[ scene_break ] victor : i appreciate your concern , brady , but as i told you before , it 's unwarranted . brady : you ca n't lock nicole up , granddad . there 's a law against that sort of thing . victor : my wife has led a very harem - scarem existence . she needs boundaries and lots of structure in order to feel secure . brady : uh , with all due respect , granddad , hanging out with nicole has made me realize something . she is a wild bird , a free spirit , so to speak . she needs outdoors , wide - open spaces -- victor : that 's why my little sparrow of a wife needs to have her wings clipped .

[ scene_break ] brady : granddad , let me ask you something . when nicole was your number two at titan , you trusted her . she came through for you time and time again . victor : your point ? brady : why did it all change ? why do you want to clip her wings ? you two were so in love , and then after the wedding , it was never the same . why is that ? [ scene_break ] ( victor 's flashback ) nicole : give me that ! victor : ha ha ha . did you really think that was the only copy , nicole ? i have got tons of dirt on you . i mean , i got the original of all these documents , plus i have the videotape of you and colin making love . it 's all down in the safe . [ scene_break ] victor : our priorities changed , that 's all . maybe that 's difficult for someone of your generation to understand . brady : no , it 's not that i do n't understand it , i do n't buy it . you two are miserable with each other . victor : if my blushing bride were all that miserable , why does n't she just leave ? [ scene_break ] nicole : okay . plan number two . nicole has left the building .

[ scene_break ] brady : oh , henderson . you have n't seen nicole around , have you ? henderson : no , sir . brady : well , i thought she was in her room , but when i knocked , there was no answer . henderson : if i run into her , is there anything you would like me to convey ? brady : no , not really . i 'm just worried about her , that 's all . henderson : you seem very concerned about mrs. kiriakis ' welfare these days .

[ scene_break ] marlena : i think it 's perfect for sami . she 's always enjoyed fashion , and this could be a real career for her . roman : doc , look , i love our daughter very much , but hurricanes could be named after her . she causes major chaos wherever she goes .

[ scene_break ] roman : all right , doc . let 's say sami does go to work for john , and true to form , she makes one bad decision after another . do you really want that kind of stress between your husband and you ? marlena : she would n't be working that closely with john . and he 's only there part - time , anyway . roman : yeah , but kate is there full - time , and given her relationship with sami , that could blow up real fast . look , i -- i 'm just saying i think it 's a bad idea to force our daughter on john and kate . marlena : maybe you 're right . roman : i believe i am . marlena : maybe sami will have to work this out all by herself . [ scene_break ] john : i do n't know , kate . i appreciate the offer , but ... kate : hey , you 're not going to have to work with them . i 'll teach them the ropes . i 'll make sure they fit in . john : that could prove to be pretty difficult . kate : oh , believe me , i can whip anyone into shape . john : that 's a fact . kate : why do n't you just let me do this for you and marlena ? john : god knows it would make her happy . and it would get me out of hot water . kate : then i insist .

[ scene_break ] john : marlena , you know , i agree with you that our number one priority is to keep sami away from tony . but , you know , the last time i checked , basic black specialized in fashion and publishing , not babysitting . marlena : i 'm not talking about babysitting sami . i 'm talking about giving her a second chance , a fresh start . an entry - level position would be just fine . and maybe you 'll get lucky . maybe she 'll prove herself to be a valuable employee . what do you say , boss man ? will you give her a shot ? give her a job , please .

[ scene_break ] sami : kate will most certainly be a problem . not only is she a bitch and a half , she 's also with my dad . tony : she also happens to be one of your mother 's best friends . sami : which is probably why my mom suggested that i get a job at basic black . she really thinks she can keep me under her thumb that way . tony : you know , i do n't want to cause any problems between you and marlena . unless , of course ... sami : what ? tony : no , no , no . never mind . sami : say it . tony : ha ha ha ha . sit . unless , of course , if we 're looking at the bigger picture -- for you , i mean -- i always thought if you used your brain rather than running with your impulses , you have the ability to become a force to be reckoned with . sami : well , i like the sound of that . tony : and now you have a chance . sami : of course if john has his way , i wo n't get the job . he 's probably paranoid that i 'll use it to destroy his relationship with my mother . tony : that 's understandable . i mean , just now you said to me your dream is to have your parents reunite . sami : well , of course . call me childish or just sentimental , but i think if my parents got back together , everything would feel right again . if i can pull some strings and convince my parents to remarry , everything else would just fall into place . tony : hmm . do you have a plan ? sami : well , even if i do manage to break up my mom and john , i 'm going to have to figure out how to break up kate and my dad , too . but i have never understood what he sees in that slut . i mean , she is the -- tony : what ? what ? sami : i am going to be a fabulous new member of the basically boring black family . i just need to get that job . tony : and that job you 'll have . sami : if you 'll get it for me . tony , will you talk to john about hiring me , please ? tony : ha ha . most definitely .

[ scene_break ] victor : i appreciate your concern , brady , but as i told you before , it 's unwarranted . brady : you ca n't lock nicole up , granddad . there 's a law against that sort of thing . victor : my wife has led a very harem - scarem existence . she needs boundaries and lots of structure in order to feel secure . brady : uh , with all due respect , granddad , hanging out with nicole has made me realize something . she is a wild bird , a free spirit , so to speak . she needs outdoors , wide - open spaces -- victor : that 's why my little sparrow of a wife needs to have her wings clipped .

[ scene_break ] brady : granddad , let me ask you something . when nicole was your number two at titan , you trusted her . she came through for you time and time again . victor : your point ? brady : why did it all change ? why do you want to clip her wings ? you two were so in love , and then after the wedding , it was never the same . why is that ?

[ scene_break ] victor : our priorities changed , that 's all . maybe that 's difficult for someone of your generation to understand . brady : no , it 's not that i do n't understand it , i do n't buy it . you two are miserable with each other . victor : if my blushing bride were all that miserable , why does n't she just leave ?

[ scene_break ] marlena : uh , i asked john if he would give sami a job at basic black , and he 's refused . roman : ca n't say i blame him . mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm john : that 's a nice save . kate : mm . so , you want to tell me about it ? john : nah . kate : look , i 'll be glad to help if i can . john : well , there is this ... person marlena wants me to hire on at basic black , and ... i think it 's a terrible idea . [ scene_break ] marlena : i think it 's perfect for sami . she 's always enjoyed fashion , and this could be a real career for her . roman : doc , look , i love our daughter very much , but hurricanes could be named after her . she causes major chaos wherever she goes . [ scene_break ] kate : so this person that marlena wants you to hire -- john : oh , by the way , i said no , so ... kate : well , i 'm very familiar with a lot of people in the fashion and the publishing worlds . is it someone that i know ?

beth : oh . cemeteries are such creepy places , do n't you think ? sheridan : not really . i mean , i guess maybe because my mother died when i was so young . i used to go visit her when i was a little girl at the crane family mausoleum . i 'd have these long conversations with her about whatever was bothering me . just being close to her was always so comforting . beth : oh . how touching . do you still have these mother - daughter chats with her ? sheridan : no , not for ages . i miss them , though -- beth : yeah . sheridan : especially now . beth : i can imagine . you know , we 're so close to the mausoleum right now . you could go pay a visit . maybe a little respite from the sadness of the funeral would help . sheridan : you know , that 's a good idea . thanks , beth . beth : sure . would you excuse me ? i think my mother needs something . sheridan : yeah . beth : you watch the baby . i'gogoing to be busy for a little while . mrs. wallace : wait , wait ! you 're not planning to kill sheridan today , are you ?

i think that your eyes were just playing a trick on you . tabitha : hmm . very funny , endora , but you must n't do things like that in front of company . you could get us into heaps of trouble . kay : now what do i do ?

christmas is the best time of the year . i think everybody just needs a little help getting into the christmas spirit . miguel : what 'd you do , charity ? charity : well , i went to the christmas tree lot , and i picked out a tree and some decorations , and i think that the tree deliverers are right here , so let 's go let them in . come on , tabitha . miguel : is she something or what ? charity : hi ! man : hello . charity : ok , through here and then we 're going to take them into the living room , so -- tabitha : ooh ! ooh ! ooh ! charity : thank you ! man : you 're welcome . charity : what 's the matter ? tabitha : nothing , nothing , nothing ! tabitha : oh . clarice : time 's up . we have to go now . theresa : ok , where are you going to go ? where are you going to take him ? clarice : for the time being , a foster home . theresa : you know , strange people that he does n't even know . he 's going to be frightened . i mean , who are they ? where do they live ? clarice : that , my dear , is something we can not tell you . the whole int here is to protect the little fellow from your questionable influence . we 'll be in touch when we 've reached a further determination about your son 's future living circumstances . theresa : and when is that going to be ? when am i going to see him again ? clarice : well , that 'll be up to the judge who hears the case . theresa : i feel like i 'm in the middle of this horrifying nightmare and it just ca n't be happening . clarice : it 's happening , all right . theresa : but why ? you know i 'm a good mother . everybody who knows me knows that i am , and -- whoever did this , it must be somebody who hates me . i just ca n't imagine anyone despising me that much . rebecca : any moment now , we should be hearing from child protective services that our mission is accomplished . julian : and if not , we 'll no doubt hear theresa 's screams for her child all the way from her mother 's house . rebecca : one can only hope . i would just love to hear that little harlot wail . s.s. wallace : i do n't understand , precious . i don't . how did i give birth to such a vicious , cold - hearted daughter ? a caring , compassionate person such as myself , huh ? antonio : sheridan , i do n't want you going anywhere by yourself . sheridan : antonio , please . i just want to go visit my mother 's resting place for a few minutes . luis : i 'll come with you . antonio : no . if anybody 's going to go with her , it 's going to be me . sheridan : look , both of you , please ? i just want to go do this alone . eve : why do n't you just respect sheridan 's wishes ? i think it 'll be good for her to get away from gwen 's baby 's gravesite for a minute . luis : if you say so . antonio : all right . luis : sheridan , just do n't be gone for long , ok ? antonio : i 'll be right here waiting for you when you get back . sheridan : thank you . i 'll be back in time for the service . beth : ok . i know the ones i put down by the cliff work , but i better check this one out , too .

beth : oh . cemeteries are such creepy places , do n't you think ? sheridan : not really . i mean , i guess maybe because my mother died when i was so young . i used to go visit her when i was a little girl at the crane family mausoleum . i 'd have these long conversations with her about whatever was bothering me . just being close to her was always so comforting . beth : oh . how touching . do you still have these mother - daughter chats with her ? sheridan : no , not for ages . i miss them , though -- beth : yeah . sheridan : especially now . beth : i can imagine . you know , we 're so close to the mausoleum right now . you could go pay a visit . maybe a little respite from the sadness of the funeral would help . sheridan : you know , that 's a good idea . thanks , beth . beth : sure . would you excuse me ? i think my mother needs something . sheridan : yeah . beth : you watch the baby . i'gogoing to be busy for a little while . mrs. wallace : wait , wait ! you 're not planning to kill sheridan today , are you ? beth : let 's just put it this way -- everyone in harmony is already dressed for a funeral . this way they do n't have to change clothes . miguel : you 're still not convinced , are you ? charity : i know it does n't make any sense , and if nobody else saw endora 's bottle floating through the air , then obviously i 'm mistaken . miguel : you know , i think tabitha hit the nail right on the head , you know ? i think that your eyes were just playing a trick on you . tabitha : hmm . very funny , endora , but you must n't do things like that in front of company . you could get us into heaps of trouble . kay : now what do i do ? how do i get rid of charity before i have to leave ? tabitha : that , my dear , is up to you . charity : i almost forgot . i have a sprprise for the two of you . kay : oh , goody . tabitha : and what would that be , dearie ? charity : well , i know that the two of you have n't had that much time with your new babies to decorate for the holiday season , so -- tabitha : oh , charity , i 'm not really that big on christmas . charity : what are you talking about ? christmas is the best time of the year . i think everybody just needs a little help getting into the christmas spirit . miguel : what 'd you do , charity ? charity : well , i went to the christmas tree lot , and i picked out a tree and some decorations , and i think that the tree deliverers are right here , so let 's go let them in . come on , tabitha . miguel : is she something or what ? charity : hi ! man : hello . charity : ok , through here and then we 're going to take them into the living room , so -- tabitha : ooh ! ooh ! ooh ! charity : thank you ! man : you 're welcome . charity : what 's the matter ? tabitha : nothing , nothing , nothing ! tabitha : oh . clarice : time 's up . we have to go now . theresa : ok , where are you going to go ? where are you going to take him ? clarice : for the time being , a foster home . theresa : you know , strange people that he does n't even know . he 's going to be frightened . i mean , who are they ? where do they live ? clarice : that , my dear , is something we can not tell you . the whole int here is to protect the little fellow from your questionable influence . we 'll be in touch when we 've reached a further determination about your son 's future living circumstances . theresa : and when is that going to be ? when am i going to see him again ? clarice : well , that 'll be up to the judge who hears the case . theresa : i feel like i 'm in the middle of this horrifying nightmare and it just ca n't be happening . clarice : it 's happening , all right . theresa : but why ? you know i 'm a good mother . everybody who knows me knows that i am , and -- whoever did this , it must be somebody who hates me . i just ca n't imagine anyone despising me that much . rebecca : any moment now , we should be hearing from child protective services that our mission is accomplished . julian : and if not , we 'll no doubt hear theresa 's screams for her child all the way from her mother 's house . rebecca : one can only hope . i would just love to hear that little harlot wail . s.s. wallace : i do n't understand , precious . i don't . how did i give birth to such a vicious , cold - hearted daughter ? a caring , compassionate person such as myself , huh ? antonio : sheridan , i do n't want you going anywhere by yourself . sheridan : antonio , please . i just want to go visit my mother 's resting place for a few minutes . luis : i 'll come with you . antonio : no . if anybody 's going to go with her , it 's going to be me . sheridan : look , both of you , please ? i just want to go do this alone . eve : why do n't you just respect sheridan 's wishes ? i think it 'll be good for her to get away from gwen 's baby 's gravesite for a minute . luis : if you say so . antonio : all right . luis : sheridan , just do n't be gone for long , ok ? antonio : i 'll be right here waiting for you when you get back . sheridan : thank you . i 'll be back in time for the service . beth : ok . i know the ones i put down by the cliff work , but i better check this one out , too .

[ cell phone beeps ] hope : is that your office ? liam : uh , it is ... an e - mail from steffy , which i will read later . hope : no , no , no . read it . i mean , if it 's a bomb she 's dropping , it 's better that it drops on both of us at once . liam : touché . hope : so , what 'd she say ? is she coming home ? liam : she 's sending back the annulment papers . hope : well , that 's not too much of a shock . liam : signed and witnessed . listen to this . `` you 're right . this is n't like last time . i wanted to leave you free to marry hope , and now you are . the papers should arrive by air courier the day after tomorrow . `` hope : [ laughs ] you do n't -- you do n't have to read out loud any of the words that are just for you , okay ? liam : poof . hope : yeah . liam : yeah . hope : i know . liam : where 'd my marriage go ? it was here a minute ago . hope : liam , if you want some time alone , it 's okay . liam : no , no . she did mean what she said , though . she just , uh ... needed some reminding . hope : well , i have n't been very patient . liam : what are you talking about ? you waited for this for how long ? hope : i know , but i also know that it hurts you , too . liam : yeah . i 'm also a little better than i used to be at feeling two things at once , you know ? still want to marry me ? hope : oh , god , of course i do . i 've disappointed you before . i 've wanted too much . liam : no , you -- no , you wanted this to happen when we were both free , and now we are . and i think -- i think that a big part of my happiness is knowing you 're happy . are you -- are you happy ? hope : yes . yes ! i am . liam : i think we 're gon na have it all this time . i love you . hope : i love you , too . brooke : you just missed bill . i 'm not sure exactly where he was headed . quinn : oh , it 's just fine with me that i do n't run into him . brooke : oh , well , hope 's not here , either . and i think it 's fair to tell you that canceling your contract was not her idea . quinn : oh , that situation has been resolved , and we are still happily on board . brooke : oh . that 's good to hear . quinn : i see you so seldom at forrester . i feel like we have n't had the chance to become acquainted . this is really just a social call . brooke : well , that 's very thoughtful of you . thank you , quinn . um , yeah , i 've just been really busy , you know , working from home . my desk , upstairs . quinn : creative people need privacy . brooke : [ chuckles ] yeah . privacy . come in , come in . sit down . actually , the truth is ... there 's so many different opinions out there about bill and me , and it just ... i would rather not hear them . quinn : love can be remarkably inconvenient . [ both laugh ] brooke : i ca n't argue that . quinn : i wonder if you 're aware of the unexpected entanglement between my son and your daughter ? brooke : i think i would call it a flirtation . quinn : ah . wow . that 's not how it appears to me . brooke : well , it certainly ca n't be anything serious because hope is engaged . quinn : yeah . uh , i understand it 's been a tortured path between her and liam . brooke : mm - hmm . but they 're past that . almost . you do n't really seem convinced . quinn : oh , i 've probably already said too much . brooke : no . no , if this is about my daughter , i 'd like to hear what you have to say . quinn : [ sighs ] well ... i 'm a realist , brooke . sometimes people who get engaged , just like people who get married , do n't always stay that way . brooke : sorry . i did n't mean to be so inhospitable . would you like something to drink or eat or -- quinn : oh , no , no , that 's okay . i have a feeling that i might have already overstay my welcome . brooke : no . it 's just ... quinn : you think i should mind my own business . brooke : well , it is our business , our children ... quinn : yeah , but you think i 'm mistaken . brooke : i do . and if you 're not , i need to know . quinn : wyatt 's never talked about marriage before today . and my son is happier than he 's ever been , and i think it 's because of her . brooke : uh , i think wyatt misunderstands this . i mean , hope is fond of him , yes , but -- quinn : i just ... i want you to understand that his attention to her is not for career advancement . you know what ? my son is sincere , and he is a really good man . he 's committed and he 's responsible -- responsible well beyond his years . and i want him to be happy . do i think that he 's gon na find that with hope ? well , you know , i 'm not so sure . but ... until someone pronounces her somebody else 's wife ... i would n't count him out . liam : do n't say it . bill : i 'm not saying ! i 'm thinking . can i think ? liam : no ! do n't -- do n't think it . do n't scheme to intercept the air courier . do n't contemplate bribing the judge into rejecting the petition . just do n't . bill : well , you know , there 's got to be a couple of legal questions there , right ? two annulments for the same couple ? come on . liam : dad , that first one was n't even filed . look , you 're gon na have to get used to this . hope and i are getting married . do n't make me black ball you from the guest list . bill : can you give me a moment ? can i have one moment to make a mental adjustment ? when i walked in here , you were still married to steffy . liam : i -- i know . i loved her . i tried . she left . sound familiar ? and , by the way , dad , have you noticed how supportive i 've been of you and brooke ? bill : all right . yeah , you have n't been a total pain in the ass . i 'll give you that . liam : okay . and that 's what i 'm saying . did all of a sudden i start hating katie and being on brooke 's side ? no , it does n't matter because the only side i should be on is yours . i want you to have the things that you think will make you happy . and what if i do n't ? what if marrying hope makes you more miserable than when you lost her ? liam : okay , first of all , that 's not gon na happen . but let 's say it did . what would i want ? i 'd want you to be on my side until i fix it up . i mean , that 's what this is about . be on my side , and i 'll be on yours . bill : gee . is n't it too bad i did n't have you around to tell me how to act when i was your age . and i 'm only being half sarcastic . liam : you know , my -- my life took a turn i never expected . steffy was such an adventure , and i would not trade going down that road for the world . but my heart feels like it 's back where it started . it 's like being home . hope : hi . wyatt : hi . hope : what 's that ? wyatt : changes for you to approve . hope : oh , okay . thank you . wyatt : i got another one for you . do n't do it . do n't marry him . hope : wyatt ... you know , things really are n't the same as they were yesterday . wyatt : i heard . hope : uh , you heard what ? wyatt : i came to the door when liam was here , and i heard about the annulment . hope : okay . so ... so you know that we do n't have to wait any longer . wyatt : you do n't have to rush , either . hope : wyatt , you knew that this was coming . wyatt : just answer me one thing . are you sure ? hope : it is what i 've wanted for so long . wyatt : that 's not what i asked . what does time have to do with it ? it 's ... it 's never been right between you and him . it 's always been right between you and me . you feel it . i know you do . hope : we hardly know each other . wyatt : so give me some time . let me show you . do n't ... do n't marry my brother .Summarize.[/INST]bill is pissed that katie is playing bait and switch with his pi 's . he 's cross with brooke . this is the first she knows about him hiring a detective . he grouses that she took his child out of state and has not contacted him so she 's lucky he does n't have her arrested . brooke tries to calm him down and says nobody is going to be arrested . bill has to know she is not going to hurt that little boy . liam drops in on hope who had sent a note that she 'd like to have lunch with him . she says she should have told him last night . somehow wyatt had found out that she asked eric to pull the plug on the contract and even though eric said no wyatt was willing to rip it up and walk away . liam scoffs that is too easy , must be a catch . hope says she must be the catch then as she does not want him to walk away and she told him so . liam does n't quite understand why when she knows it would mean so much to him . she says she only considered it as a way to prove herself to liam and she really does n't feel like she should have to do that . quinn and wyatt are having lunch outside and she is holding up her jewelry to catch the light in the sun . he reveals that he told hope that she could tear up the contract since quinn said he could make business decisions now . but hope did not want to . then he begins to tell her just how long hope has been waiting for liam . he 's not right for her . all wyatt had to do was go to her . she will never get from liam what she gets from him . she would never have to wait for wyatt to make up his mind . she 's the one ; always has been . now he thinks she knows too . quinn wants to take some jewelry to hope to let her approve of the changes . wyatt asks that she let him do that . she asks if he know if brooke is in the office yet . she wonders if she knows that her daughter 's fiance is behaving badly . wyatt says there is no reason to bring that up as it already fixed . liam is really not a bad guy . he just does n't know what he wants . most people who have everything they want are like that . they do n't have to decide . suddenly she remembers that wyatt once promised that he was going to make a piece for hope 's wedding . he says yes , even told her that he was going to be the groom . he 's not sure how to make that happen , but it will . quinn says she 's not sure whether to be worried about him or to be happy for him .</s> | 510 |

sharon : phyllis accused me of sending it . nikki : phyllis , what is wrong with you ? phyllis : i did n't think it was about what it was about . victoria : oh . a drawback of crossing too many lines -- too much to feel guilty about . phyllis : this is definitely the time to make it all about me . victoria : well , you 've made a habit of that all by yourself . phyllis : we were on a break . sharon : oh , if i hear that meaningless phrase one more time ... nikki : please stop it . we have more important issues to handle right now . now , there 's only one thing that connects the four of us -- only one reason why we each got the same letter . obviously , someone is on to us . victoria : do you think rey had anything to do with us ? sharon : why do you ask me ? phyllis : because you work with the guy . maybe you let something slip when you decided to move your new pal upstairs in the apartment ? sharon : my pal ? you 're the one who asked me to find out what i could from him . also , you 're the one who was waving that letter around when the man walked right into the squad room and i had to cover for you , so you can watch it with your accusations . nikki : are you kidding me ? you took that letter into the police station ? phyllis : really , what 's the point ? victoria : nothing you have said scratches rey off the list . i mean , maybe he 's trying to rattle us . maybe he 's trying to wait and see if one or all of us panic . tessa : all right . aha . here you go . nikki : thanks . thank you . tessa : all right . well , can i get you all anything else -- scones ? the blueberry bars are pretty great . victoria : no , this is all we need . thank you . sharon : thanks . tessa : okay . phyllis : so , a likely suspect is a trained detective who wants to put all of us in jail . no big deal . victoria : if not rey , who else wants us on edge like this ?

you playing nicely at work ? kyle : i 've been a good soldier -- attentive and productive . ashley 's pleased by my efforts . jack : glad to hear it . kyle : and while ted was on his lunch break , i accessed some accounts on his computer . jack : okay , i 'm gon na stop you right there . that is precisely the opposite of what i asked you to do this morning . kyle : and i did some digging with the bank and accounting departments . jack : this only gets worse . kyle : i pretended the new c.e.o . was writing me to reconcile accounts , so i found out where the mysterious monthly payments are going to -- type a consulting , for the services of andrew -- wait for it -- lynford . so then i tracked down the address . it 's just a p.o . box , not an office or a lab or even a studio apartment . it 's a shell company . and my crimes are suddenly besides the point . jack : i will allow that it does bring up some questions . kyle : the checks have been going out regularly for six months . then they stopped , just like that , which would explain why andrew nudged me to keep his deal in place with ashley . andrew has gone rogue , and ashley has no idea . jack : those payments could still be for consulting work . kyle : in what capacity ? why would ashl abbott contract an unknown company with no actual physical place of business for no known actual service ? this is n't work - related , dad -- at all . now we take the evidence to ashley and see what kind of b.s . excuse she comes up with . jack : you are not doing that . in your position , you start making accusations like that , she just fires you , and there 's nothing you or anyone else can do about it . kyle : ashley is hiding something , dad . jack : that may be . but let me handle this may way . lily : she 's a single mother with no support , so she was convicted of check fraud because she was just trying to feed her kids . and because she has no family , her kids end up in the system and not even together . they 're in separate foster homes . her family is being ripped into a million pieces . cane : i know you care about her -- i do -- and i 'm worried that these people have seen you in magazines and if you get too involved , they may just want to take advantage of you . lily : i 'm not in a magazine now . cane : all right . okay . so , how 'bout we do this ? when you get home -- lily : yeah , to our beautiful house in a safe neighborhood , with our children . i mean , a lot of these women here will never get that . cane : okay . i can have mattie research some charities . lily : and then what -- you 're gon na write a check ? cane : yeah . i 'll have chancellor write a really big check . lily : cane , that 's -- that 's great . you know , money is great . but what happens is we write these zeros and we forget these are real people with real problems , and they need help . i want to do something substantial for mikayla . cane : i know that you care . i do . lily : it 's not enough . i can do more . you know , being in here has been a shock , but it 's given me new perspective , and i realize that even in here , because i have you , because i have money , make a real difference with these women who have n't been as lucky as i have . and that 's what i have to do .

[ door opens ] jack : hey ! i came to officially meet your new assistant . i heard only great things , but he 's not there . ashley : oh , you wanted to chat with ted , huh ? you sure you 're not checking to see if the building 's still standing ? jack : i come in peace . i come in support . look , you 're a strong , capable leader , ashley , and i 'd hate to think where we would be today if billy were still in that chair . i know you will manage jabot with care and integrity and , uh , no poker games . ashley : [ laughs ] you can pretty much count on that . jack : i am kind of curious about one thing . um , type a consulting -- we 've been sending checks to them regularly . ashley : yeah . outside r & d company . jack : oh . so , what are they working on ? ashley : this and that . hey , should n't you be more concerned with things going on at dark horse ? jack : you know , i 'm just overly conscious of loose ends under billy 's mismanagement . i 'm sure you want to avoid even the appearance of impropriety . ashley : of course . that 's always been my primary focus , jack . this is n't your problem . i 've got everything covered . kyle : type a is a shell company . it does n't do r & d or anything else for jabot . ashley : excuse me . it is against company policy for an employee , even if they are a board member , to try to gain access to confidential files that are beyond their position . you are in breach of your contract . kyle : that 's interesting , 'cause you were more than willing to bend the rules for access to billy 's files . jack : okay , let 's slow things down for a second . ashley : i 'm not gon na take action because the family 's been through too much , but do n't you ever do anything like this again . kyle : who is andrew lynford , ashley , and why are you paying him off with company funds ? `` the young and the restless `` will continue . ashley : my arrangement with type a was cleaning up one of billy 's messy decisions . kyle : that 's strange , 'cause andrew never once mentioned billy 's name . ashley : hmm . when did you talk to him ? kyle : when he came to me , complaining that you and he had a deal and then you shut down the project . he 's pissed , and he wanted me to pass along the message that he had some damaging information -- something that could destroy both you and jabot . he felt it was in your best interest to keep the arrangement in place . ashley : obviously , nobody likes to lose a paycheck . nothing else to explain , except maybe why the hell are you listening to the rantings of a stranger ? jack : billy mentioned type a a couple of weeks ago -- brought it up out of nowhere . i guess he thought it was my deal or something . but ... if you could shed any light on it , i 'm sure that would be a help . we do n't want rumor and speculation , particularly in your first week in charge . so , who is this andrew guy , and why are you paying him through a shell company ? ashley : guys , come on ! this is a non - issue . jack : are you being blackmailed ? does this guy have something on you ? because we are family , first and foremost , and we want to help . cane : i understand what you 're saying , all right ? it 's just that , you know , not everyone is like you , and i 'm just worried that they may have ulterior motives . you know what i mean ? i mean , how well do you know this woman ? lily : well , i 'm not talking about have her move into mattie 's room . i 'm just saying help her figure out the system , to find out what her rights are , how to keep her kids together . i mean , why is this so hard for you ? cane : because we already have enough going on with our own family -- that 's why . lily : [ scoffs ] right . because of me . cane : i 'm not saying that to you , okay ? hey , i 'm -- i 'm sorry . i did n't want to make it sound like that . it 's just ... i just miss you , all right ? i miss you . that 's all this is . [ exhales sharply ] well , they 're going to , um ... throw me out of here soon , so , um ... i just want to give you that . lily : thank you . cane : well , i 'll see you . hey . hey , hey , hey . hey . i do n't want to leave you like this . nikki : why on earth would victor send out four letters just to torment us ? victoria : dad does bizarre things for all sorts of reasons , mostly to gain control . phyllis : well , do n't think he would n't love to have something like this on all of us . did you tell him ? did you trust your beloved husband with our secret ? nikki : no . i did not . i do n't enjoy keeping secrets from my husband , but i did not tell him ! phyllis : maybe you thought he was gon na cheer you on for trying to get rid of the guy who tried to kill him . nikki : okay . as i was saying , i have not told victor , and i wo n't , because we all made an agreement , and i do n't want this thing to torture victoria any longer . phyllis : okay . well , victor i could see . he would want to protect you and victoria . but the notes are smokescreens -- okay ? -- until he hangs sharon and me out to dry . nikki : phyllis , i am not the weak link . phyllis : well , do n't look at me . victoria : you 're the one who 's been spending months partying and gambling with billy . do you remember everything that you said to him in your drunken nights of revelry ? phyllis : are you suggesting he wrote those letters and sent them from rehab ? sharon : people find all kinds of ways of getting around the rules . phyllis : really ? that 's what we 're doing right now ? sharon : i 'm just saying victoria does n't trust you or your judgment , and why should she ? phyllis : if it 's not billy or victor , then it is someone with a grudge . victoria : whoever it is , the fact that they targeted all of us means that they suspect something . how and why ? sharon : rey said the same thing that dylan used to say -- criminals always make mistakes . and the smallest clue can give the whole thing away . victoria : and he 's worked all of us . phyllis : yeah , doing little favors , worming his way into conversations so he can pick up on clues . we told you to get information , not to give it . sharon : i haven't . nikki : you 've gotten too close , sharon . and given the recent events , you 're probably going to get closer . sharon : oh . even when it 's your son who cheats , i get the insults . nikki : it 's just an observation . sharon : okay . i am not the one to blame for any of this . victoria : stop it ! ashley : i 'm not doing this . i do n't answer to either one of you . kyle , you are my subordinate . jack , come on ! you do n't even work here anymore ! kyle : we can have this conversation with the board . ashley : oh . well , that 's a great idea . just drag the board in after i 've just been newly installed as c.e.o . , which you voted against , by the way , so that makes you look petty , vindictive , and disloyal . and then you 're gon na be embarrassed because andrew is my employee who i have hired to work on highly confidential projects to ensure the future of our company . kyle : according to him , he does n't work for you anymore . you cut him loose . so , exactly how crucial can his work here be ? jack : if his work is that important , why would you hide it ? ashley : i 'm not ready to share it . p.s . -- that 's my prerogative . kyle : and you ca n't give a straight answer . none of this explains why the guy said he had dirt on you . ashley : i do n't owe you an explanation , kyle . when you came back into town , you turned around and stabbed your own father in the back because you were colluding with victor , who would do anything to inflict damage on our family . for all i know , you 're still working with him . kyle : that 's ridiculous . ashley : what about that missing video -- you know the one where abby was interviewing dina , that clip where she says that jack is n't john abbott 's son ? you had access to that because you were living in the house . god knows you love to ingratiate yourself to victor . what better way than to hand him that little nugget -- inflict the worst pain you could on your own father ? i 'm right , are n't i ? kyle : you do n't get to turn this around on me . ashley : you know , not that long ago , you looked me in the eye . you said you 'd do anything to prove your loyalty to me . what is this ? are you trying to play games with me ? you 're trying to lower my guard so you can ruin my reputation ? did you put him up to this ? ! jack : we are not trying to harm you ! if you 're compromised right now , if you 're trying to get out of whatever situation this is with andrew , we want to help ! ashley : i do n't need you to save me , jack ! i need you to leave so i can do my job ! and you -- i am so sick and tired of you , kyle . if you ca n't support me , then give me your resignation right now . and you , too -- why do n't you just resign from the board while you 're at it ? i will not stop you . no ? well , then i guess we 're done here . goodbye . [ sighs ] cane : i 'm sorry . i just -- i just do n't know how to do this . you know , you 're in here , and just ... i think about you in your cell . it drives me crazy . and i would change places with you if i could . i just -- i just feel helpless . that 's all . lily : i know . i miss you so much . and every night i go to sleep , i think about being in our bed together , and i try to imagine the sounds of our house -- you know , sam on the monitor and ... charlie getting water ... mattie 's music while she studies . i just -- i love you . i love all of you . cane : we love you . lily : i know . and that 's what gets me through each day . but , cane , i am not the same person anymore . i am not who i was before the accident and before this place . cane : i understand . i do . and i love you . i 'll always love you , no matter what . andrew : i had a nice little chat with your nephew kyle , but you probably know all about that . you 've been dragging your feet on this one , ashley . you needed a friendly little reminder that i am serious -- that , together , we sink or we float in this . ashley : and that was the last time you 're ever gon na threaten me . victoria : okay , look ... we need to stop with all this sniping and the backbiting . there 's too much at stake . now we have to take a look at what we 're dealing with here . there 's a threat , and it 's real . whoever sent these letters wants that . that 's why they all arrived at different times -- so that we 'd be careless and we would be paranoid . so , we have to proceed with caution . that 's what we have to do . we do n't know who sent these letters or how they know what they know , so we have to keep our guards up and be ready for the next move , because one thing is for sure -- something is coming . esther : cane ! oh , my god ! it 's been so long since i 've seen you ! cane : hey , esther . esther : ohh . ohh ! cane : you good ? esther : yeah . so , how are things ? cane : uh , okay . esther : oh , i 'm sorry . loaded question . cane : yeah . yeah . i just , uh -- you know , i kind of do n't know where to start or , you know , if you have the time . esther : oh , yeah . you know , i 'm just here meeting some friends for a late lunch . cane : well , i do n't want to keep you from that , so it 's okay . esther : oh , no , no , no . absolutely . i came here early for the sole purpose of grabbing a drink before . [ gasps ] oh , a white - wine spritzer , one ice cube , please . cane : sounds like you 've had a rough day . esther : absolutely not . i 've heard you say that chancellor industries practically runs by itself . cane : well , we do n't want to jill that , okay ? esther : yeah . well , same can be said for the mansion . thank you . cane : your secret is safe with me -- shh . esther : oh , yeah . so ... back to my original question . now , you do n't have to go into detail , but i can guarantee you i 'm a much listener than that glass of scotch . cane : it 's lily . it 's lily . esther : oh , honey . i know it 's got to be really difficult , but sometimes it helps to talk about things , and ... i bet you have n't even had a chance to discuss this with anyone outside of the immediate family . cane : no . you know , it is prison . i 'd be lying if i said she was doing great . she 's putting on this brave face for the kids , but today she 's dropped the facade . esther : oh , i 'm so , so sorry . cane : it 's okay . i know she 's strong . i know she 's gon na be fine . it just -- it just breaks my heart to see her go through this , you know ? esther : well , luckily , you 're as strong as she is . and if there 's any two people that can get through things , it 's you guys . you 've done it before , and you 'll do it again , and you 'll both be there to raise each other up when life throws roadblocks in front of you . cane : you know what ? you are right . you are absolutely right . you know , the kids -- this is hard oh them , and they hate it , but it 's just gon na make them stronger , is n't it ? esther : gosh . it 's been so long since i 've seen them . cane : yeah . esther : they 're probably looking at colleges now , right ? cane : you know mattie . she 's been looking at college ever since junior high . here . let me show you . esther : ah . let me see . cane : there you go . esther : oh , gosh ! they 're practically adults ! cane : oh , do n't remind me . esther : oh . is this little sam ? cane : yeah . not so little anymore , is he ? esther : oh , wow . what a cutie ! cane : i should bring them by the house . esther : i would love that ! it 's been so long since i 've seen all of them . cane : me , too . absolutely . i 'll bring them over . esther : okay . [ cellphone chimes ] oh , my gosh . my friends are here . they 're parking . cane : well , you go and have some fun . esther : it was great seeing you , cane . cane : you , too . esther : listen , do n't be a stranger . you know where jill has me locked up . cane : okay . esther : bye . cane : bye . hey , esther . thank you . [ sighs ] kyle : ashley is more on edge than i have ever seen her . jack : it is all about that damn clause . i could sense it . i could hear it in her voice . i made her an outsider , and she still feels that way . kyle : you mean you 're sympathetic ? jack : i am acknowledging that i contributed to this situation . kyle : ashley is n't licking old wounds . she 's being just as shady as billy ever was , and that type a guy , andrew -- there is something there . now she 's throwing her power around to make sure we do n't go digging into it . if she goes unchecked , who knows how much harm she can cause jabot ? jack : after the display we just saw in there ... i frankly do n't know if we can stop her . ashley : you are so incredibly stupid . andrew : [ chuckles ] look , i did n't come here to be insulted . ashley : you came here because i told you to come here because you work for me . andrew : oh , no , no . i worked for you , past tense , per your unilateral decision . look , no money , no loyalty . ashley : you 've been breaking the law , and i can prove it . andrew : mm ? ashley : worst - case scenario , you go to prison . best case , you 'd never work in your field again . i can make your life really difficult , andrew . andrew : well , then it 's mutually assured destruction , all right ? i 've got no problem taking you down with me . ashley : i have n't broken the law . andrew : no , maybe not . but you 've broken the bonds of family trust . if the abbott clan finds out what you 've been up to -- [ clicks tongue ] -- no more family dinners for ashley . ashley : billy is not going to believe one word out of your mouth . they think they 're protecting me from an extortionist . do you understand ? you misjudged your leverage . i can tell them that you forced me into this . andrew : what ? you came to me . ashley : i 've also recorded every single one of our meetings , which means i control the narrative . now , look ... i do n't want this to get ugly . i 'm very happy to give you one last very generous payment . and then we can pretend that it never happened . we can go our separate ways . so , what are you gon na do ? you gon na take your chances , or do we part as friendly colleagues that wish each other well ? | kyle tells jack he thinks ashley is being blackmailed by andrew because he was able to get into ashley 's asstant , ted 's computer and he discovered that ashley hs been sending monthly payments to a shell corperation called type a consulting registered to the guy named andrew who told him to tell ashley to make sure and honor their deal . jack thinks there is something suspicous and decides to talk to ashley about it . jack and kyle confront ashley but she maintains she hired andrew for a top seccret project and accuses kyle of being disloyal and in breech of his contract . jack tells ashley that he just wnat to help and if andrew is blackmailing her they can help her get out of trouble . andrew sneaks into ashley 's car and demands money or he will tell everyone her secret . ashley tells andrew nobody would believe him amd it would end his career . andrew says he does n't care and he is ready to bring her down with him . ashley offers to give andrew one last big payment or she could end his career it is his choice . cane goes to visit lily without the kid and she tells him the truth about how horrible life is for her in prison and how much she wants to help other inmates who are n't as blessed as she is but cane does n't wamt to hear the truth at the end of their visit he finally understands and tells lily that he loves her . the lsdies night group has a meeting about the notes they all got and they decide that either rey is trying to rattle them or someone else knows their secret . | <s>[INST] [ previously_on ] lily : i just miss you guys so much . and it 's nice seeing you , but it 's not the same . nikki : i have told no one about j.t . victoria : well , i have n't told anyone , either . sharon : what are you thinking , bringing this in here ? are you out of your mind ? phyllis : it 's called `` going to the source . `` sharon : it 's called `` idiotic `` if you think i sent this . billy : type a consulting -- you heard of 'em ? ashley : you slashed my r & d budget , remember ? so i was forced to farm out research to an outside firm . andrew : i 've recently discovered some secret information that could be damaging to both her and jabot . jack : kyle . give me a second . kyle : anything to put off the inevitable humiliation of another day at jabot . jack : do me a favor and dial down the frustration a little bit . no , i was n't made c.e.o . , and , yes , ashley refused to consider you for c.o.o . but i 'm asking you to refrain from making it tough for her . jabot needs continuity right now , consistency . kyle : and that means ashley ? no ! not a chance . there is something going on with her and that guy andrew . i ca n't just ignore what he told me . jack : it sounds like a venting of a disgruntled employee . kyle : or a righteous whistle - blower . dad , ashley is a schemer . she has this slick hypercontrol facade , but she 's more than capable of playing dirty or paying other people to play dirty for her . jack : did this guy actually say to you something ? ashley : what are the two of you speaking about so intently ? tessa : did you watch `` gc buzz `` yesterday ? mariah is really finding her voice . she makes the audience feel supersmart and that they 're in on the joke . i mean , that 's -- that 's a gift . sharon : you 're very kind , tessa . tessa : no , no . i mean it . she 's -- she 's really good . sharon : that 's not what i meant . you 're very sweet to try to take my mind away from that disaster of a wedding . tessa : you 're such a good person , sharon -- one of the most generous i 've ever met . you 've been that way with me , even though i 've given you a million reasons not to be . i just -- i wish i could find a way to help you now . sharon : you already have . i 've never seen mariah happier , and you 're starting to get the hang of that espresso machine . tessa : it hates me . sharon : it 's temperamental . you 're doing beautifully with it . and i did have one favor to ask . tessa : name it . sharon : would you cover me when phyllis gets here ? tessa : is she on her way over here now ? i - i 'll take care of her . in fact , i can make sure that she never comes back here again . sharon : well , i appreciate you wanting to protect me , but i 've been dealing with phyllis for more years than i care to think about , sadly , under circumstances that were very much like these . tessa : well , just because you were there in the past does n't mean you have to be there again . sharon : phyllis and i have commitments . we just have to put up with each other for a little while longer . tessa : hey , i promised mariah i 'd take care of you , so if you need an assist ... sharon : you 'll be the first to know . patio , please . phyllis : can we not do this face to face ? i know that i am a she - devil and a soulless man - stealer , but i did not steal nick , nor do i want him , so -- sharon : stop talking . `` i know what you did , and i 'm going to make you pay . `` phyllis : oh , my god . you got one , too ? victoria : [ sighs ] after everything we 've been through with nick pretending to be j.t . , i 'm just really sick and tired of having my guard up . maybe that 's it . maybe it 's somebody who 's upset with nick . nikki : or maybe it 's someone trying to find out what we know , someone who actually has no real information at all . victoria : who are we kidding ? [ door opens ] cane : hey . hey . lily : hey . cane : missed this . lily : same here . how are the kids ? cane : uh ... they 're great . they 're great . they send their love . sam , too -- not in so many words . lily : well , give them hugs for me . cane : yeah , i will . mattie and charlie wish they could be here every day , and they would come if they could , but they know that you 'd rather , you know , they not miss school . besides , mattie 's kind of , uh -- you know , does n't want to push her luck after the whole `` free lily ashby `` incident . um , i 'm recording our favorite tv shows . i promise you i 'm not gon na binge - watch any , and , uh , i 'm looking for some restaurants and some places i can take you when you get out of here and i can pamper you . uh ... what is it ? lily : what do you mean ? cane : well , i feel like we have n't seen each other in a while , and -- i do n't know -- maybe i 'm reading too much into this , but you do n't seem too happy to see me . lily : [ sighs ] cane : i 'm sorry . i should n't have said anything . i 'm sorry . lily : it 's just the kids are n't here , so i did n't think i had to act upbeat and cheerful , like this is some sort of extreme adventure . i thought for once , i would n't have to put on a show . kyle : dad wanted to have a quick chat about dina before i head to the office . when you walked in , we were wrapping it up . jack : yeah . mother may not be aware of everything that 's going on in this house , but i do think she 's sensitive to disruption . with billy off at rehab and all the changes at jabot , i think the mood of the house is going to affect her . ashley : so , you said you were wrapping it up . did you reach any conclusions ? kyle : dad was hoping i would spend a little extra time with her , whether it be watching a movie or going for a walk around the grounds . he reminded me john abbott would want us looking out for each other at work and home . ashley : well , i could n't agree more . i 'll see you at the office , kyle . bye , jack . jack : bye . kyle : right behind you . she is smooth . jack : you have no proof that ashley has crossed any lines . kyle : proof ? no . 'cause if i did , i 'd have already called a board meeting . jack : but since you have none , tread lightly . yes , i would like to have been c.e.o . , but that is not how things played out . jabot has taken too many hits lately . help ashley succeed , for all our sakes . phyllis : okay . so , can we maybe put these away , please ? sharon : i 'd be happy to , as long as you 're willing to accept that i did not send you that note . phyllis : fine . whatever . sharon : and you realize that this is not about nicholas . phyllis : wow . sharon : what ? phyllis : if that 's what you take away from this , then i misjudged you . sharon : well , i 'm sorry if i could n't completely ignore your accusations since you said it directly to my face . phyllis : look , i 'm sorry . please , please forgive me . look , we need to focus , all right ? whoever sent these to us is obviously is enjoying it . i got mine first , then yours , but no word from nikki or victoria . maybe it just is the two of us . sharon : somebody out there wants us to be terrified , and it 's working . phyllis : no , it 's not -- not on me , at least . sharon : someone knows , phyllis . now what ? additional sponsorship cane : i know that this is not an adventure for you , and i know what you are going through . lily : no , you know in theory . you do n't know the day in and the day out . when i first got here , i was crying myself to sleep every night , and i was trying to be quiet , but i was n't quiet enough , and i - i drew attention . cane : what do you mean , you drew attention ? are you okay ? lily : [ sighs ] cane : do you need me to call someone ? lily : who are you gon na call ? what are you gon na say -- `` the inmates are being mean to my wife `` ? cane : i do n't know , but there 's got to be something i can do . lily : there 's nothing that you can do or say . this is my world now . and to deal with that and then come here and try and put on this fake smile , i - i can't . i - i am tired enough as it is . cane : i did n't ask you to come here and pretend for me . lily : [ sighs ] cane : [ inhales deeply ] sam 's wandering around . he 's , uh , pulling himself up on the furniture . and , uh , charlie and mattie -- well , you know , senior year 's going okay for them , and , uh , mattie 's , you know , gone full - on activist for you . she 's fighting for you . lily : she should stop . i mean , what is she fighting against ? i pled guilty . i turned myself in . i 'm serving my sentence . there are women in here who got more time than me and are n't responsible for someone 's death . mattie should focus her energy on other reasons , other people . there are women who did n't have the kind of money to afford a lawyer like michael baldwin . cane : listen , i do care about them -- i do -- but my focus right now is you -- getting you through this and getting you home . do you understand that ? lily : what , because it 's too hard to think about ? cane : yes , 'cause it 's too hard to think about . lily : well , we do n't have a choice . this is my life now , and i have accepted that , and you should , too . kyle : we 're ready with all the black friday point - of - purchase gift bags , and ads have been approved for all the major magazines . ashley : very interesting . kyle : the schedule ? i thought that 's how ad campaigns did it every year . ashley : yeah . no , it 's just seeing your performance as the model employee after all the ranting and raving you did when i did n't make you c.o.o . kyle : it 's pretty obvious i 'm not a fan of being on the losing side . it 's a kick to the ego . now i suck it up and do my job as well as i can . and with billy getting help , the rest of us in the family have a responsibility to focus on jabot . ashley : nice speech . i still do n't trust you entirely . kyle : understood . ashley : i guess i will give you the benefit of the doubt . so , when it comes to the boutiques , i think we should use them to promote subscription boxes . people come into the store , they try a product , and then they sign up for monthly deliveries . kyle : or we could flip it -- do sample - size subscription boxes . then they come into the boutiques for the full - size products . ashley : run those numbers . kyle : i 'm on it . ashley : kyle ... i 'm watching you . tessa : everything okay out here ? phyllis : yeah , peachy . thank you . we 're good . tessa : uh , are you sure you do n't need anything , sharon ? phyllis : privacy would be greatly appreciated . sharon : oh , i would say you could get phyllis some manners . nikki : oh , well , hello ! i 'm -- i 'm so glad that we have time to talk about our charity thing . good to see you , too , tessa . tessa : oh , uh , you , too . the usual for you both ? nikki : that would be great . victoria : i 'll just take a black coffee this time . thank you . tessa : okay . victoria : [ sighs ] we 're glad you called . nikki : yeah . we have something we need to discuss with you . sharon : we have something that we need to share . victoria : no , there 's time for that . this has already waited a few days , at least for me . phyllis : that 's fine , sharon . i really enjoy each other 's company so , so much , and we just called to say hello . nikki : good god , phyllis . will you just read this ? kyle : oh , there you are . ted was on his lunch break , so i was leaving a note with this file . i did some legwork on subscription tie - ins and brick - and- mortars . there are benefits to full - size products and to sample sizes . we need to run other figures on production costs and shipping before we know more . ashley : you really took it and ran with it , did n't you ? kyle : we lost some ground during billy 's tenure . time to make up for it . and if i can impress you in the process , even better . victoria : i thought it was an isolated incident . mom 's came after mine . sharon : mine came right after phyllis ' . nikki : hold on a second . so , you two have been discussing this and not even thought to call us ? sharon : phyllis accused me of sending it . nikki : phyllis , what is wrong with you ? phyllis : i did n't think it was about what it was about . victoria : oh . a drawback of crossing too many lines -- too much to feel guilty about . phyllis : this is definitely the time to make it all about me . victoria : well , you 've made a habit of that all by yourself . phyllis : we were on a break . sharon : oh , if i hear that meaningless phrase one more time ... nikki : please stop it . we have more important issues to handle right now . now , there 's only one thing that connects the four of us -- only one reason why we each got the same letter . obviously , someone is on to us . victoria : do you think rey had anything to do with us ? sharon : why do you ask me ? phyllis : because you work with the guy . maybe you let something slip when you decided to move your new pal upstairs in the apartment ? sharon : my pal ? you 're the one who asked me to find out what i could from him . also , you 're the one who was waving that letter around when the man walked right into the squad room and i had to cover for you , so you can watch it with your accusations . nikki : are you kidding me ? you took that letter into the police station ? phyllis : really , what 's the point ? victoria : nothing you have said scratches rey off the list . i mean , maybe he 's trying to rattle us . maybe he 's trying to wait and see if one or all of us panic . tessa : all right . aha . here you go . nikki : thanks . thank you . tessa : all right . well , can i get you all anything else -- scones ? the blueberry bars are pretty great . victoria : no , this is all we need . thank you . sharon : thanks . tessa : okay . phyllis : so , a likely suspect is a trained detective who wants to put all of us in jail . no big deal . victoria : if not rey , who else wants us on edge like this ?

you playing nicely at work ? kyle : i 've been a good soldier -- attentive and productive . ashley 's pleased by my efforts . jack : glad to hear it . kyle : and while ted was on his lunch break , i accessed some accounts on his computer . jack : okay , i 'm gon na stop you right there . that is precisely the opposite of what i asked you to do this morning . kyle : and i did some digging with the bank and accounting departments . jack : this only gets worse . kyle : i pretended the new c.e.o . was writing me to reconcile accounts , so i found out where the mysterious monthly payments are going to -- type a consulting , for the services of andrew -- wait for it -- lynford . so then i tracked down the address . it 's just a p.o . box , not an office or a lab or even a studio apartment . it 's a shell company . and my crimes are suddenly besides the point . jack : i will allow that it does bring up some questions . kyle : the checks have been going out regularly for six months . then they stopped , just like that , which would explain why andrew nudged me to keep his deal in place with ashley . andrew has gone rogue , and ashley has no idea . jack : those payments could still be for consulting work . kyle : in what capacity ? why would ashl abbott contract an unknown company with no actual physical place of business for no known actual service ? this is n't work - related , dad -- at all . now we take the evidence to ashley and see what kind of b.s . excuse she comes up with . jack : you are not doing that . in your position , you start making accusations like that , she just fires you , and there 's nothing you or anyone else can do about it . kyle : ashley is hiding something , dad . jack : that may be . but let me handle this may way . lily : she 's a single mother with no support , so she was convicted of check fraud because she was just trying to feed her kids . and because she has no family , her kids end up in the system and not even together . they 're in separate foster homes . her family is being ripped into a million pieces . cane : i know you care about her -- i do -- and i 'm worried that these people have seen you in magazines and if you get too involved , they may just want to take advantage of you . lily : i 'm not in a magazine now . cane : all right . okay . so , how 'bout we do this ? when you get home -- lily : yeah , to our beautiful house in a safe neighborhood , with our children . i mean , a lot of these women here will never get that . cane : okay . i can have mattie research some charities . lily : and then what -- you 're gon na write a check ? cane : yeah . i 'll have chancellor write a really big check . lily : cane , that 's -- that 's great . you know , money is great . but what happens is we write these zeros and we forget these are real people with real problems , and they need help . i want to do something substantial for mikayla . cane : i know that you care . i do . lily : it 's not enough . i can do more . you know , being in here has been a shock , but it 's given me new perspective , and i realize that even in here , because i have you , because i have money , make a real difference with these women who have n't been as lucky as i have . and that 's what i have to do . [ knock on door ] ashley : yes ? [ door opens ] jack : hey ! i came to officially meet your new assistant . i heard only great things , but he 's not there . ashley : oh , you wanted to chat with ted , huh ? you sure you 're not checking to see if the building 's still standing ? jack : i come in peace . i come in support . look , you 're a strong , capable leader , ashley , and i 'd hate to think where we would be today if billy were still in that chair . i know you will manage jabot with care and integrity and , uh , no poker games . ashley : [ laughs ] you can pretty much count on that . jack : i am kind of curious about one thing . um , type a consulting -- we 've been sending checks to them regularly . ashley : yeah . outside r & d company . jack : oh . so , what are they working on ? ashley : this and that . hey , should n't you be more concerned with things going on at dark horse ? jack : you know , i 'm just overly conscious of loose ends under billy 's mismanagement . i 'm sure you want to avoid even the appearance of impropriety . ashley : of course . that 's always been my primary focus , jack . this is n't your problem . i 've got everything covered . kyle : type a is a shell company . it does n't do r & d or anything else for jabot . ashley : excuse me . it is against company policy for an employee , even if they are a board member , to try to gain access to confidential files that are beyond their position . you are in breach of your contract . kyle : that 's interesting , 'cause you were more than willing to bend the rules for access to billy 's files . jack : okay , let 's slow things down for a second . ashley : i 'm not gon na take action because the family 's been through too much , but do n't you ever do anything like this again . kyle : who is andrew lynford , ashley , and why are you paying him off with company funds ? `` the young and the restless `` will continue . ashley : my arrangement with type a was cleaning up one of billy 's messy decisions . kyle : that 's strange , 'cause andrew never once mentioned billy 's name . ashley : hmm . when did you talk to him ? kyle : when he came to me , complaining that you and he had a deal and then you shut down the project . he 's pissed , and he wanted me to pass along the message that he had some damaging information -- something that could destroy both you and jabot . he felt it was in your best interest to keep the arrangement in place . ashley : obviously , nobody likes to lose a paycheck . nothing else to explain , except maybe why the hell are you listening to the rantings of a stranger ? jack : billy mentioned type a a couple of weeks ago -- brought it up out of nowhere . i guess he thought it was my deal or something . but ... if you could shed any light on it , i 'm sure that would be a help . we do n't want rumor and speculation , particularly in your first week in charge . so , who is this andrew guy , and why are you paying him through a shell company ? ashley : guys , come on ! this is a non - issue . jack : are you being blackmailed ? does this guy have something on you ? because we are family , first and foremost , and we want to help . cane : i understand what you 're saying , all right ? it 's just that , you know , not everyone is like you , and i 'm just worried that they may have ulterior motives . you know what i mean ? i mean , how well do you know this woman ? lily : well , i 'm not talking about have her move into mattie 's room . i 'm just saying help her figure out the system , to find out what her rights are , how to keep her kids together . i mean , why is this so hard for you ? cane : because we already have enough going on with our own family -- that 's why . lily : [ scoffs ] right . because of me . cane : i 'm not saying that to you , okay ? hey , i 'm -- i 'm sorry . i did n't want to make it sound like that . it 's just ... i just miss you , all right ? i miss you . that 's all this is . [ exhales sharply ] well , they 're going to , um ... throw me out of here soon , so , um ... i just want to give you that . lily : thank you . cane : well , i 'll see you . hey . hey , hey , hey . hey . i do n't want to leave you like this . nikki : why on earth would victor send out four letters just to torment us ? victoria : dad does bizarre things for all sorts of reasons , mostly to gain control . phyllis : well , do n't think he would n't love to have something like this on all of us . did you tell him ? did you trust your beloved husband with our secret ? nikki : no . i did not . i do n't enjoy keeping secrets from my husband , but i did not tell him ! phyllis : maybe you thought he was gon na cheer you on for trying to get rid of the guy who tried to kill him . nikki : okay . as i was saying , i have not told victor , and i wo n't , because we all made an agreement , and i do n't want this thing to torture victoria any longer . phyllis : okay . well , victor i could see . he would want to protect you and victoria . but the notes are smokescreens -- okay ? -- until he hangs sharon and me out to dry . nikki : phyllis , i am not the weak link . phyllis : well , do n't look at me . victoria : you 're the one who 's been spending months partying and gambling with billy . do you remember everything that you said to him in your drunken nights of revelry ? phyllis : are you suggesting he wrote those letters and sent them from rehab ? sharon : people find all kinds of ways of getting around the rules . phyllis : really ? that 's what we 're doing right now ? sharon : i 'm just saying victoria does n't trust you or your judgment , and why should she ? phyllis : if it 's not billy or victor , then it is someone with a grudge . victoria : whoever it is , the fact that they targeted all of us means that they suspect something . how and why ? sharon : rey said the same thing that dylan used to say -- criminals always make mistakes . and the smallest clue can give the whole thing away . victoria : and he 's worked all of us . phyllis : yeah , doing little favors , worming his way into conversations so he can pick up on clues . we told you to get information , not to give it . sharon : i haven't . nikki : you 've gotten too close , sharon . and given the recent events , you 're probably going to get closer . sharon : oh . even when it 's your son who cheats , i get the insults . nikki : it 's just an observation . sharon : okay . i am not the one to blame for any of this . victoria : stop it ! ashley : i 'm not doing this . i do n't answer to either one of you . kyle , you are my subordinate . jack , come on ! you do n't even work here anymore ! kyle : we can have this conversation with the board . ashley : oh . well , that 's a great idea . just drag the board in after i 've just been newly installed as c.e.o . , which you voted against , by the way , so that makes you look petty , vindictive , and disloyal . and then you 're gon na be embarrassed because andrew is my employee who i have hired to work on highly confidential projects to ensure the future of our company . kyle : according to him , he does n't work for you anymore . you cut him loose . so , exactly how crucial can his work here be ? jack : if his work is that important , why would you hide it ? ashley : i 'm not ready to share it . p.s . -- that 's my prerogative . kyle : and you ca n't give a straight answer . none of this explains why the guy said he had dirt on you . ashley : i do n't owe you an explanation , kyle . when you came back into town , you turned around and stabbed your own father in the back because you were colluding with victor , who would do anything to inflict damage on our family . for all i know , you 're still working with him . kyle : that 's ridiculous . ashley : what about that missing video -- you know the one where abby was interviewing dina , that clip where she says that jack is n't john abbott 's son ? you had access to that because you were living in the house . god knows you love to ingratiate yourself to victor . what better way than to hand him that little nugget -- inflict the worst pain you could on your own father ? i 'm right , are n't i ? kyle : you do n't get to turn this around on me . ashley : you know , not that long ago , you looked me in the eye . you said you 'd do anything to prove your loyalty to me . what is this ? are you trying to play games with me ? you 're trying to lower my guard so you can ruin my reputation ? did you put him up to this ? ! jack : we are not trying to harm you ! if you 're compromised right now , if you 're trying to get out of whatever situation this is with andrew , we want to help ! ashley : i do n't need you to save me , jack ! i need you to leave so i can do my job ! and you -- i am so sick and tired of you , kyle . if you ca n't support me , then give me your resignation right now . and you , too -- why do n't you just resign from the board while you 're at it ? i will not stop you . no ? well , then i guess we 're done here . goodbye . [ sighs ] cane : i 'm sorry . i just -- i just do n't know how to do this . you know , you 're in here , and just ... i think about you in your cell . it drives me crazy . and i would change places with you if i could . i just -- i just feel helpless . that 's all . lily : i know . i miss you so much . and every night i go to sleep , i think about being in our bed together , and i try to imagine the sounds of our house -- you know , sam on the monitor and ... charlie getting water ... mattie 's music while she studies . i just -- i love you . i love all of you . cane : we love you . lily : i know . and that 's what gets me through each day . but , cane , i am not the same person anymore . i am not who i was before the accident and before this place . cane : i understand . i do . and i love you . i 'll always love you , no matter what . andrew : i had a nice little chat with your nephew kyle , but you probably know all about that . you 've been dragging your feet on this one , ashley . you needed a friendly little reminder that i am serious -- that , together , we sink or we float in this . ashley : and that was the last time you 're ever gon na threaten me . victoria : okay , look ... we need to stop with all this sniping and the backbiting . there 's too much at stake . now we have to take a look at what we 're dealing with here . there 's a threat , and it 's real . whoever sent these letters wants that . that 's why they all arrived at different times -- so that we 'd be careless and we would be paranoid . so , we have to proceed with caution . that 's what we have to do . we do n't know who sent these letters or how they know what they know , so we have to keep our guards up and be ready for the next move , because one thing is for sure -- something is coming . esther : cane ! oh , my god ! it 's been so long since i 've seen you ! cane : hey , esther . esther : ohh . ohh ! cane : you good ? esther : yeah . so , how are things ? cane : uh , okay . esther : oh , i 'm sorry . loaded question . cane : yeah . yeah . i just , uh -- you know , i kind of do n't know where to start or , you know , if you have the time . esther : oh , yeah . you know , i 'm just here meeting some friends for a late lunch . cane : well , i do n't want to keep you from that , so it 's okay . esther : oh , no , no , no . absolutely . i came here early for the sole purpose of grabbing a drink before .

'cause i am just so happy . [ kiss ] franco : yeah , you know what ? let 's forget about the brownies . let 's get out of here . elizabeth : okay . can you walk me to work ? franco : no , 'cause that 's not ... elizabeth : and i have a bazillion questions to ask you ! how was new york ? franco : new york was fine . elizabeth : did you settle that lawsuit ? franco : yeah , the lawsuit is finally settled . uh , yeah . the plaintiffs received , uh , compensation for their injuries . and i had to sell some of my paintings and the rest of my work to pay for the settlement , but they have received damages . um , yeah . and the rest of my paintings were returned to me . elizabeth : well , that 's great , right , for everyone ?

[ scene_break ] henry : remind me again . why are we celebrating ? vienna : because katie and jack are going to have a wonderful life , thanks to me . henry : i 'm afraid to ask . vienna : who would be very unhappy if katie and jack got married ? henry : that 's a good question . are they getting married ? vienna : what , you do n't think they should ? henry : uh , yeah . yeah , i guess if they want to , sure . vienna : well , they belong together . henry : i can think of two of three people who disagree with that . vienna : exactly . brad and carly . henry : right , right . brad and carly , brad and carly . so , you 're telling me that brad and carly did something not very nice ? vienna : horrible . brad had someone calling at the studio pretending they were the jeweler . and he knew that if katie overheard , she would think that jack had bought her an engagement ring . henry : and she would think this , why ? vienna : the point is , katie got her hopes up . and then when jack did n't ask her to marry him , you know , she was crushed . but i knew something was kosher . henry : not kosher . vienna : huh ? henry : never mind . vienna : so , i went to talk to my friend , the jeweler , and it turns out , everything was a trunk of lies . henry : that clears it right up . vienna : yeah , it certainly does . and now , jack and katie , they can live happily ever after . henry : i am sure they are very grateful . um , i 'm just curious though , since katie is usually a self - starter . why did you feel you had to interfere ? vienna : for you , henry . [ scene_break ] jack : katie , i know that this proposal comes on the heels of a lot of family stuff with brad , now carly . katie : i want to know what she said . and not the watered down version . i want to know exactly what she said . jack : she said she loves me and she wants me back . katie : okay , i knew that . jack : and she kissed me . listen , i do n't want to lie to you . for a moment there , i thought it felt like old times . but then i set her straight . katie : how ? jack : i told her i was in love with you . katie : you told her that ? you said those words ? jack : yeah . well , i realize it kind of comes a shock to you because somewhere along the way i forgot to tell you those words myself . but i -- i do . i love you , katie . katie : oh , jack . this is so backwards . jack : i know . i know it is . i know . first i ask you to marry me , and then i tell you i love you . i 'm out of practice . katie : it 's okay . i love you , too . jack : so , i 'm forgiven ? [ laughter ] for being backwards ? katie : yeah . i guess it kind of works for us . so , let 's go backwards again and you can tell me more about carly . [ jack laughs ] so , you told her you loved me , and -- jack : yes , and that i wanted to be with you . and that she 's just going to have to get used to it . katie : and then what ? jack : and then i left . and i realized that this is not the best time to be talking about carly , but i really do n't think that we should be keeping anything from each other . i know that you do n't want that . katie : no , i do n't want that . so , in the interest of full disclosure , i will tell you that it 's not easy to hear that carly put her cards on the table . i guess i 'm sure there was a part of you that loved to hear that she wants you back . jack : my ego had a moment , yes . but luckily -- luckily , i 've got a very good memory . i do n't want to live like that anymore . [ phone rings ] [ jack laughs ] katie : it could be about the kids . jack : yes , it could be . what 's up ? carly : hey , i 'm sorry to bother you . it 's about parker . and i know that we talked about telling him about paul together , but it 's in the paper . jack : so , he knows ? carly : yeah . jack : how 's he doing ? carly : not good . he 's back to how i left and how he ca n't trust anybody and then he ran out . jack : he left the house ? carly : no . no , not yet . he just went to his room . could you come by and talk to him , jack ? i do n't want him running off . jack : i 'll be right over . parker just found out about paul . i really got to get over there . he 's a mess . katie : to carly 's ? jack : yeah . look , i ca n't promise that anything 's going to be different . katie , i have three kids with a woman who 's not exactly honest . she 's going to be a part of our lives . that is , if you 'll say you 'll marry me . katie , i love you , and i want you to be my wife . [ jack laughs ] but you got ta know what comes with the package , okay ? parker , he still has a lot of problems . and j.j. and sage , they need a lot of attention . katie : i know . i know that . i love your kids . jack : they 're crazy about you . but , you have to know that there will be moments , like this . carly 's going to call and i 'm going to have to go over there . katie : it 's okay . you know i understand that . i want you to go . jack : so , you do ? you do understand ? katie : jack , you just told me about carly saying she wants you back and kissing you . because you know that i do n't want you holding anything back from me . and i love that you know that . and i love that you and i are so honest with each other , no matter how hard it is . i think that came out of being friends first , because we were never trying to put that perfect person forward . jack : well , half that time we were talking about how awful we felt . katie : exactly . so , i trust that in you . when you tell me how you feel , it 's exactly how you feel . so , if you tell me that carly kissing you just convinced you that i 'm right , then i believe you . jack : so ? katie : so -- you really want to propose , i think you know the answer . jack : okay , you know , i 'm going to do this right . katie : yeah ? jack : yes . i 'm going to ask you again , officially . i 'm going to make this something special . something that we both -- we both remember , with the ring , and the music and the whole nine yards . so , the next time , when you say yes -- if you say yes -- katie : hey , just do n't ask me to marry you , unless you want to get stuck . do n't say you were n't warned . [ scene_break ] henry : so , you made sure jack and katie would get married for me ? vienna : because i know how much you love her . she 's your best friend . and now that you 're happy , i know that you want her to be happy , too . henry : well , you 're right , i do . vienna : and it did n't hurt that brad got furious . henry : that 's my girl . vienna : and that tacky carly , she does n't deserve jack . and now she ca n't have him . henry : well , there 'll be no dancing in milltown tonight . vienna : are you proud of me ? henry : yes . i 'm very proud of you . but , tell me -- altruist that you are , is there some other reason that you want katie to be happy ? you do n't have to worry , vienna . vienna : oh , i 'm not worried . i mean , my mother was right in a lot of things -- never to trust a pretty woman . henry : is this about your mother ? vienna : my mama is a beautiful woman , but unfortunately , one beautiful woman was n't enough for my father . so , she always warned me never to have a pretty best friend . she 'll just steal your man . henry : you 're not going to lose me . vienna : i know . henry : you do ? vienna : yeah , because you make me happy , and i make you happy . so , why would you leave me ? as fun as you are , just sometimes , i get a little lonely and i just want to talk to a girl and in the past i 've had a problem trusting people . and now , things have changed with katie and i really like her . is that okay ? henry : of course it is . vienna : so , she can be my best friend , too ? henry : i insist on it . and you 're right . you 're right , you do make me happy .

