[ chuckles ] liam : well , what happened , exactly ? because nobody around here will tell me . pam : it was a hit and run . and the driver had been drinking , and it turns out it was a really close friend of the family , and especially to aly , so it must have been , like , a huge betrayal . i do n't think she 's ever gotten over it . liam : but the -- but the hit - and - run driver 's in prison right now , right ? pam : um ... i think maybe you should ask steffy that . [ scene_break ] wyatt : obviously , hope has a great body . it wo n't be news to anyone . um , but ... she has a very different quality than her mother . there 's something incorruptible about her . where brooke was teasing and seductive , hope just ... is . classy . she 's not seducing you . she 's meeting you as an equal . she has a very ... darla : a paper doll -- that 's all she is to him . aly , you have a responsibility to protect this family from shame . and , honey , i know that , one day , they will thank you . wyatt : ... and the identification will be the strongest if hope is the lead model . we could even call it `` hope 's bedroom . `` rick : uh , that 's a design decision , and , wyatt , you 're not a designer . wyatt : well , i 'd definitely leave that up to those who know . carter : so , where do you come in ? wyatt : well , i mean , it 's my idea . i 'd like some kind of creative control . and as for hope for the future -- i mean , we 're so identified with quinn artisan jewelers that we 'll be glamming her up in beautiful things that shine . aly : why is n't anyone asking if this is what hope wants ? wyatt : uh , i believe it goes without saying that i would n't be pitching this idea if i -- aly : i was n't talking to you . wyatt : [ sighs ] aly : is it , hope ? are you really okay with undressing for the world to see ? hope : yes . i told wyatt i would . aly : wyatt 's not asking . someone who 's known you her entire life is asking . you ca n't honestly be considering this . [ scene_break ] donna : if you 're worried that r.j. 's heartbroken , i do n't think he is . he seems like a pretty happy kid . brooke : [ sighs ] hope was the same way . they had to act happy or else they 'd upset mommy , and that they hate . [ sighs ] i 'm having a bad day . have you ever had a bad day ? donna : [ chuckles ] you kidding ? the question is what can you do to change it ? brooke : yeah , well , the world 's gon na probably keep going round and round . donna : there 's gon na be something to look forward to . brooke : [ sighs ] donna : come on . you 've got to have something to look forward to . brooke : hmm . well , i 've always wanted to be a mother . i 've wanted to be a wife . i wanted to be a successful businesswoman . i wanted to be indecent , just a little bit . [ chuckles ] i 've done all of those things . and i guess you ca n't really be successful forever , right ? it 's just ... donna : it 's just what ? brooke : i just wish i did n't have this terrible ache . donna : it 's hard to be alone . brooke : no , it 's not that . it 's not being alone . i 've done that before . people turn their backs on you , and ... they 're upset with you for one reason or the other . that 's okay . but this time , it 's different . it 's just ... i do n't even want to be with me . [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] pam : it got quiet . liam : maybe wyatt was so magnetic he put everyone to sleep . pam : i really need one stethoscope for work and another one for home . liam : i 'm telling you , there 's no way hope is gon na buy what he 's selling . pam : but is n't that kind of what romance is -- a man keeps telling a woman she 's beautiful until she takes her clothes off ? liam : okay , two things -- one , whatever it is wyatt and hope have , it ai n't romance . two , hope is not gon na let wyatt turn her into some racy reality star all over the internet . i mean , she might say `` yes . `` she might think it sounds kind of fun to do brooke 's bedroom the sequel , but when it comes right down to it , she wo n't do it . she 's gon na balk . i know her . [ scene_break ] aly : how did you tell me you used to feel when you saw your mother undressed on billboards and magazine covers ? hope : i know what i said . aly : ashamed . rick : it 's perfectly natural . kids are embarrassed by things their parents do all the time . aly : there has never been one moment i was n't proud of mine . rick : [ chuckles ] caroline : i mean , hope , do you have some reservations ? wyatt : she does n't . maya : i do n't think you should answer for her . aly : thank you . quinn : can anyone honestly believe that wyatt would be making this proposal without consulting hope first ? hope : which he did . he did . and if you 're wondering if i have reservations , if you think i should have reservations about this , then , i mean , you 're right . i do . this is new for me . i 've never done anything like this before . aly : and you do n't have to . eric : aly 's right about that . hope : but i also think that wyatt is right . i think that hope 's bedroom could be really great for the company . i think it could be great for my line . it could be great for me ... if i pull it off . aly : would liam ask you to do something like this ? quinn : you know what ? you are way out of line , young lady . am i the only one who thinks so ? rick : aly , please -- aly : you may not be a forrester , but you are one of us . and taking our clothes off for money is not something we do . you know grandmother would n't stand for this . rick : contrary to popular belief , stephanie did n't always get her way . wyatt : is this a business meeting or a revival meeting ? aly : do n't say `` yes `` just to make him happy . it 's not you , hope . hope : but maybe it could be . you do n't know if you can do something until you try . aly : there are some things a person just knows -- good from bad , right from wrong . it did n't used to be so hard for you to know the difference . do n't cheapen yourself for him . i 'm begging you , hope . do n't do this . wyatt : this company ca n't be run by a teenager . i mean , come on . she 's supposed to be a shadow . she 's supposed to be silent . i 'm sorry . i ca n't . this is a very serious business decision , and , eric , rick , somebody 's got to say something . i respectfully ask that aly be removed from this meeting . leave , aly . right now . | wyatt tries to dissuade aly from staying for his meeting but she plops herself down anyway . liam shows up and pam tells him something is going on behind those closed doors . she 's seen a very large close up cardboard model of hope with practically nothing on . liam is n't worried . he knows hope is not the kind of girl to be a lingerie model . when it comes right down to it , she will balk . he knows her ! and if wyatt thinks so , then he does n't know her at all . pam is n't so sure . even good girls want to break out of the mold and not always remain angels . pam fills liam in on aly 's mental problems .. the fact that her mom , darla , was so adored and killed by a car driven by a family friend while drinking . she does n't think aly ever got over it . but he will have to get steffy to tell him more . wyatt makes his presentation and aly just glares and twists the paper in her hands several minutes before saying no . eric tells her to please let wyatt finish his presentation . aly addresses hope and says she really can not be seriously considering this . hope says she has had some reservations but yes she is considering it . she thinks it will be great for the company , her line and even for her . | <s>[INST] wyatt : look , you win . you always win , because you 're a forrester , and i never will be . you can quit , you can act a little crazy , you can do whatever the hell you damn well please , because that door will always be open for you , okay ? aly : well , i never stole a gazillion - dollar diamond . wyatt : uh , it was a $ 100 million diamond , and i get that i 'm on probation , and that means i have to be on my best behavior . but , to me , that also means that i have to look out for the best interest of this company , and that 's what this meeting is about . it 's for the company leaders , and , no offense , that does n't include you . aly : oh , well , then , in that case , i 'll just sit right here . wyatt : [ groans ] okay .

[ sighs ] [ scene_break ] pam : it got quiet . liam : maybe wyatt was so magnetic he put everyone to sleep . pam : i really need one stethoscope for work and another one for home . liam : i 'm telling you , there 's no way hope is gon na buy what he 's selling . pam : but is n't that kind of what romance is -- a man keeps telling a woman she 's beautiful until she takes her clothes off ? liam : okay , two things -- one , whatever it is wyatt and hope have , it ai n't romance . two , hope is not gon na let wyatt turn her into some racy reality star all over the internet . i mean , she might say `` yes . `` she might think it sounds kind of fun to do brooke 's bedroom the sequel , but when it comes right down to it , she wo n't do it . she 's gon na balk . i know her . [ scene_break ] aly : how did you tell me you used to feel when you saw your mother undressed on billboards and magazine covers ? hope : i know what i said . aly : ashamed . rick : it 's perfectly natural . kids are embarrassed by things their parents do all the time . aly : there has never been one moment i was n't proud of mine . rick : [ chuckles ] caroline : i mean , hope , do you have some reservations ? wyatt : she does n't . maya : i do n't think you should answer for her . aly : thank you . quinn : can anyone honestly believe that wyatt would be making this proposal without consulting hope first ? hope : which he did . he did . and if you 're wondering if i have reservations , if you think i should have reservations about this , then , i mean , you 're right . i do . this is new for me . i 've never done anything like this before . aly : and you do n't have to . eric : aly 's right about that . hope : but i also think that wyatt is right . i think that hope 's bedroom could be really great for the company . i think it could be great for my line . it could be great for me ... if i pull it off . aly : would liam ask you to do something like this ? quinn : you know what ? you are way out of line , young lady . am i the only one who thinks so ? rick : aly , please -- aly : you may not be a forrester , but you are one of us . and taking our clothes off for money is not something we do . you know grandmother would n't stand for this . rick : contrary to popular belief , stephanie did n't always get her way . wyatt : is this a business meeting or a revival meeting ? aly : do n't say `` yes `` just to make him happy . it 's not you , hope . hope : but maybe it could be . you do n't know if you can do something until you try . aly : there are some things a person just knows -- good from bad , right from wrong . it did n't used to be so hard for you to know the difference . do n't cheapen yourself for him . i 'm begging you , hope . do n't do this . wyatt : this company ca n't be run by a teenager . i mean , come on . she 's supposed to be a shadow . she 's supposed to be silent . i 'm sorry . i ca n't . this is a very serious business decision , and , eric , rick , somebody 's got to say something . i respectfully ask that aly be removed from this meeting . leave , aly . right now .Summarize.[/INST]wyatt tries to dissuade aly from staying for his meeting but she plops herself down anyway . liam shows up and pam tells him something is going on behind those closed doors . she 's seen a very large close up cardboard model of hope with practically nothing on . liam is n't worried . he knows hope is not the kind of girl to be a lingerie model . when it comes right down to it , she will balk . he knows her ! and if wyatt thinks so , then he does n't know her at all . pam is n't so sure . even good girls want to break out of the mold and not always remain angels . pam fills liam in on aly 's mental problems .. the fact that her mom , darla , was so adored and killed by a car driven by a family friend while drinking . she does n't think aly ever got over it . but he will have to get steffy to tell him more . wyatt makes his presentation and aly just glares and twists the paper in her hands several minutes before saying no . eric tells her to please let wyatt finish his presentation . aly addresses hope and says she really can not be seriously considering this . hope says she has had some reservations but yes she is considering it . she thinks it will be great for the company , her line and even for her .</s> | 3,849 |

[ scene_break ] kayla : my mom is staying with joey so i could stay as long as long as you need me to . is there something else on your to - do list that i could do ? abe : no , there 's nothing . [ inhales ] [ laughs ] i could just use a little company . i 'm really missing lexie today . kayla : of course . i 'll stay as long as you need . abe : thank you . kayla : it is going to get easier , you know . abe : will it ? kayla : you know , abe , i have been in your shoes . when i thought that i had lost steve , i must have hugged stephanie a thousand times . i hugged her so tight , i just -- i just prayed to god . i said , `` thank you . thank you for letting me have my baby girl . `` and i could n't believe that her father was not going to watch her grow up . abe : yeah . i could n't believe it either . kayla : i used to -- i used to wait for her to wake up in the morning from her nap . and the day that she started preschool , i could n't stop crying . abe : you know , i - i do n't know what i 'm going to do when theo goes back to school in the fall . kayla : you 're going to get busy . that 's what you 're going to do . and if i know you , you 're going do something that makes a difference . why do you think i went back to medical school ? abe : you know , i need a good job to set an example for theo to feel -- to feel good about taking care of him . kayla : you already set a great example , abe carver . come on , now . besides , you know what ? an important job for you is ? you 're the keeper of lexie 's memory . [ scene_break ] gabi : andrew , you -- you have totally crossed the line , okay ? pretending to be my stalker is one thing , but then going and kidnapping a person , then locking her up -- i mean , do you realize how serious this is ? andrew : you wanted me to help you . gabi : not like this ! not by kidnapping my friend . oh , my god , melanie . did you hurt her ? is she okay ? you did n't do anything to her ? andrew : now look . melanie is fine . gabi : do n't you realize how much trouble you 're going to be in if you get caught ? andrew : you mean how much trouble we 're going to be in if we get caught . gabi : what are you talking about ? andrew : we 're in this together . remember ? [ scene_break ] kate : why ca n't you just tell me the truth ? are you the reason that brady 's been flying around town as high as a kite ? ian : it 's my understanding that brady black was a drug addict long before i ever came to salem . kate : yes , that 's true , but it was n't until you so generously agreed to allow him to marry your soon - to - be ex - wife that he started to slip again . ian : i 'm really surprised that you think i 'd go to such lengths to get between brady and madison . the simple truth , and you and i both know it -- addicts relapse . that is what 's happened . brady black may be strong in body , but he 's obviously very weak in spirit . [ scene_break ] madison : more coffee ? brady : thank you . madison : okay , it 's okay . i got it . i got it . no problem . brady : [ sniffs ] madison : listen . brady : [ clears throat ] madison : hey , i want to understand what 's going on with you ... brady : i know . madison : so that i could help you . will you please talk to me ? brady : what 's going on is that i 'm coming -- i 'm coming off a high here , madison . i 'm coming down . madison : from what drug ? brady : i have n't done anything . i have n't done any drugs . madison , i already told you that . madison : brady , that does n't make any sense , okay ? you need to be honest with me . how can you -- how can you be coming down off a high from a drug if you have n't done any drugs ? brady : i do n't know ! i do n't know ! i 'm coming off something . i do n't know what 's going on with me , all right ? but somebody -- somebody 's managed to get some stuff in here , madison . i think i know who it is . and i think you know who it is too . [ scene_break ] kayla : abe . abe : you know , look . if you do n't want to talk about it ... kayla : no . no , it 's -- i just do n't want to burden you with my problems . you -- you have a lot on your plate . abe : it helps me to talk about because i know i 'm not the only one who 's dealing with loss right now . kayla : it 's not the same . abe : yeah , you 're right . it 's not . you know , things could change . you and steve could have a future . kayla : unfortunately , i do n't think so . i think i 'm finally accepting what i 've known for a long time . and after that conversation i had with steve the other day , i 'm pretty positive that our marriage is over . abigail : aunt kayla . is that really true ? [ scene_break ] ciara : we played baseball ! theo : whoo - hoo ! ciara : we had ice cream ! abe : [ chuckles ] theo : i hit a home run . kayla : hi , baby . [ scene_break ] gabi : i ca n't believe that you would do this to me . and to melanie . andrew : you ca n't ? well , what about chad ? hmm ? what do you think he 's going to believe ? gabi : you would n't tell him . andrew : would n't i ? hmm ? i mean , what do you think chad is going to say when he realizes that you were the one who stood between him and his precious melanie ? [ scene_break ] abigail : you and uncle steve are splitting up ? kayla : why do n't we go out in the garden and we can talk about it ? abigail : yeah , that 's a good idea . abe : hey . so how was your day ? huh ? what was going on ? theo : we played baseball . ciara : and i saw cameron and abigail kiss . can theo show me his new game now ? abe : oh , yeah . yeah , go ahead . go , go ahead , you guys . yeah . have fun , huh ? cameron : put your toys away . all right . yeah . i can explain . abe : [ chuckles ] there 's no need . i was your age once . look , i know you and abigail care about each other . lexie approved . so do i . [ scene_break ] abigail : oh , my gosh . aunt kayla , i did n't even know that you and uncle steve were having problems , let alone talking about a divorce . kayla : well , i have n't really wanted to talk about it . abigail : i 'm sorry . kayla : no , everything 's going to be all right . i do n't think when i came back here to salem that i really thought our separation would lead to a reconciliation . but you ca n't live in limbo forever , you know ? so we are moving ahead with the divorce . abigail : wow . does my dad know yet ? or aunt adrienne ? kayla : no . they know about the separation , but they do n't know about the divorce . and i 'd really appreciate it if you did n't say anything until i have a chance to tell stephanie , and she 's out of town and -- abigail : of course . yeah , i wo n't . i just -- i would n't wait too long to tell everyone . kayla : why not ? well , ciara overheard what you said earlier too . and as much as i love my little cousin , if you want to keep a secret , she 's the last person in the world that you tell . abigail : hmm , duly noted . [ laughing ] i 'm sure that she is going to tell anyone who 'll listen that she saw cameron and i kissing earlier . kayla : well , i 'm glad you told me that so i did n't have to hear it from her . abigail : well , it 's not like it 's a big deal or anything . it really does n't mean that much . kayla : why not ? abigail : well , because cameron 's job here at the hospital is temporary . he was just doing it to help his sister out . and now that lexie 's gone -- kayla : but he wanted to stay here to be close to theo , right ? abigail : yeah . yeah , he wanted to stay longer . but if that worked out , he would have said something . right ? kayla : so you do n't think that he wants to stay here ? abigail : i just -- i know that he was looking at some other jobs in big cities , and i do n't know . he 's a really ambitious guy , so ... kayla : so you do n't want it to end . right ? abigail : i do n't . kayla : well , then maybe you need to give cameron another reason to stay here . abigail : how ? kayla : go and tell him exactly how you feel . [ scene_break ] madison : look , i do n't want to fight with you . i 'm just saying you need to be honest with me . i 'm here for you , and i will help you . whatever you need . brady : we ca n't do anything . there 's nothing i can do about it while he 's slipping me these drugs . madison : okay . what would your sponsor say ? ian is not responsible for your slip . brady : [ sniffs ] you 're wrong . you 're wrong . see , what 's going on is he is screwing with my life . madison : mm - hmm . brady : he 's screwing with my livelihood . he wants to rip us apart . that 's what the man wants to do . you hear me ? madison : why would he do that ? it does n't make any sense . he 's the one who let us be together in the first place . and he 's now with kate who he says is the only woman he 's ever loved . brady : well , that may be true , that may be true . but he 's jealous . he 's a jealous man . he 's infuriated that you chose me over him . and he 's not going to be happy until our relationship is done . that 's what he 's doing . madison : okay , i lived with the man . i was married to him . i know who he is . you do n't have to tell me -- brady : you need to think about this because it 's the truth . did you think about this ? it 's what he 's doing . madison : okay . even if it made sense , which it does n't , how would he possibly be getting drugs into your system ? how would he do that ? brady : i do n't know . madison , i do n't know . madison : okay . you know , i got to go to work or i 'm going to be late for our meeting , so ... brady : then i 'm going jump into the shower and i 'm going to meet you there . madison : no , no , no , do n't . brady : i can do that . madison : no , no , no . listen to me . i need you to stay here and just pull yourself together , okay ? take some time and get yourself together . focus on that . please . brady : you sure ? i can -- i can -- madison : no , no , no , really . please . i 'll see you later , okay ? brady : all right . [ sighs ] oh , maggie , if i ever needed a sponsor , damn it , it 's now . come on , damn it . oh , god . [ panting ] there 's only one [ indistinct ] going to help me now . [ scene_break ] ian : you really must think the worst of me if you think i would give drugs to a drug addict . kate : well , i do n't want to but in this case ... ian : what would i gain by -- by drugging brady black ? kate : you 'd keep him away from madison . ian : and why would i want to do that ? why would i care when i have the woman that i love right here ? kate : thank you for that . ian : it 's the truth . i do n't care about brady and madison . and i do n't care what drugs brady snorts or swallows or injects into his body . the only thing i care about is he does not screw up our business . kate : well , madison and i will not let that happen . ian : you forget . it 's already happened . [ cell phone rings ] [ ringing stops ] ian : is that something i should know about ? kate : oh , it 's madison . brady is not going to make the meeting . ian : well , it 's probably for the best . kate : i should get going . i 'm probably going to have to do damage control . ian : [ sighs ] keep me posted . kate : i will . ian : hello ? it 's me . we have brady black right where i want him . yes , he 's going to need something very soon . keep a very close watch on him . i do n't want to lose this opportunity . [ scene_break ] gabi : andrew , please , you ca n't tell chad . andrew : oh . i wo n't . just as long as you promise not to say anything because if you tell the cops ... gabi , there 's no going back . besides , i think i did you a huge favor . gabi : i never asked you to do anything this extreme . andrew : so you say . but i mean , it did give you time alone with chad . gabi : yeah . andrew : and you have me to thank for that . gabi : but you ca n't -- andrew , you ca n't go around just kidnapping people , okay ? melanie has friends . i mean , people are going to think the worst . andrew : and you really care what other people have to say ? gabi : yes , i do care . i do care , and i ca n't -- i 'm sorry , i can not follow through with this . i ca n't . here you go little man . [ scene_break ] cameron : thank you for saying that . i 'm glad that you and lexie approve because i really like abigail a lot . abe : well , i can see that . cameron : it 's just -- we get each other . and in my experience , that does n't seem to happen very often . actually , it did n't even happen with us at first . abe : [ chuckles ] you know , i 've known abigail her whole life , and she 's grown into a very special young woman . cameron : she adores theo . so we know she has good taste in men . abe : yeah , well , let me tell you . he 's her biggest fan . and if there 's anybody in the family who 's a good judge of character , it 's theo . look at how much he loves you . cameron : he 's a great kid . i 'm glad i have this opportunity to be a part of his life . i just wish i could have got to know my sister a little better too . abe : me too . she was a remarkable woman . she 's probably one of the most selfless people i 've ever met . and do n't get me wrong . i mean , we -- we had our problems from time to time . but she is my one true love . cameron : i hope i can find that kind of love one day . abe : well , who knows ? maybe you already have . [ scene_break ] abigail : i think cameron knows how i feel about him . kayla : well , you do n't sound very sure . abigail : [ sighs ] kayla : you know , you need to be sure that he knows how you feel . especially if he 's going to take a job somewhere else . abigail : yeah , you 're probably right . kayla : but ? abigail : but -- i mean , come on , aunt kayla . i have made some huge mistakes in relationships lately . kayla : you being with austin . abigail : yeah . and chad too . i - i started assuming too much about what was happening and i just -- i do n't want to make those mistakes again . kayla : so you 're afraid to put yourself out there with cameron . abigail : i do n't want to lose him as a friend . kayla : well , that 's understandable , but nobody said that you would . okay , all right . so you 've made a few mistakes . love requires taking a chance . you have to at least let him know what you think about him . abigail : [ sighs ] what if he does n't feel the same way ? kayla : well , that 's good know too , is n't it ? and the sooner the better before you get swept away . abigail : i just -- i do n't know if i can take that risk . kayla : okay , then try this . why do n't you just ask him what he feels ? i think you 're going to be really pleasantly surprised . [ scene_break ] andrew : fine . if this whole situation really makes you that uncomfortable , well , you got to take your chances with the law . well , then i 'll just release melanie right now . but keep in mind that you are risking losing chad . forever . gabi : it 's the right thing to do . i have no choice . andrew : of course . but you do realize that melanie will go right to the cops . and when she does , my very lovely co - conspirator -- you and i will end up spending a very long time in statesville prison . but -- well , there 's no use in putting off the inevitable . so i 'm just going to release melanie so that she can be reunited with her love , chad , right now . gabi : wait . oh , my god , i ca n't believe it 's come to this right now . i just wanted to pretend for you to be my stalker . that 's it , that 's all i wanted . andrew : well , the stakes have risen . gabi : yeah , because of you -- because you kidnapped somebody . andrew : [ laughs ] look , in time , we will release melanie . but we will do it in such a way where she has no idea who was actually holding her or where it was . gabi : is that even possible ? andrew : yes . you see , melanie has n't seen my face . and she has no idea about your involvement . gabi : thank god . andrew : hmm . look , and by the time that we actually do release her , it will be far too late for her and chad because he will be so in love with you . that is if you still think that you can get him to fall in love with you . gabi : of course i can make him fall in love with me . just -- i -- andrew : what ? gabi : andrew , i do n't want my friend to get hurt . andrew : oh , melanie will be fine . i 'll take good care of her , i promise . [ scene_break ] abigail : after austin , i just -- i 'm really self - conscious about putting my feelings out there . i think that cameron knows how i feel about him . i mean , he has to . if he does n't -- kayla : oh , he 's clueless for sure . abigail : or maybe i 'm clueless , i do n't know . kayla : no , i do n't think you are . i think you need to let your heart be your guide . if it does n't feel right , do n't do it . abigail : yeah . kayla : you know , when i first met steve , he was not the man my parents exactly had in mind for me . but i knew that we had something special , and i trusted those feelings , and i took a chance on us . and maybe we 're not spending a lifetime together . but we had a lot of wonderful years together . and we have two fabulous kids . abigail : aunt kayla , i 'm so sorry that it did n't last a lifetime though . kayla : yeah , well , you know , it does n't last a lifetime for a lot of couples no matter how much they love each other . look at abe and lexie . can you imagine if he had n't gone up to her in the salem pd all those years ago and tell her how he felt ? what they would have missed out on . abigail : yeah . yeah , you 're right . no matter what happens , i have to tell cameron how i feel about him . kayla : there you go . that 's my girl . abigail : thank you . [ scene_break ] cameron : i do like abigail a lot . i 'd like to get to know her better . abe : ciara already figured that out . [ laughing ] [ cell phone rings ] cameron : oh . excuse me , this is the call i 've been waiting for . abe : oh , all right . cameron : [ clears throat ] hello ? yes , this is cameron davis . thank you . [ clears throat ] of course , i 'm very grateful for the offer . so -- so when would i have to be in chicago to start ? [ scene_break ] gabi : look , you ca n't hurt melanie no matter what happens . andrew : it 's what i just said . gabi : yeah , but i did n't like the way you said it . andrew : [ scoffs ] look , i would be more worried about melanie hurting me , all right ? she tried to escape earlier . gabi : what ? she tried to escape ? what 's going to happen to us if she escapes ? andrew : do n't worry . i took care of it . gabi : okay , but do n't -- do n't hurt her , please . even if she tries to escape , all right ? she 's -- she 's been a really good friend to me . andrew : oh , i get it . look , melanie is just an innocent bystander in this entire situation . i mean , the whole reason that she 's under lock and key right now is that she just happened to have the bad luck of falling in love with chad . and well , what a bummer that chad happened to be the dream guy of her good friend , gabi . and that you would be willing to plot and scheme and do just about anything to steal him away from her . gabi : shut up , andrew . it was n't like that . you do n't know what you 're talking about . andrew : do n't i ? i mean , the whole reason that melanie is not with chad right now is because of me . so the longer that she 's gone , it 's the better for you . right ? so what i suggest is that you stop disrespecting me and take advantage of the golden opportunity that i 've given you . [ scene_break ] brady : [ sniffs ] [ cell phone rings ] brady : yeah . great , great . `` meet me at -- `` [ scene_break ] kate : [ clears throat ] okay , so everything under control ? madison : absolutely . we should be ready to start soon . kate : then why does it look like brady 's not the only one who should have stayed home . madison : i 'm fine . kate : what about brady ? madison : he 's just not feeling very well . kate : again . madison : look , it 's not what you think , okay ? it 's a bug . it 's like a 24-hour thing . kate : madison , come on . when are you going to face the facts ? your boyfriend is on drugs again . [ scene_break ] cameron : that 's great . i accept , i ca n't wait to start . any other details i need to know ? kayla : where are the kids ? abe : oh , they 're playing upstairs . kayla : maybe we should go check up on them , and let them have a moment alone . abe : yeah , come on . let 's go . cameron : okay . thank you again . abigail . i did n't see you . abigail : well , it sounds like congratulations are in order . you accepted a job ? cameron : yes . i 'm so excited . abigail : when do you start ? cameron : immediately . tomorrow . abigail : oh . that 's -- that 's fast . so i guess we should say our good - byes now , right ? [ scene_break ] andrew : so what 's it going to be ? hmm ? are you going to let melanie go or not ? gabi : [ sighs ] fine . keep melanie out of the way for now . and do n't let her get away again . andrew : no worries . gabi : but i do n't want anything to do with what 's happening here . all right ? the only thing that i 'm focused on is getting chad . andrew : as you should . gabi : and promise me you 're going treat melanie well . andrew : look , i gave you my word . all right ? i 'll take good care of melanie . do n't you worry .

