that i came here to unburden myself somehow . and really , i just wan na make a simple request . eric : really ? kristen : yeah , really . i mean , when you think of all the time and energy and not to mention the money that i sank into this school project . and although it was unfortunate i could n't see it through to the enid my contribution really mean so little ? eric : you know you have my gratitude . kristen : aw , that 's so sweet . but did my invitation to the reception with the bishop get lost in the mail ? eric : it 's a very small reception . kristen : [ chuckles ] i know . i 've lost a lot . it would mean so much to me if i could attend . cameron : so i do n't have to sweat being dueled to the death .

[ scene_break ] aidan : that 's a good call , ryan . tad : how 'd you know ? ryan : because braden and i used to stay up late after the old man finally passed out , and we used to -- we used to dream up these kind of cruel and unusual ways to kill him and hang up the belt for good . poisoned gas sprayed out of the toy , that was braden 's idea , but death by short circuit ? that was mine . you know , one flip of the switch and the old man would be gone . you know , we came up with all sorts of lethal surprises . so you see ? braden 's just not trying to kill me . he wants me to die by the same slow torture that we planned for dad . ryan : no , that 's too obvious . tad : ryan , one thing i do n't understand . if you guys stuck it out together so long , why would he want to go after you the way you wanted to go after your father ? ryan : i 'm still trying to figure that out . maybe because i was able to walk out of here without all the baggage that he took . i mean , he picked up dad 's rage and he just held on to it . aidan : and what did you take out of here ? ryan : me ? i tried to take nothing out of here , not a damn thing . i was lucky to get out of here alive . i did n't ever look back . but braden -- i mean , i do n't know . home just had a way of following him around . he could n't get this place out of his head . tad : how is that your fault ? ryan : maybe braden needs me to be as damaged and messed up as he is , and because i 'm not i need to be punished . or maybe he just never forgave me for me turning my back on him . i mean , when braden left this place and went off and -- and , you know , attacked women or whatever the hell he was doing , he no longer existed for me . i mean , i sent post cards back here to jonathan and erin sometimes , but even i ditched that . anything -- my family , my past , anything that would slow me down and tie me back to this place , i just tossed -- braden , jonathan , even erin -- out of my sight , out of my mind . tad : until braden showed up in pine valley the first time . ryan : yeah , and he rapes jack 's sister and he convinced me to take the rap . he guilts me to take the fall . and then i finally get out of jail , i go to him , i try and find him and convince him to do the right thing , you know , get some help , and what does he do ? he just beats the crap out of me dad - style and he leaves town . and you know what ? hey , that 's fine with me . i mean , that 's cool , because then i can stop thinking about him again . here 's this -- all this evil running around free , and it 's fine with me , because , you know , it does n't touch me . aidan : is that the same deal as your other brother ? ryan : jonathan ? no , my dad saved the worst for last , and i did n't know . but i did n't really want to know . i never really called to check up on him . i was just , like , completely out of here . and then he shows up in pine valley and it 's braden all over again , but i did n't want to see it . i did n't want to deal with it . i did n't want to open the door that i slammed shut when i left this place . but then he hurt maggie , he terrorized bianca , covered for braden , and that 's when it hit me that it 's my family and -- and , you know , no matter what , sooner or later , as much as you want to believe it never happened , your past catches up with you , but it ends now . you understand ? and that 's why i 'm here . all the insanity that started here with my dad ends here . that 's why i have to face braden down . that 's why i 'll take whatever he thinks that i have coming to me , and then i 'm going to bring him down and i 'm going to put him away . and after that 's done , i 'm going to make sure jonathan gets the help he needs , and i 'm going to do it for them , but i 'm going to do it for me , too , because this -- this is the only chance that i have of moving on , you know , of starting a family ? greenlee , a future ? just her and me .

[ scene_break ] aidan : that 's a good call , ryan . tad : how 'd you know ? ryan : because braden and i used to stay up late after the old man finally passed out , and we used to -- we used to dream up these kind of cruel and unusual ways to kill him and hang up the belt for good . poisoned gas sprayed out of the toy , that was braden 's idea , but death by short circuit ? that was mine . you know , one flip of the switch and the old man would be gone . you know , we came up with all sorts of lethal surprises . so you see ? braden 's just not trying to kill me . he wants me to die by the same slow torture that we planned for dad . ryan : no , that 's too obvious . tad : ryan , one thing i do n't understand . if you guys stuck it out together so long , why would he want to go after you the way you wanted to go after your father ? ryan : i 'm still trying to figure that out . maybe because i was able to walk out of here without all the baggage that he took . i mean , he picked up dad 's rage and he just held on to it . aidan : and what did you take out of here ? ryan : me ? i tried to take nothing out of here , not a damn thing . i was lucky to get out of here alive . i did n't ever look back . but braden -- i mean , i do n't know . home just had a way of following him around . he could n't get this place out of his head . tad : how is that your fault ? ryan : maybe braden needs me to be as damaged and messed up as he is , and because i 'm not i need to be punished . or maybe he just never forgave me for me turning my back on him . i mean , when braden left this place and went off and -- and , you know , attacked women or whatever the hell he was doing , he no longer existed for me . i mean , i sent post cards back here to jonathan and erin sometimes , but even i ditched that . anything -- my family , my past , anything that would slow me down and tie me back to this place , i just tossed -- braden , jonathan , even erin -- out of my sight , out of my mind . tad : until braden showed up in pine valley the first time . ryan : yeah , and he rapes jack 's sister and he convinced me to take the rap . he guilts me to take the fall . and then i finally get out of jail , i go to him , i try and find him and convince him to do the right thing , you know , get some help , and what does he do ? he just beats the crap out of me dad - style and he leaves town . and you know what ? hey , that 's fine with me . i mean , that 's cool , because then i can stop thinking about him again . here 's this -- all this evil running around free , and it 's fine with me , because , you know , it does n't touch me . aidan : is that the same deal as your other brother ? ryan : jonathan ? no , my dad saved the worst for last , and i did n't know . but i did n't really want to know . i never really called to check up on him . i was just , like , completely out of here . and then he shows up in pine valley and it 's braden all over again , but i did n't want to see it . i did n't want to deal with it . i did n't want to open the door that i slammed shut when i left this place . but then he hurt maggie , he terrorized bianca , covered for braden , and that 's when it hit me that it 's my family and -- and , you know , no matter what , sooner or later , as much as you want to believe it never happened , your past catches up with you , but it ends now . you understand ? and that 's why i 'm here . all the insanity that started here with my dad ends here . that 's why i have to face braden down . that 's why i 'll take whatever he thinks that i have coming to me , and then i 'm going to bring him down and i 'm going to put him away . and after that 's done , i 'm going to make sure jonathan gets the help he needs , and i 'm going to do it for them , but i 'm going to do it for me , too , because this -- this is the only chance that i have of moving on , you know , of starting a family ? greenlee , a future ? just her and me .

[ scene_break ] jack : craig , hey , you got ta relax . there 's no sign of foul play . craig : jack , one -- if you were n't worried , you would n't be here . two -- if rosanna and paul were supposed to be talking , why did she suddenly stop talking to him ? jack : i ca n't answer that . craig : and three -- why did she suddenly withdraw a large sum of money ? jack : i told you . i 'm working on that . craig : that 's a comfort , jack . a real comfort . jack : what are you doing ? craig : i 'm going to st. bart 's . jack : no ! no ! hold on there , chieftain . there could be a simple explanation for this whole thing . and i 'm not going to let you run out of here half- cocked . craig : she 's still my wife . jack : okay , do you remember when i thought carly went missing ? craig : yes . she went to montana -- jack : that 's right . i jumped to conclusions and i ended up blaming the wrong person . you remember that ? craig : you blamed rosanna . jack : right . not my finest hour . but while rosanna is carly 's sister and i want to do everything to make sure that she 's not in any trouble , i also want to make sure that we take this one step at a time . first we find digrassi and then we decide if there 's something to worry about . i mean , for all we know , this could just be rosanna 's way of cutting ties with her old life . and if you go looking for her , it could just make things worse . craig : so she 's doing all this just to get away from me . jack : i think it 's a simple assumption , seeing that you 're the reason she 's running in the first place . craig : you are worried , jack . jack : all i 'm saying is , sit tight for now . i 'll keep you in the loop .

[ scene_break ] robin : you want to bring duke back ... to life ? olivia jerome : i hear the skepticism in your voice , and i 'm really disappointed . i would think that a person with your skills and knowledge , education , would be more aware . when i was away from port charles , i - i studied every kind of culture and philosophy , and i learned so many things , and i 've seen marvelous miracles happen . most of all , i 've -- i 've expanded my consciousness . robin : what does that mean ? olivia : death is a failure of perception . it 's a transitory state . it 's changeable . whereas life is tenacious , clever , inventive . life seeks to help us . sometimes we need to give life a helping hand . robin : so ... you want to resurrect duke in the basement of general hospital ?

[ chuckles ] olivia : oh ! i carry this around with me . i 've carried it for years . it 's a lock of duke 's hair , and it has his dna . so that should be enough . robin : i 'm so sorry . i mean , even if that is duke 's dna , it 's -- it 's -- it 's not enough . olivia : it has to be ! i ca n't give up on duke ! robin : i understand your heartbreak . i do . i -- i lost my first love , too . stone -- i lost him as a teenager , but i - i ca n't bring him back . just like you ca n't bring duke back , you know ? a - all we can do is really live our lives in their honor , and , uh -- i really believe that duke would want you to make the most of your time . you know , duke would -- he would want you to be happy . olivia : it 's not possible without duke . robin : i disagree . my life has moved on . i have patrick . olivia : [ sighs ] robin : you can move on , too . olivia : mm . robin : you can . let me show you . [ chains jostle ] olivia : [ gasps ] oh , my god ! look what you made me do ! i have to get all of this ! i have to get it all ! robin : wait -- wait -- wait -- is this -- oh , i 'm sorry ! let me help you . olivia : no ! you made me do this ! you have destroyed the very last pieces i ever had of him . [ sighs ] robin : that 's not true . remember what you were saying before that duke is still here in spirit ? he left a little piece of himself in all of our hearts , so as long as we remember -- olivia : that is not good enough ! it 's just not ! you did have one good idea , though . [ exhales sharply ] he left another piece of himself . he left another piece of himself behind . robin : i am , um , very sorry . and we 're gon na get the phone- his phone , uh out of you ... as soon as- [ scene_break ] anna : how is he ? griffin : it 's not that severe . anna : [ sighs ] he 's gon na survive ? griffin : he will recover again . anna : so , i had the patrol unit check out the car that he was found in -- you know , see if there 's anything there . olivia -- she must know that she 's being hunted now , that she 's running out of time , because why would she leave julian alive ? griffin : well , maybe she 's not as bloodthirsty as you think . anna : or maybe she thought she 'd have time to go back and get him ? perhaps there 's another reason that she came to town ? it 's not just to get even with her brother for what he did to duke . i 'll tell you one thing -- i 'm really glad she does n't know you exist . griffin : now , how can you be so sure ? anna : if she knew that you were duke 's son , you would have been her first stop . [ scene_break ] diane : well , that was not my finest moment . i owe all of you an apology for my lapse in judgment . i was talking to her for more than 10 minutes , and i had no idea who she was . lulu : how will this affect our case ? diane : it wo n't . but as i tried to explain before , securing sole custody is very difficult . lulu : valentin murdered my brother . diane : but we ca n't prove that . all i can do is present you and dante as exactly who and what you are -- loving and stable parents . it helps our case that valentin has led a relatively unsettled and undocumented life . dante : will that be enough ? diane : i do n't like to engage in speculation . i have several angles that i 'm going to pursue , but nora buchanan is no pushover . she 's going to present valentin in the best light possible . [ scene_break ] valentin : so , what do we think of lulu 's attorney ? nora : she 's good . she 's good . i mean , i tripped her up getting her to talk , but when she found out who i was , she barely blinked . [ chuckles ] and although she did n't say his name , she alluded to the fact that she 's on retainer to sonny corinthos . valentin : yeah , lulu is married to ... his son . nora : hmm . okay . well , my point is , ms. miller makes a very nice living keeping sonny corinthos out of prison and making sure he gets what he wants , and he clearly wants his daughter - in - law to get charlotte . so ms. miller 's gon na come after us with everything she has . valentin : which is why i took the precaution of hiring you . you have a formidable reputation yourself . nora : well , thank you , but lawyers ' tricks only go so far . it 's very important how you and nina present yourself to the court , so i really would like to review her testimony . when is she arriving ? valentin : nina may not be joining us . nora : for the briefing ? valentin : at all . [ scene_break ] nina : [ sighs deeply ] hey , mrs. evans . can you put charlotte on the phone , please ? hey ! hi , sweetie . how are you ? i know . i 'm sorry i could n't tuck you in . [ voice breaking ] i 'm sorry . [ normal voice ] i just -- i h -- yeah . i had to work late . it 's a grown - up thing , you know ? adults -- it 's what happens sometimes . okay , i will make it up to you . i promise . [ chuckles ] you want me to make it up to you now . okay . [ exhales ] what can i do ? what do you want me to do ? [ laughing ] no . hey , you know what ? let 's , um -- let 's -- let 's sing the song that we made up the words to , you know , that lullaby . you want to sing that together ? would that make it up to you ? okay . ready ? one , two , three ... [ voice breaking ] all of the stars in the sky that are shining all of the fish in the sea that are swimming all of birds in the trees that are sing -- good job . [ scene_break ] lulu : oh , my god . i just got a text from maxie . get this -- valentin and nina are on the rocks . this is the opening that we need . dante : okay , settle down . maxie 's not the most reliable source in the world , okay ? lulu : oh , but she is where nina 's concerned . if nina 's insta - marriage to valentin is unraveling , that means they are n't providing charlotte with a stable home . laura : do you agree with that , diane ? diane : mm - hmm . we can spin this . valentin 's marriage and charlotte 's fondness for nina are his biggest assets . laura : would you excuse me for a moment ? dante : look , nina 's desire to be a mom might outweigh whatever problems she 's having with valentin . lulu : then we have to act fast , while the problems are still hot . [ scene_break ] nora : whatever your argument was with nina , apologize . i mean it . whatever -- whatever it takes , just lock her down , get her to the courtroom standing beside you like a devoted wife . valentin : i ca n't guarantee that that 's gon na happen . nora : mr. cassadine , uh , you are a man with an ad - admittedly questionable past . lulu falconeri is married , stable , and has a stack of affidavits as thick as a phone book all supporting her as a parent . if you do n't provide a loving , warm maternal figure for charlotte to the court , here are your likely results -- one , you 're either gon na have to share custody with lulu or you 're gon na lose custody entirely . [ scene_break ] lulu : we all know that nina is emotionally reckless . if she 's angry with valentin right now , we need to take advantage of that , push her further away from him . dante : i think you 're playing with fire . she 's unpredictable . you 're either gon na push nina further away from him or right back into his arms . [ scene_break ] nina : [ sighs ] [ footsteps approach ] laura : nina ? nina : uh , you know , laura , this is not a good time . i 'm actually very swamped . laura : i think you will want to make time for this , nina . i have a proposition for you . [ scene_break ] griffin : since i ca n't talk you out of risking yourself , can i , uh , at least ask you to be careful ? anna : i will . i promise . griffin : okay . i , uh -- i got to go make my rounds . anna : if you see robin , could you tell her to stop dawdling and get up here ? griffin : wait , you 're staying ? anna : well , not as a patient , no . but i - i ca n't leave him on his own until the police get here , right ? griffin : [ chuckles ] right . take care , anna . [ door opens , closes ] anna : my god . you 're like a cat with nine lives . julian : [ exhales sharply ] where am i ? anna : you 're in the hospital . you were found tied up in the trunk of a car . olivia did this to you , did n't she ? [ scene_break ] olivia jerome : what floor ? griffin : uh , seven . thank you . olivia : good . we 're both going down . [ scene_break ] anna : julian ! julian ! hey ! julian : w - what ? anna : listen to me . stop playing games . where is olivia ? huh ? where is she ? she 's the one that put you in the trunk , is n't she ? why ? what is her plan ? julian : she 's here , anna . she never left . [ scene_break ] griffin : hello , again . we , uh -- we met in the garage earlier . you back to see your friend ? olivia jerome : you remember me . griffin : ah , those -- those eyes are hard to forget . you 're quite memorable . olivia : [ laughs ] oh , yeah . so are you . just as memorable as the man i loved -- your father , duke . [ next_on ] laura ( to nina ) : i think that we can both have what we want . nora : valentin , do we have your wife 's support during this case ? lulu ( to diane ) : why should n't we use that to our advantage ? valerie ( to alexis & lucas ) : i need you to come with me . anna : julian ? wake up ! wake up ! you need to tell me where olivia is ! olivia ( to griffin ) : yes . i 'm olivia jerome . the person you 're going to spend the rest of your life with . | diane is at the metro court bar , and finds that nora buchanan ( one life to live ) is sitting next to her . she does n't know this and starts to talk about nora and how she is a tough lawyer . nora loves diane 's books . diane and her , hit it off when lulu , laura , and dante show up . valentin does as well and calls nora by name . nora wishes her luck as she goes to speak to valentin alone . dine promises that nora will not be an issue in court but it could be tricky . lulu receives a text from maxie informing her that nina and valentin are on the rocks . laura excuses herself . elsewhere , nora explains to valentin that he better figures out a way to keep nina on his good side . he could lose bad if he does n't . in nina 's office at crimson , she is unsure of what to do . she calls charlotte up and starts to cry . laura walks in and has a proposition for her . | <s>[INST] diane : [ sighs ] excuse me , is this seat taken ? nora : oh , no , by all means . diane : oh , thank you . nora : mm . love that purse . diane : right ? it 's kind of fabulous , is n't it ? nora : oh , yeah . diane : it 's a present i gave myself after a particularly big win . chris : the usual espresso , ms. miller ? diane : chris , how many times do i have to tell you ? it 's `` diane . `` please . chris : sure thing , diane . diane : make it a double espresso this morning . i have a huge day of litigation ahead of me , and i need all the caffeine i can get . nora : litigation ? you must be an attorney . diane : mm - hmm . [ chuckles ] nora : a big case ? diane : well , yes , but the real issue is going to be the opposing counsel -- llanview , pennsylvania 's , own woman of the year ms. nora buchanan . her reputation is excellent , so of course , i have to bring my `` a `` game , but then again , i always do . nora : [ chuckles ] it sounds like ms. buchanan has got a fight on her hands . diane : one which i fully intend to win .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : thank you for driving me back to work . franco : no problem . i know for a fact you did n't get any rest between shifts , so ... elizabeth : oh , i think i had enough rest during the sick - out . you know , you could have just dropped me off out front . franco : are you kidding ? with that crazy woman olivia jerome on the loose ? leave it to ava and julian to have a sister crazier than they are . elizabeth : i do n't think i 'm in any danger . i was n't even living here when all that happened . franco : okay , if there 's one thing i learned from being heather webber 's son , it 's that that crazy does n't discriminate . [ scene_break ] anna : olivia jerome is a vicious lunatic , and she 's responsible for your brother 's death . dante : [ exhales sharply ] i looked into her records . she 's , uh , amassed quite a few felonies , spent some time in a mental hospital . anna : she should have stayed there . dante : pretty obsessed with duke , too , went to some extreme measures to get you out of the way . anna : yeah , you could say that . dante : look ... duke is gone , but you 're not . a very good chance that olivia jerome is out to get you . anna : i 'm kind of counting on that .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : honestly , i am happy that you 're walking me to the door . franco : mm - hmm . elizabeth : do you think you can pick me up tonight , too ? franco : yeah , sure . no problem . elizabeth : after seeing what happened to sam , it does give me the creeps to think what olivia jerome might be capable of . franco : how is sam ? how 's she doing ? her and the baby okay ? elizabeth : yeah , they were okay when i left last night , which was a miracle considering everything she 's been through . what kind of monster pushes a pregnant lady off a footbridge and leaves her to die ? franco : if i were you , i would n't mention anything about what sam 's been through anywhere where jake can hear you . elizabeth : why do you say that ? franco : i 'll tell you tonight . elizabeth : you can tell me now . franco : okay . um , so i was telling jake that he had a little sister , and he asked about sam , and i said that she was sick , but that the doctors were working really hard to get her better , and his reaction was really weird . and then he said something chilling . he said that sam had a really , really bad curse on her .

[ grunts ] olivia : [ hushed ] there you go . robin : everyone thought you were dead for 25 years . olivia : [ normal voice ] well , they were wrong . i 'm back and better than ever . robin : so , why now ? if you were gone for so long , why not just stay gone ? olivia : circumstances demanded that i return . robin : i do n't understand . what circumstances ? you mean because julian and ava live here ? because your family 's here ? olivia : no . this has nothing to do with life . this has to do with death . murder , actually ... of my one true love -- [ hushed ] duke . [ scene_break ] anna : hey , robin , it 's me . i 'm ready to be discharged , so you can just text me or call me when you 're on your way over . um ... you and i -- we need to have a conversation about what you withheld from me last night , okay ? i love you . dante : [ sighs ] you know , you should go easy on robin . she 's just concerned for your health -- did n't want to give you one more thing to upset you . anna : well , i 'm not -- i 'm not frail . dante : i know . but she 's a doctor and your daughter , and she knows a hell of a lot more about this illness than you do . anna : i 'm not an invalid , either . dante : no one 's saying you are . [ exhales sharply ] okay ? anna : but you agree with me , do n't you , that we need to lure olivia out of hiding ? a - and i am the perfect bait for that . [ door opens ] dante : [ scoffs ] griffin : bait for wait ? [ door closes ] griffin : you better be talking about your dating life . dante : no , no . your cancer patient here seems to have a death wish . [ scene_break ] valentin : i was not with anna devane last night . i was home with charlotte , waiting for you . here . she drew that for you last night . nina : sweet . valentin : and this morning , she was asking for you . well , i texted mrs. evans . was she not with her ? nina : no , of course she was . but she does n't sing to her . she does n't jump up and down on the bed with her . she likes mrs. evans , but she adores you . you 're the one she wants to see in the morning . me , too . nina : i thought we were talking about charlotte . valentin : well , you knew when you married me that we were a package deal . nina : i love being charlotte 's stepmother . i love it . what i do n't love is you keeping secrets from me . [ scene_break ] diane : well , every case has its challenges , and the moment you think you have a slam dunk , then there are these twists and turns that just leave you scrambling . nora : [ chuckles ] diane : i try to prepare for every eventuality just in case it ... i just -- i 'm doing all the talking about my work . i 'm so sorry . nora : oh , no , no , no , no . i completely get it . i 've been known to obsess over my job . [ chuckles ] good . i mean , besides , i - i -- i do have an advantage over you . i know who you are . diane : have we met ? nora : no , no , no ! but you are the diane miller , right ? a - attorney by day and novelist by night ? diane : you know my work ? nora : i love your books ! diane : oh , gosh ! nora : i do ! diane : [ laughs ] nora : how much longer do we have to wait for the next adventure of damian spinelli ? diane : oh , i 'm not sure . i have n't actually been able to write at all lately . my legal clients are taking up all of my time . nora : aw ! [ scene_break ] franco : hey , i 'm no art therapist , at least not anymore , but , um , i would say that jake has some unresolved issues about what happened on that creepy island with that creepy helena . elizabeth : it -- nothing about the way jake 's been acting tells me he 's anything but a happy - go - lucky kid , and i desperately want that for him . i think he -- he deserves to just be a kid for a while . franco : yeah ? okay . elizabeth : [ sighs ] your art therapy was such a big help . it 's -- it 's so short - sighted for the board to shut down that program . i got to go . franco : okay . elizabeth : will you pick me up at 6 : 00 ? franco : yeah . elizabeth : thanks . [ scene_break ] diane : normally , i do n't take custody cases because they 're messy and emotions run very , very high , and it 's very rare that everyone walks away with a happy ending . nora : so , why this one ? diane : well , i 'm on retainer to a very ... particular man with a very particular reputation . i happen to think very highly of him because , by his own standards , he 's a man of honor . nothing comes before family with him . in fact , his daughter - in - law is my client in this case ... nora : oh ! diane : ... and so he insisted on her having the best representation available , and it happens to be me . nora : okay . [ chuckles ] so , how do you win a custody case ? diane : well , it 's -- it 's very tricky . it 's a balancing act ... nora : right . diane : ... because you want to discredit the other parent , but you do n't want to appear overly aggressive or engaging in speculative accusations , because you 'll alienate the court . and above all , you want to paint your client as having the best interests of the child in mind at all times . nora : right . laura : hello , diane . diane : in fact , there are my clients now . hi , laura . hi , lulu . i 'd like to introduce you to my new friend . i just realized i never got your name . [ scene_break ] valentin : you misunderstand anna 's place in my life . nina : okay , well , then you tell me anna 's place . you -- you tell me what it is . um ... why 'd she break in to our home ? and you tell me why that does n't make you angry . valentin : i - i do n't know how i would have reacted if she had n't passed out on the floor in front of me , but she did , and i do n't want to make her life more difficult . a - and just because of that does n't mean i have some -- some deep , dark feelings for anna . anna : i wish i could believe you , but i really do n't . i - i think whatever you share with anna has you all tied up inside . valentin : nina , anna devane is the past . you , charlotte -- you 're my present . you 're my future . now , can we please stop talking about anna devane and focus on the hearing , which is gon na start in a few hours ? you and i have to present a united front . so , is that gon na be possible ? [ scene_break ] griffin : what is dante talking about , and why are you dressed ? dante : what , did you think you were gon na walk out of here with no one noticing ? griffin : i 'm not signing off on your paperwork to leave , anna . anna : you 're not my doctor . griffin : oh , finn 's not signing off , either . look , i know you 're stubborn , but i 'm giving you sound medical advise . dante : okay . i 'm gon na let you two sort this out , okay ? anna : such a coward . dante : yep . oh . and do n't do anything stupid because i wo n't be able to back you up . i 'll be in court . anna : is it the custody hearing today ? dante : yeah , wish me luck . anna : yeah , i do . i 'm with your family 100 % . dante : thanks . griffin : give valentin hell , and get charlotte from that bastard once and for all . dante : happily . see you . [ door closes ] [ scene_break ] robin : so , you want revenge , then , because julian ordered the hit on duke ? olivia jerome : [ sighs ] well , i was halfway around the world when i found out that duke had returned to port charles . i was in a very dangerous place , and i could n't leave . by the time i was able to reunite with duke , julian had taken him from me again . so julian has a terrible debt to pay . that 's why i 'm back here -- to right julian 's wrong . robin : you mean here in port charles . olivia : uh , no , i mean here in general hospital . i have to restore balance . robin : what does that mean ? olivia : well , obviously ... i have to bring duke back ! [ scene_break ] nina : you know , i 've been focusing on the ways we 're alike . i have n't really paid attention on how we 're different . that spy training really did you some good , did n't it ? 'cause you 're impossible to read . you only give away what you want to , do n't you ? i , on the other hand , uh , reveal everything . i wear my heart on my sleeve , and this thing with anna makes me angry . it makes me angry and confused . and i 'm mad and i 'm hurt . and if i show up in court today , i 'm afraid i wo n't be able to hide it . valentin : `` if . `` so there 's some question you 're gon na show up in court . nina : i think i might do you more harm than good . valentin : i think you need to think about your life , about our life with our daughter , and whether it 's what you want . and in the meantime , i 'm gon na be in court fighting for it . [ scene_break ] diane : we 've been chatting this entire time , and i never got your name . dante : [ chuckles ] hey . sorry i 'm late . i went to see anna at gh . lulu : oh , no problem . we have n't started yet . laura : yep . we -- we were just about to meet diane 's new friend . valentin : ms. buchanan ! sorry to keep you waiting . already meet my lawyer ? nora : hi . nora buchanan . really a pleasure to make your acquaintance .

[ scene_break ] robin : you want to bring duke back ... to life ? olivia jerome : i hear the skepticism in your voice , and i 'm really disappointed . i would think that a person with your skills and knowledge , education , would be more aware . when i was away from port charles , i - i studied every kind of culture and philosophy , and i learned so many things , and i 've seen marvelous miracles happen . most of all , i 've -- i 've expanded my consciousness . robin : what does that mean ? olivia : death is a failure of perception . it 's a transitory state . it 's changeable . whereas life is tenacious , clever , inventive . life seeks to help us . sometimes we need to give life a helping hand . robin : so ... you want to resurrect duke in the basement of general hospital ? [ scoffs ] we 're in a boiler room . do n't be insane . no , what i need to resurrect duke is beneath general hospital . [ exhales sharply ] oh !

[ chuckles ] olivia : oh ! i carry this around with me . i 've carried it for years . it 's a lock of duke 's hair , and it has his dna . so that should be enough . robin : i 'm so sorry . i mean , even if that is duke 's dna , it 's -- it 's -- it 's not enough . olivia : it has to be ! i ca n't give up on duke ! robin : i understand your heartbreak . i do . i -- i lost my first love , too . stone -- i lost him as a teenager , but i - i ca n't bring him back . just like you ca n't bring duke back , you know ? a - all we can do is really live our lives in their honor , and , uh -- i really believe that duke would want you to make the most of your time . you know , duke would -- he would want you to be happy . olivia : it 's not possible without duke . robin : i disagree . my life has moved on . i have patrick . olivia : [ sighs ] robin : you can move on , too . olivia : mm . robin : you can . let me show you .

[ chuckles ] and although she did n't say his name , she alluded to the fact that she 's on retainer to sonny corinthos . valentin : yeah , lulu is married to ... his son . nora : hmm . okay . well , my point is , ms. miller makes a very nice living keeping sonny corinthos out of prison and making sure he gets what he wants , and he clearly wants his daughter - in - law to get charlotte . so ms. miller 's gon na come after us with everything she has . valentin : which is why i took the precaution of hiring you . you have a formidable reputation yourself . nora : well , thank you , but lawyers ' tricks only go so far . it 's very important how you and nina present yourself to the court , so i really would like to review her testimony . when is she arriving ? valentin : nina may not be joining us . nora : for the briefing ? valentin : at all .

[ scene_break ] nora : whatever your argument was with nina , apologize . i mean it . whatever -- whatever it takes , just lock her down , get her to the courtroom standing beside you like a devoted wife . valentin : i ca n't guarantee that that 's gon na happen . nora : mr. cassadine , uh , you are a man with an ad - admittedly questionable past . lulu falconeri is married , stable , and has a stack of affidavits as thick as a phone book all supporting her as a parent . if you do n't provide a loving , warm maternal figure for charlotte to the court , here are your likely results -- one , you 're either gon na have to share custody with lulu or you 're gon na lose custody entirely .

[ scene_break ] gigi : so guard : ma'am ? gigi : when did you get here ? guard : the woman behind the desk says you did n't pay . rex : oh , that 's -- that 's my fault . i -- i left a ticket out for her , but her sister got here first . it 's a -- it 's a misunderstanding . please tell the lady sorry and , well , this should cover the cost of the additional ticket . we good ? guard : enjoy your evening . gigi : thank you . rex : hey , it 's not every day you get to party with the sister you have n't seen in 10 years . i ca n't believe i did n't recognize you . [ stacy chuckles ] stacy : well , gigi can vouch for me . i know -- no more braids . gigi : or braces . [ stacy chuckles ] gigi : 10 years ? stacy : almost . you look great , by the way . gigi : so do you , especially in my dress . rex : i knew it was the same dress . gigi : rex , it 's not the same dress . it 's my dress , the one that you bought for me to wear tonight . stacy : she always hated it when i borrowed her clothes . gigi : you never borrowed my clothes , you would just take them without asking and you 're still doing it . i ca n't believe you stole my dress and my ticket . i -- i do n't -- i do n't get it . do n't get me wrong . i 'm -- i 'm happy to see you , but what is this ? [ scene_break ] todd : well -- [ téa chuckles ] téa : hmm . todd : i 'm not going to do this sober . téa : oh , whatever gets you through the night . [ scene_break ] stacy : i just wanted to surprise you . gigi : you could 've surprised me at home . what did you do , break into my house ? stacy : you have a key taped on the bottom of your mailbox just like mom did . gigi : why did n't you just wait for me ? stacy : i did , but then when you did n't come home , i saw the dress and the ticket , so -- gigi : and you thought you would just take them . stacy : well , i figured i 'd find you here , so let 's just find some place a little less crowded and celebrate . rex : no clue , seriously . the last time i saw your sister was like -- gigi : braces and zits and -- she 's all grown up now . rex : listen , do n't be ticked about the dress -- be happy . gigi : okay . my sister -- my sister 's here . [ scene_break ] eunice : your names ? john : john mcbain and blair cramer . eunice : but the woman in the red jacket and boots , she said -- blair : she lied , okay ? i do n't know . john . you better keep me away from the window . with téa and marty in the same room , somebody is going to hit the street . [ scene_break ] gigi : so start from the beginning , please . how did you find me ? stacy : i saw you guys in vegas . gigi : in vegas ? well , uh -- when ? i -- i did n't see you . rex : i do n't believe it -- you 're gigi . gigi : what ? rex : the stripper on the poster in the lobby . [ stacy chuckles ] rex : in the casino , that was stacy -- but with brown hair . stacy : it was a wig . gigi : you are not a stripper . stacy : an exotic dancer , and , yes , i was the best -- only i quit . gigi : okay , so you were stripping . and you were using my name . gigi : your stripper name is gigi . [ stacy chuckles ] rex : now , i thought your stripper name was the name of your first pet and the first street you lived on . gigi and stacy : cookie delancey . stacy : you know , i could n't do that one . you know , it 's a tough world , so i wanted to pick a name that made me feel safe -- my sister , gigi , and her big , beautiful brown hair . hey , i 've missed you . gigi : i missed you so much -- so much . oh , god , that 's why you 're so skinny and gorgeous -- because of all that dancing . we 'll talk about the exotic part later . please tell me you kept most of your clothes on . stacy : oh , please . i did n't meet the sucker that could afford these babies . rex : not exactly the answer you were looking for . stacy : relax , okay ? no one got a peek . gigi : right . so what happened , because i did n't see you . stacy : well -- okay . so i was on my way to my first show that day and i saw you guys , but i figured it could n't have been you -- what were the odds ? so i stood there for a while and i realized it was you . but then , i turned around and then you guys were out the door , so i took off after you , but i was in spikes and i got on my coat , ran out the door , and you guys were already off in a cab . so i hopped in a cab , followed you to the airport , and i lost you again . gigi : we went straight to the gate . stacy : and i had no idea where you guys were going to go , so i found this helpful ticket agent who helped me track you down . i guess it did n't hurt that i had my costume on underneath my raincoat . [ stacy chuckles ] stacy : so , i booked a ticket on the next plane , found out your address online , checked out your love nest , dress , ticket -- here i am . bottoms up . [ scene_break ] blair : oh , would you look at noelle ? she looks so happy -- having so much fun . oh , i think i 'm going to go get a drink . todd : excuse me . i think i ordered a double . this does n't look like even a single . blair : what 's going on , todd ? todd : you do n't care , huh ? blair : celebrating your freedom or is this just a new way to relieve stress ? todd : what stress ? blair : i do n't know . watching marty over there with that little -- todd : thank you . blair : rough piece of trade she picked up ? oh , thank you . what gets to you more -- john and me together or marty and her little boy toy ? todd : what about you , blair ? blair : hmm . todd : what gets under your skin ? the fact that john ca n't take his eyes off marty -- thank you -- or the fact that téa 's with me ? [ glasses clink ] [ scene_break ] michael : ooh , there 's some good stuff in here . marcie : let me see . ooh , select harvest healthy request -- i love this soup . you know , it 's really good for you . you should be eating this instead of those cheeseburgers you 're eating at the hospital all the time . michael : see , you 're having a good time tonight , are n't you ? marcie : so ? are you ? michael : i 'm happy when you 're happy . marcie : you were right , you know ? dressing up , getting out of the house , seeing people -- i 'm having fun . i mean , i know i 'm never going to get over losing hope , but at least i 'm starting to have little moments , right ? like right now , i 'm happy . i 'm happy being here with you . you know , it reminds me that life can be good and i can look forward -- to what , i do n't really know exactly just yet , but forward . man : michael ? michael : leon ! hey , marcie , this -- leon , this is marcie . marcie , this is dr. leon baptiste . he 's the first - year surgical resident . marcie : oh , yes . oh , it 's so nice to meet you . michael keeps telling me he 's finally met someone at the hospital who has a sense of humor . leon : well , it helps to keep you sane when you can laugh at the nitwits . [ laughter ] leon : this is my wife , hope . marcie : hi . hope : hi , nice to meet you . marcie : you , too . [ scene_break ] blair : can you handle it ? you ca n't even [ scene_break ] téa : hola . oy , que linda que estas . how are the newlyweds , huh ? [ scene_break ] beaver : and that 's all she wrote . your daddy left this d.v.d . as a codicil to his last will and testament , and before you ask , it 's the real mccoy -- bonded and accredited . now , as to the terms , due to last year 's downturn and the losses incurred by b.e . , asa has cut his family out of the will and left his entire estate -- his house , his money , and his company , all of it -- to you , david . viki : okay . now this all makes sense . [ scene_break ] talia : do n't you look lovely for a murder suspect . téa : oh . come on , talia . you and i both know that lee halpern was violent and dangerous . she came at me , gorgeous , the same way she came at you . luckily , i was tough enough to be able to disarm her and defend myself . someday , you 'll learn how to do that , too . [ talia chuckles ] téa : where 's lola ? vanessa : at home with her cousin , langston . téa : oh . i was hoping we could all have dinner together . hmm ? [ new song plays ] cristian : sure . vanessa : oh , cristian , i love this song . why do n't we dance ? cristian : good . téa : so what , talia ? do n't tell me your man convinced you that i 'm a liar . talia : téa , i do n't need any convincing . excuse me .

[ scene_break ] dorian : david , are you all right ? huh . this is quite a lot to take in . you have found your family and inherited a huge fortune . but it 's all good . you 're going to get the company , the house , all the assets -- everything is yours . natalie : you know , i am sure uncle david is extremely overwhelmed -- i know i am . i mean , you 've just become a buddhist , which is totally cool . but buddhists -- they are n't interested in money or corporations . you know , if grandpa were alive , i know he would be so proud of you . jared : yes , asa was a -- a generous man -- ahem . i 'm sure he knew he could count on you to do the right thing . dorian : all right , can we just stop this right here ? thank you very much . i really think it 's inappropriate to try and get david to divest of something he has n't even had the time to itemize . clint : no , he 's got you for that , does n't he ? dorian : yes , he most certainly does , because i am his wife . frankly , i think we should all be applauding david . he 's just been told that he 's inherited a huge fortune and he 's accepting it with grace and humility . so i think it 's really inappropriate for you to pressure him to give up something that you lost due to your own inadequacy . bo : and what are you pressuring him to do , dorian ? [ scene_break ] gigi : i ca n't believe you 're here . stacy : you 've said that . although , i 'm starting to get the feeling you 're not happy to see me . gigi : oh , no , no . i 'm thrilled to see you . are you kidding ? i 've missed you , like , so much . after i had the baby , i thought that i could finally come home , that once mom and dad saw shane , they 'd -- you know , they 'd forgive me . but when i came back to michigan , you guys -- guys were gone . you had moved and no one -- no one even tried to find me and let me know . it was the worst moment of my life . stacy : yeah , well , believe me , dad was no picnic to live with after you took off . gigi : i did n't take off . stacy , they threw me out on the street because i got pregnant . [ scene_break ] michael : it was wonderful to meet you , hope . hope : nice to meet you , too . michael : and i would really love to get together with you guys sometime , but we -- i have an early call tomorrow , so -- leon : understood . i 'll see you in the morning ? michael : all right . good to see you . leon : nice to meet you , marcie . marcie : oh , yes . nice to meet you -- both of you , yeah . marcie : i thought you had tomorrow morning off , michael . michael : i do . marcie : you saw how i reacted , did n't you ? i 'm sorry . i -- i did n't mean to react that way , michael . michael : no , sweetie , sweetie -- marcie : it 's just that i did n't expect -- michael : it 's fine , it 's fine . marcie : i just kept looking at her , staring at her , thinking `` here 's this grown woman . her name is hope , she 's living her life . `` my baby never got that chance . michael : let 's get out of here . [ scene_break ] marty : i thought you understood . wes : what , that you had a thing for manning ? and now you have a thing for mcbain or you might not or you do n't know ? marty : you know what ? do n't be mean . wes : look -- hey . i know you , probably better than anybody else in this room , okay , at least who you are now . i see it every day . look , i care about you , marty . i think you know that . and whatever it is that you and i have , it -- it works for us . but i 'm not going to stand here and let you embarrass yourself or me . marty : oh -- i was n't trying to embarrass you . wes : look , i know you were n't , okay , but this little game you 're playing -- using me to torture manning and provoke mcbain -- it 's getting old . marty : and i 'm getting a drink . wes : wait , wait [ scene_break ] téa : you 're a good dancer . john : you want to tell me what this is all about ? [ téa chuckles ] téa : well , ca n't a lady ask a gentleman to dance ? oh , you do n't believe me , john ? well , you 're right -- i 'm not making a play for you . you 're not my type . but since i have your attention , i want to know something . john : hmm ? téa : you were there on the day that vanessa shot ray montez at the airport . right ? and there she is laughing and smiling and dancing while ray is in prison in colombia . do you think that 's fair ? john : huh . téa : hmm ? john : hey , you know , you want someone to waltz you over there so you do n't have to read lips ? why me ? téa : because todd is doing shots . john : hey , you know what ? just corner vanessa in the bathroom and ask her what you want to know . téa : it 's complicated . john : yeah ? téa : hmm . john : what 'd she do to you ? téa : not a thing , but she did something to one of my clients . and as you know , i 'm passionate when it comes to defending my clients . john : hmm . téa : this is the part where you ask me if i 'm covering for todd , hmm ? was i lying when i claimed that i killed lee halpern in self - defense ? john : were you ? [ scene_break ] todd : i would n't worry about it . he 's not her type . blair : and you are ? todd : i 'm not seeing téa . blair : huh . yeah , that 's right -- yet . just wondering what she 's doing with my date . todd : did it ever occur to you not everything in the world is about you ? blair : oh , todd , thank you so much for that enlightenment . you know what i 'm going to do ? todd : what are you going to do ? blair : i 'm going to take your little lawyer friend there , i 'm going to back her up against a window and see if she falls out . todd : wait , wait a minute . i got a better idea . blair : and what would that be ? todd : want to dance ? [ blair chuckles ] blair : we could do the horizontal mambo right here on the dance floor , and pretty little marty saybrooke would n't notice because she 's all hooked up with that wes guy . todd : his name 's wes ? blair : his name 's wes , wesley granger . former navy seal . nice little hot body . todd : oh , he does have a nice body . blair : and let me tell you something . when i walked past their room , yep , from the sound of it , he 's tireless . [ blair chuckles ] [ scene_break ] marty : what ? wes : i 'm not going to fight with you . you 're forgiven . marty : i just got all wound up listening to roxy talk about john and me . wes : babe , you 're always wound up . marty : that 's true . i 'm sorry . wes : it 's cool . we 're friends , remember ? marty : right , and friends do n't let friends make asses of themselves . wes : not when they can help it . [ scene_break ] téa : are you working for antonio , trying to nail todd ? john : did he kill lee halpern ? téa : no . john : you know this for a fact ? téa : i killed lee halpern and it was in self - defense . john : you stabbed a woman in the heart with a kitchen knife with enough force to go through her sternum . you know , most people , that 'd set them back for a while , but here you are , apparently the life of the party . téa : i 'm not most people . [ scene_break ] stacy : right , i knew you had gotten knocked up because dad was just , like , beyond furious . gigi : he told me to get the hell out . he did n't even give me any time to figure out what to do or -- or pack or anything . mom came running out into the yard , and she gave me all the money in her purse , 40 bucks and that was it . stacy : so then you came back , and we were n't there . is that when you came here ? gigi : no , i -- i ended up in texas , and i got a job , and i started raising my kid . rex : who 's the best , by the way . stacy : yeah , he 's totally adorable . gigi : how would you know that ? you 've never even met him . [ scene_break ] dorian : i would never pressure my husband . bo : and how long have you and the buchanan heir been married , dorian ? dorian : soul mates do n't have a timeline . nora : so then why bother to make it legal now ? i mean , he 'd just become a buddhist . you had to sign over all of your things just to persuade him so -- well , unless of course you had a vested interest . dorian : of course i have a vested interest . i 'm his wife . i 'm very interested in making sure my husband 's interests are protected . and obviously , all of you were trying to hide the truth about his paternity from him so that you could steal his inheritance . clint : dorian , nobody stole anything . dorian : oh , really ? then why is he only finding out the news now ? viki : well , now , that 's a very good question , dorian . david : i have made a decision . [ scene_break ] marcie : michael , i am so sorry . i -- we really could 've stayed at that party . you know , i 'm really okay , it just threw me . i mean , her name threw me -- michael : i did n't bring you home because you were upset . marcie : not that i mind , but where did that come from ? michael : it 's good to know that i can still surprise you . marcie : mike -- what is it ? michael : for valentine 's day . marcie : michael , it 's beautiful . what kind of stone is that ? i 've never seen it before . michael : it 's yellow topaz . it 's hope 's birthstone . michael : i know that you and i -- we had different ideas about this baby . but i want you to know that i honor her , and i know how much you loved her . and i do n't want you to feel like you have to hide how you feel about her , because it 's a part of you . and i want to share that part of you . because i want to be close to you , marcie . i miss you . [ scene_break ] vanessa : what is that woman doing here ? cristian : téa ? vanessa : look , i know she 's your friend , but i do n't trust her . cristian : nobody does . she 's a lawyer . and she 's a little complicated . which is what i like about you . vanessa : that i 'm complicated ? cristian : that you 're not . except for a little drama with your ex - husband , everything 's been nice and even . [ scene_break ] téa : so , you do n't think todd killed lee halpern . and you do n't think i did . so who 's the culprit , john ? john : beats me . [ téa chuckles ] téa : well , obviously , you have a theory . john : hey , you know i left -- i left a job because the system does n't work . you do n't seem to have that problem . téa : everyone has a problem with the system , john . john : but you found a way to work it . téa : why would i want to do that ? marty : whoo ! excuse me .