[ scene_break ] jack : katie , i know that this proposal comes on the heels of a lot of family stuff with brad , now carly . katie : i want to know what she said . and not the watered down version . i want to know exactly what she said . jack : she said she loves me and she wants me back . katie : okay , i knew that . jack : and she kissed me . listen , i do n't want to lie to you . for a moment there , i thought it felt like old times . but then i set her straight . katie : how ? jack : i told her i was in love with you . katie : you told her that ? you said those words ? jack : yeah . well , i realize it kind of comes a shock to you because somewhere along the way i forgot to tell you those words myself . but i -- i do . i love you , katie . katie : oh , jack . this is so backwards . jack : i know . i know it is . i know . first i ask you to marry me , and then i tell you i love you . i 'm out of practice . katie : it 's okay . i love you , too . jack : so , i 'm forgiven ? [ laughter ] for being backwards ? katie : yeah . i guess it kind of works for us . so , let 's go backwards again and you can tell me more about carly . [ jack laughs ] so , you told her you loved me , and -- jack : yes , and that i wanted to be with you . and that she 's just going to have to get used to it . katie : and then what ? jack : and then i left . and i realized that this is not the best time to be talking about carly , but i really do n't think that we should be keeping anything from each other . i know that you do n't want that . katie : no , i do n't want that . so , in the interest of full disclosure , i will tell you that it 's not easy to hear that carly put her cards on the table . i guess i 'm sure there was a part of you that loved to hear that she wants you back . jack : my ego had a moment , yes . but luckily -- luckily , i 've got a very good memory . i do n't want to live like that anymore .

[ jack laughs ] but you got ta know what comes with the package , okay ? parker , he still has a lot of problems . and j.j. and sage , they need a lot of attention . katie : i know . i know that . i love your kids . jack : they 're crazy about you . but , you have to know that there will be moments , like this . carly 's going to call and i 'm going to have to go over there . katie : it 's okay . you know i understand that . i want you to go . jack : so , you do ? you do understand ? katie : jack , you just told me about carly saying she wants you back and kissing you . because you know that i do n't want you holding anything back from me . and i love that you know that . and i love that you and i are so honest with each other , no matter how hard it is . i think that came out of being friends first , because we were never trying to put that perfect person forward . jack : well , half that time we were talking about how awful we felt . katie : exactly . so , i trust that in you . when you tell me how you feel , it 's exactly how you feel . so , if you tell me that carly kissing you just convinced you that i 'm right , then i believe you . jack : so ? katie : so -- you really want to propose , i think you know the answer . jack : okay , you know , i 'm going to do this right . katie : yeah ? jack : yes . i 'm going to ask you again , officially . i 'm going to make this something special . something that we both -- we both remember , with the ring , and the music and the whole nine yards . so , the next time , when you say yes -- if you say yes -- katie : hey , just do n't ask me to marry you , unless you want to get stuck . do n't say you were n't warned . [ scene_break ] henry : so , you made sure jack and katie would get married for me ? vienna : because i know how much you love her . she 's your best friend . and now that you 're happy , i know that you want her to be happy , too . henry : well , you 're right , i do . vienna : and it did n't hurt that brad got furious . henry : that 's my girl . vienna : and that tacky carly , she does n't deserve jack . and now she ca n't have him . henry : well , there 'll be no dancing in milltown tonight . vienna : are you proud of me ? henry : yes . i 'm very proud of you . but , tell me -- altruist that you are , is there some other reason that you want katie to be happy ? you do n't have to worry , vienna . vienna : oh , i 'm not worried . i mean , my mother was right in a lot of things -- never to trust a pretty woman . henry : is this about your mother ? vienna : my mama is a beautiful woman , but unfortunately , one beautiful woman was n't enough for my father . so , she always warned me never to have a pretty best friend . she 'll just steal your man . henry : you 're not going to lose me . vienna : i know . henry : you do ? vienna : yeah , because you make me happy , and i make you happy . so , why would you leave me ? as fun as you are , just sometimes , i get a little lonely and i just want to talk to a girl and in the past i 've had a problem trusting people . and now , things have changed with katie and i really like her . is that okay ? henry : of course it is . vienna : so , she can be my best friend , too ? henry : i insist on it . and you 're right . you 're right , you do make me happy .

sonny : what are the advantages of the new hires ? they wo n't have a personal agenda . as for the remaining staff , i am so proud of their dedication and hard work . i know that we got off to a rocky start , but i am confident , if we work together as a team , we will bring titan success it 's never seen before . [ beep ] justin : finally , a ceo i can be proud of , and he happens to be my son too . sonny : yeah , well , you were n't so proud when i fired the 50 employees that deimos hired in my first week . justin : well , you asked me to reserve judgment until you had the chance to get settled , and now that you have , i can see that you 're taking titan in the right direction . sonny : well , thank you for the support -- from you and uncle vic . it means a lot to me . with deimos out of the picture for good , nothing 's gon na stop me from achieving everything i set my mind to . gabi : i still ca n't believe he 's really dead . rafe : well , i 'm just sorry you had to be the one to find him . gabi : yeah , yeah , i could 've done without deimos ' dead body appearing and shocking the hell out of me . but you know what ? after everything that he 's put me through , what i ca n't stand is that jj is being held for his murder . and until the police -- rafe : yeah . gabi : have evidence to prove that , there 's no way that i will ever believe it . [ phone ringing ] jennifer : i do n't understand how they can hold you here without any solid proof . jj : lani 's account of me attacking deimos -- it 's pretty damning , mom . abigail : she was high on halo like everybody else . no one was thinking straight . jj : the guy 's blood 's on my shirt . i keep thinking if i did kill him , i 'd at least remember shoving that knife in his chest . jennifer : right , you do n't remember because you did n't do it . jj : look , i appreciate your faith in me , both of you , but knowing how much i hated this guy , i ca n't help but think it 's possible i did kill him . [ somber music ] [ beep ] chad : [ sighs ] do you want to be my wife ? abigail : yes . chad : okay . abigail : okay . [ dramatic music ] chad : why ca n't i stop thinking about her ? [ dramatic music ] rafe : listen , as far as i know , jj has n't been charged with anything , and trask -- i doubt she can even make a case with the evidence that she has . gabi : and you do n't think lani 's testimony 's damning enough ? rafe : lani was drugged just like everyone else . gabi : okay , but what about the blood on jj 's shirt ? rafe : the blood on his shirt , come on . you know , a halfway decent defense attorney could come up with 100 reasons as to why it was there . gabi : do you think he did it ? rafe : i do n't know . honestly , i do n't know . but even if he did , he was under the influence of a hallucinogen , so he might not be held accountable . gabi : okay , but listen , even if he was following orders or acting to protect some sort of innocent party , it -- the guilt of killing a living soul -- i mean , i -- i 've seen the man be upset because he could n't help a victim because he did n't have time for them , maybe because he could n't , and -- why are you looking at me like that , rafe ? rafe : just sounds to me like you still have feelings for the guy . [ light music ] jj : the reason i became a cop was the protect the people i love . and i thought , when i became a detective , i 'd finally be able to bring down deimos . guess in -- in the end , even dead , he ended up taking me down .

[ melancholy music ] abigail : i do n't know what this is about , but i really need to be in there with my brother . dario : i know you 're worried about your brother , and i am sorry to take you away from him , but for me this is a question of survival , of life and death . abigail : what do you mean ? what happened ? dario : i -- i ca n't talk to you about it here . will you -- will you please come with me ? [ smooth music ] abigail : thank you . dario : mm - hmm . so i just learned that check on me sooner than later . abigail : how soon ? dario : i do n't know . could be tomorrow . could be today . since they 've gotten more aggressive with the laws , they 've amped up the screening process , so if they sense that something 's not 100 % legitimate , they can just arrest and deport me on the spot . abigail : and if you 're deported , um ... dario : yeah , i 'm pretty sure my mexican drug lord pal will be waiting to take me out the minute i cross the border . abigail : [ sighs ] dario : which is why it would be better , if the officials do come and check on me , that we are already married . abigail : my brother is being accused of murder . i ca n't really just run off and get married . dario : i know , i know , i know , i know , i know , i know . the timing ... sucks . but if i get kicked out of the country , i 'm not gon na have a future . abigail : yeah , i get that , but i just ca n't do -- i ca n't do that . dario : having a five - minute ceremony is n't gon na stop you from being there for your brother . abigail : i -- i know , but i j -- i mean , it 's just the idea . i mean , the idea that i would run off and do something that is supposed to be joyous and life- affirming , but meanwhile , my family 's going through hell -- dario : w -- okay , but would it -- would it help them if you deny yourself that joy ? abigail : okay , i 'm sorry , did you say deny myself joy ? this is n't a real marriage . it 's -- this is n't going to bring me any joy in the least , and , i mean , i 'm sorry if that sounds harsh , but i ca -- dario : no , i get it . i -- i understand . and i did n't mean that it would bring you actual joy . what i meant was it would n't be so strange if you were to do something positive and life - affirming , like you said , while your brother 's going through this rough time . i mean , you could use it maybe as a way to lessen the pain . people do that all the time . abigail : oh , come on . you know damn well nobody is gon na look at a marriage between you and me as a joyous , life - affirming occasion . it 's ... dario : yeah . i suppose not . that 's not it , is it ? abigail : what 's not it ? dario : you caring about what other people think -- that 's not you . maybe you 're having cold feet . abigail , i 've told you before , if you 've changed your mind , i 'll understand . but i need to know , and i need to know now , if you will marry me today . gabi : rafe , you know how some drugs make you say or do something that you normally do n't do ? rafe : oh , boy , did you -- did you do something when you were on halo that you regret ? gabi : i did n't stab deimos if that 's what you 're asking me , no . rafe : that 's not what i 'm asking . gabi ... gabi : i danced , okay ? rafe : danced ? gabi : yes , yes . rafe : you mean , like you danced on the table ? gabi : no , i danced with jj . rafe : so what 's wrong with that ? gabi : it was n't -- it was n't the dance part , that was -- i do n't know . rafe : what -- what part was it ? do i even -- do i want to know ? gabi : no , it was the way he made me feel when he was holding me . i felt like i was just ali -- i do n't -- it sounds -- this is weird , but it was -- rafe : sounds intense , huh ? gabi : yes , it was intense . it was intense because , at that moment , i felt like i was still in love with him , okay ? jj : this is the last thing you need , i know . jennifer : mm - mm , do n't you worry about me , 'cause i 'm fine . and you will be too once -- once the police see that you 're innocent . jj : i know you want to believe that . jennifer : 'cause it 's true . i gon na make some calls , but i will be -- i 'll be right out here , okay ? [ dramatic music ] [ phone rings ] hope . hope : oh , jenn . jennifer : oh , my goodness , thank god that security footage exonerated you and rafe . wait , what are you doing here ? hope : well , my job , i hope . jennifer : no , they said that you were in the hospital . they would 've have released you this quickly . hope : well , they did n't . i snuck out . jennifer : wait , you what ? hope : i snuck out . jennifer : why would you do that ? hope : 'cause i need to be here for you and jj . jennifer : no , you need to be in the hospital . i 'm taking you back there . hope : no , jenn , listen , i need to make sure the whole truth , the real truth , comes out about everything and make it very clear that a crime was committed under extraordinary circumstances -- jennifer : wait , you mean because everyone was on halo , right ? hope : yeah . justin : i 'm headed over to the police station right now to represent jj . i 'll do everything in my power to free him . sonny : i just wish i could do more to help jj . but unfortunately , i just do n't remember anything about -- i 'm gon na have you arrested ! deimos : you know what ? that 's almost as funny as you running titan . you do n't wan na make this any harder than it has to be . you can either give me the amulet , or i can take it from you . justin : sonny ? you okay ? sonny : yeah , i 'm good . i 'm just -- i 'm just -- i 'm just fuzzy from the halo , i guess , you know ? but i 'm happy that you 're helping out jj . i think that 's great , and i 'm sure you 're gon na prove that he did n't kill deimos . justin : yeah , i hope you 're right .

[ dramatic music ] sonny : it 's just work . paul : you 're not planning on doing another mass firing , are you ? sonny : no , no , no , as strongly as i felt about getting rid of all the people that deimos hired , it 's hitting me now just how jarring that was for the company , and i need to be extremely careful with the decisions that i make moving forward . paul : well , i knew you 'd come back to me . sonny : yeah , where did i go ? paul : to the mother ship , i thought . you know , i was starting to think that the sonny i knew had been taken over by aliens . sonny : come on , i was n't that bad . paul : maybe . but , you know , standing here , spouting logic and reason , it 's a far cry from the power - hungry despot who wanted to take over the world and did n't give a damn who he trampled along the way . sonny : luckily , i have you to keep my ambitions in check . paul : well , i 'm glad i 'm here . i 'm glad i 'm good for something . sonny : you 're good for a lot of things , paul . paul : what is it ? sonny : i do n't want to lie to you . paul : then do n't . sonny : i remembered something from last night . paul : i 'm listening . sonny : i was arguing with deimos in the corridor . and ripped the amulet from my neck . paul : then what ? sonny : nothing . i ca n't remember past that . i do n't know . paul : okay , okay , maybe you did n't argue at all . sonny : what do you mean ? paul : well , because of the drugs , maybe your mind conjured up a memory . look , look , either way , you said that you were arguing with him in the hallway , but they find deimos killed in the living room . i mean , there 's a time gap -- that someone could have stepped in . sonny : to finish the job ? is that what you mean ? paul : maybe . now , now , now , you have n't shared this memory with anyone ? sonny : no , no , no , only you . i wanted to keep it a secret . i 'm just worried that jj 's being held under false pretenses . paul : no , i called my sources downtown . i mean , they barely have a case . sonny : oh , so does that mean that he could be released ? paul : maybe by the end of the day . okay , um , unless things change , let 's -- let 's just keep this memory between us . rafe : so you 're saying that you do still having feelings for jj . gabi : no , it was just in the moment . it does n't -- it did not mean anything . rafe : oh , 'cause when the drug wore off , then you did n't have those feelings . is that what you 're saying ? gabi : no -- jj and i are in the past okay ? and that 's it . we 're done . rafe : you 're sure ? gabi : yes , i 'm positive . rafe : positive . gabi : okay , i 'm building a future with chad , and i could not be happier . chad : hey . jennifer : hey . chad : hi , how 's -- ? jennifer : hi . chad : how 's jj 's case coming along ? jennifer : uh , hope is interviewing him right now . chad : without a lawyer ? jennifer : he decided he did n't want anyone to represent him in -- for this preliminary interview . chad : okay , w -- if it 's about money , then i -- anything i can do to help ? jennifer : no , it 's not -- oh , thanks , but justin is gon na represent him , and , you know , give us the family discount , so he 's on his way here now . chad : okay . you sure there 's nothing i can do ? jennifer : actually , there is something you can do . chad : all right , name it . jennifer : you can talk abigail out of marrying dario . chad : uh , she divorced me , jennifer , so not sure i have much of a say . jennifer : she loves you . chad : how do you know that ? jennifer : i know -- i know that . chad : i 'm with gabi now , so . jennifer : that does n't mean you still do n't care about abigail . and even if you never get back together , you still share a child , so i think that 's reason enough -- chad : yeah , i -- i know , of course i care -- i care about abigail , her happiness means everything . jennifer : right , then why would you let her throw her life away and marry someone that is not right for her ? chad : everybody knows how i feel about dario , but she 's an adult -- she 's not gon na listen -- jennifer : what , so do you think it 's okay to just let her make this terrible choice ? chad : okay , you know what ? i came here to talk to her about something that 's not this , so , um ... she 's not with jj anymore ? jennifer : no , she was , and then dario came by and said that he needed to talk to her . chad : she just left ? jennifer : yes , and he said it was something very important . chad : okay . jennifer : and so she 's gone . i do n't know where they went . maybe the club ? i have no idea . chad : okay , the club , then i 'm gon na go . thank you . thank you . let me know if you need anything . abigail : is this your way of testing me to see i 'll really go through with this ? dario : you did n't answer the question . abigail : i told you i would marry you -- i announced it in front of my ex- husband . i do n't really know what else you need . dario : i need to know that you 'll do it today because , if immigration does pop in , i 'll already be legal . abigail : ugh , okay , but if they know that we are going to get married , then -- dario : what 's -- what 's the problem , abigail ? is it chad ? did something happen last night ? abigail : why would you ask me that ? dario : because other than you having cold feet or caring what people think , i ca n't think of any other reason of why you 'd be hesitating right now . abigail : nothing is going on with me and chad , but if that is what you are worried about , then -- dario : no , oh , no , no , no , i 'm worried -- i 'm worried about getting deported . okay , look , i know this is sudden , all right ? but the fact that we do n't have time to invite anyone , that i 'm not gon na tux , that you 're not gon na get a beautiful dress , should prove to you that this has nothing to do with romantic feelings on my part . abigail : but we ca n't just walk into a court and demand that a judge marries us -- we 've got to have an appointment , there 's the -- dario : i -- i already reached out to the courthouse to make an appointment in case you did say yes . ugh . courthouse is fully booked . mayor carver ? abigail : what are you doing ? what -- ? dario : i 'm gon na see if he can marry us . abe : why , hello . you know , there does n't seem to be anyone here . can you take my order ? dario : of course , and maybe , while you 're waiting , you would n't mind doing a small favor for me and abigail . abe : well , how small ? dario : by the power vested in you by the good people of this town , would you pronounce us husband and wife ? let 's party ! you were -- dario : in love ? well , no , we -- we have been for a while . that 's why we can not wait any longer , because , you know what they say , once you 've found the person you want to spend the rest of your life with , you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible . abe : well , i would n't want it said that i stood in the way of true love , but , if the groom does n't mind , i would like to hear from the bride - to - be as well . abigail , i would do anything for you and your family . abigail : i know that , yeah . abe : so before i do this , i want you to look me in the eye and answer one question . is getting married to this young man , so soon after you got a divorce from chad , is that what you really want ? rafe : well , you 're not the only one who had a little halo - induced romantic moment last night . gabi : really ? you and hope danced too ? rafe : oh , yeah , we danced . yeah , we did , and i asked her to marry me . gabi : what ? no way . rafe : yeah , way . gabi : wait , rafe , what did she say ? rafe : well , she seemed willing , it 's just , um , there 's a little hitch . gabi : what do you -- ? okay , let me guess . you think because she was high on halo that she did n't mean it ? rafe : no , that 's not what i think at all . she seemed like she was totally genuine -- it 's just that she wants closure in bo 's death . and the only way she feels she 's gon na get that and get justice for him is by taking care of deimos . gabi : i mean , the guy 's dead . it sounds like justice to me , you know ? rafe : yeah , that 's exactly what i was thinking . gabi : okay , and ? rafe : okay , yes . so i 'm gon na propose again . gabi : yes ! rafe : but i need your help . [ jingling ] [ dramatic music ] chad : what -- you got -- you got the amulet now , you ca n't say hello anymore ? sonny : well , you obviously did n't want it , or you would n't have buried it in the sand . chad : i buried that thing for a good reason . sonny : well , i can think of 20 million good reasons to dig it up , and that 's what i did . chad : fair . i did n't believe that thing was cursed either , but i 'm telling you , it 's wicked , all right ? and the -- the party last night -- proof . sonny : so you 're blaming the amulet for deimos drugging all those people ? chad : yeah , he obviously wanted it , and drugging us was just the way he chose to do it . sonny : well , if it is bad luck , then deimos is the ultimate victim of the curse 'cause he was the last person to have his hands on it , and now he 's dead . chad : uh , no , except deimos is n't the only victim because jj 's life hangs in the balance . hope : this is what we know for sure . lani claims that she saw you attack deimos . justin : a memory that is highly suspect , since she was also under the influence of halo . hope : yeah , but there 's also the issue of the blood on his shirt from deimos . justin : strictly circumstantial -- could have happened any number of ways . hope : well , that is all we have so far . justin : in other words , you have no case . hope : and if there is no new evidence that comes to light in the next hour or so , the salem pd will have no choice but to let you go . until then , sit tight , and hope for the best . maybe even say a few prayers . [ dramatic music ] justin : looks like you 're pretty much off the hook . jj : we 'll see . justin : did n't you just hear what hope said ? they have no case against you . jj : so far . but even if i 'm not the one who stuck that knife in deimos ' chest , one of us did . she 's nationally recognized thing about picking out women 's jewelry , let alone the most important piece of jewelry that a woman could own . gabi : come on , you do n't have to worry -- i mean , your stylist little sister is going to help you , and i 'm not gon na disappoint , okay ? oh , i saw something in janet 's window that 's perfect . rafe : really ? gabi : yes , i did , yeah . rafe : okay , but hope has to like it . gabi : yeah , i mean , she 's gon na love it . not because it 's a stunner -- it 's because with it , she gets you . rafe : yeah , she does . it 's like a two for one bargain . gabi : yeah , seriously . look , it 's really important to find the right ring , but it 's more important to find the right guy . and hope did that . she chose you . rafe : that is very sweet of you . gabi : i love you . rafe : now let 's get out of here and find that perfect ring before someone else takes it , okay ? gabi : let 's go to janet 's . sonny : i 'm confident jj will be cleared . my dad 's working on getting him released right now . chad : yeah , so the , what , evidence is circumstantial ? sonny : i mean , thanks to deimos , none of us remember what happened . chad : except for lani . she saw jj attack him . sonny : and maybe she did . maybe it was the halo remembering . the bottom line here -- we might never remember who killed that son of a bitch . chad : who cares ? deimos has himself to thank for it . sonny : it 's kind of fitting , is n't it ? the victim 's own action providing a cover for the killer ? chad : yeah , well , yeah , i would n't say that maybe , you know , it wo n't come back to haunt someone . sonny : i mean , not as long as our memories do n't come back . chad : yeah , i 'm glad he 's gone -- along with the amulet . sonny : that thing really spooks you , does n't it ? chad : yeah , that 's what i get for not buying into my father 's superstitions . sonny : yeah , he did have a few that were out there , even for stefano . chad : for good reason . sonny : you think ? chad : yes . i never believed in luck . i believed that if you -- if you wanted something , you would just go out , and you would take it . sonny : and now ? chad : i do n't know . i 'm starting to think that maybe we do n't have as much control over our lives as we 'd like to believe . abigail : my marriage to chad was over long before we actually made it official , and i want to marry dario . and it would be really great to have somebody that i knew do it , but i understand if that makes you uncomfortable in any way . abe : yeah , well , i 'm going to call jennifer to see if she 's okay with this . abigail : i am an adult , and i think she 's kind of busy with jj right now , so . abe : i 'm not going to perform the ceremony without talking to your mother first . in fact , i 'll give her a call right now , so , excuse me . abigail : yeah . gabi : listen , i want you to like it too , okay ?

dario : you do n't have to say anything . abigail : oh , no , um , yeah , no , um ... i 'll say something , um ... [ clears throat ] [ exhales ] you know , um , everything that you say that i -- i did for you , you did for me . you were there for me when -- when no one else was , and i never really felt like i had to explain myself , even -- when things were kind of crazy . you just let me be who i am , and that really meant a lot to me . jj : those my release papers ? justin said i 'd be able to go home within the hour . hope : no , i 'm sorry . jj : for what ? what 's wrong ? hope : these are n't your release papers . this is a record of new evidence in the case against you . jj : i do n't believe it . they found my dna underneath deimos ' fingernails ? hope : which confirms lani 's testimony that you did , in fact , engage in a physical altercation with the victim . jj , the fact that you were under the influence of a hallucinogenic drug ... jj : was an extenuating circumstance , i know . hope : one the judge will hopefully take into account . you know , i do n't want to do this , but because of the new dna evidence , we 're gon na have to charge you with -- jj : with murder . hope : you have the right to remain silent . anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law . you have the right to an attorney . if you can not afford one , one ... one will be provided . do you understand the rights i just recited to you ?

[ beep ] justin : finally , a ceo i can be proud of , and he happens to be my son too . sonny : yeah , well , you were n't so proud when i fired the 50 employees that deimos hired in my first week . justin : well , you asked me to reserve judgment until you had the chance to get settled , and now that you have , i can see that you 're taking titan in the right direction . sonny : well , thank you for the support -- from you and uncle vic . it means a lot to me . with deimos out of the picture for good , nothing 's gon na stop me from achieving everything i set my mind to . gabi : i still ca n't believe he 's really dead . rafe : well , i 'm just sorry you had to be the one to find him . gabi : yeah , yeah , i could 've done without deimos ' dead body appearing and shocking the hell out of me . but you know what ? after everything that he 's put me through , what i ca n't stand is that jj is being held for his murder . and until the police -- rafe : yeah . gabi : have evidence to prove that , there 's no way that i will ever believe it . [ phone ringing ] jennifer : i do n't understand how they can hold you here without any solid proof . jj : lani 's account of me attacking deimos -- it 's pretty damning , mom . abigail : she was high on halo like everybody else . no one was thinking straight . jj : the guy 's blood 's on my shirt . i keep thinking if i did kill him , i 'd at least remember shoving that knife in his chest . jennifer : right , you do n't remember because you did n't do it . jj : look , i appreciate your faith in me , both of you , but knowing how much i hated this guy , i ca n't help but think it 's possible i did kill him . [ somber music ] [ beep ] chad : [ sighs ] do you want to be my wife ? abigail : yes . chad : okay . abigail : okay . [ dramatic music ] chad : why ca n't i stop thinking about her ? [ dramatic music ] rafe : listen , as far as i know , jj has n't been charged with anything , and trask -- i doubt she can even make a case with the evidence that she has . gabi : and you do n't think lani 's testimony 's damning enough ? rafe : lani was drugged just like everyone else . gabi : okay , but what about the blood on jj 's shirt ? rafe : the blood on his shirt , come on . you know , a halfway decent defense attorney could come up with 100 reasons as to why it was there . gabi : do you think he did it ? rafe : i do n't know . honestly , i do n't know . but even if he did , he was under the influence of a hallucinogen , so he might not be held accountable . gabi : okay , but listen , even if he was following orders or acting to protect some sort of innocent party , it -- the guilt of killing a living soul -- i mean , i -- i 've seen the man be upset because he could n't help a victim because he did n't have time for them , maybe because he could n't , and -- why are you looking at me like that , rafe ? rafe : just sounds to me like you still have feelings for the guy . [ light music ] jj : the reason i became a cop was the protect the people i love . and i thought , when i became a detective , i 'd finally be able to bring down deimos . guess in -- in the end , even dead , he ended up taking me down . [ knocking ] dario : hey , um ... abigail : dario , um , what are you doing here ? dario : i 'm so sorry to interrupt , but i need to speak to you . it 's important . jennifer : this is important too -- abigail : mom , please .

[ melancholy music ] abigail : i do n't know what this is about , but i really need to be in there with my brother . dario : i know you 're worried about your brother , and i am sorry to take you away from him , but for me this is a question of survival , of life and death . abigail : what do you mean ? what happened ? dario : i -- i ca n't talk to you about it here . will you -- will you please come with me ? [ smooth music ] abigail : thank you . dario : mm - hmm . so i just learned that check on me sooner than later . abigail : how soon ? dario : i do n't know . could be tomorrow . could be today . since they 've gotten more aggressive with the laws , they 've amped up the screening process , so if they sense that something 's not 100 % legitimate , they can just arrest and deport me on the spot . abigail : and if you 're deported , um ... dario : yeah , i 'm pretty sure my mexican drug lord pal will be waiting to take me out the minute i cross the border . abigail : [ sighs ] dario : which is why it would be better , if the officials do come and check on me , that we are already married . abigail : my brother is being accused of murder . i ca n't really just run off and get married . dario : i know , i know , i know , i know , i know , i know . the timing ... sucks . but if i get kicked out of the country , i 'm not gon na have a future . abigail : yeah , i get that , but i just ca n't do -- i ca n't do that . dario : having a five - minute ceremony is n't gon na stop you from being there for your brother . abigail : i -- i know , but i j -- i mean , it 's just the idea . i mean , the idea that i would run off and do something that is supposed to be joyous and life- affirming , but meanwhile , my family 's going through hell -- dario : w -- okay , but would it -- would it help them if you deny yourself that joy ? abigail : okay , i 'm sorry , did you say deny myself joy ? this is n't a real marriage . it 's -- this is n't going to bring me any joy in the least , and , i mean , i 'm sorry if that sounds harsh , but i ca -- dario : no , i get it . i -- i understand . and i did n't mean that it would bring you actual joy . what i meant was it would n't be so strange if you were to do something positive and life - affirming , like you said , while your brother 's going through this rough time . i mean , you could use it maybe as a way to lessen the pain . people do that all the time . abigail : oh , come on . you know damn well nobody is gon na look at a marriage between you and me as a joyous , life - affirming occasion . it 's ... dario : yeah . i suppose not . that 's not it , is it ? abigail : what 's not it ? dario : you caring about what other people think -- that 's not you . maybe you 're having cold feet . abigail , i 've told you before , if you 've changed your mind , i 'll understand . but i need to know , and i need to know now , if you will marry me today . gabi : rafe , you know how some drugs make you say or do something that you normally do n't do ? rafe : oh , boy , did you -- did you do something when you were on halo that you regret ? gabi : i did n't stab deimos if that 's what you 're asking me , no . rafe : that 's not what i 'm asking . gabi ... gabi : i danced , okay ? rafe : danced ? gabi : yes , yes . rafe : you mean , like you danced on the table ? gabi : no , i danced with jj . rafe : so what 's wrong with that ? gabi : it was n't -- it was n't the dance part , that was -- i do n't know . rafe : what -- what part was it ? do i even -- do i want to know ? gabi : no , it was the way he made me feel when he was holding me . i felt like i was just ali -- i do n't -- it sounds -- this is weird , but it was -- rafe : sounds intense , huh ? gabi : yes , it was intense . it was intense because , at that moment , i felt like i was still in love with him , okay ? jj : this is the last thing you need , i know . jennifer : mm - mm , do n't you worry about me , 'cause i 'm fine . and you will be too once -- once the police see that you 're innocent . jj : i know you want to believe that . jennifer : 'cause it 's true . i gon na make some calls , but i will be -- i 'll be right out here , okay ? [ dramatic music ] [ phone rings ] hope . hope : oh , jenn . jennifer : oh , my goodness , thank god that security footage exonerated you and rafe . wait , what are you doing here ? hope : well , my job , i hope . jennifer : no , they said that you were in the hospital . they would 've have released you this quickly . hope : well , they did n't . i snuck out . jennifer : wait , you what ? hope : i snuck out . jennifer : why would you do that ? hope : 'cause i need to be here for you and jj . jennifer : no , you need to be in the hospital . i 'm taking you back there . hope : no , jenn , listen , i need to make sure the whole truth , the real truth , comes out about everything and make it very clear that a crime was committed under extraordinary circumstances -- jennifer : wait , you mean because everyone was on halo , right ? hope : yeah . justin : i 'm headed over to the police station right now to represent jj . i 'll do everything in my power to free him . sonny : i just wish i could do more to help jj . but unfortunately , i just do n't remember anything about -- i 'm gon na have you arrested ! deimos : you know what ? that 's almost as funny as you running titan . you do n't wan na make this any harder than it has to be . you can either give me the amulet , or i can take it from you . justin : sonny ? you okay ? sonny : yeah , i 'm good . i 'm just -- i 'm just -- i 'm just fuzzy from the halo , i guess , you know ? but i 'm happy that you 're helping out jj . i think that 's great , and i 'm sure you 're gon na prove that he did n't kill deimos . justin : yeah , i hope you 're right . [ dramatic music ] sonny : is it possible that i -- no , no , no , no , i would 've remembered if i had . paul : remember what ? sonny : how long you been standing there ? paul : long enough to see that something 's bothering you . you wan na tell me what it is ? [ dramatic music ] sonny : it 's just work . paul : you 're not planning on doing another mass firing , are you ? sonny : no , no , no , as strongly as i felt about getting rid of all the people that deimos hired , it 's hitting me now just how jarring that was for the company , and i need to be extremely careful with the decisions that i make moving forward . paul : well , i knew you 'd come back to me . sonny : yeah , where did i go ? paul : to the mother ship , i thought . you know , i was starting to think that the sonny i knew had been taken over by aliens . sonny : come on , i was n't that bad . paul : maybe . but , you know , standing here , spouting logic and reason , it 's a far cry from the power - hungry despot who wanted to take over the world and did n't give a damn who he trampled along the way . sonny : luckily , i have you to keep my ambitions in check . paul : well , i 'm glad i 'm here . i 'm glad i 'm good for something . sonny : you 're good for a lot of things , paul . paul : what is it ? sonny : i do n't want to lie to you . paul : then do n't . sonny : i remembered something from last night . paul : i 'm listening . sonny : i was arguing with deimos in the corridor . and ripped the amulet from my neck . paul : then what ? sonny : nothing . i ca n't remember past that . i do n't know . paul : okay , okay , maybe you did n't argue at all . sonny : what do you mean ? paul : well , because of the drugs , maybe your mind conjured up a memory . look , look , either way , you said that you were arguing with him in the hallway , but they find deimos killed in the living room . i mean , there 's a time gap -- that someone could have stepped in . sonny : to finish the job ? is that what you mean ? paul : maybe . now , now , now , you have n't shared this memory with anyone ? sonny : no , no , no , only you . i wanted to keep it a secret . i 'm just worried that jj 's being held under false pretenses . paul : no , i called my sources downtown . i mean , they barely have a case . sonny : oh , so does that mean that he could be released ? paul : maybe by the end of the day . okay , um , unless things change , let 's -- let 's just keep this memory between us . rafe : so you 're saying that you do still having feelings for jj . gabi : no , it was just in the moment . it does n't -- it did not mean anything . rafe : oh , 'cause when the drug wore off , then you did n't have those feelings . is that what you 're saying ? gabi : no -- jj and i are in the past okay ? and that 's it . we 're done . rafe : you 're sure ? gabi : yes , i 'm positive . rafe : positive . gabi : okay , i 'm building a future with chad , and i could not be happier . chad : hey . jennifer : hey . chad : hi , how 's -- ? jennifer : hi . chad : how 's jj 's case coming along ? jennifer : uh , hope is interviewing him right now . chad : without a lawyer ? jennifer : he decided he did n't want anyone to represent him in -- for this preliminary interview . chad : okay , w -- if it 's about money , then i -- anything i can do to help ? jennifer : no , it 's not -- oh , thanks , but justin is gon na represent him , and , you know , give us the family discount , so he 's on his way here now . chad : okay . you sure there 's nothing i can do ? jennifer : actually , there is something you can do . chad : all right , name it . jennifer : you can talk abigail out of marrying dario . chad : uh , she divorced me , jennifer , so not sure i have much of a say . jennifer : she loves you . chad : how do you know that ? jennifer : i know -- i know that . chad : i 'm with gabi now , so . jennifer : that does n't mean you still do n't care about abigail . and even if you never get back together , you still share a child , so i think that 's reason enough -- chad : yeah , i -- i know , of course i care -- i care about abigail , her happiness means everything . jennifer : right , then why would you let her throw her life away and marry someone that is not right for her ? chad : everybody knows how i feel about dario , but she 's an adult -- she 's not gon na listen -- jennifer : what , so do you think it 's okay to just let her make this terrible choice ? chad : okay , you know what ? i came here to talk to her about something that 's not this , so , um ... she 's not with jj anymore ? jennifer : no , she was , and then dario came by and said that he needed to talk to her . chad : she just left ? jennifer : yes , and he said it was something very important . chad : okay . jennifer : and so she 's gone . i do n't know where they went . maybe the club ? i have no idea . chad : okay , the club , then i 'm gon na go . thank you . thank you . let me know if you need anything . abigail : is this your way of testing me to see i 'll really go through with this ? dario : you did n't answer the question . abigail : i told you i would marry you -- i announced it in front of my ex- husband . i do n't really know what else you need . dario : i need to know that you 'll do it today because , if immigration does pop in , i 'll already be legal . abigail : ugh , okay , but if they know that we are going to get married , then -- dario : what 's -- what 's the problem , abigail ? is it chad ? did something happen last night ? abigail : why would you ask me that ? dario : because other than you having cold feet or caring what people think , i ca n't think of any other reason of why you 'd be hesitating right now . abigail : nothing is going on with me and chad , but if that is what you are worried about , then -- dario : no , oh , no , no , no , i 'm worried -- i 'm worried about getting deported . okay , look , i know this is sudden , all right ? but the fact that we do n't have time to invite anyone , that i 'm not gon na tux , that you 're not gon na get a beautiful dress , should prove to you that this has nothing to do with romantic feelings on my part . abigail : but we ca n't just walk into a court and demand that a judge marries us -- we 've got to have an appointment , there 's the -- dario : i -- i already reached out to the courthouse to make an appointment in case you did say yes . ugh . courthouse is fully booked . mayor carver ? abigail : what are you doing ? what -- ? dario : i 'm gon na see if he can marry us . abe : why , hello . you know , there does n't seem to be anyone here . can you take my order ? dario : of course , and maybe , while you 're waiting , you would n't mind doing a small favor for me and abigail . abe : well , how small ? dario : by the power vested in you by the good people of this town , would you pronounce us husband and wife ? let 's party ! you were -- dario : in love ? well , no , we -- we have been for a while . that 's why we can not wait any longer , because , you know what they say , once you 've found the person you want to spend the rest of your life with , you want the rest of your life to start as soon as possible . abe : well , i would n't want it said that i stood in the way of true love , but , if the groom does n't mind , i would like to hear from the bride - to - be as well . abigail , i would do anything for you and your family . abigail : i know that , yeah . abe : so before i do this , i want you to look me in the eye and answer one question . is getting married to this young man , so soon after you got a divorce from chad , is that what you really want ? rafe : well , you 're not the only one who had a little halo - induced romantic moment last night . gabi : really ? you and hope danced too ? rafe : oh , yeah , we danced . yeah , we did , and i asked her to marry me . gabi : what ? no way . rafe : yeah , way . gabi : wait , rafe , what did she say ? rafe : well , she seemed willing , it 's just , um , there 's a little hitch . gabi : what do you -- ? okay , let me guess . you think because she was high on halo that she did n't mean it ? rafe : no , that 's not what i think at all . she seemed like she was totally genuine -- it 's just that she wants closure in bo 's death . and the only way she feels she 's gon na get that and get justice for him is by taking care of deimos . gabi : i mean , the guy 's dead . it sounds like justice to me , you know ? rafe : yeah , that 's exactly what i was thinking . gabi : okay , and ? rafe : okay , yes . so i 'm gon na propose again . gabi : yes ! rafe : but i need your help . [ jingling ] [ dramatic music ] chad : what -- you got -- you got the amulet now , you ca n't say hello anymore ? sonny : well , you obviously did n't want it , or you would n't have buried it in the sand . chad : i buried that thing for a good reason . sonny : well , i can think of 20 million good reasons to dig it up , and that 's what i did . chad : fair . i did n't believe that thing was cursed either , but i 'm telling you , it 's wicked , all right ? and the -- the party last night -- proof . sonny : so you 're blaming the amulet for deimos drugging all those people ? chad : yeah , he obviously wanted it , and drugging us was just the way he chose to do it . sonny : well , if it is bad luck , then deimos is the ultimate victim of the curse 'cause he was the last person to have his hands on it , and now he 's dead . chad : uh , no , except deimos is n't the only victim because jj 's life hangs in the balance . hope : this is what we know for sure . lani claims that she saw you attack deimos . justin : a memory that is highly suspect , since she was also under the influence of halo . hope : yeah , but there 's also the issue of the blood on his shirt from deimos . justin : strictly circumstantial -- could have happened any number of ways . hope : well , that is all we have so far . justin : in other words , you have no case . hope : and if there is no new evidence that comes to light in the next hour or so , the salem pd will have no choice but to let you go . until then , sit tight , and hope for the best . maybe even say a few prayers . [ dramatic music ] justin : looks like you 're pretty much off the hook . jj : we 'll see . justin : did n't you just hear what hope said ? they have no case against you . jj : so far . but even if i 'm not the one who stuck that knife in deimos ' chest , one of us did . she 's nationally recognized thing about picking out women 's jewelry , let alone the most important piece of jewelry that a woman could own . gabi : come on , you do n't have to worry -- i mean , your stylist little sister is going to help you , and i 'm not gon na disappoint , okay ? oh , i saw something in janet 's window that 's perfect . rafe : really ? gabi : yes , i did , yeah . rafe : okay , but hope has to like it . gabi : yeah , i mean , she 's gon na love it . not because it 's a stunner -- it 's because with it , she gets you . rafe : yeah , she does . it 's like a two for one bargain . gabi : yeah , seriously . look , it 's really important to find the right ring , but it 's more important to find the right guy . and hope did that . she chose you . rafe : that is very sweet of you . gabi : i love you . rafe : now let 's get out of here and find that perfect ring before someone else takes it , okay ? gabi : let 's go to janet 's . sonny : i 'm confident jj will be cleared . my dad 's working on getting him released right now . chad : yeah , so the , what , evidence is circumstantial ? sonny : i mean , thanks to deimos , none of us remember what happened . chad : except for lani . she saw jj attack him . sonny : and maybe she did . maybe it was the halo remembering . the bottom line here -- we might never remember who killed that son of a bitch . chad : who cares ? deimos has himself to thank for it . sonny : it 's kind of fitting , is n't it ? the victim 's own action providing a cover for the killer ? chad : yeah , well , yeah , i would n't say that maybe , you know , it wo n't come back to haunt someone . sonny : i mean , not as long as our memories do n't come back . chad : yeah , i 'm glad he 's gone -- along with the amulet . sonny : that thing really spooks you , does n't it ?

dina : for your own damn good ! jack : well , autumn is in the air . i saw leaves falling from the trees . nikki : hmm . we should come back when they start changing color . jack : or we could just stay and wait , you know , count them all one by one . nikki : hmm . i love that idea . if only we did n't have those responsibilities in the real world . jack : hey , i can always delegate . nikki : really ? you would be willing to trade in your designer suits for flannel shirts and jeans ? jack : for a chance to hang out with you , you bet i would . nikki : hmm . that is rather romantic . you could grow a beard and chop wood , and i could gather berries and sing along with the creatures of the forest . jack : wait , how about i sing and you chop the wood ? nikki : no , there 's a problem there . jack : what ? nikki : well , your singing 's not quite as good as your cooking . jack : then it 's decided . we will use this place as an enchanted getaway for both of us . nikki : wonderful . jack : so , what can i do to help ? nikki : um , actually , you can stay out of the kitchen , please . um , i know . you can build a fire . jack : done . abby ? abby : uncle jack . hi . jack : hi . abby : i was surprised when i saw your car . i guess we had the same idea . or we did n't have the same idea at all . nikki : hi , abby . it 's good to see you . abby : what are you two trying to do ? start the final newman / abbott war ? nick : [ sighs ] just checking with faith to make sure she 's okay . she insisted on having the sleepover at peyton 's tonight . chelsea : well , she 's probably trying to show you that she 's okay . have you noticed that -- [ cellphone chimes ] oh , that was fast . what 'd she say ? nick : she gave the `` i 'm okay `` emoji . chelsea : you do n't look okay . nick : i 'm just worried maybe she needed more time to process this , you know ? probably should have kept her home tonight . chelsea : faith is resilient . she 's going to be fine . besides , in the moment , you have a bigger problem to be thinking about . nick : what 's that ? chelsea : um , look around . this place is usually jumping by now . it 's a graveyard . nick : oh , look at that . i had n't noticed . chelsea : and where 's all your staff ? what ? did everybody call in sick ? nick : gave them the night off . chelsea : oh . because it 's so slow ? nick : no . i , uh , wanted to shut the place down tonight . chelsea : why ? nick : 'cause i wanted to spend some time with my girl . you know , i was trying to be romantic , so , surprise ! chelsea : seriously ? well , that 's silly . i mean , you 're the one that had the rough day . i should be doing something special for you . nick : oh , you 're gon na . chelsea : [ laughs ] is that so ? nick : yeah . but first , you know , let 's eat . i had luis make up all your favorites . chelsea : oh , appetizer heaven ? nick : yes . chelsea : you ... are amazing . hmm . i know what i 'll do . i will make us specialty cocktails to go with those appetizers . nick : all right . chelsea : yeah . we can call it the `` nick and chelsea 's empty club `` cocktails . two coming up right now . ravi : this -- this senior living center , it 's one of the swanky places ? ashley : $ 8,000 a month . is that swanky enough for you ? yeah , whoever graham is subsidizing is enjoying a private suite with all the amenities that go along with it . ravi : is there a name on the bill ? ashley : no , just his . ravi : it could be an aunt , an uncle , a distant cousin . ashley : could be , except he told me and dina that he did n't have any living relatives . that 's why he 's so close to her . ravi : an elderly friend , an old teacher ? ashley : anything 's possible . but $ 8,000 ? that 's a lot of money for somebody that 's not family . what if the whole oliver twist routine is just a big , fat lie ? ravi : what are you doing ? ashley : i am calling boca pointe active living residence . ravi : you 're just gon na call them ? ashley : well , yeah . why not ? i need some answers . ravi : what are you gon na say ? `` hi . my mom 's trusted companion is lying , but i ca n't prove it . can you help ? `` ashley : you 're right . i got to come up with something better than that , right , because graham ca n't know that i 'm investigating his past . i think i 've got it . ravi : okay . ashley : hello . could i please be connected with the bloodworth suite ? ravi : [ whispers ] what are you doing ? ashley : thank you . [ whispers ] they 're transferring me . it 's working . jack : we came here for peace and tranquility . nikki : yes , the exact opposite of war . abby : well , i came here to relax . so much for that idea . jack : abby , this does n't have to be awkward . abby : oh , but it is . if my dad finds out that you two are here together ... nikki : it wo n't be an issue . we 're separated . i 've moved off the ranch . abby : right , but that never sticks . you always go back to him eventually . nikki : well , this is a complex situation . abby : how so ? nikki : i really do n't want to talk about it . abby : with me ? because i 'm a newman in name only . i 'm not part of the charmed inner circle . jack : wait , wait , wait . where is this coming from ? abby : something is going on with the family , and it 's been going on since way before the concert . everyone has turned against my dad , and no one will tell me why . nikki : honey , it does n't concern you . abby : but he 's my dad , nikki , and he 's a wreck , so that makes it my concern . nikki : look , victor has the ability to make anybody see what he wants them to see . abby : well , what i saw was a distraught man , one who 's lost the support of his children . he 's afraid of losing his grandchildren . nikki : has something happened ? abby : faith laid into him . jack : odds are he brought that on himself . abby : not this time , uncle jack . nikki , please . please do n't hurt my dad , not now . he might not want to seem vulnerable , but he is . and if he finds out that you two are playing house together , it will break him . and then he will lash out , and that will not be good for anyone . i 'm gon na go home . this was obviously a bad idea . jack : drive safely . she got to you , did n't she ? you want to go home ? i 'll take you . victor : i want to speak to my son alone , all right ? chelsea : nick and i are raising your grandchildren together now . we 're a team . victor : does that mean you 're in on the decision to turn faith against me ? nick : that 's not what she said . i did no such thing . i told my daughter the truth . it was my decision . chelsea : and i 'll do the same with connor . i 've always felt that it was important for him to have a relationship with you . it gives my little boy a connection to his dad . it 's what adam would have wanted , but , victor , please , if you go behind my back , if you try to undermine my connection with my son , you wo n't see connor anymore . no one gets to use my son as a weapon in their personal battles . nick : [ sighs ] victor : so is this what it 's come to ? you 're turning everyone against me , poisoning my grandchildren against me ? nick : that 's your spin . victor : no , son . this one is on you . nick : [ scoffs ] no , you 're wrong . that 's not how this works . this time the blame is on you . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . phyllis : it was a very good idea coming here . billy : yeah , i have one every once in a while . you know , studies show that when people exercise , endorphins are released . and when they reach the opiate receptors in the limbic system , people experience happiness . phyllis : okay , thank you , dr . abbott . billy : [ chuckles ] not a doctor . just read a bunch of pamphlets when i was in the waiting room while my mom was in icu . the truth is , i thought it 'd be good for both of us to release a little tension , a little energy . phyllis : you know , you should have just dropped the science lesson and told me you like my cute outfit and wanted to see me work up a sweat . billy : that 's just a bonus , okay ? come on . let 's hit the showers . phyllis : nope ! i am still keyed up . i need to use this energy . i need to get my endorphins firing . billy : okay . let 's do some , uh , core work . what do you say ? phyllis : okay . got it . yeah . all right . i bet i can out - crunch you . billy : i 'm sure you can . phyllis : no , i 'm serious . i 'm willing to prove it . billy : so a contest . phyllis : yeah . you scared you gon na lose ? billy : starting now . phyllis : oh . billy : 27 , 28 ... phyllis : 38 . billy : 39 . phyllis : 49 . billy : 47 . phyllis : 60 . billy : 67 . phyllis : 100 . graham : encouraging ashley to poke around my room is supposed to be beneficial how ? dina : well , i wanted to end her suspicions once and for all . graham : has she been asking questions about me again ? dina : well , yes . but badgering her does n't help matters any . graham : how am i supposed to react ? she 's constantly cross - examining me and pumping you for dirt . dina : well , perhaps you should sit down with her and hash things out . graham : you 're being too cavalier about this . the woman violated my privacy . dina : and you 're being too defensive . why is that ? did she find something ? graham : there 's nothing to find . ashley 's paranoid . i have no secrets from her or anyone else . [ telephone rings ] mrs. bloodworth : hello ? ashley : [ southern accent ] well , hi , there . may i please speak with mrs . bloodworth ? mrs. bloodworth : this is she . who 's calling ? ashley : oh , well , this is cherry , and i 'm with the southeast florida communications , and i am calling to offer you 25 % off your long - distance phone bill . and do you know why ? because our company is brand new to the area of boca . so i was just wonderin ' , how about if you tell me how much you 're payin ' . mrs. bloodworth : my son pays all the bills . ashley : your son ? mrs. bloodworth : you should talk to him . ashley : well , righty right . i will do that . now , if i could just get a little bit more informa -- hello ? hello ? [ normal voice ] that oily graham bloodworth is a liar . victor : involving a child in an adult issue -- what 's wrong with you ? nick : you put faith in the middle of this . you went behind my back and went and saw her at her camp . victor : the fact that i went to see my granddaughter at camp , that is what set you off ? nick : you filled her head with lies and then asked her not to tell anyone about it . victor : i was talking to her about a life - changing experience that she was about to face . nick : one you caused . but you did n't tell her about it . see , you do n't get it . this is a 10-year - old little girl , and you put her in a terrible position . she had to cover for you to both her parents . victor : i did not tell her to lie ! nick : well , she did . you had no right to tell her about that move . victor : what ? were you gon na wait until she steps off the bus and then suddenly confront her with a change in her life that 's gon na be traumatizing to her ? nick : i do n't need the parenting lesson , all right ? you were out to sabotage the relationship i had with my daughter , to hate the move into the penthouse with chelsea before it even happened . victor : that is utter nonsense . i would never do that to my granddaughter . and i 'm sure she did n't implicate me when you finally dragged the truth out of her . nick : faith is n't the one who told me . it was mom . mom called the camp and found out that you went behind our backs . phyllis : show me what you got . show me what you got ! billy : okay . phyllis : yeah ! all right , that was adequate . billy : adequate , yeah . i think it 's probably better that we , uh , skip the trash talking . what do you say ? phyllis : uh - huh . did i hurt his feelings ? i 'm sorry . billy : no , no , no . my feelings never get hurt . i just think it 's better to motivate and not devastate , you know ? phyllis : really ? billy : for instance , you know , i 'm kind of shocked how much you can benchpress . phyllis : oh , okay . so where 's the motivation in that statement ? 'cause all i hear is a backhanded compliment . you see , i 'm gon na be in awe if you do n't hit like a girl . billy : [ chuckles ] phyllis : how 's that for motivation ? billy : oh , yeah ? you want motivation ? i 'll show you right now . phyllis : okay . billy : i can motivate to prove you wrong . phyllis : oh , let 's see it . [ laughs ] all right . all right . i 'm impressed . [ laughs ] good . whose face are you imagining ? billy : jack 's . phyllis : yeah . billy : one of many . phyllis : [ laughs ] very good . billy : you 're up . phyllis : okay . here it goes . billy : show me what you got . that 's a good , little form you got there , phyllis . phyllis : yeah . want me to teach you some moves ? billy : yeah . let me guess -- are dina 's teeth flying with every punch ? phyllis : oh , no . i forgot all about that old bat . billy : nice ! phyllis : yeah ! billy : attagirl . okay . phyllis : [ laughs ] billy : what do we got here ? two , four . phyllis : what are you doing ? billy : just counting up the points . after calculating and re - calculating ... phyllis : all right . come on . get on with it already . billy : i have it on good authority that this right here ... phyllis : uh - huh ? billy : this is a draw . phyllis : [ laughs ] it 's not going down that way , abbott . you know why ? 'cause this is not over . first person to the sauna naked wins . [ chuckles ] billy : boom . i win . phyllis : flag on the play . you 're not naked . billy : does n't matter . i 'm not gon na give it away for free . what if somebody walks in here like that ? i ai n't gon na -- phyllis : i win . billy : wow . phyllis : the bet was ... billy : forget the bet . i get to see you like this . that means i win . phyllis : according to the rules ... billy : forget the rules . we 're gon na go to the judges on this one . judges ? ruling stands . phyllis : then i think we will call it a tie . billy : oh , now you want to call it a tie ? phyllis : mm - hmm . nick : you got to stop throwing blame around . this is n't my fault , nor is it mom 's . victor : ohhh . poor boy . you 're so innocent , are n't you ? nick : compared to the stunts you 've pulled , we are . victor : you 've been looking for an excuse to keep faith away from me ! i guess now you 've got it ! nick : [ scoffs ] i 've had many reasons over the years to do that , but i never have . i 'm not gon na forbid faith to see you . victor : so you say now . nick : i 'm not . i keep telling myself i 'm keeping faith out of this conflict because it 's good for her . but it 's really to protect you . i 'm not doing that anymore . victor : is that how you want it , son ? you 've got it . from now on , there will be no protection of you , either . remember that . nick : [ sighs ] chelsea : safe to come out ? i take it that did n't go well . nick : like you said , you know , we made our feelings known . the lines have been drawn . there 's no going back . jack : for someone who did n't want to leave , you do n't seem to be having a very good time . nikki : i 'm sorry . i ca n't help it . i was looking for an escape , but i guess there is n't one . jack : do n't let my niece and her hysterics get to you . victor is working overtime . he 's laying it on thick , trying to hold on to any family member who 's still willing to stomach him . nikki : abby 's not the only one who does n't approve of our relationship . your mother has some choice words for me , as usual . jack : well , no girl is ever gon na be good enough for her little boy . nikki : oh , i know that . and you can be sure victor 's gon na come up with some creative way to get back at us for daring to enjoy each other 's company . jack : listen to me . abby and dina may know victor , but they do n't know us . we have agreed there 's no more hidden agenda here . we are not together to spite the man or to make him jealous . nikki : yeah , but it 's not gon na change his reaction . jack : then bring it on . dina : i apologize if i overstepped . but ashley should back off now that her curiosity 's been sated . graham : and if she does n't ? what will you give her next ? access to my bank accounts , my passport ? dina : no need to get snippy . graham : the woman treats me abominably , yet you go right on enabling her . ashley barely tolerates your presence , which hurts you . i 've seen it ! but she still gets the benefit of every doubt , even though she has no faith in your judgment and still has n't forgiven you for things that have happened decades ago ! so why are you so desperate for her approval ? dina : because i owe her . graham : for what ? ending a marriage that was wrong from the start ? living your life ? dina : i 'm the reason she ca n't trust anyone . graham : how 's that your fault ? dina : [ voice breaking ] because ... i lied to her for years . for years . and when she finally found out the truth , it nearly destroyed her . graham : what truth ? dina : [ sobbing ] john abbott was n't her father . phyllis : [ chuckles ] okay , that was , like , so much better than a romantic dinner . billy : yeah , it was . phyllis : no , not just that . the whole night . billy : you know , what made it perfect , besides not being caught during our awards ceremony , we did n't mention work . phyllis : [ sighs ] billy : once . phyllis : i know . you know why ? because blocking that stuff out makes life better when we focus on one another , you know . but unfortunately , tomorrow we 're gon na have to start punching the clocks . billy : whatever . in a few hours . phyllis : really ? are you suggesting that we go back into the gym and do some more crunches ? because i 'm down with that . billy : no , i 'm not suggesting that at all . phyllis : really ? you think the elliptical , the treadmill , the speed bag ? billy : nope . phyllis : then what is it that you want ? billy : push our luck . see if we can avoid getting caught again . ashley : i 'm certain that woman on the phone was graham 's mother . ravi : did she mention him by name ? ashley : no ! no , she did n't , but she said her son pays all her bills . and it was graham 's name on the statement to the facility . ravi : okay . so what if you 're right ? i mean , it 's not a crime for a son to pay his mother 's bills . ashley : ravi , obviously not , but why is he lying ? why did he tell dina and me that both of his parents are dead ? why is he saying he has no living relatives when clearly he does ? nikki : this is nikki . i 'm not around right now . please leave a message and i 'll call you back . victor : you have made your loyalties clear . damaging my relationship with my granddaughter faith comes at a cost . jack : we can handle victor . we have before . he will never dictate my life again . i thought you felt the same way . nikki : i do . jack : then to hell with what he or anyone else thinks . nikki : what does this mean for us ? jack : i do n't know . but look where we are right now . nikki : hmm . jack : breathe it in . this is our time , nikki . this is our place . and no one can take this from us . [ camera shutter clicks ] [ camera shutter clicks ] victor : i told you the day would come that i would need a favor from you . well , the day is here . i want you to come back to genoa city . | phyllis gets mad at billy when he takes dina 's side after dina calls her a homewrecker and billy asks her not to say anything to dina because she is jack 's mother and will always take his side . billy decides to take phyllis to the gym to take out her aggressions and they end up having a competition with each other to see how many crunches they can do . phyllis beats billy in the competition and later they make love in the shower at the gym . victor is upset that nick told faith part of the truth about what happened to cause their rift with each other . abby encourages victor to go talk to nick and when victor follows abby 's advice things get worse because chelsea makes it clear to victor that if he tries to use connor in his battle with nick he will never see connor again . nick and victor declare all out war on each other and nobody is safe because nick is going to be honest with his children about victor which will turn his children against their grandfather . abby catches jack and nikki at the cabin and asks nikki not to do this to victor because he is very depressed and this will kill him . nikki feels badly for victor but jack assures her that they can handle victor together . victor calls nikki that she will pay a high price for turning faith against him . victor calls someone on the phone and tells the person on the phone that it is time that the person return the favor and that he needs the person to return to genoa city . ashley uses the key dina gave her to snoop in graham 's room and he catches her and threatens to call the police but ashley says that dina gave her the key . ashley tells ravi that before she found a receipt that shows that graham is keeping someone in an assisted living facility . ashley gets the phone number to the home and pretends to be a telemarketer and the lady on the other end of the phone tells her that her son pays all her bills so she will have to talk to him about new phone service . ashley suspects the woman she spoke to is graham 's mother and wonders why he lied to dina and everyone by saying both his parents had died . graham is upset with dina for letting ashley into his room and wonders why she allows ashley to treat her so badly . dina tells graham that it is her fault that ashley does n't trust men because ashley was heartbroken when she learned john abbott was n't her father . | <s>[INST] graham : what are you doing in my room ? ashley : you scared me . graham : should n't that be my reaction after stumbling upon an intruder in my private suite ? ashley : i did n't intrude . graham : break in ? did you break in ? huh ? you standing here is the very definition of being caught red - handed . ashley : honestly , i can completely explain this . graham : i 'm waiting . ashley : well , you startled me . just give me a second to catch my breath . graham : you have 10 seconds to start talking . then i 'm calling the police . phyllis : my hearing must be off , because you would n't possibly say that . dina : that you would betray this fine young man ? like you did betray his brother ? so , as far as your hearing goes , it 's perfect . phyllis : what is the word for `` betrayal `` in french ? you know , one that includes abandoning your husband and three children ? because in english , that 's ugly . and heartless . billy : okay . let 's just stand down here , okay ? dina : i 'm glad someone , at least , has some decency . billy : [ sighs deeply ] hey , hey , hey , okay . let 's just let this one go , okay ? she 's upset that she was n't there for jack . let 's not take it personally . and we have dinner plans , so ... let 's do that . are you coming ? phyllis : why did you just take her side over mine ? chelsea : you told faith the truth ? nick : i had to . i had to clean up the mess dad made . by going to see faith at camp , he twisted the story around and made me look like the bad guy . chelsea : when he 's the one who originally kicked you off the property in the first place . well , i mean , did you tell faith the truth truth , what led up to all that ? nick : not the specifics . there 's way worse i could 've told her . chelsea : what do you mean ? what 's victor done this time ? abby : dad ? dad , are you home ? victor : i 'm in here , sweetheart . abby : why are you sitting in the dark ? victor : [ sighs ] would you mind terribly if we rescheduled our dinner ? abby : no problem . victor : i prefer to be alone , okay ? abby : but that does n't mean that i 'm leaving . what 's going on ? dad ? victor : mm - hmm . [ sighs ] it 's your brother , nicholas . abby : did something happen to him ? victor : he went too far this time . abby : [ sighs ] i hate this . and i still do n't know what the big issue is between you two . and i know that i 'm not gon na get any answers tonight , but i 'm really sorry that you 're going through this . but , dad , you and nick , you 've been estranged and you 've reconciled before . [ sighs ] is there anything i can do to bring peace back to the family ? victor : [ sighs ] i wish i could say yes , you know ? but what he did cut too deep . additional sponsorship [ door opens ] nikki : oh ! it is magical ! it 's magical . jack : what is ? nikki : this place ! when i walk in the door , all of my troubles just melt away . jack : gee , and i thought i was the person putting the smile on your face . nikki : well , you do your part . jack : so , sit , relax , and i 'll start some dinner . nikki : no . no , you don't . i 'm cooking this time . what ? jack : nikki newman 's making dinner ? nikki : well , now , you seem to forget that before i became mrs . victor newman , lady of the manor , i was simply nikki reed , scrappy survivor . jack : you 've come a long way , nikki . nikki : yeah , it feels good , learning to do things for myself again . i like the process of it . but it can be a little challenging . jack : not exactly the words you want to hear from somebody who 's making dinner . nikki : oh , well , now , i promise not to use anything more complicated than a blender and a spoon . jack : [ chuckles ] why am i not reassured by that ? nikki : [ laughs ] you know what i 'm looking forward to the most ? jack : uh , proving that you 're a better cook than i am . nikki : oh , i did n't think of that . that 's a good one . that 's good , too . but i want to sit on that porch and watch the moon rise and hear the loons calling across the lake . jack : it is wonderful , is n't it ? nikki : this place has such a calming effect . jack : you are welcome to come here any time with or without me . nikki : oh , jack , thank you so much . i appreciate that . it 's great to have a place to go just to get away from life 's pressures and clear your head . i really think coming up here helped me get the strength to leave victor . jack : is your conviction wavering ? is that maybe why we 're here ? abby : dad , there 's nothing that you and nick ca n't get past . victor : he turned faith against me , you know . abby : no . no . nick would n't use his daughter that way , and faith ? victor : sweetheart -- abby : i mean , faith loves you . she would n't hurt you on purpose . victor : she called me a liar . said i could n't be trusted anymore . abby : faith said those words ? victor : mm - hmm . he must have told her quite a story . abby : but why ? victor : [ sighs ] abby : dad , talk to me . victor : noah had difficulties procuring a liquor license for his new place in ann arbor . abby : for the underground expansion ? victor : yeah . so i managed to get it for him , and i think his father resented that , you know ? and as punishment , he , um , told faith that i kicked him out of the tack house . abby : well , um , i 'm blown away , but ... you know , dad , it is the truth . victor : [ sighs ] nick : you know , it 's victor newman . there 's always some lie or scheme in the works . chelsea : oh . it just sounded like there was something specific . nick : i was just talking about some stuff that he pulled with sharon . chelsea : oh , okay . uh , well , then , i think that it 's a good call . you do n't want to pile too much on faith at once . nick : yeah , i took a big risk , you know , but faith is strong . she can handle it . i saw it firsthand . chelsea : when ? nick : down at the stables . you know , she , uh , she stood up to my dad . she told him what she thought . victor : he turned my granddaughter against me . he ruined our relationship . abby : i 'm sure that 's an exaggeration . victor : no , it isn't . you should have seen the disappointment in her eyes . nick : i tried to comfort her on the way home , but she was n't having it . she kept saying , you know , she was okay . chelsea : it 's gon na be hard for her only being able to go to the ranch when she 's with her mom , but we 'll make sure we do a lot of extra fun stuff with her . nick : you know , if she wants to see my dad when she 's with us , i 'm gon na let her . chelsea : you are ? nick : yeah , she loves spending time with him . and what kind of parent would i be if i took that away from her ? victor : i think he just resents the fact that i have a good relationship with my grandchildren . abby : well , did nick say that , or are you just making an assumption ? victor : well , i 'm assuming that . i did n't want to confront him about it because i would have lost my temper in front of faith . nick : at least now maybe she wo n't think that everything that comes out of his mouth is gospel . and i always stress to faith it 's important to be honest . she deserves the truth . abby : nick is n't vindictive . he would n't just do something like that for no reason , especially after you got him that liquor license . you did him a huge favor . [ sighs ] dad , go see him . get the truth . i know that you are hurt and you are upset , but if you do n't talk to him , things are only gon na get worse . victor : thank you for listening . ashley : i was not breaking and entering , graham . graham : then how did you get in ? bribe housekeeping ? pick the lock ? ashley : no . i used this . graham : if you stole that from dina , you 've committed a crime . ashley : i did n't steal it . she gave it to me . graham : dina wanted you to ransack my room ? ashley : i did n't ransack your room . do you even see one pillow out of place ? please . graham : then what were you doing ? ashley : i was picking something up for my mother . graham : what exactly ? ashley : documents . graham : that 's generic . ashley : well , she was n't that specific . she knew i was going to be here , graham , so she gave me this key and she asked me to pick up some papers , but the papers -- they were n't here . that 's it . no harm , no foul . how was paris ? graham : we 're pretending to care now ? ashley : trying to be civil . graham : did n't recognize it coming from you . ashley : ha . graham : where is dina ? ashley : she 's at the office , where i need to be . goodbye .