[ sighs ] it was -- it was a terrible , terrible time . madison : i 'm sorry . kate : do n't be sorry . you just need to listen . okay ? at first , there 's denial . and then there 's guilt . and then all you can really , really think about is whether they 're ever going to get better or whether they 're going to end up dead . so if you love brady as much as you say you do , then you need to take action . and you need to do it before it 's too late .

[ scene_break ] madison : kate , i appreciate your concern and -- and your honesty about what you 've been through with your own children , but i know brady . kate : i know him too , madison . madison : then you need to accept the fact that he 's just sick . and i will do everything i can to help him . kate : now i 'm really impressed . denial and guilt at the same time . you need to wake up . [ cell phone rings ] kate : okay . our client 's here . i 'm going to see them up . brady does need your help . but he does n't need excuses . he does n't need someone to enable him .

[ scene_break ] kayla : my mom is staying with joey so i could stay as long as long as you need me to . is there something else on your to - do list that i could do ? abe : no , there 's nothing . [ inhales ] [ laughs ] i could just use a little company . i 'm really missing lexie today . kayla : of course . i 'll stay as long as you need . abe : thank you . kayla : it is going to get easier , you know . abe : will it ? kayla : you know , abe , i have been in your shoes . when i thought that i had lost steve , i must have hugged stephanie a thousand times . i hugged her so tight , i just -- i just prayed to god . i said , `` thank you . thank you for letting me have my baby girl . `` and i could n't believe that her father was not going to watch her grow up . abe : yeah . i could n't believe it either . kayla : i used to -- i used to wait for her to wake up in the morning from her nap . and the day that she started preschool , i could n't stop crying . abe : you know , i - i do n't know what i 'm going to do when theo goes back to school in the fall . kayla : you 're going to get busy . that 's what you 're going to do . and if i know you , you 're going do something that makes a difference . why do you think i went back to medical school ? abe : you know , i need a good job to set an example for theo to feel -- to feel good about taking care of him . kayla : you already set a great example , abe carver . come on , now . besides , you know what ? an important job for you is ? you 're the keeper of lexie 's memory . [ scene_break ] gabi : andrew , you -- you have totally crossed the line , okay ? pretending to be my stalker is one thing , but then going and kidnapping a person , then locking her up -- i mean , do you realize how serious this is ? andrew : you wanted me to help you . gabi : not like this ! not by kidnapping my friend . oh , my god , melanie . did you hurt her ? is she okay ? you did n't do anything to her ? andrew : now look . melanie is fine . gabi : do n't you realize how much trouble you 're going to be in if you get caught ? andrew : you mean how much trouble we 're going to be in if we get caught . gabi : what are you talking about ? andrew : we 're in this together . remember ? [ scene_break ] kate : why ca n't you just tell me the truth ? are you the reason that brady 's been flying around town as high as a kite ? ian : it 's my understanding that brady black was a drug addict long before i ever came to salem . kate : yes , that 's true , but it was n't until you so generously agreed to allow him to marry your soon - to - be ex - wife that he started to slip again . ian : i 'm really surprised that you think i 'd go to such lengths to get between brady and madison . the simple truth , and you and i both know it -- addicts relapse . that is what 's happened . brady black may be strong in body , but he 's obviously very weak in spirit . [ scene_break ] madison : more coffee ? brady : thank you . madison : okay , it 's okay . i got it . i got it . no problem . brady : [ sniffs ] madison : listen . brady : [ clears throat ] madison : hey , i want to understand what 's going on with you ... brady : i know . madison : so that i could help you . will you please talk to me ? brady : what 's going on is that i 'm coming -- i 'm coming off a high here , madison . i 'm coming down . madison : from what drug ? brady : i have n't done anything . i have n't done any drugs . madison , i already told you that . madison : brady , that does n't make any sense , okay ? you need to be honest with me . how can you -- how can you be coming down off a high from a drug if you have n't done any drugs ? brady : i do n't know ! i do n't know ! i 'm coming off something . i do n't know what 's going on with me , all right ? but somebody -- somebody 's managed to get some stuff in here , madison . i think i know who it is . and i think you know who it is too . [ scene_break ] kayla : abe . abe : you know , look . if you do n't want to talk about it ... kayla : no . no , it 's -- i just do n't want to burden you with my problems . you -- you have a lot on your plate . abe : it helps me to talk about because i know i 'm not the only one who 's dealing with loss right now . kayla : it 's not the same . abe : yeah , you 're right . it 's not . you know , things could change . you and steve could have a future . kayla : unfortunately , i do n't think so . i think i 'm finally accepting what i 've known for a long time . and after that conversation i had with steve the other day , i 'm pretty positive that our marriage is over . abigail : aunt kayla . is that really true ? [ scene_break ] ciara : we played baseball ! theo : whoo - hoo ! ciara : we had ice cream ! abe : [ chuckles ] theo : i hit a home run . kayla : hi , baby . [ scene_break ] gabi : i ca n't believe that you would do this to me . and to melanie . andrew : you ca n't ? well , what about chad ? hmm ? what do you think he 's going to believe ? gabi : you would n't tell him . andrew : would n't i ? hmm ? i mean , what do you think chad is going to say when he realizes that you were the one who stood between him and his precious melanie ? [ scene_break ] abigail : you and uncle steve are splitting up ? kayla : why do n't we go out in the garden and we can talk about it ? abigail : yeah , that 's a good idea . abe : hey . so how was your day ? huh ? what was going on ? theo : we played baseball . ciara : and i saw cameron and abigail kiss . can theo show me his new game now ? abe : oh , yeah . yeah , go ahead . go , go ahead , you guys . yeah . have fun , huh ? cameron : put your toys away . all right . yeah . i can explain . abe : [ chuckles ] there 's no need . i was your age once . look , i know you and abigail care about each other . lexie approved . so do i . [ scene_break ] abigail : oh , my gosh . aunt kayla , i did n't even know that you and uncle steve were having problems , let alone talking about a divorce . kayla : well , i have n't really wanted to talk about it . abigail : i 'm sorry . kayla : no , everything 's going to be all right . i do n't think when i came back here to salem that i really thought our separation would lead to a reconciliation . but you ca n't live in limbo forever , you know ? so we are moving ahead with the divorce . abigail : wow . does my dad know yet ? or aunt adrienne ? kayla : no . they know about the separation , but they do n't know about the divorce . and i 'd really appreciate it if you did n't say anything until i have a chance to tell stephanie , and she 's out of town and -- abigail : of course . yeah , i wo n't . i just -- i would n't wait too long to tell everyone . kayla : why not ? well , ciara overheard what you said earlier too . and as much as i love my little cousin , if you want to keep a secret , she 's the last person in the world that you tell . abigail : hmm , duly noted . [ laughing ] i 'm sure that she is going to tell anyone who 'll listen that she saw cameron and i kissing earlier . kayla : well , i 'm glad you told me that so i did n't have to hear it from her . abigail : well , it 's not like it 's a big deal or anything . it really does n't mean that much . kayla : why not ? abigail : well , because cameron 's job here at the hospital is temporary . he was just doing it to help his sister out . and now that lexie 's gone -- kayla : but he wanted to stay here to be close to theo , right ? abigail : yeah . yeah , he wanted to stay longer . but if that worked out , he would have said something . right ? kayla : so you do n't think that he wants to stay here ? abigail : i just -- i know that he was looking at some other jobs in big cities , and i do n't know . he 's a really ambitious guy , so ... kayla : so you do n't want it to end . right ? abigail : i do n't . kayla : well , then maybe you need to give cameron another reason to stay here . abigail : how ? kayla : go and tell him exactly how you feel . [ scene_break ] madison : look , i do n't want to fight with you . i 'm just saying you need to be honest with me . i 'm here for you , and i will help you . whatever you need . brady : we ca n't do anything . there 's nothing i can do about it while he 's slipping me these drugs . madison : okay . what would your sponsor say ? ian is not responsible for your slip . brady : [ sniffs ] you 're wrong . you 're wrong . see , what 's going on is he is screwing with my life . madison : mm - hmm . brady : he 's screwing with my livelihood . he wants to rip us apart . that 's what the man wants to do . you hear me ? madison : why would he do that ? it does n't make any sense . he 's the one who let us be together in the first place . and he 's now with kate who he says is the only woman he 's ever loved . brady : well , that may be true , that may be true . but he 's jealous . he 's a jealous man . he 's infuriated that you chose me over him . and he 's not going to be happy until our relationship is done . that 's what he 's doing . madison : okay , i lived with the man . i was married to him . i know who he is . you do n't have to tell me -- brady : you need to think about this because it 's the truth . did you think about this ? it 's what he 's doing . madison : okay . even if it made sense , which it does n't , how would he possibly be getting drugs into your system ? how would he do that ? brady : i do n't know . madison , i do n't know . madison : okay . you know , i got to go to work or i 'm going to be late for our meeting , so ... brady : then i 'm going jump into the shower and i 'm going to meet you there . madison : no , no , no , do n't . brady : i can do that . madison : no , no , no . listen to me . i need you to stay here and just pull yourself together , okay ? take some time and get yourself together . focus on that . please . brady : you sure ? i can -- i can -- madison : no , no , no , really . please . i 'll see you later , okay ? brady : all right . [ sighs ] oh , maggie , if i ever needed a sponsor , damn it , it 's now . come on , damn it . oh , god . [ panting ] there 's only one [ indistinct ] going to help me now . [ scene_break ] ian : you really must think the worst of me if you think i would give drugs to a drug addict . kate : well , i do n't want to but in this case ... ian : what would i gain by -- by drugging brady black ? kate : you 'd keep him away from madison . ian : and why would i want to do that ? why would i care when i have the woman that i love right here ? kate : thank you for that . ian : it 's the truth . i do n't care about brady and madison . and i do n't care what drugs brady snorts or swallows or injects into his body . the only thing i care about is he does not screw up our business . kate : well , madison and i will not let that happen . ian : you forget . it 's already happened . [ cell phone rings ] [ ringing stops ] ian : is that something i should know about ? kate : oh , it 's madison . brady is not going to make the meeting . ian : well , it 's probably for the best . kate : i should get going . i 'm probably going to have to do damage control . ian : [ sighs ] keep me posted . kate : i will . ian : hello ? it 's me . we have brady black right where i want him . yes , he 's going to need something very soon . keep a very close watch on him . i do n't want to lose this opportunity . [ scene_break ] gabi : andrew , please , you ca n't tell chad . andrew : oh . i wo n't . just as long as you promise not to say anything because if you tell the cops ... gabi , there 's no going back . besides , i think i did you a huge favor . gabi : i never asked you to do anything this extreme . andrew : so you say . but i mean , it did give you time alone with chad . gabi : yeah . andrew : and you have me to thank for that . gabi : but you ca n't -- andrew , you ca n't go around just kidnapping people , okay ? melanie has friends . i mean , people are going to think the worst . andrew : and you really care what other people have to say ? gabi : yes , i do care . i do care , and i ca n't -- i 'm sorry , i can not follow through with this . i ca n't . here you go little man . [ scene_break ] cameron : thank you for saying that . i 'm glad that you and lexie approve because i really like abigail a lot . abe : well , i can see that . cameron : it 's just -- we get each other . and in my experience , that does n't seem to happen very often . actually , it did n't even happen with us at first . abe : [ chuckles ] you know , i 've known abigail her whole life , and she 's grown into a very special young woman . cameron : she adores theo . so we know she has good taste in men . abe : yeah , well , let me tell you . he 's her biggest fan . and if there 's anybody in the family who 's a good judge of character , it 's theo . look at how much he loves you . cameron : he 's a great kid . i 'm glad i have this opportunity to be a part of his life . i just wish i could have got to know my sister a little better too . abe : me too . she was a remarkable woman . she 's probably one of the most selfless people i 've ever met . and do n't get me wrong . i mean , we -- we had our problems from time to time . but she is my one true love . cameron : i hope i can find that kind of love one day . abe : well , who knows ? maybe you already have . [ scene_break ] abigail : i think cameron knows how i feel about him . kayla : well , you do n't sound very sure . abigail : [ sighs ] kayla : you know , you need to be sure that he knows how you feel . especially if he 's going to take a job somewhere else . abigail : yeah , you 're probably right . kayla : but ? abigail : but -- i mean , come on , aunt kayla . i have made some huge mistakes in relationships lately . kayla : you being with austin . abigail : yeah . and chad too . i - i started assuming too much about what was happening and i just -- i do n't want to make those mistakes again . kayla : so you 're afraid to put yourself out there with cameron . abigail : i do n't want to lose him as a friend . kayla : well , that 's understandable , but nobody said that you would . okay , all right . so you 've made a few mistakes . love requires taking a chance . you have to at least let him know what you think about him . abigail : [ sighs ] what if he does n't feel the same way ? kayla : well , that 's good know too , is n't it ? and the sooner the better before you get swept away . abigail : i just -- i do n't know if i can take that risk . kayla : okay , then try this . why do n't you just ask him what he feels ? i think you 're going to be really pleasantly surprised . [ scene_break ] andrew : fine . if this whole situation really makes you that uncomfortable , well , you got to take your chances with the law . well , then i 'll just release melanie right now . but keep in mind that you are risking losing chad . forever . gabi : it 's the right thing to do . i have no choice . andrew : of course . but you do realize that melanie will go right to the cops . and when she does , my very lovely co - conspirator -- you and i will end up spending a very long time in statesville prison . but -- well , there 's no use in putting off the inevitable . so i 'm just going to release melanie so that she can be reunited with her love , chad , right now . gabi : wait . oh , my god , i ca n't believe it 's come to this right now . i just wanted to pretend for you to be my stalker . that 's it , that 's all i wanted . andrew : well , the stakes have risen . gabi : yeah , because of you -- because you kidnapped somebody . andrew : [ laughs ] look , in time , we will release melanie . but we will do it in such a way where she has no idea who was actually holding her or where it was . gabi : is that even possible ? andrew : yes . you see , melanie has n't seen my face . and she has no idea about your involvement . gabi : thank god . andrew : hmm . look , and by the time that we actually do release her , it will be far too late for her and chad because he will be so in love with you . that is if you still think that you can get him to fall in love with you . gabi : of course i can make him fall in love with me . just -- i -- andrew : what ? gabi : andrew , i do n't want my friend to get hurt . andrew : oh , melanie will be fine . i 'll take good care of her , i promise . [ scene_break ] abigail : after austin , i just -- i 'm really self - conscious about putting my feelings out there . i think that cameron knows how i feel about him . i mean , he has to . if he does n't -- kayla : oh , he 's clueless for sure . abigail : or maybe i 'm clueless , i do n't know . kayla : no , i do n't think you are . i think you need to let your heart be your guide . if it does n't feel right , do n't do it . abigail : yeah . kayla : you know , when i first met steve , he was not the man my parents exactly had in mind for me . but i knew that we had something special , and i trusted those feelings , and i took a chance on us . and maybe we 're not spending a lifetime together . but we had a lot of wonderful years together . and we have two fabulous kids . abigail : aunt kayla , i 'm so sorry that it did n't last a lifetime though . kayla : yeah , well , you know , it does n't last a lifetime for a lot of couples no matter how much they love each other . look at abe and lexie . can you imagine if he had n't gone up to her in the salem pd all those years ago and tell her how he felt ? what they would have missed out on . abigail : yeah . yeah , you 're right . no matter what happens , i have to tell cameron how i feel about him . kayla : there you go . that 's my girl . abigail : thank you . [ scene_break ] cameron : i do like abigail a lot . i 'd like to get to know her better . abe : ciara already figured that out . [ laughing ] [ cell phone rings ] cameron : oh . excuse me , this is the call i 've been waiting for . abe : oh , all right . cameron : [ clears throat ] hello ? yes , this is cameron davis . thank you . [ clears throat ] of course , i 'm very grateful for the offer . so -- so when would i have to be in chicago to start ? [ scene_break ] gabi : look , you ca n't hurt melanie no matter what happens . andrew : it 's what i just said . gabi : yeah , but i did n't like the way you said it . andrew : [ scoffs ] look , i would be more worried about melanie hurting me , all right ? she tried to escape earlier . gabi : what ? she tried to escape ? what 's going to happen to us if she escapes ? andrew : do n't worry . i took care of it . gabi : okay , but do n't -- do n't hurt her , please . even if she tries to escape , all right ? she 's -- she 's been a really good friend to me . andrew : oh , i get it . look , melanie is just an innocent bystander in this entire situation . i mean , the whole reason that she 's under lock and key right now is that she just happened to have the bad luck of falling in love with chad . and well , what a bummer that chad happened to be the dream guy of her good friend , gabi . and that you would be willing to plot and scheme and do just about anything to steal him away from her . gabi : shut up , andrew . it was n't like that . you do n't know what you 're talking about . andrew : do n't i ? i mean , the whole reason that melanie is not with chad right now is because of me . so the longer that she 's gone , it 's the better for you . right ? so what i suggest is that you stop disrespecting me and take advantage of the golden opportunity that i 've given you . [ scene_break ] brady : [ sniffs ] [ cell phone rings ] brady : yeah . great , great . `` meet me at -- `` [ scene_break ] kate : [ clears throat ] okay , so everything under control ? madison : absolutely . we should be ready to start soon . kate : then why does it look like brady 's not the only one who should have stayed home . madison : i 'm fine . kate : what about brady ? madison : he 's just not feeling very well . kate : again . madison : look , it 's not what you think , okay ? it 's a bug . it 's like a 24-hour thing . kate : madison , come on . when are you going to face the facts ? your boyfriend is on drugs again . [ scene_break ] cameron : that 's great . i accept , i ca n't wait to start . any other details i need to know ? kayla : where are the kids ? abe : oh , they 're playing upstairs . kayla : maybe we should go check up on them , and let them have a moment alone . abe : yeah , come on . let 's go . cameron : okay . thank you again . abigail . i did n't see you . abigail : well , it sounds like congratulations are in order . you accepted a job ? cameron : yes . i 'm so excited . abigail : when do you start ? cameron : immediately . tomorrow . abigail : oh . that 's -- that 's fast . so i guess we should say our good - byes now , right ? [ scene_break ] andrew : so what 's it going to be ? hmm ? are you going to let melanie go or not ? gabi : [ sighs ] fine . keep melanie out of the way for now . and do n't let her get away again . andrew : no worries . gabi : but i do n't want anything to do with what 's happening here . all right ? the only thing that i 'm focused on is getting chad . andrew : as you should . gabi : and promise me you 're going treat melanie well . andrew : look , i gave you my word . all right ? i 'll take good care of melanie . do n't you worry . [ scene_break ] madison : you do n't know what you 're talking about . brady 's fine . can we just concentrate on this meeting ? kate : no , we 're going to deal with the elephant in the room : brady 's drug use . madison : i 'm not having this conversation with you , kate . kate : well , maybe you should because i 've been through it , madison . madison : you have ? kate : yes , i have . my son lucas is a recovering alcoholic . and billie was an addict . madison : i did n't know that . kate : they 're both clean and sober now . but it was a struggle . a lot of hard work . and the tears .

john : he promised he 'd make sure . abigail : you know , when you think about it , he did n't just give us the money . he agreed to make sure jordan never finds out . and ... as much as your dad wants jordan 's forgiveness , wants her to like him again , he did this all anonymously . ben : yeah . abigail : i think that 's a pretty selfless thing to do . jordan : i ca n't believe you 're actually defending rafe . chad : uh , no . i -- i 'm not , i just ... look , he 's a detective . he 's just doing his job like anybody else would . and i did n't do anything wrong , so i have no reason to worry about him , or ... i mean , any other cops , for that matter . gabi : rafe , will has full custody of our daughter . okay , i -- i do n't want to give him any reason not to bring her when he can . rafe : all right . all right , fine . you know , i wo n't say anything . okay , i wo n't . but i still think that the guy -- gabi : i know what you think . i know . but thank you for -- for doing this my way . rafe : i just do n't understand what does he have going on that is so damn imp -- gabi : please . i do n't want to waste all of our time talking about will . i want to know about you . i want to know about my brother . what -- what 's going on ? jordan : oh , it 's , uh , it 's abigail . she said she wants to meet at the club . she has news about our project . chad : okay . well , i 'll take you over . you take a shower . i have a call to make . jordan : sounds like a plan . chad : anything new on hernandez ? well , try harder . i want to know if that bastard 's still trying to dig up dirt on me . abigail : i 'm not gon na be lying to jordan . the donor is anonymous . ben : and if she asks , you know who it is ? abigail : then i 'll say that nobody knows , because that 's the definition of anonymous . all right , look . i understand , okay , but i do n't -- i do n't think you get how high jordan is on this project . she 's not gon na ask any questions once we have the money . and we have that money because of you . ben : we have it because of my father . chad : so i 'm actually gon na let you go in first . i do n't want to rile up your brother . jordan : oh , see , i do n't think that 's it . i think you 're afraid he 's onto your secret . chad : yeah , my secret , what ? jordan : that you 're really a nice guy . chad : oh , okay . well , do me a favor and do n't let that get around . gabi : okay , so chad and jordan ? rafe : mm . gabi : rafe , i 'm -- i 'm sorry . rafe : i should n't have said anything , you were upset and now you 're even more upset . gabi : no , i 'm not -- i 'm not upset . i mean , i was -- i 'm a little bit upset because i -- i -- i liked jordan , you and jordan . and -- and chad ? i just hope that -- that jordan is careful . rafe : i know . i thought that chad had changed because he spent all that time with stefano , but ... maybe it was in him the whole time .

[ gasps ] oh , my god ! gwen : can you believe this ? rebecca : she has been keeping quite a secret . rebecca : oh , i am shocked ! gwen : i mean , of all the dirt that j.t . has on people , i never would have dreamed that this would be her secret . rebecca : i mean , who would have thought that muffy harrington would even work , let alone run a call girl service ! gwen : i know , i know . this is actually really outrageous . rebecca : you know , i am really mad at her that she did not include me in her stable . i mean , i know more about pleasuring a man than all those amateurs put together . gwen : ok , would you look at these prices she 's charging ? rebecca : oh , that is nothing compared to what i used to charge your father . gwen : what are you talking about ? you were married . rebecca : yeah , so ? gwen : ok , stop , just stop . we 're looking for theresa 's secret . not -- we should n't be looking at muffy 's in - home delivery menu . rebecca : honey , you 're right , you 're right . we 're going to take down tacosita once and for all . ethan : listen to me . listen to me . i do n't care how dark and deep and awful this secret is , theresa , it ca n't be that bad to make me ever lose you . theresa : you know , you say that now . ethan : theresa , i 'm serious , i mean it . i love you so much , with my heart and with my soul . you 're never going to lose me , i 'm sorry . theresa : but chad and whitney -- ethan : chad and whitney 's situation has nothing to do with us . theresa : well , i think it does . ethan : it ca n't . theresa : how do you know ? ethan : because i know you . i know that your secret could never be anything like chad 's betrayal of whitney was . you could n't keep a secret like that from me . theresa : you know , there are -- are all kinds of betrayals . ethan : look , i know that you were intimate with jared , ok ? you had no choice . i do n't look at that as a betrayal , ok ? theresa : well , i 'm glad you do n't . ethan : i 'm glad you 're glad , but i do n't think you 're hearing me . you 're not understanding me . listen , chad 's betrayal of whitney was a lot more than sex with another person . he betrayed her trust . he betrayed their love together . that 's the difference between you and chad . you could never keep a secret like that from me . you could never keep a secret from me that would tear at my soul the way chad tore at whitney 's . eve : what are you doing ? blackmailer : i 'm stopping you from having me arrested . eve : but i thought that we agreed that it was the first step towards you getting you some help . blackmailer : do n't you want answers ? do n't you want to know why i am the way i am ? eve : i did n't want to upset you by asking a lot of prying questions when i 've just met you for the first time . blackmailer : [ quietly laughs ] the first time . right . eve : am i missing something ? blackmailer : what would you like to know ? eve : there 's -- there 's so much , i do n't even know where i would start . blackmailer : ask me why i 'm dressed the way i am . eve : all right . why wear men 's clothes and women 's clothes if you 're a man ? is it to conceal your identity ? blackmailer : not really . eve : well , why then ? blackmailer : i 'm dressed the way i am because of my identity . eve : i do n't understand . blackmailer : you and everyone else . eve : well then , tell me ! son , i 'm your mother , tell me . make me understand why you 're dressed like this ! why you 're torturing innocent people ! blackmailer : no one is innocent ! especially you and dear old dad . eve : ok , i 'm going to call your father , julian , and get him over here . and then you can open yourself up to both of us . blackmailer : no ! i want to open up myself to you first . and i doubt dear old dad could take the shock to his system . esmerelda : tabitha , you ca n't sacrifice julian to save endora . tabitha : why not ? esmerelda : because he 's her father . tabitha : so , what 's your point ? lucretia : you 'd let your husband die ? tabitha : julian 's not my husband . griselda : significant other ? tabitha : not even that . lucretia : well , he 's too old to be your boy toy .