[ scene_break ] clint : look , we need to get a plan in place , because if david decides to ditch the robes and lay claim to everything that we own , we 're going to have to move and we 're going to have to move fast . what ? viki : i find it remarkable . david is your brother . why did n't you tell me ? clint : why in god 's name would we tell you ? bo : easy , clint , come on . viki : oh , i do n't know , maybe for the children . he is their uncle now . clint : and your good friend . viki : all the more reason . clint : what , to tell you so you can tell him ? viki , do you not understand what 's going on here ? those children you just talked about ? your good friend david could take everything that they own . [ scene_break ] stacy : i was in your house . remember when i `` stole `` your dress ? you only have , like , eight million pictures of you and your son . rex : it 's true , gigi . [ gigi laughs ] stacy : could you stop questioning everything i say and just pretend like you 're actually happy to see me ? gigi : you 're right , i 'm sorry , i 'm sorry . it 's just , i have so many questions . like how are mom and dad ? i 'm sure the whole exotic dancer thing went over real big with them , huh ? oh , they must not know . stacy : no , no , they do n't -- they do n't know . gigi : i ca n't say that i blame you . i mean , after what happened with me , it 's pretty obvious that dad is pretty unforgiving and stubborn and -- stacy : he 's gone , gigi . they both are . gigi : what ? stacy : i 'm -- i 'm sorry . i -- i really thought you knew . he died . rex : gigi , wait .

[ scene_break ] david : this is amazing . i lost my brother spencer , but i have gained two new brothers -- and nora , an ex - sister - in - law , and natalie , a niece . natalie : yippee . david : but -- how can this be possible ? beaver : well , it seems that your mama , emma bradley , had two different liaisons with asa . one was before your brother was born and the second one was nine months before you were born . david : so that means spencer -- beaver : is ned truman 's child , but you are asa 's boy . david : asa 's boy . i am a buchanan . and i have a family . dorian : i 'm just curious , mr. calhoun . asa 's been dead for a year , and if as you say he told you himself that david was his son , why have you waited so long to come forward and why now , mr. calhoun ? beaver : well , i think i 'll let asa explain that . now , i believe this hotel has a conference room ? dorian : right down the hall . come on , darling . do n't you want answers ? come . viki : you knew . did n't you ? you all knew . this is unbelievable . david is your brother . he 's ben 's brother . he 's my brother - in - law . charlie : i know there 's a lot to take in , but if i were you , i 'd go see what that guy is up to . viki : who , david ? charlie : no , the lawyer . i mean , like dorian said , he has got a reason for being here and my guess is that reason is money . viki : of course it is -- the estate . charlie : yeah , and with joey and kevin in london -- viki : and clint , who was obviously very well aware of the situation and still unable to control it . thank you , darling . thank you , charlie . are n't you coming ? charlie : no , i really do n't want to intrude . viki : charlie , please . please , i need you . [ scene_break ] gigi : so guard : ma'am ? gigi : when did you get here ? guard : the woman behind the desk says you did n't pay . rex : oh , that 's -- that 's my fault . i -- i left a ticket out for her , but her sister got here first . it 's a -- it 's a misunderstanding . please tell the lady sorry and , well , this should cover the cost of the additional ticket . we good ? guard : enjoy your evening . gigi : thank you . rex : hey , it 's not every day you get to party with the sister you have n't seen in 10 years . i ca n't believe i did n't recognize you .

[ scene_break ] gigi : so start from the beginning , please . how did you find me ? stacy : i saw you guys in vegas . gigi : in vegas ? well , uh -- when ? i -- i did n't see you . rex : i do n't believe it -- you 're gigi . gigi : what ? rex : the stripper on the poster in the lobby . [ stacy chuckles ] rex : in the casino , that was stacy -- but with brown hair . stacy : it was a wig . gigi : you are not a stripper . stacy : an exotic dancer , and , yes , i was the best -- only i quit . gigi : okay , so you were stripping . and you were using my name . gigi : your stripper name is gigi . [ stacy chuckles ] rex : now , i thought your stripper name was the name of your first pet and the first street you lived on . gigi and stacy : cookie delancey . stacy : you know , i could n't do that one . you know , it 's a tough world , so i wanted to pick a name that made me feel safe -- my sister , gigi , and her big , beautiful brown hair . hey , i 've missed you . gigi : i missed you so much -- so much . oh , god , that 's why you 're so skinny and gorgeous -- because of all that dancing . we 'll talk about the exotic part later . please tell me you kept most of your clothes on . stacy : oh , please . i did n't meet the sucker that could afford these babies . rex : not exactly the answer you were looking for . stacy : relax , okay ? no one got a peek . gigi : right . so what happened , because i did n't see you . stacy : well -- okay . so i was on my way to my first show that day and i saw you guys , but i figured it could n't have been you -- what were the odds ? so i stood there for a while and i realized it was you . but then , i turned around and then you guys were out the door , so i took off after you , but i was in spikes and i got on my coat , ran out the door , and you guys were already off in a cab . so i hopped in a cab , followed you to the airport , and i lost you again . gigi : we went straight to the gate . stacy : and i had no idea where you guys were going to go , so i found this helpful ticket agent who helped me track you down . i guess it did n't hurt that i had my costume on underneath my raincoat . [ stacy chuckles ] stacy : so , i booked a ticket on the next plane , found out your address online , checked out your love nest , dress , ticket -- here i am . bottoms up . [ scene_break ] blair : oh , would you look at noelle ? she looks so happy -- having so much fun . oh , i think i 'm going to go get a drink . todd : excuse me . i think i ordered a double . this does n't look like even a single . blair : what 's going on , todd ? todd : you do n't care , huh ? blair : celebrating your freedom or is this just a new way to relieve stress ? todd : what stress ? blair : i do n't know . watching marty over there with that little -- todd : thank you . blair : rough piece of trade she picked up ? oh , thank you . what gets to you more -- john and me together or marty and her little boy toy ? todd : what about you , blair ? blair : hmm . todd : what gets under your skin ? the fact that john ca n't take his eyes off marty -- thank you -- or the fact that téa 's with me ?

[ scene_break ] blair : can you handle it ? you ca n't even [ scene_break ] téa : hola . oy , que linda que estas . how are the newlyweds , huh ?

[ scene_break ] talia : do n't you look lovely for a murder suspect . téa : oh . come on , talia . you and i both know that lee halpern was violent and dangerous . she came at me , gorgeous , the same way she came at you . luckily , i was tough enough to be able to disarm her and defend myself . someday , you 'll learn how to do that , too .

[ scene_break ] dorian : david , are you all right ? huh . this is quite a lot to take in . you have found your family and inherited a huge fortune . but it 's all good . you 're going to get the company , the house , all the assets -- everything is yours . natalie : you know , i am sure uncle david is extremely overwhelmed -- i know i am . i mean , you 've just become a buddhist , which is totally cool . but buddhists -- they are n't interested in money or corporations . you know , if grandpa were alive , i know he would be so proud of you . jared : yes , asa was a -- a generous man -- ahem . i 'm sure he knew he could count on you to do the right thing . dorian : all right , can we just stop this right here ? thank you very much . i really think it 's inappropriate to try and get david to divest of something he has n't even had the time to itemize . clint : no , he 's got you for that , does n't he ? dorian : yes , he most certainly does , because i am his wife . frankly , i think we should all be applauding david . he 's just been told that he 's inherited a huge fortune and he 's accepting it with grace and humility . so i think it 's really inappropriate for you to pressure him to give up something that you lost due to your own inadequacy . bo : and what are you pressuring him to do , dorian ? [ scene_break ] gigi : i ca n't believe you 're here . stacy : you 've said that . although , i 'm starting to get the feeling you 're not happy to see me . gigi : oh , no , no . i 'm thrilled to see you . are you kidding ? i 've missed you , like , so much . after i had the baby , i thought that i could finally come home , that once mom and dad saw shane , they 'd -- you know , they 'd forgive me . but when i came back to michigan , you guys -- guys were gone . you had moved and no one -- no one even tried to find me and let me know . it was the worst moment of my life . stacy : yeah , well , believe me , dad was no picnic to live with after you took off . gigi : i did n't take off . stacy , they threw me out on the street because i got pregnant .

[ scene_break ] todd : i would n't worry about it . he 's not her type . blair : and you are ? todd : i 'm not seeing téa . blair : huh . yeah , that 's right -- yet . just wondering what she 's doing with my date . todd : did it ever occur to you not everything in the world is about you ? blair : oh , todd , thank you so much for that enlightenment . you know what i 'm going to do ? todd : what are you going to do ? blair : i 'm going to take your little lawyer friend there , i 'm going to back her up against a window and see if she falls out . todd : wait , wait a minute . i got a better idea . blair : and what would that be ? todd : want to dance ? [ blair chuckles ] blair : we could do the horizontal mambo right here on the dance floor , and pretty little marty saybrooke would n't notice because she 's all hooked up with that wes guy . todd : his name 's wes ? blair : his name 's wes , wesley granger . former navy seal . nice little hot body . todd : oh , he does have a nice body . blair : and let me tell you something . when i walked past their room , yep , from the sound of it , he 's tireless . [ blair chuckles ] [ scene_break ] marty : what ? wes : i 'm not going to fight with you . you 're forgiven . marty : i just got all wound up listening to roxy talk about john and me . wes : babe , you 're always wound up . marty : that 's true . i 'm sorry . wes : it 's cool . we 're friends , remember ? marty : right , and friends do n't let friends make asses of themselves . wes : not when they can help it . [ scene_break ] téa : are you working for antonio , trying to nail todd ? john : did he kill lee halpern ? téa : no . john : you know this for a fact ? téa : i killed lee halpern and it was in self - defense . john : you stabbed a woman in the heart with a kitchen knife with enough force to go through her sternum . you know , most people , that 'd set them back for a while , but here you are , apparently the life of the party . téa : i 'm not most people . [ scene_break ] stacy : right , i knew you had gotten knocked up because dad was just , like , beyond furious . gigi : he told me to get the hell out . he did n't even give me any time to figure out what to do or -- or pack or anything . mom came running out into the yard , and she gave me all the money in her purse , 40 bucks and that was it . stacy : so then you came back , and we were n't there . is that when you came here ? gigi : no , i -- i ended up in texas , and i got a job , and i started raising my kid . rex : who 's the best , by the way . stacy : yeah , he 's totally adorable . gigi : how would you know that ? you 've never even met him . [ scene_break ] dorian : i would never pressure my husband . bo : and how long have you and the buchanan heir been married , dorian ? dorian : soul mates do n't have a timeline . nora : so then why bother to make it legal now ? i mean , he 'd just become a buddhist . you had to sign over all of your things just to persuade him so -- well , unless of course you had a vested interest . dorian : of course i have a vested interest . i 'm his wife . i 'm very interested in making sure my husband 's interests are protected . and obviously , all of you were trying to hide the truth about his paternity from him so that you could steal his inheritance . clint : dorian , nobody stole anything . dorian : oh , really ? then why is he only finding out the news now ? viki : well , now , that 's a very good question , dorian . david : i have made a decision . [ scene_break ] marcie : michael , i am so sorry . i -- we really could 've stayed at that party . you know , i 'm really okay , it just threw me . i mean , her name threw me -- michael : i did n't bring you home because you were upset . marcie : not that i mind , but where did that come from ? michael : it 's good to know that i can still surprise you . marcie : mike -- what is it ? michael : for valentine 's day . marcie : michael , it 's beautiful . what kind of stone is that ? i 've never seen it before . michael : it 's yellow topaz . it 's hope 's birthstone . michael : i know that you and i -- we had different ideas about this baby . but i want you to know that i honor her , and i know how much you loved her . and i do n't want you to feel like you have to hide how you feel about her , because it 's a part of you . and i want to share that part of you . because i want to be close to you , marcie . i miss you .

[ scene_break ] clint : look , we need to get a plan in place , because if david decides to ditch the robes and lay claim to everything that we own , we 're going to have to move and we 're going to have to move fast . what ? viki : i find it remarkable . david is your brother . why did n't you tell me ? clint : why in god 's name would we tell you ? bo : easy , clint , come on . viki : oh , i do n't know , maybe for the children . he is their uncle now . clint : and your good friend . viki : all the more reason . clint : what , to tell you so you can tell him ? viki , do you not understand what 's going on here ? those children you just talked about ? your good friend david could take everything that they own .

[ knock on door ] sharon : no ! whoever that is , they just need to go away . mariah : you ca n't hide from people . how is that gon na solve anything ? sharon : grace ? grace : sharon , hi . hope you do n't mind my stopping by . nick : mom ? you here ? nikki : darling ! i - i - i did n't hear from you . i was worried . thank god . nick : i know . i 'm sorry i did n't return any of your calls . nikki : no , i understand , after everything you 're going through , what sharon pulled . i can only imagine what it 's doing to you . nick : yeah , it 's been fun . nikki : just know that your father and i , if you need anything from us , you just name it . we are here for you . have you talked to him this morning ? nick : i got some message from him saying he wanted to have a family dinner . but honestly , some pity party while everyone sits around talking about what a disaster my life has become while dad pontificates at the head of the table is the last thing i want to do right now . michael : i 'm busy . so busy . kevin : i just wanted you to know that when i took fen to the concert last night , i did n't say anything about your situation . michael : you actually did something i asked . there 's a first time for everything . kevin : yeah , it was n't easy , but i kept my mouth shut . michael : i figured as much when fenmore did n't come charging home upset , asking a million questions . we actually had a very nice goodbye . i appreciate you doing the right thing and keeping quiet . kevin : no , the right thing is n't lying to the people who love you , who do n't know that you have cancer . michael : all right , we 're not gon na do this . you have to go . go . kevin : maybe you 're okay keeping the truth from everyone , but i 'm not . and if you 're not gon na tell your family , then i 'm going to . sage : [ yawns ] you 're awake . good . we have a visitor . constance : you gave us quite a scare yesterday with that fall you took . adam : is that so ? i 'm all right . it was nothing , really . constance : you have to take it easy , make sure your wounds heal properly . i thought i 'd lost you . and i - i thank god for saving you . adam : yeah . yeah , thank god for bringing me to you . billy : boys are still asleep . chelsea : thanks for checking . billy : what you up to ? chelsea : this . i pulled it out of the trash . billy : and now you 're looking for more hidden cameras ? chelsea : i 'm focused on this hidden camera in connor 's nursery . i mean , who would put it in there ? who would hook this up ? billy : i thought that we agreed that it was adam being overprotective and spying on the nannies . chelsea : that 's one theory , but we do n't know that for sure . then again , if it was n't adam ... [ doorbell rings ] victor : hi , sweetheart . billy : i think the answer to your question just arrived . victor : what the hell are you doing here ? michael : this is my life . this is my body . i get to decide what people know and when they know it . kevin : you may not know what you need , michael , but i do . michael : you listen to me very carefully . you are not saying anything to anyone . kevin : i 'm trying to help you ! how many times have you helped me , been there for me , helped me through a tough time in my life ? well , now it 's my turn . look , i get that you 're -- you 're probably in shock and that you 're scared , but this is not the kind of thing that you go through alone . you have a family , and this is the kind of thing that a family deals with together . michael : [ stammers ] we do n't even know the severity of the situation . please , let 's not ... let 's just not worry people unnecessarily . kevin : how severe does the situation have to get before it 's okay for people to worry ? how bad does it have to be before you 're willing to lean on the people who love you ? all right , you do n't want to tell fen yet , then i understand that . and -- and not telling mom actually makes a lot of sense . but lauren -- michael : listen . listen . i will handle this . i will . kevin : michael , i get that it is your life and you can do with it what you want . but she 's your wife . she loves you . and this is her life , also . nikki : if you 're worried that your father 's gon na try to make this dinner all about him ... nick : of course he will , mom . dad is just dying to say `` i told you so . `` thank you . nikki : well , i can understand why you think that . but i truly do n't think that 's the case this time . i think he really just wants to pull the family together and support you and summer . nick : well , i 'm sure that 's how he 's gon na sell it , but i highly doubt it plays out like that . look , i just do n't want to be around him right now . nikki : hey , i get it . i have been furious with him for months . i still do n't agree with his methods . nick : oh , you mean the way he manipulates everyone and lies to them while spouting this `` holier than thou `` attitude ? nikki : all of the above . but i can tell you this . the reason he kept pursuing the truth is not because he hates sharon . it 's because he loves you . nick : [ scoffs ] yeah . maybe . but it kills me that dad was right about sharon and i was wrong . grace : i was in chicago on business yesterday , so i , um , figured i 'd pop up and say hi before i m -- wow , uh ... you -- you must be mariah . i 'm -- i 'm grace . mariah : hi . grace : hi . uh , nick showed me a picture , but seeing you in person ... mariah : yeah , it 's incredible how much i look like cassie . grace : yeah , it is . mariah : yeah , i get that a lot . grace : i - i 've been meaning to talk to you ever since he spoke to me . it 's pretty obvious that he was wondering if mariah was cassie 's twin sister . sharon : she is . grace : [ chuckles ] and -- and you guys , uh , are just being reunited now after all this time . it 's -- it 's a miracle . sharon : mariah , this is the woman that i was telling you about , my best friend from madison who found cassie when she was little and brought her to nick and me . grace : yeah . hi . [ voice breaking ] i want you to know that if i 'd known there was another child , i would have -- i would have looked for you , too , and brought you back to your mother . i 'm so -- i 'm so sorry . mariah : that 's -- that 's okay . it 's fine . sharon : there 's no way that grace could have known . neither of us did . and i - i guess i have you to thank for helping nick put the pieces together . grace : cassie can never be replaced , but i - i hope that , uh , having mariah in your life has somehow filled that -- that hole in your heart . sharon : it 's meant more than i can say . constance : no one means more to me in this world . and we shall do whatever we must to make sure you get well . adam : i 'm so grateful . i do n't think i 'll ever be able to thank you enough . constance : no need to thank me . the truth is , my darling sage is the one that 's been taking such good care of you . now rest . i could use some myself . adam : okay . sage : shall i take you to your room , constance ? constance : i can manage . adam : sage . bring me my laptop . victor : i know nothing about this surveillance equipment . and i do n't appreciate being accused of spying on chelsea and on my grandson . billy : this is exactly the kind of thing that you would do , especially after adam cut you off from connor . this is your way of keeping tabs on things . victor : you 're not buying into this , are you ? chelsea : i do n't know what to think . victor : chelsea , you and i have worked very hard to gain each other 's trust , have n't we ? and you gave me permission to come here any day to visit connor . chelsea : i did , but -- victor : then why in the world would i plant surveillance equipment in your condo here ? but i will have my people find out who is responsible . billy : yeah , thanks , but we 'll handle it . victor : do you need my help for anything ? chelsea : i 'll -- i 'll let you know . i will . victor : okay . i 'd like a word with you alone . would you mind making yourself scarce ? billy : no , i 'm not going anywhere . i guess nobody bothered to break the news to you , so allow me . i live here now with chelsea and your grandson . victor : tell me this is n't so . michael : i meant what i said . i will tell lauren myself as soon as i know something definitive about my condition . kevin : when will that be ? michael : i have an appointment with an oncologist in a few days . kevin : in a few -- no ! that 's not all right ! you have a tumor or cells or whatever , so you call the oncologist , you get him to see you today right away ! michael : that 's not the way it works . we have to wait . kevin : that 's the most absurd thing i 've ever heard in my life ! you make a cancer patient wait to find out what stage they 're in ? no ! who is this guy ? what do you know about him ? michael : he comes highly recommended . kevin : well , he better be the best , because you need the best . what 's his name ? what is his name ? i 'm gon na do research . michael : stop . stop . please . i have to do this my way , step by step . kevin : okay . michael : okay . kevin : i just need you to be all right . lauren : hi , guys . i just dropped fen off at the airport , and i thought i 'd steal some time away with my husband , unless i 'm interrupting . kevin : no . michael : mnh . kevin : no , we 're good . in fact , i should get out of your very well - groomed hair . lauren : oh , well , thank you . michael : [ chuckles ] thank you . kevin : mm - hmm . i 'll see you . lauren : sweetie . victor : i 'm very disappointed to find out that you are willing to pick up where my daughter left off . chelsea : billy and i are very happy . anything you have to say to me you can say in front of him . victor : [ sighs ] i 've come to invite you and connor to a dinner party i 'll have in a few days . i want to spend some time with my grandchildren . chelsea : is this about nick and summer ? i was shocked when i heard . victor : i know . i would like you and , uh , connor to come by , okay ? i 've also extended the invitation to victoria and johnny . billy : and that 's up to her as to whether or not she wants to bring our son , but for what it 's worth , the idea of you circling the newman wagons so that you can celebrate jack 's loss does n't sit well with me . victor : and since when , son , do you think i give a damn whether something sits well with your or not ? billy : guess i 'm not invited then , huh ? victor : are you and connor coming ? chelsea : [ sighs ] nick : the only good thing that came out of this mess was finding out summer 's my daughter again , which i 'm thrilled about . but the damage that came from that realization , thanks to sharon ... nikki : how is summer handling it ? i have n't heard back from her , either . nick : she 's furious with sharon for using her , using jack . she played god with everyone 's lives . she put phyllis in the hospital . you know , summer has me and austin to lean on , which helps . nikki : how about noah and faith ? nick : noah 's hanging in there . faith -- we , of course , did n't tell her the whole story . but now she 's in agony . she called me a liar the other day because i promised her i was gon na marry her mother , and now i 'm not . nikki : that poor baby . she 's too young to understand , but she will come around . i promise you . if ever a little girl adored her daddy ... nick : i let her stay with sharon last night . nikki : oh , really ? you think that was wise ? nick : well , it 'll be the last time . i want my daughter with me from now on . nikki : i do n't blame you . nick : you know , part of me wants to do more than just go after custody . i mean , the way i feel right now , i want to cut sharon out of my life forever . sharon : can i get you something ? coffee ? grace : oh , uh , oh , no . i 'm fine . thanks . mariah : well , i 'm gon na take off . it 's obvious you guys have some catching up to do . grace : okay , uh , it 's really nice meeting you , mariah . mariah : yeah . you , too . bye . grace : well , i 'm -- i 'm sorry . i , uh , i did n't mean to scare her away like that . sharon : no , mariah is still getting used to everything . and besides , it 's better off you and i talk privately . grace : you seem really tense . i was really hoping that this would be a pleasant surprise . sharon : it 's a shock . why now ? grace : i told you . i was in chicago . sharon : no , that 's not what i mean and you know it . it 's been months since you saw nick or spoke to him . if you had wanted to check in , you could have phoned . you could have sent me an e - mail . but instead , you show up on my doorstep without warning after being away for 10 years . why ? what are you really doing here , grace ? grace : sharon , i - i really do n't have an agenda here . sharon : then why the ambush ? grace : that 's a little bit hostile . sharon : given our history , i 'm the soul of politeness . grace : fine . i thought about writing or calling many times . sharon : so , why did n't you ? grace : a child that you did n't know about , cassie 's identical twin sister ? it 's not exactly the kind of thing you shoot somebody an e - mail about . so when i realized i was just a couple hours away , i [ sighs ] could n't pass up the opportunity to come see you . sharon : is that all ? grace : okay , i wo n't lie . i was hoping to get the opportunity to ... to meet mariah . i mean , it 's pretty , uh , indescribable , i 'd say , seeing that -- that face again . our friendship was lost , sharon . it 's mostly due to my actions . sharon : mostly ? grace : [ sighs ] but , you know , we always had one thing in common . our love for cassie . her death was ... sorry . it 's just such a tragedy . i just -- it made me so ill . and then when i heard about what it did to you and nick and how it just tore your whole family apart ... [ sighs ] but everything 's come full circle . i mean , right ? you have mariah now , and you and nick are back together and happy . sharon , what ... what is it ? sharon : nothing . nothing that i want to talk about with you . grace : has something happened with nick ? sharon : it 's really none of your business . grace : okay , you know what ? you are really freaking me out here . if you do n't tell me , i 'm gon na call nick and ask him . what 's wrong ? sharon : everything ! nick left me . nick : i could kill sharon right now . phyllis , too . i mean , she could n't have handled this situation any worse . the scene at the ballroom in the stairwell was obnoxious . nikki : it sounds like phyllis . nick : but i have to remain civil , you know , because summer is still so upset . but if you could tell me right now that i would never have to see another one of those women ever again , i swear to you i would jump up and cheer . nikki : nicholas , stop it now . you 're scaring me . i know you took things hard when avery ended things , but -- nick : mom , avery was in love with dylan , and she always was . she knew if we got married , it would be a disaster . but you ca n't compare that with what sharon did . avery never gave away one of my kids because of her own pathological insecurities . but you do n't have to worry about me , mom , all right ? i 'm not gon na do anything reckless , i promise . nikki : i just do n't want you to do anything you 'll regret . nick : i regret every single minute that i spent with sharon thinking that we could build something real . i mean , what the hell was i thinking ? nikki : try to relax , all right ? i know you 're hurt . i know you 're disillusioned . but you ca n't let your anger run away with you like this . you 've got to take ahold of the situation and control it . do n't let it control you . chelsea : thank you for the invitation , victor , but i think we all know the person you really want there is connor , not me . no one in your family would be happy to have me there . they all hated adam , and since he died , no one has been particularly warm or friendly to me . not to mention it would make victoria very uncomfortable , so i just -- i just think the answer 's no . victor : well , i hate to hear that . i would love you to be there with connor . chelsea : i appreciate that , but the answer 's still no . victor : all right . chelsea : you know that you can always come and see your grandson here as long as you respect the fact that billy 's a part of our lives now and he lives with us . victor : all right . billy : [ scoffs ] you expect us to believe that ? that you are capable of respect ? victor : you know , billy boy , not very concerned about you . you 'll screw up in no time at all . i know you too well . and then she 'll kick you out of here .

[ sighs ] sage ! sage ! sage : yes ? what 's the matter ? are you in pain ? adam : there 's something wrong with this computer . i 'm trying to access the feed to connor 's nursery . all i 'm getting is this black screen . what 's wrong with this thing ? sage : huh . well , it 's not the laptop . it 's not the issue . something must be wrong with the camera . [ computer keys clack ] adam : or someone realized it was there . lauren : it was so wonderful to see fen , even though it was such a quick visit . michael : once they get to college , you 're lucky to get that . lauren : i know . but i miss him already . so , i thought maybe i could get my husband to distract me from my extremely empty nest . michael : hmm . lauren : mm - hmm . michael : that sounds very appealing , but i am snowed under . so busy . lauren : honey . you do not need to be embarrassed by needing something to help you get going . i mean , i wish you would have been honest with me , that i did n't have to figure it out myself . michael : some things are more difficult to share , even with you . lauren : i know it 's also a matter of pride , but you realize it only made things worse . you know , i had all these doubts in my mind and that you were all stressed . it was not good . michael : i do so hate to disappoint you . lauren : sweetie , it 's not about the sex . it was about the wall that was being created between us and the fact that you were n't as intimate . do n't you know that we can talk about anything ? we can face anything . i love you . no matter what . michael : [ scoffs ] i never questioned your love for me . lauren : then what ? what is it ? tell me . mariah : hey , big shot . oh , my god . what a morning . i thought things could n't get crazier or more awkward with sharon , but get this -- they did . this old friend of hers showed up , and it was really awkward and weird and -- kevin : i do n't want to hear it . mariah : what ? kevin : look , you 're not the only person with bad crap going on in your life . sharon : so while i was sick , i did something terrible . and then i kept it a secret , and now suddenly , everything 's blown up right when nick and i were about to get married . grace : i am so sorry . here . sharon : thanks . i can imagine what you must be thinking . grace : uh , you kidding ? after the stunts i 've pulled , who am i to judge ? there 's just one thing i ca n't get over . sharon : only one ? grace : i did n't think there was anything that could get nick to walk out on you again . sharon : what is that supposed to mean ? grace : just what i said . i thought he was yours , now and forever . sharon : damn you , grace . you know , you never change . you pretend to feel bad for me , but all you 're really thinking is nick is single now . you would hit on him in a hot second , would n't you ? grace : that 's exactly what i did when he flew me here to talk to me . sharon : get the hell out . nick : thinks have happened in the past where i 've let my anger get the best of me , but that is not gon na be the case going forward . nikki : no ? nick : no , for one thing , i do n't want to make things harder on my kids . and another , i can see how worried you are , so i do n't want to pile on a bunch of new stress . nikki : well , thank you , son . i appreciate you taking my words to heart . nick : i will handle things where sharon is concerned . i 'm gon na keep my cool , do it rationally , which does n't make you any less concerned , i can see . nikki : it goes with the territory . nick : you 're a great mom . actually , you 're the best mom . do you know why ? because even when you 're struggling with your own issues , you always make us kids feel like we come first . nikki : because you do . [ door opens , closes ] victor : well , look who 's here . glad you came by . nick : why ? you have more good news for me ? chelsea : hey . billy , i hope you realize nothing victor said is gon na -- billy : hey , i know . in fact , the way that you turned him down pretty much said it all . chelsea : i mean , i 'm not gon na let the man dictate my life , but it 's important to me that we keep things civil for connor 's sake . billy : and i 'll do my best , but i have my limits . i was not about to turn this over to him . chelsea : you do n't really think that victor 's behind that still , do you ? billy : when we 're talking about surveillance gear in a little kid 's bedroom , everybody is guilty until proven innocent . chelsea : oh , trust me , i 'm with you . i 'm not gon na be able to rest for one second until i figure out who planted that camera in connor 's nursery . billy : then let 's get some answers . sage : we do n't know if he found the camera . it could just be a glitch . adam : no . no , it 's not a glitch . sage : all right , you know what ? i 'm gon na have your man go back to the apartment and see if he can get things back online . adam : no . no ! i am sick and tired of sitting here watching my wife and my son over some damn computer screen while billy abbott takes over my entire family . i 'm not gon na sit here and let that happen . michael : you have to know that the last thing i wanted to do was to make you feel insecure because i was n't able to face the truth about something that was wrong with me . lauren : nothing is wrong with you . what you 're experiencing is something very normal for a man your age , you know ? and it 's easily managed . michael : sometimes a little pill does n't fix everything , you know ? what if i had n't been able to be a real husband to you anymore ? lauren : you will always be my husband . and there are many different ways to make love . and i plan on showing them to you the rest of our lives . mariah : peace offering . look , i know i have a bad habit of launching into my own stuff and it can come off as self - centered , but to be fair , you usually do n't have a huge stick up your -- kevin : is this your version of an apology ? mariah : just eat the brownie and tell me what 's wrong . kevin : i ca n't . mariah : fine . kevin : i would if i could . it 's ... it 's not my story to tell . mariah : well , whatever it is , it 's really tearing you up . kevin : yeah , and there 's nothing i can do about it . mariah : look , kevin , i do n't do this friend thing very well . i never had a bestie growing up . and pretty much everybody in my life has screwed me over . but what i 'm trying to say is that if you need a friend ... i can try to be that for you . keyword -- try . kevin : got it . grace : okay , sharon , stop . you -- you need to calm down and let me finish . yes , i hit on nick . because i jumped to certain conclusions after he called me out of the blue like that . but he did n't give me a second glance . and believe me , i gave him plenty to look at . the only thing that mattered to him was you and trying to figure out who mariah really was . sharon : i 'll bet that was a crushing disappointment for you . grace : okay , i 'm trying to make you feel better here . sharon : you just could n't resist twisting the knife any more than you can resist throwing your body in front of any man that happens to cross your path . old habits and all . grace : well , i - i have done nothing wrong here . so do n't attack me when you 're the one who screwed up your own life again . so tell me , sharon . what did you do ? what did it take to push a guy who loved you that much , the father of your children , past the breaking point ? sharon : nick and i will survive this , just like we 've survived everything else , because we share the kind of love that someone like you ca n't understand . grace : if that 's what you want to believe . sharon : no , that 's what i know . grace : okay . i have to go or else i 'm gon na miss my flight . ca n't wait to see how this all turns out . victor : i have nothing to report . nick : so you do n't expect me to thank you for what you did the other night ? victor : son , i do n't expect you to thank me for anything . nick : you here to gloat ? victor : i 'm here because this is my house . not here to gloat . but while you 're here , i could tell you something . nick : i do n't think i want to hear it . nikki : hear him out . just hear him out . victor : had i known what i know now ... i would have told you . could have saved you and our family a lot of anguish . nick : why ? you were driven by your hatred of sharon . victor : son , i wanted to tell you to not make the same mistake twice . yet you went right ahead undeterred to pursue happiness with a woman who has brought so much unhappiness to this family . she burned down this damn place ! do i need to remind you ? you 're questioning my motives ? why do n't you look at yourself and explain to yourself why you made the choices you made ? how 's that ? nick : i got to go . victor : yeah .

[ knock on door ] sharon : no ! whoever that is , they just need to go away . mariah : you ca n't hide from people . how is that gon na solve anything ? sharon : grace ? grace : sharon , hi . hope you do n't mind my stopping by . nick : mom ? you here ? nikki : darling ! i - i - i did n't hear from you . i was worried . thank god . nick : i know . i 'm sorry i did n't return any of your calls . nikki : no , i understand , after everything you 're going through , what sharon pulled . i can only imagine what it 's doing to you . nick : yeah , it 's been fun . nikki : just know that your father and i , if you need anything from us , you just name it . we are here for you . have you talked to him this morning ? nick : i got some message from him saying he wanted to have a family dinner . but honestly , some pity party while everyone sits around talking about what a disaster my life has become while dad pontificates at the head of the table is the last thing i want to do right now . michael : i 'm busy . so busy . kevin : i just wanted you to know that when i took fen to the concert last night , i did n't say anything about your situation . michael : you actually did something i asked . there 's a first time for everything . kevin : yeah , it was n't easy , but i kept my mouth shut . michael : i figured as much when fenmore did n't come charging home upset , asking a million questions . we actually had a very nice goodbye . i appreciate you doing the right thing and keeping quiet . kevin : no , the right thing is n't lying to the people who love you , who do n't know that you have cancer . michael : all right , we 're not gon na do this . you have to go . go . kevin : maybe you 're okay keeping the truth from everyone , but i 'm not . and if you 're not gon na tell your family , then i 'm going to . sage : [ yawns ] you 're awake . good . we have a visitor . constance : you gave us quite a scare yesterday with that fall you took . adam : is that so ? i 'm all right . it was nothing , really . constance : you have to take it easy , make sure your wounds heal properly . i thought i 'd lost you . and i - i thank god for saving you . adam : yeah . yeah , thank god for bringing me to you . billy : boys are still asleep . chelsea : thanks for checking . billy : what you up to ? chelsea : this . i pulled it out of the trash . billy : and now you 're looking for more hidden cameras ? chelsea : i 'm focused on this hidden camera in connor 's nursery . i mean , who would put it in there ? who would hook this up ? billy : i thought that we agreed that it was adam being overprotective and spying on the nannies . chelsea : that 's one theory , but we do n't know that for sure . then again , if it was n't adam ... [ doorbell rings ] victor : hi , sweetheart . billy : i think the answer to your question just arrived . victor : what the hell are you doing here ? michael : this is my life . this is my body . i get to decide what people know and when they know it . kevin : you may not know what you need , michael , but i do . michael : you listen to me very carefully . you are not saying anything to anyone . kevin : i 'm trying to help you ! how many times have you helped me , been there for me , helped me through a tough time in my life ? well , now it 's my turn . look , i get that you 're -- you 're probably in shock and that you 're scared , but this is not the kind of thing that you go through alone . you have a family , and this is the kind of thing that a family deals with together . michael : [ stammers ] we do n't even know the severity of the situation . please , let 's not ... let 's just not worry people unnecessarily . kevin : how severe does the situation have to get before it 's okay for people to worry ? how bad does it have to be before you 're willing to lean on the people who love you ? all right , you do n't want to tell fen yet , then i understand that . and -- and not telling mom actually makes a lot of sense . but lauren -- michael : listen . listen . i will handle this . i will . kevin : michael , i get that it is your life and you can do with it what you want . but she 's your wife . she loves you . and this is her life , also . nikki : if you 're worried that your father 's gon na try to make this dinner all about him ... nick : of course he will , mom . dad is just dying to say `` i told you so . `` thank you . nikki : well , i can understand why you think that . but i truly do n't think that 's the case this time . i think he really just wants to pull the family together and support you and summer . nick : well , i 'm sure that 's how he 's gon na sell it , but i highly doubt it plays out like that . look , i just do n't want to be around him right now . nikki : hey , i get it . i have been furious with him for months . i still do n't agree with his methods . nick : oh , you mean the way he manipulates everyone and lies to them while spouting this `` holier than thou `` attitude ? nikki : all of the above . but i can tell you this . the reason he kept pursuing the truth is not because he hates sharon . it 's because he loves you . nick : [ scoffs ] yeah . maybe . but it kills me that dad was right about sharon and i was wrong . grace : i was in chicago on business yesterday , so i , um , figured i 'd pop up and say hi before i m -- wow , uh ... you -- you must be mariah . i 'm -- i 'm grace . mariah : hi . grace : hi . uh , nick showed me a picture , but seeing you in person ... mariah : yeah , it 's incredible how much i look like cassie . grace : yeah , it is . mariah : yeah , i get that a lot . grace : i - i 've been meaning to talk to you ever since he spoke to me . it 's pretty obvious that he was wondering if mariah was cassie 's twin sister . sharon : she is . grace : [ chuckles ] and -- and you guys , uh , are just being reunited now after all this time . it 's -- it 's a miracle . sharon : mariah , this is the woman that i was telling you about , my best friend from madison who found cassie when she was little and brought her to nick and me . grace : yeah . hi . [ voice breaking ] i want you to know that if i 'd known there was another child , i would have -- i would have looked for you , too , and brought you back to your mother . i 'm so -- i 'm so sorry . mariah : that 's -- that 's okay . it 's fine . sharon : there 's no way that grace could have known . neither of us did . and i - i guess i have you to thank for helping nick put the pieces together . grace : cassie can never be replaced , but i - i hope that , uh , having mariah in your life has somehow filled that -- that hole in your heart . sharon : it 's meant more than i can say . constance : no one means more to me in this world . and we shall do whatever we must to make sure you get well . adam : i 'm so grateful . i do n't think i 'll ever be able to thank you enough . constance : no need to thank me . the truth is , my darling sage is the one that 's been taking such good care of you . now rest . i could use some myself . adam : okay . sage : shall i take you to your room , constance ? constance : i can manage . adam : sage . bring me my laptop . victor : i know nothing about this surveillance equipment . and i do n't appreciate being accused of spying on chelsea and on my grandson . billy : this is exactly the kind of thing that you would do , especially after adam cut you off from connor . this is your way of keeping tabs on things . victor : you 're not buying into this , are you ? chelsea : i do n't know what to think . victor : chelsea , you and i have worked very hard to gain each other 's trust , have n't we ? and you gave me permission to come here any day to visit connor . chelsea : i did , but -- victor : then why in the world would i plant surveillance equipment in your condo here ? but i will have my people find out who is responsible . billy : yeah , thanks , but we 'll handle it . victor : do you need my help for anything ? chelsea : i 'll -- i 'll let you know . i will . victor : okay . i 'd like a word with you alone . would you mind making yourself scarce ? billy : no , i 'm not going anywhere . i guess nobody bothered to break the news to you , so allow me . i live here now with chelsea and your grandson . victor : tell me this is n't so . michael : i meant what i said . i will tell lauren myself as soon as i know something definitive about my condition . kevin : when will that be ? michael : i have an appointment with an oncologist in a few days . kevin : in a few -- no ! that 's not all right ! you have a tumor or cells or whatever , so you call the oncologist , you get him to see you today right away ! michael : that 's not the way it works . we have to wait . kevin : that 's the most absurd thing i 've ever heard in my life ! you make a cancer patient wait to find out what stage they 're in ? no ! who is this guy ? what do you know about him ? michael : he comes highly recommended . kevin : well , he better be the best , because you need the best . what 's his name ? what is his name ? i 'm gon na do research . michael : stop . stop . please . i have to do this my way , step by step . kevin : okay . michael : okay . kevin : i just need you to be all right . lauren : hi , guys . i just dropped fen off at the airport , and i thought i 'd steal some time away with my husband , unless i 'm interrupting . kevin : no . michael : mnh . kevin : no , we 're good . in fact , i should get out of your very well - groomed hair . lauren : oh , well , thank you . michael : [ chuckles ] thank you . kevin : mm - hmm . i 'll see you . lauren : sweetie . victor : i 'm very disappointed to find out that you are willing to pick up where my daughter left off . chelsea : billy and i are very happy . anything you have to say to me you can say in front of him . victor : [ sighs ] i 've come to invite you and connor to a dinner party i 'll have in a few days . i want to spend some time with my grandchildren . chelsea : is this about nick and summer ? i was shocked when i heard . victor : i know . i would like you and , uh , connor to come by , okay ? i 've also extended the invitation to victoria and johnny . billy : and that 's up to her as to whether or not she wants to bring our son , but for what it 's worth , the idea of you circling the newman wagons so that you can celebrate jack 's loss does n't sit well with me . victor : and since when , son , do you think i give a damn whether something sits well with your or not ? billy : guess i 'm not invited then , huh ? victor : are you and connor coming ? chelsea : [ sighs ] nick : the only good thing that came out of this mess was finding out summer 's my daughter again , which i 'm thrilled about . but the damage that came from that realization , thanks to sharon ... nikki : how is summer handling it ? i have n't heard back from her , either . nick : she 's furious with sharon for using her , using jack . she played god with everyone 's lives . she put phyllis in the hospital . you know , summer has me and austin to lean on , which helps . nikki : how about noah and faith ? nick : noah 's hanging in there . faith -- we , of course , did n't tell her the whole story . but now she 's in agony . she called me a liar the other day because i promised her i was gon na marry her mother , and now i 'm not . nikki : that poor baby . she 's too young to understand , but she will come around . i promise you . if ever a little girl adored her daddy ... nick : i let her stay with sharon last night . nikki : oh , really ? you think that was wise ? nick : well , it 'll be the last time . i want my daughter with me from now on . nikki : i do n't blame you . nick : you know , part of me wants to do more than just go after custody . i mean , the way i feel right now , i want to cut sharon out of my life forever . sharon : can i get you something ? coffee ? grace : oh , uh , oh , no . i 'm fine . thanks . mariah : well , i 'm gon na take off . it 's obvious you guys have some catching up to do . grace : okay , uh , it 's really nice meeting you , mariah . mariah : yeah . you , too . bye . grace : well , i 'm -- i 'm sorry . i , uh , i did n't mean to scare her away like that . sharon : no , mariah is still getting used to everything . and besides , it 's better off you and i talk privately . grace : you seem really tense . i was really hoping that this would be a pleasant surprise . sharon : it 's a shock . why now ? grace : i told you . i was in chicago . sharon : no , that 's not what i mean and you know it . it 's been months since you saw nick or spoke to him . if you had wanted to check in , you could have phoned . you could have sent me an e - mail . but instead , you show up on my doorstep without warning after being away for 10 years . why ? what are you really doing here , grace ? grace : sharon , i - i really do n't have an agenda here . sharon : then why the ambush ? grace : that 's a little bit hostile . sharon : given our history , i 'm the soul of politeness . grace : fine . i thought about writing or calling many times . sharon : so , why did n't you ? grace : a child that you did n't know about , cassie 's identical twin sister ? it 's not exactly the kind of thing you shoot somebody an e - mail about . so when i realized i was just a couple hours away , i [ sighs ] could n't pass up the opportunity to come see you . sharon : is that all ? grace : okay , i wo n't lie . i was hoping to get the opportunity to ... to meet mariah . i mean , it 's pretty , uh , indescribable , i 'd say , seeing that -- that face again . our friendship was lost , sharon . it 's mostly due to my actions . sharon : mostly ? grace : [ sighs ] but , you know , we always had one thing in common . our love for cassie . her death was ... sorry . it 's just such a tragedy . i just -- it made me so ill . and then when i heard about what it did to you and nick and how it just tore your whole family apart ... [ sighs ] but everything 's come full circle . i mean , right ? you have mariah now , and you and nick are back together and happy . sharon , what ... what is it ? sharon : nothing . nothing that i want to talk about with you . grace : has something happened with nick ? sharon : it 's really none of your business . grace : okay , you know what ? you are really freaking me out here . if you do n't tell me , i 'm gon na call nick and ask him . what 's wrong ? sharon : everything ! nick left me . nick : i could kill sharon right now . phyllis , too . i mean , she could n't have handled this situation any worse . the scene at the ballroom in the stairwell was obnoxious . nikki : it sounds like phyllis . nick : but i have to remain civil , you know , because summer is still so upset . but if you could tell me right now that i would never have to see another one of those women ever again , i swear to you i would jump up and cheer . nikki : nicholas , stop it now . you 're scaring me . i know you took things hard when avery ended things , but -- nick : mom , avery was in love with dylan , and she always was . she knew if we got married , it would be a disaster . but you ca n't compare that with what sharon did . avery never gave away one of my kids because of her own pathological insecurities . but you do n't have to worry about me , mom , all right ? i 'm not gon na do anything reckless , i promise . nikki : i just do n't want you to do anything you 'll regret . nick : i regret every single minute that i spent with sharon thinking that we could build something real . i mean , what the hell was i thinking ? nikki : try to relax , all right ? i know you 're hurt . i know you 're disillusioned . but you ca n't let your anger run away with you like this . you 've got to take ahold of the situation and control it . do n't let it control you . chelsea : thank you for the invitation , victor , but i think we all know the person you really want there is connor , not me . no one in your family would be happy to have me there . they all hated adam , and since he died , no one has been particularly warm or friendly to me . not to mention it would make victoria very uncomfortable , so i just -- i just think the answer 's no . victor : well , i hate to hear that . i would love you to be there with connor . chelsea : i appreciate that , but the answer 's still no . victor : all right . chelsea : you know that you can always come and see your grandson here as long as you respect the fact that billy 's a part of our lives now and he lives with us . victor : all right . billy : [ scoffs ] you expect us to believe that ? that you are capable of respect ? victor : you know , billy boy , not very concerned about you . you 'll screw up in no time at all . i know you too well . and then she 'll kick you out of here . [ door opens ] [ door closes ] chelsea : [ sighs ] adam : come on . [ computer keys clacking ] adam : come on . you 're taking the password . what is the problem ? [ sighs ] sage ! sage ! sage : yes ? what 's the matter ? are you in pain ? adam : there 's something wrong with this computer . i 'm trying to access the feed to connor 's nursery . all i 'm getting is this black screen . what 's wrong with this thing ? sage : huh . well , it 's not the laptop . it 's not the issue . something must be wrong with the camera . [ computer keys clack ] adam : or someone realized it was there . lauren : it was so wonderful to see fen , even though it was such a quick visit . michael : once they get to college , you 're lucky to get that . lauren : i know . but i miss him already . so , i thought maybe i could get my husband to distract me from my extremely empty nest . michael : hmm . lauren : mm - hmm . michael : that sounds very appealing , but i am snowed under . so busy . lauren : honey . you do not need to be embarrassed by needing something to help you get going . i mean , i wish you would have been honest with me , that i did n't have to figure it out myself . michael : some things are more difficult to share , even with you . lauren : i know it 's also a matter of pride , but you realize it only made things worse . you know , i had all these doubts in my mind and that you were all stressed . it was not good . michael : i do so hate to disappoint you . lauren : sweetie , it 's not about the sex . it was about the wall that was being created between us and the fact that you were n't as intimate . do n't you know that we can talk about anything ? we can face anything . i love you . no matter what . michael : [ scoffs ] i never questioned your love for me . lauren : then what ? what is it ? tell me . mariah : hey , big shot . oh , my god . what a morning . i thought things could n't get crazier or more awkward with sharon , but get this -- they did . this old friend of hers showed up , and it was really awkward and weird and -- kevin : i do n't want to hear it . mariah : what ? kevin : look , you 're not the only person with bad crap going on in your life . sharon : so while i was sick , i did something terrible . and then i kept it a secret , and now suddenly , everything 's blown up right when nick and i were about to get married . grace : i am so sorry . here . sharon : thanks . i can imagine what you must be thinking . grace : uh , you kidding ? after the stunts i 've pulled , who am i to judge ? there 's just one thing i ca n't get over . sharon : only one ? grace : i did n't think there was anything that could get nick to walk out on you again . sharon : what is that supposed to mean ? grace : just what i said . i thought he was yours , now and forever . sharon : damn you , grace . you know , you never change . you pretend to feel bad for me , but all you 're really thinking is nick is single now . you would hit on him in a hot second , would n't you ? grace : that 's exactly what i did when he flew me here to talk to me . sharon : get the hell out . nick : thinks have happened in the past where i 've let my anger get the best of me , but that is not gon na be the case going forward . nikki : no ? nick : no , for one thing , i do n't want to make things harder on my kids . and another , i can see how worried you are , so i do n't want to pile on a bunch of new stress . nikki : well , thank you , son . i appreciate you taking my words to heart . nick : i will handle things where sharon is concerned . i 'm gon na keep my cool , do it rationally , which does n't make you any less concerned , i can see . nikki : it goes with the territory . nick : you 're a great mom . actually , you 're the best mom . do you know why ? because even when you 're struggling with your own issues , you always make us kids feel like we come first . nikki : because you do . [ door opens , closes ] victor : well , look who 's here . glad you came by . nick : why ? you have more good news for me ? chelsea : hey . billy , i hope you realize nothing victor said is gon na -- billy : hey , i know . in fact , the way that you turned him down pretty much said it all . chelsea : i mean , i 'm not gon na let the man dictate my life , but it 's important to me that we keep things civil for connor 's sake . billy : and i 'll do my best , but i have my limits . i was not about to turn this over to him . chelsea : you do n't really think that victor 's behind that still , do you ? billy : when we 're talking about surveillance gear in a little kid 's bedroom , everybody is guilty until proven innocent . chelsea : oh , trust me , i 'm with you . i 'm not gon na be able to rest for one second until i figure out who planted that camera in connor 's nursery . billy : then let 's get some answers . sage : we do n't know if he found the camera . it could just be a glitch . adam : no . no , it 's not a glitch . sage : all right , you know what ? i 'm gon na have your man go back to the apartment and see if he can get things back online . adam : no . no ! i am sick and tired of sitting here watching my wife and my son over some damn computer screen while billy abbott takes over my entire family . i 'm not gon na sit here and let that happen . michael : you have to know that the last thing i wanted to do was to make you feel insecure because i was n't able to face the truth about something that was wrong with me . lauren : nothing is wrong with you . what you 're experiencing is something very normal for a man your age , you know ? and it 's easily managed . michael : sometimes a little pill does n't fix everything , you know ? what if i had n't been able to be a real husband to you anymore ? lauren : you will always be my husband . and there are many different ways to make love . and i plan on showing them to you the rest of our lives . mariah : peace offering . look , i know i have a bad habit of launching into my own stuff and it can come off as self - centered , but to be fair , you usually do n't have a huge stick up your -- kevin : is this your version of an apology ? mariah : just eat the brownie and tell me what 's wrong . kevin : i ca n't . mariah : fine . kevin : i would if i could . it 's ... it 's not my story to tell . mariah : well , whatever it is , it 's really tearing you up . kevin : yeah , and there 's nothing i can do about it . mariah : look , kevin , i do n't do this friend thing very well . i never had a bestie growing up . and pretty much everybody in my life has screwed me over . but what i 'm trying to say is that if you need a friend ... i can try to be that for you . keyword -- try . kevin : got it . grace : okay , sharon , stop . you -- you need to calm down and let me finish . yes , i hit on nick . because i jumped to certain conclusions after he called me out of the blue like that . but he did n't give me a second glance . and believe me , i gave him plenty to look at . the only thing that mattered to him was you and trying to figure out who mariah really was . sharon : i 'll bet that was a crushing disappointment for you . grace : okay , i 'm trying to make you feel better here . sharon : you just could n't resist twisting the knife any more than you can resist throwing your body in front of any man that happens to cross your path . old habits and all . grace : well , i - i have done nothing wrong here . so do n't attack me when you 're the one who screwed up your own life again . so tell me , sharon . what did you do ? what did it take to push a guy who loved you that much , the father of your children , past the breaking point ? sharon : nick and i will survive this , just like we 've survived everything else , because we share the kind of love that someone like you ca n't understand . grace : if that 's what you want to believe . sharon : no , that 's what i know . grace : okay . i have to go or else i 'm gon na miss my flight . ca n't wait to see how this all turns out . victor : i have nothing to report . nick : so you do n't expect me to thank you for what you did the other night ? victor : son , i do n't expect you to thank me for anything . nick : you here to gloat ? victor : i 'm here because this is my house . not here to gloat . but while you 're here , i could tell you something . nick : i do n't think i want to hear it . nikki : hear him out . just hear him out . victor : had i known what i know now ... i would have told you . could have saved you and our family a lot of anguish . nick : why ? you were driven by your hatred of sharon . victor : son , i wanted to tell you to not make the same mistake twice . yet you went right ahead undeterred to pursue happiness with a woman who has brought so much unhappiness to this family . she burned down this damn place ! do i need to remind you ? you 're questioning my motives ? why do n't you look at yourself and explain to yourself why you made the choices you made ? how 's that ? nick : i got to go . victor : yeah . [ door closes ] victor : now you 're looking at me ? i think it 's a good thing . it 's the only way he will learn . nikki : let him think about it . victor : the more distance he can put between himself and sharon , the better off he 'll be . nikki : i just wonder if this really is it for them once and for all . victor : why are you even asking that question ? you do n't think he 'll forgive her , start all over again with her ? nikki : not at this moment , no . he is beyond devastated . but sharon is the love of his life . you and i both know how hard it is to walk away from that forever . lauren : i 'm gon na go . if you ca n't come home with me , i guess i should get some work done , right ? [ chuckles ] bye . love you . michael : lauren , wait . forget work . none of it matters compared to you . i 'm gon na take you home and show you just how much i love you . [ knock on door ] sharon : nick , i 'm glad you 're here . i hope this means that you 're ready to talk like we need to . nick : i did n't come here to chat . i have no interest in hearing you defend yourself or try and convince me to come back . i just came to tell you , you 're gon na be hearing from avery . i 'm gon na fight for full custody of faith . and i wo n't stop fighting until i 've won . chelsea : you got all that ? billy : hit me with the last three digits again . chelsea : 8 - 7 - 3 . do you need a serial number , too ? billy : no , model number ought to do it . here we go . chelsea : wh -- what ? what is it ? billy : this model did n't go on the market until may of this year . chelsea : which means someone started spying on connor and me after adam died . adam : i am so sick of living like a ghost . it 's time for me to go home . sage : please stop . you 're gon na hurt yourself again . i do n't want you to stand up ! let 's -- we can talk about this and handle this later ! please sit down ! constance : i heard raised voices ! is everything all right ? wh - what in god 's green earth are you doing out of bed ? adam : i feel good , actually . i 'm stronger and stronger every day . i ... constance : i 'm -- i 'm so pleased to hear -- hear that . adam : it 's been months . i 'm ready to take these bandages off . constance : no , i do n't ... i do n't -- i do n't know . adam : please listen to me . are n't you ready to see your grandson 's face ?