ashley : no , she doesn't . but , you know , thankfully i had permission to be in the room . and because she 's paying for the room , technically -- ravi : she 'd be the one to have to press charges . ashley : [ chuckles ] exactly . and i 'm 70 % sure she would n't , so ... okay , make that 65 % . ravi : hold on . dina 's paying for graham 's suite ? ashley : is n't that interesting ? so have you seen her ? ravi : uh , no , not recently . ashley : i 've got to talk to her to make sure our stories match up . ravi : about you being caught in graham 's room ? ashley : yes . ravi : you know , she claims that she has complete faith in the guy , but she gives you access to his room . what 's her endgame ? ashley : well , to get me off his back . ravi : 'cause he 's so trustworthy and loyal . ashley : exactly . she 's so sure i would n't find anything incriminating , and she was basically pushing me out the door . but it backfired . ravi : you found something ? ashley : yes , i sure did . i found a statement from a senior living facility in florida . apparently while dina is footing the bill for graham , graham 's footing the bill for somebody else , and it 's costing him a hell of a lot of money . dina : welcome back . how are things with your apartment ? graham : i do n't want to talk about that . dina : uh , you seem upset . graham : when i got back , ashley was coming out of my room . dina : oh , dear . graham : she said you wanted her to pick something up ? dina : oh , that 's not true . graham : she lied . big surprise . i wonder where she got a key . i 'll check with housekeeping . dina : i gave it to her . yes , i did . and i told her to snoop around to her heart 's content . graham : why on earth would you do that ? dina : for your own damn good ! jack : well , autumn is in the air . i saw leaves falling from the trees . nikki : hmm . we should come back when they start changing color . jack : or we could just stay and wait , you know , count them all one by one . nikki : hmm . i love that idea . if only we did n't have those responsibilities in the real world . jack : hey , i can always delegate . nikki : really ? you would be willing to trade in your designer suits for flannel shirts and jeans ? jack : for a chance to hang out with you , you bet i would . nikki : hmm . that is rather romantic . you could grow a beard and chop wood , and i could gather berries and sing along with the creatures of the forest . jack : wait , how about i sing and you chop the wood ? nikki : no , there 's a problem there . jack : what ? nikki : well , your singing 's not quite as good as your cooking . jack : then it 's decided . we will use this place as an enchanted getaway for both of us . nikki : wonderful . jack : so , what can i do to help ? nikki : um , actually , you can stay out of the kitchen , please . um , i know . you can build a fire . jack : done . abby ? abby : uncle jack . hi . jack : hi . abby : i was surprised when i saw your car . i guess we had the same idea . or we did n't have the same idea at all . nikki : hi , abby . it 's good to see you . abby : what are you two trying to do ? start the final newman / abbott war ? nick : [ sighs ] just checking with faith to make sure she 's okay . she insisted on having the sleepover at peyton 's tonight . chelsea : well , she 's probably trying to show you that she 's okay . have you noticed that -- [ cellphone chimes ] oh , that was fast . what 'd she say ? nick : she gave the `` i 'm okay `` emoji . chelsea : you do n't look okay . nick : i 'm just worried maybe she needed more time to process this , you know ? probably should have kept her home tonight . chelsea : faith is resilient . she 's going to be fine . besides , in the moment , you have a bigger problem to be thinking about . nick : what 's that ? chelsea : um , look around . this place is usually jumping by now . it 's a graveyard . nick : oh , look at that . i had n't noticed . chelsea : and where 's all your staff ? what ? did everybody call in sick ? nick : gave them the night off . chelsea : oh . because it 's so slow ? nick : no . i , uh , wanted to shut the place down tonight . chelsea : why ? nick : 'cause i wanted to spend some time with my girl . you know , i was trying to be romantic , so , surprise ! chelsea : seriously ? well , that 's silly . i mean , you 're the one that had the rough day . i should be doing something special for you . nick : oh , you 're gon na . chelsea : [ laughs ] is that so ? nick : yeah . but first , you know , let 's eat . i had luis make up all your favorites . chelsea : oh , appetizer heaven ? nick : yes . chelsea : you ... are amazing . hmm . i know what i 'll do . i will make us specialty cocktails to go with those appetizers . nick : all right . chelsea : yeah . we can call it the `` nick and chelsea 's empty club `` cocktails . two coming up right now . ravi : this -- this senior living center , it 's one of the swanky places ? ashley : $ 8,000 a month . is that swanky enough for you ? yeah , whoever graham is subsidizing is enjoying a private suite with all the amenities that go along with it . ravi : is there a name on the bill ? ashley : no , just his . ravi : it could be an aunt , an uncle , a distant cousin . ashley : could be , except he told me and dina that he did n't have any living relatives . that 's why he 's so close to her . ravi : an elderly friend , an old teacher ? ashley : anything 's possible . but $ 8,000 ? that 's a lot of money for somebody that 's not family . what if the whole oliver twist routine is just a big , fat lie ? ravi : what are you doing ? ashley : i am calling boca pointe active living residence . ravi : you 're just gon na call them ? ashley : well , yeah . why not ? i need some answers . ravi : what are you gon na say ? `` hi . my mom 's trusted companion is lying , but i ca n't prove it . can you help ? `` ashley : you 're right . i got to come up with something better than that , right , because graham ca n't know that i 'm investigating his past . i think i 've got it . ravi : okay . ashley : hello . could i please be connected with the bloodworth suite ? ravi : [ whispers ] what are you doing ? ashley : thank you . [ whispers ] they 're transferring me . it 's working . jack : we came here for peace and tranquility . nikki : yes , the exact opposite of war . abby : well , i came here to relax . so much for that idea . jack : abby , this does n't have to be awkward . abby : oh , but it is . if my dad finds out that you two are here together ... nikki : it wo n't be an issue . we 're separated . i 've moved off the ranch . abby : right , but that never sticks . you always go back to him eventually . nikki : well , this is a complex situation . abby : how so ? nikki : i really do n't want to talk about it . abby : with me ? because i 'm a newman in name only . i 'm not part of the charmed inner circle . jack : wait , wait , wait . where is this coming from ? abby : something is going on with the family , and it 's been going on since way before the concert . everyone has turned against my dad , and no one will tell me why . nikki : honey , it does n't concern you . abby : but he 's my dad , nikki , and he 's a wreck , so that makes it my concern . nikki : look , victor has the ability to make anybody see what he wants them to see . abby : well , what i saw was a distraught man , one who 's lost the support of his children . he 's afraid of losing his grandchildren . nikki : has something happened ? abby : faith laid into him . jack : odds are he brought that on himself . abby : not this time , uncle jack . nikki , please . please do n't hurt my dad , not now . he might not want to seem vulnerable , but he is . and if he finds out that you two are playing house together , it will break him . and then he will lash out , and that will not be good for anyone . i 'm gon na go home . this was obviously a bad idea . jack : drive safely . she got to you , did n't she ? you want to go home ? i 'll take you . victor : i want to speak to my son alone , all right ? chelsea : nick and i are raising your grandchildren together now . we 're a team . victor : does that mean you 're in on the decision to turn faith against me ? nick : that 's not what she said . i did no such thing . i told my daughter the truth . it was my decision . chelsea : and i 'll do the same with connor . i 've always felt that it was important for him to have a relationship with you . it gives my little boy a connection to his dad . it 's what adam would have wanted , but , victor , please , if you go behind my back , if you try to undermine my connection with my son , you wo n't see connor anymore . no one gets to use my son as a weapon in their personal battles . nick : [ sighs ] victor : so is this what it 's come to ? you 're turning everyone against me , poisoning my grandchildren against me ? nick : that 's your spin . victor : no , son . this one is on you . nick : [ scoffs ] no , you 're wrong . that 's not how this works . this time the blame is on you . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . phyllis : it was a very good idea coming here . billy : yeah , i have one every once in a while . you know , studies show that when people exercise , endorphins are released . and when they reach the opiate receptors in the limbic system , people experience happiness . phyllis : okay , thank you , dr . abbott . billy : [ chuckles ] not a doctor . just read a bunch of pamphlets when i was in the waiting room while my mom was in icu . the truth is , i thought it 'd be good for both of us to release a little tension , a little energy . phyllis : you know , you should have just dropped the science lesson and told me you like my cute outfit and wanted to see me work up a sweat . billy : that 's just a bonus , okay ? come on . let 's hit the showers . phyllis : nope ! i am still keyed up . i need to use this energy . i need to get my endorphins firing . billy : okay . let 's do some , uh , core work . what do you say ? phyllis : okay . got it . yeah . all right . i bet i can out - crunch you . billy : i 'm sure you can . phyllis : no , i 'm serious . i 'm willing to prove it . billy : so a contest . phyllis : yeah . you scared you gon na lose ? billy : starting now . phyllis : oh . billy : 27 , 28 ... phyllis : 38 . billy : 39 . phyllis : 49 . billy : 47 . phyllis : 60 . billy : 67 . phyllis : 100 . graham : encouraging ashley to poke around my room is supposed to be beneficial how ? dina : well , i wanted to end her suspicions once and for all . graham : has she been asking questions about me again ? dina : well , yes . but badgering her does n't help matters any . graham : how am i supposed to react ? she 's constantly cross - examining me and pumping you for dirt . dina : well , perhaps you should sit down with her and hash things out . graham : you 're being too cavalier about this . the woman violated my privacy . dina : and you 're being too defensive . why is that ? did she find something ? graham : there 's nothing to find . ashley 's paranoid . i have no secrets from her or anyone else . [ telephone rings ] mrs. bloodworth : hello ? ashley : [ southern accent ] well , hi , there . may i please speak with mrs . bloodworth ? mrs. bloodworth : this is she . who 's calling ? ashley : oh , well , this is cherry , and i 'm with the southeast florida communications , and i am calling to offer you 25 % off your long - distance phone bill . and do you know why ? because our company is brand new to the area of boca . so i was just wonderin ' , how about if you tell me how much you 're payin ' . mrs. bloodworth : my son pays all the bills . ashley : your son ? mrs. bloodworth : you should talk to him . ashley : well , righty right . i will do that . now , if i could just get a little bit more informa -- hello ? hello ? [ normal voice ] that oily graham bloodworth is a liar . victor : involving a child in an adult issue -- what 's wrong with you ? nick : you put faith in the middle of this . you went behind my back and went and saw her at her camp . victor : the fact that i went to see my granddaughter at camp , that is what set you off ? nick : you filled her head with lies and then asked her not to tell anyone about it . victor : i was talking to her about a life - changing experience that she was about to face . nick : one you caused . but you did n't tell her about it . see , you do n't get it . this is a 10-year - old little girl , and you put her in a terrible position . she had to cover for you to both her parents . victor : i did not tell her to lie ! nick : well , she did . you had no right to tell her about that move . victor : what ? were you gon na wait until she steps off the bus and then suddenly confront her with a change in her life that 's gon na be traumatizing to her ? nick : i do n't need the parenting lesson , all right ? you were out to sabotage the relationship i had with my daughter , to hate the move into the penthouse with chelsea before it even happened . victor : that is utter nonsense . i would never do that to my granddaughter . and i 'm sure she did n't implicate me when you finally dragged the truth out of her . nick : faith is n't the one who told me . it was mom . mom called the camp and found out that you went behind our backs . phyllis : show me what you got . show me what you got ! billy : okay . phyllis : yeah ! all right , that was adequate . billy : adequate , yeah . i think it 's probably better that we , uh , skip the trash talking . what do you say ? phyllis : uh - huh . did i hurt his feelings ? i 'm sorry . billy : no , no , no . my feelings never get hurt . i just think it 's better to motivate and not devastate , you know ? phyllis : really ? billy : for instance , you know , i 'm kind of shocked how much you can benchpress . phyllis : oh , okay . so where 's the motivation in that statement ? 'cause all i hear is a backhanded compliment . you see , i 'm gon na be in awe if you do n't hit like a girl . billy : [ chuckles ] phyllis : how 's that for motivation ? billy : oh , yeah ? you want motivation ? i 'll show you right now . phyllis : okay . billy : i can motivate to prove you wrong . phyllis : oh , let 's see it . [ laughs ] all right . all right . i 'm impressed . [ laughs ] good . whose face are you imagining ? billy : jack 's . phyllis : yeah . billy : one of many . phyllis : [ laughs ] very good . billy : you 're up . phyllis : okay . here it goes . billy : show me what you got . that 's a good , little form you got there , phyllis . phyllis : yeah . want me to teach you some moves ? billy : yeah . let me guess -- are dina 's teeth flying with every punch ? phyllis : oh , no . i forgot all about that old bat . billy : nice ! phyllis : yeah ! billy : attagirl . okay . phyllis : [ laughs ] billy : what do we got here ? two , four . phyllis : what are you doing ? billy : just counting up the points . after calculating and re - calculating ... phyllis : all right . come on . get on with it already . billy : i have it on good authority that this right here ... phyllis : uh - huh ? billy : this is a draw . phyllis : [ laughs ] it 's not going down that way , abbott . you know why ? 'cause this is not over . first person to the sauna naked wins . [ chuckles ] billy : boom . i win . phyllis : flag on the play . you 're not naked . billy : does n't matter . i 'm not gon na give it away for free . what if somebody walks in here like that ? i ai n't gon na -- phyllis : i win . billy : wow . phyllis : the bet was ... billy : forget the bet . i get to see you like this . that means i win . phyllis : according to the rules ... billy : forget the rules . we 're gon na go to the judges on this one . judges ? ruling stands . phyllis : then i think we will call it a tie . billy : oh , now you want to call it a tie ? phyllis : mm - hmm . nick : you got to stop throwing blame around . this is n't my fault , nor is it mom 's . victor : ohhh . poor boy . you 're so innocent , are n't you ? nick : compared to the stunts you 've pulled , we are . victor : you 've been looking for an excuse to keep faith away from me ! i guess now you 've got it ! nick : [ scoffs ] i 've had many reasons over the years to do that , but i never have . i 'm not gon na forbid faith to see you . victor : so you say now . nick : i 'm not . i keep telling myself i 'm keeping faith out of this conflict because it 's good for her . but it 's really to protect you . i 'm not doing that anymore . victor : is that how you want it , son ? you 've got it . from now on , there will be no protection of you , either . remember that . nick : [ sighs ] chelsea : safe to come out ? i take it that did n't go well . nick : like you said , you know , we made our feelings known . the lines have been drawn . there 's no going back . jack : for someone who did n't want to leave , you do n't seem to be having a very good time . nikki : i 'm sorry . i ca n't help it . i was looking for an escape , but i guess there is n't one . jack : do n't let my niece and her hysterics get to you . victor is working overtime . he 's laying it on thick , trying to hold on to any family member who 's still willing to stomach him . nikki : abby 's not the only one who does n't approve of our relationship . your mother has some choice words for me , as usual . jack : well , no girl is ever gon na be good enough for her little boy . nikki : oh , i know that . and you can be sure victor 's gon na come up with some creative way to get back at us for daring to enjoy each other 's company . jack : listen to me . abby and dina may know victor , but they do n't know us . we have agreed there 's no more hidden agenda here . we are not together to spite the man or to make him jealous . nikki : yeah , but it 's not gon na change his reaction . jack : then bring it on . dina : i apologize if i overstepped . but ashley should back off now that her curiosity 's been sated . graham : and if she does n't ? what will you give her next ? access to my bank accounts , my passport ? dina : no need to get snippy . graham : the woman treats me abominably , yet you go right on enabling her . ashley barely tolerates your presence , which hurts you . i 've seen it ! but she still gets the benefit of every doubt , even though she has no faith in your judgment and still has n't forgiven you for things that have happened decades ago ! so why are you so desperate for her approval ? dina : because i owe her . graham : for what ? ending a marriage that was wrong from the start ? living your life ? dina : i 'm the reason she ca n't trust anyone . graham : how 's that your fault ? dina : [ voice breaking ] because ... i lied to her for years . for years . and when she finally found out the truth , it nearly destroyed her . graham : what truth ? dina : [ sobbing ] john abbott was n't her father . phyllis : [ chuckles ] okay , that was , like , so much better than a romantic dinner . billy : yeah , it was . phyllis : no , not just that . the whole night . billy : you know , what made it perfect , besides not being caught during our awards ceremony , we did n't mention work . phyllis : [ sighs ] billy : once . phyllis : i know . you know why ? because blocking that stuff out makes life better when we focus on one another , you know . but unfortunately , tomorrow we 're gon na have to start punching the clocks . billy : whatever . in a few hours . phyllis : really ? are you suggesting that we go back into the gym and do some more crunches ? because i 'm down with that . billy : no , i 'm not suggesting that at all . phyllis : really ? you think the elliptical , the treadmill , the speed bag ? billy : nope . phyllis : then what is it that you want ? billy : push our luck . see if we can avoid getting caught again . ashley : i 'm certain that woman on the phone was graham 's mother . ravi : did she mention him by name ? ashley : no ! no , she did n't , but she said her son pays all her bills . and it was graham 's name on the statement to the facility . ravi : okay . so what if you 're right ? i mean , it 's not a crime for a son to pay his mother 's bills . ashley : ravi , obviously not , but why is he lying ? why did he tell dina and me that both of his parents are dead ? why is he saying he has no living relatives when clearly he does ? nikki : this is nikki . i 'm not around right now . please leave a message and i 'll call you back . victor : you have made your loyalties clear . damaging my relationship with my granddaughter faith comes at a cost . jack : we can handle victor . we have before . he will never dictate my life again . i thought you felt the same way . nikki : i do . jack : then to hell with what he or anyone else thinks . nikki : what does this mean for us ? jack : i do n't know . but look where we are right now . nikki : hmm . jack : breathe it in . this is our time , nikki . this is our place . and no one can take this from us .

[ scene_break ] henry : man , the french really knew what they were doing when they invented charlemagne champagne . josiah , do the vulcan 's marry for love ? josiah : everyone marries for love , henry . henry : no , that 's not true . the vulcan 's have pon farr . but i think the whole romantic love thing -- that 's just a western invention , and it 's a really recent one at that . i mean , there 's a lot of other countries . there 's india , for example . india -- there , they still have arranged marriages . the bridge and the groom -- they do n't even meet each other till the wedding night . but then they -- they grow to learn about one another and then finally to love one another . josiah : got to wonder how much passion can really be there . henry : passion 's overrated . you 're right . it 's not . bob : at this rate , uh , henry 's not gon na be able to stand up for the ceremony . paul : can you keep an eye on him , keep him away from the champagne ? i got to step out for a little bit . bob : where are you going ? paul : i 'm gon na go look for emily . kim : you still have n't heard from her ? paul : no . how bad did things get with my mom ? kim : well , not too bad . i -- i think the only thing that got bruised really was their egos and emily 's dress . paul : i 'll be back as soon as i can . [ emily sighs ] paul : i was starting to worry about you . emily : me ? paul : yeah , you . emily : why ? paul : well , i heard you had a little run - in with my mom . emily : she assaulted me , paul . she shoved me on purpose . she ripped my dress and ruined it . i loved that dress . paul : i love this dress . you 're okay , right ? emily : does `` in one piece and mad as hell `` constitute `` all right `` ? paul : maybe you should just stay away from my mom for just a little bit . emily : oh -- more like forever . paul : well , she 's not here yet . maybe she wo n't show up here . emily : she wo n't . no , she wo n't , i 'm sure , because there is no way that woman would let herself be humiliated in public again . paul : i 'm gon na call and make sure she 's okay . emily : no , do n't . just put that away . josiah : so you love this woman , barbara , but you 're still going to marry vienna ? henry : no . i love -- i love vienna , too . i -- i love -- wait till you see her . what 's not to love ? we were head over heels for each other , and then -- and then we lost the baby , and then it pulled us apart . and then she left , and i was crushed . josiah : which is when barbara came in the picture ? henry : yes . we had this very intense thing , barbara and i . then we broke up , too . and then she wanted to reconnect , and we did reconnect . and then vienna just came right back into town , right out of the blue , wanted to get back together with me . i did n't want to be pulled into that whole thing , but there 's some wonderful things about vienna , too , that you can really love . and then , before you know it , look out . boom -- baby on board . josiah : that 's one time - space conundrum . henry : kobayashi maru is what that -- vienna . vienna : henry -- henry : what are you doing here ? you -- you said you did n't want to see me before the ceremony . you said that was bad luck . vienna : no . this could n't wait . i have something very important to tell you . [ scene_break ] katie : i ran out of here so fast before because right before you got here , barbara called vienna . she knows everything . chris : and if barbara knows there 's no baby -- katie : and barbara said if vienna did n't tell henry , then she would , so vienna ran out of here to find henry and tell him everything . i ran out of here to find barbara and hold her back so vienna could do her thing . chris : no wonder you were in such a hurry when i got here . katie : i have been running all over town looking for barbara like a chicken with my head cut off . chris : okay , okay , okay . breathe easy . katie : and then all of a sudden , it hits me . what am i doing ? this is so , so wrong . why do i care so much about what happens between henry and vienna ? and it just me . i care so much about their love life because i do n't have one of my own . and do n't say you told me so , because i know you 've been telling me that for like weeks . all right , you can tell me you told me so , but only 10 times , or i 'll have to hit you . chris : [ laughs ] thank you for the heads - up . katie : before vienna came back to town , i was doing okay , but -- [ voice breaking ] seeing her face again just reminded me that something 's missing . chris : you mean someone . katie : yeah . it just brought up so much stuff . and i thought i was coping . i mean , i was doing pretty well . i did good at your parents ' wedding . chris : yeah , but it 's different with henry and vienna , because you guys -- you were so close when brad was alive . katie : the four musketeers . [ laughs ] oh , we had so many plans . we were gon na have kids , and they 'd play together and grow up together . we would be grandparents together . but now brad 's gone , and vienna 's lying to henry about some baby that does n't exist so he 'll marry her , and he 's in love with barbara . and i just want -- chris : what ? [ voice breaking ] katie : i just want my old life back -- with brad . i 'm sorry . chris : what are you apologizing for ? katie : oh , for constantly bringing up brad , i mean , especially given what 's been going on between us . chris : katie , look , it 's -- katie : i 'm a mess . i am such a mess . chris : yes . yes , you are . how did you get so dirty ? katie : do you want me to embarrass myself even further ? chris : absolutely . katie : okay , well , when i had my epiphany about henry and vienna , i went to brad 's grave , and i just kind of poured it all out to him , and i started sobbing like a baby . before i knew it , it was like -- i do n't know , it was as bad as the day i lost him . chris : do you know why ? katie : because the truth finally hit me . i ca n't put henry and vienna back together now any more than i could put brad and me back together . what they had is gone , and brad is gone , forever . [ scene_break ] henry : what is it , my angel ? vienna : are you all right , henry ? henry : yes , i 'm fine . vienna : you seem a little unsteady on your feet . henry : yeah . i -- i had a glass of charlemagne . it went right to my head . i -- i 'm fine . you look beautiful . you look -- [ gasps ] look . you 're showing . you 're showing . and all at once , just like you said you would . vienna : i do n't even know where to begin , henry . emily : what 's going on ? paul : beats me . henry : what is it ? are you all right ? vienna : all right ? i 've never been better ! that -- that 's what i came here to tell you . i wanted to tell you . henry : you -- you wanted to tell me that you risked bad luck just to come here and tell me that ? vienna : no , no , no . i do n't believe in luck , bad or otherwise . henry : you did last night . vienna : no . i believe that we all create our own destinies , and my destiny is -- is today i 'm gon na marry you and become mrs. henry coleman once and for all and forever . [ scene_break ] katie : i should call vienna and find out how it went with henry when she told him the truth . chris : if she told him . katie : of course she did . what choice did she have ? let barbara do it and paint it in the worst possible light ? chris : all i know is i just got back from al 's . henry was there , and he was drinking like a fish . katie : you think he already knows ? chris : no . i think he 's drinking 'cause of nerves , not because he just found out there 's a nonexistent baby . katie : are you sure ? chris : positive . katie : so vienna did n't tell him ? chris : as of 20 minutes ago , no . but barbara had n't either , which is really weird . katie : why is that ? chris : because earlier , you said that barbara was determined to track henry down . katie : well , maybe she realized it 's not her place . chris : uh , this is barbara we 're talking about . katie : okay , so maybe she was just detained . chris : well , if that 's the case , then she could still go over to the wedding and cause trouble . katie : you 're right . we 've got to get over there . whatever happens , henry 's gon na need me . chris : okay , um , katie -- katie : what ? chris : unless grime is the latest fashion -- katie : i 've got to change . chris : yeah , go change . i 'll get the car , bring it around . katie : okay , okay .

'cause you seem -- you know , you seem a little concerned about doing this on the spur of the moment . would you rather do this in a bigger place ? would you rather do it in a church ? i mean , if you 'd like to postpone this -- vienna : no . listen to me , henry . listen to me good . i 've never been more sure about anything in my entire life . i want to marry you now -- right now . paul : they 'd better get a move on before my mother shows up . emily : she wo n't . woman 's intuition . bob : okay , henry . there you go . chris : dad , what 's the , uh , status report ? bob : everything 's moving forward as planned . katie : excuse me . thank you , ladies , for filling in . vienna : i told them you had an errand to run . look , kim gave me something with blue , and emily gave me something old . emily : ooh . you need something borrowed . katie : oh , hey . why do n't you borrow my bracelet ? it matches what you 're wearing perfectly . vienna : are you sure ? katie : it would make me so happy for you to wear it . here . you just get it off . [ whispering ] did you tell henry the truth ? vienna : i did what i had to do . katie : what does that mean ? vienna : what do you think it means , katie ? katie : i do n't know . that 's why i 'm asking you . paul : ladies , the groom is ready . vienna : emily , can you help me with the veil ? chris : so , did vienna tell henry the truth ? katie : she must have . chris : yeah . i do n't think she would have risked barbara bursting in here , telling everybody , hmm ? i just ca n't believe henry would actually go through with it although he knows that vienna 's not pregnant . katie : maybe henry was drunk when she told him . then it probably would n't fully register , right ? chris : mm -- katie : right . you 'd have to be completely comatose for that not to register . chris : i guess henry loves vienna more than we thought . so if barbara actually showed up , it would n't make any difference anyway . paul : places , please . places . okay . showtime . [ henry sighs ] josiah : henry , are we waiting for someone ? vienna : henry ? henry : you look beautiful , liebchen . vienna : so do you . josiah : dearly beloved , we are gathered here today , not in the sight of god per se , but in the force field of the magnificent , life - affirming energy of the universe to bring together this man and this woman in the bonds of holy matrimony . each of you is present at this wonderful occasion because of your importance in this couple 's lives , to witness and celebrate the commitment they are about to make to each other -- a commitment that is not to be entered into lightly or with any misgivings . which is why before we precede , there is one question i must ask . does anyone here know a reason why these two should not be married today ? if so , speak now or forever hold your peace . [ scene_break ] next week on `` as the world turns `` -- barbara : i have information that would blow henry 's shotgun wedding out of the water . which means that there 's only one person who could have done this to me -- vienna . josiah : i now pronounce you husband and wife . dusty : what 's jack 's plan ? janet : he wants to fix up the cabin for me . dusty : in other words , this is n't just a stop along the way . this is gon na be your new home . carly : you ca n't live apart from me , live your life without me , start nesting with janet , and expect me to wait patiently with -- with a candle burning in the window . katie : what do you want , chris ? chris : i want you to give me a reason to stay . lily : this is my company , not hers . i mean , look , my mother is determined to be involved in every aspect of my life whether i like it or not . craig : do n't worry about her . i 'll take care of lucinda . my point is , if you 're going head - to - head with lucinda walsh , you need me . blackthorn : sounds like its mutual . paul : where are your mommy and daddy ? will : right here . paul : wow . hey ! | henry feels he must do the right thing and marry vienna because she is carrying his child but he is very nervous and decides to drink until his nerves go away . henry admits to paul that he is in love with barbara and paul advises henry not to marry vienna and tells him he can still be a good father to his child . henry feels he owes vienna this marriage because of all the pain she suffered when she lost their first child . paul manages to get henry to al 's diner for the wedding where henry drinks champagne like a fish determined to go through with the wedding . | <s>[INST] henry : speaking of walking , her legs are so -- but her voice -- she 's got a beautiful voice . paul : henry , henry -- henry : big , brown eyes . and let me say on a personal note that she is the most unabashed , uninhibited , passionate lover -- paul : henry ! henry : what , what ? paul : i did n't ask for a sonnet . if you do have feelings for my mother , then maybe you should reconsider walking down the aisle and committing the rest of your life to someone else . henry : you want to know the truth ? uh , the truth , paul , is that -- i need a drink , a big one . [ scene_break ] vienna : have you been hitting the booze early today , barbara ? because you 're talking like a crazy person . barbara : oh , we 'll see how crazy henry thinks i am when i tell him that i have proof that you 're not pregnant . vienna : proof ? and what is your so - called proof ? barbara : vienna , i know you are wearing padding under your clothing to look like you have a baby bump . now , it was bad enough that you cheated on henry with casey , but then you lied to him about being pregnant with his child . and then you played at his emotions and his guilt about the child that you had together that you lost . you ought to be ashamed of yourself . vienna : you 're the one who should be ashamed , barbara , for chasing after a man half your age . you know , you 're -- you 're the laughing stock of this town . i feel sorry for you . i really do . barbara : you so do not deserve this , but because i am such a nice person , i am going to do you a special favor . vienna : you know what ? i 'm hanging up now . barbara : if you leave town now and you leave henry at the altar , i will never tell him about the despicable way you have lied to him . on the other hand , if you show up at al 's diner , i will blow this sham of a wedding sky - high . vienna : you 're such an evil woman . whatever henry saw in you , i -- it 's beyond me . barbara : did you or did you not hear me , vienna ? vienna : yes , i heard your threats and your truly bizarre accusations . and if you want to -- if you want to blab such nonsense to -- to henry , go ahead and be my guest . barbara : really ? vienna : yes , because you are the one who is gon na end up looking foolish , because henry will never believe such rubbish . barbara : after he sees what i have to show him , i doubt it . but there 's only one way to find out . vienna : what do you mean ? barbara : you are such a smart cookie . figure it out . katie : vienna ? vienna : barbara knows there 's no baby . katie : how ? vienna : i do n't know how , but she said she has proof and -- and that she will tell henry unless i leave town for good . katie : okay , i know this seems awful , but maybe it is a blessing in disguise . you were debating whether to tell henry the truth anyway . vienna : no . you were debating . i wanted to leave henry completely in the dark . oh , my god . what am i gon na do ? katie : you are gon na do what you have to do if you ever want henry to forgive you . do what barbara says . just go find him and tell him everything . vienna : everything ? everything ? he 's gon na hate me . katie : no , he wo n't . you just tell him you lied only because you love him with everything in your heart and because you do one day want to have his child . vienna : what if i go and tell henry and then barbara has already told him ? katie : well , if she already told him , then all the more reason you need to get to him and tell him your side of it so you can undo the damage . vienna : oh , my god . you make it sound so easy . katie : it is easy . listen , listen . if you ever want henry to forgive you , you have to do the right thing now , okay ? go do the right thing . you have no other choice ! vienna : what if barbara already -- katie : do n't worry about barbara . i 'll take care of her . go . vienna : oh , my god . oh , my god . oh .

[ scene_break ] henry : man , the french really knew what they were doing when they invented charlemagne champagne . josiah , do the vulcan 's marry for love ? josiah : everyone marries for love , henry . henry : no , that 's not true . the vulcan 's have pon farr . but i think the whole romantic love thing -- that 's just a western invention , and it 's a really recent one at that . i mean , there 's a lot of other countries . there 's india , for example . india -- there , they still have arranged marriages . the bridge and the groom -- they do n't even meet each other till the wedding night . but then they -- they grow to learn about one another and then finally to love one another . josiah : got to wonder how much passion can really be there . henry : passion 's overrated . you 're right . it 's not . bob : at this rate , uh , henry 's not gon na be able to stand up for the ceremony . paul : can you keep an eye on him , keep him away from the champagne ? i got to step out for a little bit . bob : where are you going ? paul : i 'm gon na go look for emily . kim : you still have n't heard from her ? paul : no . how bad did things get with my mom ? kim : well , not too bad . i -- i think the only thing that got bruised really was their egos and emily 's dress . paul : i 'll be back as soon as i can . [ emily sighs ] paul : i was starting to worry about you . emily : me ? paul : yeah , you . emily : why ? paul : well , i heard you had a little run - in with my mom . emily : she assaulted me , paul . she shoved me on purpose . she ripped my dress and ruined it . i loved that dress . paul : i love this dress . you 're okay , right ? emily : does `` in one piece and mad as hell `` constitute `` all right `` ? paul : maybe you should just stay away from my mom for just a little bit . emily : oh -- more like forever . paul : well , she 's not here yet . maybe she wo n't show up here . emily : she wo n't . no , she wo n't , i 'm sure , because there is no way that woman would let herself be humiliated in public again . paul : i 'm gon na call and make sure she 's okay . emily : no , do n't . just put that away . josiah : so you love this woman , barbara , but you 're still going to marry vienna ? henry : no . i love -- i love vienna , too . i -- i love -- wait till you see her . what 's not to love ? we were head over heels for each other , and then -- and then we lost the baby , and then it pulled us apart . and then she left , and i was crushed . josiah : which is when barbara came in the picture ? henry : yes . we had this very intense thing , barbara and i . then we broke up , too . and then she wanted to reconnect , and we did reconnect . and then vienna just came right back into town , right out of the blue , wanted to get back together with me . i did n't want to be pulled into that whole thing , but there 's some wonderful things about vienna , too , that you can really love . and then , before you know it , look out . boom -- baby on board . josiah : that 's one time - space conundrum . henry : kobayashi maru is what that -- vienna . vienna : henry -- henry : what are you doing here ? you -- you said you did n't want to see me before the ceremony . you said that was bad luck . vienna : no . this could n't wait . i have something very important to tell you . [ scene_break ] katie : i ran out of here so fast before because right before you got here , barbara called vienna . she knows everything . chris : and if barbara knows there 's no baby -- katie : and barbara said if vienna did n't tell henry , then she would , so vienna ran out of here to find henry and tell him everything . i ran out of here to find barbara and hold her back so vienna could do her thing . chris : no wonder you were in such a hurry when i got here . katie : i have been running all over town looking for barbara like a chicken with my head cut off . chris : okay , okay , okay . breathe easy . katie : and then all of a sudden , it hits me . what am i doing ? this is so , so wrong . why do i care so much about what happens between henry and vienna ? and it just me . i care so much about their love life because i do n't have one of my own . and do n't say you told me so , because i know you 've been telling me that for like weeks . all right , you can tell me you told me so , but only 10 times , or i 'll have to hit you . chris : [ laughs ] thank you for the heads - up . katie : before vienna came back to town , i was doing okay , but -- [ voice breaking ] seeing her face again just reminded me that something 's missing . chris : you mean someone . katie : yeah . it just brought up so much stuff . and i thought i was coping . i mean , i was doing pretty well . i did good at your parents ' wedding . chris : yeah , but it 's different with henry and vienna , because you guys -- you were so close when brad was alive . katie : the four musketeers . [ laughs ] oh , we had so many plans . we were gon na have kids , and they 'd play together and grow up together . we would be grandparents together . but now brad 's gone , and vienna 's lying to henry about some baby that does n't exist so he 'll marry her , and he 's in love with barbara . and i just want -- chris : what ? [ voice breaking ] katie : i just want my old life back -- with brad . i 'm sorry . chris : what are you apologizing for ? katie : oh , for constantly bringing up brad , i mean , especially given what 's been going on between us . chris : katie , look , it 's -- katie : i 'm a mess . i am such a mess . chris : yes . yes , you are . how did you get so dirty ? katie : do you want me to embarrass myself even further ? chris : absolutely . katie : okay , well , when i had my epiphany about henry and vienna , i went to brad 's grave , and i just kind of poured it all out to him , and i started sobbing like a baby . before i knew it , it was like -- i do n't know , it was as bad as the day i lost him . chris : do you know why ? katie : because the truth finally hit me . i ca n't put henry and vienna back together now any more than i could put brad and me back together . what they had is gone , and brad is gone , forever . [ scene_break ] henry : what is it , my angel ? vienna : are you all right , henry ? henry : yes , i 'm fine . vienna : you seem a little unsteady on your feet . henry : yeah . i -- i had a glass of charlemagne . it went right to my head . i -- i 'm fine . you look beautiful . you look -- [ gasps ] look . you 're showing . you 're showing . and all at once , just like you said you would . vienna : i do n't even know where to begin , henry . emily : what 's going on ? paul : beats me . henry : what is it ? are you all right ? vienna : all right ? i 've never been better ! that -- that 's what i came here to tell you . i wanted to tell you . henry : you -- you wanted to tell me that you risked bad luck just to come here and tell me that ? vienna : no , no , no . i do n't believe in luck , bad or otherwise . henry : you did last night . vienna : no . i believe that we all create our own destinies , and my destiny is -- is today i 'm gon na marry you and become mrs. henry coleman once and for all and forever . [ scene_break ] katie : i should call vienna and find out how it went with henry when she told him the truth . chris : if she told him . katie : of course she did . what choice did she have ? let barbara do it and paint it in the worst possible light ? chris : all i know is i just got back from al 's . henry was there , and he was drinking like a fish . katie : you think he already knows ? chris : no . i think he 's drinking 'cause of nerves , not because he just found out there 's a nonexistent baby . katie : are you sure ? chris : positive . katie : so vienna did n't tell him ? chris : as of 20 minutes ago , no . but barbara had n't either , which is really weird . katie : why is that ? chris : because earlier , you said that barbara was determined to track henry down . katie : well , maybe she realized it 's not her place . chris : uh , this is barbara we 're talking about . katie : okay , so maybe she was just detained . chris : well , if that 's the case , then she could still go over to the wedding and cause trouble . katie : you 're right . we 've got to get over there . whatever happens , henry 's gon na need me . chris : okay , um , katie -- katie : what ? chris : unless grime is the latest fashion -- katie : i 've got to change . chris : yeah , go change . i 'll get the car , bring it around . katie : okay , okay .

'cause you seem -- you know , you seem a little concerned about doing this on the spur of the moment . would you rather do this in a bigger place ? would you rather do it in a church ? i mean , if you 'd like to postpone this -- vienna : no . listen to me , henry . listen to me good . i 've never been more sure about anything in my entire life . i want to marry you now -- right now . paul : they 'd better get a move on before my mother shows up . emily : she wo n't . woman 's intuition . bob : okay , henry . there you go . chris : dad , what 's the , uh , status report ? bob : everything 's moving forward as planned . katie : excuse me . thank you , ladies , for filling in . vienna : i told them you had an errand to run . look , kim gave me something with blue , and emily gave me something old . emily : ooh . you need something borrowed . katie : oh , hey . why do n't you borrow my bracelet ? it matches what you 're wearing perfectly . vienna : are you sure ? katie : it would make me so happy for you to wear it . here . you just get it off . [ whispering ] did you tell henry the truth ? vienna : i did what i had to do . katie : what does that mean ? vienna : what do you think it means , katie ? katie : i do n't know . that 's why i 'm asking you . paul : ladies , the groom is ready . vienna : emily , can you help me with the veil ? chris : so , did vienna tell henry the truth ? katie : she must have . chris : yeah . i do n't think she would have risked barbara bursting in here , telling everybody , hmm ? i just ca n't believe henry would actually go through with it although he knows that vienna 's not pregnant . katie : maybe henry was drunk when she told him . then it probably would n't fully register , right ? chris : mm -- katie : right . you 'd have to be completely comatose for that not to register . chris : i guess henry loves vienna more than we thought . so if barbara actually showed up , it would n't make any difference anyway . paul : places , please . places . okay . showtime .