[ cackling ] esmerelda : forgive me for being blunt , but your attitude is as unattractive as you are . griselda : oh , bite me , beauty queen ! this is how this is going to go . lucretia : oh , we are going to kill both tabitha and the mortal so endora is left an orphan . griselda : that way we wo n't have to worry about anyone coming after us and trying to take her back . lucretia : you 'll thank us later , dear . griselda : afterlife , come in , afterlife . lucretia : make room for daddy . julian : ow , ow ! [ bad witches cackling ] julian : [ coughs ] lucretia : that hurt like heaven . griselda : i ca n't believe a witch as young as endora has such formidable powers . tabitha : i do n't know why you old crones are so surprised . endora is a lenox , after all . julian : daddy owes you one , endora . julian : these beasts will take you away from me over my dead body . esmerelda : i know how we can defeat these would - be witchnappers . tabitha : how ? esmerelda : we 'll use love to overpower them . tabitha : oh really , esmerelda , you know i loathe love . esmerelda : drop the act , tabitha . you 've loved in your day . tabitha : i have not . esmerelda : timmy . you 've loved timmy in each of your many lifetimes . tabitha : oh , well , that was different . esmerelda : and you love endora . tabitha : well , she 's my daughter . esmerelda : look at them together , tabitha . do you really want to risk costing endora her father ? much less lose her to those harridans ? tabitha : you know the answer to that , esmerelda . but using love as a means to an end , i mean , that is a bit extreme , is n't it ? like using nuclear weapons for peace . lucretia : excuse us , ladies , but we do n't have all night . griselda : will you both please stand still so we can give you a proper send- off ? esmerelda : uh - oh ! tabitha : uh - oh is right . esmerelda : the only way we 're going to win this fight is to use the power of love , the love of family . eve : please do n't hurt me . blackmailer : hurt my own mother -- i 'd have to be a monster to do that . eve : i 'm sorry , i 'm sorry , i did n't mean to offend you . it 's just meeting you for the first time is more of a shock than i was expecting . blackmailer : shock -- that 's code for `` i sicken you . `` eve : no , no . blackmailer : then you 'll want to see what i have to show you . eve : please , ca n't we just wait until julian 's here and you can show us both together ? blackmailer : i do n't think dad 's ready for my close - up . but you , mom , you 're a doctor . you 've seen everything . well , almost everything . eve : you 're my son . what else do i need to know ? blackmailer : see for yourself . eve : [ gasps and sobs ] oh , god ! oh , god . theresa : ethan , um , you know , about my secret ... gwen , she 's back in harmony now and , um , well , i 'm just -- i 'm afraid that if she somehow learns what i 'm keeping from you , she 's going to twist things around and she 's going to use it to get back at me for loving you . ethan : theresa , it does n't matter . theresa : well , you might not think so -- ethan : no , no , no -- wait . like i said before , i can forgive you for anything . gwen has nothing to do with that . theresa : yes , she does . ethan : how ? why ? what -- i do n't understand . theresa : because she hates me , ethan . she hates me with a passion , and i 'm afraid that if she finds out what i 'm keeping from you , she 's going to use it to tear us apart . gwen : [ gasps ] oh , my god , there it is . there it is , there 's a file marked `` theresa crane . `` rebecca : we 're minutes from knowing her secret , and then we 're going to use it to ruin her . tabitha : esmerelda , i 'm willing to try anything but love . i 've never used love in all of my lifetimes , so i 'm not about to start now . esmerelda : desperate times call for desperate measures . tabitha : all right , endora , for you . julian , come over here . esmerelda : assume the formation . lucretia : what are they doing ? griselda : i do n't know . esmerelda : think loving thoughts . esmerelda : it 's working ! griselda : i 'm getting a bad feeling about this . lucretia : i am , too .

this is so crazy . why would she do this ? is this because i did n't deliver some stupid letter ? jason : i do n't know . only heather ca n't tell you why she did it . sam : okay . okay . all right . so then it 's true , right ? so say that heather saw me put my son down outside the shack . where on earth did she get another baby to replace him with ? jason : todd manning . todd : what about sam 's baby ? what did i do ? what , i spell the kid 's name wrong in an article or something ? mcbain : sam 's baby did n't have a name . todd : because he died . i think you have to go now . do n't glare at me like that . the kid died of natural causes . even i 'm not powerful enough to make something like that happen . mcbain : yeah , that 's what the article said . turns out , it was n't true . todd : what , he did n't die of natural causes ?

olivia : okay , maybe these , uh , premonitions or visions or whatever you want to call them that i 'm having , maybe it 's not such a bad thing . maybe it 's a blessing . dante : how do you figure ? olivia : okay . i know it 's not , like , an exact science , but maybe i can use this little psychic thing i got going on to figure out heather 's next move before she makes it . luke : i would n't worry . i think heather 's done with me . i 'm sure as hell done with her . i 'm not concerned about it . lulu : okay . well , do me a favor and watch your back anyway . luke : always , baby , always . lulu : so , what have you been up to ? anna told me you followed her to switzerland . luke : is that all she told you ? lulu : well , i could n't get much else out of her . i got the feeling that something big went down . luke : yeah , you could say that . lulu : i also thought it was pretty weird that you two did n't come home together . luke : that was not my decision . lulu : so what happened ? luke : oh . where to start ? lulu : the beginning is usually a good place . luke : yeah , okay , well , i would say that the beginning is when anna decided that people come back from the dead . duke : paget was clever . he knew how to cover his tracks . i did n't leave the witness - protection program , anna -- at least not willingly . anna : go on . duke : my enemies discovered me . so much for protection . they did n't want to kill me . they wanted to keep me alive . anna : where ? duke : i was in a turkish prison . i was in solitary confinement for a while . then they moved somebody else in with me . anna : oh , let me guess -- jonathan paget , right ? duke : sharp as always , anna . anna : yeah . remember that . i thought paget and i were in the same situation , so -- we shared our lives , and -- our struggles . anna : you reciprocated stories . duke : i did n't know that paget was a plant . he was working for julian jerome . his job was to learn everything there was to learn about me . anna : enough to convince us he was you . duke : yes . anna : and what would jerome get out of that ? duke : do you even have to ask ? he knew the only thing worse than death for me was to know that you were in the arms of an imposter . and he was right . anna : i wanted so much -- for it to be you . duke : me ! it is me ! why do n't you recognize me ? kiss me . anna , just kiss me . one kiss , and you 'll know exactly who i am . we put a week 's worth of bad odors in a home . anna : you 're not touching me , let alone kissing me , whoever the hell you are . duke : there 's got to be something i can do to prove it to you , anna . there has to be something . anna : no , i do n't know . i ca n't think of anything . i got to give you credit , though . you 've gone to a great deal of trouble to sell your cover . duke : i do n't blame you for feeling this way . anna : that 's generous . duke : i felt this way in my cell so often . that life i was living , it was no existence . i was living in hell . but anytime i ever needed any hope , i -- i only had to picture your face . and i got the will to live from your gorgeous brown eyes -- anna : shut up ! stop it ! duke : and then i 'd think that i 'd do anything i possibly could to get back here to you and to robin . she 's got to be a beautiful young woman . i -- which career did she pick that she dreamt of ? she must be a dancer or a detective . let me see her . if she sees me , she 'll recognize me immediately , anna . anna : you ca n't see her . she 's -- she 's dead . just like you are . like duke is dead . luke : well , there was a young woman there who had been transferred from ferncliff who looked enough like robin at a glance that she could have been mistaken for her . lulu : i mean , you do n't think it 's possible that heather made an honest mistake ? luke : come on , baby . heather does n't do anything honestly , even make a mistake . no , i think she saw a chance to torture anna , and she jumped at it . lulu : mm . i ca n't imagine how brutal that must have been . luke : it was . false hope -- and desperation and grief and then finally the despair of knowing that robin really was gone . lulu : it 's like having a child taken away from its mother all over again . luke : yeah . sam : you remember how i told you i thought something was going on with todd ? his interest in the baby , him showing up at the funeral -- it was just all so weird . jason : well , now we know why . sam : i do n't , jason . i do n't get how todd is involved in this at all . and he was in the woods that night , too ? doing what ? jason : delivering a baby . todd : have you been smoking marijuana ? 'cause that 's illegal . sam 's kid is dead . mcbain : the night of the storm , sam 's baby was n't the only one born out on route 59 . you delivered the other one . sam : wait . i met this person , téa -- in the hospital after she had her little boy . i almost held him , but todd interrupted us . the baby was mine . i 'm sorry , jason . i 'm sorry . i know i 'm getting ahead of you . jason : it 's okay , it 's okay . it 's okay . téa was in labor , and todd was trying to get her to the hospital , but he could n't 'cause the road was closed , but the baby was n't gon na wait , so todd set them up at a bus stop not far from where you collapsed . sam : téa had her baby at a bus stop ? jason : when the baby was born -- they knew right away something was wrong . mcbain : you took that child , and you went looking for help . you saw a light , and it led you to a deserted shed . right so far ? todd : mm - hmm . so what ? jason : when téa got to the hospital , she told steve webber that a good samaritan saved her son . sam : and that good samaritan was heather webber . mcbain : that was sam 's baby . todd : that 's an interesting story . mcbain : you denying it ? todd : no . heather : you should see the way he looks up at me and smiles . it 's as if i hung the moon . the relationship i never got to have with you . steve : maybe because you sold me to other parents . heather : mistakes were made . i readily admit that . steve : then let 's stop this before you make another one . heather : i want to show you what a good mother i could be . steve : with someone else 's child ? heather : how loving and nurturing . and we could be one happy family . steve : we 're not family ! us and that baby -- we 're not related to him , mother . heather : do n't you think adopted children deserve love , too ? steve : you did n't adopt him . you kidnapped him . heather : those are harsh words . steve : can you think of another one ? heather : i rescued him . he 's gon na be so much better off with me than his birth mother . besides , she has other kids -- a kid -- a daughter . téa delgado will be just fine . steve : the baby is n't téa 's . the child you took was sam morgan 's . and all this time , she thought her son was dead . heather : she did n't deserve him then , and she does n't deserve him now . steve : you have to give him back . heather : never . sam : forget giving my child to someone else . heather made me think that my son was dead . jason : heather 's gon na answer for everything that she did to you . i 'm gon na make sure of that . sam : i 've been too scared to say it out loud . [ sniffles ] he 's not dead . jason : no . sam : he 's alive , jason . how did you do this ? when did you find out ? jason : do you remember when we were in the hospital and you told me about the story about how things -- would have played out if your baby had n't died ? sam : yes , of course . it 's all i could think about . jason : yeah , i could n't -- i could n't stand listening to you blame yourself . sam : i remember then you asked patrick to do the autopsy report . jason : right . and it confirmed -- after looking at it , it confirmed a baby died from respiratory failure , and -- and i just -- i just kept studying the facts . sam : w - why , jason ? what were you looking for ? jason : i do n't know . i mean , anything . and your son was taken from you . and i wanted you to get him back . and if there was even a chance -- to make this right again -- i was gon na find it . the baby who died -- blood type did n't match yours or franco 's . sam : well , that just could have been an overlook . i mean , there 's mistakes made all the time . jason : i know , but there was a lot of things that did n't add up . the baby who died had hemophilia . and it never showed up on any of your baby 's prenatal scans . and then when your baby was born , you said he was crying loudly , and he was strong , and how could he if his lungs had n't been developed ? sam : i know , i know . i did n't know , jason . i thought he was sick . i just -- i thought something was wrong . jason : sam , nothing -- nothing was wrong -- with your baby . it was another child who died . sam : why did n't you say anything ? jason : i just -- you know , i did n't want to get your hopes until i was sure . sam : you 're sure now ? jason : i had a dna test run on téa delgado 's son . sam : she just let you do it ? jason : she did n't know about it . sam : how 'd you get the sample ? jason : john mcbain did it . todd : yes , i helped téa deliver the baby . yes , the baby was sick . yes , i did try and get someone to help . todd : someone being heather webber . todd : yes . mcbain : did it ever occur to you to tell someone that she was the nutjob you met in the woods ? ! todd : no , she did n't want me to . look , this is , like i said , a very interesting story . but if you think there was some kind of a baby switch , then you 're crazier than heather webber . mcbain : stop talking ! i have the proof . steve : that baby belongs with sam . heather : why ? steve : is that an actual question ? ! heather : yes . why does she deserve a reunion with her son and i 'm denied a reunion with mine ? steve : mother , mother -- heather : no , really . obviously , you 've been brainwashed against me . there 's no hope of a reconciliation . fine . the little one and i will soldier on alone . steve : wait , wait , wait , wait ! i do n't want you to disappear -- out of my life -- again . and you 're right . just seeing you -- holding what i thought was a baby -- maybe we can make this work . heather : you really mean that ? steve : sam 's already buried a baby . she 's mourned the loss . she 's moved on . and for us -- maybe this is our answer . heather : our future . steve : our chance at the family that we never had . [ stammers ] please , just take me to him . dante : you know , mom , maybe this is n't the best -- olivia : shh ! shh ! dante : i do n't want you pushing yourself . olivia : would you just zip it ? i 'm trying to concentrate . okay , okay . there it is . there it is . dante : what ? you actually see something ? is it heather ? olivia : it 's you and lulu . lulu : well , i am glad that you were there for anna , facing that kind of disappointment . luke : yeah , she needed a friend . lulu : is that what you are to her -- a friend ? luke : we got closer . a lot closer . and then , suddenly , we could n't have been further apart . lulu : guess that explains why you two came home separately . if you do n't want to talk about it , we do n't have to -- luke : no , it 's no problem . i told her that i had lied to robert . lulu : dad , i 'm proud of you . luke : i 'm glad somebody is . lulu : was it that bad ? luke : anna did n't exactly take it well . no . anna : i lost her in an explosion . duke : my god . anna : like the one that killed duke . or at least i thought killed him . duke : anna , please , why do n't you talk to me ? anna : no , i wo n't ! 'cause he came back -- as jonathan paget . oh , that 's must be why i thought it was possible -- duke : you thought what was possible ? anna : that robin -- that -- i believed she was alive . i thought she was in some swiss clinic , and -- i went there to see if -- she was there . duke : and she was n't ? anna : no . duke : i 'm sorry , anna . i 'm so sorry for all of it . i loved robin as if she was my own . you know that . anna : no , i do n't know that ! i do n't know anything about you ! turn around . duke : what is this ?

dante : yeah . yeah , i 'll take any lead i can get . olivia : okay . you be careful , okay ? dante : that goes double for you . olivia : okay . and keep me in the loop . dante : okay . i will . and , dante -- dante : huh ? olivia : one thing i know for sure -- you and lulu are gon na make the most adorable parents ! luke : yes , anna was really pissed that i had lied . lulu : do n't tell me that surprises you . luke : well , i think , in the end , she understood why . lulu : so she 's okay with it ? luke : oh , i would n't go that far . she insisted i track down robert and come clean with him . lulu : so that 's where you were . uh -- um -- did you find him ? luke : yeah , i found him . he and holly were still trying to track down ethan . i told him the whole story . lulu : bet that went over well . luke : blows were exchanged . it could have gotten a lot worse if holly had n't stopped it from turning into full - out warfare . lulu : yeah , but she lied to robert , too , so was n't he upset with her ? luke : well , that 's between them to figure out . lulu : so , i , um -- i do n't suppose you saw ethan while you were there . luke : oh , sure . i sure did . i found him in budapest . he 's still tapping in to my swiss bank accounts . lulu : how is he ? luke : he 's having the time of his life playing the cat - and - mouse game . lulu : do you think he could come home ? because , i mean , helena must know by now that he 's your son . luke : i 'm sure she does . lulu : so if she has n't done anything already , then that would mean that he 's safe . well , i 'm sure she 's off to other games at the moment , but -- lulu : i miss him . luke : so do i . so tell me about anna . lulu : well , she 's crazy busy at the pcpd . i mean , we do n't talk about anything too personal . luke : no , that 's for me to do . good to see you . lulu : good to see you . luke : i love you . lulu : um , dad -- luke : yeah ? lulu : you knew that this whole ethan / robert thing was gon na blow up in your face , but for what it 's worth , i hope -- that anna forgives you and you two are able to move forward . luke : so do i , baby . so do i . anna : that 's not possible . duke : anything 's possible , anna . did n't we say that so many times ? i remember everything . i remember every toast . i remember every kiss . i remember every tear that you shed every time i did something to upset you . you got to remember , too . to you . anna : to us . duke : yeah . i like the sound of that . to us . why do n't you listen to me ? anna : because they 're all lies ! that 's why ! they 're lies ! every single secret , i can just tear apart ! this thing in l'orleans is the last betrayal , duke . i 'm not standing for any more of them . none of them . do you understand ? oh , i just do n't know you anymore . just do n't know you anymore ! duke : anna , those memories sustained me . those memories gave me hope . they gave me courage to fight my way back so that i could come back here and be with you . anna : do n't do this , please . duke : because i missed you , anna . i missed my life . i missed my wife . and i fought . and i escaped . and here i am . i 'm back for you , anna . heather : you have no idea how happy you 've made me . the three of us , a family ?

jason : it 's -- it 's the proof right there . your son is alive . sam : i do n't even know what to say . i mean , the fact that you did this for me , i just -- jason : all that matters is that your baby 's out there . sam : i need to see him , jason . i need to see him . i need to hold him . jason : sam , sam , sam . where are you going ? sam : where do you think i 'm going ? i 'm going to llanview to téa delgado 's house . jason : you ca n't . sam : why not ? jason : because things are complicated right now . sam : i understand that . i 'm not gon na go and just snatch the baby . jason : your baby 's not at tea 's house . sam : what ?

heather : relax . he 's safe . steve : safe with whom ? did you leave him alone ? heather : well , i did think it would be better for us to have our discussion uninterrupted . he 's got a wonderful temperament . he 's so sweet and calm -- steve : we do n't have time to catch up . there is a child 's life in danger . heather : not now . not at this time . steve : what does that mean ? heather : it means , that if anything happens to me , no one will ever see that baby again . sam : where 's my baby ? i mean , is he okay ? what did heather do to him ? jason : listen , i 'm gon na tell you everything . i just need to tell you in order for it to make any sense . sam : okay . all right , go . jason : heather was in the woods the night of the storm , the night -- the night you gave birth . sam : okay , what was she doing out there ? jason : she was burying anthony zacchara 's body . sam : okay , jason , i know i passed out when i got into that shack , but i do n't think i saw anyone . i never saw heather , and i was alone . jason : she must have seen you . sam : what ? this is so crazy . why would she do this ? is this because i did n't deliver some stupid letter ? jason : i do n't know . only heather ca n't tell you why she did it . sam : okay . okay . all right . so then it 's true , right ? so say that heather saw me put my son down outside the shack . where on earth did she get another baby to replace him with ? jason : todd manning . todd : what about sam 's baby ? what did i do ? what , i spell the kid 's name wrong in an article or something ? mcbain : sam 's baby did n't have a name . todd : because he died . i think you have to go now . do n't glare at me like that . the kid died of natural causes . even i 'm not powerful enough to make something like that happen . mcbain : yeah , that 's what the article said . turns out , it was n't true . todd : what , he did n't die of natural causes ? mcbain : he did n't die at all . but you knew that already . olivia : so i assume you got an apb ? dante : yeah , ma . okay ? roads , bus depots , train stations , airports . got alerts out to every pediatrician and hospital in the area . olivia : all right . so if everyone 's looking for her , eventually , she 's gon na surface . dante : yeah , just hope when she does , that baby 's okay . olivia : honey , you look so exhausted . dante : i 'm not the one who was here all night . mcbain at least got anna to go home and take a break . it just sucks sitting here and waiting around . olivia : maybe i can help . dante : how ? olivia : okay , maybe these , uh , premonitions or visions or whatever you want to call them that i 'm having , maybe it 's not such a bad thing . maybe it 's a blessing . dante : how do you figure ? olivia : okay . i know it 's not , like , an exact science , but maybe i can use this little psychic thing i got going on to figure out heather 's next move before she makes it . luke : i would n't worry . i think heather 's done with me . i 'm sure as hell done with her . i 'm not concerned about it . lulu : okay . well , do me a favor and watch your back anyway . luke : always , baby , always . lulu : so , what have you been up to ? anna told me you followed her to switzerland . luke : is that all she told you ? lulu : well , i could n't get much else out of her . i got the feeling that something big went down . luke : yeah , you could say that . lulu : i also thought it was pretty weird that you two did n't come home together . luke : that was not my decision . lulu : so what happened ? luke : oh . where to start ? lulu : the beginning is usually a good place . luke : yeah , okay , well , i would say that the beginning is when anna decided that people come back from the dead . duke : paget was clever . he knew how to cover his tracks . i did n't leave the witness - protection program , anna -- at least not willingly . anna : go on . duke : my enemies discovered me . so much for protection . they did n't want to kill me . they wanted to keep me alive . anna : where ? duke : i was in a turkish prison . i was in solitary confinement for a while . then they moved somebody else in with me . anna : oh , let me guess -- jonathan paget , right ? duke : sharp as always , anna . anna : yeah . remember that . i thought paget and i were in the same situation , so -- we shared our lives , and -- our struggles . anna : you reciprocated stories . duke : i did n't know that paget was a plant . he was working for julian jerome . his job was to learn everything there was to learn about me . anna : enough to convince us he was you . duke : yes . anna : and what would jerome get out of that ? duke : do you even have to ask ? he knew the only thing worse than death for me was to know that you were in the arms of an imposter . and he was right . anna : i wanted so much -- for it to be you . duke : me ! it is me ! why do n't you recognize me ? kiss me . anna , just kiss me . one kiss , and you 'll know exactly who i am . we put a week 's worth of bad odors in a home . anna : you 're not touching me , let alone kissing me , whoever the hell you are . duke : there 's got to be something i can do to prove it to you , anna . there has to be something . anna : no , i do n't know . i ca n't think of anything . i got to give you credit , though . you 've gone to a great deal of trouble to sell your cover . duke : i do n't blame you for feeling this way . anna : that 's generous . duke : i felt this way in my cell so often . that life i was living , it was no existence . i was living in hell . but anytime i ever needed any hope , i -- i only had to picture your face . and i got the will to live from your gorgeous brown eyes -- anna : shut up ! stop it ! duke : and then i 'd think that i 'd do anything i possibly could to get back here to you and to robin . she 's got to be a beautiful young woman . i -- which career did she pick that she dreamt of ? she must be a dancer or a detective . let me see her . if she sees me , she 'll recognize me immediately , anna . anna : you ca n't see her . she 's -- she 's dead . just like you are . like duke is dead . luke : well , there was a young woman there who had been transferred from ferncliff who looked enough like robin at a glance that she could have been mistaken for her . lulu : i mean , you do n't think it 's possible that heather made an honest mistake ? luke : come on , baby . heather does n't do anything honestly , even make a mistake . no , i think she saw a chance to torture anna , and she jumped at it . lulu : mm . i ca n't imagine how brutal that must have been . luke : it was . false hope -- and desperation and grief and then finally the despair of knowing that robin really was gone . lulu : it 's like having a child taken away from its mother all over again . luke : yeah . sam : you remember how i told you i thought something was going on with todd ? his interest in the baby , him showing up at the funeral -- it was just all so weird . jason : well , now we know why . sam : i do n't , jason . i do n't get how todd is involved in this at all . and he was in the woods that night , too ? doing what ? jason : delivering a baby . todd : have you been smoking marijuana ? 'cause that 's illegal . sam 's kid is dead . mcbain : the night of the storm , sam 's baby was n't the only one born out on route 59 . you delivered the other one . sam : wait . i met this person , téa -- in the hospital after she had her little boy . i almost held him , but todd interrupted us . the baby was mine . i 'm sorry , jason . i 'm sorry . i know i 'm getting ahead of you . jason : it 's okay , it 's okay . it 's okay . téa was in labor , and todd was trying to get her to the hospital , but he could n't 'cause the road was closed , but the baby was n't gon na wait , so todd set them up at a bus stop not far from where you collapsed . sam : téa had her baby at a bus stop ? jason : when the baby was born -- they knew right away something was wrong . mcbain : you took that child , and you went looking for help . you saw a light , and it led you to a deserted shed . right so far ? todd : mm - hmm . so what ? jason : when téa got to the hospital , she told steve webber that a good samaritan saved her son . sam : and that good samaritan was heather webber . mcbain : that was sam 's baby . todd : that 's an interesting story . mcbain : you denying it ? todd : no . heather : you should see the way he looks up at me and smiles . it 's as if i hung the moon . the relationship i never got to have with you . steve : maybe because you sold me to other parents . heather : mistakes were made . i readily admit that . steve : then let 's stop this before you make another one . heather : i want to show you what a good mother i could be . steve : with someone else 's child ? heather : how loving and nurturing . and we could be one happy family . steve : we 're not family ! us and that baby -- we 're not related to him , mother . heather : do n't you think adopted children deserve love , too ? steve : you did n't adopt him . you kidnapped him . heather : those are harsh words . steve : can you think of another one ? heather : i rescued him . he 's gon na be so much better off with me than his birth mother . besides , she has other kids -- a kid -- a daughter . téa delgado will be just fine . steve : the baby is n't téa 's . the child you took was sam morgan 's . and all this time , she thought her son was dead . heather : she did n't deserve him then , and she does n't deserve him now . steve : you have to give him back . heather : never . sam : forget giving my child to someone else . heather made me think that my son was dead . jason : heather 's gon na answer for everything that she did to you . i 'm gon na make sure of that . sam : i 've been too scared to say it out loud . [ sniffles ] he 's not dead . jason : no . sam : he 's alive , jason . how did you do this ? when did you find out ? jason : do you remember when we were in the hospital and you told me about the story about how things -- would have played out if your baby had n't died ? sam : yes , of course . it 's all i could think about . jason : yeah , i could n't -- i could n't stand listening to you blame yourself . sam : i remember then you asked patrick to do the autopsy report . jason : right . and it confirmed -- after looking at it , it confirmed a baby died from respiratory failure , and -- and i just -- i just kept studying the facts . sam : w - why , jason ? what were you looking for ? jason : i do n't know . i mean , anything . and your son was taken from you . and i wanted you to get him back . and if there was even a chance -- to make this right again -- i was gon na find it . the baby who died -- blood type did n't match yours or franco 's . sam : well , that just could have been an overlook . i mean , there 's mistakes made all the time . jason : i know , but there was a lot of things that did n't add up . the baby who died had hemophilia . and it never showed up on any of your baby 's prenatal scans . and then when your baby was born , you said he was crying loudly , and he was strong , and how could he if his lungs had n't been developed ? sam : i know , i know . i did n't know , jason . i thought he was sick . i just -- i thought something was wrong . jason : sam , nothing -- nothing was wrong -- with your baby . it was another child who died . sam : why did n't you say anything ? jason : i just -- you know , i did n't want to get your hopes until i was sure . sam : you 're sure now ? jason : i had a dna test run on téa delgado 's son . sam : she just let you do it ? jason : she did n't know about it . sam : how 'd you get the sample ? jason : john mcbain did it . todd : yes , i helped téa deliver the baby . yes , the baby was sick . yes , i did try and get someone to help . todd : someone being heather webber . todd : yes . mcbain : did it ever occur to you to tell someone that she was the nutjob you met in the woods ? ! todd : no , she did n't want me to . look , this is , like i said , a very interesting story . but if you think there was some kind of a baby switch , then you 're crazier than heather webber . mcbain : stop talking ! i have the proof . steve : that baby belongs with sam . heather : why ? steve : is that an actual question ? ! heather : yes . why does she deserve a reunion with her son and i 'm denied a reunion with mine ? steve : mother , mother -- heather : no , really . obviously , you 've been brainwashed against me . there 's no hope of a reconciliation . fine . the little one and i will soldier on alone . steve : wait , wait , wait , wait ! i do n't want you to disappear -- out of my life -- again . and you 're right . just seeing you -- holding what i thought was a baby -- maybe we can make this work . heather : you really mean that ? steve : sam 's already buried a baby . she 's mourned the loss . she 's moved on . and for us -- maybe this is our answer . heather : our future . steve : our chance at the family that we never had . [ stammers ] please , just take me to him . dante : you know , mom , maybe this is n't the best -- olivia : shh ! shh ! dante : i do n't want you pushing yourself . olivia : would you just zip it ? i 'm trying to concentrate . okay , okay . there it is . there it is . dante : what ? you actually see something ? is it heather ? olivia : it 's you and lulu . lulu : well , i am glad that you were there for anna , facing that kind of disappointment . luke : yeah , she needed a friend . lulu : is that what you are to her -- a friend ? luke : we got closer . a lot closer . and then , suddenly , we could n't have been further apart . lulu : guess that explains why you two came home separately . if you do n't want to talk about it , we do n't have to -- luke : no , it 's no problem . i told her that i had lied to robert . lulu : dad , i 'm proud of you . luke : i 'm glad somebody is . lulu : was it that bad ? luke : anna did n't exactly take it well . no . anna : i lost her in an explosion . duke : my god . anna : like the one that killed duke . or at least i thought killed him . duke : anna , please , why do n't you talk to me ? anna : no , i wo n't ! 'cause he came back -- as jonathan paget . oh , that 's must be why i thought it was possible -- duke : you thought what was possible ? anna : that robin -- that -- i believed she was alive . i thought she was in some swiss clinic , and -- i went there to see if -- she was there . duke : and she was n't ? anna : no . duke : i 'm sorry , anna . i 'm so sorry for all of it . i loved robin as if she was my own . you know that . anna : no , i do n't know that ! i do n't know anything about you ! turn around . duke : what is this ?