[ gentle music ] nicole : i 'm getting married . deimos proposed and i said yes . and i know , i know how you feel about him , so i 'm not gon na try and convince you otherwise . not now anyway . he 's done some bad things , chloe , i know . but so have we . and underneath all that , he has the sweetest heart , and he makes me feel special every day , and i have n't felt that way since i lost daniel . i miss you . and i miss holly , too . you have the sweetest little girl in the whole world , and i ca n't stop thinking about her and how much it meant to bring her into this world and to name her . i want to help you , chloe . i want to be there for you while you 're in here , but your mother wo n't let me . she says i 'm too attached . why -- i do n't know . maybe she 's right . maybe i should just focus on deimos and let her go . andré : i did not expect you to work quite so quickly . kate : i have no idea what you 're talking about . andré : i just had a visit by a very angry dario hernandez . he said that an external drive was stolen , an external drive that just happened to have the data of our missing microchips . kate : he told you that ? andré : oh , not to worry . there 's no proof . he even pulled a gun on me , but it was worth it because i knew that you 'd accomplished our mission and retrieved our missing technology . kate : i did n't do it . andré : but he said you were in the office . kate : i was . i could n't do it . i could n't betray eduardo . andré : but ... if you did n't take the drive , then who did ? i mean , who was even aware that those chips existed in the first place ? kate : well , i can think of one person . the only other person who knows what eduardo and dario are shipping in from china . andré : of course . [ tense music ] kate : that snake . that snake has just been waiting to screw us all . deimos : sometimes in life all the pieces seem to come together exactly at the same time . victor : yes , well , the love of a good woman will do that for you . deimos : you 're absolutely right , brother of mine . but my engagement to nicole is only half of the wonderful news from this week . i stumbled upon something that i think could be very lucrative for titan and cause irreparable damage to our competitors . victor : well , you have my attention . deimos : sonny , he witnessed dario hernandez tearing open the inside lining of a handbag , one which we shipped from china for gdr corp . victor : something hidden in the lining ? deimos : mm - hmm , microchips . so i had our people follow the trail . turns out eduardo had his men transfer the data from the microchips onto a hard drive . i thought that we might like that hard drive for ourselves . victor : you took hernandez 's drive ? deimos : yes , i did . at this point , i have n't been able to decode what 's on it , but i have no doubt of its importance . victor : well , i 'm very impressed . i should warn you , though . eduardo hernandez spent years as an assassin . if he finds out you 've stole from him , he will come after you . deimos : well , it 's not like i 'm broadcasting it . and the way i see it , eduardo felt that he could use titan for his smuggling operations without telling us . now we 're in control . so until i figure out what they 're up to , i 'm just gon na sit back and enjoy the fireworks . [ chuckles ] the hell is this ? andré : did you really think you were going to get away with it ? deimos : i have no idea what you 're talking about . andré : [ chuckles ] seems to be a lot of that going around . deimos : all right , look , you told henderson that you had some business to discuss with me . so why do n't we get to it , shall we ? i 'm recently engaged , and i have some plans with my fiancée . andré : ha . congratulations on your engagement ... deimos : thank you . andré : and stealing my property . deimos : i did n't steal anything of yours . andré : i 'm done with playing games , kiriakis . dario and eduardo , they took my microchips . deimos : microchips . i want interesting . andré : hmm . and you took their hard drive . do you know the entire future of my company and my family rests on that technology ? so how far do you think i 'd go in getting it back ? gabi : my brother and my father are running a nightclub . i mean , why would they be in trouble ? jj : i ca n't give you specifics , but it would be smart of you to put some distance between you and your family right now . gabi : why are you telling me this ? jj : 'cause even if you do n't want to be with me , i still care about you . i do n't want to see you get hurt . gabi : okay , yeah , i appreciate that , but , uh ... i 'm sorry . i have absolutely no idea what 's going on with that . i mean , whatever my father and my brother are up to , i told 'em it has nothing to do with me . i need to go , sorry . jj : they 'll take you down with them . gabi : jj , i have nothing to say . jj : i think you do . i think you know something about your father 's business , and if you do , you need to tell me everything right now before this blows up in a big way . [ tense music ] eduardo : did you think i would n't figure it out ? or , uh ... maybe you just did n't care . kate : i know what you 're thinking . eduardo : i 'm thinking that you need to admit what you did . kate : i have nothing to admit , eddie . eduardo : i invited you to lunch . i opened up to you . you used the occasion to steal from me . kate : all i know is that you stole something that belonged to dimera . if you 've lost it , then that 's your own fault . eduardo : if i 've lost it ? if i 've lost it ? is that how you describe sneaking into my office and taking it from me ? kate : and i told you i was not the one ! eduardo : then who was it who did it , kate ? kate : that 's not for me to say . eduardo : it 's so cowardly of you to lie to me . kate : how dare you . how dare you say that to me . i was trying to protect you . but , you know , i am done with this . i am done with it , and i am done with you !

[ gentle music ] nicole : i 'm getting married . deimos proposed and i said yes . and i know , i know how you feel about him , so i 'm not gon na try and convince you otherwise . not now anyway . he 's done some bad things , chloe , i know . but so have we . and underneath all that , he has the sweetest heart , and he makes me feel special every day , and i have n't felt that way since i lost daniel . i miss you . and i miss holly , too . you have the sweetest little girl in the whole world , and i ca n't stop thinking about her and how much it meant to bring her into this world and to name her . i want to help you , chloe . i want to be there for you while you 're in here , but your mother wo n't let me . she says i 'm too attached . why -- i do n't know . maybe she 's right . maybe i should just focus on deimos and let her go . andré : i did not expect you to work quite so quickly . kate : i have no idea what you 're talking about . andré : i just had a visit by a very angry dario hernandez . he said that an external drive was stolen , an external drive that just happened to have the data of our missing microchips . kate : he told you that ? andré : oh , not to worry . there 's no proof . he even pulled a gun on me , but it was worth it because i knew that you 'd accomplished our mission and retrieved our missing technology . kate : i did n't do it . andré : but he said you were in the office . kate : i was . i could n't do it . i could n't betray eduardo . andré : but ... if you did n't take the drive , then who did ? i mean , who was even aware that those chips existed in the first place ? kate : well , i can think of one person . the only other person who knows what eduardo and dario are shipping in from china . andré : of course . [ tense music ] kate : that snake . that snake has just been waiting to screw us all . deimos : sometimes in life all the pieces seem to come together exactly at the same time . victor : yes , well , the love of a good woman will do that for you . deimos : you 're absolutely right , brother of mine . but my engagement to nicole is only half of the wonderful news from this week . i stumbled upon something that i think could be very lucrative for titan and cause irreparable damage to our competitors . victor : well , you have my attention . deimos : sonny , he witnessed dario hernandez tearing open the inside lining of a handbag , one which we shipped from china for gdr corp . victor : something hidden in the lining ? deimos : mm - hmm , microchips . so i had our people follow the trail . turns out eduardo had his men transfer the data from the microchips onto a hard drive . i thought that we might like that hard drive for ourselves . victor : you took hernandez 's drive ? deimos : yes , i did . at this point , i have n't been able to decode what 's on it , but i have no doubt of its importance . victor : well , i 'm very impressed . i should warn you , though . eduardo hernandez spent years as an assassin . if he finds out you 've stole from him , he will come after you . deimos : well , it 's not like i 'm broadcasting it . and the way i see it , eduardo felt that he could use titan for his smuggling operations without telling us . now we 're in control . so until i figure out what they 're up to , i 'm just gon na sit back and enjoy the fireworks . [ chuckles ] the hell is this ? andré : did you really think you were going to get away with it ? deimos : i have no idea what you 're talking about . andré : [ chuckles ] seems to be a lot of that going around . deimos : all right , look , you told henderson that you had some business to discuss with me . so why do n't we get to it , shall we ? i 'm recently engaged , and i have some plans with my fiancée . andré : ha . congratulations on your engagement ... deimos : thank you . andré : and stealing my property . deimos : i did n't steal anything of yours . andré : i 'm done with playing games , kiriakis . dario and eduardo , they took my microchips . deimos : microchips . i want interesting . andré : hmm . and you took their hard drive . do you know the entire future of my company and my family rests on that technology ? so how far do you think i 'd go in getting it back ? gabi : my brother and my father are running a nightclub . i mean , why would they be in trouble ? jj : i ca n't give you specifics , but it would be smart of you to put some distance between you and your family right now . gabi : why are you telling me this ? jj : 'cause even if you do n't want to be with me , i still care about you . i do n't want to see you get hurt . gabi : okay , yeah , i appreciate that , but , uh ... i 'm sorry . i have absolutely no idea what 's going on with that . i mean , whatever my father and my brother are up to , i told 'em it has nothing to do with me . i need to go , sorry . jj : they 'll take you down with them . gabi : jj , i have nothing to say . jj : i think you do . i think you know something about your father 's business , and if you do , you need to tell me everything right now before this blows up in a big way . [ tense music ] eduardo : did you think i would n't figure it out ? or , uh ... maybe you just did n't care . kate : i know what you 're thinking . eduardo : i 'm thinking that you need to admit what you did . kate : i have nothing to admit , eddie . eduardo : i invited you to lunch . i opened up to you . you used the occasion to steal from me . kate : all i know is that you stole something that belonged to dimera . if you 've lost it , then that 's your own fault . eduardo : if i 've lost it ? if i 've lost it ? is that how you describe sneaking into my office and taking it from me ? kate : and i told you i was not the one ! eduardo : then who was it who did it , kate ? kate : that 's not for me to say . eduardo : it 's so cowardly of you to lie to me . kate : how dare you . how dare you say that to me . i was trying to protect you . but , you know , i am done with this . i am done with it , and i am done with you !

( knock on door ) holly : you 're not sebastian . you do n't exist . so just go . go . sebastian : it 's really me . ross : blake , i am the mayor , a lofty position of public trust and responsibility . so , if you feel the need to have your way with me , please have the decency to seduce me someplace in private . broad sfwhai broad shui in new york . yes and a hope they have n't plofd it ... moved it because the plaza is there too and a made reservations for this weekend . blake : why this ? why now ? ross : why not ? ca n't a husband be romantic without having his motives questioned ? blake : you tell me . ross : this gesture is more than hearts and flowers and lust . it 's also an apology . blake : ah . for being my mother 's confidante and telling me not to press her about sebastian 's death . ross : so then , we 're square ? blake : not so fast , bucko . i ca n't be bought that easily . jonathan : do n't worry , dinah- mite , you look beautiful just the way you are . dinah : scram , jonathan . jonathan : that 's not how you were talking to me last night when i had you in bed . or this morning . dinah : well , we 're not in bed any longer , and i 'm meeting someone . jonathan : okay . i guess you do n't have time to hear news that could leave you happily ever after with prince charming , but that 's fine by me . you could have saved me a lot of pain if you finished what you started years ago ! cassie : edmund . edmund , edmund ! are you okay ? edmund : yes , fine . fine . cassie : are you sure ? i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry that i did n't tell you what happened with jonathan the night before our wedding . i caused you a lot of unnecessary worrying . edmund : no . you did n't , cassie . you did n't , and it 's over , please . i have to get to towers for a meeting . excuse me . cassie : excuse me . i love you . edmund : same . cassie : same . okay . ( knock on door ) reva : cassie , where 's edmund ? cassie : uh , he 's not here . i 'm surprised that you did n't see him . reva : did he go out the back way ? cassie : whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . what are you looking for edmund for ? reva : so i can tell him to stay the hell away from my son or he 's going to be sorry . olivia : hello , harley . harley : hello , olivia . bad time ? olivia : actually ... bill : no . come on in . olivia : actually , i was just telling bill that this is really a bad time . i 'm a little crazy busy with alan gone , so maybe the two of you could find another office . bill : olivia , it 's an emergency . please . so , i got a subpoena from o'neill to testify . harley : yeah , i know . we should n't be talking about this . bill : yeah , and you know he 's going to ask me all sorts of questions about ruth and why you wanted to go undercover . harley : yeah , i know . we really , really should not be talking about this . bill : we both know how i answer those questions could either make your case better or worse , and i just want you to know one thing before you go into the courtroom . i 'm going to do whatever it takes to make things better . olivia : excuse me to interrupt your little pre- meeting , but i just want to make sure that i heard correctly . you are going to lie on the witness stand ? you are going to perjure yourself for her ? sebastian : hey , hey , holly . earth to holly . holly , come back to me , sweetheart . hello ? hey , easy . easy . holly , chill . chill . holly : i told ross , i told him you were alive tormenting me . sebastian : not anymore . holly : i saw you . you fell out of the airplane . you fell into the ocean . how did you survive ? sebastian : i ... i know , and i lived to tell about it . it 's a miracle , holly , a blessing . there 's no other explanation , so i just figure , i do n't know , you just got to go with it , you know ? i mean , i survived the disease that killed dad , and then i took a fall and bounced back . holly : and what are you doing here ? you 're back for revenge ? so get it over with . actually think i might try and buy you off ? you might . i would if i was convince it had would work . will it ? jury is still out . ross : oh . well , i am sorry , blake . blake : i know . i know . and i know that sebastian 's death brought up a lot of unresolved feelings my mother has for my father . and in order for you to be a better friend to her , you might have to be a little less sensitive to me . and i do n't really hold that against you . ross : you do n't ? blake : i said not really . and yes , i have a lot of questions about sebastian 's death , and i plan on pursuing them with or without your help . so i guess i do n't really hold that against you , either . ross : all righty . then what 's the problem ? blake : where are we eating ? ross : gramercy tavern . blake : good . of course we 're going to be there two nights , and i heard that per se in the time / warner building is the new in spot . ross : ( laughs ) i tried to get reservations there . impossible . blake : try harder . ross : madame first lady , you drive a hard bargain . blake : mr. mayor , i am so worth it . but you know that . ross : oh , i do . i do , my darling . my little dumpling . kissing is better than fighting , is n't it ? blake : oh , much . you see , guilt can be a positive force . ross : well , if that 's the case , i think i should be guilty for a little while longer . blake : why ? ross . ross : it 's dinah . you know , just recently i 've seen and heard some things that makes me believe that she 's back to her old obsessive tricks , while all the while playing her dear - old dad for a fool . blake : well , now that you see it , what are you going to do about it ? ross : oh , i have something in the works . blake : good . oh , listen , i have to run . i have to get to the towers . so , we 're going to talk about this tonight . later , all right ? and i love you . ross : i love you , too . blake : oh , and ross ? the flight to new york ? first class . pay for me please . jonathan : mom and josh were n't very happy to find out i had a girl in their bed last night . dinah : now , imagine what they would say if they knew that girl was little - old me . jonathan : let 's hold off on that for now . anyway , mom saw me limping and i had to explain to her how uncle eddie stopped by my hotel room yesterday and roughed me up about the night before cassie 's wedding thing . dinah : and ? jonathan : you know how protective my mom is . last time i saw her , she was storming out , going to rip uncle eddie a new one . and i bet cassie 's going to be there . dinah : fabulous . jonathan : this family , always fighting . you owe me one now , dinah . and i know just how i want to collect . dinah : not now . i 'm meeting someone . jonathan : who ? that guy ? are you kidding me ? where 's his pocket protector ? dinah : he 's a doctor . he 's a fertility specialist . i thought that might come in handy since edmund and cassie are trying to get pregnant . although i have to say , i do n't think it 's very worth it . he 's so into me , i want to puke . he calls at least ten times a day . jonathan : wow . a stalker with her own stalker . how about that ? go get him . dinah : hi . corey : hi . dinah : ( laughs ) hi , sweetie . i thought you were going to stand me up . corey : never . wow . you look great . but then you always look great . dinah : you are so sweet . shall we sit ? corey : oh , yeah , sure . i already got us a table . dinah : great . corey : listen , i hope you do n't mind i invited someone to join us , someone i really want you to meet . dinah : who ? corey : um , well , because i really like you , dinah . you know that , right ? i really like you . dinah : corey , who is it ? corey : my mom . reva : where is he , cassie ? where did he go ? cassie : i 'm not going to tell you when you 're acting like this . why do n't you calm down and tell me why you 're so crazy ? reva : edmund attacked jonathan while josh and i were at cross creek . cassie : okay , look , he really did n't do anything . reva : how do you know ? you were n't there . cassie : yes , i was . oh , so jonathan left that part out ? i 'm so surprised , when he told you everything else . reva : he did n't want to tell me anything , but i saw him limping and so i pulled the truth out of him . cassie : the truth according to jonathan . reva : i do n't know what the truth is , cassie . that 's why i 'm here . okay ? i want to hear edmund 's side of the story , and i 'd like to hear yours , too , if you 'll tell me . cassie : oh , right . that 's why you 're here . oh , come on . reva : that 's why i 'm here now . cassie : okay , fine . fine . i 'll tell you what happened . yes , edmund went over to see jonathan , and yes he was angry , and yes , he might have done something to hurt him if i did n't show up . reva : might have ? ( scoffs ) oh , yeah . cassie : well , yeah , and so what if he did ? i mean , come on , reva . does n't jonathan deserve it ? he walks around with a sign on his neck that says `` smack me `` half the time . reva : that still does n't give edmund or anyone else the right to go after him ... cassie : do n't make this about edmund and do n't blame edmund . if you want to blame someone , blame me , okay ? because i 'm the one who set up jonathan and i 'm the one who kept it from my husband . so it 's my fault . blame me , because i do . reva : because that would be so much easier for you , would n't it ? cassie : easier than what ? reva : easier than admitting , cassie , why you did n't tell edmund what happened that night . because you knew what his reaction would be . you knew he 'd attack my son , and that 's exactly what happened , so admit it ! big , bad edmund is back . olivia : did you just say that you 're going to perjure yourself on the witness stand for her ? you ca n't do that . what if you get caught ? you will go to jail . bill : olivia ? olivia , you 're making too big a deal of this . let 's not ... olivia : i do n't think i am . thanks for thinking of me . ( cell phone rings ) harley : bill ? olivia is right . you ca n't lie for me on the stand . bill : i got news for you , okay ? i do n't care what you want . what i want to do is help you , and i am going to do whatever it takes . look , i was there from the beginning with this whole ruth thing , remember ? chinese food on the beach ? harley : yeah . bill : okay . harley : see , that msg adache ? that was an omen . bill : look ... look , alan wants to do anything he can to get me . olivia is letting him sit in jail . i 've got a lot of risk in my life already , so it 's not a ... harley : okay , then do n't take anymore . i 'm serious . look , tell the truth -- nothing but the truth -- when you get up there , okay ? please , bill . bill : okay . if that 's what you want . harley : oh , please . no , that was way too easy . you 're going to get up there and do whatever you want , anyway , are n't you ? sebastian : just relax , holly . look , i 'm not going to hurt you , okay ? especially not in a room full of people . just kidding . i 'm not going to hurt you , period . holly : is that supposed to be funny ? sebastian : ( sighs ) i 'm sorry , holly . i 'm just ... i 'm just happy to be here , you know ? i 'm happy to be alive in 2005 . are n't you happy that i 'm alive ? it kind of lets you off the hook . holly : for what ? sebastian : uh , that little maybe accidental push off the plane . or were you intending for me to take the big plunge ? holly : no , i did not . that really was hard for me . until you started gaslighting me . sebastian : gaslighting you ? holly : the gold coins ? the dress ? the wine ? you 've been following me for weeks . sebastian : i do n't know . i just ... you know , i guess i just wanted to see how you would react if i showed up . holly : by gaslighting me ? sebastian : i 'm sorry , holly , i ... ( sighs ) the last time you saw me , i was different , you know ? come on , do n't i look healthier ? holly : maybe . sebastian : maybe ? holly , i was sick . i was sick , not just in body , but i was sick in my mind -- physically , emotionally sick . and , um , i do n't know , i was n't thinking right . i wasn't ... i was n't myself . holly : now you 're a better person ? sebastian : i pushed you in that plane . i do n't blame you for pushing me back . holly : you do n't ? sebastian : nope . holly : all right , then . you tell me what you 're doing here , what you 're really doing here . sebastian : i have cheated death twice , holly . i want to revel in life , the gift of life . you know why ? because it 's precious , it 's fragile , and i want to experience that and celebrate it . and i want to do that here . in springfield . corey : mom ca n't wait to meet you . dinah : well , i ca n't wait to meet her , either . corey : you 're going to love her , dinah . i promise . oh , there she is now . excuse me . mom ! mom . over here . oh , no . what 's wrong with your foot ? mrs. butler : it 's not my foot . it 's my shoe . stand up straight , will you ? i busted it on the terrazzo downstairs . you know , these people think they 're so smart putting in these fancy floors . but what they do to heels is criminal . criminal . and you must be dinah . dinah : yes . it 's a pleasure to meet you . mrs. butler : corey said you were pretty . corey : i said `` beautiful . `` mrs. butler : let 's keep it at pretty . so , you 're the mayor 's daughter ? dinah : yes , i am . mrs. butler : i did n't vote for him . well , i do n't vote , period . politicians are crooks . dinah : oh , i 'm sorry you feel that way . but i bet if you met my father , you 'd change your mind . mrs. butler : i never change my mind . about anything . well , did my corey tell you about the girl he let get away in college ? corey : oh , no , mom . let 's not ... mrs. butler : oh , now there was a catch . a kindergarten teacher , cared for her invalid mother . smart as a whip . dinah : well , she could n't have been that smart if she let this one go . huh ? corey : thanks . mrs. butler : she would have made a perfect doctor 's wife . so , corey , dear , whatever happened to that little doll ? corey : she and her life partner , alison , live in massachusetts now . mrs. butler : so , whose butt do you have to kiss to get a waiter around here ? get me a club soda , will you , sweetheart ? dinah : corey , it 's all right . i 'll go get it . mrs. butler : corey will go . so . dinah : so . did corey tell you how we met ? my sister - in - law , olivia , introduced us . mrs. butler : drop the act , honey . we 're alone now and i 've done my homework , toots , so i know all about how you shot your ex- fiancé and went on the lam . and if you think i 'm going to let you get your hooks into my baby , you 've got another thing coming . jonathan : you giving me the cold shoulder , uncle eddie ? edmund : ginger ale with bitters , please . jonathan : you happen to see my mom this morning ? what , are you meeting cassie here ? edmund : you should leave now . jonathan : so , what happened last night between you and cassie ... ? edmund : no , really . you should leave . jonathan : whatever . cassie : you 're wrong . jonathan tried to hurt us and edmund was just trying to protect his family , that 's all . reva : so , when you showed up at jonathan 's room , edmund was calm and rational , right ? cassie : he was n't out of control . reva : then how did jonathan hurt his leg again ? cassie : i do n't know and i do n't care . reva : oh , cassie , why ca n't you see ? whenever edmund feels threatened , he reverts back to type and he hurts anything that gets in his way . or do i have to remind you about a time in a tower just a few years back ? cassie : edmund 's not like that anymore . he 's changed . reva : maybe he hasn't . cassie : oh . so , jonathan can change but edmund can't . man . do you hear yourself ? jonathan has done nothing but cause pain to everyone since he 's come into this town , reva . reva : that 's because he was hurt himself . jonathan became what he is today because he was given a bum deal when he was growing up . but edmund was born that way . and maybe he 'll always be that way . cassie : get out of my house . reva : oh , cassie . cassie : get out , reva . , fine . then i 'll go . reva : you know i 'm right , cassie . that 's why you 're angry . because i 'm right . coming up on `` guiding light . `` jonathan : cassie , is it ever weird for you to live in the same house as him and sleep in the same bed after everything he 's done in the past to you , reva and me ? i do n't know , i think that would freak me out a little bit . harley : your husband is a very , very good guy . olivia : if you like him as much as you claim that you do , you will think about him and keep your distance . i 'll die before a see him with you . month . ill have turz like you have no interest in decent boys like my corey uthess there is something if n it for you what 's your angle ? angle ? do n't be so shokd . we both know people like you do n't change . never . that 's enough . looking for uncle eddie , he 's over at towers . have you guys ever considered signing him up for an anger management class ? stay away where me . whatever . no , wait . when you war lone with edmund if i had n't showed up do you think he really would have hurt you ? um , yeah , really hurt me , killed me , then really hurt me some more . edmund and i are a lot of like , from the same gene pool , if i was him i would probably really hurt me too and probably not stop there . you and ud mend are not alike . you 're two different people . owe kau : ... okay . cassie is it ever weird for you to live in the same house with him sleep in the same bed after everything he 's done in the past to you yef and me ? i do n't know , i think that would freak me out a little bit . you 're moving to springfield , why ? to do what ? sebastian : why ? it 's simple . i like this place . and i have family here . holly : i am not your family . sebastian : i know . but chrissie is . and as far as what i want to do , i do n't know . i have n't figured that out yet . but i want to , i do n't know , find something that makes me feel happy and useful . holly : no , no , no , no . this is about roger . you want to live here because roger lived here . sebastian : holly , people generally move someplace because of a reason , right ? i mean , family , friends , a job , great skiing , whatever . stop overanalyzing this . what ? ask me . anything . holly : all right , how do i ... blake : sebastian ? sebastian : chrissie . now , look , i just got finished reviving your mom , so do n't faint on me , okay ? blake : god . sebastian : hey , sis . bill : i want to help you , harley . harley : thanks . but by getting yourself into trouble ... bill : hey , i 'm not going to give up on you . harley : you sound like gus . gus , he ca n't admit defeat , either . ( laughs ) bill : he 's a good man . i 'm with him . harley : you know , he 's so convinced that he 'll have me acquitted that he 's rebuilding my house . and he does n't have any money . he lost his job and his family . did i forget to mention this to you ? bill : it 's because he cares about you , okay ? a lot of people do . harley : i know , but here 's my advice for those people . be realistic . worry about your family , worry about yourselves . do n't waste your time worrying about somebody like me . bill : okay , okay . whatever you say . sebastian : hey . blake : mom , you told me that he died in the island , that he had that disease . sebastian : you did ? actually , the truth is , chrissy , i fell . into a coma . so deep that everyone really assumed i was dead . then , what , you just came to ? sebastian : yeah . a couple of days after holly left . just like that . i woke up , rubbed my eyes and greeted a brand - new day . i suppose she also told you i was a little out mif mind down there and did some crazy things to her and michelle . yes , she did , she mentioned that . do you hate me ? greet your transformed brother . sebastian : i know ... i know it must be difficult after everything i 've done , but i want to make it up to you . both of you . now . and you know what ? we 're going to have a lot of time to make up , because i 'm moving here . blake : you are ? sebastian : yes , i am . and i 'll fill you in on that , too , but it 's got to wait because i have an appointment and i 'll pick that up on another time . i 'll call you soon . you look great . i love you . bye . bye . i am just so happy to see both of you again . holly : he says he 's changed . more than his hair color . blake : you do n't believe him ? holly : i have to get back to the office . blake : mom . holly : i 'm late for an appointment . sebastian . sebastian : hey , you . holly : i want to thank you for not telling blake the truth about what happened on the plane . sebastian : holly , i told you i did n't come here to make things harder for you . i came for a new start . holly : really ? sebastian : really , honestly and truly . you satisfied ? holly : i do n't know . where i do i fit into this picture ? ( cell phone ringing ) bill : hey . harley : yeah ? bill : i 'm not going to stop worrying about you , okay ? harley : thanks . olivia : i 'll check . hang on . anybody here order chinese food ? bill : uh , yeah . that 's me . it 's the good stuff this time . no msg . harley : good man . bill : all right . olivia : he 'll be right out . harley : but i ca n't stay . bill : yes , you can . harley : no , no . bill : yes , you can . harley : i really ... bill : yes , you can . harley : ... ca n't stay . your husband is a very , very good guy . olivia : sometimes he 's too good for his own good . you know why he asked you to meet him here , right ? to avoid the press ? but he really did n't think beyond that . harley : how do you mean ? olivia : well , the name on this building is spaulding , and if one of alan 's people sees you around here ... harley : he would think that you are fraternizing with the enemy . olivia : yeah , big - time . harley : and we do n't want to do anything to antagonize big al . olivia : bingo . harley : so , then why are you letting him stew in jail ? i mean , that 's a surefire way to tick him off . or , i 'm sorry , maybe i misunderstood what bill just told me . olivia : bill just told you that ? it 's different . it 's different . harley : how so ? olivia : it 's business . harley : or maybe it 's just that you get to play with fire and bill doesn't . olivia : all i 'm saying is if you like him as much as you claim that you do , you will think about him and keep your distance . harley : well , that 's actually what i was planning to do anyway olivia . but thanks for underestimating me . bill : all righty , we 've got spare ribs and sesame noodles . harley : you can have my share because i have to go anyway . bill : i 've got plenty here . harley : you know what ? i 've got to go , bill . thanks . bill : did i miss something ? olivia : i just think harley knows it 's best to keep her distance , even if you don't . bill : olivia , she 's my friend . olivia : we ca n't do anything for her . but what is within our power is to make sure the spauldings do n't hurt anybody else . bill : oh , so wait a minute . that 's why you 're running this company and letting alan sit in jail ? it 's for the good of mankind ? is that what you 're telling me ? olivia : well , i 'm sure as hell not about to lose everything over someone who 's already a lost cause . cassie : who the hell are you , and why are you following me ? rufus : following you ? cassie : yes . rufus : i 'm not following you . cassie : let me tell you something . i am a black belt ... ross : cassie . cassie . cassie : ross . the mayor . great . this guy has been following me and i 'm trying to figure out why . ross : it 's all right . he works for the city . he 's part of my security detail . cassie : what ? ross : i asked him to follow you . now i 'm asking him not to . rufus , that 's enough for today . thanks . cassie : would you like to tell me what 's going on here , ross ? ross : the day that i found you and dinah fighting in the barn , i realized that i 'm in denial . dinah has n't changed . cassie : so you put a tail on me . ross : to protect you , yes . cassie : well , why do n't you put a tail on your own daughter ? why do n't you open your eyes ? you want to protect me , ross ? keep your daughter away from me and make her stay away from me , okay ? i just got married and i 'm trying to have a baby , and i 've got enough to worry about . edmund : i think you owe my friend an apology . people not only can change , they do . mrs. butler : are you threatening me ? that 's just one more reason why my son wants nothing to do with you , dinah . come on , corey , let 's go . corey : but ... mrs. butler : now . out . corey : my keys . i 'm so sorry . i do n't care what she thinks of you . i still want to see you . i 'll call you . edmund : the question is , do you still want to see him ? dinah : well , maybe . until something better comes along . you did n't have to defend me like that . thank you , edmund . edmund : you 're welcome , dinah . but yes , i did . honestly , do you think he 's your type ? dinah : well , people did n't think cassie should be with you , but look how wrong they were . edmund : yes , well , i wonder . dinah : about what ? edmund : i wonder where my appointment is . if you 'll excuse me , dinah , i have to make a telephone call . reva : hey , jonathan . jonathan : hey , ma . reva : why did you jump away like that ? you thought i was edmund , did n't you ? you thought i was going to hurt you . olivia : hi , jeffrey . it 's olivia spencer . look , i have n't received a phone call from your office yet and i was just curious . do you need me to testify against harley cooper ? billy : hey , what 's that ? bill : you got my message . billy : i like the square footage but i hate what they did with the grating out there . bill : seen the drawings . the architect came up with a good design . the problem now is gus has a cash flow problem and he 's up to his eyeballs with the harley trial . so i thought maybe we could help him out , finish getting this place framed up and roofed . billy : we ? bill : lewis . i mean lewis . billy : wait , wait , wait . you said `` we . `` bill : i 'm a lewis , right ? come on , i 'm not coming back to the company , all right ? billy : if you did , i 'd take you back in a heartbeat . bill : well , thank you very much , but i 've got my own gig now with olivia . billy : ah . bill : okay ? i do n't think it 's right . i do n't like the way they graded that , either . billy : hey , boy . construction is in your blood and you 're good at it . bill : so , are you going to help harley get this place up or what ? billy : no problem . blake : harley . harley : hi . blake : i am so glad you 're here . how are you ? i mean , besides the obvious . i mean , are you all right ? harley : yeah , i just ... i just got off the phone with gus . o'neil changed his witness order for the afternoon . he 's putting frank on the stand next . blake : to testify against you ?

you might . i would if i was convince it had would work . will it ? jury is still out . ross : oh . well , i am sorry , blake . blake : i know . i know . and i know that sebastian 's death brought up a lot of unresolved feelings my mother has for my father . and in order for you to be a better friend to her , you might have to be a little less sensitive to me . and i do n't really hold that against you . ross : you do n't ? blake : i said not really . and yes , i have a lot of questions about sebastian 's death , and i plan on pursuing them with or without your help . so i guess i do n't really hold that against you , either . ross : all righty . then what 's the problem ?

that guy ? are you kidding me ? where 's his pocket protector ? dinah : he 's a doctor . he 's a fertility specialist . i thought that might come in handy since edmund and cassie are trying to get pregnant . although i have to say , i do n't think it 's very worth it . he 's so into me , i want to puke . he calls at least ten times a day . jonathan : wow . a stalker with her own stalker . how about that ? go get him . dinah : hi . corey : hi . dinah : ( laughs ) hi , sweetie . i thought you were going to stand me up . corey : never . wow . you look great . but then you always look great . dinah : you are so sweet . shall we sit ?

i really like you . dinah : corey , who is it ? corey : my mom . reva : where is he , cassie ? where did he go ? cassie : i 'm not going to tell you when you 're acting like this . why do n't you calm down and tell me why you 're so crazy ? reva : edmund attacked jonathan while josh and i were at cross creek . cassie : okay , look , he really did n't do anything . reva : how do you know ? you were n't there . cassie : yes , i was . oh , so jonathan left that part out ? i 'm so surprised , when he told you everything else . reva : he did n't want to tell me anything , but i saw him limping and so i pulled the truth out of him . cassie : the truth according to jonathan . reva : i do n't know what the truth is , cassie . that 's why i 'm here . okay ? i want to hear edmund 's side of the story , and i 'd like to hear yours , too , if you 'll tell me . cassie : oh , right . that 's why you 're here . oh , come on . reva : that 's why i 'm here now . cassie : okay , fine . fine . i 'll tell you what happened . yes , edmund went over to see jonathan , and yes he was angry , and yes , he might have done something to hurt him if i did n't show up . reva : might have ? ( scoffs ) oh , yeah . cassie : well , yeah , and so what if he did ? i mean , come on , reva . does n't jonathan deserve it ? he walks around with a sign on his neck that says `` smack me `` half the time . reva : that still does n't give edmund or anyone else the right to go after him ... cassie : do n't make this about edmund and do n't blame edmund . if you want to blame someone , blame me , okay ? because i 'm the one who set up jonathan and i 'm the one who kept it from my husband . so it 's my fault . blame me , because i do . reva : because that would be so much easier for you , would n't it ? cassie : easier than what ? reva : easier than admitting , cassie , why you did n't tell edmund what happened that night . because you knew what his reaction would be . you knew he 'd attack my son , and that 's exactly what happened , so admit it ! big , bad edmund is back . olivia : did you just say that you 're going to perjure yourself on the witness stand for her ? you ca n't do that . what if you get caught ? you will go to jail . bill : olivia ? olivia , you 're making too big a deal of this . let 's not ... olivia : i do n't think i am . thanks for thinking of me .

get me a club soda , will you , sweetheart ? dinah : corey , it 's all right . i 'll go get it . mrs. butler : corey will go . so . dinah : so . did corey tell you how we met ? my sister - in - law , olivia , introduced us . mrs. butler : drop the act , honey . we 're alone now and i 've done my homework , toots , so i know all about how you shot your ex- fiancé and went on the lam . and if you think i 'm going to let you get your hooks into my baby , you 've got another thing coming . jonathan : you giving me the cold shoulder , uncle eddie ?

edmund : no , really . you should leave . jonathan : whatever . cassie : you 're wrong . jonathan tried to hurt us and edmund was just trying to protect his family , that 's all . reva : so , when you showed up at jonathan 's room , edmund was calm and rational , right ? cassie : he was n't out of control . reva : then how did jonathan hurt his leg again ? cassie : i do n't know and i do n't care . reva : oh , cassie , why ca n't you see ? whenever edmund feels threatened , he reverts back to type and he hurts anything that gets in his way . or do i have to remind you about a time in a tower just a few years back ? cassie : edmund 's not like that anymore . he 's changed . reva : maybe he hasn't . cassie : oh . so , jonathan can change but edmund can't . man . do you hear yourself ? jonathan has done nothing but cause pain to everyone since he 's come into this town , reva . reva : that 's because he was hurt himself . jonathan became what he is today because he was given a bum deal when he was growing up . but edmund was born that way . and maybe he 'll always be that way . cassie : get out of my house . reva : oh , cassie . cassie : get out , reva . , fine . then i 'll go . reva : you know i 'm right , cassie . that 's why you 're angry . because i 'm right . coming up on `` guiding light . `` jonathan : cassie , is it ever weird for you to live in the same house as him and sleep in the same bed after everything he 's done in the past to you , reva and me ?

i 've got to go , bill . thanks . bill : did i miss something ? olivia : i just think harley knows it 's best to keep her distance , even if you don't . bill : olivia , she 's my friend . olivia : we ca n't do anything for her . but what is within our power is to make sure the spauldings do n't hurt anybody else . bill : oh , so wait a minute . that 's why you 're running this company and letting alan sit in jail ?

