[ scene_break ] paul : you really want your baby back , do yourself a favor and move as soon as you can . gwen : you think i do n't want to move ? it 's just that anything worth moving to is so damned expensive . paul : yeah , well , we can talk about that later . all things are negotiable . gwen : so , you really think carly messed with those test results ? paul : are you telling the truth about casey being the only guy you 've ever been with ? gwen : yeah , i 'm telling the truth . paul : well , then carly seems like the only explanation to me . and once she gets her mind on something , forget it . she wo n't let anything stand in her way . gwen : well , she 's not getting my kid , so what do i do ? paul : well , for one , you can get your act together , and your story . you 've changed things so many times , it 's no wonder nobody believes you . gwen : i was just trying to protect people -- paul : it does n't matter what you were trying to do . you 're the girl who cried wolf , and now nobody wants to hear what you have to say . so , you need to pull yourself together and start acting smart . otherwise , you can kiss this baby good - bye .

[ scene_break ] emily : hey , paul , it 's me . listen , i got ta leave here in a while , and i just wanted to tell you that my mother was here a little while ago . she almost saw the footprints . do n't worry , i got 'em out of the way before she could see them , but to save us both from a future heart attack , i want to lock 'em up in the wall safe , if that 's okay with you . that 's it . i do n't know , if you get this message , call me on my cell , or i 'll just see you at home . i just said `` home . `` i like the sound of that . okay , got ta go . bye . okay , right . 90 . okay .

[ scene_break ] paul : you really want your baby back , do yourself a favor and move as soon as you can . gwen : you think i do n't want to move ? it 's just that anything worth moving to is so damned expensive . paul : yeah , well , we can talk about that later . all things are negotiable . gwen : so , you really think carly messed with those test results ? paul : are you telling the truth about casey being the only guy you 've ever been with ? gwen : yeah , i 'm telling the truth . paul : well , then carly seems like the only explanation to me . and once she gets her mind on something , forget it . she wo n't let anything stand in her way . gwen : well , she 's not getting my kid , so what do i do ? paul : well , for one , you can get your act together , and your story . you 've changed things so many times , it 's no wonder nobody believes you . gwen : i was just trying to protect people -- paul : it does n't matter what you were trying to do . you 're the girl who cried wolf , and now nobody wants to hear what you have to say . so , you need to pull yourself together and start acting smart . otherwise , you can kiss this baby good - bye . [ scene_break ] henry : so ? katie : so , the florist has no record of who sent the flowers . they paid cash . it was a really busy time in the store . they do n't even remember if it was a man or a woman who bought them . maddie : oh , how odd . henry : it 's odd , indeed . it 's not your birthday . it 's not any kind of special occasion that i can think of . can you think of one ? katie : no . henry : no ? what does the card say again ? katie : `` katie , how could i ever forget you ? `` henry : huh . it sounds like he 's responding to a question . have you reached out to anyone from your past lately ? asked if they remembered you ? katie : no , no one . maddie : so it sounds like henry was right with that whole secret admirer thing . katie : you think ? how weird . henry : yeah , it 's a little scary , too , katie . i mean , it could be a stalker . maddie : no way . stalkers do n't send flowers . this is n't scary , it 's mysterious . it 's romantic . katie : hey , you over there . you seem kind of quiet . you have any ideas ? mike : yeah , i think i know exactly who sent you those flowers . all : who ? mike : simon .

[ scene_break ] emily : hey , paul , it 's me . listen , i got ta leave here in a while , and i just wanted to tell you that my mother was here a little while ago . she almost saw the footprints . do n't worry , i got 'em out of the way before she could see them , but to save us both from a future heart attack , i want to lock 'em up in the wall safe , if that 's okay with you . that 's it . i do n't know , if you get this message , call me on my cell , or i 'll just see you at home . i just said `` home . `` i like the sound of that . okay , got ta go . bye . okay , right . 90 . okay .

[ scene_break ] ryan : well , who knew that kendall would be pine valley 's favorite resident ? greenlee : oh , what 's that supposed to mean ? ryan : oh , nothing -- nothing bad , just that between zach , j.r. , and you that she obviously made a lot of loyal fans while i was gone , and here she is trying to save us . greenlee : `` us `` ? for the past few months , `` us `` has been kendall and me . kendall was by my side , grieving with me , holding me , helping me to pick up the pieces , and she did n't do it to gain respect or praise or even to feel better about herself . she did it to make me feel whole again . ryan : well , i obviously owe kendall a huge debt , and i am so grateful that you had her to get you through what i did to you . greenlee : is n't it ironic ? the one person who saw just how ugly it was is the one person who thinks you 're the answer to my happiness . kendall actually believes love conquers all . that 's why she went to see you in the hospital , and it 's how she convinced me to talk to you again . ryan : well , i hope she 's right , because no matter how angry you are at me right now , i believe in our love more than i ever have . ryan : so that 's what you wanted to tell me , how amazing kendall has been . i 'm very glad that you did . greenlee : kendall told me you said you would have come back even if our child had a chance to be born . did she make that up for my sake , or did you make that up for your own ? would you really still be here if we could have a child , ryan ? tell me that and then i 'll decide if i have anything left to say to you .

[ scene_break ] kendall : you ca n't seriously think that i would end this pregnancy . erica : no , of course i do n't think that . of course not . i know you want this baby . but just because this baby is planned for and already loved does n't mean that you have to stay in pine valley for the next eight months and watch while its mommy and daddy battle it out . greenlee can come and retrieve the baby when the baby arrives . but you have got to get away in the meantime from all of this chaos . you 've got to emotionally detach yourself from this situation . honey , you are caught in the crossfire . kendall : well , it 's the best place to be if i 'm going to help ryan and greenlee find their way back to each other . erica : oh , come on . oh , do n't tell me now that you also want to position yourself as the matchmaker . kendall : you have any better options ? what , are you and jack going to work your magic on the unhappy couple ? yeah -- i did n't think so . erica : listen to me . if greenlee is half the friend you think she is , she will agree with me . you should go to paris . kendall : oh , you know what ? i do n't care how many people try to throw me on a plane -- i 'm not going anywhere . this whole big , stupid mess is going to have a happy ending , damn it . erica : will it , really ? so what do you think -- christmas , 2006 , you 'll get a card in the mail from the laverys ? a happy family photo -- ryan , greenlee , the baby , and kendall ? honey , i do n't see you in this happy family portrait anywhere . where are you , kendall ? where are you ? kendall : christmas , 2006 , i will send a card of my own -- me in st. bart 's sipping from a coconut , as far away from screaming kids and poopy diapers as i can get . erica : and you think it 's going to be just that easy ? going to be easy for you to just walk away from the baby you carried ? nurtured ? bonded with for nine months of your life ? and greenlee 's going to have the world at her feet -- a loving husband , a beautiful new baby . and you , kendall ? kendall : it 's not like ryan and greenlee are going to cut me off after i have the child . i 'm going to be his or her godmother . i 'll be in his little life . erica : and do you think that that 's going to be easy ? or normal ? or stress free ? and when do you think you 're going to tell little him or her that at one time you would have just cat - clawed mommy into ribbons to get daddy back in your life for yourself ? kendall : oh , i was thinking about saving that one for his 21st birthday , you know , over a couple beers right before i take him to his first strip joint . come on , mom , how many times are we going to go through this ? we went through this when i first told you i was pregnant . do we really have to rehash it now ? erica : yes , we do , because everything 's changed now . ryan is back . and so this is n't just yours and greenlee 's baby . this baby is greenlee 's and yours and the man you once adored . kendall : oh , god -- first , you think i 'm in love with greenlee , now you think i 'm going to fall back in love with ryan ? erica : yeah , i know you will . do n't tell me that you 're in love with your so- called husband , zach slater .

[ scene_break ] jax : well , you know , i 've also seen how you operate and you can be very destructive . carly : so can you . jax : right , so we should just do the smart thing here and just stay away from each other . carly : yeah , we could do that . jax : yeah . carly : yeah . jax : that 's good . carly : or we could look at the big picture . jax : which is ? carly : how much fun we could have . jax : yeah . hmm . i just -- carly : but you 're not quite sure what to think about me . so i guess this wo n't be going any further . [ scene_break ] sonny : hey . like i told you , i 'm not going to give you up . emily : and whatever we face , we 'll face it together . it 'll take time , but jason loves us both and i have to believe that he 's going to find a way to accept this . sonny : well , i 'm not so sure about that . emily : ok . then i 'll go . sonny : what -- whoa . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] alexis : i 'm here to apologize . ric overreacted . it was very hypocritical of him to condone anything unfortunate happening to manny . sam : got it -- you 're scared . bye . alexis : sam , something else we need to address and i think that we should do just that . i know that you blame me for what happened to your brother and i know that you blame me for what happened to your baby . sam : oh , i do n't really think you want to get into this right now , alexis . alexis : and i realize that you and i are never going to be friends . however , we do live in the same town . we are going to run into each other from time to time , and i 'm hoping that we might manage to be civil in public . sam : what do you want from me , alexis ? alexis : peace . law school , huh ? sam : it 's just a thought . alexis : i think it 's a great idea . it 's a lofty goal . it 's very ambitious of you . i can tell you , it 's an arduous process . sam : what , are you suggesting that i 'm not smart enough ? alexis : no . i -- sam : well , i would just like you to know that it 's actually in my genes . my mother happened to be a brilliant woman , not to mention a selfish , patronizing bitch . alexis : you know , you had a very good point earlier . it was a mistake to come here . sam : no , you know what ? you wanted in and now you 're in and now you 're not leaving until i 've had my say . [ scene_break ] noah : you think that 'll stop me ? i can have a bottle of vodka in my hand within 10 minutes . patrick : you would n't do that . noah : oh , you think not ? patrick : you just want me to believe that you hate yourself so much you would deliberately trash your life again , but what i do n't understand is why . noah : because i want you to stop helping me . patrick : i am trying to save your life . noah : i did n't ask you to ! i want my name off the donor list ! if it 's on there and a liver becomes available , i will refuse it , so stop making everybody crazy ! and do what i ask ! robin : noah , that is the most selfish , ungrateful thing i have ever heard a father say to his son . noah : you have no idea . patrick does n't have any altruistic motives here . he wants me alive for himself . he thinks if he appoints himself the liver police , it 'll make up for all the years he spent rejecting me . patrick : are you out of your mind ? noah : you know it 's true ! robin : you need to get a grip , noah . your son is trying to give you a second chance , not just with him but at life . do not throw his generosity , deserved or not , back in his face or you will regret it , i promise . [ scene_break ] maxie : you seem strangely comfortable . do you often frequent rooftops ? nikolas : no . but this one is kind of special . you could say it 's where courtney and i got started . maxie : please tell me it was n't raining . nikolas : it was , actually . maxie : rooftops and rain -- does n't get more romantic than that . so how are you doing ? nikolas : not so good , maxie . i showed up in nicu angry and belligerent , demanding to see courtney 's baby . dr. drake would 've called security and had me thrown out if elizabeth and lucky did n't defuse the situation . maxie : so you were stupid . big deal , join the club . nikolas : well , jax found out . maxie : oh . i guess he was n't too happy about that . nikolas : ahem -- or maybe he was . i mean , i just handed him additional incentive to keep me out of john 's life . that baby is all i have left of courtney . and he just makes me feel connected to her . it just does . [ scene_break ] carly : what 's wrong ? jax : you know what ? i finally figured out why you 're suddenly so enamored of me . carly : i 'm not following you . jax : it 's not me that you find irresistible . it 's my son . [ scene_break ] emily : you 'd better go see what 's up . sonny : ok , i 'll call you later . emily : ok . sonny : all right , bye . emily : bye . jason : what happened ? are you ok ? max : morgan keeps leaving his stuff on the stairs . i 'm trying to teach him not to , but apparently i 'm not having much of an effect . [ jason sighs ] sonny : what the hell is going on ? max : oh , i fell down the stairs . hope the noise did n't disturb you at all . jason : i figured something out , and we need to talk about it . [ scene_break ] sam : i am not the person you should come to when you 're trying to sell your noble , misunderstood mother routine because i understand you perfectly . you are consumed by yourself and it is that complete and utter self - involvement that made it so easy for you to put my baby at risk and -- alexis : all right . sam : let my brother die . alexis : that 's enough . excuse me , [ scene_break ] robin : all right , we get it . you do n't want to live , so what 's the plan -- go face - down in a bar somewhere ? or something more dramatic like a leap off a roof . or better yet , what would cause patrick more pain , since that 's what you seem to be all about . noah : you could n't possibly understand . robin : you 're right , i do n't . patrick : you know what , robin ? do n't even bother . noah : you know , that was actually pretty -- some fiery defense you leapt to there , but that 's the point , is n't it ? you do n't really care about whether i get a liver or not . it 's all about making appearances in front of her . patrick : yeah , right . i ca n't slip anything past you , can i ? noah : yeah , well , hear me -- give it up . patrick : you hear me -- stop being a moron . [ scene_break ] maxie : how are you with brutal honesty ? nikolas : i can take it . maxie : good , because i do n't have an internal editor . i think jax has a right to be concerned . i mean , john 's his kid . it 's on jax to protect that little boy . and since he is the only parent , he has to be twice as vigilant . and you acted like an ass . the fact that courtney loved you does n't justify your behavior , not from where jax is standing . i mean , all he thinks is that you 're hostile , out of control , and a potential danger to his son . nikolas : i tried to make peace . he was n't receptive . maxie : maybe he would be if it came from another source . what jax needs to do is trust you again . everything you do is suspect . what you need is for someone who knows you to convince jax that all you want is what 's best for that baby . nikolas : how did someone so young get to be so smart ? maxie : i 'm kind of an old soul . besides , i 'm pretty good at fixing other people 's problems . it 's my life i seem to have an issue with . nikolas : well , you handled it just right . i appreciate your ear and will take your advice . i think i know just the person who will help me . [ scene_break ] jax : i 'm -- i 'm sorry . you know what ? that did n't come out right . carly : no , i know exactly what you meant . you think i 'm working you ? this is some big scheme so i can take your son away from you ? is that really what you think about me ? jax : you know what , carly ? honestly , i do n't know what -- i do n't know what to think . carly : wow , i am just amazed at what a sucker i can be . you know , i was starting to think for one second that you liked me and that you were starting to trust me . who knew you were such a great actor ? thanks for flubbing your lines before i made a huge mistake . jax : oh . no -- [ jax sighs ] [ glass shatters ] jax : oh . alexis , it 's jax . will you call me as soon as you get this ? i need you to handle a situation with carly . [ scene_break ] alexis : i am done being the place where you dump your anger . and i am done feeling guilty for the alleged wrongs that i committed against you . sam : not `` alleged `` -- fact . alexis : no . the one thing , the only thing that i did was lose it with you in the hospital chapel when i thought my daughter 's life was on the line . i was desperate . you were my only hope and i said things to you without thinking , and for that , i apologize profusely to you as i have done a thousand times already . the only valid accusation that you have made of me , sam , is that i put my daughter 's well - being above everything else -- that 's it . i am done apologizing to you for anything else . sam : nice . that conveniently glosses over the fact that you 're responsible for my brother 's death . alexis : dr. patrick drake made the decision to give me the antidote . he did that because i have two children who are dependent on me . sam : of course , of course ! it always comes back to your sainted motherhood , does n't it ? alexis : is there ever going to be a moment where you might show me a modicum of respect ? i am certain that you are going to have children someday , sam , and you 're going to know what it 's like to put their welfare in front of yours , and i ca n't wait personally for that moment , because maybe then you will show me a little understanding and a bit of forgiveness . [ scene_break ] jason : you did n't return any of my calls sonny : yeah , well -- jason : when you were gone . sonny : i was just busy , you know ? what 's the problem ? jason : well , it started with max . sonny : what , you 've been talking to max ? jason : well , he -- he 's been tailing carly for me and she 's making his life hell , by the way . sonny : you 're surprised ? i mean , you know , why is max on carly anyway ? jason : well , because michael called when you were away . sonny : right . jason : he wanted to talk to you about jax and carly . sonny : what about them ? jason : they went out on a date . you were unreachable , so max brought it to me . sonny : well , they have been spending a lot of time at the hospital , taking care of courtney 's baby . they just probably went out to dinner . it 's no big deal . jason : i just -- you know , i think it 's more . sonny : you 're kidding me , right ? carly -- first of all , carly does n't even like jax that much . she knows that he 's not on our side . she 's just probably doing this just to get my attention . jason : ok , sonny , that 's what i thought , but i actually think that she might be falling for jax . sonny : jason , never happen . jason : ok , just in case -- sonny : right . jason : i told max to make sure it did n't , but he trailed them to a room at the metro court . sonny : wait , wait , wait , wait , wait , wait , wait . they got a room ? did they -- jason : i do n't know what they did , because carly saw max . sonny : you know max is going to want a raise for this . you know how he is . jason : well , he should get a raise . sonny : ok , jax and carly -- that 's not good . i assume you know that . jason : you got to ask me that ? sonny : well , why did you put max on surveillance ? you know he has no experience with carly . why did n't you take her yourself ? jason : i had something else to deal with . sonny : must 've been important . jason : you might want to sit down for this . [ scene_break ] noah : i guess you heard everything , huh ? bobbie : every ghastly word . what clicks on inside your head that allows you to be so cruel to your son ? noah , you are not like that . you are a kind , loving , gentle man and i know you love patrick , so i do n't understand why you 're intentionally being so nasty . noah : i 'm dying bobbie . `` here lies the once promising dr. noah drake who drank himself to death . `` that was my choice , i chose that . that 's my burden , not patrick 's . bobbie : i do n't understand why you are so accepting of your own death . noah : then you 're not listening . i brought this on myself . i 'm not going to stand in line and wait for a liver transplant and snatch it from somebody who i think is more deserving . bobbie : `` somebody who 's more deserving , `` i know , i know , i know , and i 've heard that before , but it does n't make any sense to me . noah , what constitutes deserving ? noah : someone who did n't give himself a liver disease . bobbie : patrick is willing to step into that breach . why wo n't you let him ? noah : bobbie , you 're a nurse . you know that a partial liver transplant surgery involves certain risks to the donor . bobbie : low risks , less than 20 % . noah : yeah , well , i think that 's high . look , patrick 's -- patrick 's got a brilliant life ahead of him . why would i ask him to risk that for somebody who did n't think enough of their own life not to systematically destroy it ? bobbie : because he wants to . noah : yeah , well , i 'm not having that . bobbie : ok , then fine . but why not use the rest of the time that you have with your son to bring yourself closer to him instead of yelling at him and pushing him away ? noah : if i do n't get any closer to patrick , he wo n't miss me when i 'm gone . bobbie : oh , you know what ? everything that patrick just said to you is right . you are behaving like a moron . [ scene_break ] alexis : ah . i was just about to call you . carly : well , that ca n't be good . alexis : i had a conversation with jax -- very interesting . carly : wow , he moves fast . alexis : there is obviously something going on between you . i do n't want to know what it is -- really , i do n't -- but apparently , you 've done some sort of number on him . carly : it was mutual , so spill it . this is about little john , right ? he wants to change the arrangement ? alexis : yes , he does . carly : ok . what 's the new deal ? alexis : he wants to make you john 's legal guardian . carly : are you serious ? alexis : yeah . i 'm sure it was a momentary lapse and i 'm also certain that you will turn it down . carly : why would i do that ? alexis : because you 're a parent and you have parental instincts that allow you to act in a child 's best interest and it is n't in the child 's best interest for him to have a legal guardian that is directly or indirectly involved with the mob . and i 'm sure there are other fine choices , and i 'll be available to help jax with any legal assistance that he might need . carly : well , you know what , alexis ? i 'm touched , you know , i really am that you would be worrying about me , but it 's not a problem , really , because i 'm an all - around designated legal guardian . alexis : what does that mean ? carly : you do n't know ? alexis : no . carly : sonny named me kristina 's guardian if anything ever happened to him . it 's in his will . alexis : listen to me very carefully . i do n't care what 's in sonny 's will . hell will freeze over before you ever take charge of my daughter . [ scene_break ] jax : you know , i was really counting on that family -- you , me , your mom -- the way courtney and i dreamed about it . i wanted your mother to enjoy every stage of your life without fearing helena and what she 's capable of . that 's -- that 's why i switched your d.n.a . results -- to give you a better life . you know , i probably wo n't win any morality awards for what i 've done , but every day i 'm more convinced that i made the right choice , because nikolas is starting to behave like a true cassadine . you know , he 's just -- he 's unpredictable . that 's just not healthy for you . i mean , your life is about more than being a reminder of your mother . you 're a person , you know , not a touchstone for nikolas ' grief . but you do n't have to worry about that because i 'm going to take care of you . and i 'm going to love you . i give you my word . [ scene_break ] sonny : do me a favor , will you ? do n't tell me to sit down because it makes me nervous . just tell me what 's going on . sonny : yeah ? jason : ok , danny was delirious with fever . sonny : mm - hmm . jason : and -- and he kept saying things like , `` sam had been chosen -- `` sonny : mm - hmm . jason : `` as a child , `` that he was glad their parents made them brother and sister , it sounded to me like sam s adopted . so she got a d.n.a . test done on danny and she found out that they were not biologically related . sonny : wow . must 've been a shock , right ? jason : that was the first . so i -- i put stan on tracking sam 's birth certificate . did n't have any luck at all , but he did find the clinic where she was born , ok ? and then that led us to a private school in new hampshire where we found out there a 16-year - old girl dropped out for a semester . it timed out with when sam was born . sonny : ok . so that explains why you could n't , you know , do what you had to do with carly , right ? so ? who -- who 's sam 's mother ? jason : it 's alexis davis . sonny : if this is -- ok , seriously , if this is your idea of a joke , then your sense of humor has n't gotten better since the coma . jason : am i laughing ? sonny : no , you 're not laughing , but let me tell you something . it 's impossible . alexis is not sam 's mother , she is kristina 's mother . have stan go back -- jason : sonny -- sonny : redirect what he has to do . jason : sonny , do you think -- sonny : have him go 100 different directions . jason : do you think i would accept this without tracking every possible way ? you think i would bring this to you unless i was absolutely sure ? sonny : no -- but , you know , it just does n't seem -- jason : here . sonny : what is that ? jason : it 's all there , all of it . sonny : do you have any idea what this means ? i -- oh -- i slept with a mother and her daughter and got them both pregnant . that means that the -- the baby that sam was carrying , our child , is alexis ' granddaughter . what kind of creepy , freaky crap is this ? [ scene_break ] nikolas : oh , sorry , sam . sam : hey . nikolas : it 's good to see you . excuse me . sam : actually , you could join me for a minute . i would n't mind the company . it calms the chaos in my head . i could actually hear what i 'm thinking maybe . nikolas : well , i understand that , certainly . my family owns an island in greece . i used to go there to recharge sometimes . stare out at the ocean till life made sense again . sam : you know , i can finally say that i 've met someone who owns an island . nikolas : you could own one , too . i mean , jason certainly has the money . sam : how would you know that ? nikolas : one would have to assume that his services do n't come cheap . sam : if this is going to turn into a jason - bashing , maybe you can just walk along . nikolas : no , no , i did n't mean to sound snide . i apologize if it came off that way . sam : ok . nikolas : well , now that i am well on my way to being presumptuous , i might as well go for it , huh ? may i ask you a question ? sam : oh , well , as long as i do n't have to guarantee an answer , sure . nikolas : no , no , it 's not personal . i 'm just -- i 'm making an attempt to understand something about myself . i could use an objective opinion . sam : all right , shoot . nikolas : ok . losing courtney has sent me reeling , to put it lightly . my perspective has become quite skewed . i -- i have this connection to courtney 's baby that 's -- i do n't know -- it 's difficult to describe , and i just -- i wonder sometimes if i 'm just projecting , just using little john as a way to stay close to courtney . sam : well , i might be out of my depth on that one . i think that if courtney were alive , that the two of you would be raising this baby together . and i think that the fact that you feel a connection to him is very normal to me . it shows that you do n't throw people away . and i wish my mother had fought that hard to stay close to me . [ scene_break ] maxie : ahem -- i just saw dr. hottie in the locker room . robin : oh , yeah ? how 'd he seem ? maxie : do n't you know ? i mean , i saw you two earlier . you looked pretty intense . robin : i bet you 've never been accused of being subtle ever in your life . maxie : guilty as charged . so give . robin : all right . i guess you could say that i 've started to see there 's more to patrick than his overinflated ego . i like him -- a little . maxie : but ? robin : let 's just say i have my reservations . maxie : reservations ? like at metro court ? robin : no . maxie : ok , seriously , reservations -- um -- is he seeing someone ? robin : oh , i 'm sure there 's other women , but i do n't think he 's serious about anybody . maxie : so that makes him fair game . robin : hmm , it 's not that simple . maxie : why not ? robin : well , because dating when you 're h.i.v.-positive is kind of complicated . i just have to make everyone -- make sure everyone 's positions are clear . maxie : does patrick know ? robin : he has for a while now . maxie : does it seem like he has a problem with it ? robin : no , not really . maxie : and you like him ? robin : i -- i said i think i like him . maxie : oh , semantics . god , robin , everyone can see that he likes you . why do n't you just seize the moment ? [ scene_break ] bobbie : oh , you 've got it all figured out , do n't you ? you surround yourself in your own darkness . and maybe you 'll drink and maybe you wo n't . and you 'll wait for death to come and get you . and you wo n't fight to live because you do n't deserve it ? and if you sacrifice your own life , it will somehow make up for the loss of your wife 's ? noah : yeah , something like that . bobbie : well , there 's only one big flaw in this master plan of yours . it 's all about you . you forgot to factor in your son . noah : i 'm doing this to protect patrick . bobbie : noah , my son just lost his dad . and i can assure you that the worst thing you can do right now is try and build up some phony animosity to keep patrick from feeling sad when you die . because that 's a given . patrick is going to grieve , either way . and if it ends badly between the two of you , he 's going to be haunted by that for the rest of his life . [ bobbie sighs ] bobbie : you know , the most precious gift that tony ever gave to lucas was his last . unconditional love , pride , and acceptance . because tony really opened up his heart . and he left nothing unsaid , nothing unresolved . and i can already see how that 's making a difference to lucas and how he 's able to deal with everything and come to terms with what 's going on . so when you finally get what you want and you die , noah , you 're out of it . you 're buried in the ground or your ashes in an urn . but patrick is going to be left to carry however you choose to leave him for the rest of his life . now , you 're telling me you want to protect your son ? i 'm telling you , this is not the way to do it . [ scene_break ] patrick : no , i understand that , but -- ok . look , i admit she 's going to be a challenge . but i bet you 100 bucks i can get her to do it . [ scene_break ] carly : what are you doing here ? jax : oh . i -- i wanted to talk to you . carly : come in . so , is this about being little john 's legal guardian ? jax : yeah . you spoke to alexis ? carly : yeah , she 's not too happy about it . in fact , she told me i should turn it down . jax : well , then she 's really overstepping her boundaries . carly : is that a surprise ? jax : well , forget about her . it 's what i want . carly : you sure about that ? because your attorney thinks you 'd be better off going to shadybrook and waiting for some crazy person to walk out on the street . so i just want to make sure that you are sure and this is exactly what you want . jax : it 's what i want . [ scene_break ] sonny : my life just turned into an episode of `` jerry springer . `` jason : a what ? sonny : do n't worry about it . this is not right . it 's sick , it 's sick , it 's sick . jason : sonny -- sonny , it 's -- it 's ok . you did n't know . how could you know ? sonny : yeah , i -- i did n't know , but you know what ? it 's not ok . no one 's supposed to -- no one 's going to know about this , right ? we got that going jason : no , just -- just me , you , sam , that 's all . sonny : ok , you make sure it stays that way . because if this gets around , then i 'm -- it does n't look good for me . and how do i -- how do i tell kristina , that -- that innocent little girl , that i slept with her -- her mother and her sister ? and got them both -- jason : sonny , sonny , look -- you 'll never have that conversation . sam hates this more than you do . she ca n't stand alexis . she 's not going to tell her . sonny : ok , but you know how , you know , adopted kids , they want to know their biological parents . jason : yeah . sonny : they want to ask questions . jason : the difference -- sam knows alexis . and she blames her for her baby 's death , and now danny 's , too . sonny : there 's not enough scotch in the world . i 'm going to get some air .

[ scene_break ] sonny : hey . like i told you , i 'm not going to give you up . emily : and whatever we face , we 'll face it together . it 'll take time , but jason loves us both and i have to believe that he 's going to find a way to accept this . sonny : well , i 'm not so sure about that . emily : ok . then i 'll go . sonny : what -- whoa . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] alexis : i 'm here to apologize . ric overreacted . it was very hypocritical of him to condone anything unfortunate happening to manny . sam : got it -- you 're scared . bye . alexis : sam , something else we need to address and i think that we should do just that . i know that you blame me for what happened to your brother and i know that you blame me for what happened to your baby . sam : oh , i do n't really think you want to get into this right now , alexis . alexis : and i realize that you and i are never going to be friends . however , we do live in the same town . we are going to run into each other from time to time , and i 'm hoping that we might manage to be civil in public . sam : what do you want from me , alexis ? alexis : peace . law school , huh ? sam : it 's just a thought . alexis : i think it 's a great idea . it 's a lofty goal . it 's very ambitious of you . i can tell you , it 's an arduous process . sam : what , are you suggesting that i 'm not smart enough ? alexis : no . i -- sam : well , i would just like you to know that it 's actually in my genes . my mother happened to be a brilliant woman , not to mention a selfish , patronizing bitch . alexis : you know , you had a very good point earlier . it was a mistake to come here . sam : no , you know what ? you wanted in and now you 're in and now you 're not leaving until i 've had my say . [ scene_break ] noah : you think that 'll stop me ? i can have a bottle of vodka in my hand within 10 minutes . patrick : you would n't do that . noah : oh , you think not ? patrick : you just want me to believe that you hate yourself so much you would deliberately trash your life again , but what i do n't understand is why . noah : because i want you to stop helping me . patrick : i am trying to save your life . noah : i did n't ask you to ! i want my name off the donor list ! if it 's on there and a liver becomes available , i will refuse it , so stop making everybody crazy ! and do what i ask ! robin : noah , that is the most selfish , ungrateful thing i have ever heard a father say to his son . noah : you have no idea . patrick does n't have any altruistic motives here . he wants me alive for himself . he thinks if he appoints himself the liver police , it 'll make up for all the years he spent rejecting me . patrick : are you out of your mind ? noah : you know it 's true ! robin : you need to get a grip , noah . your son is trying to give you a second chance , not just with him but at life . do not throw his generosity , deserved or not , back in his face or you will regret it , i promise . [ scene_break ] maxie : you seem strangely comfortable . do you often frequent rooftops ? nikolas : no . but this one is kind of special . you could say it 's where courtney and i got started . maxie : please tell me it was n't raining . nikolas : it was , actually . maxie : rooftops and rain -- does n't get more romantic than that . so how are you doing ? nikolas : not so good , maxie . i showed up in nicu angry and belligerent , demanding to see courtney 's baby . dr. drake would 've called security and had me thrown out if elizabeth and lucky did n't defuse the situation . maxie : so you were stupid . big deal , join the club . nikolas : well , jax found out . maxie : oh . i guess he was n't too happy about that . nikolas : ahem -- or maybe he was . i mean , i just handed him additional incentive to keep me out of john 's life . that baby is all i have left of courtney . and he just makes me feel connected to her . it just does . [ scene_break ] carly : what 's wrong ? jax : you know what ? i finally figured out why you 're suddenly so enamored of me . carly : i 'm not following you . jax : it 's not me that you find irresistible . it 's my son .

[ jason sighs ] sonny : what the hell is going on ? max : oh , i fell down the stairs . hope the noise did n't disturb you at all . jason : i figured something out , and we need to talk about it . [ scene_break ] sam : i am not the person you should come to when you 're trying to sell your noble , misunderstood mother routine because i understand you perfectly . you are consumed by yourself and it is that complete and utter self - involvement that made it so easy for you to put my baby at risk and -- alexis : all right . sam : let my brother die . alexis : that 's enough . excuse me , [ scene_break ] robin : all right , we get it . you do n't want to live , so what 's the plan -- go face - down in a bar somewhere ? or something more dramatic like a leap off a roof . or better yet , what would cause patrick more pain , since that 's what you seem to be all about . noah : you could n't possibly understand . robin : you 're right , i do n't . patrick : you know what , robin ? do n't even bother . noah : you know , that was actually pretty -- some fiery defense you leapt to there , but that 's the point , is n't it ? you do n't really care about whether i get a liver or not . it 's all about making appearances in front of her . patrick : yeah , right . i ca n't slip anything past you , can i ? noah : yeah , well , hear me -- give it up . patrick : you hear me -- stop being a moron . [ scene_break ] maxie : how are you with brutal honesty ? nikolas : i can take it . maxie : good , because i do n't have an internal editor . i think jax has a right to be concerned . i mean , john 's his kid . it 's on jax to protect that little boy . and since he is the only parent , he has to be twice as vigilant . and you acted like an ass . the fact that courtney loved you does n't justify your behavior , not from where jax is standing . i mean , all he thinks is that you 're hostile , out of control , and a potential danger to his son . nikolas : i tried to make peace . he was n't receptive . maxie : maybe he would be if it came from another source . what jax needs to do is trust you again . everything you do is suspect . what you need is for someone who knows you to convince jax that all you want is what 's best for that baby . nikolas : how did someone so young get to be so smart ? maxie : i 'm kind of an old soul . besides , i 'm pretty good at fixing other people 's problems . it 's my life i seem to have an issue with . nikolas : well , you handled it just right . i appreciate your ear and will take your advice . i think i know just the person who will help me . [ scene_break ] jax : i 'm -- i 'm sorry . you know what ? that did n't come out right . carly : no , i know exactly what you meant . you think i 'm working you ? this is some big scheme so i can take your son away from you ? is that really what you think about me ? jax : you know what , carly ? honestly , i do n't know what -- i do n't know what to think . carly : wow , i am just amazed at what a sucker i can be . you know , i was starting to think for one second that you liked me and that you were starting to trust me . who knew you were such a great actor ? thanks for flubbing your lines before i made a huge mistake . jax : oh . no -- [ jax sighs ] [ glass shatters ] jax : oh . alexis , it 's jax . will you call me as soon as you get this ? i need you to handle a situation with carly . [ scene_break ] alexis : i am done being the place where you dump your anger . and i am done feeling guilty for the alleged wrongs that i committed against you . sam : not `` alleged `` -- fact . alexis : no . the one thing , the only thing that i did was lose it with you in the hospital chapel when i thought my daughter 's life was on the line . i was desperate . you were my only hope and i said things to you without thinking , and for that , i apologize profusely to you as i have done a thousand times already . the only valid accusation that you have made of me , sam , is that i put my daughter 's well - being above everything else -- that 's it . i am done apologizing to you for anything else . sam : nice . that conveniently glosses over the fact that you 're responsible for my brother 's death . alexis : dr. patrick drake made the decision to give me the antidote . he did that because i have two children who are dependent on me . sam : of course , of course ! it always comes back to your sainted motherhood , does n't it ? alexis : is there ever going to be a moment where you might show me a modicum of respect ? i am certain that you are going to have children someday , sam , and you 're going to know what it 's like to put their welfare in front of yours , and i ca n't wait personally for that moment , because maybe then you will show me a little understanding and a bit of forgiveness . [ scene_break ] jason : you did n't return any of my calls sonny : yeah , well -- jason : when you were gone . sonny : i was just busy , you know ? what 's the problem ? jason : well , it started with max . sonny : what , you 've been talking to max ? jason : well , he -- he 's been tailing carly for me and she 's making his life hell , by the way . sonny : you 're surprised ? i mean , you know , why is max on carly anyway ? jason : well , because michael called when you were away . sonny : right . jason : he wanted to talk to you about jax and carly . sonny : what about them ? jason : they went out on a date . you were unreachable , so max brought it to me . sonny : well , they have been spending a lot of time at the hospital , taking care of courtney 's baby . they just probably went out to dinner . it 's no big deal . jason : i just -- you know , i think it 's more . sonny : you 're kidding me , right ? carly -- first of all , carly does n't even like jax that much . she knows that he 's not on our side . she 's just probably doing this just to get my attention . jason : ok , sonny , that 's what i thought , but i actually think that she might be falling for jax . sonny : jason , never happen . jason : ok , just in case -- sonny : right . jason : i told max to make sure it did n't , but he trailed them to a room at the metro court . sonny : wait , wait , wait , wait , wait , wait , wait . they got a room ? did they -- jason : i do n't know what they did , because carly saw max . sonny : you know max is going to want a raise for this . you know how he is . jason : well , he should get a raise . sonny : ok , jax and carly -- that 's not good . i assume you know that . jason : you got to ask me that ? sonny : well , why did you put max on surveillance ? you know he has no experience with carly . why did n't you take her yourself ? jason : i had something else to deal with . sonny : must 've been important . jason : you might want to sit down for this . [ scene_break ] noah : i guess you heard everything , huh ? bobbie : every ghastly word . what clicks on inside your head that allows you to be so cruel to your son ? noah , you are not like that . you are a kind , loving , gentle man and i know you love patrick , so i do n't understand why you 're intentionally being so nasty . noah : i 'm dying bobbie . `` here lies the once promising dr. noah drake who drank himself to death . `` that was my choice , i chose that . that 's my burden , not patrick 's . bobbie : i do n't understand why you are so accepting of your own death . noah : then you 're not listening . i brought this on myself . i 'm not going to stand in line and wait for a liver transplant and snatch it from somebody who i think is more deserving . bobbie : `` somebody who 's more deserving , `` i know , i know , i know , and i 've heard that before , but it does n't make any sense to me . noah , what constitutes deserving ? noah : someone who did n't give himself a liver disease . bobbie : patrick is willing to step into that breach . why wo n't you let him ? noah : bobbie , you 're a nurse . you know that a partial liver transplant surgery involves certain risks to the donor . bobbie : low risks , less than 20 % . noah : yeah , well , i think that 's high . look , patrick 's -- patrick 's got a brilliant life ahead of him . why would i ask him to risk that for somebody who did n't think enough of their own life not to systematically destroy it ? bobbie : because he wants to . noah : yeah , well , i 'm not having that . bobbie : ok , then fine . but why not use the rest of the time that you have with your son to bring yourself closer to him instead of yelling at him and pushing him away ? noah : if i do n't get any closer to patrick , he wo n't miss me when i 'm gone . bobbie : oh , you know what ? everything that patrick just said to you is right . you are behaving like a moron .

[ scene_break ] jax : you know , i was really counting on that family -- you , me , your mom -- the way courtney and i dreamed about it . i wanted your mother to enjoy every stage of your life without fearing helena and what she 's capable of . that 's -- that 's why i switched your d.n.a . results -- to give you a better life . you know , i probably wo n't win any morality awards for what i 've done , but every day i 'm more convinced that i made the right choice , because nikolas is starting to behave like a true cassadine . you know , he 's just -- he 's unpredictable . that 's just not healthy for you . i mean , your life is about more than being a reminder of your mother . you 're a person , you know , not a touchstone for nikolas ' grief . but you do n't have to worry about that because i 'm going to take care of you . and i 'm going to love you . i give you my word .

[ scene_break ] bobbie : oh , you 've got it all figured out , do n't you ? you surround yourself in your own darkness . and maybe you 'll drink and maybe you wo n't . and you 'll wait for death to come and get you . and you wo n't fight to live because you do n't deserve it ? and if you sacrifice your own life , it will somehow make up for the loss of your wife 's ? noah : yeah , something like that . bobbie : well , there 's only one big flaw in this master plan of yours . it 's all about you . you forgot to factor in your son . noah : i 'm doing this to protect patrick . bobbie : noah , my son just lost his dad . and i can assure you that the worst thing you can do right now is try and build up some phony animosity to keep patrick from feeling sad when you die . because that 's a given . patrick is going to grieve , either way . and if it ends badly between the two of you , he 's going to be haunted by that for the rest of his life . [ bobbie sighs ] bobbie : you know , the most precious gift that tony ever gave to lucas was his last . unconditional love , pride , and acceptance . because tony really opened up his heart . and he left nothing unsaid , nothing unresolved . and i can already see how that 's making a difference to lucas and how he 's able to deal with everything and come to terms with what 's going on . so when you finally get what you want and you die , noah , you 're out of it . you 're buried in the ground or your ashes in an urn . but patrick is going to be left to carry however you choose to leave him for the rest of his life . now , you 're telling me you want to protect your son ? i 'm telling you , this is not the way to do it .

[ scene_break ] john : see , the autopsy report says jen 's blood had a high level of carbon monoxide in it . michael : it 's wrong . john : you sure ? michael : it 's wrong , john . i 'll run the blood test again , okay , but everything that i 've seen here shows that jen did n't kill herself . now , it 's going to take a lot more to prove that it was murder . john : i know . i know . there 's this letter that she sent riley that could be construed as a suicide note . colson was closing in on an arrest . she broke up with her boyfriend . everything points neatly to a suicide . michael : yeah . marcie thinks that it 's her fault because of the suicide in her book . john : no , i do n't think this has anything to do with `` the killing club `` murders . does n't fit . none of it makes sense . michael : what are we supposed to do with any of this ? i mean , none of this is admissible in court . this is an illegal autopsy . john , you should 've got somebody who was licensed to do this , somebody who was licensed to perform autopsies . john : i do n't trust anyone else , mike . if you 're right , this autopsy report has been corrupted . i need to know the second opinion is n't . michael : if anybody finds out what i have done here tonight , you and me both , guy -- we are going to lose our careers . we can kiss them goodbye . john : i 'm willing to risk it , mike . you want out , no hard feelings . i understand .

[ scene_break ] dr. jamison : what does it feel like when this voice talks to you , jessica ? jessica : well , it 's not always a voice . sometimes it 's -- it 's a feeling . it 's something driving me , taking control , telling me to do things . like at the custody hearing today for antonio 's daughter , i had to fight back so hard . dr. jamison : what do you think might have triggered it ? jessica : they were talking about antonio 's affair . hearing about him sleep with another woman . dr. jamison : and you wanted to strike back ? jessica : no , not me . no , it was something or someone inside of me . dr. jamison : but you were able to get control ? jessica : well , i had to . i -- i could n't let antonio down , not after the fire . i mean , it was my fault . i was the one that was supposed to be taking care of jamie . dr. jamison : but you still do n't remember ? jessica : i wanted to tell my mother about it . but she got sick . she has a heart condition . so i could n't tell her . i just figured that she 'd understand better than anyone . dr. jamison : why is that ? jessica : because my mom -- she had -- she had the same thing , i think . dr. jamison : what is it your mother had ? jessica : dissociative identity disorder . do you think that 's it ? do you think that 's what i have ? dr. jamison : i ca n't begin to make a diagnosis yet . we just started to work together . jessica : but it 's possible because my mother had it ? dr. jamison : there can be a genetic predisposition . but -- but it does n't necessarily mean you 're suffering from it , jessica . jessica : what else could it be ? dr. jamison : any number of things . whatever it is , it 's serious , especially given the experiences you had when you lost your daughter . [ scene_break ] will : see ? there you go . now it 's a bird . r.j. : i hope you do n't mind my bringing jamie , but her baby - sitter had to take off , and i just wo n't leave her by herself . lindsay : mind ? i love jamie , you know that . i remember when sam used to do that trick with the kids when they were little , and will figured it out . but jen thought it was pure magic . she was wide - eyed , just like jamie is now . r.j. : it 's okay . it 's okay . lindsay : she was so precious at that age . she loved everything -- jumping in puddles and running headfirst into every experience . i must have saved her life every five minutes . but i could n't save her this time . [ scene_break ] bo : what 's the harm in john mcbain looking into things ? daniel : because the evidence is all in . jen committed suicide . she was a troubled young girl who more than likely killed paul cramer , too . that 's it . case closed . bo : yeah , but some things about it do n't quite sit right . daniel : what things ? bo : we 'll keep you posted . it 's not likely we 'll find anything anyway , right ? daniel : well , just make sure you keep me in the loop this time . i want to be in on everything . i owe jen that much . rex : the guy 's so slick he could slide under a door . he does n't give a damn about jen . he just wants the case closed so he can ride off into the sunset like some big political hero . bo : hmm . rex : jen 's dead , and he 's still dogging her . what ? bo : nothing . rex : no , you just thought of something . is it something colson said ? bo : no , it 's nothing he said . rex : then what ? bo : i saw him right before the autopsy . rex : and what ? what happened ? bo : back off , balsom . rex : why ? you do n't trust the guy , or else you would n't be having michael mcbain doing another autopsy on the side . so , what do you think ? colson paid off the m.e . ? bo : let 's not jump to that right away , okay ? rex : okay , but if the autopsy is wrong , then -- bo : we 're not going to know anything for sure until michael finishes the autopsy . now , if you do n't calm down , i 'm going to have to lock you up in a small room somewhere until you learn how to keep your mouth shut . rex : okay , okay . all right , i 'll chill . i just -- i just ca n't be here right now , okay ? everywhere i look , i see jen . i ca n't deal with it .

[ scene_break ] john : so if jen was manually asphyxiated , that proves she was murdered . michael : blood in her lungs , ruptured vessels around her eyes , the bluish color of her lips and fingertips -- yeah , i 'd say that that all adds up to a possible homicide . john : possible ? there were fresh bruises on her shoulders and her arms . that indicates sign of a struggle . michael : john , i 'm playing devil 's advocate , okay ? these bruises -- they could 've happened anywhere , anytime , and by anyone . john : what , are you a lawyer now ? michael : no . but you 're going to be up against one . john : you know what ? you 're right , mike . i got to cover all my bases , so you 're going to have to find me something else . michael : john , i -- john : we 're not leaving here , mike , until you find something .