olivia : one thing i know for sure -- you and lulu are gon na make the most adorable parents ! luke : yes , anna was really pissed that i had lied . lulu : do n't tell me that surprises you . luke : well , i think , in the end , she understood why . lulu : so she 's okay with it ? luke : oh , i would n't go that far . she insisted i track down robert and come clean with him . lulu : so that 's where you were . uh -- um -- did you find him ? luke : yeah , i found him . he and holly were still trying to track down ethan . i told him the whole story . lulu : bet that went over well . luke : blows were exchanged . it could have gotten a lot worse if holly had n't stopped it from turning into full - out warfare . lulu : yeah , but she lied to robert , too , so was n't he upset with her ? luke : well , that 's between them to figure out . lulu : so , i , um -- i do n't suppose you saw ethan while you were there . luke : oh , sure . i sure did . i found him in budapest . he 's still tapping in to my swiss bank accounts . lulu : how is he ? luke : he 's having the time of his life playing the cat - and - mouse game . lulu : do you think he could come home ? because , i mean , helena must know by now that he 's your son . luke : i 'm sure she does . lulu : so if she has n't done anything already , then that would mean that he 's safe . well , i 'm sure she 's off to other games at the moment , but -- lulu : i miss him . luke : so do i . so tell me about anna . lulu : well , she 's crazy busy at the pcpd . i mean , we do n't talk about anything too personal . luke : no , that 's for me to do . good to see you . lulu : good to see you . luke : i love you . lulu : um , dad -- luke : yeah ? lulu : you knew that this whole ethan / robert thing was gon na blow up in your face , but for what it 's worth , i hope -- that anna forgives you and you two are able to move forward . luke : so do i , baby . so do i . anna : that 's not possible . duke : anything 's possible , anna . did n't we say that so many times ? i remember everything . i remember every toast . i remember every kiss . i remember every tear that you shed every time i did something to upset you . you got to remember , too . to you . anna : to us . duke : yeah . i like the sound of that . to us . why do n't you listen to me ?

kevin : how could you show your face here after what you did ? chelsea : kevin , please ... nick is only here -- kevin : you were relentless , tracking her down like she was some kind of animal because you had to make her pay ? she was so scared about what you were gon na do that she killed herself ! you did this , nick ! it 's your fault chloe 's dead ! michael : kevin ! kevin , no ! kevin , stop it ! kevin : why did you come here ? due diligence to make sure she 's really in that coffin ? because she is . esther 's daughter , bella 's mother , the woman i loved is dead because you would n't leave her alone ! nick : kevin , you got this all wrong , all right ? i feel terrible for you . kevin : you have no idea how i feel , and do n't try and convince me that you gave a damn about chloe . she 's exactly where you wanted her . both of you . you did this together ! hilary : here you go . juliet : thank you . hilary : you 're welcome . what 's the matter ? you had such a great attitude about everything earlier . juliet : nothing 's changed . hilary : okay , i hope so . because you have no reason to be having second thoughts . juliet : no , i 'm not . i 'm not . i know you were right , and i 'm okay . it 's just -- now that we 've pulled the trigger ... hilary : juliet . you refused to be a scapegoat , and you fought back . and , right now , your power move is knocking some very selfish people at brash & sassy ! on their trust - fund behinds . juliet : i just hope it works in my favor . hilary : they 're the ones who have something to be nervous about . not you . cane : so , what is the hurry , ms . brand ambassador ? lily : well , my diplomatic duties , of course , and then i have to go home and try and get the nacho stains out of charlie 's lacrosse uniform . cane : hang on a second . wait . you 're leaving me for laundry ? lily : well , this is a workplace , my love . cane : oh , but trust me , work is highly overrated . billy : sexual harassment ? so , juliet lost her job and her mind ? victoria : i need to read the entire document . i do n't understand why juliet would do something like this . billy : why ? because she wants money . victoria : yes , but sexual harassment ? i mean , that 's a reach . billy : well , she must know that wrongful termination would n't stick , so this is her next weapon . victoria : i gave that woman a very nice severance package , and i told her i would give her a glowing recommendation , and this is how she thanks me ? billy : you 're gon na have to fight this , you know . victoria : of course we 're gon na fight this ! i just do n't know who to be more disgusted with -- juliet for this ridiculous act of revenge , or me for hiring her . billy : i just saw her ! i mean , there was no hint of this , no drama whatsoever . she was professional . i mean , she was crushed , but there was no resentment about it . victoria : well , that makes sense , because we now know that she 's a huge liar . unless there 's something to this . billy : oh , yeah , there 's something to this . she wants money . we both know that . victoria : well , i guess she was n't as magnanimous as she wanted you to believe . additional sponsorship reed : doo , doo , doo - doo - doo , doo doo , doo , doo , doo - doo doo , doo , doo - doo - doo , doo doo , doo , doo [ humming ] [ sighs ] oh , hey ! it 's you again .

[ chuckles ] mattie : wow , i 've actually never seen one of those . reed : really ? well , you can have it if you want . mattie : really ? reed : yeah . mattie : thanks . reed : of course . mattie : so , did you write that song ? reed : yeah , it 's actually kind of a work - in - progress type of thing right now . mattie : so , no lyrics yet ? reed : that 's why i 'm out here . i figured something would come . i 've been trying to write something about waiting to drive my little brother and sister home from their class , but the problem is , i ca n't think of anything that rhymes with `` kickboxing. `` mattie : detoxing . reed : yeah . mattie : 'cause that 's so lyrical . [ chuckles ] never mind . reed : it 's cool ! i could probably make it work . mattie : wow , a notebook , like all the famous songwriters . so , music 's obviously your thing ? reed : yeah , it 's my one and only . what 's your thing ? billy : does it mention me , vick ? is that about me ? victoria : it 's not about you ! billy : okay , well , that 's a small plus . so , who , then ? victoria : just let me handle this , okay ? i need to speak to each staff member separately , and i 'll save you for last , and then we can discuss it in detail .

[ sighs ] cane and lily ... lily : hi . cane : hey . victoria : uh , we need to have a chat about a couple of things , okay ? cane : sure . todd : excuse me , if i could have everyone 's attention once again ... i would like to remind you of where we are and why we 're here today . and refrain from words or actions that would dishonor chloe 's memory in any way . not one of us is free from sin . whatever any of you feel chloe 's may have been , i hope -- i hope we can all agree that her little girl bella is blameless . losing her mother is tragic enough . let 's not mar her memory of today with the confusing and frightening behavior of the adults in her life . nick : look , kevin , uh , i 'll take off . i just wanted to tell you how deeply sorry i am for your loss . chelsea : i know you 're in an extreme amount of pain , but i hope that one day , you 'll understand nick and i are not responsible for what happened to her . i wo n't try to convince you today . gloria : i think that 's probably for the best . chelsea : i care about you , kevin , and i know how much you loved chloe . my heart breaks for you . paul : hi . sorry i 'm late . scott : hey . paul : is everything okay ? kevin : [ clears throat ] it is now . it 's time to say goodbye . reed : when you said schoolwork was your thing , you really were n't kidding . mattie : can you leave those alone , please ? sorry , i just do n't want to lose any of my notes . reed : it 's fine . i get it . [ exhales sharply ] those are some really advanced classes . i mean , if somebody 's got their thing , it 's nice to be good at it . but i got to ask -- how do you manage a course load like that ? mattie : by coming to coffee shops to avoid distractions . reed : that 's a good one . i see what you did there . does it happen to leave you with any free time ? mattie : i mean , i 'm not chained to my laptop , but i do like reading . why do you ask ? reed : well , i 'm performing at the open mic night later at the underground ... mattie : is that so ? reed : yeah , and it 's all ages , the open mic , so if you wanted to swing by ... mattie : oh , uh , thanks for the invite , but ... reed : no , i -- do n't worry about it . i totally get it . it 's no big deal . mattie : oh , my gosh . i ca n't believe it 's gotten this late . i have to go . um , good luck with the lyrics . reed : yes , i guess i 'll see you around . do n't forget your dollar . mattie : oh , yeah . thanks . [ both laugh ] bye . reed : see ya . mattie : um , and by the way , `` outfoxing `` rhymes with `` kickboxing , `` and it 's probably more appropriate than `` detoxing . `` reed : wow . yeah . thank you . mattie : anytime . hilary : so , how do you like your lawyer ? juliet : leslie will fight hard for me . thank you for asking her to take my case . hilary : yeah , of course . and she will not be intimidated . she will win this , juliet . which means that you will win . and it will be a victory for all women who have been sexually harassed . you just need to stay strong . juliet : i 'll follow your example . hilary : eh ... juliet : you 've been so great since the moment brash & sassy ! fired me . it makes me feel a little guilty . hilary : about what ? juliet : not trusting you at first . when you told me you knew what happened with cane , i was convinced you were up to something , like you were gon na throw me under the bus , but you have been my only real support . so thanks . hilary : do n't even mention it . i 'm glad that you took my advice to file the suit . now you will get justice for everything that you 've been through . juliet : this seems so personal . did something like this happen to you ? hilary : luckily , no , um , but i 've done a lot of research , and this is how i see it -- cane used his position as your boss to get you to have sex with him in japan in exchange for his support in your career advancements . you gave him what he wanted , and when he got back home , he got you the job at brash & sassy ! juliet : actually , victoria is the one who offered me the job as marketing executive . hilary : with cane 's strong recommendation . he was instrumental in getting you that position . and then , when you were unceremoniously fired for mistakes that were not your own , where was cane ? juliet : urging me to move back to tokyo . hilary : exactly . juliet : hmm . you think i have a strong case ? hilary : strong . and explosive . juliet : mm , i just hope the judge and/or jury sees it that way . they might focus on the extenuating circumstances . hilary : what , you mean the sake ? the fact that you guys were both drunk ? that does n't excuse what cane did . cane was your superior . he was in control of your future in the company . juliet : so , even though he was super - drunk and barely able to walk , he had all of the power ? hilary : exactly . that 's what this disgusting form of bullying is . it 's a power trip with sexual coercion thrown in as a perk . juliet : cane does n't really fit that profile . hilary : no ? because he was so drunk that he could n't walk , but he was n't too blotto for sex a little later , now , was he ? juliet : i just ca n't stop thinking about what this is gon na do to lily . hilary : you barely even know the woman . you just met her recently . but you show more concern for her than her own husband did on his last night , on his high - stakes business trip . lily was the last thing on cane 's mind . victoria : i 'm not sure how your agent ended up with my private number , lily , but i 'm sure he just wanted to cut to the chase and speak to the one person that could grant his request . cane : okay , and what request was that ? lily : i have no idea . i did n't ask for anything . victoria : okay , we 'll go with that . cane : uh , well , it actually happens to be the truth . victoria : so , it was barry who decided we should , and i quote , `` open up the terms of lily 's contract to include other modeling work ? `` lily : what ? i was never consulted about any of that . i 'm sorry that he bothered you . cane : listen , you 've done nothing wrong , okay ? look , it seems to me that ever since we got to l.a. , there 's been nothing but miscommunication , all right ? lily : you know what , i 'm gon na text barry to call us and clarify his part in this . cane : okay . all right . todd : i needed to be here today to ease the pain and loss that comes with grief , a loss complicated by the difficult life that chloe led . each of us is struggling with mixed emotions , trying to reconcile ourselves to a life cut short and one that , given time , might have been turned around . who amongst us has not struggled , asked for compassion , and found it lacking ? what we can do to honor chloe is to look after the people in our lives , to keep an eye out for times when they seem to be challenged , when they 're most in need . then we can give them the help that we all wish chloe had had . love each other despite our differences . that 's the message i hope we can all take from today . it 's what should always guide us . kevin has asked to say a few words . gloria : kevin . you do n't have to do this . kevin : i do , mom . it 's okay . goodbye , chloe . there are people who made up their minds about you . they think they knew you , understood you ... they were wrong . i knew you . i loved you . [ sniffles ] and that 's why i 'm here today . to tell the truth about who you were at your core . the world threw things at you that nobody should have to endure , and you did your best to stand up to all of it . that 's -- that 's what 's important here , that 's what everybody seems to forget . that if your beautiful soul could n't handle it , it was n't your fault . nobody tried harder . [ scoffs ] how do i know all this ? it 's easy . the proof was in front of all of our faces . all you had to do was look at chloe to see all the love in her heart . the unlimited love that she had for her mother ... for delia ... [ exhales sharply ] for bella ... ... and for me . and that love ... that 's what defined chloe . you 're with delia now . you always belonged together . [ sniffles ] and i know that you 're gon na miss bella , but i promise you -- i will take care of her until my very last breath , and she 's gon na miss you , too . but i 'll make sure she knows . she 's gon na understand who you were . [ sniffling ] chelsea : [ sighs ] how do you think it 's going over there ? nick : i do n't know . how do you think it 's going ? chelsea : are you mad at me ? nick : why would i be mad at you ? chelsea : because i made you go with me . nick : chelsea , come on . i made that decision on my own . and i certainly understand why you felt like you needed to be there . chelsea : you tried to warn me . you said that it was gon na be a disaster , and -- oh , boy ! you were right ! nick : it 's just too soon for kevin , you know ? he 's struggling and he 's probably gon na be for a while . it 's a hell of a thing to come back from . we both know that . all right , uh , i should probably go and spend some time with christian . chelsea : yeah , me , too . i actually have to pick connor up . ca n't exploit the kindness of nannies . nick : you know , it 's been a while since we got the boys together . chelsea : yeah , we should do that . sometime soon . it will help make things feel normal again . nick : normal . i dig it . how about later today ? hilary : now , from what i 've read , your case needs to encompass more than just the act of sex . juliet : before that night , cane and i had just started working together . i 'm not sure how much more there could be . hilary : quite a bit , according to what you told me . starting with the way that cane took advantage of you being a woman to land the deal . he used you . you were his sexy subordinate that he could show off to local businessmen . you think if you were a man he would have given you such a prominent role with something so major ? juliet : well , not if his endless competition with billy abbott is any indication . hilary : and then when the deal was brokered , what did you become ? arm candy for a night of bar - hopping and sake bombs ? i know that it may have seemed harmless and mutual at first , but you need to ask yourself this -- were you ever in a position where you could say no to any of it ? juliet : well , actually , no . not really . hilary : not if you wanted cane to endorse you at brash & sassy ! see , everything that we laid out ? that is your whole case . juliet : right . i am standing up for myself . hilary : yes , you are , and do it with pride . that is my best advice . now , for the most crucial part , you can not let anyone intimidate you . lily : i texted barry to call us . cane : all right , listen , before barry called you , lily said to me that all she wants to do is work here . he proposed he could find her other work within the scope of the contract , and she said no 'cause all she wants to do is focus on our family and this job . that 's it . victoria : is that true ? lily : absolutely . i am loyal to you and this company . cane : okay , so , it 's obvious barry went around her to force your hand . victoria : all right . i guess that 's plausible . cane : no , no , no . that is what happened , okay ? victoria : okay , look , i accept your side of the story , and i 'm sorry that i went so ballistic . i 've just been under a lot of stress lately , and i could just see another headache coming my way . lily : no , i get it given the last few weeks . and when barry calls , i will tell him i no longer need his representation . i hope that puts an end to any drama . victoria : thank you . then we can consider this chapter closed . lily : good . i 'm sorry if i caused any problems . cane : hey , you did n't cause any problems , okay ? you didn't . lily : i 'm gon na head home . are you coming with ? cane : yeah , yeah . sure . victoria : cane , actually , i need to go over something with you . cane : all right . i 'm gon na deal with this , and then i 'll be home , all right ? i love you . lily : bye . cane : all right . bye . [ sighs ] well , i 'm glad we got that resolved . okay , what is it you wanted to go over with me ? victoria : this . we 're being sued by juliet . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . billy : hey , man . it 's been a while . how you been ? you getting a little practice in al fresco , huh ? it 's a nice day for it . reed : yeah . it was . billy : reed . hey , come on . reed ! really ? is this the way it 's gon na be with us ? look , i get that you 're still upset about phyllis and me . i understand that . but we used to be able to talk about anything and still be cool . i 'm hoping `` anything `` includes the times -- those rare times -- that you were actually pissed off at me . reed : so , you understand that i would be about that ? billy : of course i do . it 's your house , victoria 's your mother , and you have a right to feel any way you want . reed : thanks , i guess . billy : i got to ask , would you have gotten that mad at me that night if zoey had n't pulled what she did ? reed : i do n't know , probably not , but i do n't even want to waste another second thinking about zoey . it 's so done with her . billy : could it be somebody else has taken her place ? reed : well , there -- there is this one girl that ... i do n't know , i 've only run into her , like , twice , but she 's really interesting , and she 's not stuck up or a suck - up like zoey was . billy : not stuck up or a suck - up . sounds like she 's already inspiring lyrics . reed : i do n't know . i think i actually might have scared her away today . lily : so , your dad and i smoothed everything over with victoria . it 's all fine , but still kind of like being called to the principal 's office , which -- knock on wood -- you have yet to experience . mattie : yeah . i 've heard stories from charlie . lily : [ scoffs ] i 'm sure . so , how was school ? mattie : oh , you know , fine . lily : yeah ? i bet you 're happy school 's out next week , right ? mattie : nice try , mom , but i plan on taking a couple of summer classes . lily : honey , i wish that you would try and have some fun . i love that you love studying and getting good grades , but i think you should go out every once in a while . mattie : i know . um , actually , i was thinking about maybe going to the underground tonight to listen to some live music . would that be okay ? lily : since when do you go to clubs ? mattie : it 's all ages . it 's no big deal . lily : oh ! are you going there to hear someone special ? mattie : no ! of course not . i 'm just trying something new . like you say , i need to take a break or two . lily : okay . is someone meeting you there ? mattie : mom , what 's with the interrogation ? lily : well , i know you do n't want to go to a club alone . i 'm wondering if a boy is meeting you . mattie : this is n't a boy thing . i just want to go out and hang . what 's wrong with that ? lily : nothing ! nothing . have fun `` hanging . `` victoria : yes , my marketing department will follow up . all right , bye - bye . i 'm sorry , that was a retail exec . cane : no , no , no . no problem . so , this lawsuit -- juliet gave you no indication , or ... ? victoria : no . none at all . cane : well , i have one word for you -- settle . victoria : excuse me ? cane : well , what 's the charge , wrongful termination ? victoria : and you do n't think we should fight it ? cane : no , i think you should settle because with things like this , you lose even if you win . i mean , look , the negative publicity -- i mean , you 'd be tried and convicted before you go in the courtroom , so just do whatever it takes and make it go away . victoria : wow ! i mean , i 'm not saying that you 're wrong . i 'm just a little surprised by your defeatist attitude . you 're usually such a fighter . you know , i just saw that in here with you and lily . cane : well , i 'm a pragmatist , you know ? i kind of look at the evidence before i make my decisions , you know , based on the facts . victoria : well , that 's just it . there 's one essential fact that you 're getting wrong . very wrong . todd : i 'd like to thank you all for this opportunity and for being here for each other . please keep the people you care about close . their love is the best thing i know to help you and heal you during life 's most challenging times . kevin , esther , you have each other and bella . so neither of you is truly alone . just as chloe is n't truly gone , as long as she lives on in your hearts . lily : wow ! you 're going all - out tonight just to hang and listen to music . mattie : see ? now i regret telling you anything about my plans . i knew you would be like this . lily : be like what ? i 'm just showing a natural maternal interest in my daughter 's social life . mattie : no , you 're prying . some things are meant to be private , and by `` things , `` i mean my social life . or whatever social life it is . lily : honey , it 's okay if you like a boy . mattie : i do n't like anyone ! i barely even know him . lily : [ gasps ] oh ! so there is someone . come on , give me some details . mattie : there are no details . at last the kind that you want . i 've met this guy at the coffeehouse , we 've had a total of two very brief conversations , and that 's it . there 's nothing more to tell . he does n't even go to my school . lily : oh , that 's right . i forgot about that contract we signed with your school where you ca n't date someone from somewhere else ... mattie : oh , my god ! we are n't dating ! he already thinks i 'm a total nerd anyway . lily : what ? based on what ? mattie : mainly the tragic things that come out of my mouth . he asked me what i was into , and all i could come up with was school . lily : well , i think you should be proud of that . mattie : i am , but ... lily : honey , i think you 're getting this all wrong . maybe he was , you know , impressed by how intelligent you are . i know i am . mattie : yeah , because boys love smart girls . lily : hey . any boy that is intimidated by your intelligence is not worth your time . reed : as soon as i mentioned the open mic , she just packed up and left the park . billy : she did n't say a word ? reed : she said she had to finish some homework , but i know a blow - off when i hear one . billy : yeah , do n't we all . reed : she might as well have just said she had to wash her hair . billy : or there is an incredibly unlikely outside chance that a girl taking a full load of a.p . classes actually does have a lot of homework ... reed : yeah , i mean , there is that , but , uh ... i do n't know , i mean , i think i should get going . billy : hey , listen , real quick before you go . i 'd like you to , uh , give your mom some space , just for a little while . she 's trying to iron out a couple things at work . reed : that sounds serious . is she okay ? billy : your mom is tough . she knows what she 's doing . reed : i wish i did . i have no idea what this girl thinks of me , and no last name or phone number to text and find out . billy : [ chuckles ] reed : one moment , she seems into me and my music , and the next , she up and vanishes , so ... billy : i feel ya . i do . and , listen , if you ever figure out the mystery of the female mind , will you shoot me a text and clue me in ? reed : [ chuckles ] nick : this is nice . perfect time of day . chelsea : perfect time of year . late spring is always my favorite . hey , do you think these little sluggers are ready for their first professional baseball game ? nick : oh , man ! they 're never too young to experience the awesomeness that is baseball . i mean , the smell of the hot dogs , the crowd 's cheering , i mean , eating peanuts and just throwing the shells wherever you want ... that is bliss . chelsea : okay . so that 's your idea of bliss ?