[ chuckles ] we should have video chatted , 'cause , man , i wish i could see the look on your faces . well , i 'm gon na go , because liam 's breaking the news to steffy right now , and i should be there to pick up the pieces . so ... [ beeps ] katie : how 's that for being blindsided ? ivy : so , i - i should n't tell liam ? quinn : what do you think ? ivy : oh , quinn ! it 's stunning . quinn : [ chuckles ] it 's yours . consider it a wedding gift . ivy : ugh , this marriage is n't -- i have to tell liam . quinn : do you love him ? ivy : yes , of course i do . quinn : does he love you ? ivy : he loves steffy . he 's only married to me so i do n't get deported . quinn : yeah , but that could happen again . ivy : no , because the agent came here -- quinn : the same agent that told you you were here illegally ? he can come back again and say , `` oops , sorry . i made another mistake . `` i mean , come on . look . you 're living the life you always wanted . you 're -- you 're living right here in l.a. you 're working at the family business , designing jewelry , married to the man that you adore . yes , i - it happened a little quickly , but just -- just be quiet . do n't screw it up . ivy : quinn , liam needs to know . quinn : liam needs saving from himself . he 's been with steffy more times than he should have . it did n't work out before . it is n't gon na work out again . you are mrs. liam spencer . steffy : what do you want from me , liam ? i ca n't keep doing this . liam : i do n't -- i do n't know what i want . this whole situation 's got me really ... confused . listen , i have to tell you something . um ... when you left earlier , ivy asked me if we could at least try to make the marriage work . steffy : what did you say ? liam : i told her we could try . because -- because you were done with me , steffy . that 's exactly what you said . steffy : no , no , no , no , no ! one of the reasons that i came back to los angeles was to tell you that i wanted you . i made that very clear , but i will not be second to your wife . liam : the marriage was for show . it was for show . steffy : it 's not for show anymore . you just told her that you 're willing to try to make it work . liam : okay , so tell me i made a mistake . tell me that . steffy : do you love her ? that 's what i thought . liam : i love you . i love who we are together . i love what we share , and i spent a very long time lying to myself about that . do you know what it took ? it took this false marriage . it took the threat of losing you for good for me to realize that . but i still care for ivy , and i do n't want to hurt her , so i need to know where you stand . steffy : why ? you already told her that you 're gon na try to make it work . liam : if there 's a chance -- if there 's a chance , i ca n't do this . i ca n't lose you again . steffy : you already did the moment when you said , `` i do . `` it should n't have happened in the first place , because if you really wanted me , you would n't have married ivy . liam : okay . [ chuckles ] okay . i did n't want to have to turn this around on you , but you have to understand , steffy . you left . we were married , and we were going through something very difficult and very sad . we lost a child , and you left . i was devastated . i had to swallow all of those feelings down just so i could move on . steffy : mission accomplished . liam : until you came back . and you started telling me that you still loved me . and i tried to hide those feelings . i tried to do right by ivy . but how can i deny this ? how can i deny what we bring to each other , who we are together ? yes , did i tell ivy that i would try to make the marriage work ? yes . yes , i did that , but frankly , i do n't -- i do n't know what the hell i 'm doing , and can you blame me , really , given this situation ? here 's what i believe . here 's what i believe . i believe that this is fixable . i believe that we deserve our chance , but i need to hear it from you , steffy . i need to hear you say that you want that , too . so , tell me you want that , too . steffy : that 's what you do . you fix things . i want to believe you , liam . you know what you mean to me , but i ca n't keep doing this -- different girl , same situation , going back to right where we were . i ca n't . so go to ivy . no . you should n't even be here . you 're married . go . liam : give me something . give me a sign , and i will figure it out . steffy : you can only tear up marriage papers so many times to convince me . go home to your wife . oh , my god . [ sighs ] [ crying ] bill : no answer . katie : i can not believe liam married ivy . bill : oh , any chance to jump into a phone booth , put on his little cape . katie : but it 's such a big step ! bill : you were just saying how into each other they are . katie : sure , to be dating , a budding relationship , not to get married , a lifelong commitment . i mean , my god . he 's so impulsive . he always wants to save the day . bill : look , he would n't be married to ivy if he did n't have to be , not with steffy around . ivy : yes , i may be mrs. liam spencer , but once he finds out that he does n't have to be -- quinn : give it back . ivy : what ? quinn : uh , it 's nothing personal . i made a mistake . ivy : [ scoffs ] look , he has to know what 's going on . he cares for me , yes , but he wants to be with steffy , quinn . quinn : do n't cave in so easily . you guys were together before all this happened . help him see why . do n't just hand him over to steffy . here . take it . the next time i ask for it back , you say ... ? ivy : no . it 's mine . quinn : you can have it all if you really want it . just -- just do n't say a word to liam . wyatt : [ clears throat ] went that well , huh ? steffy : he says the marriage is n't real . you know the sad part ? i just want him to be happy . and it 's obvious that he 's not . but i wo n't compete for him again . wyatt : steffy , you should n't have to compete with anyone . steffy : thank you . thank you . and ... i do n't want him . not anymore . i wo n't share him with another woman , especially not his wife .

[ sighs ] katie : look at him . no matter what happened , he just pushed on , kept living life . he 's just -- kim : what ? what ? katie : i stopped when he did . i stopped living my life , pretending that the baby is n't here , not giving him a name , not taking down the decorations . i just thought maybe if i just stopped moving that time would go back and he -- i got to go . kim : where are you going ? what 's the matter ? katie : i 'm gon na go to the hospital and hold my baby . holden : you 've been pretty quiet since i came back . something wrong ? maeve : remember how you used to talk to me about eb , about how he was n't a good guy and i should try to get away from him ? holden : yeah . maeve : do you remember how you told me that i deserved a man who treated me better ? holden : what 's with all the questions ? maeve : i kind of got up in your business , and it was n't because of my feelings for you but more because of things you 've been saying to me , like i 'm a special person and i 'm a good person . holden : what did you do ? maeve : lily came by . holden : when i was downstairs . maeve : mm - hmm . holden : does she know that i saw her with damian ? maeve : she did n't say , but i do n't think so . holden : so , how exactly did you get in to my business ? maeve : i was just looking out for you , i swear . holden : what did you say ? maeve : it 's more like i let her think that you and i had slept together . i could n't help myself . she came to that door and she acted like she owned you . & i mean , what right does she have ? she married another man ! i saw the way she was looking , and i just let her think it . holden : it 's okay . it 's okay . maeve : it is ? holden : yeah . she 's got her life . i 've got mine . maeve : that 's just what i told her . you know , i got to thinking , and i realized something . holden : yeah ? what 's that ? maeve : that sticking it to lily was n't for me . it was more like a gift for you . holden : is that right ? maeve : you kept telling me that i deserve a man who puts me first . well , i think you deserve at least that much from a woman , and obviously lily 's not gon na do that for you . holden : obviously . maeve : so , this is your chance . make a clean break . you walk away from lily , and do n't you ever look back . damian : why do n't you tell me what happened ? lily : i do n't think things are gon na work out with holden . damian : i 'm sorry . lily : no , you 're not . damian : do you think i enjoy seeing you hurt ? i do n't . lily : i do n't know what to do . i have so many feelings left for holden that wo n't go away . and i thought that he felt the same way . i thought he loved me . damian : lily , he did n't come to the cabin . you were waiting for him . he knew that . you were there , and he did n't even show up . how many times are you gon na let him treat you this way ? lily : i guess i was crazy to think that -- damian : no , not crazy . loyal , devoted , loving . i wish for your sake that he could see these things , but for my sake , i am happy that he 's blind to all of these beautiful things that you are . lily : i guess it 's safe to say he 's getting on with his life . damian : that means you 're free to get on with your life , as well , and say good - bye to holden once and for all . | lily : it makes sense , does n't it ? holden 's cut me loose . i happen to have another husband at hand . why the hell should n't i go for it ? damian : lily , you 're getting upset . lily : i 'm not upset , damian . it 's like you said , i 'm free . i 'm free of the man that i 've loved for more than half my life . i 'm free of the father of my children . i have a house . i have a bed . i have a wedding ring . what 's stopping me ? damian : you tell me , lily . lily : i 'm not that woman . damian : what are you talking about ? lily : someone who feels so worthless without a man , any man . i went to holden 's room for a reason , damian . i wanted to start our life again . and for me to end up here in your arms minutes later , i 'm not that woman , and you should n't want to be married to that kind of woman either . damian : so what ? you 're going to sacrifice your pride ? keep chasing after a man who 's made clear -- lily : i 'm not chasing anybody . damian : then what will you do ? lily : i 'll be alone . damian : for how long ? lily : i do n't know . i have my children . i have work . i can focus on that . it should be enough . damian : if that 's what you want . lily : i want my life back , okay ? i want to wake up in the morning and make choices based on what i need , what i want , not whether or not somebody 's in or out of love with me . damian : and while you 're living this solitary life , what happens to us ? lily : i think that we should go ahead with the annulment . damian : i think not . lily : you 're gon na fight me on this , even now ? damian : i refuse to stop hoping , lily . i refuse to give up on our life , on our love , and i think , in your heart of hearts , you do n't want to give up either . so , please promise me , no annulment for now . lily : it just seems cruel to keep you in limbo like this . damian : no . it 's all i 'm asking . lily : all right . i 'll hold off on the annulment . damian : thank you . good luck on your solitary . i 'll be waiting .

[ scene_break ] david : you have some tiny bone fragments in your spine from the accident . we did everything we could to relieve the pressure , but there was a lot of scarring . the bottom line is a neurosurgeon needs to get in there , take care of the scarring , and reattach the spine using an experimental stem cell breakthrough . but , greenlee , the procedure is very risky , especially for someone who 's still recovering as you are . greenlee : well -- is n't there someone in pine valley who could do it ? david : no . now , i 've been in discussions with a surgeon who 's currently working out of sweden . when the time is right , i want him to come here to perform the surgery . but i wanted to make sure that you were awake and cognizant first , so you and i can discuss the implications . greenlee : you mean , like , i 'll be paralyzed for life ? david : greenlee , the surgery could kill you . well , now that you 're awake , it 's your decision to make . or -- you can call ryan right now and discuss it with him . greenlee : but there 's a chance that i could die on him . again . david : yeah . greenlee : i could n't do that to him , to walk back into his life just to leave again . david : or you can call him right now and forget all about the surgery . greenlee : but never walk again . david : as i said , it 's not my call to make anymore . it 's entirely your decision .

[ scene_break ] julian : you do know i almost died , right ? that car bomb that blew morgan up was meant for me . alexis : yeah . i was really upset about that . julian : were you ? alexis : that bomb was payback for all the wrong that you have done to so many people . julian : [ sighs ] alexis : morgan was just in the wrong place at the wrong time , and he 's dead because of you . julian : well , you know , you 're not the first one to tell me that . alexis : yeah , i sure as hell wo n't be the last one . my god , he was just a kid . julian : he was a grown man who made a very bad decision . alexis : it should have been you . julian : you know what , alexis ? you do n't want to make a scene right now . alexis : you 're gon na correct me on my behavior ? excuse me . i 'm sorry . i know you 're eating . i do n't mean to interrupt . but -- hands . would n't you throw a parade if -- if he were gone ? i mean , i would . but you 're julian jerome . nothing is ever gon na happen to you . it 's just that morgan , that poor kid , had to pay with his life for what you did . julian : do you hear yourself right now ? you 're drunk , alexis . alexis : [ shakes her drink as the ice rattles ] [ scene_break ] nelle : it 's a pretty view . michael : [ sighs ] yeah . nelle : you can see the whole city from up here . michael : it 's a good place to think . nelle : yeah . i 'll leave you alone . michael : oh , no , it 's -- it 's fine . stay . i 'm not , uh ... i 'm not gon na find what i came here looking for , anyway . nelle : what 's that ? michael : my little brother .

[ scene_break ] curtis : i am a licensed , fully - credited pi . i do n't believe i have to check in with you every time i get work . jordan : curtis , it 's sonny . what the hell are you thinking ? curtis : i 'm thinking this is none of your business , and i 'm not beholden to you . jordan : oh , really ? are you beholden to tj ? curtis : is that where you got this from -- tj ? jordan : just stay out of my investigation , okay ? because when i go after sonny , i may go after you , too . [ scene_break ] michael : i 've been coming up here since i was a little kid . yeah , they used to have a different bridge here . it was -- it was made of white stone . nelle : yeah . i researched that . it was part of an ornamental garden gifted to the city by edwin rice . michael : you researched the history of port charles ? nelle : well , i 'm big on research , you know . you kind of have to be when you want to be a teacher . michael : you know , the city , uh , changed the landscape once it put the new bridge in . but [ sighs ] when morgan and i were kids , this place was overgrown . we , uh ... we loved playing hide - and - seek in the woods . nelle : just you , morgan , and the bodyguards . michael : yeah . yeah , we had two of them -- max and milo . it was , uh , brothers taking care of brothers . nelle : what an interesting way to grow up . michael : no , no , my parents had a very , uh , intense relationship . they were n't together for most of our childhood . we spent half the time with our mom , and then the other half my dad . [ key jingles ] michael : yeah , this was morgan 's . it 's the key to our mom 's old house . she sold it years ago , when jax got her [ sighs ] a place on the lake . nelle : why a penguin ? michael : morgan loved them . he read everything he could on them . nelle : is it because of that movie ? michael : because they 're loyal . they always come back to the same nest , and when it 's time to make penguin babies , the same dad penguins stay with the same mom penguins . nelle : that 's really sweet . michael : yeah , that was morgan . oh , do n't get me wrong . we were brothers . we fought a lot . he 'd storm off , running , but he always came back . [ exhales sharply ] he was the definition of a homebody . and he always stuck by you . nelle : you know , i - i wonder how he would feel now , knowing that no one is sticking by his father . [ scene_break ] sonny : come on , baldwin ! i 'm right here ! come on ! scott : to hell with you , corinthos . sonny : come on ! ava : scott , leave him alone . sonny : i 'm coming after you ! do you understand me ? ava : hey , jason , would you get him the hell out of here ? ! sonny : i 'm coming after you . scott : have the dreams started yet ? sonny : what ? what did you say to me ? jason : do n't listen to him . scott : dreams -- the nightly visits that morgan 's gon na pay you , because karen still comes to me . jason : shut your mouth . scott : i dream about a child that i lost . you 're gon na dream about a child that you murdered . jason : okay . let 's go . let 's go . [ scene_break ] alexis : i 'm not drunk . but i 'm working on it . julian : well , you could have fooled me , with the , uh , alcohol , the loud voice , the bravado . alexis : oh ! [ slurring ] shut up ! julian : mm . alexis : just shut up ! everyone here knows . everyone everywhere knows that you , julian jerome , are a murderer . julian : well , i did n't kill morgan corinthos . alexis : you might as well have . julian : okay , look , i did n't tell morgan to drink , i did n't tell him to steal my car , and i sure as hell did n't plant that bomb in my car . now , look , the whole thing is terrible . it 's a true tragedy , okay ? but it could have been far worse . alexis : [ laughs ] really ? julian : hey , listen . morgan mixed his meds with alcohol . it 's a miracle he did n't plow into a car full of people . you know , carly and sonny are lucky that , uh , morgan was the only casualty to their lousy parenting . i mean , look , they stood to lose far more the moment their misbegotten runt got behind the wheel -- let me tell you . [ carly slaps julian ] julian : what ? ! carly : say it again , you bastard ! [ crowd murmuring ] [ scene_break ] griffin : so it 's nice to know that it 's as simple as that . the guy that abducted you works for valentin cassadine ? maxie : he did n't actually say that to me , but who else would want claudette ? anna : well , valentin should still be in prison in greece . i 'm gon na verify that with the bureau . nathan : well , just because he 's locked up in prison does n't mean he could n't pay somebody to do it . anna : no , agreed . who we really need to talk to is the man who grabbed you , maxie . maxie : good luck with that . that guy took off as soon as he turned on the gas . nathan : but max did give a good description to our sketch artist , and an apb 's been put out . dante 's on top of the investigation , and the pcpd 's working in tandem with the coast guard and the state police , so ... anna : the sooner , the better . maxie 's safe , thank goodness . but for claudette and for charlotte , this is just the beginning . [ scene_break ] curtis : so , first you try to tell me where i can and ca n't work , and then you want to arrest me for doing my job ? now , i get that you 're under a lot of pressure , but do n't take that out on me . jordan : i can handle the pressure . what i ca n't handle is you getting in the middle of an active investigation . curtis : i am not trying to interfere with your investigation . now , if this lecture is done -- jordan : you are doing sonny 's dirty work . you 're either destroying or planting evidence to obscure the truth from that bombing . now , sonny corinthos -- he tried to kill julian jerome , and you know what ? he killed his own son instead . so , if he wants justice , he needs to turn himself in instead of hiring guys like you to muddy up the water . okay ? it 's not gon na serve morgan ... you 're not serving sonny , right ? curtis : wh -- you know what ? we 're done here . you pull it together , commissioner . jordan : oh , my god . you 're working for julian . [ scene_break ] carly : what did you say ? ! no , i want to make sure i hear every pathetic word that came out of your mouth . julian : clearly , you 're upset right now -- carly : you came into my restaurant and my hotel , and you 're talking trash about my kid . morgan 's dead because of you , because you were n't rotting in a prison cell . julian : i 'm not responsible for what sonny does , okay , carly ? carly : you 're a liar and a murderer and a coward . and my son is dead , but i can still protect him . so come on . julian : okay . carly : come after me ! try putting a knife to my throat . alexis : carly . carly , carly . julian : easy , easy . carly : i want you to get out . julian : everybody just needs to relax . carly : get out ! get the hell out ! julian : i 'm leaving . carly : get out of my restaurant . get out of port charles . julian : just relax . carly : everyone wanted you dead . everybody wanted -- get out ! julian : i 'm leaving . carly : get -- get out ! [ glass shatters ] [ scene_break ] ava : i 'm sorry about your daughter . i really am . but sonny corinthos -- h - he 's dangerous on an average day , and now he -- he 's grieving . you ca n't provoke him like that . scott : provoke him ? he 's a maniac . he attacked me , had his hands around my throat . we would have had a fight to the finish if jason had n't showed up . ava : yes , well , you 're welcome . scott : for what ? ava : i texted jason as soon as you and sonny started going at it . scott : well , you should have texted the police , because i 'm gon na call them right now . ava : what ? no , no . no , you will do no such thing . [ scene_break ] [ door opens ] sonny : why the hell did you stop me ? i would have snapped his neck . he 's the reason -- baldwin is the reason that julian walked . if julian were in prison right now , my son would still be alive . jason : sonny . we still do n't know everything about what happened that night . sonny : well , we know that i had to use a broker . we know that i had -- i had no control over the hit . and we know that , in a million years , i would n't have ordered it , right ? i would n't have ordered that car bomb . we also know ... ... that the man i trusted refused to do the job . and now my son is dead . jason : you 're blaming me for morgan 's death ? [ scene_break ] nathan : yeah , thanks for the update , murphy . i 'm off the clock for the next three hours , but please call me if you get something new . claudette ordered a flight this afternoon to calgary -- superiorair , flight 671 . she should be landing soon , where the canadian police will be waiting to take her into custody . anna : great . i will have a wsb agent on site , and i will make sure that claudette calls you . and then you can let her know that charlotte is okay . griffin : thank you . anna : and that we are able to protect them both from valentin . nathan : you know , claudette warned me that valentin had powerful friends with a long reach , but it looks like she was right . i want to make sure that charlotte and her mother are safe . griffin : hey , look , thank you so much , but claudette and charlotte are no long your responsibility . they 're mine . nathan : look , it does n't matter that i 'm not her father . okay , she 's a child . she is innocent in all of this . and it is my job to protect and serve , and that 's what i 'm gon na do . you have my word . [ scene_break ] jordan : tj implied that maybe you were working for sonny , but i really could n't understand him , because why would he hire an outsider ? why would he do that when he 's got people of his own to do that kind of thing ? curtis : i 'm sure he does . jordan : why would he hire somebody so close and with such clear ties to the police department ? huh ? curtis : who knows why sonny does anything he does . jordan : curtis , just give up . it 's done . you 're working for julian . you 're not working for sonny . you 're working for julian ? what have you got ? huh ? whatever information you have that 's pertinent , it 's your obligation to tell me . curtis : my obligation ? jordan : yes , it is . curtis : my obligation ? jordan : absolutely . curtis : oh , not living . look , remember , i came to you for a job at the pcpd , right ? you refused . fair enough . so i busted my ass to build a thriving pi business . [ scoffs ] and you want me to give you all the information that i uncovered ? oh , hell no . jordan : you realize i can charge you ? i can charge you with interfering with an investigation . curtis : what investigation ? you ai n't got nothing . jordan : just stop , curtis ! curtis : i 'm ... you do n't get it . i 'm trying to stop a war out there . jordan : if you prove that sonny ordered that bomb , then julian 's gon na retaliate , and then there 's gon na be more blood . do you get that ? curtis : julian does n't need proof to retaliate . julian needs proof to put sonny away in prison . jordan : what are you saying right now ? curtis : i 'm saying that julian jerome has lost faith in the pcpd . and that is why i 'm investigating . [ scene_break ] alexis : carly . can i call someone for you ? carly : i 'm fine . i 'm fine . alexis : you do n't seem fine . carly : well , you know what ? you do n't seem so great yourself . alexis : well , i 'm barely holding it together , but that 's nothing new . carly : [ exhales sharply ] alexis : i 'm surprised to see you here . carly : um ... i did n't want to be home and ... think about how morgan 's never gon na walk back in the door again . [ sighs ] alexis : i am so sorry . carly : can i tell you how much i hate that expression ? why are you sorry ? you did n't hurt my son . and no matter how sorry you are , nothing you or anyone else does can bring him back . [ scene_break ] ava : no , look ! if sonny is arrested , the first thing he 'll do is call diane miller . and the first thing she 'll do is have him tell her everything that led up to this altercation . scott : `` altercation `` ? he tried to choke me to -- ava : and the longer that sonny thinks about our conversation tonight , the more likely it is that he will become suspicious about my ... role in what happened to morgan . scott : wh -- wh - why would he suspect anything ? ava : [ sighs ] because of his personal experience . he knows every single symptom of bipolar disorder , scott . and it might occur to him that morgan was acting like somebody who was off their meds . and then he might remember how i was found in morgan 's room the other night and how i had access to that house every single time i visited avery . he could get suspicious . he could start putting the puzzle together . it might occur to him that maybe i tampered with morgan 's medication , which then led to a manic state , which ultimately led to morgan 's death . and how long after that do you think sonny is gon na let me live ? scott : you do n't think you 're getting a little paranoid here ? ava : well , you 're my attorney . so just keep your mouth shut , then . we just need to step back , keep cool , let nature take its course . scott : let sonny just destruct all by himself . [ scene_break ] michael : my dad ... uh , how bad is it ? nelle : obviously , i do n't know him that well . but from what i can tell , sonny 's very powerful and strong . you know , you meet him and there 's no question about who 's in charge . but lately , that 's not how he 's been . he 's drinking all the time . when you talk to him , it 's like there 's a delay . takes him a few seconds to respond . the only time he seems focused is when he 's with avery . michael : ah . well , i 'm glad he has avery to take his mind off morgan . nelle : yeah , but , michael , she 's a baby . it 's not her job to make things better for him . i do n't know all the ins and outs of your family , but i can see what 's in front of me . if sonny 's left alone to mourn and grieve for morgan , look , i 'm not sure he 's gon na make it . [ scene_break ] sonny : you should go ahead and leave , jason . jason : yeah , i think it 's better if i stay . sonny : no , no , no . look , i 'm not gon na have this conversation about why you ca n't do what i need you to do . you -- you made your decision . i accept it . let 's just -- let 's move on . jason : i made a decision to start over . sonny : right , and i honored the choice , but here 's the thing . we used to be able to be honest with each other , so i 'm gon na be honest with you right now . you could have eliminated julian [ snaps fingers ] bam , like that , and my son would still be alive . but that 's when you were the person i could count on . i ca n't count on you anymore . [ scene_break ] curtis : now , i will give you a copy of the report just as soon as i 'm done with the investigation and as soon as my client authorizes the release of information . jordan : wow . you know , you need to leave julian out of this and just do the right thing . curtis : i 'm paid to provide a service . julian jerome wants results , and you know damn well that i can get them for you . in fact , i think you hate me , because i 'm better at this than your whole department . jordan : wow . um , actually , my officers are perfectly competent . curtis : [ scoffs ] jordan : actually . curtis : right . you know damn well as soon as i walk out of here , you 're gon na call an all - hands - on meeting , tell them heads will roll if they do n't get to sonny . see , you ca n't afford to have me beat you to the punch , can you ? in fact , i think you 're threatened by me . jordan : [ chuckles ] the hell i am . curtis : mm . then what is it , huh ? what about me are you afraid of ? [ scene_break ] griffin : okay , so what do we do now ? anna : we are n't going to do anything . you 're gon na get some sleep , and i 'm gon na make some calls . griffin : are you sure all this is necessary ? i mean , these people are after claudette , not charlotte . anna : well , so says claudette . griffin : right , and so little of what claudette has said has been true . anna : you know , i think it 's unlikely that charlotte is the target . i feel that valentin is sort of obsessed with claudette . and then , by her leaving , she 's kind of drawn the danger away , thankfully . griffin : yeah , i mean , if -- if you 're right , claudette sacrificed herself for her daughter 's well - being . that makes her a far better mother than i ever gave her credit for . a far better mother than i could ever be a father . [ scene_break ] alexis : i hope you know that you have been in my thoughts and prayers , and i wanted to come by and tell you that , but i did n't think that that would help . we 've had our differences . carly : yeah , we have . [ sniffles ] alexis : but in the end , we 're both mothers , and we both love our children and we would lay down our lives for them . i ca n't comprehend what you 're going through . carly : yeah , i do n't know , either . i do n't know what comes next . i ... i mean , the thought of life without morgan terrifies me . [ sighs ] alexis : seeing you makes this real . i mean , i could lose my daughter just as easily , just as senselessly . and if this happened to you , it -- it could happen to me . curtis : pray it never does . [ scene_break ] jason : you think i failed you ? okay , maybe i did . sonny : no . my problem 's solved . i did n't do it . now my son paid the price . jason : i think you made the best decision you could , given the situation . sonny : i made the wrong decision . jason : listen to me . you adjusted . you called off the hit . the bomb should have never been planted . let me find out who screwed this up , okay ? sonny : it 's not gon na bring morgan back . it 's not gon na absolve me . jason : i 'm gon na find out the truth for you . let me do that . sonny : here 's the truth . i set this in motion . right ? it was my whole doing . carly begged me not to go , begged me to leave julian alone , and -- and i did n't do it , because i believed it was right . now carly is gone . my son is dead . michael 's gone . i got nothing left . jason : i 'm still here , sonny . sonny : who are you kidding ? i lost you a long time ago . [ scene_break ] curtis : so , if i 'm up under your skin , it 's either because you have a problem letting me win ... or you like it . [ cell phone rings ] jordan : andré . hey . uh , actually , this is , um -- it 's not really a good time right now . can i call you back ? no , no , no . everything is -- it 's fine . um ... oh , that 's great . that 's great . good . uh , thank you . i will call you back . bye . you need to go . you need to go , because you have julian 's bidding to do . right ? which you 'll mess up because [ chuckles ] you mess up everything that you touch .

[ scene_break ] maxie : i 'm not hungry . nathan : look , i know you 're still recovering , but you got to eat something . let me get you some soup or ... maxie : that 's not gon na help . nathan : maxie . we 're gon na catch that guy , okay ? your description was good . it 's only a matter of time . and i promise i am not gon na leave you alone for a minute . you 're safe . maxie : i know . and i love you for that . that 's not what i 'm worried about . nathan : worried about charlotte ? maxie : a little girl is without her mom . nathan : for now , yeah . but she 's gon na be all right . she 's gon na have to adjust to a new life , but she 's gon na be fine . you know why ? she has griffin to look out for her and she 's got anna and she 's got me and maybe even you a little bit , too . maxie : well , i ca n't help but think about claudette . [ scoffs ] as much as i hate her , i do n't want her physically harmed . and that guy who ... kidnapped me , he was no picnic . and he -- he 's gon na go after her like he came after me . and she just -- she better watch out . [ cell phone rings ] nathan : west . [ scene_break ] anna : no one is expecting you to be a father overnight . all anyone 's asking is that you 'll be a guardian . i think you can do that . griffin : yeah , but what if she wakes up and , uh , wants her mommy ? and she does n't want to listen to me 'cause i 'm just some stranger ? anna : yeah , the police are waiting to intercept claudette 's plane , and as soon as it lands , she will be back . griffin : i ca n't imagine how painful it must have been for claudette . i mean , she left charlotte here because it was the only way to protect her . anna : and she knew that you would look after her daughter . she knew that . griffin : i wish i could believe that , anna , but it 's -- it 's just not true . claudette never looked at me as someone that could protect her and charlotte . that 's what nathan was supposed to do . look , i was n't her best option . i - i ... i was the only option she had left . [ scene_break ] carly : i would like to think that julian 's never gon na show his face here again , but i know better . he 's arrogant and he does -- well , he does exactly what he wants to do , right ? he killed duke , tried to kill you , and then he insults my sweet boy . if you happen to be here , do n't get in the way . i need to go to my office . i have no idea what i 'm gon na do there , but i 'm gon na -- alexis : carly . i tried to stop julian . he 's still standing , and that fight has brought me nothing but misery since . carly : i 'm already miserable . and i could use a fight . [ scene_break ] michael : i know how my father thinks . i know how the business works . and i know why he did what he did . if i was in his position and i had an enemy walking free , insulting me , jeopardizing my authority , i ca n't say i would n't do the same thing . nelle : well , then i do n't understand . michael : why i ca n't forgive him ? or maybe i can , some day . but right now , all i can think about is my little brother . my little brother who loved penguins ... and baseball , popcorn movies . [ exhales sharply ] who could make my mom laugh , no matter how furious she was . who would wake up the morning of the first snow and run outside in his pajamas and try and catch snowflakes on his tongue . [ clicks tongue ] it was always the two of us . and now he 's gone because of my dad . [ sighs ] i - i do n't know how i can forgive that . nelle : michael , i 'm not saying that you have to forgive him . but somebody that you love is in pain , just as you are . and if you think there 's anything that 's worth holding onto in your relationship with your father , then ... think twice about abandoning him . [ cell phone rings ] michael : sorry . one second . hello ? alexis : michael , it 's alexis . michael : what 's going on ? alexis : your mom 's at the metro court , and i think she could use some support . michael : okay , thank you for letting me know .

[ cellphone rings ] excuse me , one second . this is work calling . neil : go ahead . devon : all right . this is devon . what 's up ? are you serious ? charlie : dad drove 8 hours yesterday . he does n't need you giving him crap why mom did n't read your stupid paper . cane : guys , guys . mattie : shut up , charlie . nobody asked you ! charlie : okay , well , i 'm telling you -- mattie : i 'm telling you , dad 's hiding something ! cane : stop it , stop it , stop it , stop it ! your mother does n't want you arguing like this , stop it ! mattie : well , if you 'd just tell us the truth . cane : i 'm not lying to you , okay ? i just have n't told you everything , all right ? there 's some things that just need to stay private between your mum and i , all right ? charlie : personal stuff . cane : right . charlie : about your relationship . i get it . especially after what shauna and i went through , i mean , i understand how tough long - distance relationships are . cane : yeah . yeah , they are . charlie : i 'm just glad you and mom figured out a way to work out yours . cane : yeah . victoria : is everything okay ? i got your text . sharon : i thought we called a moratorium on these charity meetings . phyllis : that was before nikki decided to change the rules of the game . victoria : if this about her standing up for dad ... phyllis : this about her not being able to keep her mouth shut . victoria : [ scoffs ] that 's really good , coming from you . phyllis : what i did does not compare to nikki telling your brother that she killed j.t . sharon : what ? phyllis : so much for all of us being in this together . nikki : we stopped being on the same team when you started to promote the lie that victor killed j.t . sharon : nick knows ? everything ? victoria : only that mom and i were involved in j.t . 's death . she never said a word about you or phyllis . phyllis : i should have known you knew . victoria : well , mom confided in me yesterday . phyllis : yeah , it 's typical newmans . you circle the wagons and the hell with the rest of us . nikki : victoria just told you , i never mentioned you or sharon . victoria : mom told nick that j.t . was attacking me and that she was only trying to protect me . sharon : he must have asked why you did n't go to the police . what did you tell him ? nikki : i told him that victoria and i were worried that the police would n't believe us , so we took j.t . to the park and buried him . sharon : why ? after we worked so hard to cover everything up . why tell nick now ? nikki : because the murder weapon showed up in my house ! sharon : [ gasps ] oh , my god ! phyllis : what ? what are you talking about ? how would that happen ? nikki : i do n't know . but it was sitting in front of the fireplace when nicholas brought me home the other night . victoria : mom was terrified . nikki : [ scoffs ] i was more than terrified , and nicholas could see that something was very wrong , so i just -- i had to tell him the truth . phyllis : you picked a hell of a time to be honest . nikki : i did n't have a choice . phyllis : there 's always a choice . and you just made the wrong one . now , the question is -- what do we do now ? - [ narrator ] this is the moisturizer fen : hey ! sorry it took me so long to get here . i had to find someone at the club to cover my shift . devon : oh , uh , i do n't think you 're gon na have to be worrying about that for too much longer , fen . fen : are you -- are you firing me ? devon : no , i 'm not firing you . i just -- i do n't think you 're gon na have to supplement your income by waiting tables . fen : why not ? devon : so , the streaming numbers for your first song have come back . ana : and ? devon : and they are beyond better than what we projected . ana : [ laughs ] devon : it 's actually trending in certain territories . ana : shut up ! devon : no joke . no joke . fen : oh , my god . this is -- oh , my god ! this is incredible ! devon : hey , hey , hey ! ana : [ laughs ] fen : i ca n't believe this . um ... neil : ah , yeah . yeah , yeah , yeah . fen : thank you . neil : congrats . fen : thanks . ana : this calls for a celebration ! devon : yeah , absolutely . there 's champagne in the bar fridge , if you guys want . ana : [ giggles ] neil : hey . come here . devon : yo . neil : um ... you know this is , uh -- this is great news . devon : but ? neil : i do n't want you to forget what happened with tessa 's song . we thought it was gon na be number one with a bullet . devon : i know , and then we found out that she stole the lyrics from mariah . neil : mm - hmm . just remember -- keep everything on the up - and - up with this mystery songwriter . would n't want another fiasco like that . devon : neither would i , trust me . but ana says she knows the guy and that he 's legit , so i trust her . neil : okay , look , i know how much creative juice you put into this song . i would n't want it all to be for nothing . devon : i appreciate that , but it 's all good , trust me . phyllis : are you sure it is the same one ? sharon : what do you think ? victoria : it could be a copy . sharon : but it 's identical to yours ? victoria : yes . sharon : i thought you threw it in the lake . phyllis : i did . sharon : then how did it end up here ? phyllis : i do n't know , sharon , maybe by magic . victoria : look , it could be easy enough for someone to find one that looked like mine . phyllis : it does n't matter if it 's the same one that nikki hit j.t . with or if it 's a copy . someone knows it was used to kill him . nikki : maybe it was tessa . or mariah . sharon : tessa only knows that j.t . was killed in victoria 's house . she does n't how he was killed . phyllis : mariah knows . she could have told her . sharon : mariah would n't do that . phyllis : we do n't know that . sharon : well , i know that . you know what i think happened ? you screwed up . someone saw you get rid of that poker . phyllis : oh , that 's bull . sharon : it 's not bull , not if it 's true . phyllis : well , it 's not . victoria : okay . stop ! please . whoever did this -- the poker , the shirt , the gun at the stables , j.t . 's bloody clothes showing up in my mom 's bed -- they 're trying to rattle us . nikki : or to get us to turn on each other . phyllis : except it 's not just us anymore . nikki : nicholas is not gon na tell anybody . phyllis : no , you know what he 's gon na do ? he 's gon na lead the charge to prove that victor is innocent . he 's gon na shout it from the rooftops in spite of all the evidence . he is positive that someone else killed j.t . nikki : well , so what ? people will just think he 's defending his father . phyllis : people might , but the police are gon na start wondering what he knows . i ca n't even talk to him without tipping him off that i 'm involved with this . it 's bad enough trying to keep as secret like this . he now has to keep what he knows from me . it 's fantastic for the relationship . victoria : you 're getting worked up for absolutely no reason , phyllis . you 're in a rebound relationship . everybody knows those never work out anyway . phyllis : you know , i think you 're confusing us with you and billy . victoria : even if billy and i do get back together , at least it wo n't be because we were dumped for cheating with each other . phyllis : nick and i are solid . victoria : oh , really ? are you sure about that ? i would n't be , especially after that little stunt that you pulled at j.t . 's memorial . phyllis : i told reed that his dad was abusing you because i was afraid nikki was gon na tell everyone that we were involved in killing j.t . reasonable fear , it turns out . nikki : you know what , i 'm glad i told nicholas because now he can help victoria and me with this new development . sharon : how ? victoria : i 'm not sure yet , but , um , you and phyllis do n't have to worry about that . i 've got to get going . nikki : i 'll walk you out . phyllis : well , i do n't know about you , but ... that does n't work for me . your insurance rates skyrocket after a scratch so small phyllis : it 's not really a trick question . are you willing to let victoria and nikki tell you what to do ? sharon : it 's not like we have a choice . phyllis : well , nikki really has n't given us one . nikki : this is n't the mob , phyllis . phyllis : did i not warn you that this how things work ? the newmans stick together , the hell with the rest of us . sharon : i do n't think that 's what nikki and victoria are doing . phyllis : okay , so what are they teaching you in these psych classes ? because they 're hanging us out to dry . while driving a wedge between nick and me . sharon : we learned about paranoia . nikki : [ scoffs ] you do n't need us to drive a wedge between you and nicholas . you 're doing it all by yourself . phyllis : do you see what 's happening ? now that victor has been charged with murder , she is backing out of the pact we had to protect one another . sharon : nikki would n't do that . phyllis : dr. clueless better be right here . because , i 'll tell you something , no matter what happens , i 'm not going down for this . nikki : you 're not buying any of that nonsense , are you ? sharon : she 's not the one who broke our agreement . and , like i said , i have to rust you . for now . fen : you know , your dad seemed pretty stressed out . devon : no , he just likes to make sure that all the i 's are dotted and t 's are crossed , that 's all . ana : that 's not how it works anymore . iron - clad contracts ? artists have more power than they used to . they want to be free to do their own thing . devon : i know all of that , and i explained that to him and told him that this songwriter is worth taking the risk on because i want him to write fen 's entire album . fen : sweet . devon : yeah . ana : that may be a problem . devon : why would that be a problem ? fen : yeah , why -- why would that be a problem ? ana : my friend says no more songs until he gets paid for the first one . devon : fen 's song has only been out for a few days . how are we gon na know what to pay him ? the figures are promising , but that does n't translate to money right now . and even when we do start making money , we have to recoup our costs before anybody makes a profit . ana : you could do an advance against projected earnings . it 's not unheard of . devon : no , not for proven artists . ana : do you want this guy or not , devon ? devon : what do you mean , do i want him or not ? are you his agent ? ana : i 'm just looking out for his interest , and yours . this songwriter 's gon na be hot . either you want a piece of the action , or you don't . devon : okay , well , of course i do . uh , what if we do a buy - out , and we own the song outright ? he forfeits any future profits . ana : i think that 'll work . devon : sweet . fen : what ? no ! that -- that 's stupid ! i mean , why would your friend do something like that ? wo n't he make way less money that way ? devon : i mean , probably , but that 's his call . and at least he 'll make something , whether the song 's a hit or not . ana : you 're right . it is his call , and my friend told me he wants his money now . and to get it to him however i could . devon : is your friend in some kind of trouble , or something ? ana : no . nothing like that . he just wants to be paid . devon : okay . well , great . in that case , i will draw up the paperwork and get it to him in a couple days . ana : my friend will be very happy to hear that . neil : good to see you again . cane : hey . you too , man . [ sighs ] i did n't know you were back in town . neil : yeah , i wanted to see how everybody was doing , you know ? cane : well , i 'm glad you did , man because the kids miss you . neil : i miss them , too . cane : yeah . neil : how are they ? cane : they 're good . busy , but they 're good . charlie 's in the middle of basketball season , mattie 's working on the high school yearbook . neil : yeah . cane : yeah . neil : yeah , i heard . so , what about -- what about sam ? cane : sam 's , uh , good . you know , he 's getting big . he was crawling , now he 's walking . you know , it goes by in the blink of an eye . neil : who you telling ? it goes by fast . cane : [ sighs ] too fast . i know it 's killing lily she 's missing so much , you know ? neil : hey , i , uh -- i spoke to lily after your last visit . she said things did n't go so well . cane : yeah . yeah , it -- that was my fault . you know ? i miss her so much . i kind of went up there with unrealistic expectations , and it was , like , tough on her . neil : i understand . she knows how difficult it is for you , too . cane : yeah , yeah , but she 's the one , you know , who 's locked up in prison away from her family , and i should just -- i should be more understanding . you know ? neil : cane . i do n't know what happened , but you 're entitled to your feelings , too , man . cane : i really appreciate you saying that , neil . thank you . neil : yeah , it 's the reason why i wanted to meet with you , actually . i just want you to know i 'm here to help you , you know , while you and lily are separated , even if it 's just listening , i 'm here . hey . cane . cane : yeah ? neil : you okay ? cane : yeah , man , i 'm cool . yeah . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . nikki : it 's bad enough i have to deal with phyllis . now you 're threatening me ? sharon : i 'm just keeping my options open . look , you told nick that you murdered j.t . without consulting any of us first . why should n't i reserve the right to protect myself ? nikki : because if we do n't stick together , the police are going to find out exactly what happened to j.t . sharon : then why did you involve nick in this at all ? nikki : if i had n't had told him the truth , he would have kept digging and digging until he learned everything . i was trying to protect you and phyllis . sharon : [ sighs ] i know . okay , i 'm sorry . [ sighs ] you know , just the four of us keeping this secret , it 's really starting to wear on me . nikki : yeah , and i was really starting to enjoy our little get - togethers here . sharon : must be unnerving , knowing that the person who 's taunting us can get onto the property . nikki : nicholas made sure that there 's always somebody home with me , and he doubled security . sharon : sounds like victor . nikki : he was very much his father that day when he found out how terrified i was . sharon : i 'm glad you feel safe . nikki : yeah , well , if all else fails , i have my gun . sharon : [ sighs ] you could always come and stay at my house . nikki : thanks for the offer , but i really need to be in my own house . it 's the best chance i have of finding out whoever is tormenting us , of catching them in the act . cane : you know , things have n't been easy for me and lily since she went to prison , but lately , it 's , uh ... neil : lately what ? go ahead . get it said . cane : last week , she sent me this letter , and she said it 's easy for her now to express her feelings in writing . neil : yeah , i can understand that . not a whole lot of privacy when she 's on the phone . cane : that 's what she said . you know , but she also said some other things . neil : like what ? cane : well , that i do n't see face to face enough , so i drop everything , and i go up and i see her , and ... neil : good for you . i 'm sure she appreciates that . cane : eh , i 'm not so sure about that . you know , all she wanted to do , pretty much , was talk about this job she had , and then she cuts our visit short . she has to go and teach her first class . neil : hey . you got to know how important this position is to her . cane : i do . it 's just -- it feels like her prison life is becoming more important than her life for the kids and me , you know ? neil : oh , come on , man . that 's absolutely crazy . she 's just trying to survive . cane : okay , but how am i supposed to reach when she says that `` she feels like she 's losing who she was . `` what am i meant to do ? neil : you help remember . you 're the one who said it yourself , man . i mean , come on . she 's lost everything , right ? cane : yeah , you 're right . i 'm being selfish , are n't i ? neil : hey . i know you 're doing the best job you can to hold this family together , but you 've got to be prepared to support lily , whoever she is , when she gets out of prison . now , are you gon na be able to do that ? cane : of course . you know , lily and the kids are everything to me . billy : so , have you talked to reed since he got back to school ? victoria : he seems to be getting back to his normal life . i think it 's gon na take him a little while to process learning about j.t . 's abuse , but .. i helped him . at least i hope i did . billy : you 're an amazing mom , and reed is lucky that you 're his . victoria : i could n't have heped him put the pieces of his life back together without you . billy : i do have an experience with that . usually , after i 've blown up my own life . victoria : i just wish that i could erase this whole past year and start fresh . billy : well , to new beginnings . for both of us . phyllis : how sweet is this . billy : what do you want , phyllis ? victoria : i 'm sure whatever it is can wait till after we 're done with lunch . phyllis : oh ! because whatever you and billy are discussing is more important than anything else ? billy : you know what , let 's just deal with this , okay ? you 're upset with phyllis because she told reed about j.t . 's abuse , and rightfully so . phyllis : i thought i explained to you that i was trying to help . victoria : you two discussed this ? phyllis : yeah . we did discuss this . i 'm surprised that you did n't tell her about our talk . i guess you 're not as close as i thought . victoria : maybe you should focus on your relationship with nick . phyllis : nick and i are solid . is n't that right , billy ? is n't that what i told you when you wanted us to get back together ? victoria : what ? phyllis : yeah . right before he went to get back together with you . but do n't worry -- do n't worry , i turned him down flat . he 's all yours . bye . have a beautiful lunch . a migraine hope billy : phyllis is just trying to stir up trouble . victoria : is it true ? billy : vick , you 're the only one that i want to be with . victoria : it 's a simple question , billy . did you ask phyllis to get back together ? billy : yes , but , listen , it 's -- no , vick , come on , stop . victoria : i 'm not interested . billy : i can explain . victoria . cane : hey , uh , victoria . victoria : the last thing i want is sympathy from you . cane : okay , uh , i was n't gon na give you any sympathy . victoria : what do you want ? cane : um , i think i left my scarf at your house . i was just wondering if you 'd seen it . that 's all . victoria : yeah , actually , i did see one . i was wondering who that belonged to . cane : that 's great . well , uh , when 's a good time for me to come by and pick it up ? victoria : i 'm headed home now . cane : okay . all right . well , i 'll take care of the check , and i 'll follow you , okay ? victoria : fine . cane : okay . billy : what the hell was that all about ? phyllis : i thought full disclosure was your thing . billy : oh , i get it . you 're jealous . ana : i ca n't stay long . i have to get to work . fen : okay , then i 'll get right to it . why are you in such a hurry to get paid for your song ? ana : do you know how much i make as devon 's assistant ? fen : you live rent - free , you have no student debt . if you were in any financial trouble , i know that your billionaire brother would bail you out , so ... you know , what gives ? ana : i have my reasons , okay ? fen : reasons that you are not going to share with me . ana : they 're personal . fen : well ... look , i thought i was your friend . ana : you are my friend . fen : then just talk to me . ana : i need you to trust me . fen : okay . but i -- i do n't understand why it 's so important to keep this secret . and , eventually , you 're gon na have to tell devon that you wrote this song . ana : yeah . eventually . devon : hey , michael , it 's devon . how you doin ' , man ? i 'm good . i 'm actually just calling because i need you to do some research for me . can you , uh , find out the name of the person who set up an llc ? it 's the guy who wrote finn 's song . victoria : hannah must have put it somewhere . ow ! damn it . cane : you okay ? victoria : yeah , i 'm fine . i 'm sorry . cane : looks like your finger got the worst of that . i mean , well , your finger , and billy . victoria : billy deserved it . cane : yeah . yeah , you were pretty upset with him at the club . so , uh , what did he do now ? victoria : [ sighs ] cane : i 'm sorry , it 's none of my business . victoria : no . no , no , no . cane : no , no , no , it 's not my business . victoria : no , it 's fine . [ sighs ] in typical billy fashion , he has ... managed to sabotage his chance for happiness . cane : oh . victoria : things were going really well between us . he 's been there for me and the kids through all the stuff with my mom and reed and my dad being in jail , and i just realized what a ... [ sighs ] an amazing dad and husband he could be , and ... and that , you know , that we were a great family , and i thought that maybe we would have a chance to -- to try again , and then i found out that ... cane : what ? what 'd you find out ? victoria : billy only turned to me because phyllis turned him down . cane : okay . victoria : okay . do you have any anti - billy comebacks ? cane : no . hey , i 'm in no position to judge , you know ? with all the problems i 've got with ... [ chuckles ] do n't worry about it . victoria : no , come on . i gave you all of my ugly details . i saw you with neil earlier . cane : neil asked me to confide in him , and then the moment i opened up by telling him how difficult it is for me to deal with lily being in prison , he just -- look , i know he 's concerned about his daughter , okay ? it 's just sometimes ... you just feel like you 're out here by yourself . you know what i mean ? victoria : i do know what you mean . cane : anyway . victoria : oh ! ha ! cane : [ laughs ] victoria : here it is . cane : there it is . well , uh , thank you . victoria : sure . cane : okay . all right , well , uh ... see you later , okay ? victoria : cane , wait . billy : you just ca n't help yourself . you see two people happy , and you have to blow it up . even if one of them is you . phyllis : i think i did victoria a favor . i mean , everything that she 's been through with j.t . , she should know where your head is . where your heart is . billy : your concern is touching , phyllis . phyllis : i do n't think she should have false expectations . that 's an easy trap to fall into with you . billy : god , i ca n't believe i did n't see the real you . phyllis : you knew exactly who i was . billy : no . i didn't . i do now . it 's very , very clear to me . you know what i see ? that i hurt jack for absolutely no reason . phyllis : if that 's how you feel , then why did you want to get back together with me ? billy : one of those bad impulses that i 'm working on not giving into . trust me , it 'll never happen again . because i 've realized that victoria was , is , and always will be the love of my life . victoria : it 's not easy trying to do your job and take care of your kids and keep your family together . cane : yeah , well , at least i have mattie and charlie . victoria : yeah , but , ultimately , everything 's on you . cane : nobody cares how you get it done . victoria : or about your emotional needs . cane : you start to think they never will . victoria : you wonder how long you can go on giving so much . cane : getting so little back . victoria : nothing , some days . cane : it 's most days , is n't it ? victoria : it makes you just want to say ... to hell with it . [ thud ] nikki : hello ? [ thud ] is someone there ? who 's there ? | neil returns home for a visitto check on his family he is happy to hear about devon 's success with fen 's hit song but is worried that the songwriter wanting to remain secret could cause the company problems like they had with tessa . devon tells neil he trusts ana and is sure that things will turn out well with the songwriter . ana agrees to let devon buy the song so that lp can own the rights to it which leaves devon wondering why the songwriter needs money so quickly . fen wonders if ana is in trouble because she just agreed to sell her song for less money then it would be worth if she woulkd have waited to see the song make a profit . ana assures fen she is n't in any trouble and she will tell devon she wrote the song but she ca n't do it now . nikki and victoria tell phyllis and sharon that nikki told nick the truth but she did n't mention that they were involved in helping them bury the body . billy and victoria decide to have lunch but since phyllis is in a bad mood she walks over to billy and victoria 's table and tells victoria that billy recently asked her to get back togeth but she told him no so victoria gets angry slaps billy and storms off . billy tells phyllis that she is so bitter she ca n't stand to see anyone happy but he wil fight to be with victoria because he has realized that she is the love of his life . cane goes to victoiria 's house to pick up a scarf he left there and he tals to her about lily and how hard its been for him having to do everything while she is gone . victoria tells him that she understands how he can feel alone because she has felt the same way since jt died and everything that is happening now . cane and victoria continue to talk about how they feel and the talking leads to a kiss . nikki arrives home and hears a noise and she asks who is there but when she gets no answer and sees a shadow she does n't asks again and just shoots at the shadow . | <s>[INST] [ previously_on ] ana : i want the fans to believe in your talent as much as i do . fen : but what about yours ?