stitch : max , where are you ? ! max ! i told you to stay away from my son , and now he 's out there all alone . if anything happens to him -- dylan : nothing 's gon na happen . i put out an alert . we 're gon na find him . stitch : yeah , you better ! abby : i wish i was wrong about max . the thought that he could be filled with so much rage that he would want to hurt me , hurt the baby , start a fire to cover his tracks ? ashley : if you keep talking like that -- abby : oh , what , what ? i should just keep pretending like it is n't happening like everyone else is doing ? ashley : what i 'm trying to say is you 're making it sound like it 's a fact without taking ben 's feelings into consideration . that 's just gon na create more distance between the two of you . that 's what i 'm afraid of . abby : i ca n't save my marriage by pretending max is n't in trouble . max is broken . and his own father ca n't even see it . do you think that i want to be the one to force my husband to admit that his son is dangerous ? ashley : of course not . i know you do n't want that , honey . abby : when ben hears the evidence , when he finds out that our baby is gone because of his own son , it will destroy him . and i wo n't be able to help him . ashley : why do you say that ? abby : because ben wo n't let me . mom , we 're already falling apart , and , in the end , he will feel forced to choose between his son and our marriage , and ... really , there 's -- there 's no choice at all . dr. neville : master max . what are you doing here ? lily : if you could have seen dylan 's face when the forensic results came in ... it ties max to the fire . he now has evidence against his best friend 's son . devon : geez . so literally everything abby 's been saying is true 'cause max made her fall and then set the fire to cover it up . lily : how do you even process that ? she lost the baby , but it was n't an accident . devon : it 's horrible . abby is -- she 's strong . she 's a lot stronger than people give her credit . lily : i mean , she tried to warn everyone about max , and nobody would listen , especially stitch . it 's , like , how does your relationship survive that ? devon : yeah , when you feel like your partner is n't hearing you or , worse , does n't want to hear you . it 's a bad place to be . hilary : hey . why does it look like a funeral over here ? we should actually be popping champagne corks . lily : why ? what happened ? hilary : well , jack loved my idea for getting press for the foundation and the medical research at the same time . two birds , one shiny stone named hilary . lily : oh . so we 're talking about stones ? hilary : yeah , i think it really helped that neil and i were on the same page , you know ? devon : i never got a chance to thank you for backing hilary and urging jack to keep her on the board . i appreciate it . neil : wait , what did you say ? backing ? devon : yeah . neil : son , your wife gave me no choice . she blackmailed me , just like she blackmailed ashley . cane : so you were the one ... devon : i have no doubt that you were very convincing . cane : i know what i heard . i heard what she said . neil : [ hushed ] shut up . they 're right over there . listen to me . you ca n't do this . you ca n't do this , cane . cane : get out of my way . neil : i will tell you everything , all right ? i promise . all of it . not here . not now . you owe me that much . hi . [ sighs ] cane : all right . you want to explain to me ? do it . go ahead . 'cause i want to hear how you can rationalize kidnapping your son 's wife and letting the world think that she was dead . neil : no , no , no , no , no . that was never what i wanted . cane : oh , so this is what hilary wanted ? what ? she kidnapped herself and locked herself in the boathouse while she was in a coma ? neil : no , just hear me out , all right ? it was after devon and hilary 's wedding . i was so angry , i could n't even see straight . i was consumed to the point where all i wanted was to pay them back . i wanted to get revenge . cane : so that speech that you made at the wedding about forgiveness , that was all a smokescreen ? neil : no , it was not . cane : did you know what you were gon na do to hilary ? neil : it was n't like that . it was all about breaking them up , breaking their hearts . that 's all . and i followed them on their honeymoon and i -- cane : do you realize how deranged this sounds ? neil : yes , i do ! cane : okay . neil : and i followed them and i got her alone , and i showed her that videotape of devon 's bachelor party and that prostitute . cane : okay , then you pushed her off the cliff . neil : i did n't do that ! she fell all on her own ! do you understand ? i got her out of that water . i saved her life ! cane : oh , so you 're a hero ? neil : no ! cane : you 're a hero ? neil : i saved her ! she would have drowned if it was n't for me . no one would have believed it was an accident , so what did i do , cane ? i flew her to genoa city . i got her in that boathouse , and i waited for her to wake up until she could tell the entire world everything ! cane : so you 're the one who hired dr . neville . he said he did n't know who paid him , but it was you , was n't it ? the two of you were in this together . neil : he -- he -- we -- we both wanted her to recover . cane : but why would you want her to recover if you wanted revenge , huh ? she would have died , your son would have gone to jail . that 's what you wanted . neil : i did n't want that . i did n't want that for either of them . i was totally out of control ! it was like some bender without the alcohol . just rage , man ! all i wanted was for her to get better and to get back with devon . and they did . they got back together . they made it through . their marriage and their life right now is what they wanted all along . cane : so , what ? you 're off the hook ? is that what you tell yourself when you wake up in the morning ? you 're off the hook ? hilary : honestly , it makes sense that jack , neil , and i would work well together . we were a well - oiled machine at jabot way back when . and those two , they understand business , unlike ashley and neville . they do n't understand anything outside of a lab . lily : actually , uh , ashley is a very experienced businesswoman . i think people associate her more with that than with her work as a chemist . hilary : well , i 'm just speculating here , but i think that she 's used to being the only powerful woman in the room . but hey , look at me . she better get used to it . lily : well , you did also blackmail her , so there could be a personal element . i 'm -- i 'm just speculating . hilary : ashley was ill . i encouraged her to step back and look after herself . if people insist on misunderstanding that , that 's on them , not on me . devon understands . he knows exactly where my heart is . right ? devon : i am understanding more and more every day . dylan : patrol cars are in the area . i 'm gon na give them a heads up , then i 'm gon na go out on foot . and if i find anything , i 'll call you . stitch : okay , you cover east of jabot . i 'll go the other way towards memorial . dylan : okay , wait , hold on . i think -- i think you should stay here . stitch : i 'm not staying here ! my son 's out there ! dylan : okay , max could come back looking for you . i think you should be here . stitch : all right , fine . go . now . find my kid . dr. neville : come here , max . does anyone know that you 're here ? because you 're afraid you 're in trouble ? that 's okay . you do n't have to answer that . you -- you came here to -- to see me ? to see ashley ? max : but abby 's in there . she hates me . dr. neville : no , no , no , no , no . no , no . stay . no one hates you . i promise you . you 're amongst friends . and , uh , i tell you what . you -- you tell me everything and -- and i 'll figure out how to fix it . ashley : you and ben have n't even had a chance to be a real married couple because max moved in with you right after your wedding day , honey . there 's been nothing but chaos since then . but you know how much ben loves you , honey . he adores you . abby : yeah , but that love is nothing compared to what a parent feels for their child . i mean , that 's what everyone keeps telling poor , childless me . ashley : look , i 'm sorry i said that , because a marriage has its own bond . and if a couple truly loves each other and they 're strong and they 're mature , then they 'll be there for each other , just the way you 're gon na be there for ben , 'cause i know you 're not gon na let him go through this alone . right ? dr. neville : [ clears throat ] uh , apologies , miss abby . uh , ashley , i 'm afraid i need to speak to you . it 's important . ashley : it 's not a very good time . dr. neville : no , it 's a recent development which most definitely requires your attention . abby : you know what ? it 's fine . i have somewhere to be . ashley : if you need me , honey ... abby : i know . thank you . ashley : bye . abby : bye . ashley : what 's going on ? this is really not a good -- max : ashley ! ashley : max ! honey ! [ door closes ] ashley : what 's going on ? dr. neville : max is in some trouble . i 'm afraid he has some concerns that dr . rayburn will be angry with him . and as per his request , no one else knows he 's here because the only one he 'll speak to is you . ashley : did you run away ? okay , what happened ? what 's going on ? max : dylan came for me . he wants to take me to jail . ashley : oh , honey , i 'm sure it 's nothing that bad . max : he thinks i did something terrible . ashley : does this have to do with the baby shower and the fire that happened ? max : it 's not like they 're saying . ashley : okay , well , why do n't you tell me what happened ? and just start with the baby shower . okay , look . do you trust me ? okay , just tell me the truth in your own words . max : i made abby trip on the stairs . dylan : three - block radius . no sign of max . we 're expanding the perimeter . any word from him ? stitch : no calls , no sign of him . this is n't like the last time he ran . god knows max could be anywhere by now . abby : wait . max is missing ? stitch : yeah . thanks to detective mcavoy scaring the hell out of him here . dylan : [ sighs ] abby : how ? what happened ? dylan : max had the master key , and it was used to enter the server room right before the fire . abby : oh , my god . dylan : max heard me , uh , telling stitch about the evidence that places max in the room . stitch : yeah , and then he took off through the window , and now we 're wasting time talking about it instead of finding a helpless , little kid ! abby : all right , well , let me help . tell me where to go . stitch : do n't pretend like you suddenly care about my son . ashley : you made abby fall ? max : i put something on the stairs . ashley : so that she would trip ? max : but not to get hurt ! just like an internet video . she would trip , she would fall , people would laugh , she 'd be embarrassed , and that 's it ! ashley : oh , right . kind of like , um , a prank . max : yeah . and that 's all ! i swear ! i mean , now people are thinking i was jealous of the baby . ashley : but you were n't jealous at all , were you ? so , everything happened so fast that it probably scared you , right , that nobody would believe you ? it 's good that you told me the truth , honey . and -- and , um , now that you have , uh , it 's -- it 's -- it 's gon na be okay . i promise . [ cell phone rings ] hilary : uh ... oh . hi . this is hilary . yes . good . how are you ? lily : the look in your eyes . devon : [ chuckles ] it 's just that hilary is -- is making a career out of backstabbing , and that 's not the woman that i married . lily : okay , let 's be honest . the woman you married is not the same person as the woman who came to town to ruin dad . and she probably wo n't be the same woman five minutes from now because hilary is constantly changing . devon : listen , the hilary that i married was funny and smart and she was genuinely sweet , okay ? she was n't perfect , and she knew that , and she was always trying to better herself . and i 'm just -- i 'm hoping that she can get back to being that way . that 's all . lily : yes , because hoping always works . devon : you 're the one that told me that i needed to be there for my wife and love her and show her that , not just tell her . and i 've tried to , but it does n't register with her because her eyes are set on some goal that i do n't even understand . lily : look , a year ago , i would have told you to run away as fast as you can . devon : that 's exactly what you told me . lily : but i - i ca n't judge . i mean , obviously you love her , and i think in her own way , she loves you , too . so instead of hoping , why do n't you do something about it and face the problem head on ? cane : `` i 'm no role model . `` that 's what you said to me . and i argued with you over that . neil : i know . i know exactly what i am and what i 've done . you know what ? this lie -- it has practically killed me . cane : [ scoffs ] neil : and this foundation that i started , it is saving my ass . that 's right ! i - i - i feel like i 'm giving something back to the world , like i 'm making amends ! cane : if you wanted to make amends , you should have gone to the cops and told them the truth , but you did n't , did you ? and you lied to them . and you lied to your daughter and you lied to your son . you let him think his wife was dead . you let the cops and the media think he was involved . and i went down to virgin gorda to clear his name , and the whole time you had her locked in the damn boathouse in a coma ! neil : i wanted to see her get better ! cane : oh , no , you did n't . neil : i did ! cane : you did not ! you wanted to save your own ass . did you even think for a second how this implicated me , how it nearly wrecked my marriage ? the cops thought i demanded ransom money , and the whole time , you knew that i had nothing to do with it . neil : yeah . cane : yeah . neil : i did know . i did . i was responsible . i watched you try to save my son knowing i was the reason that he was a suspect . okay , you want to hear it from me ? yes , it was evil ! yes , it was low - down and dirty ! and hilary -- she grinds it in my face every chance she gets . cane : then cut her off at the knees and tell the damn truth ! neil : i ca n't do that ! and neither can you ! cane : why ? neil : devon does n't want this to come out any more than i do . cane : wait . are you telling me devon knows about this ? neil : yeah . that 's exactly what i 'm saying . he 's known about this for a while . cane : why has n't he gone to the police ? neil : because hilary begged him not to ! cane : [ chuckles ] okay . i get it now . this all happened back when hilary had amnesia , did n't it , and she thought she was with you . but now she 's with devon , right ? and the three of you had this little dirty secret going on . neil : yeah . cane : where you get your freedom , devon gets his wife back , and hilary -- well , she has power over both of you , does n't she ? neil : we made our choices , cane . cane : uh - huh . neil : and we are dealing with them . the three of us have an arrangement . cane : but it 's no longer just the three of you , is it , 'cause now i 'm involved , are n't i ? neil : if you have any respect at all for hilary and devon and their marriage and the pain that they 've been through , you wo n't tell the entire world this secret . cane : but i 'm not gon na tell the entire world , okay ? i 'm only gon na tell just one person . lily . neil : cane , you listen to me . you listen to me good . you ca n't tell lily anything . cane : i 'm not lying to her . neil : hey , stop , stop , stop ! just think about this for one minute , okay ? please . cane : my wife deserves to know who her father is . neil : this family has been through enough , man . leave it alone ! all right . all right , just hear me out . you need to understand the three people who are involved with this -- hilary , devon , and me -- we hurt each other badly . we hurt ourselves . but i made peace with devon . life -- life will never be the same . the damage has already been done , but you know something ? my son and i , we made it through . this family survived , and somehow we found our own kind of forgiveness . cane : [ scoffs ] neil : if -- if you tell lily , i might lose her . cane : whose fault is that ? neil : it 's my fault ! cane : yeah , it 's your fault . neil : `` let he who is without sin cast the first stone . `` let me remind you , you were right here where i am right now . you deceived this entire family ! you pretended to be dead ! lily was inconsolable , cane . imagine how you would feel if your little girl did n't want anything to do with you . how would you feel if your little girl looked up at you with disappointment and resentment in her eyes ? ! i love lily , the same -- the same way that you love mattie ! and if you tell her this , she might walk out of my life forever . cane : we do n't keep secrets anymore , neil . neil : oh ? okay . then -- then you want to hurt her . is that what you 're saying ? cane : no , i do n't want to hurt her ! i want to protect her from this mess ! neil : then why you gon na tell her ? why are you gon na tell her ? you already said it . devon , hilary , me -- we have to live with the filth of this secret . why are you gon na drag your wife , your beautiful wife , through this ? devon : things between me and hilary are complicated . lily : okay , let 's be honest . things have always been complicated since the moment hilary stepped into town . you did n't shy away from her issues when you were first attracted to her , so why are you backing down now ? there 's a marriage at stake . look , your wife is here , and i 'm gon na talk to abby . devon : okay . go on ahead and let her know , please , that we 're here for her . lily : yeah , talk about issues . at least yours do n't involve crimes . now talk to your wife . hilary : talk to me about what ? dylan : talk to your wife . you guys , talk to each other . no accusations , no assumptions . i 'll let you know as soon as i get word on max . abby : i do care about max , no matter what you think . stitch : yeah ? is that why you brought in the police ? abby : i called dylan to look at the security footage from the day that i fell . i needed to know for the sake of our baby . stitch : you did it to incriminate my son , to make him out to be some demon child . abby : no ! no , not a demon . he 's a child in pain . we have known that max has been angry since he got here . stitch : angry . not a maniac . abby : he was acting out , and it got worse . and even with all the proof , you did n't want to see it . you always thought that there would be some sort of explanation or that it was a misunderstanding . stitch : he could n't , okay ? there 's ... there 's no way a kid , my son , he just ... he could n't . abby : i took max 's mom away from him . that 's what max thinks . because i called to see if she would let him come to our wedding . so me , our wedding -- it cost him his mom , and that 's a huge loss . and then here i am . i 'm taking up space in your life , in your heart , and he did n't want me to replace jenna , not with you or with him . i wanted to be a good stepmom . i did . and maybe i got it wrong . and i wish that we had found a way to be a family . i wish that we were still picking out names for our little girl , for max 's little sister , but we 're not . [ voice breaking ] she is gone . just like max wanted . stitch : you talk about him like he 's evil . because that 's what you think he is . ashley : we 're gon na figure this out , honey . we will . in the meantime , um , there 's games on my computer from the last time you came to visit . why do n't you go in there and hang out , and neville and i are gon na have a little discussion , okay ? hey , max . good job coming here . dr. neville : [ sighs ] mixing up a batch of slime is n't gon na fix this , is it ? ashley : this was not a prank . dr. neville : you actually think he wanted abby to lose the baby ? ashley : shh . dr. neville : you did n't so much as blink when he mentioned that thing about wanting people to laugh . ashley : because i did n't want him to freak out , but believe me , my blood ran cold . dr. neville : well , i 'm not surprised . ashley , he 's -- he 's just a child . i know that you mentioned that abby suspected this , but -- ashley : i thought that maybe abby was just trying to find somebody to blame , but she obviously saw something in max that we did n't or maybe we did n't even want to . did you hear him ? did you hear that child when he said that tripping her was a prank ? i mean , it was so cold . dr. neville : well , it is plausible . i mean , in my youth , i may have blown up a garage just for -- ashley : neville , please . dr. neville : sorry . ashley : max is certainly old enough to realize that when a pregnant woman falls down a flight of stairs , she could lose her baby . dr. neville : huh . ashley : he planned this . he wanted this baby shower . he knew the exact time and place . dr. neville : but that level of planning , that level of calculation , i mean -- why would he come here and confess now ? ashley : because of the fire that happened at the gcac . abby told me that there was proof that he was in the server room . he was trying to destroy any kind of evidence of what he 'd done . dr. neville : ah , so now he comes here quaking -- ashley : with a cover story . this is unbelievable . he wants me to relay that story to abby and ben and plead his case . do you realize what he 's doing ? he 's using me . dr. neville : so , what now ? ashley : i know what i have to do . abby : max is n't evil . but he has more pain and rage than we could ever comprehend . we 're adults . we can go to therapy . we can shout to the sky . we can punch in a wall . but max -- he just has all of these -- these thoughts and feelings , feelings that -- that made him get into fights at school and accuse you of mistreating him . then it was the fire alarm , my fall , and then the fire . he 's getting worse . stitch : he is n't getting worse , okay ? he 's just ... he just needs time to adjust . abby : ben ... loving max means you have to see it . loving your son means that you have to stop him . he needs help . your son needs you , and i want to be there for both of you . i will do whatever i can to support you through this so no one else gets hurt . stitch : this is -- this is all my fault , okay ? i messed this whole thing up . i will take care of him . max needs me , all right ? so i will be there for him . i 'm -- i 'm all he has left . abby : you ca n't do it alone . you know when you treat a patient ? you -- you have a whole team . i - i - i can be your team . stitch : my son is not sick . abby : i did n't mean it like that . stitch : okay , this is not a patient . this is my little boy , and i will get him through this . abby : i know you love him . but sometimes love 's not enough . stitch : all right , you know , i ... i 'm sorry . i ... i ca n't do this right now . i got -- i got to go find max . [ cell phone rings ] stitch : max ! ashley : it 's ashley . max is here with me at the lab , though . stitch : thank god . ashley : i have n't called anybody yet . stitch : no dylan ? no cops ? ashley : no . stitch : all right , tell max i 'm on the way . and , ashley , tell him i love him . ashley : i will . your dad says he loves you very much . um , so , honey , when he gets here , you just tell him what you told us , all right ? and then , uh , he 'll understand everything . devon : which one of your jobs was that phone call about ? hilary : that was another huge donation for the foundation . devon : oh , good . hilary : i am just sending myself a reminder to set up some press for that donation . maybe a photo op with a massive , giant cardboard check . [ chuckles ] i know it 's cheesy , but it 's effective . devon : i guess the donor could just present the check straight to neil , right ? hilary : oh , yeah , but neil does n't have time for that . that 's why he leaves it to me . devon : you do n't think that it would -- it would present , like , an image of family and teamwork , though ? huh ? hilary : neil has his duties , and i have mine . besides , i do n't mind posing for a few photos . it 's all for the foundation . devon : yeah . are you -- are you worried at all about how neil 's gon na treat you if you work on an event together ? 'cause i know things are n't great between you two . hilary : that 's not true . [ chuckles ] we understand each other . we 're in a good place . devon : um , he just tried to get you kicked off the board . hilary : yes , but he did n't . here i am . okay , neil -- he understands how passionate i am about this project . and , devon , you were there . you saw neil convince jack to keep me on the board . devon : no , i know . i did . i - i 'm -- it just -- it feels like there 's more to it , like there 's extra motivation . hilary : well , maybe it 's because neil knows we 're family . we have each other 's back . devon : you have his back ? hilary : yes . devon : yeah ? hilary : why ? what 's wrong with that ? devon : i know what you did . i know that you blackmailed neil and that you 've been lying to my face about it . so , do you think that your actions do n't have consequences , or do you just not care at all ? lily : hey . cane : hey . lily : why did you want to meet here instead of at the club ? cane : do n't you want to enjoy a beautiful spring day outdoors with your husband ? lily : yeah , honey , i would , but a lot of stuff 's going on at work right now . cane : um ... there 's something i need to talk to you about . uh , i wanted to talk to you about it someplace quiet . sit down with me for a second . come here . lily : hmm . sounds ominous . [ cell phone rings ] lily : oh . oh , that 's dad . i should take this . cane : no , no , do n't -- do n't get it . lily : well , it could be about max . cane : it 's not about max . lily : so you know why he 's calling ? cane : yeah , i - i - i - i do , and , um , i need to talk to you first . lily : okay . so , you have my undivided attention . what 's so important that you have to tell me ? cane : i do n't want to say this 'cause i know it 's gon na hurt you . but we do n't have secrets anymore . lily : what is it ? cane : it 's about your father . abby : just when i thought i was getting through to ben , he shut me down , took off . dylan : he 's in denial . and i do n't even know how you process your kid being in that kind of emotional trouble . abby : ben blames himself and me and our marriage . he ca n't look at me without thinking it 's my fault . i can see it in his eyes . dylan : that 's not true . stitch carries a lot of guilt . he always has . i mean , he felt guilty leaving our unit to go home when max was born . and i know he feels guilty for letting things get out of control with his ex , and i am sure that he blames himself for max being messed up . abby : but this , it 's -- it 's not like you could see it coming . it 's not like it was just a kid acting out . it was something deeper , something darker , something that ben ca n't fix . dylan : well , he 's not gon na want to fix anything at all until we find max , so can you think of anyplace he might be ? abby : he 's just a kid . he ca n't go anywhere on his own , and he has n't made any friends . dylan : [ sighs ] no one to turn to if he 's in a bad way ? abby : actually , um , there is one person . stitch : ashley . ashley : hey . stitch : thank god . i 've been going nuts worrying about max . how 's he doing ? ashley : he 's okay . i mean , it 's a lot for a little kid to handle . stitch : is he in your office alone ? ashley : he 's with neville . and he 's safe . he 's not going anywhere . that 's all that matters . stitch : i need to see him . ashley : hold on a second . you need to know this . i spoke to him , and i think -- i know -- that abby 's right about him . and he -- he needs to see his father . ben , honestly , you have to be objectively looking at him , i mean , like a doctor , like a -- like a scientist . you need to hear what he has to say . i mean , really hear him , okay ? that 's the only way this is ever gon na get fixed . i 'm so sorry . dr. neville : would you like something from the vending machine ? maybe some juice ? [ door opens ] max : daddy ! stitch : buddy . please do n't scare me like that . never again , okay ? [ breathing heavily ] lily : what about dad ? is he drinking again ? cane : no , no . no , he 's -- he 's not drinking . it 's -- it 's -- it 's -- it 's -- lily : what ? is he -- is he sick ? is it his liver ? cane : no , he 's not sick . he 's healthy . he 's healthy . lily : well , then what is it ? cane : [ sighs deeply ] [ inhales sharply ] this is -- this is gon na be really hard for me to say , and it 's gon na be even harder for you to hear -- lily : oh , my god , cane . just spit it out . what is it ? tell me . you 're driving me crazy . cane : neil has been lying to you for a long time about something , and hilary and devon , they -- they know about it , as well . lily : what did he do ? cane : neil kidnapped hilary . lily : [ scoffs ] what ? what are you talking about ? cane : the whole time she was captive and we were looking for her ... it -- it was your dad . he had her . hilary : when did neil tell you about our agreement ? devon : it 's not an agreement . it 's blackmail . hilary : when did he tell you ? devon : it -- it does n't matter when he told me . hilary : no , it does . because how long have you been sitting on this information and you never talked to me about it ? you could have just come to me , devon . devon : you made it very clear , honey , that i should just support you no matter what . was n't that right ? hilary : okay , no , no , you know that that 's not how it is . devon : i do n't . i thought i did , and i thought i knew you , but i do n't , okay ? and i 've been searching for some form of regret that you have , but i ca n't find it . you do realize that threats and blackmail are n't a good thing ? hilary : [ scoffs ] i am sorry that you are upset and that you did n't feel like you could come to me , but it 's -- it 's really simple , devon . neil owes me . for him to stand between me and what i want , what i need to succeed and to thrive , that is not okay . he lost that right a long time ago . and neil calls it blackmail ? [ scoffs ] well , i call it a reminder that he never paid for what he did to us , a reminder of how lucky he really is to have his freedom . [ footsteps approach ] neil : hey . i hate to break up this party , but we have an issue that we have to deal with . hilary : yeah , i took care of it , neil . next time have a little discretion . neil : we 've got a much bigger problem than your ego right now . neil : cane heard you bragging that you got a sword over my neck . you could n't shut up , could you ? you could n't shut up . now he knows that i 'm the one who was hiding you while you were in the coma . devon : well , what the hell . what 's he gon na do ? neil : i made it very clear that this was between the three of us and there was no need to drag lily into it . devon : did he listen to you ? neil : i do n't know . i 've tried calling lily many times , but she 's not answering the phone . hilary : is she with him now ? neil : i have no idea . we better pray that man stays quiet , because if he does n't , if he tells lily about this , this whole world of ours is gon na blow up , and it 's gon na take us with it . lily : after all this time that we thought hilary was dead and people thought devon murdered her and joe framed you for blackmail -- through all of that , they lied to us ? cane : neil begged me not to say anything , but i made it very clear to him we do n't lie to each other anymore . lily : my dad ... what ? i mean , how ... how could he do this ? how could he do this ? abby : mom , have you seen max ? has he tried to call you ? dr. neville : well , it 's been an eventful day , no mistake . i was on my way to the vending machines . perhaps you 'd like to join me . abby : what ? no . no . max is missing . dylan : we 're trying to figure out where he may have gone , so if you have any ideas -- ashley : he 's actually in my office with his father right now . abby : what ? why did n't you say that when we walked in ? dr. neville : because he needs a moment alone with his father , not the authorities . abby : so you still do n't believe me . ashley : honey , just the opposite . i spoke to max , and i think you 're absolutely right . he wanted to hurt you , honey , and he wanted to hurt your baby . but right now , he needs to be alone with his dad , and his dad needs to hear him , hear everything he has to say . and i hope you can just be here as a friend , please , and not as the police , because they need to be alone and talk this out right now . abby : why ? so he can keep lying ? 'cause i guarantee you that 's all he 's doing in there . ashley : abby , do n't . please . honestly , just let them talk . stitch : buddy , you have got to stop scaring me like this . you know , there 's no reason to run off like that . if you did n't do anything wrong , there 's ... there 's nothing to be afraid of , right ? max : but i did do something . stitch : max , did you , um ... did you make abby fall ? max : but just as a prank . that 's all . stitch : just a prank , huh ? you did n't tell me before because -- 'cause you were scared ? max : i was scared you would n't love me anymore . stitch : i told you , i will always love you , max . nothing 's ever gon na change that . max , look at me . i will never stop loving you . i will always look out for you . max : but , dad , they 're coming for me . we -- you and me , we have to get out of here . we have to leave now ! abby : you 're not going anywhere . [ next_on ] jack : whatever you heard -- phyllis : no , it is what i saw when i went to billy 's . he is sleeping with fiona ! victoria : i am not subjecting the children to this . we 're turning right around and we 're leaving right now . billy : victoria , you do that , i will call the cops . stitch : i need you to be honest with me . i want to know the truth . | devon is worried that hilary is n't the woman he married because she had become cold , calculating , and power hungry . but lily advises him to continue to fight for his marriage and confront hilary about his feelings . devon confront hilary , but she insists that she will fight for what she wants and does n't care what she has to do to fulfill her ambitions . cane forces neil to tell him the truth about the motive of hilary 's blackmail . neil tells him the truth about hilary 's kidnapping and pleads with him not to tell lily . cane meets with lily in the park and tells her the whole kidnapping story . lily is upset that devon did n't tell her the truth . | <s>[INST] stitch : max , where are you ? ! max ! i told you to stay away from my son , and now he 's out there all alone . if anything happens to him -- dylan : nothing 's gon na happen . i put out an alert . we 're gon na find him . stitch : yeah , you better ! abby : i wish i was wrong about max . the thought that he could be filled with so much rage that he would want to hurt me , hurt the baby , start a fire to cover his tracks ? ashley : if you keep talking like that -- abby : oh , what , what ? i should just keep pretending like it is n't happening like everyone else is doing ? ashley : what i 'm trying to say is you 're making it sound like it 's a fact without taking ben 's feelings into consideration . that 's just gon na create more distance between the two of you . that 's what i 'm afraid of . abby : i ca n't save my marriage by pretending max is n't in trouble . max is broken . and his own father ca n't even see it . do you think that i want to be the one to force my husband to admit that his son is dangerous ? ashley : of course not . i know you do n't want that , honey . abby : when ben hears the evidence , when he finds out that our baby is gone because of his own son , it will destroy him . and i wo n't be able to help him . ashley : why do you say that ? abby : because ben wo n't let me . mom , we 're already falling apart , and , in the end , he will feel forced to choose between his son and our marriage , and ... really , there 's -- there 's no choice at all . dr. neville : master max . what are you doing here ? lily : if you could have seen dylan 's face when the forensic results came in ... it ties max to the fire . he now has evidence against his best friend 's son . devon : geez . so literally everything abby 's been saying is true 'cause max made her fall and then set the fire to cover it up . lily : how do you even process that ? she lost the baby , but it was n't an accident . devon : it 's horrible . abby is -- she 's strong . she 's a lot stronger than people give her credit . lily : i mean , she tried to warn everyone about max , and nobody would listen , especially stitch . it 's , like , how does your relationship survive that ? devon : yeah , when you feel like your partner is n't hearing you or , worse , does n't want to hear you . it 's a bad place to be . hilary : hey . why does it look like a funeral over here ? we should actually be popping champagne corks . lily : why ? what happened ? hilary : well , jack loved my idea for getting press for the foundation and the medical research at the same time . two birds , one shiny stone named hilary . lily : oh . so we 're talking about stones ? hilary : yeah , i think it really helped that neil and i were on the same page , you know ? devon : i never got a chance to thank you for backing hilary and urging jack to keep her on the board . i appreciate it . neil : wait , what did you say ? backing ? devon : yeah . neil : son , your wife gave me no choice . she blackmailed me , just like she blackmailed ashley . cane : so you were the one ... devon : i have no doubt that you were very convincing . cane : i know what i heard . i heard what she said . neil : [ hushed ] shut up . they 're right over there . listen to me . you ca n't do this . you ca n't do this , cane . cane : get out of my way . neil : i will tell you everything , all right ? i promise . all of it . not here . not now . you owe me that much . hi . [ sighs ] cane : all right . you want to explain to me ? do it . go ahead . 'cause i want to hear how you can rationalize kidnapping your son 's wife and letting the world think that she was dead . neil : no , no , no , no , no . that was never what i wanted . cane : oh , so this is what hilary wanted ? what ? she kidnapped herself and locked herself in the boathouse while she was in a coma ? neil : no , just hear me out , all right ? it was after devon and hilary 's wedding . i was so angry , i could n't even see straight . i was consumed to the point where all i wanted was to pay them back . i wanted to get revenge . cane : so that speech that you made at the wedding about forgiveness , that was all a smokescreen ? neil : no , it was not . cane : did you know what you were gon na do to hilary ? neil : it was n't like that . it was all about breaking them up , breaking their hearts . that 's all . and i followed them on their honeymoon and i -- cane : do you realize how deranged this sounds ? neil : yes , i do ! cane : okay . neil : and i followed them and i got her alone , and i showed her that videotape of devon 's bachelor party and that prostitute . cane : okay , then you pushed her off the cliff . neil : i did n't do that ! she fell all on her own ! do you understand ? i got her out of that water . i saved her life ! cane : oh , so you 're a hero ? neil : no ! cane : you 're a hero ? neil : i saved her ! she would have drowned if it was n't for me . no one would have believed it was an accident , so what did i do , cane ? i flew her to genoa city . i got her in that boathouse , and i waited for her to wake up until she could tell the entire world everything ! cane : so you 're the one who hired dr . neville . he said he did n't know who paid him , but it was you , was n't it ? the two of you were in this together . neil : he -- he -- we -- we both wanted her to recover . cane : but why would you want her to recover if you wanted revenge , huh ? she would have died , your son would have gone to jail . that 's what you wanted . neil : i did n't want that . i did n't want that for either of them . i was totally out of control ! it was like some bender without the alcohol . just rage , man ! all i wanted was for her to get better and to get back with devon . and they did . they got back together . they made it through . their marriage and their life right now is what they wanted all along . cane : so , what ? you 're off the hook ? is that what you tell yourself when you wake up in the morning ? you 're off the hook ? hilary : honestly , it makes sense that jack , neil , and i would work well together . we were a well - oiled machine at jabot way back when . and those two , they understand business , unlike ashley and neville . they do n't understand anything outside of a lab . lily : actually , uh , ashley is a very experienced businesswoman . i think people associate her more with that than with her work as a chemist . hilary : well , i 'm just speculating here , but i think that she 's used to being the only powerful woman in the room . but hey , look at me . she better get used to it . lily : well , you did also blackmail her , so there could be a personal element . i 'm -- i 'm just speculating . hilary : ashley was ill . i encouraged her to step back and look after herself . if people insist on misunderstanding that , that 's on them , not on me . devon understands . he knows exactly where my heart is . right ? devon : i am understanding more and more every day . dylan : patrol cars are in the area . i 'm gon na give them a heads up , then i 'm gon na go out on foot . and if i find anything , i 'll call you . stitch : okay , you cover east of jabot . i 'll go the other way towards memorial . dylan : okay , wait , hold on . i think -- i think you should stay here . stitch : i 'm not staying here ! my son 's out there ! dylan : okay , max could come back looking for you . i think you should be here . stitch : all right , fine . go . now . find my kid . dr. neville : come here , max . does anyone know that you 're here ? because you 're afraid you 're in trouble ? that 's okay . you do n't have to answer that . you -- you came here to -- to see me ? to see ashley ? max : but abby 's in there . she hates me . dr. neville : no , no , no , no , no . no , no . stay . no one hates you . i promise you . you 're amongst friends . and , uh , i tell you what . you -- you tell me everything and -- and i 'll figure out how to fix it . ashley : you and ben have n't even had a chance to be a real married couple because max moved in with you right after your wedding day , honey . there 's been nothing but chaos since then . but you know how much ben loves you , honey . he adores you . abby : yeah , but that love is nothing compared to what a parent feels for their child . i mean , that 's what everyone keeps telling poor , childless me . ashley : look , i 'm sorry i said that , because a marriage has its own bond . and if a couple truly loves each other and they 're strong and they 're mature , then they 'll be there for each other , just the way you 're gon na be there for ben , 'cause i know you 're not gon na let him go through this alone . right ? dr. neville : [ clears throat ] uh , apologies , miss abby . uh , ashley , i 'm afraid i need to speak to you . it 's important . ashley : it 's not a very good time . dr. neville : no , it 's a recent development which most definitely requires your attention . abby : you know what ? it 's fine . i have somewhere to be . ashley : if you need me , honey ... abby : i know . thank you . ashley : bye . abby : bye . ashley : what 's going on ? this is really not a good -- max : ashley ! ashley : max ! honey ! [ door closes ] ashley : what 's going on ? dr. neville : max is in some trouble . i 'm afraid he has some concerns that dr . rayburn will be angry with him . and as per his request , no one else knows he 's here because the only one he 'll speak to is you . ashley : did you run away ? okay , what happened ? what 's going on ? max : dylan came for me . he wants to take me to jail . ashley : oh , honey , i 'm sure it 's nothing that bad . max : he thinks i did something terrible . ashley : does this have to do with the baby shower and the fire that happened ? max : it 's not like they 're saying . ashley : okay , well , why do n't you tell me what happened ? and just start with the baby shower . okay , look . do you trust me ? okay , just tell me the truth in your own words . max : i made abby trip on the stairs . dylan : three - block radius . no sign of max . we 're expanding the perimeter . any word from him ? stitch : no calls , no sign of him . this is n't like the last time he ran . god knows max could be anywhere by now . abby : wait . max is missing ? stitch : yeah . thanks to detective mcavoy scaring the hell out of him here . dylan : [ sighs ] abby : how ? what happened ? dylan : max had the master key , and it was used to enter the server room right before the fire . abby : oh , my god . dylan : max heard me , uh , telling stitch about the evidence that places max in the room . stitch : yeah , and then he took off through the window , and now we 're wasting time talking about it instead of finding a helpless , little kid ! abby : all right , well , let me help . tell me where to go . stitch : do n't pretend like you suddenly care about my son . ashley : you made abby fall ? max : i put something on the stairs . ashley : so that she would trip ? max : but not to get hurt ! just like an internet video . she would trip , she would fall , people would laugh , she 'd be embarrassed , and that 's it ! ashley : oh , right . kind of like , um , a prank . max : yeah . and that 's all ! i swear ! i mean , now people are thinking i was jealous of the baby . ashley : but you were n't jealous at all , were you ? so , everything happened so fast that it probably scared you , right , that nobody would believe you ? it 's good that you told me the truth , honey . and -- and , um , now that you have , uh , it 's -- it 's -- it 's gon na be okay . i promise . [ cell phone rings ] hilary : uh ... oh . hi . this is hilary . yes . good . how are you ? lily : the look in your eyes . devon : [ chuckles ] it 's just that hilary is -- is making a career out of backstabbing , and that 's not the woman that i married . lily : okay , let 's be honest . the woman you married is not the same person as the woman who came to town to ruin dad . and she probably wo n't be the same woman five minutes from now because hilary is constantly changing . devon : listen , the hilary that i married was funny and smart and she was genuinely sweet , okay ? she was n't perfect , and she knew that , and she was always trying to better herself . and i 'm just -- i 'm hoping that she can get back to being that way . that 's all . lily : yes , because hoping always works . devon : you 're the one that told me that i needed to be there for my wife and love her and show her that , not just tell her . and i 've tried to , but it does n't register with her because her eyes are set on some goal that i do n't even understand . lily : look , a year ago , i would have told you to run away as fast as you can . devon : that 's exactly what you told me . lily : but i - i ca n't judge . i mean , obviously you love her , and i think in her own way , she loves you , too . so instead of hoping , why do n't you do something about it and face the problem head on ? cane : `` i 'm no role model . `` that 's what you said to me . and i argued with you over that . neil : i know . i know exactly what i am and what i 've done . you know what ? this lie -- it has practically killed me . cane : [ scoffs ] neil : and this foundation that i started , it is saving my ass . that 's right ! i - i - i feel like i 'm giving something back to the world , like i 'm making amends ! cane : if you wanted to make amends , you should have gone to the cops and told them the truth , but you did n't , did you ? and you lied to them . and you lied to your daughter and you lied to your son . you let him think his wife was dead . you let the cops and the media think he was involved . and i went down to virgin gorda to clear his name , and the whole time you had her locked in the damn boathouse in a coma ! neil : i wanted to see her get better ! cane : oh , no , you did n't . neil : i did ! cane : you did not ! you wanted to save your own ass . did you even think for a second how this implicated me , how it nearly wrecked my marriage ? the cops thought i demanded ransom money , and the whole time , you knew that i had nothing to do with it . neil : yeah . cane : yeah . neil : i did know . i did . i was responsible . i watched you try to save my son knowing i was the reason that he was a suspect . okay , you want to hear it from me ? yes , it was evil ! yes , it was low - down and dirty ! and hilary -- she grinds it in my face every chance she gets . cane : then cut her off at the knees and tell the damn truth ! neil : i ca n't do that ! and neither can you ! cane : why ? neil : devon does n't want this to come out any more than i do . cane : wait . are you telling me devon knows about this ? neil : yeah . that 's exactly what i 'm saying . he 's known about this for a while . cane : why has n't he gone to the police ? neil : because hilary begged him not to ! cane : [ chuckles ] okay . i get it now . this all happened back when hilary had amnesia , did n't it , and she thought she was with you . but now she 's with devon , right ? and the three of you had this little dirty secret going on . neil : yeah . cane : where you get your freedom , devon gets his wife back , and hilary -- well , she has power over both of you , does n't she ? neil : we made our choices , cane . cane : uh - huh . neil : and we are dealing with them . the three of us have an arrangement . cane : but it 's no longer just the three of you , is it , 'cause now i 'm involved , are n't i ? neil : if you have any respect at all for hilary and devon and their marriage and the pain that they 've been through , you wo n't tell the entire world this secret . cane : but i 'm not gon na tell the entire world , okay ? i 'm only gon na tell just one person . lily . neil : cane , you listen to me . you listen to me good . you ca n't tell lily anything . cane : i 'm not lying to her . neil : hey , stop , stop , stop ! just think about this for one minute , okay ? please . cane : my wife deserves to know who her father is . neil : this family has been through enough , man . leave it alone ! all right . all right , just hear me out . you need to understand the three people who are involved with this -- hilary , devon , and me -- we hurt each other badly . we hurt ourselves . but i made peace with devon . life -- life will never be the same . the damage has already been done , but you know something ? my son and i , we made it through . this family survived , and somehow we found our own kind of forgiveness . cane : [ scoffs ] neil : if -- if you tell lily , i might lose her . cane : whose fault is that ? neil : it 's my fault ! cane : yeah , it 's your fault . neil : `` let he who is without sin cast the first stone . `` let me remind you , you were right here where i am right now . you deceived this entire family ! you pretended to be dead ! lily was inconsolable , cane . imagine how you would feel if your little girl did n't want anything to do with you . how would you feel if your little girl looked up at you with disappointment and resentment in her eyes ? ! i love lily , the same -- the same way that you love mattie ! and if you tell her this , she might walk out of my life forever . cane : we do n't keep secrets anymore , neil . neil : oh ? okay . then -- then you want to hurt her . is that what you 're saying ? cane : no , i do n't want to hurt her ! i want to protect her from this mess ! neil : then why you gon na tell her ? why are you gon na tell her ? you already said it . devon , hilary , me -- we have to live with the filth of this secret . why are you gon na drag your wife , your beautiful wife , through this ? devon : things between me and hilary are complicated . lily : okay , let 's be honest . things have always been complicated since the moment hilary stepped into town . you did n't shy away from her issues when you were first attracted to her , so why are you backing down now ? there 's a marriage at stake . look , your wife is here , and i 'm gon na talk to abby . devon : okay . go on ahead and let her know , please , that we 're here for her . lily : yeah , talk about issues . at least yours do n't involve crimes . now talk to your wife . hilary : talk to me about what ? dylan : talk to your wife . you guys , talk to each other . no accusations , no assumptions . i 'll let you know as soon as i get word on max . abby : i do care about max , no matter what you think . stitch : yeah ? is that why you brought in the police ? abby : i called dylan to look at the security footage from the day that i fell . i needed to know for the sake of our baby . stitch : you did it to incriminate my son , to make him out to be some demon child . abby : no ! no , not a demon . he 's a child in pain . we have known that max has been angry since he got here . stitch : angry . not a maniac . abby : he was acting out , and it got worse . and even with all the proof , you did n't want to see it . you always thought that there would be some sort of explanation or that it was a misunderstanding . stitch : he could n't , okay ? there 's ... there 's no way a kid , my son , he just ... he could n't . abby : i took max 's mom away from him . that 's what max thinks . because i called to see if she would let him come to our wedding . so me , our wedding -- it cost him his mom , and that 's a huge loss . and then here i am . i 'm taking up space in your life , in your heart , and he did n't want me to replace jenna , not with you or with him . i wanted to be a good stepmom . i did . and maybe i got it wrong . and i wish that we had found a way to be a family . i wish that we were still picking out names for our little girl , for max 's little sister , but we 're not . [ voice breaking ] she is gone . just like max wanted . stitch : you talk about him like he 's evil . because that 's what you think he is . ashley : we 're gon na figure this out , honey . we will . in the meantime , um , there 's games on my computer from the last time you came to visit . why do n't you go in there and hang out , and neville and i are gon na have a little discussion , okay ? hey , max . good job coming here . dr. neville : [ sighs ] mixing up a batch of slime is n't gon na fix this , is it ? ashley : this was not a prank . dr. neville : you actually think he wanted abby to lose the baby ? ashley : shh . dr. neville : you did n't so much as blink when he mentioned that thing about wanting people to laugh . ashley : because i did n't want him to freak out , but believe me , my blood ran cold . dr. neville : well , i 'm not surprised . ashley , he 's -- he 's just a child . i know that you mentioned that abby suspected this , but -- ashley : i thought that maybe abby was just trying to find somebody to blame , but she obviously saw something in max that we did n't or maybe we did n't even want to . did you hear him ? did you hear that child when he said that tripping her was a prank ? i mean , it was so cold . dr. neville : well , it is plausible . i mean , in my youth , i may have blown up a garage just for -- ashley : neville , please . dr. neville : sorry . ashley : max is certainly old enough to realize that when a pregnant woman falls down a flight of stairs , she could lose her baby . dr. neville : huh . ashley : he planned this . he wanted this baby shower . he knew the exact time and place . dr. neville : but that level of planning , that level of calculation , i mean -- why would he come here and confess now ? ashley : because of the fire that happened at the gcac . abby told me that there was proof that he was in the server room . he was trying to destroy any kind of evidence of what he 'd done . dr. neville : ah , so now he comes here quaking -- ashley : with a cover story . this is unbelievable . he wants me to relay that story to abby and ben and plead his case . do you realize what he 's doing ? he 's using me . dr. neville : so , what now ? ashley : i know what i have to do . abby : max is n't evil . but he has more pain and rage than we could ever comprehend . we 're adults . we can go to therapy . we can shout to the sky . we can punch in a wall . but max -- he just has all of these -- these thoughts and feelings , feelings that -- that made him get into fights at school and accuse you of mistreating him . then it was the fire alarm , my fall , and then the fire . he 's getting worse . stitch : he is n't getting worse , okay ? he 's just ... he just needs time to adjust . abby : ben ... loving max means you have to see it . loving your son means that you have to stop him . he needs help . your son needs you , and i want to be there for both of you . i will do whatever i can to support you through this so no one else gets hurt . stitch : this is -- this is all my fault , okay ? i messed this whole thing up . i will take care of him . max needs me , all right ? so i will be there for him . i 'm -- i 'm all he has left . abby : you ca n't do it alone . you know when you treat a patient ? you -- you have a whole team . i - i - i can be your team . stitch : my son is not sick . abby : i did n't mean it like that . stitch : okay , this is not a patient . this is my little boy , and i will get him through this . abby : i know you love him . but sometimes love 's not enough . stitch : all right , you know , i ... i 'm sorry . i ... i ca n't do this right now . i got -- i got to go find max . [ cell phone rings ] stitch : max ! ashley : it 's ashley . max is here with me at the lab , though . stitch : thank god . ashley : i have n't called anybody yet . stitch : no dylan ? no cops ? ashley : no . stitch : all right , tell max i 'm on the way . and , ashley , tell him i love him . ashley : i will . your dad says he loves you very much . um , so , honey , when he gets here , you just tell him what you told us , all right ? and then , uh , he 'll understand everything . devon : which one of your jobs was that phone call about ? hilary : that was another huge donation for the foundation . devon : oh , good . hilary : i am just sending myself a reminder to set up some press for that donation . maybe a photo op with a massive , giant cardboard check . [ chuckles ] i know it 's cheesy , but it 's effective . devon : i guess the donor could just present the check straight to neil , right ? hilary : oh , yeah , but neil does n't have time for that . that 's why he leaves it to me . devon : you do n't think that it would -- it would present , like , an image of family and teamwork , though ? huh ? hilary : neil has his duties , and i have mine . besides , i do n't mind posing for a few photos . it 's all for the foundation . devon : yeah . are you -- are you worried at all about how neil 's gon na treat you if you work on an event together ? 'cause i know things are n't great between you two . hilary : that 's not true . [ chuckles ] we understand each other . we 're in a good place . devon : um , he just tried to get you kicked off the board . hilary : yes , but he did n't . here i am . okay , neil -- he understands how passionate i am about this project . and , devon , you were there . you saw neil convince jack to keep me on the board . devon : no , i know . i did . i - i 'm -- it just -- it feels like there 's more to it , like there 's extra motivation . hilary : well , maybe it 's because neil knows we 're family . we have each other 's back . devon : you have his back ? hilary : yes . devon : yeah ? hilary : why ? what 's wrong with that ? devon : i know what you did . i know that you blackmailed neil and that you 've been lying to my face about it . so , do you think that your actions do n't have consequences , or do you just not care at all ? lily : hey . cane : hey . lily : why did you want to meet here instead of at the club ? cane : do n't you want to enjoy a beautiful spring day outdoors with your husband ? lily : yeah , honey , i would , but a lot of stuff 's going on at work right now . cane : um ... there 's something i need to talk to you about . uh , i wanted to talk to you about it someplace quiet . sit down with me for a second . come here . lily : hmm . sounds ominous . [ cell phone rings ] lily : oh . oh , that 's dad . i should take this . cane : no , no , do n't -- do n't get it . lily : well , it could be about max . cane : it 's not about max . lily : so you know why he 's calling ? cane : yeah , i - i - i - i do , and , um , i need to talk to you first . lily : okay . so , you have my undivided attention . what 's so important that you have to tell me ? cane : i do n't want to say this 'cause i know it 's gon na hurt you . but we do n't have secrets anymore . lily : what is it ? cane : it 's about your father . abby : just when i thought i was getting through to ben , he shut me down , took off . dylan : he 's in denial . and i do n't even know how you process your kid being in that kind of emotional trouble . abby : ben blames himself and me and our marriage . he ca n't look at me without thinking it 's my fault . i can see it in his eyes . dylan : that 's not true . stitch carries a lot of guilt . he always has . i mean , he felt guilty leaving our unit to go home when max was born . and i know he feels guilty for letting things get out of control with his ex , and i am sure that he blames himself for max being messed up . abby : but this , it 's -- it 's not like you could see it coming . it 's not like it was just a kid acting out . it was something deeper , something darker , something that ben ca n't fix . dylan : well , he 's not gon na want to fix anything at all until we find max , so can you think of anyplace he might be ? abby : he 's just a kid . he ca n't go anywhere on his own , and he has n't made any friends . dylan : [ sighs ] no one to turn to if he 's in a bad way ? abby : actually , um , there is one person . stitch : ashley . ashley : hey . stitch : thank god . i 've been going nuts worrying about max . how 's he doing ? ashley : he 's okay . i mean , it 's a lot for a little kid to handle . stitch : is he in your office alone ? ashley : he 's with neville . and he 's safe . he 's not going anywhere . that 's all that matters . stitch : i need to see him . ashley : hold on a second . you need to know this . i spoke to him , and i think -- i know -- that abby 's right about him . and he -- he needs to see his father . ben , honestly , you have to be objectively looking at him , i mean , like a doctor , like a -- like a scientist . you need to hear what he has to say . i mean , really hear him , okay ? that 's the only way this is ever gon na get fixed . i 'm so sorry . dr. neville : would you like something from the vending machine ? maybe some juice ?

[ scoffs ] well , i call it a reminder that he never paid for what he did to us , a reminder of how lucky he really is to have his freedom . [ footsteps approach ] neil : hey . i hate to break up this party , but we have an issue that we have to deal with . hilary : yeah , i took care of it , neil . next time have a little discretion . neil : we 've got a much bigger problem than your ego right now . neil : cane heard you bragging that you got a sword over my neck . you could n't shut up , could you ? you could n't shut up . now he knows that i 'm the one who was hiding you while you were in the coma . devon : well , what the hell . what 's he gon na do ? neil : i made it very clear that this was between the three of us and there was no need to drag lily into it . devon : did he listen to you ? neil : i do n't know . i 've tried calling lily many times , but she 's not answering the phone . hilary : is she with him now ? neil : i have no idea . we better pray that man stays quiet , because if he does n't , if he tells lily about this , this whole world of ours is gon na blow up , and it 's gon na take us with it . lily : after all this time that we thought hilary was dead and people thought devon murdered her and joe framed you for blackmail -- through all of that , they lied to us ? cane : neil begged me not to say anything , but i made it very clear to him we do n't lie to each other anymore . lily : my dad ... what ? i mean , how ... how could he do this ? how could he do this ? abby : mom , have you seen max ? has he tried to call you ? dr. neville : well , it 's been an eventful day , no mistake . i was on my way to the vending machines . perhaps you 'd like to join me . abby : what ? no . no . max is missing . dylan : we 're trying to figure out where he may have gone , so if you have any ideas -- ashley : he 's actually in my office with his father right now . abby : what ? why did n't you say that when we walked in ? dr. neville : because he needs a moment alone with his father , not the authorities . abby : so you still do n't believe me . ashley : honey , just the opposite . i spoke to max , and i think you 're absolutely right . he wanted to hurt you , honey , and he wanted to hurt your baby . but right now , he needs to be alone with his dad , and his dad needs to hear him , hear everything he has to say . and i hope you can just be here as a friend , please , and not as the police , because they need to be alone and talk this out right now . abby : why ? so he can keep lying ? 'cause i guarantee you that 's all he 's doing in there . ashley : abby , do n't . please . honestly , just let them talk . stitch : buddy , you have got to stop scaring me like this . you know , there 's no reason to run off like that . if you did n't do anything wrong , there 's ... there 's nothing to be afraid of , right ? max : but i did do something . stitch : max , did you , um ... did you make abby fall ? max : but just as a prank . that 's all . stitch : just a prank , huh ? you did n't tell me before because -- 'cause you were scared ? max : i was scared you would n't love me anymore . stitch : i told you , i will always love you , max . nothing 's ever gon na change that . max , look at me . i will never stop loving you . i will always look out for you . max : but , dad , they 're coming for me . we -- you and me , we have to get out of here . we have to leave now ! abby : you 're not going anywhere .

[ scene_break ] mac : as soon as the police get here , you 'll be transported to the pcpd . faith : if i make it that far . i do n't suppose you 'd want to give me some sort of implement to use as a weapon to defend myself in case the crazed murderer returns to the scene of the crime ? mac : the only person likely to come looking for you is justus . faith : were you not paying attention ? he just turned his back on me . felicia : justus is a brilliant attorney , and he 's very convincing . but that does n't mean that we believe him . faith : you 're setting a trap ? mac : if justus comes looking for you , we 'll know he 's been your accomplice . [ scene_break ] emily : she came out of nowhere . one minute i was checking the room for some clue to the killer 's identity , and the next she was on me and we struggled , and i managed to grab hold of her mask and i ripped it off , and there -- there was mary . she had this look in her eyes , nikolas . she wanted me dead . nikolas : you tried to warn me she was insane . i 'm so sorry . i should 've listened to you . emily : no , listen , i may have run upon a few red flags , but i had no idea that she was that far gone . and never for one moment did i think that she was violent and capable of cold - blooded murder . nikolas : ok . she wanted you out of the way . she thought she 'd be removing her last obstacle to me . but why sage and trent ? why 'd she kill them ? those kids were no threat to her . emily : mary thought i was sage . i mean , she did n't even care that she 'd killed two innocent teenagers . i mean , she 'd convinced herself that everyone in the house was conspiring with me to keep connor away from her . nikolas : connor ? emily : nikolas , mary still believes that you 're her husband . she thinks that i 'm holding you prisoner , and she will stop at nothing to free you . nikolas : i 'm so sorry . i 'm so sorry . i 'm so sorry . emily : it 's not your fault . nikolas : no , i wanted to trust her . i agreed to let her help us . emily : well , there 's no way that you could have known . nikolas : i just -- i ca n't believe it . i mean , you -- you say it was her , so i know it 's true , but she seemed to be gentle , loving , even . terribly misguided , but it seemed to be a product of her grief . i just -- i ca n't see how she could kill anyone . emily : she 's mentally ill . nikolas : i think it 's more than that . something -- something turned her violent like this . emily : maybe -- maybe it 's despair , you know ? maybe she realized that she 'd truly lost you , and her mind just snapped . nikolas : i do n't like thinking that i could drive someone to madness . emily : it 's not you . nikolas : i thought she was my wife . i said all the things that i was supposed to . i told her that i loved her ; i told her that i would n't leave her . emily : because she lied about who you were . nikolas : i know . i 'm just trying to see this from her point of view . you know , she was lonely , she was grieving . and you know what ? i know what that feels like . because when we were afraid that you were n't going to survive the cancer , i did n't want to think about the rest of my life without you . emily : right . so -- so mary 's grieving , and suddenly you show up at her door , and now there 's hope . it 's a new chance at love , and all she has to do is lie . nikolas : but after a while , i do n't think it was a lie anymore . i think she convinced herself that what she and i had was real , and i did n't help matters any by asking her to remarry me . the only reality that mary can live with right now is the one that she created , where she and i belong to each other . when i turned away from mary , she tried to win me back . she thought she still had a chance because of how angry i was at you . emily : and when we reconciled , then she lost any realistic hope of being with you . nikolas : so she created an alter reality , one where i was still her husband , a reality where you were holding me prisoner and she had to save me . if i believed that you were being held prisoner somewhere by someone , i would do whatever is necessary to free you . and that includes wanting whatever person or persons were responsible dead . emily : so mary 's not giving up ? nikolas : i would n't , and neither would you . mary could n't save her dead husband , connor , so now she 's trying to save me . emily : by killing me . so , what do we do next ? nikolas : hmm . go downstairs , i guess . tell everyone what happened . i wonder if mary 's still in the house . emily : well , she knows that -- that she 's been discovered . and she -- she might be too far gone now , you know , to understand the risk , so maybe she 's just going to stay close and keep trying to get after you . nikolas : i should 've never left you alone like that in here after i knew dillon -- what happened to him -- emily : it 's ok . nikolas : no , no , it 's not . she almost killed you . she almost killed you . and i know that i 'm just trying to see this from her perspective and be logical , but all i can see is you lying on this floor . she almost killed you , emily , and that ca n't happen again , ok ? i do n't give a damn how sick she is . she needs to be stopped . and i 'll kill her before i let her hurt you again .

[ scene_break ] nikolas : when i learned the truth about who i was , mary tried to kill herself . that should 've been my first clue that she was unstable , but i guess i missed it . felicia : and so you thought differently , emily ? emily : yeah , something about mary was just off to me . you know , i did n't trust her after all the lies she told , and her sense of entitlement when it came to nikolas just did n't seem normal . but you have to understand , see , normal when it comes to mary is very subjective . nikolas : i assume that when i chose to go back to emily that -- as if there was ever a choice -- i mean , she 's the only woman i 've ever loved , and if i did n't have the head injury , we 'd probably be -- anyway , i can only assume that that 's when she lost touch with reality . mac : mary figured if you were dead , nikolas would take her back . emily : not exactly . it was connor that she wanted . nikolas : mary still thinks that i 'm her dead husband . felicia : so from mary 's point of view , she was acting out of love ? emily : her version of it , i guess . mary thinks that by killing me , she rescues connor . mac : was mary injured in the struggle ? emily : i -- i do n't know . i hit her , i knocked her down hard , but i do n't think that there was any serious damage . mac : well , then she 's still a threat .

[ scene_break ] emily : she came out of nowhere . one minute i was checking the room for some clue to the killer 's identity , and the next she was on me and we struggled , and i managed to grab hold of her mask and i ripped it off , and there -- there was mary . she had this look in her eyes , nikolas . she wanted me dead . nikolas : you tried to warn me she was insane . i 'm so sorry . i should 've listened to you . emily : no , listen , i may have run upon a few red flags , but i had no idea that she was that far gone . and never for one moment did i think that she was violent and capable of cold - blooded murder . nikolas : ok . she wanted you out of the way . she thought she 'd be removing her last obstacle to me . but why sage and trent ? why 'd she kill them ? those kids were no threat to her . emily : mary thought i was sage . i mean , she did n't even care that she 'd killed two innocent teenagers . i mean , she 'd convinced herself that everyone in the house was conspiring with me to keep connor away from her . nikolas : connor ? emily : nikolas , mary still believes that you 're her husband . she thinks that i 'm holding you prisoner , and she will stop at nothing to free you . nikolas : i 'm so sorry . i 'm so sorry . i 'm so sorry . emily : it 's not your fault . nikolas : no , i wanted to trust her . i agreed to let her help us . emily : well , there 's no way that you could have known . nikolas : i just -- i ca n't believe it . i mean , you -- you say it was her , so i know it 's true , but she seemed to be gentle , loving , even . terribly misguided , but it seemed to be a product of her grief . i just -- i ca n't see how she could kill anyone . emily : she 's mentally ill . nikolas : i think it 's more than that . something -- something turned her violent like this . emily : maybe -- maybe it 's despair , you know ? maybe she realized that she 'd truly lost you , and her mind just snapped . nikolas : i do n't like thinking that i could drive someone to madness . emily : it 's not you . nikolas : i thought she was my wife . i said all the things that i was supposed to . i told her that i loved her ; i told her that i would n't leave her . emily : because she lied about who you were . nikolas : i know . i 'm just trying to see this from her point of view . you know , she was lonely , she was grieving . and you know what ? i know what that feels like . because when we were afraid that you were n't going to survive the cancer , i did n't want to think about the rest of my life without you . emily : right . so -- so mary 's grieving , and suddenly you show up at her door , and now there 's hope . it 's a new chance at love , and all she has to do is lie . nikolas : but after a while , i do n't think it was a lie anymore . i think she convinced herself that what she and i had was real , and i did n't help matters any by asking her to remarry me . the only reality that mary can live with right now is the one that she created , where she and i belong to each other . when i turned away from mary , she tried to win me back . she thought she still had a chance because of how angry i was at you . emily : and when we reconciled , then she lost any realistic hope of being with you . nikolas : so she created an alter reality , one where i was still her husband , a reality where you were holding me prisoner and she had to save me . if i believed that you were being held prisoner somewhere by someone , i would do whatever is necessary to free you . and that includes wanting whatever person or persons were responsible dead . emily : so mary 's not giving up ? nikolas : i would n't , and neither would you . mary could n't save her dead husband , connor , so now she 's trying to save me . emily : by killing me . so , what do we do next ? nikolas : hmm . go downstairs , i guess . tell everyone what happened . i wonder if mary 's still in the house . emily : well , she knows that -- that she 's been discovered . and she -- she might be too far gone now , you know , to understand the risk , so maybe she 's just going to stay close and keep trying to get after you . nikolas : i should 've never left you alone like that in here after i knew dillon -- what happened to him -- emily : it 's ok . nikolas : no , no , it 's not . she almost killed you . she almost killed you . and i know that i 'm just trying to see this from her perspective and be logical , but all i can see is you lying on this floor . she almost killed you , emily , and that ca n't happen again , ok ? i do n't give a damn how sick she is . she needs to be stopped . and i 'll kill her before i let her hurt you again .

[ scene_break ] nikolas : when i learned the truth about who i was , mary tried to kill herself . that should 've been my first clue that she was unstable , but i guess i missed it . felicia : and so you thought differently , emily ? emily : yeah , something about mary was just off to me . you know , i did n't trust her after all the lies she told , and her sense of entitlement when it came to nikolas just did n't seem normal . but you have to understand , see , normal when it comes to mary is very subjective . nikolas : i assume that when i chose to go back to emily that -- as if there was ever a choice -- i mean , she 's the only woman i 've ever loved , and if i did n't have the head injury , we 'd probably be -- anyway , i can only assume that that 's when she lost touch with reality . mac : mary figured if you were dead , nikolas would take her back . emily : not exactly . it was connor that she wanted . nikolas : mary still thinks that i 'm her dead husband . felicia : so from mary 's point of view , she was acting out of love ? emily : her version of it , i guess . mary thinks that by killing me , she rescues connor . mac : was mary injured in the struggle ? emily : i -- i do n't know . i hit her , i knocked her down hard , but i do n't think that there was any serious damage . mac : well , then she 's still a threat .

inhabitants with whom dr. obrecht had information that i was keenly interested in ? robin : what other inhabitants ? victor : to start with ... my brother 's wife . victor : my dear sister - in - law , murdered in cold blood by none other than luke spencer . robin : i heard something about that . but did n't that happen well before obrecht turned up at the lab ? victor : when helena was shot down at the haunted star , her body was transported to cassadine island , where it could be preserved . robin : i 'm sorry ? victor : and for that , i have to thank my nephew , nikolas ' father ... stavros . anna : was luke attacked when he was golfing or fishing ?

tracy : is there someone else i can talk to ? anna : no , there 's no one else you can talk to , tracy . i just do n't find this very alarming . tracy : it 's alarming that luke vanished into thin air . at first i thought maybe he got scared . the first sound of rustling , and he turned tail . but he would have come back up to the house . anna : maybe he was embarrassed . tracy : anna ... it 's been 48 hours . i waited patiently to report him missing . and now i 'm here , and what if something terrible 's happened to him ? ! kiki : dante . dante : oh , kiki . kiki : can you get me in to see franco ? it 's really important . dante : you know , i 'm trying to figure out why you 'd want anything to do with that guy . be my guest . kiki : wait . h - he 's up here ? dante : yeah , he 's right in there . must be your lucky day . kiki : thank you . hey . franco : hey . what are you doing here ? kiki : well , i went to miscavige . franco : why ? kiki : i went to see heather . franco : i told you heather has nothing to do with this . kiki : i know . and you were right . i do n't know what i was expecting to find , but all i saw was heather locked safely away in her cell . nikolas : i do n't believe it . lulu : i 'm the baby wizard . nikolas : no , seriously , the second i put him into your arms , he calmed down . lulu : it 's all in the timing . right ?

tracy : this is not a laughing matter . anna : okay . well , tell me what happened . tracy : there was a raccoon down at the boathouse . luke went down to take care of it . when he did n't come back after an hour , i went down to look for him , and this is all i found . anna : he was kidnapped by a raccoon ? tracy : is there someone else i can talk to ? anna : no , there 's no one else you can talk to , tracy . i just do n't find this very alarming . tracy : it 's alarming that luke vanished into thin air . at first i thought maybe he got scared . the first sound of rustling , and he turned tail . but he would have come back up to the house . anna : maybe he was embarrassed . tracy : anna ... it 's been 48 hours . i waited patiently to report him missing . and now i 'm here , and what if something terrible 's happened to him ? ! kiki : dante . dante : oh , kiki . kiki : can you get me in to see franco ? it 's really important . dante : you know , i 'm trying to figure out why you 'd want anything to do with that guy . be my guest . kiki : wait . h - he 's up here ? dante : yeah , he 's right in there . must be your lucky day . kiki : thank you . hey . franco : hey . what are you doing here ? kiki : well , i went to miscavige . franco : why ? kiki : i went to see heather . franco : i told you heather has nothing to do with this . kiki : i know . and you were right . i do n't know what i was expecting to find , but all i saw was heather locked safely away in her cell . nikolas : i do n't believe it . lulu : i 'm the baby wizard . nikolas : no , seriously , the second i put him into your arms , he calmed down . lulu : it 's all in the timing . right ? it 's like when you 're struggling to open a jar , and then you finally hand it to someone else , and , poof , they get it on the first try . nikolas : because you loosened it up for them . lulu : exactly . see ? i think that little ben here just tired himself out . nikolas : no . no . this kid does n't tire ever . i 've literally watched him scream his lungs out before . it 's you . you got the magic touch . spencer : yeah . so scary . cameron : i know . nikolas : hey . what 's going on ? spencer : we have a chupacabra in the stables . heather : i was right . you are hideous . too bad those little boys chickened out . i was hoping they could help me . they just did n't have the fortitude . you know what they say . you want something done right , you just have to do it yourself . britt : wow . uh , well ... were you ... upset when you found out the baby was n't yours or relieved or ... patrick : little bit of both , i guess . britt : well , i -- for whatever it 's worth , which i 'm sure is n't much , i 'm sorry . patrick : it 's okay . it is what it is . dr. obrecht : `` it is what it is `` ? britt : what is your problem ? dr. obrecht : i never understand your americans and your laissez - faire attitude toward blood relations . in my family , an heir means everything , unless it 's a girl . britt : geez . thanks , mom . oh , sorry ! dr. obrecht . emma : that 's why i want to slay the chupacabra -- to show cameron and spencer that girls can do anything boys can do . sabrina : well , they can . emma : and because it hurts horses . i love horses . sabrina : [ chuckles ] i love horses , too . but , emma , sweetheart , this is all completely unnecessary , because there 's no such thing as a chupacabra . emma : yes , there is . i 'll show you . elizabeth : sabrina ? sabrina : elizabeth . elizabeth : we need to talk . i do n't feel comfortable keeping this from patrick . will you please reconsider telling him it 's his baby ? [ ringing ] [ cell phone ringing ] victor : oh , i 'm sorry , dr. drake . your wife is otherwise engaged . robin : what do you want ? what do two dead cassadines have anything to do with me ? victor : because they 're no more dead than you are . and you are going to bring them back . dr. obrecht : is there anyone competent at this hospital ? anyone ? britt : i will try not to take offense to that . dr. obrecht : please do . britt : let 's back up for one minute . was that necessary ? dr. obrecht : elaborate . britt : rubbing patrick 's nose in the fact that he 's lost another baby . dr. obrecht : he did n't seem too broken up over it . britt : like he 'd give you the satisfaction . dr. obrecht : i would think you 'd be grateful , britta . after all , there 's a much more salacious baby story i could have told him . that your son is actually dante and lulu 's . hmm . nikolas : wait , hold on . s - slow down for a second . okay , a knife , a lady , a chupacabra . none of this makes any sense . spencer : i swear , dad . you have to see for yourself . please . cameron : we 're not making it up . lulu : go . the hupacada `` awaits . spencer : chupacabra . lulu : right . sorry . nikolas : y - you 'll be okay here with ben ? lulu : the baby wizard . come on . nikolas : right . of course . uh , all right , in the meantime , you two go into the kitchen . i 'm sure alfred can rustle up a snack for you . let 's go . lulu : well , that is a lot of excitement for one day , right , buddy ? hey . what 's this ? nikolas : hello ? anyone in here ? [ horse whinnies ] anna : oh , tracy , i do n't mean to make light of this , but it just seems like it 's par for the course as far as luke is concerned . tracy : all right . you 're right . he has been known to up and disappear at times , but that was his old course , not a new course . luke would never leave without letting me know . anna : maybe he had a relapse . tracy : or maybe something terrible has happened to him . tell me , would you be this cavalier if we were talking about duke ? franco : you saw heather ... alive and well , in the flesh ? kiki : yeah , i lied to get in . she 's not allowed visitors , so i told them that i was her granddaughter and that you were my father . franco : what did she say ? did you speak to her ? kiki : no . she 's in a straitjacket . she 's in a catatonic state . she has n't even spoken for months . anna : let 's just leave duke out of this . tracy : i would be glad to ! i would much prefer to focus on luke and the fact that he 's been missing for two days without so much as a text telling me goodbye . kiki : i 'm so , so sorry , franco . i wanted to prove that heather has been the one framing you this whole time . but she has n't . she 's been locked up . and even if she was n't , she 's in no condition to cause any trouble . anna : i understand that you 're worried . tracy : do you , now ? anna : yes , i do . firstly , this is luke we 're talking about , and he 's nothing if not resourceful . tracy : oh , thank you for that meaningless platitude . that did n't help at all . anna : oh , god . and secondly , luke has a history of doing this , of taking off at a minute 's notice , and so probably he 's off on a scam somewhere or an adventure and he just has n't had time to call you or text you . have you checked your bank balance ? has there been an unexpected withdrawal ? tracy : actually , whenever luke disappears , the first thing i do is check my account balances , and , no , he has not taken a dime ! anna : then he 's traveling on his own dime , tracy . tracy : or maybe , just maybe , you do not comprehend how our relationship has evolved since i saved his life on the cassadine island , not you , miss super spy , but me ! maybe , just maybe , you do n't understand that i , i , have more insight into luke spencer than you do . anna : you have got to calm down . please ! wherever luke is , he 'll turn up . he always does .Summarize.[/INST]anna and dante take franco into an interview room and show him the bloody knife with his fingerprints on it . he realizes that it is the knife that he stabbed heather with and refuses to talk to them without a lawyer . kiki goes to the miscavige institute to see heather webber . she sees a person with blonde hair in a straitjacket with her back to the door . the orderly says heather has been in a catatonic state since franco 's art show . kiki goes to the police station and reports to franco that she saw his mother safely locked up in miscavige . tracy goes to the police station to report luke missing . anna does n't take her seriously . luke is the person in the straitjacket and blonde wig at miscavige .</s> | 924 |
steffy : i 'm cautiously optimistic . hope : well , do you believe that thomas has really moved on ? steffy : from what zoe says , looks like she and thomas are getting pretty serious . hope : he did bring her to christmas . steffy : yeah , that 's a big deal . my brother usually keeps his love life on the down low . hope : yeah , i know . thomas has always been pretty mysterious . but that makes me wonder . steffy : if it 's real , you mean . yeah , i was wondering that myself . i know liam was , too . hope : well , we all have , steffy . i mean , my mom and ridge are getting a divorce because of the issues with thomas . steffy : look ... nothing can make up for his lies about beth . and i know that pain will stay with us forever . but i think this experience humbled him . he was out of control , and he became obsessed with creating this fantasy life with you . but he had a reality check . and he 's happy now . and he 's starting this relationship with zoe . so i do n't think he 's a problem to you . liam : gravesite ? you 're gon na bring hope to my gravesite ? [ scoffing ] boy , you are threatening me in the twisted way only you can . thomas : it 's just like you to get defensive . you ca n't stand being called out , can you ? liam : called out for what , thomas ? i 've never done a damn thing to you . thomas : maybe not , but how about my sister ? liam : steffy and i are good . thomas : when was the last time you saw kelly ? liam : excuse me ? thomas : kelly . you know , your daughter , the one living alone with my sister . liam : do not use my daughter to take the spotlight off your obsession with hope . thomas : my obsession with hope ? i 'm with zoe , man . i moved on . liam : yes , i know . that 's the official story . thomas : think whatever you want . you know what ? does n't matter , because right now , i 'm putting you on notice . i will never , ever stop defending my sister or hope or those kids . so get used to it , okay ? get used to me . hope and i are co - parenting douglas together , so i will always be a part of her life . and there is nothing -- and liam ? look at me . i repeat , nothing , that you can do about it . collin : i can bring some other chiffons next time if these are n't what you 're looking for . steffy : oh , that 's very kind , collin , but these are great . collin : i aim to please . my family 's been supplying forrester for over 30 years . i want to make sure you 're happy . steffy : thank you . i just have to show them to my designer , make her understand what i 'm going for . collin : rumor has it that , uh , you 're working with sally spectra . i , uh , never thought i 'd hear the day that a spectra would work at forrester . steffy : [ chuckles ] collin : love to hear how that came about . maybe over drinks sometime ?

it sounded urgent . liam : uh , no , no . it 's not okay . he 's full of it , hope . hope : what ? liam : thomas . he 's -- he 's faking all of this . the apology tour , the new girlfriend , it 's -- it 's a ruse , okay ? it 's still the old thomas inside of him , and he 's still a psychopath , and now i know for a fact he has n't changed . zoe : thanks again , steffy , for giving me my job back . steffy : you do n't have to keep thanking me . you 've proven to be a valuable member of the team . is n't that right , thomas ? thomas : absolutely . steffy : so what 's going on here ? thomas : do n't worry . we wo n't let it affect our work . steffy : that does n't concern me , but now that you mention it . zoe : well , i would n't want what 's happening between us to get in the way of my job , so ... thomas : that 's right , and , uh , that 's -- that 's what we 're doing , we 're just looking forward to the future . so no worries . steffy : and what does that future look like ? thomas : here comes twenty questions . steffy : twenty ? more like a hundred . thomas : ah , god , we 're gon na be here all day . steffy : hey , i got time . thomas : no , you don't . you got a line to create , a showdown breathing down your neck , and your entire career hanging in the balance . steffy : do n't try to change the subject . i 'm your sister , i 'm allowed to be nosy . thomas : that 's the understatement of the year . steffy : what ? zoe : okay , so this is what it 's like to have a sibling . thomas : this is n't even the worst of it . she used to listen to my phone calls when we were little . steffy : ah , first of all , that was phoebe 's idea . thomas : yeah , right . steffy : you could have told us what was going on , you did n't have to be so sneaky . thomas : maybe i did n't want you to know all of my business when we were kids , but , with zoe it 's different . like i told dad and grandad , i want everyone to know how important she is to me . steffy : so are you two moving in together ? zoe : uh , no , i mean , we have n't even talked about that . steffy : well , thomas mentioned getting his own place , so ... thomas : and leave grandad 's , and the sparkling pool and the tennis courts ? the in - house gym , nightly chef ? you know , maybe i could give it all up for zoe . zoe : [ laughs ] good answer . steffy : oh , very smooth . thomas : well , you know , douglas might need a little bit of coaxing , but he 's always up for an adventure . and i do n't mean to sound cheesy , but i like what 's happening here and it came at just the right time . [ both chuckle ] steffy : well , you two make a ridiculously gorgeous couple . it 's nice to see . really happy you 're getting on with your life . liam : thomas is only pretending to be over you . hope : okay , but what makes you say that ? liam : because i just saw him and he 's a completely different person when it 's the two of us . hope : what were you doing with thomas alone ? liam : i -- i went to ... talk to him . hope : you know that 's not a good idea , liam , the two of you together . liam : yeah , yeah , well , clearly you 're right , because he 's a terrible human being . hope : all right , so what did he say ? liam : [ chuckles ] what did he say ? what did n't he say ? he called me weak and pathetic . he called me a coward . he said i was self - righteous . he said i 'd -- i 'd amount to nothing without my father . hope : he said all that ? liam : oh , yeah , that 's the tip of the iceberg , man . he -- he laid into me as a dad . he said i should still be living with steffy and kelly . hope : i thought he was over all of that . liam : clearly , he 's not . but that -- it 's not even about that . like , he can insult me all he wants . i do n't care about that . it 's -- it 's the rage , hope . it 's the rage percolating underneath . he gets this look in his eyes and it 's -- it 's -- it 's e -- it 's evil , i 'm sorry . i do n't know how else to describe it . he 's a lunatic , and he has insinuated himself into every aspect of your life . hope : i do n't even know what to say . i 'm so -- i 'm sorry . i really thought that he was changing , but then i hear all this , and ... liam : yeah . well , after he finished telling me that he was going to rule the kingdom someday , he said i was , quote , `` looking into the eyes of my executioner . `` and that he could n't wait to bring you and steffy and the kids to my gravesite . hope : so thomas threatened you ? liam : it 's what i 've been saying , hope . he 's not better . if anything , he 's worse . hope : thomas swore that he was making changes , that he was trying to better his life . liam : i -- yeah , i know , i know . that is what he wants everyone to believe . it 's just not true . he 's -- he 's the same dangerous guy , and i 'm -- and i 'm sorry , because i know this is like the last thing you wanted to hear . hope : no , i just ca n't believe that i actually thought he was working on himself . liam : trust me , i want to believe that , because i do n't want to spend the rest of my life worrying about your safety , or douglas 's safety for that matter , but honestly , i think he 's even more unhinged than i realized . hope : what about , zoe , though , their relationship ? liam : i mean , you ask me , it 's -- it 's just another smoke screen . hope : i do n't know , liam , it seems real to me . liam : well , who knows ? maybe for some small part of him that 's actually true . just think about how quickly they became a thing . i mean , all of a sudden , out of nowhere , he invites her to christmas , he puts on this big , charming , dramatic show . it is designed to make ridge and steffy think that everything is fine , to make your mom look bad because she even suggested he get treatment , and finally , to make you lower your guard . hope : this is insane . i can not believe i gave him the benefit of the doubt . liam : well , thomas wants you to think that he 's over you and he 's into zoe now , but it -- it is a strategy , okay ? it 's a strategy . he 's still obsessed with you . he told me he still believes that your future is with him and not me . hope : how can someone be so deceptive and delusional ? how can he treat people this way , the way he 's disrespected you , our relationship , our family ? it has to stop , liam . i am done with the threats and the lies and ... i 'm going to talk to him . liam : okay , no , no , wait , wait , wait , hold on a second . i -- i -- i do n't actually want you to go confront him . hope : no , liam , i have to do this . i have to face thomas myself . steffy : we have n't set a date for the showdown yet . still figuring out what line you 're modeling for . zoe : honestly , i am cool with whatever . so , do you feel like you 're ready ? steffy : not yet , but , we 'll get there . zoe : you know , i - i 'm sure sally 's doing a great job for you , but , wow , thomas 's designs , they are -- steffy : [ laughs ] not that you 're biased or anything . zoe : no , not at all . steffy : i think my brother likes you as much as you like him . zoe : i really hope so . steffy : i was worried at first , but seeing the two of you together ... i think you 're right . i think he 's a changed man . zoe : yeah . i mean , thomas , he 's been really focused on the line , and not much else these days . steffy : except you . zoe : well , i do n't really mind that . [ chuckles ] steffy : i 'm still surprised hope agreed to have my brother design for her line . zoe : well , she does need him to win the showdown . steffy : yeah , she never would have agreed if the stakes were n't so high . and if you were n't in the picture . i 'd be worried my brother would be still obsessed with hope . thomas : you 're right , it is a bit shorter , and we took the bodice in about a quarter inch . carmen : yeah , i like that it 's tighter in the waist . thomas : yeah , it 's beautiful . actually , i -- i really think hope 's gon na like it . hope : hello . thomas : hey , if it is n't our fearless leader . i was just making some final adjustments to this piece . you have any -- anything you want to make , any changes ? hope : uh ... may i ? i do n't really like how it 's bunching here , so maybe we take that in , and ... i think maybe just a few more pleats in the back . thomas : funny , i was thinking the exact same thing . great minds . thanks , carmen . hope : thank you . thomas : this is -- this is turning out a whole lot better than i expected . every -- every piece , every design , and we 're not even finished with them yet , and , uh -- let me guess -- liam told you about our conversation . i 'm leah and that 's me long before [ knocking ] steffy : knock knock . liam : steffy . did n't know you were coming . steffy : just wanted to see you in your natural habitat . liam : ha ha . well , here i am . steffy : i actually thought we should , uh , continue the conversation about thomas . liam : [ sighs ] steffy : i just saw him with zoe , and ... i 'm starting to feel bad about doubting my brother . liam : yeah , do n't feel bad . steffy : liam , what he did was in the past and i need to make peace with that . liam : yeah , you really do n't need to do any of that . steffy : liam , i 'm doing it for myself , and i really believe thomas is making some healthy changes . liam : i -- i know , i get it , i know how badly you want that to be true , but it 's not . steffy : you 've made it clear how you feel about my brother . i get it . liam : yeah , about that . um , remember everything i said before ? multiply it by a thousand . steffy : did something happen ? liam : uh , well , after i saw you , i went to thomas to tell him i was n't buying the whole zoe schtick , and he did n't really appreciate that . he called me every name in the book . steffy : oh , no . liam : yeah , and now i 'm even more concerned that hope is in jeopardy . steffy : i told you , i think it 's the real deal between him and zoe . liam : stef , you don't ... [ chuckles ] you do n't understand . i just saw a side of thomas that even i did n't know existed . we 're talking raw venom . the guy even threatened me . steffy : what did he say ? liam : basically that he ca n't wait to see me dead . thomas : i knew liam would come running to you . hope : oh , so it 's true . you did have an argument . thomas : no . look , i was here working , minding my own business and he barged in all amped up calling me a liar . hope : and you lost your temper . thomas : no . i tried to explain to him that i 'm not the same person that i used to be , but he would n't hear it , okay ? he called me a liar and he said that i was manipulating . he said that i was using zoe to try and take you away from him . he 's paranoid , hope . he said i had everyone fooled including you . hope : and is he right ? thomas : seriously ? hope : no , because now , thomas , i 'm questioning everything you 've been claiming , your relationship with zoe , that you 've really moved on from the past . thomas : hope , you know what -- hope : no , liam told me the awful things you said to him , the threats that you made . thomas : sounds like he might be overreacting . hope : oh . okay , well , what about the gravesite ? that you were going to bring me and steffy and our children to his grave ? thomas : that 's just something said in the heat of the moment . hope : yeah , well , that sounds like a threat , - does n't it , thomas ? thomas : okay , look , i 'm not going to take that back . i 'm not . i 'm not gon na apologize to him . look , if he 's threatened by my looking out for my sister , and you , and the children , well , that 's his problem , not mine . hope : but you were being aggressive , thomas , and that is what worries me . thomas : i wo n't back down to him . but hope , i 'm telling you , i -- i 'm not making a play for you , okay ? liam is doing his same old dance . he is living with you , no commitment , no wedding date . he 's stringing you along . and now , i 'm more concerned , because you are co - parenting douglas with me , so i 'm concerned about your happiness . hope : yeah , well , do n't be . i do n't need your concern . thomas : just think about it . christmastime , it came and went , and ... nothing . no -- no proposal , no wedding ring , and i think we both know why . hope : you do not know anything about my relationship . thomas : i 'm not talking about your relationship , i 'm talking about steffy . liam is still in love with her . and i think that 's why he 's so threatened by me . he hates -- he hates that i 'm calling him out for things that he does n't want to face . hope : well , we all know that you want liam and steffy together , that has been clear for some time . thomas : okay . hope ... [ sighs ] i 'm not saying that liam does n't love you , but he does care for someone else . he has a child with steffy , and they will be connected forever . liam is still in love with my sister . do you really want to share liam with steffy for the rest of your life ? | at forrester , hope and steffy discuss whether thomas has truly changed and moved on with zoe . liam and thomas continue to argue . thomas concludes that he 'll be in hope 's life forever , and there 's nothing liam can do about it . later , a handsome man named collin , whose family supplies fabric for forrester , chats with steffy and then asks her out ( with zoe nearby ) . steffy is clearly flattered but turns him down . steffy tells zoe that she can keep her job , since she spied on thomas like she asked . thomas comes in , so he and zoe talk about their relationship in an awkward conversation with steffy . steffy is happy for them . she tells zoe privately that she thinks thomas likes her a lot . | <s>[INST] steffy : i 'm cautiously optimistic . hope : well , do you believe that thomas has really moved on ? steffy : from what zoe says , looks like she and thomas are getting pretty serious . hope : he did bring her to christmas . steffy : yeah , that 's a big deal . my brother usually keeps his love life on the down low . hope : yeah , i know . thomas has always been pretty mysterious . but that makes me wonder . steffy : if it 's real , you mean . yeah , i was wondering that myself . i know liam was , too . hope : well , we all have , steffy . i mean , my mom and ridge are getting a divorce because of the issues with thomas . steffy : look ... nothing can make up for his lies about beth . and i know that pain will stay with us forever . but i think this experience humbled him . he was out of control , and he became obsessed with creating this fantasy life with you . but he had a reality check . and he 's happy now . and he 's starting this relationship with zoe . so i do n't think he 's a problem to you . liam : gravesite ? you 're gon na bring hope to my gravesite ?