we can fix this . we can fix this . do n't give up on us ! jack : why not ? you sure as hell did . phyllis : [ sighs ] nick : oh , hey . you 're looking employed . you must have worked things out with chelsea . sharon : thank you for the pep talk . i 'm actually on my way to see a distributor . nick : ah , good for you . sharon : oh , i 'm glad i ran into you . faith wants to do something kind of special for connor next time you see him . nick : that 's our girl . sweet as can be . although i do n't think that 's gon na be in the cards . sharon : i thought you were helping chelsea and connor through all this . nick : yeah . chelsea told me to stay the hell out of her life . michael : hello , brother . i got your message . everything okay ? kevin : i need a sounding board . michael : what can i help you with ? kevin : well , i had a conversation with chloe that 's not sitting well with me . michael : oh , relationship advice . you know , maybe this time you should try lauren . she 's not only beautiful and sexy , but she 's pretty brilliant at this kind of stuff . kevin : no , no , no , that 's not what this is about . i think chloe 's hiding something . something huge . chloe : so , she was just hugging connor so tight , i swear she was nibbling on his ear . it was the cutest thing you 've ever seen . wait . you know what ? let 's -- let 's just go . no , you -- you do n't need any more questions about adam 's escape , and this guy just does n't know when to quit . dylan : [ sighs ] chloe : come on , we can still leave . chelsea : no . chloe : let 's go . chelsea : i 'm not running . dylan : good morning . chelsea : no more questions , dylan . please . not today . not ever . dylan : you 'll be glad to know that i 'm officially off the case . restraining order . victor newman . chelsea : victor filed a restraining order against you ? dylan : he did . and my orders are to follow it . chelsea : your orders . okay . since when has that ever stopped you ? victor : the destruction of jack abbott 's marriage to phyllis abbott moves me so deeply . nikki : yes . victor : right . nikki : except for the fact that you probably had a part in setting it in motion . victor : in what way ? nikki : phyllis never got over what happened with marco . i mean , you ca n't deny that it broke her , and now her marriage . victor : sweetheart , give me a break . phyllis abbott is not known exactly for fidelity , now , is she , huh ? remember when she jumped in the sack with our son nicholas ? and now with billy boy abbott ? do n't look at me . do n't blame me for that . there 's only one person to blame . cane : the script looks good . are there any changes you want to make ? billy : you care about my opinions , cane ? cane : billy , i want to work , okay ? so if you 're here , let 's work . billy : yeah , that makes two of us . unfortunately , victoria does n't want to be in the same room as me . cane : all right , listen . do you want to talk about what 's going on here ? billy : with you ? no , i do n't . cane : okay . well , you know what ? i know what your options are , okay , so maybe i 'm the only sympathetic ear you 'll get . billy : oh , come on . you have a sympathetic ear ? cane : yeah . billy : give me a break . i mean , you got to be loving this . i go down in flames because of the scandalous affair , and you rise from the ashes . you take over brash & sassy , of course , along with victoria . cane : you do realize that i actually want to win this company with my business acumen , okay ? i do n't want to win it because you 're just acting like a complete and total idiot . billy : appreciate that . cane : okay , you 're welcome . all right , all right , okay , listen . if you want to talk , let 's talk , all right ? billy : right now i 'm more worried about jack and phyllis . cane : oh . what ? so now you 're worried about jack and phyllis ? billy : and you wonder why i do n't open up to you ? cane : all right , i 'm sorry . that was uncool . i apologize to you . look , i 've seen where you are , okay ? i 've seen it before . when hilary and devon fell in love , neil was married to her , all right , and it caused nothing but anger and pain , so if you want me to tell you what you 're gon na face is easy , it 's not , all right ? you 're gon na be raked over the coals by the public and your family for this . billy : like i just said , jack and phyllis are my priorities . they need to figure this out , okay ? they just ... they got to get back together . they have to . cane : is that what you want ? you do realize there 's a very good chance it 's gon na happen . victoria : what was he thinking ? no common sense . no sense of decency . his brother 's wife ? i mean , come on . who does that ? jill : my idiot son . that 's who does that . victoria : and then he shows up at the house to pick up the kids as if it 's any other day and there are n't a dozen reporters trailing his every step . does he really think that that 's a safe environment for the children ? jill : obviously not . victoria : i am so over waiting for billy to grow up . and if you expect me to feel sorry for him , do n't . he deserves to stew in this mess . jill : let me tell you something . i always think you do the right thing , victoria . but in this particular case , at this particular moment , letting billy stew in it would be a huge mistake , and it 's one you ca n't afford to make . phyllis : i love you . i love you ! jack : do not say those words to me . phyllis : those words are the reason i ended it with billy ! i chose you ! i chose our marriage . jack : that makes it all better ? because you chose our marriage ? this was n't a momentary lapse in judgment . this lasted for months ! you took whatever meaning our marriage had and put a blowtorch to it . phyllis : but you said that we should go to therapy . you said we should be prepared to be painfully honest with each other , and you said that the truth was gon na hurt ! jack : that 's when i thought our marriage was worth saving ! this marriage died the moment you crawled into bed with billy . phyllis : i ended that ! i ended that weeks ago ! jack : you know what ? let 's talk about that noble decision you made all those weeks ago . where were you ? what were you and billy doing when i was at adam 's memorial days ago ? phyllis : [ stifled sob ] jack : save your breath . i got my answer . kevin : i was talking to chloe about belle 's dad . michael : ooh . could n't you have stuck to the weather or something ? the packers , anything ? kevin : michael , i need to know everything . i ca n't help it . michael : yeah , 'cause you love her . kevin : the guy does n't know he has a daughter . michael : this is chloe we 're talking about . that 's her choice . kevin : she claims his life is complicated and that 's why she never told him about bella . michael : i 'm sure chloe has made her choices for any number of chloe reasons . maybe you should respect that and her privacy . kevin : yeah , i get that . but when she first came back to town , the story was that the dad was a one - night stand . now he 's somebody with a complicated life , which means she knows him , right ? michael : or not , right ? kevin : as far as sounding boards go , you 're not being very helpful . michael : all right , here 's my advice -- back off . kevin : worst sounding board in the history of sounding boards . michael : if you keep bulldogging chloe for answers , you risk alienating her completely . and where is the picket fence down that road ? that is what you want , is n't it ? kevin : so i stop asking . michael : or do n't . you keep on asking or investigating on your own . the dad hears about it . he blows into town , wants to be a part of belle 's life or chloe 's life . and where does that leave you ? on the outside looking in . kevin : does n't this guy deserve to know he has a daughter ? michael : depends . is he some great guy who wants to be the rock in belle 's life , or is he someone like your father ? look , kevin , you need to think long and hard about the repercussions of you sticking your nose into this . this man being in their lives could be bad for bella , bad for chloe , maybe even bad for you , too . dylan : if i push the investigation , i could go to jail for contempt . chelsea : does n't mean you 're gon na stop . dylan : victor 's smart . he 's hanging the possibility of me going to jail over my head , being taken away from my son , and that 's not a chance that i 'm gon na take . chelsea : so the investigation is really over . dylan : [ sighs ] come on , chelsea . we both know the truth . it 's right there in front of us . chloe : there 's a restraining order here , so this conversation needs to be done . dylan : and you decided that because victor tried to give you and adam a new life even after all the devastation that he caused . and somehow that erases everything he 's done , all his crimes , the nightmare that he put you and adam through ? chloe : okay , you need to back off . maybe you need to file a restraining order . chelsea : no , i got this . look , dylan , i get that you want the truth . i get that you 're worried about your mom and her potential involvement in all of this . so this is personal for you . well , this is personal for me , too . my husband is dead , and i have a son to raise . it 's personal for sharon , too . you know , she 's worried about you . she wants you safe . so , maybe this restraining order is a good thing . for all of us . nick : chelsea basically told me to take my doughnuts and shove it . sharon : hmm . well , i 'm sorry . i know you just wanted to help . nick : i just wanted her to know it 's okay to grieve , you know ? but she is not having it . she is locked and loaded , ready to move forward . there 's no time for tears . she even told me i did n't need to keep my promise to adam . sharon : about being there for connor ? nick : yeah . i mean , i overstepped , and i stepped right in it . sharon : well , i think you helped more than you realize . dylan and i saw chelsea at the studio , and she had been crying . of course , maybe that 's because victor was there . nick : what did he want ? sharon : he was just being victor . nick : dad is one of the reasons adam asked me to step in to try and protect connor . sharon : that little boy is really lucky to have you in his corner . nick : i made a promise to adam . i have no intention of walking out of that little boy 's life . i just need chelsea to understand i 'm only here to help . sharon : just use your nick newman charm . step by step . you 'll get there . maybe lose the doughnut angle . nick : [ chuckles ] phyllis : that day , adam 's memorial , i was so furious about victor . jack : yeah , and me for offering my condolences . phyllis : no . no , it was all about victor and what he did and what he left me to deal with , and i just -- i felt like no one understood me . jack : except for billy . [ chuckles ] i was happy you had my brother by your side for that horrible day . turns out you also had him between the sheets . please tell me it was n't our bed . phyllis : jack . no . never . jack : billy 's ? the club ? phyllis : does it matter ? jack : it matters ! where ? ! phyllis : the cabin . jack : [ breathing heavily ] again . my god ! phyllis : i walked out of there more committed to you than i ever have been to us ! jack : you have an explanation for everything , do n't you ? why you lied , why you cheated , why you lied about cheating , why you lied about lying about cheating ! phyllis : i was wrecked ! and you did n't want to see it ! you did n't see it ! and victor wrecked me , and i was put into a pit ! and i had rage and i had anger , and i could not find my way out of that ! and you did n't want to see it ! jack : so you turned to billy , because our love was n't enough . phyllis : no , i was obsessed ! i admit that ! i was obsessed getting victor to feel the kind of pain that i felt ! jack : and billy was right there to hold your hand . phyllis : i thought if i could be vindicated , i 'd find my way back to some sanity , to being me and to being whole ! i just felt empty . and i want to be whole again . i just want to be whole again with you . please , jack . please . please . jack : for over a year , i heard about your pain . i felt your pain . i wanted to help you . you did n't want my help . you wanted revenge . and not just on victor . on me , because i did n't hate him enough , because i did n't live and breathe retribution . well , you sure found a way to make me pay , did n't you ? you slept with billy because i failed you . phyllis : no . no , you did n't . jack : you keep going on about victor , how he lies , his cruelty , the pain he 's capable of inflicting on other people . he 's got nothing on you . chloe : so ready for a sugar rush . is it wrong to say that before noon ? chelsea : we need to make decisions on the fabric for the casual line . chloe : i know we do . muffin first ? chelsea : no , this first . we have a deadline , remember ? unless deadlines do n't count anymore because everyone 's so busy telling me what 's best for me . sorry . chloe : [ sighs ] do we need to have the talk again ? chelsea : what ? about how my friends are just trying to help ? chloe : yeah . that one . is it about dylan ? are you stressed about running into him again ? chelsea : i just hope this restraining order works . i hope he stops investigating victor , because this -- this needs to be over . chloe : my guess is , no more questions . ever . from dylan or anyone , including me . we have to focus on today and tomorrow and every day after that for us and for our kids . and i 'm here . whatever you need . chelsea : i feel like now what i need is a hug . chloe : oh . come here . jack : my good - for - nothing brother . the screw - up who slept with my wife . nikki : my god . to see jack like that . victor : [ chuckles ] nikki : he must really be hurting . victor : oh , it just breaks my heart . jack abbott brought to his knees by the weakest person in the world . nikki : after all the times jack has come to billy 's side , helping him , getting him back together , and then he repays him like that ? victor : i hope you understand now why i 've kept that punk billy boy abbott away from victoria as much as i could . billy : what makes you think jack and phyllis are gon na work this out ? cane : personal experience . billy : you and lily ? cane : yeah . yeah , 'cause we let lies and blame and secrets get in the way of how much we truly love each other . you know , from what i see of jack and phyllis , you know , they can have a connection , they can be just as strong . jill : okay , the thing is , that you and i have both seen billy at his very worst . we 've both seen how quickly he can spiral down out of control . victoria , right now he 's on a precipice , and the only way to go is down . he needs us . victoria : he needs to grow up . jill : well , agreed he does , but right now we need to keep him from going over the edge . victoria : well , it 's a really good thing you 're back in town . you 're gon na have your hands full , because i 'm done . jill : okay , so what you 're saying is that because travis is in your life right now , you 're gon na turn your back on the father of your children ? victoria : until he grows up , yeah , pretty much . jill : hey . what are you gon na tell katie and johnny when daddy hits bottom ? or worse ? phyllis : please do n't leave like this . please do n't leave like this . jack : what ? you want me to stick around so we can have a competition over who suffered the most ? phyllis : no . no . jack : all those months i fought to get back here ... [ voice breaking ] you were my reason for survival . i thought if i could just get back here to this home , to you , to our love , i could fix things . i could make us right . i could make us whole again . phyllis : that 's what i want to do . jack : i was patient . i was understanding . when you needed time , i gave you time . when you needed space , it was yours . and the more i loved you , the more you resented me . phyllis : that 's not true . jack : you wanted to punish me . and not just by having an affair . no , you 'd done that before . that did n't hurt enough . knowing how much family meant to me , you slept with my brother . and do n't you dare claim this was some blind attempt to cover your pain . you knew exactly what you were doing . well , now you 're gon na get exactly what you wanted . phyllis : [ sobbing ] no . no . no , no , no , no . michael : wow . it 's worse than i thought . phyllis : not possible . michael : come here . it is okay . everything 's gon na be okay . phyllis : i ruined everything . michael : yeah , well , you certainly made a big , hot mess for yourself , but look , i know you , and i know jack , and yours is the kind of love that just does n't go away , so i have hope . phyllis : [ sighs ] i had hope , too . michael : `` had `` ? phyllis : he wants a divorce . michael : he said that ? he used that word ? then you talk him out of it . phyllis : or i give him exactly what he wants ... as soon as possible . nikki : oh , jack , i 'm so sorry . you have always been at my side in difficult times . if you ever need to talk , you know that i 'm here . but something tells me you 're not here to talk to me right now . victor : i think jack came to see me . jack : privately . nikki : um , i do n't know if that 's a good idea . victor : oh , we 'll be all right , sweetheart , okay ? care to join me for a drink ? jack : i think you know the answer to that one . victor : well , sometimes even the strongest fall off the wagon . jack : oh , no , i 'm very much on course . how about you ? you man enough yet to admit you started all this ? victor : you do n't mind if i have a drink , do you ? jack : help yourself . victor : you know , normally i would n't allow people to come to my house and throw insults at me , but in this case , i 'll make an exception . that tv interview -- whoa . you must be reeling from that . jack : answer the question . victor : the question is do i have anything to do with your wife 's behavior ? the answer is a flat no . billy : [ sighs ] i 'm gon na work from home . cane : wait , wait , wait . what about the shoot ? billy : i 'm sure you and victoria can handle it . cane : billy , jill 's not gon na like this , man . billy : i do n't give a damn . victoria : oh , yeah , that 's right . just run out the door . billy : well , i 'm not gon na take your abuse . victoria : you know , whatever crap you 've pulled in your personal life , you do have one thing going for you . you 're reasonably good at your job , so you can stick around here and you can do it or you can bail just like you always do when things get hard . billy : you 're so transparent . you take a dig at my professionalism to try and get me to stay ? victoria : oh , i 'm really okay with you being gone . i mean , this shoot will go a whole lot faster without you and your horrible ideas on what women want . billy : i know what you 're doing . and i know you 're behind it . and i 'm not staying because of the games . i 'm staying because this company 's important to me . just like this campaign is . see you at the studio . cane : [ sighs ] jill : good job . victoria : i said i would get him to stay . i did not say i would like it . nick : hey . chloe : hi . nick : is , uh , chelsea around ? chloe : you know , it 's really not a good time . deadline kind of thing . nick : yeah , i know . it wo n't take long . i just need to clear the air a little bit . chloe : i told him it was n't a good time . chelsea : it 's all right . chloe : okay . i guess i 'll go check the inventory . nick : [ sighs ] [ door opens ] nick : all right , so here 's the deal . i made a promise to adam that i would be in connor 's life . now you want me out . but if i was to do that , then i 'd be breaking a promise . and , you know , then the word will get out , and then i 'll be the guy that does n't keep his promises , and i ca n't have that . you know what i 'm saying ? so , kind of hoping you see the bind i 'm in here and cut me some slack . chelsea : do you really think i 'm in the mood to joke about any of this ? nikki : well , what a nice surprise . dylan : yeah , the day is just full of them . nikki : what 's wrong ? dylan : well , you know , it 's good news for you . got your wish . nikki : my wish ? what 's my wish ? sharon : hi , sweetie . dylan : hey . sharon : nikki . what 's going on ? dylan : it 's your lucky day , both of you . and i hope you 're happy . because somebody should be . chelsea : i do n't have time for this , nick . i know you mean well , but i 've made my decision . i need to work through this my way , not yours . nick : yeah , and one thing i seem to be really , really good at is upsetting you . chelsea , that 's not my intention . i 'm just at a loss on how to help you . chelsea : well , maybe giving me some space would help . nick : yeah . here i am again in your space . so i 'll go . but before i do , chelsea , i just want you to know that i 'm available , you know . you can throw things at me . you can yell . you can cry . whatever . because i did all those things when i lost ... christian and then sage . so the only thing i have to offer you is my experience . a miserable experience , because i know that this can be hell to get through . so if you ever need someone who 's had too much damn experience losing the people they love ... well , i 'm your guy . so , uh , yeah . thanks for hearing me out . chelsea : nick , wait . victoria : oh , my gosh . this looks great . okay , just , um , stay on your mark and say your lines right into the camera . okay . victoria : [ sighs ] okay . what do you think ? jill : i think it looks good . billy : if you 're going for obvious . victoria : take one . my brash . my sass -- billy : cut . cane : why ? why are you cutting ? billy : can you tell victoria that the wardrobe is wrong ? victoria : will somebody please tell billy that this is not a light beer commercial and we 're not doing bikinis ? billy : would you tell victoria that -- cane : all right , i 'm not telling victoria anything . i 'm not translating . we 're not in high school , okay ? victoria : [ sighs ] billy : okay . hold that right there . perfect . chin up a little bit . let 's go again . take two . my brash . my sass -- victoria : cut ! cane : why ? why ? why ? victoria : please tell billy that the bottle needs to be more prominently displayed so that the viewers are n't focused on her -- billy : look , could you tell victoria -- jill : enough of this ! we are professionals . could we please behave like professionals ? cane : thank you , jill . thank you very much . can we please roll on take three ? action . my brash . my sassy . billy : cut . okay , stop . can you please tell victoria that the color of the background is completely wrong ? victoria : can somebody please ask billy what makes him an expert on color scheme given the questionable color scheme of his house ? jill : well , now she does have a point there . billy : you loved the color of my house before you started busting my chops . jill : stop it ! the model is fine . the background is fine . and time is money . now let 's get this done . both : take four . my brash . my sassy . michael : so , just like that , you 're gon na give jack a divorce ? what happened to my girl who fights for what she wants ? phyllis : michael , i have ruined everything . there 's no coming back from this . michael : that might seem how it is right now . but the man did , um ... uh , he did melt down on television . he 's overwhelmed . i mean , the wounds are fresh . he only sees one way out . phyllis : he 's done nothing but love me . i 'm a monster . michael : you made a mistake , so you fix it . phyllis : [ scoffs ] michael : oh , no , no . do n't you shake your head at me . i lived this . i 've been on both sides , so i know what i 'm talking about . lauren and carmine . you remember that ? we healed . it took a hell of a lot of work , but we healed . and not so long ago , i broke lauren 's heart . i was cruel and i pushed her away for reasons that made sense at the time but were so horribly wrong . luckily i came to my senses . i fought for forgiveness . and now we 're stronger than ever . phyllis : you were on the same page . i am in this fight all alone . michael : then you need to remind jack of what brought you together , what makes you so great . and you do n't just own what you did . you look at it . you really look at it . you look at the how and the why of it , and then you promise jack , and you mean it from the bottom of your soul , that your future is with him and no one else . phyllis : he hears every word out of my mouth as a lie or an excuse . he is not going to listen to my promises . michael : then you make that promise over and over again until he does listen . look , jack is wrapped up in seeing what went wrong . you have to remind him of what was so right . jack : you honestly believe your actions played no part in what happened to me ? victor : [ sighs ] i assume you 're referring to marco . but you must remember that i was then defending my family and my company from the paragon virus . jack : with which i had nothing to do . victor : and i knew nothing about that at the time . i apologized for it to you . wish it had never happened . now , what does any of that have to do with your wife 's transgression with another man ? jack : you put a stranger in her bed . she 's never been the same since . her life has been out of control . her sense is out of control . what ? you see no link at all ? victor : whatever happened with marco is one thing . i had nothing to do with billy boy abbott being in your wife 's bed , did i ? you know what you 're upset about ? the fact that he took advantage of a damaged woman . jack : a woman damaged by you . victor : do i have anything to do with phyllis being in your brother 's bed ? she did n't just want sex with him . she wanted to find someone who hated me as much as she did . jack : right now no one fits that description better than i do . nick : a restraining order ? dylan : you really had no idea ? nikki : no . victor did n't mention that . dylan : [ sighs ] well , i know you 're happy . it 's not often you two have something in common . sharon : nikki , would you give us a moment alone ? nikki : of course . it really is for the best , sweetheart . dylan : this is what you wanted , right ? to see me off the case . sharon : look , i know how much this meant to you to get justice for adam , but it 's also very dangerous to go after victor . i just ... i do n't want you to be upset . dylan : even when you 're getting what you want ? sharon : i 'm not gon na lie . i 'm happy . but it 's so obvious that you 're not . and i do n't want this to come between us . dylan : no , come on , sharon . we 're good . sharon : yeah ? jack thought that he was good with phyllis , too . dylan : ah . that 's where this is coming from . let me tell you , husbands and wives , they disagree about all kinds of things . it 's just part of the package . now , what kills a relationship ... lies . but that 's not us . so we got nothing to worry about . chloe : hi . kevin : hi . chloe : i got your text . sounded important . kevin : it is . how 's belle 's rash ? chloe : it 's rashy . [ chuckles ] it 's fine , kevin . so , is that what this big meet 's about ? kevin : no . uh , yeah . i mean ... kinda . maybe . okay , wait . so , um , it 's definitely about bella . you . us . chloe : us ? kevin : we got a pretty good lock on this friends thing . chloe : yeah , we sure -- we sure do . kevin : and i do n't want anything to get in the way of that . chloe : same here . so , maybe we should stop this conversation right now . kevin : the questions i asked you about belle 's dad , i want to apologize . chloe : you do ? kevin : it 's your business , not mine . and bella , she 's the best . she 's amazing , perfect . and you did that . you 're the only parent she needs . so , from now on , no more questions . chloe : thank you . kevin : we good ? chloe : [ chuckles ] more than . kevin : okay . chloe : you know , i got to say , i know it sounds a little harsh , but i never even think about the guy anymore . kevin : yeah , why should you ? billy : we might have got lucky and got a decent commercial out of that . victoria : so we 're talking now ? billy : the company comes first . so we need to work together . but on the other side of the door , victoria , if you try to take my kids away from me , you 're gon na have a fight on your hands . chelsea : i have n't been fair . i 'm sorry . nick : chelsea , you do n't have anything to apologize for . chelsea : i 've just been all over the place emotionally , but i do appreciate your offer . nick : all right . maybe we just leave it at that . chelsea : maybe so . phyllis : oh , michael , i do n't know what to do . you did n't see jack . michael : oh , i have a pretty good picture of how angry he was . but he 's a reasonable man , a fair man , and he loves you . give him some time . let him find terra firma again . phyllis : he 's a fair man , but , you know , some things are just too big to forgive . michael : okay , just answer me one question . what do you want ? phyllis : i want my marriage . i want my husband back . michael : well , there . you have a plan . you have a plan . so lead with that big , gorgeous heart of yours , fight with everything you have , and let that man know that the love of his life will not take no for an answer . frankly , i do n't know how he could resist you . phyllis : you 're right . i do n't know how i 'm gon na do it . but i 'm gon na win him back . victor : sorry , jack . i think your hatred is misdirected . if you want a target , i suggest you look at your brother . jack : i reached out to you with the olive branch . not just at adam 's memorial , but ever since i came back from that hell you created for me . i wanted nothing to do with these toxic wars you wage . i wanted to make peace , and i thought maybe in making peace , i would find it , that maybe phyllis would , too . what a joke . all i did was set my wife up because she knew better than i did . there 's no forgiving you . there 's no repairing the damage you do . making peace with you is a waste of time . victor : it sounds like a declaration of war . jack : it 's a return to sanity . this war never ended . i 'll tell you what . it just escalated . [ next_on ] phyllis : there seems to be some rumors circulating about my personal life . therefore , i am here to set the record straight . jack : you were right . ashley : oh , yeah ? about what ? jack : what i do next . | billy and victoria argue with each other until jill orders them back to work while she has a word alone with victoria about billy spiraling out of control . cane lends billy a sympathetic ear while jill and victoria talk . nikki and victor find out about billy and phyllis ' affair . jack and phyllis argue to work with chelsea . kevin and michael have a talk about chloe and what she could be hiding . jill and victoria discuss billy 's problems . phyllis suggests that she and jack go to therapy . michael warns kevin about investigating chloe . chelsea and chloe enter the coffeehouse and see dylan . dylan tells them he has a restraining order against him to drop the investigation . nick tells sharon about his talk with chelsea and her refusing his help . | <s>[INST] jill : neither one of you is quitting . would you please sit down ? billy : i came here to work , not be judged . victoria : well , then maybe you should n't have slept with your brother 's wife . billy : really , vick ? is that the way it 's gon na be ? victoria : you 're all over the tabloids . that 's how it 's gon na be everywhere you go . jill : stop it ! we have a very important commercial to prep for . let 's get to work . now , cane , i would like you to go over the scripts with billy . cane : sure . jill : and , victoria , i would like a word with you in private . victoria : [ sighs ] cane : okay . victoria : if this is gon na be how you expect me to cut billy some slack , you can forget it . what he did was despicable . jill : you expect an argument out of me ? i could n't agree with you more about my miserable excuse for a son . nikki : well , look at you . careful . that 's almost a smile . victor : [ chuckles ] it 's a good day , is n't it ? nikki : yeah . and i think i can make it even better . victor : oh , yeah ? what do you have in mind ? nikki : i talked to dylan , and i think i have convinced him to stop investigating you . victor : well , sweetheart , that 's very kind of you , but i 've already taken care of that . nikki : what is this ? `` family affair `` ? [ gasps ] my god ! phyllis and billy were having an affair ? ! [ gasps ] jack must be devastated . victor : my heart is bleeding . is n't that shocking ? nikki : yeah . victor : [ chuckles ] nikki : now i know why you 're in such a good mood . victor : mm - hmm . phyllis : [ sobbing ] you are upset , and i understand that . you have every right to be upset . jack : well , thank you for letting me own my feelings . phyllis : you want me out of the company , i 'll leave the company , but ... a divorce ? we can fix this . we can fix this . do n't give up on us ! jack : why not ? you sure as hell did . phyllis : [ sighs ] nick : oh , hey . you 're looking employed . you must have worked things out with chelsea . sharon : thank you for the pep talk . i 'm actually on my way to see a distributor . nick : ah , good for you . sharon : oh , i 'm glad i ran into you . faith wants to do something kind of special for connor next time you see him . nick : that 's our girl . sweet as can be . although i do n't think that 's gon na be in the cards . sharon : i thought you were helping chelsea and connor through all this . nick : yeah . chelsea told me to stay the hell out of her life . michael : hello , brother . i got your message . everything okay ? kevin : i need a sounding board . michael : what can i help you with ? kevin : well , i had a conversation with chloe that 's not sitting well with me . michael : oh , relationship advice . you know , maybe this time you should try lauren . she 's not only beautiful and sexy , but she 's pretty brilliant at this kind of stuff . kevin : no , no , no , that 's not what this is about . i think chloe 's hiding something . something huge . chloe : so , she was just hugging connor so tight , i swear she was nibbling on his ear . it was the cutest thing you 've ever seen . wait . you know what ? let 's -- let 's just go . no , you -- you do n't need any more questions about adam 's escape , and this guy just does n't know when to quit . dylan : [ sighs ] chloe : come on , we can still leave . chelsea : no . chloe : let 's go . chelsea : i 'm not running . dylan : good morning . chelsea : no more questions , dylan . please . not today . not ever . dylan : you 'll be glad to know that i 'm officially off the case . restraining order . victor newman . chelsea : victor filed a restraining order against you ? dylan : he did . and my orders are to follow it . chelsea : your orders . okay . since when has that ever stopped you ? victor : the destruction of jack abbott 's marriage to phyllis abbott moves me so deeply . nikki : yes . victor : right . nikki : except for the fact that you probably had a part in setting it in motion . victor : in what way ? nikki : phyllis never got over what happened with marco . i mean , you ca n't deny that it broke her , and now her marriage . victor : sweetheart , give me a break . phyllis abbott is not known exactly for fidelity , now , is she , huh ? remember when she jumped in the sack with our son nicholas ? and now with billy boy abbott ? do n't look at me . do n't blame me for that . there 's only one person to blame . cane : the script looks good . are there any changes you want to make ? billy : you care about my opinions , cane ? cane : billy , i want to work , okay ? so if you 're here , let 's work . billy : yeah , that makes two of us . unfortunately , victoria does n't want to be in the same room as me . cane : all right , listen . do you want to talk about what 's going on here ? billy : with you ? no , i do n't . cane : okay . well , you know what ? i know what your options are , okay , so maybe i 'm the only sympathetic ear you 'll get . billy : oh , come on . you have a sympathetic ear ? cane : yeah . billy : give me a break . i mean , you got to be loving this . i go down in flames because of the scandalous affair , and you rise from the ashes . you take over brash & sassy , of course , along with victoria . cane : you do realize that i actually want to win this company with my business acumen , okay ? i do n't want to win it because you 're just acting like a complete and total idiot . billy : appreciate that . cane : okay , you 're welcome . all right , all right , okay , listen . if you want to talk , let 's talk , all right ? billy : right now i 'm more worried about jack and phyllis . cane : oh . what ? so now you 're worried about jack and phyllis ? billy : and you wonder why i do n't open up to you ? cane : all right , i 'm sorry . that was uncool . i apologize to you . look , i 've seen where you are , okay ? i 've seen it before . when hilary and devon fell in love , neil was married to her , all right , and it caused nothing but anger and pain , so if you want me to tell you what you 're gon na face is easy , it 's not , all right ? you 're gon na be raked over the coals by the public and your family for this . billy : like i just said , jack and phyllis are my priorities . they need to figure this out , okay ? they just ... they got to get back together . they have to . cane : is that what you want ? you do realize there 's a very good chance it 's gon na happen . victoria : what was he thinking ? no common sense . no sense of decency . his brother 's wife ? i mean , come on . who does that ? jill : my idiot son . that 's who does that . victoria : and then he shows up at the house to pick up the kids as if it 's any other day and there are n't a dozen reporters trailing his every step . does he really think that that 's a safe environment for the children ? jill : obviously not . victoria : i am so over waiting for billy to grow up . and if you expect me to feel sorry for him , do n't . he deserves to stew in this mess . jill : let me tell you something . i always think you do the right thing , victoria . but in this particular case , at this particular moment , letting billy stew in it would be a huge mistake , and it 's one you ca n't afford to make . phyllis : i love you . i love you ! jack : do not say those words to me . phyllis : those words are the reason i ended it with billy ! i chose you ! i chose our marriage . jack : that makes it all better ? because you chose our marriage ? this was n't a momentary lapse in judgment . this lasted for months ! you took whatever meaning our marriage had and put a blowtorch to it . phyllis : but you said that we should go to therapy . you said we should be prepared to be painfully honest with each other , and you said that the truth was gon na hurt ! jack : that 's when i thought our marriage was worth saving ! this marriage died the moment you crawled into bed with billy . phyllis : i ended that ! i ended that weeks ago ! jack : you know what ? let 's talk about that noble decision you made all those weeks ago . where were you ? what were you and billy doing when i was at adam 's memorial days ago ? phyllis : [ stifled sob ] jack : save your breath . i got my answer . kevin : i was talking to chloe about belle 's dad . michael : ooh . could n't you have stuck to the weather or something ? the packers , anything ? kevin : michael , i need to know everything . i ca n't help it . michael : yeah , 'cause you love her . kevin : the guy does n't know he has a daughter . michael : this is chloe we 're talking about . that 's her choice . kevin : she claims his life is complicated and that 's why she never told him about bella . michael : i 'm sure chloe has made her choices for any number of chloe reasons . maybe you should respect that and her privacy . kevin : yeah , i get that . but when she first came back to town , the story was that the dad was a one - night stand . now he 's somebody with a complicated life , which means she knows him , right ? michael : or not , right ? kevin : as far as sounding boards go , you 're not being very helpful . michael : all right , here 's my advice -- back off . kevin : worst sounding board in the history of sounding boards . michael : if you keep bulldogging chloe for answers , you risk alienating her completely . and where is the picket fence down that road ? that is what you want , is n't it ? kevin : so i stop asking . michael : or do n't . you keep on asking or investigating on your own . the dad hears about it . he blows into town , wants to be a part of belle 's life or chloe 's life . and where does that leave you ? on the outside looking in . kevin : does n't this guy deserve to know he has a daughter ? michael : depends . is he some great guy who wants to be the rock in belle 's life , or is he someone like your father ? look , kevin , you need to think long and hard about the repercussions of you sticking your nose into this . this man being in their lives could be bad for bella , bad for chloe , maybe even bad for you , too . dylan : if i push the investigation , i could go to jail for contempt . chelsea : does n't mean you 're gon na stop . dylan : victor 's smart . he 's hanging the possibility of me going to jail over my head , being taken away from my son , and that 's not a chance that i 'm gon na take . chelsea : so the investigation is really over . dylan : [ sighs ] come on , chelsea . we both know the truth . it 's right there in front of us . chloe : there 's a restraining order here , so this conversation needs to be done . dylan : and you decided that because victor tried to give you and adam a new life even after all the devastation that he caused . and somehow that erases everything he 's done , all his crimes , the nightmare that he put you and adam through ? chloe : okay , you need to back off . maybe you need to file a restraining order . chelsea : no , i got this . look , dylan , i get that you want the truth . i get that you 're worried about your mom and her potential involvement in all of this . so this is personal for you . well , this is personal for me , too . my husband is dead , and i have a son to raise . it 's personal for sharon , too . you know , she 's worried about you . she wants you safe . so , maybe this restraining order is a good thing . for all of us . nick : chelsea basically told me to take my doughnuts and shove it . sharon : hmm . well , i 'm sorry . i know you just wanted to help . nick : i just wanted her to know it 's okay to grieve , you know ? but she is not having it . she is locked and loaded , ready to move forward . there 's no time for tears . she even told me i did n't need to keep my promise to adam . sharon : about being there for connor ? nick : yeah . i mean , i overstepped , and i stepped right in it . sharon : well , i think you helped more than you realize . dylan and i saw chelsea at the studio , and she had been crying . of course , maybe that 's because victor was there . nick : what did he want ? sharon : he was just being victor . nick : dad is one of the reasons adam asked me to step in to try and protect connor . sharon : that little boy is really lucky to have you in his corner . nick : i made a promise to adam . i have no intention of walking out of that little boy 's life . i just need chelsea to understand i 'm only here to help . sharon : just use your nick newman charm . step by step . you 'll get there . maybe lose the doughnut angle . nick : [ chuckles ] phyllis : that day , adam 's memorial , i was so furious about victor . jack : yeah , and me for offering my condolences . phyllis : no . no , it was all about victor and what he did and what he left me to deal with , and i just -- i felt like no one understood me . jack : except for billy . [ chuckles ] i was happy you had my brother by your side for that horrible day . turns out you also had him between the sheets . please tell me it was n't our bed . phyllis : jack . no . never . jack : billy 's ? the club ? phyllis : does it matter ? jack : it matters ! where ? ! phyllis : the cabin . jack : [ breathing heavily ] again . my god ! phyllis : i walked out of there more committed to you than i ever have been to us ! jack : you have an explanation for everything , do n't you ? why you lied , why you cheated , why you lied about cheating , why you lied about lying about cheating ! phyllis : i was wrecked ! and you did n't want to see it ! you did n't see it ! and victor wrecked me , and i was put into a pit ! and i had rage and i had anger , and i could not find my way out of that ! and you did n't want to see it ! jack : so you turned to billy , because our love was n't enough . phyllis : no , i was obsessed ! i admit that ! i was obsessed getting victor to feel the kind of pain that i felt ! jack : and billy was right there to hold your hand . phyllis : i thought if i could be vindicated , i 'd find my way back to some sanity , to being me and to being whole ! i just felt empty . and i want to be whole again . i just want to be whole again with you . please , jack . please . please . jack : for over a year , i heard about your pain . i felt your pain . i wanted to help you . you did n't want my help . you wanted revenge . and not just on victor . on me , because i did n't hate him enough , because i did n't live and breathe retribution . well , you sure found a way to make me pay , did n't you ? you slept with billy because i failed you . phyllis : no . no , you did n't . jack : you keep going on about victor , how he lies , his cruelty , the pain he 's capable of inflicting on other people . he 's got nothing on you . chloe : so ready for a sugar rush . is it wrong to say that before noon ? chelsea : we need to make decisions on the fabric for the casual line . chloe : i know we do . muffin first ? chelsea : no , this first . we have a deadline , remember ? unless deadlines do n't count anymore because everyone 's so busy telling me what 's best for me . sorry . chloe : [ sighs ] do we need to have the talk again ? chelsea : what ? about how my friends are just trying to help ? chloe : yeah . that one . is it about dylan ? are you stressed about running into him again ? chelsea : i just hope this restraining order works . i hope he stops investigating victor , because this -- this needs to be over . chloe : my guess is , no more questions . ever . from dylan or anyone , including me . we have to focus on today and tomorrow and every day after that for us and for our kids . and i 'm here . whatever you need . chelsea : i feel like now what i need is a hug . chloe : oh . come here . jack : my good - for - nothing brother . the screw - up who slept with my wife . nikki : my god . to see jack like that . victor : [ chuckles ] nikki : he must really be hurting . victor : oh , it just breaks my heart . jack abbott brought to his knees by the weakest person in the world . nikki : after all the times jack has come to billy 's side , helping him , getting him back together , and then he repays him like that ? victor : i hope you understand now why i 've kept that punk billy boy abbott away from victoria as much as i could . billy : what makes you think jack and phyllis are gon na work this out ? cane : personal experience . billy : you and lily ? cane : yeah . yeah , 'cause we let lies and blame and secrets get in the way of how much we truly love each other . you know , from what i see of jack and phyllis , you know , they can have a connection , they can be just as strong . jill : okay , the thing is , that you and i have both seen billy at his very worst . we 've both seen how quickly he can spiral down out of control . victoria , right now he 's on a precipice , and the only way to go is down . he needs us . victoria : he needs to grow up . jill : well , agreed he does , but right now we need to keep him from going over the edge . victoria : well , it 's a really good thing you 're back in town . you 're gon na have your hands full , because i 'm done . jill : okay , so what you 're saying is that because travis is in your life right now , you 're gon na turn your back on the father of your children ? victoria : until he grows up , yeah , pretty much . jill : hey . what are you gon na tell katie and johnny when daddy hits bottom ? or worse ? phyllis : please do n't leave like this . please do n't leave like this . jack : what ? you want me to stick around so we can have a competition over who suffered the most ? phyllis : no . no . jack : all those months i fought to get back here ... [ voice breaking ] you were my reason for survival . i thought if i could just get back here to this home , to you , to our love , i could fix things . i could make us right . i could make us whole again . phyllis : that 's what i want to do . jack : i was patient . i was understanding . when you needed time , i gave you time . when you needed space , it was yours . and the more i loved you , the more you resented me . phyllis : that 's not true . jack : you wanted to punish me . and not just by having an affair . no , you 'd done that before . that did n't hurt enough . knowing how much family meant to me , you slept with my brother . and do n't you dare claim this was some blind attempt to cover your pain . you knew exactly what you were doing . well , now you 're gon na get exactly what you wanted . phyllis : [ sobbing ] no . no . no , no , no , no . michael : wow . it 's worse than i thought . phyllis : not possible . michael : come here . it is okay . everything 's gon na be okay . phyllis : i ruined everything . michael : yeah , well , you certainly made a big , hot mess for yourself , but look , i know you , and i know jack , and yours is the kind of love that just does n't go away , so i have hope . phyllis : [ sighs ] i had hope , too . michael : `` had `` ? phyllis : he wants a divorce . michael : he said that ? he used that word ? then you talk him out of it . phyllis : or i give him exactly what he wants ... as soon as possible . nikki : oh , jack , i 'm so sorry . you have always been at my side in difficult times . if you ever need to talk , you know that i 'm here . but something tells me you 're not here to talk to me right now . victor : i think jack came to see me . jack : privately . nikki : um , i do n't know if that 's a good idea . victor : oh , we 'll be all right , sweetheart , okay ? care to join me for a drink ? jack : i think you know the answer to that one . victor : well , sometimes even the strongest fall off the wagon . jack : oh , no , i 'm very much on course . how about you ? you man enough yet to admit you started all this ? victor : you do n't mind if i have a drink , do you ? jack : help yourself . victor : you know , normally i would n't allow people to come to my house and throw insults at me , but in this case , i 'll make an exception . that tv interview -- whoa . you must be reeling from that . jack : answer the question . victor : the question is do i have anything to do with your wife 's behavior ? the answer is a flat no . billy : [ sighs ] i 'm gon na work from home . cane : wait , wait , wait . what about the shoot ? billy : i 'm sure you and victoria can handle it . cane : billy , jill 's not gon na like this , man . billy : i do n't give a damn . victoria : oh , yeah , that 's right . just run out the door . billy : well , i 'm not gon na take your abuse . victoria : you know , whatever crap you 've pulled in your personal life , you do have one thing going for you . you 're reasonably good at your job , so you can stick around here and you can do it or you can bail just like you always do when things get hard . billy : you 're so transparent . you take a dig at my professionalism to try and get me to stay ? victoria : oh , i 'm really okay with you being gone . i mean , this shoot will go a whole lot faster without you and your horrible ideas on what women want . billy : i know what you 're doing . and i know you 're behind it . and i 'm not staying because of the games . i 'm staying because this company 's important to me . just like this campaign is . see you at the studio . cane : [ sighs ] jill : good job . victoria : i said i would get him to stay . i did not say i would like it . nick : hey . chloe : hi . nick : is , uh , chelsea around ? chloe : you know , it 's really not a good time . deadline kind of thing . nick : yeah , i know . it wo n't take long . i just need to clear the air a little bit . chloe : i told him it was n't a good time . chelsea : it 's all right . chloe : okay . i guess i 'll go check the inventory . nick : [ sighs ] [ door opens ] nick : all right , so here 's the deal . i made a promise to adam that i would be in connor 's life . now you want me out . but if i was to do that , then i 'd be breaking a promise . and , you know , then the word will get out , and then i 'll be the guy that does n't keep his promises , and i ca n't have that . you know what i 'm saying ? so , kind of hoping you see the bind i 'm in here and cut me some slack . chelsea : do you really think i 'm in the mood to joke about any of this ? nikki : well , what a nice surprise . dylan : yeah , the day is just full of them . nikki : what 's wrong ? dylan : well , you know , it 's good news for you . got your wish . nikki : my wish ? what 's my wish ? sharon : hi , sweetie . dylan : hey . sharon : nikki . what 's going on ? dylan : it 's your lucky day , both of you . and i hope you 're happy . because somebody should be . chelsea : i do n't have time for this , nick . i know you mean well , but i 've made my decision . i need to work through this my way , not yours . nick : yeah , and one thing i seem to be really , really good at is upsetting you . chelsea , that 's not my intention . i 'm just at a loss on how to help you . chelsea : well , maybe giving me some space would help . nick : yeah . here i am again in your space . so i 'll go . but before i do , chelsea , i just want you to know that i 'm available , you know . you can throw things at me . you can yell . you can cry . whatever . because i did all those things when i lost ... christian and then sage . so the only thing i have to offer you is my experience . a miserable experience , because i know that this can be hell to get through . so if you ever need someone who 's had too much damn experience losing the people they love ... well , i 'm your guy . so , uh , yeah . thanks for hearing me out . chelsea : nick , wait . victoria : oh , my gosh . this looks great . okay , just , um , stay on your mark and say your lines right into the camera . okay . victoria : [ sighs ] okay . what do you think ? jill : i think it looks good . billy : if you 're going for obvious . victoria : take one . my brash . my sass -- billy : cut . cane : why ? why are you cutting ? billy : can you tell victoria that the wardrobe is wrong ? victoria : will somebody please tell billy that this is not a light beer commercial and we 're not doing bikinis ? billy : would you tell victoria that -- cane : all right , i 'm not telling victoria anything . i 'm not translating . we 're not in high school , okay ? victoria : [ sighs ] billy : okay . hold that right there . perfect . chin up a little bit . let 's go again . take two . my brash . my sass -- victoria : cut ! cane : why ? why ? why ? victoria : please tell billy that the bottle needs to be more prominently displayed so that the viewers are n't focused on her -- billy : look , could you tell victoria -- jill : enough of this ! we are professionals . could we please behave like professionals ? cane : thank you , jill . thank you very much . can we please roll on take three ? action . my brash . my sassy . billy : cut . okay , stop . can you please tell victoria that the color of the background is completely wrong ? victoria : can somebody please ask billy what makes him an expert on color scheme given the questionable color scheme of his house ? jill : well , now she does have a point there . billy : you loved the color of my house before you started busting my chops . jill : stop it ! the model is fine . the background is fine . and time is money . now let 's get this done . both : take four . my brash . my sassy . michael : so , just like that , you 're gon na give jack a divorce ? what happened to my girl who fights for what she wants ? phyllis : michael , i have ruined everything . there 's no coming back from this . michael : that might seem how it is right now . but the man did , um ... uh , he did melt down on television . he 's overwhelmed . i mean , the wounds are fresh . he only sees one way out . phyllis : he 's done nothing but love me . i 'm a monster . michael : you made a mistake , so you fix it . phyllis : [ scoffs ] michael : oh , no , no . do n't you shake your head at me . i lived this . i 've been on both sides , so i know what i 'm talking about . lauren and carmine . you remember that ? we healed . it took a hell of a lot of work , but we healed . and not so long ago , i broke lauren 's heart . i was cruel and i pushed her away for reasons that made sense at the time but were so horribly wrong . luckily i came to my senses . i fought for forgiveness . and now we 're stronger than ever . phyllis : you were on the same page . i am in this fight all alone . michael : then you need to remind jack of what brought you together , what makes you so great . and you do n't just own what you did . you look at it . you really look at it . you look at the how and the why of it , and then you promise jack , and you mean it from the bottom of your soul , that your future is with him and no one else . phyllis : he hears every word out of my mouth as a lie or an excuse . he is not going to listen to my promises . michael : then you make that promise over and over again until he does listen . look , jack is wrapped up in seeing what went wrong . you have to remind him of what was so right . jack : you honestly believe your actions played no part in what happened to me ? victor : [ sighs ] i assume you 're referring to marco . but you must remember that i was then defending my family and my company from the paragon virus . jack : with which i had nothing to do . victor : and i knew nothing about that at the time . i apologized for it to you . wish it had never happened . now , what does any of that have to do with your wife 's transgression with another man ?

[ scene_break ] donna : let 's think this through . if -- and that 's a big if -- eric agrees to claim paternity of this child , how are you gon na deal with taylor ? brooke : i ca n't worry about how taylor 's gon na react . i need to find an acceptable father for this child . that 's all that matters . donna : what if she demands a paternity test ? brooke : we 'll say we had one proving that eric 's the father . donna : what if she wants to see it ? brooke : i do n't know . i 'll get one somehow . donna : okay , do n't -- do n't you think that bill 's gon na figure this out the second that he hears you 're pregnant ? brooke : i will handle it . donna : and you 're gon na be able to look this man that you clearly love in the eyes and lie to him about his child , knowing how much family means to him ? brooke : i 'll tell bill what i tell everybody else -- the child is eric 's . donna : brooke , he 's gon na take one look at you and know . brooke : when he sees eric and me building a life together , planning for our child , he will let it go . donna : you 're kidding yourself , you know ? brooke : it 's the only plan there is , donna . i do n't want to katie to have another heart attack . she may not survive the next one . donna : you having bill 's baby would be a major blow . brooke : devastating . donna : you 're trying to protect our sister . brooke : who knows how much longer she has . i want her to be happy . i want her to spend the rest of her life with her child and with her husband . and i 'm gon na do everything possible to make sure that happens . [ scene_break ] taylor : hey . i brought you a little soup . steffy : uh , just leave it there . i 'm not hungry . taylor : i know , but it 's just soup . it 's not a commitment . where 's liam ? steffy : he had to go somewhere . taylor : did he say where ? steffy : no , he did n't . taylor : i , um -- i just had a word with hope . i told her to keep her distance . steffy : i do n't suppose she agreed . taylor : [ chuckles ] oh , she played it off . steffy : i ca n't think about hope right now . she seems so small in the context of things .

[ scene_break ] liam : hope . hope : i 'm so sorry . liam : thanks . yeah . me , too . hope : [ sighs ] you look exhausted . liam : [ chuckles ] yeah . i 'm drained , maybe in shock . i just finally wrapped my head around the idea of having a baby , and now ... no baby . it 's weird . it 's like we just did all this shopping -- you know , baby toys and decorating the nursery -- and now ... hope : how 's -- how 's steffy ? liam : she 's beating herself up for getting on that bike . hope : yeah , wh - when i heard that she rode her motorcycle down the aisle at your wedding , i thought ... nev -- i 'm sorry . never mind . liam : no , what ? hope : you know , that 's just steffy being steffy , i guess . she 's a risk taker . liam : well ... she knows now she should n't have done it . [ sighs ] hope : you have n't ... expressed any anger or frustration at all ? liam : why ? i mean , she feels guilty enough as it is without me piling on . hope : and where do you put what you 're feeling ? liam : i 'm still figuring that one out . [ scene_break ] brooke : must be hard for you -- being caught in the middle between katie and me and now eric . donna : i 'll always support you , even if i do n't agree with your decisions . brooke : thank you . donna : i 'll always be here for you . [ cell phone ringing ] [ beep ] brooke : bridget . bridget : hey , mom . guess what . brooke : what ? bridget : i 'm in town . brooke : you are ? bridget : oh , just a quick trip . i was wondering if you were free for dinner tonight . brooke : well , yes . yes , i 'd love to get together with you . you know what ? let 's -- let 's make it a family affair -- eric , me , you , rick . bridget : i 'd love that . brooke : let 's meet at the house . i 'll let everybody know , and i 'm looking forward to seeing you .

[ scene_break ] taylor : it 's normal to have a certain amount of guilt . steffy : why did n't it occur to me that i could wipe out ? why did n't i -- why did n't i think about that ? why did n't i think about ... protecting my child ? taylor : honey , it was an accident . steffy : [ sniffles ] taylor : look , we all have times in our lives we could have made better judgments . you did n't kill your baby . you have to find a way to come to terms with this . honey , you 've got to forgive yourself . steffy : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] liam : i really wanted that kid . did n't plan for it . when it became real , i was so on board . that baby was -- it was real to me . hope : [ sighing ] oh , liam . liam : i 'm sorry . hope : oh , no . you 're grieving . it 's okay . i know that steffy wants to get pregnant again right away . liam : who told you that ? hope : taylor . she , uh -- she came over , telling me to stay away from you . [ chuckles ] liam : uh - huh . [ chuckles ] hey , um , listen , i know that you think steffy trapped me . hope : i know that steffy said that 's not what she wanted . and -- and that that 's why she did n't tell you about the baby at first . but you were about to put a ring on my finger , and then she made her big announcement . i know that you have to be with steffy right now . you have to help her through this loss . but she 's gon na be okay . she will . liam , i am here for you . if you need anything , just tell me . i will always , always be here for you .Summarize.[/INST]liam takes steffy home . she is reluctant to go in and stares around the living room . she finally speaks and says this house is just like her .now that the baby is gone , it seems so empty . she lies on the couch . liam asks if there is anything she wants . she meekly replies only that he stay with her . she ca n't believe how one tiny baby could take up so much space and now there is nothing there . liam does n't know what to say . she tells him that he has to get it out . she deserves all the anger that he has bottled up inside against her . she was to blame . the baby is dead because of her ; it was her fault as he told her not to get on the bike . she sobs that he ought to be furious with her as she is furious with her . he replies that he is not going to beat up on her . that wo n't change things or make either one of them feel better . she screams out that she wishes she had never gone to the beach house that day and she wishes she had died instead of her baby . taylor pops in on hope and asks if she can come in and talk a minute . politely she proceeds to tell hope that liam and steffy are just getting home and it 's a rough time for both of them . she wants a little reassurance from hope that she will give them all the space they need and hope wo n't take advantage of liam 's grief . hope replies that she ought to be offended by that , but she is not . she knows where taylor is coming from . taylor also says she is asking for hope 's sake . if she thinks it is okay to pursue a married man again she might be setting herself up for more hurt . liam and steffy are planning on getting pregnant again . so it would be in hope 's best interest to keep her distance . hope is not that surprised . steffy got liam by being pregnant so she could see where steffy might want to quickly have another to keep him . taylor says hope needs to accept this . liam will stay with his wife as it should be .</s> | 410 |
vanessa : cristian , this is lola montez . cristian : you 're ray montez 's daughter ? but wait a minute , you 're too young to be this girl 's mother . vanessa : lola is my stepdaughter . lola 's mother is the reason why we need to leave colombia and get as far away from ray as possible . [ scene_break ] sarah : i do n't believe it . antonio : ray montez is right here in llanview . talia : who is ray montez ? antonio : mcbain just got back from south america . he found out that cris has been in prison there under the name of ray montez . talia : he found cris ? antonio : well , not exactly . he was gone by the time he got there . talia : i 'm sorry , honey . antonio : but we just found out that ray montez showed up in llanview about a week or so ago . he 's here on a child custody case . talia : here ? sarah : yeah , i know . it 's crazy , is n't it ? talia : wait , are we sure this is the same guy ? i mean , montez ca n't be that uncommon of a last name in colombia . sarah : come on , talia . you do n't think this is one big coincidence , do you ? antonio : look who he 's in a custody battle with . talia : dorian lord ? [ scene_break ] dorian : nora , i am so glad you are here . you can be a witness . ray montez has won custody of langston and that is because of you . you are the one who dug up that criminal . you brought him here to llanview and you probably gave him the idea of taking her out of the country to colombia . well , i 'm not going to let you get away with it . clint : dorian , if the courts have taken langston away from you and awarded custody to her uncle , that 's a legal matter . dorian : you are responsible for it ! clint : that 's ridiculous . it was the judge 's decision . there 's nothing i could do about it . nothing you can do about it either . [ scene_break ] markko : you two look serious . starr : markko , we have a lot to think about . markko : yeah , like what dr. lord is going to do to mr. buchanan now that she knows the truth . starr : yeah , did you see the look on her face when cole told her that clint buchanan was the reason your uncle showed up here ? langston : yeah , it 's the look she always gets when she 's going into cramer woman mode . markko : you should have seen starr 's mom yesterday with the principal . she was awesome . cramer women do not back off of anything . langston : no matter what the courts say , i am a cramer . starr : well , i think you should tell him that . markko : what the hell are you doing here ? langston : he 's here to take me away . [ scene_break ] john : it 'll be easier for us to talk in my office . so , uh , what 's up ? cole : i think you should answer my question first . why are you carrying around a file on my mom 's death ? john : i was just trying to tie up some loose ends . cole : what loose ends could there be , john ? my mom is dead . [ scene_break ] todd : you can go ahead and click on `` full story . `` find out the names of the men who raped you . or you can choose to let that go . plan for a future with me and this baby that we 're going to raise together . it 's up to you . todd : so that 's it then . now you know . marty : yes . now i know . todd : what are you going to do about it ? [ scene_break ] john : some cold case files got moved around when bo became commissioner again . this was one of them . that 's what i meant by loose ends . cole : oh . john : what was it you wanted to see me about ? cole : um , langston . john : starr 's friend ? cole : yeah , she 's like a sister to starr and dr. lord wants to adopt her . john : well , okay . well , beyond the obvious , what 's the problem ? cole : well , it turns out that langston has this uncle that she never knew about . the guy shows up about a week ago . he 's already gone to court and gotten custody of langston and he plans to take her away with him . john : did n't dorian hire a lawyer to fight that ? cole : are you kidding ? yeah , yeah , she went nuts . and , in fact , when the judge gave custody to langston 's uncle , she went so nuts the judge threw her in jail . she just got out , like , a little while ago . and , you know , if i had to bet on it , it would be her hands wrapped around clint buchanan 's throat right now . john : why ? what does clint have to do with this ? cole : after the custody hearing , i walked in on clint and langston 's uncle shaking hands . clint was thanking langston 's uncle for a job well done . yeah , clint is behind this whole thing . and so i told dr. lord . john : did she go nuts again ? cole : no , she was actually kind of scary quiet . but she knows that clint wants this guy to take langston away from her . john : payback for her taking b.e . away from him . cole : right . john : rich people -- man , they got too much time on their hands . is this uncle of langston 's legit ? cole : well , he 's got all these legal documents and things . and he also has photographs to prove that he 's langston 's mom 's brother . john : so what clint 's doing is unethical , but not necessarily illegal . cole : yeah , but see , i 'm not sure that dr. lord 's going to know the difference . when i told her that mr. buchanan was behind this whole thing , she told us that she would handle it . [ scene_break ] dorian : you are about to destroy an innocent child 's life . and you can stand there and be so smug about it ? and you , nora -- nora , you 're a mother . you have a heart . i mean , how can you stoop so low as to go along with such a perverted plan ? nora : i have to go get ready for work . dorian : [ scoffs ] right . i mean , how can anybody with a modicum of decency go along with this plan of yours ? what kind of a person are you ? clint : the kind of person who does n't roll over when somebody tries to destroy my family . you stole buchanan enterprises from me . did you think i was n't going to fight to get it back ? dorian : an eye for an eye ? is that what this is about ? i took your company , so now you 're going to take my daughter ? clint : pretty much . [ scene_break ] markko : i 'm not letting you take her anywhere . starr : me , either . ray : your loyalty to langston is to be admired , but i did not come here to take her from school . langston : then why did you come here ? ray : i needed to obtain the official copy of your records to send to the school you will be attending in colombia . markko : she 's not going -- langston : markko , it 's okay . you did n't need to come down here yourself to get those records . you could have had the school e - mail them or fax them . ray : that 's true , that 's true . i wanted to look around this place and see what kind of education you are taking here in llanview . i wanted to be certain you will not be disappointed with the school in colombia . and , uh , i am satisfied . starr : hmm , that 's just all that matters , right ? ray : i will be going now . langston : no , i want you to stay . markko : you do ? langston : yeah . i want you to see what my life is like here . i want you to understand . ray : i think i do . langston : no , you could n't possibly understand unless you had a daughter of your own . [ scene_break ] cristian : so let me get this straight . you want me to take you and ray 's daughter back to the states with me ? vanessa : yes , in exchange for my help . cristian : but your help does n't include me being able to call my family ? vanessa , i already told you . my brother 's a police detective . he might actually be able to help us . vanessa : yes , you 've told me all about your brother . and i got you out of that prison and i told you what i want in exchange . now when we get to america and we are far away from ray , you can call anybody you want . cristian : but ray is your father . vanessa : senor vega , lola wants to get away from her father just as much as i do . cristian : why ? vanessa : because he murdered her mother . [ scene_break ] marty : there 's only thing i can do . start to live my life again . todd : but the articles ... are you saying that you can forgive what happened ? marty : no , this is n't about forgiveness . it 's different this time . one thing i do remember about my work is that emotional scars , heartbreak , humiliation , terrible loss -- all that pain can come flooding back with the right trigger . you see a photograph , smell certain food . anything that sparks the memory can bring back the pain . something hideous happened to me at the hands of these -- these three . and i ca n't control what memories are going to come back to me , but i can choose to walk away from them now and not give them the satisfaction of hurting me again . so that 's why i did n't read the story . todd : oh , you did n't read the story . oh , but i thought you wanted to . marty : no , i , uh -- hit exit . marty : appropriate , do n't you think ? so i hope the nightmares stop now , because i 'm saying goodbye to my past . i 'm choosing the present and the future that i have with you . so the past ca n't hurt me anymore . [ scene_break ] clint : dorian , you co - opted my grandchildren 's inheritance . nash brennan -- he 's dead because you took over b.e . and it was n't even business . it was just revenge -- revenge against me because i dumped you for nora . dorian : oh , please . you got a murderer out of jail to take my daughter away from me . that 's worse than anything that i ever did to you . what -- it 's revenge of the very worst kind . clint : dorian , i 'm not out to punish you . dorian : you 've gotten a pervert to take my daughter out of the country . clint : do n't you get it yet ? you 're not going to lose langston . so long as i get b.e . back . [ scene_break ] antonio : ray montez is the only living relative of langston wilde , dorian lord 's foster daughter . apparently , the court took custody away from dorian and awarded it to montez . sarah : who , up until a week and a half ago , was in a high - security prison in colombia . antonio : yeah , but according to this , all charges were dropped . talia : i 'm confused . why was your brother using this guy 's name ? antonio : well , according to john , there was something , quote , unquote , hinky about the way montez got out of prison . maybe they needed a body with montez 's name on it and my brother was elected . charles also said that he had a witness who thought he saw carlo hesser at the prison . talia : of course he 's involved with this somehow . sarah : so we 're thinking that carlo hesser got montez out of that prison ? antonio : i do n't know , okay ? talia : we need to find out if montez had any connection to my father . sarah : more importantly , we need to find out how cristian got out of that prison and where he is now . [ scene_break ] cristian : okay , okay , this is getting really complicated . why do n't you sit ? please , sit , and , um ... let 's start from the beginning . vanessa : all you need to know is that ray montez killed the woman that gave birth to his daughter . lola : i heard it happen . cristian : i 'm sorry . vanessa : lola 's the one who called the police . cristian : and that 's why ray 's in prison ? vanessa : we put him there . lola and i testified against him at his trial . i do n't know how he got out , but i do know that he is free and he wants us both dead . [ scene_break ] ray : i have every intention of treating you as if you were my own daughter . i want what is best for you . but from what i have seen here , you will have a much better education in colombia . markko : llanview high always gets good marks . langston : and that 's just for academics . there 's a lot more to education than just what you learn in the classroom . ray : i know . i know that . that is something that concerns me deeply . starr : what -- do you have something against the debate team or the drama society ? ray : no , i am sure those things are supervised . but it seems to me that the students here pass a little too much time with activities which are unsupervised . starr : okay , let -- let me get this straight . you 're taking langston to colombia because i am pregnant ? [ scene_break ] john : what would you like me to do ? cole : i do n't know exactly . langston 's just really worried about me talking to you about this . john : why is that ? cole : well , you know , the uncle 's got custody for now . but the cops get into it -- john : we might have no choice but to see langston go with the uncle . cole : right . i 'm just afraid dr. lord is going to screw this up and langston 's going to have to go away . i mean , that would kill starr . john : i could pay dr. lord an unofficial visit and see what she 's up to . cole : that would be great , but except -- john : except what ? cole : i do n't think she should know that you 're there because of me . maybe you could just say you were there to see mrs. manning . john : blair . cole : it 's not exactly a secret . but i knew -- i knew you would find someone else sooner or later after my mom died . john : look , cole , that 's not what any of this is . cole : yeah , i like mrs. manning . you know , you should have seen her yesterday . the principal was trying to kick starr out of school until she had the baby , but mrs. manning fought her on it . she was really awesome . john : maybe we should get back to talking about dorian and langston 's uncle . cole : yeah , okay . just one more thing . john : name it . cole : just do n't forget about her , okay ? do n't forget about my mom . [ scene_break ] marty : no , i think the worst thing i can do to those men is to live my life and be happy . that 's where i am right now with you . todd : sure , good . fantastic . where the hell is janet ? marty : i do n't know . todd : how did you get down here anyway ? marty : i came down the stairs by myself . todd : wow , i did n't know you were strong enough for that . marty : yeah , i did n't , either . i had a -- another nightmare . and i woke up , and you and janet were n't here . todd : yeah , sorry about that . i should have been here . i was at the paper . marty : no , it 's all right . it 's all right , because if you had been here , i would n't have tried to go down the stairs by myself . i would n't have realized how strong i have become . and i would n't have found the computer . todd : so it was a good thing ? marty : yes . i mean , do n't get me wrong . when i woke up i was terrified . but after i saw that picture , i was -- well , i was n't as afraid . i was more angry . i 'm not going to let them ruin my life all over again . so i deleted them . yeah , strange way , i know , but i fought back to protect the life i have with you . but i , uh -- i did find one thing that i 've been missing . [ scene_break ] antonio : he looks like he , uh -- he was in prison for murdering a woman with no possibility of parole . then all of the sudden , it turns out he was falsely accused , the charges were dropped and he was released . talia : wait , look -- look at the time that he was released . look at the date . it has to be close to the time that cristian got there and was given his identity . sarah : so -- so you guys think maybe they realized that cris was innocent and they released him , too ? antonio : well , if that was the case , then they would have told john , or cristian would have gotten in touch with us by now . talia : so my father arranged for cristian to be in that prison . maybe he also fixed it so that he would be in the uniform of a murderer named ray montez . nora : excuse me ? did you say a murderer named ray montez ? sarah : yeah . talia : if that prison is as corrupt as john says it was , then someone would have had to have paid a lot of money so that montez could skate . antonio : i think the key to finding cristian is finding out who that person was . [ scene_break ] dorian : i ca n't believe this . you 're acting as if you can trade my daughter 's life for your company . clint : dorian , i can make things happen . dorian : what kind of things ? clint : once i get b.e . back , i can make ray montez go away . dorian : how can you guarantee that ? clint : people who suddenly appear can disappear just as suddenly . dorian : specifics ? clint : i can put ray montez back in prison so fast it 'll make his head spin . [ scene_break ] ray : forgive me ; i want to take langston back to colombia so that she may learn about her culture , her history . i want to show her the world because she is my sister 's daughter . it has nothing to do with your circumstances . langston : good , because starr is the best friend that i 've ever had in my life . starr and markko , cole , this place , this school -- that 's my culture , my history . this is where i figured out who i was , where i started to realize that i have my own dreams about what i want my life to be . starr and i have been through hell here . but we 've had really good times , too . i made music here . i put on my own show . i learned that hard work could pay off . markko and i had known each other our whole lives , but this is where we really saw each other for the first time . you say you want to show me the world ? this , this is my world . it 's where the people that i love are . i know what the courts decided , but the judge did n't say that you had to take me away from here , away from everything that i love . please do n't ruin my life . [ scene_break ] john : i wo n't forget your mom , cole -- never . could n't , even if i wanted to . cole : yes , i 've been thinking a lot about her lately . i guess it 's because of everything that 's happening with langston . i thought about what it would be like to have someone come out the blue and say that they were my family . my mom always said that we were the only family each other had . john : if i remember correctly , you and langston became pretty close after your mom died . cole : yeah , and awhile there i thought that she was the only one that knew what i was feeling . and she was so happy when she became part of starr 's family . you know , starr and her were like sisters . and dr. lord was so good to langston . that 's why all of this just really sucks . john : is there any chance she can -- she can be happy with this uncle ? cole : he wants to take her away with him . i mean , you should 've seen the look on her face , john , when she heard that news . it was like -- it was like she was losing her mom for the second time . and i 'm not sure that i could survive something like that . [ scene_break ] marty : when i came downstairs , i opened the front door and i felt the breeze . and it felt so wonderful just to stand there . it had been so long . all i could think about was the day i have to step outside and rejoin the world . todd : you 're not a prisoner here , you know . maybe it 's time you did get out . todd : how would you like to go for a ride ? marty : well , when ? todd : right now . come on . marty : i 'm not dressed . i 'm still in my nightgown . todd : looks like you 're dressed to me . i 'll get you a sweater if you want . come on , what do you say ? marty : let 's go . [ scene_break ] cristian : i 'm really sorry about your mom . lola : thank you . i miss her . cristian : you know , you had to be pretty brave to tell that story at the trial . lola : i had to tell the truth for my mother . i loved her very much . vanessa : but as long as ray is walking around free , lola and i are not safe . lola : please , take us back to america with you , senor vega . vanessa : lola , would you let me speak to senor vega alone for a moment ? lola : yes . i understand . vanessa : i fear for her life more than for my own . cristian : this guy would kill his own kid ? vanessa : oh , yes . and me . and you , simply because you 're here with us . cristian : what makes you think he wo n't follow you to the u.s. ? vanessa : i have considered that . i had these passports made up . they were very expensive but it 's fine work . cristian : i 'd never know they were fake . vanessa : you can make the arrangements and buy the plane tickets under those names . and ray will be expecting two people traveling together , not three . cristian : you planned this out pretty carefully . vanessa : as soon as i found out that ray was released from prison . cristian : but if ray 's as smart and as dangerous as you say he is , why has n't he found you here ? vanessa : lola and i have moved several times , and no one knows we 're here . i 've been very careful . but it 's only a matter of time before ray finds us . that 's why we need to leave here as soon as possible . the sooner that lola and i are out of the country , the sooner we will be safe . and the sooner you can get back to the people who love you back home . [ scene_break ] nora : oh , okay , so this senor montez gets pardoned out of the blue , immediately comes to llanview , and suddenly gets custody of a young girl ? it 's worse than i thought . antonio : what do you mean ? nora : what ? antonio : well , i saw the look on your face when we said the name `` ray montez . `` is there something you know ? nora : no . it 's -- langston is a good friend of cole 's , and i knew that dorian had lost custody of langston to langston 's uncle . i just had no idea that the man had been in prison for murder . talia : and miraculously released . nora : hmm . kind of smells , does n't it ? talia : yeah . nora : ca n't imagine having to give up a child , to give up langston to a man like this . well , this will be the first time i ever said this -- i feel sorry for dorian . [ scene_break ] dorian : so you want to make a deal ? clint : that 's what business is . and i 'm a businessman . and this could be the simplest of transactions . once our lawyers go through everything , the bank will set up a stock transfer . excuse me . in fact , i 've taken the liberty of drawing up a little agreement between us . dorian : oh , i see . mm . clint : do n't hurt yourself looking . there are no loopholes . and once this is signed , buchanan enterprises comes back to me . langston goes to your custody . ray montez disappears , and everybody lives happily ever after . [ scene_break ] john : sorry if seeing that file , that photo , brought back memories . cole : it 's okay . it 's stuff i live with every day . john : i know . cole : it 's just -- it 's because of the way she died . it 's -- it 's just like she disappeared . and sometimes i catch myself having these daydreams where she comes back . john : yeah . cole : every time i think about her , there 's -- there 's always this one day that keeps coming back to me . you were giving the two of us a ride somewhere . it was last fall , and all the windows were down and her hair was just blowing everywhere . and she was laughing , and i remember thinking to myself , for the first time in a while , she really looked happy . [ scene_break ] marty : where are we going ? todd : you 'll see . [ scene_break ] cole : does it -- does it bother you when i talk about my mom ? john : no . no , i like it . cole : like i said , it 's just because of all the stuff that 's going on with langston right now . john : you 've had a tough year . things any better between you and starr ? cole : i still wish she had n't decided to give up the baby . i 'm not going to lie and say i do n't want to raise my own kid , but she thinks we wo n't do a good enough job raising it , and i guess i have to learn to accept it . john : yeah , you do . cole : but i -- in the middle of all this mess with langston , i think starr and i realized that we could still be friends . john : well , that 's a good call , you know ? if , uh , if this uncle takes langston away , starr 's going to need a friend . cole : i know . john : and you never know when you might need one , too . [ scene_break ] starr : look , i hope you were listening to her . markko : yeah , you keep talking about all these things that you 're going teach her . culture , whatever . but you do n't know anything about her life up to now . i mean , yeah , it 's cool that you found her , but your sister , your own sister , wanted to raise her kids here . does n't that mean something ? starr : do you really think that you 're going to be making up for lost time ? she 's going to be so miserable ; she 's not going to be able to connect with you at all . markko : and if you cared about langston at all , the way that you keep saying you do , then you would let her stay here with the people she loves . starr : yeah , and the people who love her . langston : do you see what kind of friends i have here ? do you understand how important that is to me ? if you had any compassion at all , you would n't take me away . [ scene_break ] nora : okay , so ray montez is at best an ex - con , at worst a murderer who got himself cleared , and could be involved in cristian vega 's disappearance . antonio : we could pick him up . nora : i see no reason not to bring senor montez in for questioning . talia : maybe , um , spring carlo 's name on him , in case he is connected . antonio : no , he 's definitely connected , which is why he 's here . so why do n't we pick this man up and give him a proper llanview welcome ? nora : oh , i think i 'll go with you . i 'm very anxious to hear what this man has to say for myself . [ scene_break ] clint : let 's shake on it then . i know , it 's always difficult to admit defeat . but that 's all right . handshake was just a formality . i 'm glad that we have a deal . dorian : who says we have a deal ? clint : i assume we do . dorian : never make assumptions . this is a really complicated decision , and i 'm just going to need a little bit more time . clint : you ca n't be serious . dorian : deadly . clint : you came in here ranting about how much you love that girl and how it 's just going to destroy her to have her taken away . i offer you a way to get custody back , and you got to go somewhere and think about it ? dorian : we 're talking about a multi - billion dollar conglomerate here , clint . i can not allow my heart to make a snap decision , not under these circumstances . my goodness , i worked for a very long time to take that company away from you . and i 've known langston for a year . clint : dorian , this is not a game . that girl 's future is at stake . dorian : so we both know . clint : if you do n't return b.e . to me , i guarantee you she will end up in colombia , and you may never see her again . are you willing to let that happen , just to get back at me ? [ scene_break ] john : look , i will stop by dorian 's a little later . cole : thanks . thanks for talking about the other stuff , too . john : any time . cole : i do n't really have anyone else who knew my mom the way you did . john : i was lucky . cole : me , too . [ phone rings ] starr : cole , i 'm not supposed to use my cell phone in school . cole : yeah , i just wanted you and langston to know that john mcbain is on our side . starr : really ? cole , that 's great . thank you . you 've been such a great friend . cole : well , friends are important . starr : you know what ? i got to go . [ scene_break ] ray : it 's very clear how much you care about , uh , your friends and this place . but my mind is -- it 's made up . you -- you are very young . the time will come when you will see that this is the best thing . markko : have n't you listened to anything we said ? starr : you 're going to ruin her life . nora : ray montez ? ray : i am ray , yeah . nora : we need you to come with us please . ray : are you arresting me ? talia : no , sir . we would just like to talk with you downtown . ray : why ? nora : we have some questions for you regarding the disappearance of cristian vega . ray : who is cristian vega ?