[ clears throat ] neil : what do you mean , you do n't know ? you do n't know who wrote the new release ? devon : no , i don't . the guy wants to keep his identity a secret , be the next banksy of music . thinks it makes him cool . neil : you do know that could be a problem . to most , he 's phil mickelson ... additional sponsorship devon : so , the songwriter is a friend of ana 's , and she 's the only one who 's been in contact with him . neil : so you know him well ? ana : oh , we hung out in college , kept it touch after . i like going to clubs , listening to music . so does he . neil : uh - huh , so y ' all are close . ana : we share a love of music . neil : but you ca n't convince him to sign a contract with lp ? devon : he wo n't even let her tell us his name . neil : well , i -- i do n't understand . why all the secrecy ? ana : he wants to keep a low profile . hates the spotlight and the whole `` celebrity `` thing . neil : it must be for a reason . i mean , was he burned by a producer or a recording company ? ana : i get the feeling it 's personal . i do n't want to push him . neil : what if we did ? what if we told him that we ca n't move forward unless he tells us who he is ? ana : he 'll walk . neil : and pass up this huge opportunity ? ana : this is n't about money or fame to him . neil : okay , yo , you know how i do business . i do n't like this . devon : i know , i do n't like it , either , but i 'm afraid if we do push him , we 're gon na lose him , and he 's too good to let that happen . neil : yeah , well , if we keep getting songs like , uh , the one i just heard , as sweet as it is ... devon : right ? neil : risk will pay off . devon : i agree . so i think we can move forward without a contract . neil : for now . devon : yeah . exactly . neil : okay , um , how 's everything else in your life ? devon : everything else is really good , actually , thanks to this one right here and to good ol ' nate . neil : yeah . i knew i could count on you . devon : thank you , by the way , for bringing ana back to town . neil : well , with lily and me gone , you know , i figured you could use some family around . devon : yeah , she 's been -- she 's been helping me get my head on straight , and i 'm seeing a therapist now , i 'm sleeping regularly , and i 'm doing everything i have to do to get my life back on track . neil : yeah ? glad to hear it . devon : yeah . so my work life is good , my personal life is good . that means you do n't have to worry about me anymore . neil : okay , do n't go gettin ' crazy on me , man . you know it 's a father 's job to worry about his kids . devon : i understand that , but you need to focus on lily because that 's who really needs you . neil : you know , now that lily is settled in the new prison , i 'm gon na be spending my time between lakewood and genoa city . devon : well , good . that 's great . i always love having you here , but just make sure you 're not abandoning her because you 're worried about me . neil : hey , hey , hey . it 's all good . devon : okay .

's death . she never said a word about you or phyllis . phyllis : i should have known you knew . victoria : well , mom confided in me yesterday . phyllis : yeah , it 's typical newmans . you circle the wagons and the hell with the rest of us . nikki : victoria just told you , i never mentioned you or sharon . victoria : mom told nick that j.t . was attacking me and that she was only trying to protect me . sharon : he must have asked why you did n't go to the police . what did you tell him ? nikki : i told him that victoria and i were worried that the police would n't believe us , so we took j.t . to the park and buried him . sharon : why ? after we worked so hard to cover everything up . why tell nick now ? nikki : because the murder weapon showed up in my house ! sharon : [ gasps ] oh , my god ! phyllis : what ? what are you talking about ? how would that happen ? nikki : i do n't know . but it was sitting in front of the fireplace when nicholas brought me home the other night . victoria : mom was terrified . nikki : [ scoffs ] i was more than terrified , and nicholas could see that something was very wrong , so i just -- i had to tell him the truth . phyllis : you picked a hell of a time to be honest . nikki : i did n't have a choice . phyllis : there 's always a choice . and you just made the wrong one . now , the question is -- what do we do now ? - [ narrator ] this is the moisturizer fen : hey ! sorry it took me so long to get here . i had to find someone at the club to cover my shift . devon : oh , uh , i do n't think you 're gon na have to be worrying about that for too much longer , fen . fen : are you -- are you firing me ? devon : no , i 'm not firing you . i just -- i do n't think you 're gon na have to supplement your income by waiting tables . fen : why not ? devon : so , the streaming numbers for your first song have come back . ana : and ? devon : and they are beyond better than what we projected . ana : [ laughs ] devon : it 's actually trending in certain territories . ana : shut up ! devon : no joke . no joke . fen : oh , my god . this is -- oh , my god ! this is incredible ! devon : hey , hey , hey ! ana : [ laughs ] fen : i ca n't believe this . um ... neil : ah , yeah . yeah , yeah , yeah . fen : thank you . neil : congrats . fen : thanks . ana : this calls for a celebration ! devon : yeah , absolutely . there 's champagne in the bar fridge , if you guys want . ana : [ giggles ] neil : hey . come here . devon : yo . neil : um ... you know this is , uh -- this is great news . devon : but ? neil : i do n't want you to forget what happened with tessa 's song . we thought it was gon na be number one with a bullet . devon : i know , and then we found out that she stole the lyrics from mariah . neil : mm - hmm . just remember -- keep everything on the up - and - up with this mystery songwriter . would n't want another fiasco like that . devon : neither would i , trust me . but ana says she knows the guy and that he 's legit , so i trust her . neil : okay , look , i know how much creative juice you put into this song . i would n't want it all to be for nothing . devon : i appreciate that , but it 's all good , trust me . phyllis : are you sure it is the same one ? sharon : what do you think ? victoria : it could be a copy . sharon : but it 's identical to yours ? victoria : yes . sharon : i thought you threw it in the lake . phyllis : i did . sharon : then how did it end up here ? phyllis : i do n't know , sharon , maybe by magic . victoria : look , it could be easy enough for someone to find one that looked like mine . phyllis : it does n't matter if it 's the same one that nikki hit j.t . with or if it 's a copy . someone knows it was used to kill him . nikki : maybe it was tessa . or mariah . sharon : tessa only knows that j.t . was killed in victoria 's house . she does n't how he was killed . phyllis : mariah knows . she could have told her . sharon : mariah would n't do that . phyllis : we do n't know that . sharon : well , i know that . you know what i think happened ? you screwed up . someone saw you get rid of that poker . phyllis : oh , that 's bull . sharon : it 's not bull , not if it 's true . phyllis : well , it 's not . victoria : okay . stop ! please . whoever did this -- the poker , the shirt , the gun at the stables , j.t . 's bloody clothes showing up in my mom 's bed -- they 're trying to rattle us . nikki : or to get us to turn on each other . phyllis : except it 's not just us anymore . nikki : nicholas is not gon na tell anybody . phyllis : no , you know what he 's gon na do ? he 's gon na lead the charge to prove that victor is innocent . he 's gon na shout it from the rooftops in spite of all the evidence . he is positive that someone else killed j.t . nikki : well , so what ? people will just think he 's defending his father . phyllis : people might , but the police are gon na start wondering what he knows . i ca n't even talk to him without tipping him off that i 'm involved with this . it 's bad enough trying to keep as secret like this . he now has to keep what he knows from me . it 's fantastic for the relationship . victoria : you 're getting worked up for absolutely no reason , phyllis . you 're in a rebound relationship . everybody knows those never work out anyway . phyllis : you know , i think you 're confusing us with you and billy . victoria : even if billy and i do get back together , at least it wo n't be because we were dumped for cheating with each other . phyllis : nick and i are solid . victoria : oh , really ? are you sure about that ? i would n't be , especially after that little stunt that you pulled at j.t . 's memorial . phyllis : i told reed that his dad was abusing you because i was afraid nikki was gon na tell everyone that we were involved in killing j.t . reasonable fear , it turns out . nikki : you know what , i 'm glad i told nicholas because now he can help victoria and me with this new development . sharon : how ? victoria : i 'm not sure yet , but , um , you and phyllis do n't have to worry about that . i 've got to get going . nikki : i 'll walk you out . phyllis : well , i do n't know about you , but ... that does n't work for me . your insurance rates skyrocket after a scratch so small phyllis : it 's not really a trick question . are you willing to let victoria and nikki tell you what to do ? sharon : it 's not like we have a choice . phyllis : well , nikki really has n't given us one . nikki : this is n't the mob , phyllis . phyllis : did i not warn you that this how things work ? the newmans stick together , the hell with the rest of us . sharon : i do n't think that 's what nikki and victoria are doing . phyllis : okay , so what are they teaching you in these psych classes ? because they 're hanging us out to dry . while driving a wedge between nick and me . sharon : we learned about paranoia . nikki : [ scoffs ] you do n't need us to drive a wedge between you and nicholas . you 're doing it all by yourself . phyllis : do you see what 's happening ? now that victor has been charged with murder , she is backing out of the pact we had to protect one another . sharon : nikki would n't do that . phyllis : dr. clueless better be right here . because , i 'll tell you something , no matter what happens , i 'm not going down for this . nikki : you 're not buying any of that nonsense , are you ? sharon : she 's not the one who broke our agreement . and , like i said , i have to rust you . for now . fen : you know , your dad seemed pretty stressed out . devon : no , he just likes to make sure that all the i 's are dotted and t 's are crossed , that 's all . ana : that 's not how it works anymore . iron - clad contracts ? artists have more power than they used to . they want to be free to do their own thing . devon : i know all of that , and i explained that to him and told him that this songwriter is worth taking the risk on because i want him to write fen 's entire album . fen : sweet . devon : yeah . ana : that may be a problem . devon : why would that be a problem ? fen : yeah , why -- why would that be a problem ? ana : my friend says no more songs until he gets paid for the first one . devon : fen 's song has only been out for a few days . how are we gon na know what to pay him ? the figures are promising , but that does n't translate to money right now . and even when we do start making money , we have to recoup our costs before anybody makes a profit . ana : you could do an advance against projected earnings . it 's not unheard of . devon : no , not for proven artists . ana : do you want this guy or not , devon ? devon : what do you mean , do i want him or not ? are you his agent ? ana : i 'm just looking out for his interest , and yours . this songwriter 's gon na be hot . either you want a piece of the action , or you don't . devon : okay , well , of course i do . uh , what if we do a buy - out , and we own the song outright ? he forfeits any future profits . ana : i think that 'll work . devon : sweet . fen : what ? no ! that -- that 's stupid ! i mean , why would your friend do something like that ? wo n't he make way less money that way ? devon : i mean , probably , but that 's his call . and at least he 'll make something , whether the song 's a hit or not . ana : you 're right . it is his call , and my friend told me he wants his money now . and to get it to him however i could . devon : is your friend in some kind of trouble , or something ? ana : no . nothing like that . he just wants to be paid . devon : okay . well , great . in that case , i will draw up the paperwork and get it to him in a couple days . ana : my friend will be very happy to hear that . neil : good to see you again . cane : hey . you too , man .

's abuse , and rightfully so . phyllis : i thought i explained to you that i was trying to help . victoria : you two discussed this ? phyllis : yeah . we did discuss this . i 'm surprised that you did n't tell her about our talk . i guess you 're not as close as i thought . victoria : maybe you should focus on your relationship with nick . phyllis : nick and i are solid . is n't that right , billy ? is n't that what i told you when you wanted us to get back together ? victoria : what ? phyllis : yeah . right before he went to get back together with you . but do n't worry -- do n't worry , i turned him down flat . he 's all yours . bye . have a beautiful lunch . a migraine hope billy : phyllis is just trying to stir up trouble . victoria : is it true ? billy : vick , you 're the only one that i want to be with . victoria : it 's a simple question , billy . did you ask phyllis to get back together ? billy : yes , but , listen , it 's -- no , vick , come on , stop . victoria : i 'm not interested . billy : i can explain . victoria . cane : hey , uh , victoria . victoria : the last thing i want is sympathy from you . cane : okay , uh , i was n't gon na give you any sympathy . victoria : what do you want ? cane : um , i think i left my scarf at your house . i was just wondering if you 'd seen it . that 's all . victoria : yeah , actually , i did see one . i was wondering who that belonged to . cane : that 's great . well , uh , when 's a good time for me to come by and pick it up ? victoria : i 'm headed home now . cane : okay . all right . well , i 'll take care of the check , and i 'll follow you , okay ? victoria : fine . cane : okay . billy : what the hell was that all about ? phyllis : i thought full disclosure was your thing . billy : oh , i get it . you 're jealous . ana : i ca n't stay long . i have to get to work . fen : okay , then i 'll get right to it . why are you in such a hurry to get paid for your song ? ana : do you know how much i make as devon 's assistant ? fen : you live rent - free , you have no student debt . if you were in any financial trouble , i know that your billionaire brother would bail you out , so ... you know , what gives ? ana : i have my reasons , okay ? fen : reasons that you are not going to share with me . ana : they 're personal . fen : well ... look , i thought i was your friend . ana : you are my friend . fen : then just talk to me . ana : i need you to trust me . fen : okay . but i -- i do n't understand why it 's so important to keep this secret . and , eventually , you 're gon na have to tell devon that you wrote this song . ana : yeah . eventually . devon : hey , michael , it 's devon . how you doin ' , man ? i 'm good . i 'm actually just calling because i need you to do some research for me . can you , uh , find out the name of the person who set up an llc ? it 's the guy who wrote finn 's song . victoria : hannah must have put it somewhere . ow ! damn it . cane : you okay ? victoria : yeah , i 'm fine . i 'm sorry . cane : looks like your finger got the worst of that . i mean , well , your finger , and billy . victoria : billy deserved it . cane : yeah . yeah , you were pretty upset with him at the club . so , uh , what did he do now ? victoria : [ sighs ] cane : i 'm sorry , it 's none of my business . victoria : no . no , no , no . cane : no , no , no , it 's not my business . victoria : no , it 's fine . [ sighs ] in typical billy fashion , he has ... managed to sabotage his chance for happiness . cane : oh . victoria : things were going really well between us . he 's been there for me and the kids through all the stuff with my mom and reed and my dad being in jail , and i just realized what a ... [ sighs ] an amazing dad and husband he could be , and ... and that , you know , that we were a great family , and i thought that maybe we would have a chance to -- to try again , and then i found out that ... cane : what ? what 'd you find out ? victoria : billy only turned to me because phyllis turned him down . cane : okay . victoria : okay . do you have any anti - billy comebacks ? cane : no . hey , i 'm in no position to judge , you know ? with all the problems i 've got with ... [ chuckles ] do n't worry about it . victoria : no , come on . i gave you all of my ugly details . i saw you with neil earlier . cane : neil asked me to confide in him , and then the moment i opened up by telling him how difficult it is for me to deal with lily being in prison , he just -- look , i know he 's concerned about his daughter , okay ? it 's just sometimes ... you just feel like you 're out here by yourself . you know what i mean ? victoria : i do know what you mean . cane : anyway . victoria : oh ! ha ! cane : [ laughs ] victoria : here it is . cane : there it is . well , uh , thank you . victoria : sure . cane : okay . all right , well , uh ... see you later , okay ? victoria : cane , wait . billy : you just ca n't help yourself . you see two people happy , and you have to blow it up . even if one of them is you . phyllis : i think i did victoria a favor . i mean , everything that she 's been through with j.t . , she should know where your head is . where your heart is . billy : your concern is touching , phyllis . phyllis : i do n't think she should have false expectations . that 's an easy trap to fall into with you . billy : god , i ca n't believe i did n't see the real you . phyllis : you knew exactly who i was . billy : no . i didn't . i do now . it 's very , very clear to me . you know what i see ? that i hurt jack for absolutely no reason . phyllis : if that 's how you feel , then why did you want to get back together with me ? billy : one of those bad impulses that i 'm working on not giving into . trust me , it 'll never happen again . because i 've realized that victoria was , is , and always will be the love of my life . victoria : it 's not easy trying to do your job and take care of your kids and keep your family together . cane : yeah , well , at least i have mattie and charlie . victoria : yeah , but , ultimately , everything 's on you . cane : nobody cares how you get it done . victoria : or about your emotional needs . cane : you start to think they never will . victoria : you wonder how long you can go on giving so much . cane : getting so little back . victoria : nothing , some days . cane : it 's most days , is n't it ? victoria : it makes you just want to say ... to hell with it .

[ scene_break ] carly : all right , tell me again -- when was the last time you saw your brother ? jax : a little over a year ago . when i went to london on business , jerry was there . he seemed like he was doing really well , even insisted on picking up the tab . then i did n't hear from him again until last november when he called me for help . carly : the siberia call ? and you did n't see him the whole time ? jax : no . i was too busy paying off people that were after him . carly : okay , well , he must 've had his new face by then . jax : which is probably why he did n't let me see him . [ carly sighs ] carly : okay , so somewhere in the last 12 months , your brother snapped , had plastic surgery , and created this alter ego , mr. craig , and when he knew you 'd be out of town for a while , he took over our hotel . jax : the whole siberia trip was probably a ruse planned in advance . jerry knew i 'd be out of town . he knew that i 'd drop everything for him . i just -- he pulled me away from everything that i love , and for what -- for money ? it just does n't make sense . carly : okay , i especially hate your brother -- and believe me , i hate your brother -- i do believe he was trying to protect you . jax : yeah -- which is exactly why i have to protect him now .

[ scene_break ] carly : jerry 's been hiding at wyndemere this whole time ? jason : yeah , robin , emily , patrick drake were involved in this . they got dragged into it ; they 've kept quiet because they 're trying to keep nikolas alive . jax : what about spencer ? i ca n't believe that my brother would threaten a child .

[ jason sighs ] jason : well , emily said that , um , jerry left the baby alone . i guess poisoning nikolas was really all the leverage he really needed . jax : the other night at your place -- what was that about ? jason : well , your brother knows that i want to kill him . and he wants to make sure that emily suffers if he ends up dead . jax : he did n't poison emily , too , though ? jason : no , he did not . he has bank transfers linking her to espionage and treason . if he ends up dead , he 's going to turn the evidence over to the government . it 's just a different way of holding my sister hostage . jax : i 'll fix this . jason : how you going to fix this ?

[ scene_break ] skye : i made such a big mistake , turning my back on the family the way that i did , but i do n't want to see my little girl punished for it . edward : you know , there 's nothing quite as bad as -- as yearning for a life that you chose to walk away from . no one deserves that pain . skye : i 'm so sorry for hurting the family the way that i did . i regret it down to my soul . and if i had another chance to make it right -- edward : but it is n't that simple . you see , it took time for you to be accepted when -- when alan brought you into our family . but i am a man who has made my own mistakes . and justus was as much a surprise to the family as you were . but eventually , i -- i accepted you as a -- as a quartermaine . and i grew to love you as my true granddaughter . so much so that when i discovered that you were a part of this crisis situation , something broke inside me . not -- not my heart . no , dear , something much deeper . and alan begged me on his deathbed to forgive you . but every time i looked at that news footage of my son staggering out of that lobby , so ill , falling to the ground in -- in pain , i -- you were part of that , skye . you remained silent , when it could have meant the difference between life and death for alan . skye : so you wo n't forgive me ? edward : it 's not that i wo n't . i ca n't . and all things considered , it 's not my forgiveness that you need . [ scene_break ] logan : the jackal is walking away from a challenge ? spinelli : the assassin of the internet does not break his oath of fealty to stone cold or mr. corinthos , sir . it 's kind of a sacred bond that we aces of the underworld share . even a crabby commando like yourself should understand . logan : spinelli , we got off to a bad start , but we 're going to have to figure out how to get along here . there 's a very good chance that i could be working with you in the not - too - distant future . spinelli : we will work together , like , in the not - too - distant never , so -- [ logan chuckles ] logan : i saved sonny 's life twice , man . the -- the guy 's going to want to repay me . spinelli : mr. corinthos , sir , would never trust a knuckle dragger like yourself . he 's too discerning . one of the many traits that he and i share , so -- logan : huh . you 're making a serious mistake here , all right ? you do not want to turn me into an enemy .

[ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : general hospital adheres to the highest standards of patient care , and mr. kovich was treated according to those standards . kyle : except his surgeon had every reason to want him dead . patrick : mr. kovich 's death was unintentional . i 'm very sorry that rafe did n't survive the surgery , but i did everything i could to save his life , as i do with every operation that i perform . paul : if that 's true , dr. drake , then why did you admit that you wanted him dead ? patrick : excuse me ? paul : dr. drake , you just got through telling us that you did your best to save mr. kovich 's life , but how can you expect the public to believe that when you stated your intention to kill rafe right there on the operating table ? kyle : did you see the surgery as a chance for revenge ? paul : at what point during the operation did you decide to take rafe kovich 's life ? kyle : did you act on impulse , or was it premeditated ? paul : or was it always your intention to leave rafe kovich brain - dead ? [ camera shutters clicking ] paul : dr. drake , can you answer the question ? how can you expect us to believe that you did everything possible to save rafe kovich when you stated your intention to kill him ? dr. obrecht : dr. drake is not going to stand here while you hurl baseless accusations . paul : forgive me , dr. obrecht , but the question is not baseless . i am referring to dr. drake 's own words , and i have a source to prove it . dr. obrecht : is that so ? then who is it ? [ scene_break ] mac : so , you and levi are ... ? maxie : engaged . levi : to be man and wife . felicia : well , that 's just great news , is n't it , mac ? i mean , we have tons of questions , like have you set a date ? mac : when did this happen ? where ? how ? why ? why is this happening ? maxie : well , i think the `` why `` is obvious . levi : because we love each other . maxie : and as for the `` when `` and `` where , `` right now , back at our apartment . that 's why we rushed over here to tell you guys . is n't it great ? ! felicia : yes , it is . it 's really great . and i know the two of you have become so close and you 're both so happy , and i 'm very happy for you . i - i really am . but how are you going to marry levi if he 's being deported back to australia ? nathan : that is exactly why they 're doing it .

[ breathes deeply ] [ scene_break ] anna : yeah , i - i understand your concern over rafe kovich 's death . that -- that was a tragedy . scott : when a young man is cut down in is prime , `` tragedy `` is a bit of an understatement . anna : yeah , i agree . we all agree with you . and i have to let you know that we did everything by the book . scott : i 'm sure the pcpd followed every procedure . anna : all right . yeah . scott : i understand that accidents can happen in spite of procedure and protocol and everything else . anna : okay . so , what are we here to discuss , then ? scott : i 'm not here to discuss the accident . i want to find out why there were drugs in that boy 's system .

[ scene_break ] lucy : you , bobbie spencer , are sleeping with scott ? bobbie : once again , lucy , you 're repeating yourself . lucy : but that does n't make any sense , because you and scott -- that was years ago -- decades , even . i mean , i know you made a play to poach scott away from laura with all your plotting and scheming , and he may have been tempted , just for a moment , but your little plot failed . he never , ever went back to you . bobbie : how would you know ? you were n't in port charles back then . lucy : that 's exactly my point ! that 's the `` back then `` -- the way , way back in a galaxy far , far away . this is now . w - w - wait a minute . you and scott is not now . i thought you were just friends . bobbie : well , clearly , you thought wrong . [ chuckles ] lucy : that does n't make any sense , though , because he 's in love -- in he 's in love w - w - with me . when did this happen ? bobbie : you mean when did scott and i get together ? lucy : tch ! if that 's how you like to think about it . bobbie : yeah , lucy . that 's exactly how i like to think about it , okay ? and , to answer your question , actually , scott and i have been together for the past few weeks . lucy : could you be a little more specific , please ? bobbie : okay . specifically , it started after you rejected him , after you let him know that you wanted nothing to do with him . lucy : wait , wait . i - i - i -- that was a horrible time for me . it was complicated , and i was confused , and i said a lot of things in retrospect that i wish i had never , ever said . bobbie : i know , and you expected scott to wait around for you until you changed your mind and came back to him , but guess what -- it 's too late . sorry . too bad . i got here first . [ scene_break ] anna : according to molly , rafe claimed that he was n't on drugs at the time of the crash , which leads us to believe that his judgment was n't impaired . and our theory is that he panicked and lost control of the car . scott : well , whether or not drugs were involved in the crash , the point is he still had heroin and cocaine in his system . anna : i know . scott : well , i was led to believe that the pcpd had cracked down on the drug trade coming in to our good city . anna : yes . we 've made significant strides . scott : well , then , what happened ? where did those drugs come from ? anna : i do n't know . why do n't you ask your friend julian jerome ? [ scene_break ] julian : rafe kovich was a friend of alexis ' daughter . now he 's dead . jordan : yeah , because he was in a car crash during a police chase . i do n't -- what does that have to do with us ? julian : the kid was doing heroin . now , what i want to know is was it coming from us ? jordan : wh -- no ! no way ! no ! as far as i know , we 've only been moving cocaine . julian : maybe you have . what about mickey ? jordan : if mickey 's been moving heroin , he certainly has n't told me about it . julian : not even at dinner the other night ? jordan : mickey told you we had dinner ? julian : of course not . i make it my business to know . i may not be the big boss , but it would be a serious mistake to underestimate me .

[ scene_break ] nathan : levi is trying to avoid being deported , so he convinces maxie to marry him . that way , as her spouse , he has the legal status to stay in the country . maxie : that 's not why we 're getting married . you 're completely wrong , as usual . nathan : oh , come on , ma -- you 're not exactly inventing the green - card marriage here . levi is using you to stay in the country . maxie : for your information , the marriage was not levi 's idea . it was mine . i proposed to him . nathan : i 'll bet you did , just like he wanted you to . maxie : now you 're just being a jerk . felicia : i know you 're not happy with the situation , but maxie can think for herself . she always has . nathan : until now . what did he say to inspire you to propose to him -- what , that they 'd shoot him on the tarmac the moment he landed in sydney ? maxie : no ! what levi said to me was beautiful and intimate and completely between levi and me . nathan : must have been a hell of a line . maxie : i 'm marrying levi because i love him , and if he does n't get deported because of it , that 's just a bonus . felicia : honey , maybe you should n't do this . mac : sweetheart , sweetheart , your mother 's right . this is never gon na work . maxie : and why wo n't it ? mac : because you 've done this before . [ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : well ? who is this source ? paul : that 's confidential . dr. obrecht : [ scoffs ] forgive me , but i thought that in america , one was provided with the opportunity to face one 's accuser . paul : yes , but we also have freedom of the press and the right not to divulge our sources , and my sources say that dr. drake admitted to being tempted to kill rafe kovich . dr. obrecht : even if that were true , wanting something , being tempted , is not a crime . paul : dr. drake said that he looked down at the young man on his table , knew he could make a simple cut that would incapacitate the patient without it being traced back to him , and considered doing so . sam : how does this guy know all that ? silas : i do n't know . sam : what do you mean , you do n't know ? i saw you talking to the reporters . silas : i did n't say anything . paul : dr. drake , what i am asking , what the people deserve to know , is did you make any of these statements ? dr. obrecht : dr. drake is finished with questions for today . we wanted to be up front about the circumstances that led to rafe kovich 's death . but your media circus has made this impossible . kyle : the rest of us still have questions . dr. obrecht : they must remain unanswered for the time being . i can not permit dr. drake to divulge any more details without consulting the hospital 's attorneys . this press conference is over . paul : dr. obrecht , maybe you can answer a question . does the hospital intend to sweep dr. drake 's malpractice under the rug ? dr. obrecht : as i said , this press conference is over . that means that all of the press must leave before i call security !

never mind . bad joke . it 's just the thought of pentonville -- honestly . kristina : if it gets too much , i 'll let you know , but ... i think i can handle it . i mean , if you really want to worry about someone , you should try molly . alexis : oh , god . what now ? why do i need to worry about molly ? molly : sorry it took so long . i got held up with kristina . rafe : molly , i -- molly : i hope these eggs are n't too cold , but you 're probably starving . where 's danny ?

lucy : care to find out ? mcbain : not really . you know , you seem -- you seem to know a lot about all this , lucy . maybe you know something about caleb 's ring . lucy : what about it ? mcbain : rafe said he was wearing it when he killed his mother . said it had kind of a strange crest on it . lucy : it has a bat . mcbain : so you do know it . lucy : i know it as much as you know it . mcbain : no , not really . that 's why i was going to see professor mosser . you know , i was hoping he could shed some light on the ring and on caleb . lucy : oh , but the poor professor , he could vouch for your whereabouts when rafe disappeared , and now he 's dead -- killed . mcbain : yeah , he was killed while i was in lockup , unable to hurt anybody . i mean , do you -- do you still think i 'm caleb ? i mean , really ? or do you think maybe -- just maybe -- there 's another guy out there and he 's trying to frame me ? anna : where 's the body ? sam : uh , in there . anna : how is it that you were here ? sam : i , um ... i came here about a half - hour ago . sorry . and i knocked on the door , and there was no answer , and then his t.a . -- that 's the woman who 's in the hall , there -- she let me in , and this is how we found him . anna : and you did n't move or touch anything else ? sam : no , no , of course -- well , i -- just his -- his wrist for his pulse . anna : right , right . sam : but , anna , to me , it looks like he 's been bitten . anna : by what ? officer : a vampire ? anna : no . it 's ... more likely these . can you bag these for me ? so , you saw no one ? sam : no . anna : and why were you here in the first place ? sam : john mcbain . this was his alibi , professor mosser was . i was just trying to help him . officer : and now he 's dead -- convenient for mcbain that the professor ca n't contradict him . anna : well , no . it looks like the professor was killed maybe within the last hour . mcbain was in lockup , so he could n't have possibly done this . sam : then who did ? heather : we ca n't afford to wait for quint any longer . the cops are all over the place . we 're gon na have to figure out another way to get out of town . caleb : going somewhere ? mcbain : hey , look . lucy ... i do n't know why i look so much like -- like this caleb , and i ca n't explain why you and alison think that sam morgan is actually this person , livvie . lucy : that 's because you are . both of you are . you are caleb morley , and she is livvie locke , and somehow you 've managed to mesmerize everybody to forget about that . mcbain : i mesmerized the whole town of port charles ? lucy : mm - hmm . well within your powers . mcbain : and the town of llanview , pennsylvania ? and a little - known organization called the federal bureau of investigation ? lucy : those close - minded rubes . you know , they just never quite take the threat of vampires very seriously . mcbain : [ scoffs ] hey , lucy , you know , if i 'm so powerful -- huh ? -- and able to hypnotize people , what am i doing sitting in here ? huh ? should n't i be out there on some kind of rampage ? lucy : maybe -- just maybe -- you 're buying yourself time for your big master plan . mcbain : buying time for what ? huh ? i mean , if i have all this power , why do n't i just mesmerize anna into letting me out of here ? just -- just letting me go ? i mean , for that matter , what did i do getting caught in the first place ? ! this sounds like the worst plan ever . lucy : oh , i just think it 's a game . i think you like playing these games because you 've lived for centuries this undeserving life , and now you 're jaded . you like to play games with the living , torment them to think they can win or maybe they can outrun you , but this is all just a cruel , cruel game , and cruelty is your main event . mcbain : what game could i be playing in lockup ? what do i have to gain being stuck in here trying to convince you , trying to win you over , when all the people that you say caleb is after are all out there ? ! molly : what do you mean the nanny took him ? he does n't have a nanny . rafe : she was just here . i mean , she came in and said that she was here for the baby . i do n't know . she seemed like she knew danny . molly : okay , `` she `` who , rafe ? what did she look like ? rafe : older . i do n't know -- 50s , maybe . she was dressed like a nurse . molly : did she say her name ? rafe : susan moore ? molly : oh , my god ! heather ! alexis : what now ? why do i have to pay attention to molly ? kristina : just only the stuff that comes with a teenage girl dating a teenage boy . alexis : you think i have to have another talk with her ? she already knows more than i do . kristina : i 'm late , mom . i got to run . alexis : oh , already ? kristina : i know . i 'm sorry , but i got to go to prison . alexis : oh , honey , that 's music to a mom 's ears . have a nice day . kristina : love you . alexis : love you . molly : danny 's gone ! she took him , and he 's gone ! alexis : who -- why ? ! who took him ? ! molly : heather ! heather webber ! heather : so ... we meet again , detective . caleb : how did you come by that baby ? heather : he 's mine . that 's how . caleb : no , he is n't . i know that boy . heather : well , of course you do . he 's the baby that you and commissioner `` slim `` tried to take away from me once before . caleb : well , that 's because he does n't belong with you . heather : he most certainly does . caleb : no ! he belongs with his mother . heather : daniel 's -- he 's my baby , and i wo n't let you or anybody else take him away from me again ! unh ! [ gasping ] caleb : oh , really ? molly : i left danny alone just for a minute to get something to eat , and then when i came back , heather -- she -- she had taken him ! and i do n't even know how she knew he was here ! alexis : all right , molly , call the police . i 'm calling sam . anna : thanks , guys . sam : so , what does this mean for john ? anna : well , he 's not responsible for this homicide , but it does n't clear him of anything else . sam : no , but john said he was with mosser when rafe escaped and carlson was killed . anna : i know , but now mosser 's dead . sam : okay . john was in lockup . anna : yeah , but there 's this pcpd surveillance footage depicting a man -- the image of john -- helping rafe out of the cell . it does n't make any sense . sam : well , i think the best person to ask would be rafe . i mean , maybe he knows what happened with mosser or maybe he is what happened with mosser . [ cell phone rings ] anna : maybe . sam : hold on . sorry . anna : no , it 's fine . sam : hey , mom , what 's going on ? alexis : sam , i have to tell you something . it 's about danny . heather : [ choking ] caleb : thank you , thank you , thank you for the baby . you 've made it so much simpler for me to convince his mother to come with me now . heather : y - you 're killing me ! caleb : yeah . that 's the idea . heather : [ choking ] caleb : hmm . heather : [ gasps ] caleb : ahh . what do you say , little man ? did you enjoy the show ? oh , you want to get out of here ? well , then , away we go . todd : hey . you are not going anywhere with that kid . carly : do i wish i would have uprooted my life to run away with your father ? to never see or talk to michael or morgan again ? for them to never see their little sister ? to throw my business into complete chaos to duck and cover and in and out from dirty old motel rooms for the rest of my life ? [ laughs ] starr : you really gave that a lot of thought . carly : oh , yeah , i pondered . i have . i never really considered it . i mean , as much as i care about your dad , and i really care about your dad , what the hell am i supposed to do ? starr : you did the only reasonable thing that you could do , but a lot of people do unreasonable things for the right reason . carly : oh , not me . i do n't know if you know this or talked to people , but i never do unreasonable things . starr : [ laughs ] i do n't blame you for walking away . my mom had to do the same thing . she could n't deal with all the things that my dad had done . carly : it 's different with me , though . todd 's no angel , but neither am i . starr : oh , neither is my mom . actually , you two should spend more time together . carly : i just mean , with , uh ... with me and your dad , you know , we 've both done some horrible things , and we 've hurt a lot of people , and we both have been outcasts . in a way , we still are , and ... we get that about each other . starr : why did n't you forgive him , then ? not that i 'm saying you should have . carly : i could 've forgiven everything . i could 've -- switching the babies , lying to you about johnny and your family -- if only todd would 've come clean . starr : so you would n't have cared as long as he told you the truth ? carly : i would 've cared , and i would 've done my best to fix it all . but if todd would 've been honest with me , i would 've been honest with him . i would 've . i would 've stood beside him through everything . but he was n't . he lied to me . and after everything i went through with johnny , i can not be with another liar . i ca n't . starr : and now you wo n't have to . todd : give me the baby , john . caleb : but i 've already become rather fond of him -- too fond to give him up . but i assure you -- no harm will come to this boy . todd : has n't sam been through enough ? caleb : `` sam `` -- i still have n't gotten used to that . todd : okay , do n't get me wrong -- i 'm thrilled that you 're a crackhead or you 're hooked on angel dust or whatever the hell is going on with you , but seriously , dude ? ! you had to throw her in the drink ? caleb : oh , you saw that ! todd : yeah , i saw that ! you of all people ! you could 've killed her ! how could you do something like that ? caleb : it was surprisingly easy . todd : there you have it , i guess . i 've been right all along . ladies and gentlemen , the real john mcbain . lucy : i - i do n't know what you have to gain by staying cooped up in here . mcbain : not a damn thing . but you know who gains a lot by keeping us both in here ? caleb . so if you 're telling the truth about him -- lucy : i am . mcbain : okay . and i 'm telling the truth about me ... then this has worked out exactly as caleb had it planned . and he showed up on that surveillance footage so i 'd be taken into custody . no one 's looking for him . he 's free to do whatever he wants , go after whoever he wants . lucy : how -- how do i know you 're not casting a glamorous spell , just trying to confuse me ? mcbain : to what end ? if i 'm caleb , i do n't need you for anything . think about it , lucy . while we 're wasting time in here ... there are people out there in real danger . lucy : people like rafe and livvie . molly : this is all my fault . no , i should 've never let danny out of my sight . alexis : sit , sit . now listen to me -- you 've got to hold it together . you have got to keep it together for danny and sam , okay ? the police are gon na be here any minute . i would like to hear it from you , in your own words , what happened . molly : [ stammers ] i -- i do n't know . it all happened so fast . i just -- alexis : honey , you got to calm down . you got to breathe , okay ? now think , because every little detail matters here . every little piece of information is gon na help the police be able to track down heather and bring danny back . now what did heather say ? molly : i - i do n't know . alexis : what do you mean you do n't know ? you do n't remember ? molly : i do n't know ! i was n't there ! alexis : well , molly , if you were n't there , how do you know heather took danny at all ? ! sam : the woman is a psycho . anna : calm down . stay focused . sam : this is the second time she 's tried to take my kid ! anna : i have detectives and c.s.u . going over to your mother 's house . we can meet her there , okay ?