thomas : absolutely . steffy : so what 's going on here ? thomas : do n't worry . we wo n't let it affect our work . steffy : that does n't concern me , but now that you mention it . zoe : well , i would n't want what 's happening between us to get in the way of my job , so ... thomas : that 's right , and , uh , that 's -- that 's what we 're doing , we 're just looking forward to the future . so no worries . steffy : and what does that future look like ? thomas : here comes twenty questions . steffy : twenty ? more like a hundred . thomas : ah , god , we 're gon na be here all day . steffy : hey , i got time . thomas : no , you don't . you got a line to create , a showdown breathing down your neck , and your entire career hanging in the balance . steffy : do n't try to change the subject . i 'm your sister , i 'm allowed to be nosy . thomas : that 's the understatement of the year . steffy : what ? zoe : okay , so this is what it 's like to have a sibling . thomas : this is n't even the worst of it . she used to listen to my phone calls when we were little . steffy : ah , first of all , that was phoebe 's idea . thomas : yeah , right . steffy : you could have told us what was going on , you did n't have to be so sneaky . thomas : maybe i did n't want you to know all of my business when we were kids , but , with zoe it 's different . like i told dad and grandad , i want everyone to know how important she is to me . steffy : so are you two moving in together ? zoe : uh , no , i mean , we have n't even talked about that . steffy : well , thomas mentioned getting his own place , so ... thomas : and leave grandad 's , and the sparkling pool and the tennis courts ? the in - house gym , nightly chef ? you know , maybe i could give it all up for zoe . zoe : [ laughs ] good answer . steffy : oh , very smooth . thomas : well , you know , douglas might need a little bit of coaxing , but he 's always up for an adventure . and i do n't mean to sound cheesy , but i like what 's happening here and it came at just the right time . [ both chuckle ] steffy : well , you two make a ridiculously gorgeous couple . it 's nice to see . really happy you 're getting on with your life . liam : thomas is only pretending to be over you . hope : okay , but what makes you say that ? liam : because i just saw him and he 's a completely different person when it 's the two of us . hope : what were you doing with thomas alone ? liam : i -- i went to ... talk to him . hope : you know that 's not a good idea , liam , the two of you together . liam : yeah , yeah , well , clearly you 're right , because he 's a terrible human being . hope : all right , so what did he say ? liam : [ chuckles ] what did he say ? what did n't he say ? he called me weak and pathetic . he called me a coward . he said i was self - righteous . he said i 'd -- i 'd amount to nothing without my father . hope : he said all that ? liam : oh , yeah , that 's the tip of the iceberg , man . he -- he laid into me as a dad . he said i should still be living with steffy and kelly . hope : i thought he was over all of that . liam : clearly , he 's not . but that -- it 's not even about that . like , he can insult me all he wants . i do n't care about that . it 's -- it 's the rage , hope . it 's the rage percolating underneath . he gets this look in his eyes and it 's -- it 's -- it 's e -- it 's evil , i 'm sorry . i do n't know how else to describe it . he 's a lunatic , and he has insinuated himself into every aspect of your life . hope : i do n't even know what to say . i 'm so -- i 'm sorry . i really thought that he was changing , but then i hear all this , and ... liam : yeah . well , after he finished telling me that he was going to rule the kingdom someday , he said i was , quote , `` looking into the eyes of my executioner . `` and that he could n't wait to bring you and steffy and the kids to my gravesite . hope : so thomas threatened you ? liam : it 's what i 've been saying , hope . he 's not better . if anything , he 's worse . hope : thomas swore that he was making changes , that he was trying to better his life . liam : i -- yeah , i know , i know . that is what he wants everyone to believe . it 's just not true . he 's -- he 's the same dangerous guy , and i 'm -- and i 'm sorry , because i know this is like the last thing you wanted to hear . hope : no , i just ca n't believe that i actually thought he was working on himself . liam : trust me , i want to believe that , because i do n't want to spend the rest of my life worrying about your safety , or douglas 's safety for that matter , but honestly , i think he 's even more unhinged than i realized . hope : what about , zoe , though , their relationship ? liam : i mean , you ask me , it 's -- it 's just another smoke screen . hope : i do n't know , liam , it seems real to me . liam : well , who knows ? maybe for some small part of him that 's actually true . just think about how quickly they became a thing . i mean , all of a sudden , out of nowhere , he invites her to christmas , he puts on this big , charming , dramatic show . it is designed to make ridge and steffy think that everything is fine , to make your mom look bad because she even suggested he get treatment , and finally , to make you lower your guard . hope : this is insane . i can not believe i gave him the benefit of the doubt . liam : well , thomas wants you to think that he 's over you and he 's into zoe now , but it -- it is a strategy , okay ? it 's a strategy . he 's still obsessed with you . he told me he still believes that your future is with him and not me . hope : how can someone be so deceptive and delusional ? how can he treat people this way , the way he 's disrespected you , our relationship , our family ? it has to stop , liam . i am done with the threats and the lies and ... i 'm going to talk to him . liam : okay , no , no , wait , wait , wait , hold on a second . i -- i -- i do n't actually want you to go confront him . hope : no , liam , i have to do this . i have to face thomas myself . steffy : we have n't set a date for the showdown yet . still figuring out what line you 're modeling for . zoe : honestly , i am cool with whatever . so , do you feel like you 're ready ? steffy : not yet , but , we 'll get there . zoe : you know , i - i 'm sure sally 's doing a great job for you , but , wow , thomas 's designs , they are -- steffy : [ laughs ] not that you 're biased or anything . zoe : no , not at all . steffy : i think my brother likes you as much as you like him . zoe : i really hope so . steffy : i was worried at first , but seeing the two of you together ... i think you 're right . i think he 's a changed man . zoe : yeah . i mean , thomas , he 's been really focused on the line , and not much else these days . steffy : except you . zoe : well , i do n't really mind that . [ chuckles ] steffy : i 'm still surprised hope agreed to have my brother design for her line . zoe : well , she does need him to win the showdown . steffy : yeah , she never would have agreed if the stakes were n't so high . and if you were n't in the picture . i 'd be worried my brother would be still obsessed with hope . thomas : you 're right , it is a bit shorter , and we took the bodice in about a quarter inch . carmen : yeah , i like that it 's tighter in the waist . thomas : yeah , it 's beautiful . actually , i -- i really think hope 's gon na like it . hope : hello . thomas : hey , if it is n't our fearless leader . i was just making some final adjustments to this piece . you have any -- anything you want to make , any changes ? hope : uh ... may i ? i do n't really like how it 's bunching here , so maybe we take that in , and ... i think maybe just a few more pleats in the back . thomas : funny , i was thinking the exact same thing . great minds . thanks , carmen . hope : thank you . thomas : this is -- this is turning out a whole lot better than i expected . every -- every piece , every design , and we 're not even finished with them yet , and , uh -- let me guess -- liam told you about our conversation . i 'm leah and that 's me long before [ knocking ] steffy : knock knock . liam : steffy . did n't know you were coming . steffy : just wanted to see you in your natural habitat . liam : ha ha . well , here i am . steffy : i actually thought we should , uh , continue the conversation about thomas . liam : [ sighs ] steffy : i just saw him with zoe , and ... i 'm starting to feel bad about doubting my brother . liam : yeah , do n't feel bad . steffy : liam , what he did was in the past and i need to make peace with that . liam : yeah , you really do n't need to do any of that . steffy : liam , i 'm doing it for myself , and i really believe thomas is making some healthy changes . liam : i -- i know , i get it , i know how badly you want that to be true , but it 's not . steffy : you 've made it clear how you feel about my brother . i get it . liam : yeah , about that . um , remember everything i said before ? multiply it by a thousand . steffy : did something happen ? liam : uh , well , after i saw you , i went to thomas to tell him i was n't buying the whole zoe schtick , and he did n't really appreciate that . he called me every name in the book . steffy : oh , no . liam : yeah , and now i 'm even more concerned that hope is in jeopardy . steffy : i told you , i think it 's the real deal between him and zoe . liam : stef , you don't ... [ chuckles ] you do n't understand . i just saw a side of thomas that even i did n't know existed . we 're talking raw venom . the guy even threatened me . steffy : what did he say ? liam : basically that he ca n't wait to see me dead . thomas : i knew liam would come running to you . hope : oh , so it 's true . you did have an argument . thomas : no . look , i was here working , minding my own business and he barged in all amped up calling me a liar . hope : and you lost your temper . thomas : no . i tried to explain to him that i 'm not the same person that i used to be , but he would n't hear it , okay ? he called me a liar and he said that i was manipulating . he said that i was using zoe to try and take you away from him . he 's paranoid , hope . he said i had everyone fooled including you . hope : and is he right ? thomas : seriously ? hope : no , because now , thomas , i 'm questioning everything you 've been claiming , your relationship with zoe , that you 've really moved on from the past . thomas : hope , you know what -- hope : no , liam told me the awful things you said to him , the threats that you made . thomas : sounds like he might be overreacting . hope : oh . okay , well , what about the gravesite ? that you were going to bring me and steffy and our children to his grave ? thomas : that 's just something said in the heat of the moment . hope : yeah , well , that sounds like a threat , - does n't it , thomas ? thomas : okay , look , i 'm not going to take that back . i 'm not . i 'm not gon na apologize to him . look , if he 's threatened by my looking out for my sister , and you , and the children , well , that 's his problem , not mine . hope : but you were being aggressive , thomas , and that is what worries me . thomas : i wo n't back down to him . but hope , i 'm telling you , i -- i 'm not making a play for you , okay ? liam is doing his same old dance . he is living with you , no commitment , no wedding date . he 's stringing you along . and now , i 'm more concerned , because you are co - parenting douglas with me , so i 'm concerned about your happiness . hope : yeah , well , do n't be . i do n't need your concern . thomas : just think about it . christmastime , it came and went , and ... nothing . no -- no proposal , no wedding ring , and i think we both know why . hope : you do not know anything about my relationship . thomas : i 'm not talking about your relationship , i 'm talking about steffy . liam is still in love with her . and i think that 's why he 's so threatened by me . he hates -- he hates that i 'm calling him out for things that he does n't want to face . hope : well , we all know that you want liam and steffy together , that has been clear for some time . thomas : okay . hope ... [ sighs ] i 'm not saying that liam does n't love you , but he does care for someone else . he has a child with steffy , and they will be connected forever . liam is still in love with my sister . do you really want to share liam with steffy for the rest of your life ?Summarize.[/INST]at forrester , hope and steffy discuss whether thomas has truly changed and moved on with zoe . liam and thomas continue to argue . thomas concludes that he 'll be in hope 's life forever , and there 's nothing liam can do about it . later , a handsome man named collin , whose family supplies fabric for forrester , chats with steffy and then asks her out ( with zoe nearby ) . steffy is clearly flattered but turns him down . steffy tells zoe that she can keep her job , since she spied on thomas like she asked . thomas comes in , so he and zoe talk about their relationship in an awkward conversation with steffy . steffy is happy for them . she tells zoe privately that she thinks thomas likes her a lot .</s> | 3,171 |

[ chuckles ] ivy : [ chuckles ] ridge : she is beautiful . bill : tell me this is the product of your sick imagination . ridge : no , she wanted to pose for it . bill : come on . this is -- this is my niece , all right ? it 's disgusting . ridge : mm . i will give her your review . bill : do that . in the meantime , let 's talk about why i 'm here . liam 's little plan ? ridge : the hostile takeover , yes . well , it ca n't happen without steffy . we do n't have enough stock . bill : well , come up with something else before rick guts the place . ridge : i do n't think i want to . bill : what are you talking -- oh . okay . wait a minute . what -- is this a daddy issue , the same daddy who took your job from you ? ridge : [ sighs ] i think daddy 's gon na give me that job after rick 's year of infamy . bill : if there 's still a company left . ridge : the other thing is , i do n't necessarily want to be in bed with you . bill : keep your little fantasies to yourself , all right , pal ? ridge : [ laughs ] bill : and besides , i think you 've got that covered with my niece , do n't you ? ridge : all right . well , if you talk to your son , if he wants to do something else , i 'll talk to him about it . but i think right now , he 's otherwise occupied . ivy : thank you . liam : mm - hmm . this too shall pass . ivy : [ scoffs ] yes , and until then ... liam : spend as little time at the office as possible . ivy : liam , how do i do that ? i work there . liam : you ... set up shop here ? ivy : i 'm s -- have you seen the way i work ? clutter takes on a whole different meaning . liam : i - i - i like clutter . i 'm good with clutter . ivy : really ? liam : yeah . ivy : oh , you do ? can you just scan the room and point out exactly where all the clutter is ? liam : no , no . that 's because i knew you were gon na show up . if you were n't ... this would be here . ivy : [ laughs ] liam : [ grunts ] listen , we 'll deal with rick . we will . ivy : how ? seriously , how , liam ? liam : [ sighs ] ivy : you know what ? why do n't you just tell me about this evening you have planned for me ? hmm ? nicole : my sister really lucked out . rick : it was n't luck , nicole . this woman is everything that she appears to be . i know her like i 've never known anyone . maya : so , how was the rest of your day ? rick : hmm . i had a talk with ivy . maya : what about ? rick : her jewelry line . it 's not exactly up to speed . maya : you do n't like it ? rick : i mean , she 's definitely talented , but she 's still a bit green . besides , i do n't like her attitude ... especially when it comes to you . ivy : i 'm waiting . liam : so am i . ivy : what are you waiting for ? liam : nothing . ivy : well , i 'm waiting for my surprise . liam : yeah , it 's not a big deal . ivy : is it a ferrari ? 'cause i 've always really wanted one . liam : it is not a ferrari . ivy : ugh . liam : mm . ivy : but you did say you have a surprise for us , right ? liam : yeah , i did . i -- it 's just -- [ laughs ] it 's a little decompression thing , help you get over your day . ivy : ugh . my day . liam : which is over , by the way . ivy : i know , i know . i just -- i ca n't believe that rick and i , we actually used to be friends . he trusted me , you know ? and then ... liam : then ... he lost caroline to ridge . ivy : mm - hmm . [ knock on door ] liam : [ gasps ] surprise time ! ivy : [ giggles ] bill : so , how much ? ridge : it 's not for sale . bill : everything 's for sale . ridge : [ chuckles ] you really want it out of here , do n't you ? bill : yeah , i do . and i want her out of here , as far away from you as possible . ridge : bill , she 's a free agent , fresh off a divorce . bill : takes six months . that 's what that waiting period is for . people change their minds . ridge : well , uh , rick has lost his mind , so he 's out of the picture . bill : what is it with you forresters , anyway , having to have portraits hanging all over the place of the women you 're involved with ? ridge : makes them immortal , bill . you do n't think she deserves that ? bill : i think she deserves to be in a healthy relationship with a guy who has his head on straight . and that leaves out you and rick . ridge : what is it with you spencers ? i just told you . rick is out of the picture . he 's with maya now . nicole : you and ivy do n't get along ? maya : i do n't like the way she treats rick . rick : i do n't like the way she treats you . ivy does n't accept her . nicole : does she have an interest in you ? [ both chuckle ] rick : well , of course not . she 's my cousin . nicole : oh . so , what 's the problem ? maya : she does n't have a problem , nicole . she 's just difficult . nicole : why ? i mean , i do n't know her that well , but she did n't seem unreasonable to me . rick : ivy thinks your sister 's a gold digger , that she 's pretending to be something she 's not . she 's been down on our relationship ever since i broke things off with caroline . nicole : so she 's a caroline supporter . maya : must we talk about this ? rick : no , ridge and caroline are together now . but the irony is , is that caroline was the one who was keeping secrets , not maya . nicole : right . maya 's been totally up - front . rick : yeah , absolutely . nicole : maybe i should talk to her . maya : nicole , no . rick : well , if you think it would help , tell her what you know . nicole : yes , what i know -- that maya would never take advantage of you . she would never lie or deceive you . rick : yeah , well , anything you could put on the table would be much appreciated . maya : i 'd prefer that you did n't . rick : why ? maya : nicole , no . i - i do n't want to make our personal life an issue . if ivy is n't doing her job , fine . fire her . but nicole should not be defending our relationship . nicole , if you would n't mind , i 'd like some time alone with rick . nicole : sure . no problem . [ door closes ] maya : rick ... there 's something i need to tell you . liam : are you hungry ? ivy : [ chuckles ] i am now . liam : huh ? ivy : this looks amazing . liam : my lady . ivy : liam ... [ chuckles ] mm . hey . liam : yeah . ivy : to ... to the end of a dreadful day ... liam : [ chuckles ] ivy : ... made perfect by the man i love . to you , liam . ridge : got to relax , bill . we 're just getting to know each other , spending some time together , you know ? bill : right . so , besides ... sketching , what is it you two have in common ? ridge : no , that 's it . that 's all we have in common . everything else , i ca n't really explain to someone like you . but you did see the collection we put together ? bill : yeah , yeah ! it 's , you know -- it 's blowing out . they ca n't keep it in stock . the numbers are great . besides that ... you two are totally different . now , i 'm sure you are romanticizing it in your head , and you 're dragging caroline right along with you , but -- look . the bottom line is that if rick did n't go off the deep end , they 're simply better suited . ridge : you 're still on rick , huh ? he 's with maya now . bill : yeah , do n't get me started on that one . ridge : she is a piece of work , huh ? bill : she has too much damn influence over rick and that company . ridge : that company ? this company ? you made an investment . it 's paying off . what do you care ? bill : we both know the bubble is about to burst at forrester , and maya has a lot to do with it , okay ? there 's a lot more to that woman than meets the eye . what you see is definitely not what you get with maya avant . and now she 's got a sister in the mix ? maya : thank you . rick : something 's going on with your sister . [ sighs ] it seems pretty serious . maya : it is . rick : well , you can tell me . you 've been here for me . i want to be here for you , too . maya : i 'm not perfect , rick . rick : yeah , well , who the hell is ? we 've all done things we regret . maya : i 'm not saying i regret anything that i 've done . rick : well , that 's a good thing , is n't it ? maya : it was good for me . rick : we talking about something specific ? maya : everything i am ... the woman who you see sitting in front of you ... now , i do n't regret anything that i 've done to become this woman . rick : i would n't , either . i would n't want you any other way than the way that you are . now , i guarantee whatever is going on between you and your sister , it 's not as heavy as you think it is . maya : it should n't be , rick , but ... for a lot of reasons , it is . rick : and nicole is making those reasons an issue ? you can tell me ... whatever it is . you 've always been up - front with me . you 've always been honest . so what is it ? ivy : mm . liam : oh , me ? ivy : yes . you know , you 're a very good cook , liam spencer . liam : thank you . well , i 'm good on the phone , anyway . ivy : [ chuckles ] well , you definitely turned my day around . liam : that is the idea . ivy : i kind of hope tomorrow 's as bad as today so that it can end like this . liam : [ laughs ] yeah , man . bring it . ivy : [ chuckles ] well , i have a feeling i have a few more days like this coming , now that rick 's head of the ship . liam : [ scoffs ] yeah , i know . [ chuckles ] well , i mean , you could always kiss up to maya . ivy : oh . do you think they have nights like this ? liam : what , with aly serving them dessert in bed ? ivy : you know , sometimes , i think that 's the only reason they have us around . liam : i know . it 's sick . it 's -- it 's sick . ivy : mm . liam : but , yeah . do you think they 're in love like us ? ivy : no , i do n't think anyone is like us . but ... do i think they 're committed to each other ? yeah , i do . liam : yeah ? ivy : mm - hmm . liam : so you think maya 's more than just a rebound for rick ? ivy : well , that 's exactly what i thought at first . i mean , i even told rick that , which was probably a mistake . liam : [ sighs ] ouch . ivy : yeah . liam : so what do you think now ? ivy : well , now , i mean , they 're stuck together like glue . maya has rick exactly where she wants him . and i ca n't imagine what would have to happen for rick to get rid of her . liam : what about that sister of hers ? ivy : nicole ? liam : yeah . ivy : yeah , i ca n't work those two out . liam : w - why ? ivy : it 's just , they 're not very sisterly , you know ? i mean , they live together in the same house . but it just seems to be creating problems for maya . and why is anyone 's guess . rick : believe me , i know what it 's like to have a sibling that you ca n't stand . maya : it 's not that i ca n't stand nicole . rick : yeah , well , you have n't been around her long enough for that . so where 's all this angst coming from ? maya : it 's so personal , rick . rick : it usually is with sisters . damn , you know , i -- i really hoped this would work . i wanted a bonding experience for you and your sister . maya : i know , and i so love you for that . i really do . but it 's complicated , you know ? you have siblings . ridge and you have been going at it for years . imagine what it 's like for nicole and me . rick : then i have my answer . maya : you do ? rick : i wanted her here . i wanted to see you two get close . she has to appreciate you , maya . the changes that you 've made since you -- since you moved to l.a. ? you 're not the same person you used to be . that picture is who you are now . if your sister ca n't see that , then maybe she should n't be living here . maybe we should get , uh , her a nice place . i do n't know . what about ucla or something ? [ chuckles ] is that what you would like , sweetheart ? nicole : rick asked you a question . he respects you , trusts you , the woman in his life . do you want me to leave , maya ?Summarize.[/INST]with nicole is glaring at maya , rick sips his martini and tells nicole that he will tell her what he loves about her sister . besides being loyal and honest she is so self accepting and does not care what others think about her . maya looks uncomfortable . ridge thinks he must be dreaming when he opens his door to find bill . and the first thing bill does is notice the nude portrait of caroline and shows his disdain . bill assumes he is having a midlife crisis and going bohemian being so artistic . bill says ridge 's infatuation is disgusting and it is just some sick imagination . eventually they get around to the real reason bill is here to discuss liam 's hostile takeover of fc . ridge says he does not think it will happen without steffy as they do n't have enough stock . he knows his dad will give him the job back when rick 's year of terror is over . bill scoffs if there is a company left then . ridge is n't eager to get in bed with bill just yet . ridge says he will talk again with liam but he thinks he is otherwise occupied . bill asks ridge how much for the painting who replies that it is not for sale . bill says everything is for sale and he would like this out of here and free of ridge . ridge reminds him that caroline is a free agent now , but bill says she still could change her mind in the six month 's waiting period . she deserves to be in a healthy relationship . alone ridge thinks back of his times with caroline .... working with her , holding her hand and guiding it ..... smelling her hair and painting her and kissing her .</s> | 362 |

[ clears throat ] chelsea : you know , you put ginger ale in these glasses , and it looks pretty nice . max : yeah . you do n't think your grandma 's gon na be insulted that we 're not toasting to her with real champagne , do you ? chelsea : no , i think she 's happy to be around to be toasted at all . max : you know , you 've been -- you 've been really strong through all this ... like tonight , you know , when you found out she was okay . you 're smiling brighter , and your eyes are ... just really pretty . hope : so , you 're thinking about ... bo : just daydreaming , that 's all . hope : come on . i 'm a grown woman who can face facts . the last couple of weeks have been awful . we ca n't just pretend they never happened . bo : when we were younger and we got separated , uh , it hurt , and not just `` i do n't feel fulfilled `` kind of hurt . it was a `` rip your heart out and stomp on it `` kind of hurt . and this last little separation of ours ... hurt like that , like we never grew up . hope : so , tell you what -- let 's not . let 's stay young , naive , and in love . bo : okay . i do n't want you to ever leave me like that again . hope : do n't worry . i wo n't . hey , i told you , i understand . you were doing what you thought was best , that you were looking out for me . bo : [ sarcastically ] yeah . did a great job of that , did n't i ? hope : i 'm getting a mixed message here . you want to pretend like it never happened , but you 're still kind of brooding about it . what 's going on ? bo : no , it 's -- it 's not about that . hope : then what is it ? what ? what is wrong ? rafe : well , sure did n't take you long to start giving me a hard time again . sami : that 's because it did n't take you long to get that way that you get . he , uh , does n't make great first impressions . e.j . : oh , i know all about that . i 'm used to people judging me without actually knowing me . rafe : maybe i came at a bad time . sami : no . no , stay . i want you to meet the twins . rafe : yeah , i would like that . sami : you know , it 's funny . actually , the reason e.j . 's even here is because johnny left his laughing penguin at e.j .

[ sighs ] rafe : i do n't like this . i do n't like this at all , not being able to help . sami : oh , rafe , i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . i do n't mean to vent on you like this . you know , i mean , it 's not your problem . you -- you did your job . you took care of me , you kept me safe , you brought me home alive , and -- and now your work is done , right ? [ sniffles ] rafe : right . right . yeah . sami : [ chuckles ] rafe : what , this is funny ? sami : no , no , not this . but i was just thinking about how when you first got the assignment , how you could n't wait to get rid of me . rafe : yeah , well ... i got used to you , okay ? sami : vice versa . and , um , now you do n't have to protect me anymore . rafe : yeah . well , just because my job 's over does n't mean that i -- sami : you do n't want to help me ? rafe : yeah . sami : i wish you could , rafe . i really wish you could . rafe : well , you know ... i 'd sure like to try . how do you understand why those who work their way to the top , will risk a fall all the way down ? how do you understand that a place where we lost our cares , is now a place lost to a generation ? and how can a system that 's supposedly broke , can still deliver the most precious moment in life ? making sense of it all , it begins right here . kevin newman . `` global national . `` news understood . chelsea : is there any part of you that thinks that this could be a mistake ? max : no . every part of me thinks this is excellent . chelsea : i 'm scared that this is a mistake . max : are we gon na have a talk again ? chelsea : i think that we should . max : hmm . this is a date , and , um , you know , we do n't usually talk on dates . we just kiss . chelsea : the whole date thing -- it 's arbitrary . i just think that it 's a willful denial of the actual situation . max : willful denial ? we were just kissing a few seconds ago , happily , and now you 're saying things like `` willful denial `` ? chelsea : i 'm just ... you know , they make tons of movies about friendships that turn into relationships and then turn into a disaster when they do n't work out . max : yeah , but those are terrible movies written by terrible people who have no friends . chelsea : max ... if we ... things are gon na get complicated , and if they do n't work out , i could n't stand losing you as a friend . max : oh . chelsea : look , i 've just -- i 've ... never dated anybody that means as much to me as you do . and i 'm just scared that it wo n't work out . i mean , it never does . look at my track record . max : chelse ... this is gon na work out . chelsea : but how do you know that ? max : 'cause it 's me , okay ? and i - i would do anything to keep bad things from happening to you as long as i could help it , okay ? and since i 'm the one you 're dating , i 'd kind of like to think i could help it . but trust me , this is -- it 's a win - win situation . chelsea : so , you 're asking me to trust you ? max : yeah . chelsea : i think that i really do . hope : okay . you know , i - i understand -- i get that you do n't have any control over these visions , but just once , could n't you see us winning the lottery or enjoying world peace ... bo : yeah , i wish . hope : ... not something so incredibly disgusting and awful ? bo : i knew this would upset you , but i have to tell you what i see so that we can make sure it does n't happen . sami : i 'm so glad you 're here . rafe : yeah , well , wait till you hear what i have to tell you . sami : what ? rafe : i have to go to d.c . right away . sami : another assignment ? rafe : i ca n't tell you anything else . sami : okay . so , what does `` right away `` mean ? [ e.j . claps ] e.j . : okay . so , i 've been in negotiations with the twins , and we have a deal on the table . they concede that it is time for lights out . but they want a kiss from their mother and a glass of water before the lights go out . now , i should tell you in full disclosure that i promised them you 'd do it . sami : 'cause , of course , i will . stay here , okay ? i 'll just be right back . rafe : sure , no problem . e.j . : you know , uh , mr. hernandez , a glass of water and a kiss can take quite a long time , so , uh ... if you feel like you want to leave ... rafe : nah . i think i 'll stick around to say good night to sami . but it does sound to me like the twins are pretty well taken care of , so nothing 's stopping you from going home to your new little family . e.j . : mr. hernandez , you 'd be very well advised not to concern yourself with my family . rafe : well , guess i 'm just worried about how your fiancée 's doing -- stuck at home like that . sister theresa : mary , what are you doing here at this hour ? nicole : i - i just felt like i needed to come , sister . sister theresa : is everything all right ? i 've been praying for you . nicole : thank you for that . you know , you were -- you were so nice to me before and so understanding . i just wanted you to know that everything worked out . sister theresa : and , uh , what did you decide about the baby ? nicole : i did what i thought was right . i gave my baby up . sister theresa : i know that was n't an easy decision . nicole : it was the right thing to do . but i gave her to someone who will really love and take care of her better than i could . sister theresa : i hope that gives you some comfort . i know you loved your baby very much . nicole : is n't that what love is -- doing what 's best for someone else ? [ baby cooing ] oh , is that a baby , sister ? sister theresa : well , yes , as a matter of fact . nicole : oh , please , can i -- can i see her ? bo : well , you see what i 'm saying . i mean , it 's difficult to talk rationally about something that does n't make any sense . hope : well , i just do n't understand . why does this keep happening to us ? bo : yeah , i do n't understand it , either , but , you know , after you -- after you had that accident -- hope : ah ! i shot my sister - in - law , so let 's skip the euphemisms , okay ? bo : yeah . you were mad because i did n't tell you about my vision , and you thought if i had , you could have kept it from happening . hope : it 's true . bo : well , i agree with you on that point . hope : okay . so , now i know not to invite strange men to the bedroom . thanks for the tip . bo : hope , you know what ? hope : what ? bo : ah , nothing . forget it . hope : this is no day at the beach for you , either . bo : not exactly . hope : i 'm sorry . bo : it 's -- hope : no , i am . i 'm sorry . i 'm behaving like this is only happening to me . bo : no , no . that 's -- that 's -- that 's okay . i got -- i got to ask you . and i know i should know this , but ... hope : what ? bo : ... when you came home , did you do it because you wanted to or because you felt you had to for ciara ? hope : i see . you want to know if this vision is based on something real , something in me . sister theresa : seeing the baby might be very hard on you . nicole : oh , no . i - i 'll be fine . in fact , i think it might help me . sister theresa : i was just going to heat up a bottle . i 'll be right back . nicole : okay . hey , sweetheart . hi . hello , there . oh . oh , i got the blanket and everything . do you remember me , huh ? oh , i 'll get that .

[ knock on door ] ridge : detective sanchez . welcome . det . sanchez : i was surprised to get your call . ridge : [ clears throat ] det . sanchez : quite the story . shauna : what 's going on ? ridge : well , there 's a criminal on the property , so safety first . i called the police . shauna : oh , my god . flo : mom , it 's fine . shauna : no . flo , you need to not say another word until we get you an attorney . do you understand ? det . sanchez : you 're welcome to call one from the station . shauna : the station ? ! the station ? what are you talking about ? det . sanchez : flo fulton , you 're under arrest . shauna : you 're arresting her ? ! for what ? what are you charging her with ? det . sanchez : kidnapping , for one . shauna : but she 's innocent ! det . sanchez : ms. fulton actively participated in the falsifying of government documents . she also represented herself as the birth mother of a child she knew was stolen , which means we 'll be charging her with fraud . shauna : this is your niece ! she made a mistake , trusting the wrong man ! ridge : she made a mistake , and now she 's gon na pay for it . det . sanchez : let 's go . you have the right to an attorney . shauna : how could you let this happen ? det . sanchez : if you can not afford an attorney ... shauna : honestly , she had no idea ! it 's my fault ! i 'm the one that told her to be quiet . please , do n't arrest my daughter ! that 's my daughter ! please ! you have to believe me . she really did n't mean anything . please . you have to believe me . she got caught up in it . please ! | hope calmly tells flo that she is not sure what she can say . she thought her baby was dead and flo had a part in that . now she is saying that she wants forgiveness . flo says yes . she loves hope and wants to prove to her that she can be trusted again . liam goes to wyatt 's and he tells wyatt that bill and justin are coming over ; he hopes he does not mind . justin tells liam that bill filled him on the details and he can not believe that doctor pulled all of this off . liam tells them he does not know the details yet but he understands they will pick up reese today and he will be charged . bill says great . now they just need to get flo and have her arrested and they can rot in their cells . flo tells hope that is not an excuse but thomas knew everything and he threatened her life . hope asks what about before thomas . he did not know all of this months ago when flo did . flo admits he did not but still asks hope to forgive her . gritting her teeth hope says no , hell no ! not now , not ever . the banter escalates with flo nothing more to say than she wishes it had not happened and she was never pretending to be friends with hope . she actually loved her and was happy to be a logan . crying by now , hope says she does not want to hear about flo 's struggles . she could care less . she was handed a dead baby and told her it was beth . and not to mention steffy how much she has suffered too . she had a baby she raised for almost nine months just snatched from her and kelly will no longer have that close sister anymore . shauna tells the group that she does not know hope all that well but she hears she has a very big heart . and when she hears flo 's story she thinks she will agree . katie interrupts and asks how does a story that `` i sold your baby and lied about it for months `` go over . shauna says she was only helping her friend and when she realized it was wrong it was too late . they all remind shauna that flo signed false papers . brooke says maybe she did not plan this but she went along with it so she is guilty . shauna says there is one person and one person only to blame for all of this and that is reese buckingham . ridge says there is more than enough blame for several of them . and by the way , reese was arrested today . and since shauna is from vegas , what are the odds of her daughter not getting arrested today . she begs him not to let her be arrested . she 's their niece . brooke steps forward and says she stole her granddaughter and then she sold her and lied to all of them about it . she 's a thief just as ridge said and that is all she will ever be to brooke . hope tells flo that what she did was vile and despicable . and now she stands and wants forgiveness . and no she does not remotely understand for asking or she would not be standing here . and here she thinks she is the victim . flo starts to move closer and hope tells her do n't . it was she and liam that were the victims here and steffy . hope loses is and says for months and months flo lied and made out like she cared for hope . and so much for being family ; even that could not make her do the right thing . uncle storm would be so proud of her . so she does not want to hear of her struggles or how many times she was intimidated or bullied . it does not matter . flo chose silence . and all of this for some jerk at the blackjack table who had gambling debts . and he put a dead baby in her arms and told her it was hers . and that is who she aligned herself with and gave her loyalty . hope slaps her hard . she gives her the evil eye and points her finger at her and says that is what she deserves . bill declares that flo will spend time for this . liam tells justin that he wants to put this behind him but he will testify . wyatt says he does n't pretend to know her anymore but he does not think she is faking remorse or will fight this . liam tells wyatt that he will always hate flo for what she did but he knows how wyatt cares for her and his feelings are not going to be as clear cut as his . wyatt reminds them that he values trust and honesty and flo knew that . he says he loved her and always will but there is no part of that in his life right now . not after what she has done . | <s>[INST] hope : i 'm not sure what you expect me to say . flo : that you can give me a second chance to start over and be the cousin that i really want to be . hope : and you think you deserve that after what you did ? flo : no . hope : i was told my baby died . flo : i know . hope : yes . you did . you did know . you knew beth was alive . you knew what that man did . and still you said nothing . flo : if i could go back and change that , i would . but i can't . all i can do now is try to make it right with you . hope : all those months i lose with my daughter , you -- you think you can make that right ? flo : no , i - i can't . i - i know i ca n't make that right . but what i do know is that i do n't want to lose you . and i care about you so much . and i will do whatever it takes to prove that to you , and to prove to you that -- that you can trust me again . please , hope . shauna : well , say what you want , but i really think that flo is gon na get through to hope . donna : [ laughs ] no . no , i do n't think so . shauna : were n't you the ones that told me how close you logans are , and how loving and supportive ? katie : yeah , not when it comes to stolen babies . ridge : hey . what 's going on ? brooke : ridge , hi . ridge : what is she doing here ? brooke : [ sighs ] shauna 's trying to convince us that flo did nothing wrong . shauna : that 's not what i 'm saying . of course flo did something wrong . i did something wrong . i 'm just ... i 'm trying to ask for a little forgiveness . ridge : oh , wait . you 're serious . shauna : flo never intended to -- ridge : we do n't care about her intentions . we care about her actions . actions that will land her in prison . wyatt : congrats , man . liam : thank you . [ laughs ] yeah , thank you . wyatt : is that weird to say ? like , i mean , it does n't really feel like a `` congrats `` kind of situation . it 's more like a `` your nightmare is over , and i 'm incredibly happy for you . `` liam : well , it 's true . i mean , for the first time , it does n't feel like a dream anymore . beth is back . she 's back ! [ laughs ] what are you -- what are you doing ? wyatt : i feel like my brother is pretending to not cry , so i 'm gon na give him a hug to make us not feel uncomfortable . liam : i 'm not crying . you 're crying . wyatt : no , i 'm not crying . you 're crying . heh . liam : she 's back , man ! wyatt : [ laughs ] liam : she 's alive . she 's alive . it 's like my brain is struggling to process it , but ... wyatt : i mean , i guess it does actually feel like a `` congrats `` kind of situation . liam : yeah . i think it does . wyatt : what ? what is it ? liam : uh ... dad and justin are here . wyatt : oh . liam : i hope you do n't mind . i told them i was coming over . wyatt : no , the more , the merrier . it 's a celebration , right ? but justin , too , though ? liam : uh , yeah , 'cause i think dad has questions . like , legal questions . wyatt : right . bill : hey , hey ! what 's -- oh , come on ! it 's just you two ? liam : hey . wyatt : okay ... liam : come on . bill : well , i thought hope was gon na be here with my granddaughter . liam : you just saw beth earlier today . bill : i got a lot of time to make up for , liam . liam : yeah , do n't we all . hey , justin , how 's , uh -- how 's your family since emma ... ? justin : well , we 're still trying to make sense of it . but thank you . i - i appreciate that . heard about your news . i 'm very happy for you . liam : it 's pretty insane , is n't it ? justin : yeah , bill was filling me in on the way over . so , steffy had the baby the whole time ? liam : not -- not that she knew . bill : no . it was just as shocking for her . liam : actually , i was over there earlier , just to check up on her and kelly . justin : you know , i ca n't believe that the doctor was able to pull this whole thing off . liam : yeah , well , he had help . wyatt : yeah . he , uh , certainly did . flo : i did n't plan any of this . hope : [ scoffs ] flo : i did n't know what reese had done . i did n't know what he was involved in or how much trouble he was in . if i had known , hope , i -- i never would have gotten involved in any of this . hope : so i 'm supposed to forgive you because this was n't your idea ? flo : no . hope : because you just ... had to help a friend ? because you had no idea what was actually going on ? flo : thomas knew . did you know that ? thomas knew about beth . he knew about everything . and he did n't want me saying anything , and he threatened my life . because he did n't want anything getting in the way of being with you . i know that that 's -- that 's not an excuse , and i know i should have still come to you and everything , but i -- hope : i know . i know about all that . but what about before then ? before thomas ? you had plenty of times to -- hope : forgive you ? no . hell no . not now . and not ever . i had a heart problem . justin : what kind of doctor -- no , what kind of person switches babies ? bill : [ sighs ] liam : i just did n't question it . i mean , i - i should have questioned everything . wyatt : oh , come on . how could you have known that someone could do something so awful ? bill : well , my guys did n't get their hands on him , but at least he 's been arrested . liam : yeah , in london , apparently . i mean , i - i do n't know , like , when he gets extradited or what happens next . bill : oh , i 'll tell you what happens next , liam . what happens next is his little helper , flo , she gets arrested . and the two of them rot in their cells . shauna : i do n't know hope very well , but from what i 've seen and heard , she has a really big heart . and i think , once she hears flo 's side of the story , she 'll sympathize . katie : how does flo 's side of the story add up to anything but , `` i stole your baby , i sold it , and then i lied about it for months `` ? shauna : she was helping her friend . [ katie sighs ] and once she realized that she was doing something wrong , it was too late . brooke : really ? because i would have known it was wrong the minute i said the baby was mine . donna : i would have known the -- the moment i signed false papers . ridge : shauna . she put a stolen baby into my daughter 's arms and told her to raise it as her own . brooke : maybe she did n't plan it , but she went along with it , and that makes her just as guilty . shauna : there is one person and one person alone that took that baby . [ ridge sighs ] and that is reese buckingham . so you all should be putting the blame on him . ridge : there 's plenty of blame to go around . even with buckingham in custody . shauna : he -- he was arrested ? ridge : earlier today . oh . i know what i was gon na ask you . you 're from vegas , right ? so , what are the odds of your daughter not getting arrested today ? shauna : i am begging you , please . i 'm begging you , please . she 's your niece . please ! brooke : she stole my granddaughter . she stole her . she sold her . and then she lied to all of us about it . she 's not my niece . she is a thief . just like ridge said . and that 's all she will ever be to me . hope : did you honestly think that you could convince me to forgive you ? flo : i guess not . hope : what you did was vile . it was despicable . flo : i - i understand -- hope : no , you do n't ! or you would n't have showed your face here today if you even remotely understood what you put me through . and do n't do that . do n't look like you 're all torn up inside , like you 're some kind of -- [ scoffs ] oh , my god . you think you 're a victim in this . flo : no . no , i -- hope : don't . do n't you dare . liam and i were the ones victimized . and steffy , too . did you ever think about her ? her heartbreak ? what it would feel like to adopt a little girl , to fall in love with her , only to have her ripped away ? flo : of course i thought about her ! i thought about steffy every single day ! hope : and what about kelly ? how confused she 's gon na be when her little sister is n't there in the morning ? a stolen baby ! what is wrong with you ? flo : i do n't know . hope : when i think about month after month [ voice breaking ] and lie after lie , and you pretending to build this bond with me -- flo : i was n't pretending . hope : [ sobbing ] you made me trust you . you made me care about you . and you were deceiving me the entire time ! flo : i was not ! i never -- i never lied about our friendship . i never lied about being happy about being your cousin . yes , i -- i kept the truth from you , but the rest of it , it was n't a lie . hope : oh , well . so much for family , then , right ? even that could n't make you do the right thing . i can not believe i ever thought uncle storm would be proud to know you . flo : look ... finding out that you were family only made it that much harder . i struggled every single -- hope : i do n't want to hear about your struggles ! i do n't want to hear about how many people intimidated you , how many people bullied you .

det . sanchez : if you can not afford an attorney ... shauna : honestly , she had no idea ! it 's my fault ! i 'm the one that told her to be quiet . please , do n't arrest my daughter ! that 's my daughter ! please ! you have to believe me . she really did n't mean anything . please . you have to believe me . she got caught up in it . please !Summarize.[/INST]hope calmly tells flo that she is not sure what she can say . she thought her baby was dead and flo had a part in that . now she is saying that she wants forgiveness . flo says yes . she loves hope and wants to prove to her that she can be trusted again . liam goes to wyatt 's and he tells wyatt that bill and justin are coming over ; he hopes he does not mind . justin tells liam that bill filled him on the details and he can not believe that doctor pulled all of this off . liam tells them he does not know the details yet but he understands they will pick up reese today and he will be charged . bill says great . now they just need to get flo and have her arrested and they can rot in their cells . flo tells hope that is not an excuse but thomas knew everything and he threatened her life . hope asks what about before thomas . he did not know all of this months ago when flo did . flo admits he did not but still asks hope to forgive her . gritting her teeth hope says no , hell no ! not now , not ever . the banter escalates with flo nothing more to say than she wishes it had not happened and she was never pretending to be friends with hope . she actually loved her and was happy to be a logan . crying by now , hope says she does not want to hear about flo 's struggles . she could care less . she was handed a dead baby and told her it was beth . and not to mention steffy how much she has suffered too . she had a baby she raised for almost nine months just snatched from her and kelly will no longer have that close sister anymore . shauna tells the group that she does not know hope all that well but she hears she has a very big heart . and when she hears flo 's story she thinks she will agree . katie interrupts and asks how does a story that `` i sold your baby and lied about it for months `` go over . shauna says she was only helping her friend and when she realized it was wrong it was too late . they all remind shauna that flo signed false papers . brooke says maybe she did not plan this but she went along with it so she is guilty . shauna says there is one person and one person only to blame for all of this and that is reese buckingham . ridge says there is more than enough blame for several of them . and by the way , reese was arrested today . and since shauna is from vegas , what are the odds of her daughter not getting arrested today . she begs him not to let her be arrested . she 's their niece . brooke steps forward and says she stole her granddaughter and then she sold her and lied to all of them about it . she 's a thief just as ridge said and that is all she will ever be to brooke . hope tells flo that what she did was vile and despicable . and now she stands and wants forgiveness . and no she does not remotely understand for asking or she would not be standing here . and here she thinks she is the victim . flo starts to move closer and hope tells her do n't . it was she and liam that were the victims here and steffy . hope loses is and says for months and months flo lied and made out like she cared for hope . and so much for being family ; even that could not make her do the right thing . uncle storm would be so proud of her . so she does not want to hear of her struggles or how many times she was intimidated or bullied . it does not matter . flo chose silence . and all of this for some jerk at the blackjack table who had gambling debts . and he put a dead baby in her arms and told her it was hers . and that is who she aligned herself with and gave her loyalty . hope slaps her hard . she gives her the evil eye and points her finger at her and says that is what she deserves . bill declares that flo will spend time for this . liam tells justin that he wants to put this behind him but he will testify . wyatt says he does n't pretend to know her anymore but he does not think she is faking remorse or will fight this . liam tells wyatt that he will always hate flo for what she did but he knows how wyatt cares for her and his feelings are not going to be as clear cut as his . wyatt reminds them that he values trust and honesty and flo knew that . he says he loved her and always will but there is no part of that in his life right now . not after what she has done .</s> | 486 |

lucas : well , this time with the crypt keeper himself . sami : what he means is that stefano is back . lucas : which might be a good thing , after all , because that means that allie does n't have to live there anymore . sami : well , i 'm really happy this is working out for you . lucas : i 'm sorry that you 're hurt . i am . but if you and ej are gon na break up , maybe it 's better now than later . caroline : you and ej are breaking up ? sami : no . no , we are not . he is going to realize that i am right . he is going to come to his senses . lucas : oh , that sounds just like him , does n't it ? caroline : but you 're in love with him , are n't you ? sami : yes , of course i am , and i thought he felt the same way about me . caroline : he does . sami : then how can he expect me to do this ? if he really loves me , he would never ask me to do this . chad : so stefano leans on you to get you to stay here and makes you lean on me to get me to move in . ej : circle of life , dear boy . chad : ah , dimera - style . no wonder all the decanters are always half empty . ej : maybe we should start thinking about them as being half full , eh ? here . welcome home . chad : one big , happy family . lucas : i 'm just saying you should n't let ej bully you at all . you know , if you know something 's not right for you and the kids , you should n't do it . that 's all there is to it . sami : he 's not bullying me . lucas : i 'm just saying you 're doing the right thing , okay ? so stick to your guns . not your guns . forget i said `` guns . `` do n't touch another gun as long as you live , okay ? sami : good tip . lucas : hang in there for us . sami : thanks . look , grandma , the truth is , the fact that lucas agrees with me is sort of making me think that maybe i 'm wrong . jump in anytime . right ? it 's the dimeras . ej 's being psycho . you told me so . caroline : if i were to say anything , it would n't be any of that . sami : well , then do n't hold back . what are you thinking ? i mean , it would be a nightmare living in that house , right ? insane caroline : well , it does n't make sense , but why is ej insisting on it ? sami : because he told stefano he would . caroline : that ca n't be it . sami : it is . well , i mean , there 's more to it . it 's ... he had to promise stefano some things -- a lot of things -- to get stefano to give up the evidence that proved that i was innocent . caroline : such as ? sami : the entire company ... the deed to the house . caroline : everything ej had . sami : and then he had to promise that he would live in that house with him , that he would bring the entire family to live under that roof with him . caroline : and ej is sticking with that . sami : and it does n't make sense . i mean , it would be a nightmare , and he knows that . but he -- he keeps insisting that he gave his word as a dimera . caroline : well , i understand that . sami : what ? caroline : the man gave his word . it has to mean something . chad : it 's unbelievable . does n't sami get what you did for her ? ej : she says she does . chad : ah , well , and she still leaves you here with your decanter in hand . that 's -- that 's cold . ej : no , no , no , no . she wants me to leave with her and double - cross stefano . chad : well , it would n't be the first time . ej : i gave him my word ... as a dimera . chad : ah , the nuclear option . you told her that too ? ej : she does not have much sympathy for promises made to our father . chad : no , no , it 's -- it 's not about that . it 's about you . it 's about your word . ej : thank you . you 've been a dimera what , five minutes ? and you understand that . chad : got to have your word . ej : exactly . chad : okay , quick question -- uh , why were you so okay with me lying to cameron ? i mean , in fact , you were downright proud of me . ej : well , that was very different . cameron had something that you wanted -- you took it . did you give him your word ? chad : hell , no . ej : exactly . all is fair in love and war , chad . chad : well , you did what you had to do . ej : yes , i did . mmm . and that 's that . chad : whoa , wait a minute . wait a minute . let me have this . you still love sami , do n't you ? ej : of course . chad : well , then that ca n't be that . it 's not over yet . ej : chad , she stormed out of here . chad : ej , it 's sami . she storms out on the way to the supermarket . you ca n't take that seriously . come on . ej : this was not her having some little tantrum . she meant it . chad : well , then you have your work cut out for you , okay ? it 's not over yet . ej : i do n't beg . chad : no . hell , no . no , no , no , no . you make your case , counselor . she 'll get it . ej : maybe ... in time . chad : uh - uh . now ... while everything 's still mushy and she has n't dug in her heels . seriously , do it . ej : thank you , chad . it 's good to know you care . chad : oh , no , no . do n't -- do n't tear up on me , okay ? i do n't want to live in this joint without those kids around .

ej : everything . sami : now ej says that we have to all live there together . lucas : but you ca n't do that . sami : i know . no , i mean , it 's crazy . it would be a nightmare . it would be completely toxic . lucas : yeah , he 's been living off those poisonous fumes long enough . sami : do n't . caroline : oh , okay , okay . i am lost . and this time i ca n't blame it on alzheimer 's . lucas : ej wants sami to live in the dimera mansion , the dimera crypt . caroline : oh , that 's where you 've been living , is n't it ? lucas : well , this time with the crypt keeper himself . sami : what he means is that stefano is back . lucas : which might be a good thing , after all , because that means that allie does n't have to live there anymore . sami : well , i 'm really happy this is working out for you . lucas : i 'm sorry that you 're hurt . i am . but if you and ej are gon na break up , maybe it 's better now than later . caroline : you and ej are breaking up ? sami : no . no , we are not . he is going to realize that i am right . he is going to come to his senses . lucas : oh , that sounds just like him , does n't it ? caroline : but you 're in love with him , are n't you ? sami : yes , of course i am , and i thought he felt the same way about me . caroline : he does . sami : then how can he expect me to do this ? if he really loves me , he would never ask me to do this . chad : so stefano leans on you to get you to stay here and makes you lean on me to get me to move in . ej : circle of life , dear boy . chad : ah , dimera - style . no wonder all the decanters are always half empty . ej : maybe we should start thinking about them as being half full , eh ? here . welcome home . chad : one big , happy family . lucas : i 'm just saying you should n't let ej bully you at all . you know , if you know something 's not right for you and the kids , you should n't do it . that 's all there is to it . sami : he 's not bullying me . lucas : i 'm just saying you 're doing the right thing , okay ? so stick to your guns . not your guns . forget i said `` guns . `` do n't touch another gun as long as you live , okay ? sami : good tip . lucas : hang in there for us . sami : thanks . look , grandma , the truth is , the fact that lucas agrees with me is sort of making me think that maybe i 'm wrong . jump in anytime . right ? it 's the dimeras . ej 's being psycho . you told me so . caroline : if i were to say anything , it would n't be any of that . sami : well , then do n't hold back . what are you thinking ? i mean , it would be a nightmare living in that house , right ? insane caroline : well , it does n't make sense , but why is ej insisting on it ? sami : because he told stefano he would . caroline : that ca n't be it . sami : it is . well , i mean , there 's more to it . it 's ... he had to promise stefano some things -- a lot of things -- to get stefano to give up the evidence that proved that i was innocent . caroline : such as ? sami : the entire company ... the deed to the house . caroline : everything ej had . sami : and then he had to promise that he would live in that house with him , that he would bring the entire family to live under that roof with him . caroline : and ej is sticking with that . sami : and it does n't make sense . i mean , it would be a nightmare , and he knows that . but he -- he keeps insisting that he gave his word as a dimera . caroline : well , i understand that . sami : what ? caroline : the man gave his word . it has to mean something . chad : it 's unbelievable . does n't sami get what you did for her ? ej : she says she does . chad : ah , well , and she still leaves you here with your decanter in hand . that 's -- that 's cold . ej : no , no , no , no . she wants me to leave with her and double - cross stefano . chad : well , it would n't be the first time . ej : i gave him my word ... as a dimera . chad : ah , the nuclear option . you told her that too ? ej : she does not have much sympathy for promises made to our father . chad : no , no , it 's -- it 's not about that . it 's about you . it 's about your word . ej : thank you . you 've been a dimera what , five minutes ? and you understand that . chad : got to have your word . ej : exactly . chad : okay , quick question -- uh , why were you so okay with me lying to cameron ? i mean , in fact , you were downright proud of me . ej : well , that was very different . cameron had something that you wanted -- you took it . did you give him your word ? chad : hell , no . ej : exactly . all is fair in love and war , chad . chad : well , you did what you had to do . ej : yes , i did . mmm . and that 's that . chad : whoa , wait a minute . wait a minute . let me have this . you still love sami , do n't you ? ej : of course . chad : well , then that ca n't be that . it 's not over yet . ej : chad , she stormed out of here . chad : ej , it 's sami . she storms out on the way to the supermarket . you ca n't take that seriously . come on . ej : this was not her having some little tantrum . she meant it . chad : well , then you have your work cut out for you , okay ? it 's not over yet . ej : i do n't beg . chad : no . hell , no . no , no , no , no . you make your case , counselor . she 'll get it . ej : maybe ... in time . chad : uh - uh . now ... while everything 's still mushy and she has n't dug in her heels . seriously , do it . ej : thank you , chad . it 's good to know you care . chad : oh , no , no . do n't -- do n't tear up on me , okay ? i do n't want to live in this joint without those kids around .

[ scene_break ] announcer : coming up on `` as the world turns `` -- carly : you wanted julia gone , but i had to drag you into it , kicking and screaming . lily : and thanks to you , my son could spend the rest of his life in jail . mike : i understand . and sometimes , no matter how much you want something or no matter how hard you try , there are just some things that you can not forgive . and you can not forget . [ scene_break ] lily : i never should have written that letter . i just wanted to scare julia out of town -- carly : save your performance for the cops . i know there is no way you would have written a letter like that . lily : where did they find it ? carly : what , you mean you forget where you left it ? lily : just tell me , please . carly : her brother claims that he found it in her apartment . lily : i should 've known that they would check her things . carly : oh , stop it . keith did not find that letter . you somehow convinced him to tell that story and to bring the letter to jack . lily : i have to go to the police station . i have to get a sitter for the girls . could you please let yourself out ? carly : you did not write that letter , lily . at least , not while julia was alive . and you did not deliberately kill julia . lily : i 'm sorry if you 're disappointed in me . carly : i was there , remember ? you wanted julia gone , sure , but every time it came down to doing something even slightly shady to accomplish that , i had to drag you into it , kicking and screaming . lily : yes , you did . and thanks to you , my son could spend the rest of his life in jail . carly : i know you want to save luke . lily : no , you do n't know anything . i wrote that letter to julia because i wanted her dead . and i made good on my promise . carly : it was an accident . lily : no , i told you that . i needed your help to clean up the apartment and destroy the evidence . carly : well done . you have memorized this quite convincingly . too bad none of it is the truth . lily : well , there 's no way you can prove that . so please leave my house . or do you want to be here when the police come by and take me away in handcuffs ? carly : i will prove you 're lying , lily . i will prove it .

[ scene_break ] jennifer : afterwards , i -- i guess i was pretty drunk and i 'd passed out . and when i woke up , it was morning , and i -- and then i realized what -- mike : i do n't wan na hear any more of this . jennifer : do you want me to go ? mike , at least let me try to explain . mike : how can you explain this ? ! jennifer : i do n't know ! but maybe if i -- if i keep talking , then the right words will come out , and that you 'll -- mike : what ? ! jennifer : you 'll believe me when i tell you that i know what i did was wrong and stupid and horrible ! and i am so ashamed ! and i 'm sorry . mike , you know that you are the only -- mike : do n't , do n't ! jennifer : i thought that maybe you would understand . because of katie . mike : what ? ! jennifer : because something almost happened that night with you . mike : and that makes what you did right ? jennifer : no ! i 'm just -- i 'm saying that you were tempted ! mike : but i did n't sleep with her ! i did n't even kiss her , jen ! jennifer : i know ! i 'm the one who betrayed our relationship , not you ! and i know that there is the difference ! but -- you told me that the weird thing about that night with you and katie was that you realized how much you cared for me . and that 's what 's happened with me , mike . the thing with craig -- it was this hideous mistake . but it made me see how much i care about you , how much i love you and how much i ca n't stand to think of losing what we have . you remember -- you remember what you said ? you said that -- that people , even people in love , are not perfect . that you can hurt someone and still love them . please remember that , mike . remember what you said . mike : i remember . i also remember what i did . jennifer : you did -- you did the right thing . you left katie , and you came home to me -- mike : i 'm not talking about katie ! i 'm talking about something i once did to a different woman that i was supposed to love . i slept with her cousin , and it was -- it was a terrible mistake . you know , a one - night thing , like you and craig . too bad that did n't make molly feel any better . jennifer : but you -- you tried explaining to her , right ? like i 'm trying . mike : yep . yep . but she could not see past it . she could not forgive me . time did n't make it any better . apologies did n't make it any better . guess i never really knew how she felt until right now . jennifer : well , now that you 've seen both sides , maybe you can understand . mike : i understand -- that sometimes , no matter how much you want something or no matter how hard you try , there are just some things that you can not forgive . and you can not forget . jennifer : so you 're saying that , even though you made the same mistakes , that you ca n't forgive me ? mike : when carly and i were together , we were friends . we had a history . we were hurting . but you -- you do n't even like craig . jennifer : i know . mike : it 's not like we were broken up or something . we barely -- we barely had a disagreement . what are you gon na do the first time we get in a fight ? you just gon na walk up to the first guy , crawl in bed with him ? oh , jen . jennifer : no , no . and i thought the silent treatment was bad . why did n't you just slap me across the face ? mike : i could never hit you . jennifer : yeah , well , why should you when calling me a whore is so much more effective ? mike : no , i did n't mean for it to come out like -- jennifer : do n't , do n't , do n't . do n't apologize . all right ? in fact , just keep the insults coming . because maybe then they 'll be what i remember . and then i can just write you off . and i can remember you as a jerk instead of -- instead of knowing that -- you were what i 've always wanted . mike : jennifer . jennifer : no . oh , do n't say my name . not like that . please , do n't say it like you did when you loved me . it 'll just make what i have to do next so much harder . mike : what do you have to do next ? jennifer : leave . i 'll pack a few things and then send for the rest tomorrow .