[ scene_break ] clint : ray montez has already been declared langston 's legal guardian , so if he wants , he can have her on the next flight out of the country . dorian : tell me something i do n't know . clint : do we have a deal or not ? dorian : i already told you . i 'm going to need some time to think about this . clint : what is there to think about ? dorian : i 'll get back to you on that . so long , cowboy . clint : she 'd never give up langston . dorian : jackie , it 's dorian lord . i need to continue discussing with you that situation immediately . [ scene_break ] marty : oh , this is so wonderful . god , i feel so free . todd : yeah , me too . marty : and -- and not just -- not just free of that bedroom . free of my whole past . i am so happy in this moment . todd : yeah ? marty : yeah . it 's like a new beginning . marty : mm . [ scene_break ] john : it 's possible . | dorian goes to confront clint and tells him she knows what he did involving ray and langston . he tells her he has no intention of taking langston from her . all she has to do is sign over his company back to him . and langston can stay with her and ray will go back to south america . but she indicates that she is not going to do what he wants so easily . meanwhile , antonio , talia and sara find out that ray was in prison and charged with murder . when nora overhears them , she knows who ray is from what clint and dorian shared with her . and the three of them ( da and 2 cops ) go to find ray right when he 's talking to langston and her friends in the high school and tell him they need to take him down to the police station for questioning . cole talks to john and tells him what clint is up to . they both miss marty but have no clue that she is alive and well and with todd manning . marty decides she wants to leave the rape behind , still having no clue what todd did . and she wants to have a relationship with todd . | <s>[INST] vanessa : cristian , this is lola montez . cristian : you 're ray montez 's daughter ? but wait a minute , you 're too young to be this girl 's mother . vanessa : lola is my stepdaughter . lola 's mother is the reason why we need to leave colombia and get as far away from ray as possible . [ scene_break ] sarah : i do n't believe it . antonio : ray montez is right here in llanview . talia : who is ray montez ? antonio : mcbain just got back from south america . he found out that cris has been in prison there under the name of ray montez . talia : he found cris ? antonio : well , not exactly . he was gone by the time he got there . talia : i 'm sorry , honey . antonio : but we just found out that ray montez showed up in llanview about a week or so ago . he 's here on a child custody case . talia : here ? sarah : yeah , i know . it 's crazy , is n't it ? talia : wait , are we sure this is the same guy ? i mean , montez ca n't be that uncommon of a last name in colombia . sarah : come on , talia . you do n't think this is one big coincidence , do you ? antonio : look who he 's in a custody battle with . talia : dorian lord ? [ scene_break ] dorian : nora , i am so glad you are here . you can be a witness . ray montez has won custody of langston and that is because of you . you are the one who dug up that criminal . you brought him here to llanview and you probably gave him the idea of taking her out of the country to colombia . well , i 'm not going to let you get away with it . clint : dorian , if the courts have taken langston away from you and awarded custody to her uncle , that 's a legal matter . dorian : you are responsible for it ! clint : that 's ridiculous . it was the judge 's decision . there 's nothing i could do about it . nothing you can do about it either . [ scene_break ] markko : you two look serious . starr : markko , we have a lot to think about . markko : yeah , like what dr. lord is going to do to mr. buchanan now that she knows the truth . starr : yeah , did you see the look on her face when cole told her that clint buchanan was the reason your uncle showed up here ? langston : yeah , it 's the look she always gets when she 's going into cramer woman mode . markko : you should have seen starr 's mom yesterday with the principal . she was awesome . cramer women do not back off of anything . langston : no matter what the courts say , i am a cramer . starr : well , i think you should tell him that . markko : what the hell are you doing here ? langston : he 's here to take me away . [ scene_break ] john : it 'll be easier for us to talk in my office . so , uh , what 's up ? cole : i think you should answer my question first . why are you carrying around a file on my mom 's death ? john : i was just trying to tie up some loose ends . cole : what loose ends could there be , john ? my mom is dead . [ scene_break ] todd : you can go ahead and click on `` full story . `` find out the names of the men who raped you . or you can choose to let that go . plan for a future with me and this baby that we 're going to raise together . it 's up to you . todd : so that 's it then . now you know . marty : yes . now i know . todd : what are you going to do about it ? [ scene_break ] john : some cold case files got moved around when bo became commissioner again . this was one of them . that 's what i meant by loose ends . cole : oh . john : what was it you wanted to see me about ? cole : um , langston . john : starr 's friend ? cole : yeah , she 's like a sister to starr and dr. lord wants to adopt her . john : well , okay . well , beyond the obvious , what 's the problem ? cole : well , it turns out that langston has this uncle that she never knew about . the guy shows up about a week ago . he 's already gone to court and gotten custody of langston and he plans to take her away with him . john : did n't dorian hire a lawyer to fight that ? cole : are you kidding ? yeah , yeah , she went nuts . and , in fact , when the judge gave custody to langston 's uncle , she went so nuts the judge threw her in jail . she just got out , like , a little while ago . and , you know , if i had to bet on it , it would be her hands wrapped around clint buchanan 's throat right now . john : why ? what does clint have to do with this ? cole : after the custody hearing , i walked in on clint and langston 's uncle shaking hands . clint was thanking langston 's uncle for a job well done . yeah , clint is behind this whole thing . and so i told dr. lord . john : did she go nuts again ? cole : no , she was actually kind of scary quiet . but she knows that clint wants this guy to take langston away from her . john : payback for her taking b.e . away from him . cole : right . john : rich people -- man , they got too much time on their hands . is this uncle of langston 's legit ? cole : well , he 's got all these legal documents and things . and he also has photographs to prove that he 's langston 's mom 's brother . john : so what clint 's doing is unethical , but not necessarily illegal . cole : yeah , but see , i 'm not sure that dr. lord 's going to know the difference . when i told her that mr. buchanan was behind this whole thing , she told us that she would handle it . [ scene_break ] dorian : you are about to destroy an innocent child 's life . and you can stand there and be so smug about it ? and you , nora -- nora , you 're a mother . you have a heart . i mean , how can you stoop so low as to go along with such a perverted plan ? nora : i have to go get ready for work . dorian : [ scoffs ] right . i mean , how can anybody with a modicum of decency go along with this plan of yours ? what kind of a person are you ? clint : the kind of person who does n't roll over when somebody tries to destroy my family . you stole buchanan enterprises from me . did you think i was n't going to fight to get it back ? dorian : an eye for an eye ? is that what this is about ? i took your company , so now you 're going to take my daughter ? clint : pretty much . [ scene_break ] markko : i 'm not letting you take her anywhere . starr : me , either . ray : your loyalty to langston is to be admired , but i did not come here to take her from school . langston : then why did you come here ? ray : i needed to obtain the official copy of your records to send to the school you will be attending in colombia . markko : she 's not going -- langston : markko , it 's okay . you did n't need to come down here yourself to get those records . you could have had the school e - mail them or fax them . ray : that 's true , that 's true . i wanted to look around this place and see what kind of education you are taking here in llanview . i wanted to be certain you will not be disappointed with the school in colombia . and , uh , i am satisfied . starr : hmm , that 's just all that matters , right ? ray : i will be going now . langston : no , i want you to stay . markko : you do ? langston : yeah . i want you to see what my life is like here . i want you to understand . ray : i think i do . langston : no , you could n't possibly understand unless you had a daughter of your own . [ scene_break ] cristian : so let me get this straight . you want me to take you and ray 's daughter back to the states with me ? vanessa : yes , in exchange for my help . cristian : but your help does n't include me being able to call my family ? vanessa , i already told you . my brother 's a police detective . he might actually be able to help us . vanessa : yes , you 've told me all about your brother . and i got you out of that prison and i told you what i want in exchange . now when we get to america and we are far away from ray , you can call anybody you want . cristian : but ray is your father . vanessa : senor vega , lola wants to get away from her father just as much as i do . cristian : why ? vanessa : because he murdered her mother . [ scene_break ] marty : there 's only thing i can do . start to live my life again . todd : but the articles ... are you saying that you can forgive what happened ? marty : no , this is n't about forgiveness . it 's different this time . one thing i do remember about my work is that emotional scars , heartbreak , humiliation , terrible loss -- all that pain can come flooding back with the right trigger . you see a photograph , smell certain food . anything that sparks the memory can bring back the pain . something hideous happened to me at the hands of these -- these three . and i ca n't control what memories are going to come back to me , but i can choose to walk away from them now and not give them the satisfaction of hurting me again . so that 's why i did n't read the story . todd : oh , you did n't read the story . oh , but i thought you wanted to . marty : no , i , uh -- hit exit . marty : appropriate , do n't you think ? so i hope the nightmares stop now , because i 'm saying goodbye to my past . i 'm choosing the present and the future that i have with you . so the past ca n't hurt me anymore . [ scene_break ] clint : dorian , you co - opted my grandchildren 's inheritance . nash brennan -- he 's dead because you took over b.e . and it was n't even business . it was just revenge -- revenge against me because i dumped you for nora . dorian : oh , please . you got a murderer out of jail to take my daughter away from me . that 's worse than anything that i ever did to you . what -- it 's revenge of the very worst kind . clint : dorian , i 'm not out to punish you . dorian : you 've gotten a pervert to take my daughter out of the country . clint : do n't you get it yet ? you 're not going to lose langston . so long as i get b.e . back . [ scene_break ] antonio : ray montez is the only living relative of langston wilde , dorian lord 's foster daughter . apparently , the court took custody away from dorian and awarded it to montez . sarah : who , up until a week and a half ago , was in a high - security prison in colombia . antonio : yeah , but according to this , all charges were dropped . talia : i 'm confused . why was your brother using this guy 's name ? antonio : well , according to john , there was something , quote , unquote , hinky about the way montez got out of prison . maybe they needed a body with montez 's name on it and my brother was elected . charles also said that he had a witness who thought he saw carlo hesser at the prison . talia : of course he 's involved with this somehow . sarah : so we 're thinking that carlo hesser got montez out of that prison ? antonio : i do n't know , okay ? talia : we need to find out if montez had any connection to my father . sarah : more importantly , we need to find out how cristian got out of that prison and where he is now . [ scene_break ] cristian : okay , okay , this is getting really complicated . why do n't you sit ? please , sit , and , um ... let 's start from the beginning . vanessa : all you need to know is that ray montez killed the woman that gave birth to his daughter . lola : i heard it happen . cristian : i 'm sorry . vanessa : lola 's the one who called the police . cristian : and that 's why ray 's in prison ? vanessa : we put him there . lola and i testified against him at his trial . i do n't know how he got out , but i do know that he is free and he wants us both dead . [ scene_break ] ray : i have every intention of treating you as if you were my own daughter . i want what is best for you . but from what i have seen here , you will have a much better education in colombia . markko : llanview high always gets good marks . langston : and that 's just for academics . there 's a lot more to education than just what you learn in the classroom . ray : i know . i know that . that is something that concerns me deeply . starr : what -- do you have something against the debate team or the drama society ? ray : no , i am sure those things are supervised . but it seems to me that the students here pass a little too much time with activities which are unsupervised . starr : okay , let -- let me get this straight . you 're taking langston to colombia because i am pregnant ? [ scene_break ] john : what would you like me to do ? cole : i do n't know exactly . langston 's just really worried about me talking to you about this . john : why is that ? cole : well , you know , the uncle 's got custody for now . but the cops get into it -- john : we might have no choice but to see langston go with the uncle . cole : right . i 'm just afraid dr. lord is going to screw this up and langston 's going to have to go away . i mean , that would kill starr . john : i could pay dr. lord an unofficial visit and see what she 's up to . cole : that would be great , but except -- john : except what ? cole : i do n't think she should know that you 're there because of me . maybe you could just say you were there to see mrs. manning . john : blair . cole : it 's not exactly a secret . but i knew -- i knew you would find someone else sooner or later after my mom died . john : look , cole , that 's not what any of this is . cole : yeah , i like mrs. manning . you know , you should have seen her yesterday . the principal was trying to kick starr out of school until she had the baby , but mrs. manning fought her on it . she was really awesome . john : maybe we should get back to talking about dorian and langston 's uncle . cole : yeah , okay . just one more thing . john : name it . cole : just do n't forget about her , okay ? do n't forget about my mom . [ scene_break ] marty : no , i think the worst thing i can do to those men is to live my life and be happy . that 's where i am right now with you . todd : sure , good . fantastic . where the hell is janet ? marty : i do n't know . todd : how did you get down here anyway ? marty : i came down the stairs by myself . todd : wow , i did n't know you were strong enough for that . marty : yeah , i did n't , either . i had a -- another nightmare . and i woke up , and you and janet were n't here . todd : yeah , sorry about that . i should have been here . i was at the paper . marty : no , it 's all right . it 's all right , because if you had been here , i would n't have tried to go down the stairs by myself . i would n't have realized how strong i have become . and i would n't have found the computer . todd : so it was a good thing ? marty : yes . i mean , do n't get me wrong . when i woke up i was terrified . but after i saw that picture , i was -- well , i was n't as afraid . i was more angry . i 'm not going to let them ruin my life all over again . so i deleted them . yeah , strange way , i know , but i fought back to protect the life i have with you . but i , uh -- i did find one thing that i 've been missing . [ scene_break ] antonio : he looks like he , uh -- he was in prison for murdering a woman with no possibility of parole . then all of the sudden , it turns out he was falsely accused , the charges were dropped and he was released . talia : wait , look -- look at the time that he was released . look at the date . it has to be close to the time that cristian got there and was given his identity . sarah : so -- so you guys think maybe they realized that cris was innocent and they released him , too ? antonio : well , if that was the case , then they would have told john , or cristian would have gotten in touch with us by now . talia : so my father arranged for cristian to be in that prison . maybe he also fixed it so that he would be in the uniform of a murderer named ray montez . nora : excuse me ? did you say a murderer named ray montez ? sarah : yeah . talia : if that prison is as corrupt as john says it was , then someone would have had to have paid a lot of money so that montez could skate . antonio : i think the key to finding cristian is finding out who that person was . [ scene_break ] dorian : i ca n't believe this . you 're acting as if you can trade my daughter 's life for your company . clint : dorian , i can make things happen . dorian : what kind of things ? clint : once i get b.e . back , i can make ray montez go away . dorian : how can you guarantee that ? clint : people who suddenly appear can disappear just as suddenly . dorian : specifics ? clint : i can put ray montez back in prison so fast it 'll make his head spin . [ scene_break ] ray : forgive me ; i want to take langston back to colombia so that she may learn about her culture , her history . i want to show her the world because she is my sister 's daughter . it has nothing to do with your circumstances . langston : good , because starr is the best friend that i 've ever had in my life . starr and markko , cole , this place , this school -- that 's my culture , my history . this is where i figured out who i was , where i started to realize that i have my own dreams about what i want my life to be . starr and i have been through hell here . but we 've had really good times , too . i made music here . i put on my own show . i learned that hard work could pay off . markko and i had known each other our whole lives , but this is where we really saw each other for the first time . you say you want to show me the world ? this , this is my world . it 's where the people that i love are . i know what the courts decided , but the judge did n't say that you had to take me away from here , away from everything that i love . please do n't ruin my life . [ scene_break ] john : i wo n't forget your mom , cole -- never . could n't , even if i wanted to . cole : yes , i 've been thinking a lot about her lately . i guess it 's because of everything that 's happening with langston . i thought about what it would be like to have someone come out the blue and say that they were my family . my mom always said that we were the only family each other had . john : if i remember correctly , you and langston became pretty close after your mom died . cole : yeah , and awhile there i thought that she was the only one that knew what i was feeling . and she was so happy when she became part of starr 's family . you know , starr and her were like sisters . and dr. lord was so good to langston . that 's why all of this just really sucks . john : is there any chance she can -- she can be happy with this uncle ? cole : he wants to take her away with him . i mean , you should 've seen the look on her face , john , when she heard that news . it was like -- it was like she was losing her mom for the second time . and i 'm not sure that i could survive something like that . [ scene_break ] marty : when i came downstairs , i opened the front door and i felt the breeze . and it felt so wonderful just to stand there . it had been so long . all i could think about was the day i have to step outside and rejoin the world . todd : you 're not a prisoner here , you know . maybe it 's time you did get out . todd : how would you like to go for a ride ? marty : well , when ? todd : right now . come on . marty : i 'm not dressed . i 'm still in my nightgown . todd : looks like you 're dressed to me . i 'll get you a sweater if you want . come on , what do you say ? marty : let 's go . [ scene_break ] cristian : i 'm really sorry about your mom . lola : thank you . i miss her . cristian : you know , you had to be pretty brave to tell that story at the trial . lola : i had to tell the truth for my mother . i loved her very much . vanessa : but as long as ray is walking around free , lola and i are not safe . lola : please , take us back to america with you , senor vega . vanessa : lola , would you let me speak to senor vega alone for a moment ? lola : yes . i understand . vanessa : i fear for her life more than for my own . cristian : this guy would kill his own kid ? vanessa : oh , yes . and me . and you , simply because you 're here with us . cristian : what makes you think he wo n't follow you to the u.s. ? vanessa : i have considered that . i had these passports made up . they were very expensive but it 's fine work . cristian : i 'd never know they were fake . vanessa : you can make the arrangements and buy the plane tickets under those names . and ray will be expecting two people traveling together , not three . cristian : you planned this out pretty carefully . vanessa : as soon as i found out that ray was released from prison . cristian : but if ray 's as smart and as dangerous as you say he is , why has n't he found you here ? vanessa : lola and i have moved several times , and no one knows we 're here . i 've been very careful . but it 's only a matter of time before ray finds us . that 's why we need to leave here as soon as possible . the sooner that lola and i are out of the country , the sooner we will be safe . and the sooner you can get back to the people who love you back home . [ scene_break ] nora : oh , okay , so this senor montez gets pardoned out of the blue , immediately comes to llanview , and suddenly gets custody of a young girl ? it 's worse than i thought . antonio : what do you mean ? nora : what ? antonio : well , i saw the look on your face when we said the name `` ray montez . `` is there something you know ? nora : no . it 's -- langston is a good friend of cole 's , and i knew that dorian had lost custody of langston to langston 's uncle . i just had no idea that the man had been in prison for murder . talia : and miraculously released . nora : hmm . kind of smells , does n't it ? talia : yeah . nora : ca n't imagine having to give up a child , to give up langston to a man like this . well , this will be the first time i ever said this -- i feel sorry for dorian . [ scene_break ] dorian : so you want to make a deal ? clint : that 's what business is . and i 'm a businessman . and this could be the simplest of transactions . once our lawyers go through everything , the bank will set up a stock transfer . excuse me . in fact , i 've taken the liberty of drawing up a little agreement between us . dorian : oh , i see . mm . clint : do n't hurt yourself looking . there are no loopholes . and once this is signed , buchanan enterprises comes back to me . langston goes to your custody . ray montez disappears , and everybody lives happily ever after . [ scene_break ] john : sorry if seeing that file , that photo , brought back memories . cole : it 's okay . it 's stuff i live with every day . john : i know . cole : it 's just -- it 's because of the way she died . it 's -- it 's just like she disappeared . and sometimes i catch myself having these daydreams where she comes back . john : yeah . cole : every time i think about her , there 's -- there 's always this one day that keeps coming back to me . you were giving the two of us a ride somewhere . it was last fall , and all the windows were down and her hair was just blowing everywhere . and she was laughing , and i remember thinking to myself , for the first time in a while , she really looked happy .

[ sighs ] you know why i did that . alexis : i do n't know what i know . i just know how i felt that night on the docks . and you ca n't change that . you were gon na do to me what someone did to my mother . julian : i know . i know . i -- [ sighs ] i do n't deserve what i 'm asking you to do , but i promise you , now that olivia 's out of the picture , i am never gon na hurt you again . alexis : this is n't just about olivia forcing you to do what you did . it 's about what you did before that because you chose to , because you wanted to . julian : alexis , it was never my intention to hurt you . you know that . alexis : was it your intention to hurt duke and carlos ? julian : look , i told you , i 'm -- i 'm gon na look for a new line of work . alexis : do n't ever ... [ sighs heavily ] ... say those words again . because those words mean nothing . there are two sides to you . there are . there are two sides . one ... i believe loves me and would do anything for me . and then there 's another side to you that would do whatever is necessary to protect yourself . julian : well , for the record , both those men would stand by your side . alexis : any kind of life with -- with you is accepting the violence that you traded in . it 's only a matter of time before me or someone else that i love gets hurt again . and i wo n't do it . i wo n't do it . i wo n't put my kids through it . i wo n't . i wo n't . julian : so , you 're just gon na throw this all away ? no , come on . alexis , i mean , it was n't always bad , was it ? alexis : no , it was n't . falling in love with you and marrying you was the happiest time in my life . but it was built on the hope that you would change ... that the better side of you would win . julian : and what about tonight ? alexis : i just wanted to remem -- [ cries ] ... remember . julian : alexis ... it can always be like that . i promise you . alexis : you ca n't promise me that . which is why we do n't have a future together . we have a past , and i 'll never regret that , because it gave me sam . but what i need now is closure . i need that , and i need you to give it to me . julian : [ sighs ] alexis : tonight is our ending . let 's just make it count .

[ hooper sighs ] sam : julian was desperate to get out of port charles if he hired a boat . and the fact that he did n't show up for it means that someone probably id 'd him . that someone is probably my mother . jason : okay . listen to me . your mom seems to think that julian is the victim in all this , so if she went somewhere with him , she probably went willingly . sam : i know . that 's what worries me . [ scene_break ] julian : `` goodbye `` ? alexis : i know all too well why you need to disappear , but i wo n't be going with you . julian : well , why not ? i mean , we love each other . and nothing 's ever gon na change that . alexis : you held a knife to my throat . julian : [ sighs ] look , alexis , you know , that 's always gon na be the biggest regret of my life . but ... [ sighs ] you know why i did that . alexis : i do n't know what i know . i just know how i felt that night on the docks . and you ca n't change that . you were gon na do to me what someone did to my mother . julian : i know . i know . i -- [ sighs ] i do n't deserve what i 'm asking you to do , but i promise you , now that olivia 's out of the picture , i am never gon na hurt you again . alexis : this is n't just about olivia forcing you to do what you did . it 's about what you did before that because you chose to , because you wanted to . julian : alexis , it was never my intention to hurt you . you know that . alexis : was it your intention to hurt duke and carlos ? julian : look , i told you , i 'm -- i 'm gon na look for a new line of work . alexis : do n't ever ... [ sighs heavily ] ... say those words again . because those words mean nothing . there are two sides to you . there are . there are two sides . one ... i believe loves me and would do anything for me . and then there 's another side to you that would do whatever is necessary to protect yourself . julian : well , for the record , both those men would stand by your side . alexis : any kind of life with -- with you is accepting the violence that you traded in . it 's only a matter of time before me or someone else that i love gets hurt again . and i wo n't do it . i wo n't do it . i wo n't put my kids through it . i wo n't . i wo n't . julian : so , you 're just gon na throw this all away ? no , come on . alexis , i mean , it was n't always bad , was it ? alexis : no , it was n't . falling in love with you and marrying you was the happiest time in my life . but it was built on the hope that you would change ... that the better side of you would win . julian : and what about tonight ? alexis : i just wanted to remem -- [ cries ] ... remember . julian : alexis ... it can always be like that . i promise you . alexis : you ca n't promise me that . which is why we do n't have a future together . we have a past , and i 'll never regret that , because it gave me sam . but what i need now is closure . i need that , and i need you to give it to me . julian : [ sighs ] alexis : tonight is our ending . let 's just make it count .

[ scene_break ] opal : uh - huh . well , thank you very much . i saw the most divine little hat at lacey 's the other day . i think the minute i leave here , i 'm just going to skedaddle right over there and snatch it up . palmer : is that how you spend my hard - earned money , on some frivolous nonsense for your head ? give me that check back . opal : why do n't you just shrivel up and fly off somewhere . honestly , myrt , why is it that men think they have to just control every last little thing ? myrtle : darling , you are too old not to know the answer .

[ scene_break ] di : you have to go get the letter . you have to accept i ca n't give you what you want , not face to face . tad : why ? because you think it 's going to tear us apart ? you think it 's going to tear apart whatever trust i 've got for you ? dixie , i 'm sorry , but after what you 've done to me over the last few months , it 's not about trust anymore . i just want to be with you . what could possibly be so awful that you and i ca n't get through it together ? we 've lost a child . we 've survived your death . we 've had to come to terms with a year in prison . i doubt very much there 's anything you could throw at me right now that i could n't handle . di : ok , i 've -- i 've told a lot of lies since i 've been back to pine valley . and i 've withheld a lot from you . but you have to know , despite it all , i love you , tad . i really , truly love you . tad : see , there you go , acting like -- it 's like you 're doing it again , like it 's a done deal , like everything is going to end the minute i open the stupid letter . di : it could .

[ scene_break ] julia : now i know why they call you the dragon . you 're full of hot air . garret : i 'm dead serious . i want to get to know you better . julia : you single - handedly smashed my world to bits . when you took noah , you took my whole reason for breathing . i hate you . so if you seriously think that you have a chance of seducing me -- you actually think you can get me ? well , you are totally and utterly demented . you do n't have a chance in hell ! you hear me ? not a chance in hell !

jack : mother , you are free to make your own choices , but this -- this is beyond the pale . ashley : look , if you find the man valuable , by all means reward him with a salary or a bonus , but your estate ? dina : careful , you two . you 're beginning to sound jealous . ashley : that 's not true . we 're concerned about you . it does n't seem like you 're making the appropriate choices . dina : i know exactly what i 'm worth and exactly what i 'm giving graham . and for him to be able to stand by me always feels like a bargain . and he 's given up a lot to be with me . jack : oh , please ! what has graham given up ? what company in the world would give graham bloodworth a deal this sweet ? stay at a company for a little over a year , get in good with the boss who just happens to be a rich widow , and -- boom ! -- your fortunes soar . dina : you call it a deal ... ashley : actually , that was your word , mother . you said `` graham and i have a deal , `` remember ? dina : i prefer to call it peace of mind . and you ca n't put a price tag on that . jack : graham certainly has . dina : i did n't tell you this because i had to . i chose to because i wanted to get things out in the open . jack : and you assume he 's going to come through for you , that he 's going to be your steadfast companion no matter what ? dina : graham will be by my side until i no longer need him or anyone else . it 's a lifetime job . ashley : your lifetime . all you 've done is make him hope it 's a short one . gloria : well , hello , there . graham : gloria . gloria : are you here to see jack ? i can buzz him , let him know you 're here . graham : jack 's aware of that . thank you . but i 'd much rather be out here than in there . gloria : [ chuckling ] yeah . me , too . reed : listen , i 've just got to ask . did i say something wrong ? mattie : no . not at all . i love being made fun of for trying to show some initiative and get ahead . reed : oh , so that 's why you 're doing it . i thought it was so you did n't have to deal with your idiot brother , but clearly my bad . mattie : i should get back to this . reed : so , you sure you 're not up for a movie ? mattie : not if it means falling behind . reed : come on . it 's summer . i mean , you ca n't do math work all the time . mattie : what are you doing ? reed : jotting down song ideas . what can i say ? you inspire me . mattie : seriously ? reed : mm - hmm . i 'm starting with the titles . mattie : give me that . `` calculus girl . `` `` why does mattie hate movies so much ? `` `` lighten up , mattie . `` reed : i 'm thinking like a surfer vibe for that last one , you know ? mattie : maybe a movie would n't be so bad . reed : that 's an excellent choice . put that brain of yours in a jar for a minute . mattie : i 'm sorry for being such a pain . i 'm just not used to this ... guys asking me out . reed : well , we 're gon na have to change that . charlie : hey , is this loser bothering you ? mattie : what ? no . charlie , come off it . charlie : well , 'cause he 's sure bothering me . victoria : whether or not the baby is cane 's , he 's got a lot to sort out with his family . michael : wait a minute . he does n't think the baby 's his ? victoria : he 's not convinced . anyway , the damage is done . cane stuck by his lie because he thought he could get away with it , and now i 'm gon na end up paying . a lot . michael : before i call leslie , we should talk numbers . they 'll smell blood , but i 'm hoping i can keep things reasonable . victoria : as long as juliet agrees to sign a non - disclosure agreement . that 's key . michael : look at you . you 've just been handed a major setback . look how calm you are . victoria : on the outside . trust me , on the inside , i am raging . cane : i , um ... i spoke to victoria . she 's settling the case . lily : there 's no other option . you put her in a box . cane : yeah , i put us all in a box , i know that . are you okay ? lily : my dad was here . cane : did you , um ... did you tell him ? lily : you 're lucky he left already . cane : sweetheart , i know i have a lot to apologize for , and , uh ... but on the drive over , all i could think about is if i still have a marriage . lily : that 's your question ? `` do i have a marriage ? `` i have a question . why did you have to sleep with that woman ? cane : i did n't plan for it to happen . i was wasted . lily : do you think that makes it any better ? cane : no , it does n't make it any better , but i do n't remember doing it . lily : how do you think that makes me feel ? god , i just -- i keep picturing you with her . cane : i am -- i am so sorry . i never meant to cheat on you , sweetheart . lily : [ scoffs ] but you did . and now we have to deal with the consequences . cane : i will have juliet take a dna test , and i 'll do one , as well . lily : oh , my god . time after time , you lied . you were covering it up . cane : it was one - time mistake , and i told you already , i just did n't want to hurt you . and then it just spun out of control , and i was just helpless to stop it . lily : no , you were n't helpless . you were weak . there 's a difference . cane : sweetie , listen ... lily : listen , i know that i cheated on you in the past . i know that i took us for granted , and that was wrong . but what you did was so much worse . you let me stand up for you and defend you to people and say , `` no ! my husband would never do that ! `` cane : i 'm sorry . lily : and then you let me find out the truth in the worst possible way -- in public ! where that `` one - time mistake `` hands me a piece of paper that says that you got her pregnant . do you know how humiliating that is ? cane : i do . lily : did you do this to get back at me for joe clark ? cane : no , no , no . no , i forgave you for that . we put that behind us and we fixed us . we fixed us . we did . i 'm sorry . lily : and now you 're tearing us apart all over again . charlie : what are these , jokes ? reed : oh , wow ! he can read ! no , actually , they 're song titles . you know what , i think i actually just came up with another one . `` jocks with rocks for brains . `` charlie : you know , you 're the smartest person i know . what do you see in this dweeb ? mattie : will you both just chill ? how can you hate someone you barely know ? charlie : it 's pretty easy . reed : yeah , the feeling 's mutual , dude . [ exhales sharply ] i will call you later about that movie , and , um , take it easy , sport . charlie : tell me you 're not thinking of going out with that clown . mattie : hey , i , uh , actually have an idea . how about we double and you can bring zoey ? charlie : funny . `` calculus girl ? `` `` why does mattie hate movies so much ? `` mattie : give me that . hilary : i 'm sorry that you had to find out that way . devon : there 's still a chance that cane 's not the father . hilary : even if that 's true , where does -- where does it leave the case ? devon : i do n't care about the case . it 's lily that i 'm worried about . hilary : i know . and i 'm sorry to say that your worry is justified . why would juliet lie when it is so easy to prove a child 's paternity these days ? devon : i do n't know . but i know i warned cane not to hurt my sister , and he promised me that he would n't , and here we are now . and when the trust is broken like it is , how is a marriage supposed to last ? the twins are gon na be crushed when they find out 'cause this is n't something you could exactly keep a secret . and it 's hard to feel any sympathy for cane , as reckless as he 's been acting , and now when people hear about this , they 'll assume that the sexual harassment part is true , even if it 's not , and then he 'll be stuck with that label for the rest of his life . there 's no way you can change that . tessa : nikki 's been good to me , mr. newman , but it 's not like we 're besties . she 's my boss , you know . i ca n't think of anything she 'd say that she would n't want you to hear . victor : mm - hmm . i 'm just trying to figure out what motivated her sudden departure , you know ? but if she did n't confide in you , there 's nothing you can say , is there ? tessa : yeah , well , sorry i could n't be help . victor : tessa ... let 's talk about the upcoming concert . i would like you to open . tessa : me ? victor : yeah . you . i just know that she is very , very trepidatious about carrying the concert all by herself . if you were to open for her , that would alleviate the pressure . tessa : yeah . that makes sense . i would love to perform . thank you for asking . victor : i appreciate that . and , by the way , if you hear anything from nikki , you let me know , all right ? tessa : yeah . victor : good . tessa : oh , thank god you 're home . mariah : why ? what 's wrong ? tessa : victor newman summoned me to the club to grill me about nikki -- where she went and if she said anything to me , which she did n't . mariah : you told victor that ? tessa : yeah . mariah : did he believe you ? tessa : seems like it , but it 's victor , so who knows ? i mean , the guy 's like a walking , talking mind game . oh ! and get this -- he asked me to open up for nikki at the concert so she would n't feel overburdened . mariah : and you said yes , right ? tessa : well , i hoped it would be cool with devon , but i 'm contract , so ... mariah : no , it -- it 's a charity event . he 'll be fine with it . tessa : good . i just -- i do n't know with victor . i mean , he 's just so hard to read and so scary ! i just -- maybe he 's tricking me into letting my guard down or something . mariah : well , you have a right to be cautious . tessa : is that a warning ? mariah : i have my own bizarre history with the guy . do you remember when i told you i came to town as cassie 's `` ghost ? `` well , victor was the man pulling the strings . and that 's all the information you 're gon na get because i would n't want you thinking less of me . tessa : [ scoffs ] well , no , that would n't happen . you 've been a good friend to me . mariah : right back at you . anyway , look , nikki trusts you . that 's what important , and do n't let victor weird you out . tessa : [ sighs ] well , thank you for the safe space to freak out . mariah : no problem . do you have to run off ? because i have the sequel to that god - awful movie we watched the other day ready to go . tessa : ooh , well , cue it up ! mariah : yes ! tessa : ca n't be any worse than the original . mariah : there 's only one way to find out . i could use some company tonight . tessa : what about devon ? mariah : i left him a message , but he 's busy . devon : hey . i know i do n't have any right to ask you this . hilary : ask . devon : would you do me a favor and keep this whole mess off the air ? hilary : for lily 's sake ? devon : well , yeah . i mean , i know that nothing 's keeping you from taking what you know and sensationalizing it . hilary : yeah , nothing ... except i know what the fallout would be . devon : so does that mean you 'll leave it alone ? hilary : devon , you and i , we 've been going ' round and ' round about what is appropriate for me to report on , okay ? and i 'm proud of this show . i 'm not gon na report on a story solely for the purpose of going after your sister , okay ? i am better than that . devon : well , that 's not exactly a promise . hilary : how can i reassure you ? devon : i do n't know . it 's hard for me to think that you 'd do anything at all to help lily , but i would really appreciate if you did not make this more painful and difficult than it already is for her . you know ? if you cared about me at all ... hilary : devon ... i 've always cared . that 's never stopped . never will . devon : well , thank you . cane : i do n't know how to put into words how sorry i am and how low i feel , but i will do whatever you want me to do , and i will say whatever you want me to say . lily : so , what , now it 's on me to fix this for you ? cane : no . no . i 'm not saying that to you . lily : you mess up , and you want me to tell you how to make me feel better ? cane , i do n't know ! i do n't know because you did n't just have a one - night stand . you may have fathered a child . so i do n't know how to fix this . cane : i love you . i love you , and from now on out , every single thing will start with that one simple truth , my love . i love you . lily : i really wish you had remembered that in tokyo . cane : i know what i did was unforgivable , but just tell me what to do and i will do it . i will make it up to you . lily : this is n't just about me . do n't you get that ? we have a family ! cane : i know we have a family . lily : what about mattie and charlie ? how are they gon na feel about what you 've done ? cane : we ca n't tell them until the paternity test comes back . we ca n't do that . lily : oh , so , you just want to lie to them ? how about you tell me how to do that 'cause you 're so good at it . cane : i do n't want to lie to them . i just do n't want to hurt them . lily : that 's been your logic all along , has n't it ? right ? just do n't tell anyone . why hurt poor , stupid lily with the truth ? cane : come on . come on . do n't do this . lily : look how far that 's gotten us . cane : please do n't do this . [ door opens ] mattie : mom ? dad ? charlie : yeah . what 's wrong ? dina : i 'd be happy to tell my lawyers to forward each of you a copy of my will . jack : that is not what we want , and you know it . dina : i understand that you both are surprised and upset . well , maybe it 's because you were thinking i would be more generous when the time came . jack : we do n't need your money , mother . ashley : dina , maybe we 'll never be able to get past all the things that have caused us from being close , but it does n't mean that jack and i do n't care about you . and we ca n't help but feel concerned when it appears that you 're being taken advantage of . dina : well , how can that be the case when i know exactly what i 'm doing ? this is a decision i made . so live with it . i intend to happily . gloria : see ? every time i click there , it jumped to a different screen entirely instead of the function that i want to do . it 's very frustrating . graham : press f5 first . gloria : f5 . [ keyboard clicks ] gloria : [ gasps ] the man 's a genius ! graham : i would n't go that far . gloria : oh , that cologne of yours . what are you wearing ? it 's intoxicating . [ sniffs ] graham : it 's dare by brash & sassy ! gloria : oh , shh ! that 's a swear word around here . graham : well , we have a secret now . first of a few , i hope . ashley : graham , are we done here ? graham : uh , yes . we 're finished . dina : you ready to go ? graham : yes . dina : thank you . graham : until next time . jack : well , i for one did not see that coming . ashley : i need some air . or a drink . preferably both . jack : hey , ash . ash ! we need to talk about this ! ashley : what 's there to talk about , jack ? you heard dina . she made her decision . we just have to live with it . michael : so , this open mic night -- they have it every week ? victoria : yeah , it was noah 's brainstorm , and nick told him to run with it , and now it 's one of the underground 's biggest events . michael : ah ! reed : you should come down sometime . michael : lauren showed me a video of one of your performances . you have a great rapport with your audience . reed : you really think so ? michael : yeah , absolutely . reed : well , thank you . victoria : it 's good practice performing in front of a crowd . reed : yeah . michael : well , i have to be sure to make it down there one of these weeks . reed : well , let me know when you plan on it , and i 'll be sure to save you a good seat . michael : all right . sounds like a plan . all right , um , i will get right on that matter we discussed . victoria : yeah . please let me know how it goes . michael : you 'll be the first . victoria : thanks , michael . [ sighs ] reed : um , mom , is -- is something going on ? victoria : huh ? oh , just work stuff , honey . i 'd rather hear about how things are going with you . come on . come in here . how are things going ? reed : uh , i was just wondering if i could have a little extra cash this week . like an advance on my allowance . victoria : oh ! do you need some , uh , new guitar strings , or something ? reed : not exactly . victoria : ohh . why do i get the feeling that maybe you have a date ? reed : yeah , i might . victoria : do i know her ? reed : oh , she 's just a girl i know from around town . victoria : mm - hmm , does she have a name , or ... ? reed : you probably would n't know her . she goes to a different school . victoria : oh ! walnut grove ! yeah , this is the girl that you mentioned before . tell me about her , baby . i want to hear all about it . reed : um , you know , you can forget about the money . i mean ... i 'll figure something out . i see you got a lot on your mind . victoria : no , no , no . here . take this . reed : no , mom . are you sure ? victoria : you have so many good things going on in your life right now . reed : yeah , but you do n't . victoria : [ clicks tongue ] it 's just -- you know that lawsuit that i was dealing with ? well , i -- i decided to settle . reed : what ? but you sounded so determined to fight it . victoria : yeah , well , things changed . reed : how ? victoria : well , i guess the whole fiasco started when one of my employees lied to me , and then everything just spiraled out of control from there . reed : so , you pay a bunch of money to the person who 's suing you . what happens to the one who lied to you in the first place ? victoria : that 's what i have to decide . reed : well , i guess that 's what being the boss is all about . victoria : that 's right . sometimes you have to do things that you hate . but they 're unavoidable . lily : everything 's fine . cane : yeah . lily : you know , why do n't you guys go get washed up for dinner ? mattie : something 's going on . charlie : yeah , is this about the lawsuit ? lily : uh , yes . there 's news . uh , victoria is settling the case . charlie : so that 's good , right ? dad can stop worrying . cane : yeah , that 's right . yeah . mattie : but settling means that the company still needs to pay this woman off . the one that said those awful things about dad . lily : yeah , but that does n't mean that those accusations are true . it 's just easier than going to court . charlie : yeah , so everyone can move on , right ? i mean , that 's a good thing . over and done with . cane : that 's the idea , yeah . mattie : then why are n't you happier ? tessa : this is not very good . mariah : i know . [ knocks on door ] mariah : oh ! mariah : hey ! i did n't think i 'd see you tonight . mwah ! devon : am i , uh , interrupting something ? mariah : [ chuckles ] tessa : well , we were gon na watch this , but if the , uh , whole movie is as bad as the first 20 minutes , i 'm happy to have you guys have your time together . devon : please , please , do n't leave on my account . tessa : no , no . it 's all right . i got to work on some new songs , anyway , before we get into the studio . devon : well , if that 's the case , i ca n't argue with you . tessa : all right , well , see ya . uh , thanks for everything . we 'll have to do this another time . mariah : oh , of course . totally . tessa : bye , devon . devon : see ya . mariah : so , would you like some wine or popcorn ? devon : no , i 'm okay . thank you , though . mariah : so , what 'd you do tonight ? you saw jill , right ? devon : yeah , i did , and then i saw hilary . mariah : oh ! uh , what about ? devon : about lily and cane . um ... it 's not good news . cane : you know , it 's just that this has been hard on us , and , um , your mum and i are now trying to figure out what all this means , right ? lily : yeah , we just have some , you know , lingering issues . this sort of thing does n't just go away magically when you snap your fingers . charlie : yeah , sure , but all the legal stuff 's over . so , i mean , that 's the important part . that 's good . i -- i got to go change . call me when dinner 's ready . cane : yeah , okay . mattie : what kind of lingering issues ? lily : mattie , it 's nothing you have to worry about . cane : yeah , it 's -- mattie : is work okay ? are you gon na lose your jobs ? lily : work 's fine , you know ? just put it out of your head . victor : well , well , well . how are you this evening ? ashley : next question . victor : uh - oh . waiting for someone ? ashley : no . victor : huh . ashley : i 'm drinking alone . my mother drives me to that sometimes . victor : really ? what did dina mergeron do now ? ashley : do you remember that companion you met , graham bloodworth ? victor : ohh . the opportunist . ashley : yes . well , it turns out he 's better than any of us even thought . gloria : here 's that report you were asking about earlier . jack : thanks . gloria : so , are you ever gon na tell me ? jack : tell you what ? gloria : what that was all about before . jack : [ sighs ] gloria . are you still interested in graham ? gloria : when did i ever say that ? jack : the other day . you said you were wrong , that he was n't as bad as we all thought . gloria : yeah , well , it 's true . but do n't you dare egg me on to seduce him . if i decide to pursue something , my motives will be pure ... ish . jack : could i just get a simple answer to a simple question here ? what are your feelings for graham ? gloria : mildly interested . jack : even if he 's filthy - rich ? gloria : excuse me ? jack : graham is in line for an outlandishly extravagant bequeath , courtesy of my mother . gloria : how extravagant are we talking about ? jack : almost all of her estate . gloria : my , my , my . but surely you 're not gon na stand by and let dina do this . jack : it 's her money . it 's her life . as she 's fond of saying , she can do whatever the hell she wants . gloria : huh . [ door closes ] victor : that 's odd . i mean , i would never have assumed that dina mergeron was someone who could be hoodwinked so easily . ashley : nor would i . victor : and no explanation ? ashley : no , she -- she told us that she wanted jack and i to know where things stand , and she was hoping it would end our suspicions about graham . victor : uh - huh . but by leaving the bulk of her estate to him ... ashley : it 's difficult to find the logic in that one . victor : certainly is . does he treat he well , or what ? ashley : he seems to . i had my doubts , but dina has assured me that they 're unfounded . and you know that jack and i never expected anything from her estate . victor : you just do n't want her to be taken advantage of . ashley : exactly . victor : ah . ashley : and she made it clear that this was her decision , that graham did n't force her into it at all . victor : and you do n't believe her ? ashley : i do n't have any choice but to believe her . victor : ah . ashley : obviously jack 's beside himself . clearly you could care less about that . victor : he and i had a little run - in yesterday . i 'm sure he told you all about it . ashley : how 's the concert coming ? i have n't seen nikki around in a long time . victor : she took off for a while just to get ready for the concert . she 's very excited . ashley : mm . is that true ? victor : yeah . why do n't we drink to her success ? ashley : of course . victor : cheers . cane : you know , you should be glad you 're in high school and you do n't have to deal with this stuff yet . mattie : dad , that 's so patronizing . lily : no , he did n't mean it to be . mattie : i 'm not a little kid anymore , you know ? lily : honey , we know that . cane : aww , look at this . our little girl 's all grown up . mattie : so you can tell me what 's going on with my own family . i 'm not the only one , you know . even my lunkhead brother 's noticed . something 's going on with you two , and you 're not very good at hiding it . lily : it 's just , you know , things that married couples go through sometimes . mattie : like what they call a rough patch ? cane : that 's it . it 's a rough patch . mattie : okay , well , just so you know , if you guys ever decide that we 're mature enough , charlie and i are ready to listen . who knows ? maybe even your weird teenagers could help . cane : okay , um , how about -- mattie : i know . go wash up . cane : go and wash up . thank you very much . lily : things will be ready soon . cane : thank you for not saying anything . lily : we ca n't keep lying to them forever . cane : i know . lily : especially if juliet agrees to the test . cane : i know . i just do n't know how to tell them that their dad messed up . mariah : juliet 's pregnant ? devon : yeah . and that obviously stays between us , but cane has been lying this whole time about sleeping with her . mariah : i am just amazed that hilary has n't called in the whole staff and made this tomorrow 's big story . devon : well , i asked her to sit on it . mariah : [ laughs ] there 's no way that 's happening . devon : i think she 's actually gon na listen to me 'cause i kind of begged her not to mess with my sister on this one . mariah : look , i hope that you got through to your ex , but this is hilary we 're talking about . she despises lily . devon : i understand , but , you know , there 's -- there 's two teenagers at stake here . they need both their parents . mariah : please tell me you do n't think that family has nothing to worry about . devon : well , look , no one knows hilary better than i do , and even though she 's unpredictable and headstrong , i really do believe that she understands what 's at stake with all this . i mean , the whole thing started off as an exposé on sexual harassment at the workplace , and it 's gotten very personal now . mariah : you actually believe her . devon : i believe that she cares about my opinion , especially my opinion of her . mariah : yeah . i guess so . devon : hey . this whole thing is really about lily and cane , all right ? we are spending way too much time talking about my ex . mariah : [ inhales sharply ] right . right . anyway , i -- i should n't be talking . i 'm biased . devon : it 's all right . juliet : when i met him for breakfast , he had grade - a # 1 hangover . his mind was a total fog . i 'm not sure how much he even remembered , which was fine with me because it meant nothing . i have zero interest in cane . zero . hilary : but after you had sex , you got a job at brash & sassy ! did sleeping with him have anything to do with that ? juliet : no . that is an awful thing to suggest . [ knocking rapidly ] juliet : it 's over ! i won ! hilary : uh , whoa , whoa . slow down . come in , come in . tell me what happened . juliet : i talked to leslie . victoria 's lawyer just called . they 're settling . can you believe it ? my money problems are over , thanks to you .