[ sighs ] i was n't gon na let anything get in my way . i was holding on so tight to this fantasy that did n't exist , while the world was crumbling around me and took you with it . you deserved better than that . especially from me . i 'm so sorry , chloe . [ next_on ] michael : he wanted to say a private goodbye to chloe . gloria : the woman is dead ! how long could that possibly take ? juliet : if you 're smart , you 'll be on my side because ever since my first day on the job , cane 's been hoping to get you fired . cane : there 's something you need to know . | cane and lily share a tender moment together in the lab of brash and sassy . victoria and billy discuss the lawsuit against them by juliet . everyone begins to gather for chloe 's memorial service including nick and chelsea . kevin lashes at them for being there . hilary gives juliet helpful advice concerning her lawsuit against brash and sassy on the grounds of `` sexual harassment . `` paul arrives for the memorial service for chloe . kevin tells father todd that it is time to say good - bye to chloe . father todd begins the memorial service . nick and chelsea offer their apologies just before they leave . victoria explains to billy that this lawsuit does n't involve him . reed meets with maddie at the park . she admires his music and they start up a conversation . victoria calls cane and lily into her office to discuss the contract that lily has with brash and sassy and concerning the fact that barry offered her another modeling job . reed invites maddie to the underground for open mic night , but she wo n't say definitely if she 'll attend . billy runs into reed who is still less than friendly because he is seeing phyllis instead of victoria . hilary asks juliet how she likes her lawyer and encourages her to remain strong . kevin speaks a few words at chloe 's memorial service then says a tearful good - bye . chelsea and nick wonder what is going on at the memorial service and make plans for later . lily promises that she will refuse barry 's job offer . after lily leaves , victoria tells cane that they are being sued by juliet . | <s>[INST] kevin : how could you show your face here after what you did ? chelsea : kevin , please ... nick is only here -- kevin : you were relentless , tracking her down like she was some kind of animal because you had to make her pay ? she was so scared about what you were gon na do that she killed herself ! you did this , nick ! it 's your fault chloe 's dead ! michael : kevin ! kevin , no ! kevin , stop it ! kevin : why did you come here ? due diligence to make sure she 's really in that coffin ? because she is . esther 's daughter , bella 's mother , the woman i loved is dead because you would n't leave her alone ! nick : kevin , you got this all wrong , all right ? i feel terrible for you . kevin : you have no idea how i feel , and do n't try and convince me that you gave a damn about chloe . she 's exactly where you wanted her . both of you . you did this together ! hilary : here you go . juliet : thank you . hilary : you 're welcome . what 's the matter ? you had such a great attitude about everything earlier . juliet : nothing 's changed . hilary : okay , i hope so . because you have no reason to be having second thoughts . juliet : no , i 'm not . i 'm not . i know you were right , and i 'm okay . it 's just -- now that we 've pulled the trigger ... hilary : juliet . you refused to be a scapegoat , and you fought back . and , right now , your power move is knocking some very selfish people at brash & sassy ! on their trust - fund behinds . juliet : i just hope it works in my favor . hilary : they 're the ones who have something to be nervous about . not you . cane : so , what is the hurry , ms . brand ambassador ?

lily : well , this is a workplace , my love . cane : oh , but trust me , work is highly overrated . billy : sexual harassment ? so , juliet lost her job and her mind ? victoria : i need to read the entire document . i do n't understand why juliet would do something like this . billy : why ? because she wants money . victoria : yes , but sexual harassment ? i mean , that 's a reach . billy : well , she must know that wrongful termination would n't stick , so this is her next weapon . victoria : i gave that woman a very nice severance package , and i told her i would give her a glowing recommendation , and this is how she thanks me ? billy : you 're gon na have to fight this , you know . victoria : of course we 're gon na fight this ! i just do n't know who to be more disgusted with -- juliet for this ridiculous act of revenge , or me for hiring her . billy : i just saw her ! i mean , there was no hint of this , no drama whatsoever . she was professional . i mean , she was crushed , but there was no resentment about it . victoria : well , that makes sense , because we now know that she 's a huge liar . unless there 's something to this . billy : oh , yeah , there 's something to this . she wants money . we both know that . victoria : well , i guess she was n't as magnanimous as she wanted you to believe . additional sponsorship reed : doo , doo , doo - doo - doo , doo doo , doo , doo , doo - doo doo , doo , doo - doo - doo , doo doo , doo , doo [ humming ] [ sighs ] oh , hey ! it 's you again .

[ exhales sharply ] those are some really advanced classes . i mean , if somebody 's got their thing , it 's nice to be good at it . but i got to ask -- how do you manage a course load like that ? mattie : by coming to coffee shops to avoid distractions . reed : that 's a good one . i see what you did there . does it happen to leave you with any free time ? mattie : i mean , i 'm not chained to my laptop , but i do like reading . why do you ask ? reed : well , i 'm performing at the open mic night later at the underground ... mattie : is that so ? reed : yeah , and it 's all ages , the open mic , so if you wanted to swing by ... mattie : oh , uh , thanks for the invite , but ... reed : no , i -- do n't worry about it . i totally get it . it 's no big deal . mattie : oh , my gosh . i ca n't believe it 's gotten this late . i have to go . um , good luck with the lyrics . reed : yes , i guess i 'll see you around . do n't forget your dollar . mattie : oh , yeah . thanks . [ both laugh ] bye . reed : see ya . mattie : um , and by the way , `` outfoxing `` rhymes with `` kickboxing , `` and it 's probably more appropriate than `` detoxing . `` reed : wow . yeah . thank you . mattie : anytime . hilary : so , how do you like your lawyer ? juliet : leslie will fight hard for me . thank you for asking her to take my case . hilary : yeah , of course . and she will not be intimidated . she will win this , juliet . which means that you will win . and it will be a victory for all women who have been sexually harassed . you just need to stay strong . juliet : i 'll follow your example . hilary : eh ... juliet : you 've been so great since the moment brash & sassy ! fired me . it makes me feel a little guilty . hilary : about what ? juliet : not trusting you at first . when you told me you knew what happened with cane , i was convinced you were up to something , like you were gon na throw me under the bus , but you have been my only real support . so thanks . hilary : do n't even mention it . i 'm glad that you took my advice to file the suit . now you will get justice for everything that you 've been through . juliet : this seems so personal . did something like this happen to you ? hilary : luckily , no , um , but i 've done a lot of research , and this is how i see it -- cane used his position as your boss to get you to have sex with him in japan in exchange for his support in your career advancements . you gave him what he wanted , and when he got back home , he got you the job at brash & sassy ! juliet : actually , victoria is the one who offered me the job as marketing executive . hilary : with cane 's strong recommendation . he was instrumental in getting you that position . and then , when you were unceremoniously fired for mistakes that were not your own , where was cane ? juliet : urging me to move back to tokyo . hilary : exactly . juliet : hmm . you think i have a strong case ? hilary : strong . and explosive . juliet : mm , i just hope the judge and/or jury sees it that way . they might focus on the extenuating circumstances . hilary : what , you mean the sake ? the fact that you guys were both drunk ? that does n't excuse what cane did . cane was your superior . he was in control of your future in the company . juliet : so , even though he was super - drunk and barely able to walk , he had all of the power ? hilary : exactly . that 's what this disgusting form of bullying is . it 's a power trip with sexual coercion thrown in as a perk . juliet : cane does n't really fit that profile . hilary : no ? because he was so drunk that he could n't walk , but he was n't too blotto for sex a little later , now , was he ? juliet : i just ca n't stop thinking about what this is gon na do to lily . hilary : you barely even know the woman . you just met her recently . but you show more concern for her than her own husband did on his last night , on his high - stakes business trip . lily was the last thing on cane 's mind . victoria : i 'm not sure how your agent ended up with my private number , lily , but i 'm sure he just wanted to cut to the chase and speak to the one person that could grant his request . cane : okay , and what request was that ? lily : i have no idea . i did n't ask for anything . victoria : okay , we 'll go with that . cane : uh , well , it actually happens to be the truth . victoria : so , it was barry who decided we should , and i quote , `` open up the terms of lily 's contract to include other modeling work ? `` lily : what ? i was never consulted about any of that . i 'm sorry that he bothered you . cane : listen , you 've done nothing wrong , okay ? look , it seems to me that ever since we got to l.a. , there 's been nothing but miscommunication , all right ? lily : you know what , i 'm gon na text barry to call us and clarify his part in this . cane : okay . all right . todd : i needed to be here today to ease the pain and loss that comes with grief , a loss complicated by the difficult life that chloe led . each of us is struggling with mixed emotions , trying to reconcile ourselves to a life cut short and one that , given time , might have been turned around . who amongst us has not struggled , asked for compassion , and found it lacking ? what we can do to honor chloe is to look after the people in our lives , to keep an eye out for times when they seem to be challenged , when they 're most in need . then we can give them the help that we all wish chloe had had . love each other despite our differences . that 's the message i hope we can all take from today . it 's what should always guide us . kevin has asked to say a few words . gloria : kevin . you do n't have to do this . kevin : i do , mom . it 's okay . goodbye , chloe . there are people who made up their minds about you . they think they knew you , understood you ... they were wrong . i knew you . i loved you . [ sniffles ] and that 's why i 'm here today . to tell the truth about who you were at your core . the world threw things at you that nobody should have to endure , and you did your best to stand up to all of it . that 's -- that 's what 's important here , that 's what everybody seems to forget . that if your beautiful soul could n't handle it , it was n't your fault . nobody tried harder . [ scoffs ] how do i know all this ? it 's easy . the proof was in front of all of our faces . all you had to do was look at chloe to see all the love in her heart . the unlimited love that she had for her mother ... for delia ... [ exhales sharply ] for bella ... ... and for me . and that love ... that 's what defined chloe . you 're with delia now . you always belonged together . [ sniffles ] and i know that you 're gon na miss bella , but i promise you -- i will take care of her until my very last breath , and she 's gon na miss you , too . but i 'll make sure she knows . she 's gon na understand who you were . [ sniffling ] chelsea : [ sighs ] how do you think it 's going over there ? nick : i do n't know . how do you think it 's going ? chelsea : are you mad at me ? nick : why would i be mad at you ? chelsea : because i made you go with me . nick : chelsea , come on . i made that decision on my own . and i certainly understand why you felt like you needed to be there . chelsea : you tried to warn me . you said that it was gon na be a disaster , and -- oh , boy ! you were right ! nick : it 's just too soon for kevin , you know ? he 's struggling and he 's probably gon na be for a while . it 's a hell of a thing to come back from . we both know that . all right , uh , i should probably go and spend some time with christian . chelsea : yeah , me , too . i actually have to pick connor up . ca n't exploit the kindness of nannies . nick : you know , it 's been a while since we got the boys together . chelsea : yeah , we should do that . sometime soon . it will help make things feel normal again . nick : normal . i dig it . how about later today ? hilary : now , from what i 've read , your case needs to encompass more than just the act of sex . juliet : before that night , cane and i had just started working together . i 'm not sure how much more there could be . hilary : quite a bit , according to what you told me . starting with the way that cane took advantage of you being a woman to land the deal . he used you . you were his sexy subordinate that he could show off to local businessmen . you think if you were a man he would have given you such a prominent role with something so major ? juliet : well , not if his endless competition with billy abbott is any indication . hilary : and then when the deal was brokered , what did you become ? arm candy for a night of bar - hopping and sake bombs ? i know that it may have seemed harmless and mutual at first , but you need to ask yourself this -- were you ever in a position where you could say no to any of it ? juliet : well , actually , no . not really . hilary : not if you wanted cane to endorse you at brash & sassy ! see , everything that we laid out ? that is your whole case . juliet : right . i am standing up for myself . hilary : yes , you are , and do it with pride . that is my best advice . now , for the most crucial part , you can not let anyone intimidate you . lily : i texted barry to call us . cane : all right , listen , before barry called you , lily said to me that all she wants to do is work here . he proposed he could find her other work within the scope of the contract , and she said no 'cause all she wants to do is focus on our family and this job . that 's it . victoria : is that true ? lily : absolutely . i am loyal to you and this company . cane : okay , so , it 's obvious barry went around her to force your hand . victoria : all right . i guess that 's plausible . cane : no , no , no . that is what happened , okay ? victoria : okay , look , i accept your side of the story , and i 'm sorry that i went so ballistic . i 've just been under a lot of stress lately , and i could just see another headache coming my way . lily : no , i get it given the last few weeks . and when barry calls , i will tell him i no longer need his representation . i hope that puts an end to any drama . victoria : thank you . then we can consider this chapter closed . lily : good . i 'm sorry if i caused any problems . cane : hey , you did n't cause any problems , okay ? you didn't . lily : i 'm gon na head home . are you coming with ? cane : yeah , yeah . sure . victoria : cane , actually , i need to go over something with you . cane : all right . i 'm gon na deal with this , and then i 'll be home , all right ? i love you . lily : bye . cane : all right . bye . [ sighs ] well , i 'm glad we got that resolved . okay , what is it you wanted to go over with me ? victoria : this . we 're being sued by juliet . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . billy : hey , man . it 's been a while . how you been ? you getting a little practice in al fresco , huh ? it 's a nice day for it . reed : yeah . it was . billy : reed . hey , come on . reed ! really ? is this the way it 's gon na be with us ? look , i get that you 're still upset about phyllis and me . i understand that . but we used to be able to talk about anything and still be cool . i 'm hoping `` anything `` includes the times -- those rare times -- that you were actually pissed off at me . reed : so , you understand that i would be about that ? billy : of course i do . it 's your house , victoria 's your mother , and you have a right to feel any way you want . reed : thanks , i guess . billy : i got to ask , would you have gotten that mad at me that night if zoey had n't pulled what she did ? reed : i do n't know , probably not , but i do n't even want to waste another second thinking about zoey . it 's so done with her . billy : could it be somebody else has taken her place ? reed : well , there -- there is this one girl that ... i do n't know , i 've only run into her , like , twice , but she 's really interesting , and she 's not stuck up or a suck - up like zoey was . billy : not stuck up or a suck - up . sounds like she 's already inspiring lyrics . reed : i do n't know . i think i actually might have scared her away today . lily : so , your dad and i smoothed everything over with victoria . it 's all fine , but still kind of like being called to the principal 's office , which -- knock on wood -- you have yet to experience . mattie : yeah . i 've heard stories from charlie . lily : [ scoffs ] i 'm sure . so , how was school ? mattie : oh , you know , fine . lily : yeah ? i bet you 're happy school 's out next week , right ? mattie : nice try , mom , but i plan on taking a couple of summer classes . lily : honey , i wish that you would try and have some fun . i love that you love studying and getting good grades , but i think you should go out every once in a while . mattie : i know . um , actually , i was thinking about maybe going to the underground tonight to listen to some live music . would that be okay ? lily : since when do you go to clubs ? mattie : it 's all ages . it 's no big deal . lily : oh ! are you going there to hear someone special ? mattie : no ! of course not . i 'm just trying something new . like you say , i need to take a break or two . lily : okay . is someone meeting you there ? mattie : mom , what 's with the interrogation ? lily : well , i know you do n't want to go to a club alone . i 'm wondering if a boy is meeting you . mattie : this is n't a boy thing . i just want to go out and hang . what 's wrong with that ? lily : nothing ! nothing . have fun `` hanging . `` victoria : yes , my marketing department will follow up . all right , bye - bye . i 'm sorry , that was a retail exec . cane : no , no , no . no problem . so , this lawsuit -- juliet gave you no indication , or ... ? victoria : no . none at all . cane : well , i have one word for you -- settle . victoria : excuse me ? cane : well , what 's the charge , wrongful termination ? victoria : and you do n't think we should fight it ? cane : no , i think you should settle because with things like this , you lose even if you win . i mean , look , the negative publicity -- i mean , you 'd be tried and convicted before you go in the courtroom , so just do whatever it takes and make it go away . victoria : wow ! i mean , i 'm not saying that you 're wrong . i 'm just a little surprised by your defeatist attitude . you 're usually such a fighter . you know , i just saw that in here with you and lily . cane : well , i 'm a pragmatist , you know ? i kind of look at the evidence before i make my decisions , you know , based on the facts . victoria : well , that 's just it . there 's one essential fact that you 're getting wrong . very wrong . todd : i 'd like to thank you all for this opportunity and for being here for each other . please keep the people you care about close . their love is the best thing i know to help you and heal you during life 's most challenging times . kevin , esther , you have each other and bella . so neither of you is truly alone . just as chloe is n't truly gone , as long as she lives on in your hearts . lily : wow ! you 're going all - out tonight just to hang and listen to music . mattie : see ? now i regret telling you anything about my plans . i knew you would be like this . lily : be like what ? i 'm just showing a natural maternal interest in my daughter 's social life . mattie : no , you 're prying . some things are meant to be private , and by `` things , `` i mean my social life . or whatever social life it is . lily : honey , it 's okay if you like a boy . mattie : i do n't like anyone ! i barely even know him . lily : [ gasps ] oh ! so there is someone . come on , give me some details . mattie : there are no details . at last the kind that you want . i 've met this guy at the coffeehouse , we 've had a total of two very brief conversations , and that 's it . there 's nothing more to tell . he does n't even go to my school . lily : oh , that 's right . i forgot about that contract we signed with your school where you ca n't date someone from somewhere else ... mattie : oh , my god ! we are n't dating ! he already thinks i 'm a total nerd anyway . lily : what ? based on what ? mattie : mainly the tragic things that come out of my mouth . he asked me what i was into , and all i could come up with was school . lily : well , i think you should be proud of that . mattie : i am , but ... lily : honey , i think you 're getting this all wrong . maybe he was , you know , impressed by how intelligent you are . i know i am . mattie : yeah , because boys love smart girls . lily : hey . any boy that is intimidated by your intelligence is not worth your time . reed : as soon as i mentioned the open mic , she just packed up and left the park . billy : she did n't say a word ? reed : she said she had to finish some homework , but i know a blow - off when i hear one . billy : yeah , do n't we all . reed : she might as well have just said she had to wash her hair . billy : or there is an incredibly unlikely outside chance that a girl taking a full load of a.p . classes actually does have a lot of homework ... reed : yeah , i mean , there is that , but , uh ... i do n't know , i mean , i think i should get going . billy : hey , listen , real quick before you go . i 'd like you to , uh , give your mom some space , just for a little while . she 's trying to iron out a couple things at work . reed : that sounds serious . is she okay ? billy : your mom is tough . she knows what she 's doing . reed : i wish i did . i have no idea what this girl thinks of me , and no last name or phone number to text and find out . billy : [ chuckles ] reed : one moment , she seems into me and my music , and the next , she up and vanishes , so ... billy : i feel ya . i do . and , listen , if you ever figure out the mystery of the female mind , will you shoot me a text and clue me in ?

abby : i have huge news . my dad is gon na give you your company back . chelsea : you 're kidding . jack : wait , why would he do that ? abby : i talked him into it . i laid out all the facts , and i made a strong case on your behalf . jack : why would he be that generous ? why would he give up a fashion line with that kind of earnings potential ? chelsea : well , it 's not earning that much now . jack : well , it will be . abby : uncle jack , my dad can be very kind . jack : oh , right . that 's what victor newman 's known for -- kindness . abby : when he wants to be . chelsea : well , honestly , it does n't matter why . all that matters is victor 's letting me go . it 's done . this is wonderful news . thank you for going to bat for me . abby : you 're very welcome . uncle jack , be happy for her . jack : oh , i - i am . i am . this opens all kinds of opportunities for you . but what are you gon na do with your newfound freedom ? adam : well , you never pull strings unless you get something in return , so why are you here ? what do you want ? victor : [ sighs ] to help you . adam : [ laughs ] you want to help me . because you 're in the business of helping people recently , right ? victor : i have far more powerful friends in this town than you do . i doubt you have any friends at all . adam : no argument there . victor : i 'm friends with some of the top judges . i 'm sure it wo n't be too difficult to arrange bail for you , although this is a rather difficult situation . adam : bail for me . in exchange for ? victor : you stopping the paragon virus . adam : there it is . i see . it 's not that simple . the thing is , um , it ca n't be stopped . victor : uh - huh . ca n't be or wo n't be ? adam : does it matter ? victor : do you know what is at stake here ? adam : yeah , i do . i mean , if i go over everything in my head , nothing . nothing is at stake . i am completely and totally resigned to my fate . victor : for you , son , everything is at stake . sage : he looks scared , nick . nick : he knows we 're here . he can hear us , the way he did before he was born . sage : i love you , christian . do n't be afraid . mommy 's right here . nick : daddy 's here , too , bud . sage : how is he , doctor ? doctor : his vitals are holding steady . so far there have n't been any complications . sage : so -- so he 's getting better ? doctor : well , he is several weeks premature , so he 's fragile . we need to keep his weight up , get him breathing on his own , and then we 'll take it from there . sage : is there anything that we can do to help him get stronger ? doctor : you can see to your own recovery . sage : no , i 'm -- i 'm fine . doctor : mrs. newman , this little guy needs a healthy mom . nick : do n't worry . i 'll see to that . thank you , doctor . sage : thank you . nick : all right , come on . let 's get you back to your room . sage : i 'm not -- no . i 'm not leaving . nick : listen , our son is doing his part to get better . you got to do your part , too . you got to keep your strength up , otherwise how are you gon na help me help him get better ? sage : i 'll be back , my darling christian . i 'll be back , okay ? just remember that your mother is fighting for you with every breath that i have . dylan : so the tracker signal on the missing box of medical supplies just went offline , it went dead . stitch : offline ? dylan : the signal just stopped . stitch : those devices were well - hidden . which makes you wonder if this was ... both : an inside job . dylan : because how could hilary 's kidnappers know about the tracker unless somebody took them off ? lily : are you really just gon na hand over the money without any proof that hilary 's alive ? cane : and no guarantee she 'll be returned safely ? devon : what choice do i have ? lily : devon , come on . devon : lily , i 'm gon na do this . this is only $ 1 million . lily : only ? devon : i 'm not gon na get talked out of handing over this cash , not when it 's the one shot i have of getting my wife back . neil : you know that tracking device ? gwen : yeah . neil : totally deactivated it . what 's going on with her ? gwen : i 'm just -- i 'm worried about her , neil . these supplies will only last a week . and then what ? neil : i do n't know . we ca n't go to the hospital anymore . i mean , the police are all over that one , are n't they ? gwen : what we really need is a doctor for her . neil : gwen , do you understand that i would have had a doctor up here in a new york minute if i thought it was n't too risky , right ? gwen : but what if we 're doing her more harm than good ? how long can we keep doing this ? neil : i do n't know . babe , we 're just gon na have to have faith , okay ? be patient . that 's all . gwen : what about the `` kidnapper `` ? how patient will he be ? stitch : if hilary 's in some kind of comatose state , she 's gon na need more than meds to sustain her , which means we need to find her fast . what 's paul say about the situation ? dylan : the police are in a holding pattern right now . i 'm working my own angle . stitch : and what 's that ? dylan : uh , something devon wants to keep under wraps for now . stitch : something dangerous ? dylan : i 'll be careful . stitch : mac , wait . hey . dylan : what ? stitch : you do n't know who you 're dealing with , how well - armed or unstable they might be . your dad 's the chief of police . pick up the phone and call him ! dylan : i know i should call , but devon wants to do this without the cops . stitch : okay , but i 'm telling you this is -- dylan : look , he 's got his reasons . that 's all i can say right now . stitch : all right , when is this going down ? dylan : it 's tonight . look , i 'll let you know how it plays out , right after i get back from fairview . stitch : how 's sharon doing ? dylan : she sounds good . i think she 's ready to come home . dr. anderson : oh , good evening , sharon . sharon : wow , i ca n't believe i just slept the whole day away . dr. anderson : have you ? have you been upset or uneasy ? sharon : no , i feel wonderful . dr. anderson : no anxiety at all ? sharon : not a bit . i 've never slept so well , but i really conked out . dr. anderson : my guess -- that 's the pregnancy catching up with you . chelsea : what i want to do -- well , what i 've decided i have to do is leave genoa city . abby : why ? why would you do that ? your whole life is here . chelsea : i need a clean break , abby . and my son deserves to grow up someplace where he wo n't be judged for being adam newman 's kid . abby : well , this sucks , but , um , i 'm gon na miss you . and i wish you the best of luck . we both do , do n't we , uncle jack ?