theo : hey , now , that 's probably a question you 've been asking yourself a lot . but i do n't blame you for holding out hope . there is obviously something between you and kyle , even now that he 's married . and , who knows , maybe one of these days he 'll get bored with his walk on the mild side . summer : okay , and there you go again , making fun of kyle and his tame life . talk about projecting , theo . really ? what are your exciting plans for the evening ? theo : it 's not my birthday . summer : that 's a pretty lame excuse . i mean , should n't someone as hip and cool as you be doing something better than just hanging out at a hotel bar , giving me a hard time ? come on , vanderway , either put up or shut up . theo : what do you have in mind ? summer : now you 're telling me that you forgot how to have fun . really ? theo : definitely not . you want to go upstairs with me and see for yourself ? summer : [ scoffs ] okay . forget it . those days are long gone . and , if i recall correctly , you 're the one who had the bright idea to call it off . theo : you could talk me out of that decision , if you wanted to . at least for tonight . tanner : message received . tessa : i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to . it just did n't come out right . you 're handsome and charming . you 're probably used to getting your own way , but , uh , let me tell you , mariah copeland is the last person to be impressed by any of that . she works with celebrities every day , and , to her , they 're just like everybody else . tanner : i get it . tessa : mariah and i are just gon na have to work this out on our own . tanner : makes sense . but back to business -- i need to know as soon as possible if you 're gon na sign on as my opening act . i can only keep the slot open for so long , but i 'm really hoping that i can have that slot filled by you . tessa : why is that , tanner ? i mean , i know that you keep saying it 's all about my singing , but there are so many fabulous singers who deserve a chance just as much as i do . i just ca n't but think this is about something else . tanner : there are n't too many people in my life that knew me before i hit it big . tessa : is n't that a good thing ? tanner : i mean , yeah , for the most part , but i was glad to kick the dust off my feet . but you were kind to me . you believed in me . i mean , i 'm pretty sure i would never have made it to this point if it were n't for your support , and now i have the opportunity to repay the favor . i 'm just hoping that you 'll let me . tessa : that 's really sweet of you ... tanner : uh , hey . i 'm tanner watts . you must be mariah . it 's really nice to meet you . amanda : did you come from the gym ? billy : you mean my outfit ? yes , i know , it 's very stylish . i , uh -- i walked over here , very briskly , to try and use up some of my energy so i could potentially sleep tonight . i 'm not sure what to do with it . i 'm not even sure where it came from . amanda : i can relate . billy : yeah ? amanda : yeah , i am feeling antsy tonight , too . but , unlike you , i know exactly what it 's about . i am in desperate need of a new challenge . billy : a case ? amanda : maybe . i think i just need a puzzle to wrap my brain around -- the more diabolical , the better . billy : oh , i have one for you . yeah , it 's complicated as hell . amanda : sounds intriguing . billy : mm . i was actually hoping that you could help me out with it . you and me . what is this ? what 's going on here , amanda ? ( vo ) morning , noon , night ; `` the young and the restless `` will continue . amanda : i am joining a friend for coffee . billy : yeah . exactly . why are we friends ? i mean , why -- why do we click , right ? i mean ... come on , most of the time , you meet somebody and you strike up a conversation or you become friends with them , you have common ground , right ? you work together or your kids go to school together or you root for the same team , like you 're a bears fan , or something . amanda : bears . that 's like the pointy ball sport , right ? billy : yeah . it 's the pointy ball sport . my point exactly . we have nothing in common . amanda : well , maybe not on the surface , but ... billy : okay , for example , victoria and me , okay ? we are ... very different people . we have different temperaments , we have different outlooks on life , but we have common ground . i mean , we were both born in genoa city , we , uh , both have parents that split up , we had troubled adolescence , we went to boarding schools , -- we did all that . amanda : with all those shared experiences , yeah , it 's -- it 's no wonder that you two connect . billy : exactly . so explain to me why you seem to understand what i 'm thinking or what i 'm about to say . half the time , before i even say it , you 're -- you know what i 'm about to express , and either you 're clairvoyant , or you just do this with everyone . what is it ? amanda : hardly . i -- i do , i feel a comfort level with you that i do n't share with too many people . billy : yeah . i know . it feels like we 've known each other for years , and we 've practically just met . amanda : i do n't know . i ca n't explain it any more than you can , billy , but i do know that it is definitely not because i come from a wealthy family or i went to boarding school . hey , i did go to ivy league law school . there 's that . billy : oh , yeah , i traveled around after high school . i went to louisiana and florida , and then i came back here and went to gcu . amanda : well , i was a self - starter . very determined . focused on success . billy : i was a black sheep , screw - up , one after another . amanda : [ laughs ] i do n't have kids . billy : i have kids , and they are the center of my world . this is my point . what 's going on ? amanda : i mean , could it really be that the only shared experience that we have is that we were at the same place at the same time when the lights went out in genoa city ? billy : i doubt it . anyway , we 'll figure it out at some point , i guess , right ? amanda : or maybe we will decide to stop analyzing it to death , and we 'll just accept it for what it is and enjoy each other 's company . billy : cheers to that . tessa : tanner came by to give me more information about the tour , but he was just leaving . tanner : i understand it 's you i have to thank for encouraging tessa to stick with her music . it 's a tough business . a lot of people would have given up . tessa : i could have easily been one of them . mariah : well , i was n't about to let her do that . she 's too talented . so do n't think you 're the only one who noticed . tanner : i 'm sure i 'm not . i mean , those videos you produced for her are brilliant . you showcased tessa perfectly as a songwriter and as a performer . i mean , once she gets a name for herself , that investment 's gon na pay off big- time then you 're gon na have acts from all over clamoring to hire you so you can do the same thing for them . i mean , you factor in the commissions and the merchandise sales ... tessa : well , you know , those are all really interesting points , ones that mariah and i will discuss later . alone . tanner : got it . tessa : since you have a girlfriend yourself , you must know , all that traveling is very disruptive to your personal life , and i 'm not sure if i 'm up for it . this is not an easy decision , and it 's not one that i will make rashly or impulsively . tanner : makes sense . i mean , you got to do you . but , um ... i 've got to hire an opening act . if you wait too long , the decision will be made for you . tessa : i understand . tanner : great . it was really nice to meet you . i hope we 'll be talking again soon . mariah : of course . tessa : oh , thank you . tessa : i am so , so sorry . i had no idea that he was just gon na show up here . mariah : it 's tanner 's way of underscoring just how much he wants you to go on tour with him . tessa : but all that matters to me is how you feel about it . so ... what are you thinking ? mariah : i think you should do it . summer : how long are you gon na keep pretending that you 're some wild child compared to kyle when , really , all you want to do is emulate him ? theo : kyle and i work at the same company . that is where the similarities end . summer : yeah , case in point , even though you had other options , you chose to work in the same office as kyle . i mean , for crying out loud . ashley offered you a job in paris , and any normal , unattached , ambitious guy your age would have jumped at that chance . it probably would have been a really great adventure , and i 'm sure more responsibility , better pay , even ... theo : you 're speculating . summer : you said that you wanted to stay because of me , and then you dumped me right after , so that was just bogus . theo : jack made me a great offer . i 'm building my career , getting to know my family ... summer : yeah , well , you probably would 've had an easier time building your career in paris without kyle breathing down your neck , and you do n't really attend that many abbott family gatherings . theo : it 's a process , all right ? summer : make all the excuses you want , theo , but i know the real reason why you decided to stick around town . and , unfortunately for you , she 's happily married . lola : what are you thinking ? kyle : this reminds me of the time we did your fantasy date at the athletic club . lola : and that 's when you told me you understood for the first time what it meant to be in love . kyle : by that point , i started to believe we might have a future together but i could n't imagine this future . now , here we are , married both working our dream jobs .... it all happened within a year . makes me excited to think about what 's coming for us . lola : hopefully good things . kyle : do n't sound too optimistic . lola : remember what i told you about my insecurities ? sometimes when things seem a little too perfect , i get this nagging thought in the back of my mind that it might not last . kyle : you 're not saying you 're afraid it wo n't work , are you ? lola : no , no . not our marriage . this honeymoon phase . i like it a lot , and i -- i would really miss it if it was gone . kyle : oh , well , we 'll just have to keep it going , then . lola : no one in either of our families has been able to do that , kyle . we have no good role models , and neither of us has ever been in a long - term , committed relationship before . kyle : we 're learning , right ? getting better and better at it . we both know what it means to work hard and sacrifice for the things we want , and ... i have never wanted anything more than i want a happy life with you ... lola rosales abbott . we 're going to have that together . we 'll get through anything . billy : oh , it was ridiculous . i was climbing the walls . as much as i complain about not having any time alone to clear my head , i had about 5 minutes of peace and quiet , and that was enough for me . amanda : well , it 's understandable . billy : is it , really ? amanda : yeah . you are an extrovert . you 're not into contemplating your own navel . you need to talk things through with someone else . billy : exactly , and , let me guess , you 're an introvert that would rather spend time alone . amanda : i actually prefer it most of the time . billy : figures ! amanda : what can i say ? i enjoy my own company . billy : oh , yeah . nice . amanda : but i 'm trying to be more social and make some new friends , especially since i 'm putting roots down here in genoa city . billy : how 's that going for you ? amanda : i do n't know . let 's see , um ... i stayed in touch with nate after i represented him . billy : he 's a good man . amanda : yeah . and i 'm getting to know phyllis . phyllis summers ? billy : yeah , i know phyllis summers . we have a history . not exactly a pretty one . amanda : oh . billy : yeah , we were together for a while , and , uh , when we got together , she was actually married to my brother jack . amanda : oh , wow . billy : and it kind of went downhill from there . amanda : yeah . billy : but as far as acquaintances or even friends , i think you could do worse . amanda : ringing endorsement , right there . billy : no , she 's cool , you know ? she 's -- she 's smart . she 's funny . she 's independent . i 'm not surprised you two are friends . sharon : oh , i did n't realize you two knew each other . billy : uh , amanda represented nate when he got in trouble with the , uh , medical board for helping victor assist his own death , and , um -- and victoria and the family were so thankful that she did a wonderful job because nate was able to keep his , uh , medical license . sharon : oh , that 's -- that 's really great , you know , that he kept his license because , you know , he 's a terrific doctor . billy : yeah . amanda : yes , i 'm just glad that i could help . sharon : yeah . excuse me . billy : [ clears throat ] amanda : [ clears throat ] i 'm gon na get going . billy : yeah , it 's , uh -- it 's getting late . well , i appreciate you letting me bend your ear . amanda : good night , billy . billy : good night . what are you doing , man ? you could have just said you were buds , you hit it off . sharon would n't have thought anything of it . people do that , you know . they make random friends . there 's nothing to hide . so why do you feel like you need to hide it ? mariah : tanner being here when i walked in has nothing to do with me encouraging you to go on tour with him . tessa : really ? mariah : i had made my mind up before i walked in the door . tessa : why ? mariah : on the drive over here , i was thinking about why you would have possibly lied to me about tanner , and ... i realized it was probably because you were scared that i would n't understand , and any decision made out of fear is almost always the wrong one . then it hit me . if you decide not to go on tour because you think that i 'm going to freak out or it 's going to ruin what we have , then ... that 's just another version of the same mistake . tessa : i do n't -- i do n't see it that way . mariah : tessa . this is what you were born to do . you ca n't pass this up . tessa : yeah , singing for a living is my dream , but it does n't have to happen right now , not like this . mariah : tessa ... tessa : look , if i 'm as talented as you and tanner think i am , i 'll have other opportunities , which may not include having me leave you for months , okay ? this is n't about fear , it 's about priorities . mariah : i would miss you like crazy , and i know you would miss me . but if you pass this up and then later on you regret it , i would just hate to be the reason why . tessa : i promise . i will own up to this decision , and i wo n't hold you or anyone else responsible . but that does mean i need to make it by myself , and i need to sleep on it because i can not think straight right now . mariah : whatever you decide , i promise you , i will support you . theo : have you shared your theory with kyle about my supposed interest in his wife ? summer : why , do you want me to ? theo : i 'll take that as a no . summer : no , i have n't said anything . theo : so either you do n't really believe it , or you do believe it and you 're hoping i succeed in breaking them up . summer : you know , that 's a really terrible thing to say . theo : i do n't hear a denial . summer : [ scoffs ] well , you know , you 're kind of making me wish you had actually gone to paris . we 'd all probably be better off . it 's not too late to go , you know . i 'm sure ashley would welcome you with open arms . theo : [ chuckles ] the perfect birthday gift for kyle -- me resigning to take a job on another continent , hmm ? maybe next year . for now , i 'm staying put . i have too much i want to accomplish here . and , before you ask , no , i 'm not gon na tell you what i mean by that . summer : fine . whatever you say , theo . i 'll see you at work . kyle : and ... bam ! there we go . i 'm now connected to the lighting and sound system . lola : what are you doing ? kyle : oh ... this . say goodbye to only one 'cause from now on there 'll be two of us whatever comes i 'll be right here by your side through day and night and now we 're here , and everything is right i 've waited a long time to say to you for better or worse i do stay here this way | summer and theo discuss his feelings for lola which he insists he does n't have because they are just friends . victoria leaves billy because she has to go on a business trip . billy gets restless alone at home and heads to crimson lights to have coffee with amanda . kyle celebrates his birthday in a private celebration at society where they make plans for the future . mariah forgives tessa for not telling her about her ex husband tanner watts . tessa decides to sleep on it before she gives tanner an answer about going on tour with him . | <s>[INST] [ previously_on ] billy : leaving my family company -- i mean , really leaving it this time -- was probably the best thing i 've done . amanda : why would you say that ? billy : because i feel alive for the first time in a long time . theo : you know , if you stare at them any harder , they might break . summer : i just think it 's nice when two people can show each other affection . theo : except you wish kyle 's affection was coming your way . summer : what are you , lola 's pet ? mariah : what were you thinking when you decided not to tell me about you and tanner ? no , i 'm sorry . when you decided to lie . sharon : tanner watts , the big rock star ? mariah : right , yeah . he wants tessa to go on tour with him , be his opening act . sharon : that 's huge ! that 's the kind of break musicians dream about . but i can understand why you 'd be worried about what that might mean for you as a couple . i mean , that 's a lot of time to be apart . but , you know , that -- that was the whole point of your pr campaign , right ? get tessa 's name out there , make people aware of her music ... mariah : yeah , it was , and i guess i succeeded . sharon : i 'm guessing that tanner saw her music videos online . mariah : yeah , he did , uh ... but they had met before . sharon : how well did they know each other ? mariah : mm . pretty well . they were married . tanner : this is the opportunity of a lifetime , and your career 's going to take off like a rocket . tessa : yeah , you can guarantee that , can you ? tanner : listen to me , tessa . i 'm doing 27 shows in 21 cities between now and spring break . you 're gon na see more of north america in the next three months than most people see in their entire lives . two nights in memphis . you still like barbecue ? i can hook it up . a weekend in ustin . you have not lived until you have been to the museum of the weird . tessa : sounds like my kind of place , all right . tanner : yeah , and you 're gon na have the time of your life . so , what you do say ? are you gon na join me on the road , or -- tessa : tanner . tanner . okay , i -- i need to think about this , okay i just need time , all right ? i 've had no time to process all of this . tanner : [ sighs ] what 's holding you back ? is it your girlfriend ? billy : okay . luggage is in the car . victoria : thank you . i hope i 'm not forgetting anything . billy : you got your toothbrush ? victoria : uh ... check . billy : earplugs , eye mask . victoria : check . billy : okay , um ... what about a trashy novel for the plane ? victoria : [ sighs ] singapore is a 23-hour flight one way . billy : you 're right , two trashy novels for the plane . victoria : [ sighs ] check . billy : where 's hannah ? she 's supposed to have the kids back from the , uh , ranch to say goodbye to you . i 'm gon na text her real quick . victoria : oh , no . no need . i dropped by on my way from work to say goodbye and to arrange for the kids to spend the night with my mom and dad . billy : why did you do that ? victoria : well , i thought maybe you could use a little peace and quiet , have the house to yourself for a while . it 's my way of saying thank you for the wonderful `` me `` time that you surprised me with last week . billy : that is very considerate . thank you , honey . victoria : i know that you 've been really stressed out . you 've been working so hard . billy : i know . victoria : you deserve it . billy : uh , i got a question , though . where is my fluffy robe and cabernet ? i do n't -- i do n't see it anywhere . victoria : well , i did n't know what you 'd want to do , so i 'm -- i 'm just leaving it up to you . you can -- you can watch basketball , you can go to the gym , you can just have a little downtime . you know , you can ponder your thoughts . billy : [ chuckles ] victoria : you do n't get to do that very often , and sometimes , when you do . , inspiration floats to the top . billy : inspiration . victoria : well , i know that you 've been struggling ever since you left jabot , wondering what to do with your life . i hope that i 'm not putting any pressure on you . billy : i did n't take it that way . i did n't take it that way , and you 're probably right , a night off from the world is exactly what i need . thank you . victoria : you 're welcome . theo : oh , wait . does this mean that you 're celebrating kyle 's birthday here ? because , if you are , i want it on record that i am not crashing . i had no idea . summer : okay , theo . theo , relax . i 'm just here for a drink , okay ? and how did you know about kyle 's birthday ? theo : i used to party with the guy in new york . we 'd still be recovering from our new year 's hangovers , and it was time to break out the cake . summer : mm . gotcha . theo : anyway , he was kind of vague about his plans for tonight , so i figured there was some kind of family thing i was n't invited to . summer : mm , no , he was vague because he does n't know what the plan is . lola 's surprising him . lola : almost there ... kyle : wait , should i -- should i be worried ? lola : that depends . do you trust me ? kyle : whoa , whoa , whoa . is that a trick question ? lola : okay , and ... stop right here . kyle : mm - hmm . & lola : hold this for me . thank you . kyle : what ? you 're throwing me a party ? lola : something like that . thank you . kyle : [ chuckles ] lola : abbott , party of two . kyle : whoa , whoa . you closed the restaurant for the evening ? you 'll lose all that business . lola : well , abby says `` happy birthday , `` and the staff were very , very grateful for a night off . kyle : [ chuckles ] this is awesome . lola : i thought about throwing you a bash . kyle : mnh - mnh . you made the right choice . i get you all to myself , all night -- best gift ever . humira patients ... additional sponsorship tessa : if you 're implying that somehow mariah is holding me back , she 's not , okay ? i would 've given up music if it was n't for her . tanner : peace . i 'm just trying to feel out where your head 's at . i have no issue with your girlfriend . it 's obvious that she 's very important to you . tessa : very . tanner : look , i get it . it was probably a really strange conversation to have . `` hey , hon , i 'm thinking about going on the road with my ex . `` tessa : especially since she did n't know i had an ex . tanner : wait . seriously ? tessa : it never came up . tanner : well what , did you just , like , erase me from your history , or something ? kyle : [ laughs ] ropa vieja , the sandwich that brought us together . lola : not quite . you see , when you first ordered it at my food truck ... kyle : mm - hmm . lola : ... i ignored all of your special requests , and i made it my way . kyle : mm - hmm . lola : but , today , kyle abbot , it 's your birthday . so you get everything the way you like it . kyle : mm . lola : raw pepper , minced open , cheddar instead of swiss . kyle : you remember my original order . lola : of course i remember . it was a moment that changed my life forever . bon appétit . kyle : mm - hmm . ooh ! mmm ! it 's perfect . lola : yeah ? kyle : i was n't talking about the way it tastes . what 's perfect is the metaphor . the sandwich is fine . just like my life was back then . but i had no idea how good it could be till i found you . so ... you said i could have anything for my birthday . lola : yes . kyle : please . please , do n't make me eat this sandwich because your version is a million times better . [ both laugh ] lola : okay . i will be right back with something very delicious . kyle : mm . mm - hmm . lola : [ giggles ] theo : i suppose you know what lola 's got in store tonight for kyle . summer : only because she called to make sure that he did n't have to work late . theo : ah . let me guess . they had a flight to catch . so where they headed , hmm ? a ski lodge in aspen ? clubbing in new york ? summer : okay , first of all , it 's none of your business , really , and , second , you are way off - base . theo : yeah . okay . i should have put more thought into my guess . lola 's not into big , flashy gestures . that would 've been the kind of thing you would have done if you and kyle would have stayed together . summer : [ sighs ] theo : oh , do n't tell me you do n't still think about it . i know you too well . billy : journaling , meditation , get out into nature -- yeah ! great advice , if you want to be a yoga teacher or a park ranger . `` when you feel like you 're living someone else 's life ... `` ooh ! yes , billy , we see you . you can put your hand down now . `` it is essential to take those big risks , to step out into the unknown . `` this is about as fun as a root canal , and this is not what i need . [ groans ] lactaid is 100 % real milk , just without the lactose . mariah : tessa and i were up all night trying to hash things out . i just ca n't seem to get over new year 's eve . sharon : yeah , i would feel the same . mariah : but , i mean , i do understand why she never mentioned tanner to me . their marriage was over years ago , and it only lasted a few months . plus , this is n't even in the same league as some of the other secrets that she 's kept from me . sharon : that 's true . it is n't criminal behavior . she get points for that . mariah : tessa never thought that she would see tanner again , except maybe on tv or in his videos . it did n't seem relevant to our lives today . sharon : a lie of omission is still a lie . and an ex - husband -- that 's a pretty significant piece of information to leave out , especially when you 're in love and things are getting serious . there are a lot of things i did n't tell nick when we first got together -- just things about my past that i was n't proud of . mariah : no , but you were a teenager . you did n't want to lose him . sharon : true . you know , i still knew that it was wrong to be dishonest , and when everything came out , it caused some real problems in our relationship . mariah : i know . i understand what you 're saying . i just -- i think this is different . sharon : how so ? mariah : you know , she eloped with tanner to get out of her crappy home life , but it seems like she just swapped one set of problems for the other . believe me , i know what that 's like . if you want to look at my love life , or , if you even call it that , i mean , it 's just a series of disasters , and i would n't want to dredge it up and go into all the details . sharon : sounds like you want to give tessa a pass for everything that 's happened in the past , but you 're right . when it comes to new year 's eve , she should have told you the minute she got that text . mariah : no , i agree . she should have told me right away , i know that . and it really , really bothers me that she didn't . sharon : do you think that she 'll accept tanner 's offer to go out on tour . mariah : i do n't know . sharon : you two have been through some intense challenges before . honestly , some things that i did n't think your relationship would survive . mariah : are you telling me to trust her now ? sharon : i 'm telling you that i trust you to protect yourself and still remain loving and understanding with tessa because that 's the person you are , and i could n't be more proud of you . sharon : thank you , mom . i do n't know what i would do . if i did n't have you to talk to . tessa : our relationship back then , it 's just really hard to explain . i mean , i 'm sure if you had a girlfriend you would n't be excited to tell her how much you messed up the first marriage . tanner : i do have a girlfriend , and she actually knows all about you . tessa : oh . is everyone more evolved than i am ? tanner : tessa . look at me . we have no reason to be ashamed of our past . we were dumb kids making dumb decisions . that 's what a misspent youth is for . and bonus -- it 's great material for songwriting . tessa : `` fess up `` and `` girl in absentia `` -- those are about me , are n't they ? tanner : um , no ... what would make you think that ? of course not . tessa : [ scoffs ] tanner : look ... i apologize if me popping up like this caused any tension with you and your girlfriend . i mean , can i help ? can i maybe , like , explain things to mariah ? like , that 's her name , right ? tessa : yeah , that 's her name , and , no , you may absolutely not talk to her . that is a terrible idea ! amanda : i hope you do n't mind , i started without you . billy : [ chuckles ] lola : dinner is served . kyle : outstanding . lola : oh , what are you making ? kyle : i am making my special non - alcohol mocktails from a secret family recipe , which i blatantly stole since it was n't my family . lola : sweet . [ giggles ] kyle : i 've re - christened them , uh , january birthday , in honor of the occasion ... i think i have most of the ingredients . lola : what 's in it ? kyle : fresh - squeezed blood orange juice ... with pulp ... lola : naturally . kyle : mm - hmm . a little vanilla extract . lola : mm - hmm . kyle : mm - hmm . some lime soda water ... now ... all i need is honey . lola : i think there 's some under the counter . kyle : got it . observe closely , my dear . this ... is where the magic happens . yes . lola : wow , i had no idea you were such an expert . kyle : oh , `` mixology `` is my middle name . lola : oh ! so , where 'd you learn to do all that ? kyle : mm . i 'll never tell . lola : [ giggles ] was it all the bar - hopping you did with theo ? kyle : please . all he does is shots . this is artistry . lola : oh , yeah , so i see . kyle : mm - hmm . okay , confession time . i used to bartend in the hamptons for this hedge fund manager . he 'd throw these epic parties . i get to meet incredible people and learn to make these exotic drinks . lola : but these drinks do n't have any liquor . kyle : ooh ! booze has a ton of calories . so if you 're a supermodel and it 's saturday night , and you got to shoot in paris monday morning , the last thing you want is alcohol bloat . the ladies used to love my mocktails . ooh ! ahh ! voilà . january birthday . lola : thank you . kyle : cheers , baby . mm - hmm ? lola : yum ! kyle : mm . told you . what ? lola : i ca n't help thinking about how different our lives were back then , and what mine looks like now . summer : so , um , how are your jabot emoji revisions coming ? theo : hey , no fair , changing the subject . not before you tell me what you got kyle for his birthday . summer : nothing . theo : [ scoffs ] yeah , right . summer : okay , why ca n't you just let this go ? theo : hey , now , that 's probably a question you 've been asking yourself a lot . but i do n't blame you for holding out hope . there is obviously something between you and kyle , even now that he 's married . and , who knows , maybe one of these days he 'll get bored with his walk on the mild side . summer : okay , and there you go again , making fun of kyle and his tame life . talk about projecting , theo . really ? what are your exciting plans for the evening ? theo : it 's not my birthday . summer : that 's a pretty lame excuse . i mean , should n't someone as hip and cool as you be doing something better than just hanging out at a hotel bar , giving me a hard time ? come on , vanderway , either put up or shut up . theo : what do you have in mind ? summer : now you 're telling me that you forgot how to have fun . really ? theo : definitely not . you want to go upstairs with me and see for yourself ? summer : [ scoffs ] okay . forget it . those days are long gone . and , if i recall correctly , you 're the one who had the bright idea to call it off . theo : you could talk me out of that decision , if you wanted to . at least for tonight . tanner : message received . tessa : i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to . it just did n't come out right . you 're handsome and charming . you 're probably used to getting your own way , but , uh , let me tell you , mariah copeland is the last person to be impressed by any of that . she works with celebrities every day , and , to her , they 're just like everybody else . tanner : i get it . tessa : mariah and i are just gon na have to work this out on our own . tanner : makes sense . but back to business -- i need to know as soon as possible if you 're gon na sign on as my opening act . i can only keep the slot open for so long , but i 'm really hoping that i can have that slot filled by you . tessa : why is that , tanner ? i mean , i know that you keep saying it 's all about my singing , but there are so many fabulous singers who deserve a chance just as much as i do . i just ca n't but think this is about something else . tanner : there are n't too many people in my life that knew me before i hit it big . tessa : is n't that a good thing ? tanner : i mean , yeah , for the most part , but i was glad to kick the dust off my feet . but you were kind to me . you believed in me . i mean , i 'm pretty sure i would never have made it to this point if it were n't for your support , and now i have the opportunity to repay the favor . i 'm just hoping that you 'll let me . tessa : that 's really sweet of you ... tanner : uh , hey . i 'm tanner watts . you must be mariah . it 's really nice to meet you . amanda : did you come from the gym ? billy : you mean my outfit ? yes , i know , it 's very stylish . i , uh -- i walked over here , very briskly , to try and use up some of my energy so i could potentially sleep tonight . i 'm not sure what to do with it . i 'm not even sure where it came from . amanda : i can relate . billy : yeah ? amanda : yeah , i am feeling antsy tonight , too . but , unlike you , i know exactly what it 's about . i am in desperate need of a new challenge . billy : a case ? amanda : maybe . i think i just need a puzzle to wrap my brain around -- the more diabolical , the better . billy : oh , i have one for you . yeah , it 's complicated as hell . amanda : sounds intriguing . billy : mm . i was actually hoping that you could help me out with it . you and me . what is this ? what 's going on here , amanda ? ( vo ) morning , noon , night ; `` the young and the restless `` will continue . amanda : i am joining a friend for coffee . billy : yeah . exactly . why are we friends ? i mean , why -- why do we click , right ? i mean ... come on , most of the time , you meet somebody and you strike up a conversation or you become friends with them , you have common ground , right ? you work together or your kids go to school together or you root for the same team , like you 're a bears fan , or something . amanda : bears . that 's like the pointy ball sport , right ? billy : yeah . it 's the pointy ball sport . my point exactly . we have nothing in common . amanda : well , maybe not on the surface , but ... billy : okay , for example , victoria and me , okay ? we are ... very different people . we have different temperaments , we have different outlooks on life , but we have common ground . i mean , we were both born in genoa city , we , uh , both have parents that split up , we had troubled adolescence , we went to boarding schools , -- we did all that . amanda : with all those shared experiences , yeah , it 's -- it 's no wonder that you two connect . billy : exactly . so explain to me why you seem to understand what i 'm thinking or what i 'm about to say . half the time , before i even say it , you 're -- you know what i 'm about to express , and either you 're clairvoyant , or you just do this with everyone . what is it ? amanda : hardly . i -- i do , i feel a comfort level with you that i do n't share with too many people . billy : yeah . i know . it feels like we 've known each other for years , and we 've practically just met . amanda : i do n't know . i ca n't explain it any more than you can , billy , but i do know that it is definitely not because i come from a wealthy family or i went to boarding school . hey , i did go to ivy league law school . there 's that . billy : oh , yeah , i traveled around after high school . i went to louisiana and florida , and then i came back here and went to gcu . amanda : well , i was a self - starter . very determined . focused on success . billy : i was a black sheep , screw - up , one after another . amanda : [ laughs ] i do n't have kids . billy : i have kids , and they are the center of my world . this is my point . what 's going on ? amanda : i mean , could it really be that the only shared experience that we have is that we were at the same place at the same time when the lights went out in genoa city ? billy : i doubt it . anyway , we 'll figure it out at some point , i guess , right ? amanda : or maybe we will decide to stop analyzing it to death , and we 'll just accept it for what it is and enjoy each other 's company . billy : cheers to that . tessa : tanner came by to give me more information about the tour , but he was just leaving . tanner : i understand it 's you i have to thank for encouraging tessa to stick with her music . it 's a tough business . a lot of people would have given up . tessa : i could have easily been one of them . mariah : well , i was n't about to let her do that . she 's too talented . so do n't think you 're the only one who noticed . tanner : i 'm sure i 'm not . i mean , those videos you produced for her are brilliant . you showcased tessa perfectly as a songwriter and as a performer . i mean , once she gets a name for herself , that investment 's gon na pay off big- time then you 're gon na have acts from all over clamoring to hire you so you can do the same thing for them . i mean , you factor in the commissions and the merchandise sales ... tessa : well , you know , those are all really interesting points , ones that mariah and i will discuss later . alone . tanner : got it . tessa : since you have a girlfriend yourself , you must know , all that traveling is very disruptive to your personal life , and i 'm not sure if i 'm up for it . this is not an easy decision , and it 's not one that i will make rashly or impulsively . tanner : makes sense . i mean , you got to do you . but , um ... i 've got to hire an opening act . if you wait too long , the decision will be made for you . tessa : i understand . tanner : great . it was really nice to meet you . i hope we 'll be talking again soon . mariah : of course . tessa : oh , thank you . tessa : i am so , so sorry . i had no idea that he was just gon na show up here . mariah : it 's tanner 's way of underscoring just how much he wants you to go on tour with him . tessa : but all that matters to me is how you feel about it . so ... what are you thinking ? mariah : i think you should do it . summer : how long are you gon na keep pretending that you 're some wild child compared to kyle when , really , all you want to do is emulate him ? theo : kyle and i work at the same company . that is where the similarities end . summer : yeah , case in point , even though you had other options , you chose to work in the same office as kyle . i mean , for crying out loud . ashley offered you a job in paris , and any normal , unattached , ambitious guy your age would have jumped at that chance . it probably would have been a really great adventure , and i 'm sure more responsibility , better pay , even ... theo : you 're speculating . summer : you said that you wanted to stay because of me , and then you dumped me right after , so that was just bogus . theo : jack made me a great offer . i 'm building my career , getting to know my family ... summer : yeah , well , you probably would 've had an easier time building your career in paris without kyle breathing down your neck , and you do n't really attend that many abbott family gatherings . theo : it 's a process , all right ? summer : make all the excuses you want , theo , but i know the real reason why you decided to stick around town . and , unfortunately for you , she 's happily married . lola : what are you thinking ? kyle : this reminds me of the time we did your fantasy date at the athletic club . lola : and that 's when you told me you understood for the first time what it meant to be in love . kyle : by that point , i started to believe we might have a future together but i could n't imagine this future . now , here we are , married both working our dream jobs .... it all happened within a year . makes me excited to think about what 's coming for us . lola : hopefully good things . kyle : do n't sound too optimistic . lola : remember what i told you about my insecurities ? sometimes when things seem a little too perfect , i get this nagging thought in the back of my mind that it might not last . kyle : you 're not saying you 're afraid it wo n't work , are you ? lola : no , no . not our marriage . this honeymoon phase . i like it a lot , and i -- i would really miss it if it was gone . kyle : oh , well , we 'll just have to keep it going , then . lola : no one in either of our families has been able to do that , kyle . we have no good role models , and neither of us has ever been in a long - term , committed relationship before . kyle : we 're learning , right ? getting better and better at it . we both know what it means to work hard and sacrifice for the things we want , and ... i have never wanted anything more than i want a happy life with you ... lola rosales abbott . we 're going to have that together . we 'll get through anything . billy : oh , it was ridiculous . i was climbing the walls . as much as i complain about not having any time alone to clear my head , i had about 5 minutes of peace and quiet , and that was enough for me . amanda : well , it 's understandable . billy : is it , really ? amanda : yeah . you are an extrovert . you 're not into contemplating your own navel . you need to talk things through with someone else . billy : exactly , and , let me guess , you 're an introvert that would rather spend time alone . amanda : i actually prefer it most of the time . billy : figures ! amanda : what can i say ? i enjoy my own company . billy : oh , yeah . nice . amanda : but i 'm trying to be more social and make some new friends , especially since i 'm putting roots down here in genoa city . billy : how 's that going for you ? amanda : i do n't know . let 's see , um ... i stayed in touch with nate after i represented him . billy : he 's a good man . amanda : yeah . and i 'm getting to know phyllis . phyllis summers ? billy : yeah , i know phyllis summers . we have a history . not exactly a pretty one . amanda : oh . billy : yeah , we were together for a while , and , uh , when we got together , she was actually married to my brother jack . amanda : oh , wow . billy : and it kind of went downhill from there . amanda : yeah . billy : but as far as acquaintances or even friends , i think you could do worse . amanda : ringing endorsement , right there . billy : no , she 's cool , you know ? she 's -- she 's smart . she 's funny . she 's independent . i 'm not surprised you two are friends . sharon : oh , i did n't realize you two knew each other . billy : uh , amanda represented nate when he got in trouble with the , uh , medical board for helping victor assist his own death , and , um -- and victoria and the family were so thankful that she did a wonderful job because nate was able to keep his , uh , medical license . sharon : oh , that 's -- that 's really great , you know , that he kept his license because , you know , he 's a terrific doctor . billy : yeah . amanda : yes , i 'm just glad that i could help . sharon : yeah . excuse me . billy : [ clears throat ] amanda : [ clears throat ] i 'm gon na get going . billy : yeah , it 's , uh -- it 's getting late . well , i appreciate you letting me bend your ear . amanda : good night , billy . billy : good night . what are you doing , man ? you could have just said you were buds , you hit it off . sharon would n't have thought anything of it . people do that , you know . they make random friends . there 's nothing to hide . so why do you feel like you need to hide it ? mariah : tanner being here when i walked in has nothing to do with me encouraging you to go on tour with him . tessa : really ? mariah : i had made my mind up before i walked in the door . tessa : why ? mariah : on the drive over here , i was thinking about why you would have possibly lied to me about tanner , and ... i realized it was probably because you were scared that i would n't understand , and any decision made out of fear is almost always the wrong one . then it hit me . if you decide not to go on tour because you think that i 'm going to freak out or it 's going to ruin what we have , then ... that 's just another version of the same mistake . tessa : i do n't -- i do n't see it that way . mariah : tessa . this is what you were born to do . you ca n't pass this up . tessa : yeah , singing for a living is my dream , but it does n't have to happen right now , not like this . mariah : tessa ... tessa : look , if i 'm as talented as you and tanner think i am , i 'll have other opportunities , which may not include having me leave you for months , okay ? this is n't about fear , it 's about priorities . mariah : i would miss you like crazy , and i know you would miss me . but if you pass this up and then later on you regret it , i would just hate to be the reason why . tessa : i promise . i will own up to this decision , and i wo n't hold you or anyone else responsible . but that does mean i need to make it by myself , and i need to sleep on it because i can not think straight right now . mariah : whatever you decide , i promise you , i will support you . theo : have you shared your theory with kyle about my supposed interest in his wife ? summer : why , do you want me to ? theo : i 'll take that as a no . summer : no , i have n't said anything . theo : so either you do n't really believe it , or you do believe it and you 're hoping i succeed in breaking them up . summer : you know , that 's a really terrible thing to say . theo : i do n't hear a denial . summer : [ scoffs ] well , you know , you 're kind of making me wish you had actually gone to paris . we 'd all probably be better off . it 's not too late to go , you know . i 'm sure ashley would welcome you with open arms . theo : [ chuckles ] the perfect birthday gift for kyle -- me resigning to take a job on another continent , hmm ? maybe next year . for now , i 'm staying put . i have too much i want to accomplish here . and , before you ask , no , i 'm not gon na tell you what i mean by that . summer : fine . whatever you say , theo . i 'll see you at work . kyle : and ... bam ! there we go . i 'm now connected to the lighting and sound system . lola : what are you doing ? kyle : oh ... this . say goodbye to only one 'cause from now on there 'll be two of us whatever comes i 'll be right here by your side through day and night and now we 're here , and everything is right i 've waited a long time to say to you for better or worse i do stay here this waySummarize.[/INST]summer and theo discuss his feelings for lola which he insists he does n't have because they are just friends . victoria leaves billy because she has to go on a business trip . billy gets restless alone at home and heads to crimson lights to have coffee with amanda . kyle celebrates his birthday in a private celebration at society where they make plans for the future . mariah forgives tessa for not telling her about her ex husband tanner watts . tessa decides to sleep on it before she gives tanner an answer about going on tour with him .</s> | 16,113 |

[ scene_break ] ej : so , to the past . all yours . and to the future . all mine . [ door slams ] sami : what a night . where 's stefano ? ej : oh , he 's probably video - chatting with cecily . okay . you look like you could do with a drink . sami : no , i do not want a drink , ej . i want you .

[ chuckles ] gabi : are you sure ? nick : positive . what i was trying to say was that i 'm -- i 'm really glad that we talked . and i can see things more clearly now . i can see what 's important . gabi : and that 's ... nick : you . us . always . [ scene_break ] will : um , like you said , it 's kind of a touchy subject . sonny : here you go . something wrong ? rafe : just asking will about nick , trying to find out what the hell happened between them . will : sonny does n't -- let 's just leave sonny out of it . sonny : no , no , it 's cool . he 's just watching out for gabi . rafe : who , by the way , has n't been happy lately . sonny : and you 're guessing it 's because of nick ? rafe : well , i do n't wan na guess . i wan na know , you know ? i tried talking to nick earlier , and you actually came up , will . will : me ? rafe : mm - hmm . will : is he blaming me for gabi being unhappy ? rafe : no , he 's not , actually . i mentioned your name because i know that gabi wants you to be a part of this baby 's life . well , the second i did , he got really tense . so there 's a major problem between you two ? all right . i got my answer . do you wan na tell me what it is ? will : um -- i ca n't really get into it now . rafe : okay . thanks . sonny : thank you . anytime . rafe : yep .

[ laughs ] kate : good - bye . [ scene_break ] ej : my goodness . you were very enthusiastic this evening . sami : yeah , i guess i was . ej : was that the excitement of almost being caught by nick fallon or was it something else ? sami : it 's you . i 'm just incredibly turned on by my future husband . ej , there 's something i have to tell you . i saw stefano tonight . ej : you did ? doing what ? sami : he was talking to that guy , the cop , the dirty cop . the one that he has on his payroll , they were talking . ej : samantha , were you eavesdropping again ? sami : yeah , that 's how i get all my information . ej : okay , go on . sami : they were talking about the evidence . and stefano made it clear that he wanted that guy to get the evidence out of the evidence locker and then bring it to him , not destroy it . ej : really ? sami : so obviously stefano just wants to have it so he can have power over us . ej : possibly . it certainly fits a pattern . sami : he does n't wan na help will at all . he just wants to have that evidence , so he can use it against us whenever he feels like it . ej : [ sighs ] we 've always known the only person stefano dimera really looks out for is stefano dimera . come on . [ scene_break ] rafe : [ grunts ] kate : [ chuckles ] good morning . [ scene_break ] kate : i 'm sorry . [ sighs ] i had to . but we sure were good .

[ both laugh ] sonny : well , listen to that . will : no . [ fake crying ] sonny : i have n't heard you laugh like that in the longest time . will : i laugh all the time . sonny : not like that , not that letting - it - all - go kind of laugh -- the kind that you used to have . will : [ sighs ] sonny : it died when nick pulled that stunt . will : then -- i do n't know . then maybe i am celebrating then . sonny : you deserve it . will : mm . no , we deserve it . [ scene_break ] gabi : i mean , i 'm eating at the weirdest times and getting the strangest cravings . oh , my god . this place -- nick : i know . do n't even look at it , all right ? i want you to go in there and put on your pjs . and by the time you come out , i will have everything picked up . it 'll look like a maid came here . gabi : i could help you . i -- nick : no way . no bending and lifting for you , mama . pjs . all right ? gabi : okay . [ grunts ] nick : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] adrienne : oh , my gosh . in case i forgot to tell you , will and sonny seem perfectly cool about the whole sami - ej thing . and can you believe it ? it was -- like , i was sitting there , and i was the only one who could see how disgusting it was . sami crawling back into ej 's bed , it 's just -- justin ? justin : what ? adrienne : uh - oh . when some mysterious meeting sends you off into another world like this , it means it 's really big . which also means that it 's either something you really , really dread or something you 're really , really excited about . so which is it , baby ? justin : i 'm not sure . [ scene_break ] sami : just the idea of that guy having power over my son -- [ chuckles ] stefano dimera . it just is so frustrating , you know ? ej : well , you did n't let william that stefano 's holding onto the evidence , did you ? sami : no , of course not . we just got ta figure what we 're gon na do about that bastard . ej : well , why do n't you let me take care of that bastard ? hm ? | kate told rafe that the thing they had was over . he wanted to know why she was dumping him , but she would n't tell him . stefano met with a dirty cop to tell him to make the evidence disappear . sami was eavesdropping on their conversation . gabi wanted to know what was going on with nick or she was leaving him . ej met with justin so he could help him bring down stefano . justin could n't believe it . the cop told stefano that he could n't get rid of the evidence because it has been put away for so long . rafe believed stefano did something to make kate break up with him , but she said it had nothing to do with stefano . rafe did n't believe her . they continued to talk about breaking up . ej told justin his plan to destroy stefano and when he wanted it done . the dirty cop said he could pull some strings to destroy the evidence , but stefano did n't want the evidence destroyed . gabi wanted to know why nick destroyed their room . nick lied and said he lost the flash drive he needed for work . she wanted to know why he did n't tell her . he wanted to go out to eat so he could tell her everything . ej and justin continued to talk about ej 's plan to bring down stefano . justin tried to warn ej of what could happen if stefano catches on to the plan , but ej was n't worried . | <s>[INST] rafe : ugh . you 're looking awfully serious . what 's going on ? kate : i think you know . but i am gon na say it anyway . this thing that you and i have had is over . rafe : oh , well -- maybe we should go back to my place , talk it out , and see what happens . kate : sorry , no . rafe : huh . well , do i at least get a reason why ? kate : [ sighs ] rafe : right . stefano . stefano . [ scene_break ] stefano : [ humming ] ah , officer bernard . thank you for coming . [ clears throat ] i need your assistance . bernard : you know i 'm always glad to help , mr. dimera . stefano : the salem police department has certain evidence locked up in their evidence room . i want you to make it disappear . [ scene_break ] sonny : here you go -- a little something to keep you up all night so we can celebrate . will : thank you . i do n't know if we should celebrate just yet , but today has been a great day . sonny : it has . and you said stefano agreed to help get the police evidence ? will : yeah , and you deleted my confession off of nick 's computer . sonny : and do n't forget the backup drive . seriously , will , tomorrow is gon na be an amazing day . adrienne : oh , why 's that ? what 's happening tomorrow ? [ scene_break ] nick : gabi , look . gabi : no , stay away from me , okay ? nick : no , no . just listen to me , okay ? the reason that -- that i had to go out was -- gabi : i do n't care why you had to go out , okay ? my god . look at yourself in the mirror , nick . look at what you did to our room . i mean , you 've been acting weird for days . maggie can see it . my brother can see it . i can see it . this is the only chance i am gon na give you to explain everything , and i mean everything , or i am leaving . [ scene_break ] ej : well , i can imagine my call came as something of a surprise to you , so i will get straight to the point . i need your help with a rather delicate matter . over the next few months , i 'm intending on bringing about the complete and total destruction of stefano dimera . justin : [ laughs heartily ] really ? wow . you want to destroy stefano dimera ? well -- [ laughs ] that 's just fantastic . [ laughs ] [ scene_break ] stefano : this is the file number of the case , all right ? and the evidence pertains to the person that shot my son elvis several years ago . bernard : yeah , i remember this . it was one of the hortons . he did a stretch up in statesville . stefano : yeah , never mind . i want all the evidence that the police have on this case . clear ? bernard : well , i hate to say this , mr. dimera , but i ca n't do it . [ scene_break ] rafe : what did stefano do ? hm ? kate : [ sighs ] rafe : come on . just tell me . kate : it has absolutely nothing to do with stefano . rafe : really ? kate : it 's just that we 've been together for a while now . and frankly , it got a little serious . and i just never wanted anything like that . and so , i 'm ending it . it 's just the way it 's gon na have to be . rafe : well , i 'm not buying it . mm - mm . not for one second . [ scene_break ] justin : [ laughs heartily ] ej : i 'm glad i brought some amusement to your evening . justin : ej -- [ laughs ] i - i have to admit that , um -- [ clears throat ] destroying stefano , uh -- i can see , um , you 're serious . ej : oh , i 'm very serious . i intend to dismantle dimera enterprises and all of its subsidiaries , placing them fully under my control . now my target date is midsummer . justin : well , that 's -- ej : eminently doable . justin : you do realize that you 're telling this to a kiriakis ? ej : yes . but i believe i found precisely the right person to help me . [ scene_break ] stefano : do i have to explain to you about people on my payroll who say no to me ? bernard : well , mr. dimera , believe me . i would get that evidence for you if i could . stefano : then do it . bernard : well , see , the thing is , your son got himself shot a long time ago . and when a case has been closed longer than four years , the evidence goes into a secure lockup . you know , maybe i could , uh , pull a few strings and get myself inside somehow . stefano : mm , excellent . bernard : all right , so you want me to find the file on your son 's shooting and then destroy everything in the box , right ? stefano : wrong . i want you to destroy nothing . [ scene_break ] gabi : the first thing that i wan na know ... is what happened in here ? okay , why -- why in the world would you do this to our room ? nick : [ exhales ] [ grunts ] what the hell ? where could it be ? $ 30,000 just does n't disappear . [ panting ] jesus . gabi : nick ? nick : gabi , i -- [ sighs ] you know what ? the project that i 've been killing myself over , the one for kate -- for mad world -- gabi : i do n't wan na talk about that . i wan na talk about what happened in this room -- nick : i know that . but what happened is that i lost this flash drive with all of my work on it . all of it -- the formula that i created . gabi : nick , you back everything up . nick : i know , but the backup crashed . that 's what happened . and that 's why i went crazy looking around this room for the flash drive . but look , look . i found it . i found it . i was an idiot , and i just -- i had left it at work . [ chuckles ] but that 's why i went so crazy before . and that 's why i was acting weird . and what 's why i kind of took off . gabi : why did n't you just tell me this kind of stuff ? like , why do n't you just tell me ? nick : i do n't know . i just -- you 're under so much stress right now . i just figured you did n't need to hear about my stupid work problems . gabi : so what , you just shut me out ? is that how it 's gon na be ? nick : no , i -- [ sighs ] i was n't thinking . i 'm sorry . i was wrong . you were -- you were right . and we do need to talk more . we need to talk about everything . but gabi , you have to know how much i love you . you have to know that . listen , how about -- let 's go get a bite to eat , all right ? and we 'll talk . we 'll talk about everything . and i will not hold anything back . i promise you that , okay ? that 's a promise . we 'll make this work , because we love each other . we can make this work . [ scene_break ] sonny : uh -- [ clears throat ] tomorrow is just another day . adrienne : now come on , you two . you were just excited about tomorrow . sonny : mom -- adrienne : is it something to do with the baby ? will , i know it was hard for you to give up your parental rights . [ phone ringing ] will : no , it , um -- it really was . i think things are gon na start turning around . i 'm so sorry . i got a project with this guy at school . i 'm sorry . i 'll be right -- sonny : you know , um , what you did , helping me out -- adrienne : helping you out ? my god , i thought i was gon na have a heart attack . i knew you and sami were in nick 's room -- sonny : look , look -- adrienne : i tried to keep him out , but then he just went in . i 'm sorry . sonny : no , it 's okay . we were lucky . he never knew we were there . adrienne : oh , good . sonny : and now things might just work out . adrienne : what things , honey ? sonny : can we just not talk about it ? adrienne : ugh . sonny : can we just -- i know . adrienne : yeah , okay . it 's okay , i guess . you know what ? no . this is frustrating , all right ? i want you to tell me as soon as you can , please . sonny : i will , i promise you . and why are you here right now ? i thought you and dad were going out to dinner . did n't you have dinner plans ? adrienne : yeah , we did . we were , but he got called into a very mysterious meeting . sonny : is everything okay ? adrienne : i hope so . [ scene_break ] justin : ej , you have a whole gaggle of attorneys working for you . why not use them ? ej : well , because they all have ties . justin : to your father . ej : mm - hmm . and if there were to be a leak -- justin : if a kiriakis is handling the paperwork , it must be a kiriakis project . and no one would ever point towards you . ej : precisely . justin : clear enough . i just have one question though . what makes you think i would even consider doing this ? ej : because whatever it is you think of me , you think worse of my father . just imagine , for a moment , being the kiriakis who helped to take down the great stefano dimera . i think that 's too exciting an opportunity for you to turn down . do n't you ? [ scene_break ] bernard : but mr. dimera , if i get inside the evidence room and i find the evidence on your son 's case , why do n't i just destroy it ? stefano : why is none of your concern . you do just as your are told , all right ? you get all the evidence that is in that box , all of it , and you bring it to me . understood ? bernard : yes , sir . yes , sir . as soon as i go on duty tomorrow , i 'll find a way to get inside the evidence room . and i 'll bring it all to you . stefano : good . go . [ chuckles ] sami : stefano dimera -- what are you up to now ? [ scene_break ] kate : whether you 're buying what i 'm saying or not , it 's the truth and you 're going to have to accept it . rafe : okay . so , uh , run this by me again . somehow we got too involved ? kate : i have certain goals , and you and this involvement are getting in the way . and i just ca n't have that . rafe : huh . kate : you 're too much of a distraction . rafe : mm . well , i think you like it when i 'm distracting you . kate : it 's just too much . and it has to end , now . i mean , it 's not like we did n't discuss this in the beginning . rafe : kate -- kate : it 's not like we did n't know this little fling ... rafe : kate , kate -- kate : would come to an end . no , let 's not even argue about it . let 's just tell the truth , okay ? i mean , really , sooner or later , did n't you know this day would come ? [ scene_break ] adrienne : and the window was just full of baby clothes . it was so adorable . i just wanted to go in and buy everything . will : oh , yeah . um , i - i feel the same way . but , you know , i would n't wan na spoil my daughter , in her first year of life anyway . sonny : why not ? i think you should go for it . will : because then her -- hi . sami : hey , sweetheart , sonny . sonny : hey . adrienne : sami . sami : adrienne . sonny : come on , will , what do you say we get these ladies some lattes ? mocha ? sami : you got it . sonny : walnut ? adrienne : yes , please . sami : look , um , thank you again for helping us out today . adrienne : oh , sure . no problem . um , still do n't know what we were doing though . and you 're not gon na tell me . sami : sorry . adrienne : no , of course you are , of course you are . no , i helped will . that 's what counts . you know , i 'm thinking that now we 're kind of in the same boat . maybe we should bury the hatchet .

[ scene_break ] justin : ej . why would you do this to your father ? i thought you two decided to forgive and forget . ej : my father can believe whatever he wants to about our little reunion . justin : so obviously , you are not forgiving him for disowning you . ej : no . and i never will . justin : all right . well , look , if you 're expecting a decision tonight , uh -- ej : not at all . i took liberty of bringing you some paperwork to peruse . hopefully that will help you make up your mind , and you can give me an answer tomorrow morning . justin : and we are clear on the fact that there is nothing illegal ? ej : crystal . justin : good . ej , i 'm sorry . i just have to ask you -- do you really want to do this ? your father tends to chew up enemies and spit them out , very dead . if he ever gets wind of this -- ej : my father is somewhat distracted at the moment , so if i play my cards right and i have the right talented people helping me , he will not even see this coming . [ scene_break ] adrienne : i 'm sorry . that did n't come out the way i meant it to . sami : i think it did . but you do n't have to hide your feelings from me , adrienne , 'cause i do n't care what you think . ej and i are getting married and we 're both very happy about it . adrienne : well , hopefully this time 's a charm then . um , it 's three , right ? do n't go getting offended . some people lose track and -- will : here we are . walnut . adrienne : thank you . so sonny , why did n't you tell me that sami and ej were getting back in the saddle again ? sonny : [ exhales ] well , i did n't really think that was something i should be telling people . sami : thank you , sonny , but do n't worry about being discreet . now that your mom knows , everyone will . will , can i talk to you for a second , please ? will : yeah .

[ scene_break ] sami : so i happened to overhear stefano telling the cop that he has on his payroll to get the evidence . and the guy said that he would do it . will : so you 're telling me you followed stefano ? sami : well , no . i mean , i happened to see stefano when he was disappearing around a corner . and then i saw the cop following him , so i followed him . will : oh , so you followed the cop ? that 's much better . sami : the point is , as of tomorrow night , you are officially off the hook . is n't that what you wanted ? will : yeah , absolutely . i want my rights back . just not so thrilled about stefano being involved . sami : well , you 're right to be cautious , but we need to focus on the positive , okay ? we 're gon na get that evidence to disappear , and then we can relax and forget about it . will : okay . do you really think that 's gon na happen ? sami : of course . why would n't it ? will : i do n't know .

[ scene_break ] justin : any idea where she 's been all this time ? bill : in an apartment somewhere . taylor spotted her and followed her , convinced her to come home . justin : what 's her professional opinion ? bill : postpartum depression . justin : postpartum depression . wow . i would have never expected that with katie . liam : yeah , it 's not exactly something you can predict , you know ? justin : mm - hmm . bill : i hated her being gone . liam : well , it 's not exactly her fault . i mean , she had a heart attack and flatlined just after giving birth . imagine what she went through . plus all the hormonal changes . come on . bill : katie was convinced she was living on borrowed time . after what happened during delivery , she did n't think she was gon na be around to raise will . justin : wow . tough times for all . well , thank god that 's over . is n't it ? bill : well , she is continuing to -- to work with taylor . you know , make sure there is n't a - a relapse . justin : mm - hmm . bill : the good news is i was really able to bond with my son from day one ... justin : hmm . bill : which , unfortunately , was something i could n't do with liam . liam : yeah , but luckily , you handled him great . bill : but now i 'm gon na step back a bit , give katie and will the time they need . so , uh , lucky for you , slick , i 'm gon na be back around here . justin : oh , wow . ( chuckles ) bill : but i do n't know when katie will be back . justin : yeah , well , no problem . i 'm happy covering for her . liam : yeah , i can help with that , too , especially if you 're back . bill : it 's been , uh , you know , pretty rough , so i -- well , i want to thank you guys for taking up the slack . hopefully , now things can get back to normal . [ scene_break ] hope : how are you really ? i mean , you seem to be functioning okay , but i know that this is a horrible time . first ridge , and then katie and -- and stephanie . brooke : i have n't really been able to process it all . ( sighs ) helping out with will has been really good for me . but now katie 's back . thank god . so tell me about you . how 's everything with you ? hope : uh , you know , kind of in the same boat . just trying to sort things out . brooke : liam ? hope : i just do n't understand how things went so wrong . [ scene_break ] rick : so the first time that liam messed up was at his bachelor party . he -- he got too drunk . and actually , steffy was there to drive him home . uh , they started kissing in the car . hope saw them . they did n't see her . so she wrote a note , along with her engagement ring , and broke things off . you 'd think that the guy would try to find her to make things right . caroline : and he did n't . rick : well , in all fairness , he tried to call her , but she did n't want to talk to him . but that same night , what did he do ? he put the ring on steffy 's finger and took her to bed . yeah . that 's exactly what bill wanted . he could n't get 'em married fast enough . so he sent 'em to aspen , where steffy arranged an ambush wedding at the top of ajax mountain . lured liam there . in the meantime , hope has second thoughts . she wants to go to aspen . so i go with her for support , just in case she gets hurt again . and she did , because somehow , bill and steffy arranged for her to get stuck in a gondola and forced her to watch liam marry steffy . caroline : how awful . oh ... rick : it gets worse . [ scene_break ] hope : every time i 'd think we 'd gotten through the worst of it , something else would happen . always having to do with steffy . what is it about her ? why ca n't liam stay away from her ? ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] rick : liam ca n't stay away from steffy . italy was it for me . i did n't know about bill 's involvement getting deacon there , but what i do know is that my sister was late for the ceremony 'cause she was spending time with her father , who she has n't seen in years . and instead of liam waiting for her , what does he do ? he ends up in bed with steffy , accidentally recorded on video that my sister inadvertently saw . [ scene_break ] hope : ( sighs ) i should have cut my losses when i saw that video , but , oh , no , not miss optimism . i planned another wedding , and then liam and steffy have a make - out session the night before . [ scene_break ] rick : liam should have never gone out with steffy the night before he was supposed to marry hope again . but he just can not stay away from her . caroline : ( sighs ) rick : and that 's why i convinced othello to lie . so i could put an end to this thing once and for all . caroline : now we know that deacon going to italy was bill 's doing . you 're clinging to a lie , and it 's keeping two people who love each other apart . this has to end , rick . rick : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] brooke : it breaks my heart to see you in so much pain . hope : oh , i 'll be fine . it 's a process , right ? for both of us . you know , every time i start to feel really bad for myself , i just think about all the things that i have to be grateful for , like katie coming home . you and bill must have been blown away . brooke : you could say that . hope : i 'm sure you were relieved . it ca n't have been easy to spend all that time with bill . brooke : he 's not really as bad as you would think . hope : you are joking , right ? brooke : no , really . i mean , the circumstances sort of stripped him down . he had to take care of will , and he was really worried about katie . so he did n't have that ... `` king of the mountain `` attitude . he had to be real . you know , he was just bill . i could understand why katie fell in love with him . [ scene_break ] bill : so , firstborn son , how are things with you ? liam : pretty darn great . bill : living arrangements are working out ? liam : every day , steffy 's a revelation . bill : i hope you 're just enjoying that , living in the moment , not planning any walks down the aisle anytime soon . liam : oh , no . ( chuckles ) no , believe me , marriage is , uh , far from being on the table . we 're just , you know , enjoying each other , taking it day by day . but , um , i do love her . bill : no kidding . liam : yeah , you called it . okay ? bill : so i was right ? liam : look , just do n't break your arm patting yourself on the back . bill : hey , i 'm just saying , you know , when the old man gives you some advice , you might want to listen to it , avoid a - a lot of aggravation . liam : okay , i 'll keep that in mind . bill : anything else you want to tell me ? liam : like business or family ? bill : either one . liam : well -- oh , well , there 's caroline . bill : what about her ? liam : well , it seems like she and rick are getting pretty serious . bill : so thomas is out of the picture ? liam : oh , yeah , way out . rick saw to that . he -- he wanted the girl , bided his time , slithered on in there . thomas did n't even know what hit him . bill : you do n't sound too happy about that . liam : i mean , you know , i 'm not a huge fan of either one , but , uh , i guess if caroline 's happy , that 's all that matters . right ? [ scene_break ] rick : okay , i 'll admit it . it was selfish . but if i tell hope that i lied , she might never forgive me . caroline : just be as honest with her as you are with me . tell her why you did it , that you did n't want to see her get hurt again . rick : i just do n't think that 's gon na cut it . caroline : no . she 's gon na be really upset with you . rick : ohh . caroline : but is n't that better than living with this on your conscience ? you told me that you wanted us to be together because you thought together that we could do anything . rick : and i believe that . caroline : so do i . but i do n't want us to start off clouded by this . hope is your sister , and liam is my cousin . they 're family . we ca n't keep deceiving them . it 's wrong . rick : okay . okay , we 'll tell them . but know that i told this lie out of the best of intentions , for the love of my sister , all right ? but she 's miserable . she 's miserable because of me . caroline : and bill . rick : look , i 'm not responsible for bill 's actions . but what i did , i need to fix . [ scene_break ] ( cell phone rings ) hope : hey . rick : where are you ? hope : i 'm at mom 's . what 's up ? rick : are you gon na be there a while ? hope : yeah , for a bit . why ? rick : i need to tell you something . it 's important . hope : okay . i 'll see you soon . rick : all right . we right the wrong . caroline : i love you . [ scene_break ] bill : have you told caroline you have reservations about rick ? liam : aah . it 's not really my place , is it ? i mean -- bill : of course , it 's your place . she 's your cousin . you got ta look out for family . liam : oh , yeah ? yeah ? like you ? bill : well , did n't you just tell me that i was right about steffy ? huh ? huh ? liam : i ... ( sighs ) bill : do you want me to talk to her ? liam : no . you -- hey -- you -- you go ahead and sit this one out . bill : listen , i do n't want to see caroline get hurt any more than you do . i like her . i think she 's a good addition to the family . liam : yeah , me , too . speaking of which , you got ta be really excited that katie 's back . okay , what -- that -- see , what is that look , dad ? because you -- you gave that same look to justin . bill : no . no . ( scoffs ) come on . of -- of course , i 'm glad that katie 's back . it 's just this , uh , postpartum depression -- what is it ? and -- and how -- how do we fight it ? and -- and what if it comes back ? liam : it 's not coming back . it 's not . bill : can i get that in writing ? liam : well , no . but you know , i 'm sure taylor 's on top of it . i mean , katie 's still seeing her , right ? look , dad , katie is thrilled to be back with her new baby . you got nothing to worry about . bill : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] brooke : so ... ( sighs ) how are things with thomas in charge ? hope : um ... ( sighs ) kind of in a holding pattern right now . eric stepped in and -- and kind of slowed thomas down . brooke : is he playing nicely with rick ? hope : well , no one 's been thrown through a window lately , so that 's good . but he does not like working for thomas . brooke : ( sighs ) how are he and caroline ? hope : they 're great , actually . they are . i think she 's probably the reason why he has n't flipped out . brooke : good . hope : mm - hmm . brooke : she 's a good person . that 's the kind of woman he deserves . hope : yeah . she really brings out the best in him . [ scene_break ] rick : ( chuckles ) ( sighs ) caroline : thank you . rick : for doing the right thing ? caroline : i know that this is really hard for you . rick : well , hope deserves the truth . i just do n't want to lose her . caroline : no , no , you wo n't . you wo n't . she may be furious at first , but she 's gon na understand that you only lied to protect her . i 'll make sure of that . rick : i knew that this is how it would be for us . working through this stuff together , helping each other out . i like the man i want to be for you . caroline : i 'm pretty crazy about the man you already are . rick : you 're the best thing that 's ever happened to me in my life .

[ scene_break ] nikolas : it is a little late in the year for sardinia , but that could serve us well because the weather 's still quite moderate and it 's not too crowded right now . it 's easy to get there from most anywhere in europe , which means i can finalize this damn business deal i 've been working on . we can leave almost immediately , spend a few days in paris or rome first , all right -- you pick . emily : that sounds so wonderful -- nikolas : okay . emily : okay , but , unfortunately , there is a little bit of a problem . nikolas : well , fortunately , i 'm a great problem - fixer . emily : yeah , but not this one -- it 's called my internship . nikolas : emily , you 've been working nonstop almost the entire summer . you ca n't take any time off ? emily : it does n't exactly work that way . nikolas : well , maybe not for the other interns , but the majority of your family sits on the board , and your boyfriend 's one of the hospital 's main benefactors . that entitles you to special treatment , i think . emily : nikolas , i just would n't feel comfortable accepting it . i 'm so sorry to disappoint you -- i can see how badly you want to take this trip -- but there is no way that i can go right now . [ scene_break ] maxie : can you see three things wrong with this picture ? lulu 's never been big on food service , she 's probably one of the worst waitresses to ever darken kelly 's door -- and , trust me , there have been some doozies . but she 's getting all the orders right -- that practically never happens . all smiley and bright -- yeah . lulu definitely got her world rocked last night by logan or somebody else -- i mean , i ca n't really think of another candidate . there 's always milo , but i doubt he 'd jump to the front of the line . that would only leave -- you . you 're not holding out on me , are you , spinelli ? spinelli : the jackal does n't speculate on what the blond one does in her personal life . what she does and whoever is fortunate enough to do it with her is none of my business , and it is certainly none of yours . maxie : do n't get all huffy . it 's not like i 'm spreading gossip or anything . i 'm just helping you come to terms with the painful reality -- lulu : that 's enough . move along . maxie : excuse me ? lulu : stop harassing spinelli , or you 're going to be wearing this coffee . maxie : whatever . i was actually commiserating with spinelli . i actually care about the poor dupe 's feelings -- unlike you , miss glowing - from - within . lulu : what was that bitch tormenting you about ?

[ scene_break ] carly : it 's all jerry 's fault . not that that should be a big surprise , because he sent jax away so he could get on my good side . jason : all right , let me see if i can just guess what happened , okay ? jax dropped out of sight , he was grabbed and held prisoner by some enemy of jerry 's , and considering the type of people jerry deals with , this enemy was crazy as hell , right ? carly : yeah -- that , and a sexual predator . jason : did someone hurt you ? carly : yeah -- well , not in the way you 're thinking . jax was held captive by jerry 's demented ex - girlfriend . they were spies together or something , and she was supposed to be dead . he was tortured into giving her up , and she was shot right in front of him , but -- surprise , surprise -- she turned out to be very much alive , and pretty ticked off that jerry had betrayed her . so she decided to turn the tables on jerry and make him watch while she killed jax . never simple , is it ? so , i guess , while she was waiting for jerry to find jax , she got a little bored and she slept with him . jason : why do you care if this woman slept with jerry ? carly : i do n't , i care that she slept with jax . yeah , my husband slept with another woman -- something i came to expect from sonny , not from jax . not in a million years . [ carly sighs ] [ scene_break ] jax : excuse me ; i need to speak with mr. jacks . epiphany : and while you 're doing that , i 'll go find that specialist for you . jax : i appreciate that . epiphany : mm - hmm . jax : jerry , i 've said all i want to say to you . jerry : well , to ease your mind -- or , more to the point , carly 's -- i think you have nothing to worry about . i 'm fairly certain that irina -- may she rest in peace -- was a carrier of nothing but concentrated rage . she was always very fastidious to a point . is my brother still mad at me ? jax : please do n't remind me that we 're family . it 's an uncomfortable association -- since i just watched you murder the woman you claimed to love . jerry : i did that to save your lives , so do n't expect me to apologize . i 'd do it again . [ scene_break ] spinelli : the bad blond one takes any and all opportunities to torment the jackal . it 's nothing new . lulu : it was about me , was n't it ? maxie 's hurting you is maxie 's way of getting back at me . spinelli : i -- i appreciate your concern , but i -- i do n't really pay attention to the dark nuggets that fly out of the witchy one 's perpetually moving mouth , so you do n't need to waste your valuable concern on me . lulu : you ca n't stop me from caring about you , and , obviously , one of maxie 's arrows hit its mark , because i can tell that you 're upset . spinelli : no , no , no . the fair lulu misunderstood . see , i was n't upset , i was just -- i was outraged at the falsehoods she was perpetrating , is all . lulu : tell me what that lying tramp was saying about me , because i 'll go over there and shut her up myself . spinelli : your impulse to protect me touches me to my soul , but i -- look , you ca n't -- you ca n't stop maxie from saying what she wants to say , and how i deal with it is my problem , not yours . and , anyway , i 'm sure you have many other things that are demanding your attention . lulu : why do i get the feeling there 's something you 're not telling me ? logan : hey . lulu : hey . logan : am i interrupting ? spinelli : it 's never stopped you before . lulu : oh -- logan : you know , i can go sit someplace else . lulu : no , i do n't think that 's necessary -- right , spinelli ? spinelli : wherever the crabby commando sits is not up to the jackal . lulu : i 'm actually really glad that logan 's here , because now you two have the opportunity to make peace . [ scene_break ] emily : is jax sick ? epiphany : if mr. jacks wanted you to know , he 'd tell you . [ scene_break ] jax : i told you to disappear . i meant it . i do n't want you around me or my family . and when you find yourself in trouble again , you 're on your own . i do n't want to know about it , and i 'm certainly not going to lift a finger to help you . jerry : i see . in other words , you 're wishing me dead . jax : you already are . the brother i loved ? the man that i was willing to risk anything for ? he 's long gone . all that 's left is james craig -- or brosnan or whatever the hell you call yourself . i do n't know you anymore , and i do n't care to . [ scene_break ] carly : when irina held jax prisoner , she amused herself by having him beaten -- which , i 'm sure , was very horrible for him . so if i were a better person , i would be grateful that she moved on from torturing him to wanting to sleep with him . i me , it 's not like jax was a willing participant at all . i mean , he was basically raped . do n't . do n't -- do n't even look like that . it 's not funny . guys can be forced into it , sort of , especially when the woman in question is threatening to kill me and my children . so if jax had to do that to keep himself alive until jerry and i could get there , i -- i 'm going to have to find a way to deal with it and find a way to live with it , okay , and i will . what i ca n't get past is that he left me . i stood there and i begged him not to go , and he left anyway . jason : i mean , i do n't even know what to say at this point . carly : yeah , i know -- [ carly chuckles ] carly : join the club . jason : i need you to listen to me for a second , okay ? [ carly sighs ] jason : we have bigger problems to deal with . [ scene_break ] ric : anthony zacchara is one of the biggest , one of the dirtiest crime lords in all of manhattan . i guess he could afford your obscenely expensive retainer , since you never really cared one way or another whether your clients are guilty or innocent . as long as they 're socially connected or can pay through the nose , i guess that 's why you represent them . trevor : you know , this little moral story that you 're talking about would really be funny if it was n't pathetic . any client that i choose to represent gets the absolute best litigation for the dollar . ric : of course . trevor : unfortunately , your taxpayers are telling me that you 're squandering their money . come on , forget about it . okay , mr. d.a . , talk to your father . did you really manage not to prove that the murder victim was dead ? ooh .

[ scene_break ] spinelli : the bad blond one takes any and all opportunities to torment the jackal . it 's nothing new . lulu : it was about me , was n't it ? maxie 's hurting you is maxie 's way of getting back at me . spinelli : i -- i appreciate your concern , but i -- i do n't really pay attention to the dark nuggets that fly out of the witchy one 's perpetually moving mouth , so you do n't need to waste your valuable concern on me . lulu : you ca n't stop me from caring about you , and , obviously , one of maxie 's arrows hit its mark , because i can tell that you 're upset . spinelli : no , no , no . the fair lulu misunderstood . see , i was n't upset , i was just -- i was outraged at the falsehoods she was perpetrating , is all . lulu : tell me what that lying tramp was saying about me , because i 'll go over there and shut her up myself . spinelli : your impulse to protect me touches me to my soul , but i -- look , you ca n't -- you ca n't stop maxie from saying what she wants to say , and how i deal with it is my problem , not yours . and , anyway , i 'm sure you have many other things that are demanding your attention . lulu : why do i get the feeling there 's something you 're not telling me ? logan : hey . lulu : hey . logan : am i interrupting ? spinelli : it 's never stopped you before . lulu : oh -- logan : you know , i can go sit someplace else . lulu : no , i do n't think that 's necessary -- right , spinelli ? spinelli : wherever the crabby commando sits is not up to the jackal . lulu : i 'm actually really glad that logan 's here , because now you two have the opportunity to make peace . [ scene_break ] emily : is jax sick ? epiphany : if mr. jacks wanted you to know , he 'd tell you .

[ scene_break ] carly : when irina held jax prisoner , she amused herself by having him beaten -- which , i 'm sure , was very horrible for him . so if i were a better person , i would be grateful that she moved on from torturing him to wanting to sleep with him . i me , it 's not like jax was a willing participant at all . i mean , he was basically raped . do n't . do n't -- do n't even look like that . it 's not funny . guys can be forced into it , sort of , especially when the woman in question is threatening to kill me and my children . so if jax had to do that to keep himself alive until jerry and i could get there , i -- i 'm going to have to find a way to deal with it and find a way to live with it , okay , and i will . what i ca n't get past is that he left me . i stood there and i begged him not to go , and he left anyway . jason : i mean , i do n't even know what to say at this point . carly : yeah , i know -- [ carly chuckles ] carly : join the club . jason : i need you to listen to me for a second , okay ?

[ sighs ] i 'm just so embarrassed . dylan : no , no , do n't be . we are friends , and , uh , yeah , maybe we did n't communicate too well . sharon : i swear this is just a thank you , just pasta and chianti . but , i mean , if it 's too awkward now -- dylan : it 's not that it 's -- no , it 's not that it 's awkward , you know . i just got some things to handle with avery and , uh , austin 's memorial service . sharon : oh , right . the -- the service is tonight . you did n't go ? dylan : no , i -- no , i did n't . sharon : yeah , i did n't go , either , obviously . summer kind of hates me right now . but nick and i are in a better place about faith . still , we 're not exactly a family unit . as much as i would like to be there for summer , she does n't want that from me right now . so here i am . and i did n't even get the pasta water to boil , and i already scared you off . dylan : [ chuckles ] i do n't really , uh , scare that easy . but you know what ? how about -- how about a rain check ? and i 'll even bring dessert . sharon : rain check it is . and brownies . for the record , bring brownies next time . dylan : will do . uh , sharon , actually , chianti goes with all kinds of things , right ? sharon : yeah , it does . dylan : well , uh , since you did n't get the water boiling ... how about chinese food ? sharon : i 'll get the menus . nikki : victor , you ca n't torture yourself about adam . he fled the scene of a crime . he destroyed evidence . that has nothing to do with what happened tonight . victor : sweetheart , it started with a car accident . nikki : which i have been completely forthright about . i told you -- i was driving , christine rushed out into the street . i had no time to stop ! victor : listen to me . i know there 's more . nikki : no , there is not more . victor : why the hell wo n't you trust me to help you ? nikki : why do n't you trust that i 'm telling you the truth ? i hope we 're not too far gone that i ca n't count on you right now .

[ voice breaking ] where my wife was crying over the loss of our daughter . so do n't you dare tell me there is no wrongdoing ! victor : i 'm very sorry . nikki : i know how much you wanted this baby , both of you . i know how wanted this child was . victor : you have my deepest sympathies . paul : i 'll need to speak with you in private . victor : your officer here took nikki 's statement and the results of the breathalyzer test . there 's nothing else she needs to talk about . paul : that 's my job to decide , victor , not yours . nikki : paul , i - i can tell you what happened over and over , but that 's still not gon na give you what you need . paul : you know what i need ? nikki : you need what anybody would want at a time like this -- to know why this horrible thing happened . but we 're not ever gon na know that . i would do anything to fix it . i truly would . victor : paul , as your friend , you 're the chief of police . but i 've got to tell you that you are not in an emotional state to do any further interrogation in this case . i think you should recuse yourself and appoint someone else to do the job . paul : you know , i 'm not asking you in there to browbeat you . i just need to hear it myself , okay ? i need to know . nikki : it 's all right . you can talk to me , paul . you can talk to me as long as you like . are you family ? neil : um , well , i 'm -- i 'm a worried friend . i just want to know how -- how she is . she 's very lucky . neil : it was that bad ? and the baby ? come on . you can tell me . i 'm -- i 'm just about like family . did ... did she lose the baby ? christine : neil . neil : christine . i am so sorry . christine : come in . neil : i figured you 'd be sleeping , and the doctor probably wants you to sleep , you know . christine : they were sort of paul 's orders , but the -- the dream , it ... i knew it was a bad idea . it was so nice of you to come . thank you . neil : i - i heard about the accident . christine : no accident . neil : what ? i do n't understand . did they tell you what happened ? christine : i know exactly what happened . i saw the car swerve right at me . it came right -- neil : no , chris , no -- christine : yes , neil , i saw it . i - i felt it . i - i had nowhere to go . neil : chris , it -- it was an accident . there was nothing deliberate about it . i mean , nikki would never willingly hurt you . christine : nikki ? nick : look , sweetheart , i know you 're upset , and i feel terribly for you , but avery does not deserve to be talked to like that . summer : i just want to know why people cheat . all of you have done it . have n't you ? you have all decided that you wanted to have sex with someone more than you wanted to protect the person that you loved . austin was my first . he was my only , and i knew deep down in me that i would never want to be with somebody else . even if i had a crush or an infatuation , i would never want to hurt him . but all of you made a different choice , did n't you ? jack : yes , we -- we all made choices . summer : why ? why was n't i enough for austin ? was it because i was n't experienced enough ? was it because he did n't really love me ? jack : summer , it was n't anything you did , i promise . summer : you do n't know that . you were married , and you decided that you wanted to be with dylan . every time you were together , you made a choice . why did you want dylan more than the person that you were married to ? avery : summer , i was n't a good wife to joe . our -- our marriage , he and i had just -- it did n't work out the way it should have . summer : because he was n't enough for you . avery : i 'm not saying that . he was constantly working and -- summer : so you punished him ? avery : i fell in love with someone else . summer : well , maybe that 's it . maybe austin fell in love with abby . phyllis : i seriously doubt love had anything to do with it , sweetie . summer : do you blame joe ? avery : i used to . summer : used to ? so , now who do you blame ? do you blame yourself ? do you blame dylan ? do you -- do you wish you would have actually tried with joe ? do you wish you would have never hurt him ? or do you just wish that no one would have ever found out the truth ? ! nick : summer . avery : i do n't have the answers for you , summer . i 'm sorry . and i ... i 'm sorry you 're hurting so much . okay . summer : i really did n't mean to go her . i swear i did n't . [ sighs ] phyllis : what austin did was selfish , and he hurt you . this was not your fault . you got it ? courtney : summer was right . you knew . what happened to all being in this together ? why the hell did n't you say something ? mariah : i did n't find out until that night . and considering we had a dead body on our hands , my mind was elsewhere . what about you ? you were gon na spring it on summer on valentine 's day ? and then when austin ended up dead , you did n't bother telling any of us . kyle : you think i was gon na tell you guys about austin before i told summer ? no . not happening . courtney : yeah , because you do know i 'm a cop , right ? kyle : a cop covering up a crime . i 'd say you 've lost the high ground in this one . kevin : we were covering for summer . courtney : yeah , well , what if we were wrong about that ? what if it was n't her we were covering for ? kyle : i ca n't believe this . you guys really want to come at me about this again ? kevin : you making it look like summer killed her husband entitles us to come at you . kyle : you do n't even know who you 're covering for . you could be covering for yourselves ! you have no idea ! all we know is that austin was cheating on summer , and now he 's in a casket . kevin : and he did n't get there by himself . somebody wanted him dead . mariah : so , there we go . who would be that mad and angry and jealous ? who would do something like that ? dylan : [ sighs ] pasta is great . not cooking sometimes ... sharon : yeah , sometimes even better . [ chuckles ] i think we finished everything . yeah . except you 're still wearing some of it . dylan : did i get it ? sharon : here . hold still . i 'll get it .