[ clears throat ] i was afraid of that . what made him change his story now , of all times ? victoria : he had no choice . juliet 's pregnant . michael : oh . wow . his poor family . reed : hey ! mattie ! um , i was waiting to hear back from you . are we still on for that movie ? calculus homework , huh ? in june ? oh , man , did you flunk and have to take summer school ? that 's awful . you 're like the last person i would think would flunk . mattie : i did n't flunk . i 'm taking summer classes to get ahead . junior year 's gon na be intense , prepping for sats and applying for scholarships ... reed : you volunteered for summer school ? what , are you crazy ? mattie : crazy - busy , actually . way too busy to waste time going to the movies . jack : you 've changed your will to leave everything to him ? dina : jack , dear , it 's not polite to talk about graham as if he 's not in the room . and i 'm not giving him everything . just the bulk of my estate . ashley : `` just . `` jack : so this is his reward for being loyal ? wow , you must be good at what you do . graham : i 'm getting in the way here . perhaps it 's best if i wait outside . jack : oh , trust me , it wo n't stop me from saying what i want to say if you 're sitting here . dina : yes , i think it 's a good idea . well , go ahead . let me have it . but i knew exactly what i was doing when i signed that will . it represents my final wishes . and even though i know i 'm going to be around for quite some time , you better respect them . victor : nikki , you ca n't avoid me forever , all right ? so kindly call me back . tessa : sorry it took me so long to get here . victor : that 's all right . please , have a seat . tessa : so . why 'd you want to see me ? victor : nikki left a note . before she took off to who knows where saying that she needed to `` clear her head . `` do you know what that is about ? tessa : no . i did n't see her before she took off , and even then , she said nothing about going away . victor : now , her concert is in a few days . i hope that she 's ready to perform . tessa : i understand . victor : so she said nothing at all ? tessa : about leaving ? victor : yeah . tessa : no . definitely not . victor : and she did n't by chance ask you to keep something from me ? hilary : juliet , listen . this is not the end of the world , okay ? you are pregnant , which proves that you and cane had sex . that ca n't hurt your case . it can only help it . cane has been caught with his pants down , but you -- you have a baby on the way . [ cell phone chimes ] juliet : ugh . it 's leslie . i got to go . hilary : yeah . go , go . your lawyer comes first . devon : juliet is pregnant and it 's cane 's ? how the hell did that happen ? hilary : the usual way , devon . devon : oh , my god . lily ... hilary : okay , we should n't discuss this here . come . let 's go up to my suite . well ... are you coming ? jack : mother , you are free to make your own choices , but this -- this is beyond the pale . ashley : look , if you find the man valuable , by all means reward him with a salary or a bonus , but your estate ? dina : careful , you two . you 're beginning to sound jealous . ashley : that 's not true . we 're concerned about you . it does n't seem like you 're making the appropriate choices . dina : i know exactly what i 'm worth and exactly what i 'm giving graham . and for him to be able to stand by me always feels like a bargain . and he 's given up a lot to be with me . jack : oh , please ! what has graham given up ? what company in the world would give graham bloodworth a deal this sweet ? stay at a company for a little over a year , get in good with the boss who just happens to be a rich widow , and -- boom ! -- your fortunes soar . dina : you call it a deal ... ashley : actually , that was your word , mother . you said `` graham and i have a deal , `` remember ? dina : i prefer to call it peace of mind . and you ca n't put a price tag on that . jack : graham certainly has . dina : i did n't tell you this because i had to . i chose to because i wanted to get things out in the open . jack : and you assume he 's going to come through for you , that he 's going to be your steadfast companion no matter what ? dina : graham will be by my side until i no longer need him or anyone else . it 's a lifetime job . ashley : your lifetime . all you 've done is make him hope it 's a short one . gloria : well , hello , there . graham : gloria . gloria : are you here to see jack ? i can buzz him , let him know you 're here . graham : jack 's aware of that . thank you . but i 'd much rather be out here than in there . gloria : [ chuckling ] yeah . me , too . reed : listen , i 've just got to ask . did i say something wrong ? mattie : no . not at all . i love being made fun of for trying to show some initiative and get ahead . reed : oh , so that 's why you 're doing it . i thought it was so you did n't have to deal with your idiot brother , but clearly my bad . mattie : i should get back to this . reed : so , you sure you 're not up for a movie ? mattie : not if it means falling behind . reed : come on . it 's summer . i mean , you ca n't do math work all the time . mattie : what are you doing ? reed : jotting down song ideas . what can i say ? you inspire me . mattie : seriously ? reed : mm - hmm . i 'm starting with the titles . mattie : give me that . `` calculus girl . `` `` why does mattie hate movies so much ? `` `` lighten up , mattie . `` reed : i 'm thinking like a surfer vibe for that last one , you know ? mattie : maybe a movie would n't be so bad . reed : that 's an excellent choice . put that brain of yours in a jar for a minute . mattie : i 'm sorry for being such a pain . i 'm just not used to this ... guys asking me out . reed : well , we 're gon na have to change that . charlie : hey , is this loser bothering you ? mattie : what ? no . charlie , come off it . charlie : well , 'cause he 's sure bothering me . victoria : whether or not the baby is cane 's , he 's got a lot to sort out with his family . michael : wait a minute . he does n't think the baby 's his ? victoria : he 's not convinced . anyway , the damage is done . cane stuck by his lie because he thought he could get away with it , and now i 'm gon na end up paying . a lot . michael : before i call leslie , we should talk numbers . they 'll smell blood , but i 'm hoping i can keep things reasonable . victoria : as long as juliet agrees to sign a non - disclosure agreement . that 's key . michael : look at you . you 've just been handed a major setback . look how calm you are . victoria : on the outside . trust me , on the inside , i am raging . cane : i , um ... i spoke to victoria . she 's settling the case . lily : there 's no other option . you put her in a box . cane : yeah , i put us all in a box , i know that . are you okay ? lily : my dad was here . cane : did you , um ... did you tell him ? lily : you 're lucky he left already . cane : sweetheart , i know i have a lot to apologize for , and , uh ... but on the drive over , all i could think about is if i still have a marriage . lily : that 's your question ? `` do i have a marriage ? `` i have a question . why did you have to sleep with that woman ? cane : i did n't plan for it to happen . i was wasted . lily : do you think that makes it any better ? cane : no , it does n't make it any better , but i do n't remember doing it . lily : how do you think that makes me feel ? god , i just -- i keep picturing you with her . cane : i am -- i am so sorry . i never meant to cheat on you , sweetheart . lily : [ scoffs ] but you did . and now we have to deal with the consequences . cane : i will have juliet take a dna test , and i 'll do one , as well . lily : oh , my god . time after time , you lied . you were covering it up . cane : it was one - time mistake , and i told you already , i just did n't want to hurt you . and then it just spun out of control , and i was just helpless to stop it . lily : no , you were n't helpless . you were weak . there 's a difference . cane : sweetie , listen ... lily : listen , i know that i cheated on you in the past . i know that i took us for granted , and that was wrong . but what you did was so much worse . you let me stand up for you and defend you to people and say , `` no ! my husband would never do that ! `` cane : i 'm sorry . lily : and then you let me find out the truth in the worst possible way -- in public ! where that `` one - time mistake `` hands me a piece of paper that says that you got her pregnant . do you know how humiliating that is ? cane : i do . lily : did you do this to get back at me for joe clark ? cane : no , no , no . no , i forgave you for that . we put that behind us and we fixed us . we fixed us . we did . i 'm sorry . lily : and now you 're tearing us apart all over again . charlie : what are these , jokes ? reed : oh , wow ! he can read ! no , actually , they 're song titles . you know what , i think i actually just came up with another one . `` jocks with rocks for brains . `` charlie : you know , you 're the smartest person i know . what do you see in this dweeb ? mattie : will you both just chill ? how can you hate someone you barely know ? charlie : it 's pretty easy . reed : yeah , the feeling 's mutual , dude . [ exhales sharply ] i will call you later about that movie , and , um , take it easy , sport . charlie : tell me you 're not thinking of going out with that clown . mattie : hey , i , uh , actually have an idea . how about we double and you can bring zoey ? charlie : funny . `` calculus girl ? `` `` why does mattie hate movies so much ? `` mattie : give me that . hilary : i 'm sorry that you had to find out that way . devon : there 's still a chance that cane 's not the father . hilary : even if that 's true , where does -- where does it leave the case ? devon : i do n't care about the case . it 's lily that i 'm worried about . hilary : i know . and i 'm sorry to say that your worry is justified . why would juliet lie when it is so easy to prove a child 's paternity these days ? devon : i do n't know . but i know i warned cane not to hurt my sister , and he promised me that he would n't , and here we are now . and when the trust is broken like it is , how is a marriage supposed to last ? the twins are gon na be crushed when they find out 'cause this is n't something you could exactly keep a secret . and it 's hard to feel any sympathy for cane , as reckless as he 's been acting , and now when people hear about this , they 'll assume that the sexual harassment part is true , even if it 's not , and then he 'll be stuck with that label for the rest of his life . there 's no way you can change that . tessa : nikki 's been good to me , mr. newman , but it 's not like we 're besties . she 's my boss , you know . i ca n't think of anything she 'd say that she would n't want you to hear . victor : mm - hmm . i 'm just trying to figure out what motivated her sudden departure , you know ? but if she did n't confide in you , there 's nothing you can say , is there ? tessa : yeah , well , sorry i could n't be help . victor : tessa ... let 's talk about the upcoming concert . i would like you to open . tessa : me ? victor : yeah . you . i just know that she is very , very trepidatious about carrying the concert all by herself . if you were to open for her , that would alleviate the pressure . tessa : yeah . that makes sense . i would love to perform . thank you for asking . victor : i appreciate that . and , by the way , if you hear anything from nikki , you let me know , all right ? tessa : yeah . victor : good . tessa : oh , thank god you 're home . mariah : why ? what 's wrong ? tessa : victor newman summoned me to the club to grill me about nikki -- where she went and if she said anything to me , which she did n't . mariah : you told victor that ? tessa : yeah . mariah : did he believe you ? tessa : seems like it , but it 's victor , so who knows ? i mean , the guy 's like a walking , talking mind game . oh ! and get this -- he asked me to open up for nikki at the concert so she would n't feel overburdened . mariah : and you said yes , right ? tessa : well , i hoped it would be cool with devon , but i 'm contract , so ... mariah : no , it -- it 's a charity event . he 'll be fine with it . tessa : good . i just -- i do n't know with victor . i mean , he 's just so hard to read and so scary ! i just -- maybe he 's tricking me into letting my guard down or something . mariah : well , you have a right to be cautious . tessa : is that a warning ? mariah : i have my own bizarre history with the guy . do you remember when i told you i came to town as cassie 's `` ghost ? `` well , victor was the man pulling the strings . and that 's all the information you 're gon na get because i would n't want you thinking less of me . tessa : [ scoffs ] well , no , that would n't happen . you 've been a good friend to me . mariah : right back at you . anyway , look , nikki trusts you . that 's what important , and do n't let victor weird you out . tessa : [ sighs ] well , thank you for the safe space to freak out . mariah : no problem . do you have to run off ? because i have the sequel to that god - awful movie we watched the other day ready to go . tessa : ooh , well , cue it up ! mariah : yes ! tessa : ca n't be any worse than the original . mariah : there 's only one way to find out . i could use some company tonight . tessa : what about devon ? mariah : i left him a message , but he 's busy . devon : hey . i know i do n't have any right to ask you this . hilary : ask . devon : would you do me a favor and keep this whole mess off the air ? hilary : for lily 's sake ? devon : well , yeah . i mean , i know that nothing 's keeping you from taking what you know and sensationalizing it . hilary : yeah , nothing ... except i know what the fallout would be . devon : so does that mean you 'll leave it alone ? hilary : devon , you and i , we 've been going ' round and ' round about what is appropriate for me to report on , okay ? and i 'm proud of this show . i 'm not gon na report on a story solely for the purpose of going after your sister , okay ? i am better than that . devon : well , that 's not exactly a promise . hilary : how can i reassure you ? devon : i do n't know . it 's hard for me to think that you 'd do anything at all to help lily , but i would really appreciate if you did not make this more painful and difficult than it already is for her . you know ? if you cared about me at all ... hilary : devon ... i 've always cared . that 's never stopped . never will . devon : well , thank you . cane : i do n't know how to put into words how sorry i am and how low i feel , but i will do whatever you want me to do , and i will say whatever you want me to say . lily : so , what , now it 's on me to fix this for you ? cane : no . no . i 'm not saying that to you . lily : you mess up , and you want me to tell you how to make me feel better ? cane , i do n't know ! i do n't know because you did n't just have a one - night stand . you may have fathered a child . so i do n't know how to fix this . cane : i love you . i love you , and from now on out , every single thing will start with that one simple truth , my love . i love you . lily : i really wish you had remembered that in tokyo . cane : i know what i did was unforgivable , but just tell me what to do and i will do it . i will make it up to you . lily : this is n't just about me . do n't you get that ? we have a family ! cane : i know we have a family . lily : what about mattie and charlie ? how are they gon na feel about what you 've done ? cane : we ca n't tell them until the paternity test comes back . we ca n't do that . lily : oh , so , you just want to lie to them ? how about you tell me how to do that 'cause you 're so good at it . cane : i do n't want to lie to them . i just do n't want to hurt them . lily : that 's been your logic all along , has n't it ? right ? just do n't tell anyone . why hurt poor , stupid lily with the truth ? cane : come on . come on . do n't do this . lily : look how far that 's gotten us . cane : please do n't do this . [ door opens ] mattie : mom ? dad ? charlie : yeah . what 's wrong ? dina : i 'd be happy to tell my lawyers to forward each of you a copy of my will . jack : that is not what we want , and you know it . dina : i understand that you both are surprised and upset . well , maybe it 's because you were thinking i would be more generous when the time came . jack : we do n't need your money , mother . ashley : dina , maybe we 'll never be able to get past all the things that have caused us from being close , but it does n't mean that jack and i do n't care about you . and we ca n't help but feel concerned when it appears that you 're being taken advantage of . dina : well , how can that be the case when i know exactly what i 'm doing ? this is a decision i made . so live with it . i intend to happily . gloria : see ? every time i click there , it jumped to a different screen entirely instead of the function that i want to do . it 's very frustrating . graham : press f5 first . gloria : f5 . [ keyboard clicks ] gloria : [ gasps ] the man 's a genius ! graham : i would n't go that far . gloria : oh , that cologne of yours . what are you wearing ? it 's intoxicating .

[ maxie scoffs ] maxie : hmm , you know , i have to admit , whatever it is lulu does to make you guys all gooey and lovesick over her , in the beginning it works like gangbusters , but it 's the sustaining over time thing that usually falls apart . can i ask you something ? what is it exactly that lulu brings to the table ? besides a never - ending ability to make you chase her around , rescuing her all the time . do you even know why she 's such a drama queen ? johnny : something tells me you 're about to enlighten me . and i swear , if this has anything to do with your sister , i 've heard it a million times . maxie : oh , we do n't even have to look that deep . for lulu , it 's all about being a spencer , living up to the legend of her family legacy . you 're just a prop she uses to prove what a rebel she can be . johnny : that 's delusional , maxie , even for you . maxie : it 's truer than you think . i have legendary parents , too , you know . felicia and frisco -- big scary spies , big scary love story . and that is a bitch to live up to when you 're just an ordinary person , going to work every day , ruining all of your relationships . but i chose to channel my insecurities into a career . lulu chose to duplicate her parents ' love story by finding a guy just like her dear old dad . sexy , dangerous , intense , a guy who scares the hell out of her , just like luke did laura . but you ca n't relive someone else 's love story . only lulu would want to .

[ scene_break ] johnny : you have an interesting take on things , maxie . you 're completely wrong , but at least you 've given it some thought . maxie : i pay attention . for example , i watch your interaction with lulu enough to know you 're in constant battle with yourself . should you be selfish johnny and take what you think she has to offer or noble johnny who should really give lulu up ? you spend so much time arguing with yourself , you never get to be normal johnny and just have a nice night out with your girlfriend . johnny : maxie , there is one thing i 'm clear on and that is i 'd rather jump off the roof of this building than hurt lulu . maxie : i actually believe that you mean that . but that does n't matter . lulu will end up getting hurt in the end . it 's her whole victim mentality . she 's just too fragile for you . johnny : you do n't know me . maxie : tell me when i get it wrong . you are fearless and reckless . you already know that there 's no happily - ever - after . you like to live in the moment . it 's where you 're most comfortable . and if you were being completely honest with yourself , you would see that dumping lulu and finding a kindred spirit , someone more like me , would be better for both of you in the end .

[ scene_break ] patrick : i want to hear you admit it . robin asked you to dump jake off to give me a little preview of baby life , did n't she ? elizabeth : i will admit to no such thing . i was in a jam . i needed a sitter , thought of robin , simple as that . patrick : elizabeth , do n't deny it . you 're busted . and by the way , your little scam did n't work . i was great with jake . elizabeth : really ? patrick : yes . robin : when was that ? patrick : very funny . okay , i was a little out of my realm in the beginning , but i 'm not incapable of adapting . robin : all right , well , that was n't the point . patrick : ah , you set me up , did n't you ? robin : only for the purposes of demonstration . obviously , you are smart enough to pick up a skill like diapering or feeding a child -- patrick : oh , well , thank you . robin : but that does not translate into wanting the burden of every day , day- to - day care . and the only reason that you did excel was because you wanted to stick it to me and elizabeth . so that brings me to the pertinent question -- if i am having a baby , why would i want to live with someone who would rather be hung by their nails than have one around ? patrick : how impossible are you going to be ? elizabeth has explained to me how much i 'd be missing out if i did n't step up as a father . elizabeth , could you explain it again , please ? clearly , robin did n't retain it the first time .

[ scene_break ] claudia : your young friend is not only sick smart , he 's also very perceptive . especially about the weird dynamic between you and sonny . jason : you 're not one to talk about weird dynamics . he 's babbling . he 's got a fever . claudia : he was dead on . sonny blames himself for what happened to michael . he thinks he deserves to be punished , so he gives away the business that he spent his entire life building , just hands it over to you ? that 's not enough pain for sonny . he 's gon na convince himself that he wants it back , that he deserves it . you took it from him , so he will force your hand . he will get himself all worked up into a good mad , and then he 'll make a run for you . and he will maneuver himself into a situation where you 're forced to kill him , saving himself the pain and the mess . and then finally , the punishment fits the crime . jason : i do n't deal in made up situations . claudia : you do n't read a lot of greek tragedies , do you ? this could n't be more oedipal , unless you slept with your mother and gouged your eyes out . jason : are you delirious ? claudia : okay , when everything that spinelli just predicted comes true , i will try really hard not to remind you that you were warned .

[ elizabeth sighs ] elizabeth : okay , fine . if the two of you are going to insist that i get in the middle , i will tell you what i really think . every set of parents is different . some men are ideally suited for raising children and some are not . and still others are not capable of being there for a number of reasons . but the important thing , the critical thing , is that you guys always remain honest with each other so no one person is expecting more than the other is prepared to give . and the two of you can decide if what 's available to be had is enough -- or not . my suggestion to you both is that you really , really talk it through before this baby gets here . and that 's the extent of my advice . i 'm going to go get my kid now . patrick : i can see why you are friends with her . robin : what do you mean ? patrick : well , i only see elizabeth in a professional setting . i forget how much life experience she has and how wise she is from it . elizabeth : thank you both very much for taking such good care of him . can you say bye - bye , jake ? robin : bye . elizabeth : say bye - bye , see you soon . robin : bye , jake . robin : i have to say i am very impressed with you . patrick : why ? robin : because you were man enough to respect elizabeth 's advice even though she sided with me . patrick : what are you talking about ? it was clear she was on my side . [ scene_break ] lulu : let me guess where this is going . i am too fragile to be with johnny . i should stay away from him for my own good . you are so predictable , not to mention shameless , for using my mother 's condition as a way to try and break up me and johnny . maxie : i have no problem going after johnny wearing a bathing suit or taking advantage of time spent stranded together in an elevator . none of that is any more or any worse than what you did breaking up georgie and dillon 's marriage . lulu : oh , god , are you ever going to stop throwing that in my face ? maxie : probably not , because i miss my sister and i hate that her life 's over . i try not to obsess about it . but when i let myself , i think that if georgie had stayed with dillon , maybe she would still be alive . lulu : are we comparing horrible things we 've done ? maxie : i 'm trying to explain to you that where i would be happy to hurt your feelings and take away your boyfriend , i do not want you to lose your mind . lulu : uh , my mind is just fine , thank you . maxie : your mom was unstable and cracked after years of violence and loss and now you 're in a serious relationship with a mob prince who has a homicidal father ? tell me how any of that is good for -- lulu : you do n't know what you 're talking about right now . maxie : illnesses run in families , everything from breast cancer to bipolar disorder . you have laura 's genes , so why are you taking the same chances ? lulu : okay , all right , you know what ? i think that you are trying to show concern in a twisted and completely inappropriate way right now , but you do n't have to worry , okay ? because i 'm not my mother and i 'm not going to go crazy over johnny or for any other reason .

[ jake cries ] patrick : robin , come on , okay ? let 's make a deal . i will do anything to prepare the food , but you -- you have to feed him , please . robin : mm . patrick : hey , come on , i 'm desperate here . i 'm asking a favor . robin : okay , how about we do it together ? patrick : thank you .

[ scene_break ] jax : why would you object to a home pregnancy test ? carly : because there 's no point . jax : what 's the harm ? i mean , you -- you 're queasy . we 've been having sex for weeks , unprotected . and it 's -- it 's a trip to the drug store just to get a home pregnancy test . it 's a couple of bucks . carly : no , i do n't need to do that because i know i 'm not pregnant . i got to tell you , the way you 're acting and pushing me really worries me . are we going to have a problem if we find out that i ca n't have a baby ? jax : no , why would you say that ? carly : i mean , do you think that a baby is going to fill the void that michael left , because -- jax : you know what ? you 're protesting too much and i think i know why . [ scene_break ] johnny : you have an interesting take on things , maxie . you 're completely wrong , but at least you 've given it some thought . maxie : i pay attention . for example , i watch your interaction with lulu enough to know you 're in constant battle with yourself . should you be selfish johnny and take what you think she has to offer or noble johnny who should really give lulu up ? you spend so much time arguing with yourself , you never get to be normal johnny and just have a nice night out with your girlfriend . johnny : maxie , there is one thing i 'm clear on and that is i 'd rather jump off the roof of this building than hurt lulu . maxie : i actually believe that you mean that . but that does n't matter . lulu will end up getting hurt in the end . it 's her whole victim mentality . she 's just too fragile for you . johnny : you do n't know me . maxie : tell me when i get it wrong . you are fearless and reckless . you already know that there 's no happily - ever - after . you like to live in the moment . it 's where you 're most comfortable . and if you were being completely honest with yourself , you would see that dumping lulu and finding a kindred spirit , someone more like me , would be better for both of you in the end . [ scene_break ] spinelli : it is the most basic of conflicts , the foundation of dynastic politics . the young king must inevitably replace the old one . as one waxes , the other wanes . and despite sentiment , loyalty , and natural reticence , the king must die . long live the king . it is time for stone cold to play his part in the epic struggle . jason : your fever is spiking . you -- you 're talking crazy right now . you know what ? i got this from here , okay ? claudia : no , you know , if i stuck around and took care of you , i 'm not going to abandon a sweetheart like spinelli . spinelli : go -- go easy on stone cold . he is in terrible turmoil . claudia : is that right ? spinelli : stone cold struggles daily with the dire reality of inevitable destiny . you must come to loggerheads with your true father . jason : spinelli , my father 's dead . spinelli : not your biological father , the late and deeply lamented dr. alan , but in every other way , the parental role in stone cold 's life has been mr. sir . claudia : who 's mr. sir ? spinelli : mr. corinthos , sir . jason : spinelli . spinelli : mr. corinthos sir is stone cold 's master in a way , at whose feet the young jason morgan learned the ways , the methods , the ethics of mob life . and stone cold learned his lessons well and is now , in the fullness of time , stepped in to wear the mantle , but power is insidious and mr. sir is held in its sway . he will wish to command again . jason : okay , you know what ? you need to rest . spinelli : be forewarned , my friend and master , for it will come to be . mr. sir will die and by your hand . [ scene_break ] kate : oh , sonny , this is so not a big deal . pre - nups are practically de rigueur these days . sonny : what ? kate : required . sonny : oh . kate : look , just -- let 's get diane on it , clear up all the legalities so we can concentrate on all the fun planning . sonny : okay , you know , we 're not going to just gloss this over . okay , you -- i heard you . your thoughts are valid and facts are facts . i 've been breaking laws since i was six years old and i 've made a lot of enemies on both sides of the fence , right ? kate : mm - hmm . sonny : i -- i may be out of my former life , but it does n't , uh , it left me . i mean , something out of nowhere could come out and bite me that i do n't even remember . you do n't want to be dragged down . so what -- if you think that it 's a bad idea to be my wife , i wo n't hold you to any promises you 've made here tonight . we do n't have to get married . [ scene_break ] carly : do n't analyze me , jax . jax : it 's just an observation , okay ? you -- you 're afraid of the possibility of a pregnancy because you do n't know if you can handle it if you 're not pregnant . carly : you want the truth ? jax : yeah . carly : i ca n't imagine being pregnant right now . i ca n't imagine having a little life growing inside of me and being happy about that when my first born is lying in a hospital bed , still and silent . you see , i think that 's unbearable . jax : does your love for morgan lessen your love for michael ? carly : no , of course not . jax : well , it would n't be lessened by a new child , either . carly : you know what ? you 're not listening to me . i do n't know how many ways to tell you . i 'm not pregnant . there 's no -- jax : that 's why i 'm saying that we should jax and carly : hey . jax : how was the movie ? morgan : great . carly : yeah ? jax : awesome . carly : how was morgan ? was he good ? mercedes : good as gold , just like always . would you guys mind if i took off ? it 's my dad 's birthday and i 'd love to surprise him . carly : go for it . of course , go . jax : do you need a ride ? mercedes : that 'd be great . jax : i 'll be back soon . carly : okay . your stepdad 's pretty great , is n't he ? morgan : yeah . carly : yeah . wow , i just hope he 's wrong this time . [ scene_break ] patrick : finally , that kid fell asleep . robin : will you stop calling him `` kid `` ? his name is jake . patrick : sorry . this has been a horrifying experience -- all that incessant yammering . and what was that slop you shoveled into his mouth ? robin : it was n't slop . it was food , and he liked it . and the yammering you were talking about ? that was baby talk for , `` mm , this is so good . `` patrick : you 're not going to feed that stuff to our kid , are you ? robin : yes , eventually our kid will graduate to solid food . patrick : that was not solid . and trust me , it was not solid coming out . [ knock at door ] patrick : perfect . patrick : elizabeth . elizabeth : hi . patrick : lovely to see you . elizabeth : oh , should i assume you 're not going to beg me to leave jake a little longer ? patrick : oh , no , i would n't want to keep jake from his little buddies at the daycare any more than what 's necessary , since , you know , he did n't really need to leave in the first place . nice scam , ladies . elizabeth : scam ? i do n't know what you 're talking about . patrick : this may come as a shock to both of you , but men have instincts and i followed mine and i called the daycare . and they said jake was having a great time with all of his little friends until his mother swooped in and took him . they did n't know why , but i do . robin put you up to this , did n't she ? [ scene_break ] lulu : i thought you were supposed to be meeting your father . johnny : the elevator got stuck . maxie and i have been waiting for someone to come fix it . all right , i 've got to get upstairs and see my father who is going to call out the national guard . are you coming ? lulu : no , you go ahead . maxie and i have a few things to get straight . johnny : find you later . maxie : okay . johnny : and not you . lulu : maxie , i swear on everything that has ever mattered to me , if you do n't stop throwing yourself at johnny , i will do something to get us both fired and you can kiss your career good - bye . maxie : you would n't be resorting to blackmail unless you were terrified you ca n't hold on to your boyfriend . lulu : you are unbelievable . maxie : he is too much for you , just like luke was for laura . what you ca n't see is that johnny is the one thing in this world that could put you in a rocking chair , facing the wall . [ scene_break ] spinelli : you must somehow subvert your fate . allow me to be your tireses , your blind prophet as it were -- jason : we 're going to talk about this is in the morning . why are you still here ? spinelli : no -- the raven haired vixen must stay . claudia : sweetie , do n't work yourself up . i 'm not going anywhere . spinelli : okay , your instincts will tell you to remain loyal to mr. sir , to back him no matter what , but that would be a mistake . you must find it in your stone coldness to stand up to mr. sir or else risk being the instrument of his destruction . jason : you , you 're not making any sense . claudia : i understand it perfectly . spinelli : mr. corinthos , sir craves retribution for the physical devastation of little michael , but not from another , from himself . he will use you to gain what he desires . he will come back the business and force your hand , but do not acquiesce . please , stand up to mr. -- jason : okay , whatever . i 'll stand up to sonny , just lie down and get some rest . claudia : you realize that everything he just said is true . [ scene_break ] kate : okay , i see , so we 've been engaged for less than two hours and you already have cold feet ? sonny : not even close . i love you . you 're the woman i want to spend the rest of my life with , but maybe that 's being selfish again , you know ? i mean , what 's necessarily good for me might not be good for you . so if that 's the case , you 've just got to say so . kate : all right , sonny , i am going to make a speech right now . are you listening ? when i was a very young girl , i made a conscious choice to build my life to my specifications , to become an independent woman so that when and if the time ever came , i could marry for love , not for financial security , not for social standing . and guess what ? i did that , and it led me to you . nothing is going to stop me from becoming your wife . kate : maybe we should wait and go the old fashioned route , save it for our wedding night . sonny : not a chance . [ scene_break ] patrick : i want to hear you admit it . robin asked you to dump jake off to give me a little preview of baby life , did n't she ? elizabeth : i will admit to no such thing . i was in a jam . i needed a sitter , thought of robin , simple as that . patrick : elizabeth , do n't deny it . you 're busted . and by the way , your little scam did n't work . i was great with jake . elizabeth : really ? patrick : yes . robin : when was that ? patrick : very funny . okay , i was a little out of my realm in the beginning , but i 'm not incapable of adapting . robin : all right , well , that was n't the point . patrick : ah , you set me up , did n't you ? robin : only for the purposes of demonstration . obviously , you are smart enough to pick up a skill like diapering or feeding a child -- patrick : oh , well , thank you . robin : but that does not translate into wanting the burden of every day , day- to - day care . and the only reason that you did excel was because you wanted to stick it to me and elizabeth . so that brings me to the pertinent question -- if i am having a baby , why would i want to live with someone who would rather be hung by their nails than have one around ? patrick : how impossible are you going to be ? elizabeth has explained to me how much i 'd be missing out if i did n't step up as a father . elizabeth , could you explain it again , please ? clearly , robin did n't retain it the first time . [ scene_break ] scott : hey , i 'm surprised that you agreed to meet me for dinner -- pleasantly , that is . logan : well , i figured we could take this time to get to know each other a little better . scott : well , now , that 's encouraging . so how is it wheeling some old mobster around for a living ? logan : excuse me . excuse me ; i need to have a word with you . johnny : yeah , i do n't talk to the hired help . logan : if you gave a damn about lulu , you 'd tell her you 're as crazy as the rest of your family and leave her alone . johnny : okay , try to follow -- i won , you lost . lulu 's mine . she does n't want anything to do with you . that means -- hey , pay attention . you do n't get a say in what goes on anymore in her life now get the hell out of my face and get back to work . my father might need to be wiped . scott : hey , hey , call security . he , hey , hey , hey , hey . scott : zacchara , i will have you arrested . [ scene_break ] lulu : is kate here ? maxie : no , she 's out for the day with sonny and she does n't want to be disturbed , so you do n't need to worry about liking your job . lulu : good , because i want to get something straight with you . my mother has an incurable condition called psycho - motor disassociation . she had a total emotional and psychotic break . she is trapped inside her own body . no one can be certain what she feels or if she 's aware of what 's going on around her . no one can be sure that she 's not screaming inside every single day for somebody to help her . so when you say that my mom 's sitting in a rocking chair staring at a wall , it 's not a joke . it 's not some everyday snarky maxie insult , it 's cruel . it 's like making fun of somebody with cancer or aids . so if you want to come after me , come after me any way you want . but if you ever make fun of my mother again -- maxie : you can skip the empty threats , lulu . okay , i knew i went too far as soon as the words came out of my mouth . what happened to your mom was way too awful to use as ammunition in a fight , and i 'm sorry . i know you wo n't believe me when i say it . lulu : well , do n't even say it then . maxie : but i 'm pretty sure we wo n't talk about this again , so i might as well get it off my chest . your mom went crazy for a reason . lulu : yes , because scott baldwin made her believe that she killed rick webber . maxie : what about all the stuff that happened with your dad ? the danger , the loss -- do n't you think that had anything to do with it ? lulu : your saying that my -- what , my dad 's to blame ? maxie : i 'm saying that you 're laura 's daughter , and you 're taking a lot of the same chances that she did . [ scene_break ] claudia : your young friend is not only sick smart , he 's also very perceptive . especially about the weird dynamic between you and sonny . jason : you 're not one to talk about weird dynamics . he 's babbling . he 's got a fever . claudia : he was dead on . sonny blames himself for what happened to michael . he thinks he deserves to be punished , so he gives away the business that he spent his entire life building , just hands it over to you ? that 's not enough pain for sonny . he 's gon na convince himself that he wants it back , that he deserves it . you took it from him , so he will force your hand . he will get himself all worked up into a good mad , and then he 'll make a run for you . and he will maneuver himself into a situation where you 're forced to kill him , saving himself the pain and the mess . and then finally , the punishment fits the crime . jason : i do n't deal in made up situations . claudia : you do n't read a lot of greek tragedies , do you ? this could n't be more oedipal , unless you slept with your mother and gouged your eyes out . jason : are you delirious ? claudia : okay , when everything that spinelli just predicted comes true , i will try really hard not to remind you that you were warned . [ spinelli moans ] claudia : it 's time to get him to a hospital . [ scene_break ] kate : sonny , i need you . sonny : you okay ? kate : i need a refill .

[ elizabeth sighs ] elizabeth : okay , fine . if the two of you are going to insist that i get in the middle , i will tell you what i really think . every set of parents is different . some men are ideally suited for raising children and some are not . and still others are not capable of being there for a number of reasons . but the important thing , the critical thing , is that you guys always remain honest with each other so no one person is expecting more than the other is prepared to give . and the two of you can decide if what 's available to be had is enough -- or not . my suggestion to you both is that you really , really talk it through before this baby gets here . and that 's the extent of my advice . i 'm going to go get my kid now . patrick : i can see why you are friends with her . robin : what do you mean ? patrick : well , i only see elizabeth in a professional setting . i forget how much life experience she has and how wise she is from it . elizabeth : thank you both very much for taking such good care of him . can you say bye - bye , jake ? robin : bye . elizabeth : say bye - bye , see you soon . robin : bye , jake . robin : i have to say i am very impressed with you . patrick : why ? robin : because you were man enough to respect elizabeth 's advice even though she sided with me . patrick : what are you talking about ? it was clear she was on my side . [ scene_break ] lulu : let me guess where this is going . i am too fragile to be with johnny . i should stay away from him for my own good . you are so predictable , not to mention shameless , for using my mother 's condition as a way to try and break up me and johnny . maxie : i have no problem going after johnny wearing a bathing suit or taking advantage of time spent stranded together in an elevator . none of that is any more or any worse than what you did breaking up georgie and dillon 's marriage . lulu : oh , god , are you ever going to stop throwing that in my face ? maxie : probably not , because i miss my sister and i hate that her life 's over . i try not to obsess about it . but when i let myself , i think that if georgie had stayed with dillon , maybe she would still be alive . lulu : are we comparing horrible things we 've done ? maxie : i 'm trying to explain to you that where i would be happy to hurt your feelings and take away your boyfriend , i do not want you to lose your mind . lulu : uh , my mind is just fine , thank you . maxie : your mom was unstable and cracked after years of violence and loss and now you 're in a serious relationship with a mob prince who has a homicidal father ? tell me how any of that is good for -- lulu : you do n't know what you 're talking about right now . maxie : illnesses run in families , everything from breast cancer to bipolar disorder . you have laura 's genes , so why are you taking the same chances ? lulu : okay , all right , you know what ? i think that you are trying to show concern in a twisted and completely inappropriate way right now , but you do n't have to worry , okay ? because i 'm not my mother and i 'm not going to go crazy over johnny or for any other reason . [ scene_break ] det . harper : so you 're telling me what we 've got here is your basic public brawl . i 'm a detective . scott : yeah , and i 'm the special prosecutor . that 's why i called you . now , i want you to arrest him on assault charges . johnny : that 's not at all what happened . det . harper : are you willing to give your statement ? johnny : i do n't say a damn thing without my lawyer . scott : well , you better have yourself a pretty good lawyer . now here 's what happened . he attacked my son . he went into some kind of psycho rage and he tried to kill him -- i want you to arrest him , harper . arrest him now . det . harper : you have a right to remain silent . anything you say may be used against you in a court of law . you have a right to an attorney . if you ca n't afford an attorney , one will be provided for you at interrogation time and at court .

[ scene_break ] nikolas : this is none of your business . dr. obrecht : i am the chief of staff of this hospital . nikolas : i do n't care ! i do n't want you anywhere near my son ! dr. obrecht : i understand . you have issues with me because of britta . i have issues with you , as well . but my daughter loved your son . she would want me to see to his case . nathan would also want me to intervene , and he is a member of your family . [ scene_break ] nathan : been a cassadine all of five minutes , but i 'm crazy about spencer . alexis : yeah , we all are . he 's a special little boy . and i 'll tell you , nikolas is gon na to the ends of the earth to try to save him . nathan : yeah . hey , listen , i really appreciate you looking after my sister 's interests , especially with spencer in the hospital . really , i -- i do n't know where we 'd be if you had n't fought so hard for nina . [ scene_break ] nina : if it makes you feel good to call my phyllis , you can call me phyllis . you can call me any name you want . and you can , um ... you can laugh and yell and scream at me , and you can tell me your deepest , darkest secrets . i 'm not going anywhere . i 'm gon na ride this out . i 'm not gon na abandon you . guard : here she is . alexis : thank you . oh . nina : [ chuckles ] i 'm so happy to see you ! nathan : hey , nina . i 'm happy to see you , too . you 're gon na be even happier when you hear our news . alexis just came from the courts . you 're getting out of here . nina : i 'm getting out of here ? nathan : mm - hmm . nina : how ? why ? alexis : just ... is there someplace else we can talk ? nina : no , i have to take care of franco . alexis : okay . well , then we 'll talk right here . so , there was a hearing this morning about your case to review -- uh , the damages and your charges -- and the doctors have testified that you were not in your right mind when you kidnapped ava 's baby , that you believed you were the infant 's mother , and that silas was the infant 's father . the doctors also testified that , after treatment , you have fully recovered , that you 're aware of reality , that you are not the baby 's parent , neither is silas . therefore , the charges against you have been dropped . nina : that 's amazing . i - i - i ca n't believe it . um ... nathan : you 're free , nina . they 've released you . you 're going home today . nina : oh , my god . thank you . thank you . thank you for always believing in me . thank you . nathan : always . nina : hey ! did you hear that , franco ? franco . i 'm ... i do n't have to stay here anymore . i 'm leaving . but -- but i 'm gon na visit you every day , i promise . alexis : no , i 'm sorry , nina . i 'm afraid that ca n't happen . [ scene_break ] carly : what the hell was diane thinking sending you ? ric : well , miss miller is dealing with another case . she 's not able to make the custody hearing . she wants to make sure that sonny has the best possible representation . carly : you ? ric : you know , personal issues aside , carly , i happen to be an excellent attorney . and i am your brother ... which means i have an incentive to fight for you even harder . sonny : really ? ric : is this gon na be a problem ? carly : oh , yeah . it -- it 's gon na be a big problem . [ scene_break ] morgan : dad did n't get to see avery the whole time he was in prison , michael . the whole time -- michael : he spent three months of what was supposed to be a life sentence . morgan : oh , my god . he did n't get to see her until he was pardoned . now you 're gon na take her away from him ? what 's wrong with you ? michael : nothing is wrong with me ! i care about what happens to avery , unlike you two . kiki : [ scoffs ] excuse me . i took care of her for months . i fed her , and i bathed her , and i rocked her to sleep ! okay ? i love her ! michael : okay , if you love her , then why did you hand her over to a killer ? kiki : i did not just hand her over , okay ? i thought it through , and morgan and i talked about it . morgan : she was gon na take custody of avery . kiki : but then i thought about what avery would 've wanted . she 's already lost her mother . she deserves to know her dad . and , okay , he is who he is . but he loves her , and nobody has the right to keep him from his child . michael : sonny was about to murder ava the night avery was born . i stopped him . now you want to side with sonny . but you two -- you two are in this together . i - i get that . you 're supporting sonny 's rights as a father . but who here is really looking out for what 's best for avery ? morgan : what are you talking about ? dude , you do n't even know avery . you saw her one time when you came to kick us out of the brownstone . was that because you cared about her so much ? michael : i care enough to want to keep her safe . morgan : oh , you 're full of it , michael . you do n't love her . the judge is gon na see that . you 're just doing this to hurt dad . michael : you know , you -- [ scoffs ] you were kidnapped when you were a baby , morgan . you probably do n't remember that . but you remember when i was shot in the head , and i spent a year in a coma . you remember all those times we spent at the island because it was n't safe to live at home with dad ? and you were sent off to military school for those exact same reasons . sonny is a criminal . he 's dangerous to avery . that 's why i 'm gon na win custody . sonny 's never gon na see avery again . and neither are you or kiki . [ scene_break ] ric : i was asking sonny . sonny : if i have a problem with you representing me ? ric : yeah . do you ? sonny : well , last year , when you first came to town , i thought you were coming after my business . so , yeah , i had a problem with you then . but then i found out that , uh , luke set you up . ric : yeah , and i 'd be a dead man if you had n't sent shawn in to save me . sonny : right . i almost got a bullet in my head , but butler did his job , thanks to you . so ... why do n't you let me pay back the favor and help you hang on to that beautiful , little niece of mine ? sonny , i promise you , i will fight like hell for you . carly : like the way you fought for jake ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : can you tell me how jake doe is doing ? he 's in the icu . nurse : i was just up there . he is n't awake yet , but he seems to have had a good night . elizabeth : okay . thanks . [ scene_break ] nikolas : do n't play games with me . i know my uncle victor is n't nathan 's father . dr. obrecht : why would you say such a thing ? nikolas : my grandmother filled me in , so do n't use your son to soften me up about mine ! you just get somebody in here to help spencer . you understand me ? dr. obrecht : nikolas , i know what it 's like to have a son in pain . i 'm trying to help you if you 'd only let me . elizabeth : what is going on ? are you okay ? nikolas : i 'm fine . i 'm fine . we were just discussing spencer 's case . how can you help ? dr. obrecht : i 've spoken with the doctors who have been treating him . the best course of action is for me to discharge spencer from general hospital . [ scene_break ] sonny : what happened between ric and jake that you would even bring this up ? carly : elizabeth told me everything that happened before i left the hospital last night . ric : yeah , it 's a misunderstanding . carly : no , it 's not . it 's classic ric . elizabeth asked ric to defend jake , and he agrees , and then he `` advises `` jake to plead guilty . he wants jake to send himself to prison for 25 years . then he comes up with an excuse that there 's no way a jury would acquit , when the truth is that ric feels threatened by jake . and we all know how ric reacts when he feels threatened or when he 's scared . he wants to get rid of whatever scares him , right ? and you 're afraid that elizabeth has feelings for jake . so you want him out of the way . did i get that right ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : how can you possibly discharge spencer ? nikolas : she 's retaliating . i kicked britta out , so she 's doing the same thing to spencer , never mind that he 's burned and suffering from smoke inhalation . forget that . dr. obrecht : i see you are both not thinking clearly ... elizabeth : [ scoffs ] dr. obrecht : ... which i would expect from a distraught father but not from a member of my staff , nurse webber . allow me to finish . spencer needs expert treatment for his injuries , and while i 've seen to it that our pediatrics department excels in every way , his needs will be better served by shriners hospitals for children . they provide critical , surgical , and rehabilitative pediatric burn care regardless of a family 's ability to pay . nikolas : uh , money is no object . i only want the finest care for spencer . and that is what he 'll receive . dr. obrecht : shriners hospitals for children have world - renowned doctors who specialize in treating patients like spencer . i 've spoken to the facility in boston . i 'd send my own child there . elizabeth : so would i. spencer will receive the very best care there . nikolas : fine . how soon can we make it happen ? [ scene_break ] ric : what happened was between me and elizabeth and is none of your business . carly : it 's sonny 's business , okay ? sonny needs a lawyer who 's going to have his best interest in mind -- okay ? -- not someone that 's gon na use his position of trust to sabotage him like you did to jake . ric : okay , okay . sonny , this ... [ chuckles ] this incident has absolutely no bearing on your case . all right , look -- avery is my niece . i want what 's best for her . i will do everything in my power to make sure that you retain custody of your daughter . but if you are uncomfortable with me representing you , i will go to the judge and talk to him , and we will get a continuance so that i can find you somebody else . ric : you do n't need to do that . [ scene_break ] silas : knock it off , both of you ! hey ! come on ! what 's wrong with you ? hitting each other ai n't gon na solve anything . you 're grown men , supposedly . act like it . and have a little respect , all right ? kiki 's mom is missing and presumed dead . where 's your compassion , huh ? you spent a - a year with my daughter . you said you loved her . is all that gone now ? michael : ava killed connie and framed my father . kiki : so , what ? she deserved to die ? is that what you 're saying ? michael : no . what i 'm saying is i know what it 's like to lose a parent . kiki : [ sighs ] thanks , dad . you tried . [ pager beeping ] morgan : i 'm sorry . silas : all right . morgan : i 'm sorry . are you okay ? silas : hey , listen -- i 'm sorry to do this . i got -- i got to leave town for a day or two . a - a colleague 's calling me in on a critical case . kiki : i - i understand . silas : yeah ? just be gone for a couple days , all right ? so , i -- i ca n't do anything on this michael thing , but ... about your mom , whatever you decide , i 'm fine with it . but , you know , if you do n't feel like saying goodbye , you can wait . kiki : do you think i should ? silas : i ca n't make that decision for you , sweetheart . you got to do it yourself . i 'm just sorry you have -- you have so many things you have to handle right now . kiki : hey . bye , dad . [ scene_break ] nina : you just said the charges against me would be dropped , that -- that i would be free to go . why ca n't i visit my friend franco ? alexis : because your friend franco was an accomplice in the kidnapping , so if you continue to see him , the court may think you are n't appropriately remorseful . nina : well , he needs me . nathan : nina ... look , you have to show the judges that you know the difference between right and wrong , which means you have to stay away from franco . alexis : we have an appointment , uh , with the judge . it 's just a formality , and after that , you can start your life over again . nina : okay . i understand . i 'm heading over to the courthouse . nathan : hey , i 'll -- i 'll follow you in a couple of minutes , all right ? i just want to give her a minute to say goodbye to franco . [ scene_break ] michael : alexis , finally . let 's talk some strategy . alexis : you 're too early . michael : i - i just want to know exactly how you 're gon na prove sonny 's unfit , all right ? alexis : michael , i told you -- you are not my only client . i have a hearing right now , uh , uh , for nina clay . it 's only a formality . it 's not gon na -- what happened to your lip ? michael : it 's nothing . it 's nothing . um , look , what if this whole thing with nina clay runs long ? alexis : it 's not -- it -- there 'll be plenty of time before the hearing . i told you to get herbal tea , and you went and had a latte , did n't you ? michael : okay . look , my sister 's future is on the line here . i 'd appreciate it if you do n't make jokes . alexis : okay . come sit , sit , sit . look , i do n't mean to be , but i really , really need you to relax . i also think that ... you 're not on edge so much because of the baby but because i think you 're finally realizing that when you challenge your father like this , it might , uh , sever ties with him and the rest of your family . and you must know , michael , that if you challenge him in this way , you may not be able to reconcile with your father or the rest of your family . and i know you do n't want to have anything to do with them right now , but never is a long time . michael : [ sighs ] ric : you 're right . she 's beautiful . [ scene_break ] kiki : i was so torn up about giving avery to sonny . i did n't know what my mom would 've wanted for avery , but ... you know , i remember how much it meant when i finally got to meet silas . and i did n't want avery to go through what i went through , you know ? i want her to know her dad . morgan : well , i mean , my dad 's a good guy . she 'd be better off knowing him . kiki : and he loves her . i can see that . but , you know , what if she ends up with michael ? he does n't even care about her . he 's just using her . and you heard him -- he 'll never let us see her . i should 've fought for custody , you know ? maybe if she were with me , michael would n't be doing this . morgan : honestly , michael 's on a warpath . there 's no telling what he would do . [ chuckles ] kiki : what about avery ? morgan : he 's not gon na win custody . she 's gon na stay with my dad , and you 're gon na get to see her anytime you want to see her . kiki : you sure ? morgan : yes , i 'm 100 % positive , okay ? michael 's a single guy . he works 24/7 . no one 's gon na give him a kid . kiki : yeah . you know what ? you 're right . morgan : come on . let 's -- let 's set a time and a place for ava 's memorial .

[ scene_break ] michael : that 's a , uh , interesting choice for a lawyer -- the man who held carly captive , who was gon na take morgan right when he was born and give him to his wife . you 're okay siding with the man who chained you to a wall ? carly : i 'm not okay with any of this . michael : right . but you 're still siding with sonny . carly : and you 're in this alone , michael . you do n't have to put yourself through this . michael : yes , i do . for her sake . carly : hey , princess . you have n't seen her in a while . michael : yeah , morgan already made that point . does n't affect the case . carly : really ? you have n't even held her . do n't you want to know what you 're fighting for ? you 're such a good girl , are n't you ? you are . would you like to meet your big brother ? avery , this is michael . michael ... ... this is avery .