[ sighs ] anna : i have a situation . um , i got to go . mcbain : no , what is it ? anna : john , um ... i just heard from sam . she went over to the university to visit professor mosser . mcbain : yeah , that 's -- that 's my alibi . anna : he 's been murdered . starr : you saw my dad ? carly : yes . i , uh ... caught him in his office trying to get into his safe . it 's pretty crazy that todd would risk , you know , showing his face , but ... starr : he needed his passport . carly : you already know all this , huh ? starr : yeah , i did . sorry . carly : no , no . trying to protect your dad . i get that . starr : seems like you wanted to protect him , too . carly : yeah , i came really close to ratting him out . i did . starr : and why did n't you ? carly : stupid , pushover , or it may have had something to do with the fact that he asked me to run away with him . starr : oh , really ? he just expected you to pick up your entire life and take off with him ? carly : no , not my entire life . i mean , he said , i could bring josslyn . starr : oh , how generous of him . carly : yeah . starr : i 'm sure he made the deal sound very sweet . carly : oh . he made a very impassioned case . did n't work . starr : but you wish you said yes ? todd : you know , if you had bothered to read this article , you would know what a wall - climbing whack job heather webber is . quint : well , i think that , uh -- that ugly mug right there is you next to her and the vampire lady . so i 'd say you 're in good company . besides , her green is , uh ... is as good as yours . todd : i will pay both fares . but we need to rid ourselves of this albatross . quint : wait . did you just say `` albatross `` ? todd : aye , i did . she 's a cursed , cursed albatross . quint : really ? todd : really . quint : well , it just so happens that the albatross happens to be my favorite bird . todd : she 's a cuckoo , then . truly , the woman 's head is like a clown car . quint : well , then , you 'll just have to steer clear of her on our travels because she 's coming with us . made an agreement with that woman . and she 's got sense and wit and beauty and ... well , here 's to swimming with bowlegged women . todd : but she 's not really bowlegged , is she ? i mean , she does -- she kind of waddles a little bit . but , really , she stays here . quint : what do you got against her ? todd : what do n't i have against her ? and she 's a murderer . quint : you 've taken lives . i can tell . todd : how can you tell ? ! what -- i 'll have you know , they deser -- well , three of them deserved it . and you know what ? it 's a great story . it 's a long , convoluted , complex , interesting tale . it 's like the tides . i 'll tell you what -- we 'll set sail -- quint : do n't touch that gear , squirt ! i 'm not taking you . todd : how is that possible ? ! i paid you cash money ! quint : hey , no amount of green is worth this . you two escaped lunatics can figure out how to get out of the country on your own . 'cause i 'm done with you . todd : wait ! hey ! hold on a second ! wait , wait , wait ! just wait one second ! can we talk -- oh ! eh ! all right . i just got to find another boat . alexis : hey . oh , i thought you were doing your community - service thing , setting it up . kristina : yeah , i did . it 's all set . alexis : pentonville ? kristina : they want me to start today . alexis : oh . all right . how much time do we have to shop for a taser gun ? kristina : i actually think i 'll be okay . there 's actually a lot of female volunteers working there . alexis : oh , yay . you sure you do n't want me to pull some strings to get you into a better jail ? never mind . bad joke . it 's just the thought of pentonville -- honestly . kristina : if it gets too much , i 'll let you know , but ... i think i can handle it . i mean , if you really want to worry about someone , you should try molly . alexis : oh , god . what now ? why do i need to worry about molly ? molly : sorry it took so long . i got held up with kristina . rafe : molly , i -- molly : i hope these eggs are n't too cold , but you 're probably starving . where 's danny ? rafe : the nanny took him . heather : quint . where are you , you old salt ? we 're on a schedule . mcbain : no need to worry . dosky here is top flight . you 'll be safe in here . lucy : i 'd feel a whole lot safer if his gun was loaded with silver bullets . mcbain : does n't that only work on werewolves ? lucy : care to find out ? mcbain : not really . you know , you seem -- you seem to know a lot about all this , lucy . maybe you know something about caleb 's ring . lucy : what about it ? mcbain : rafe said he was wearing it when he killed his mother . said it had kind of a strange crest on it . lucy : it has a bat . mcbain : so you do know it . lucy : i know it as much as you know it . mcbain : no , not really . that 's why i was going to see professor mosser . you know , i was hoping he could shed some light on the ring and on caleb . lucy : oh , but the poor professor , he could vouch for your whereabouts when rafe disappeared , and now he 's dead -- killed . mcbain : yeah , he was killed while i was in lockup , unable to hurt anybody . i mean , do you -- do you still think i 'm caleb ? i mean , really ? or do you think maybe -- just maybe -- there 's another guy out there and he 's trying to frame me ? anna : where 's the body ? sam : uh , in there . anna : how is it that you were here ? sam : i , um ... i came here about a half - hour ago . sorry . and i knocked on the door , and there was no answer , and then his t.a . -- that 's the woman who 's in the hall , there -- she let me in , and this is how we found him . anna : and you did n't move or touch anything else ? sam : no , no , of course -- well , i -- just his -- his wrist for his pulse . anna : right , right . sam : but , anna , to me , it looks like he 's been bitten . anna : by what ? officer : a vampire ? anna : no . it 's ... more likely these . can you bag these for me ? so , you saw no one ? sam : no . anna : and why were you here in the first place ? sam : john mcbain . this was his alibi , professor mosser was . i was just trying to help him . officer : and now he 's dead -- convenient for mcbain that the professor ca n't contradict him . anna : well , no . it looks like the professor was killed maybe within the last hour . mcbain was in lockup , so he could n't have possibly done this . sam : then who did ? heather : we ca n't afford to wait for quint any longer . the cops are all over the place . we 're gon na have to figure out another way to get out of town . caleb : going somewhere ? mcbain : hey , look . lucy ... i do n't know why i look so much like -- like this caleb , and i ca n't explain why you and alison think that sam morgan is actually this person , livvie . lucy : that 's because you are . both of you are . you are caleb morley , and she is livvie locke , and somehow you 've managed to mesmerize everybody to forget about that . mcbain : i mesmerized the whole town of port charles ? lucy : mm - hmm . well within your powers . mcbain : and the town of llanview , pennsylvania ? and a little - known organization called the federal bureau of investigation ? lucy : those close - minded rubes . you know , they just never quite take the threat of vampires very seriously . mcbain : [ scoffs ] hey , lucy , you know , if i 'm so powerful -- huh ? -- and able to hypnotize people , what am i doing sitting in here ? huh ? should n't i be out there on some kind of rampage ? lucy : maybe -- just maybe -- you 're buying yourself time for your big master plan . mcbain : buying time for what ? huh ? i mean , if i have all this power , why do n't i just mesmerize anna into letting me out of here ? just -- just letting me go ? i mean , for that matter , what did i do getting caught in the first place ? ! this sounds like the worst plan ever . lucy : oh , i just think it 's a game . i think you like playing these games because you 've lived for centuries this undeserving life , and now you 're jaded . you like to play games with the living , torment them to think they can win or maybe they can outrun you , but this is all just a cruel , cruel game , and cruelty is your main event . mcbain : what game could i be playing in lockup ? what do i have to gain being stuck in here trying to convince you , trying to win you over , when all the people that you say caleb is after are all out there ? ! molly : what do you mean the nanny took him ? he does n't have a nanny . rafe : she was just here . i mean , she came in and said that she was here for the baby . i do n't know . she seemed like she knew danny . molly : okay , `` she `` who , rafe ? what did she look like ? rafe : older . i do n't know -- 50s , maybe . she was dressed like a nurse . molly : did she say her name ? rafe : susan moore ? molly : oh , my god ! heather ! alexis : what now ? why do i have to pay attention to molly ? kristina : just only the stuff that comes with a teenage girl dating a teenage boy . alexis : you think i have to have another talk with her ? she already knows more than i do . kristina : i 'm late , mom . i got to run . alexis : oh , already ? kristina : i know . i 'm sorry , but i got to go to prison . alexis : oh , honey , that 's music to a mom 's ears . have a nice day . kristina : love you . alexis : love you . molly : danny 's gone ! she took him , and he 's gone ! alexis : who -- why ? ! who took him ? ! molly : heather ! heather webber ! heather : so ... we meet again , detective . caleb : how did you come by that baby ? heather : he 's mine . that 's how . caleb : no , he is n't . i know that boy . heather : well , of course you do . he 's the baby that you and commissioner `` slim `` tried to take away from me once before . caleb : well , that 's because he does n't belong with you . heather : he most certainly does . caleb : no ! he belongs with his mother . heather : daniel 's -- he 's my baby , and i wo n't let you or anybody else take him away from me again ! unh ! [ gasping ] caleb : oh , really ? molly : i left danny alone just for a minute to get something to eat , and then when i came back , heather -- she -- she had taken him ! and i do n't even know how she knew he was here ! alexis : all right , molly , call the police . i 'm calling sam . anna : thanks , guys . sam : so , what does this mean for john ? anna : well , he 's not responsible for this homicide , but it does n't clear him of anything else . sam : no , but john said he was with mosser when rafe escaped and carlson was killed . anna : i know , but now mosser 's dead . sam : okay . john was in lockup . anna : yeah , but there 's this pcpd surveillance footage depicting a man -- the image of john -- helping rafe out of the cell . it does n't make any sense . sam : well , i think the best person to ask would be rafe . i mean , maybe he knows what happened with mosser or maybe he is what happened with mosser . [ cell phone rings ] anna : maybe . sam : hold on . sorry . anna : no , it 's fine . sam : hey , mom , what 's going on ? alexis : sam , i have to tell you something . it 's about danny . heather : [ choking ] caleb : thank you , thank you , thank you for the baby . you 've made it so much simpler for me to convince his mother to come with me now . heather : y - you 're killing me ! caleb : yeah . that 's the idea . heather : [ choking ] caleb : hmm . heather : [ gasps ] caleb : ahh . what do you say , little man ? did you enjoy the show ? oh , you want to get out of here ? well , then , away we go . todd : hey . you are not going anywhere with that kid . carly : do i wish i would have uprooted my life to run away with your father ? to never see or talk to michael or morgan again ? for them to never see their little sister ? to throw my business into complete chaos to duck and cover and in and out from dirty old motel rooms for the rest of my life ? [ laughs ] starr : you really gave that a lot of thought . carly : oh , yeah , i pondered . i have . i never really considered it . i mean , as much as i care about your dad , and i really care about your dad , what the hell am i supposed to do ? starr : you did the only reasonable thing that you could do , but a lot of people do unreasonable things for the right reason . carly : oh , not me . i do n't know if you know this or talked to people , but i never do unreasonable things . starr : [ laughs ] i do n't blame you for walking away . my mom had to do the same thing . she could n't deal with all the things that my dad had done . carly : it 's different with me , though . todd 's no angel , but neither am i . starr : oh , neither is my mom . actually , you two should spend more time together . carly : i just mean , with , uh ... with me and your dad , you know , we 've both done some horrible things , and we 've hurt a lot of people , and we both have been outcasts . in a way , we still are , and ... we get that about each other . starr : why did n't you forgive him , then ? not that i 'm saying you should have . carly : i could 've forgiven everything . i could 've -- switching the babies , lying to you about johnny and your family -- if only todd would 've come clean . starr : so you would n't have cared as long as he told you the truth ? carly : i would 've cared , and i would 've done my best to fix it all . but if todd would 've been honest with me , i would 've been honest with him . i would 've . i would 've stood beside him through everything . but he was n't . he lied to me . and after everything i went through with johnny , i can not be with another liar . i ca n't . starr : and now you wo n't have to . todd : give me the baby , john . caleb : but i 've already become rather fond of him -- too fond to give him up . but i assure you -- no harm will come to this boy . todd : has n't sam been through enough ? caleb : `` sam `` -- i still have n't gotten used to that . todd : okay , do n't get me wrong -- i 'm thrilled that you 're a crackhead or you 're hooked on angel dust or whatever the hell is going on with you , but seriously , dude ? ! you had to throw her in the drink ? caleb : oh , you saw that ! todd : yeah , i saw that ! you of all people ! you could 've killed her ! how could you do something like that ? caleb : it was surprisingly easy . todd : there you have it , i guess . i 've been right all along . ladies and gentlemen , the real john mcbain . lucy : i - i do n't know what you have to gain by staying cooped up in here . mcbain : not a damn thing . but you know who gains a lot by keeping us both in here ? caleb . so if you 're telling the truth about him -- lucy : i am . mcbain : okay . and i 'm telling the truth about me ... then this has worked out exactly as caleb had it planned . and he showed up on that surveillance footage so i 'd be taken into custody . no one 's looking for him . he 's free to do whatever he wants , go after whoever he wants . lucy : how -- how do i know you 're not casting a glamorous spell , just trying to confuse me ? mcbain : to what end ? if i 'm caleb , i do n't need you for anything . think about it , lucy . while we 're wasting time in here ... there are people out there in real danger . lucy : people like rafe and livvie . molly : this is all my fault . no , i should 've never let danny out of my sight . alexis : sit , sit . now listen to me -- you 've got to hold it together . you have got to keep it together for danny and sam , okay ? the police are gon na be here any minute . i would like to hear it from you , in your own words , what happened . molly : [ stammers ] i -- i do n't know . it all happened so fast . i just -- alexis : honey , you got to calm down . you got to breathe , okay ? now think , because every little detail matters here . every little piece of information is gon na help the police be able to track down heather and bring danny back . now what did heather say ? molly : i - i do n't know . alexis : what do you mean you do n't know ? you do n't remember ? molly : i do n't know ! i was n't there ! alexis : well , molly , if you were n't there , how do you know heather took danny at all ? ! sam : the woman is a psycho . anna : calm down . stay focused . sam : this is the second time she 's tried to take my kid ! anna : i have detectives and c.s.u . going over to your mother 's house . we can meet her there , okay ?

[ continues coughing ] tracy : come on , come on , sit down . finn : thank you . tracy : more importantly , how are you ? finn : mm . hayden : perfect timing . i 'm wondering the same thing . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : tracy made it very clear , the hospital can not reopen until the attacks on bobbie and lucas have been solved . franco : i heard what tracy said . it 's just that i may know someone who may know a little something about what really happened . elizabeth : what are you talking about ? franco : i 'm gon na need for you to trust me on this one . i mean , like , really trust me , okay ? can you do that ? elizabeth : okay . franco : okay . 'cause i think i ... i think i know a way to make sure that gh reopens and then ... you do n't have to move away . how 's that ? [ scene_break ] anna : morgan stole julian 's car and it was wired to explode . and now that man , that young , beautiful boy is collateral damage in a hit that was intended for julian . 'cause sonny was out for blood . griffin : great . anna : and now he is responsible for the death of his own son . i 'm responsible , too . griffin : in what way ? anna : because i knew it ! i knew ! that 's what sonny would do , he would retaliate . that 's who he is ! and i did n't do anything . i did n't call anyone , i did n't tell them what i suspected , i just left it . and now the death of that ... man is on my hands , too . griffin : it ca n't all be on you . anna : yes , it can ! i appreciate what you 're trying to do , but you can not possibly know what i 'm feeling right now . griffin : i can imagine .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : okay , so , when you talk like this , it makes me very nervous . what are you gon na do ? franco : you do n't need to worry about it . it will be a thing of beauty . but i need for you to stay here for a little while , okay ? and i 'll get back here as soon as i can . yeah ? okay . elizabeth : wait . actually , i 'm ... i want to go to kelly 's . can you just meet me there -- after you do n't blow up the world ? franco : yeah , you got it .

[ sighs ] where are you doing this , in your hotel room ? finn : well , of course , now that the hospital 's closed , it 's the closest thing i have to a research facility . hayden : finn , you ca n't keep doing this . you 're gon na end up killing yourself .

[ scoffs ] it 's too early for that , is n't it ? nathan : come on . i mean , we can watch her for a little while , right ? i mean , i 'd like to . maxie : me too ! this is gon na be so nice . claudette : super ! okay , charlotte . you be good with your daddy .

[ sighs ] [ clears throat ] i know that it , by your own twisted logic , that you did whatever it is that you did out of some kind of maternal concern . heather : of course , i did . i 'm a mother . and a mother always puts her children first . franco : right , right . and i appreciate that , i really do . i 'm gon na need for you to do one more thing for me . just to prove how much you love me . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : selling wyndemere is a really big decision . laura : yeah . elizabeth : if that 's something you feel like you need to do , i support you . laura : the cassadines ' estate is basically intact -- all of the houses , all of the companies . but , unfortunately , there 's very little actual cash on hand . elizabeth : oh , yeah , nikolas told me about that . i 'm sorry you feel pressured to do something about this . laura : i do and i do n't . i mean , i want to take care of spencer . that 's my first priority , but ... if i sold just one property , i 'd be able to ... preserve the rest of the cassadine estate and ... i sort of feel like that 's what nikolas would want . elizabeth : yeah . laura : yeah . and there 's another reason i want to get rid of it , too . elizabeth : the past bad memories . laura : mm , yes . there 's also a bad present . i can tell you one thing , there is no way that i 'm gon na live in the same house , no matter how big it is , with a woman that i ca n't stand . [ scene_break ] evan : the guy refuses to sell . i mean , his shack is right in the middle of the 15th fairway . he insists it 's been in his family for over 300 years or whatever . who cares ? he 's compromising the design of the entire course . tracy : glad to see you hashed out your personal life . finn : no hashing and it was n't personal . tracy : mm . i know sparks when i see them . finn : no . tracy : you two have sparks . finn : no , no sparks . it 's all in your head . tracy : mm . methinks the lady doth protest too much . finn : am i , hmm ? hayden on a date with that tool , and i call him a tool not , because she 's on a date with him , and i 'm in any way jealous , but because it 's a factually accurate statement . he is a tool . evan : i mean , if i hear one more time about the 99 % this and the 1 % that . they 're too busy vilifying me and my family , because we have money to even ask about the work i do with the foundation i run for my father 's business . do you know how many grant proposals i read in a year ? which , by the way , is the most boring thing known to man . hayden : you manage grants ? for what ? evan : math nerds , science geeks , medical researchers . those guys are total sticklers , by the way . hayden : wait a minute , wait a minute . did you just say that your family gives out medical research grants ? [ scene_break ] anna : you ca n't move this along any faster . i will decide when i decide . and you will be the first to hear about it . oh , yes , it 's lovely talking to you , too . call your granddaughter , okay ? oh , god . ugh ! andré : anna ? hey . anna : oh , hello , andré . andré : are you all right ? anna : yeah , yeah . andré : you seem exasperated . anna : yeah . robert has that effect on me . andré : and here i thought you two were the best of exes . anna : well , when we 're not yelling at each other . andré : do you want to talk about whatever he was asking you that 's got you so stressed out ? anna : no , no . well , he offered me a job . he wants me to go back to work for the wsb .

[ scene_break ] nathan : ah . here you go . hope you like it . sorry about all the smoke . hope it was n't scary . maxie : but , hey , we got pizza , and that always works for me . nathan : like pepperonis ? charlotte : mm - hmm . nathan : yeah , me too . maxie always gives me all hers 'cause she says they 're too spicy . maxie : mm - hmm . nathan : totally agree . hmm .

[ scene_break ] heather : i 'd do anything to prove how much i love you . franco : anything ? awesome . confess . heather : anything but that . franco : mom , if you do n't come clean and general hospital stays shuttered , and gh is a vital part of port charles ' community . i mean , the medicine and the jobs and the community -- heather : you care less about the people of port charles than they care about you . the only reason you want gh to reopen is so you can be near elizabeth so you can continue to date her . franco : is that so wrong ? heather : yes . it 's wrong that you 're choosing her over me . if i confess ... i 'll lose all my privileges . it 'll be the end of my little excursions . franco : oh , yeah , no , no , no . i admit that if you come clean , it -- it would make your situation more complicated , temporarily . heather : i 'm sorry , franco . i said i 'll fall on the sword for you , but not for elizabeth . franco : then you leave me no choice . heather : no choice ? what do you mean ? franco ? franco ? ! you stay here ! [ scene_break ] elizabeth : you wo n't get an argument from me about evicting hayden . laura : ha . even though she 's your sister ? elizabeth : biologically , and that is it . there is no sibling relationship whatsoever , and it 's safe to say , there never will be . and i am not responsible for her . if she ends up on the street , that is her problem . she can find her way out . she always does . i 've never met anyone more selfish . [ scene_break ] hayden : so let me get this straight , evan . do you decide who gets medical research grants ? evan : yeah . pretty sweet gig , really . you donate enough , it 's a tax shelter for billionaires like my father . hayden : i thought you said he was a millionaire . evan : i do n't like to brag . hayden : look , i was in finance . i know how this goes . the money has to go somewhere , and i have a friend who is in dire need of a medical grant for research . evan : yeah , well , it 's ... it 's a complicated vetting process . hayden : the disease he 's trying to cure is a debilitating disease , and the clock is ticking . so could you -- could you expedite this ? i mean , could you get your father 's foundation to give money for his cause ? evan : absolutely . hayden : oh , my god . that 's -- that 's amazing ! i -- i do n't even know how to thank you . evan : thank me ? sure , you do . [ scene_break ] tracy : where did hayden meet her tool ? finn : i do n't know where hayden meets her tools . i do n't want to talk about tools . i do n't want to talk about hayden . let 's talk about the hospital . tracy : good . so the board of directors is digging in , does not want to reopen the hospital as long as the person responsible for the attacks on bobbie spencer and lucas jones is caught . every day the hospital is closed , we are hemorrhaging money . they are seriously considering selling the hospital for the condo conversion . i am so sorry . i know that you need access to a lab for your research . we 'll find another way . all is not lost . finn : you 're right , tracy . all is n't lost yet . [ scene_break ] andre : the wsb . anna : mm - hmm . andre : you want to be an international woman of intrigue again ? anna : well , i have n't made a decision about the job offer , no . i just owe robert the courtesy of hearing him out . since the cassadines ... wasted their fortune , essentially , infiltrating the bureau , things never really righted themselves . and so now they 're trying to reboot with a fresh new crop of agents . and so robert asked me if i would help train them . andre : i think that would be right in your wheelhouse . anna : well , yes , it would . except the training facility is in geneva . andre : oh . anna : mm . andre : wow . anna : yeah . wow . if i were to take the position ... it means ... i 'd have to leave port charles . andre : so ? are you going to take it ? [ scene_break ] griffin : there is no `` we , `` claudette . we can never be one . so do n't start reminiscing with me about what was , because the only thing we ever had with any consistency is your steady stream of lies . claudette : well , i do n't have any more of those left . not a one . everything 's all out in the open now . so we could start over . griffin : i 'm a priest , claudette . okay , this is n't news . claudette : god , how many times have we had this argument ? ! you left the church years ago . are n't your holy orders just a faded memory at this point ? griffin : yes . i thought they were , until recently . claudette : well , then let 's capitalize on that . griffin : on what ? claudette : i brought charlotte to port charles . and i left her with nathan and maxie for the night to see how they got along , to see how he was with her . and i have no reason to think that it wo n't work out . griffin : work out ? what , are you planning on leaving charlotte with nathan and maxie permanently ? [ scene_break ] maxie : this is ... nothing , just an estimate from the florist -- you know , since we finally made our wedding date -- new year 's eve . nathan : maxie , hey . are you -- you sure you 're okay ? maxie : me , what ? oh , you mean accidental babysitting and dinner ? totally cool . really . nathan : oh , sweetie , do n't touch , do n't touch . maxie : mm . nathan : charlotte , why do n't you -- why do n't you go finish your pizza , okay ?

[ scene_break ] laura : it 's good to see you out and about . elizabeth : thank you . i started out running an errand , and it 's just morphed into this entire evening . laura : oh , really ? how so ? elizabeth : well , i dropped off some treats for franco , and then he insisted we go out to dinner . laura : franco , really ? elizabeth : i know , i know . everyone has an opinion , and none are good , which does n't make for casual conversation about my social life these days . laura : i am sorry . i 'm sure that ca n't be very easy . elizabeth : thank you for not jumping all over this . laura : oh , well ... i do know what it 's like to fall for someone who has a dark side . elizabeth : people think i 'm crazy . laura : yeah , they thought i was crazy , too . [ both chuckle ] laura : i think the important thing is that if you can see the good in franco and you feel that it 's greater than the darkness . elizabeth : honestly ... i do . [ chuckles ] and most people do n't get it . they do n't even try . but for me , it 's -- it 's like it 's right in front of me . i see it in his eyes , i can see it in the things that he does ... and i just hope that the people closest to me can see what i see one day , or at least see that i 'm happy and accept him . believe me , i did not see this coming at all . but the more time that goes by ... i do n't ... i do n't know . you know , i ca n't believe i 'm saying these things out loud . laura : elizabeth ? elizabeth : yeah . laura : are you saying that you 've fallen in love with franco ? [ scene_break ] hayden : are you for real ? evan : very much so . hayden : do you have any idea how gross you are ? evan : funny . 'cause i could say the same thing about you . hayden : what ? evan : this night was n't going anywhere good , and then i mention that i give away money for medical grants , and now you 're all over me . hayden : this is what you think it looks like when a woman is all over you ? evan : look , this is just a business transaction . why ca n't you see it that way ? hayden : because there 's another word for that kind of transaction . evan : what do words matter ? hayden : so you 're saying you 'll give research money to my friend if i -- evan : do n't say it . show it . [ scene_break ] tracy : i wo n't give up on you -- or the hospital . finn : and i appreciate the thought , i do . tracy : it 's not just a thought . finn : i know . i know , but you see , the thing -- [ coughs ] the thing is ...

[ scene_break ] claudette : my number - one priority is doing what 's best for charlotte . griffin : then you think abandoning her with the father she just met is best ? claudette : nathan can protect her better than anyone . griffin : you 're her mother . claudette : and i 'm also the least maternal person i 've ever met . griffin : uh , so let me try to understand this . you 're gon na leave your daughter with her father and run away with me , confident that she has everything she needs -- except you , her mother . nathan 's already fallen for her , okay ? and he 's ... caring and involved and attentive . besides , she 's safer without me drawing attention to her . griffin : claudette -- claudette : i do n't trust myself with charlotte , okay ? i have made mistake after mistake . and nathan 's a good person . and maxie -- god help me ... she 's annoying , but she 's a good mother to her own daughter , i can tell . and me ... the only time i was ever good was when i was with you . [ scene_break ] maxie : yes . yes . i ran a dna test on charlotte . nathan : [ whispering ] how could you do this ? maxie : you were going to run another paternity test anyway . nathan : not five minutes after i laid eyes on her . maxie : the longer this drags out , the more claudette is just gon na manipulate everyone . she 's a pathological liar , and she is using that little girl as a tool in this whole game . nathan : maxie , lower your voice . charlotte is right there . look , you are gon na have to accept that claudette is gon na be a part of our lives because of charlotte . you ran this test without my consent or knowledge , and i do n't want anything to do with it , okay ? maxie : this is not something you can just ignore . nathan : maxie , when i run another test , it will be the right way , not like this . you like that book ? how about i -- how about i read it to you ? maxie : okay . well , i am not letting this go . nathan : maxie . maxie : no . you 're gon na thank me for this one day .

[ kiss ] [ next_on ] sonny : morgan ? maxie ( to nathan ) : we saw what claudette wanted us to see . claudette ( to griffin ) : let 's run away together . ava ( to dr. obrecht ) : the truth will remain a mystery . tracy ( to finn ) : hayden is a big girl . she can take care of herself . evan ( to hayden ) : bottoms up ! | right when maxie and nathan are ready to spend a private romantic evening together , claudette suddenly drops in on them and drops charlotte off with him , manipulating nathan to `` be a dad `` and for maxie to support his choice . they are clearly not comfortable having the girl with them , not knowing what to say or do nor what claudette is up to or when she will return . after she leaves , she goes to find griffin and admits to him what her plan is , regarding letting her daughter stay with nathan whom she knows can take better care of her than she can , and so that she can pursue her future with griffin . tracy , finn and hayden all want the hospital to re - open for many reasons , one being finn 's need to do his research in order to save his and others ' lives . yet they have no solutions . hayden has a dinner date with a guy whom she is not interested nor he - her , until he reveals that he and his family manage financial grants for medical research . she finds herself desperate to stop at nothing to help finn . franco and elizabeth have the same concerns , needing their respective jobs back . he announces he thinks he has an idea and goes to secretly visit his mother , heather , at the mental facility . he informs her he 's heard that there was another unidentified hospital murderer / attempted murderer besides paul hornsby and that 's why they ca n't re - open . he tells her he 's onto her and she admits she did , in fact , attempt to inject both lucas and bobbie but did it for a reason . he tells her he needs her help yet she knows a major reason he wants gh to open is to be with elizabeth so she refuses to help him with that . yet , at that point , franco concludes that , knowing what he knows , he will do what is needed to unravel the mystery so the hospital can reopen . with that , he leaves to go find elizabeth and announce the encouraging news to her . | <s>[INST] maxie : ah , it took forever but i finally got yvette off the phone . i mean , not that i 'm complaining , it 's good to maintain relationships with the fashion industry , but ... wait , what ... is going on ? candles , the good dishes ? nathan : that is me making up for being protective of charlotte . maxie : nathan , do n't blame yourself , okay ? claudette has a tendency to bring out the not - so - nice side of everyone . nathan : well , my ... my reaction was not proportional to the situation . that fact that i have a daughter that i did n't even know about , of course , it changes my life , but it changes your life , too . maxie : hmm . nathan : yeah , so i made some dinner and i lit some candles . maxie : that 's really sweet . nathan : i thought we could do something nice for just the two of us . maxie : something smells really good . what is it that you made ? nathan : i found a recipe online that even i could n't screw up . maxie : oh , yum ! nathan : it wo n't be ready for a while . maxie : well , how long is a while , exactly ? nathan : mmm . maxie : [ giggling ] [ knock on door ] maxie : mnh - mnh . i do n't hear that . forget it . [ knocking continues ] claudette : i know you 're there ! i can smell dinner . nathan : [ clears throat ] sorry . just a second . [ knocking continues ] nathan : yeah , yeah , yeah . all right , all right , all right , all right , all right . what do you wan -- hey . hey . hi , charlotte . nice to see you . claudette : are we interrupting dinner ? or ... something ? nathan : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] anna : [ panting ] oh . [ grunting ] damn it . griffin : not to state the obvious , but i think you need to dial it back a thousand . anna : i 'm fine . i 'm fine , thank you . i have been conducting my workouts like this for my entire career , so thank you . griffin : do you want to talk ? or can we talk ? 'cause i 'm afraid you 're gon na hurt yourself or me if you go back at this bag . anna : [ panting ] i thought it was over , you know . julian beat the system , and i thought ... that i was gon na be fine , that i could figure out a way to accept it , you know , and just let the cops handle it , and i would stay the hell out . but now innocent people are dying because of julian . and because i did n't do enough to keep him off the streets . griffin : i 'm sorry , i can see that you 're in a lot of pain , but what in the world are you talking about ? anna : morgan corinthos is dead ! he got caught in a hit that was meant for julian . [ scene_break ] tracy : you have n't seen lucy coe , have you ? finn : no , i do n't think i have . that annoying woman thinks that i am the only person that can buy and , thereby , save general hospital . as if the quartermaines had that kind of money , i would deal with a board of directors . finn : speaking of which , i know they had that meeting about the sale to -- [ coughs ] how did that go ? [ continues coughing ] tracy : come on , come on , sit down . finn : thank you . tracy : more importantly , how are you ? finn : mm . hayden : perfect timing . i 'm wondering the same thing . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : tracy made it very clear , the hospital can not reopen until the attacks on bobbie and lucas have been solved . franco : i heard what tracy said . it 's just that i may know someone who may know a little something about what really happened . elizabeth : what are you talking about ? franco : i 'm gon na need for you to trust me on this one . i mean , like , really trust me , okay ? can you do that ? elizabeth : okay . franco : okay . 'cause i think i ... i think i know a way to make sure that gh reopens and then ... you do n't have to move away . how 's that ? [ scene_break ] anna : morgan stole julian 's car and it was wired to explode . and now that man , that young , beautiful boy is collateral damage in a hit that was intended for julian . 'cause sonny was out for blood . griffin : great . anna : and now he is responsible for the death of his own son . i 'm responsible , too . griffin : in what way ? anna : because i knew it ! i knew ! that 's what sonny would do , he would retaliate . that 's who he is ! and i did n't do anything . i did n't call anyone , i did n't tell them what i suspected , i just left it . and now the death of that ... man is on my hands , too . griffin : it ca n't all be on you . anna : yes , it can ! i appreciate what you 're trying to do , but you can not possibly know what i 'm feeling right now . griffin : i can imagine . [ scene_break ] nathan : maxie and i were just getting ready to eat . claudette : oh , i can see that . maxie : what can we do for you ? claudette : actually , i was at the park with charlotte , and i was thinking ... maxie : hmm . claudette : you and charlotte have to get to know one another , and i was wrong for slowing that down . and you , too , maxie , right ? you 're gon na be a presence in our daughter 's life , wo n't you ? which got me to thinking , you know , let 's get this show on the road . nathan : what show ? claudette : how would you like to watch our daughter for the night ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : okay , so , when you talk like this , it makes me very nervous . what are you gon na do ? franco : you do n't need to worry about it . it will be a thing of beauty . but i need for you to stay here for a little while , okay ? and i 'll get back here as soon as i can . yeah ? okay . elizabeth : wait . actually , i 'm ... i want to go to kelly 's . can you just meet me there -- after you do n't blow up the world ? franco : yeah , you got it . [ scene_break ] finn : can you give us a minute ? tracy : i could . finn : now ? okay . tracy : i 'll go ... take in the view from the terrace . i could use a change of perspective . hayden : thanks . i was n't in the mood for her . finn : [ chuckles ] wow , you look nice . hayden : thank you . you do n't . what happened to your research breakthrough ? finn : oh , uh ... false alarm . hayden : oh , no , finn . finn : yeah , the trial was a -- a ... a bust . hayden : wait a minute , wait a minute . you got permission to do a trial ? finn : uh , yeah , i got permission right here , you see ? hayden : are you kidding me ? you ran it on yourself ? finn : are you saying i 'm not good enough to be a lab rat ? hayden : this is n't funny . finn : i beg to differ . in times like this , never , ever lose your sense of humor , hayden . hayden : why would you do this to yourself ? finn : well , 'cause the alternative is death . hayden : well ... [ sighs ] where are you doing this , in your hotel room ? finn : well , of course , now that the hospital 's closed , it 's the closest thing i have to a research facility . hayden : finn , you ca n't keep doing this . you 're gon na end up killing yourself .

[ scoffs ] it 's too early for that , is n't it ? nathan : come on . i mean , we can watch her for a little while , right ? i mean , i 'd like to . maxie : me too ! this is gon na be so nice . claudette : super ! okay , charlotte . you be good with your daddy .

[ scene_break ] heather : oh , son ! how good of you to visit . what did you bring me this time ? franco : i did not stop on the way for a blt . heather : i do n't need a sandwich . i need to see what you 're creating since general hospital shut down . franco : i have n't been painting lately . i 've been a little distracted . heather : really ? by jeff webber 's daughter ? the legitimate one ? franco : well , actually , elizabeth has a sister , so , technically , jeff webber has two legitimate daughters . heather : oh , who cares ! let 's not get bogged down in trivia . i want to know if you 're still hung up on elizabeth webber . franco : yeah . i am . i really am . it 's been a little bit of a problem lately , 'cause she 's thinking of moving to rochester . heather : why , when port charles is so exciting ? franco : well , because general hospital is still closed , and she needs to work , she needs to take care of her kids . heather : well , i 'm sure she 's a fabulous mother . but she does n't need to move . i mean , they caught the gh killer . they put that nut job away . franco : well , yes , but ... not the nut job that attacked bobbie spencer and lucas jones . you know , that case is still open , so the hospital is still closed . heather : wow . that is a bummer . franco : major bummer . yeah . and the police have no idea who did it . but you know , do n't you ? heather : you give me too much credit , son . i only know what i read in the papers . franco : oh , no , do n't be modest . i have no idea how you did it , heather ... but i know it was you . heather : aside from your good looks , which all came from me , you know how else i know that we 're related ? we both have vivid imaginations . franco : the last time i was here , you kept saying that you had done something to protect me ... to help me , when you still thought i was the gh killer . heather : so you think i killed other people to divert suspicion away from you ? franco : yes , exactly . you kept implying that you had done something to help me . heather : fine , fine , fine . all right , you got me ! i tried to inject bobbie . i want after her , and then her son came in . and i injected him instead . but they both lived , no biggie . franco : oh , no biggie . why would you do something like that ? ! heather : let 's just say ... i was looking out for you . i knew you 'd be at the nurse 's ball and that you 'd have a very public alibi . so if i killed bobbie the same way the other killings were committed , well , then ... franco : [ sighs ] heather : ... they 'd let you go . franco : oh , this is unbelievable ! you do n't -- unbelievable ! ha ! heather : you know what 's unbelievable ? that dopey kid of hers , he forgot his keys . he came back in . who does that ? ! he messed up everything . franco : probably saved his mother 's life . heather : yeah , well ... he made mine more difficult . franco : okay , listen , heather -- mother -- mother -- mom , mom , mom . mom ... [ sighs ] [ clears throat ] i know that it , by your own twisted logic , that you did whatever it is that you did out of some kind of maternal concern . heather : of course , i did . i 'm a mother . and a mother always puts her children first . franco : right , right . and i appreciate that , i really do . i 'm gon na need for you to do one more thing for me . just to prove how much you love me . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : selling wyndemere is a really big decision . laura : yeah . elizabeth : if that 's something you feel like you need to do , i support you . laura : the cassadines ' estate is basically intact -- all of the houses , all of the companies . but , unfortunately , there 's very little actual cash on hand . elizabeth : oh , yeah , nikolas told me about that . i 'm sorry you feel pressured to do something about this . laura : i do and i do n't . i mean , i want to take care of spencer . that 's my first priority , but ... if i sold just one property , i 'd be able to ... preserve the rest of the cassadine estate and ... i sort of feel like that 's what nikolas would want . elizabeth : yeah . laura : yeah . and there 's another reason i want to get rid of it , too . elizabeth : the past bad memories . laura : mm , yes . there 's also a bad present . i can tell you one thing , there is no way that i 'm gon na live in the same house , no matter how big it is , with a woman that i ca n't stand . [ scene_break ] evan : the guy refuses to sell . i mean , his shack is right in the middle of the 15th fairway . he insists it 's been in his family for over 300 years or whatever . who cares ? he 's compromising the design of the entire course . tracy : glad to see you hashed out your personal life . finn : no hashing and it was n't personal . tracy : mm . i know sparks when i see them . finn : no . tracy : you two have sparks . finn : no , no sparks . it 's all in your head . tracy : mm . methinks the lady doth protest too much . finn : am i , hmm ? hayden on a date with that tool , and i call him a tool not , because she 's on a date with him , and i 'm in any way jealous , but because it 's a factually accurate statement . he is a tool . evan : i mean , if i hear one more time about the 99 % this and the 1 % that . they 're too busy vilifying me and my family , because we have money to even ask about the work i do with the foundation i run for my father 's business . do you know how many grant proposals i read in a year ? which , by the way , is the most boring thing known to man . hayden : you manage grants ? for what ? evan : math nerds , science geeks , medical researchers . those guys are total sticklers , by the way . hayden : wait a minute , wait a minute . did you just say that your family gives out medical research grants ? [ scene_break ] anna : you ca n't move this along any faster . i will decide when i decide . and you will be the first to hear about it . oh , yes , it 's lovely talking to you , too . call your granddaughter , okay ? oh , god . ugh ! andré : anna ? hey . anna : oh , hello , andré . andré : are you all right ? anna : yeah , yeah . andré : you seem exasperated . anna : yeah . robert has that effect on me . andré : and here i thought you two were the best of exes . anna : well , when we 're not yelling at each other . andré : do you want to talk about whatever he was asking you that 's got you so stressed out ? anna : no , no . well , he offered me a job . he wants me to go back to work for the wsb . [ scene_break ] griffin : [ panting ] claudette : thought i 'd find you here . it 's like hell 's kitchen all over again , huh ? what was that place called -- murdoch 's ? griffin : i 'm busy . claudette : i remember the first time i followed you after mass . i stood by the door and saw you in a group of other men that were dressed pretty much how you are right now . thought i 'd died and gone to heaven -- with a priest . griffin : what do you want , claudette ? claudette : you really have to ask me that ? i want you . and i have finally figured out a way for us to be together . [ scene_break ] nathan : ah . here you go . hope you like it . sorry about all the smoke . hope it was n't scary . maxie : but , hey , we got pizza , and that always works for me . nathan : like pepperonis ? charlotte : mm - hmm . nathan : yeah , me too . maxie always gives me all hers 'cause she says they 're too spicy . maxie : mm - hmm . nathan : totally agree . hmm . [ knock on door ] maxie : oh , that 's probably the pizza guy . he forgot the soda . man : maxie jones ? - maxie : yeah . man : for you , rush delivery . maxie : how long do paternity test results take ? all right . thanks . nathan : what came ? [ scene_break ] heather : i 'd do anything to prove how much i love you . franco : anything ? awesome . confess . heather : anything but that . franco : mom , if you do n't come clean and general hospital stays shuttered , and gh is a vital part of port charles ' community . i mean , the medicine and the jobs and the community -- heather : you care less about the people of port charles than they care about you . the only reason you want gh to reopen is so you can be near elizabeth so you can continue to date her . franco : is that so wrong ? heather : yes . it 's wrong that you 're choosing her over me . if i confess ... i 'll lose all my privileges . it 'll be the end of my little excursions . franco : oh , yeah , no , no , no . i admit that if you come clean , it -- it would make your situation more complicated , temporarily . heather : i 'm sorry , franco . i said i 'll fall on the sword for you , but not for elizabeth . franco : then you leave me no choice . heather : no choice ? what do you mean ? franco ? franco ? ! you stay here ! [ scene_break ] elizabeth : you wo n't get an argument from me about evicting hayden . laura : ha . even though she 's your sister ? elizabeth : biologically , and that is it . there is no sibling relationship whatsoever , and it 's safe to say , there never will be . and i am not responsible for her . if she ends up on the street , that is her problem . she can find her way out . she always does . i 've never met anyone more selfish . [ scene_break ] hayden : so let me get this straight , evan . do you decide who gets medical research grants ? evan : yeah . pretty sweet gig , really . you donate enough , it 's a tax shelter for billionaires like my father . hayden : i thought you said he was a millionaire . evan : i do n't like to brag . hayden : look , i was in finance . i know how this goes . the money has to go somewhere , and i have a friend who is in dire need of a medical grant for research . evan : yeah , well , it 's ... it 's a complicated vetting process . hayden : the disease he 's trying to cure is a debilitating disease , and the clock is ticking . so could you -- could you expedite this ? i mean , could you get your father 's foundation to give money for his cause ? evan : absolutely . hayden : oh , my god . that 's -- that 's amazing ! i -- i do n't even know how to thank you . evan : thank me ? sure , you do . [ scene_break ] tracy : where did hayden meet her tool ? finn : i do n't know where hayden meets her tools . i do n't want to talk about tools . i do n't want to talk about hayden . let 's talk about the hospital . tracy : good . so the board of directors is digging in , does not want to reopen the hospital as long as the person responsible for the attacks on bobbie spencer and lucas jones is caught . every day the hospital is closed , we are hemorrhaging money . they are seriously considering selling the hospital for the condo conversion . i am so sorry . i know that you need access to a lab for your research . we 'll find another way . all is not lost . finn : you 're right , tracy . all is n't lost yet . [ scene_break ] andre : the wsb . anna : mm - hmm . andre : you want to be an international woman of intrigue again ? anna : well , i have n't made a decision about the job offer , no . i just owe robert the courtesy of hearing him out . since the cassadines ... wasted their fortune , essentially , infiltrating the bureau , things never really righted themselves . and so now they 're trying to reboot with a fresh new crop of agents . and so robert asked me if i would help train them . andre : i think that would be right in your wheelhouse . anna : well , yes , it would . except the training facility is in geneva . andre : oh . anna : mm . andre : wow . anna : yeah . wow . if i were to take the position ... it means ... i 'd have to leave port charles . andre : so ? are you going to take it ? [ scene_break ] griffin : there is no `` we , `` claudette . we can never be one . so do n't start reminiscing with me about what was , because the only thing we ever had with any consistency is your steady stream of lies . claudette : well , i do n't have any more of those left . not a one . everything 's all out in the open now . so we could start over . griffin : i 'm a priest , claudette . okay , this is n't news . claudette : god , how many times have we had this argument ? ! you left the church years ago . are n't your holy orders just a faded memory at this point ? griffin : yes . i thought they were , until recently . claudette : well , then let 's capitalize on that . griffin : on what ? claudette : i brought charlotte to port charles . and i left her with nathan and maxie for the night to see how they got along , to see how he was with her . and i have no reason to think that it wo n't work out . griffin : work out ? what , are you planning on leaving charlotte with nathan and maxie permanently ? [ scene_break ] maxie : this is ... nothing , just an estimate from the florist -- you know , since we finally made our wedding date -- new year 's eve . nathan : maxie , hey . are you -- you sure you 're okay ? maxie : me , what ? oh , you mean accidental babysitting and dinner ? totally cool . really . nathan : oh , sweetie , do n't touch , do n't touch . maxie : mm . nathan : charlotte , why do n't you -- why do n't you go finish your pizza , okay ?

[ both chuckle ] laura : i think the important thing is that if you can see the good in franco and you feel that it 's greater than the darkness . elizabeth : honestly ... i do . [ chuckles ] and most people do n't get it . they do n't even try . but for me , it 's -- it 's like it 's right in front of me . i see it in his eyes , i can see it in the things that he does ... and i just hope that the people closest to me can see what i see one day , or at least see that i 'm happy and accept him . believe me , i did not see this coming at all . but the more time that goes by ... i do n't ... i do n't know . you know , i ca n't believe i 'm saying these things out loud . laura : elizabeth ? elizabeth : yeah . laura : are you saying that you 've fallen in love with franco ? [ scene_break ] hayden : are you for real ? evan : very much so . hayden : do you have any idea how gross you are ? evan : funny . 'cause i could say the same thing about you . hayden : what ? evan : this night was n't going anywhere good , and then i mention that i give away money for medical grants , and now you 're all over me . hayden : this is what you think it looks like when a woman is all over you ? evan : look , this is just a business transaction . why ca n't you see it that way ? hayden : because there 's another word for that kind of transaction . evan : what do words matter ? hayden : so you 're saying you 'll give research money to my friend if i -- evan : do n't say it . show it .

[ sighs ] you know , before mother came back to town , i rarely thought about brent davis . but now when i see her , how can i not think about him ? i think about , `` how could you do this to dad ? how could you do this to me ? `` jack : on some level , i 'm glad she did . you would n't have been born , otherwise . ashley : and knowing that makes it all so much more confusing , because that is the absolute truth . i think i 'm having an identity crisis . it 's ridiculous at my age , is n't it ? the bottom line is , i do n't want any lingering resentment to define my relationship with my mother . jack : i understand that . and my situation is not as complex as yours , but the pain that mother inflicted was real . only , since she 's been back , the time we 've spent with her has been surprisingly healing . and i think that 's true for you , too . ashley : have you not heard anything i 've said ? jack : i 'm not saying there is n't more work to do . but slowly but surely you two are growing closer . ashley : i know . you 're right . there has been definite improvement . except for this last graham thing . but a lot of that is because of abby . jack : how so ? ashley : well , she 's made me see dina in a different light . probably because i have a grown daughter who has n't always agreed with the choices that i 've made . jack : wow . i would call that a real breakthrough . ashley : are you being sarcastic ? jack : no , i 'm not . i 'm saying ... how did my sister manage to become so evolved in secret ? ashley : [ laughs ] it was n't in secret . i told you . ravi has been encouraging me to be more understanding with our mother , and to cut her some slack . you do know that he 's very well - adjusted , right , and healthy and grounded , where you and i tend to be a little bit more messed - up , and kind of bitter and jaded ? i do n't know . jack : oh , i do n't know . i 'd say ravi would n't agree to an overnight at a lakeside cabin with a woman he considered damaged goods . ashley : i think there 's , um , a compliment buried in there somewhere . jack : [ chuckles ] ashley : i 'll make sure i pass it on to ravi . jack : so you 're gon na see him later ? i 'm just curious . ashley : i 'm gon na let you speculate on that quietly . to yourself . goodbye . [ trunk opens ] mariah : [ sighs ] tessa : [ sighs ] mariah : so ? did you talk to alice ? was there any sign of crystal ? what story did you feed them ? tessa : i kind of struck out . i only saw alice . but no doubt it was the same woman in your mom 's photo of her driving . mariah : really ? tessa : yeah . i mean , same haircut , same build . i mean , i - i kept her chatting at the door as long as i could , but she only opened it a crack . just enough to see her face . i mean , no way did she want me seeing what was inside . mariah : so you agree with sharon ? you think she 's hiding something ? tessa : oh , beyond . i mean , i pretended to be some music , flaky guitar teacher , and she was so stressed out to even have me at the door . i mean , like she wanted me to bounce out of there real bad . but it was all very polite . clamped down . under duress . mariah : like she was more afraid of making a scene that somebody might notice . tessa : nailed it . mariah : well , thank you for not doing anything crazy . when you ran back to the car to get your guitar , i ... i did n't know what you were thinking . tessa : well , i hope you do n't expect me to give up . i 'm gon na find another way in .