[ sighs ] mia : thanks , baby . you know ... there 's one way to improve it . [ rey groaning ] reed : i 'm the reason that you 're hooked up to all these machines , fighting for your life . i was driving the car that hit you . i did n't know . not at the time . i promise . i ... i did n't realize what i had done until the next day . i know i should just come out and admit it , but ... i 'm scared . [ sighs ] and ashamed , and ... i ca n't believe that you could die because of me . [ sobs ] i love you so much , grandma . and i 'm so , so sorry . [ crying ] if you can hear me , i know what you 're thinking . and it 's true . [ sighs ] this makes me just as bad as my father . nate : [ sighs ] the test did n't furnish us with any helpful information . victoria : what does that mean ? nick : what are you going to do for my mother ? because if you or your staff ca n't come up with any answers , then i will find someone who can . nate : there 's no time for that . and i promise you , no one is going to tell you anything different . we have done all we can . now you need to find your father and get him here . phyllis : what are you saying ? nate : i 'm saying that i think you all need to prepare for the worst . | nick is by nikki 's bedside asking nate about his mom 's status . nate tells him nikki 's condition is not improving and that her condition is complicated and she needs more tests . back at victoria 's billy is excited about the concert . reed sits listening . victoria wants to go see her mom but billy insists she go to the concert . reed stops her and tells her it 's not her fault as johnny enters the room in his costume . victoria gets a call from nick who tells her to come to the hospital . kyle and lola are at his house where jack congratulates lola on her new job . kyle and lola are headed to lola 's family 's christmas party . kyle is worried he may be overdressed . jack hints at his special plans for kerry but only elaborates to an epic surprise for her . rey and mia are getting ready for the party and mia is thrilled she and rey are in a better place . mia tells him she invited sharon and that she wants to become friends with sharon also . meanwhile sharon is dropping off food for nick and asks for an update . nick gets upset and near tears telling her nikki is n't getting better . he is upset at how much nikki kept to herself and how he wishes she had confided in him . sharon hugs him and phyllis rounds the corner . at dark horse arturo has an early present for abbey and then asks her to attend the rosales ' christmas party . abbey thinks the early present is a bribe to get her to attend the party . she does n't want a repeat of thanksgiving . arturo tells her that he wants them to see how strong they are together . he tells abbey that everyone thinks of him as a screw up and that they ca n't see how he is with someone like abbey . abbey kisses him and agrees to go and then opens the present . arturo got her an outdoor jacket for camping . abbey is n't keen on camping and says a vacation should never involve sleeping outside . she is more into glamping than outdoor camping . at victoria 's , reed insists on going to the hospital instead of the christmas pageant . at the hospital phyllis comes forward interrupting nick and sharon and asks if something happened to nikki . sharon reminds nick of his strong bond with nikki and that she knows he is here . phyllis thanks sharon for caring and sharon mentions the importance of putting their issues aside and she then leaves . nick tells phyllis he does n't want her to read anything into sharon coming to the hospital . reed arrives and listens to everyone talking about the scum that hit nikki . victoria and reed go in to see nikki . reed walks slowly over to nikki , clearly upset . | <s>[INST] [ previously_on ] kerry : glad i stuck around . jack : that makes two of us . kerry : definitely worth the wait . mia : i never want anything to keep us apart ever again . sharon : why do n't you go for a long drive and see the leaves changing ? rey : [ sighs ] i hope to do that someday . sharon : promise me you 'll take someone along . a trip like that 's no fun alone . mia : i have some great anti - aging tips i think you might need . abby : [ scoffs ] why do n't you give 'em a try on yourself first and then give me a holler . [ loud thud ] reed : [ gasps ] what was that ? ! charlie : i do n't know . did we hit something ? reed : i ca n't keep this secret . i have to confess what i 've done . nick : do your thing . 'cause with or without your help , i 'm gon na find the person who did this . and when i do , he 's gon na pay . any word from dad ? victoria : maybe dad 's on his way home now . nick : does n't mean he 's gon na get here in time . nick : how is she doing , really ? nate : just , the previous tests , they fail to explain -- nick : please just ... just bottom - line it , all right ? i mean , it 's just us here . nate : her condition 's not improving . i was hoping that she would have regained consciousness by now . nick : well , my dad was in a coma a lot longer than this , and he made a full recovery . nate : her injuries are different . they 're more complicated . we 're dealing with a whole nother set of variables . nick : because of the m.s . ? nate : it 's not a factor . but i 'm going to repeat her blood chemistries . we 're still searching for more subtle reasons for her unconsciousness . nick : my mom 's tough . you know that . she 's tough enough to get through this . nate : yes . but the longer she does n't wake up , the worse her prognosis . [ sighs ] i 'll see about ordering those tests . billy : the star of the first - grade christmas pageant will be making his way down very , very shortly . hannah and katie are helping him with his costume . victoria : did katie change her mind about coming ? billy : ooh , on the contrary . hannah 's gon na take her and a couple friends to the movies , and grab some pizza after . gon na have a little mini girls ' night out . victoria : billy , i think that maybe -- maybe you and reed should drop me off at the hospital on your way . i know -- i know that johnny 's really looking forward to this and everything , and thanks to you , but it 's my mom . i just feel like i need to be with her right now . billy : and you will be with her -- as soon as we 're done with johnny 's little thing . and i think your mom would rather you go . and , look , if anything changes , you jump in my car , and you go straight to the hospital -- victoria : how did this even happen ? ! this is my mother . we 've been down this road before . how could i not know that she & was drinking again ? reed : this is n't your fault , mom . billy : whoa ! whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa ! everybody , can i please get your attention ! there is a real , live snowman coming into the living room as we speak . victoria : oh , my gosh ! is it even possible ? billy : frosty , have you seen johnny ? ca n't find him anywhere . do you know where he is ? johnny : dad ... billy : what ? i ca n't find him . victoria : if i hug you , am i gon na get frostbite ? billy : yes . for sure . [ cellphone rings ] look so good . come here . let me just fix this a little bit . victoria : it 's nick . hey . hi . billy : where does it go ? victoria : how 's mom ? nick : [ sighs ] no change . that 's the problem . the longer that she does n't wake up ... vick , you should probably get here soon . lola : [ sighs ] i 'm still not used to these midwestern winters . kyle : yeah , you can take the girl out of miami ... lola : mm . i feel warmer already . kyle : mmm . lola : [ gasps ] check these out . this place is a christmas wonderland . kyle : [ sighs ] dad loves getting into the spirit ... by hiring the best holiday decorator in wisconsin . jack : i will have you know that that tree was decorated entirely by kerry and me . hi , lola . nice to see you . lola : [ chuckles ] you too , mr. abbott . jack : no , jack . remember ? jack . hey , i did n't get much of a chance to talk to you at the jabot holiday party , but congratulations on your new job . kyle : head chef at abby and devon 's killer new restaurant . lola : he knows . jack : i know . kyle : [ chuckles ] lola : they 're putting so much faith in me , and i hope i am up for the challenge . thank you . kyle : eh , she 's being way too modest . her food was the inspiration for this whole idea . lola : mm , no . i am pretty sure that would be money - making . kyle : oh , yeah ? lola : yeah . kyle : they 're gon na be striking gold every night with you on their team . lola : are you gon na be like this all night ? kyle : mm - hmm . lola : we 're going to my family 's christmas party . kyle : as soon as i change my clothes . lola : there is nothing wrong with your clothes -- as usual . kyle : thanks . but tonight calls for something a little more casual . i do n't want your family thinking i 'm stuck up . jack : and you think you can fix that with a costume change ? i do n't think he owns anything that casual . lola : well , who does ? jack : you know what , once they see how you treat their sister , they wo n't care how much you spend on your shoes . kyle : i 'm going to change these now . thanks for reminding me , dad . jack : you 're welcome . hey , by the way , i owe you two a thanks . lola : really ? for what ? jack : well , once i heard about kyle 's romantic stroke of genius -- you know , bringing miami beach here -- it inspired me to do something equally special for kerry . kyle : so , what 's your plan ? jack : well , it starts with dinner to set the mood ... lola : ooh . romance plus dinner . kyle : always a winner . and then what ? jack : and then ... a surprise that your generation would call `` epic . `` lola : [ laughs ] mia : i 'm excited about this . having the family together in our new home . feels like that now . like home . now that you and i are ... in a better place . rey : just , uh , promise me you 'll manage your expectations . mia : they 're realistic . but if you do n't make the effort , things never get better , right ? and what better time to try ? rey : peace on earth . goodwill toward -- mia : whoever could use some . rey : mm . mia : which is why i invited sharon . rey : you did ? mia : she 's been such a good friend to you . you work together . we live in her building . she 's part of our lives , so i want to become friends with her , too . sharon : hey . nick : hey . sharon : um , here 's hot coffee , muffins , cinnamon rolls -- all your favorites . i know how you feel about the cafeteria here . it 's a way for them to fill beds . [ chuckles ] nick : thanks . i could use this . sharon : so ... what did nate say ? how 's nikki doing ? nick : the words are a blur . but the look on his face ... [ sobs quietly ] she 's not getting better . and , uh ... you know , he does n't want us to cling to false hope . so i just sit in there , staring at her face , thinking about everything she 's gone through . so much more than she ever let on , and she kept it all to herself . i just wish she had come to me , you know ? confided in me . let me take some of this on for her . i just feel so helpless . sharon : i know . i 'm so sorry . abby : i ca n't believe that no one 's heard from my dad still . arturo : yeah . abby : but thank you . thank you for being here , and for helping me out . arturo : well , i 'm happy to . you know , nick 's always wanted this place to feel like family . also , here 's that contact info you wanted . hope it helps you locate your father . abby : thank you . and what 's the other thing ? arturo : it could be a christmas present for a special somebody . an early one , and not your main present . you still have to wait for that . you know , you 've just been so stressed lately , with your dad and nikki , and i just thought you needed some cheering up . abby : it worked . and i did n't even open it . arturo : i also thought maybe you might want to come with me to the rosales holiday dinner tonight at rey 's ? abby : and spend the evening inches away from mia on her home turf . admit it -- this is a bribe . victoria : go to the kitchen and get your props , okay ? billy : [ chuckles ] victoria : [ sighs ] billy : [ sighs ] victoria : i should go to the hospital . billy : you 'll get there -- after johnny 's show . victoria : i just do n't think i 'm gon na be able to sit through a christmas pageant . i 'm gon na be too worried sick . i think you and reed should go without me . reed : no . no , i 'm going to the hospital . victoria : reed , i know you love your grandmother , but she 's in a coma right now . she 's unconscious . billy : you 're not gon na do any good just sitting around the icu , reed . reed : i do n't care . i want to be there . if it were me in that coma , grandma would be by my side this whole time . billy : [ sighs ] victoria : okay . i guess you can go . billy will explain it to johnny somehow , right ? billy : yeah . i understand why it 's important to you . phyllis : did something happen with nikki ? nick : [ sighs ] uh , no . nate 's doing more tests . phyllis : well , i know her body 's giving her a damn good reason . she is too strong and determined not to make it . nick : that 's what i said . but with her complicated injuries , she just has a lot working against her . sharon : but she 's not fighting alone . there 's not a guy i know who shares a stronger bond with his mother . it 's so strong , i 'm sure nikki must know that you 're here right now , pulling for her . like you always do when someone you love is in crisis . phyllis : thank you , sharon . very kind of you to come by and look after nick . sharon : nikki is my kids ' grandmother . you put issues aside when it 's something this important . keep me posted . nick : hey , just so you know [ sighs ] before you got here , i had a pretty grim talk with nate about mom . and , uh , you know , then sharon showed up , and then ... phyllis : hey . i 'm grateful . obviously she made you feel better . nick : i just do n't want you to read anything into it . phyllis : i 'm so sorry about everything . victoria : thank you . nick : good to see you , big guy . even at a time like this . reed : i needed to come . how 's grandma ? nick : no change yet . [ sighs ] they still do n't know who did this to her . phyllis : rey rosales has got to find this hit - and - run scum . i want him celebrating new years behind bars . victoria : honey , let 's go in . she 'll know that we 're here , and maybe it will help . come on . mom , it 's victoria . and -- and reed 's here , too . [ sighs ] there 's so much we want to say to you . arturo : it 's christmas . i mean , i - it 's -- it 's an early present . the first of many . how can it be a bribe ? abby : because that 's what you call giving someone something so they 'll do something for you . arturo : well , then , we 're good . because you coming to rey 's house for dinner is you doing something for both of us . do you remember how tense thanksgiving got ? abby : i sure do , yeah . and do i want a repeat of that ? i sure do n't . arturo : [ sighs ] abby : do you ? arturo : it 's family . you ca n't change yours , and neither can i . abby : [ sighs ] arturo : but i do want my family to see how strong we are when we 're together . you and me . no matter what they want to do or say . abby : it does n't matter what they think . arturo : it 's not supposed to , but let 's be real -- it does . mine labeled me family screw - up a long time ago . and no matter what i do , or what i accomplish , that 's just how rey thinks of me . and when rey says that he has no idea what someone like you sees in someone like me , he 's not joking . but whether he likes it or not , i 'm going to prove to him that it does n't matter -- not to me , not to you , not to anyone in this town , and definitely not to anyone in the world . abby : of course i 'm coming . but this ... is still a bribe . arturo : oh , come on ! you are sick , miss newman . open it . abby : [ laughs ] let 's see . oh , my gosh ! arturo , i really like it . arturo : do you need to sound so surprised that i have good taste and know what you like ? abby : [ laughs ] arturo : try it on . abby : it 's so cute . okay .

[ flashback ] ava : you had avery tested , even though you knew it went against my wishes ? silas : you were n't there , ava . i was not gon na call you up and ask for permission . ava : i had a right to know . silas : it was a judgment call . and i figured that option was better than the one you were giving me . ava : oh , you thought a better option would be to torture my child ? silas : avery barely noticed when i took the sample . as for when i extracted the marrow -- ava ; ugh . no , no . i do n't even want to hear it . silas : yes , you do . i performed the procedure right here in this hospital with avery under general anesthesia . she did n't feel a thing . she came through it like a champ . ava : well , i am relieved to know that my daughter is all right . honestly , silas , i do n't think i 've ever been as angry with anyone in my entire life . [ back to the present ] denise : from what you 're telling me , it sounds like ava was pretty ticked off , and i , for one , ca n't blame her . [ flashback ] ava : i ca n't believe you would submit my daughter to that procedure after i forbade you to touch her . damn it , you had no right . silas : give it a rest , will you ? avery 's fine , all right ? you have nothing to worry about . ava : no , i want to see her . silas : i ca n't do that . ava : why ? is n't she here in the hospital ? silas : she was . she 's back in port charles with kiki . ava : does kiki know i 'm alive ? silas : no . she does n't know anything about the procedure , either . ava : well , where did she think you were taking her baby sister ? you must 've had her for days . silas : kiki did n't have any idea where avery was . in fact , kiki did n't know i had taken avery at all . ava : how is that possible ? silas : because i sort of kidnapped her . ava : `` sort of `` ? silas : okay , i kidnapped her . [ scene_break ] lulu : dillon ? dillon : in the flesh . lulu : i ca n't believe it . how long has it been ? dillon : eight years , give or take ? lulu : wow . people are n't kidding when they say `` time flies . `` dillon : yeah . we met when we were still in high school , and in the time i 've been away , we could 've gone to college twice . lulu : okay , now you 're just trying to make us sound old . dillon : i 'm merely appreciating how long our friendship has endured . lulu : mmm . that was a nice save . dillon : i thought so . lulu : [ laughs ] dillon : so , how about a hug for an old friend ? lulu : oh , come here , come here . [ scene_break ] dante : i know it 's not an ideal situation , but if you and the baby were here in town , i can -- i can look after you and , you know , make sure you do n't love him more than me . olivia : there is room in my heart for both of my sons . dante : yeah . olivia : and i hope , as my oldest , that you can respect my decision . dante : but you 're still gon na leave ? olivia : if julian is ready to get out of the mob , i wish him the best , i really do . but let 's face it -- he 's probably lying . and after everything i 've done to keep that baby safe , i ... i intend to see it through . dante : i know , ma . i would n't expect any less . i 'm just gon na miss you . olivia : [ crying ] i 'll miss you , too . because , you know why ... you know why your middle name is `` angelo `` ? dante : ah , yeah , yeah . olivia : because you are like a little angel to me . you always have been , and you always will be . [ sniffles ] okay . you take care of that beautiful grandbaby of mine and your pretty wife , and ... [ sighs ] while you 're at it , could you be a little bit careful yourself ? dante : i will . olivia : okay . and your father - in - law -- i know everyone thinks he 's cured , but i think luke spencer 's still got a lot of surprises left in him . [ scene_break ] anna : you 're engaged ? to tracy ? luke : well , i proposed , and she agreed -- to consider it . anna : oh . okay . after everything that happened ? luke : you mean , after everything that i did to her ? anna : mm - hmm . luke : i treated her so badly . i ... well , she stood by me , anyway . i mean , i abused and threatened her , and it was like nothing could stop her . anna : that 's admirable . luke : i owe it to her , slim . and i desperately want to prove to her and everyone else that i can be the man that she deserves . so , we 're having this little party on the haunted star tonight to announce our engagement . anna : oh , tonight ? oh , that 's ... that 's quick . luke : oh , yeah , but i 've wasted so much time , i did n't want to waste any more . anna : i hear you . luke : look , i know that you 're not in the mood for a party . i certainly understand that . but it 's gon na be a relatively small affair . you know , just tracy and me , the family , and our nearest and dearest , and you are literally at the top of my list of dearest . so , i would love it if you came . anna : oh , i 'm very happy for you , luke . i really am . and i 'm touched by the invitation . but i wo n't be able to come . i 'm leaving port charles . [ scene_break ] valerie : i was supposed to interview with commissioner sloane today . well , actually yesterday , but we had to postpone . jordan : well , now you know why . valerie : look , i know it 's your first day , so if you do n't want to do this now , i more than understand . jordan : no , no , no , it 's fine . i 've got to -- i 've got to dig in sometime , right ? please , take a seat . we can talk . [ scene_break ] nina : what are you doing here ? what 's he doing here ? is he being arrested , too ? nathan : no , nina . franco 's here as a witness . nina : a witness to what ? franco : a crime . nina : what crime ? franco : the one you committed . [ scene_break ] denise : well , that 's quite an admission , doc . you snatched a baby . wow , you just keep getting more and more interesting . not only are you a ginormous liar , you 're a kidnapper , to boot . [ flashback ] ava : you kidnapped avery . silas : i did n't want to . ava : and does that make it okay ? silas : it 's not like i could ask kiki for permission . i could n't let anyone know what i was doing without giving away the fact that you were still alive . ava : if you had done what you promised to do , that would n't have been a problem . silas : and you would n't be here right now . i realized that avery was your one chance . and soon as i figured out that she was a perfect match , i turned off the hospital security cams , i went back to the exam room , and i took her . that 's when i brought her here . ava : and what about kiki ? kiki and morgan ? they must 've been going out of their minds . what , did people just think that avery just disappeared ? silas : everyone assumed quite correctly that she had been kidnapped from the time she went missing . ava : you mean from the time that you took her ! silas : yes . until the time i returned her . ava : are you a suspect ? silas : detective west did question me , but he said i was n't a suspect . there were other persons of interest . ava : who ? silas : nina , for one . [ back to present ] denise : nina ? who the hell is nina ? [ scene_break ] nina : i have n't committed a crime since i got sprung from the loony bin , except the crime of believing that i could trust you . franco : that 's not a crime . nina : okay , just spit it out . what -- what crime did i supposedly commit ? franco : i 'm sorry , nina . but i needed to tell them . nina : tell them what ? franco : there 's no point in playing innocent , okay ? you told me what you did , and i would be an accomplice if i did n't share that confession with the authorities . nina : what confession ? franco : well , that you kidnapped little aj , of course . [ scene_break ] dillon : wow . you look great . lulu : thank you . so do you . so , what brings you to port charles ? you 're not here for the -- dillon : the engagement ? even i could n't get here that fast . lulu : [ chuckles ] dillon : no , ned was called out of town , and he asked me to keep an eye on our mother . lulu : what , on tracy ? good luck . dillon : yeah . challenging though it will be , i was willing to try . even though i could n't stop her from getting engaged to your father . lulu : you do n't seem happy about that . dillon : it 's a little fast , given the circumstances . so , what do you think ? is it a good idea ? lulu : i ... want to think that it 's a good idea . dillon : but ? lulu : but the engagement party is happening a little faster than most . dillon : light does n't travel this fast . lulu : well , you , of all people , know that when it comes to my dad , it 's pretty much par for the course . look what i have for you . if there 's one thing that i have learned , it 's impossible to stop luke spencer when he wants something . [ scene_break ] luke : you 're not going anywhere . slim ! anna : mm - hmm . i have to . i -- i have to get out of port charles . just , you know , there 's too many memories here . luke : well , i hope they 're not all painful . anna : no , no , they 're not . they 're -- they 're good . and some of them are spectacular . i think that 's what makes them painful . luke : where are you going ? anna : i 'm -- i 'm taking the red - eye to glasgow . and then i 'm headed up to the isle of skye . oh , duke took me there . he loved it . and there 's a field where he used to play as a boy , and we had a picnic there once . and we spent the night stargazing . so , i 'm -- i 'm gon na spread his ashes right there . [ voice breaks ] and then ... i 'm gon na look up at the stars and imagine duke up there . luke : i think that 's exactly what he would want . anna : i hope so . luke : when will you be back ? anna : i do n't know . [ scene_break ] jordan : well , i see that you are proficient in several word processing programs , as well as the same database software that we use . and you minored in criminology ? valerie : yeah , i 've had in interest in law enforcement for as long as i can remember . jordan : huh . well , this all looks very good . [ knock on door ] jordan : come in . dante : hey . valerie . valerie : hey , i 'm interviewing for that paa job . dante : nice . okay , good . i 'll leave you guys to it . i do n't want to interrupt you . jordan : no , no , not at all . in fact , you might as well be the first to know that your cousin - in - law , she got the job . [ scene_break ] luke : well , i completely understand why you ca n't make the engagement party , but for what it 's worth , you will be missed . anna : it 's worth a lot . luke : we 've been friends a long time , you and me . anna : mm - hmm . luke : that friendship 's taken a lot of twists and turns . anna : yeah , it has . yes . [ laughs ] luke : for a little while there , it was more than a friendship . anna : yeah . for a split second . luke : yeah , but what a split second . anna : [ laughs ] yeah , but i think that we kind of both knew i could never be what tracy is to you , could i ? luke : no . and we also know i could never be duke . or even robert . anna : mm . luke : i do n't think anyone could . i want you to know that , with all the twists and turns of our friendship , that 's what 's the most important to me -- that we have been friends . anna : oh , god , the feeling is mutual . i wish you and tracy the best . i really do . luke : well , slim ... bon voyage . [ smooches ] and good luck . anna : oh , i do n't need luck . i 'm not the one marrying a quartermaine . [ both laughing ] luke : that 's true . i hope this sojourn brings you what you 're looking for . i ca n't say goodbye . 'cause i know i 'm gon na see you again . later . anna : oh , later . [ scene_break ] dillon : if you 're sure about this . lulu : of course , i am . come on , dillon . what your mom and my dad have is turbulent and unique . but they really love each other . who knows that better than we do ? dillon : okay , so , you 've already met the new and improved aj quartermaine . lulu : i have . actually , this little lady right here is my sister - in - law . dillon : that 's right . aj is dante 's sister . lulu : dante 's sister . right . [ laughs ] dillon : wow , i -- i ca n't believe you 're married , and i have n't even met your husband . lulu : you leave for eight years , you know , pow , stuff happens . dillon : yeah . like you having a son . lulu : rocco . dillon : rocco . lulu : mm - hmm . dillon : i ca n't wait to meet him . lulu : rocco 's perfect . dante 's not so bad himself . dillon : yeah , well , he 'd better not be , or i 'll have to , you know , set him straight . lulu : i think that we 're leaving rocco with a sitter , but you will get to meet dante tonight . oh , and valerie , too . dillon : who 's valerie ? lulu : she 's my cousin . dillon : i thought carly and lucas were your only cousins . lulu : it turns out that my dad had a sister , patricia . valerie is her daughter . we just tracked them down a couple of months ago . but valerie has decided to make port charles her home . [ scene_break ] valerie : i got the job ? jordan : i 'm offering it to you . but technically , you have n't accepted it . valerie : yes , i accept . [ laughs ] jordan : great . then as my first official act as commissioner , may i just say , welcome to the pcpd . valerie : [ laughs ] dante : welcome . ah , come on , what the hell ? we 're family , right ? congratulations . [ scene_break ] silas : you know who nina is , ava . denise : no , i do n't . so , why do n't you go ahead and tell me why the cops would think she stole ava 's baby ? silas : you know why . because she 's done it before . [ flashback ] ava : nina is a suspect in avery 's kidnapping ? silas : she is . that 's not what i want . hopefully , things will cool off now that avery 's back . ava : [ laughs ] silas : what is so funny ? what ? ava : [ laughs ] nina . she walked when she kidnapped avery for real . this serves her right . silas : it 's nice to see a near - death experience has done nothing to make you any more compassionate . ava : not toward nina clay . how about avery ? obviously , you could n't keep her here long enough to reunite her with her mother . no . so , what ? you brought her back to kiki ? silas : yeah , i knew that morgan and kiki were headed back to the apartment , so i left avery there , and right before they arrived , i slipped out . i promise you , avery is safe and sound . ava : and you did all of this without telling me . silas : it was the only way , ava . i had to do it if i wanted to save your life . ava : my life . [ scoffs ] i wonder what kind of life i will have . i 'm grateful to be alive , but if the situation creates more problems than it solves ... silas : such as ? ava : my daughters . i want to see them . but i ca n't . not without going to prison . the minute i set foot in port charles , i 'll get a one - way ticket back to pentonville . silas : you 're right . which is why you have to disappear . [ scene_break ] nina : i did n't kidnap avery , and you know it . franco : then why did you say that you did ? nina : i did no such thing . nathan : nina , you know , franco gave a full statement , okay ? and in it , he explains how you confessed to kidnapping avery jerome corinthos . and then when we were getting close , you returned her anonymously . nina : really ? is that what he said ? nathan : yeah . he went into great detail about your role in the kidnapping . nina : oh , i 'm sure he did . because he made it all up . can you please take it back ? franco : no , i -- i ca n't do that . i would not pervert the course of justice . nina : oh , really ? but that 's what you do -- you pervert the course of justice all the time . everything that comes out of his mouth is a lie . you know it , i know it , everyone knows it . take it back , please . will you please take it back ? franco : i suppose i could retract my statement ... nina : okay , thank you . ... franco : if you would agree to an annulment . [ scene_break ] dante : sorry , commissioner , i realize that 's a breach of protocol right there . jordan : i can make an exception , just this once . just do n't let it happen again . dante : yes , ma'am . valerie : i do n't want to take up any more of your time on your first day . jordan : yeah , you know what ? i should -- i should finish unpacking , but i will say i 'm excited to have you work here . valerie : so am i . thank you again . jordan : of course . dante : i 'll check back in with you later . let me know if you need anything , okay ? jordan : you 'll be my first call . dante : all right . come on . so , welcome aboard . valerie : ah ! thank you so much for everything . dante : come on , i did n't do anything . valerie : you recommended me for the position . if it were n't for you , i would n't have gotten it . dante : i may have said to whatever commissioner was in charge that you should get a chance to have an interview . that 's all i did . you did the rest . valerie : well , the way i see it , you 've been so helpful to me since i lost my mother -- both you and lulu . dante : it 's the least we could do . valerie : well , i 'd like to take you both out to dinner to celebrate . what do you say ? [ scene_break ] dillon : so , what 's this long - lost cousin valerie like ? lulu : hmm . how do i put it ? she 's a spencer . dillon : strong , impulsive , great in a bar fight ? lulu : i ca n't speak for the bar fighting , but the rest sounds pretty accurate . valerie met the family during extremely difficult circumstances . dillon : having to do with your dad 's meltdown ? lulu : her mother died suddenly . she 's just trying to pick up the pieces . she 's actually handling it very well . dillon : but ? lulu : but nothing . valerie 's great . tracy : did i leave my cell phone down here ? lulu , what are you doing here ? lulu : congratulations , once and future step - monster . tracy : well , thank you . but why are n't you at the haunted star , getting it ready for the party ? lulu : no , the staff is working on it . i just wanted to see if you needed anything . tracy : no , thank you . i 'm fine . just as soon as i figure out what i 'm gon na wear , i 'll be a lot better . your father , however , that 's another story . lulu : i 'll gladly go check on him . where is he ? tracy : well , that 's the point . maybe you should focus on rounding him up . luke : no rounding - up necessary . tracy : what are you doing here ? dillon : you just said you wanted him here . tracy : no , i did not . i said i wanted him found . why are n't you getting ready ? luke : you seemed a tab ambivalent about the festivities , so i thought i should , you know , come in and make sure that you actually planned to attend . tracy : luke , i told you i would be there . i will be there . luke : good . because it 's gon na be a nice , quiet celebration . just our close family and friends , with absolutely no drama . dillon : it 's a quartermaine - spencer engagement -- what could possibly happen ? luke : very droll , scorsese . but i just found out you can cross one guest off the list . [ scene_break ] [ anna packs up a bag and leaves ] [ scene_break ] nina : an annulment ? what are you talking about ? franco : i took the liberty of having diane draw up some papers . nina : i thought that was your statement . can you believe this joker is saying that he made a statement that i kidnapped the baby ? nathan : he did . nina : then if those are annulment papers , are you in on this ? franco : okay , forget about your brother for a second , all right ? like i said , i had diane draw up some papers that will dissolve your marriage to ric , and if you want to stay out of prison , you 'll sign them . [ scene_break ] silas : listen , we made a deal that day , ava . denise : how many times do i got to tell you -- silas : you broke that deal . you came back to port charles . so , why do n't you just stop insulting us both and just admit it ? you 're ava jerome . denise : fine ! of - of course , i am . of course , i 'm ava . it all happened exactly like you said . i broke our deal . and there 's not a damn thing you can do about it . | nina pays off her metro court tab with the money she got from selling franco 's elq shares to rosalie . olivia tells dante that she is leaving town to be with her baby . dante tells olivia that julian is quitting the mob so maybe he wo n't be a threat to her baby . she insists that she has to follow through with what she started . she tells him to look after himself and his family and to keep an eye on his father in law because she suspects that luke still has a few surprises . luke and anna share memories of duke . he invites her to his engagement party , but she ca n't go because she is leaving for scotland to spread duke 's ashes . | <s>[INST] nina : so , i guess we can consider my bill paid in full ? olivia : oh , it has been a pleasure doing business with you . [ sighs ] dante : ma ? olivia : what ? dante : what are you doing ? what 's all that cash ? olivia : uh ... nothing illegal . i swear to god . it 's just -- it 's a payment for nina clay -- sorry -- nina lansing 's ridiculously overdue hotel bill . nathan : so , she 's in her suite ? olivia : she is . uh , can i borrow you for a second ? dante : sure . can you handle your sister ? nathan : remains to be seen . dante : yeah . i 'm all yours , ma . nina : do n't tell me that 's -- hey . j . nathan : can i come in ? nina : of course . thanks . this is unexpected . not that i 'm complaining . hey , listen . i may have overreacted just a little bit at the restaurant yesterday . nathan : nina , i 'm not here on a social visit , all right ? i 'm here to make an arrest . [ scene_break ] anna : so , i just wanted to call to say congratulations to you on your new position as commissioner . jordan : thank you . you sure you 're okay with this ? anna : oh , yeah . i think -- i think lomax made a really good choice . jordan : yeah , well , i think you and i both know why . nina : oh , yeah , yeah , of course . i mean , you 're kind of like a public hero right now and very good for her pr . jordan : i also have no experience as a commissioner , which means that she either thinks of me as a puppet or her scapegoat . anna : well , do n't you worry about that , because you do n't work for her . you work for the people of the city of port charles . you remember that , okay ? jordan : i 'll keep that in mind . and for the record , i told her to give the job back to you . anna : oh . well , that was never gon na happen . jordan : which is the only reason i took it . i still feel kind of ... guilty about sloane . have n't had a chance to talk to him . have you seen him ? anna : no , i have n't . anyway , i just was calling you to wish you luck . jordan : thank you -- for the call and for everything you 've done for me to support me . i know this is a really hellish time for you right now , and i 'm so sorry for your loss . and i realize now that what duke was trying to do to me has nothing to do with you , and it 's not personal . anna : for what it 's worth , um ... he did try to call off the hit there , before the end . jordan : duke loved you very much , anna . it was so clear when he was looking at you or when he said your name . anna : thank you . anyway , um ... i know you 've got a bunch of things that you need to take care of , so i just was calling to tell you that i think you 're gon na do a really great job . okay ? [ knock on door ] anna : bye . um , kyle ? if that is you , i do n't have anything to say to you . luke : it 's not kyle , slim . [ scene_break ] tracy : it really is a beautiful ring , much nicer than all the others . [ laughs ] dillon : so , you 're really going through with this ? tracy : i am going through with the 30-day engagement . whatever happens after that remains to be seen . dillon : look , i like luke , and i know how you feel about him . tracy : so , what 's the problem ? dillon : mom , look at everything he 's put you through this past year . tracy : he was n't himself . dillon : yes , well , maybe now that he is himself , you can take things slow . why throw an engagement party the same day he pops the question ? tracy : luke wants to give me a party . i 'm going to let him . sabrina : aj just had her bath , and i thought she might enjoy some afternoon sunshine in here . tracy : i think that 's a great idea . come here , little one . come on . dillon : i loved playing in this room when i was a kid . just one question -- who 's aj ? sabrina : [ laughs ] [ scene_break ] denise : come on , doc . i 'm on pins and needles over here . what 's with all the drama ? who was ava 's mystery bone marrow donor ? what ? was it her daughter kiki or something ? silas : it was n't kiki , it was your other daughter . denise : ava 's other daughter ? i do n't get it . silas : it was avery . avery was your donor , ava , and you damn well know it . avery 's the one that saved your life . [ scene_break ] tracy : sabrina , this is my son , dillon . he 's a filmmaker . and , dillon , this is aj 's nanny , sabrina , and also michael 's girlfriend . dillon : pleasure to meet you . sabrina : likewise . ms. quartermaine , would you mind watching aj for a bit ? i 'm just gon na go grab some lunch . tracy : absolutely . take your time . sabrina : okay . see you soon . dillon : so , aj is sonny 's daughter . tracy : uh , biologically . however , michael managed to win at court and got full custody . so , she is officially and legally a quartermaine . dillon : what about aj 's mother ? tracy : uh , she 's dead . [ scene_break ] denise : you 're telling me that my innocent little niece was ava 's bone marrow donor ? how is that even possible ? silas : you know it 's possible 'cause you know she was your donor . denise : give me a break . how could that teeny , tiny baby save anybody ? [ flashback ] ava : i do n't understand this , silas . how -- how could avery possibly be my bone marrow donor ? silas : when you asked me to check on avery , i went to port charles , remember ? and as luck would have it , she happened to be at the hospital for an exam . i ended up being her doctor . ava : so , what ? you just whipped out a needle and took the marrow out of my infant daughter 's bones ? silas : no , i examined her first . and the whole time i was looking at her , all i could think about was you and how this little girl was gon na grow up without a mother and how , the minute that i returned to this city , you were expecting me to end your life . ava : i was expecting you to help me die with a little dignity . silas : you know , i 've lost patients , and i hate it . i 've lost patients , but only after i 've tried everything , and that 's when i realized -- avery had never been tested as a possible marrow donor . ava : so , you just took it upon yourself ? silas : i took some blood , and i took it to the lab . and i found out she was a perfect match for you . and then i realized , instead of killing you , i could save you . [ scene_break ] nina : why are you arresting me ? i have n't done anything wrong . nathan : nina , we can talk about this at the station , okay ? nina : no ! tell me now ! you 're my brother . give me the courtesy of telling me what 's happening instead of treating me like a common criminal . [ scene_break ] olivia : it 's my fault that nina and franco were able to -- to rack up this ridiculous bill in the first place , and now that this is taken care of , i 've got to move on to something more important . dante : such as ? olivia : saying goodbye .

[ back to the present ] denise : from what you 're telling me , it sounds like ava was pretty ticked off , and i , for one , ca n't blame her .

[ scene_break ] dante : i know it 's not an ideal situation , but if you and the baby were here in town , i can -- i can look after you and , you know , make sure you do n't love him more than me . olivia : there is room in my heart for both of my sons . dante : yeah . olivia : and i hope , as my oldest , that you can respect my decision . dante : but you 're still gon na leave ? olivia : if julian is ready to get out of the mob , i wish him the best , i really do . but let 's face it -- he 's probably lying . and after everything i 've done to keep that baby safe , i ... i intend to see it through . dante : i know , ma . i would n't expect any less . i 'm just gon na miss you . olivia : [ crying ] i 'll miss you , too . because , you know why ... you know why your middle name is `` angelo `` ? dante : ah , yeah , yeah . olivia : because you are like a little angel to me . you always have been , and you always will be .

[ scene_break ] denise : well , that 's quite an admission , doc . you snatched a baby . wow , you just keep getting more and more interesting . not only are you a ginormous liar , you 're a kidnapper , to boot . [ flashback ] ava : you kidnapped avery . silas : i did n't want to . ava : and does that make it okay ? silas : it 's not like i could ask kiki for permission . i could n't let anyone know what i was doing without giving away the fact that you were still alive . ava : if you had done what you promised to do , that would n't have been a problem . silas : and you would n't be here right now . i realized that avery was your one chance . and soon as i figured out that she was a perfect match , i turned off the hospital security cams , i went back to the exam room , and i took her . that 's when i brought her here . ava : and what about kiki ? kiki and morgan ? they must 've been going out of their minds . what , did people just think that avery just disappeared ? silas : everyone assumed quite correctly that she had been kidnapped from the time she went missing . ava : you mean from the time that you took her ! silas : yes . until the time i returned her . ava : are you a suspect ? silas : detective west did question me , but he said i was n't a suspect . there were other persons of interest . ava : who ? silas : nina , for one . [ back to present ] denise : nina ? who the hell is nina ? [ scene_break ] nina : i have n't committed a crime since i got sprung from the loony bin , except the crime of believing that i could trust you . franco : that 's not a crime . nina : okay , just spit it out . what -- what crime did i supposedly commit ? franco : i 'm sorry , nina . but i needed to tell them . nina : tell them what ? franco : there 's no point in playing innocent , okay ? you told me what you did , and i would be an accomplice if i did n't share that confession with the authorities . nina : what confession ? franco : well , that you kidnapped little aj , of course . [ scene_break ] dillon : wow . you look great . lulu : thank you . so do you . so , what brings you to port charles ? you 're not here for the -- dillon : the engagement ? even i could n't get here that fast . lulu : [ chuckles ] dillon : no , ned was called out of town , and he asked me to keep an eye on our mother . lulu : what , on tracy ? good luck . dillon : yeah . challenging though it will be , i was willing to try . even though i could n't stop her from getting engaged to your father . lulu : you do n't seem happy about that . dillon : it 's a little fast , given the circumstances . so , what do you think ? is it a good idea ? lulu : i ... want to think that it 's a good idea . dillon : but ? lulu : but the engagement party is happening a little faster than most . dillon : light does n't travel this fast . lulu : well , you , of all people , know that when it comes to my dad , it 's pretty much par for the course . look what i have for you . if there 's one thing that i have learned , it 's impossible to stop luke spencer when he wants something . [ scene_break ] luke : you 're not going anywhere . slim ! anna : mm - hmm . i have to . i -- i have to get out of port charles . just , you know , there 's too many memories here . luke : well , i hope they 're not all painful . anna : no , no , they 're not . they 're -- they 're good . and some of them are spectacular . i think that 's what makes them painful . luke : where are you going ? anna : i 'm -- i 'm taking the red - eye to glasgow . and then i 'm headed up to the isle of skye . oh , duke took me there . he loved it . and there 's a field where he used to play as a boy , and we had a picnic there once . and we spent the night stargazing . so , i 'm -- i 'm gon na spread his ashes right there . [ voice breaks ] and then ... i 'm gon na look up at the stars and imagine duke up there . luke : i think that 's exactly what he would want . anna : i hope so . luke : when will you be back ? anna : i do n't know .

[ scene_break ] luke : well , i completely understand why you ca n't make the engagement party , but for what it 's worth , you will be missed . anna : it 's worth a lot . luke : we 've been friends a long time , you and me . anna : mm - hmm . luke : that friendship 's taken a lot of twists and turns . anna : yeah , it has . yes . [ laughs ] luke : for a little while there , it was more than a friendship . anna : yeah . for a split second . luke : yeah , but what a split second . anna : [ laughs ] yeah , but i think that we kind of both knew i could never be what tracy is to you , could i ? luke : no . and we also know i could never be duke . or even robert . anna : mm . luke : i do n't think anyone could . i want you to know that , with all the twists and turns of our friendship , that 's what 's the most important to me -- that we have been friends . anna : oh , god , the feeling is mutual . i wish you and tracy the best . i really do . luke : well , slim ... bon voyage . [ smooches ] and good luck . anna : oh , i do n't need luck . i 'm not the one marrying a quartermaine . [ both laughing ] luke : that 's true . i hope this sojourn brings you what you 're looking for . i ca n't say goodbye . 'cause i know i 'm gon na see you again . later . anna : oh , later . [ scene_break ] dillon : if you 're sure about this . lulu : of course , i am . come on , dillon . what your mom and my dad have is turbulent and unique . but they really love each other . who knows that better than we do ? dillon : okay , so , you 've already met the new and improved aj quartermaine . lulu : i have . actually , this little lady right here is my sister - in - law . dillon : that 's right . aj is dante 's sister . lulu : dante 's sister . right . [ laughs ] dillon : wow , i -- i ca n't believe you 're married , and i have n't even met your husband . lulu : you leave for eight years , you know , pow , stuff happens . dillon : yeah . like you having a son . lulu : rocco . dillon : rocco . lulu : mm - hmm . dillon : i ca n't wait to meet him . lulu : rocco 's perfect . dante 's not so bad himself . dillon : yeah , well , he 'd better not be , or i 'll have to , you know , set him straight . lulu : i think that we 're leaving rocco with a sitter , but you will get to meet dante tonight . oh , and valerie , too . dillon : who 's valerie ? lulu : she 's my cousin . dillon : i thought carly and lucas were your only cousins . lulu : it turns out that my dad had a sister , patricia . valerie is her daughter . we just tracked them down a couple of months ago . but valerie has decided to make port charles her home . [ scene_break ] valerie : i got the job ? jordan : i 'm offering it to you . but technically , you have n't accepted it . valerie : yes , i accept . [ laughs ] jordan : great . then as my first official act as commissioner , may i just say , welcome to the pcpd . valerie : [ laughs ] dante : welcome . ah , come on , what the hell ? we 're family , right ? congratulations . [ scene_break ] silas : you know who nina is , ava . denise : no , i do n't . so , why do n't you go ahead and tell me why the cops would think she stole ava 's baby ? silas : you know why . because she 's done it before . [ flashback ] ava : nina is a suspect in avery 's kidnapping ? silas : she is . that 's not what i want . hopefully , things will cool off now that avery 's back . ava : [ laughs ] silas : what is so funny ? what ? ava : [ laughs ] nina . she walked when she kidnapped avery for real . this serves her right . silas : it 's nice to see a near - death experience has done nothing to make you any more compassionate . ava : not toward nina clay . how about avery ? obviously , you could n't keep her here long enough to reunite her with her mother . no . so , what ? you brought her back to kiki ? silas : yeah , i knew that morgan and kiki were headed back to the apartment , so i left avery there , and right before they arrived , i slipped out . i promise you , avery is safe and sound . ava : and you did all of this without telling me . silas : it was the only way , ava . i had to do it if i wanted to save your life . ava : my life . [ scoffs ] i wonder what kind of life i will have . i 'm grateful to be alive , but if the situation creates more problems than it solves ... silas : such as ? ava : my daughters . i want to see them . but i ca n't . not without going to prison . the minute i set foot in port charles , i 'll get a one - way ticket back to pentonville . silas : you 're right . which is why you have to disappear .

[ scene_break ] dante : sorry , commissioner , i realize that 's a breach of protocol right there . jordan : i can make an exception , just this once . just do n't let it happen again . dante : yes , ma'am . valerie : i do n't want to take up any more of your time on your first day . jordan : yeah , you know what ? i should -- i should finish unpacking , but i will say i 'm excited to have you work here . valerie : so am i . thank you again . jordan : of course . dante : i 'll check back in with you later . let me know if you need anything , okay ? jordan : you 'll be my first call . dante : all right . come on . so , welcome aboard . valerie : ah ! thank you so much for everything . dante : come on , i did n't do anything . valerie : you recommended me for the position . if it were n't for you , i would n't have gotten it . dante : i may have said to whatever commissioner was in charge that you should get a chance to have an interview . that 's all i did . you did the rest . valerie : well , the way i see it , you 've been so helpful to me since i lost my mother -- both you and lulu . dante : it 's the least we could do . valerie : well , i 'd like to take you both out to dinner to celebrate . what do you say ?

[ scene_break ] [ anna packs up a bag and leaves ] [ scene_break ] nina : an annulment ? what are you talking about ? franco : i took the liberty of having diane draw up some papers . nina : i thought that was your statement . can you believe this joker is saying that he made a statement that i kidnapped the baby ? nathan : he did . nina : then if those are annulment papers , are you in on this ? franco : okay , forget about your brother for a second , all right ? like i said , i had diane draw up some papers that will dissolve your marriage to ric , and if you want to stay out of prison , you 'll sign them .

[ scene_break ] nikki : oh , it 's fantastic ! she 's adorable , but still scary . victoria : oh , very scary . and the costume 's amazing . nikki : did you make it ? victoria : no . it was all chloe . nikki : well , who else would accessorize a witch ? victoria : i know . right ? i think she had a little help from chelsea . nikki : i am sure that she 's the only child there who had her own personal designer . victoria : man , i wish i could have been there tonight . nikki : well , honey , why did n't you call me ? i would have been happy to come watch johnny . victoria : mom , i did n't know that hannah was n't showing up until the last minute . nikki : how 's he feeling , anyway ? you said he was running a fever . victoria : yeah , he 's just teething -- nothing serious . nothing like what chelsea and adam are facing with connor . nikki : oh , i know . that 's just awful . poor , little thing losing his eyesight ? ohh . victoria : i know . i can only imagine what chelsea 's going through ... and adam . nikki : hey , i would n't wish this upon any parent , even him . victoria : when i found out that connor did n't inherit his eye disease from adam but that he could have gotten it from chelsea , i really could n't help feeling grateful that johnny was n't born with the same eye disorder . i know that 's terrible . nikki : no , sweetheart ! of course not ! even chelsea would agree with you . every mother wants what 's best for their child , no matter who raises them . so , um ... are you finished ? victoria : yep ! what do you think ? nikki : i think it looks fabuloso . victoria : [ chuckles ] thank you . it 's for the first inductee into the genoa city walk of fame , who should be walking through that door any minute with her proud daddy .

[ scene_break ] mimi : i am going to jail , and there 's nothing you can do to change that . dr. evans said i have to tell rex the truth . but i just do n't know if i can do that without hurting him any more than i already have . rex : ohhh . shawn d. : you look like hell . rex : i 've been up all night worrying about mimi . shawn d. : she never came home ? rex : no . i 've been trying to call her , but she wo n't pick up . shawn d. : you try calling her mom ? rex : yeah , i did , but bonnie has no idea where she is and neither does patrick . i thought you were leaving for germany last night . what happened ? did you change your mind and realize i was right and that you should n't interfere with belle and philip ? shawn d. : i have n't changed my mind about anything . got all the way to the airport and my credit card got rejected . so , rex , i was wondering , is there any chance that you might loan me some money so i can get over there ? rex : sorry , shawn . no way . [ scene_break ] brady : hey , dude , what 's up ? lucas : what 's going on , brady ? what are you doing here , man ? it 's early . brady : i 'm sorry about that , lucas . is will up ? i got to talk to you . lucas : no , he 's not . he spent the night at grandpa shawn 's . why ? brady : i want to talk to you about chloe and nicole . lucas : all right , but ca n't this wait till some other time ? brady : i 'm sorry . i thought about it last night after we talked , and i made a decision . lucas : about what ? brady : well , i told nicole that i believe her that chloe is really dead . lucas : what the hell did you do that for ? [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] nicole : what the heck ? what the hell are you doing here ? sami : you were really pushing your luck , talking to me the way that you did last night at alice 's . if i wanted to , i could have told brady the truth about chloe still being alive and what you did to her . nicole : well , that would n't have been a very good idea because then i would have told lucas that you were stan . then you would n't be standing here interrupting my breakfast because you 'd be sitting in jail . [ scene_break ] like sands through the hourglass , so are the days of our lives . [ scene_break ] belle : shawn . philip : belle . belle . belle : philip , are you okay ? philip : yeah . belle : are you sure ? i can get the nurse . philip : no , i 'm fine . i did n't know you were gon na be sleeping here . belle : i did n't want to leave you after you feel asleep last night . you were really , really feverish , restless . this seemed to help . philip : thanks . belle : that 's what i 'm here for . philip : i want to ask you something . belle : sure . what ? philip : why were you calling to shawn in your sleep ? [ scene_break ] kate : i knew belle would do the right thing and stand by philip . shawn was just a bad influence . he was always working on her , trying to get her to leave her husband . john : kate , i do n't condone what the kid has done . god knows , he 's caused my daughter a lot of pain . but the fact is , he does love belle , and he is desperate to get her back . kate : be that as it may , philip and belle took vows , vows that are sacred . i think that she realizes that she does n't have any choice except to honor them . john : you 're right . they are ... sacred . you know , that 's why i need to renew my vows with marlena -- to reaffirm my love . kate : do you really think that 's necessary ? john : necessary ? kate : are you just feeling guilty because you broke those vows when you made love to me ? [ scene_break ] lucas : you got to be kidding me . allowing nicole to manipulate you like that , brady ? i 'm sorry , buddy . i thought you were a lot smarter than that . brady : i appreciate your vote of confidence there , lucas . you want to give me a chance to explain why ? lucas : i know why . nicole is beautiful , and she 's sexy , and she 's an expert at getting you to believe her crap . she did the same thing to me when we were married , man . i 'm telling you , i thought i could trust her . i thought she really loved me , and it turns out she was paid $ 5 million to marry me . and i know you think she 's changed but -- brady : i thought she had . lucas : come on , admit it . that whole story about hearing chloe 's voice on the phone being nothing but a dimera trick . brady : you thought it was a trick , too , if i recall . lucas : yes , and then i had a chance to think about it . roman and marlena , jack and cassie -- we all thought they were dead , but it turns out dimera had them the whole time . brady : thank you ! lucas , that is exactly what i 'm trying to tell you . i agree with you . lucas : what are you trying to say ? brady : if chloe is alive , there are more people than just nicole conspiring to keep it a secret . [ scene_break ] sami : look , i just do n't want you saying horrible things about me like that in front of lucas . nicole : well , other than the fact that it came naturally , i had to make it look good . you saw how suspicious brady and lucas were . they wanted to know what two people who hate each other as much as we do had to talk about . and what was that thing that you said that made brady think there was some connection between you and stan ? sami : well , never mind , okay ? i managed to talk my way out of it . nicole : well , on a lighter note , it was really great how you came up with that bit about needing a job . brilliant . sami : well , we were on the spot . i had to come up with something . nicole : you see ? again , they know we hate each other 's guts . so i 'm supposed to give you a job ? no , i do n't think so . sami : well , you did n't have to be quite so nasty about it , nicole . nicole : i was nasty ? you stood there and called me a slut . sami : well , i just wanted to be convincing . nicole : well , you did n't have to call me that . sami : why ? the truth hurt ? [ scene_break ] rex : so , what were you and jan fighting about ? mimi : she was blackmailing me . rex : with what ? mimi : a secret . a secret that i should have told you a long time ago , but i knew it would destroy us . rex : i 'm afraid to ask . what is it ? mimi : remember months ago when i asked you how you felt about having a family , and you said you wanted to someday but no way did you want the responsibility now ? rex : yeah , i remember something about that . mimi : well , i asked you for a reason . and after i got your answer , i was -- i was so afraid of losing you that i ... rex : you what , mimi ? what 'd you do ? mimi : i got pregnant with your baby , rex . but i had an abortion . rex : oh , my god . i - i do n't believe this . mimi : i 'm sorry . rex : sorry ? mimi , you 're sorry ? you had no right to make that decision without me . we should have made that decision together . i - i never would have wanted you to get rid of our baby . mimi : i know that now . rex : but you did it anyway . mimi , what you did ... mimi : i tried to tell you so many times . i did . but then jan found out , and she was blackmailing me -- rex : the hell with jan ! you may as well have killed her because you killed our baby ! and that makes you a murderer ! [ echoing ] a murderer ... a murderer ... a murderer ... a murderer . mimi : i can never tell him . this way , when i go to jail , he 'll just forget about me instead of hating me forever . [ scene_break ] rex : shawn , you know how i feel about this . i think it 's wrong for you to go over to germany and interfere with belle and philip . he needs her support . shawn d. : and belle needs mine . rex : for god 's sake , shawn , he just lost his leg . that 's gon na change his life . and right now , he needs his wife there with him without you standing over there , keeping them from getting too close . shawn d. : it 's not like that . i just want to be there for her . rex : you know what ? her dad 's there for her . marlena is gon na get over there as soon as she can . besides , we both know why you 're doing this , and it 's not for belle . it 's for you . i 'm not gon na help you do it . shawn d. : think what you want . i have to find some way to get money , buy a ticket . rex : i know i ca n't talk you out of this , but please , do not interfere with belle and philip . shawn d. : would you please give me some credit ? i am not gon na do that . good luck finding out what 's going on with mimi . rex : thanks . shawn , it 's just this thing with jan and mimi . i 've thought it over a million times , and i ca n't think of anything else besides the fact that jan constantly kept telling me that mimi had this big secret she was keeping from me . shawn d. : look , it 's probably just jan being jan because mimi is a good person , and she 's honest . what reason could she possibly have to keep a secret ? rex : that 's what i have to find out , or i could end up losing her forever . shawn d. : well , you will , all right ? try not to worry about it too much . i have to get going . rex : all right , man . i 'll see you later . thanks . shawn d. : well , hi . rex has been looking for you . mimi : i know . shawn d. : sure hope you have some answers . rex : mimi . mimi : rex , i -- rex : there 's something i have to tell you , and it ca n't wait . [ scene_break ] hope : why would the court send a letter to shawn at our address ? bo : our address is on his arraignment papers . he probably did n't change his legal address to the loft . hope : this could be important . we should probably get it to him right away . bo : we will , soon as we see what it 's about . hope : you 're gon na open it ? bo : damn right i am . hope : bo , this is addressed to shawn . bo : hey , you keep accusing me of not knowing what 's going on . hope : that does n't mean violating his privacy . bo : this could be very important , hope . it probably has something to do with the charges against him for crashing his bike into the church . hope : you 're probably right , but -- bo : listen , you know how he 's been recently -- obstinate , defiant . he 'll probably just ignore this , and we ca n't let him do this . whatever is in here could have a major impact on the rest of his life . hope : all right , go . open it . bo : worse than i thought . [ scene_break ] john : you and i have nothing to feel guilty about . when i made love to you , when i asked you to marry me , we both thought roman and marlena were dead . kate : that 's true . john : you know , i 'm wrong feeling jealous and suspicious of them anyway . i mean , it 's only natural that they would grow closer when they were being held by tony . i mean , i 'm sure they leaned on each other . they 've got a history . and i 'm sure there 's nothing romantic about it . in fact , i 'm kind of glad that they were there for each other . kate : do you really believe that , or are you just trying to convince yourself because you accused marlena of having feelings for roman ? john : of course i feel bad about accusing her , especially knowing how the two of them felt when they saw us together . look , i stole roman 's life from him once already . kate : the dimeras stole roman 's life . anything that happened , all of that -- none of that was your fault . john : yes , it was . roman comes back . i 'm supposed to step aside and supposed to move on with my life without marlena , right ? wrong . what do i do ? i make love to his wife , knowing full well that we were breaking their wedding vows . marlena 's one of the most morally upstanding people that i know . i corrupted her . kate : no , that 's not true . that 's not true . you and marlena fell in love . i do n't think there 's any shame in that . you exchanged marriage vows as well . john : yeah , but our marriage was n't valid once it was revealed i was n't roman . kate : well , actually , your marriage is n't valid now . marlena was legally declared dead . you do n't feel that she 's any less your wife , do you ? john : no . but that 's another good point in favor of renewing our vows . and perhaps you and roman should think about doing the same thing . [ scene_break ] philip : so ? tell me , why were you calling out to shawn ? belle : i ... guess i must have been thinking about him . philip : yeah , i know . obviously , honey . the question is why ? belle : well , he was with me when i got the news about you , and he was very supportive , very concerned about both of us . philip : is that it ? are you sure it 's not because he 's a whole man , and i 'm not now ? [ scene_break ] lucas : what do you mean ? who else but nicole would conspire to keep you away from chloe ? brady : i do n't know , man . that 's the thing . chloe 's alive . that means nancy and craig have been lying to me . i can understand nicole lying to me , but chloe 's parents ? and chloe -- why has n't she revealed herself to me ? lucas : i do n't know , man . my gut tells me nicole knows more than she 's saying . just do n't give up , all right ? brady : i 'm not gon na give up . i mean , i love chloe . see , the truth is , i do n't trust nicole anymore , and that 's why i 'm lulling her into a false sense of security , you know , by telling her i believe her that chloe is really dead . lucas : that 's cool . i get that . brady : maybe she 'll get lazy and slip up . better yet , i 'll make her nervous , and she 'll run back to chloe and , basically , she 'll be leading me right to her . lucas : well , how you gon na do that ? brady : i do n't know . i 'll think of something . how about you , man ? have you figured out a way to get sami to tell you the truth about her involvement with tony ? lucas : no . the key to finding out what 's really going on between sami and tony is stan . bet that guy could tell us what sami was doing in the middle of a war zone with dimera . he could also prove to me and everybody else that sami was a victim , just like we all were . brady : that guy has a lot of questions to answer about himself . lucas : and believe me , he 's gon na pay for betraying us -- getting us captured like that and almost executed . if i ever see that guy again , i 'll tear him limb from limb . brady : save a piece for me . lucas : i will , definitely . brady : mmm . dude , i 'm sorry . i got to run . thanks for the coffee . lucas : no problem . brady : good luck to you , all right ? lucas : well , you , too . you too , man . with nicole , you are gon na need all the luck you can get . [ scene_break ] nicole : so what now , sami ? we 're just gon na stand here and call each other names ? sami : well , i do n't have anything else to do this morning . i do n't have a job , remember ? nicole : oh , please . let 's not do this again , okay ? sami : here 's the thing , nicole -- we know each other 's secrets , but if anyone else ever found out about them , we 'd lose the men that we love , not to mention the respect of our friends and family . well , it 's not exactly like either of us has friends , but you know what i mean . nicole : no , we do n't . and , yes , i do know what you mean . however , there is one difference , sami . i 'm in the clear . everything 's back to normal . sami : what do you mean , back to normal ? nicole : well , brady believes that chloe is dead . so even if you did tell him that i ruined her reconstructive surgery , he would never believe you . sami : well , i still need help making sure that no one finds out that i 'm stan . lucas is determined to find him , and he 's not gon na give up until he does . nicole : no , you 're right . you 're right . but tell me something , sami -- if i do n't need your help , why should i help you ? [ scene_break ] hope : what is it ? what 's in the letter ? bo : shawn 's court date has been moved up . he 's going to trial for crashing his bike into the church . hope : oh , god . bo : these are serious charges , hope . if he 's convicted , our son could go to prison . hope : what are we gon na do ? bo : well , we 'll call him and then call mickey , see what kind of defense he 's got planned . shawn d. : mom , dad , hi . hope : shawn . bo : i was just about to call you . shawn d. : i really do n't have too much time to talk . i just came by 'cause i need to borrow some money . bo : what ? you gon na try to repair that motorcycle of yours ? shawn d. : no , no , no . that 's not it . i need plane fare . i need to go to germany to be with belle . bo : like hell you do . [ scene_break ] belle : philip , you ca n't think like that . you ca n't start to feel like less of a man because of this injury . i 'm here with you , not shawn . and that 's where i 'm gon na stay , right by your side . i 'm your wife . philip : i 'm sorry , honey . i 'm just so -- so angry , and i feel helpless . but i should n't be taking that out on you . this is just stupid jealousy . i 'm sorry , okay ? belle : you do n't have anything to apologize for . i completely understand . and i 'm amazed at how well you 're handling this . but you do n't have to stay strong for me , okay ? if i 'm gon na help you through this , i need to know how you 're really feeling . you have to be completely honest with me . philip : i know . i know how important complete honesty is to you . [ sighs ] i love you , i love you . i love you so much . belle : i love you , too . john : there you go . kate : hi , honey . philip : hi , mom . hi , john . john : hey , kid . kate : did you get any sleep last night ? philip : yeah , i got a little . i think the medication helped . but i do n't want to become too dependent on it , you know ? john : sweetheart , buy you a cup of coffee ? it 'll give philip and his mom a chance to catch up on things . belle : oh , sure . i 'll be right outside . philip : belle , you know you do n't have to stay here . belle : i want to , okay ? i 'll be right back . philip : okay . john : hang in there , tough guy . philip : i will . thanks , john . [ scene_break ] kate : thanks . okay , can i get you anything ? philip : mom , belle just told me that roman and marlena are alive ? kate : yes . philip : that 's unbelievable . kate : i know . philip : i 'm so happy for you . kate : oh , sweetie . thank you . and as a matter of fact , i have some news about that . john and i were talking , and we decided that when we get back to salem , we 're going to renew our marriage vows . i mean john 's going to renew his with marlena , and roman and i will renew ours . philip : i think that is a great idea , mom . kate : yeah , we thought it would be , too . we 've all missed so much time with each other . i 've missed time with you . philip : we have tony dimera to thank for that . i want him caught , and i want him punished . and not just for what he did to us -- what he did to everyone , mom . kate : i know he will be . philip : [ sighs ] kate : [ thinking ] and so will shawn brady , as soon as he goes to trial . and then he will never come between you and belle again . [ scene_break ] shawn d. : i ca n't believe you wo n't help me out . bo : you got to leave belle and philip alone , son . shawn d. : right now , she 's over there with john and kate . between philip 's injury and their pressure on her , i 'm afraid i could lose her forever . bo : you ca n't lose what you do n't have . belle is married to philip . you 've got no right -- shawn d. : the hell i do n't ! i love her . bo : you 're not going over there . end of story . this is another reason you 're not leaving . your court date has been moved up . shawn d. : i 'm not worried . it 's not a big deal . hope : not a big deal ? you should be worried . these charges are very serious . shawn d. : not as serious -- bo : you leave the country right now , you 'll be violating the terms of your bail . you do n't get back in time for this trial , a warrant will be issued for your arrest . shawn d. : look , i could be back before anyone notices that i 'm gone . even if i do n't get back in time , mickey could ask for a delay . bo : i am sick and tired of your cavalier attitude . you 're not going any -- i 'm gon na call mickey , set up a meeting with him . maybe he can talk some sense into you . shawn d. : mom , you have to help me out . i have to be with belle . ( gentle acoustic guitar music ) [ scene_break ] mimi : i have something i have to tell you , too . rex : mimi , i already know what you 're going to say . you 're gon na tell me the same thing that you already told me , and that is that we 're done , and it 's over between us and that you 're guilty of trying to murder jan and that you belong in jail . but what you wo n't tell me is why you and jan even got into a fight in the first place -- what she 's holding over you . so i 've decided that i 'm just not gon na ask you anymore . okay , that 's what i wanted to say . mimi : you really do n't want to know ? rex : of course i want to know . but that answer is not gon na change anything . the only thing that 's gon na change something , mimi , is if you decide to withdraw your confession and you fight the charges against you to clear your name . mimi : i ca n't do that . rex : mimi , you 're wrong . i know how you can . mimi : i know what you 're trying to do here . you 're using reverse psychology . you think by not asking me what i 'm hiding , i 'm just going to confess . well , i wo n't . i mean , i - i ca n't because the simple truth is i 'm not hiding anything . rex : okay , so why did you and jan get into a fight , then ? mimi : because she 's a hateful person . we fought , and she fell , and now she 's in an irreversible coma , and i 'm guilty , and i deserve to go to jail . rex : sweetheart , you do not deserve to go to jail . but you are lying about not having anything to hide . [ scene_break ] sami : nicole , i think you should help me because -- because ... nicole : because , because , because . what ? i 'm waiting . sami : well , i think you 're on a slippery slope with brady . one false move , nicole , and you could wind up on your ass . so just like you said last night , would n't it be better to have an ally , someone who will help you when you need it and vice versa ? nicole : you 're gon na help me ? sami : it 's not because i want to , but we 're joined at the hip now , nicole , whether we like it or not . we have to keep each other 's secrets . and would n't you rather have me as a friend than an enemy ? would n't you rather i watch your back than stab it ? well ? nicole : i 'm thinking . sami : we ca n't stay here all night . jeez . nicole : oh ! [ sighs ] all right . fine . let 's shake on it . sami : let 's not get carried away . [ doorknob jiggles ] nicole : uh , that 's brady . just hide . it 's brady . find a place ! brady , hi .