[ scene_break ] sonny : why would spencer go into that burning room ? what was he thinking ? carly : sonny , he was thinking like a 10-year - old little boy . i mean , there 's no doubt that spencer is unique . you know , he 's precocious and independent , and we all have a tendency to treat him like an adult . but the bottom line is , he 's a little kid . he 's a little kid that just wanted his favorite present . sonny : it 's not like the robe was irreplaceable . i mean , you do n't go into a burning room ... carly : hey , hey , it 's not your fault . okay ? it 's not your fault . sonny : how badly is he hurt ? carly : he 's suffering from smoke inhalation . they had him on a ventilator last night . a - and he does have some severe burns . sonny : i got to -- i got to get to the hospital . [ scene_break ] alexis : yes , michael , i am thoroughly prepared to argue your case for custody . but again , it 's not gon na be easy , because i know your father , i know he loves you , but he is gon na fight you to the mat for that baby . michael : well , at least the judge decided not to throw the case out . i mean , that 's a good sign . alexis : the judge agreed to hear arguments only . as i said , sonny is the biological father . biological parents ' rights are paramount . diane is gon na come at you with both barrels . it 's gon na be rough . michael : i - i do n't want to hear your -- your warnings . i want to hear your strategy . h - how are you gon na win this ? alexis : well , the first thing i 'm gon na advise is for you to calm down , because if you lose your cool when you get up there , it 's not gon na help anybody . so , i 'm in the middle of another case . here 's what i need you to do . i need you to go get a latte somewhere and rel -- no . get some herbal tea . calm down , and i 'll meet you here later . [ scene_break ] morgan : i 'm sorry , kiki . i probably should 've figured out a better way to tell you than that . kiki : that michael wants custody of avery ? morgan : yeah , i saw the paperwork myself . kiki : but why ? morgan : why does he do anything anymore ? i do n't know . he 's -- he 's just trying to stick it to my dad , i guess . kiki : it 's just -- it 's nuts . morgan : yeah . tell me about it . my dad was all broken up , but i mean , what am i gon na say ? michael 's gone off the deep end . kiki : you know , i - i get it . he 's mad at your dad . fine . but , you know , that 's between them . this is avery 's life . he has no right to interfere . morgan : i could not agree with you more . kiki : and i know he used to take care of joss , but babysitting for a couple hours is a far cry from taking care of a baby 24/7 . wh - what is he thinking ? morgan : he 's not . he 's not thinking . that 's it . this -- this has nothing to do with avery . this has everything to do with sonny . sonny took away aj , so now michael wants to take away avery . kiki : he never even came to see her when i had her . and michael had nothing to do with the search for avery when she was with nina and franco . [ scene_break ] nina : my name is n't phyllis . it 's nina . franco : right . nina : mm - hmm . franco : that 's a good one , phyllis . you 're always so full of mischief . wow . we really got into a lot of trouble in wisconsin . nina : i 've never been to wisconsin . hey . can you look at me ? can you look at me ? are you still hallucinating ? franco : i 'm hallucinating ? nina : yeah . you injected yourself with an overdose of lsd because you did n't want to go back to prison . you wanted to stay here at shadybrook with me . you remember ? do you understand what i 'm saying ? franco : yeah , i understand . nina : thank god . franco : i understand this is one of your schemes , phyllis . you 're always up to something . [ scene_break ] silas : let me ask you something . you really think that nina 's ready to be released ? nathan : well , yeah , i think she 's made a lot of progress . you know , she 's calm . she makes sense now . doctors are saying she 's let go of a lot of her fantasies . she does n't think you guys are together . she does n't think that you two are the parents of that baby anymore . so , yeah , i think she 's made a lot of progress . silas : good . i 'm happy for her . nina 's spent a lot of time in institutions . she deserves to get her life back on track . nathan : yeah , let 's hope the judge agrees . silas : keep me posted , will you ? nathan : yeah . [ cell phone ringing ] nathan : alexis , hey . hey , so how did it go ? alexis : the judge made a decision about your sister . [ scene_break ] kiki : this whole michael thing , it 's just so loaded for me . i ca n't even think about it right now . i just have to focus on planning this memorial for my mom . silas : so you 're really going through with this ? kiki : yeah . silas : you know , i - i understand you want to honor your mom . that 's a beautiful thing ... but she has n't even been declared dead yet , at least not officially . kiki : i do n't know what they 're waiting for . she was shot and fell off a bridge into freezing water . the police gave up searching for her . i have to assume she 's dead . avery 's lost her mother , and she 's gon na lose her father now , too , if michael has his way . [ sighs ] [ door opens ] kiki : uh , michael ? morgan : you son of a bitch . kiki : morgan , do n't ! morgan : you stay away from dad and avery , you hear me ? [ scene_break ] sonny : can you please stay with avery ? carly : no , wait , wait ! no . look , i know how much you love spencer -- okay ? -- but you have to see him later . sonny : [ sighs ] carly : you 've got to focus on the hearing , sonny . we ca n't be late , and we ca n't miss it . michael will use it against you . sonny : you think michael 's really gon na do that ? really ? carly : michael thinks he 's doing the right thing . he 's ruthless , he 's motivated , and he has a great lawyer , okay ? and i tried to reason with him , but he wo n't listen . he 's not gon na back down . sonny : i need to see -- he 's in the hospital . this boy 's in the ho -- carly : listen to me , listen to me , okay ? i will go with you and see him later . i will . but -- but we have got to get ready . diane 's gon na be here any minute to prep us . ric : sorry . but , uh , diane ca n't make it . [ scene_break ] nikolas : this is none of your business . dr. obrecht : i am the chief of staff of this hospital . nikolas : i do n't care ! i do n't want you anywhere near my son ! dr. obrecht : i understand . you have issues with me because of britta . i have issues with you , as well . but my daughter loved your son . she would want me to see to his case . nathan would also want me to intervene , and he is a member of your family . [ scene_break ] nathan : been a cassadine all of five minutes , but i 'm crazy about spencer . alexis : yeah , we all are . he 's a special little boy . and i 'll tell you , nikolas is gon na to the ends of the earth to try to save him . nathan : yeah . hey , listen , i really appreciate you looking after my sister 's interests , especially with spencer in the hospital . really , i -- i do n't know where we 'd be if you had n't fought so hard for nina . [ scene_break ] nina : if it makes you feel good to call my phyllis , you can call me phyllis . you can call me any name you want . and you can , um ... you can laugh and yell and scream at me , and you can tell me your deepest , darkest secrets . i 'm not going anywhere . i 'm gon na ride this out . i 'm not gon na abandon you . guard : here she is . alexis : thank you . oh . nina : [ chuckles ] i 'm so happy to see you ! nathan : hey , nina . i 'm happy to see you , too . you 're gon na be even happier when you hear our news . alexis just came from the courts . you 're getting out of here . nina : i 'm getting out of here ? nathan : mm - hmm . nina : how ? why ? alexis : just ... is there someplace else we can talk ? nina : no , i have to take care of franco . alexis : okay . well , then we 'll talk right here . so , there was a hearing this morning about your case to review -- uh , the damages and your charges -- and the doctors have testified that you were not in your right mind when you kidnapped ava 's baby , that you believed you were the infant 's mother , and that silas was the infant 's father . the doctors also testified that , after treatment , you have fully recovered , that you 're aware of reality , that you are not the baby 's parent , neither is silas . therefore , the charges against you have been dropped . nina : that 's amazing . i - i - i ca n't believe it . um ... nathan : you 're free , nina . they 've released you . you 're going home today . nina : oh , my god . thank you . thank you . thank you for always believing in me . thank you . nathan : always . nina : hey ! did you hear that , franco ? franco . i 'm ... i do n't have to stay here anymore . i 'm leaving . but -- but i 'm gon na visit you every day , i promise . alexis : no , i 'm sorry , nina . i 'm afraid that ca n't happen . [ scene_break ] carly : what the hell was diane thinking sending you ? ric : well , miss miller is dealing with another case . she 's not able to make the custody hearing . she wants to make sure that sonny has the best possible representation . carly : you ? ric : you know , personal issues aside , carly , i happen to be an excellent attorney . and i am your brother ... which means i have an incentive to fight for you even harder . sonny : really ? ric : is this gon na be a problem ? carly : oh , yeah . it -- it 's gon na be a big problem . [ scene_break ] morgan : dad did n't get to see avery the whole time he was in prison , michael . the whole time -- michael : he spent three months of what was supposed to be a life sentence . morgan : oh , my god . he did n't get to see her until he was pardoned . now you 're gon na take her away from him ? what 's wrong with you ? michael : nothing is wrong with me ! i care about what happens to avery , unlike you two . kiki : [ scoffs ] excuse me . i took care of her for months . i fed her , and i bathed her , and i rocked her to sleep ! okay ? i love her ! michael : okay , if you love her , then why did you hand her over to a killer ? kiki : i did not just hand her over , okay ? i thought it through , and morgan and i talked about it . morgan : she was gon na take custody of avery . kiki : but then i thought about what avery would 've wanted . she 's already lost her mother . she deserves to know her dad . and , okay , he is who he is . but he loves her , and nobody has the right to keep him from his child . michael : sonny was about to murder ava the night avery was born . i stopped him . now you want to side with sonny . but you two -- you two are in this together . i - i get that . you 're supporting sonny 's rights as a father . but who here is really looking out for what 's best for avery ? morgan : what are you talking about ? dude , you do n't even know avery . you saw her one time when you came to kick us out of the brownstone . was that because you cared about her so much ? michael : i care enough to want to keep her safe . morgan : oh , you 're full of it , michael . you do n't love her . the judge is gon na see that . you 're just doing this to hurt dad . michael : you know , you -- [ scoffs ] you were kidnapped when you were a baby , morgan . you probably do n't remember that . but you remember when i was shot in the head , and i spent a year in a coma . you remember all those times we spent at the island because it was n't safe to live at home with dad ? and you were sent off to military school for those exact same reasons . sonny is a criminal . he 's dangerous to avery . that 's why i 'm gon na win custody . sonny 's never gon na see avery again . and neither are you or kiki . [ scene_break ] ric : i was asking sonny . sonny : if i have a problem with you representing me ? ric : yeah . do you ? sonny : well , last year , when you first came to town , i thought you were coming after my business . so , yeah , i had a problem with you then . but then i found out that , uh , luke set you up . ric : yeah , and i 'd be a dead man if you had n't sent shawn in to save me . sonny : right . i almost got a bullet in my head , but butler did his job , thanks to you . so ... why do n't you let me pay back the favor and help you hang on to that beautiful , little niece of mine ? sonny , i promise you , i will fight like hell for you . carly : like the way you fought for jake ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : can you tell me how jake doe is doing ? he 's in the icu . nurse : i was just up there . he is n't awake yet , but he seems to have had a good night . elizabeth : okay . thanks . [ scene_break ] nikolas : do n't play games with me . i know my uncle victor is n't nathan 's father . dr. obrecht : why would you say such a thing ? nikolas : my grandmother filled me in , so do n't use your son to soften me up about mine ! you just get somebody in here to help spencer . you understand me ? dr. obrecht : nikolas , i know what it 's like to have a son in pain . i 'm trying to help you if you 'd only let me . elizabeth : what is going on ? are you okay ? nikolas : i 'm fine . i 'm fine . we were just discussing spencer 's case . how can you help ? dr. obrecht : i 've spoken with the doctors who have been treating him . the best course of action is for me to discharge spencer from general hospital . [ scene_break ] sonny : what happened between ric and jake that you would even bring this up ? carly : elizabeth told me everything that happened before i left the hospital last night . ric : yeah , it 's a misunderstanding . carly : no , it 's not . it 's classic ric . elizabeth asked ric to defend jake , and he agrees , and then he `` advises `` jake to plead guilty . he wants jake to send himself to prison for 25 years . then he comes up with an excuse that there 's no way a jury would acquit , when the truth is that ric feels threatened by jake . and we all know how ric reacts when he feels threatened or when he 's scared . he wants to get rid of whatever scares him , right ? and you 're afraid that elizabeth has feelings for jake . so you want him out of the way . did i get that right ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : how can you possibly discharge spencer ? nikolas : she 's retaliating . i kicked britta out , so she 's doing the same thing to spencer , never mind that he 's burned and suffering from smoke inhalation . forget that . dr. obrecht : i see you are both not thinking clearly ... elizabeth : [ scoffs ] dr. obrecht : ... which i would expect from a distraught father but not from a member of my staff , nurse webber . allow me to finish . spencer needs expert treatment for his injuries , and while i 've seen to it that our pediatrics department excels in every way , his needs will be better served by shriners hospitals for children . they provide critical , surgical , and rehabilitative pediatric burn care regardless of a family 's ability to pay . nikolas : uh , money is no object . i only want the finest care for spencer . and that is what he 'll receive . dr. obrecht : shriners hospitals for children have world - renowned doctors who specialize in treating patients like spencer . i 've spoken to the facility in boston . i 'd send my own child there . elizabeth : so would i. spencer will receive the very best care there . nikolas : fine . how soon can we make it happen ? [ scene_break ] ric : what happened was between me and elizabeth and is none of your business . carly : it 's sonny 's business , okay ? sonny needs a lawyer who 's going to have his best interest in mind -- okay ? -- not someone that 's gon na use his position of trust to sabotage him like you did to jake . ric : okay , okay . sonny , this ... [ chuckles ] this incident has absolutely no bearing on your case . all right , look -- avery is my niece . i want what 's best for her . i will do everything in my power to make sure that you retain custody of your daughter . but if you are uncomfortable with me representing you , i will go to the judge and talk to him , and we will get a continuance so that i can find you somebody else . ric : you do n't need to do that . [ scene_break ] silas : knock it off , both of you ! hey ! come on ! what 's wrong with you ? hitting each other ai n't gon na solve anything . you 're grown men , supposedly . act like it . and have a little respect , all right ? kiki 's mom is missing and presumed dead . where 's your compassion , huh ? you spent a - a year with my daughter . you said you loved her . is all that gone now ? michael : ava killed connie and framed my father . kiki : so , what ? she deserved to die ? is that what you 're saying ? michael : no . what i 'm saying is i know what it 's like to lose a parent . kiki : [ sighs ] thanks , dad . you tried . [ pager beeping ] morgan : i 'm sorry . silas : all right . morgan : i 'm sorry . are you okay ? silas : hey , listen -- i 'm sorry to do this . i got -- i got to leave town for a day or two . a - a colleague 's calling me in on a critical case . kiki : i - i understand . silas : yeah ? just be gone for a couple days , all right ? so , i -- i ca n't do anything on this michael thing , but ... about your mom , whatever you decide , i 'm fine with it . but , you know , if you do n't feel like saying goodbye , you can wait . kiki : do you think i should ? silas : i ca n't make that decision for you , sweetheart . you got to do it yourself . i 'm just sorry you have -- you have so many things you have to handle right now . kiki : hey . bye , dad . [ scene_break ] nina : you just said the charges against me would be dropped , that -- that i would be free to go . why ca n't i visit my friend franco ? alexis : because your friend franco was an accomplice in the kidnapping , so if you continue to see him , the court may think you are n't appropriately remorseful . nina : well , he needs me . nathan : nina ... look , you have to show the judges that you know the difference between right and wrong , which means you have to stay away from franco . alexis : we have an appointment , uh , with the judge . it 's just a formality , and after that , you can start your life over again . nina : okay . i understand . i 'm heading over to the courthouse . nathan : hey , i 'll -- i 'll follow you in a couple of minutes , all right ? i just want to give her a minute to say goodbye to franco . [ scene_break ] michael : alexis , finally . let 's talk some strategy . alexis : you 're too early . michael : i - i just want to know exactly how you 're gon na prove sonny 's unfit , all right ? alexis : michael , i told you -- you are not my only client . i have a hearing right now , uh , uh , for nina clay . it 's only a formality . it 's not gon na -- what happened to your lip ? michael : it 's nothing . it 's nothing . um , look , what if this whole thing with nina clay runs long ? alexis : it 's not -- it -- there 'll be plenty of time before the hearing . i told you to get herbal tea , and you went and had a latte , did n't you ? michael : okay . look , my sister 's future is on the line here . i 'd appreciate it if you do n't make jokes . alexis : okay . come sit , sit , sit . look , i do n't mean to be , but i really , really need you to relax . i also think that ... you 're not on edge so much because of the baby but because i think you 're finally realizing that when you challenge your father like this , it might , uh , sever ties with him and the rest of your family . and you must know , michael , that if you challenge him in this way , you may not be able to reconcile with your father or the rest of your family . and i know you do n't want to have anything to do with them right now , but never is a long time . michael : [ sighs ] ric : you 're right . she 's beautiful . [ scene_break ] kiki : i was so torn up about giving avery to sonny . i did n't know what my mom would 've wanted for avery , but ... you know , i remember how much it meant when i finally got to meet silas . and i did n't want avery to go through what i went through , you know ? i want her to know her dad . morgan : well , i mean , my dad 's a good guy . she 'd be better off knowing him . kiki : and he loves her . i can see that . but , you know , what if she ends up with michael ? he does n't even care about her . he 's just using her . and you heard him -- he 'll never let us see her . i should 've fought for custody , you know ? maybe if she were with me , michael would n't be doing this . morgan : honestly , michael 's on a warpath . there 's no telling what he would do . [ chuckles ] kiki : what about avery ? morgan : he 's not gon na win custody . she 's gon na stay with my dad , and you 're gon na get to see her anytime you want to see her . kiki : you sure ? morgan : yes , i 'm 100 % positive , okay ? michael 's a single guy . he works 24/7 . no one 's gon na give him a kid . kiki : yeah . you know what ? you 're right . morgan : come on . let 's -- let 's set a time and a place for ava 's memorial . [ scene_break ] ric : [ clears throat ] alexis : what are you doing here ? ric : i 'm stepping in for diane . alexis : oh . good . then i get to beat you again . ric : [ chuckles ] yeah , i got a few tricks up my sleeve . alexis : yeah , like wheeling a baby into the courtroom ? ric : no , judge heller wanted to see avery to , uh ... make sure that all of her needs are being met . that 's all . michael : well , that simplifies things . when the hearing 's over , i can take my sister home with me . sonny : that 's not gon na happen . alexis : how about we just save all this for the courtroom ? ric : yeah , yeah , yeah . alexis : you got an anxious crew . ric : you think ? alexis : yeah , good luck keeping a lid on them . ric : whoa , whoa . wait a minute . where are you going ? alexis : i have another hearing . as soon as she gets here . [ scene_break ] nathan : hey , i 'm , uh -- i 'm just gon na wait for you outside , okay ? and i 'm -- i 'm sorry about franco . i 'm happy you 're released . i missed you . nina : okay . so ... i know i made a promise to stay with you , but ...

[ scene_break ] phyllis : um , ricky is a budding journalist , and he was interested in doing some freelancing for us . nick : okay . phyllis : yeah . i think it 's a good idea . i think he has potential . nick : does his `` potential `` have anything to do with the fact that he 's working on sharon 's trial ? phyllis : well , we are a magazine , and it is a huge story . i think it helps us to have more than one source , and avery is n't going to be very forthcoming with me . nick : if avery is not giving out any information , maybe she has a reason for that . phyllis : eh . nick : maybe she does n't want any bad publicity for sharon 's trial . phyllis : well , that does n't matter to me . nick : look , i know you do n't care what happens to sharon , but -- phyllis : whoa , whoa , no , no , no . no , that 's not what it is , and that is not what i meant . bad publicity at this point is not gon na hurt sharon 's trial . it 's not . and all the stories that i run on her have basically made her a celebrity . who told the world that there was a memory card that could basically prove her innocence ? i did . who also told the world that adam had it in his hot little hands but destroyed it ? i did . i have done a hell of a lot more to free sharon than avery could possibly do . nick : avery got her a new trial . phyllis : which she 's blowing , by the way . she 's gon na need someone to pull her butt out of the fire along with sharon . would n't it be rich , would n't it be brilliant , if that person happened to be me ?

[ scene_break ] adam : why are you getting so upset ? i just told you -- heather : yeah , yeah , one of your slippery , technically true promises . `` nobody will ever hear about this `` from you . what does that mean ? adam : just what i said . heather : so people will hear about it from somebody else ? adam : heather , you give me too much credit . i 'm not as clever as you think i am . heather : i do n't understand . why -- why -- why would you want to sabotage me ? not me . the case . you changed your mind . ( sighs ) you 're back on sharon 's side , are n't you ? adam : how would this help sharon if -- well , i guess if people thought you and i were colluding together against her during this entire trial , that could be a problem for you . heather : you bastard ! adam : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] ronan : i hear you got a new job . congrats . you leaving town soon ? chance : ( sighs ) well , when i do , it 's not gon na be in the middle of the night without even saying good - bye to mom . ronan : i 'm sure it wo n't be , because you and her are very close . you have been your whole life . it 's a little different situation over here . chance : ronan , she wants to get close to you , too . and deep down , i truly believe that you want to get to know her better . otherwise , why would you have shown up the other night ? ronan : well , i was just hungry , chance . chance : oh , come on . ronan , what is holding you back here , man ? i mean , what has you so petrified from opening up just a little bit to mom ? ronan : if you 're done playing psychologist on me , i have a case i need to be working on . chance : okay , yeah , get up . walk away . that 's -- that 's right . this is the job where you get to ask all the questions , and no one else gets to , right ? huh ? is that how it is ? is that how ronan operates ? you know what ? here 's the thing -- maybe the reason why you wo n't answer mine is because you do n't simply have an answer at all . is that it ? i mean , is that why you 're so walled off , ronan ? from me ? mom ? everyone ? because if that 's the reason , if that 's the answer , that 's really sad to think about , man . you 're just a detective , a guy with a badge , who does n't have a clue .

[ scene_break ] sharon : ( scoffs ) adam set this up ? avery : mm - hmm . he does n't want to see you convicted , but he does n't want to put himself in the hot seat , either , and admit phyllis was right about him having the memory card . sharon : so he ... instead does this . avery : mm - hmm . well , if the judge declares a mistrial , there 's a chance that the d.a . might not want to take your case to court again . sharon : because it 's more trouble than it 's worth ? avery : that 's what adam is banking on . sharon : ( sighs ) but there 's no guarantee of that , though . avery : no , my guess is that spencer will think third time is a charm . sharon : well , if he does , adam 's off the hook because of these pictures . avery : right . the judge will never let him testify with this . sharon : so once again , adam comes out without a scratch , and meanwhile , heather 's career and her reputation are destroyed . avery : you ever have a cat bring you a dead mouse and expect you to be thrilled with it ? that 's adam . i 'm sure he thinks this is the height of chivalry , he 's your hero come to save you .

[ scene_break ] victor : sit down , son . ( sighs ) let me ask you something . does it really surprise you that i feel partly responsible for what happened to sharon ? that she went to hawaii because of what i had done to uncover what i had done hiding skye lockhart ? nick : there 's more to this than guilt or family obligation , dad . i mean , be honest . if this were phyllis in this situation , would you be reacting the same way ? victor : unlikely . nick : yeah , you 've always had a soft spot for sharon . victor : son , who would n't have a soft spot for her knowing about her childhood , knowing how tough that was ? and then she marries you , time to get all that behind her , only to lose her children and to lose you to phyllis . and then she gets involved with that psychopath adam . that 's too much for any one person to deal with . she 's alone , and it saddens me . nick : look , if you think you can change sharon back to the person she used to be , you ca n't . so give it up . sharon 's changed now . now whether that was under the influence of adam , i do n't know . but she is reckless , and she is unreliable . dad , i know you do n't want to see that . hell , i did n't want to see it . but i had no choice . i have children depending on me . they have to be my priority . victor : and i understand that . but you do n't think phyllis is unreliable and reckless ? would you prevent phyllis ... ? nick : ( sighs ) victor : from seeing her child ? of course you would n't . do you hold phyllis to the same high moral standards that you do sharon ? you and i both know the answer to that . it 's no . and i do n't understand that .

[ scene_break ] phyllis : i do n't know why you 're not callin ' me back . i hope you have n't taken those pictures of adam and heather to another outlet . i would be very disappointed . listen , um , nobody can give you the exposure that `` restless style `` can . no one can do that . i can put 'em up on the blog in seconds . please , please call me back . if it 's about the bonus ... we can talk about that . it 's negotiable . anything is negotiable . please , ricky , call me as soon as you get this . nick : ricky ? as in paul 's son ? phyllis : yeah , i was just leaving him a message . nick : yeah , i got that . i just did n't know you two knew each other . phyllis : yeah , we met the other night . nick : oh , okay . what 'd you need to talk to him about ? it sounded pretty urgent . [ scene_break ] ricky : ( sighs ) avery : you got something for me ? ricky : yeah , i do . i actually had it last time we talked . i 'm sorry ... i 'm sorry i did n't give it to you earlier . you 'll understand when you see . avery : so it 's not just a rumor . ricky : you know what the weirdest part is ? adam called me , told me it would be worth my time to come down to the club . told me to bring a camera , told me where and when exactly to stand and wait to get the best shot . avery : he set heather up ... for sharon 's sake . [ scene_break ] adam : i gave you a gift , ricky . morally , ethically , you are obligated to do everything you can to defend your client , and if you 're smart , maybe you 'll make a little money on the side . call me as soon as you get this . ( knock on door ) adam : oh , good morning . heather : no , not really . adam : why ? are you nervous about the trial ? heather : uh , actually , i 'm -- i 'm okay in that department , um , as long as nobody finds out what happened , uh , what almost happened between us the other night . adam : i 'm surprised you remember , actually . you had quite a bit to drink . heather : yes , i did , which is the only reason i ... it was a lapse in judgment on my part . adam : well , do n't worry about me . i 'm -- no one 's gon na hear anything about this from me . heather : ( sighs ) oh , my god . what have you done ? [ scene_break ] victor : you know that avery 's doing everything she can for you . you know that . sharon : yeah . that 's because that 's her job . she 's a very committed professional . she is not my friend . she 's not family . victor : mm - hmm . sharon : and that 's not to say that i do n't have any family support . there 's been noah . he 's been wonderful , probably far more so than i deserve , but i just -- i do n't ... ( sighs ) i want him to focus on his own life and his career . i do n't want him holding my hand . and my mother -- well , you know the story with her . victor : ( sighs ) yeah . i understand that , um , sam did n't want to leave town . sharon : yeah . i had to convince him . can you believe that ? he 's ... he 's made so many sacrifices for me , and i - i just started to feel guilty , and -- and it just was n't fair to him . victor : you know what disappoints me the most ? that nicholas has n't stepped up more . do you feel the same ? sharon : no . victor : hmm . sharon : i understand , you know ? i 've -- i 've done things that he never dreamed or imagined that i could do . i mean , he ca n't trust me anymore . he does n't know what to expect from me . so i guess i - i ca n't expect the same things from him anymore . you know , i ca n't ... i ca n't assume that he 's gon na be there for me like he used to be . victor : you may accept that . i ca n't . [ scene_break ] phyllis : um , ricky is a budding journalist , and he was interested in doing some freelancing for us . nick : okay . phyllis : yeah . i think it 's a good idea . i think he has potential . nick : does his `` potential `` have anything to do with the fact that he 's working on sharon 's trial ? phyllis : well , we are a magazine , and it is a huge story . i think it helps us to have more than one source , and avery is n't going to be very forthcoming with me . nick : if avery is not giving out any information , maybe she has a reason for that . phyllis : eh . nick : maybe she does n't want any bad publicity for sharon 's trial . phyllis : well , that does n't matter to me . nick : look , i know you do n't care what happens to sharon , but -- phyllis : whoa , whoa , no , no , no . no , that 's not what it is , and that is not what i meant . bad publicity at this point is not gon na hurt sharon 's trial . it 's not . and all the stories that i run on her have basically made her a celebrity . who told the world that there was a memory card that could basically prove her innocence ? i did . who also told the world that adam had it in his hot little hands but destroyed it ? i did . i have done a hell of a lot more to free sharon than avery could possibly do . nick : avery got her a new trial . phyllis : which she 's blowing , by the way . she 's gon na need someone to pull her butt out of the fire along with sharon . would n't it be rich , would n't it be brilliant , if that person happened to be me ? ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] avery : i think i can get a mistrial with these . i 'll need you to testify , of course , verify their authenticity , but are you willing to do that ? ricky : yeah . avery : are you sure ? heather 's your sister . ricky : well , she 's not my sister in the way that you 'd normally think about it . we just met for the first time a couple weeks ago . but i still felt enough of a connection that i knew i could n't sell them . avery : sell them ? ricky : yeah . someone made me an offer on 'em . avery : must have been a good one . ricky : i 'm not gon na profit off of them . but that does n't mean that i owe it to heather to suppress them , either . avery : no , of course you do n't . look , if she had these feelings for a key witness , she should have never taken the case . ricky : she -- she strikes me as the kind of person who -- who thinks she can get away with anything -- bending the rules . she was probably spoiled by our father growing up . it 's obvious that he thinks she could do no wrong . avery : well , he 's about to find out otherwise , is n't he ? ricky : heather made her choice . let her live with it . [ scene_break ] adam : why are you getting so upset ? i just told you -- heather : yeah , yeah , one of your slippery , technically true promises . `` nobody will ever hear about this `` from you . what does that mean ? adam : just what i said . heather : so people will hear about it from somebody else ? adam : heather , you give me too much credit . i 'm not as clever as you think i am . heather : i do n't understand . why -- why -- why would you want to sabotage me ? not me . the case . you changed your mind . ( sighs ) you 're back on sharon 's side , are n't you ? adam : how would this help sharon if -- well , i guess if people thought you and i were colluding together against her during this entire trial , that could be a problem for you . heather : you bastard ! adam : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] ronan : i hear you got a new job . congrats . you leaving town soon ? chance : ( sighs ) well , when i do , it 's not gon na be in the middle of the night without even saying good - bye to mom . ronan : i 'm sure it wo n't be , because you and her are very close . you have been your whole life . it 's a little different situation over here . chance : ronan , she wants to get close to you , too . and deep down , i truly believe that you want to get to know her better . otherwise , why would you have shown up the other night ? ronan : well , i was just hungry , chance . chance : oh , come on . ronan , what is holding you back here , man ? i mean , what has you so petrified from opening up just a little bit to mom ? ronan : if you 're done playing psychologist on me , i have a case i need to be working on . chance : okay , yeah , get up . walk away . that 's -- that 's right . this is the job where you get to ask all the questions , and no one else gets to , right ? huh ? is that how it is ? is that how ronan operates ? you know what ? here 's the thing -- maybe the reason why you wo n't answer mine is because you do n't simply have an answer at all . is that it ? i mean , is that why you 're so walled off , ronan ? from me ? mom ? everyone ? because if that 's the reason , if that 's the answer , that 's really sad to think about , man . you 're just a detective , a guy with a badge , who does n't have a clue . ( scoffs ) [ scene_break ] nina : well , i have got to watch what i say around you . i mention a play 's got good reviews , and now i have tickets . paul : well , i was thinking we could spend , you know , the whole weekend in chicago . nina : ( sighs ) paul : chance will have already left by then . nina : and ronan certainly wo n't miss me , so ... paul : yeah , but , you know ... ( sighs ) our children have kept us very busy lately . nina : ( laughs ) yes , they have . paul : and i think that , uh , maybe we 've been distracted from some of the conversations we ought to be having . nina : like what ? paul : well , i 'd like to talk about the future , maybe our future . nina : should i feel guilty about keeping you away from ricky ? i mean , he just got to town . paul : no , not at all . i 'll make time for ricky . whether or not he 'll have time for me , i do n't know . ( chuckles ) nina : what , is he being standoffish ? paul : oh , no , no , not at all . it 's , uh , he 's just so involved with this case . nina : oh , well , thank goodness they 're not all like ronan . paul : i know . i mean , i half expected there to be some -- some tension between ricky and me because i was n't much a part of his life when he was young . nina : but he understands why . right ? paul : well , he seems to . i think he 's just happy to be getting to know this side of the family better . [ scene_break ] ricky : heather . heather : ( sighs ) ricky : you okay ? here , let me call dad . heather : no , no , please . do n't do that . he will think i 'm such an idiot . i am such an idiot . ( sighs ) ricky : i 'm sure he 'll be supportive , whatever it is that 's going on . uh , he 's been there for you your entire life . why would he stop now ? heather : you 've got the wrong idea about us . i mean , that 's not paul 's and my story at all . [ scene_break ] avery : great news . sharon : what ? avery : i think we 're gon na get a mistrial . sharon : ( gasps ) how ? avery : you can thank adam . [ scene_break ] nick : all right , something 's weird here . aside from you claiming that you 're on this mission to save sharon -- phyllis : i just want to run a hot story . that 's all i want . that 's all i 've ever wanted . nick : and it 's also a chance to one - up your sister , which makes it better , right ? yeah , do n't deny it . i can actually feel the competitive vibe coming from you . phyllis : oh , really ? is that the vibe you get ? what kind of vibe do you get from avery ? nick : um , that vibe would be strictly professional . phyllis : really ? yeah , that was professional , what i saw at crimson lights when you guys were in each other 's arms . nick : so that 's why -- okay . okay . she was having a bad day , all right ? i guess . i do n't know . i was there . what ? no . no , no , no . you are not gon na turn this into something it 's not , all right ? and i do n't want you going off and doing something to screw up sharon 's case just 'cause you 're pissed at me . ( cell phone alert chimes ) nick : do n't do that . and as usual , there 's a problem in the art department . phyllis : oh , yeah , go to it . i 'm sure there are a lot of girls there who are stressed out and need a hug . ( sighs ) nick : nothing happened . [ phyllis remembering ] ronan : i 'm a cop . phyllis : i know you are . ronan : which makes this ... phyllis : very wrong . ronan : very wrong . phyllis : ( sighs ) ronan : this is a bad idea . phyllis : those are always the best ideas , are n't they ? the bad ones . ronan : ( sighs ) phyllis : ( sighs ) [ scene_break ] ( scribbling on notepad ) phyllis : wait , who 's this ... phyllis : what ? ( elevator door opens ) phyllis : ronan . ( scoffs ) [ scene_break ] ronan : that -- that 's an awfully big box for a bracelet . man : all the smaller things were together . ronan : ( sighs ) all right , thanks . [ scene_break ] nick : dad . are you looking for me ? victor : as a matter of fact , i am , son . i came to apologize for getting a court order forcing you to take faith to see her mother . nick : okay . victor : i know that you eventually would have come to the conclusion yourself that it was wrong to keep faith away from sharon . nick : so you are apologizing , but you still think you were right to do that . victor : i acknowledge that i overstepped , okay ? but i 'm asking you not to take out whatever anger you have toward me on sharon . nick : i do n't appreciate you characterizing it like that . victor : how else would you describe it , son ? you turned your back on someone you know is innocent . nick : i did n't turn my back on her , dad . victor : uh - huh . nick : i told you from the beginning that i would help sharon any way i could with the magazine . victor : with the magazine . nick : anything beyond that , i have to establish some boundaries . you might want to look into that . victor : meaning what ? nick : why do you care so much about sharon ? victor : is n't it obvious ? why would n't i care about the mother of my grandchildren ? [ scene_break ] sharon : ( scoffs ) adam set this up ? avery : mm - hmm . he does n't want to see you convicted , but he does n't want to put himself in the hot seat , either , and admit phyllis was right about him having the memory card . sharon : so he ... instead does this . avery : mm - hmm . well , if the judge declares a mistrial , there 's a chance that the d.a . might not want to take your case to court again . sharon : because it 's more trouble than it 's worth ? avery : that 's what adam is banking on . sharon : ( sighs ) but there 's no guarantee of that , though . avery : no , my guess is that spencer will think third time is a charm . sharon : well , if he does , adam 's off the hook because of these pictures . avery : right . the judge will never let him testify with this . sharon : so once again , adam comes out without a scratch , and meanwhile , heather 's career and her reputation are destroyed . avery : you ever have a cat bring you a dead mouse and expect you to be thrilled with it ? that 's adam . i 'm sure he thinks this is the height of chivalry , he 's your hero come to save you . [ scene_break ] adam : hey , faith . hey , you . what you doin ' ? faith : scary fingers . adam : ( gasps ) scary fingers ! guess what ? mommy 's gon na come see you real soon . faith : mommy ! adam : mm - hmm . i promise . [ scene_break ] heather : ( sighs ) i did n't even know paul growing up . ricky : you did n't ? heather : no , i - i grew up with my mother and -- and my stepfather . he was definitely a big influence , probably why i became a prosecutor . definitely why i 'm so screwed up when it comes to men . ( sighs ) he used to beat my mother up . ricky : i 'm sorry . i - i did n't know . heather : it was a big family secret . nobody knew . well , some people suspected , but nobody did anything about it . ricky : did he hurt you ? heather : he threatened to , so my mother killed him . i 'm actually surprised avery was n't more thorough . she did n't have you investigate me . paul : hey , my two favorite people . how 's it going ? [ scene_break ] ronan : ( sighs ) okay , well , that 's definitely not victoria 's . ronan : can i help you ? phyllis : do n't look at me like that . please do n't even go there . ronan : well , i wo n't , because we agreed that neither one of us is gon na go there again . right . phyllis : exactly . that 's what we agreed . and that 's twice as true , especially after what you did . [ scene_break ] sharon : ( sighs ) i know exactly how heather is going to feel when she sees those photos . avery : yeah , well , do n't feel too sorry for her . it 's not the first time she 's crossed the line ethically . she 's a disgrace to her office , and it 's an office she 's not gon na have much longer . sharon : and adam claims another victim . [ scene_break ] paul : so you guys have , uh , time to sit and have some coffee ? ricky : no . no , no , um , i 'm sorry . i 've got ta run . paul : okay , i 'll ... catch you later . how about you ? heather : i 'm due into court . paul : what ? sharon 's trial ? heather : yeah . paul : hold on . are you worried ? i mean , from what i read in the paper , everything 's going your way . heather : ( sighs ) yeah , but , i mean , everything can change on a dime . i mean , if i let my guard down , avery is not above using underhanded tactics . paul : you know what ? you can handle anything she throws at you . you know that . do n't worry about it . okay ? heather : how 's it going with you and ricky ? paul : you 're the second person to ask me that today . and i have n't been able to spend as much time with him as i would like because of the trial , but , uh , i 'm looking forward to getting to know him better like i did you . heather : well , it 's better late than never . paul : you know , i - i feel awful about all the things i missed out on with you two . heather : ca n't change it now . paul : are you okay ? heather : yeah , i 'm fine . i 'm fine . i 'm just -- i 'm late . wish me luck . paul : okay . good luck . [ scene_break ] victor : sit down , son . ( sighs ) let me ask you something . does it really surprise you that i feel partly responsible for what happened to sharon ? that she went to hawaii because of what i had done to uncover what i had done hiding skye lockhart ? nick : there 's more to this than guilt or family obligation , dad . i mean , be honest . if this were phyllis in this situation , would you be reacting the same way ? victor : unlikely . nick : yeah , you 've always had a soft spot for sharon . victor : son , who would n't have a soft spot for her knowing about her childhood , knowing how tough that was ? and then she marries you , time to get all that behind her , only to lose her children and to lose you to phyllis . and then she gets involved with that psychopath adam . that 's too much for any one person to deal with . she 's alone , and it saddens me . nick : look , if you think you can change sharon back to the person she used to be , you ca n't . so give it up . sharon 's changed now . now whether that was under the influence of adam , i do n't know . but she is reckless , and she is unreliable . dad , i know you do n't want to see that . hell , i did n't want to see it . but i had no choice . i have children depending on me . they have to be my priority . victor : and i understand that . but you do n't think phyllis is unreliable and reckless ? would you prevent phyllis ... ? nick : ( sighs ) victor : from seeing her child ? of course you would n't . do you hold phyllis to the same high moral standards that you do sharon ? you and i both know the answer to that . it 's no . and i do n't understand that . [ scene_break ] phyllis : you had no right to read that e - mail . you had no warrant . you had no right . ronan : i do n't need a warrant for something that 's in plain sight . phyllis : you do n't ? ronan : no . phyllis : okay , so i guess the same follows with you . this is all in plain sight , right ? i do n't need a warrant ... ronan : phyllis , stop it . phyllis : you know ? i can look at anything on your desk . ronan : just listen . okay , that 's enough . just stop . phyllis : what 's all this ? ooh , evidence . ronan : stop . stop it . phyllis : oh , my god . [ scene_break ] avery : adam . adam : what do you want ? avery : got your photos . ( electronic lock beeps ) adam : mm , i do n't know what you 're talking about . avery : i 'll be making a motion for a mistrial within the hour . adam : thanks for sharing . avery : even if it 's successful , sharon probably wo n't go free . at best , it buys me time to figure out how to get that memory card out of the creek and into the hands of the authorities . adam : you violate the attorney - client privileged , and i will have you disbarred . avery : oh , i do n't doubt that for a second . you had no qualms about destroying heather 's career , did you ? [ scene_break ] chance : they said at your office that you were gon na be here . heather : uh , yeah , but , um , i kind of have to keep my head in the game right now , so can we just talk later ? chance : i 'm just checkin ' in . you were n't very happy with me last time we saw each other , so , um ... heather : well , i 'm gon na get over it , but , uh , right now , i , um -- chance : i know . i know . i know . i know . big case . heather : when your work is all you have , you sort of do n't want to blow it , you know what i mean ? chance : yeah . there 's no chance of that happening , by the way . heather , you 're an amazing lawyer , and you 're an even better person . everything 's gon na be fine . everything is gon na be great for you . heather : i wish i had that confidence . ( chuckles ) even more than that ... chance : what ? heather : i just wish i could see myself the way you just described me . [ scene_break ] phyllis : where did that come from ? ronan : why ? phyllis : you dredged the creek , did n't you ? the -- where diane was killed . ronan : do you think that this is somehow related ? phyllis : no , not to the murder . to something else . did someone else look at that ? i mean , did you see it ? ronan : no , i have n't seen this yet . but obviously , you think i should . phyllis : adam had the memory card from sharon 's camera . he had it for a bit , i think . it has audio proof on it that sharon was trying to save skye , not kill her . ronan : i know . i read your blog in `` restless style . `` but the chances that this is the same memory card are just -- phyllis : who throws a memory card in a creek ? who does that ? a betrayed lover . adam . i mean , i think that we should look at it . i - it 's not gon na kill us to look at it , right ? i - i do n't even know if it 's gon na work , because it 's been in water . should we even try ? ronan : well , there 's only one way to find out .

[ scene_break ] ford : lucky for you , i 've got a hard head . otherwise , you might be facing murder charges . eli : uh - huh . robert , i do n't like to be blackmailed . ford : well , the truth is , i did n't like doing it . i mean , seriously , the only reason why i asked for my money that night is because i wanted out . i mean , after that whole mess with langston and then jessica , dude , i just wanted to get some extra cash and get on the first plane out of here . so like i said , eli , your secret is safe with me . so , uh , why hannah ? i mean , what do you have against her ? eli : nothing , actually . she was convenient . ford : hannah ? convenient ? you obviously never met her . eli : no , but you have , have n't you ? and all kinds of people know how distraught she was when you broke up with her and how crazy she 's been acting ever since . so having her locked up made her the perfect scapegoat and killed two birds with one stone . ford : two birds ? who 's the other bird ?

[ thump ] bull : what was that ? james : what ? i did n't hear anything . bull : move . [ scene_break ] jessica : i was scared . everything was a blur . ford was on top of me , and then i looked up , and i saw mitch . and i was really angry , brody , and i shoved him really , really hard . all i could think about was just getting him away from me . and i do n't even remember leaving , so when i found out later that he was in the hospital , i thought that it was me . i thought that i was the one that had hurt him . brody : it was hannah o'connor . ford i.d . 'd her . jessica : i know , but i did n't find out until days later . none of us did . and i thought that it was me that attacked him or that bess or tess came out to defend me . i even went to dr. levin . brody : and you were fine , right ? so why did n't you come to me ? jessica : brody , after i found out that ford was okay and that he accused hannah , i just wanted it to be over . i did . i remembered you , and i remembered bree , and i just wanted to forget about it . brody : so what changed your mind ?

[ scene_break ] ford : lucky for you , i 've got a hard head . otherwise , you might be facing murder charges . eli : uh - huh . robert , i do n't like to be blackmailed . ford : well , the truth is , i did n't like doing it . i mean , seriously , the only reason why i asked for my money that night is because i wanted out . i mean , after that whole mess with langston and then jessica , dude , i just wanted to get some extra cash and get on the first plane out of here . so like i said , eli , your secret is safe with me . so , uh , why hannah ? i mean , what do you have against her ? eli : nothing , actually . she was convenient . ford : hannah ? convenient ? you obviously never met her . eli : no , but you have , have n't you ? and all kinds of people know how distraught she was when you broke up with her and how crazy she 's been acting ever since . so having her locked up made her the perfect scapegoat and killed two birds with one stone . ford : two birds ? who 's the other bird ? [ scene_break ] john : you 're not in a position to ask for anything . hannah : well , i 'm the only one who knows who killed your baby , so that 's got to be worth something . natalie : what do you want ? hannah : immunity . john : if you 're telling the truth , you wo n't need immunity . hannah : full immunity -- from ford , marty , lying about todd , and anything you people dream up . i 'm just protecting myself . you give me full and total immunity , and i 'll tell you who killed your baby .

[ scene_break ] jessica : i was scared . everything was a blur . ford was on top of me , and then i looked up , and i saw mitch . and i was really angry , brody , and i shoved him really , really hard . all i could think about was just getting him away from me . and i do n't even remember leaving , so when i found out later that he was in the hospital , i thought that it was me . i thought that i was the one that had hurt him . brody : it was hannah o'connor . ford i.d . 'd her . jessica : i know , but i did n't find out until days later . none of us did . and i thought that it was me that attacked him or that bess or tess came out to defend me . i even went to dr. levin . brody : and you were fine , right ? so why did n't you come to me ? jessica : brody , after i found out that ford was okay and that he accused hannah , i just wanted it to be over . i did . i remembered you , and i remembered bree , and i just wanted to forget about it . brody : so what changed your mind ?

nothing . he continued to run his company he built by stealing his father 's assets . to apologize now ... nick : i am sorry that i had to stoop to my brother 's level in some of my business dealings , but , even at my worst , it does n't come close to what my brother has done . he went behind my back and stole my company , bought up the debt . he then tried to trade the company for my son . he tried to use that little boy as a bargaining chip . adam : okay , that 's a bit dramatic . & nick : but he still owns my company because i will never , ever barter with my son . not ever . that is the difference between you and me and why he has no business raising my son . kyle : hey . lola : hi . kyle : [ sighs ] i 'm sorry i was n't able to talk about this yesterday . i needed a little time . lola : it 's okay . i understand . kyle : i can see you looking at me differently because of what you overheard , or whatever theo told you -- lola : i do n't care about what theo said . kyle : [ sighs ] lola : i care about what you have to say . so can you just talk to me ?

i really want to lease space in your new hotel . phyllis : i know you do , and i have thought about it . now , i want to ask you this question . do you think it 's realistic to be able to replicate the success of society in another location ? abby : look , i thought a lot about that recently , and you 're right . i do n't want to repeat myself . so i refined my idea to fit your space . i want the whole first floor of the hotel to be a lounge . soft music with an infectious groove , a common area with bars , drinks flowing , a pink felt pool table . i want it to feel like an exclusive house party where work meets play . phyllis : i wanted to hate it . abby : but you do n't ?