[ scoffs ] let 's not talk about loyalty here , okay , jack ? victoria : jabot does n't even have a face mask . this is gon na be our ace in the hole . billy : yeah , but our ace in the hole is n't supposed to come out of the hole for another six months . victoria : that 's fine . we move it up . you love a good rush launch , do n't you ? billy : what about the hyper - promotion that goes with it ? victoria : [ sighs ] okay , so let 's get hyper . billy : okay . well , right off the top of my head , i 'm thinking lily . i mean , she 's been knocking it out of the park with the men 's line . we can have her be the spokeswoman for the sheet - mask , too . victoria : yes ! yes , that 's brilliant . i mean , you saved us an entire month right there . that 's great . billy : come on , a month ? more than a month . show me a little love for that . victoria : [ laughs ] [ knock on door ] phyllis : hi . billy : hey . phyllis : it was open . do n't mind me , victoria . give him all the love he wants . i know he 's deserved it . billy : i do . i do . i 've been working very hard down here . victoria : yeah , but that does n't mean that we ca n't take a break . phyllis : oh , no , no , no , no . do n't stop on my account . do n't stop the momentum . i just swung by to see if you wanted to come home . but i see that i caught you in the middle of something . victoria : no , that 's okay . we were just , uh -- billy : no , no . we were just about to wrap it up . um , why do n't i text you when i 'm walking out of here ? phyllis : okay . all right . you just squeeze in as much productivity as you can , okay ? billy : okay . phyllis : all right . sorry to interrupt . zack : i could lay out every detail of what kept me away tonight . but as important as it seemed to me at the time , it would sound like i 'm just justifying my actions . and you 're too good for that . i have such respect for you , abby , but until i put that into practice , they 're just words . which i do n't expect you to believe . you asked me if this is how i treat women . it isn't . and you 're unlike any woman i 've ever known . i was driven before i met you . but now i am killing myself to make this business work for an entirely different reason . and that 's you . i want to impress you . i want to make you proud . because ... i still ca n't believe that you would ever look twice at a guy like me . abby : why would you say that ? zack : you know how they say people are from two different worlds ? we 're the textbook example . abby : you think ? heh ... zack : you 've been everywhere . you have everything . you 've probably dated the cream of the a - list . i 'm just a street kid from a long line of losers . i figured that out when i was 9 years old , and i have been hustling ever since to make sure the same thing did n't happen to me . abby : well , i think you might have broken the family curse . zack : i 'm not convinced . i was lucky to find my niche when i did , but to have that niche lead me to someone like you ? i mean , that 's like winning the scratch - off mega - jackpot that my mom wasted so much money chasing . billion to one odds . and i won . i knew it the day i met you . abby : stop it . [ laughs ] zack : at first i thought we were just connecting over the project . i was so stoked to have a partner that i could get along with . but one day , i woke up , and i knew . i had conceived designdate to give people an edge in finding what they want most . but i found it without even looking . it found me . i 'd like to think that it found us . and ... it is too strong and good and right for me to sabotage just because i 'm afraid . i 'm afraid that you might not feel the same way . tessa : [ sighs ] i just keep replaying it in my head , the scene at the front door . i mean , how could i just walk away and not do anything ? mariah : do what ? i mean , what were you gon na do , tackle alice and bust into the house ? tessa : it would 've been better than doing nothing . this whole trip was a waste . mariah : tessa , it was so not a waste . you met alice , and you agreed that she 's the woman in the photos that sharon showed us . tessa : oh , my god . i might have made a huge mistake back there . mariah : why ? what do you mean ? tessa : i was so focused on crystal it did n't even occur to me ... now alice knows what i look like . natalia : alice ? alice : what is it , sweetie ? natalia : what happened to crystal ? alice : [ sighs ] she could n't stay . natalia : it 's very sad to me . i like crystal . so much . alice : yes , i know , sugar . you and crystal are my favorite girls . natalia : but you take good care of her , yes ? alice : you have my word . did you know i once had my own little girl ? it 's really ... very tragic . she died much too young . sharon : tessa asked me if the alice i knew would be capable of something like this . scott : you mean as a house mother for sex slaves ? sharon : i keep thinking what alice was like back then . imagining why she wanted to adopt cassie . scott : yeah , when she was so obviously ill - equipped . sharon : i feel like alice convinced herself that taking in a child would fix her own life because it was an act of goodness or kindness . scott : on the surface . sharon : she 's not one who delves deeper . i think she 's still telling herself that same thing today . that she 's helping these girls , not exploiting them . [ cellphone beeps ] sharon : alice 's car . it 's on the move . billy : that was close earlier . with phyllis . we should make sure we keep the door closed . victoria : [ sighs ] i doubt she heard anything . although we are surrounded by jabot world headquarters . and our sheet - mask launch needs to stay top secret . billy : no argument here , especially the way jack 's been attacking us . victoria : you know what , maybe you ought to head home . it 's late . i do n't want you to keep phyllis waiting . billy : you sure ? okay . we do have a big day tomorrow morning -- johnny 's first day of kindergarten . victoria : yeah , and after we drop him off , it 's gon na be a big day here for the two of us . jack : your boss send you here to apologize ? phyllis : oh , let me guess . lauren made it clear that she is not gon na play sides when it comes to parker beauty and brash & sassy ? jack : bingo . phyllis : [ sighs ] i just came from down there . victoria 's having an after- hours strategy session with billy . jack : my . sounds juicy . phyllis : mm . yeah , well , they shut it down as soon as they saw me . but not before i caught a few words . billy and victoria are working on something big . jack : tantalizing . can you use your unique skill set to find out more ? phyllis : oh , it 's my new priority . dina : i never , ever wanted it revealed . i would have given my own life to protect this secret . ashley : but someone else knew the secret too , huh ? you could n't control your lover , brent davis , could you ? dina : brent means nothing to me . nothing . ashley : well , obviously he did at one time , mother . i mean , after all , he is my father . [ present dina sobs ] you know what that does to me ? when i think that that drunken slob was your lover ? his genes are inside me . because his blood is running through my veins , mother . of course i want to know about him ! dina : well , i do n't know what i can tell you . ashley : oh , that 's lovely . i 'll assume that means that you ca n't think of anything even remotely positive to tell me , right ? i already know he 's an alcoholic . and he 's a deadbeat . brent davis wanted to claim his daughter back then , too , did n't he ? and that man would n't rest until he 'd wrecked my life . well , he did that . he accomplished that . he ruined my life . he took everything away from me when he took away my father , and i hate him for that . dina : ashley , please . you 've got to believe -- ashley : i do n't have to believe anything ! because everything you 've ever said since before i was even born has been a lie . there is not one thing about me that is real or honest . do you have any idea what that does to me ? or do you even care ? dina : graham ! graham ! [ gasps ] oh ... hello . please connect me to room number -- i 'm sorry . p - pardon me . ohh ... oh ... abby : i could say the same thing . you are different than anyone that i have ever dated . all that you 've overcome to get where you are , i really respect that . so you do n't have to prove yourself to me . there 's no imaginary standard . zack : i 'm not imagining it . you deserve the best . abby : i deserve to not be stood up . zack : never again . i swear . abby : dating your co - workers is stupid . uh ... it 's a minefield . and it should be avoided . but then there 's everything that you said . the connection that we have . the way that we can talk to each other and laugh , and the way we worked together starting this app , i mean ... all of that , it does exist . so for me to pretend like it does n't , i mean , that would be just as stupid as dating my co- worker . zack : maybe more ? abby : maybe much more . [ sighs ] zack : how do you feel about public displays of affection ? abby : surprisingly tolerant . mariah : as soon as we have real evidence that links alice to the sex ring , we 're gon na go to the cops . they will listen and help . tessa : right now , all we have are hunches and a lot of circumstantial nothing . and once we do have something more , it might be too late . mariah : hey , you ca n't think like that . we just have to focus on finding your sister . and you ca n't give up . sharon : where is alice going at this hour ? scott : look , she 's turned onto the access road . she 's headed for the airport . sharon : i do n't care what nick thinks . i want to go after her .

[ sighs ] scott : oh . she had a cookie emergency . abby : oh . scott : luckily you had six left . abby : yes , how much do i owe you ? sharon : uh , i 'm sorry . the register 's closed . abby : you know what , i am gon na put this in the tip jar for tomorrow . i think the universe would want it that way . sharon : okay . thanks so much . abby : thank you . seriously . scott : any time . sharon : what was that all about ? alice : [ sighs ] sugar ? go up and wait in your room . this will only take a minute . okay ? it 's okay . alice : can i help you ? tessa : oh , hey . uh , i 'm the new music teacher . i 'm here for kaley 's first lesson ? alice : there 's no kaley here . tessa : oh , um , maybe i wrote the name down wrong . is it haley ? or kiki ? alice : we did n't order a music lesson . tessa : oh , look . i , uh -- i wrote it down . alice : you 've got the wrong house . tessa : [ laughs ] i 'm such an airhead . is mercury in retrograde ? alice : i have no idea . but i 'm busy . tessa : uh , look , i - i 'm gon na be late and get fired . c - could i use your phone ? mine died . alice : no . sorry . tessa : will you -- will you please help me ? alice : no . tessa : look , i - i ca n't lose this gig . i 've got all this credit - card debt , and i - i 'm late on rent . again . alice : i wish i could help . tessa : could i just use your charger ? i mean , i 'll bring it right back . oh , oh ! i could rent it . i have $ 1 . alice : sweetie , i can't . i 'm sorry . good luck , though . tessa : just -- alice : bye - bye . bye - bye . tessa : could you -- wait ! phyllis : take a look at the brash & sassy sales figures . do n't you think the turnaround is a bit sudden to be this accurate ? lauren : well , yeah . i mean , it is a bump up from last quarter . but ... so ? i mean , since when do we get upset with sales spikes ? in fact , it might be incentive for parker beauty to up their ad budget . phyllis : okay , parker beauty is owned by jabot . fenmore 's business partner . lauren : and ? phyllis : and should n't we be invested in its success ? i mean , am i crazy ? lauren : crazy ? no . transparent ? yes . phyllis : transparent . lauren : [ laughs ] oh , come on . please do n't play the `` fenmore 's loyalty `` card . this is about brash & sassy failing . you and jack have it in for that company because who runs it . phyllis : jack and i are not on the same page on this one . lauren : all right . well , then , let 's talk about you . you want billy away from victoria 's control , and you want to stick it to her while you 're doing it . phyllis : okay , you 're over - simplifying this grossly . lauren : as your best friend , i am begging you to abandon this plan with its many built - in flaws . and as your boss , i 'm gon na tell you flat - out , i am not stacking the deck for your personal agenda . phyllis : okay , as my best friend and my cherished employer , please listen . victoria is not playing fairly . she is manipulating this . the business , these numbers , billy . lauren : that is exactly what you 're doing . oh , come on . please . would you just confess so we can have dessert ? phyllis : i thought out of everyone i could depend on your loyalty . lauren : and , honey , you can . when it comes to our friendship , you have me . but this is business , and i am loyal to fenmore 's . and so should you . phyllis : excuse me . i 'm not feeling well . lauren : oh , phyllis , come on . this can only end badly ! [ sighs , stammers ] can i have the check , please ? thank you . victoria : i am telling you , whatever you did to improve our numbers at fenmore is a huge success . billy : it was a short - term counter assault to show jack that we 're not messing around . victoria : but you saw our numbers , though , at the other chains -- they 're still flat . billy : yeah , and i wish that i could pull off another fenmore 's miracle , but ... victoria : well , we just need a bigger strategy . billy : we need the numbers up across the board , okay ? and i 'm thinking ... i 'm thinking men 's line . victoria : yeah , i agree . because dare -- dare is our most reliable earner . billy : this body spray 's a babe magnet . victoria : yeah . depends on who you spray it on . ravi : ashley did n't say anything about the past . it was more about what she did n't say . dina : ashley will never trust me . ravi : this is just a hunch . it could be that she knows so little about graham . who i know is very important to you . dina : graham does n't owe my children an explanation , ravi , and neither do i . ravi : i agree . all that matters is do you trust him ? dina : oh , yes . of course i do . and i can see that you have the same bond with ashley . ravi : well , i hope i never give her a reason not to trust me . just as i hope graham never gives you one . dina : oh , never , never . but -- but he has gone back to paris . ravi : really ? that 's sudden . dina : well , it 's a situation with his apartment that he has to handle in person . ravi : okay . well , will you be okay alone here ? dina : hmph , hmph ! et tu , ravi ? you think that i 'm not to be trusted to handle myself ? hm ? ravi : how could i ever think that about such a remarkable woman ? dina : [ laughs ] ravi : bonsoir . dina : bonsoir , chéri . jack : so do you think corporate espionage is some part of graham 's larger plan in using mother ? ashley : [ sighs ] well , we do n't know him that well , so we ca n't put anything past him . but do n't forget , how would he have ever known that we were gon na hire mother ? jack : well , he managed to take advantage of it pretty quickly . ashley : i know . but he has a huge inheritance coming . he 's gon na risk that for some company secrets ? i do n't think so . jack : he does n't get his payday until dina dies . maybe he needs some fast cash . ashley : try convincing our mother of that . graham has made himself such an important part of her life . jack : this is exactly why i wanted her working here . ashley : i know . jack : we could put some distance between her and this guy , and she 'd be forced to spend some time with her real family . ashley : yeah . about that . i think , um , maybe she still has a little bit too much time on her hands . jack : oh ? ashley : she had breakfast with abby recently , and , uh , guess what they talked about ? jack : the perfect place to get an eyebrow threading ? ashley : very funny . no . i wish . she brought up ... brent davis , jack . jack : what ? ashley : yeah . and the affair that she had with him . jack : i can not believe mother would reveal anything about that to her own granddaughter . ashley : she did . i mean , not the part , you know , that he 's my father . jack : well , thank god for that . ashley : right . but she did tell abby why she left us , and ... what went on with her and brent . jack : okay , well , you talked to mother . did she give you any reason why she would spill any of that ? ashley : well , she said that she felt she had to say something , and that possibly that would head abby off from asking more questions . jack : i guess that makes some sense . ashley : how ? jack : if abby knew the whole story , maybe she 'd understand you and your actions a whole lot better . jack : i 'm sorry . that was out of line . you know me -- i 've always got lots of opinions . most of which should be kept to myself . ashley : it 's okay . i 'm used to you and your opinions . [ sighs ] you know , i realize this is my issue , jackie , and i wish i could get past it . i wish that i could just be grateful every day that john abbott was my father in every way that mattered and move on . oh , what ? no opinion now ? jack : you know my opinion on this one . it has never mattered to me how you got here . ashley : you 're afraid to say it , are n't you ? please do n't be coy . we both know that our mother had an affair with the country - club gigolo , and therefore i exist . jack : you can say this a million times . it makes zero difference . ashley : it makes a difference to me , jack . [ sighs ] you know , before mother came back to town , i rarely thought about brent davis . but now when i see her , how can i not think about him ? i think about , `` how could you do this to dad ? how could you do this to me ? `` jack : on some level , i 'm glad she did . you would n't have been born , otherwise . ashley : and knowing that makes it all so much more confusing , because that is the absolute truth . i think i 'm having an identity crisis . it 's ridiculous at my age , is n't it ? the bottom line is , i do n't want any lingering resentment to define my relationship with my mother . jack : i understand that . and my situation is not as complex as yours , but the pain that mother inflicted was real . only , since she 's been back , the time we 've spent with her has been surprisingly healing . and i think that 's true for you , too . ashley : have you not heard anything i 've said ? jack : i 'm not saying there is n't more work to do . but slowly but surely you two are growing closer . ashley : i know . you 're right . there has been definite improvement . except for this last graham thing . but a lot of that is because of abby . jack : how so ? ashley : well , she 's made me see dina in a different light . probably because i have a grown daughter who has n't always agreed with the choices that i 've made . jack : wow . i would call that a real breakthrough . ashley : are you being sarcastic ? jack : no , i 'm not . i 'm saying ... how did my sister manage to become so evolved in secret ? ashley : [ laughs ] it was n't in secret . i told you . ravi has been encouraging me to be more understanding with our mother , and to cut her some slack . you do know that he 's very well - adjusted , right , and healthy and grounded , where you and i tend to be a little bit more messed - up , and kind of bitter and jaded ? i do n't know . jack : oh , i do n't know . i 'd say ravi would n't agree to an overnight at a lakeside cabin with a woman he considered damaged goods . ashley : i think there 's , um , a compliment buried in there somewhere . jack : [ chuckles ] ashley : i 'll make sure i pass it on to ravi . jack : so you 're gon na see him later ? i 'm just curious . ashley : i 'm gon na let you speculate on that quietly . to yourself . goodbye . [ trunk opens ] mariah : [ sighs ] tessa : [ sighs ] mariah : so ? did you talk to alice ? was there any sign of crystal ? what story did you feed them ? tessa : i kind of struck out . i only saw alice . but no doubt it was the same woman in your mom 's photo of her driving . mariah : really ? tessa : yeah . i mean , same haircut , same build . i mean , i - i kept her chatting at the door as long as i could , but she only opened it a crack . just enough to see her face . i mean , no way did she want me seeing what was inside . mariah : so you agree with sharon ? you think she 's hiding something ? tessa : oh , beyond . i mean , i pretended to be some music , flaky guitar teacher , and she was so stressed out to even have me at the door . i mean , like she wanted me to bounce out of there real bad . but it was all very polite . clamped down . under duress . mariah : like she was more afraid of making a scene that somebody might notice . tessa : nailed it . mariah : well , thank you for not doing anything crazy . when you ran back to the car to get your guitar , i ... i did n't know what you were thinking . tessa : well , i hope you do n't expect me to give up . i 'm gon na find another way in .

[ elevator dings ] ashley : hi . ravi : hey . you 're here . ashley : yeah , for a minute . what 's going on ? ravi : uh , well , i just delivered dina 's jabot laptop . ashley : mm . how was she ? ravi : she was great . yeah . super cordial and chatty . ashley : oh . ravi : we had an interesting conversation . ashley : oh , about me ? ravi : about you . about me . about our special bond of trust . ashley : oh . ravi : yeah . she started talking about her and graham and made the comparison . it was a bad comparison . in so many ways . ashley : yeah , the biggest difference being that you are trustworthy and graham isn't . ravi : thank you . ashley : so , while you were there , did you happen to see graham in her suite ? ravi : uh , no . graham was n't there . he went back to paris . ashley : when did that happen ? ravi : like a day or two ago . yeah , apparently there were some issues with his apartment . dina insisted it was n't a big deal . she was a lot more concerned about the argument she had with you the other day . ashley : [ sighs ] i 'm sorry . she should n't have pulled you into our drama . ravi : i think she just wanted someone to talk to . ashley : well , she found the best listener there is . any observations ? ravi : [ sighs ] dina thinks that you 're not gon na forgive her for her past mistakes . jack : you 're confident these cosmetic - sales figures are accurate ? lauren : yes . i have a highly - skilled marketing team . jack : i 'm talking about this spike in brash & sassy 's sales figures on page four . they have no new products , no promotions . and somehow they pull this off when they ca n't even keep the lights on ? how did they manage that ? lauren : okay , this goes no further . jack : okay . lauren : they are an established brand with good products , and our customers like them . jack : this meeting is over . thank you for bringing this by . lauren : on another note , as long as your arch enemies downstairs continue with these numbers , they 're gon na stay on my shelves . even if your much - vaunted new line outsells them . jack : do i have to remind you jabot and fenmore 's are now partners ? lauren : oh , really ? i do n't think you do . because you love to remind me all the time . and in case you 're having a memory lapse , i still have controlling interest . any other questions ? jack : yeah , one . whatever happened to loyalty ? lauren : phyllis works for me . she is part of my highly - valued team , and she 's a confidante of mine . you 're playing on her insecurities about victoria . you are bullying her into going along with this spiteful vendetta you have against your brother . [ scoffs ] let 's not talk about loyalty here , okay , jack ? victoria : jabot does n't even have a face mask . this is gon na be our ace in the hole . billy : yeah , but our ace in the hole is n't supposed to come out of the hole for another six months . victoria : that 's fine . we move it up . you love a good rush launch , do n't you ? billy : what about the hyper - promotion that goes with it ? victoria : [ sighs ] okay , so let 's get hyper . billy : okay . well , right off the top of my head , i 'm thinking lily . i mean , she 's been knocking it out of the park with the men 's line . we can have her be the spokeswoman for the sheet - mask , too . victoria : yes ! yes , that 's brilliant . i mean , you saved us an entire month right there . that 's great . billy : come on , a month ? more than a month . show me a little love for that . victoria : [ laughs ] [ knock on door ] phyllis : hi . billy : hey . phyllis : it was open . do n't mind me , victoria . give him all the love he wants . i know he 's deserved it . billy : i do . i do . i 've been working very hard down here . victoria : yeah , but that does n't mean that we ca n't take a break . phyllis : oh , no , no , no , no . do n't stop on my account . do n't stop the momentum . i just swung by to see if you wanted to come home . but i see that i caught you in the middle of something . victoria : no , that 's okay . we were just , uh -- billy : no , no . we were just about to wrap it up . um , why do n't i text you when i 'm walking out of here ? phyllis : okay . all right . you just squeeze in as much productivity as you can , okay ? billy : okay . phyllis : all right . sorry to interrupt . zack : i could lay out every detail of what kept me away tonight . but as important as it seemed to me at the time , it would sound like i 'm just justifying my actions . and you 're too good for that . i have such respect for you , abby , but until i put that into practice , they 're just words . which i do n't expect you to believe . you asked me if this is how i treat women . it isn't . and you 're unlike any woman i 've ever known . i was driven before i met you . but now i am killing myself to make this business work for an entirely different reason . and that 's you . i want to impress you . i want to make you proud . because ... i still ca n't believe that you would ever look twice at a guy like me . abby : why would you say that ? zack : you know how they say people are from two different worlds ? we 're the textbook example . abby : you think ? heh ... zack : you 've been everywhere . you have everything . you 've probably dated the cream of the a - list . i 'm just a street kid from a long line of losers . i figured that out when i was 9 years old , and i have been hustling ever since to make sure the same thing did n't happen to me . abby : well , i think you might have broken the family curse . zack : i 'm not convinced . i was lucky to find my niche when i did , but to have that niche lead me to someone like you ? i mean , that 's like winning the scratch - off mega - jackpot that my mom wasted so much money chasing . billion to one odds . and i won . i knew it the day i met you . abby : stop it . [ laughs ] zack : at first i thought we were just connecting over the project . i was so stoked to have a partner that i could get along with . but one day , i woke up , and i knew . i had conceived designdate to give people an edge in finding what they want most . but i found it without even looking . it found me . i 'd like to think that it found us . and ... it is too strong and good and right for me to sabotage just because i 'm afraid . i 'm afraid that you might not feel the same way . tessa : [ sighs ] i just keep replaying it in my head , the scene at the front door . i mean , how could i just walk away and not do anything ? mariah : do what ? i mean , what were you gon na do , tackle alice and bust into the house ? tessa : it would 've been better than doing nothing . this whole trip was a waste . mariah : tessa , it was so not a waste . you met alice , and you agreed that she 's the woman in the photos that sharon showed us . tessa : oh , my god . i might have made a huge mistake back there . mariah : why ? what do you mean ? tessa : i was so focused on crystal it did n't even occur to me ... now alice knows what i look like . natalia : alice ? alice : what is it , sweetie ? natalia : what happened to crystal ? alice : [ sighs ] she could n't stay . natalia : it 's very sad to me . i like crystal . so much . alice : yes , i know , sugar . you and crystal are my favorite girls . natalia : but you take good care of her , yes ? alice : you have my word . did you know i once had my own little girl ? it 's really ... very tragic . she died much too young . sharon : tessa asked me if the alice i knew would be capable of something like this . scott : you mean as a house mother for sex slaves ? sharon : i keep thinking what alice was like back then . imagining why she wanted to adopt cassie . scott : yeah , when she was so obviously ill - equipped . sharon : i feel like alice convinced herself that taking in a child would fix her own life because it was an act of goodness or kindness . scott : on the surface . sharon : she 's not one who delves deeper . i think she 's still telling herself that same thing today . that she 's helping these girls , not exploiting them . [ cellphone beeps ] sharon : alice 's car . it 's on the move . billy : that was close earlier . with phyllis . we should make sure we keep the door closed . victoria : [ sighs ] i doubt she heard anything . although we are surrounded by jabot world headquarters . and our sheet - mask launch needs to stay top secret . billy : no argument here , especially the way jack 's been attacking us . victoria : you know what , maybe you ought to head home . it 's late . i do n't want you to keep phyllis waiting . billy : you sure ? okay . we do have a big day tomorrow morning -- johnny 's first day of kindergarten . victoria : yeah , and after we drop him off , it 's gon na be a big day here for the two of us . jack : your boss send you here to apologize ? phyllis : oh , let me guess . lauren made it clear that she is not gon na play sides when it comes to parker beauty and brash & sassy ? jack : bingo . phyllis : [ sighs ] i just came from down there . victoria 's having an after- hours strategy session with billy . jack : my . sounds juicy . phyllis : mm . yeah , well , they shut it down as soon as they saw me . but not before i caught a few words . billy and victoria are working on something big . jack : tantalizing . can you use your unique skill set to find out more ? phyllis : oh , it 's my new priority . dina : i never , ever wanted it revealed . i would have given my own life to protect this secret . ashley : but someone else knew the secret too , huh ? you could n't control your lover , brent davis , could you ? dina : brent means nothing to me . nothing . ashley : well , obviously he did at one time , mother . i mean , after all , he is my father . [ present dina sobs ] you know what that does to me ? when i think that that drunken slob was your lover ? his genes are inside me . because his blood is running through my veins , mother . of course i want to know about him ! dina : well , i do n't know what i can tell you . ashley : oh , that 's lovely . i 'll assume that means that you ca n't think of anything even remotely positive to tell me , right ? i already know he 's an alcoholic . and he 's a deadbeat . brent davis wanted to claim his daughter back then , too , did n't he ? and that man would n't rest until he 'd wrecked my life . well , he did that . he accomplished that . he ruined my life . he took everything away from me when he took away my father , and i hate him for that . dina : ashley , please . you 've got to believe -- ashley : i do n't have to believe anything ! because everything you 've ever said since before i was even born has been a lie . there is not one thing about me that is real or honest . do you have any idea what that does to me ? or do you even care ? dina : graham ! graham ! [ gasps ] oh ... hello . please connect me to room number -- i 'm sorry . p - pardon me . ohh ... oh ... abby : i could say the same thing . you are different than anyone that i have ever dated . all that you 've overcome to get where you are , i really respect that . so you do n't have to prove yourself to me . there 's no imaginary standard . zack : i 'm not imagining it . you deserve the best . abby : i deserve to not be stood up . zack : never again . i swear . abby : dating your co - workers is stupid . uh ... it 's a minefield . and it should be avoided . but then there 's everything that you said . the connection that we have . the way that we can talk to each other and laugh , and the way we worked together starting this app , i mean ... all of that , it does exist . so for me to pretend like it does n't , i mean , that would be just as stupid as dating my co- worker . zack : maybe more ? abby : maybe much more . [ sighs ] zack : how do you feel about public displays of affection ? abby : surprisingly tolerant . mariah : as soon as we have real evidence that links alice to the sex ring , we 're gon na go to the cops . they will listen and help . tessa : right now , all we have are hunches and a lot of circumstantial nothing . and once we do have something more , it might be too late . mariah : hey , you ca n't think like that . we just have to focus on finding your sister . and you ca n't give up . sharon : where is alice going at this hour ? scott : look , she 's turned onto the access road . she 's headed for the airport . sharon : i do n't care what nick thinks . i want to go after her . [ next_on ] victoria : i 'm really glad you were there to help . billy : yeah , we make a pretty good team . phyllis : i 'm the outsider . i 'll never have what they had . and i want to fix it . jack : what has this man done to deserve undying loyalty from you ? dina : all right . i 'll tell you .Summarize.[/INST]ashley tells jack that she is worried that dina will tell abby that her real grandfather is brent davis not john abbott . jack does n't think that dina would do something like that which would hurt her and abby . dina is alone in her hotel room , because graham is away checking on his apartment in paris , when she has a nightmare about when ashley found out brent davis was her biological father . she awakens yelling for graham to help her . scott persuades abby to forgive zack for standing her up once again and once she hears that zack came from a poor family and that ever since he was a kid he has been working to make something more of his life she forgives him and tells him she has feelings for him . tessa is unable to get into the house where alice is keeping crystal although she has a brief conversation with alice at the door and later tells mariah that she thinks sharon is right alice is hiding a secret . scott and sharon follow alice once the app tells them she is on the move unaware that she is changing crystal 's location . mariah and tessa decide to go to the police with their suspicions about alice . billy and victoria are pleased with the spike in sales for brash and sassy at fenmore 's and decide to launch their new face mask early and use lily as spokeswoman . phyllis and jack wonder what has led to the sudden spike in sales for brash and sassy and phyllis agrees to help get secrets from brash and sassy by using sex to get billy to let something slip about brash and sassy . billy on the other hand has no plans to stop looking at phyllis ' computer to find out secrets about jabot despite the fact that victoria is worried that he will get caught by phyllis .</s> | 18,035 |

diego : disappointed . disillusioned ... that i was n't the person she thought i was . sharon : well , consider yourself lucky . diego : what ? sharon : you only lost a few months before you got the newman stamp of rejection . i 'm out seven years of my life . brad : ash , if i have n't made it clear , anything between olivia and me is over . ashley : does she know that ?

( typing continues ) victor : i 'm talking to you . how are things going ? victor : i guess not too well . i hope you 're not blaming me for things not working out . victoria : well , you would just say that you had nothing to do with it . victor : if things are n't working out between you and diego , i think there 's only one reason . he 's not the right man for you , and you know it . i came here because i was hoping that we could put some of this contentiousness behind us . victoria : here it comes , right on schedule . you go in , you manipulate and destroy , you do whatever you damn well please to people , and then you think that you can just patch over it with some big homily about forgiveness and family . well , i 'm sorry , dad , but it 's not gon na work this time . victor : i know ththat my objection to your relationship with diego has caused some bitterness . victoria : oh , god . do n't you get it ? this has nothing to do with what you 've done to me . this is what you 've done to nicholas -- something that is totally unforgivable . ( knock on door ) sharon : nicholas . sharon : oh . it 's you . diego : look , i 've been trying for days to reach victoria . i thought you might know how i can get ahold of her . sharon : um , sorry , diego . ca n't help you . your girlfriend and i are n't exactly tight these days . diego : now what ? sharon : you want to come in ? diego : what about nick ? sharon : look , i 'm standing here freezing . diego : look , you know what ? i do n't want to cause you any more grief . sharon : more grief ? you really think that 's possible ? because at this point , i sure don't . raul : i thought we had a lot of stuff before lauren fenimore took over . mac : i forgot my watch . anyone know what time it is ? brittany : hey , guys . raul : must be about 25 after .

( cell phone ringing ) mac : who 's ringing ? raul : it 's not me . brittany : me either . billy : sounds like it 's there .

's . he stopped by yesterday . i guess he forgot it . billy : what was j.t . doing here ? raul : look , you 're gon na hear about it anyway , so , um ... lauren hired him he 's gon na be working here . billy : oh , man . well , that 's just what we need here . brittany : at least now i wo n't be the only late one . billy : look , we 'll talk her out of it later . what i want to know is , what is colleen doing calling the guy ? brittany : hello ! where have you been ? billy : what ? what are you saying ? they 're still seeing each other , meeting on the sly , what ? mac : billy , you know , they do care about each other . brittany : maybe she just called to say `` be mine . `` billy : or is it about tonight -- the dance ? damn , if my dad was right about who -- j.t . : whoa , double date ! that 's pretty pathetic , guys . you 're supposed to take your valentines out . raul : what do you want , j.t . ? j.t . : i lost my cell phone . anybody seen it ?

colleen : no ! lily : too bad you have to sneak around all the time . colleen : look , if my family wants me to be honest , they 're gon na have to learn to trust me a little bit more . that 's the way it works . because i am not letting anyone get between j.t . and me , not ever again . lily : we ought to go soon . what time is it ? colleen : oh , wow . i 'm glad you said that . i still have to wash my hair and everything . victor : you 've talked to your brother about the other night . victoria : yeah . nice euphemism . yeah , we talked about it . victor : that 's very unfortunate . victoria : why ? because after you crushed him , he did n't fell like keeping your dirty little secret ? victor : there 's so much about this you do n't know . victoria : that 's where you 're wrong . i already know more than i ever wanted to . unless what you 're really saying is that nicholas has it wrong . he told me that you were the one who kissed sharon , that you took all the blame , that you were the one who crossed the line . and i 'm sure that he would rather believe it was you than her , that there might be some hope for that relationship despite everything . victoria : dad , please , if you lied to nicholas , please tell me . tell me that sharon was the one who made the first move , because i could totally believe that about her . do n't try and protect her , not with me . diego : sharon , the way you say that -- sharon : i do n't want to discuss it , especially not with you . i thought you came here on account of victoria . diego : things are bad . they 're real bad . sharon : because of that stunt you pulled with those criminals ? i ca n't say that i blame her . diego : thanks . that helps . sharon : i 'm dealing with a lot of my own problems right now , all right ? diego : you want me to go and stop wasting your time ? sharon : when was the last time you spoke to her ? diego : the night that everything went down . she walked out on me . she wo n't even take my calls , refuses to see me . sharon : you 're right . that does sound pretty bad . diego : victoria does n't understand why i did what i did . sharon : frankly , i do n't either . victor told me about it . it struck me as the height of recklessness . diego : yeah , maybe it was . maybe i was a dope for actual thinking i could make a difference . i only did it to set things right between victoria and her dad . just wanted to show the man i was made of better stuff than he gave me credit for . sharon : well , i 'm sure you said that to victoria . how did she react ? diego : disappointed . disillusioned ... that i was n't the person she thought i was . sharon : well , consider yourself lucky . diego : what ? sharon : you only lost a few months before you got the newman stamp of rejection . i 'm out seven years of my life . brad : ash , if i have n't made it clear , anything between olivia and me is over . ashley : does she know that ? brad : i 'm sure she realizes there 's no future for us . ashley : she fell in love with you . brad : and i never meant for that to happen . i did n't encourage it -- ashley : but it did happen , brad , just the same . ashley : did you love her ? brad : i cared for her . ash , i was at the end of my rope . olivia threw me a lifeline . but it 's over . ashley : i just wonder if it 's over for her . brad : it has to be . ashley : no . i 'm still angry with her . brad : liv and i let this go much further than we ever should have . but , honey , i just want to put it in the past . ashley : well , i 'm sorry , brad , but i 'm just not a big enough person to do that . my best friend got involved with my husband while i was deathly ill . i mean , you both let that happen . i would have sworn on my life that neither one of you could have ever do something like that . brad : and we both did . ashley : so how can you promise me that the next time thin g get tough , you 're not going to seek solace with somebody else ? and i did n't know -- how can i trust you ? wes : it depends on what you mean by having it all . olivia : what do you think it means ? wes : everyone defines it differently . olivia : yeah , well , they used to say that about me . `` she 's a doctor . she 's beautiful . she 's got it all . `` except i did n't think so . wes : modesty ? olivia : well , thanks for not saying `` low self - esteem . `` wes : hey , it 's tough to be an m.d . and impact people 's lives the way you do and not at least be confident . olivia : well , if i do have it all , what does she have that i do n't have ? why did brad go backo o her ? wes : is this really about ashley ? olivia : you know , there 's a lot you do n't know about me , wesley . i 've been married , you know -- twice . both times a disaster . both times my husbands cheated on me . the first time , i did n't even have a clue , which almost killed me , since the woman had a.i.d.s . , if you can believe that . that was nate 's dad . he died -- not of a.i.d.s . , but it was tragic . olivia : and then there was my second husband -- malcolm . he betrayed me with an old girlfriend he had n't quite gotten over . but i saw that one coming . no , scratch that . i brought that one on myself . i was so convinced that he could n't be faithful to me , that i made it a self - fulfilling prophecy . pretty powerful , huh ? and now look at me . i fell in love with a married man . god , what is wrong with me ? what was i thinking ? you know , i - i - i think i 'm an intelligent woman . but you could n't tell that judging from my relationships . i 'm sorry . i do n't even know why i 'm going on like this in front of you . wes : you 're being open , sharing yourself . it 's good for you . olivia : yeah , well , there 's no point in wallowing in self - pity , is there ? wes : this is a new side of you i 'm seeing , olivia -- strong , unafraid . olivia : you know , earlier i was thinngng of this quote that eleanor roosevelt said . it , um , had something to do with overcoming your fear and being a better person . wes : `` you must do the thing you think you can not do . `` olivia : yeah . you -- that -- that 's the one . olivia : i must do the thing i think i can not do . j.t . : colleen ? billy : timing stinks , does n't it ? five minutes earlier , we would n't have been onto you . j.t . : look , i have no control over who calls me , all right ? billy : yeah . right . j.t . : just give me the damn phone , okay ? billy : why , you in a hurry ? you got somewhere to be ? j.t . : yeah , wherever you 're not . billy : maybe you need to run home , get changed for the big dance . j.t . : dance ? brittany : crimson lights ? j.t . : look , i have no idea what you 're talking about . billy : like hell . j.t . : look , if this is about that high school thing , please . like , i would n't be caught dead there . mac : you sure about that , j.t . ? billy : careful , mac , you 'll make him think too hard . j.t . : hey , you have problems dealing with -- billy : look , i 'm gon na use small words and speak real slowly just to make sure you understand this . j.t . : what ? billy : if you had any bright ideas about seeing colleen tonight , it ai n't gon na happen . i 'm taking my niece to the dance . i 'm walking r r to the door , watching her go inside , and i 'm gon na pick her up the minute it 's over . if i see you within a mile of the place , you 're toast . you got that , j.t . ? j.t . : you all done with your big speech ? 'cause you 're wasting your breath , man . billy : do n't bother calling colleen . i 'll make sure she knows not to look for you there . have a nice night . ( drops cell phone ) j.t . : that jerk does n't know what he 's talking about . brad : it surprises me a little that you 're bringing up the issue of trust . ashley : why ? you do n't think i have the right to do that ? brad : i did n't say that . ashley : well , i guess you could , considering what i kept from you . brad : listen , you know what , honey ? can we just concentrate on the things that bring us together , not the things that could pull us apart ? ashley : no . no , we ca n't do that , brad , because you made mistakes , and i made mistakes , and we have to deal with them . i kept a huge secret from you that has just affected all of us . and you got involved with my best friend when i was ill . brad : and i wish it had n't happened . honey , i do n't want to lose what matters most to me -- abby , my daughter , in spite of everything , our new baby , and most of all you , my wife . i do n't know what issues we 're going to have to confront in the future , but i k know i want to confront them with you . baby , i love you . you mean everything to me . and olivia is just going to have to accept that . ashley : i just wonder if she can . ( doorbell rings ) [ music throughout ] victoria : please tell me the truth . please tell me that you did n't do this . i mean , sharon is bad for nicholas . she 's proven that . if you 're trying to protect her -- do n't you see how wrong that is ? please just tell me the truth , dad . tell me you did n't come on to her . victoria : you know , all my life ... no matter how bad things got between us , i have always respected you . i have always known deep in my heart that you are an honorable man . but for you to do this , for you to do this to youronon , it 's just -- it 's unspeakable . victor : i 'm telling you , there 's a lot you do n't know about this . victoria : just save it . save the excuses . you 're going to need them when you talk to mother . victor : did you or nicholas tell her about it ? victoria : well , i ca n't vouch for nicholas , but i have n't said anything to her . i mean , it makes me sick to think how she 's gon na react . victor : let 's hope your brother feels the same way . victoria : you do n't honestly believe you can keep this from her . victor : your mother need n't be involved , all right ? there 's no need for her to know . victoria : how could you do this ? i mean , how could you risk so much ? and for what ? victor : you did n't hear me . there are other things involved in this that you do n't know about , all right ? and you should n't pass judgment until you know all the facts . victoria : elell , then give me the facts , dad . give them to me . let 's hear them . if you can defend what you 've done somehow , with some reason that makes sense , give it to me ! but you ca n't , can you ? victor : just know that everything i 've done , i 've done for the sake of the family . victoria : this tears my heart out . tears my heart out . i ca n't -- i 've got my own issues to deal with right now . sharon : if i had known last spring what i know now -- diego : no , do n't even think about it , sharon . sharon : you know , maybe nikki was right . if i had shown just a little more strength -- diego : what 's done is done . there 's no point in beating ourselves up . sharon : especially since everyone else is doing such a great job . diego : you do n't still blame me for ruining your life ? sharon : do n't give yourself too much credit . diego : just one mistake . i do n't know , sharon . just seems to me you 've paid way too big of a price . sharon : what about you ? look at everything you 've lost . diego : yeah , well , too bad the rest of your family ca n't be that nsnsitive . sharon : sensitive , huh ? is that what i am ? diego : you know what ? do n't beat yourself up . you are a good person . do n't let them take your self - respect away . sharon : gosh . how long has it been since we talked this way ? diego : i think we both know the answer to that . sharon : we used to be such wonderful friends . god , i miss those days . diego : yeah . me too . i 'm sorry the way things turned out for you . the last thing i ever wanted to do was hurt you , cause you pain . shan : n : i 'm sorry , too , for a whole lot of reasons .

billy : well , why are you so bent out of shape ? colleen : why do you think ? i 'm in high school . i do n't need a babysitter . billy : you sure that 's the only reason ? colleen : yes . it 's because you have n't l u up one inch , even though i 've been perfect for weeks . billy : does being perfect include calling j.t . , even though you 've been warned over and over again not to ?