[ chuckles ] abby : oh , i - i wish , but no , there 's no cure . but maybe closure . maybe that would take the edge off . go see him . chelsea : no , adam called . he called me and , um , he made it clear that he -- he wants me to move on . abby : like you 're gon na let him run your life ? chelsea : no , it 's what i want , too , abby . i ca n't stay here . jack : you do n't want to leave things unsaid . abby is right . abby : damn right i am . do you really want adam 's last words ringing in your ear until the end of time ? you are gon na beat yourself up for the rest of your life for -- for not saying what you need to say to adam before you bolted . jack : go to him . see him . talk to him . do n't you need that ? adam : you know , as much as you think that newman enterprises is the reason we all live and breathe , for a guilty man ready to face punishment , your corporation does n't really mean much to me , and neither does bail . victor : ah . oh . [ sighs ] then you 're a bigger fool than i thought you were . adam : it would appear so , would n't it ? victor : you know , i gave chelsea her freedom back . i gave her her company back . adam : when ? victor : today . adam : really ? victor : yeah . in fact , she 's free to , uh , leave town . as we speak , she 's probably packing connor 's things . adam : what are you up to ? why would you do that ? victor : why do you think ? adam : i do n't know . maybe it 's because you have a new grandson to harass ? did you hear about the heroic part that i played in delivering the latest newman heir ? did you hear about that ? victor : it 's amazing . every so often , i catch a glimpse of humanity in you . adam : wonders never cease . victor : yeah . all right . adam : so , that 's it ? you 're leaving so soon ? you 're out of here ? i get it . you know , it 's fine . time is short . you 've got other children that might actually need your help . i 'll just -- i 'll just be here . victor : you know , you 've always wrongfully accused me of neglecting you , for abandoning you . was n't my choice to raise you on a farm in kansas . it was your mother 's choice . it made you angry , did n't it ? gave you a feeling of being abandoned . and now you are willing to abandon your own son . think about what he will feel when he grows up . [ door opens ] [ door closes ] victor : [ sighs ] talk some sense into that boy . anyone can do it , you can . [ door closes ] michael : look , um , since you do n't seem interested in trying to make bail or taking my legal advice , for that matter , i 'm gon na take off . adam : wait a second , okay ? i actually need your help . i 've changed my mind . michael , you got to help me get out of here . i do n't care if it 's just for an hour . just make it happen , okay ? please . cane : all right , listen , if you insist on handing over this money -- devon : i 'm paying the ransom . cane : all right , if you insist on paying it , let me do it . do n't deliver it yourself . lily : no , absolutely not . cane : devon is too emotional about this , and i do n't know if he 's gon na act rationally if the situation becomes heated . devon : you 're probably right about that . cane : so let me do it . devon : this is why i 've discussed with dylan that he 's gon na make the drop . cane : i 'm telling you , using dylan is the wrong call . devon : why is it the wrong call ? he 's ex - military . cane : and it does n't mean he 's street smart . lily : why are you so intent on doing this ? what if something happens to you ? cane : nothing 's gon na happen to me . i know how to take care of myself . lily : no , i think you 're being too emotional about this . dylan is objective . he 'll have a level head about it . cane : it 's your call . all i 'm trying to do is help . that 's it . sharon : oh , it 's so good to see you ! dylan : oh , you look great . sharon : thank you . so do you . dylan : so , you all packed , ready to come home ? sharon : um , you know , dylan , i 'm afraid not . dylan : what -- what happened ? when we talked on the phone -- sharon : i know . you know what i think ? it was , um -- i was getting ahead of myself a little bit , telling you to come here and pick me up to take me home , because the doctor -- dr . anderson -- helped me see that it 's really too soon for me to check out of here . dylan : wow , that 's disappointing . sharon : yeah , i know . i want to be with you and faith . but i got to agree with the doctor on this one . i 'm really making progress here . dylan : i can tell . sharon : dr. anderson is wonderful . she has me on this new , safe drug therapy , and it 's really working . dylan : well , it is good seeing you so happy . sharon : you make me happy . you and your undying love for me . and i know that i 'll be home with you soon . dylan : i 'm gon na hold you to that . i 'm gon na get all my work done so i can be at your beck and call when you come home , okay ? sharon : i ca n't wait to make love to you and sleep in your arms , me and the baby . dylan : soon . all right , you take care of yourself , okay ? sharon : okay . i will take care of myself and our baby . speaking of which , this little boy or girl is ravenous . i skipped lunch . dylan : skipped lunch ? you got to feed the baby . come on . i love you . sharon : i adore you . patty : you 're dylan . dylan : yeah , i am . patty : [ laughs ] i 'm your aunt patty . dylan : oh ! [ chuckles ] hey . uh , it 's , uh , nice to meet you . patty : nice to meet you , too . you do look a little like paulie around the edges . he must be very proud of you . dylan : i suppose . if you excuse me , i was on my way out . patty : wait , wait , wait . you ca n't go yet . i - i have to warn you about sharon . i 'm not sure about the drugs they 're using on her . sage : i want to be with christian . nick : just get some sleep for a little while , okay ? sage : i 'm not sleepy . nick : tell me that when your eyes are n't so droopy . sage : okay . just for a few minutes . nick : few minutes . i 'll take it . sage : you 're gon na tell me if anything changes , anything at all ? nick : i promise . sage : you keep your promises . nick : get some sleep . [ door opens ] nick : oh , geez . i 'm -- [ chuckles ] sorry . dr. anderson : no , my fault . excuse me . nick : you look very familiar . do i know you ? victor : my baby . look at all this machinery . [ sighs ] you 're gon na be all right , okay ? christian . you 're gon na be a big boy one day . you 're gon na fight . you 're gon na fight like a newman . oh , my poor boy . you 're part of this family now . you 're a newman . you 're gon na fight . you 're gon na make it . i love you . i wish i could hold you in my arms now . hmm ? you 'll be all right . you 'll be all right . you 'll be all right . i 'll see you soon , okay ? [ sighs ] [ sighs ] dylan : you know sharon 's drug protocol ? patty : well , i - i do n't have all the pharmacology down pat yet , but i 've been in and out of the institutions long enough to know when they 're giving you the high - octane dosage . she was really out of it last night , and the way she was acting , it was odd . did n't you notice ? dylan : uh , i noticed that she 's actually happier and , uh , more energetic . it 's a big improvement . patty : oh . improvement . dylan : yeah . patty , look , uh , i appreciate your interest in sharon , but do n't you think i probably know my fiancée a little better than you do ? patty : probably . dylan : well , thank you for letting me know , though . patty : the -- the thing that concerns me , though , is the baby . i mean , if they 're giving her extreme drugs like that , it 's -- dylan : i 'm sure that 's not what 's going on . we 're just gon na have to trust the doctors that they know what they 're doing . you take care . stitch : he 's holding his own . it 's a good sign . abby : thank you for telling me that . i 'm kind of freaking out seeing him cubed up like this . stitch : well , i do n't want to intrude , so ... abby : i appreciate you . stitch : okay . [ chuckles ] abby : no , i mean it . i 'm not just saying that . i owe you a huge apology . stitch : hey , i was wrong , too . abby : no , i was wronger . i do n't know what came over me , thinking that i was god 's gift to newman enterprises , solving every crisis in a single bound with a fresh spin and a big smile . stitch : well , that smile is pretty lethal . [ chuckles ] abby : [ chuckles ] stitch : so , what do i owe this sudden burst of appreciation ? abby : my father , a computer virus , and my sketchy brother brought back from the dead . and now everyone 's grieving delia all over again , including me . and i still ca n't believe that my own brother is responsible for taking that sweet , little girl 's life . what is wrong with people ? stitch : maybe not as much as you think . adam may be responsible for you losing your niece , but he 's also responsible for this little guy living long enough to make it to the hospital . michael : thank you . the da 's gon na push hard for no bail . adam : no bail -- that 's coming directly from christine ? michael : yes . look , normally i would parade a string of character witnesses before a judge , but -- adam : it would be a short parade . yeah , got it . michael : is there anybody who would stand up to vouch for you ? adam : no one that i would ask to do that for me in public . but -- but here 's the thing , michael . listen to me . you got to get me out of here , okay ? figure it out . do whatever it takes . i got to see my son before chelsea leaves town . michael : i understand that , but given your recent history of dodging arrest and assuming new identities , no judge will seriously consider giving you another chance to circumvent the law . maybe chelsea could help convince a judge , but i do n't think i could talk her into coming down here . [ door opens ] victor : well , you 're giving me excuses why paragon continues to lay waste to newman enterprises . fix the damn problem , then you call me back . jack : well , i hear you did the decent thing and gave chelsea back her company . victor : offloading a devalued company is a benefit to me and to newman . jack : well , that 's a nice soundbite . i think you helped chelsea to bait adam , getting him riled up about the possibility of chelsea leaving town , while that gave him something to fight for , and you can now leverage him into helping you with your paragon problem . victor : do i hear another attack coming ? jack : no , no , no , no . i do n't intend an attack . in fact , i wanted to say thank you . victor : really ? well , i 'll be damned . dr. anderson : i 'm sharon 's therapist . sharon 's been very concerned about sage 's premature delivery , and since i had another patient to see here , i thought i 'd just check in . not in an official capacity -- just casually -- to bring back some reassuring news to sharon . that 's all . nick : oh , yeah , i 'm all for anything that will aid in her recovery . and i 'm glad you 're being proactive . our little girl , faith , she 's really gon na need her mom . dr. anderson : all children do . patty : sharon . i 'm so glad i finally got you alone . sharon : what do you need , patty ? patty : no one is listening to me , and i 'm really concerned about the drugs they 're giving you . you have to stop taking them . please . neil : hey . okay , so what 's going on with the kidnapper ? any more contact ? what 's happening ? lily : we 're doing a ransom drop . devon : but we have to keep this low key 'cause we have n't said anything to the cops yet . neil : that would be a mistake . cane : that is exactly what lily and i have said . neil : let me ask you . why would you pay out a ransom when there 's no solid proof that this person even really has hilary ? devon : 'cause , dad , this is my one shot at getting my wife back . neil : i understand that , but do n't you think it would be a mist -- i mean , listen , it 's really suspicious that this kidnapper waited this long to demand money . cane : all right , why is it just $ 1 million ? you 're worth more than that . how do you know they 're not gon na ask for $ 1 million now and $ 1 million later and never give you hilary back ? neil : exactly . devon : guys , guys , i realize there are red flags , but this is the strongest lead we 've had on hilary in weeks . lily : i hope this is n't a scam . devon : i believe my wife 's alive , and right now , this is the only way to get her back . neil : well , if there 's anything , uh , that i can do to help , son , i will . dylan : devon , i think we 're bringing too many people into this . lily : no , we have n't told anyone else . cane : i want to go with you to the drop . devon : no , no , dylan 's -- cane : i want to do the drop . devon : dylan is gon na go alone . if the kidnapper suspects he 's being set up , he 's gon na bail . please bring back my wife . gwen : hilary . you 're safe here . please wake up . we need you to -- [ thud ] gwen : [ breathing heavily ] michael : uh , i 'm gon na step out and give you two some privacy . chelsea . adam : i 'm surprised to see you . glad you came . chelsea : have you , uh , have you changed your mind about wanting me to move on without you ? adam : you need to get on with your life , chelsea . apparently my father 's gon na let that happen . chelsea : [ chuckles ] are you seriously bringing up victor right now ? you 're still so obsessed with his every move , you 're monitoring it behind bars now ? adam : he came here , actually , uninvited . he told me the whole story . chelsea : oh . sorry . i - i should n't have jumped to conclusions . adam : it was his feeling that you were gon na take connor and leave town . chelsea : victor 's right again . i am leaving . adam : i need one thing from you . chelsea : just one ? adam : yeah . chelsea : i can think of a hundred things i want right now , things i ca n't have . uh , so -- so what is it ? what 's your one thing ? adam : i want to see connor one last time . stitch : adam not only delivered sage 's baby . he kept little christian here alive with infant cpr . abby : wow . i was so depressed about my family 's company crumbling that ... i do n't know , just seeing this little life here puts everything in perspective . stitch : it does . abby : do you think you 'll ever be able to forgive me for putting this stupid stuff ahead of what 's really important ? stitch : your work is n't stupid . abby : you 're being very understanding . stitch : is that a bad thing ? abby : it 's a very sweet thing . but you know what ? i should let you get back to doctoring before i succumb to another ego trip and ruin this perfect place of peace . stitch : actually , i do n't have to get right back to work . how about we celebrate this perfect place of peace with some coffee ? abby : i 'd like that . chelsea : i ca n't -- i wo n't let you see -- adam : chelsea . chelsea : adam . he 's confused enough as it is . his father disappeared from his life once , and i mourned you for too long before trying to move on . i - i wo n't make that mistake this time . adam : why are you here ? chelsea : to -- to make a clean break , you know , to -- to find some closure . adam : closure ? how do you do that ? do you have , like , uh , magic words that you say , something that 's gon na make this less painful , everything that we 've been through ? i 'd like to hear it , please . chelsea : you have lied to me for the last time . i was willing to give up everything for you , but your need for revenge , it was more important than me , it was more important than our life with our son . adam : no , that 's not true . chelsea : that is true . adam : no , i will own every single lie . i will own every single rotten thing i ever did to you , but nothing ever meant more to me than you and connor . nothing . chelsea : i have to go . adam : please , please , hey , listen to me . look at me , please . i 'm asking for one more visit . i want to see my son one more time , please . chelsea : i have loved you , adam newman . and i am so grateful for the beautiful son you 've given me . adam : so bring him here . bring him here . let me see him . chelsea : it would n't be good for him . it would n't help him . i ca n't do it . adam : how you gon na keep me from my son , chelsea ?

jack : hey , i can be sympathetic to your son and still be loyal to my family . victor : so you 're sticking by adam and to hell with your useless brother , billy boy ? jack : oh , no , no , i 'm loyal to both of them . victor : really ? you know that someone in your inner circle was behind paragon . jack : i knew nothing about adam 's involvement in that . victor : really ? you might not have been aware of what he was up to directly , but your secrecy gave him the freedom to wreak havoc . so do n't think for one moment i was n't justified in everything i 've done to you . jack : whoa , whoa , whoa . you 've forgiven yourself already ?

abby : i talked him into it . i laid out all the facts , and i made a strong case on your behalf . jack : why would he be that generous ? why would he give up a fashion line with that kind of earnings potential ? chelsea : well , it 's not earning that much now . jack : well , it will be . abby : uncle jack , my dad can be very kind . jack : oh , right . that 's what victor newman 's known for -- kindness . abby : when he wants to be . chelsea : well , honestly , it does n't matter why . all that matters is victor 's letting me go . it 's done . this is wonderful news . thank you for going to bat for me . abby : you 're very welcome . uncle jack , be happy for her . jack : oh , i - i am . i am . this opens all kinds of opportunities for you . but what are you gon na do with your newfound freedom ? adam : well , you never pull strings unless you get something in return , so why are you here ? what do you want ? victor : [ sighs ] to help you . adam : [ laughs ] you want to help me . because you 're in the business of helping people recently , right ? victor : i have far more powerful friends in this town than you do . i doubt you have any friends at all . adam : no argument there . victor : i 'm friends with some of the top judges . i 'm sure it wo n't be too difficult to arrange bail for you , although this is a rather difficult situation . adam : bail for me . in exchange for ?

doctor : his vitals are holding steady . so far there have n't been any complications . sage : so -- so he 's getting better ? doctor : well , he is several weeks premature , so he 's fragile . we need to keep his weight up , get him breathing on his own , and then we 'll take it from there . sage : is there anything that we can do to help him get stronger ? doctor : you can see to your own recovery . sage : no , i 'm -- i 'm fine . doctor : mrs. newman , this little guy needs a healthy mom . nick : do n't worry . i 'll see to that . thank you , doctor . sage : thank you . nick : all right , come on . let 's get you back to your room . sage : i 'm not -- no . i 'm not leaving . nick : listen , our son is doing his part to get better . you got to do your part , too . you got to keep your strength up , otherwise how are you gon na help me help him get better ?

dylan : the signal just stopped . stitch : those devices were well - hidden . which makes you wonder if this was ... both : an inside job . dylan : because how could hilary 's kidnappers know about the tracker unless somebody took them off ? lily : are you really just gon na hand over the money without any proof that hilary 's alive ? cane : and no guarantee she 'll be returned safely ? devon : what choice do i have ? lily : devon , come on . devon : lily , i 'm gon na do this . this is only $ 1 million . lily : only ?

gwen : what we really need is a doctor for her . neil : gwen , do you understand that i would have had a doctor up here in a new york minute if i thought it was n't too risky , right ? gwen : but what if we 're doing her more harm than good ? how long can we keep doing this ? neil : i do n't know . babe , we 're just gon na have to have faith , okay ? be patient . that 's all . gwen : what about the `` kidnapper `` ? how patient will he be ? stitch : if hilary 's in some kind of comatose state , she 's gon na need more than meds to sustain her , which means we need to find her fast . what 's paul say about the situation ? dylan : the police are in a holding pattern right now . i 'm working my own angle . stitch : and what 's that ?

have you been upset or uneasy ? sharon : no , i feel wonderful . dr. anderson : no anxiety at all ? sharon : not a bit . i 've never slept so well , but i really conked out . dr. anderson : my guess -- that 's the pregnancy catching up with you . chelsea : what i want to do -- well , what i 've decided i have to do is leave genoa city . abby : why ? why would you do that ? your whole life is here . chelsea : i need a clean break , abby . and my son deserves to grow up someplace where he wo n't be judged for being adam newman 's kid . abby : well , this sucks , but , um , i 'm gon na miss you . and i wish you the best of luck . we both do , do n't we , uncle jack ?

[ chuckles ] abby : oh , i - i wish , but no , there 's no cure . but maybe closure . maybe that would take the edge off . go see him . chelsea : no , adam called . he called me and , um , he made it clear that he -- he wants me to move on . abby : like you 're gon na let him run your life ? chelsea : no , it 's what i want , too , abby . i ca n't stay here . jack : you do n't want to leave things unsaid . abby is right . abby : damn right i am . do you really want adam 's last words ringing in your ear until the end of time ? you are gon na beat yourself up for the rest of your life for -- for not saying what you need to say to adam before you bolted . jack : go to him . see him . talk to him . do n't you need that ? adam : you know , as much as you think that newman enterprises is the reason we all live and breathe , for a guilty man ready to face punishment , your corporation does n't really mean much to me , and neither does bail . victor : ah . oh . [ sighs ] then you 're a bigger fool than i thought you were . adam : it would appear so , would n't it ? victor : you know , i gave chelsea her freedom back . i gave her her company back . adam : when ? victor : today . adam : really ? victor : yeah . in fact , she 's free to , uh , leave town . as we speak , she 's probably packing connor 's things . adam : what are you up to ? why would you do that ? victor : why do you think ? adam : i do n't know . maybe it 's because you have a new grandson to harass ? did you hear about the heroic part that i played in delivering the latest newman heir ? did you hear about that ? victor : it 's amazing . every so often , i catch a glimpse of humanity in you . adam : wonders never cease . victor : yeah . all right . adam : so , that 's it ? you 're leaving so soon ? you 're out of here ? i get it . you know , it 's fine . time is short . you 've got other children that might actually need your help . i 'll just -- i 'll just be here . victor : you know , you 've always wrongfully accused me of neglecting you , for abandoning you . was n't my choice to raise you on a farm in kansas . it was your mother 's choice . it made you angry , did n't it ? gave you a feeling of being abandoned . and now you are willing to abandon your own son . think about what he will feel when he grows up .

[ sighs ] [ sighs ] dylan : you know sharon 's drug protocol ? patty : well , i - i do n't have all the pharmacology down pat yet , but i 've been in and out of the institutions long enough to know when they 're giving you the high - octane dosage . she was really out of it last night , and the way she was acting , it was odd . did n't you notice ? dylan : uh , i noticed that she 's actually happier and , uh , more energetic . it 's a big improvement . patty : oh . improvement . dylan : yeah . patty , look , uh , i appreciate your interest in sharon , but do n't you think i probably know my fiancée a little better than you do ? patty : probably . dylan : well , thank you for letting me know , though . patty : the -- the thing that concerns me , though , is the baby . i mean , if they 're giving her extreme drugs like that , it 's -- dylan : i 'm sure that 's not what 's going on . we 're just gon na have to trust the doctors that they know what they 're doing . you take care . stitch : he 's holding his own . it 's a good sign . abby : thank you for telling me that . i 'm kind of freaking out seeing him cubed up like this . stitch : well , i do n't want to intrude , so ... abby : i appreciate you . stitch : okay . [ chuckles ] abby : no , i mean it . i 'm not just saying that . i owe you a huge apology . stitch : hey , i was wrong , too . abby : no , i was wronger . i do n't know what came over me , thinking that i was god 's gift to newman enterprises , solving every crisis in a single bound with a fresh spin and a big smile . stitch : well , that smile is pretty lethal . [ chuckles ] abby : [ chuckles ] stitch : so , what do i owe this sudden burst of appreciation ? abby : my father , a computer virus , and my sketchy brother brought back from the dead . and now everyone 's grieving delia all over again , including me . and i still ca n't believe that my own brother is responsible for taking that sweet , little girl 's life . what is wrong with people ? stitch : maybe not as much as you think . adam may be responsible for you losing your niece , but he 's also responsible for this little guy living long enough to make it to the hospital . michael : thank you . the da 's gon na push hard for no bail . adam : no bail -- that 's coming directly from christine ? michael : yes . look , normally i would parade a string of character witnesses before a judge , but -- adam : it would be a short parade . yeah , got it . michael : is there anybody who would stand up to vouch for you ? adam : no one that i would ask to do that for me in public . but -- but here 's the thing , michael . listen to me . you got to get me out of here , okay ? figure it out . do whatever it takes . i got to see my son before chelsea leaves town . michael : i understand that , but given your recent history of dodging arrest and assuming new identities , no judge will seriously consider giving you another chance to circumvent the law . maybe chelsea could help convince a judge , but i do n't think i could talk her into coming down here . [ door opens ] victor : well , you 're giving me excuses why paragon continues to lay waste to newman enterprises . fix the damn problem , then you call me back . jack : well , i hear you did the decent thing and gave chelsea back her company . victor : offloading a devalued company is a benefit to me and to newman . jack : well , that 's a nice soundbite . i think you helped chelsea to bait adam , getting him riled up about the possibility of chelsea leaving town , while that gave him something to fight for , and you can now leverage him into helping you with your paragon problem . victor : do i hear another attack coming ? jack : no , no , no , no . i do n't intend an attack . in fact , i wanted to say thank you . victor : really ? well , i 'll be damned . dr. anderson : i 'm sharon 's therapist . sharon 's been very concerned about sage 's premature delivery , and since i had another patient to see here , i thought i 'd just check in . not in an official capacity -- just casually -- to bring back some reassuring news to sharon . that 's all . nick : oh , yeah , i 'm all for anything that will aid in her recovery . and i 'm glad you 're being proactive . our little girl , faith , she 's really gon na need her mom . dr. anderson : all children do . patty : sharon . i 'm so glad i finally got you alone . sharon : what do you need , patty ? patty : no one is listening to me , and i 'm really concerned about the drugs they 're giving you . you have to stop taking them . please . neil : hey . okay , so what 's going on with the kidnapper ? any more contact ? what 's happening ? lily : we 're doing a ransom drop . devon : but we have to keep this low key 'cause we have n't said anything to the cops yet . neil : that would be a mistake . cane : that is exactly what lily and i have said . neil : let me ask you . why would you pay out a ransom when there 's no solid proof that this person even really has hilary ? devon : 'cause , dad , this is my one shot at getting my wife back . neil : i understand that , but do n't you think it would be a mist -- i mean , listen , it 's really suspicious that this kidnapper waited this long to demand money . cane : all right , why is it just $ 1 million ? you 're worth more than that . how do you know they 're not gon na ask for $ 1 million now and $ 1 million later and never give you hilary back ? neil : exactly . devon : guys , guys , i realize there are red flags , but this is the strongest lead we 've had on hilary in weeks . lily : i hope this is n't a scam . devon : i believe my wife 's alive , and right now , this is the only way to get her back . neil : well , if there 's anything , uh , that i can do to help , son , i will . dylan : devon , i think we 're bringing too many people into this . lily : no , we have n't told anyone else . cane : i want to go with you to the drop . devon : no , no , dylan 's -- cane : i want to do the drop . devon : dylan is gon na go alone . if the kidnapper suspects he 's being set up , he 's gon na bail . please bring back my wife . gwen : hilary . you 're safe here . please wake up . we need you to -- [ thud ] gwen : [ breathing heavily ] michael : uh , i 'm gon na step out and give you two some privacy . chelsea . adam : i 'm surprised to see you . glad you came . chelsea : have you , uh , have you changed your mind about wanting me to move on without you ? adam : you need to get on with your life , chelsea . apparently my father 's gon na let that happen . chelsea : [ chuckles ] are you seriously bringing up victor right now ? you 're still so obsessed with his every move , you 're monitoring it behind bars now ? adam : he came here , actually , uninvited . he told me the whole story . chelsea : oh . sorry . i - i should n't have jumped to conclusions . adam : it was his feeling that you were gon na take connor and leave town . chelsea : victor 's right again . i am leaving . adam : i need one thing from you . chelsea : just one ? adam : yeah . chelsea : i can think of a hundred things i want right now , things i ca n't have . uh , so -- so what is it ? what 's your one thing ? adam : i want to see connor one last time . stitch : adam not only delivered sage 's baby . he kept little christian here alive with infant cpr . abby : wow . i was so depressed about my family 's company crumbling that ... i do n't know , just seeing this little life here puts everything in perspective . stitch : it does . abby : do you think you 'll ever be able to forgive me for putting this stupid stuff ahead of what 's really important ? stitch : your work is n't stupid . abby : you 're being very understanding . stitch : is that a bad thing ? abby : it 's a very sweet thing . but you know what ? i should let you get back to doctoring before i succumb to another ego trip and ruin this perfect place of peace . stitch : actually , i do n't have to get right back to work . how about we celebrate this perfect place of peace with some coffee ? abby : i 'd like that . chelsea : i ca n't -- i wo n't let you see -- adam : chelsea . chelsea : adam . he 's confused enough as it is . his father disappeared from his life once , and i mourned you for too long before trying to move on . i - i wo n't make that mistake this time . adam : why are you here ? chelsea : to -- to make a clean break , you know , to -- to find some closure . adam : closure ? how do you do that ? do you have , like , uh , magic words that you say , something that 's gon na make this less painful , everything that we 've been through ? i 'd like to hear it , please . chelsea : you have lied to me for the last time . i was willing to give up everything for you , but your need for revenge , it was more important than me , it was more important than our life with our son . adam : no , that 's not true . chelsea : that is true . adam : no , i will own every single lie . i will own every single rotten thing i ever did to you , but nothing ever meant more to me than you and connor . nothing . chelsea : i have to go . adam : please , please , hey , listen to me . look at me , please . i 'm asking for one more visit . i want to see my son one more time , please . chelsea : i have loved you , adam newman . and i am so grateful for the beautiful son you 've given me . adam : so bring him here . bring him here . let me see him . chelsea : it would n't be good for him . it would n't help him . i ca n't do it . adam : how you gon na keep me from my son , chelsea ?

[ scene_break ] molly : gone ? what do you mean , rafe is gone ? alexis : honey , his head injury was very severe , and during the surgery , there were complications . molly : and he died ? alexis : rafe is still breathing , but there 's -- there 's no brain activity . his body is alive , but the rafe you knew is not there . molly : [ voice breaking ] i just saw him ! we were in the car together ! how can i be okay and he 's -- alexis : i do n't know , but i 'm so grateful that you are alive . molly : [ sobs ] he did n't deserve this ! no matter what he did , rafe did n't deserve this .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : sam , under no circumstances would patrick ever deliberately harm a patient , no matter how he personally felt about them . sam : no , i - i - i know that . i know that . i have always known that . and i just -- i guess i needed to ask him , and i did . patrick assured me that he would never , ever do anything to intentionally harm rafe . but silas -- he 's so angry , and he needs somebody to blame because he 's grieving , and , of course , it 's patrick . elizabeth : when jason came to see me after jake had died to ask about josslyn 's transplant , it was terrible . i was so mad at myself for the mistake i had made that i wanted it to be jason 's fault . sam : okay . so , then , you understand what silas is going through . elizabeth : yeah . sam : he literally thinks that patrick murdered rafe . and i 've got to find a way to convince him that that 's not true . i 'm just -- i 'm not sure when 's the right time to get into that with silas . silas : right time to get into what ? [ scene_break ] molly : gone ? what do you mean , rafe is gone ? alexis : honey , his head injury was very severe , and during the surgery , there were complications . molly : and he died ? alexis : rafe is still breathing , but there 's -- there 's no brain activity . his body is alive , but the rafe you knew is not there . molly : [ voice breaking ] i just saw him ! we were in the car together ! how can i be okay and he 's -- alexis : i do n't know , but i 'm so grateful that you are alive . molly : [ sobs ] he did n't deserve this ! no matter what he did , rafe did n't deserve this . [ sobbing ] alexis : ohh . [ scene_break ] rosalie : i thought you said that rafe kid was brain - dead . correct me if i 'm wrong , but i assume that that meant he could no longer , you know , talk . nina : it was in my head , rosalie . i was seeing things . rosalie : okay . nina : do n't -- do n't `` okay `` me . do n't look at me like that , please . just listen to what i have to say . it was n't a hallucination . i was imagining it . seeing rafe like that -- the guilt got to me , and then this guy franco calmed me down . rosalie : was this guy imaginary , too ? nina : no , he was n't . i know ... it sounds crazy . seeing rafe like that ... got to me . i had nightmares all night . rosalie : why ? nina : because if it were n't for me , rafe would still be alive . [ scene_break ] silas : so , what was it you wanted to talk to me about ? sam : um , i , uh -- yeah , i called you . i do n't know if you heard yet , but rafe 's heart ca n't be used for alice 's transplant . silas : what are you talking about ?