chelsea : i want to apologize for knocking you unconscious the night i left town . and for putting you in the hospital . sharon : really ? chelsea : i was feeling cornered and desperate . sharon : okay , because we were never actually able to prove that that was you . so the fact that you 're admitting it now , that 's something . chelsea : i 'm trying to own what i 've done , sharon , acknowledge that people were hurt by my actions . sharon : okay , well , thank you for that . chelsea : and are you feeling guilty for anything you 've done ? sharon : what would i have to feel guilty about ? chelsea : um , encouraging adam 's interest in connor and christian ? look what that has led to . he is trying to take christian away from nick . i mean , sending the tabloids , that bogus article , releasing that video ? we both know that was adam 's doing . sharon : i 'm sure it was , but i have nothing to do with it . chelsea : you awoke something else in him instead . i mean , you may have been trying to appeal to his better angel , but now he 's got all sorts of a god complex , okay ? i mean , he really thinks that he 's the only man on the planet that can raise those two boys , and he does n't care who he has to step on to get that done ! sharon : and you 're trying to blame that on me ? adam is a grown man . why do n't we blame him for his own behavior ? i actually told him that i think what he 's doing is wrong , and in our last conversation , i even called him a cold - hearted bastard . chelsea : well , i think you came to that realization a little too late . sharon : come on , chelsea . you are the one responsible for putting adam on his current path . hiding connor from him and deciding to stay with nick ? i mean , you had to know how adam was gon na react to that . chelsea : my husband had just passed away . sharon : well , i 'm sorry . but why did you come back to genoa city in the first place after you said you had no interest in adam and you were apparently happily remarried and living a new life ? chelsea : i knew adam would never accept the fact that i 'd moved on . i knew i had to handle it myself , in person . sharon : you 're probably right about that . because when adam first got back here , you 're all he talked about . you and connor . and when he finally realized there was no hope of a reconciliation , that 's when he started spinning out . chelsea : i think adam just put his focus on me so he could distract himself from what he really wanted . sharon : which is what ? chelsea : you , sharon . i knew it the first time i heard your voice when you left me that message on his behalf . sharon : i was calling you because he wanted to try to spare you the shock of hearing a voice from a dead man . chelsea : and yet , he chose to ask you for help over anybody else . and that 's because , for adam , it 's always been you . nick : when it comes to adam 's character , shady business dealings are just the ground floor . he begins with embezzlement , and the goes to blackmail , and then goes up from there . brenda : he 's making wild accusations , your honor . nick : he faked his own death , he tried to frame me for murder . he 's been charged with murder himself . brenda : charges that were dropped due to lack of evidence . this is character assassination . nick : and this is the man you want to give my son to ? that 's enough , mr . newman . perhaps you should have retained a new attorney to prevent you from making these sorts of outbursts . nick : you know he stole my other child , too , faith ? when she was a baby , right away from her mother . adam : you really want to drag sharon into this , nick ? nick : you should n't be allowed anywhere near her -- faith , either . gentlemen ! gentlemen ! brenda : again , there were any charges brought , no proof of what he 's saying . nick : because he lies and manipulates his way out of trouble . adam : you might want to take a breath , man . nick : shut up . adam : your honor , my brother is grasping at straws , trying to act like he 's some paragon of virtue , but you saw the video surveillance , which is concrete evidence of his character . nick : adam is an expert at covering his tracks and erasing his bad deeds , and since he released that video , i have no proof , which means he 's gon na get away with it because he gets away with everything . well , i guess not everything . not delia . kyle : i was on the rebound and fell in with theo and his friends , got caught up in a lifestyle ... let me back up . i was n't caught up . i was on board . and some of it was fun , like , really fun . we did the bars in brooklyn , late dinners in manhattan , weekends in the hamptons ... lola : you were young guys in the city partying . kyle : for days on ends and nights that never seemed to . when you have unlimited funds and bottomless drinks , and ... designer drugs , it can make you feel invincible . lola : i assume it was n't just you and the guys . kyle : [ sighs ] there were women . lots of women . most of the time when i hooked up , we were using each other . they wanted to hang out in a certain crowd , and i wanted to escape . some of the girls wanted more , but i did n't care how they felt . i only cared about my feelings , or lack thereof . there was a certain numbness that appealed to me . lola , i 'm laying out the unvarnished truth because you asked me to . so , please , just say something . sharon : you 're wrong about adam and me . i mean , yes , we 've had a long and complicated relationship , but , clearly , adam is in love with you . chelsea : we loved each other very deeply , yeah . and i know he loved our life with connor , but ... it 's not the same . sharon : well , i have moved on . i am living with a great guy now . chelsea : but it must have gotten a little complicated when adam returned from the dead and you got all tangled up with him again . sharon : um , rey understood that i was just trying to help a friend . and adam is not gon na be an issue for us anymore . chelsea : there is a reason victor enlisted you to help adam gain his memory back . he knows that you can get through to him more than anybody else . sharon : victor did n't know how to find you . chelsea : you 've always been the constant in his life , sharon . for better or for worse . i mean , you understand him in ways that nobody else does . so ... you can steer him away from his worst impulses . sharon : i tried , and i failed . like you said , i maybe made things worse . chelsea : but try again ! sharon : i can't . i have got to remove myself from this whole situation . chelsea : he is going after christian . before we know it , he 's gon na be coming after connor . sharon : that 's not my fight . have you thought about sitting down with adam and trying to reason with him ? you and nick . try to come up with a plan that works for all of you . chelsea : reason with him ? really ? sharon : look , i 've told adam that i hate the way he 's handled this . but , honestly , adam is connor and christian 's biological father . does n't he deserve to have some role in their lives ? chelsea : not this version of adam . sharon : you know why he 's lashing out and why his relationship with his sons is so important to him . he did n't know victor , and , because of that , it really shaped adam 's life , and it made him feel like an outsider . he 's just trying to spare christian from having that same feeling . chelsea : but christian does n't need to be spared . from anything ! he has a wonderful father , a father that adam actually chose for him . sharon : i agree with you . chelsea : [ sighs ] sharon : so , is the current plan to keep the kids away from their father the rest of their lives ? chelsea : i am just worried about today . i 'm worried about the well - being of those two innocent boys . sharon : and you ca n't see things from adam 's point of view at all ? chelsea : not when he 's acting out of vindictive rage , no . my priority is to protect those kids . and the one thing i am counting is adam has always had one line that he would never cross , and that is hurting his children . but if he continues with this custody case and really rips christian away from nick , that is exactly what he will be doing . it will be the end of the adam you and i ever knew , sharon . he will be a lost cause . you 'll never believe he 's a lost cause , will you ? then you need to be the one to talk him out of this . adam : i was wondering how low you would be willing to sink , but this ... nick : you ran over a little girl . adam : it was an accident . a terrible accident ! brenda : which my client has paid for in many ways . nick : only after he got caught . he lied to everyone about it , including delia 's parents . control yourself , mr . newman . nick : he then took advantage of their grief by convincing them to have delia be an organ donor for his son . adam : do n't do this , nick . do n't do it . it 's beneath you . nick : you are the only one who will do and say anything to get what you want , but christian is my son . do you hear me ? he is mine , and i will not let you get away with this ! enough ! nick : your honor , i -- not another word . i know this a highly charged situation . and , frankly , i need some time to review all of this new material . i will let you know when i 've made a decision . this hearing is adjourned . abby : listen . i understand why you would be wary about going into business with me , but i am just as wary of you . phyllis : so why take the chance ? abby : because i want something from you , and you need something from me . we 're both smart , and we both have learned enough life lessons to know how to watch our backs . phyllis : okay , so are you willing to take the blowback from your family ? abby : i will tell them exactly what i will tell you right now . you are going into business with me and not my family . phyllis : i mean , we 're not friends . abby : no . phyllis : no . abby : no , just like you 're in business with adam , and you 're not friends with him , right ? phyllis : touché . abby : listen , we have everything we need to do this deal right now . we can build off of each other 's momentum , we can expand our brands , and we can make a lot of money in the process . phyllis : it 's a really good pitch , as long as it goes how you 're describing it . abby : yes , there 's always risks , but i never pictured you as being risk- adverse . phyllis : no . nobody has ever accused me of that . abby : unless you 're getting to that point in your life where you have to be a little bit more , you know , conservative . phyllis : [ laughs ] if you 're trying to work me , you have to work a little harder than that . abby : point taken . what do you say ? phyllis : um ... hey , what the hell ? get me the numbers . let 's go for it . abby : it 's gon na be a wild ride . chelsea : how did it go ? i saw the video of you impersonating j.t . nick : yeah , i 'm sure the whole world 's seen it by now . i 'm not proud of what i did . do n't really have an excuse . [ sighs ] i was just mad , you know ? mad at my dad , mad at the whole world . chelsea : you do n't have to explain . i know who you are . i also know this was adam 's vicious attempt to try to paint you in the worst possible light . nick : well , i think i did a pretty good of that myself today in court . everything i said came out wrong . now i 'm really concerned that i may lose christian . let 's see , aleve is proven better on pain `` the young and the restless `` will continue . phyllis : hey ! right on time , i like that . theo : i would n't show up late to meet genoa city 's hottest new real estate developer . phyllis : mm , thank you . okay , well , we have a million things to take care of before the opening of the hotel . so , one of the main things is i still have not decided on a name . if you have any ideas , i mean ... theo : i might . phyllis : shoot . theo : i 've been thinking about your story , how you rose from the ashes after jabot . how about the grand phoenix ? phyllis : that 's actually on the list . wow , um , i like it . it 's catchy . but it 's not exactly subtle . theo : neither are you . phyllis : that 's fair . theo : it 's bold , direct , and sends a clear message . phyllis : i like the way your mind thinks , which is why i decided to hire you to help me with the opening of ... the grand phoenix . theo : the grand phoenix . theo : i 'm in . phyllis : great . theo : can you tell me more about your vision for the space ? phyllis : okay , all right . i have a very particular vision . it 's a destination boutique hotel . it 's fun and it has an artistic vibe , and it caters to the celebrity , the entertainer , the influencer , world traveler . is there somebody you need to talk to ? theo : not at all . phyllis : okay , because i do n't feel like i have your full attention . phyllis : just sent you the first 15 a - listers for our guest list . [ cellphone chimes ] phyllis : oh , you did . all right . oh , a man who knows what he 's doing . i like that . terrific . thank you . summer : [ clears throat ] phyllis : all right , so -- summer : hey . theo : hi . phyllis : i like these names . summer : um , our table 's ready . you ready ? theo : yeah , absolutely . phyllis : oh , great . summer : hi , mom . phyllis : hey , honey . theo : to be continued . your opening is in good hands . trust me . phyllis : do n't make me regret this . lola : thank you for being so honest . i know this is hard to talk about . kyle : i just hope it does n't change things between us . lola : i do n't want it to . i know that you had a life before me , and ... that you 're from a very different world that i do n't know much about . kyle : [ sighs ] it was a very specific time , and i was in a bad place . lola : you know , it breaks my heart thinking about you like that . and i ca n't help but wonder who could have made you feel so sad . kyle : what -- this was not about her . lola : somehow , everything always comes back to summer . nick : i made such a mistake going into court without a lawyer . i felt really confident , you know ? i felt like it was so obvious that he should come home with me . i really thought i could do it on my own . chelsea : because christian does belong with you . nick : not after today . i let my emotions get the best of me . chelsea : you 're human . of course you 're gon na get emotional when you 're fighting for your son . nick : and i let adam bait me . he played so perfectly . he just sat there with that smile on his face . i tried to call him out to the judge , but i just got wrapped up in his lies and his tricks , and i -- [ sighs ] i lost sight of what i was trying to get across , which is how much i love that little boy . chelsea : listen , i 'm confident the judge saw your love for him , okay ? it does n't matter what you said or what you did n't say . it 's in your eyes , nick . it 's written all over your face . i 'm sure he saw what i saw , that you are a great man and that christian belongs with you . nick : thank you . i ca n't tell you enough how much it means to me that you 're here with me . thank you . adam : no , monique , i do n't need an appointment to see my own brother . adam : oh , well , is n't this cute ? behind every man is a woman who feels sorry for him . chelsea : get the hell out of here , adam . adam : i only came to console nick and to tell you not to blame yourself for how today went . and to let you know that i will make the transition as smooth and painless as possible . nick : pride comes before the fall , huh ? is that the saying ? adam : well , pride and confidence are two different things that i know how to separate . nick : no , you never have . adam : well , it 's my confidence that assures me of tomorrow 's outcome . nick : you ai n't won nothing yet . adam : well , not technically . nick : not legally . adam : look , come on , nick . do n't fool yourself . in your heart , you know the judge is gon na rule in my favor . and the look on your face said it at all the end of the hearing . chelsea : all right , if you 're here gloating , uh , i take it sharon did n't speak to you ? adam : speak to me about what ? chelsea : i saw her earlier . she is just as angry as we are about you suing for custody . adam : oh , i am quite aware . she told me . i think our conversation we had , uh , might have been our last . chelsea : so she did n't talk any sense into you ? adam : nope , but it sure is nice to know that both of you care enough to put your heads together to try to fix me . chelsea : listen . listen . stop , stop . listen . we are not trying to fix you . we are trying to help you . we all know why you 're acting like this . adam : do you ? chelsea : it has everything to do with victor and nothing to do with you wanting to hurt your own child . so why do n't we just -- why do n't we just talk this out , come up with a solution ? adam : you want to find a solution ? chelsea : yes . adam : well . there might be something . chelsea : tell me what it is . adam : come home with me . right now . no questions asked . chelsea : what ? adam : all right ? we can go back to the penthouse , we can get connor . he can live with us . everything will go back to the way it was before i died . nick : get the hell out of my house . adam : not until chelsea answers my question . nick : chelsea ? adam : nick ... chelsea : and you would drop the custody fight for christian . adam : yes . there 's your solution . kyle : i was n't think about summer when i was in new york . she was an excuse i used to do whatever the hell i wanted , sleep with whoever i wanted , party as hard i wanted , and not give a damn . lola : what about when you got back , kyle ? kyle : yes , i pursued her . but i was burned out and jaded , and it was like a game . there was n't anything real left between us . lola : well , she did n't think so because , eventually , she wanted you back . kyle : but it was too late . because , on a random wednesday , i went to a food truck and ordered a cuban sandwich . that was the day everything changed , the day i decided i wanted to become a better man because a pretty girl smiled at me . and , in that smile , i saw ... [ sighs ] everything . lola : [ chuckles ] summer : uh , so you working with my mom is a little weird . theo : is it ? i mean , i know you guys are n't on the best of terms , but she 's smart , and she has a lot going on . summer : mm - hmm , yeah , and she 's made an enemy of practically everyone in town . theo : well , doing business at a high level wo n't make you a lot of friends . summer : yeah , no , especially when you stab them all in the back . theo : is this all about your mom , or is there something else going on ? summer : i do n't know , um ... maybe it 's a cumulative effect . just everything with my mom , and dad 's going through this custody suit . i just -- i do n't need any more drama right now . theo : well , if i do my job well , working with your mom should be drama - free . summer : yeah , famous last words . theo : the hotel launch could be good for both of us . i can get some of the lp roster there , you can network with some other influencers , and ... imagine this -- it could actually be fun . nick : you 're not seriously considering this , right ? chelsea , don't . we will figure out another way . chelsea : you 'd have to be out of your mind ... to think i 'd go anywhere with you . adam : [ scoffs ] ow . ouch . you really know how to hurt a guy . that should come in handy when you break his heart again . i was n't really testing your feelings for me . i was just trying to see how far you would go for nick . not that far , bro . nick : here 's a thought -- stop trying to trade things for my son because it 's never gon na happen . adam : okay , well , it 's happening sooner than you think , as soon as the judge comes back with his ruling , nick . nick : what makes you think you are worthy of that boy 's love ? adam : okay , i 'm more worthy than you will ever be . chelsea : stop this , both of you ! ( ding ! ) hot pockets ! nick : hey , buddy . you all right ? here you go . adam : hi , buddy . how you doing ? chelsea : are you thirsty ? huh ? why do n't we go get something to drink ? okay . adam : all right , see you later , christian . kyle : i 'm not going to make excuses for the things i 've done or the person i was before i met you . all i can say is i 've changed . lola : i know that . i just ca n't help but notice that there 's a different side of that comes out when you 're with theo . kyle : you might be right . that 's why i have no interest in spending a bunch of time with him . theo 's life is vapid and self - absorbed . i do n't want any part of it . phyllis : yes , everything is in place for summertime , inc . i want you to pull the trigger on the second acquisition we discussed . make it happen now . adam : look , i 'll admit that you took good care of my son while i was gone . and i trust that you will continue to act in his best interests while he adjusts to his new situation . nick : whatever happens in court , i will make you pay for what you 've done , i promise you that . adam : well , forgive me for not losing sleep over your idle threats . nick : you know , you were right about some things today . more right than you realize . i have been a good father to christian . i 'm also that guy in that video . you might want to watch it again just to remember who you 're dealing with . adam : [ chuckles ] | lola asks kyle about his past and he tells her it was full of partying drugs and women whose names he ca n't remeber and lola wonders if he was leading that life because he was sad about summer . kyle tells lola that is n't the entire reason he just lead that life because he had money and he was young . kyle tells lola he does n't want to be like theo because since he met her he knows there are more important things in life . theo meets with phyllis and tells her she should name the hotel the grand phoneix and gives her a list of all the famous people that are going to be at the grand opening of the hotel . phyllis also makes a deal with abbyto open a lounge on the first floor of the hotel where guests can relax and have fun . phyllis calls someone and tells the person to pull the trigger on the next important aquision that they had talked about earlier . the custody hearing begins and nick and adam air each other 's dirty laundry in court after the judge sees the video of nick in the jt mask nick tells the judge adam caused delia 's death so the judge decides to review the new imformation and get back to them later with a decision . chelsea and sharon have a long discussion where chelsea tells sharon that she is the only person that can persude adam to drop the custody suit because she has always understood adam better than anyone else . sharon goes to adam 's place to talk to him but changes her mind before she knocks on the door and leaves without talking to him . nick tells chelsea that he is worried he is going to lose custudy of christian because he should n't have decded not to have a lawyer with him . adam arrives at nick 's place to gloat and then asks chelsea to move in with him so that they can be a family with connor but nick tells chelsea not to do it so she tells adam no and nick tels adam not to underestimate him because he will do anything he has to do to keep custody of christian . | <s>[INST] [ previously_on ] theo : i mean , you know some seriously insane stuff went down in new york , and you may be blocking it out or in denial , or whatever , but it 's a part of who you are . all i 'm saying is , new york defined both of us . nick : sharon , you there ? hello ? chelsea : [ panting ] nick : i do n't understand what a donation has to do with you representing me . michael : i need to withdraw , i need to step down . nick : no . he got to you . michael : what ? nick : adam . somehow , he convinced you to do his bidding . i assume mr . baldwin 's on his way . nick : actually , no . something has come up . adam : according to the chronicle , nick terrorized his father by disguising himself as j.t . hellstrom . nick : your honor , i can explain . brenda : a man who tried to kill victor newman twice . adam : how could you do that to our father ? adam : for months , nicholas newman impersonated j.t . hellstrom , the man that tried to kill his father and also abused his sister . nick : adam planted that story so he could hurt me . adam : i do n't read gossip sites , okay ? but an exclusive like this is probably spreading around town like wildfire . but , more importantly , is it true ? nick : adam . i did it so i could lure j.t . out in the open so he could pay for what he did . brenda : all the while intimidating your father and raiding his company . nick : nobody intimidates my father , and that video does n't give full context for what really happened . i will agree that i went too far , but i 've made amends to my family , and my father and sister have both forgiven me , and that is all that matters . well , i disagree . the purpose of this hearing is to evaluate the family environment in which a child could be raised . [ cellphone chimes ] [ cellphone chimes ] phyllis : oh , wow . well , it 's not a coincidence that this is coming out the morning of christian 's custody hearing . abby : it has adam written all over it . nick : i regret what i did . i truly do . brenda : yet , uh , what did he to do show his remorse ? nothing . he continued to run his company he built by stealing his father 's assets . to apologize now ... nick : i am sorry that i had to stoop to my brother 's level in some of my business dealings , but , even at my worst , it does n't come close to what my brother has done . he went behind my back and stole my company , bought up the debt . he then tried to trade the company for my son . he tried to use that little boy as a bargaining chip . adam : okay , that 's a bit dramatic . & nick : but he still owns my company because i will never , ever barter with my son . not ever . that is the difference between you and me and why he has no business raising my son . kyle : hey . lola : hi . kyle : [ sighs ] i 'm sorry i was n't able to talk about this yesterday . i needed a little time . lola : it 's okay . i understand . kyle : i can see you looking at me differently because of what you overheard , or whatever theo told you -- lola : i do n't care about what theo said . kyle : [ sighs ] lola : i care about what you have to say . so can you just talk to me ? kyle : when i think about those days , it feels like another lifetime , like i 'm talking about a different person . lola : i know , kyle . i know . i know that you 've changed , okay ? but that was n't that long ago . and i can see your wheels turning , trying to figure out what to say to me to make me feel better . can you just tell me the truth ? kyle : it scared me , hearing that my past might keep you from wanting to get married . lola : i 'm sorry , i did n't mean for it to come out as an ultimatum . but the more reluctant you are to talk to me about all this , the more worried that i get , kyle . look , whatever happened ... i 'm hoping that we can get it all out there , okay ? so we can deal with it and put it behind us . kyle : [ sighs ] if that 's what you need ... i 'll tell you everything . brenda : we just saw the video , showing the lengths nick was willing to go to start dark horse . knowing how much it obviously meant to him , it makes perfect that adam might offer the company back to nick in hopes that he would convince him to do right by christian . adam : that footage tells us everything we need to know about how nick treats family . nick : oh , spare me the phony outrage . your honor , adam told me weeks ago that he had this video . now , i was n't sure how he was planning to use it against me , but i knew it would come out , and i knew it would n't be subtle . the fact that he released it to the tabloids on this day , of all days , just proves it is a desperate ploy , one to distract you from the fact that i have been a great father to this boy . i have loved and cared for him every day that he has been with me , even during the time adam was off skulking around in vegas playing in high - stakes poker games and doing god knows what else . brenda : my client had no memory of his son because he had amnesia resulting from an attempt on his life . nick : not the first time someone has tried to kill you . that should tell you something . okay , mr . newman . brenda : once adam got his memory back , he wanted nothing more than to be reunited with christian . nick : oh , yeah , he tried to haggle for my son . i got to give him credit . he did go all - in . adam : no , i tried to work with nick to find a solution regarding custody because i know how he can get when things do n't go his way . he becomes ruthless , angry , cruel . a real nick is right there on that security footage . by the way , where was christian when you were running around in the mask , terrorizing dad ? i am worried about leaving that little boy in my brother 's custody . he is obviously lackng in sound judgment , and he can not control his impulses ... counselor , please . adam : ... which makes him an unsuitable guardian . nick : you gave up any rights to that boy when you changed the paternity test , when you gave him to me for his own good . now , you want to talk about who is cruel and ruthless , let 's do that because you wrote the book on it . sharon : i heard you were back in town . returning to the scene of the crime ? additional sponsorship phyllis : well , i tried to talk adam out of suing for custody , but you know there 's no stopping him . abby : well , he 's in for a big surprise if he thinks he can steamroll nick . phyllis : nick 's a great father , we all know that . abby : mm - hmm . phyllis : he has a solid case . and adam should not underestimate nick 's ability to fight dirty . abby : they 're both formidable . speaking of , have you thought any more about my proposition ? i really want to lease space in your new hotel . phyllis : i know you do , and i have thought about it . now , i want to ask you this question . do you think it 's realistic to be able to replicate the success of society in another location ? abby : look , i thought a lot about that recently , and you 're right . i do n't want to repeat myself . so i refined my idea to fit your space . i want the whole first floor of the hotel to be a lounge . soft music with an infectious groove , a common area with bars , drinks flowing , a pink felt pool table . i want it to feel like an exclusive house party where work meets play . phyllis : i wanted to hate it . abby : but you do n't ? phyllis : i don't . abby : you do n't ? phyllis : it 's pretty great . it has a lot of potential . but we have one obvious problem -- both sides of your family hate me . why should i do business with you ? chelsea : i want to apologize for knocking you unconscious the night i left town . and for putting you in the hospital . sharon : really ? chelsea : i was feeling cornered and desperate . sharon : okay , because we were never actually able to prove that that was you . so the fact that you 're admitting it now , that 's something . chelsea : i 'm trying to own what i 've done , sharon , acknowledge that people were hurt by my actions . sharon : okay , well , thank you for that . chelsea : and are you feeling guilty for anything you 've done ? sharon : what would i have to feel guilty about ? chelsea : um , encouraging adam 's interest in connor and christian ? look what that has led to . he is trying to take christian away from nick . i mean , sending the tabloids , that bogus article , releasing that video ? we both know that was adam 's doing . sharon : i 'm sure it was , but i have nothing to do with it . chelsea : you awoke something else in him instead . i mean , you may have been trying to appeal to his better angel , but now he 's got all sorts of a god complex , okay ? i mean , he really thinks that he 's the only man on the planet that can raise those two boys , and he does n't care who he has to step on to get that done ! sharon : and you 're trying to blame that on me ? adam is a grown man . why do n't we blame him for his own behavior ? i actually told him that i think what he 's doing is wrong , and in our last conversation , i even called him a cold - hearted bastard . chelsea : well , i think you came to that realization a little too late . sharon : come on , chelsea . you are the one responsible for putting adam on his current path . hiding connor from him and deciding to stay with nick ? i mean , you had to know how adam was gon na react to that . chelsea : my husband had just passed away . sharon : well , i 'm sorry . but why did you come back to genoa city in the first place after you said you had no interest in adam and you were apparently happily remarried and living a new life ? chelsea : i knew adam would never accept the fact that i 'd moved on . i knew i had to handle it myself , in person . sharon : you 're probably right about that . because when adam first got back here , you 're all he talked about . you and connor . and when he finally realized there was no hope of a reconciliation , that 's when he started spinning out . chelsea : i think adam just put his focus on me so he could distract himself from what he really wanted . sharon : which is what ? chelsea : you , sharon . i knew it the first time i heard your voice when you left me that message on his behalf . sharon : i was calling you because he wanted to try to spare you the shock of hearing a voice from a dead man . chelsea : and yet , he chose to ask you for help over anybody else . and that 's because , for adam , it 's always been you . nick : when it comes to adam 's character , shady business dealings are just the ground floor . he begins with embezzlement , and the goes to blackmail , and then goes up from there . brenda : he 's making wild accusations , your honor . nick : he faked his own death , he tried to frame me for murder . he 's been charged with murder himself . brenda : charges that were dropped due to lack of evidence . this is character assassination . nick : and this is the man you want to give my son to ? that 's enough , mr . newman . perhaps you should have retained a new attorney to prevent you from making these sorts of outbursts . nick : you know he stole my other child , too , faith ? when she was a baby , right away from her mother . adam : you really want to drag sharon into this , nick ? nick : you should n't be allowed anywhere near her -- faith , either . gentlemen ! gentlemen ! brenda : again , there were any charges brought , no proof of what he 's saying . nick : because he lies and manipulates his way out of trouble . adam : you might want to take a breath , man . nick : shut up . adam : your honor , my brother is grasping at straws , trying to act like he 's some paragon of virtue , but you saw the video surveillance , which is concrete evidence of his character . nick : adam is an expert at covering his tracks and erasing his bad deeds , and since he released that video , i have no proof , which means he 's gon na get away with it because he gets away with everything . well , i guess not everything . not delia . kyle : i was on the rebound and fell in with theo and his friends , got caught up in a lifestyle ... let me back up . i was n't caught up . i was on board . and some of it was fun , like , really fun . we did the bars in brooklyn , late dinners in manhattan , weekends in the hamptons ... lola : you were young guys in the city partying . kyle : for days on ends and nights that never seemed to . when you have unlimited funds and bottomless drinks , and ... designer drugs , it can make you feel invincible . lola : i assume it was n't just you and the guys . kyle : [ sighs ] there were women . lots of women . most of the time when i hooked up , we were using each other . they wanted to hang out in a certain crowd , and i wanted to escape . some of the girls wanted more , but i did n't care how they felt . i only cared about my feelings , or lack thereof . there was a certain numbness that appealed to me . lola , i 'm laying out the unvarnished truth because you asked me to . so , please , just say something . sharon : you 're wrong about adam and me . i mean , yes , we 've had a long and complicated relationship , but , clearly , adam is in love with you . chelsea : we loved each other very deeply , yeah . and i know he loved our life with connor , but ... it 's not the same . sharon : well , i have moved on . i am living with a great guy now . chelsea : but it must have gotten a little complicated when adam returned from the dead and you got all tangled up with him again . sharon : um , rey understood that i was just trying to help a friend . and adam is not gon na be an issue for us anymore . chelsea : there is a reason victor enlisted you to help adam gain his memory back . he knows that you can get through to him more than anybody else . sharon : victor did n't know how to find you . chelsea : you 've always been the constant in his life , sharon . for better or for worse . i mean , you understand him in ways that nobody else does . so ... you can steer him away from his worst impulses . sharon : i tried , and i failed . like you said , i maybe made things worse . chelsea : but try again ! sharon : i can't . i have got to remove myself from this whole situation . chelsea : he is going after christian . before we know it , he 's gon na be coming after connor . sharon : that 's not my fight . have you thought about sitting down with adam and trying to reason with him ? you and nick . try to come up with a plan that works for all of you . chelsea : reason with him ? really ? sharon : look , i 've told adam that i hate the way he 's handled this . but , honestly , adam is connor and christian 's biological father . does n't he deserve to have some role in their lives ? chelsea : not this version of adam . sharon : you know why he 's lashing out and why his relationship with his sons is so important to him . he did n't know victor , and , because of that , it really shaped adam 's life , and it made him feel like an outsider . he 's just trying to spare christian from having that same feeling . chelsea : but christian does n't need to be spared . from anything ! he has a wonderful father , a father that adam actually chose for him . sharon : i agree with you . chelsea : [ sighs ] sharon : so , is the current plan to keep the kids away from their father the rest of their lives ? chelsea : i am just worried about today . i 'm worried about the well - being of those two innocent boys . sharon : and you ca n't see things from adam 's point of view at all ? chelsea : not when he 's acting out of vindictive rage , no . my priority is to protect those kids . and the one thing i am counting is adam has always had one line that he would never cross , and that is hurting his children . but if he continues with this custody case and really rips christian away from nick , that is exactly what he will be doing . it will be the end of the adam you and i ever knew , sharon . he will be a lost cause . you 'll never believe he 's a lost cause , will you ? then you need to be the one to talk him out of this . adam : i was wondering how low you would be willing to sink , but this ... nick : you ran over a little girl . adam : it was an accident . a terrible accident ! brenda : which my client has paid for in many ways . nick : only after he got caught . he lied to everyone about it , including delia 's parents . control yourself , mr . newman . nick : he then took advantage of their grief by convincing them to have delia be an organ donor for his son . adam : do n't do this , nick . do n't do it . it 's beneath you . nick : you are the only one who will do and say anything to get what you want , but christian is my son . do you hear me ? he is mine , and i will not let you get away with this ! enough ! nick : your honor , i -- not another word . i know this a highly charged situation . and , frankly , i need some time to review all of this new material . i will let you know when i 've made a decision . this hearing is adjourned . abby : listen . i understand why you would be wary about going into business with me , but i am just as wary of you . phyllis : so why take the chance ? abby : because i want something from you , and you need something from me . we 're both smart , and we both have learned enough life lessons to know how to watch our backs . phyllis : okay , so are you willing to take the blowback from your family ? abby : i will tell them exactly what i will tell you right now . you are going into business with me and not my family . phyllis : i mean , we 're not friends . abby : no . phyllis : no . abby : no , just like you 're in business with adam , and you 're not friends with him , right ? phyllis : touché . abby : listen , we have everything we need to do this deal right now . we can build off of each other 's momentum , we can expand our brands , and we can make a lot of money in the process . phyllis : it 's a really good pitch , as long as it goes how you 're describing it . abby : yes , there 's always risks , but i never pictured you as being risk- adverse . phyllis : no . nobody has ever accused me of that . abby : unless you 're getting to that point in your life where you have to be a little bit more , you know , conservative . phyllis : [ laughs ] if you 're trying to work me , you have to work a little harder than that . abby : point taken . what do you say ? phyllis : um ... hey , what the hell ? get me the numbers . let 's go for it . abby : it 's gon na be a wild ride . chelsea : how did it go ? i saw the video of you impersonating j.t . nick : yeah , i 'm sure the whole world 's seen it by now . i 'm not proud of what i did . do n't really have an excuse . [ sighs ] i was just mad , you know ? mad at my dad , mad at the whole world . chelsea : you do n't have to explain . i know who you are . i also know this was adam 's vicious attempt to try to paint you in the worst possible light . nick : well , i think i did a pretty good of that myself today in court . everything i said came out wrong . now i 'm really concerned that i may lose christian . let 's see , aleve is proven better on pain `` the young and the restless `` will continue . phyllis : hey ! right on time , i like that . theo : i would n't show up late to meet genoa city 's hottest new real estate developer . phyllis : mm , thank you . okay , well , we have a million things to take care of before the opening of the hotel . so , one of the main things is i still have not decided on a name . if you have any ideas , i mean ... theo : i might . phyllis : shoot . theo : i 've been thinking about your story , how you rose from the ashes after jabot . how about the grand phoenix ? phyllis : that 's actually on the list . wow , um , i like it . it 's catchy . but it 's not exactly subtle . theo : neither are you . phyllis : that 's fair . theo : it 's bold , direct , and sends a clear message . phyllis : i like the way your mind thinks , which is why i decided to hire you to help me with the opening of ... the grand phoenix . theo : the grand phoenix . theo : i 'm in . phyllis : great . theo : can you tell me more about your vision for the space ? phyllis : okay , all right . i have a very particular vision . it 's a destination boutique hotel . it 's fun and it has an artistic vibe , and it caters to the celebrity , the entertainer , the influencer , world traveler . is there somebody you need to talk to ? theo : not at all . phyllis : okay , because i do n't feel like i have your full attention . phyllis : just sent you the first 15 a - listers for our guest list . [ cellphone chimes ] phyllis : oh , you did . all right . oh , a man who knows what he 's doing . i like that . terrific . thank you . summer : [ clears throat ] phyllis : all right , so -- summer : hey . theo : hi . phyllis : i like these names . summer : um , our table 's ready . you ready ? theo : yeah , absolutely . phyllis : oh , great . summer : hi , mom . phyllis : hey , honey . theo : to be continued . your opening is in good hands . trust me . phyllis : do n't make me regret this . lola : thank you for being so honest . i know this is hard to talk about . kyle : i just hope it does n't change things between us . lola : i do n't want it to . i know that you had a life before me , and ... that you 're from a very different world that i do n't know much about . kyle : [ sighs ] it was a very specific time , and i was in a bad place . lola : you know , it breaks my heart thinking about you like that . and i ca n't help but wonder who could have made you feel so sad . kyle : what -- this was not about her . lola : somehow , everything always comes back to summer . nick : i made such a mistake going into court without a lawyer . i felt really confident , you know ? i felt like it was so obvious that he should come home with me . i really thought i could do it on my own . chelsea : because christian does belong with you . nick : not after today . i let my emotions get the best of me . chelsea : you 're human . of course you 're gon na get emotional when you 're fighting for your son . nick : and i let adam bait me . he played so perfectly . he just sat there with that smile on his face . i tried to call him out to the judge , but i just got wrapped up in his lies and his tricks , and i -- [ sighs ] i lost sight of what i was trying to get across , which is how much i love that little boy . chelsea : listen , i 'm confident the judge saw your love for him , okay ? it does n't matter what you said or what you did n't say . it 's in your eyes , nick . it 's written all over your face . i 'm sure he saw what i saw , that you are a great man and that christian belongs with you . nick : thank you . i ca n't tell you enough how much it means to me that you 're here with me . thank you . adam : no , monique , i do n't need an appointment to see my own brother . adam : oh , well , is n't this cute ? behind every man is a woman who feels sorry for him . chelsea : get the hell out of here , adam . adam : i only came to console nick and to tell you not to blame yourself for how today went . and to let you know that i will make the transition as smooth and painless as possible . nick : pride comes before the fall , huh ? is that the saying ? adam : well , pride and confidence are two different things that i know how to separate . nick : no , you never have . adam : well , it 's my confidence that assures me of tomorrow 's outcome . nick : you ai n't won nothing yet . adam : well , not technically . nick : not legally . adam : look , come on , nick . do n't fool yourself . in your heart , you know the judge is gon na rule in my favor . and the look on your face said it at all the end of the hearing . chelsea : all right , if you 're here gloating , uh , i take it sharon did n't speak to you ? adam : speak to me about what ? chelsea : i saw her earlier . she is just as angry as we are about you suing for custody . adam : oh , i am quite aware . she told me . i think our conversation we had , uh , might have been our last . chelsea : so she did n't talk any sense into you ? adam : nope , but it sure is nice to know that both of you care enough to put your heads together to try to fix me . chelsea : listen . listen . stop , stop . listen . we are not trying to fix you . we are trying to help you . we all know why you 're acting like this . adam : do you ? chelsea : it has everything to do with victor and nothing to do with you wanting to hurt your own child . so why do n't we just -- why do n't we just talk this out , come up with a solution ? adam : you want to find a solution ? chelsea : yes . adam : well . there might be something . chelsea : tell me what it is . adam : come home with me . right now . no questions asked . chelsea : what ? adam : all right ? we can go back to the penthouse , we can get connor . he can live with us . everything will go back to the way it was before i died . nick : get the hell out of my house . adam : not until chelsea answers my question . nick : chelsea ? adam : nick ... chelsea : and you would drop the custody fight for christian . adam : yes . there 's your solution . kyle : i was n't think about summer when i was in new york . she was an excuse i used to do whatever the hell i wanted , sleep with whoever i wanted , party as hard i wanted , and not give a damn . lola : what about when you got back , kyle ? kyle : yes , i pursued her . but i was burned out and jaded , and it was like a game . there was n't anything real left between us . lola : well , she did n't think so because , eventually , she wanted you back . kyle : but it was too late . because , on a random wednesday , i went to a food truck and ordered a cuban sandwich . that was the day everything changed , the day i decided i wanted to become a better man because a pretty girl smiled at me . and , in that smile , i saw ... [ sighs ] everything . lola : [ chuckles ] summer : uh , so you working with my mom is a little weird . theo : is it ? i mean , i know you guys are n't on the best of terms , but she 's smart , and she has a lot going on . summer : mm - hmm , yeah , and she 's made an enemy of practically everyone in town . theo : well , doing business at a high level wo n't make you a lot of friends . summer : yeah , no , especially when you stab them all in the back . theo : is this all about your mom , or is there something else going on ? summer : i do n't know , um ... maybe it 's a cumulative effect . just everything with my mom , and dad 's going through this custody suit . i just -- i do n't need any more drama right now . theo : well , if i do my job well , working with your mom should be drama - free . summer : yeah , famous last words . theo : the hotel launch could be good for both of us . i can get some of the lp roster there , you can network with some other influencers , and ... imagine this -- it could actually be fun . nick : you 're not seriously considering this , right ? chelsea , don't . we will figure out another way . chelsea : you 'd have to be out of your mind ... to think i 'd go anywhere with you . adam : [ scoffs ] ow . ouch . you really know how to hurt a guy . that should come in handy when you break his heart again . i was n't really testing your feelings for me . i was just trying to see how far you would go for nick . not that far , bro . nick : here 's a thought -- stop trying to trade things for my son because it 's never gon na happen . adam : okay , well , it 's happening sooner than you think , as soon as the judge comes back with his ruling , nick . nick : what makes you think you are worthy of that boy 's love ? adam : okay , i 'm more worthy than you will ever be . chelsea : stop this , both of you ! ( ding ! ) hot pockets ! nick : hey , buddy . you all right ? here you go . adam : hi , buddy . how you doing ? chelsea : are you thirsty ? huh ? why do n't we go get something to drink ? okay . adam : all right , see you later , christian . kyle : i 'm not going to make excuses for the things i 've done or the person i was before i met you . all i can say is i 've changed . lola : i know that . i just ca n't help but notice that there 's a different side of that comes out when you 're with theo . kyle : you might be right . that 's why i have no interest in spending a bunch of time with him . theo 's life is vapid and self - absorbed . i do n't want any part of it . phyllis : yes , everything is in place for summertime , inc . i want you to pull the trigger on the second acquisition we discussed . make it happen now . adam : look , i 'll admit that you took good care of my son while i was gone . and i trust that you will continue to act in his best interests while he adjusts to his new situation . nick : whatever happens in court , i will make you pay for what you 've done , i promise you that . adam : well , forgive me for not losing sleep over your idle threats . nick : you know , you were right about some things today . more right than you realize . i have been a good father to christian . i 'm also that guy in that video . you might want to watch it again just to remember who you 're dealing with . adam : [ chuckles ]Summarize.[/INST]lola asks kyle about his past and he tells her it was full of partying drugs and women whose names he ca n't remeber and lola wonders if he was leading that life because he was sad about summer . kyle tells lola that is n't the entire reason he just lead that life because he had money and he was young . kyle tells lola he does n't want to be like theo because since he met her he knows there are more important things in life . theo meets with phyllis and tells her she should name the hotel the grand phoneix and gives her a list of all the famous people that are going to be at the grand opening of the hotel . phyllis also makes a deal with abbyto open a lounge on the first floor of the hotel where guests can relax and have fun . phyllis calls someone and tells the person to pull the trigger on the next important aquision that they had talked about earlier . the custody hearing begins and nick and adam air each other 's dirty laundry in court after the judge sees the video of nick in the jt mask nick tells the judge adam caused delia 's death so the judge decides to review the new imformation and get back to them later with a decision . chelsea and sharon have a long discussion where chelsea tells sharon that she is the only person that can persude adam to drop the custody suit because she has always understood adam better than anyone else . sharon goes to adam 's place to talk to him but changes her mind before she knocks on the door and leaves without talking to him . nick tells chelsea that he is worried he is going to lose custudy of christian because he should n't have decded not to have a lawyer with him . adam arrives at nick 's place to gloat and then asks chelsea to move in with him so that they can be a family with connor but nick tells chelsea not to do it so she tells adam no and nick tels adam not to underestimate him because he will do anything he has to do to keep custody of christian .</s> | 17,645 |

[ sighs ] there 's no turning back now .

[ scene_break ] sabrina : you know , what you and maxie were saying earlier , about how much michael loves sonny , how , deep down , he 's loyal to him ... ... i know that 's true . i think that part of what fueled michael 's anger at sonny was ... guilt . because he still does love sonny , even after what happened with aj . and it would just be awful if , after losing one father , michael loses his other father , as well .

[ scene_break ] michael : calm down , morgan ! keep it together . morgan : i wo n't keep anything together . this is your fault . ric : w - what are you talking about ? carly : what 's going on ? what did ric do ? morgan : you know who lured my dad to the warehouse , who used tj as bait , who got my dad shot ? your buddy charlie heinick . you remember him , ric ? you set him free ! carly : is this true ? ric : uh , yes . in exchange for his testimony against julian jerome , charlie heinick was released . but it was n't up to me , okay ? the mayor felt it was much more important to try to bring down julian instead of his employee . carly : you 're acting da . it was your decision to release that man -- wow -- just in time to ambush sonny on his wedding day . ric : wait . what are you implying ? carly : i 'm not implying . i 'm saying it . i am saying that morgan is right . it 's your fault that charlie heinick is free , and it 's your fault that sonny was shot . hell , maybe you wanted it all along . ric : c - carly , come on . you know that 's not true . you know that i 'm loyal to sonny . carly : since when , ric ? ! since you came back a changed man ? and then lied to elizabeth about jake and then married poor nina clay for her money ? when you came to town all those years ago , all you wanted was to take sonny down . well , guess what -- you may have finally succeeded . [ scene_break ] tj : this is not just about shawn ! mr. corinthos cares about me for his own sake . when those thugs called him and told him to drop everything on his wedding day , he did . all right ? he was getting married that day , and he came down there alone and unarmed , just like they said . he took a huge risk . i mean , he could have sent his underlings if he did n't want to be bothered . but he cares . sonny saved me , took a bullet for me . you would n't believe how brave he was , how smart , how strong he was . but right now , he 's suffering because of me -- because of me ! so , no , i 'm not leaving his house , and i 'm not leaving him .

[ scene_break ] olivia : [ sighs ] i knew it . i knew i was right in keeping julian 's son away from him and never letting him know leo was alive , and this is it . this is why -- because he lives a life of violence and killing , and now my leo will never be a part of that . lulu : olivia , can we slow down and just go back to the part where you saw julian at the pier ? what time was that ? olivia : it had to be just about the time the wedding was supposed to start . lulu : oh , my god . olivia : what ? lulu : dante needs to know that julian was there . can you stay here with rocco ? olivia : yeah , of course , honey . lulu : maxie is upstairs with avery . let her know what 's going on . i 'm sorry i have to go . this is really important . [ scene_break ] julian : you know what ? i 'm not gon na be answering any more of your questions without the benefit of counsel . and as it happens , my attorney happens to be out of town right now , visiting her daughter . so i have no intention of calling her back here just to deal with your fishing expedition . so this interrogation that we 're having right here is over . dante : what happened , julian ? what happened ? we were having such a nice little conversation . you were so quick to proclaim your innocence , and now you do n't want to say anything . why do n't you just tell me where you were earlier ? julian : i 'm done , so unless you plan on charging me with a crime , which right now , it does n't look like you have any justification for doing , i 'm walking out that door . [ scene_break ] sam : hey , are you okay ? jason : yeah , sure . why ? sam : why ? uh , i do n't know . you just had to tell the police that you shot three men . jason : yeah . well , does n't bother me , which is pretty disturbing if i think about it . i mean , i know i should be upset about what i did , i should be remorseful , but i 'm not . i heard tj when i ran up to that warehouse . that kid was terrified . they were gon na kill him , so i killed them , and i do n't regret it . sam : those men knew what they were doing . they took an innocent child , and they used him as bait . jason used to say that men like that were asking to die . jason : well , i guess he would n't have a problem with what i did . sam : no , actually , he would be grateful . i mean , sonny was his best friend . he would 've done exactly the same thing . and i ca n't believe i 'm actually talking about him here , of all places . jason : why ? sam : this is where i lost jason . three years ago , he came down to this pier . he was shot in the back ... kicked into the water , and i never saw him again . jason : i 'm sorry . sam : oh . i can remember we were so happy that night . we had just brought danny home . oh , i just ca n't help but wonder if things would have been different , you know , if we had more time together , time as a family . what do you think it would have made it ... even harder for me to lose him ? jason : i do n't know . sam : [ sighs ] jason never wasted time wondering what might have been . that was actually one of his best qualities . and i try to follow by his example . i try to stay present . and i 'm happy -- i am . i mean , i love my life . i love my son , i love ... [ sniffles ] i love patrick , and -- and i love emma , but ... ... standing on this pier ... i ca n't help but think how different my life would have been if jason had n't come down here that night .

[ scene_break ] ric : you 've done everything in your power not to be sonny 's son . i mean , if it was up to you , he 'd be rotting away in prison for the rest of his life , right ? you took his daughter away from him , michael . sonny told me you were n't even gon na come to the wedding . i mean , face it -- you turned your back on him . and what happened when you did that ? who was there for him at that point ? it was me . how do even stand there and pretend to call yourself sonny 's son ? [ scene_break ] julian : go ahead . charge me with sonny 's shooting . that is , if you 've got enough evidence to hold me . no ? i did n't think so . best wishes to your father . i do hope he pulls through . lulu : julian . dante : lulu . lulu : are you under arrest ? julian : well , your husband has nothing to hold me on , so , no , i was just leaving . lulu : so i guess this means julian did n't tell you that he was at the pier today , right around the time of the shooting . [ scene_break ] tracy : the world is full of irony . sonny corinthos woke up this morning thinking that everything was going his way , and now he 's lying in a hospital , fighting for survival . an entire life can change [ snaps fingers ] just like that . paul : give me that pen . tracy : why ? paul : 'cause you 're right . life can change just like that . and it makes no sense clinging to the past or torturing yourself with regrets over things you ca n't change . it is time to move on .

[ scene_break ] tj : this is not just about shawn ! mr. corinthos cares about me for his own sake . when those thugs called him and told him to drop everything on his wedding day , he did . all right ? he was getting married that day , and he came down there alone and unarmed , just like they said . he took a huge risk . i mean , he could have sent his underlings if he did n't want to be bothered . but he cares . sonny saved me , took a bullet for me . you would n't believe how brave he was , how smart , how strong he was . but right now , he 's suffering because of me -- because of me ! so , no , i 'm not leaving his house , and i 'm not leaving him .

[ scene_break ] julian : go ahead . charge me with sonny 's shooting . that is , if you 've got enough evidence to hold me . no ? i did n't think so . best wishes to your father . i do hope he pulls through . lulu : julian . dante : lulu . lulu : are you under arrest ? julian : well , your husband has nothing to hold me on , so , no , i was just leaving . lulu : so i guess this means julian did n't tell you that he was at the pier today , right around the time of the shooting . [ scene_break ] tracy : the world is full of irony . sonny corinthos woke up this morning thinking that everything was going his way , and now he 's lying in a hospital , fighting for survival . an entire life can change [ snaps fingers ] just like that . paul : give me that pen . tracy : why ? paul : 'cause you 're right . life can change just like that . and it makes no sense clinging to the past or torturing yourself with regrets over things you ca n't change . it is time to move on .

rafe : well , i was afraid it could have that kind of effect , but it did have healing powers . i mean , it healed the vampires . lucy : wait a minute , so what are you saying ? if it heals vampires , that it has the opposite effect on vampire slayers ? rafe : well , yeah . i mean , i was kind of afraid of that . it could drain a slayer 's power . lucy : do n't say that . it ca n't be . i mean , i 'm not just thinking about me , but what au ut ian ?

victor : well , maybe they got tired of my standing up at all those meetings , telling them everything they were doing was wrong . besides , i 've spent a considerable portion of my life in public service -- kevin : that was decades ago . and since when does being covert c.i.a . qualify anyone as building commissioner ? frank : kevin , back off . kevin : are n't you the one who taught me that if something looks too good , it probably is ? victor : well , but -- kevin : no , no . no offer like that comes without a price . victor : you know , maybe if you spent less time looking so hard for bad news , your life would n't look as bleak . kevin : and maybe somebody just found themselves a sucker . karen : victor , do n't let him get to you . victor : i certainly won't . i -- i 'm going to go call your mother . she 's going to be so excited . frank : all right , good . karen : i 've got to say , it does sound a little too good to be true . frank : hey , we 've had more than our share of bad news in this town . maybe our luck really is changing . karen : are you sure you do n't want me to take a look at that ?

rafe : well , she 's not su of it yet , but -- what are you doing ? are you trying to cover it up ? she 's going to figure it out . she 's already starting to . ian : not if i can help it . not until i figure out what 's really going on here . rafe : what 's really going -- what are you saying , that there 's more to it ? ian : i do n't know . i 'm not sure . lucy : so , tell me , how is our poor wounded former bloodsucker doing ? alison : lucy , please , i do n't want to be on opposite sides in this -- lucy : i know . ok , you 're right . i 'm sorry . it 's just -- i look at him , and there are so many horrible memories that come with that . alison : are you still upset becausyoyou could n't save me ? lucy : yeah . yeah , i 'm sure that 's part of it . i felt -- listen to me . i am just so glad you 're ok . alison : i know . i 'm glad , and i 'm glad you 're ok , too . lucy : right . i 'm not sure how you did it , though . how could you possibly want to even save him ? alis : : i do n't know . i do n't know . it was just -- i think it was something that livvie had said . she said that she wanted to just love him . and when caleb came back to save livvie , he knew he did n't have any more powers to fight joshua , but he still came back to be with her anyway . lucy : ok , i sort of know something about that . alison : i know . i know you do , and i do , too . and i know you . and if you were there , if you were in that situation , you would have done the exact same thing .

[ scene_break ] jack : i know why you 're saying this . that i should just ... stop all the fighting and give gloria the damn money . ashley : you do ? jack : yeah , you think this will show sharon that i 've turned some corner -- that jack can actually be magnanimous from time to time . ashley : oh , jackie ... that 's not the reason . i mean , that would be an added bonus , but that 's not the reason . jack : so what is ? ashley : because it 's what our father wanted , jack . you 're right , i did n't like gloria , i do n't like gloria , but our father loved her . jack : oh ... ashley : and you and i both know you ca n't choose who you fall in love with . like it or not , gloria made our dad happy . jack : we 're talking about gloria . we 're not talking about love . this woman hoodwinked our father into marrying her while she was still married to tom fisher . then she fleeced him to pay tom fisher . ashley : dad found all that out , and he still loved her . come on , just listen to me for a second . you have to put your personal feelings aside -- we both do -- and just give the woman that dad loved what he wanted her to have . if you can honor what he had and what he wanted to have at the end of his life , jack , maybe , i do n't know , maybe it would help us find some greater happiness . maybe ? jack : wow , if you actually believe that , you 're a better person than i am .

[ sighs ] i want to come through . i want to give her the space she needs . billy : i think that 's a good idea . jack : it 's just hard , especially when i do n't know where any of this is going . i - i 'm not saying i did n't do anything wrong . i - i did n't support her the way i should have during that whole victor thing when she wanted nothing but revenge . all i did was tell her to calm down , to not be so crazy and ... and i should have been more supportive , and ... [ sighs ] i lost her trust , billy , and i do n't know how to get it back . billy : i think you should keep doing what you 're doing . jack : what ? stay away ? it just feels so ... billy : that 's what she asked you to do , is n't it ? i mean , it 's -- i just do n't see the purpose of crowding her right now . jack : you really think that 's the right move ? billy : it 's what she asked you to do , is n't it ? that 's -- that 's all i 'm saying . jack : it 's just so hard , especially when i - i get this sick feeling that she 's leading to some bigger decision . just praying it 's not divorce . billy : i 'm sorry , jack . i mean that . jack : i know you do . thanks . listen , i got -- i got a meeting i got to get to . i got a senior executive staff meeting , so ... billy : so you are gon na see phyllis again . i 'm assuming that she 's not gon na take time off work . jack : no , she would n't do that . maybe i should take your advice and steer clear , miss the meeting myself . billy : yeah , i just think that 's a good idea . jack : yeah , maybe . anyway , thanks for listening to all this . you 're a good brother . billy : not as good as you . jack : well , i 'll keep you posted . billy : yeah . [ door opens ] [ door closes ] ashley : but what happened between jack and you ? phyllis : it 's married - couple stuff . you know how it is . ashley : ca n't be inconsequential , phyllis . you moved out of the house . this is very upsetting . i thought the two of you were happy . phyllis : well , there were times that we pretended everything was fine , and we needed to stop pretending . ashley : that 's it ? i 'm not trying to pry . can i help you in some way ? phyllis : things have been difficult between us for a while , ashley . probably started when victor put marco in my bed . ashley : well , that was n't jack 's fault . phyllis : no , it 's not about fault . it is and it is n't . that is why i 've decided to move into the athletic club so i can sort things out and try to understand why everything has happened . ashley : forgive me . i do n't understand . is this jack 's fault ? is it not jack 's fault ? phyllis : there 's enough blame to go around for everyone . ashley : okay , there 's something you 're not telling me . phyllis : okay , i can not do this . i have a killer headache that i 've been fighting since i woke up . i will upload the kravitz file . i will shoot my comments to you , and that 'll be that . ashley : what about the executive meeting , phyllis ? you should be there . phyllis : with the way things are with jack right now , i do n't think i should attend . it 'll be awkward . ashley : uh -- but -- abby : i 'm not gon na lie . it was the romantic vibe that sold me . i thought that maybe ... never mind . it was a bad idea . stitch : i think it 's a great idea . abby : you do ? stitch : it 's been a long couple months . i do n't want to wait till the weekend . stitch : i do n't want to go anywhere . abby : okay . stitch : just home . let 's go home . we 'll be there in a couple minutes . summer : you handled it just right . you nudged me in the right direction and let me realize what luca was all about . nick : i had my suspicions about the guy , but i did n't have any proof . summer : until you found that reporter . nick : we knew he was getting inside information about newman , and since all the tips were skewed to undermine victoria and the way she was handling the crisis ... summer : luca was the logical source . but i wanted to be wrong about that . i mean , even yesterday when i was setting everything into motion , i just -- i kept hoping . god , why am i so dense ? nick : look , you want to see the best in people . that is an admirable quality . summer : yeah , till it 's not . nick : do n't be so hard on yourself , okay ? you are who you are . and i love who you are . do n't ever change . but we 're gon na have to figure out how you 're gon na handle the situation with luca . summer : oh , no , that decision has already been made . luca : i took an informal role here because i was hoping it would lead to bigger things . victoria : `` hoping `` ? uh , that makes it sound like you were leaving things open to chance when you were n't . you played every angle . luca : this conversation is n't about me . it 's about summer , all right , and what an incredible asset she is to this company . victoria : not anymore . luca : look , yesterday summer stood up for me because she thought you were giving me a raw deal . that kind of integrity in someone is all too rare in this business . she can be extraordinarily invaluable to you , victoria . victoria : as she was to you , leaking secrets about my business ? luca : i used her , yes . what i was n't expecting was ... her , the kind of person she is . she loves her family . and since i 'm the one standing between the newmans and summer , i will happily remove myself from the equation . victoria : [ sighs ] and you expect nothing in return ? luca : oh , i want something . i want you to give your niece another chance . she 's the only reason i would ever stop fighting for this . take her back , victoria . summer : i pretended to be on team luca long enough to see what he was really after , but that was yesterday . today is a new day . nick : time to cut him loose . and i would be very happy to deliver this message for you if you want . summer : i 'm pretty sure i have to handle this myself , dad . nick : summer , if you think you owe luca santori some tender farewell , you do n't . summer : i have to take responsibility . i brought luca into my life , so it 's up to me and nobody else to boot him out of it . stitch : [ laughs ] abby : i want you . jack : good morning . ashley : jack , phyllis told me . i 'm so sorry . jack : oh . thanks . ashley : why did n't you tell me ? jack : well , i was going to . today . in fact , i just came from telling billy . it actually felt good to talk about it , to get it all said out loud . it 's better than my trying to wrap my head around all of this on my own . ashley : i still do n't understand what really happened . jack : phyllis did n't explain it ? ashley : well , i 'm sure she thinks she did , but she was so vague . when i tried to get details , she got upset and ran out of here with a headache . jack : well , that explains it . i called ahead of time , found she 'd been here and left . i would n't be here otherwise . ashley : why ? you do n't want to see her ? jack : of course i do . i just do n't want to ... do n't want to crowd her . i 'm trying to be careful about that . and billy seems to agree that that 's the right move . ashley : that is the worst advice i 've ever heard . you ca n't listen to billy . are you nuts ? ! billy : not so fast . phyllis : why are you doing here ? billy : that 's a wasted question , 'cause we both know the answer to that . the real question that needs answering is when you were gon na tell me you moved out of the house . phyllis : what do you care ? you need a place to live now that mommy 's taking your house away ? billy : i care because i should have been the first phone call when you decided to close the door and walk away . phyllis : i do n't like the way you 're talking to me right now . billy : and i do n't like it when the woman i 'm having the affair with , the woman that i want to be with does n't tell me when she decided to leave her husband . phyllis : was having an affair . you were the one who walked away . do you remember that ? and i never said i was leaving jack . i just said i needed some time , because i needed a break . billy : well , he thinks it 's a lot more serious , phyllis . he mentioned the `` d `` word . phyllis : i never said that . billy : well , that 's what he thinks . you packed up your stuff and moved in here , so i 'm getting the distinct impression that you finally decided to stop hedging . you make your choice between jack : why would n't i listen to advice from billy ? ashley : well , let me ask you this . when you saw him , did he seem happy and well - adjusted , or did he wake up on the sofa with a hangover , surrounded by chaos ? jack : he actually had some good insights . ashley : about what ? jack : about phyllis ! they are friends . and what he said made sense . ashley : jack , please . i am not an expert on relationships . we all know this . but billy takes it to a whole different level . you can not listen to him on this subject . jack : he knows phyllis . oh , god , ashley , if you could have seen how upset she was last night . it was like whatever feelings she 's struggling with , they 're causing her physical pain . ashley : is that what she told you ? jack : well , she told me she feels like she 's living in a pressure cooker . that 's how unhappy she is . ashley : with you ? jack : you know , i 'm part of it . maybe a big part of it . she 's unhappy with a lot of things , including herself . i just do n't think she knows what she wants . ashley : when i saw her , she was definitely not herself . she was distracted , unsure of herself . your marriage is in crisis , jackie . jack : how the hell do i fix that ? ashley : the one thing i know for sure -- that when things are bad , you do n't just sit back and wait for them to get better . you 've got to be proactive . jack : go find a counselor with or without my wife ? ashley : absolutely . absolutely . and you have to make sure phyllis knows how passionately you feel about her . jack : she knows how i feel ! ashley : she 's alone in a hotel room , jack . the last thing you need is for her thoughts to be going around and around in her head . she needs to know that the man who loves her wants to work things out . and you need to tell her until she gets that . jack : you really think that 's the best choice ? ashley : it 's the only choice , jack . phyllis might not be sure how she feels , but you ca n't let her forget how you feel . jack : [ sighs ] stitch : hmm . abby : i miss this . stitch : oh , me , too . we wo n't miss it again . i promise , okay ? whatever we do , whatever happens , we ca n't lose our connection . abby : [ chuckles ] you know , i was just thinking that maybe ... stitch : oh , yeah ? `` maybe `` ? maybe what ? abby : [ chuckles ] that maybe next time we wo n't need protection . you know , just see where it leads . [ chuckles ] stitch : [ sighs ] abby : i - i did n't mean to ... stitch : no , you just -- you caught me by surprise . that 's all . abby : you do n't want ... ? stitch : i did n't know you 'd been thinking about that . abby : well , yeah . of course i have been . ben , you were so happy when i got pregnant before . before the miscarriage . stitch : everything is so confusing right now . abby : i know , but i thought that maybe this could be a sort of healing thing for us , maybe , you know ? stitch : this just feels like too much right now , abby . i mean , we do n't even know max will even recover and -- abby : he will , he will . i know he will . stitch : look , i 'm just -- come here . i 'm ... i 'm just saying that right now everything is so uncertain . you know , i - i know you 're disappointed . and we can talk about this some other time . just not now , okay ? [ sighs ] victoria : you worked fast . nick : well , i knew i needed to wrap things up quickly so i could get back here in time for dad 's appeal , which i 'm really looking forward to . victoria : you 're not thinking about backing out of testifying , are you ? nick : look , i said i would do it , and i will . i just hope we 're doing the right thing . victoria : hmm . you do n't think he 's changed . nick : let 's just say you have more faith in him than i do , and we 'll leave it at that . victoria : okay . oil spill and summer . did you meet with her ? nick : yeah , i did . i 'm proud of her . she 's being strong . victoria : hmm . she must be heartbroken . nick : well , she 's determined to deal with luca herself . victoria : i had my own conversation with him , and he 's concerned about her . nick : yeah , right . victoria : well , it seemed genuine . nick : he 's working you . victoria : of course he 's working me . luca 's always working me . it 's who he is . but as for his feelings for summer , i think that might be a different story . luca : hey . i 'm so glad you 're here . summer : luca , i have something to say . luca : yeah , me , too . but you got to let me go first before i lose my nerve , because the truth is ... i 've been using you , summer . i 've been lying to you . i 've been running my own agenda ever since the news of the oil spill broke . i - i would take things i learned from you or , hell , i would just make things up to try to undermine victoria in the media . it was all about clearing a path for myself to move up at newman . summer : [ scoffs ] why are you telling me this now ? luca : in the past , i 've been willing to do whatever it took to get a top job at newman , and that included sleeping with you and -- and convincing you that i loved you . summer : how could you do that ? luca : the point is , i could n't do that . something changed along the way , summer . the feelings i pretended to have for you to gain your trust , they became real . summer : and when did this epiphany hit you ? luca : yesterday . summer : and you expect me to believe that ? luca : i could n't believe it , either , but that 's the way it happened . look , when you were caught in the crossfire between me and victoria yesterday , my first instinct was to use it to my advantage . but then later , i ... i could n't let it go . i stayed awake for hours watching you sleep , realizing how deeply i 'd hurt you . i felt ashamed . [ sighs ] so i went to victoria this morning to try and fix things . i - i do n't know how successful i was , but at least victoria listened , so ... look , i know this explanation is n't an apology . i wanted to apologize , but no matter how many times or how many ways i could say that , it would n't change anything . summer : no , it would not . luca : i have to show you . i 'm determined to make you see how sorry i am , because ... i ca n't bear to lose the best thing that 's ever happened to me . phyllis : billy , you think that i have made a choice ? you think that 's why i moved out of my home with jack ? billy : looks that way . phyllis : it is much more complicated than you know . billy : no , it 's actually quite simple . you 're here . i 'm here . phyllis : you walked out . you walked out . you walked out that door . you left me alone to struggle with my feelings , and you did not care what i was thinking or doing . billy : did you really think that i would be done with you , phyllis ? phyllis : that 's what you said . billy : do you really think that i was out of this ? i 'm not out of this . i do n't believe that for one second . as soon as the words came out of my mouth , i did n't believe them , because we are not done . we 're just getting started . [ knock on door ] jack : phyllis , it 's jack . phyllis : jack , what are you doing here ? jack : you okay ? ashley said you had a headache . phyllis : yes , i did . i ... wanted to take a nap , but it did n't work . still does n't explain why you decided to stop by . do n't tell me it 's because of the headache . jack : saw right through that , did you ? listen , when you took this room , i resolved to give you all the time and space you needed . phyllis : then why are you here ? jack : i 'm not trying to crowd you . i just ... i realized there 's something i want every bit as much as you want this distance . phyllis : what is that ? jack : i do n't want you to forget you 're always in my thoughts , that i worry about you , that i love you . phyllis : i would never forget something like that . jack : okay . listen ... are you thinking about divorce ? phyllis : did i give you that impression ? because that was not my intention . coming here was about finding myself . it was not about hurting you . and i have been torn up thinking about you alone in that big house after everything we said to one another and just wondering where all of this is going . jack : where is all of this going ? phyllis : i do n't know . and the only thing i could ask for right now is just some time , time to be by myself , time to get lonely , time to close the door and shut everything and everybody out so i can figure out what 's next . jack : well , that said , i , uh , i guess i should go . phyllis : yeah . you should . jack : i want you to know , though , i 'm not going because i want to . i 'm going because i love you . i love you enough to give you what you want . billy : some of that sounded like it was for me . phyllis : all of it was . abby : i know that things got off track between us . but we 're here now , and we 're still together , and that 's what counts . i love you . stitch : i love you , too , baby . oh , my gosh . i did n't realize it was so late . abby : hmm . stitch : [ sighs ] abby : where are you going ? stitch : i , um ... you know , i , um , i forgot -- i forgot i have -- i forgot i have an appointment . abby : at the hospital ? stitch : right , yeah . it 's , um , it 's a consult , you know , and if i do n't get going , i 'm gon na -- i 'm gon na be late . abby : yeah , i understand . go . stitch : hey , come here . nick : by far the least important factor in all this is how luca feels about summer . victoria : so , do you really think that summer will break up with him ? nick : she 'll do it . victoria : do n't fool yourself , nick . nick : about what ? victoria : thinking that luca will completely disappear from her life . nick : i do n't know . if you heard how angry she was ... victoria : it does n't matter . the way that summer feels about luca , it ca n't be just turned off like a light . feelings linger . they do . nick : are we talking about summer right now , or are we talking about you ? summer : i was n't expecting you to say any of this . luca : look , i know it must be shocking hearing what i -- summer : no , it 's not a shock , not the way that you think , luca . everything you just said , i already knew it . luca : what do you mean ? summer : i found out that you had been leaking info to reporters , so i put on this act and set you up yesterday to confirm it . luca : no , that 's -- that 's impossible . victoria -- summer : no , victoria never really fired me . we staged it all just to see how you would react . and then when you started making all these plans for you and i to take over newman enterprises together , that is the only confirmation i needed . luca : [ scoffs ] you played me .