martin : i 'm serious , alistair . drop the charges against katherine , see to it that she does n't spend a day in jail for the attempt on your life , or i swear i 'll tell the whole world what 's buried under that gazebo of yours . alistair : you would n't dare . martin : watch me . you 'll rot in jail for the rest of your damn life , maybe even get the death penalty . alistair : still the tough - talker are n't you , fitzgerald ? but you wo n't tell anyone what 's buried under that gazebo , because if you do , your life will be over , too . martin : it 'll be worth it . alistair : perhaps . but if the secret of the gazebo comes out , it wo n't be just our lives . what do you think it 'll do to pilar and your family ? sacrificing your own life to bring me down is one thing , but have n't you hurt your family enough ? do you really want to completely destroy them ? sheridan : we will get you the best lawyers , mrs . wheeler . luis : i 'll pull in every string i can to make your jail stay as easy as possible . katherine : thank you , luis . luis : and as soon as bail is set , we 'll get out of there , ok ? sam : no , i would n't count on that . my guess is there wo n't be bail set this time . i mean , after a second attempt on alistair 's life , it 's going to be a hard sell to convince any judge to set bail , especially if he gets his old pal judge reilly involved . he 's intent on keeping you behind bars . sheridan : well , it wo n't work . we will get you out . luis : yeah . katherine : i do n't think that 's going to happen , sheridan . i know far too well what alistair 's capable of . sam : look , we have to go , mrs . wheeler . sheridan : wait , i have so many questions to ask her . sam : and i have a few of my own . luis : wow . you 're really convinced there 's some sort of connection between you and mrs . wheeler , huh ? sheridan : yeah . like i said before , i do n't know why . i do n't even know if it 's a good connection or a bad connection . but i 'm going to find out . i have to . gwen : theresa , i know this is a terrible decision for you to have to make . it 's horrible for me , too . i mean , these s are my babies , but you 're the one who has to agree to have the procedure done . theresa , you have to , ok ? you have to , because if you do n't , both of those babies are going to die , and if botof those babies die , then i will never , ever , ever be able to have a biological child of my own . theresa : gwen , i do n't know . gwen : theresa , if there was a way that we could save both of these babies , i would do it in a heartbeat . i would give up an organ . i would spend my last penny . i would do anything to be able to have both of these babies . but we ca n't do that , but we have the chance to save at least one . you 're a mother , theresa . please , please , please do n't take away my chance at being a mother ! oh , please . alistair : is it really worth revealing what 's under that gazebo , martin ? yes , you 'd destroy me , yes , i 'd go to jail , perhaps even be put to death . but whatever happens , you 'd be right there beside me . imagine pilar 's face as she watched that -- and luis and miguel and theresa and paloma . imagine the shame your three grandchildren would have to grow up with . martin : you son of a bitch . alistair : did n't you already cause your family enough pain when you ran off with my wife and abandoned them without a word , left them to struggle emotionally and financially all these years ? martin : you 've caused them far more pain than i did , taking their jobs , their homes , killing antonio . alistair : none of that would have happened had you been here to protect them . martin : i had no choice ! alistair : there 's always a choice ! you have one now . luis loves sheridan . he want to marry her . she 's his whole world . martin : what are you threatening ? alistair : if you reveal the secret of the gazebo , you and i both know sheridan will never marry luis . now , do you really want to do that , after all the pain you 've already caused him ? are you prepared to do the one thing even i could n't accomplish ? are you prepared to destroy his relationship with the woman he loves ? luis : well , i do n't know how you 're going to find out anything about this connection that you feel with mrs . wheeler . sheridan : neither do i , but there 's got to be a way to get her to open up . luis : yeah . well , i just do n't understand how she can hate alistair so much . sheridan : well , he did try to kill her back in the jungle . luis : i know that . it just seems like it 's more than that . it seems like she 's hellbent on protecting you from alistair at any cost . sheridan : including her own life . luis : i just do n't get it . how could she have developed feelings for you so quickly ? we only met the wheelers this summer . sheridan : you know , i think i 'm going to go stop by the jail , bring mrs . wheeler some things she might need . luis : well , i 'll go with you . there can be some real lowlifes in those cells . sheridan : i 'll be fine . besides , sam is there . i really think that i should talk to her alone , you know , woman to woman , try to get her to open up and tell me why she tried to kill my father , why i feel such a connection with her . woman : ooh ! hey , hey , hey ! second woman : a new feel . sam : hey , hey , hey , let 's keep it down . let 's keep it down , all right ? woman : oh , come to visit us . sam : this will be your holding cell tonight . katherine : fine . woman : ooh . sam : hey . try to relax , ok ? i 'll be back in a minute . woman : it 's ok . you going to come back and check on me later , too , chief ? you come back and check on me later , chief . nice to see you again . well , sweet little thing . katherine : oh , god . woman : oh , god ai n't going to help you in here , honey . but i can . second woman : and i ca n't wait to mess up that pretty , rich face . gwen : theresa , you have to agree to this procedure . you have to give ethan and me the chance to be parents . theresa : gwen , i do n't know . it 's just too confusing . gwen : it does n't have to be . think about what life would be like if you were never able to be a mother . it 'll become very clear to you then . pilar : it 's not that simple , gwen . gwen : yes , it is . luis : hey . what 's going on ? pilar : there 's a complication with theresa 's pregnancy . there 's not enough room for her to carry both babies . dr. russell says that they 're competing for nourishment and oxygen and they 're dying . sheridan : oh , my god . luis : well , there 's got to be something that they can do . pilar : yeah , dr . russell says if they take one fetus , the other one will be able to survive . sheridan : oh , what a horrible choice to have to make . pilar : yes , it is . luis : theresa . theresa : oh , luis . luis : hey . theresa : how could god do this to me ? luis : i do n't know . sheridan : gwen , i am so sorry . gwen : i do n't know what i 'm going to do . i mean , to lose one baby would be bad enough , but i 'm going to lose two babies ? sheridan : oh , honey , i know , i know . ethan : we 're going to get through this , ok ? gwen : how are we going to get through this ? theresa , please . please . i 'll do anything , anything you want . i 'll pay you . i 'll give you anything under the sun , whatever you want ! theresa , please ! please do n't let both of my babies die , theresa , please ! please give ethan and i the chance to be parents . please . ethan : theresa , have you made up your mind ? do you know what you 're going to do ? theresa : yes . i know exactly what i have to do . ethan : theresa , what have you decided ? theresa : i 've decided that i need to talk to my family . ok , this is really confusing for me , so i want to do the right thing , but i do n't what it is , and if i can just talk to them and only them , i 'll figure it out . gwen : but , theresa , this does n't just affect only you . these are our babies . theresa : gwen , i know whose babies they are . gwen : theresa , time is of the essence here . dr. russell said if we do n't perform this procedure immediately , we are going to lose both these babies . theresa : it 's not just any procedure , gwen . gwen : theresa , these are my babies we 're talking about ! pilar : and it 's theresa 's soul that you 're asking her to put in jeopardy by killing one of them . gwen : and you would rather she kill both of them ? theresa : ok , please just stop this , ok ? luis : all right , theresa asked for some time alone with us . i think we should all honor that . ethan : yeah . come on , come on , we 'll wait outside . gwen : we ca n't just give up , ethan . we can not leave here until she sees our side . theresa , please . ethan : theresa has heard our side , she knows how we feel , and repeating it over and over again is n't going to help , so come on . gwen : theresa , please , please , please choose to let one of these babies live . theresa , you have to . please ! ethan : honey , come on . theresa : what do you think i should do ? luis : i think you should just take a couple of deep breaths and calm down . theresa : ok . pilar : yeah . theresa : you know what ? maybe i should just do what ethan and gwen want . pilar : no . you can't . you ca n't kill one of these babies . mija , the church teaches us to value all life . theresa : mama , if i do n't go through the procedure and i wind up killing both these babies , how is that valuing life ? luis : well , you have a difficult decision to make , theresa . and i know how close you must feel to these babies you 're carrying , even though they 're not your own flesh and blood . pilar : for you to keep these babies that you are carrying -- you do n't even know if one of these babies is yours with ethan . they can both be from gwen 's eggs . theresa : mama , i do n't care who the biological mother or mothers are . the facts ethan is the father and these babies are in my stomach , ok ? alistair : the choice is yours , martin . but if you destroy luis and sheridan 's relationship , he 'll never forgive you . martin : you 've done everything in your power to break them up . why do you suddenly care if they stay together ? alistair : i don't . in fact , you 'd be doing me a favor . but you do care , martin . you claim you still love your family . martin : i do love them . alistair : then why are you so eager to destroy them all by revealing the secret of the gazebo ? martin : because unlike you i do n't enjoy inflicting pain on innocent people . i do n't want to hurt pilar and my children any more than i have . i 'll do whatever it takes to save katherine , and hopefully in time my family will understand . alistair : like i said , still the big - talker . martin : and now i 'm through talking . the choice is yours , alistair . drop the charges against katherine or i call sam bennett , i tell him to have a crew start digging up the gazebo . bad cold and would cough some . singer : you are my passion for life gwen : honey , it 's like we 're losing sarah all over again , but it 's worse this time . ethan , if i lose both of these babies , i am not going to survive it . ethan : stop . do n't you talk that way . do n't you talk that way . theresa 's going to make the right decision . we just have to -- we have to give her some time so she can feel like it 's her own choice , gwen . gwen : but this is not her decision to make ! these are not her children ! they 're our children ! theresa has no connection at all to these babies , no connection whatsoever ! theresa : if gwen had n't gotten pregnant , you would be married to me right now . ethan : theresa , that 's beside the point . theresa : ethan , no , it 's not . you only married gwen because she was pregnant . but she 's not pregnant now . i am , ethan , with your children . i know what ethan and gwen want me to do . it 's just overwhelming . luis : well , we should calmly look at all the options . pilar : there 's only one option -- to have faith and to leave it in god 's hands . only he has the right to take a life . theresa : but , mama , dr . russell said that if i do n't go through with this procedure that both these babies will die . pilar : doctors are n't always right , theresa . they did n't ink i 'd survive my blood disease , and here i am . theresa : but , mama , i mean , what if they are right this time ? what if allow a baby to die then that could have lived ? and what if i do go through with this , how do the doctors choose which one it should be ? and if the one that they choose -- what if that baby could have -- it could have found the cure for cancer , mama ! it could have been the next beethoven ! pilar : oh , h. which is why you have to leave it to god . you have to pray for god 's will , whatever it is , mija , and then accept it , and only then will you be able to find hope for peace . ok ? sheridan : hey , may i speak with you ? sheridan : look , you need time with your sister . i 'm just going to go down to the jail and talk to mrs . wheeler . luis : oh , well , if you wait a little while , i can go with you . sheridan : no , i really think that i should go and do this alone . besides , theresa really needs you right now . she needs your help . she needs your support in whatever decision she makes . luis : all right , well , you just -- you promise me you 'll be careful , ok ? sheridan : i promise . luis : i love you so much . sheridan : i love you . luis : all right . sheridan : wish me luck . luis : luck . sheridan 's voice : why would i suddenly remember mrs . wheeler when i saw luis hug pilar ? i have to talk to her . i have to make her tell me what the connection is between us . woman : put a lid on it or you 're all going to answer to me . do n't mind them , honey . they 're all talk . they 're moving on to the county jail in a few minutes , anyway . katherine : really ? woman : just do whatever you need to do to make sure that your buddy the police chief gets you out of this holding cell and into your n private cell . you never know who you 're going to get stuck with . katherine : you seem to know your way around here . have you been here long ? woman : oh , nah . here ? just passing through . i 'm here from statesville to testify in my old cellmate 's trial . hmm . now , for my own safety , i 'm getting transferred to a different facility . maybe if i come up for parole , they 'll take this all into consideration . you 're pretty classy for this joint . oh , relax . i 'm not like corinne . i like guys . so , what are you in for ? shoplifting ? unpaid parking tickets ? katherine : i tried to kill alistair crane . woman : the most powerful man in the world . you do n't mess around , do you ? what did he do to you ? katherine : destroyed my life . i was able to live with that , but he tried to destroy my children , my daughter . and i could n't let him do it . i couldn't . i had to stop him . woman : i know tt one . my husband -- he messed around with my little girl , but he 'll never do that again . i killed the bastard . i may end up spending the rest of my life behind bars , but my daughter 's safe . that 's all that matters . unrepentant ! that 's what the judge called me when he gave me the maximum . damn straight . katherine : the only regret i have is that i failed , that alistair crane is still breathing , because now he can really hurt my daughter , as well as this man who 's been very , very good to me . martin : time 's up . i 'm calling sam bennett . [ alistair chuckles ] martin : that 's right , laugh it up , funny man , because you 're going down . you 're going to finally pay for your sins . what the hell 's so damn funny ? alistair : you are , trying to be so honorable when we both know that you 're as bad as you claim i am . you 're worse . you abandoned your family , fitzgerald . martin : you son of a -- alistair : even i never did that . martin : i 'll kill you . alistair : no , no , you wo n't , because i and only i can give you the one thing that you want more than revenge , more than katherine 's freedom . i can give you your family back . oh , yeah . that got your attention , did n't it ? it 's written all over your face . you want that more than anything . well , you wo n't get it by blackmailing me about the gazebo . oh , yes , i can reunite you with your family like that , martin . you do exactly as i say and you 'll be the happy little lopez - fitzgerald familia once again . so what 's it going to be , main ? do you want my help ? do you want to be joyously reunited with your family ? alistair : what 's the matter , martin ? cat got your tongue ? or are you all wrapped up in a fantasy of the happy family reunion ? martin : i 'm the one in control here , alistair , not you . one call to sam bennett and you 're finished . alistair : well , of course . but then you 'll never see your family again . and you want that more than you want to see me destroyed . martin : how would you do it , reunite us ? alistair : oh , we 'll come up with some explanation for your new face , or maybe even go back to your old one . and then i 'll arrange a triumphant return to harmony . you 'll blame me for spiriting you away to some desert isle all those years ago in revenge for some imagined slight , and you 'll tl a rip - roaring tale of your death - defying escape and your heroic journey home . of course , there will be no evidence against me , so there will be no charges made . but your family wo n't care . they 'll be more than happy to accept your version of the tale . i am , after all , the great satan in their eyes . all they 'll care about is having you back . can you imagine the look on your children 's faces when they see you again ? can you imagine the look on pilar 's face ? paloma : hi , papa ! luis : i 'm so glad you 're home . theresa : we missed you , papa . pilar : martin , my darling , i always knew you 'd come back to us . martin : and all you want in return is for me to never mention anything about that gazebo ? alistair : no . that part goes without saying . in return for your family , there 's something else i want . you will sacrifice katherine . woman : take my advice , honey -- whatever goes down , do n't lose your daughter . katherine : what do you mean ? woman : after i killed my husband , my daughter never forgave me . katherine : but you did it to protect her . woman : well , no matter what kind of monster he was , he was still her daddy . since that day , she has n't spoken to me , has n't written , has n't visited . do n't let that happen to you , because it 's worse than anything a judge can dish out . katherine : oh , it must be . woman : you 're going to get the maximum . the crane machine will see to that . so hold on tight to your daughter . pull her close and do n't let her go . otherwise , you 're going to end up like me , rotting away the rest of my life in jail alone , never , ever seeing the daughter i killed my husband to protect . sam : come on , rosie , it 's time to go . they 're taking you to your new home . katherine : thank you . rosie : remember what i told you , honey . do n't let anyone or anything keep you from the ones you love . otherwise , you 're going to regret it the rest of your life . sam : come on , rosie . i 'll be back in a minute . katherine : how can i hold on tight to sheridan when she does n't even know i 'm her mother ? [ footsteps ] katherine : chief bennett ? sheridan : hi , mrs . wheeler . katherine : oh , sheridan . i 'm so glad you 're here . gwen : she 's going to do it to me again , ethan . i can feel it . i can feel it . theresa 's going to do whatever she can to make sure that i never have a family . ethan : no , no , come here . no , we do n't know that . we do n't know that , and she 's agonizing over this just as much as we are . gwen : but , ethan , these are not her babies to agonize over . do you hear me ? ethan : maybe not , but she 's been carrying them for months and she 's bonded with them and she does n't want either of them to die . gwen : she will if she knows it 'll kill me . i mean , that 's why she knocked out our surrogate and took her place . ethan : honey , that 's -- gwen : she wanted this to happen ! ethan : that 's ridiculous ! she could not have foreseen all these complications . gwen : god , ethan , all i ever wanted was just to have a family with you ! ethan : i know . i know that . gwen : if theresa does n't have this procedure , my dreams of having a family are going to die along with those two babies ! ethan : do n't you say that . do n't you say that . there is no reason for you to say that , and that 's not going to happen , but you have got to calm down . gwen : ethan , how can i possibly calm down , ok , because all of my dreams my whole life could be over in a minute . my entire life rests in theresa 's hands . theresa : so what should i do , luis ? luis : no one can tell you that . i wish i could . i 'm sorry . you know , i wish i had a crystal ball , you know , that would tell me the right decision , but i don't . look , i want you to know that whatever you decide i 'm going to stand by you , ok ? theresa : yeah . i mean , you 've always stood by me . you always stood by our family , ever since papa left , and antonio , and you were just a kid . but you know what ? i never thought of you that way , you know what i mean ? you were always there for all of us . luis : someone had to be . pilar : you sacrificed so much for us , mijo . luis : it was n't a sacrifice . i love my family . theresa : luis , where 's sheridan ? luis : she just wanted to give us some time alone . theresa : i 'm coming between you guys now , right ? luis : no , not at all . theresa : no , luis -- luis : no . theresa : please , you know what ? you have your own life now , right ? you do n't always have to be here to fix my problems , please . luis : if not me , then who ? theresa : well , papa . i mean , he should be here for me , right ? it 's his job . luis : yeah . theresa : he should be helping me . pilar : theresa , don't . theresa : but he 's not , mama , because he did n't care . pilar : that 's not true . he loved us . theresa : oh , come on , mama , please . he abandoned us . he took off and he never came back , and you know why ? because he does n't love us , mama , not at all ! martin : i wo n't do it . i wo n't sacrifice katherine . i wo n't let her rot in jail for the rest of her life . alistair : you 're jumping to conclusions . i have n't decided what my plans for katherine are yet . but you do n't have to worry about that . you worry about what you want . martin : i wo n't abandon katherine . alistair : why not ? abandoning people is what you do best . that was a cheap shot . martin : yeah , no less than i 'd expect . alistair : the point is whatever 's happened , katherine is still my wife . i 've never lost sight of that . i 'll take care of her . do you really think that i would let mrs . alistair crane go to prison ? no , you worry about your own family . think of how good it will be to hold them all again , to erase all the pain they 've suffered , to be the husband and father they 've wanted and needed , to be a grandfather to little martin , little ethan , and maria . it 's been a lot of years , martin , but you can make up for all the lost time . all you have to do is forget about katherine . let me take care of my own wife and you 'll getour family back . sheridan : i brought you some stuff i thought you might need -- some good soap , tissues , a toothbrush . katherine : thank you . sam : we usually do n't allow visitors before the arraignment . sheridan : thank you for making the exception , sam . katherine : thank you . sheridan : thanks . sam : you know , mrs . wheeler , i 've been a cop for a long time , and i think i 'm a pretty good judge of character . good people do n't try to kill other people without a reason . they certainly do n't try it twice . katherine : i have nothing to say . sam : alistair crane has his legal machine working on overdrive trying to put you away for life . now , i know firsthand what he 's capable of . sheridan : yeah , we all do . sam : let me help you defend yourself . is there anything you can tell me about why you tried to kill him , anything at all ? is there some sort of connection between you and alistair , something from your past ? mrs. wheeler , talk to me . give me something to take to the d.a . so i can at least make a case for leniency . katherine : there 's nothing to tell . i had no history with alistair crane . he did nothing to me . sam : i do n't believe you . katherine : it 's the truth . sam : if you change your mind , you know where i 'll be . call the guard when you 're ready . sheridan : thanks , sam . katherine : thank you . sheridan : so , you want me to put these somewhere , or would rather just keep them in the bag ? katherine : it was very considerate of you to bring those things to me , sheridan , but i know that that 's not the reason that you came here . sheridan : no . no , it 's not . katherine : so ? sheridan : look , i -- i 've felt a connection to you ever since we saw each other in mexico . i mean , i 've told you that before . katherine : yes , you have . sheridan : and over time now , this connection , this feeling has just gotten stronger and stronger , and it 's almost magnetic . and i know that you can feel it , too . i can see it . and i think that you know the reason for it . so if you could please tell me , mrs . wheeler -- [ katherine sighs ] sheridan : why do i feel this connection towards you ? why ? m ready ! - i do n't think so . gwen : why is god doing this to us , honey ? all i ever wanted was to be married and have children with you , and it 's never going to happen . ethan : hey , i know , i know . calm down , ok ? gwen : i do n't know what i 'm going to do . i mean -- i mean , i 'm losing everything . i -- ethan : no , no , you 're not . honey , you 're not . you 're not losing me , you 're not losing us , and whatever theresa decides , whatever it is , we 're going to get through it together . gwen : ethan , she -- ethan : but you ca n't flip out on me , ok ? gwen : ethan , theresa killed little sarah , and now she 's going to kill these two babies , too , and every dream that i ever had of having a family is going to go down with those two babies ! ethan : honey -- gwen : i 'm just feeling a little -- ethan : what is it ? all right , honey , i 'm calling a nurse , ok ? gwen : a little cold ! i do n't know -- ethan -- ethan : nurse ! give me a nurse ! luis : you know , theresa 's right . papa should have been here . you know , he should have been here for a lot of things and he was n't and he isn't . theresa : he left , mama , because he does n't love us . pilar : no , that 's not true . there 's an explanation . luis : oh , we 're supposed to believe that after all these years ? there 's a place in hell for men who abandon their families , and he 's got a place there . he 's got his name written all over it . pilar : do n't talk that way about your father . he is a good man , and he loves his family . he would have never left of his own free will . luis : oh -- theresa : mama , when are you going to stop repeating that tired old line ? pilar : until he returns , theresa , because i have faith . theresa : do you have faith , mama , or are you just in dial ? you know what ? i am glad that papa 's not here . i take back what i said , because i do n't want his help , i do n't need his help . he deserted us , mama . look how hard i have fought to keep little ethan in my life after everything that has happened ! look how hard i am fighting to save these babies ! but did papa fight ? no , he did n't , mama ! so you know what ? i want him to stay out of my life ! i do n't anything to do with him ! i hate him ! pilar : theresa , please . luis : she 's right . papa made his choice . you know something ? i hope he never comes back , because i do n't ever want to see him again . alistair : imagine what it would be like to return to your family . imagine what it would be like to be a father again . theresa : it looks good . looks real good . martin : oh , yeah . luis : well , this year , for the first year in a very , very , very long time , the lopez - fitzgeralds finally have reason to give thanks . welcome home , papa . pilar : yes . theresa : hear , hear . all our prayers have been answered . paloma : even alistair crane could n't keep the family apart forever . luis : that 's right . we are truly blessed , and we 're a family again . i love you . martin : and i love you , too , son . i love you all . theresa : me , too . [ luis laughs ] martin : especially my beautiful wife . theresa : hey . paloma : kiss , kiss , kiss ! martin : well , hey -- paloma : whoo ! theresa : all right ! alistair : you can have it all , martin . everything you left behind can be yours again . all you have to do is sacrifice katherine . sheridan : who are you , mrs . wheeler ? why do i feel so connected to you ? katherine : i -- you have a very active imagination , sheridan . i like you a great deal . but we 're not connected , not at all . sheridan : i 'm sorry , but you are lying . i can feel it , and i can see it in your eyes . and i 'm not leaving here until i find out what 's really going on . rosie : remember what i told you , honey . do n't let anyone or anything keep you from the ones you love . otherwise , you 're going to regret it the rest of your life . katherine : oh , sheridan . sheridan , i have so much to tell you . [ next_on ] katherine : i 'm not ellen wheeler . sheridan : then who are you ? katherine : i 'm your mother , sheridan . ivy : do you have something else to feel guilty about ? theresa : now , luis is right . if papa is still alive , he better stay far away from here . martin : it 's time i told luis the truth about who i really am . | alistair tells martin that if he leaves katherine to him and does n't tell about what 's under the gazebo , he will make sure that martin is happily reunited with his family . sam takes katherine to jail . gwen begs theresa to save one of the babies . theresa talks to her famly about it . gwen freaks out while talking to ethan about the babies and suddenly collapses . luis and theresa agree that they hate martin and would n't welcome him back since he has deserted them for all those years , which upsets pilar . katherine meets another prisoner who killed her husband to protect her daughter . the woman urges her not to lose her daughter no matter what . sheridan visits katherine in jail and demands to know why she feels this connection to her . katherine at first denies it but then seems ready to tell the truth . | <s>[INST] martin : i 'm serious , alistair . drop the charges against katherine , see to it that she does n't spend a day in jail for the attempt on your life , or i swear i 'll tell the whole world what 's buried under that gazebo of yours . alistair : you would n't dare . martin : watch me . you 'll rot in jail for the rest of your damn life , maybe even get the death penalty . alistair : still the tough - talker are n't you , fitzgerald ? but you wo n't tell anyone what 's buried under that gazebo , because if you do , your life will be over , too . martin : it 'll be worth it . alistair : perhaps . but if the secret of the gazebo comes out , it wo n't be just our lives . what do you think it 'll do to pilar and your family ? sacrificing your own life to bring me down is one thing , but have n't you hurt your family enough ? do you really want to completely destroy them ? sheridan : we will get you the best lawyers , mrs . wheeler . luis : i 'll pull in every string i can to make your jail stay as easy as possible . katherine : thank you , luis . luis : and as soon as bail is set , we 'll get out of there , ok ? sam : no , i would n't count on that . my guess is there wo n't be bail set this time . i mean , after a second attempt on alistair 's life , it 's going to be a hard sell to convince any judge to set bail , especially if he gets his old pal judge reilly involved . he 's intent on keeping you behind bars . sheridan : well , it wo n't work . we will get you out . luis : yeah . katherine : i do n't think that 's going to happen , sheridan . i know far too well what alistair 's capable of . sam : look , we have to go , mrs . wheeler . sheridan : wait , i have so many questions to ask her . sam : and i have a few of my own . luis : wow . you 're really convinced there 's some sort of connection between you and mrs . wheeler , huh ? sheridan : yeah . like i said before , i do n't know why . i do n't even know if it 's a good connection or a bad connection . but i 'm going to find out . i have to . gwen : theresa , i know this is a terrible decision for you to have to make . it 's horrible for me , too . i mean , these s are my babies , but you 're the one who has to agree to have the procedure done . theresa , you have to , ok ? you have to , because if you do n't , both of those babies are going to die , and if botof those babies die , then i will never , ever , ever be able to have a biological child of my own . theresa : gwen , i do n't know . gwen : theresa , if there was a way that we could save both of these babies , i would do it in a heartbeat . i would give up an organ . i would spend my last penny . i would do anything to be able to have both of these babies . but we ca n't do that , but we have the chance to save at least one . you 're a mother , theresa . please , please , please do n't take away my chance at being a mother ! oh , please . alistair : is it really worth revealing what 's under that gazebo , martin ? yes , you 'd destroy me , yes , i 'd go to jail , perhaps even be put to death . but whatever happens , you 'd be right there beside me . imagine pilar 's face as she watched that -- and luis and miguel and theresa and paloma . imagine the shame your three grandchildren would have to grow up with . martin : you son of a bitch . alistair : did n't you already cause your family enough pain when you ran off with my wife and abandoned them without a word , left them to struggle emotionally and financially all these years ? martin : you 've caused them far more pain than i did , taking their jobs , their homes , killing antonio . alistair : none of that would have happened had you been here to protect them . martin : i had no choice ! alistair : there 's always a choice ! you have one now . luis loves sheridan . he want to marry her . she 's his whole world . martin : what are you threatening ? alistair : if you reveal the secret of the gazebo , you and i both know sheridan will never marry luis . now , do you really want to do that , after all the pain you 've already caused him ? are you prepared to do the one thing even i could n't accomplish ? are you prepared to destroy his relationship with the woman he loves ? luis : well , i do n't know how you 're going to find out anything about this connection that you feel with mrs . wheeler . sheridan : neither do i , but there 's got to be a way to get her to open up . luis : yeah . well , i just do n't understand how she can hate alistair so much . sheridan : well , he did try to kill her back in the jungle . luis : i know that . it just seems like it 's more than that . it seems like she 's hellbent on protecting you from alistair at any cost . sheridan : including her own life . luis : i just do n't get it . how could she have developed feelings for you so quickly ? we only met the wheelers this summer . sheridan : you know , i think i 'm going to go stop by the jail , bring mrs . wheeler some things she might need . luis : well , i 'll go with you . there can be some real lowlifes in those cells . sheridan : i 'll be fine . besides , sam is there . i really think that i should talk to her alone , you know , woman to woman , try to get her to open up and tell me why she tried to kill my father , why i feel such a connection with her . woman : ooh ! hey , hey , hey ! second woman : a new feel . sam : hey , hey , hey , let 's keep it down . let 's keep it down , all right ? woman : oh , come to visit us . sam : this will be your holding cell tonight . katherine : fine . woman : ooh . sam : hey . try to relax , ok ? i 'll be back in a minute . woman : it 's ok . you going to come back and check on me later , too , chief ? you come back and check on me later , chief . nice to see you again . well , sweet little thing . katherine : oh , god . woman : oh , god ai n't going to help you in here , honey . but i can . second woman : and i ca n't wait to mess up that pretty , rich face . gwen : theresa , you have to agree to this procedure . you have to give ethan and me the chance to be parents . theresa : gwen , i do n't know . it 's just too confusing . gwen : it does n't have to be . think about what life would be like if you were never able to be a mother . it 'll become very clear to you then . pilar : it 's not that simple , gwen . gwen : yes , it is . luis : hey . what 's going on ? pilar : there 's a complication with theresa 's pregnancy . there 's not enough room for her to carry both babies . dr. russell says that they 're competing for nourishment and oxygen and they 're dying . sheridan : oh , my god . luis : well , there 's got to be something that they can do . pilar : yeah , dr . russell says if they take one fetus , the other one will be able to survive . sheridan : oh , what a horrible choice to have to make . pilar : yes , it is . luis : theresa . theresa : oh , luis . luis : hey . theresa : how could god do this to me ? luis : i do n't know . sheridan : gwen , i am so sorry . gwen : i do n't know what i 'm going to do . i mean , to lose one baby would be bad enough , but i 'm going to lose two babies ? sheridan : oh , honey , i know , i know . ethan : we 're going to get through this , ok ? gwen : how are we going to get through this ? theresa , please . please . i 'll do anything , anything you want . i 'll pay you . i 'll give you anything under the sun , whatever you want ! theresa , please ! please do n't let both of my babies die , theresa , please ! please give ethan and i the chance to be parents . please . ethan : theresa , have you made up your mind ? do you know what you 're going to do ? theresa : yes . i know exactly what i have to do . ethan : theresa , what have you decided ? theresa : i 've decided that i need to talk to my family . ok , this is really confusing for me , so i want to do the right thing , but i do n't what it is , and if i can just talk to them and only them , i 'll figure it out . gwen : but , theresa , this does n't just affect only you . these are our babies . theresa : gwen , i know whose babies they are . gwen : theresa , time is of the essence here . dr. russell said if we do n't perform this procedure immediately , we are going to lose both these babies . theresa : it 's not just any procedure , gwen . gwen : theresa , these are my babies we 're talking about ! pilar : and it 's theresa 's soul that you 're asking her to put in jeopardy by killing one of them . gwen : and you would rather she kill both of them ? theresa : ok , please just stop this , ok ? luis : all right , theresa asked for some time alone with us . i think we should all honor that . ethan : yeah . come on , come on , we 'll wait outside . gwen : we ca n't just give up , ethan . we can not leave here until she sees our side . theresa , please . ethan : theresa has heard our side , she knows how we feel , and repeating it over and over again is n't going to help , so come on . gwen : theresa , please , please , please choose to let one of these babies live . theresa , you have to . please ! ethan : honey , come on . theresa : what do you think i should do ? luis : i think you should just take a couple of deep breaths and calm down . theresa : ok . pilar : yeah . theresa : you know what ? maybe i should just do what ethan and gwen want . pilar : no . you can't . you ca n't kill one of these babies . mija , the church teaches us to value all life . theresa : mama , if i do n't go through the procedure and i wind up killing both these babies , how is that valuing life ? luis : well , you have a difficult decision to make , theresa . and i know how close you must feel to these babies you 're carrying , even though they 're not your own flesh and blood . pilar : for you to keep these babies that you are carrying -- you do n't even know if one of these babies is yours with ethan . they can both be from gwen 's eggs . theresa : mama , i do n't care who the biological mother or mothers are . the facts ethan is the father and these babies are in my stomach , ok ? alistair : the choice is yours , martin . but if you destroy luis and sheridan 's relationship , he 'll never forgive you . martin : you 've done everything in your power to break them up . why do you suddenly care if they stay together ? alistair : i don't . in fact , you 'd be doing me a favor . but you do care , martin . you claim you still love your family . martin : i do love them . alistair : then why are you so eager to destroy them all by revealing the secret of the gazebo ? martin : because unlike you i do n't enjoy inflicting pain on innocent people . i do n't want to hurt pilar and my children any more than i have . i 'll do whatever it takes to save katherine , and hopefully in time my family will understand . alistair : like i said , still the big - talker . martin : and now i 'm through talking . the choice is yours , alistair . drop the charges against katherine or i call sam bennett , i tell him to have a crew start digging up the gazebo . bad cold and would cough some . singer : you are my passion for life gwen : honey , it 's like we 're losing sarah all over again , but it 's worse this time . ethan , if i lose both of these babies , i am not going to survive it . ethan : stop . do n't you talk that way . do n't you talk that way . theresa 's going to make the right decision . we just have to -- we have to give her some time so she can feel like it 's her own choice , gwen . gwen : but this is not her decision to make ! these are not her children ! they 're our children ! theresa has no connection at all to these babies , no connection whatsoever ! theresa : if gwen had n't gotten pregnant , you would be married to me right now . ethan : theresa , that 's beside the point . theresa : ethan , no , it 's not . you only married gwen because she was pregnant . but she 's not pregnant now . i am , ethan , with your children . i know what ethan and gwen want me to do . it 's just overwhelming . luis : well , we should calmly look at all the options . pilar : there 's only one option -- to have faith and to leave it in god 's hands . only he has the right to take a life . theresa : but , mama , dr . russell said that if i do n't go through with this procedure that both these babies will die . pilar : doctors are n't always right , theresa . they did n't ink i 'd survive my blood disease , and here i am . theresa : but , mama , i mean , what if they are right this time ? what if allow a baby to die then that could have lived ? and what if i do go through with this , how do the doctors choose which one it should be ? and if the one that they choose -- what if that baby could have -- it could have found the cure for cancer , mama ! it could have been the next beethoven ! pilar : oh , h. which is why you have to leave it to god . you have to pray for god 's will , whatever it is , mija , and then accept it , and only then will you be able to find hope for peace . ok ? sheridan : hey , may i speak with you ? sheridan : look , you need time with your sister . i 'm just going to go down to the jail and talk to mrs . wheeler . luis : oh , well , if you wait a little while , i can go with you . sheridan : no , i really think that i should go and do this alone . besides , theresa really needs you right now . she needs your help . she needs your support in whatever decision she makes . luis : all right , well , you just -- you promise me you 'll be careful , ok ? sheridan : i promise . luis : i love you so much . sheridan : i love you . luis : all right . sheridan : wish me luck . luis : luck . sheridan 's voice : why would i suddenly remember mrs . wheeler when i saw luis hug pilar ? i have to talk to her . i have to make her tell me what the connection is between us . woman : put a lid on it or you 're all going to answer to me . do n't mind them , honey . they 're all talk . they 're moving on to the county jail in a few minutes , anyway . katherine : really ? woman : just do whatever you need to do to make sure that your buddy the police chief gets you out of this holding cell and into your n private cell . you never know who you 're going to get stuck with . katherine : you seem to know your way around here . have you been here long ? woman : oh , nah . here ? just passing through . i 'm here from statesville to testify in my old cellmate 's trial . hmm . now , for my own safety , i 'm getting transferred to a different facility . maybe if i come up for parole , they 'll take this all into consideration . you 're pretty classy for this joint . oh , relax . i 'm not like corinne . i like guys . so , what are you in for ? shoplifting ? unpaid parking tickets ? katherine : i tried to kill alistair crane . woman : the most powerful man in the world . you do n't mess around , do you ? what did he do to you ? katherine : destroyed my life . i was able to live with that , but he tried to destroy my children , my daughter . and i could n't let him do it . i couldn't . i had to stop him . woman : i know tt one . my husband -- he messed around with my little girl , but he 'll never do that again . i killed the bastard . i may end up spending the rest of my life behind bars , but my daughter 's safe . that 's all that matters . unrepentant ! that 's what the judge called me when he gave me the maximum . damn straight . katherine : the only regret i have is that i failed , that alistair crane is still breathing , because now he can really hurt my daughter , as well as this man who 's been very , very good to me . martin : time 's up . i 'm calling sam bennett . [ alistair chuckles ] martin : that 's right , laugh it up , funny man , because you 're going down . you 're going to finally pay for your sins . what the hell 's so damn funny ? alistair : you are , trying to be so honorable when we both know that you 're as bad as you claim i am . you 're worse . you abandoned your family , fitzgerald . martin : you son of a -- alistair : even i never did that . martin : i 'll kill you . alistair : no , no , you wo n't , because i and only i can give you the one thing that you want more than revenge , more than katherine 's freedom . i can give you your family back . oh , yeah . that got your attention , did n't it ? it 's written all over your face . you want that more than anything . well , you wo n't get it by blackmailing me about the gazebo . oh , yes , i can reunite you with your family like that , martin . you do exactly as i say and you 'll be the happy little lopez - fitzgerald familia once again . so what 's it going to be , main ? do you want my help ? do you want to be joyously reunited with your family ? alistair : what 's the matter , martin ? cat got your tongue ? or are you all wrapped up in a fantasy of the happy family reunion ? martin : i 'm the one in control here , alistair , not you . one call to sam bennett and you 're finished . alistair : well , of course . but then you 'll never see your family again . and you want that more than you want to see me destroyed . martin : how would you do it , reunite us ? alistair : oh , we 'll come up with some explanation for your new face , or maybe even go back to your old one . and then i 'll arrange a triumphant return to harmony . you 'll blame me for spiriting you away to some desert isle all those years ago in revenge for some imagined slight , and you 'll tl a rip - roaring tale of your death - defying escape and your heroic journey home . of course , there will be no evidence against me , so there will be no charges made . but your family wo n't care . they 'll be more than happy to accept your version of the tale . i am , after all , the great satan in their eyes . all they 'll care about is having you back . can you imagine the look on your children 's faces when they see you again ? can you imagine the look on pilar 's face ? paloma : hi , papa ! luis : i 'm so glad you 're home . theresa : we missed you , papa . pilar : martin , my darling , i always knew you 'd come back to us . martin : and all you want in return is for me to never mention anything about that gazebo ? alistair : no . that part goes without saying . in return for your family , there 's something else i want . you will sacrifice katherine . woman : take my advice , honey -- whatever goes down , do n't lose your daughter . katherine : what do you mean ? woman : after i killed my husband , my daughter never forgave me . katherine : but you did it to protect her . woman : well , no matter what kind of monster he was , he was still her daddy . since that day , she has n't spoken to me , has n't written , has n't visited . do n't let that happen to you , because it 's worse than anything a judge can dish out . katherine : oh , it must be . woman : you 're going to get the maximum . the crane machine will see to that . so hold on tight to your daughter . pull her close and do n't let her go . otherwise , you 're going to end up like me , rotting away the rest of my life in jail alone , never , ever seeing the daughter i killed my husband to protect . sam : come on , rosie , it 's time to go . they 're taking you to your new home . katherine : thank you . rosie : remember what i told you , honey . do n't let anyone or anything keep you from the ones you love . otherwise , you 're going to regret it the rest of your life . sam : come on , rosie . i 'll be back in a minute . katherine : how can i hold on tight to sheridan when she does n't even know i 'm her mother ? [ footsteps ] katherine : chief bennett ? sheridan : hi , mrs . wheeler . katherine : oh , sheridan . i 'm so glad you 're here . gwen : she 's going to do it to me again , ethan . i can feel it . i can feel it . theresa 's going to do whatever she can to make sure that i never have a family . ethan : no , no , come here . no , we do n't know that . we do n't know that , and she 's agonizing over this just as much as we are . gwen : but , ethan , these are not her babies to agonize over . do you hear me ? ethan : maybe not , but she 's been carrying them for months and she 's bonded with them and she does n't want either of them to die . gwen : she will if she knows it 'll kill me . i mean , that 's why she knocked out our surrogate and took her place . ethan : honey , that 's -- gwen : she wanted this to happen ! ethan : that 's ridiculous ! she could not have foreseen all these complications . gwen : god , ethan , all i ever wanted was just to have a family with you ! ethan : i know . i know that . gwen : if theresa does n't have this procedure , my dreams of having a family are going to die along with those two babies ! ethan : do n't you say that . do n't you say that . there is no reason for you to say that , and that 's not going to happen , but you have got to calm down . gwen : ethan , how can i possibly calm down , ok , because all of my dreams my whole life could be over in a minute . my entire life rests in theresa 's hands . theresa : so what should i do , luis ? luis : no one can tell you that . i wish i could . i 'm sorry . you know , i wish i had a crystal ball , you know , that would tell me the right decision , but i don't . look , i want you to know that whatever you decide i 'm going to stand by you , ok ? theresa : yeah . i mean , you 've always stood by me . you always stood by our family , ever since papa left , and antonio , and you were just a kid . but you know what ? i never thought of you that way , you know what i mean ? you were always there for all of us . luis : someone had to be . pilar : you sacrificed so much for us , mijo . luis : it was n't a sacrifice . i love my family . theresa : luis , where 's sheridan ? luis : she just wanted to give us some time alone . theresa : i 'm coming between you guys now , right ? luis : no , not at all . theresa : no , luis -- luis : no . theresa : please , you know what ? you have your own life now , right ? you do n't always have to be here to fix my problems , please . luis : if not me , then who ? theresa : well , papa . i mean , he should be here for me , right ? it 's his job . luis : yeah . theresa : he should be helping me . pilar : theresa , don't . theresa : but he 's not , mama , because he did n't care . pilar : that 's not true . he loved us . theresa : oh , come on , mama , please . he abandoned us . he took off and he never came back , and you know why ? because he does n't love us , mama , not at all ! martin : i wo n't do it . i wo n't sacrifice katherine . i wo n't let her rot in jail for the rest of her life . alistair : you 're jumping to conclusions . i have n't decided what my plans for katherine are yet . but you do n't have to worry about that . you worry about what you want . martin : i wo n't abandon katherine . alistair : why not ? abandoning people is what you do best . that was a cheap shot . martin : yeah , no less than i 'd expect . alistair : the point is whatever 's happened , katherine is still my wife . i 've never lost sight of that . i 'll take care of her . do you really think that i would let mrs . alistair crane go to prison ? no , you worry about your own family . think of how good it will be to hold them all again , to erase all the pain they 've suffered , to be the husband and father they 've wanted and needed , to be a grandfather to little martin , little ethan , and maria . it 's been a lot of years , martin , but you can make up for all the lost time . all you have to do is forget about katherine . let me take care of my own wife and you 'll getour family back . sheridan : i brought you some stuff i thought you might need -- some good soap , tissues , a toothbrush . katherine : thank you . sam : we usually do n't allow visitors before the arraignment . sheridan : thank you for making the exception , sam . katherine : thank you . sheridan : thanks . sam : you know , mrs . wheeler , i 've been a cop for a long time , and i think i 'm a pretty good judge of character . good people do n't try to kill other people without a reason . they certainly do n't try it twice . katherine : i have nothing to say . sam : alistair crane has his legal machine working on overdrive trying to put you away for life . now , i know firsthand what he 's capable of . sheridan : yeah , we all do . sam : let me help you defend yourself . is there anything you can tell me about why you tried to kill him , anything at all ? is there some sort of connection between you and alistair , something from your past ? mrs. wheeler , talk to me . give me something to take to the d.a . so i can at least make a case for leniency . katherine : there 's nothing to tell . i had no history with alistair crane . he did nothing to me . sam : i do n't believe you . katherine : it 's the truth . sam : if you change your mind , you know where i 'll be . call the guard when you 're ready . sheridan : thanks , sam . katherine : thank you . sheridan : so , you want me to put these somewhere , or would rather just keep them in the bag ? katherine : it was very considerate of you to bring those things to me , sheridan , but i know that that 's not the reason that you came here . sheridan : no . no , it 's not . katherine : so ? sheridan : look , i -- i 've felt a connection to you ever since we saw each other in mexico . i mean , i 've told you that before . katherine : yes , you have . sheridan : and over time now , this connection , this feeling has just gotten stronger and stronger , and it 's almost magnetic . and i know that you can feel it , too . i can see it . and i think that you know the reason for it . so if you could please tell me , mrs . wheeler -- [ katherine sighs ] sheridan : why do i feel this connection towards you ? why ? m ready ! - i do n't think so . gwen : why is god doing this to us , honey ? all i ever wanted was to be married and have children with you , and it 's never going to happen . ethan : hey , i know , i know . calm down , ok ? gwen : i do n't know what i 'm going to do . i mean -- i mean , i 'm losing everything . i -- ethan : no , no , you 're not . honey , you 're not . you 're not losing me , you 're not losing us , and whatever theresa decides , whatever it is , we 're going to get through it together . gwen : ethan , she -- ethan : but you ca n't flip out on me , ok ? gwen : ethan , theresa killed little sarah , and now she 's going to kill these two babies , too , and every dream that i ever had of having a family is going to go down with those two babies ! ethan : honey -- gwen : i 'm just feeling a little -- ethan : what is it ? all right , honey , i 'm calling a nurse , ok ? gwen : a little cold ! i do n't know -- ethan -- ethan : nurse ! give me a nurse ! luis : you know , theresa 's right . papa should have been here . you know , he should have been here for a lot of things and he was n't and he isn't . theresa : he left , mama , because he does n't love us . pilar : no , that 's not true . there 's an explanation . luis : oh , we 're supposed to believe that after all these years ? there 's a place in hell for men who abandon their families , and he 's got a place there . he 's got his name written all over it . pilar : do n't talk that way about your father . he is a good man , and he loves his family . he would have never left of his own free will . luis : oh -- theresa : mama , when are you going to stop repeating that tired old line ? pilar : until he returns , theresa , because i have faith . theresa : do you have faith , mama , or are you just in dial ? you know what ? i am glad that papa 's not here . i take back what i said , because i do n't want his help , i do n't need his help . he deserted us , mama . look how hard i have fought to keep little ethan in my life after everything that has happened ! look how hard i am fighting to save these babies ! but did papa fight ? no , he did n't , mama ! so you know what ? i want him to stay out of my life ! i do n't anything to do with him ! i hate him ! pilar : theresa , please . luis : she 's right . papa made his choice . you know something ? i hope he never comes back , because i do n't ever want to see him again . alistair : imagine what it would be like to return to your family . imagine what it would be like to be a father again . theresa : it looks good . looks real good . martin : oh , yeah . luis : well , this year , for the first year in a very , very , very long time , the lopez - fitzgeralds finally have reason to give thanks . welcome home , papa . pilar : yes . theresa : hear , hear . all our prayers have been answered . paloma : even alistair crane could n't keep the family apart forever . luis : that 's right . we are truly blessed , and we 're a family again . i love you . martin : and i love you , too , son . i love you all . theresa : me , too . [ luis laughs ] martin : especially my beautiful wife . theresa : hey . paloma : kiss , kiss , kiss ! martin : well , hey -- paloma : whoo ! theresa : all right ! alistair : you can have it all , martin . everything you left behind can be yours again . all you have to do is sacrifice katherine . sheridan : who are you , mrs . wheeler ? why do i feel so connected to you ? katherine : i -- you have a very active imagination , sheridan . i like you a great deal . but we 're not connected , not at all . sheridan : i 'm sorry , but you are lying . i can feel it , and i can see it in your eyes . and i 'm not leaving here until i find out what 's really going on . rosie : remember what i told you , honey . do n't let anyone or anything keep you from the ones you love . otherwise , you 're going to regret it the rest of your life . katherine : oh , sheridan . sheridan , i have so much to tell you . [ next_on ] katherine : i 'm not ellen wheeler . sheridan : then who are you ? katherine : i 'm your mother , sheridan . ivy : do you have something else to feel guilty about ? theresa : now , luis is right . if papa is still alive , he better stay far away from here . martin : it 's time i told luis the truth about who i really am .Summarize.[/INST]alistair tells martin that if he leaves katherine to him and does n't tell about what 's under the gazebo , he will make sure that martin is happily reunited with his family . sam takes katherine to jail . gwen begs theresa to save one of the babies . theresa talks to her famly about it . gwen freaks out while talking to ethan about the babies and suddenly collapses . luis and theresa agree that they hate martin and would n't welcome him back since he has deserted them for all those years , which upsets pilar . katherine meets another prisoner who killed her husband to protect her daughter . the woman urges her not to lose her daughter no matter what . sheridan visits katherine in jail and demands to know why she feels this connection to her . katherine at first denies it but then seems ready to tell the truth .</s> | 15,780 |