[ scene_break ] philip : mom , i think it 's wonderful you and roman are getting a second chance . i think you deserve it . and now you 'll be able to spend the rest of your lives together like you wanted . kate : and you 're going to have a beautiful life with belle . philip : right now , that is all that 's getting me through this -- just knowing that i have her . because otherwise , mom , i do n't think i 'd be able to handle this . kate : you do have her . she loves you very , very much . philip : i know . she loves me . and if i did n't know it before , i know it now . i can see how much she loves me . kate : do n't you ever , ever doubt it . philip : no way . the vows that we took , mom , promises we made , they 're gon na last a lifetime . i know it . kate : i 'm more sure of that than anything . philip : so , speaking of vows , when are you and roman getting married again ? kate : well , um , i think actually what we 're going to do is have a double ceremony with john and marlena . but we 're not gon na do that until you 're there to witness it . philip : well , that 's probably not a good idea , mom . i have a feeling my recovery is gon na take a long , long time . john : baby , i ca n't even tell you how proud i am of you for honoring your commitment to philip . belle : i 'm his wife . in sickness and in health , right ? the doctor told me how important i was to philip 's recovery -- that i be there for him . john : what about shawn ? where does this leave the two of you ? [ scene_break ] hope : shawn , look at me . what do you want from me ? shawn d. : money . i need to get over to germany , mom . you believe in true love . i know you do . belle and i belong together the same way you and dad do . i ca n't live without her . i should be there right now . i feel bad that i 'm making her go through this without my support . mom , you have to help me get over there . i have no one else to turn to . [ scene_break ] mimi : yeah . i mean , there are some things that i have been keeping from you . a lot of things happened between jan and me that i never told you about . she 's just this nasty , horrible person who lived to make trouble for everyone . she lied so much , even she did n't know what the truth was anymore . rex : none of that is any secret . i think you 're just avoiding telling me what 's really going on with you . it does n't really matter . mimi : you keep saying that . what is going on ? what are you up to ? rex : you 'll see . mimi : no . tell me . i want to know . rex : let 's just say that by the time i 'm through , you 'll change your mind about confessing to a crime you did n't commit . [ scene_break ] kate : honey , you 're right . this treatment , your recovery is not gon na be quick , and it 's not gon na be easy . but you 're gon na have me , and you 're gon na have belle , and you 're gon na have the rest of your family , and you 're gon na have all of your friends , and everyone 's gon na be helping you through it . philip : eventually . but , mom , it could be months before i 'm even allowed to go home . kate : ordinarily . philip : what does that mean , ordinarily ? kate : ordinarily , you would be sent to walter reed back in the states for your treatment and your therapy , but john has pulled a few strings , and he 's made some phone calls and ... philip : and what ? kate : you 're gon na be doing your recovery back in salem . philip : what ? kate : yes . with belle by your side , where she belongs . philip : mom , really ? kate : mm - hmm . philip : this is the best news ever . now belle and i can be together every day . she does n't have to leave me ever again . kate : no , sweetheart , she does n't . she 'll never leave you again . john : where does this situation leave you and shawn ? belle : i 'm gon na be with philip as long as he needs me , dad . john : `` as long as he needs me . `` and what exactly does that mean ? belle : i mean ... i look at you and mom , and i see what a marriage should be , what that commitment really means . and i want to be to philip what you two are to each other -- someone he can count on and trust no matter what . right now , my place is with him . and shawn 's just gon na have to understand that .

[ scene_break ] john : you and i have nothing to feel guilty about . when i made love to you , when i asked you to marry me , we both thought roman and marlena were dead . kate : that 's true . john : you know , i 'm wrong feeling jealous and suspicious of them anyway . i mean , it 's only natural that they would grow closer when they were being held by tony . i mean , i 'm sure they leaned on each other . they 've got a history . and i 'm sure there 's nothing romantic about it . in fact , i 'm kind of glad that they were there for each other . kate : do you really believe that , or are you just trying to convince yourself because you accused marlena of having feelings for roman ? john : of course i feel bad about accusing her , especially knowing how the two of them felt when they saw us together . look , i stole roman 's life from him once already . kate : the dimeras stole roman 's life . anything that happened , all of that -- none of that was your fault . john : yes , it was . roman comes back . i 'm supposed to step aside and supposed to move on with my life without marlena , right ? wrong . what do i do ? i make love to his wife , knowing full well that we were breaking their wedding vows . marlena 's one of the most morally upstanding people that i know . i corrupted her . kate : no , that 's not true . that 's not true . you and marlena fell in love . i do n't think there 's any shame in that . you exchanged marriage vows as well . john : yeah , but our marriage was n't valid once it was revealed i was n't roman . kate : well , actually , your marriage is n't valid now . marlena was legally declared dead . you do n't feel that she 's any less your wife , do you ? john : no . but that 's another good point in favor of renewing our vows . and perhaps you and roman should think about doing the same thing . [ scene_break ] philip : so ? tell me , why were you calling out to shawn ? belle : i ... guess i must have been thinking about him . philip : yeah , i know . obviously , honey . the question is why ? belle : well , he was with me when i got the news about you , and he was very supportive , very concerned about both of us . philip : is that it ? are you sure it 's not because he 's a whole man , and i 'm not now ? [ scene_break ] lucas : what do you mean ? who else but nicole would conspire to keep you away from chloe ? brady : i do n't know , man . that 's the thing . chloe 's alive . that means nancy and craig have been lying to me . i can understand nicole lying to me , but chloe 's parents ? and chloe -- why has n't she revealed herself to me ? lucas : i do n't know , man . my gut tells me nicole knows more than she 's saying . just do n't give up , all right ? brady : i 'm not gon na give up . i mean , i love chloe . see , the truth is , i do n't trust nicole anymore , and that 's why i 'm lulling her into a false sense of security , you know , by telling her i believe her that chloe is really dead . lucas : that 's cool . i get that . brady : maybe she 'll get lazy and slip up . better yet , i 'll make her nervous , and she 'll run back to chloe and , basically , she 'll be leading me right to her . lucas : well , how you gon na do that ? brady : i do n't know . i 'll think of something . how about you , man ? have you figured out a way to get sami to tell you the truth about her involvement with tony ? lucas : no . the key to finding out what 's really going on between sami and tony is stan . bet that guy could tell us what sami was doing in the middle of a war zone with dimera . he could also prove to me and everybody else that sami was a victim , just like we all were . brady : that guy has a lot of questions to answer about himself . lucas : and believe me , he 's gon na pay for betraying us -- getting us captured like that and almost executed . if i ever see that guy again , i 'll tear him limb from limb . brady : save a piece for me . lucas : i will , definitely . brady : mmm . dude , i 'm sorry . i got to run . thanks for the coffee . lucas : no problem . brady : good luck to you , all right ? lucas : well , you , too . you too , man . with nicole , you are gon na need all the luck you can get .

[ scene_break ] marlena : i said ... where do you think you 're going ? john : going downstairs for some breakfast . you may be able to live on love and hope , but i need some real food . marlena : come on in . thanks . uh , table should work fine . thank you . john : i do n't own any currency . marlena : thanks so much . woman : thank you , ma'am . john : this place does n't offer room service . marlena : i made a special plan with the manager . john : so you can keep an eye on me ? do n't you trust me ? marlena : i do n't trust you . why do n't you have your food , then we 'll go see colleen , get the rest of her story , and then ... then we can go home ? john : do whatever you have to do , blondie . i 'm not going anywhere ... till i have completed my mission .

[ scene_break ] belle : not that i can tell so far . it seems like crystal and colleen actually did a pretty good job taking care of her . she did say that she missed us and that she was scared at the beginning , but i guess crystal told her they were on vacation or something and that she 'd see us again , which she bought because here we are , so we 'll keep an eye on her when we get home , though . philip : well , if there 's anything you need , just ask . belle : so ... do you think colleen really knows anything about brady ? chloe : no , i think if she knew anything , she would have said something last night . belle : i 'm really worried about him . chloe : so am i . [ scene_break ] shawn d. : well , my grandfather 's here . he 's resting , then we 're gon na take him to see colleen . philip : that sounds like a family thing . chloe : yeah , i - i do n't think that philip or i should be there . shawn d. : i understand . philip : do you want us to watch claire ? shawn d. : no , we want to keep her with us . philip : do you want to have dinner together ? shawn d. : we 'll , um , let you know . we 're gon na go on a walk now . come on , let 's go on that walk . belle : okay . shawn d. : ready ? let 's go . chloe : bye . wow . that was n't awkward , was it ? philip : could have been worse .

[ laughter ] kayla : so , our aunt claims that she was responsible for claire 's kidnapping ? steve : does she really think that stefano would hurt that little baby ? bo : apparently . hope : she 's convinced our whole family was in danger . steve : well , i have some news ... about stefano . he ... is taking a little trip to the state of catatonia . he 's on life support . bo : what happened ? steve : doctor ? kayla : all things point to a massive stroke , but the test results do n't support that . bo : so abe and roman , they 're checking into this ? steve : i would n't exactly use the word `` checking . `` nobody 's losing any sleep over it . kayla : we do n't exactly know what 's going on , but lexie and e.j . and tony have put him in long - term care . so stefano is out of the picture for now . bo : we 'll celebrate later . right now , we got to make sure that pop sees his sister . he 's in for one hell of a reunion . [ scene_break ] e.j . : alexandra , lucas shot me , okay , and samantha left him for it . now , i understand that she ca n't just switch off her emotions like that . i 'm sure that deep down somewhere , a part of her still loves lucas . and before you even go there , i understand that she will probably never love me , okay ? but i have accepted that . now , we share a child together , okay ? and allie is , in some ways , my responsibility . her concerns are my concerns . lexie : you are in a very dicey situation , e.j . e.j . : what would you have me do ? would i walk away , hmm ? leave allie here ? she 's sick . samantha trusted me to be here alone with her daughter . that says something . lexie : look , your history with sami does n't exactly show that you 've earned her trust . e.j . : i 'm working on that , okay ? i understand what you 're saying , but lucas is n't here , all right ? it does n't really matter what they 're talking about down at the jail right now because at the end of the day , she 's going to come home here to this house , and i will be here and her son will be here and her daughter will be here and lucas wo n't be . [ scene_break ] lucas : listen to me , sami -- there is n't gon na be any trial , not now . i pled guilty . sami : change your plea . lucas : i 'm not changing anything . my mind is made up . i 've made my decision . sami : why ? lucas : because you were right . i did it because i was jealous , because i was insecure , and i did n't trust in our love . that 's why i did it . i pled guilty . i do n't feel anything toward e.j . i have no remorse toward him at all , but i do feel horrible about what i did to you and our family . [ scene_break ] marlena : want to go outside ? take a walk , get some fresh air ? john : no . i just want to see this old lady and get it over with . marlena : get what over with ? john : this pointless conversation you insist on having that 's supposed to disinfect the area of my brain that stefano contaminated . marlena : i just want to talk to her . i want to see what happens . john : whatever . like i said , the sooner we get this over with , the better .

[ scene_break ] steve : [ sighing ] oh , man . i do n't know , sweetness . do you think we should have told him his sister 's alive before he sees her ? kayla : [ sighs ] steve : he 's looking kind of frail . there 's no telling how he 's gon na react . kayla : i think there 's gon na be joy . i mean , at least i hope . i mean , it 's difficult for him here . he loves this country , but there are so many painful memories for him . i just hope this trip helps erase some of them . [ scene_break ] bo : pop should be here by now . i 'm surprised steve and kay did n't call when they landed . hope : the important thing is he gets here . my god , brady . i ca n't even imagine -- all those years he grieved , blaming himself for his sister 's death . bo : i -- i still do n't understand why she did n't tell him , why she allowed him to suffer all these years . hope : we ca n't possibly know what she was going through back then . bo : yeah , i guess . you know , if this back does n't feel any better , i might have to sleep on the floor tonight . hope : no worries . i 'll give you a back rub later . bo : i 'm gon na hold you to that . hope : ooh . i 'll hold you to more than that unless , of course , your back 's bothering you too much . bo : i 'll make the sacrifice . hope : oh , well , do n't strain yourself , brady . bo : do n't you worry . i am gon na have to talk to colleen about what she did to pop and the family . hope : i suppose she did what she thought was best back then . bo : yeah , well , she should have dealt with santo face - to - face when she found out he was married instead of pretending to kill herself . she was gon na be a nun . she not only betrayed her vows , she lied to the church and her family . hope : brady , you read the letters . you know that santo was the great love of her life . and you also know that when love is involved , you do n't always act rationally . i 'll bet you a part of her wanted to punish him by making him think that she was dead . bo : but the thing is she ended up punishing pop and her family . there had to be another way to resolve this . this little plan of hers -- it did n't work . she did n't free santo or herself from that love . she just condemned them both to a life of loneliness and regret and sorrow . hope : maybe that 's exactly what she wanted and why stefano is so hell - bent on revenge , especially after finding out that she was alive . brady , we do n't know what she felt or what she went through back then . we do n't know what drove her to do what she did . but do n't forget -- santo led her on , made her believe that they were gon na have this amazing future , and all the time , he was married . he 's the one who made false promises . he 's the one who lied . bo : of course he did . he 's a damn dimera . [ scene_break ] marlena : i said ... where do you think you 're going ? john : going downstairs for some breakfast . you may be able to live on love and hope , but i need some real food . marlena : come on in . thanks . uh , table should work fine . thank you . john : i do n't own any currency . marlena : thanks so much . woman : thank you , ma'am . john : this place does n't offer room service . marlena : i made a special plan with the manager . john : so you can keep an eye on me ? do n't you trust me ? marlena : i do n't trust you . why do n't you have your food , then we 'll go see colleen , get the rest of her story , and then ... then we can go home ? john : do whatever you have to do , blondie . i 'm not going anywhere ... till i have completed my mission . [ scene_break ] philip : what am i gon na have to say to get you to believe that i am over belle and moving on ? chloe : there 's nothing you can say , philip . you 're gon na have to show me that you mean it . philip : why would i want to prove anything to you ? chloe : you should n't , but you should care about proving it to yourself . philip : speaking of proving yourself ... since brady is clearly still missing and probably in danger , you 're gon na have to continue to prove that you had nothing to do with that . chloe : i do n't know that i can prove anything . i just know that i need to find him , but i do n't know how . philip : you know i had men looking for claire . i 'm gon na keep them on retainer to look for brady . he 's my nephew , chloe , and my dad 's been worried sick ever since we found out he was missing . he 's sparing no expense , and we wo n't stop until we find him . chloe : thank you . i need to know what happened to brady and why . philip : we 'll find out .

[ scene_break ] belle : not that i can tell so far . it seems like crystal and colleen actually did a pretty good job taking care of her . she did say that she missed us and that she was scared at the beginning , but i guess crystal told her they were on vacation or something and that she 'd see us again , which she bought because here we are , so we 'll keep an eye on her when we get home , though . philip : well , if there 's anything you need , just ask . belle : so ... do you think colleen really knows anything about brady ? chloe : no , i think if she knew anything , she would have said something last night . belle : i 'm really worried about him . chloe : so am i . [ scene_break ] shawn d. : well , my grandfather 's here . he 's resting , then we 're gon na take him to see colleen . philip : that sounds like a family thing . chloe : yeah , i - i do n't think that philip or i should be there . shawn d. : i understand . philip : do you want us to watch claire ? shawn d. : no , we want to keep her with us . philip : do you want to have dinner together ? shawn d. : we 'll , um , let you know . we 're gon na go on a walk now . come on , let 's go on that walk . belle : okay . shawn d. : ready ? let 's go . chloe : bye . wow . that was n't awkward , was it ? philip : could have been worse . [ scene_break ] john : wasting our time seeing that old lady . marlena : you know , she may say something that would provide a trigger to help you get your memory back . john : i do n't see how . marlena : put the spoon down , please . john : you think i 'm gon na try to use this as a weapon ? what would i do ? spoon someone to death ? marlena : i do n't know . i do n't know what you 're capable of doing . but i do n't want to take any chances . john : i told you , i 'm not gon na hurt anyone ... especially not that helpless old woman .

[ laughter ] kayla : so , our aunt claims that she was responsible for claire 's kidnapping ? steve : does she really think that stefano would hurt that little baby ? bo : apparently . hope : she 's convinced our whole family was in danger . steve : well , i have some news ... about stefano . he ... is taking a little trip to the state of catatonia . he 's on life support . bo : what happened ? steve : doctor ? kayla : all things point to a massive stroke , but the test results do n't support that . bo : so abe and roman , they 're checking into this ? steve : i would n't exactly use the word `` checking . `` nobody 's losing any sleep over it . kayla : we do n't exactly know what 's going on , but lexie and e.j . and tony have put him in long - term care . so stefano is out of the picture for now . bo : we 'll celebrate later . right now , we got to make sure that pop sees his sister . he 's in for one hell of a reunion . [ scene_break ] e.j . : alexandra , lucas shot me , okay , and samantha left him for it . now , i understand that she ca n't just switch off her emotions like that . i 'm sure that deep down somewhere , a part of her still loves lucas . and before you even go there , i understand that she will probably never love me , okay ? but i have accepted that . now , we share a child together , okay ? and allie is , in some ways , my responsibility . her concerns are my concerns . lexie : you are in a very dicey situation , e.j . e.j . : what would you have me do ? would i walk away , hmm ? leave allie here ? she 's sick . samantha trusted me to be here alone with her daughter . that says something . lexie : look , your history with sami does n't exactly show that you 've earned her trust . e.j . : i 'm working on that , okay ? i understand what you 're saying , but lucas is n't here , all right ? it does n't really matter what they 're talking about down at the jail right now because at the end of the day , she 's going to come home here to this house , and i will be here and her son will be here and her daughter will be here and lucas wo n't be . [ scene_break ] lucas : listen to me , sami -- there is n't gon na be any trial , not now . i pled guilty . sami : change your plea . lucas : i 'm not changing anything . my mind is made up . i 've made my decision . sami : why ? lucas : because you were right . i did it because i was jealous , because i was insecure , and i did n't trust in our love . that 's why i did it . i pled guilty . i do n't feel anything toward e.j . i have no remorse toward him at all , but i do feel horrible about what i did to you and our family . [ scene_break ] marlena : want to go outside ? take a walk , get some fresh air ? john : no . i just want to see this old lady and get it over with . marlena : get what over with ? john : this pointless conversation you insist on having that 's supposed to disinfect the area of my brain that stefano contaminated . marlena : i just want to talk to her . i want to see what happens . john : whatever . like i said , the sooner we get this over with , the better . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] marlena : come in . woman : miss colleen 's asking that everyone please come to her room . marlena : did she say why ? woman : no , only that she wanted you , mr. black , and all the brady 's there .

[ sighs ] and i know you always felt responsible for this , and that 's something i 'll never be able to forgive meself for . there 's not a day that i did n't think of you and miss you , little brother . shawn : oh , i have no words to express what i 'm feeling . i mean , it 's -- it 's overwhelming .

[ scene_break ] lexie : e.j . , the truth is , you have no idea what 's going on between sami and lucas right now , so stop thinking about it , okay ? look , just concentrate on taking care of these children and just -- you can ask sami what happened with lucas when she gets back .

[ rock music playing ] liam : [ chuckles ] steffy : i spent too many nights alone reminiscing about all our great moments together . liam : hmm . steffy : it was one thing to think about them , to talk about them . but it 's another to relive them . one place in particular stands out far -- liam : do n't even play with me . aspen . are you kidding ? steffy : [ laughs ] you remembered . of course . our special place . liam : yeah . steffy : hold that thought . liam : okay .

[ sighs ] if it were n't for me , we 'd probably still be married right now . i 'm sorry i left you . i 'm sorry we lost our child and we were both going through so much pain . and i should have stayed here with you . liam : it 's okay . steffy : i love you . i do love you . and now i 'm back here . and we can start back up , keep the adventures rolling . i mean , i have so many things planned -- liam : okay , all right , wait , wait . [ chuckles ] before we get ahead of ourselves , i have to tell you something . and , um ... steffy : liam -- liam : it has to do with ivy . steffy : whatever happened last night , i mean , i know it was hard for you , but you had to do the right thing . liam : can you just listen to me for a second ? something happened last night . steffy : okay , i 'm a big girl . like i said , whatever happened , as long as it was the last time , okay ? liam : that 's not -- it 's not that . ivy and i -- oh , this is hard to explain . um ... and it 's not -- it 's not how it 's gon na sound . steffy : not like what sounds ? liam : just promise me you wo n't overreact to this . steffy : okay , liam , when do i overreact ? come on . liam : yeah , you 're right . you do n't . okay . um ... [ chuckles ] ivy and i , we -- we g -- we , um ... steffy : just say it . what ? just say -- liam : we got married . steffy : [ chuckles ] wait , it -- it just sounded like you said you got married . no . no way . that 's ridiculous . there 's -- you and ivy ? ! married ? !Summarize.[/INST]ivy walks out of the kitchen thinking she has that glow about her like an old married woman . but she is embarrassed that she fell asleep so early last night . they will have to make up for it tonight . liam reminds her again they only married to keep her in the country so nothing has really changed . she will bring some clothes over to make it look real . ridge is designing but ca n't get steffy 's attention . she is knee deep in thought looking at liam 's picture and finally tells her dad that she does not want to joke about it and hopes it will last the rest of their lives . she will see liam later today since he is not at the office . ridge tells her that he wants her to be happy but last he looked liam was with ivy . steffy thinks perhaps last night may have been a game changer . this is now their time and she wants to remember every single detail they shared before .</s> | 4,583 |

'cause i think the diamond has a better chance of lasting for the rest of our lives . hayden : i ca n't believe you did all this for me . finn : i 'd do anything for you . do n't you know that ? uh , listen , if you have second thoughts about the ring , we 'll , um ... we 'll get you another one . hayden : no , this is -- this ring is the only ring that i want . in fact , i 'm gon na go get it sized right now . finn : what ? right now ? you just got here . hayden : no , i mean , it 's -- this ring is much too precious to me . just like you .

[ scene_break ] josslyn : you probably think i 'm crazy . you know , first , i go on and on about how much i hate sonny , and then when something happens to him , i 'm all scared . oscar : i think that 's called being human . seriously . it sounds like you have complicated feelings about sonny , i mean , which makes sense . people are n't just one thing or another , and the fact that you feel different about him makes me think you see him more clearly than the other people who just constantly condemn him . or the ones who think he walks on water . josslyn : that 's funny you would say that . people tend to be pretty extreme about sonny , you know . either they think that he 's a total criminal and completely in the wrong or they think he 's this wonderful , benevolent , misunderstood guy . [ scoffs ] but the truth is , you know , he 's a little bit of both . sonny can be kind , generous . other times , he can be just awful , like he was to my dad . oscar : well , then you should feel proud of yourself for not falling into that trap . josslyn : [ chuckles ] oscar : you 're very perceptive . josslyn : not always . no , i was a total brat about sonny . oscar : i do n't think you could ever be a brat . i should probably get going . josslyn : so you 're not gon na give that to me ? oscar : sorry . space much ? i mean , it was only the whole reason i came over . remember that piece of metal that we found last night outside the old distillery ? that 's it .

[ elizabeth snickers ] kate : well , and that person would be you ? carly : yes , it is . elizabeth : well , there 's nothing you can do . carly : yeah , you would think that . you would , because you 're passive . you never put yourself on the line for jason , even though he 's done it for you a thousand times . jason and i are different . he needs me , and i 'm here . elizabeth : yeah , well , that 's real smart , carly . scheme your way into a courtroom -- that 's going to help . kate : you ca n't just waltz up to the stand claiming you 're a witness . you have to be on the guard 's list . [ door opens ] officer : ma'am , i 'm going to need to see a copy of your subpoena . [ scene_break ] diane : the district attorney is trying to imply guilt by inundating this jury with images of my client firing a gun . he 's insulting their intelligence and wasting this court 's time . we have all seen the so - called evidence . can we please move on ? ric : what the jury saw , ms. miller , was a terrifying blur -- things were happening so fast that there was n't time to react . the reason for showing the tape in slow - motion was to see how mr. morgan reacted , and that is with the precision of a cold - blooded killer . diane : objection . your honor , my client was obviously acting in self - defense , and the district attorney is well aware that no charges have been brought to indicate otherwise . as i have pointed out to this court , my client was in police custody , handcuffed and shackled at the time that this attempt was made on his life . ric : the tape speaks to the ability of the defendant to carry out the crime that he is on trial for , your honor . judge : i 'll allow it . [ gunfire ] [ gunfire ] ric : that 's the last image lorenzo alcazar can remember -- jason morgan firing a gun . diane : objection ! judge : sustained . strike that from the record . mr. lansing , you know better than to address the jury . ric : your honor , the state calls to the stand mrs. elizabeth spencer . [ scene_break ] logan : i ai n't the one working you here . lulu : right -- coop is . logan : why do you think he keeps feeding you all that garbage about how dangerous i am ? lulu : maybe because coop 's a decent guy who does n't want to see me get hurt . logan : are you really that blind ? all right , coop likes you , okay ? he saw us getting close and he did n't like it , so he tried to scare you off . why do you think he keeps telling you about this supposed -- horrible thing i did over in iraq ? lulu : well , judging how you just attacked coop , i would say it was more than something you `` supposedly did . `` logan : you know what ? i was not going to stand there and let the guy trash me . you 're the one good thing that i 've got -- lulu : oh , god , save the act . i do n't believe a word you say . logan : because of coop ? lulu , the guy just wants you all to himself . lulu : oh , great -- let 's settle this once and for all . logan thinks that you have a thing for me -- is that true ? coop : i 'm with maxie . lulu : i told you . logan : okay , do you honestly expect him to admit his feelings for you when his girlfriend 's standing right behind him , hmm ? coop : we need to talk -- alone . [ scene_break ] judge : i think we 've all seen enough for one day . court resumes at 10 : 00 tomorrow . the jury is dismissed until then . bailiff : all rise . court is now adjourned . mayor floyd : so far , so good . ric : trust me ; it only gets better from here . mayor floyd : you were right about the ambush tape -- after the jurors saw it , they were looking at morgan like he belongs in a cage . ric : he does . mayor floyd : well , do n't get overconfident . and you might want to rethink calling lucky spencer 's wife as a witness . she used to be your wife , too , did n't she ? ric : you know she was . mayor floyd : then why muddy the waters by risking a conflict - of - interest allegation ? ric : elizabeth is going to give me what i need to convict jason . [ scene_break ] diane : do you have to be so good at your job ? ric did a lot of damage with that footage . he wanted to paint you as a cold - blooded killer , and your actions on that tape just proved his point . jason : what was i supposed to do , let them kill me ? diane : no , of course not , jason . look , i can argue that you were acting in self - defense till i am blue in the face , but it is not going to erase what that jury just saw . and they saw you -- not scared . they saw you calm and focused and lethal . and it just validates the d.a . 's allegation that you are a professional killer . [ diane sighs ] jason : what are my chances ? diane : yeah , well , considering the evidence that lansing has in reserve , i 'd say we need all the help we can get .

[ scene_break ] carly : just a peek . let me in for five minutes . how 'd it go ? diane : ahem . ric lansing had a strong case before this trial even started . the footage that he just played of jason shooting those three men who ambushed him outside the pcpd just improved it . carly : so it 's bad ? diane : to be honest with you , as an attorney , i can not imagine being in a worse position . and i just tried to tell jason that , and he showed very little reaction . carly : jason needs me . diane : i 'm sorry , carly , but that 's impossible . carly : you -- diane : the judge has closed the trial to the public . carly : can you call me as a witness ? that 's the only way to get me in that courtroom .

[ scene_break ] coop : what is wrong with you , saying all that stuff about me and lulu , while maxie 's standing right there ? logan : i 'm just returning the favor , pal . you want me to lay off , stop trying to scare lulu away from me . coop : i told you to leave lulu alone . logan : who the hell are you to tell me to do anything ? coop : somebody who does n't want to see lulu get hurt . logan : hey , i would never hurt her . coop : yeah , that 's what you say now , and then something happens and you lose it . all right , i know what you 're capable of , logan . i saw you in iraq . logan : listen to me , okay ? that has nothing to do with this . coop : sure it does , if only because you 're still mad at yourself . all right , do n't take it out on lulu spencer . logan : i would never do anything to that girl . i care a lot about her . she 's one of the first people i found that i can actually be myself around . coop : if you really cared about her , you 'd tell her what happened over there . let her decide if she still wants to be with you .

[ scene_break ] diane : carly , i 'm sorry , but there is no way i am going to call you as a witness . carly : you have got to counteract sam 's testimony . i know jason better than anyone . i should be on that stand telling the jury what kind of person he is . diane : look , i appreciate you wanting to help a friend , but your testimony could do much more harm than good . carly : we go beyond friends , okay ? i do n't know how to explain it to you , but i 'm connected to jason in ways i 've never been to anyone else . that 's how i know right now he needs me . diane : jason is handling this remarkably well . he 's not angry , he 's not frustrated . on the contrary , he seems to -- carly : he 's shutting down inside , okay ? he 's trying to make himself feel dead inside so he can deal with being locked up . do n't tell me that you are buying into ric 's crap that he 's feeding the jury ? jason feels things deeper than anyone i know , okay ? he 's just not showing it , and right now he 's feeling alone . he needs someone who loves him and believes in him . i 'm asking you to let it be me . [ scene_break ] lucky : i will always be grateful to jason that he brought jake back home . spinelli : no offense , dude , but you have a seriously messed - up way of showing it . i mean , the guy saved your son , okay , and -- and your thanks is to haul him away in handcuffs ? lucky : okay , i arrested jason because it was my duty . spinelli : the d.a . of darkness has an agenda , okay ? with stone cold out of the way , mr. corinthos , sir is that much more vulnerable . lucky : okay , the bottom line is that jason broke the law . there 's nothing you or i can do about it . spinelli : i worked for evil al , and then he tried to kill me -- the dude is seriously lethal . i hated him , i `` hated `` him , and you did n't investigate me -- nor the other legions of evildoers that would want to kill him , as well -- like covert - ops type people that can order his termination from the luxury of their yacht . lucky : okay , if the jury finds jason guilty , you ca n't do anything to change it ! spinelli : ah . stone cold ? i , the jackal , am here to testify on your behalf . lucky : i 'm going to let you try to explain to him why that 's a bad idea . [ door closes ] spinelli : look , dude , i -- i know this is hard for you , okay ? jason : i -- i 've been in lockup before . spinelli : no , no , no , no . i 'm talking about fair elizabeth 's spouse . i mean , the dude is walking around oblivious to the fact that he 's been entrusted with your most precious progeny . you know , perhaps lucky would be more keen to secure your freedom if he -- if he knew the truth . [ scene_break ] lulu : elizabeth ? what are you doing here ? elizabeth : i 'm just trying to figure some things out . lulu : how 's that going for you ? elizabeth : i 'm still working on it . what are you doing here in the courthouse ? lulu : um , i was looking for lucky -- i -- i need a favor . elizabeth : oh . well , is there something i can do for you ? lulu : huh -- not unless you can pull someone 's military record ? elizabeth : is this about that logan guy ? lulu : how do you know about logan ? elizabeth : nikolas came to the hospital . he had mentioned that logan was n't the type of guy you should be seeing . lulu : okay , i 'm not seeing logan . we had one date -- technically , half a date -- and that 's probably all that we 're ever going to have . so nikolas can just relax and mind his own business . elizabeth : well , he 's always going to worry about you , lulu . lulu : well , it 's not just nikolas . one of logan 's old army buddies came up to me and warned me about him , saying there was a lot i did n't know about him . elizabeth : hmm . well , i 'm sure lucky will be more than willing to help you . he probably could use a distraction right now . he 's so uptight . i mean , with the whole jake 's kidnapping , and then jason 's trial -- it 's really hard not to think about it , much less objectively . after everything that jason has done for us , i do n't know how i 'm going to get up on that stand and testify against him . lulu : it 's probably not going to be as bad as you think . i mean , i would n't worry about it . nothing 's going to come out in court . elizabeth : what do you mean ? [ scene_break ] ric : lucky , hey , just the man i wanted to see . lucky : why is that ? ric : well , i want to talk to you about elizabeth 's testimony . believe me ; if i did n't think i needed it to secure a conviction , i would 've never had her subpoenaed . lucky : i do n't see why putting elizabeth on the stand is going to help you win your case . ric : well , i would think that you , of all people , would understand what i 'm up against here . jason has subverted the law for years , and i want to change all of that . lucky : yeah , i just do n't want it to come at elizabeth 's expense . ric : i 'm not going to put elizabeth up on that stand and grill her . but the fact remains she is the last person that we know of to have seen jason before lorenzo alcazar was murdered . lucky : for five minutes when he stopped by her room at the hospital . ric : at which time he received a phone call -- presumably from sonny -- ordering the hit on alcazar . look , i need to question elizabeth in order to establish a chain of events for the jury . all she has to do is get up on the stand and tell the truth . believe me ; it 'll be over before elizabeth knows it . [ scene_break ] lulu : ric wants the jury to think that jason 's some kind of cold , heartless monster , right ? but the minute that you get on that stand , you 're going to blow that image apart . think about it -- how many times has jason saved your life , not to mention jake 's ? three ? more ? he 's not going to give you the chance to make jason look like some kind of hero in front of the jury , so , you know , if anything , he 'll probably have you up there long enough to answer one , maybe two questions . elizabeth : yeah . yeah , ric -- he did say that my testimony was going to be used mainly to establish that jason was in my hospital room when he got the phone call , so maybe you 're right . and ric knows how i feel about jason , so why -- why keep me on the stand any longer than he has to ? i 'm just going to get up there , confirm that jason got the phone call , and -- yeah , it 'll all be over . [ scene_break ] spinelli : i -- i know you gave up baby jake martin in respect to fair elizabeth 's wishes , but do n't -- do n't you think it would be better for everyone if the truth came out now rather than later ? jason : the longer this trial goes on , the more i know i can never -- i can never claim jake . spinelli : why does the jackal get the feeling you 're giving up ? jason : things did n't go really well today . spinelli : that 's why you 're determined on keeping the secret , right ? you think you 're going to be convicted , and you do n't want baby jake to know that his father 's incarcerated . jason : i do n't want jake to hear his father described the way i was in the courtroom today , or grow up feeling ashamed or afraid of me . spinelli : oh -- baby jake would be proud to have you as a father . and , yes , some of your -- some of the aspects of your chosen career path are a bit dangerous , but , i mean , you would never do anything to put the small stone cold one -- jason : i do n't want my son to get caught in the crossfire the next time somebody decides to try and take me out , okay ?

[ scene_break ] jerry : what did i tell you ? i told you to keep an eye on my brother . i told you to follow jax and make sure he was safe . was that so hard to do ? now you tell me that you 've lost him , and this is the first time i hear about i if i do not find my brother very soon , you will wish that you had never been born . do i make myself clear , you imbecile ? [ pounding on door ] jerry : yes !

[ scene_break ] irina : if you 're half as good as your brother is in bed , this could turn out to be an enjoyable afternoon . jax : well , unfortunately , we 'll never know . irina : why is that ? jax : because i 'm a happily married man who does n't cheat on his wife . irina : it 's only cheating if you get caught . jax : thanks for the offer , but i 'll have to pass . irina : how can such a decent , loyal man like you be related to such an uncaring bastard like jerry ? jax : i take it things did n't end too well between you and my brother , huh ? irina : you might say that . jax : and that 's why i 'm here , is n't it , because you 're still holding a grudge ? irina : very perceptive . irina : i 'm going to enjoy having you here -- at least until your brother arrives . then we 'll have to get down to business . jax : yeah . and what is that , exactly ? irina : i 'm going to kill you while jerry watches .

[ scene_break ] lucky : elizabeth , are you all right ? elizabeth : oh , yeah . yeah , i 'm just sitting here thinking . lucky : about what ? [ elizabeth sighs ] elizabeth : about my testimony . lucky : i -- i ran into ric earlier . elizabeth : well , did he tell you why he 's calling me as a witness when i do n't know a thing about alcazar 's murder ? lucky : he said that if you testify that jason got a call right before alcazar got killed , that he will try to convince the jury that it was most likely sonny who ordered the hit . elizabeth : i do n't know who was on the phone . jason picked up , he hung up , told me had to go , that was it . that 's all i know . lucky : okay , then you tell him that , then you get out of it . jason 's fate is in the jury 's hands , not yours . [ scene_break ] ric : this is a one - time deal . if you plead out to second - degree murder , you can end this right now . you 'll serve 20 years without parole , but you will save elizabeth the pain of having to testify against you . so i guess you got to ask yourself a question . what 's more important to you -- your freedom , or elizabeth 's peace of mind ? now , you think about that , jason . because if i get elizabeth up on that stand , i am going to ask her about the nature of her relationship with you . and since she 's already been sworn in under oath , she 's going to have to admit that the two of you were lovers , and while i 'm there , i might as well go all the way and ask if little jacob martin -- interesting choice in initials , by the way . i will have to ask elizabeth under oath if little jacob martin spencer is really your son . [ next_on ] jax : you 're going to kill me ? irina : but not until your brother arrives . jerry : i 'm glad you showed up , because i need your assistance . kate : i did n't realize you had been called to testify . sam : i am going to wreck elizabeth 's life . bailiff : do you swear to tell the truth , the whole truth , and nothing but the truth | carly , kate , and elizabeth all wind up in the witness waiting room together until the guard asks to see carly 's subpoena , which she does not have because it does not exist , and then tells them that the judge has dismissed the witnesses for the day . after playing the damaging video of jason firing in self defense , very professionally , twice , ric wants to show it a third time , prompting strenuous objections from diane . logan tries to get back into lulu 's good graces and tells her that cooper has a thing for her , which coop denies . in russia , a woman questions a chained jax and reveals she plans to kill him in front of jerry . jerry 's mood turns ugly when he discovers that jax has vanished . spinelli panics when he overhears ric threatening to grill elizabeth on the witness stand if jason does not cooperate . the deal ric offers is second degree murder , for which jason will serve twenty years without parole . otherwise , the truth about jake will come out on the stand . | <s>[INST] [ knock on door ] lulu : hey . how 's the injury ? coop : a limb blown off is an injury . lulu : well , i bet you would n't use a dirty sock to stop the bleeding . sit , i have bandages . i feel like this is my fault , i should n't have told logan what you said . coop : well , do n't apologize , all i should 've given you a heads - up a lot sooner . lulu : i saw how he sucker - punched you . he was worse than wrong -- he took a cheap , which is what a coward does . i just -- i do n't understand how he can be so awful one minute , and then -- i mean , was i imagining it , or does he have his good moments , too ? coop : yeah , well , logan can be okay , all right , but then he can turn on you .

[ scene_break ] woman : you okay ? jerry : did i say you could talk ? [ scene_break ] [ speaking russian ] jax : not that i have n't enjoyed your hospitality , gentlemen , but if it 's a ransom you 're after , you do n't have to hold me prisoner waiting for someone else to pay it . i 've got enough money to secure my own release . so why do n't you just name your price and we can get down to it ? man : you will have to talk to the boss first . jax : how does $ 5 million grab you , huh ? woman : that 's a generous offer . however , it 's not your money that interests me . [ scene_break ] kate : as if calling me as a witness in a murder trial is n't bad enough , this ridiculous d.a . is refusing me access to my cell phone and my p.d.a . i have a magazine to run , and now because of this , i have a great deal of damage control . [ kate sighs ] kate : do you have any idea what 's taking so long ? elizabeth : i think ric is showing the jury a -- a tape of jason being transferred to the pcpd . when he got out of the van , a group of gunmen opened fire . kate : well , yeah , it was all over the news -- and jason was in shackles and , clearly , he was firing in self - defense . why is the d.a . wasting everybody 's time replaying the tape ? elizabeth : because ric is trying to make him look like a professional killer . and if the jury believes it , then jason 's going to spend the rest of his life in a prison cell . kate : what are you doing here ? carly : i 'm going to be a witness . [ scene_break ] [ gunfire ] ric : um , your honor , i would like to show the footage in slow - motion to show -- diane : your honor , objection . i -- i 'm sorry , but the -- the district attorney has now been allowed to play the tape in its entirety twice . slowing it down and playing it a third time is excessive . my client was the victim here . he was acting in self - defense . ric : the jury saw your clit shoot and kill three men while trying to escape police custody . diane : objection -- conjecture ! there is nothing on that tape to indicate that the ambush was the result of an escape attempt . ric : well , maybe you should look at it again . diane : oh [ scene_break ] coop : logan saved my life in iraq and i ca n't forget that , all right , but there 's a lot about him that 's trouble . i mean , i do n't know if that comes from a messed - up childhood , or what . lulu : like maybe what happened in iraq ? coop : yeah , that 's for him to tell you . [ coop groans ] coop : we 've all done things that we 're not proud of . lulu : you , too ? coop : yeah , you bet . oh -- lulu : oh , okay , let me help you . hang -- hang on , hang on . maxie : get the hell away from him . [ scene_break ] woman : what 's that for ? jerry : keep your hair like that until i call you again . woman : for this kind of money , i 'll look like any woman you want . throw in an extra grand , i 'll sound like her , too . jerry : i thought i was paying you not to talk . woman : all i 'm saying is for the right price , i can be just like you woman you mentioned -- irina , right ? jerry : shut up ! keep your mouth shut -- if you do n't want to be shot like irina was ! do you understand ? get out . out ! jerry : get me an update on jax . i want to know how well my brother is doing . [ scene_break ] irina : you 'll have to excuse my friends . they can be overzealous at times . jax : that 's one way of putting it . irina : you 've healed up remarkably well , under the circumstances . most men of your privilege and stature would have been broken within the first hour . your willpower is quite impressive , mr. jacks . how is that ? jax : you know , you seem to know who i am . but i 'm at a disadvantage because i ca n't say the same about you . irina : that will come in time . jax : why wait ? i 've already offered to meet your demands . irina : but you have n't even heard them yet . jax : if it 's not about money , why are you holding me hostage ? irina : maybe i just wanted to spend some time with jerry 's little brother . [ scene_break ] lulu : where do you get off warning maxie about me and coop ? logan : she is dating the guy . i figure she has a right to know that her boyfriend 's messing around on her . lulu : oh , please , this has nothing to do with maxie . you 're just pissed at coop for warning me about you , and so you 're trying to get even by telling maxie that something 's going on between us ? logan : looks like i was n't far off . you were just up in the guy 's room , were n't you ? lulu : and if i was , how is that any of your business ? logan : oh , come on , lulu , the guy is playing with you . lulu : ha -- that 's actually funny coming from you . logan : what is that supposed to mean ? lulu : you have been playing me from day one -- acting like god 's gift one day , and then the next day some poor , misunderstood vet , and i actually almost bought it . i wanted to believe that underneath all that attitude was a decent guy worth getting to know , and then you go and pull something like this ? why ? do you want me to hate you , because it 's actually working . [ scene_break ] kate : who called you as a witness ? carly : no one -- i volunteered . elizabeth : you ca n't do that . carly : i do n't care . after what sam did to jason , he needs someone in that courtroom who cares and loves him . [ elizabeth snickers ] kate : well , and that person would be you ? carly : yes , it is . elizabeth : well , there 's nothing you can do . carly : yeah , you would think that . you would , because you 're passive . you never put yourself on the line for jason , even though he 's done it for you a thousand times . jason and i are different . he needs me , and i 'm here . elizabeth : yeah , well , that 's real smart , carly . scheme your way into a courtroom -- that 's going to help . kate : you ca n't just waltz up to the stand claiming you 're a witness . you have to be on the guard 's list . [ door opens ] officer : ma'am , i 'm going to need to see a copy of your subpoena . [ scene_break ] diane : the district attorney is trying to imply guilt by inundating this jury with images of my client firing a gun . he 's insulting their intelligence and wasting this court 's time . we have all seen the so - called evidence . can we please move on ? ric : what the jury saw , ms. miller , was a terrifying blur -- things were happening so fast that there was n't time to react . the reason for showing the tape in slow - motion was to see how mr. morgan reacted , and that is with the precision of a cold - blooded killer . diane : objection . your honor , my client was obviously acting in self - defense , and the district attorney is well aware that no charges have been brought to indicate otherwise . as i have pointed out to this court , my client was in police custody , handcuffed and shackled at the time that this attempt was made on his life . ric : the tape speaks to the ability of the defendant to carry out the crime that he is on trial for , your honor . judge : i 'll allow it . [ gunfire ] [ gunfire ] ric : that 's the last image lorenzo alcazar can remember -- jason morgan firing a gun . diane : objection ! judge : sustained . strike that from the record . mr. lansing , you know better than to address the jury . ric : your honor , the state calls to the stand mrs. elizabeth spencer . [ scene_break ] logan : i ai n't the one working you here . lulu : right -- coop is . logan : why do you think he keeps feeding you all that garbage about how dangerous i am ? lulu : maybe because coop 's a decent guy who does n't want to see me get hurt . logan : are you really that blind ? all right , coop likes you , okay ? he saw us getting close and he did n't like it , so he tried to scare you off . why do you think he keeps telling you about this supposed -- horrible thing i did over in iraq ? lulu : well , judging how you just attacked coop , i would say it was more than something you `` supposedly did . `` logan : you know what ? i was not going to stand there and let the guy trash me . you 're the one good thing that i 've got -- lulu : oh , god , save the act . i do n't believe a word you say . logan : because of coop ? lulu , the guy just wants you all to himself . lulu : oh , great -- let 's settle this once and for all . logan thinks that you have a thing for me -- is that true ? coop : i 'm with maxie . lulu : i told you . logan : okay , do you honestly expect him to admit his feelings for you when his girlfriend 's standing right behind him , hmm ? coop : we need to talk -- alone . [ scene_break ] judge : i think we 've all seen enough for one day . court resumes at 10 : 00 tomorrow . the jury is dismissed until then . bailiff : all rise . court is now adjourned . mayor floyd : so far , so good . ric : trust me ; it only gets better from here . mayor floyd : you were right about the ambush tape -- after the jurors saw it , they were looking at morgan like he belongs in a cage . ric : he does . mayor floyd : well , do n't get overconfident . and you might want to rethink calling lucky spencer 's wife as a witness . she used to be your wife , too , did n't she ? ric : you know she was . mayor floyd : then why muddy the waters by risking a conflict - of - interest allegation ? ric : elizabeth is going to give me what i need to convict jason . [ scene_break ] diane : do you have to be so good at your job ? ric did a lot of damage with that footage . he wanted to paint you as a cold - blooded killer , and your actions on that tape just proved his point . jason : what was i supposed to do , let them kill me ? diane : no , of course not , jason . look , i can argue that you were acting in self - defense till i am blue in the face , but it is not going to erase what that jury just saw . and they saw you -- not scared . they saw you calm and focused and lethal . and it just validates the d.a . 's allegation that you are a professional killer . [ diane sighs ] jason : what are my chances ? diane : yeah , well , considering the evidence that lansing has in reserve , i 'd say we need all the help we can get . [ scene_break ] carly : it 's in here somewhere . officer : hmm . ma'am , you ca n't be in the witness room without a subpoena . until you find it , you 're going to have to wait in the hall . second officer : court 's been adjourned for the day . the witnesses can go home . kate : oh , it 's about time . officer : all of you need to report back first thing in the morning . bring your subpoena , or you wo n't be allowed in . carly : not a problem . kate : if you say so . [ scene_break ] carly : just a peek . let me in for five minutes . how 'd it go ? diane : ahem . ric lansing had a strong case before this trial even started . the footage that he just played of jason shooting those three men who ambushed him outside the pcpd just improved it . carly : so it 's bad ? diane : to be honest with you , as an attorney , i can not imagine being in a worse position . and i just tried to tell jason that , and he showed very little reaction . carly : jason needs me . diane : i 'm sorry , carly , but that 's impossible . carly : you -- diane : the judge has closed the trial to the public . carly : can you call me as a witness ? that 's the only way to get me in that courtroom . [ scene_break ] officer : you 're free to go , ma'am . court 's adjourned until tomorrow . elizabeth : i know . i just needed some time alone , it helps me think . [ scene_break ] spinelli : ah -- lucky : the desk sergeant said you wanted to speak to a detective ? spinelli : yes . um , i have information on the murder of lorenzo alcazar . lucky : okay , let 's hear it . spinelli : stone cold did n't do it . lucky : can you back that up ? spinelli : well , as a former employee , i can attest that evil al is a -- a denizen of darkness with legions of evildoers who would 've been happy to pull the trigger . lucky : okay , can you provide jason with an alibi during the time of the murder ? spinelli : well , i -- i was n't with stone cold at that exact moment , but that does n't mean -- lucky : unless you can provide jason with an alibi during the time of the murder , there 's nothing else you can do . spinelli : look , stone cold does n't deserve to be locked up for life . lucky : jason has got the best lawyer money can buy . spinelli : yeah , and -- and few that he can trust to stand up for him in court . i mean , even fair samantha turned her back on him . the jackal will not rest until stone cold has secured his freedom . lucky : do you want to help jason ? spinelli : more than anything . lucky : yeah ? then let his lawyer do their job and stay out of it . you ca n't even be involved in this . spinelli : what is wrong with you ? why wo n't you help the guy that gave you your son ? [ scene_break ] coop : what is wrong with you , saying all that stuff about me and lulu , while maxie 's standing right there ? logan : i 'm just returning the favor , pal . you want me to lay off , stop trying to scare lulu away from me . coop : i told you to leave lulu alone . logan : who the hell are you to tell me to do anything ? coop : somebody who does n't want to see lulu get hurt . logan : hey , i would never hurt her . coop : yeah , that 's what you say now , and then something happens and you lose it . all right , i know what you 're capable of , logan . i saw you in iraq . logan : listen to me , okay ? that has nothing to do with this . coop : sure it does , if only because you 're still mad at yourself . all right , do n't take it out on lulu spencer . logan : i would never do anything to that girl . i care a lot about her . she 's one of the first people i found that i can actually be myself around . coop : if you really cared about her , you 'd tell her what happened over there . let her decide if she still wants to be with you . [ scene_break ] jerry : well , well , well . i was n't expecting to see you in port charles . man : this meeting is n't about what you expect . it 's about what i need you to deliver . [ scene_break ] diane : carly , i 'm sorry , but there is no way i am going to call you as a witness . carly : you have got to counteract sam 's testimony . i know jason better than anyone . i should be on that stand telling the jury what kind of person he is . diane : look , i appreciate you wanting to help a friend , but your testimony could do much more harm than good . carly : we go beyond friends , okay ? i do n't know how to explain it to you , but i 'm connected to jason in ways i 've never been to anyone else . that 's how i know right now he needs me . diane : jason is handling this remarkably well . he 's not angry , he 's not frustrated . on the contrary , he seems to -- carly : he 's shutting down inside , okay ? he 's trying to make himself feel dead inside so he can deal with being locked up . do n't tell me that you are buying into ric 's crap that he 's feeding the jury ? jason feels things deeper than anyone i know , okay ? he 's just not showing it , and right now he 's feeling alone . he needs someone who loves him and believes in him . i 'm asking you to let it be me . [ scene_break ] lucky : i will always be grateful to jason that he brought jake back home . spinelli : no offense , dude , but you have a seriously messed - up way of showing it . i mean , the guy saved your son , okay , and -- and your thanks is to haul him away in handcuffs ? lucky : okay , i arrested jason because it was my duty . spinelli : the d.a . of darkness has an agenda , okay ? with stone cold out of the way , mr. corinthos , sir is that much more vulnerable . lucky : okay , the bottom line is that jason broke the law . there 's nothing you or i can do about it . spinelli : i worked for evil al , and then he tried to kill me -- the dude is seriously lethal . i hated him , i `` hated `` him , and you did n't investigate me -- nor the other legions of evildoers that would want to kill him , as well -- like covert - ops type people that can order his termination from the luxury of their yacht . lucky : okay , if the jury finds jason guilty , you ca n't do anything to change it ! spinelli : ah . stone cold ? i , the jackal , am here to testify on your behalf . lucky : i 'm going to let you try to explain to him why that 's a bad idea . [ door closes ] spinelli : look , dude , i -- i know this is hard for you , okay ? jason : i -- i 've been in lockup before . spinelli : no , no , no , no . i 'm talking about fair elizabeth 's spouse . i mean , the dude is walking around oblivious to the fact that he 's been entrusted with your most precious progeny . you know , perhaps lucky would be more keen to secure your freedom if he -- if he knew the truth . [ scene_break ] lulu : elizabeth ? what are you doing here ? elizabeth : i 'm just trying to figure some things out . lulu : how 's that going for you ? elizabeth : i 'm still working on it . what are you doing here in the courthouse ? lulu : um , i was looking for lucky -- i -- i need a favor . elizabeth : oh . well , is there something i can do for you ? lulu : huh -- not unless you can pull someone 's military record ? elizabeth : is this about that logan guy ? lulu : how do you know about logan ? elizabeth : nikolas came to the hospital . he had mentioned that logan was n't the type of guy you should be seeing . lulu : okay , i 'm not seeing logan . we had one date -- technically , half a date -- and that 's probably all that we 're ever going to have . so nikolas can just relax and mind his own business . elizabeth : well , he 's always going to worry about you , lulu . lulu : well , it 's not just nikolas . one of logan 's old army buddies came up to me and warned me about him , saying there was a lot i did n't know about him . elizabeth : hmm . well , i 'm sure lucky will be more than willing to help you . he probably could use a distraction right now . he 's so uptight . i mean , with the whole jake 's kidnapping , and then jason 's trial -- it 's really hard not to think about it , much less objectively . after everything that jason has done for us , i do n't know how i 'm going to get up on that stand and testify against him . lulu : it 's probably not going to be as bad as you think . i mean , i would n't worry about it . nothing 's going to come out in court . elizabeth : what do you mean ? [ scene_break ] ric : lucky , hey , just the man i wanted to see . lucky : why is that ? ric : well , i want to talk to you about elizabeth 's testimony . believe me ; if i did n't think i needed it to secure a conviction , i would 've never had her subpoenaed . lucky : i do n't see why putting elizabeth on the stand is going to help you win your case . ric : well , i would think that you , of all people , would understand what i 'm up against here . jason has subverted the law for years , and i want to change all of that . lucky : yeah , i just do n't want it to come at elizabeth 's expense . ric : i 'm not going to put elizabeth up on that stand and grill her . but the fact remains she is the last person that we know of to have seen jason before lorenzo alcazar was murdered . lucky : for five minutes when he stopped by her room at the hospital . ric : at which time he received a phone call -- presumably from sonny -- ordering the hit on alcazar . look , i need to question elizabeth in order to establish a chain of events for the jury . all she has to do is get up on the stand and tell the truth . believe me ; it 'll be over before elizabeth knows it . [ scene_break ] lulu : ric wants the jury to think that jason 's some kind of cold , heartless monster , right ? but the minute that you get on that stand , you 're going to blow that image apart . think about it -- how many times has jason saved your life , not to mention jake 's ? three ? more ? he 's not going to give you the chance to make jason look like some kind of hero in front of the jury , so , you know , if anything , he 'll probably have you up there long enough to answer one , maybe two questions . elizabeth : yeah . yeah , ric -- he did say that my testimony was going to be used mainly to establish that jason was in my hospital room when he got the phone call , so maybe you 're right . and ric knows how i feel about jason , so why -- why keep me on the stand any longer than he has to ? i 'm just going to get up there , confirm that jason got the phone call , and -- yeah , it 'll all be over . [ scene_break ] spinelli : i -- i know you gave up baby jake martin in respect to fair elizabeth 's wishes , but do n't -- do n't you think it would be better for everyone if the truth came out now rather than later ? jason : the longer this trial goes on , the more i know i can never -- i can never claim jake . spinelli : why does the jackal get the feeling you 're giving up ? jason : things did n't go really well today . spinelli : that 's why you 're determined on keeping the secret , right ? you think you 're going to be convicted , and you do n't want baby jake to know that his father 's incarcerated . jason : i do n't want jake to hear his father described the way i was in the courtroom today , or grow up feeling ashamed or afraid of me . spinelli : oh -- baby jake would be proud to have you as a father . and , yes , some of your -- some of the aspects of your chosen career path are a bit dangerous , but , i mean , you would never do anything to put the small stone cold one -- jason : i do n't want my son to get caught in the crossfire the next time somebody decides to try and take me out , okay ? [ scene_break ] marty : oh , good . look , we 've got a problem . the charity guild just called to verify the -- carly : who 's that guy ? marty : the man with mr. jacks ' brother ? carly : is he a guest here in the hotel ? marty : not that i 'm aware of . why ? carly : has he been talking to him long ? marty : just a couple of minutes , if you want me to call security -- - carly : where 's my husband ? carly : tell me where i can find jax . i need to know that my husband is all right . jerry : i can assure you that things will be handled in exactly the same way that we discussed . if you 'll excuse us -- carly : do you know who i am ? i 'm carly corinthos -- does that name ring a bell ? because if anything happens to jax , you 're going to pay . do you understand -- you are going to pay . jerry : yes , yes , yes , that 's right , darling . why do n't come with me here ? yes . do you know what ? it would be a shame if jax came back from his little trip to find that his blushing bride was prematurely `` dead . `` carly : i 'm not afraid of that man . jerry : a bit of advice -- know who you 're dealing with before you start making threats . carly : well , how am i supposed to do that , because you wo n't tell me anything , and you will not bring my husband home ! jerry : and you running your mouth wo n't bring him back any sooner , nor will it make you safe . i mean , i 'm amazed that you have managed to live so long -- you 're nuts ! carly : who is that man ? jerry : no one you need to know about . understood ? good . [ scene_break ] irina : sorry to keep you waiting . i had to go on deck to discuss a change of course with the captain -- it 's imperative for us to stay on the move . i would n't want anyone to interfere with our operations or my plans for you . jax : so how do you know my brother ? irina : there was a time when -- jerry and i were as close as two people can be . i 've heard a lot about you , jax . needless to say , i was thrilled to discover that jerry arranged for you to show up in this part of the world . jax : so jerry does n't know that i 'm here ? irina : you thought he might somehow be involved in all this ? that speaks volumes about your relationship . jax : look , whatever you 've got planned for me , i can double your profits -- as soon as you let me go irina : as i said , i 'm not interested in money . jax : everybody 's interested in money . irina : not only money , then . irina : you know , you 're far better looking than your brother , and you have more stamina than i would ever imagine . but then again , so did jerry . i wonder -- are you better in bed than your brother was ? jax : well , that 's something only you can judge . [ scene_break ] [ phone rings ] jerry : yes ? what happened ? god ! agh ! find him ! no matter what you do , make sure my brother is alive and safe , you idiot ! idiot ! [ scene_break ] spinelli : yeah , you -- you want the innocent one to be safe , of -- of course . but , you know , what if there 's a way that you could be a part of your son 's life and not put him in peril ? jason : there 's not . spinelli : okay , remaining a trusted family friend , right ? i mean , you could -- you could be there to -- to witness your progeny 's milestones , and i 'm sure that the blond one would happily assist you . i mean , she is baby jake 's aunt and also privy to the truth -- jason : no , i want you to leave lulu out of this , spinelli . spinelli : no , i think she would want you to participate , to be there to support jake 's choices -- good and bad -- and also , you know , impart pearls of stone cold wisdom along -- along the way . come on , is n't it better to have some part in your son 's life rather than none at all ? jason : you officer : time 's up . the d.a . needs to speak with the prisoner . ric : if you 'll excuse us , mr. spinelli , mr. morgan and i have some business to discuss . spinelli : you know , you will be consumed by darkness in the end . i mean , you are already an orc and soon - to - be gollum -- or much worse . ric : get out of here . ric : today was just a little taste of what i got in store for you . you cooperate , or tomorrow when elizabeth gets on that stand to testify , she 's going to have to admit some rather unhappy truths . [ scene_break ] jerry : what did i tell you ? i told you to keep an eye on my brother . i told you to follow jax and make sure he was safe . was that so hard to do ? now you tell me that you 've lost him , and this is the first time i hear about i if i do not find my brother very soon , you will wish that you had never been born . do i make myself clear , you imbecile ? [ pounding on door ] jerry : yes ! [ pounding ] jerry : what ? carly : this is my hotel . my hotel , which means i get to know who 's doing business here . what happened ? jerry : what do you think happened -- the lamp broke . carly : i can see the lamp broke . what 's going on here ? is this about jax ? jerry : no , actually , it 's about your precious little jason . carly : did you find a way to help him ? jerry : that 's what you wanted , is n't it -- the price of your friendship ? i mean , it would be a lot easier if you did n't have these angry outbursts and ill - timed interruptions such as now . carly : i want you to help jason , but i need to know if jax is okay . jerry : he 's fine . there is nothing to worry about my brother . i promise . [ scene_break ] irina : if you 're half as good as your brother is in bed , this could turn out to be an enjoyable afternoon . jax : well , unfortunately , we 'll never know . irina : why is that ? jax : because i 'm a happily married man who does n't cheat on his wife . irina : it 's only cheating if you get caught . jax : thanks for the offer , but i 'll have to pass . irina : how can such a decent , loyal man like you be related to such an uncaring bastard like jerry ? jax : i take it things did n't end too well between you and my brother , huh ? irina : you might say that . jax : and that 's why i 'm here , is n't it , because you 're still holding a grudge ? irina : very perceptive . irina : i 'm going to enjoy having you here -- at least until your brother arrives . then we 'll have to get down to business . jax : yeah . and what is that , exactly ? irina : i 'm going to kill you while jerry watches . [ scene_break ] maxie : coop -- please wait , i need to talk to you . coop : what ? maxie : i 'm sorry about how i flipped out in your room before . lulu just drives me crazy sometimes -- okay , all the time -- and when i saw her with you , i just lost it . look , i do n't know what it is about lulu that sucks guys in , but i do n't want that to happen with you . just promise me you 're not going to fall for lulu . coop : do n't you have any faith in me at all ? i am with you because i care about you , maxie . now , if that changed for any reason , i would tell you . maxie : i know -- i know that -- at least , i thought i did . coop : well , you trust me or you do n't . maxie : of course i trust you . it 's just sometimes i do n't trust myself . [ scene_break ] spinelli : oh -- oh , blond one -- lulu : whoa . spinelli : um , okay , so stone cold and , um -- lulu : okay -- whoa , whoa , slow down , breathe . what -- what 's wrong ? spinelli : um -- i -- okay , i -- i went to the station to testify on stone cold 's behalf , and i overheard the d.a . of darkness making threats against the mother of the innocent one . lulu : what kind of threats ? spinelli : well , that if stone cold does n't cooperate , ric will barbecue fair elizabeth on the witness stand . and -- and the jackal 's a - feared that if -- she may crack under the pressure and reveal the truth about jake 's paternity . lulu : okay , okay , okay -- logan : lulu , i need to speak with you for a second . spinelli : dude , this is not a good time -- logan : shut up , `` dude . `` seriously , i came here to talk to lulu . lulu : spinelli and i are in the middle of something , i really ca n't deal with you right now . logan : listen -- listen , the dork is going to have to wait , this is very important . lulu : what part of `` get lost `` do n't you understand ? [ lulu sighs ] spinelli : okay , um , stone cold -- stone cold gave up baby jake for his safety . if -- if the truth comes out -- lulu : i know , this is a disaster -- lucky ca n't find out in the middle of the courtroom that jason is jake 's real father . [ scene_break ] lucky : elizabeth , are you all right ? elizabeth : oh , yeah . yeah , i 'm just sitting here thinking . lucky : about what ? [ elizabeth sighs ] elizabeth : about my testimony . lucky : i -- i ran into ric earlier . elizabeth : well , did he tell you why he 's calling me as a witness when i do n't know a thing about alcazar 's murder ? lucky : he said that if you testify that jason got a call right before alcazar got killed , that he will try to convince the jury that it was most likely sonny who ordered the hit . elizabeth : i do n't know who was on the phone . jason picked up , he hung up , told me had to go , that was it . that 's all i know . lucky : okay , then you tell him that , then you get out of it . jason 's fate is in the jury 's hands , not yours . [ scene_break ] ric : this is a one - time deal . if you plead out to second - degree murder , you can end this right now . you 'll serve 20 years without parole , but you will save elizabeth the pain of having to testify against you . so i guess you got to ask yourself a question . what 's more important to you -- your freedom , or elizabeth 's peace of mind ? now , you think about that , jason . because if i get elizabeth up on that stand , i am going to ask her about the nature of her relationship with you . and since she 's already been sworn in under oath , she 's going to have to admit that the two of you were lovers , and while i 'm there , i might as well go all the way and ask if little jacob martin -- interesting choice in initials , by the way . i will have to ask elizabeth under oath if little jacob martin spencer is really your son . [ next_on ] jax : you 're going to kill me ? irina : but not until your brother arrives . jerry : i 'm glad you showed up , because i need your assistance . kate : i did n't realize you had been called to testify . sam : i am going to wreck elizabeth 's life . bailiff : do you swear to tell the truth , the whole truth , and nothing but the truthSummarize.[/INST]carly , kate , and elizabeth all wind up in the witness waiting room together until the guard asks to see carly 's subpoena , which she does not have because it does not exist , and then tells them that the judge has dismissed the witnesses for the day . after playing the damaging video of jason firing in self defense , very professionally , twice , ric wants to show it a third time , prompting strenuous objections from diane . logan tries to get back into lulu 's good graces and tells her that cooper has a thing for her , which coop denies . in russia , a woman questions a chained jax and reveals she plans to kill him in front of jerry . jerry 's mood turns ugly when he discovers that jax has vanished . spinelli panics when he overhears ric threatening to grill elizabeth on the witness stand if jason does not cooperate . the deal ric offers is second degree murder , for which jason will serve twenty years without parole . otherwise , the truth about jake will come out on the stand .</s> | 11,144 |