[ door opens ] [ door closes ] ashley : but what happened between jack and you ? phyllis : it 's married - couple stuff . you know how it is . ashley : ca n't be inconsequential , phyllis . you moved out of the house . this is very upsetting . i thought the two of you were happy . phyllis : well , there were times that we pretended everything was fine , and we needed to stop pretending . ashley : that 's it ? i 'm not trying to pry . can i help you in some way ? phyllis : things have been difficult between us for a while , ashley . probably started when victor put marco in my bed . ashley : well , that was n't jack 's fault . phyllis : no , it 's not about fault . it is and it is n't . that is why i 've decided to move into the athletic club so i can sort things out and try to understand why everything has happened . ashley : forgive me . i do n't understand . is this jack 's fault ? is it not jack 's fault ? phyllis : there 's enough blame to go around for everyone . ashley : okay , there 's something you 're not telling me . phyllis : okay , i can not do this . i have a killer headache that i 've been fighting since i woke up . i will upload the kravitz file . i will shoot my comments to you , and that 'll be that . ashley : what about the executive meeting , phyllis ? you should be there . phyllis : with the way things are with jack right now , i do n't think i should attend . it 'll be awkward . ashley : uh -- but -- abby : i 'm not gon na lie . it was the romantic vibe that sold me . i thought that maybe ... never mind . it was a bad idea . stitch : i think it 's a great idea . abby : you do ?

nick : look , you want to see the best in people . that is an admirable quality . summer : yeah , till it 's not . nick : do n't be so hard on yourself , okay ? you are who you are . and i love who you are . do n't ever change . but we 're gon na have to figure out how you 're gon na handle the situation with luca . summer : oh , no , that decision has already been made . luca : i took an informal role here because i was hoping it would lead to bigger things . victoria : `` hoping `` ? uh , that makes it sound like you were leaving things open to chance when you were n't . you played every angle . luca : this conversation is n't about me . it 's about summer , all right , and what an incredible asset she is to this company . victoria : not anymore . luca : look , yesterday summer stood up for me because she thought you were giving me a raw deal . that kind of integrity in someone is all too rare in this business . she can be extraordinarily invaluable to you , victoria . victoria : as she was to you , leaking secrets about my business ? luca : i used her , yes . what i was n't expecting was ... her , the kind of person she is . she loves her family . and since i 'm the one standing between the newmans and summer , i will happily remove myself from the equation . victoria : [ sighs ] and you expect nothing in return ? luca : oh , i want something . i want you to give your niece another chance . she 's the only reason i would ever stop fighting for this . take her back , victoria . summer : i pretended to be on team luca long enough to see what he was really after , but that was yesterday . today is a new day . nick : time to cut him loose . and i would be very happy to deliver this message for you if you want . summer : i 'm pretty sure i have to handle this myself , dad . nick : summer , if you think you owe luca santori some tender farewell , you do n't . summer : i have to take responsibility . i brought luca into my life , so it 's up to me and nobody else to boot him out of it . stitch : [ laughs ] abby : i want you . jack : good morning . ashley : jack , phyllis told me . i 'm so sorry . jack : oh . thanks . ashley : why did n't you tell me ? jack : well , i was going to . today . in fact , i just came from telling billy . it actually felt good to talk about it , to get it all said out loud . it 's better than my trying to wrap my head around all of this on my own . ashley : i still do n't understand what really happened . jack : phyllis did n't explain it ? ashley : well , i 'm sure she thinks she did , but she was so vague . when i tried to get details , she got upset and ran out of here with a headache . jack : well , that explains it . i called ahead of time , found she 'd been here and left . i would n't be here otherwise . ashley : why ? you do n't want to see her ? jack : of course i do . i just do n't want to ... do n't want to crowd her . i 'm trying to be careful about that . and billy seems to agree that that 's the right move . ashley : that is the worst advice i 've ever heard . you ca n't listen to billy . are you nuts ? ! billy : not so fast . phyllis : why are you doing here ? billy : that 's a wasted question , 'cause we both know the answer to that . the real question that needs answering is when you were gon na tell me you moved out of the house . phyllis : what do you care ? you need a place to live now that mommy 's taking your house away ? billy : i care because i should have been the first phone call when you decided to close the door and walk away . phyllis : i do n't like the way you 're talking to me right now . billy : and i do n't like it when the woman i 'm having the affair with , the woman that i want to be with does n't tell me when she decided to leave her husband . phyllis : was having an affair . you were the one who walked away . do you remember that ? and i never said i was leaving jack . i just said i needed some time , because i needed a break . billy : well , he thinks it 's a lot more serious , phyllis . he mentioned the `` d `` word . phyllis : i never said that . billy : well , that 's what he thinks . you packed up your stuff and moved in here , so i 'm getting the distinct impression that you finally decided to stop hedging . you make your choice between jack : why would n't i listen to advice from billy ? ashley : well , let me ask you this . when you saw him , did he seem happy and well - adjusted , or did he wake up on the sofa with a hangover , surrounded by chaos ? jack : he actually had some good insights . ashley : about what ? jack : about phyllis ! they are friends . and what he said made sense . ashley : jack , please . i am not an expert on relationships . we all know this . but billy takes it to a whole different level . you can not listen to him on this subject . jack : he knows phyllis . oh , god , ashley , if you could have seen how upset she was last night . it was like whatever feelings she 's struggling with , they 're causing her physical pain . ashley : is that what she told you ? jack : well , she told me she feels like she 's living in a pressure cooker . that 's how unhappy she is . ashley : with you ? jack : you know , i 'm part of it . maybe a big part of it . she 's unhappy with a lot of things , including herself . i just do n't think she knows what she wants . ashley : when i saw her , she was definitely not herself . she was distracted , unsure of herself . your marriage is in crisis , jackie . jack : how the hell do i fix that ? ashley : the one thing i know for sure -- that when things are bad , you do n't just sit back and wait for them to get better . you 've got to be proactive . jack : go find a counselor with or without my wife ? ashley : absolutely . absolutely . and you have to make sure phyllis knows how passionately you feel about her . jack : she knows how i feel ! ashley : she 's alone in a hotel room , jack . the last thing you need is for her thoughts to be going around and around in her head . she needs to know that the man who loves her wants to work things out . and you need to tell her until she gets that . jack : you really think that 's the best choice ? ashley : it 's the only choice , jack . phyllis might not be sure how she feels , but you ca n't let her forget how you feel . jack : [ sighs ] stitch : hmm . abby : i miss this . stitch : oh , me , too . we wo n't miss it again . i promise , okay ? whatever we do , whatever happens , we ca n't lose our connection . abby : [ chuckles ] you know , i was just thinking that maybe ... stitch : oh , yeah ? `` maybe `` ? maybe what ? abby : [ chuckles ] that maybe next time we wo n't need protection . you know , just see where it leads . [ chuckles ] stitch : [ sighs ] abby : i - i did n't mean to ... stitch : no , you just -- you caught me by surprise . that 's all . abby : you do n't want ... ? stitch : i did n't know you 'd been thinking about that . abby : well , yeah . of course i have been . ben , you were so happy when i got pregnant before . before the miscarriage . stitch : everything is so confusing right now . abby : i know , but i thought that maybe this could be a sort of healing thing for us , maybe , you know ? stitch : this just feels like too much right now , abby . i mean , we do n't even know max will even recover and -- abby : he will , he will . i know he will . stitch : look , i 'm just -- come here . i 'm ... i 'm just saying that right now everything is so uncertain . you know , i - i know you 're disappointed . and we can talk about this some other time . just not now , okay ? [ sighs ] victoria : you worked fast . nick : well , i knew i needed to wrap things up quickly so i could get back here in time for dad 's appeal , which i 'm really looking forward to . victoria : you 're not thinking about backing out of testifying , are you ? nick : look , i said i would do it , and i will . i just hope we 're doing the right thing . victoria : hmm . you do n't think he 's changed . nick : let 's just say you have more faith in him than i do , and we 'll leave it at that . victoria : okay . oil spill and summer . did you meet with her ? nick : yeah , i did . i 'm proud of her . she 's being strong . victoria : hmm . she must be heartbroken . nick : well , she 's determined to deal with luca herself . victoria : i had my own conversation with him , and he 's concerned about her . nick : yeah , right . victoria : well , it seemed genuine . nick : he 's working you . victoria : of course he 's working me . luca 's always working me . it 's who he is . but as for his feelings for summer , i think that might be a different story . luca : hey . i 'm so glad you 're here . summer : luca , i have something to say . luca : yeah , me , too . but you got to let me go first before i lose my nerve , because the truth is ... i 've been using you , summer . i 've been lying to you . i 've been running my own agenda ever since the news of the oil spill broke . i - i would take things i learned from you or , hell , i would just make things up to try to undermine victoria in the media . it was all about clearing a path for myself to move up at newman . summer : [ scoffs ] why are you telling me this now ? luca : in the past , i 've been willing to do whatever it took to get a top job at newman , and that included sleeping with you and -- and convincing you that i loved you . summer : how could you do that ? luca : the point is , i could n't do that . something changed along the way , summer . the feelings i pretended to have for you to gain your trust , they became real . summer : and when did this epiphany hit you ? luca : yesterday . summer : and you expect me to believe that ? luca : i could n't believe it , either , but that 's the way it happened . look , when you were caught in the crossfire between me and victoria yesterday , my first instinct was to use it to my advantage . but then later , i ... i could n't let it go . i stayed awake for hours watching you sleep , realizing how deeply i 'd hurt you . i felt ashamed . [ sighs ] so i went to victoria this morning to try and fix things . i - i do n't know how successful i was , but at least victoria listened , so ... look , i know this explanation is n't an apology . i wanted to apologize , but no matter how many times or how many ways i could say that , it would n't change anything . summer : no , it would not . luca : i have to show you . i 'm determined to make you see how sorry i am , because ... i ca n't bear to lose the best thing that 's ever happened to me . phyllis : billy , you think that i have made a choice ? you think that 's why i moved out of my home with jack ? billy : looks that way . phyllis : it is much more complicated than you know . billy : no , it 's actually quite simple . you 're here . i 'm here . phyllis : you walked out . you walked out . you walked out that door . you left me alone to struggle with my feelings , and you did not care what i was thinking or doing . billy : did you really think that i would be done with you , phyllis ? phyllis : that 's what you said . billy : do you really think that i was out of this ? i 'm not out of this . i do n't believe that for one second . as soon as the words came out of my mouth , i did n't believe them , because we are not done . we 're just getting started . [ knock on door ] jack : phyllis , it 's jack . phyllis : jack , what are you doing here ? jack : you okay ? ashley said you had a headache . phyllis : yes , i did . i ... wanted to take a nap , but it did n't work . still does n't explain why you decided to stop by . do n't tell me it 's because of the headache . jack : saw right through that , did you ? listen , when you took this room , i resolved to give you all the time and space you needed . phyllis : then why are you here ? jack : i 'm not trying to crowd you . i just ... i realized there 's something i want every bit as much as you want this distance . phyllis : what is that ? jack : i do n't want you to forget you 're always in my thoughts , that i worry about you , that i love you . phyllis : i would never forget something like that . jack : okay . listen ... are you thinking about divorce ? phyllis : did i give you that impression ? because that was not my intention . coming here was about finding myself . it was not about hurting you . and i have been torn up thinking about you alone in that big house after everything we said to one another and just wondering where all of this is going . jack : where is all of this going ? phyllis : i do n't know . and the only thing i could ask for right now is just some time , time to be by myself , time to get lonely , time to close the door and shut everything and everybody out so i can figure out what 's next . jack : well , that said , i , uh , i guess i should go . phyllis : yeah . you should . jack : i want you to know , though , i 'm not going because i want to . i 'm going because i love you . i love you enough to give you what you want . billy : some of that sounded like it was for me . phyllis : all of it was . abby : i know that things got off track between us . but we 're here now , and we 're still together , and that 's what counts . i love you . stitch : i love you , too , baby . oh , my gosh . i did n't realize it was so late . abby : hmm . stitch : [ sighs ] abby : where are you going ? stitch : i , um ... you know , i , um , i forgot -- i forgot i have -- i forgot i have an appointment . abby : at the hospital ? stitch : right , yeah . it 's , um , it 's a consult , you know , and if i do n't get going , i 'm gon na -- i 'm gon na be late . abby : yeah , i understand . go . stitch : hey , come here . nick : by far the least important factor in all this is how luca feels about summer . victoria : so , do you really think that summer will break up with him ? nick : she 'll do it . victoria : do n't fool yourself , nick . nick : about what ? victoria : thinking that luca will completely disappear from her life . nick : i do n't know . if you heard how angry she was ... victoria : it does n't matter . the way that summer feels about luca , it ca n't be just turned off like a light . feelings linger . they do . nick : are we talking about summer right now , or are we talking about you ? summer : i was n't expecting you to say any of this . luca : look , i know it must be shocking hearing what i -- summer : no , it 's not a shock , not the way that you think , luca . everything you just said , i already knew it . luca : what do you mean ? summer : i found out that you had been leaking info to reporters , so i put on this act and set you up yesterday to confirm it . luca : no , that 's -- that 's impossible . victoria -- summer : no , victoria never really fired me . we staged it all just to see how you would react . and then when you started making all these plans for you and i to take over newman enterprises together , that is the only confirmation i needed . luca : [ scoffs ] you played me . [ chuckles ] well done . summer : yeah , well , you did it first . luca : i 'm not faulting you , summer . i 'm just surprised that you would do something like this . summer : yeah , it surprised me , too , luca . luca : well , okay . i 'm relieved that your job at newman is secure . even though i truly meant what i said to victoria about walking away . summer : as much as you want the top job at newman ? luca : look , even if you were to somehow forgive me and offer me an executive position , i still would n't take it . summer : i do n't believe you . luca : yeah , and it 's the one time you should . i 'm being absolutely honest with you . that company is what came between us , blinded me to what i could have with you , what you and i could have . i do n't want that . summer : well , then i guess we 're done here . luca : summer , just -- summer , summer . tell me one thing . summer : [ sighs ] luca : now that i 've laid it all out and been completely honest , do we still have a summer : my plan was to confront you and then dump you , luca . luca : has your plan changed ? summer : i do n't know . okay , i was n't expecting this . i ... i was expecting you to stonewall me and then lie to me some more , which would have been a lot easier . but instead i got this ... this declaration . luca : i swear it 's an honest one . summer : how am i supposed to believe that with all the lies that came before ? luca : so you ca n't trust me . summer : i wo n't . no . luca : look , all i can tell you is i - i do n't know how to be any more honest than what i 've been with you here today . summer : luca , i ... luca : look , do n't say it now , okay ? take some time . take some time . just sort it all out . summer : what will you be doing ? luca : hoping you can forgive me , even if i do n't deserve it . victoria : i was n't just talking about summer . i , um ... while you were gone , i ended things with travis . nick : what happened ? victoria : he wanted to take me away from here . he was worried about what would happen if i stayed . nick : what about your kids ? victoria : he wanted me to bring them along . he was ready to pack them up and hit the road . or the water . [ chuckles ] he wanted to buy a boat and sail around the world . nick : [ chuckles ] you ? a boat ? victoria : i know . it 's crazy . i understand that . and i actually thought about it for three seconds , but then i realized that i could n't do that to billy or j.t .

[ sighs ] sad thing is , it 's probably true . [ sighs ] she really believed [ sighs ] that once you knew about the baby ... you 'd be a different man . sam : you wanted silas out of your daughter 's life , so you thought if nina lost the baby , then she would lose silas , too . madeline : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] nikolas : you 're gon na run off with a child that does n't belong to you ? put him in danger by making him a fugitive ? i mean , after everything that you have done to dante and lulu , now this ? britt : i never set out to hurt dante and lulu . nikolas : stop saying that . you said you were sorry , and after the party , you cried and you cried . you swore that you would change . it was just another lie . britt : well , that was before i realized how much i 'd missed ben . and i miss him , nikolas . nikolas : he is not for you to miss ! britt : you have no idea how difficult this decision was . i am doing what 's best for the baby . nikolas : really ? what 's best for the baby ? so keeping him from his mother and father is what 's best for the baby ? ! how can you even say that ? ! i truly never really knew you .

[ melanie giggling ] arianna : yeah . we 're pretty close to carefree . melanie : close ? arianna : yeah . i mean it ... got a little weird when ... he asked me to marry him and i turned him down , but -- melanie : what ? why did you do that ? arianna : i - i do n't know ! because i 'm an idiot ? melanie : ohh ... [ scene_break ] ej : you know , i think as long as i live , i 'm not gon na forget the look on your face when i gave her to you last night . sami : ej , i 'll never be able to thank you for that . but how did it happen ? you know , in all the confusion , i - i forgot to even ask you where she was and how -- ej : i 'm so sorry , samantha . i have to get going . i missed so much business the last couple of weeks . darling . sami : oh . okay . ej : and um ... talk to you soon , okay ? [ sydney fussing ] sami : oh ho ho . it 's hard to say good - bye . i know , sweetheart . shh , it 's okay . shh , he 'll be back . there . there , you okay ? you know what ? i know someone we can call , someone who really wants to see you . yeah . let 's see what he says . hey , it 's me . the coast is clear . ej 's finally left so , um , sydney and i would really love to see you . call me , okay , rafe ? [ scene_break ] rafe : no , seriously , marty , thanks . it helps . okay . agent clark : what does ? rafe : [ groans ] he 's accounted for all the blood samples we found ... that sydney 's dna matched the bloody clothes that we found in the river . agent clark : and that helps because ... rafe : because dr . carver examined sydney . she did n't find any cuts or any sort of scars on her whatsoever . agent clark : so ? rafe : so ? what do you mean , so ? so someone obviously went to a hell of a lot of trouble to make us think that sydney was dead . why ? why would they do that ? what does that accomplish ? agent clark : to scare the hell out of you ? to make you more vulnerable ? rafe : okay , sure . maybe once , but why twice ? basically , they did the exact same thing again . after dimera got the , uh , the ransom letter , they call and they say sydney 's dead -- why ? agent clark : more of the same ? rafe : the same . no . it was intentional . it was cruel . and the more i think about it , the more i realize that there 's something very personal about this case . [ scene_break ] anna : [ sighs ] [ suitcase zipping ] [ scene_break ] daniel : so you wan na tell me what happened ? maggie : all right ! i fell . daniel : well , did you see a doctor ? maggie : it 's a bruise . daniel : no , the way you 're favoring this arm ... y - you should get an x - ray just to make sure there 's nothing broken . maggie : daniel , i told you , i 'm fine . daniel : i want to see your hand . maggie ... i am not going anywhere until i see your hand . maggie : i 'm scared . daniel : i know you are . [ scene_break ] [ keys jingling , metal clanging ] nicole : would you tell my mother i do n't want to see her ? she 's always wringing her hands about how this is all my fault . you know , who the hell needs it ? mrs. mctavish : she came all the way out here . we 'll send her back so you have more time to feel sorry for yourself . [ buttons clicking ] mrs. mctavish : yeah , this is lois . la dimera 's changed her mind , so you can send that sweet mrs. walker home . it is n't her ? who is it ? [ scene_break ] sami : whoo . did you have so much fun with your mommy this morning ? [ knocking on door ] sami : i love how you -- let 's see who 's at the door , huh ? let 's find out who it is . brady : [ gasps ] i just wanted to see the most beautiful baby ever ! [ both laughing ] sami : can you say hi to your uncle brady ? brady : oh , my gosh ! hi , sweetie ! ooh boo boo ! oh , my gosh ... look at you ! sami : come on in . brady : look at you ! ari and i were together when we found out . rafe texted her , you texted me . it was the best news in the world . sami : and lexie checked her out , and she is completely healthy . brady : you 're perfectly healthy . and she 's at home , where she should be . sami : not that i think sydney agrees with me ... 'cause you should have seen the look on her face when ej walked out the door this morning . she was so upset to say good - bye to daddy , huh ? very upset ! brady : uh ... uh , ej was here ? all night ? sami : he wanted to be with his kids . brady : of course . how did rafe feel about that ? sami : i do n't know . because he did n't bother coming home last night . [ scene_break ] rafe : well , it makes sense that whoever had sydney would be holed up in this area . agent clark : plenty of cover and cell phone service . rafe : exactly . all right , so let 's look at everyone who 's in this area ... especially people who are leasing that land out . agent clark : right . [ knocking on door ] rafe : it 's probably my sister . come on in . arianna : hi . rafe : hey . arianna : am i interrupting or ... agent clark : no , not at all . i 'm warning you -- he is cranky this morning . rafe : no , i 'm not . agent clark : yeah , you are . rafe : okay . [ papers rustling ] arianna : you 're cranky ? rafe : she does n't know what she 's talking about . arianna : so ... thought you 'd be with sami and sydney this morning . rafe : yeah , well ... there is still a kidnapper out there . arianna : are you any closer to finding out who he is ? rafe : he , she ... i do n't know . not really . it 's like whoever 's doing this is ... they 're one step ahead of us , they know exactly what we 're gon na do before we do it . i just do n't understand . they torture sami for weeks . they make her think that her baby 's dead , and then suddenly they demand ransom again . arianna : well , maybe the sick game just stopped being fun . or maybe they realized all this press this was getting and then they got scared . they decided to take the money and run . rafe : nah . no , it 's more personal than that . just hope to god whoever 's responsible for this ... just hope they 're finished . [ scene_break ] ej : still packing . anna : well , you told me to make sure i did n't leave anything behind , and that 's what i 'm doing . ej : i can take care of all of that . anna : i still ca n't believe you 're staying . ej : anna , just pack , please . anna : but i do n't know why it should surprise me , really . i should have known you never could leave her . sami , i mean . ej : do n't be ridiculous . i can leave samantha whenev -- as you know , anna ... i ca n't leave her . [ scene_break ] maggie : anybody ever tell you you 're kinda pushy ? daniel : you 're having symptoms again , are n't you ? myasthenia gravis . maggie : [ clicks tongue ] tch . maybe . daniel : this is not something to fool around with , maggie . maggie : really ? thanks for the tip . daniel : i 'm not trying to be patronizing . i 'm just saying ... did -- did you call the doctor ? maggie : [ sighs ] i looked online . it says stress can bring on the symptoms . it can reoccur . daniel : mm - mm . maggie : what are you doing ? daniel : you need to see a doctor . maggie : i wish you would n't pressure me . daniel : i want you to take the same care of yourself as you take care of the people who need you . now , can you do that ? [ scene_break ] arianna : go home , rafe . go see sami and sydney . you can take your work with you . sami : well , sami thinks that this is all over , that she has her happy ending . i do not want to take that away from her . arianna : so then you still think sydney 's in danger . [ papers rustle ] rafe : maybe not . sydney was a means to an end . arianna : okay ... [ stammers ] [ exhales ] is it possible that you could just be , i do n't know , a little paranoid ? rafe : ari ... this is n't about the money . i do n't even think that the money mattered . this whole thing was just set up , especially at the end , to hurt . arianna : okay , well , god knows that there 's a ton of people who hate the dimeras , right ? rafe : no , no , no , i 'm not even talking about ej . i 'm not talking about the dimeras . i think that this was set up to hurt sami . [ scene_break ] sami : so ej thought ... well , i mean , that we could n't tell rafe about the last ransom note . brady : right . and you just went along with it . sami : well , he was right . we got sydney back . brady : yeah , but did ej give you a reason why he thought telling rafe was such a bad idea ? sami : it was on the note . i mean , they made it clear that we could n't involve the fbi . i mean , last time when we did n't follow their instructions , we almost ... we almost lost her . brady : i - i know . sami : they were so mad that they made us believe that she was ... d - e - a - d. i mean , they were -- it was horrible . and -- and i felt like i did n't have a choice . brady : i 'm sure it must have felt that way . sami : look , i get it . rafe is upset ... even if he does n't want to admit it or talk about it . but i 'll deal with that , and right now , i have sydney back . and that is the only thing that matters . brady : no , sami . it 's not the only thing . [ scene_break ] nicole : [ gasps ] hey ! chloe : hi . nicole : oh ... mrs. mctavish : [ ahem ] chloe : hey . nicole : [ laughs ] hi . chloe : actually , uh , brady asked me to come see you . something happened , and he figured that you should know about it . nicole : sydney ? chloe : yes . but it 's good news . they found her . and she 's back with her mother . [ scene_break ] anna : so ... you admit i 'm right . you ca n't leave sami because you love her . [ both chuckling ] ej : well , i ca n't leave samantha , but not for , uh ... sentimental reasons . she has her children back , you know . she thinks that all of her lies and evasions have been forgotten . well , she 's in for a big surprise . [ scene_break ] daniel : well , i talked to the chief of neurology , and he 's going to see you right away . maggie : i do n't want any special treatment . daniel : i do n't think that 's your call . i 'm gon na go down to , uh , get a nurse and have her take you to the consult room , okay ? maggie : i should hope ... i know where the consult room is . daniel : and what if you need help ? maggie : i 'll ask . i want to walk down there on my own . daniel : uh ... i 'll be here all day . maggie : [ scoffs ] melanie : [ laughs ] how long have ... you been standing there ? daniel : ah , just -- a couple minutes . melanie : oh , no . was i snoring ? was i drooling ? i 've walked in on sleeping patients -- i 've seen them drooling . daniel : no , no , no , you were n't drooling -- you were actually -- you were very quiet . no drooling . [ both laughing ] melanie : okay , all right . good to know . [ both laugh ] daniel : yeah , well , i - i hope i 'm not intruding . i 'm not sure what the proper etiquette is for ... getting to know a child that you never knew you had and -- melanie : ah ... [ stammers ] i 'm not one for etiquette . i was raised by a con artist so , you know ... do n't sweat it on my behalf . daniel : right . right . well , then i 'll just go by instinct , i guess . melanie : great . [ laughs ] um ... you know , i ca n't ... really help but wonder ... i mean , i see the ways that one might think we 're related . um ... daniel : what ? melanie : it 's -- it 's like ... here you sit ... my -- my father is a world - renowned surgeon ... and i am a nursing student dropout . [ laughs ] i mean , something must have gone wrong in the gene department there . daniel : melanie ... melanie , you are the brightest candidate i 've ever seen . melanie : me ? daniel : you . for the nursing program . so i was hoping , as traumatic as all this has been , that maybe the silver lining is , uh ... i get to stick around for a while . [ scene_break ] nicole : so -- so sydney 's okay ? chloe : yeah . she 's fine . nicole : thank god . well -- but who did it ? i mean , is the son of a bitch behind bars ? chloe : you know what ? they do n't even know exactly what happened , but ... is n't it enough that she 's safe ? nicole : yes . yes . so she 's , uh ... she 's with sami . chloe : that 's right . nicole : hmm . chloe : that 's where she belongs . nicole : yes . sami and ... and ej , they , uh ... they have everything they want now , and i 'm in here . [ scene_break ] arianna : one question . rafe : mm ? arianna : it 's asked with love . rafe : oh . this oughta be good . arianna : is all this professional deal because you seek justice ? or is it because you 're trying to stay away from sami so that maybe you could end up proving that ej was wrong to cut you out of the picture ? rafe : oh . okay , well , uh , there was no love in that . that was just flat - out criticism ... by the way . arianna : brady asked me to marry him . rafe : uh ... okay . congratulations . arianna : i turned him down . rafe : oh . arianna : yeah . rafe : hmm . arianna : see , um ... i love him ... and i think that we could be really good together . but being a hernandez , i manage to find a way to screw it up . so ... go to sami ... and sydney . and to those twins who adore you . and , brother , do n't screw this up , man . not when you 're so close . [ scene_break ] sami : so i get it , all right ? you think i should have told rafe , but that 's just because you hate ej and you like rafe . brady : no , no , no , no . this has nothing to do with hating ej . it has to do with wanting you to be happy . sami : well , i am happy . i am beyond happy . brady : sami . i 've seen ... you with rafe , and i 've seen rafe with your kids , and now that she is back , thank god in heaven , i just think you got a chance at the brass ring here . you have a chance to really be happy the way you deserve to be happy . and i think it 's with rafe . [ scene_break ] ej : you see , anna ... i am gon na be the hero in samantha 's life . anna : [ laughing ] yeah , well , what if you succeed ? i mean , what if you break up sami and rafe , and she turns to you ? [ scene_break ] daniel : hey , hey , how 'd it go ? maggie : [ sighs ] well , he ... he actually calmed me down . he said that we oughta try a medication adjustment and then see how it turns out . daniel : that 's good . that 's good . and what about the tremors ? maggie : daniel ... i 'm fine . now , i wan na go in and see melanie for a minute . hi . melanie : aunt maggie ! yay ! i 'm so glad you 're here ! maggie : oh , sweetie . mmm , mmm , mmm , mmm , mmm !

[ melanie giggling ] arianna : yeah . we 're pretty close to carefree . melanie : close ? arianna : yeah . i mean it ... got a little weird when ... he asked me to marry him and i turned him down , but -- melanie : what ? why did you do that ? arianna : i - i do n't know ! because i 'm an idiot ? melanie : ohh ... [ scene_break ] ej : you know , i think as long as i live , i 'm not gon na forget the look on your face when i gave her to you last night . sami : ej , i 'll never be able to thank you for that . but how did it happen ? you know , in all the confusion , i - i forgot to even ask you where she was and how -- ej : i 'm so sorry , samantha . i have to get going . i missed so much business the last couple of weeks . darling . sami : oh . okay . ej : and um ... talk to you soon , okay ? [ sydney fussing ] sami : oh ho ho . it 's hard to say good - bye . i know , sweetheart . shh , it 's okay . shh , he 'll be back . there . there , you okay ? you know what ? i know someone we can call , someone who really wants to see you . yeah . let 's see what he says . hey , it 's me . the coast is clear . ej 's finally left so , um , sydney and i would really love to see you . call me , okay , rafe ? [ scene_break ] rafe : no , seriously , marty , thanks . it helps . okay . agent clark : what does ? rafe : [ groans ] he 's accounted for all the blood samples we found ... that sydney 's dna matched the bloody clothes that we found in the river . agent clark : and that helps because ... rafe : because dr . carver examined sydney . she did n't find any cuts or any sort of scars on her whatsoever . agent clark : so ? rafe : so ? what do you mean , so ? so someone obviously went to a hell of a lot of trouble to make us think that sydney was dead . why ? why would they do that ? what does that accomplish ? agent clark : to scare the hell out of you ? to make you more vulnerable ? rafe : okay , sure . maybe once , but why twice ? basically , they did the exact same thing again . after dimera got the , uh , the ransom letter , they call and they say sydney 's dead -- why ? agent clark : more of the same ? rafe : the same . no . it was intentional . it was cruel . and the more i think about it , the more i realize that there 's something very personal about this case . [ scene_break ] anna : [ sighs ] [ suitcase zipping ] [ scene_break ] daniel : so you wan na tell me what happened ? maggie : all right ! i fell . daniel : well , did you see a doctor ? maggie : it 's a bruise . daniel : no , the way you 're favoring this arm ... y - you should get an x - ray just to make sure there 's nothing broken . maggie : daniel , i told you , i 'm fine . daniel : i want to see your hand . maggie ... i am not going anywhere until i see your hand . maggie : i 'm scared . daniel : i know you are .

[ both laughing ] sami : can you say hi to your uncle brady ? brady : oh , my gosh ! hi , sweetie ! ooh boo boo ! oh , my gosh ... look at you ! sami : come on in . brady : look at you ! ari and i were together when we found out . rafe texted her , you texted me . it was the best news in the world . sami : and lexie checked her out , and she is completely healthy . brady : you 're perfectly healthy . and she 's at home , where she should be . sami : not that i think sydney agrees with me ... 'cause you should have seen the look on her face when ej walked out the door this morning . she was so upset to say good - bye to daddy , huh ? very upset ! brady : uh ... uh , ej was here ? all night ? sami : he wanted to be with his kids . brady : of course . how did rafe feel about that ? sami : i do n't know . because he did n't bother coming home last night . [ scene_break ] rafe : well , it makes sense that whoever had sydney would be holed up in this area . agent clark : plenty of cover and cell phone service . rafe : exactly . all right , so let 's look at everyone who 's in this area ... especially people who are leasing that land out . agent clark : right . [ knocking on door ] rafe : it 's probably my sister . come on in . arianna : hi . rafe : hey . arianna : am i interrupting or ... agent clark : no , not at all . i 'm warning you -- he is cranky this morning . rafe : no , i 'm not . agent clark : yeah , you are . rafe : okay . [ papers rustling ] arianna : you 're cranky ? rafe : she does n't know what she 's talking about . arianna : so ... thought you 'd be with sami and sydney this morning . rafe : yeah , well ... there is still a kidnapper out there . arianna : are you any closer to finding out who he is ? rafe : he , she ... i do n't know . not really . it 's like whoever 's doing this is ... they 're one step ahead of us , they know exactly what we 're gon na do before we do it . i just do n't understand . they torture sami for weeks . they make her think that her baby 's dead , and then suddenly they demand ransom again . arianna : well , maybe the sick game just stopped being fun . or maybe they realized all this press this was getting and then they got scared . they decided to take the money and run . rafe : nah . no , it 's more personal than that . just hope to god whoever 's responsible for this ... just hope they 're finished . [ scene_break ] ej : still packing . anna : well , you told me to make sure i did n't leave anything behind , and that 's what i 'm doing . ej : i can take care of all of that . anna : i still ca n't believe you 're staying . ej : anna , just pack , please . anna : but i do n't know why it should surprise me , really . i should have known you never could leave her . sami , i mean . ej : do n't be ridiculous . i can leave samantha whenev -- as you know , anna ... i ca n't leave her .

[ scene_break ] arianna : go home , rafe . go see sami and sydney . you can take your work with you . sami : well , sami thinks that this is all over , that she has her happy ending . i do not want to take that away from her . arianna : so then you still think sydney 's in danger . [ papers rustle ] rafe : maybe not . sydney was a means to an end . arianna : okay ... [ stammers ] [ exhales ] is it possible that you could just be , i do n't know , a little paranoid ? rafe : ari ... this is n't about the money . i do n't even think that the money mattered . this whole thing was just set up , especially at the end , to hurt . arianna : okay , well , god knows that there 's a ton of people who hate the dimeras , right ? rafe : no , no , no , i 'm not even talking about ej . i 'm not talking about the dimeras . i think that this was set up to hurt sami . [ scene_break ] sami : so ej thought ... well , i mean , that we could n't tell rafe about the last ransom note . brady : right . and you just went along with it . sami : well , he was right . we got sydney back . brady : yeah , but did ej give you a reason why he thought telling rafe was such a bad idea ? sami : it was on the note . i mean , they made it clear that we could n't involve the fbi . i mean , last time when we did n't follow their instructions , we almost ... we almost lost her . brady : i - i know . sami : they were so mad that they made us believe that she was ... d - e - a - d. i mean , they were -- it was horrible . and -- and i felt like i did n't have a choice . brady : i 'm sure it must have felt that way . sami : look , i get it . rafe is upset ... even if he does n't want to admit it or talk about it . but i 'll deal with that , and right now , i have sydney back . and that is the only thing that matters . brady : no , sami . it 's not the only thing . [ scene_break ] nicole : [ gasps ] hey ! chloe : hi . nicole : oh ... mrs. mctavish : [ ahem ] chloe : hey . nicole : [ laughs ] hi . chloe : actually , uh , brady asked me to come see you . something happened , and he figured that you should know about it . nicole : sydney ? chloe : yes . but it 's good news . they found her . and she 's back with her mother . [ scene_break ] anna : so ... you admit i 'm right . you ca n't leave sami because you love her . [ both chuckling ] ej : well , i ca n't leave samantha , but not for , uh ... sentimental reasons . she has her children back , you know . she thinks that all of her lies and evasions have been forgotten . well , she 's in for a big surprise .

[ laughs ] i mean , something must have gone wrong in the gene department there . daniel : melanie ... melanie , you are the brightest candidate i 've ever seen . melanie : me ? daniel : you . for the nursing program . so i was hoping , as traumatic as all this has been , that maybe the silver lining is , uh ... i get to stick around for a while . [ scene_break ] nicole : so -- so sydney 's okay ? chloe : yeah . she 's fine . nicole : thank god . well -- but who did it ? i mean , is the son of a bitch behind bars ? chloe : you know what ? they do n't even know exactly what happened , but ... is n't it enough that she 's safe ? nicole : yes . yes . so she 's , uh ... she 's with sami . chloe : that 's right . nicole : hmm . chloe : that 's where she belongs . nicole : yes . sami and ... and ej , they , uh ... they have everything they want now , and i 'm in here . [ scene_break ] arianna : one question . rafe : mm ? arianna : it 's asked with love . rafe : oh . this oughta be good . arianna : is all this professional deal because you seek justice ? or is it because you 're trying to stay away from sami so that maybe you could end up proving that ej was wrong to cut you out of the picture ? rafe : oh . okay , well , uh , there was no love in that . that was just flat - out criticism ... by the way . arianna : brady asked me to marry him . rafe : uh ... okay . congratulations . arianna : i turned him down . rafe : oh . arianna : yeah . rafe : hmm . arianna : see , um ... i love him ... and i think that we could be really good together . but being a hernandez , i manage to find a way to screw it up . so ... go to sami ... and sydney . and to those twins who adore you . and , brother , do n't screw this up , man . not when you 're so close . [ scene_break ] sami : so i get it , all right ? you think i should have told rafe , but that 's just because you hate ej and you like rafe . brady : no , no , no , no . this has nothing to do with hating ej . it has to do with wanting you to be happy . sami : well , i am happy . i am beyond happy . brady : sami . i 've seen ... you with rafe , and i 've seen rafe with your kids , and now that she is back , thank god in heaven , i just think you got a chance at the brass ring here . you have a chance to really be happy the way you deserve to be happy . and i think it 's with rafe .

[ scene_break ] j.r. : when you said you did n't want to let go of me -- marissa : mm - hmm . j.r. : i hope it 's not because of the cancer . marissa : no , it 's -- it 's got nothing to do with that . j.r. : but that 's why you walked out of the cabin . because you were thinking about it . marissa : no , it 's not about the cancer . j.r. : well , then why did you leave ? if it was n't about that , and it was n't about scott , why ? marissa : i got scared . j.r. : scared about what ? marissa : i 'm falling in love with you . [ scene_break ] liza : no , i told you , we 're on a break . he must be in the bathroom . kendall : so , who 's looking after your son while you 're dancing the night away ? or does it not even matter as long as you get to spend more time with zach ? liza : i 'm sorry that you have to go through this , kendall . i know how it must look on television , but whatever looks like is going on is n't . zach and i are working very hard to prove your innocence .

[ scene_break ] morgan : did you become a doctor overnight ? oh , no . you did n't . okay , then how do you know how sick i am , michael ? michael : because i lived it with dad . so did you . you ca n't see yourself clearly right now , morgan , but i can . i - i know what this looks like . it 's the same thing dad went through . you are completely out of control . morgan : i was out of control . i was out of control . okay ? i screwed up . i went off the meds for a little bit , because i was having side effects that were affecting my life badly , okay ? and , yes . you know what ? i thought i could handle being off them and things got a little sideways , but they never got -- it never got as bad as dad - level crap . michael : it 's exactly like dad . do you remember what me , you , and dante went through when dad lost connie ? w - w - we saw him at the haunted star with a loaded gun . he was gon na put a bullet in himself . how is -- okay . how is that any different from you standing on -- on the ledge of a building ? morgan : because it was just talk . it was just talk . i was just feeling badly . it was n't like i was actually gon na do anything . michael : morgan ... you thought kiki was up there with you . you had completely lost touch with reality . morgan : okay , i 'm back on my meds , all right ? i 'm never gon na go off them again . i will take a vow . i will sign my name in blood or whatever you and all the other babysitters would like me to do . but you know what ? everything 's gon na be fine . i 'm gon na get out of here soon . i 'm gon na go back home . everything 's gon na go back to normal . michael : you have no idea what you 're up against , do you ? morgan , i was with you in the police station when you -- when you admitted to taking dad 's gun and trying to kill dixon . you could be charged with attempted murder . [ scene_break ] carly : morgan ca n't go to prison . that ca n't happen . sonny : we 're not letting that happen , diane . carly : i mean , michael barely survived prison . he barely survived , sonny . morgan wo n't . he 's sensitive . he 's like a little boy . sonny : carly . carly : this ca n't happen . diane : carly . carly , i will do everything in my considerable power to make sure that morgan does not go to prison . sonny : you brought it up , though . diane : yes . okay . because i would be remiss in my obligations to you and my client if i did n't lay out the entire range of possible outcomes . look , sonny . the da scored an incredible victory by bringing down those gun runners , but it was tainted when kiki jerome was shot . and because of that alone , the district attorney may throw the book at morgan . sonny : [ scoffs ] carly : why ? ! how does that help ? ! diane : because he needs a scapegoat . instead of it being a clean bust , detective west and kiki were shot , and an entire church full of people were taken hostage . the da may want to hang the blame for that on morgan 's interference . and , you 'll forgive me , he sports the corinthos last name . a jailed corinthos is a big get for a man whose profession is prosecuting alleged criminals . carly : i do n't understand . for years , you have been able to keep jason and sonny out of prison , and they were guilty . you ca n't do the same for my son when he 's innocent ? ! diane : i did n't say that . morgan has an out . it 's just that you two have to be willing to put yourselves on the line to make it happen . [ scene_break ] sam : hi . jason : can i come in ? sam : yeah . jason : i 'm walking over to the hospital . any chance you and danny want to join me ? sam : um ... i was thinking that danny and i would just head home . jason : head home ? why ? sam : yeah , well , jake is being discharged , and i think it would probably be better if danny saw him once he was settled at home . jason : that 's true , but is that really the reason why you want to go home ? sam : i do n't want to get in elizabeth 's way , and i do n't want to make things difficult between the two of you . jason : hey , look . look . we 're all adults here . okay ? and we 're all connected through our kids . that 's not gon na change . so the sooner that we all get used to how things are , the better it is for everyone . sam : are you sure ? jason : yes . i 'm sure . now get ready . let 's go . grab the kid . okay ? sam : okay . [ scene_break ] franco : what do you think ? she 's a beauty , right ? jake : that 's for me ? ! franco : well , yeah . i mean , it 's not for anyone else . although , probably gon na be a while before you can ride it , right ? nurse donna : oh , well , maybe not ride , but he can check it out . franco : really ? i mean , i do n't want to be the kind of person that breaks all the rules . nurse donna : oh , well , the only rule at shriners hospitals is that we let kids feel like kids . let them get back to their lives as soon as possible , hmm ? franco : that 's a great idea . ring that bell . [ bell dings ] franco : they really know how to treat you right here , huh ? [ bell dings ] jake : it 's cool . [ scene_break ] nina : listen , franco does n't know what he wants . if he could just step outside of himself and see what i see ... he 's an incredible person . he 's caring and he 's smart and he has such a heart , and any , any child would be lucky to call him daddy -- any child . he 's just afraid . he does n't think he 'll be a good parent . maxie : yeah , but all parents feel that way at some point . nina : i know ! all parents feel that way . i mean , it 's not like i do n't have my own fears , but the only difference between franco and me is that i think that we can rise to the challenge . you know , i just think that we have so much more to give the world than just , you know , fashion magazines and finger painting . maxie : but if he does n't feel that way and you guys are n't united on the subject , then ... nina : does n't matter . i can talk him into it . we 're rock solid . we 're doing really well . who am i kidding . really , it does n't even matter if i can talk franco into it . the point is moot ... if there 's no adoption agency in the world who 'll give us a baby . maxie : there are other ways to get a baby . [ scene_break ] morgan : you know , if you came here to put me in a better mood , you 're doing a terrible job at it . michael : i 'm just trying to open your eyes . look , you know i 've been to prison . i do n't want that for you , but ... the chances of you skating on this are not great . morgan : skating ? you think that 's what i 'm worried about ? is getting away with it ? i - i -- kiki 's in an icu room . she may never be able to wake up again ... because of me . michael : i know you 're worried about kiki . so am i . morgan : michael , all i want to do is be there with her . i want to -- i want to -- i want to be next to her . i want to hold her hand . when she wakes up i just want to tell her i 'm sorry . i mean , she 's there because of me . michael : i know . i want you to have that chance , okay ? but you 're not gon na be able to if you 're in prison . morgan : mom and dad are n't gon na let that happen . i 'm not a -- i 'm not a criminal . i 'm just a -- i 'm a kid with a condition that did n't take his meds , and i 'm back on track now , and there 's no way i 'm gon na go to prison , so just get the thought out of your head . [ scene_break ] sonny : what do carly and i have to do , diane , to keep morgan out of prison ? diane : simply put -- you have to assume legal responsibility for him . sonny : he 's a grown man , diane . diane : with a well - documented medical illness . he requires treatment , not incarceration . that is the case that i will put to da hornsby . sonny : mm - hmm . diane : who , if he has a brain in his head , will see the wisdom in avoiding a court battle where i will brand him a heartless bureaucrat bent on incarcerating a vulnerable young man who suffers from a terrible , incapacitating mental illness . i will angle for a plea deal which will rule out prison time in favor of probation and mandated outpatient treatment -- overseen by his doctor , of course , where you two come in -- you assume legal guardianship . make sure morgan holds up his end of the deal . sonny : we can do that . diane : of course , this is all contingent on morgan saying yes . he is , after all , my client , but i just stopped by here as a courtesy to you two , to let you know that this deal ca n't happen if you two are n't on board . sonny : no question . no jail time . this -- this is the best outcome you could 've come up with . you -- you think you can pull it off , though , diane ? diane : please . walk in the park . sonny : [ chuckling ] walk in the park . diane : i will be in touch with the two of you right after i 've spoken to morgan . sonny : ah , yeah . thank you , diane .

[ scene_break ] nina : what other way is there to get a baby ? i mean , you know , legally , of course . maxie : okay , well , you do n't have to go through an adoption agency . you have a ton of money . you just hire one of those fancy lawyers and they can do all the legwork for you , set you up a private adoption , so you do n't have to jump through all those agency hoops , and you just pony up the cash . nina : the last time i hired a lawyer , i ended up in shadybrook . maxie : okay , not all attorneys are unethical and awful like your ex - husband . nina : he 's one of a kind , is n't he ? i do n't think i like the idea of buying a baby . you know ? what if the birth mother changes her mind and wants to take it back ? i could never deal with that . maxie : that could happen with any adoption , nina . look , why -- why do n't you and franco just have a baby of your own ? that 's the simplest option . nina : oh . i ca n't . um ... when i came out of my coma , my cousin told me that i could n't have my own child . maxie : wait , what cousin ? not britt westbourne . nina : yeah , i saw her at gh . maxie : and you just took her word for it ? nina : well , she 's an ob . she did tests . maxie : yeah , um , an ob that stole lulu and dante 's embryo and planted it in herself , and then gave birth to pull one over on patrick . i would n't trust her to pull a splinter out , let alone give me medical advice . nina : wait a second . you think she could be wrong ? maxie : wrong or just plain lying . nina : why would she do that to me ? stole ... lulu 's ... embryo . do yourself and franco a favor and just pause on the adoption idea for a second . okay ? and get yourself a second opinion . nina : oh , my gosh . you 're right . you 're right . like always , you 're right . oh , my god . maybe franco and i have a family in us yet . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : what 's going on ? jake : hi , mom . franco : how you doing ? elizabeth : hey . yeah , i 'm -- i 'm fine . uh , but i - i - i asked a question . [ chuckles ] jake : franco and nurse donna showed me my new bike . elizabeth : and this is an awesome bike . where did it come from ? jake : franco brought it for me . elizabeth : oh . wow . that 's , um ... that 's very thoughtful of you . would that not have occurred to me to bring a bicycle into the hospital . franco : right ? you 'd think . but nurse donna told me that this is shriners hospitals is for children and that the only rule is that the kids who are patients get to still be kids . did i get that right ? nurse donna : exactly . franco : uh - huh . elizabeth : [ chuckling ] oh . donna , would you mind taking jake back to his room ? we 're actually getting ready to go home . nurse donna : no problem . elizabeth : thank you . i 'll be in there in a minute , okay , babe ? so this morning , we found out that jake 's bike is a lost cause . how did you know to bring this here ? franco : uh , jake facetimed me . yeah . he seemed a little down . he was talking about never being able to ride a bike again . elizabeth : h - he never mentioned that to me . franco : he mentioned it to me , so ... i hopped in the car , brought jake some wheels . look , i - i hope i did n't overstep any bounds . i was just , you know , i wanted to see a smile on the kid 's face . elizabeth : [ sighs ] it 's really sweet of you . franco : you seem a little grumpy for a mom who 's about to take her kid home from the hospital . elizabeth : i 'm perfectly fine . i just told jason that -- that we 'd wait for him here and , truthfully , i just want to go . franco : jason 's not here ? really ? what could he possibly be doing that would be more important than being here for you ? well , that explains it .

[ scene_break ] morgan : did you become a doctor overnight ? oh , no . you did n't . okay , then how do you know how sick i am , michael ? michael : because i lived it with dad . so did you . you ca n't see yourself clearly right now , morgan , but i can . i - i know what this looks like . it 's the same thing dad went through . you are completely out of control . morgan : i was out of control . i was out of control . okay ? i screwed up . i went off the meds for a little bit , because i was having side effects that were affecting my life badly , okay ? and , yes . you know what ? i thought i could handle being off them and things got a little sideways , but they never got -- it never got as bad as dad - level crap . michael : it 's exactly like dad . do you remember what me , you , and dante went through when dad lost connie ? w - w - we saw him at the haunted star with a loaded gun . he was gon na put a bullet in himself . how is -- okay . how is that any different from you standing on -- on the ledge of a building ? morgan : because it was just talk . it was just talk . i was just feeling badly . it was n't like i was actually gon na do anything . michael : morgan ... you thought kiki was up there with you . you had completely lost touch with reality . morgan : okay , i 'm back on my meds , all right ? i 'm never gon na go off them again . i will take a vow . i will sign my name in blood or whatever you and all the other babysitters would like me to do . but you know what ? everything 's gon na be fine . i 'm gon na get out of here soon . i 'm gon na go back home . everything 's gon na go back to normal . michael : you have no idea what you 're up against , do you ? morgan , i was with you in the police station when you -- when you admitted to taking dad 's gun and trying to kill dixon . you could be charged with attempted murder . [ scene_break ] carly : morgan ca n't go to prison . that ca n't happen . sonny : we 're not letting that happen , diane . carly : i mean , michael barely survived prison . he barely survived , sonny . morgan wo n't . he 's sensitive . he 's like a little boy . sonny : carly . carly : this ca n't happen . diane : carly . carly , i will do everything in my considerable power to make sure that morgan does not go to prison . sonny : you brought it up , though . diane : yes . okay . because i would be remiss in my obligations to you and my client if i did n't lay out the entire range of possible outcomes . look , sonny . the da scored an incredible victory by bringing down those gun runners , but it was tainted when kiki jerome was shot . and because of that alone , the district attorney may throw the book at morgan . sonny : [ scoffs ] carly : why ? ! how does that help ? ! diane : because he needs a scapegoat . instead of it being a clean bust , detective west and kiki were shot , and an entire church full of people were taken hostage . the da may want to hang the blame for that on morgan 's interference . and , you 'll forgive me , he sports the corinthos last name . a jailed corinthos is a big get for a man whose profession is prosecuting alleged criminals . carly : i do n't understand . for years , you have been able to keep jason and sonny out of prison , and they were guilty . you ca n't do the same for my son when he 's innocent ? ! diane : i did n't say that . morgan has an out . it 's just that you two have to be willing to put yourselves on the line to make it happen .

[ bell dings ] franco : they really know how to treat you right here , huh ? [ bell dings ] jake : it 's cool . [ scene_break ] nina : listen , franco does n't know what he wants . if he could just step outside of himself and see what i see ... he 's an incredible person . he 's caring and he 's smart and he has such a heart , and any , any child would be lucky to call him daddy -- any child . he 's just afraid . he does n't think he 'll be a good parent . maxie : yeah , but all parents feel that way at some point . nina : i know ! all parents feel that way . i mean , it 's not like i do n't have my own fears , but the only difference between franco and me is that i think that we can rise to the challenge . you know , i just think that we have so much more to give the world than just , you know , fashion magazines and finger painting . maxie : but if he does n't feel that way and you guys are n't united on the subject , then ... nina : does n't matter . i can talk him into it . we 're rock solid . we 're doing really well . who am i kidding . really , it does n't even matter if i can talk franco into it . the point is moot ... if there 's no adoption agency in the world who 'll give us a baby . maxie : there are other ways to get a baby . [ scene_break ] morgan : you know , if you came here to put me in a better mood , you 're doing a terrible job at it . michael : i 'm just trying to open your eyes . look , you know i 've been to prison . i do n't want that for you , but ... the chances of you skating on this are not great . morgan : skating ? you think that 's what i 'm worried about ? is getting away with it ? i - i -- kiki 's in an icu room . she may never be able to wake up again ... because of me . michael : i know you 're worried about kiki . so am i . morgan : michael , all i want to do is be there with her . i want to -- i want to -- i want to be next to her . i want to hold her hand . when she wakes up i just want to tell her i 'm sorry . i mean , she 's there because of me . michael : i know . i want you to have that chance , okay ? but you 're not gon na be able to if you 're in prison . morgan : mom and dad are n't gon na let that happen . i 'm not a -- i 'm not a criminal . i 'm just a -- i 'm a kid with a condition that did n't take his meds , and i 'm back on track now , and there 's no way i 'm gon na go to prison , so just get the thought out of your head . [ scene_break ] sonny : what do carly and i have to do , diane , to keep morgan out of prison ? diane : simply put -- you have to assume legal responsibility for him . sonny : he 's a grown man , diane . diane : with a well - documented medical illness . he requires treatment , not incarceration . that is the case that i will put to da hornsby . sonny : mm - hmm . diane : who , if he has a brain in his head , will see the wisdom in avoiding a court battle where i will brand him a heartless bureaucrat bent on incarcerating a vulnerable young man who suffers from a terrible , incapacitating mental illness . i will angle for a plea deal which will rule out prison time in favor of probation and mandated outpatient treatment -- overseen by his doctor , of course , where you two come in -- you assume legal guardianship . make sure morgan holds up his end of the deal . sonny : we can do that . diane : of course , this is all contingent on morgan saying yes . he is , after all , my client , but i just stopped by here as a courtesy to you two , to let you know that this deal ca n't happen if you two are n't on board . sonny : no question . no jail time . this -- this is the best outcome you could 've come up with . you -- you think you can pull it off , though , diane ? diane : please . walk in the park . sonny : [ chuckling ] walk in the park . diane : i will be in touch with the two of you right after i 've spoken to morgan . sonny : ah , yeah . thank you , diane .