[ scene_break ] alice : i do n't know what to do . dr. q told me that she had no idea how long i could last without a heart . tracy : alice , you 're still at the top of the transplant list . and you remember what daddy used to say ? never accept the first offer . the next heart is gon na be an even better match , and i 'm gon na make sure that i 'm not gon na stop until it 's done . alice : thank you , miss tracy . thank you so much . tracy : but i 'm gon na need something in return . alice : what ? [ scene_break ] felix : ugh . night shift is hard , but it is great to have the whole day free afterwards . elizabeth : mm - hmm . felix : elizabeth , you okay ? elizabeth : [ sighs ] seeing rafe kovich laying in that bed , breathing but basically gone -- it just gets to me . he was so young , and now his life is over . kind of like jake . i did n't get enough time with him . felix : you gon na be okay ? elizabeth : i have to be . i ca n't let it affect my work performance , or dr. o will probably fire me again . i just need to focus on getting out of here and see how cameron 's doing at camp . felix : do n't take this the wrong way , and i 'm glad to be working together again , but i 'm really surprised that frau doctor backpedaled and rehired you . elizabeth : the funny reason is why . britt went to bat for me .

'cause i know that was a problem when you and kiki stayed with me , so ... morgan : oh , right . yeah . uh , yeah . i mean , i do n't take marathon showers like you , and neither does kiki , so it has n't really been a problem . michael : all right . good . you know , it must be pretty uncomfortable for you to be living here during all the renovation . morgan : well , yeah . once i figured out that the noises on the third floor were just pigeons and not , you know , crazed ax murderers , it was a little better , plus i got kiki right across the hall , so , you know ... michael : it 's good , you know ? i 'm glad you had each other to lean on these last few weeks . you guys have come pretty far . you must be pretty over her to be such good friends . morgan : yeah . is there something you want to -- something on your mind you want to ask me ? kiki : all right , guys . i 'm ready . ready to go ? michael : yeah . let 's go .

summer : i do . luca : see , look ! we 've already got the vows memorized . come on . what 's stopping us , summer ? summer : our future children . i do n't want to tell them that daddy and i got hitched in a flyby in front of a judge . luca : look , we 've both had weddings . summer : i know , and that 's no reason to settle . look , i -- i want to promise forever to you while wearing a gown and holding a bouquet while being surrounded by my family . luca : yeah , that 's a -- that 's a lovely idea , but ... do you really think they 'll come ? lily : i want to find the person who thought of this summer project and pummel them with construction paper and glue . cane : hang on a second . you do n't think this is cute ? lily : what ? cane : you do n't think that writing our family members ' names on apples and gluing them to a paper tree is cute ? what is wrong with you ? lily : oh , yeah , it 's adorable . especially because you get to go to work while i stay here and i deal with the mayhem and the questions . cane : no , no , no , no . i 'm not shirking my responsibilities because i 'm the one who wrote the names out so they can now stick them on the apples . lily : aww , that 's why i love you , cane ashby . cane : that 's why i love you , lily ashby . i 'll see you . hey . i love you guys . do a good job . i 'll see you soon , okay ?

i mean , your mom , for starters , does n't approve of me , summer . summer : okay , well , she 's warming up . when i told her that we were engaged , she did n't scream . she was actually kind of encouraging . luca : the only thing she 's encouraged is a long , long engagement . summer : okay , well , she would have done that no matter who i was marrying . i 'm her little girl . but she 's been pretty good about all of this . and when i tell my dad , he 'll be cool with this . but my grandpa , he will be a tough sell . luca : not so tough . summer : what do you -- what do you mean ? luca : i went and shared our news with victor . summer : you -- you did not do that . luca : what ? i -- i thought it was the respectful thing to do . [ chuckles ] summer : okay , well , i mean , at least he did n't try to take a swing at you . did he ? ! luca : [ laughs ] you know , i actually contemplated putting on a helmet before heading into victor 's office , but , uh , it turns out i did n't need it . summer : how did he react ? luca : he did n't jump for joy or rush to shake my hand , but he did say he hoped we 'd both be happy . summer : really ? luca : yeah . i was surprised , too . so , i mean , since we have your grandfather , of all people , and your mom -- mostly -- onboard , let 's get started with the arrangements . summer : yeah , no , we will . um ... i just have to take care of something first , okay ? [ door closes ] luca : [ sighs ] jill : oh , charlie and mattie , you are doing a fabulous job ! wow . but , you know , i have an idea . let 's put some more decorations in . charlie : yeah . jill : yeah . lily : uh , that actually sounds like a lot more work , so let 's stick to the program . jill : no , just hear me out . here 's what i was thinking . since grandpa colin and i are so good to you , we take you to amusement parks and playgrounds , we buy you great gifts , right ? maybe you could put some , i do n't know , some hummingbirds and flowers up near the apples with our names on them . lily : well , what about the other apples ? jill : they can put anything they want in there -- hummingbirds , dragonflies . ahh ! a worm coming out of the apple with genevieve 's name on it would be appropriate , right ? lily : okay , um , you guys keep working , okay ? jill , can i talk to you ? jill : yeah , yeah . you can . you 're doing a great job . go to it . yeah . what ? lily : what was that about ? jill : i was trying to keep the kids focused on their project rather than asking uncomfortable questions about this very strange family tree of ours . lily : oh . hey , dad . neil : hey . lily : you ready to color and paste ? neil : hi , jill . jill : hi , how are you ? neil : of course . i 'm ready to do anything for those grandkids of mine . jill : i 've got to take off , so why do n't you take my place and guide our grandchildren through the last stage of the family tree there , okay ? neil : sure . happy to . lily : thank you for your help . jill : oh , any time at all . boy , that 's really something , looking at our family history laid out that way , is n't it ? neil : yeah . look at this . family tree . something , all right . jill : you know what ? i 'm gon na see you real soon , but before i go , before you glue these down , let 's move this `` billy `` apple right next to the `` victoria `` apple . there . perfect . victoria : do you like it ? billy : i think it 's great . victoria : yeah ? billy : yeah , no , i mean , it 's alluring , it 's very effective . so good that i got caught up there . victoria : [ chuckles ] well , i 'm still brainstorming the slogan , but i was thinking of something along the lines of `` for the woman who always gets what she wants . `` billy : yeah , right , and then we can spin this theme onto all the other products . victoria : that 's exactly what i was thinking . we should n't limit ourself to the market share in the pacific northwest . billy : 100 % agree . this is national campaign . cane : so , uh , what happened to my idea ? and why are you discussing any of this with victoria ? billy : well , victoria 's part of the team now , cane . are you gon na welcome her ? neil : so you know the reason why we do n't see uncle malcolm all that much is because -- you know this . he 's a hotshot photographer . he 's traveling all over the world . lily : right . but he e - mails you and , you know , video chats when he can , right ? charlie : yeah . lily : okay . so , what do you need next ? charlie : grandpa neil 's parents . mattie : how come we never talk about them ? neil : huh ? [ chuckles ] this may be hard for you and charlie to understand , but , um , not everyone stays close with their parents when they grow up , and i -- i just lost touch with mine , that 's all . lily : but grandpa can still give you their names . neil : yeah , you betcha . charlie : yay . neil : we 're gon na finish this whole thing up , no problem at all , all right ? let 's get busy . cane : well , hello , victoria , and welcome to the company . billy : [ chuckles ] nice try , cane , but i know you 're not happy about this . victoria : just leave it alone , billy . it 's not worth it . billy : no , we 're all part of a team , so we should be able to be honest , so ... cane : well , if you 're expecting me to be shocked , i 'm not 'cause i assume jill 's behind this . victoria : oh , very good guess . cane : well , i saw her chatting you up over drinks at the club , so that 's why i think so . victoria : well , she did , and i 'm here . cane : look , i 'm not aiming any of this at you . i like you , i do . i just do n't think this team needs another executive , that 's all . billy : oh , i disagree . i think victoria 's a fantastic asset . brash & sassy ! was her baby . nobody knows it or the customer better than she does . cane : so , what did she promise you ? victoria : she promised me a chance to reshape the future of this brand . cane : meaning she offered you a chance to regain control of your old company . victoria : well , meaning she gave me a chance to help save it . after i saw your terrible marketing idea -- which , by the way , would only appeal to a herd of neanderthals -- i felt morally obligated to pitch in . cane : you know that millions of women in this country watch sports , right ? and my idea is fresh , it has energy . is this -- is that yours ? is that your idea there ? can i see it ? billy : it 's great , is n't it ? cane : mm . it 's a little 1985 . victoria : well , you know , making a woman feel powerful and sexy never goes out of style , cane . cane : that 's true , yeah . billy : i agree with vick . cane : so i see what 's going on here , right ? it 's the two of you against me ? is that , uh , what this is about ? billy , you actually think you have what it takes to push me aside ? jill : i 'll tell you what it 's about . it 's about the three of you . billy : that 's a load of crap , mom , and nobody here 's buying it . [ knocks on door ] victor : come in . summer : hey , you have a little time for me ? victor : hi , my sweetheart . i always have time for you . come in . hello , darling . summer : hi . victor : so ... nice to see you . summer : um , so , i understand you heard i was engaged . victor : yeah . luca actually came to me personally and told me . i appreciated that . summer : yeah , i heard you were pretty gracious . victor : what , did you expect me not to be ? summer : no . not unless , um ... look , grandpa , i just -- i have to ask you something . victor : okay . summer : and i want you to be completely honest with me . victor : all right . summer : are you really okay with me getting married ? jack : i understand why you 're upset about your daughter 's engagement . phyllis : the first guy she marries is a felon . austin , on his worst day , was never the type of threat that luca is . he is smart , jack . he is devious . jack : i agree with you . phyllis : then why are you arguing with me ? jack : because i want you to stop and think before you light into an all - out campaign against your daughter 's wedding . phyllis : oh , i 'm beyond the thinking stage . i got in touch with nick . jack : nick is out of town . phyllis , do n't do this . phyllis : he 's investigating the newman oil spills , and luca 's likely involvement , and i told him to speed it up . jack : and when summer finds out , she wo n't just be angry at you , she 'll be furious at her father . phyllis : when she finds out that we have proof that he is a bad guy , all will be forgiven . jack : well , what if there is no proof ? phyllis : well , there will be . jack : just bear with me . what if there is no proof that luca is any way involved in sabotage ? phyllis : then i will go to plan b . jack : and push your daughter away . phyllis : what do you want me to do , jack ? nothing ? jack : no , i want you to stop and think before you light into a -- phyllis : when i came back and found her with austin , you , nick , my sister -- none of you did anything . you let it happen . jack : no , no , no . we all supported her while she made her own choices . phyllis : what you should have done is shut that down . that 's what i would have done if i was here . i would not have let my daughter make that mistake . i am here now and i 'm not gon na watch and i am not gon na wait . i 'm gon na end this thing with luca ! jack : i hate to think what this will do to destroy your relationship with your daughter . phyllis : it wo n't ! jack : her own mother is undermining her wedding plans . phyllis : that man is never gon na make her happy . jack : you 're forgetting something very important . your daughter 's in love with that man . phyllis : she thinks she loves him . what do you want me to do ? you want me to smile and just help her get married ? jack : yes . that 's exactly what i expect you to do . cane : actually , i 'm with billy on this one , so do n't walk in here and give us some speech about unity when all you 've done is manipulate us . jill : that 's what you think i 've done ? cane : no , that 's what i know you 've done . you 've pitted him against me . now you 've thrown her in the mix . billy : except unlike cane , i 'm glad victoria 's here . victoria : thank you . but we all see how much you enjoy shifting the power , jill . billy : yes , you 've been shuffling us around like game pieces just to prove that you can . jill : i admit that i could have handled it a little more delicately . cane : so , how are you gon na fix it ? jill : i do n't need to fix it . it 's working brilliantly . cane : ah . jill : you see , the three of you thrive on competition . and i 'm thrilled that you 're all fired up like this because enthusiasm , passion , is what we need at chancellor industries . this is how we pay tribute to katherine and her company . we make it more successful than it has ever been before . we make it very clear that in genoa city , chancellor industries is king . and i have chosen the three of you as my dream team . you are going to accomplish my vision , and i have to believe that you would all love that , too . billy : yes , we do , but -- jill : no buts . i am ready to take on jabot and newman . are you ? come on , guys . the time for arguing is over . this is the time to commit . all right ? no more divided loyalties . no more feet in other camps . i want every ounce of your creativity , your drive , and your enthusiasm right here . victoria : [ sighs ] jill : are you quitting ? victoria : no , i 'm all in . i 'm off to take my last foot out of the newman camp . jill : that 's my girl . i 'm gon na walk you out . carry on , boys . make me proud . victor : do you think i disapprove of luca ? summer : well , do you ? victor : uh - huh . summer : look , grandpa , i know that i 'm young and -- victor : sweetheart , this has nothing to do with you , nor does it have anything to do with luca . summer : okay , then i do n't understand . victor : as your father can testify , and your aunt -- in fact all of my children and grandchildren -- as far as i 'm concerned , are too good for anyone . i do n't want anyone to marry you . summer : okay , well , what if i found someone exactly like you ? victor : run . summer : [ chuckles ] look , grandpa , i do love luca , and i do think that we could have a really amazing future together . victor : let me say this -- if you did n't feel that way , i would n't even be talking to that man . you have supported me , always . and i will always support you . summer : thank you , grandpa . victor : you 're welcome , my sweetheart . jack : summer is a grown woman . she is going to make her own choices , and there 's nothing you or victor or anyone else can do to stop her . phyllis : jack , she is my daughter and i have to look out for her . jack : well , now you 're sounding like jill with all the maternal justification . phyllis : jill ? jack : yeah , she thinks because she 's billy 's mother she has carte blanche to manipulate his life . phyllis : she 's pushing him towards victoria . what 's wrong with that ? jack : nothing , if that 's what billy wants . what if billy wants something else ? what if billy wants someone else ? phyllis : luca is a two - headed snake . jack : your daughter thinks he 's changed . phyllis : she 's wrong . jack : listen to yourself . you keep pushing your agenda on your daughter , one of two things is gon na happen . she 's gon na cave or she 's gon na bolt . which one do you want ? phyllis : neither . i - i want to help her . jack : that 's what we 'll do . we 'll be right by her side if and when she falls , but she has to make her own mistakes . phyllis : you make the mistake . that 's how you realize what 's important . jack : yeah , that 's how it works . is that a sign you 're starting to see things my way ? phyllis : i will do the right thing . i will do the smart thing . and i will guide my daughter through her wedding . jack : i 'm proud of you . i have a meeting i got to get to , okay ? lily : thank you for helping out with the family tree . i doubt that you -- i thought you were gon na walk in here and get into a whole thing about your parents . neil : no harm , no foul , right ? charlie and mattie , they 're already over it , so ... lily : well , i 'm not . i still have a lot of questions . neil : you do , do n't you ? about your grandparents ? yeah . why ? lily : well , 'cause how you said that you lost touch with them . that 's what you always told me , but what does that really mean ? neil : it means i 've told you everything that you need to know . i 'm gon na go get some water . you want some water ? lily : see , you 're doing it again . you 're avoiding instead of explaining . neil : because , lily , it 's a non - issue . lily : not to me . neil : all right . what it boils down to is , my dad raised me more than my mother did because she faded out of my life . i went to college , started my career , and then eventually , my dad and i , we drifted apart . lily : so , you have n't seen or talked to them in all these years ? i mean , do you even know where they are ? neil : i do not . i do n't even know if they 're alive . lily : that 's awful . neil : it 's just the way it is , lily . they stopped being my family a long time ago . now , listen . you and my grandkids , i love you guys . you are my family . and you are all i need . jack : club soda . jill : make that two . i 'm celebrating . jack : oh , you land a new account ? jill : no , actually , a new executive . victoria defected from newman . she 's back at brash & sassy ! working alongside billy , right where she belongs . jack : i hope that works out . jill : well , you should n't . because if it works , we 're gon na crush jabot and newman and everything in our path . jack : wow , it sounds like you have a surefire plan . jill : well , you and phyllis have some news , too , do n't you ? summer ? jack : yeah , summer 's engagement . jill : you do n't sound very happy about that . jack : well , news of this impending marriage almost sent my wife down a very self - destructive path . jill : really ? tell me about that . phyllis : luca ! summer here ? luca : uh , you know , you just missed her , but i can tell her you dropped by . phyllis : oh , thank you . i 'll wait . actually , i 'm glad to have a chance to talk to you alone . luca : oh , good , you know , so am i. i -- i wanted to thank you . summer tells me that you , uh -- you took our news well and that you 're being very supportive about us getting married . phyllis : well , i support my daughter . although , i was surprised . i thought perhaps your proposal was in response to the pregnancy scare . luca : that , uh -- [ chuckles ] that did play a role . it put a lot of things in perspective . phyllis : like what things ? luca : things like i 'm ready to take the next step with summer . although she did say that you 'd , uh -- you 'd rather we wait a while . phyllis : i 'm sure you can understand why . luca : not really . care to explain ? phyllis : summer fell into her first marriage very fast with someone she really did not know . and after austin died , her heart was broken all over again . because she found out that her husband was n't exactly who she thought he was . luca : history will not repeat itself , phyllis . i love summer , and i promise to be the husband she deserves . phyllis : that is a lovely thing to say . but is there a need to be rushing things so quickly ? luca : actually , you can thank your ex - husband for that . it was nick 's idea . [ knocks on door ] victoria : hi . hope i 'm not interrupting . summer : no , um , i 'm just leaving . actually , i 'm hoping that you 'll be really happy for me . victoria : why ? what 's going on ? summer : i 'm getting married . victoria : congratulations ! summer : yeah . thank you . victoria : um , to luca , i assume . summer : yeah , who else ? really , anyway , um ... i know that this is really unexpected , but it means a lot to have my family behind me , so ... victoria : i hope you 'll be really happy . summer : thanks . i will be . victoria : mm - hmm . okay . summer : anyway , thank you , grandpa . i love you guys . bye . victor : thank you for coming by . victoria : well , she seems happy . victor : yeah , she does . victoria : i doubt , however , that nick and phyllis are very enthused , just as i doubt that you 're enthused , despite the smile that you just gave summer . so , do you want to tell me what 's really going on ? victor : i 'm standing by granddaughter . summer 's a grown woman , free to make her own choices , as are you . victoria : that 's it ? that 's all you have to say ? victor : yeah . why are you here ? victoria : [ sighs ] well , i 'm working at brash & sassy ! now , so i thought i would just come and gather the rest of the things out of this office and make it official . victor : all right . then get to it . you know where things are . billy : i know you think i 'm just trying to get under your skin , cane , but i like this idea better than yours . cane : and no doubt jill will , too . billy : 'cause it 's a better campaign . cane : billy , you do n't realize that she 's using this as a smoke screen to put you and victoria back together . you know that , do you ? billy : i understand that . it 's hard to miss when it 's being shoved in your face every time jill opens her mouth . she 's lobbying for a reunion , big time . cane : does victoria know about this ? billy oh , she 's fully aware of the game plan , and i keep telling jill that victoria and i are never getting back together . ever . cane : although you 've said that before . billy : no , this time is different . our breakup was nuclear . it 's taken us a lot of time and a lot of energy to get back to where we are , and we 're good . cane : you do n't think you 're gon na look at her and think about all the times you had and things you shared together and the what - ifs ? billy : we moved on , cane . i 've moved on . cane : who 'd you move on with ? phyllis : nick said what ? luca : well , he talked to me about stepping up , committing to summer . although , that was before , when he thought we were pregnant . anyway , it 's an excellent idea , and i plan to follow up on it as a husband and someday , i hope , as the father of her child . phyllis : you know , marriage and parenthood is not easy . luca : do n't you think i know that ? look , summer and i are gon na be faced with challenges we never anticipated . but we 'll make it . we , together , can withstand anything . summer : what are you saying to luca ? jack : and phyllis went on a tear about ending this wedding and bringing luca down . jill : but you did n't agree with her . jack : no , of course i did n't ! she thinks like this , she 's only gon na destroy her relationship with her daughter and devastate herself in the process . jill : and she did n't listen to you . jack : no , strangely , she did . it was n't long ago we 'd argue about something like this for days , weeks . jill : [ laughing ] but this time , your wife chose to honor your opinion . what is the problem ? jack : do n't get me wrong . i 'm grateful . i 'm just surprised . jill : oh , jack , for heaven 's sake , you 're just looking for trouble where there is n't any . i happen to know that your wife wants to make your marriage work . jack : wait , how do you know that ? lily : why do n't we track down your parents , and then you can reach out to them ? neil : there 's no need to . we became estranged a lifetime ago . why does this matter so much to you ? lily : well , because , i mean , this is our family . it 's our history . it 's about understanding who you are and where you came from . neil : wait a minute . i understand exactly who i am . lily : okay , this is n't just for me . this is also for mattie and charlie , too . i want them to know who their great - grandparents are before it 's too late . neil : it 's already too late . lily : well , it does n't have to be . whatever the reason that made you guys drift apart , i mean , ca n't you just move past it ? neil : i do n't think so . lily : okay , i do n't believe that . look at us . i mean , we have managed to work through some seemingly insurmountable problems . because family is so important to us . so i find it hard to believe that you just closed the door on your mom and dad . you must want to know what happened to them . neil : i have no desire , none whatsoever , to find out what 's happening with my parents , where they 're living , if they 're living . lily : yeah , but family means everything to you . neil : there comes a point in your life where you have to accept that certain people were just not meant to be in each other 's lives . i reached that point a long , long time ago . i made peace with it . i hope you can understand that . lily : [ sighs ] i mean , i guess i can , but ... mattie : mommy , we need you ! neil : they need you . victor : do you have everything ? victoria : yeah , i -- i think i got everything . victor : good . victoria : you know , i may not be working here anymore , but we 're still family . victor : of course we are . victoria : [ sighs ] about summer 's engagement -- i do n't believe that you 're all zen about it . not for one second . victor : i think i 've made my position clear on it . but i 'm sure you have other things to worry about right now , like your new job . victoria : yeah , i know . i have to get back to work . victor : yeah , i need to get back to business , as well . okay ? billy : just because i 'm moving on with my life , that does n't mean it 's with someone else , and why do n't you do us all a favor and use this creative energy into something positive , like work on the new ad campaign instead of focusing on my personal life . cane : so , that , um , waitress in the club . she meant nothing to you , right ? billy : bethany was fun . she was a transition . but why do you care , cane ? i mean , seriously . we 're not buddies . cane : no , we 're not . you know what , we 're not even close to being buddies . you know , billy , i may not agree with jill 's methods , you know , but i do understand why she 's doing what 's she doing . you see , a little while back , lily and i went through a rough patch , and ultimately , it was our kids that brought us back together . 'cause you know something ? passion and lust , it 's just -- it 's a transitional distraction . that 's all it is . do you know what matters most in this world ? it 's family , billy . jill : it 's obvious that phyllis wants to make your marriage work . you have to be blind not to see the two of you together since she 's come back home , acting like a couple of newlyweds with all the public displays of affection . jack : yeah , that 's true . it has been great . i do n't know . just something feels strange . jill : about phyllis ? jack : yeah , it 's like she 's trying too hard . it 's like she 's being a little too cautious with me . one thing phyllis never is is cautious . jill : well , maybe she 's changing . jack : but why ? jill : i do n't know . she 's putting a lot of effort into your relationship , right ? she 's learning to compromise for the two of you , for your future . you should consider yourself lucky . it sounds to me like phyllis is coming to her senses . luca : your mother was n't saying anything wrong . we were just talking about what nick told me , that a man has to do right by a woman . phyllis : he was speaking very passionately . seems like a man in love . luca : that i am . summer : so , you 're feeling better about us getting married ? phyllis : much better . summer : [ laughs ] that 's amazing . that 's great . [ laughs ] and you know what ? grandpa was actually onboard , as well , so ... luca : hey , i told you ! summer : yes , you did ! you did . and , um ... with everybody being so cool about us getting married , um ... i 'm just feeling a lot more clear on what i want , and i know what i want to do now . luca : what , with the wedding ? summer : yes . look , i still want the dress and the flowers and the frills , but i do n't want to wait . i want to get married as soon as we can pull everything together . luca : done . mmm ! summer : [ giggles ] oh , and mom -- look , i 'm sorry , and i hope you understand why we 're not gon na do the whole long engagement thing , but i can still count on your help , right ? phyllis : definitely . summer : okay , good , because i want to get started planning today . phyllis : you just tell me what you need , honey . summer : okay . well , actually , we have n't even thought about what we need . phyllis : well , you talk . you discuss those details , all right ? you call me later . summer : okay . phyllis : okay . love you . summer : i love you . [ luca and summer chuckling ] phyllis : this wedding is on a fast track to hell . i am doing whatever i can to end this . even working with you . victor : now , i knew i would be hearing from you . i did n't expect it to be so soon . phyllis : well , surprise . we are going to move . now . victor : you mean , we 'd be working together ? phyllis : together .