[ scene_break ] nina : what other way is there to get a baby ? i mean , you know , legally , of course . maxie : okay , well , you do n't have to go through an adoption agency . you have a ton of money . you just hire one of those fancy lawyers and they can do all the legwork for you , set you up a private adoption , so you do n't have to jump through all those agency hoops , and you just pony up the cash . nina : the last time i hired a lawyer , i ended up in shadybrook . maxie : okay , not all attorneys are unethical and awful like your ex - husband . nina : he 's one of a kind , is n't he ? i do n't think i like the idea of buying a baby . you know ? what if the birth mother changes her mind and wants to take it back ? i could never deal with that . maxie : that could happen with any adoption , nina . look , why -- why do n't you and franco just have a baby of your own ? that 's the simplest option . nina : oh . i ca n't . um ... when i came out of my coma , my cousin told me that i could n't have my own child . maxie : wait , what cousin ? not britt westbourne . nina : yeah , i saw her at gh . maxie : and you just took her word for it ? nina : well , she 's an ob . she did tests . maxie : yeah , um , an ob that stole lulu and dante 's embryo and planted it in herself , and then gave birth to pull one over on patrick . i would n't trust her to pull a splinter out , let alone give me medical advice . nina : wait a second . you think she could be wrong ? maxie : wrong or just plain lying . nina : why would she do that to me ? stole ... lulu 's ... embryo . do yourself and franco a favor and just pause on the adoption idea for a second . okay ? and get yourself a second opinion . nina : oh , my gosh . you 're right . you 're right . like always , you 're right . oh , my god . maybe franco and i have a family in us yet .

rey : that is correct . brittany : and , in fact , you were in the process of escorting mr . newman to the courthouse when his wife nikki abruptly confessed , is n't that right ? rey : yes . brittany : and then the very next day , the police arrested phyllis summers , victoria newman , and sharon newman in connect with the same crime . do i have that timeline correct ? rey : you do . brittany : so how did you and the genoa city pd come to believe that phyllis , sharon , and victoria were also involved ? rey : sharon confessed to me . jack : thank you for joining me . kerry : you did say you 'd make it worth my ... while . jack : i picked up a few of your favorites . kerry : jack ! oh ! oh , it 's lovely . i 'm feeling very spoiled all of a sudden . jack : oh , there 's nothing i like better than pampering you . kerry : well , your timing 's perfect because i 'm starved . jack : let me guess -- you skipped lunch , again . kerry : mm , does a handful of sea salt caramels count ?

rey : no . brittany : then where did it happen ? rey : at sharon 's house . rey : are you married , detective ? christine : objection , irrelevant . brittany : oh , i assure you , it 's very relevant . tell the jury what you , a married man , were doing at sharon newman 's house on the night of valentine 's day . rey : i needed to speak with sharon . brittany : about work ? rey : about an unrelated matter . brittany : you mean , it was personal ? christine : objection . i 'll allow it . rey : sharon and i have become friends . i also rent an apartment from her . brittany : so she 's your friend and your landlady , as well as a colleague . christine : objection . sustained , move it along , ms . hodges . brittany : about what time would you say you arrived at my client 's house that night ? rey : i 'd say around 8 : 00 , 8 : 15 . brittany : was she alone ? rey : yes . brittany : what was she doing ? rey : she was working on her taxes . brittany : how did your talk with sharon lead to her alleged confession ? rey : well , she had papers spread all over . i happened to notice a phone bill out in the open , which had a call to 911 from sharon 's cellphone the night of april 13th , the night j.t . hellstrom disappeared . brittany : did you ask her about that call ? rey : i did . brittany : we 'll get back to that in a minute . first , is n't it true that there was another reason you went to see sharon on valentine 's night , and that 's why she felt so comfortable confiding in you ? rey : i 'm not sure what you mean . brittany : did you tell sharon newman that night that you were in love with her ? christine : objection , relevance . overruled . brittany : please answer the question . rey : i explained why sharon 's comfortable with me . brittany : but before you happened to peruse her phone bill , is there anything you said in particular to sharon that would have tended to make her feel even more at ease sharing her deepest secrets with you ? detective , you 're under oath . rey : yes . i told sharon that i loved her . kyle : the only thing that matters to me is that you 're gon na be all right .

nate : uh , well , summer will need some more prep . i mean , we can expedite things on our end , but it 's still gon na take a while to set up . kyle : how long is a while ? nate : do you think summer 's going to back out ? kyle : no . tell me what it is she needs to do . i 'll make sure she does it . phyllis : honey , i did n't even know that you were seeing anyone , and now you 're engaged . okay , to whom ? summer : okay , there 's only one guy that i would marry , you know that . phyllis : yes , kyle ? i -- i did n't think the two of you were barely even speaking to one another . he 's been serious about lola . summer : you 've had a lot going on , so you are excused if you are unable to keep up with my latest adventures . phyllis : well , i have n't been that out of it . i mean , this is happening fast . summer : look at you and dad . you guys got back together in , like , what , five minutes flat ? okay , which i 'm realizing is probably not the best example . phyllis : probably not . summer : but kyle and i , we have all this history , i mean ... the attraction and the love is still there , it just was never the right time . phyllis : timing , and the fact he was dating another woman . summer : the thing with lola was n't as serious as it seemed . phyllis : obviously . summer : they were on again , off again , and they finally broke up for good , and kyle 's been confiding in me about it since i came back to town , just kept reaffirming how connected we feel and how good we are together . phyllis : where is kyle now ? summer : uh , he 's off doing something , but we are meeting up later to talk about plans . phyllis : now ? what 's the rush ? summer : who says we 're rushing ? we 're not exactly strangers . i mean ... phyllis : honey , you can be honest with me . is there more going on than you 're admitting ? jack : good ? kerry : oh ! it 's heavenly . you have outdone yourself . so , come on , when were you gon na reveal this new vision you have for us as a couple ? jack : all in good time . i need you to relax . you seem a little tense . kerry : [ sighs ] yeah , well , you called it before . i 've taken on a little too much at work . jack : any particular reason ? kerry : phyllis is feeling the need to put her personal stamp on the company jack : what interesting timing . kerry : she 's asked me to come up with a new signature product . something to set jabot apart . jack : signature , huh ? fragrance or skincare ? kerry : she did n't give any specifics . just something big . to signal a new era , and ... jack : to change the narrative regarding her leadership . kerry : yeah . that 's part of it . jack : i 'm glad you feel comfortable talking to me about your work . kerry : well , you are a board member . it 's not like i 'm talking out of school . jack : and i respect that the board voted phyllis in as c.e.o . and i think you know , i have stayed out day - to - day operations quite consciously . but i ca n't help but wonder if phyllis is feeling pressured by all that 's coming out in this trial . the devastating impact it 's already having ... i mean , here she is , putting all this extra pressure on you , swinging for the fences with this ... signature product . what you 're describing to me is an executive who 's floundering , possibly in over her head . makes me wonder if it 's time to worry . brittany : when you arrested victor newman for this crime , how certain were you that he was guilty ? rey : certain enough to arrest him . brittany : you thought you had enough evidence for a conviction ? rey : the district attorney did . brittany : despite his protest that he was being set up .... christine : objection . victor newman is not on trial here . sustained . brittany : so , when his wife nikki suddenly confessed out of nowhere , would you say that your credibility with the department took a hit ? rey : no . brittany : really ? that 's commendable . your colleagues must think a lot of you to cut you that much slack . rey : i believe they do . brittany : after your case against victor fell by the wayside and you took nikki into custody , did you have a conversation with the district attorney about the status of this case ? rey : of course . brittany : and did she impress upon you the need to be absolutely sure she 'd get a conviction this time , that the department could not tolerate and could not afford yet another embarrassing mistake ? christine : objection . overruled . the witness will answer . rey : i follow the evidence . brittany : which does n't answer my question . rey : it 's always the goal to have a strong case . brittany : your honor ... did a conversation take place between you and ms . williams ? rey : i would n't characterize it the way ms . hodges did . brittany : how would you characterize it ? rey : well , it was n't a `` win this case , or else `` type thing . we all want justice done and work together as a team toward that end . brittany : you knew that sharon was with nikki the night j.t . disappeared , correct ? rey : yes . brittany : did you show up at sharon 's house the night of valentine 's day and claim that you had fallen in love with her to lull her into a false sense of trust ? rey : no . brittany : to coerce her into making a confession ? rey : that is both ridiculous and insulting . brittany : the only other explanation is that you were being sincere and you really are in love with sharon newman . you ca n't have it both ways , detective . summer : you do realize you have n't even congratulated me yet . phyllis : well , i 'm trying to comprehend the fact that the two of you are engaged . summer : kyle got down on one knee , asked me to marry him , and i said yes . i thought that you understood how these things work , mom . phyllis : oh , my god , are you pregnant ? summer : what ? no ! no ! why would you assume that i 'm pregnant ? phyllis : because i 'm trying to make sense of this . i mean , there has to be a reason why this is all happening now . summer : yeah , i love kyle , and he loves me . what more reason do you need ? phyllis : you do n't expect me to buy that . summer : okay , we were sitting here , talking about everything that we 've been through , what we mean to each other , and how much we have in common , and ... i mean , he just asked me right then and there . we just bring out the best in each other . kyle : hey , hey . summer : hey , that was quick . hi . kyle : we need to talk about the surgery . summer : okay , um , i was just telling my mom about the exciting news . [ giggles ] phyllis : i hear congratulations are in order . kyle : they are . phyllis : well , i 'd love to hear all about it . kyle : i can appreciate how it might seem unexpected , but ... as i 'm sure summer explained ... phyllis : i want to hear it from you . rey : i am a happily married man . brittany : so we 're back to my first theory , that the only reason you said you were in love with sharon was to elicit a confession from her . rey : it was n't like that . brittany : i think it was exactly like that , detective . it sounds like you tricked my client into believing she could trust you , that you would protect her if she confided in you about what she knew about nikki and victoria . in fact , the entire case against her is based on you manipulating her , is n't that right ? rey : no ! brittany : then how would you characterize it ? you would n't say that you groomed my client over time to gain your trust , befriended her , offered to do repairs from her ... christine : objection . leading . brittany : ... rented an apartment from her , even handed her a plum new job on a silver platter ? christine : your honor . sustained . be careful , counselor . brittany : how long have you been investigating this case ? rey : more than six months . brittany : and in all that time , did you become aware of sharon having any history with j.t . hellstrom ? rey : no . brittany : would you say that sharon is friends with the other defendants ? rey : i would say they share mutual interests . brittany : please answer my question . rey : no , i would not call them friends . brittany : so it 's not likely that sharon would have any intimate knowledge of their history with mr . hellstrom . rey : i could n't attest to that one way or another . brittany : fair enough . is n't it true that sharon hosted the girls ' night at victoria 's house ? rey : yes . brittany : and that she instigated this party as a good will gesture to cheer up victoria after she broke up with j.t . ? rey : that is my understanding . brittany : would it also be fair to say that sharon is simply a woman with a good heart who was in the wrong place at the wrong time and made the mistake of trusting a man who said he loved her ? christine : objection ! brittany : a police detective whose only thought was to avoid yet another embarrassing stain on his career . christine : objection ! sustained . brittany : i have nothing further . ms. williams , do you have any questions for this witness/ christine : i most certainly do . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . christine : detective rosales , did you manipulate or coerce sharon newman into making a confession ? rey : i did not . christine : did you go to her house on february 14th with the intention of discussing the case ? rey : no . christine : were you expecting to find evidence at her house relevant to the case ? rey : not at all . christine : when you saw the 911 call in her phone records , what prompted you to ask her about that ? rey : the date . it 's pretty much seared into my brain . christine : anything else ? rey : sharon had been a long time person of interest in the disappearance of j.t . hellstrom . she had been questioned by the department before i was brought in to help solve the case . christine : so when you saw a call from sharon 's phone to emergency services on the night this crime occurred ... rey : i immediately wondered if sharon had placed the call about j.t . i questioned her , and she admitted it , proving my instincts were correct . christine : was she under duress ? rey : no . and to suggest otherwise simply is n't true . christine : even though you had just told her you loved her . rey : one thing had nothing to do with the other . christine : did she reciprocate that feeling ? did she say that she loved you , too ? rey : yes . christine : did you trick her into that admission ? rey : no . christine : or the admission of her role in the death of j.t . and the conspiracy to cover it up after ? rey : no . christine : if you had tricked her , would that have been illegal ? rey : it would not . christine : unethical ? rey : it 's often standard police procedure . christine : at any point , did you advise sharon that it might not be in her best interest to confess about the murder or the subsequent cover - up to the lead detective on the case ? rey : there was no legal need . christine : why is that ? rey : because i was n't there to arrest sharon . i was n't planning on arresting her . that 's not why i was there . christine : so sharon talked . rey : and i listened . strictly voluntary . christine : no need for a miranda warning . rey : no , ma'am . christine : did sharon say or show any sign that she regretted confessing to you , that she had made a mistake ? rey : no . if anything , she seemed relieved to have finally told the truth . till she spoke to her lawyer and changed her mind . brittany : objection . sustained . the witness ' last remark will be stricken from the record . christine : did you view your personal feelings for sharon as an impediment in getting to the truth ? rey : what i do or do n't feel for sharon is irrelevant . i treated her the same way i would treat any person who had just spontaneously confessed to committing a serious criminal offense . christine : are you aware that she recanted her statement after she was arrested ? rey : i am , but it was corroborated under oath by another eyewitness . christine : phyllis summers ? rey : correct . christine : thank you , detective . that 'll be all . mr. baldwin . michael : i have no questions at this time , your honor . you may be excused . we will take a one - hour recess . mia : what the hell , rey ? rey : mia , look , i did n't want you to find out -- christine : rey and i need to talk in private . mia : excuse me , this man is my husband . christine : we 're in the middle of an important trial . mia : how long has this been going on between you and sharon ? christine : your personal business is gon na have to wait . the station . now . rey : i have to do this . kyle : summer and i connect . always have . it 's just one of those things . took me some time , but ... i realized today , with utter clarity , this is what i want . phyllis : well , you make a persuasive argument . summer : [ chuckles ] kyle : just speaking the truth . phyllis : you could imagine my surprise . i , uh ... i do n't know , i thought it seemed you were pretty smitten with lola . kyle : she came along while i was at loose ends . it was a challenge . we were so different . too different . we do n't want the same things , whereas summer and i ... what can i say ? it 's just a better match . i realized this is what i want . i found myself proposing before i even knew what was happening . the words just tumbled out of my mouth . summer : in that moment , i remember thinking , this is what real love feels like . kerry : phyllis is n't a defendant in this case . jack : that 's because she 's done an incredible job protecting her own fanny . kerry : you really think the public 's gon na fault her for that ? jack : i do n't think this story is gon na go away . our vendors , our suppliers , our buyers for the big chains are all going to start distancing themselves from her . look , i respect your loyalty to your boss . my loyalty has to be jabot . i have to get out in front of this thing to avoid disaster . make sure the company 's in the right hands . kerry : your hands ? jack : all i 'm asking is that you keep me informed . tell me phyllis ' plans so that i can steps , if necessary . steps -- kerry : i -- i 'm sorry . is this the new chapter in our relationship you were talking about ? me -- [ scoffs ] bringing you inside information so you 'll know the best time to strike ? jack : you said it yourself , kerry . jabot is my family 's business . kerry : and phyllis is n't just my boss , jack , she 's my friend . and you 're asking me to betray her . christine : how much of that was true ? did you play on sharon 's feelings to get her to confess ? rey : no . no ! no , i -- i would never do that . look , it 's -- it 's a long and complicated story . christine : yeah , well ... i 've got time . rey : first off , sharon and i were never romantically involved . i never violated any departmental rules to help her . christine : no , you just let yourself fall for a woman that you suspected from the beginning might be involved in a fellow investigator 's disappearance . rey : yeah , well , a hunch is n't proof . christine : it just makes me wonder -- i mean , why did n't you warn me so i would n't be blindsided in court ? rey : it was a specious argument . i 'm surprised sharon 's lawyer even went there . christine : oh , no , no , no . i can guarantee you , the jury did not know it was specious . when you say words like `` manipulate `` and `` coerce `` and `` trick , `` it does n't matter to them that it 's all in a day 's work of an experienced cop . rey : you 're right , i 'm sorry . christine : what else have n't you told me ? rey : look , sharon was n't on the list to testify . she recanted her confession , and i thought what we had discussed in private was irrelevant . christine : oh , god , that 's such a lousy excuse for hanging me to dry in front of a judge ! rey : you 're right . i 'm sorry . i should have said something . christine : i can understand that you were trying to protect your reputation and maybe your marriage , if that 's something you even care about , but to do this at my expense -- rey : look , you want my resignation ? nikki : in the years i have known christine , i have never seen her become quite so unglued . victoria : well , rey has a lot to answer for . nikki : yeah , and so do you , by the way . why did n't you tell us about him ? sharon : how was i supposed to do that , nikki ? we 're all being held separately . victoria : well , it makes sense that the four of us were arrested . you confessed , unbeknownst to us . nikki : and then that matched phyllis ' story , and -- voilà ! all the pieces fell into place , allowing her to climb her way out of the quicksand and save her skin . sharon : once rey saw that phone record and started pressing me on it , i was in an impossible situation . victoria : ever since that man came to town , i 've picked up on the chemistry between you two . nikki : we all did . that 's why we encouraged you to take that job at the police station . victoria : are you and rey ... sharon : rey is a good and decent man . he backed away . when mia showed up , he said he was committed to his wife . nikki : mm , but there was still something between you , right ? sharon : that 's what i thought . when rey showed up at my house on valentine 's day , poured his heart out , and told me he loved me ... now i wonder if brittany 's right , if he 's just been playing me the entire time . michael : hey , sharon . please excuse me . i need to talk with my clients . sharon : sure . no problem . nikki : what 's going on ? michael : in light of what 's happened , i 'm changing our strategy . jack : second - guessing phyllis is not something i want to do , but i have to think about all of jabot , the people whose livelihood depends on solid leadership . ever since all this went down , i -- i 've been wrestling with what to do . kerry : and you 've spied an opportunity ? jack : i 'm not gon na apologize for that . not when you and i can protect the company , chart a new course ... kerry : you 're still asking me to spy on phyllis . jack : i do n't like calling it `` spying . `` kerry : well , like it or not , jack , that 's what it is . jack : okay . i had hoped you would see the larger picture , but i 'm not gon na push this . kerry : i 'm glad to hear that . and i never said i would n't do it . there would have to be something in it for me . jack : well , obviously , if i was back in charge at jabot , the possibilities for you would be limitless . kerry : mm , that is good to hear , but ... in order for me to feel comfortable going along with this , siding with you against my friend ... i 'll need you to make me an offer . in writing . kyle : i hope we 've answered all your questions . obviously we 'd love to have your blessing . phyllis : [ inhales sharply ] if summer 's happy , i 'm happy . kyle : thank you . summer : [ giggles ] thank you , mom . you 're the best . phyllis : well , i try . summer : i know . um , i need to go run that errand that we discussed , so i 'm gon na go to the hospital , and i 'll see you back at your place later . kyle : perfect . summer : okay , uh , talk to you later , mom . phyllis : love you . summer : love you . and love you , too . bye . phyllis : are you rushing off , too ? kyle : do n't know . i have this real strict boss . phyllis : oh , she 'll deal . kyle : mm . phyllis : you know , despite our differences , kyle , i am very happy that you will be marrying daughter . kyle : thanks . that means a lot . phyllis : however , i do hope this is more than just a whim or a rebound for you . you know , summer is much more sensitive and vulnerable than she lets on , and if you renege on this proposal , she 'll be devastated . mia : yeah . i came home and popped open a beer . almost took a drink . and me , pregnant ... that 's how upset i was . rey : look , mia , i know it sounded bad , what i said in court today , but ... sharon 's lawyer was putting a major spin on things , made it sound like a bigger deal than it was . mia : do n't you dare stand there and try to convince me i did n't hear what i heard . what everyone in that courtroom heard . my husband , the father of my unborn child , is in love with another woman . michael : rey 's testimony was very damaging . it tainted both of you in the eyes of the jury . victoria : how ? michael : well , they now know that sharon freely confessed , corroborating phyllis ' version of events while your stories remain conflicted . i believe the jury needs to hear the whole truth . why you did what you did , what 's at the heart of this , that you were protecting your daughter from an abusive man . nikki : i 'm more than happy to testify , michael . i have told you that . michael : no , nikki , i 'm not talking about you . i think victoria had the right idea . i want her to take the stand after all , have you give your version of things . tell everything about your relationship with j.t . look , i never imagined i 'd be resorting to this , but ... i 'm putting domestic violence on trial . | mia was in the courtroom when brittany forced rey to admit that he 'd told sharon he loved her . brittany argued that rey tricked sharon into trusting him enough to confess to him . rey denied this . christine made it clear that nothing rey did was illegal . nikki and victoria were taken aback when rey revealed that sharon confessed to him . mia tried to confront rey , but christine insisted on talking to him first . christine privately castigated rey for falling for sharon and for not telling christine about it before the trial . rey offered to resign . michael told victoria that he was putting her on the stand . mia drank some beer , then she touched her abdomen and stopped . summer stunned phyllis with news of her engagement . kyle spent time with lola and told her how he felt about her . phyllis said she was pleased kyle would be her son in law . phyllis told kyle that summer was more vulnerable than she appeared and she 'd be devastated if he reneged on the engagement . jack asked kerry to keep him informed of phyllis 's plans , for the good of jabot . kerry said that if she was going to side against her boss and friend , she 'd need something from jack , and she wanted it in writing . | <s>[INST] [ previously_on ] kyle : i 'll do whatever it takes to save lola 's life . summer : including marrying me . kyle : summer , will you marry me ? summer : yes , i will marry you ! billy : she is our perfect insider , okay ? she is like our trojan horse . jack : no , we are not going to use her a prop . kerry is very important to me . billy : as important as jabot ? rey : this baby means more than anything to me . mia : and our marriage ? are we staying together because your head is telling you it 's the moral thing to do ? sharon : i 'm just as involved as j.t . 's death as nikki and victoria . brittany : detective rosales used your feelings for him to trick you into confessing ! from where i 'm sitting , that spells acquittal . rey : you know , mia , my testimony 's gon na be pretty dry and technical . so if you have things to do , you do n't have to stick around . mia : do n't be silly , of course i 'm gon na stay . i want to be here to support my incredible husband . the baby and i both do . i know how hard you worked on this case , okay ? time to make sure that all pays off . rey : i 'm actually being called by the defense , not the prosecution . mia : really ? how come ? rey : well , it 's a common strategy . defendants ' lawyers try to find some error in the police work to argue that the evidence should n't be admissible . mia : to try and poke holes in the case . rey : exactly . but i 'm confident we did everything right . nikki : why would brittany call rey as a witness ? nick : any idea what 's up ? michael : well , they obviously know something we don't . sharon : are you sure about this , brittany ? brittany : positive . please be seated . ms. hodges , you all ready ? brittany : i am , your honor . the defense calls detective rey rosales to the stand . summer : that proposal ... kyle : was it everything you hoped for ? summer : it was perfect . [ giggles ] i 'm so happy . kyle : i am , too . lola 's got a real shot now , thanks to you . summer : well , a little piece of my liver to save lola 's life , plus , i get to be mrs . kyle abbott . kyle : [ chuckles ] summer : prove that we belong together forever . kyle : i 'm just grateful this is all working out , that you 're willing to do this for lola . summer : yeah , uh , just remember that no one can find out that i 'm lola 's donor , okay ? only you and i can know that . kyle : whatever you want . summer : thank you . um , okay , so i was thinking , for the wedding , that we could start -- kyle : hey , i 'm sorry . i need to cut this short . i 've got some things to take care of . summer : okay , yeah . no , i understand . kyle : but i 'll see you later , and we can discuss everything . summer : sounds good . brittany : you were the lead detective in this case . rey : yes , ma'am . brittany : i 'd like the jury to understand the sequence of events leading up to my client , sharon newman , and the other two defendants being arrested and charged with murder . the da was prepared to put victor newman on trial for killing j.t . , was she not ? rey : that is correct . brittany : and , in fact , you were in the process of escorting mr . newman to the courthouse when his wife nikki abruptly confessed , is n't that right ? rey : yes . brittany : and then the very next day , the police arrested phyllis summers , victoria newman , and sharon newman in connect with the same crime . do i have that timeline correct ? rey : you do . brittany : so how did you and the genoa city pd come to believe that phyllis , sharon , and victoria were also involved ? rey : sharon confessed to me . jack : thank you for joining me . kerry : you did say you 'd make it worth my ... while . jack : i picked up a few of your favorites . kerry : jack ! oh ! oh , it 's lovely . i 'm feeling very spoiled all of a sudden . jack : oh , there 's nothing i like better than pampering you . kerry : well , your timing 's perfect because i 'm starved . jack : let me guess -- you skipped lunch , again . kerry : mm , does a handful of sea salt caramels count ? jack : you 're beautiful , but you work too hard . kerry : mm , and i walk in here to find the antidote -- an ordinary day transformed into a mysterious special occasion . jack : i like your smile . i love seeing your eyes light up . nothing mysterious about that . kerry : no . fess up , jack . there 's more to this than you 're saying . jack : i like that you 're starting to know me better . i like that we 're both getting to know each other better . kerry : i 'll drink to that . jack : and i 'm hoping that today is just the start of an exciting new chapter in our relationship . summer : hi . phyllis : that was one hell of an intriguing text you sent me . summer : yeah , well , um , i know that you 're busy , and i figured i 'd better make it interesting if i was gon na pry you away from that chair . phyllis : well , you did . so what is this about ? why did you want to see me ? summer : uh , well , i have some exciting news that i wanted to share with you . i wanted you to be the first one to know . additional sponsorship phyllis : i know . you found someone . you have a boyfriend . summer : um , there 's not gon na be any more boyfriends . phyllis : you 're becoming a nun ? summer : [ giggles ] no , um ... i 'm engaged ! kyle : a miracle happened . we found a match . a healthy , living donor . you are gon na get the transplant you need . kyle : i wish it had been me , but all that matters is that everything is going to be okay . you can get well , leave this hospital ... and live a long , full life . make every one of your dreams come true . brittany : sharon works at the police department as a victim liaison , is n't that right ? rey : yes . brittany : did she confess to you while you were both on duty ? rey : no . brittany : did she confess at her coffee shop , crimson lights ? rey : no . brittany : at another public place ? rey : no . brittany : then where did it happen ? rey : at sharon 's house . rey : are you married , detective ? christine : objection , irrelevant . brittany : oh , i assure you , it 's very relevant . tell the jury what you , a married man , were doing at sharon newman 's house on the night of valentine 's day . rey : i needed to speak with sharon . brittany : about work ? rey : about an unrelated matter . brittany : you mean , it was personal ? christine : objection . i 'll allow it . rey : sharon and i have become friends . i also rent an apartment from her . brittany : so she 's your friend and your landlady , as well as a colleague . christine : objection . sustained , move it along , ms . hodges . brittany : about what time would you say you arrived at my client 's house that night ? rey : i 'd say around 8 : 00 , 8 : 15 . brittany : was she alone ? rey : yes . brittany : what was she doing ? rey : she was working on her taxes . brittany : how did your talk with sharon lead to her alleged confession ? rey : well , she had papers spread all over . i happened to notice a phone bill out in the open , which had a call to 911 from sharon 's cellphone the night of april 13th , the night j.t . hellstrom disappeared . brittany : did you ask her about that call ? rey : i did . brittany : we 'll get back to that in a minute . first , is n't it true that there was another reason you went to see sharon on valentine 's night , and that 's why she felt so comfortable confiding in you ? rey : i 'm not sure what you mean . brittany : did you tell sharon newman that night that you were in love with her ? christine : objection , relevance . overruled . brittany : please answer the question . rey : i explained why sharon 's comfortable with me . brittany : but before you happened to peruse her phone bill , is there anything you said in particular to sharon that would have tended to make her feel even more at ease sharing her deepest secrets with you ? detective , you 're under oath . rey : yes . i told sharon that i loved her . kyle : the only thing that matters to me is that you 're gon na be all right . [ sighs ] for the first time ... i realized what it is to really love someone . to put their happiness ahead of my own . you gave me that , lola . i owe you so much . nate : kyle . everything okay ? kyle : um ... way more than okay . we 've found a donor . summer newman . she 's agreed to do it . nate : well , listen , let her know i 'm glad to talk to her again , answer all her questions . i 'm sure she has many . kyle : i 'm sure , too . um , listen , nate ... she 's the only one you can talk to about this besides me . summer wants her part in this to remain anonymous . she 'll only agree to be the donor on that condition . nate : you got it . kyle : how soon can we do this ? nate : uh , well , summer will need some more prep . i mean , we can expedite things on our end , but it 's still gon na take a while to set up . kyle : how long is a while ? nate : do you think summer 's going to back out ? kyle : no . tell me what it is she needs to do . i 'll make sure she does it . phyllis : honey , i did n't even know that you were seeing anyone , and now you 're engaged . okay , to whom ? summer : okay , there 's only one guy that i would marry , you know that . phyllis : yes , kyle ? i -- i did n't think the two of you were barely even speaking to one another . he 's been serious about lola . summer : you 've had a lot going on , so you are excused if you are unable to keep up with my latest adventures . phyllis : well , i have n't been that out of it . i mean , this is happening fast . summer : look at you and dad . you guys got back together in , like , what , five minutes flat ? okay , which i 'm realizing is probably not the best example . phyllis : probably not . summer : but kyle and i , we have all this history , i mean ... the attraction and the love is still there , it just was never the right time . phyllis : timing , and the fact he was dating another woman . summer : the thing with lola was n't as serious as it seemed . phyllis : obviously . summer : they were on again , off again , and they finally broke up for good , and kyle 's been confiding in me about it since i came back to town , just kept reaffirming how connected we feel and how good we are together . phyllis : where is kyle now ? summer : uh , he 's off doing something , but we are meeting up later to talk about plans . phyllis : now ? what 's the rush ? summer : who says we 're rushing ? we 're not exactly strangers . i mean ... phyllis : honey , you can be honest with me . is there more going on than you 're admitting ? jack : good ? kerry : oh ! it 's heavenly . you have outdone yourself . so , come on , when were you gon na reveal this new vision you have for us as a couple ? jack : all in good time . i need you to relax . you seem a little tense . kerry : [ sighs ] yeah , well , you called it before . i 've taken on a little too much at work . jack : any particular reason ? kerry : phyllis is feeling the need to put her personal stamp on the company jack : what interesting timing . kerry : she 's asked me to come up with a new signature product . something to set jabot apart . jack : signature , huh ? fragrance or skincare ? kerry : she did n't give any specifics . just something big . to signal a new era , and ... jack : to change the narrative regarding her leadership . kerry : yeah . that 's part of it . jack : i 'm glad you feel comfortable talking to me about your work . kerry : well , you are a board member . it 's not like i 'm talking out of school . jack : and i respect that the board voted phyllis in as c.e.o . and i think you know , i have stayed out day - to - day operations quite consciously . but i ca n't help but wonder if phyllis is feeling pressured by all that 's coming out in this trial . the devastating impact it 's already having ... i mean , here she is , putting all this extra pressure on you , swinging for the fences with this ... signature product . what you 're describing to me is an executive who 's floundering , possibly in over her head . makes me wonder if it 's time to worry . brittany : when you arrested victor newman for this crime , how certain were you that he was guilty ? rey : certain enough to arrest him . brittany : you thought you had enough evidence for a conviction ? rey : the district attorney did . brittany : despite his protest that he was being set up .... christine : objection . victor newman is not on trial here . sustained . brittany : so , when his wife nikki suddenly confessed out of nowhere , would you say that your credibility with the department took a hit ? rey : no . brittany : really ? that 's commendable . your colleagues must think a lot of you to cut you that much slack . rey : i believe they do . brittany : after your case against victor fell by the wayside and you took nikki into custody , did you have a conversation with the district attorney about the status of this case ? rey : of course . brittany : and did she impress upon you the need to be absolutely sure she 'd get a conviction this time , that the department could not tolerate and could not afford yet another embarrassing mistake ? christine : objection . overruled . the witness will answer . rey : i follow the evidence . brittany : which does n't answer my question . rey : it 's always the goal to have a strong case . brittany : your honor ... did a conversation take place between you and ms . williams ? rey : i would n't characterize it the way ms . hodges did . brittany : how would you characterize it ? rey : well , it was n't a `` win this case , or else `` type thing . we all want justice done and work together as a team toward that end . brittany : you knew that sharon was with nikki the night j.t . disappeared , correct ? rey : yes . brittany : did you show up at sharon 's house the night of valentine 's day and claim that you had fallen in love with her to lull her into a false sense of trust ? rey : no . brittany : to coerce her into making a confession ? rey : that is both ridiculous and insulting . brittany : the only other explanation is that you were being sincere and you really are in love with sharon newman . you ca n't have it both ways , detective . summer : you do realize you have n't even congratulated me yet . phyllis : well , i 'm trying to comprehend the fact that the two of you are engaged . summer : kyle got down on one knee , asked me to marry him , and i said yes . i thought that you understood how these things work , mom . phyllis : oh , my god , are you pregnant ? summer : what ? no ! no ! why would you assume that i 'm pregnant ? phyllis : because i 'm trying to make sense of this . i mean , there has to be a reason why this is all happening now . summer : yeah , i love kyle , and he loves me . what more reason do you need ? phyllis : you do n't expect me to buy that . summer : okay , we were sitting here , talking about everything that we 've been through , what we mean to each other , and how much we have in common , and ... i mean , he just asked me right then and there . we just bring out the best in each other . kyle : hey , hey . summer : hey , that was quick . hi . kyle : we need to talk about the surgery . summer : okay , um , i was just telling my mom about the exciting news . [ giggles ] phyllis : i hear congratulations are in order . kyle : they are . phyllis : well , i 'd love to hear all about it . kyle : i can appreciate how it might seem unexpected , but ... as i 'm sure summer explained ... phyllis : i want to hear it from you . rey : i am a happily married man . brittany : so we 're back to my first theory , that the only reason you said you were in love with sharon was to elicit a confession from her . rey : it was n't like that . brittany : i think it was exactly like that , detective . it sounds like you tricked my client into believing she could trust you , that you would protect her if she confided in you about what she knew about nikki and victoria . in fact , the entire case against her is based on you manipulating her , is n't that right ? rey : no ! brittany : then how would you characterize it ? you would n't say that you groomed my client over time to gain your trust , befriended her , offered to do repairs from her ... christine : objection . leading . brittany : ... rented an apartment from her , even handed her a plum new job on a silver platter ? christine : your honor . sustained . be careful , counselor . brittany : how long have you been investigating this case ? rey : more than six months . brittany : and in all that time , did you become aware of sharon having any history with j.t . hellstrom ? rey : no . brittany : would you say that sharon is friends with the other defendants ? rey : i would say they share mutual interests . brittany : please answer my question . rey : no , i would not call them friends . brittany : so it 's not likely that sharon would have any intimate knowledge of their history with mr . hellstrom . rey : i could n't attest to that one way or another . brittany : fair enough . is n't it true that sharon hosted the girls ' night at victoria 's house ? rey : yes . brittany : and that she instigated this party as a good will gesture to cheer up victoria after she broke up with j.t . ? rey : that is my understanding . brittany : would it also be fair to say that sharon is simply a woman with a good heart who was in the wrong place at the wrong time and made the mistake of trusting a man who said he loved her ? christine : objection ! brittany : a police detective whose only thought was to avoid yet another embarrassing stain on his career . christine : objection ! sustained . brittany : i have nothing further . ms. williams , do you have any questions for this witness/ christine : i most certainly do . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . christine : detective rosales , did you manipulate or coerce sharon newman into making a confession ? rey : i did not . christine : did you go to her house on february 14th with the intention of discussing the case ? rey : no . christine : were you expecting to find evidence at her house relevant to the case ? rey : not at all . christine : when you saw the 911 call in her phone records , what prompted you to ask her about that ? rey : the date . it 's pretty much seared into my brain . christine : anything else ? rey : sharon had been a long time person of interest in the disappearance of j.t . hellstrom . she had been questioned by the department before i was brought in to help solve the case . christine : so when you saw a call from sharon 's phone to emergency services on the night this crime occurred ... rey : i immediately wondered if sharon had placed the call about j.t . i questioned her , and she admitted it , proving my instincts were correct . christine : was she under duress ? rey : no . and to suggest otherwise simply is n't true . christine : even though you had just told her you loved her . rey : one thing had nothing to do with the other . christine : did she reciprocate that feeling ? did she say that she loved you , too ? rey : yes . christine : did you trick her into that admission ? rey : no . christine : or the admission of her role in the death of j.t . and the conspiracy to cover it up after ? rey : no . christine : if you had tricked her , would that have been illegal ? rey : it would not . christine : unethical ? rey : it 's often standard police procedure . christine : at any point , did you advise sharon that it might not be in her best interest to confess about the murder or the subsequent cover - up to the lead detective on the case ? rey : there was no legal need . christine : why is that ? rey : because i was n't there to arrest sharon . i was n't planning on arresting her . that 's not why i was there . christine : so sharon talked . rey : and i listened . strictly voluntary . christine : no need for a miranda warning . rey : no , ma'am . christine : did sharon say or show any sign that she regretted confessing to you , that she had made a mistake ? rey : no . if anything , she seemed relieved to have finally told the truth . till she spoke to her lawyer and changed her mind . brittany : objection . sustained . the witness ' last remark will be stricken from the record . christine : did you view your personal feelings for sharon as an impediment in getting to the truth ? rey : what i do or do n't feel for sharon is irrelevant . i treated her the same way i would treat any person who had just spontaneously confessed to committing a serious criminal offense . christine : are you aware that she recanted her statement after she was arrested ? rey : i am , but it was corroborated under oath by another eyewitness . christine : phyllis summers ? rey : correct . christine : thank you , detective . that 'll be all . mr. baldwin . michael : i have no questions at this time , your honor . you may be excused . we will take a one - hour recess . mia : what the hell , rey ? rey : mia , look , i did n't want you to find out -- christine : rey and i need to talk in private . mia : excuse me , this man is my husband . christine : we 're in the middle of an important trial . mia : how long has this been going on between you and sharon ? christine : your personal business is gon na have to wait . the station . now . rey : i have to do this . kyle : summer and i connect . always have . it 's just one of those things . took me some time , but ... i realized today , with utter clarity , this is what i want . phyllis : well , you make a persuasive argument . summer : [ chuckles ] kyle : just speaking the truth . phyllis : you could imagine my surprise . i , uh ... i do n't know , i thought it seemed you were pretty smitten with lola . kyle : she came along while i was at loose ends . it was a challenge . we were so different . too different . we do n't want the same things , whereas summer and i ... what can i say ? it 's just a better match . i realized this is what i want . i found myself proposing before i even knew what was happening . the words just tumbled out of my mouth . summer : in that moment , i remember thinking , this is what real love feels like . kerry : phyllis is n't a defendant in this case . jack : that 's because she 's done an incredible job protecting her own fanny . kerry : you really think the public 's gon na fault her for that ? jack : i do n't think this story is gon na go away . our vendors , our suppliers , our buyers for the big chains are all going to start distancing themselves from her . look , i respect your loyalty to your boss . my loyalty has to be jabot . i have to get out in front of this thing to avoid disaster . make sure the company 's in the right hands . kerry : your hands ? jack : all i 'm asking is that you keep me informed . tell me phyllis ' plans so that i can steps , if necessary . steps -- kerry : i -- i 'm sorry . is this the new chapter in our relationship you were talking about ? me -- [ scoffs ] bringing you inside information so you 'll know the best time to strike ? jack : you said it yourself , kerry . jabot is my family 's business . kerry : and phyllis is n't just my boss , jack , she 's my friend . and you 're asking me to betray her . christine : how much of that was true ? did you play on sharon 's feelings to get her to confess ? rey : no . no ! no , i -- i would never do that . look , it 's -- it 's a long and complicated story . christine : yeah , well ... i 've got time . rey : first off , sharon and i were never romantically involved . i never violated any departmental rules to help her . christine : no , you just let yourself fall for a woman that you suspected from the beginning might be involved in a fellow investigator 's disappearance . rey : yeah , well , a hunch is n't proof . christine : it just makes me wonder -- i mean , why did n't you warn me so i would n't be blindsided in court ? rey : it was a specious argument . i 'm surprised sharon 's lawyer even went there . christine : oh , no , no , no . i can guarantee you , the jury did not know it was specious . when you say words like `` manipulate `` and `` coerce `` and `` trick , `` it does n't matter to them that it 's all in a day 's work of an experienced cop . rey : you 're right , i 'm sorry . christine : what else have n't you told me ? rey : look , sharon was n't on the list to testify . she recanted her confession , and i thought what we had discussed in private was irrelevant . christine : oh , god , that 's such a lousy excuse for hanging me to dry in front of a judge ! rey : you 're right . i 'm sorry . i should have said something . christine : i can understand that you were trying to protect your reputation and maybe your marriage , if that 's something you even care about , but to do this at my expense -- rey : look , you want my resignation ? nikki : in the years i have known christine , i have never seen her become quite so unglued . victoria : well , rey has a lot to answer for . nikki : yeah , and so do you , by the way . why did n't you tell us about him ? sharon : how was i supposed to do that , nikki ? we 're all being held separately . victoria : well , it makes sense that the four of us were arrested . you confessed , unbeknownst to us . nikki : and then that matched phyllis ' story , and -- voilà ! all the pieces fell into place , allowing her to climb her way out of the quicksand and save her skin . sharon : once rey saw that phone record and started pressing me on it , i was in an impossible situation . victoria : ever since that man came to town , i 've picked up on the chemistry between you two . nikki : we all did . that 's why we encouraged you to take that job at the police station . victoria : are you and rey ... sharon : rey is a good and decent man . he backed away . when mia showed up , he said he was committed to his wife . nikki : mm , but there was still something between you , right ? sharon : that 's what i thought . when rey showed up at my house on valentine 's day , poured his heart out , and told me he loved me ... now i wonder if brittany 's right , if he 's just been playing me the entire time . michael : hey , sharon . please excuse me . i need to talk with my clients . sharon : sure . no problem . nikki : what 's going on ? michael : in light of what 's happened , i 'm changing our strategy . jack : second - guessing phyllis is not something i want to do , but i have to think about all of jabot , the people whose livelihood depends on solid leadership . ever since all this went down , i -- i 've been wrestling with what to do . kerry : and you 've spied an opportunity ? jack : i 'm not gon na apologize for that . not when you and i can protect the company , chart a new course ... kerry : you 're still asking me to spy on phyllis . jack : i do n't like calling it `` spying . `` kerry : well , like it or not , jack , that 's what it is . jack : okay . i had hoped you would see the larger picture , but i 'm not gon na push this . kerry : i 'm glad to hear that . and i never said i would n't do it . there would have to be something in it for me . jack : well , obviously , if i was back in charge at jabot , the possibilities for you would be limitless . kerry : mm , that is good to hear , but ... in order for me to feel comfortable going along with this , siding with you against my friend ... i 'll need you to make me an offer . in writing . kyle : i hope we 've answered all your questions . obviously we 'd love to have your blessing . phyllis : [ inhales sharply ] if summer 's happy , i 'm happy . kyle : thank you . summer : [ giggles ] thank you , mom . you 're the best . phyllis : well , i try . summer : i know . um , i need to go run that errand that we discussed , so i 'm gon na go to the hospital , and i 'll see you back at your place later . kyle : perfect . summer : okay , uh , talk to you later , mom . phyllis : love you . summer : love you . and love you , too . bye . phyllis : are you rushing off , too ? kyle : do n't know . i have this real strict boss . phyllis : oh , she 'll deal . kyle : mm . phyllis : you know , despite our differences , kyle , i am very happy that you will be marrying daughter . kyle : thanks . that means a lot . phyllis : however , i do hope this is more than just a whim or a rebound for you . you know , summer is much more sensitive and vulnerable than she lets on , and if you renege on this proposal , she 'll be devastated . mia : yeah . i came home and popped open a beer . almost took a drink . and me , pregnant ... that 's how upset i was . rey : look , mia , i know it sounded bad , what i said in court today , but ... sharon 's lawyer was putting a major spin on things , made it sound like a bigger deal than it was . mia : do n't you dare stand there and try to convince me i did n't hear what i heard . what everyone in that courtroom heard . my husband , the father of my unborn child , is in love with another woman . michael : rey 's testimony was very damaging . it tainted both of you in the eyes of the jury . victoria : how ? michael : well , they now know that sharon freely confessed , corroborating phyllis ' version of events while your stories remain conflicted . i believe the jury needs to hear the whole truth . why you did what you did , what 's at the heart of this , that you were protecting your daughter from an abusive man . nikki : i 'm more than happy to testify , michael . i have told you that . michael : no , nikki , i 'm not talking about you . i think victoria had the right idea . i want her to take the stand after all , have you give your version of things . tell everything about your relationship with j.t . look , i never imagined i 'd be resorting to this , but ... i 'm putting domestic violence on trial .Summarize.[/INST]mia was in the courtroom when brittany forced rey to admit that he 'd told sharon he loved her . brittany argued that rey tricked sharon into trusting him enough to confess to him . rey denied this . christine made it clear that nothing rey did was illegal . nikki and victoria were taken aback when rey revealed that sharon confessed to him . mia tried to confront rey , but christine insisted on talking to him first . christine privately castigated rey for falling for sharon and for not telling christine about it before the trial . rey offered to resign . michael told victoria that he was putting her on the stand . mia drank some beer , then she touched her abdomen and stopped . summer stunned phyllis with news of her engagement . kyle spent time with lola and told her how he felt about her . phyllis said she was pleased kyle would be her son in law . phyllis told kyle that summer was more vulnerable than she appeared and she 'd be devastated if he reneged on the engagement . jack asked kerry to keep him informed of phyllis 's plans , for the good of jabot . kerry said that if she was going to side against her boss and friend , she 'd need something from jack , and she wanted it in writing .</s> | 16,584 |

[ scene_break ] gabi : i am her mother , okay ? the court ca n't take a baby away from -- from their mother . rafe : well , let me tell you exactly what sami said . the court may take issue with you being married to a convicted murderer . gabi : oh , my god . they ca n't take the baby away from me . no , no , no . i - i 'd want to die , rafe . rafe : exactly why you have to take this so seriously . gabi : are you -- are you saying that i should n't marry nick ? rafe : i 'm not telling you what to do . i 'm just saying that you have to face reality . and the reality is , if you and nick and will get into a custody battle , will is gon na use every weapon he has . and nick 's past is a weapon . gabi : no . no , you 're wrong . will would never do something like that to me . rafe : well , maybe he would n't have before . but now sami is involved . and trust me , she will find a way to convince him that is what he has to do . [ scene_break ] will : gabi is not gon na put nick 's name on the birth certificate . sami : i do n't see that there 's a problem with you protecting your own rights . will : gabi wants me to be part of my baby 's life . so does nick . sami : you 're 100 % sure of that ? will : yes . sami : then why not just get the paternity test , you know ? just have it in writing . will : because i am the father , and even if gabi and nick do n't -- want to pretend otherwise , it does n't matter . i 'm the dad . i am the father . sami : [ scoffs ] you do n't think it matters ? i mean , if gabi put nick 's name down on the baby 's birth certificate ? will : then , i guess , if that happens , then i would ask for a paternity test , yes . sami : will , i know more about paternity tests than anybody you know , okay ? and i 'm telling you right now that if gabi puts nick 's name down as the father , then it 's on you . the burden of proof is on you . if she does n't want a paternity test , you 're gon na have to get a court order to get one . and if you think that 's easy , you 're wrong . will : i think you 're just making things up just so i 'll do whatever you want . sami : okay , then do n't believe me . ask ej 's lawyer . okay ? go to ej 's lawyer . look , i get it . you like gabi . but she 's a girl . and she wants the man that she loves to be the father to her child , and in this situation , nick wants that too . you 've seen them together . you want to believe gabi ? fine . but nick could talk her into anything . johnny : i 'm back ! sami : [ laughing ] hey ! oh , sweetheart , did you have fun ? johnny : we went ice - skating ! sami : you did ? johnny : wan na play space avengers ? sami : [ laughs ] will : yeah , i do . can we do -- just a little bit later , all right ? ej : how 's everything here ? sami : fine . uh , i 'm gon na get johnny all cleaned up and then be right back . johnny : you 're not leaving , are you , dad ? ej : um , not right now , no . no .

[ scene_break ] eric : you know , i can see you 're upset , and i do n't think it 's your workload . is it something kristen said ? nicole : oh , please . like i would let her get to me . eric : you said that before , but you seem so different since you spoke with her . i go way back with that lady . i know what she 's capable of . if she 's threatened you -- nicole : she did n't threaten me , okay ? i 'm just -- i 'm in a mood . will you leave it alone ? eric : i ca n't , because kristen has the talent of saying one thing that can get under somebody 's skin . kristen : take it from somebody who knows . you do n't want to fall in love with a priest . nicole : okay , you 're right . kristen did say something that got to me . [ scene_break ] lucas : is that why you came back , 'cause you found out that daniel was the father after all ? chloe : did you talk to philip ? lucas : yeah . chloe : yeah , turns out people were lining up to mess with the paternity test results . lucas : really ? someone went behind your back to betray you ? wow . upstanding person like yourself ? chloe : how 's philip ? lucas : how do you think he is ? chloe : i did n't do this to him . lucas : well , maybe you did n't mean it , but you 're kind of like a whirlwind , are n't you ? enter a guy 's life , knock everything down , and then you just keep on going . chloe : you know , i was kind of hoping that we were at the point where we could just have a polite conversation , but i guess not . lucas : oh , do n't flatter yourself . i 'm over you . chloe : i know . but finding out that daniel is the father of the child you thought was your nephew is probably not your favorite piece of news . lucas : you may have daniel 's son , but you sure blew it with him , did n't you ? chloe : not that you 're gloating . lucas : no , actually , i 'd like you to get back together , really . chloe : really ? lucas : mm - hmm . you deserve each other . not only that , but he 'd have to leave my sister the hell alone .

[ scene_break ] will : so you agree with my mom . that 's -- well , surprise , surprise . ej : look , william , your mother and i both know a great deal about custody fights . will : yeah , with each other . ej : we both care very passionately about our children . neither one of us wants to spend a night away from them . that is something you 're going to understand very clearly when you have your daughter . william , william , when children are the issue , these situations can become incredibly volatile . very emotional . and that 's why you need to arm yourself with the facts . because in a situation like this , if you have a legal document that says that you are this child 's father , that can offer you as much protection as a suit of armor .

[ sighs ] caroline : well , now you know . maya was the one who was n't honest , not me . maybe she had a thing for carter the whole time . rick : no , i do n't believe that . caroline : maybe i 'm wrong . or maybe you just blocked it out . rafael sent this to me earlier . it 's raw footage . rick : [ sighs ] caroline : i said it before ... and i 'm gon na say it again . there 's no way that these two are just acting . cut ! do n't move . we 'll pick it up right there . caroline : i 've made plenty of mistakes . i 've not been gracious in rejection . i -- i tried to keep you and maya apart . yes ! caroline : but i have never wavered in my commitment to you , not even when you left me . i would never be unfaithful to you under any circumstances , not even for pretend . because i am yours , rick . all yours . and that 's what you deserve . i drift within the breeze and the ever - changing tide and hope that every journey leaves me safely by your side i 'd like to take you with me i want to find you there to feel the rise and fall of love floating softly through the air we will sacrifice convention leave behind all that remains and we will dance like wild fire and pray it never rains and in this brave new moment putting fear and doubt aside we open up and lay it bare till there 's nothing left to hide hope : you know the best part about this ? well , not the best , but close ? liam : what ? hope : no one has to leave . we 're home . carter : let 's not get ahead of ourselves . of course rick 's upset right now . it 's new . it 's raw . just give it time to settle . look , the guy 's nuts about you . it does n't have to mean the end . maya : rick has a history of being played by manipulative women . i did the one thing that practically guarantees that he 'd be turned off . i held back the truth . he did n't expect that from me . [ voice breaking ] the look on his face . it was so hurt . it would n't have been hard for me to be honest , so why was n't i ? [ cell phone beeps ] maya : it serves me right if he does n't forgive me . carter : it 's rafael . he ca n't make it . do you want to get out of here ? we can grab a coffee or something . maya : no . thank you . carter : you sure ? maybe you should n't be alone . maya : it 's okay . i have a lot to think about . carter : all right , then . maya : i 'm gon na hang around here a little bit longer . carter : if you need anything ... maya : thank you , carter . you 're a good friend . [ sighs ] caroline : we 've so much reason to celebrate . i mean , think about what we did tonight . feel that chemistry ! caroline : we revived hope for the future . it 's stronger than it 's ever been . we kept you in the president 's office . i mean , that is a major victory , rick . do n't let some girl that does n't even deserve you spoil it . rick : we did pull off a major coup . caroline : you know , working together -- that awesome team that we talked about -- in the boardroom and ... in the bedroom . remember how much fun we used to have ? maya -- she 's just a distraction . but now you know what kind of person she really is , and [ sighs ] she deceived you . you know , all that time working with carter , acting ... [ chuckles ] it was n't acting . it was real . but you do n't have to worry about that with me . [ zipper unzips ] caroline : other men do n't even register . i mean , you [ chuckles ] dumped me for someone else , and i have n't even been on so much as a date . you are the only man that i want ... the only man that i need . give us a second chance , rick . you wo n't regret it . maya : [ crying ]Summarize.[/INST]maya tells rick that she is sorry but it is true . carter spent the night at her place . she makes it clear that nothing happened but a little kissing . she wanted to tell him . she intended to tell him now , but now it 's too late . he 's incensed that she allowed carter to kiss and touch her . she had let rick , the waiter , sleep on her couch but that is because she had feelings for him . he assumes she must have feelings for carter too . he questions her if she wants to be with carter now . she cries that she was hurt when he did n't show up at her opening and she made a bad judgment call . she asks him not to get mad and leave ; they can work this out . rafael ca n't wait to hear all the details about what caroline told rick . she tells him that she is waiting right now as rick is talking to maya . she thanks rafael for being such a good friend . when rick gets back to his place , he finds caroline there with a big bottle of wine thinking he needs a friend . he tells her she was right about maya . she coos that maya does n't deserve him . she is there ready for a kiss . hurting , he looks at her differently . hope informs liam that despite how it looked at the showing , it was a huge success and orders for hftf is pouring in . they make love .</s> | 490 |

[ both laugh ] belle : whew ! wow , i 'm glad you find that so amusing . philip : well , as much fun as it was the first time , i do n't think either one of us is marriage material . and if we were , we 're nowhere near anything like that . belle : hear , hear . philip : but i would like to know that you 're not gon na be with anybody else . that at the end of the day you 'll always come home to me . belle : ah ... how masculine . do n't want marriage , but you want to demand exclusivity , sole possession . sorry , buddy , i am a person , not a commodity . philip : that 's not what i meant . belle : mm - hmm , and that 's exactly what you say when i know exactly what you meant . philip : we 're in love . belle : [ scoffs ] philip : even if that word obviously makes you uncomfortable , do n't deny it either . i felt you tense up the second i said it . belle : you know , you keep telling me how i feel , and i hate that . philip : then i 'll tell you how i feel . i 'm falling in love with you all over again . even though -- belle : even though what ? philip : feels like the first time . belle : oh , you know what ? this all sounds really sweet and sincere , but it also sounds designed to pressure me into telling you i love you too . philip : i guess i thought you did n't need to be pressured . victor : you dirty piece of -- deimos : do you really want to spend what could be her last minutes in this life cataloguing my faults ? victor : give me the antidote . deimos : well , negotiations should n't take long . it 's easy to establish how much she means to you . everything , right ? well , then that 's the cost . everything . everything you have . everything you own . that is the price for saving her life . look at her , victor . she 's barely hanging on . hmm , wow . time is of the essence . i 'd say she has less than five minutes left . lucky for you ... i have all the necessary paperwork right here . all that 's needed is your signature . victor : you 've been a liar ever since you were born . how do i know this so- called antidote is real ? deimos : you do n't , and you wo n't . not until you sign and i give it to her . you 're gon na have to take a chance , victor . in other words , you 're gon na have to trust me .