so , close your eyes . billy : close my eyes ? victoria : just close them ! close them . billy : okay . eye closed . now what ? victoria : okay . imagine . a ballad , slowly building , sensual . the music leads us to a woman standing by a window . her back to us . a breeze blowing through her hair . she 's wearing a stunning , sophisticated low - backed gown . a beautiful perfume bottle is in her hand . she slowly applies the perfume to her neck , trailing it down between her breasts . then we hear a man 's voice . billy : i could n't stay away . victoria : as she turns to the not - yet - seen man , we reveal her face . a beckoning smile plays across her lips . she 's what every woman wants to be -- strong , sexy , stunning . she moves confidently to the man and she replies ... phyllis : i knew you could n't . victoria : she pulls him into a passionate kiss which grows and grows . billy ? billy , are you with me or not ? billy ! jack : i strongly suggest you leave right now . victor : before i go , one piece of advice . you make sure your wife keeps her temper in check . unless she wants to alienate my granddaughter . phyllis : summer and luca are engaged . jack : you 're kidding . phyllis : i wish . and as you probably guessed , victor is as thrilled as i am . jack : oh , i 'm sure he 's ready to end that marriage right now . i 'm sure you shut him down , right ? phyllis : you just heard me . i 'm not interested in joining forces . jack : because you have a plan all your own . phyllis : you 're damn right i do . i would rather die than to see my daughter marry luca santori . no way is that wedding happening . summer : look , i know that our engagement probably took a lot of people by surprise , but my family would n't leave me in a church with empty pews . luca : you sure about that ? i mean , your mom , for starters , does n't approve of me , summer . summer : okay , well , she 's warming up . when i told her that we were engaged , she did n't scream . she was actually kind of encouraging . luca : the only thing she 's encouraged is a long , long engagement . summer : okay , well , she would have done that no matter who i was marrying . i 'm her little girl . but she 's been pretty good about all of this . and when i tell my dad , he 'll be cool with this . but my grandpa , he will be a tough sell . luca : not so tough . summer : what do you -- what do you mean ? luca : i went and shared our news with victor . summer : you -- you did not do that . luca : what ? i -- i thought it was the respectful thing to do . [ chuckles ] summer : okay , well , i mean , at least he did n't try to take a swing at you . did he ? ! luca : [ laughs ] you know , i actually contemplated putting on a helmet before heading into victor 's office , but , uh , it turns out i did n't need it . summer : how did he react ? luca : he did n't jump for joy or rush to shake my hand , but he did say he hoped we 'd both be happy . summer : really ? luca : yeah . i was surprised , too . so , i mean , since we have your grandfather , of all people , and your mom -- mostly -- onboard , let 's get started with the arrangements . summer : yeah , no , we will . um ... i just have to take care of something first , okay ? [ door closes ] luca : [ sighs ] jill : oh , charlie and mattie , you are doing a fabulous job ! wow . but , you know , i have an idea . let 's put some more decorations in . charlie : yeah . jill : yeah . lily : uh , that actually sounds like a lot more work , so let 's stick to the program . jill : no , just hear me out . here 's what i was thinking . since grandpa colin and i are so good to you , we take you to amusement parks and playgrounds , we buy you great gifts , right ? maybe you could put some , i do n't know , some hummingbirds and flowers up near the apples with our names on them . lily : well , what about the other apples ? jill : they can put anything they want in there -- hummingbirds , dragonflies . ahh ! a worm coming out of the apple with genevieve 's name on it would be appropriate , right ? lily : okay , um , you guys keep working , okay ? jill , can i talk to you ? jill : yeah , yeah . you can . you 're doing a great job . go to it . yeah . what ? lily : what was that about ? jill : i was trying to keep the kids focused on their project rather than asking uncomfortable questions about this very strange family tree of ours . lily : oh . hey , dad . neil : hey . lily : you ready to color and paste ? neil : hi , jill . jill : hi , how are you ? neil : of course . i 'm ready to do anything for those grandkids of mine . jill : i 've got to take off , so why do n't you take my place and guide our grandchildren through the last stage of the family tree there , okay ? neil : sure . happy to . lily : thank you for your help . jill : oh , any time at all . boy , that 's really something , looking at our family history laid out that way , is n't it ? neil : yeah . look at this . family tree . something , all right . jill : you know what ? i 'm gon na see you real soon , but before i go , before you glue these down , let 's move this `` billy `` apple right next to the `` victoria `` apple . there . perfect . victoria : do you like it ? billy : i think it 's great . victoria : yeah ? billy : yeah , no , i mean , it 's alluring , it 's very effective . so good that i got caught up there . victoria : [ chuckles ] well , i 'm still brainstorming the slogan , but i was thinking of something along the lines of `` for the woman who always gets what she wants . `` billy : yeah , right , and then we can spin this theme onto all the other products . victoria : that 's exactly what i was thinking . we should n't limit ourself to the market share in the pacific northwest . billy : 100 % agree . this is national campaign . cane : so , uh , what happened to my idea ? and why are you discussing any of this with victoria ? billy : well , victoria 's part of the team now , cane . are you gon na welcome her ? neil : so you know the reason why we do n't see uncle malcolm all that much is because -- you know this . he 's a hotshot photographer . he 's traveling all over the world . lily : right . but he e - mails you and , you know , video chats when he can , right ? charlie : yeah . lily : okay . so , what do you need next ? charlie : grandpa neil 's parents . mattie : how come we never talk about them ? neil : huh ? [ chuckles ] this may be hard for you and charlie to understand , but , um , not everyone stays close with their parents when they grow up , and i -- i just lost touch with mine , that 's all . lily : but grandpa can still give you their names . neil : yeah , you betcha . charlie : yay . neil : we 're gon na finish this whole thing up , no problem at all , all right ? let 's get busy . cane : well , hello , victoria , and welcome to the company . billy : [ chuckles ] nice try , cane , but i know you 're not happy about this . victoria : just leave it alone , billy . it 's not worth it . billy : no , we 're all part of a team , so we should be able to be honest , so ... cane : well , if you 're expecting me to be shocked , i 'm not 'cause i assume jill 's behind this . victoria : oh , very good guess . cane : well , i saw her chatting you up over drinks at the club , so that 's why i think so . victoria : well , she did , and i 'm here . cane : look , i 'm not aiming any of this at you . i like you , i do . i just do n't think this team needs another executive , that 's all . billy : oh , i disagree . i think victoria 's a fantastic asset . brash & sassy ! was her baby . nobody knows it or the customer better than she does . cane : so , what did she promise you ? victoria : she promised me a chance to reshape the future of this brand . cane : meaning she offered you a chance to regain control of your old company . victoria : well , meaning she gave me a chance to help save it . after i saw your terrible marketing idea -- which , by the way , would only appeal to a herd of neanderthals -- i felt morally obligated to pitch in . cane : you know that millions of women in this country watch sports , right ? and my idea is fresh , it has energy . is this -- is that yours ? is that your idea there ? can i see it ? billy : it 's great , is n't it ? cane : mm . it 's a little 1985 . victoria : well , you know , making a woman feel powerful and sexy never goes out of style , cane . cane : that 's true , yeah . billy : i agree with vick . cane : so i see what 's going on here , right ? it 's the two of you against me ? is that , uh , what this is about ? billy , you actually think you have what it takes to push me aside ? jill : i 'll tell you what it 's about . it 's about the three of you . billy : that 's a load of crap , mom , and nobody here 's buying it . [ knocks on door ] victor : come in . summer : hey , you have a little time for me ? victor : hi , my sweetheart . i always have time for you . come in . hello , darling . summer : hi . victor : so ... nice to see you . summer : um , so , i understand you heard i was engaged . victor : yeah . luca actually came to me personally and told me . i appreciated that . summer : yeah , i heard you were pretty gracious . victor : what , did you expect me not to be ? summer : no . not unless , um ... look , grandpa , i just -- i have to ask you something . victor : okay . summer : and i want you to be completely honest with me . victor : all right . summer : are you really okay with me getting married ? jack : i understand why you 're upset about your daughter 's engagement . phyllis : the first guy she marries is a felon . austin , on his worst day , was never the type of threat that luca is . he is smart , jack . he is devious . jack : i agree with you . phyllis : then why are you arguing with me ? jack : because i want you to stop and think before you light into an all - out campaign against your daughter 's wedding . phyllis : oh , i 'm beyond the thinking stage . i got in touch with nick . jack : nick is out of town . phyllis , do n't do this . phyllis : he 's investigating the newman oil spills , and luca 's likely involvement , and i told him to speed it up . jack : and when summer finds out , she wo n't just be angry at you , she 'll be furious at her father . phyllis : when she finds out that we have proof that he is a bad guy , all will be forgiven . jack : well , what if there is no proof ? phyllis : well , there will be . jack : just bear with me . what if there is no proof that luca is any way involved in sabotage ? phyllis : then i will go to plan b . jack : and push your daughter away . phyllis : what do you want me to do , jack ? nothing ? jack : no , i want you to stop and think before you light into a -- phyllis : when i came back and found her with austin , you , nick , my sister -- none of you did anything . you let it happen . jack : no , no , no . we all supported her while she made her own choices . phyllis : what you should have done is shut that down . that 's what i would have done if i was here . i would not have let my daughter make that mistake . i am here now and i 'm not gon na watch and i am not gon na wait . i 'm gon na end this thing with luca ! jack : i hate to think what this will do to destroy your relationship with your daughter . phyllis : it wo n't ! jack : her own mother is undermining her wedding plans . phyllis : that man is never gon na make her happy . jack : you 're forgetting something very important . your daughter 's in love with that man . phyllis : she thinks she loves him . what do you want me to do ? you want me to smile and just help her get married ? jack : yes . that 's exactly what i expect you to do . cane : actually , i 'm with billy on this one , so do n't walk in here and give us some speech about unity when all you 've done is manipulate us . jill : that 's what you think i 've done ? cane : no , that 's what i know you 've done . you 've pitted him against me . now you 've thrown her in the mix . billy : except unlike cane , i 'm glad victoria 's here . victoria : thank you . but we all see how much you enjoy shifting the power , jill . billy : yes , you 've been shuffling us around like game pieces just to prove that you can . jill : i admit that i could have handled it a little more delicately . cane : so , how are you gon na fix it ? jill : i do n't need to fix it . it 's working brilliantly . cane : ah . jill : you see , the three of you thrive on competition . and i 'm thrilled that you 're all fired up like this because enthusiasm , passion , is what we need at chancellor industries . this is how we pay tribute to katherine and her company . we make it more successful than it has ever been before . we make it very clear that in genoa city , chancellor industries is king . and i have chosen the three of you as my dream team . you are going to accomplish my vision , and i have to believe that you would all love that , too . billy : yes , we do , but -- jill : no buts . i am ready to take on jabot and newman . are you ? come on , guys . the time for arguing is over . this is the time to commit . all right ? no more divided loyalties . no more feet in other camps . i want every ounce of your creativity , your drive , and your enthusiasm right here . victoria : [ sighs ] jill : are you quitting ? victoria : no , i 'm all in . i 'm off to take my last foot out of the newman camp . jill : that 's my girl . i 'm gon na walk you out . carry on , boys . make me proud . victor : do you think i disapprove of luca ? summer : well , do you ? victor : uh - huh . summer : look , grandpa , i know that i 'm young and -- victor : sweetheart , this has nothing to do with you , nor does it have anything to do with luca . summer : okay , then i do n't understand . victor : as your father can testify , and your aunt -- in fact all of my children and grandchildren -- as far as i 'm concerned , are too good for anyone . i do n't want anyone to marry you . summer : okay , well , what if i found someone exactly like you ? victor : run . summer : [ chuckles ] look , grandpa , i do love luca , and i do think that we could have a really amazing future together . victor : let me say this -- if you did n't feel that way , i would n't even be talking to that man . you have supported me , always . and i will always support you . summer : thank you , grandpa . victor : you 're welcome , my sweetheart . jack : summer is a grown woman . she is going to make her own choices , and there 's nothing you or victor or anyone else can do to stop her . phyllis : jack , she is my daughter and i have to look out for her . jack : well , now you 're sounding like jill with all the maternal justification . phyllis : jill ? jack : yeah , she thinks because she 's billy 's mother she has carte blanche to manipulate his life . phyllis : she 's pushing him towards victoria . what 's wrong with that ? jack : nothing , if that 's what billy wants . what if billy wants something else ? what if billy wants someone else ? phyllis : luca is a two - headed snake . jack : your daughter thinks he 's changed . phyllis : she 's wrong . jack : listen to yourself . you keep pushing your agenda on your daughter , one of two things is gon na happen . she 's gon na cave or she 's gon na bolt . which one do you want ? phyllis : neither . i - i want to help her . jack : that 's what we 'll do . we 'll be right by her side if and when she falls , but she has to make her own mistakes . phyllis : you make the mistake . that 's how you realize what 's important . jack : yeah , that 's how it works . is that a sign you 're starting to see things my way ? phyllis : i will do the right thing . i will do the smart thing . and i will guide my daughter through her wedding . jack : i 'm proud of you . i have a meeting i got to get to , okay ? lily : thank you for helping out with the family tree . i doubt that you -- i thought you were gon na walk in here and get into a whole thing about your parents . neil : no harm , no foul , right ? charlie and mattie , they 're already over it , so ... lily : well , i 'm not . i still have a lot of questions . neil : you do , do n't you ? about your grandparents ? yeah . why ? lily : well , 'cause how you said that you lost touch with them . that 's what you always told me , but what does that really mean ? neil : it means i 've told you everything that you need to know . i 'm gon na go get some water . you want some water ? lily : see , you 're doing it again . you 're avoiding instead of explaining . neil : because , lily , it 's a non - issue . lily : not to me . neil : all right . what it boils down to is , my dad raised me more than my mother did because she faded out of my life . i went to college , started my career , and then eventually , my dad and i , we drifted apart . lily : so , you have n't seen or talked to them in all these years ? i mean , do you even know where they are ? neil : i do not . i do n't even know if they 're alive . lily : that 's awful . neil : it 's just the way it is , lily . they stopped being my family a long time ago . now , listen . you and my grandkids , i love you guys . you are my family . and you are all i need . jack : club soda . jill : make that two . i 'm celebrating . jack : oh , you land a new account ? jill : no , actually , a new executive . victoria defected from newman . she 's back at brash & sassy ! working alongside billy , right where she belongs . jack : i hope that works out . jill : well , you should n't . because if it works , we 're gon na crush jabot and newman and everything in our path . jack : wow , it sounds like you have a surefire plan . jill : well , you and phyllis have some news , too , do n't you ? summer ? jack : yeah , summer 's engagement . jill : you do n't sound very happy about that . jack : well , news of this impending marriage almost sent my wife down a very self - destructive path . jill : really ? tell me about that . phyllis : luca ! summer here ? luca : uh , you know , you just missed her , but i can tell her you dropped by . phyllis : oh , thank you . i 'll wait . actually , i 'm glad to have a chance to talk to you alone . luca : oh , good , you know , so am i. i -- i wanted to thank you . summer tells me that you , uh -- you took our news well and that you 're being very supportive about us getting married . phyllis : well , i support my daughter . although , i was surprised . i thought perhaps your proposal was in response to the pregnancy scare . luca : that , uh -- [ chuckles ] that did play a role . it put a lot of things in perspective . phyllis : like what things ? luca : things like i 'm ready to take the next step with summer . although she did say that you 'd , uh -- you 'd rather we wait a while . phyllis : i 'm sure you can understand why . luca : not really . care to explain ? phyllis : summer fell into her first marriage very fast with someone she really did not know . and after austin died , her heart was broken all over again . because she found out that her husband was n't exactly who she thought he was . luca : history will not repeat itself , phyllis . i love summer , and i promise to be the husband she deserves . phyllis : that is a lovely thing to say . but is there a need to be rushing things so quickly ? luca : actually , you can thank your ex - husband for that . it was nick 's idea . [ knocks on door ] victoria : hi . hope i 'm not interrupting . summer : no , um , i 'm just leaving . actually , i 'm hoping that you 'll be really happy for me . victoria : why ? what 's going on ? summer : i 'm getting married . victoria : congratulations ! summer : yeah . thank you . victoria : um , to luca , i assume . summer : yeah , who else ? really , anyway , um ... i know that this is really unexpected , but it means a lot to have my family behind me , so ... victoria : i hope you 'll be really happy . summer : thanks . i will be . victoria : mm - hmm . okay . summer : anyway , thank you , grandpa . i love you guys . bye . victor : thank you for coming by . victoria : well , she seems happy . victor : yeah , she does . victoria : i doubt , however , that nick and phyllis are very enthused , just as i doubt that you 're enthused , despite the smile that you just gave summer . so , do you want to tell me what 's really going on ? victor : i 'm standing by granddaughter . summer 's a grown woman , free to make her own choices , as are you . victoria : that 's it ? that 's all you have to say ? victor : yeah . why are you here ? victoria : [ sighs ] well , i 'm working at brash & sassy ! now , so i thought i would just come and gather the rest of the things out of this office and make it official . victor : all right . then get to it . you know where things are . billy : i know you think i 'm just trying to get under your skin , cane , but i like this idea better than yours . cane : and no doubt jill will , too . billy : 'cause it 's a better campaign . cane : billy , you do n't realize that she 's using this as a smoke screen to put you and victoria back together . you know that , do you ? billy : i understand that . it 's hard to miss when it 's being shoved in your face every time jill opens her mouth . she 's lobbying for a reunion , big time . cane : does victoria know about this ? billy oh , she 's fully aware of the game plan , and i keep telling jill that victoria and i are never getting back together . ever . cane : although you 've said that before . billy : no , this time is different . our breakup was nuclear . it 's taken us a lot of time and a lot of energy to get back to where we are , and we 're good . cane : you do n't think you 're gon na look at her and think about all the times you had and things you shared together and the what - ifs ? billy : we moved on , cane . i 've moved on . cane : who 'd you move on with ? phyllis : nick said what ? luca : well , he talked to me about stepping up , committing to summer . although , that was before , when he thought we were pregnant . anyway , it 's an excellent idea , and i plan to follow up on it as a husband and someday , i hope , as the father of her child . phyllis : you know , marriage and parenthood is not easy . luca : do n't you think i know that ? look , summer and i are gon na be faced with challenges we never anticipated . but we 'll make it . we , together , can withstand anything . summer : what are you saying to luca ? jack : and phyllis went on a tear about ending this wedding and bringing luca down . jill : but you did n't agree with her . jack : no , of course i did n't ! she thinks like this , she 's only gon na destroy her relationship with her daughter and devastate herself in the process . jill : and she did n't listen to you . jack : no , strangely , she did . it was n't long ago we 'd argue about something like this for days , weeks . jill : [ laughing ] but this time , your wife chose to honor your opinion . what is the problem ? jack : do n't get me wrong . i 'm grateful . i 'm just surprised . jill : oh , jack , for heaven 's sake , you 're just looking for trouble where there is n't any . i happen to know that your wife wants to make your marriage work . jack : wait , how do you know that ? lily : why do n't we track down your parents , and then you can reach out to them ? neil : there 's no need to . we became estranged a lifetime ago . why does this matter so much to you ? lily : well , because , i mean , this is our family . it 's our history . it 's about understanding who you are and where you came from . neil : wait a minute . i understand exactly who i am . lily : okay , this is n't just for me . this is also for mattie and charlie , too . i want them to know who their great - grandparents are before it 's too late . neil : it 's already too late . lily : well , it does n't have to be . whatever the reason that made you guys drift apart , i mean , ca n't you just move past it ? neil : i do n't think so . lily : okay , i do n't believe that . look at us . i mean , we have managed to work through some seemingly insurmountable problems . because family is so important to us . so i find it hard to believe that you just closed the door on your mom and dad . you must want to know what happened to them . neil : i have no desire , none whatsoever , to find out what 's happening with my parents , where they 're living , if they 're living . lily : yeah , but family means everything to you . neil : there comes a point in your life where you have to accept that certain people were just not meant to be in each other 's lives . i reached that point a long , long time ago . i made peace with it . i hope you can understand that . lily : [ sighs ] i mean , i guess i can , but ... mattie : mommy , we need you ! neil : they need you . victor : do you have everything ? victoria : yeah , i -- i think i got everything . victor : good . victoria : you know , i may not be working here anymore , but we 're still family . victor : of course we are . victoria : [ sighs ] about summer 's engagement -- i do n't believe that you 're all zen about it . not for one second . victor : i think i 've made my position clear on it . but i 'm sure you have other things to worry about right now , like your new job . victoria : yeah , i know . i have to get back to work . victor : yeah , i need to get back to business , as well . okay ? billy : just because i 'm moving on with my life , that does n't mean it 's with someone else , and why do n't you do us all a favor and use this creative energy into something positive , like work on the new ad campaign instead of focusing on my personal life . cane : so , that , um , waitress in the club . she meant nothing to you , right ? billy : bethany was fun . she was a transition . but why do you care , cane ? i mean , seriously . we 're not buddies . cane : no , we 're not . you know what , we 're not even close to being buddies . you know , billy , i may not agree with jill 's methods , you know , but i do understand why she 's doing what 's she doing . you see , a little while back , lily and i went through a rough patch , and ultimately , it was our kids that brought us back together . 'cause you know something ? passion and lust , it 's just -- it 's a transitional distraction . that 's all it is . do you know what matters most in this world ? it 's family , billy . jill : it 's obvious that phyllis wants to make your marriage work . you have to be blind not to see the two of you together since she 's come back home , acting like a couple of newlyweds with all the public displays of affection . jack : yeah , that 's true . it has been great . i do n't know . just something feels strange . jill : about phyllis ? jack : yeah , it 's like she 's trying too hard . it 's like she 's being a little too cautious with me . one thing phyllis never is is cautious . jill : well , maybe she 's changing . jack : but why ? jill : i do n't know . she 's putting a lot of effort into your relationship , right ? she 's learning to compromise for the two of you , for your future . you should consider yourself lucky . it sounds to me like phyllis is coming to her senses . luca : your mother was n't saying anything wrong . we were just talking about what nick told me , that a man has to do right by a woman . phyllis : he was speaking very passionately . seems like a man in love . luca : that i am . summer : so , you 're feeling better about us getting married ? phyllis : much better . summer : [ laughs ] that 's amazing . that 's great . [ laughs ] and you know what ? grandpa was actually onboard , as well , so ... luca : hey , i told you ! summer : yes , you did ! you did . and , um ... with everybody being so cool about us getting married , um ... i 'm just feeling a lot more clear on what i want , and i know what i want to do now . luca : what , with the wedding ? summer : yes . look , i still want the dress and the flowers and the frills , but i do n't want to wait . i want to get married as soon as we can pull everything together . luca : done . mmm ! summer : [ giggles ] oh , and mom -- look , i 'm sorry , and i hope you understand why we 're not gon na do the whole long engagement thing , but i can still count on your help , right ? phyllis : definitely . summer : okay , good , because i want to get started planning today . phyllis : you just tell me what you need , honey . summer : okay . well , actually , we have n't even thought about what we need . phyllis : well , you talk . you discuss those details , all right ? you call me later . summer : okay . phyllis : okay . love you . summer : i love you . [ luca and summer chuckling ] phyllis : this wedding is on a fast track to hell . i am doing whatever i can to end this . even working with you . victor : now , i knew i would be hearing from you . i did n't expect it to be so soon . phyllis : well , surprise . we are going to move . now . victor : you mean , we 'd be working together ? phyllis : together .

nick : how did faith seem to you ? nikki : she told me how much she enjoyed her visit with her grandfather . but i 'm sure we missed her more than she missed us . nick : well , she was adamant that i take her to see him . which normally would n't have been an issue , but dad had just kicked us off the ranch before she got home from camp . nikki : how did you leave things with victor ? nick : well , he expects me to take her to see him whenever she wants . nikki : and will you ? nicholas , are you determined to keep that little girl away from her grandfather ? abby : hi , dad . victor : hello , sweetheart . abby : mwah ! victor : hello , baby . so , did you settle into your new home ? abby : i did . i love it there . it 's the perfect size . the security is amazing on the ranch . and my favorite part is i can drop by and say hello to you whenever i want . unless you want me to call first . victor : are you kidding me ? abby : [ laughs ] mwah ! victor : i love it when my daughter walks through the door . abby : oh , great . then that means i can give you an update on designdate -- my latest accomplishment . victor : let 's discuss that later . right now , i want to talk about something else , okay ? mariah : [ knocks ] hey . what are you doing out here ? tessa : just thinking . i needed the quiet . mariah : quiet is good . but you could 've quietly answered my text messages , and then i would n't have bugged you . hey , you 've been weird all day . is this about crystal ? tessa : ca n't i just be thinking ? i mean , like , maybe i was writing a song or ... mariah : tessa , did something happen ? tessa : it 's not about crystal , okay ? mariah : please do n't lie to me . i know you too well . and i 'm not getting off your case until you tell me what happened . tessa : i think i put my sister in more danger . sharon : paul , i 've been trying to get ahold of you for days . are you avoiding me ? paul : no , not at all . i was away on assignment . sharon : for less than a week . paul : right . and when i got back , i had dozens of phone calls to return , e - mails to answer , and all this paperwork to deal with , sharon . sharon : okay , well , i need to know what is going -- paul : what can i tell you ? christine has passed on all the information you provided about crystal . her possible involvement in the sex - trafficking ring . we have detectives on it , okay ? sharon : who have done nothing to find crystal or expose these criminals who are exploiting her . paul : [ sighs ] that 's really not -- sharon : do you know scott had to do your job for you ? he posed as a john in order to find her . paul : what did he do ? noah : hello . welcome to the underground . do you want to sit at the bar , or prefer a table ? alice : um ... a table , please . noah : okay . how 's this ? alice : it 's lovely . thank you . noah : uh , i 'll be right back with a menu . alice : okay . additional sponsorship hilary : so , these are your new digs ? cane : well , it 's only temporary , 'cause i do n't plan on being here that long . hilary : how do you like living here ? cane : well , you know i 'd rather be home with my wife and my kids . hilary : and i 'm sure that 's part of the reason why you invited me over . cane : i had my doubts when you told me that jordan was gon na move in on lily . hilary : [ gasps ] now you believe me . cane : yeah . hilary : why ? cane : i went over there last night to check in on them and he was there . he was sitting in my chair , with my family , laughing with my kids . hilary : i knew that jordan was seriously into lily . looks like his feelings have been reciprocated . cane : yeah . and watching it made me feel like i 'd been stabbed in the gut . hilary : sorry you had to see that , cane . cane : oh . see , i actually thought that 's what you wanted . lily : they 're beautiful ! jordan : ah , just a special thanks for dinner last night . lily : no , i should be giving you flowers . you 're the one who made that incredible meal . i had no idea you were a talented cook . well , a man 's got to eat , right ? [ both chuckle ] lily : it was really fun . and it was the first time i 've seen mattie and charlie engaged and happy since ... jordan : since the truth came out about cane ? lily : yeah . it was nice . you managed to take all of our minds off of things for a while . jordan : you make it sound like it was work . it was n't at all . they 're great kids , lily . lily : thank you . that 's sweet of you to say . jordan : i 'm just stating a fact . i have photographed hundreds of teenagers over my career , and they 're just ... nightmares . but charlie and mattie , they 're funny , they 're interesting , they 're smart . you 've done a great job raising them . lily : i mean , cane deserves credit , too . you know , after everything he 's done , he 's always been a good dad . jordan : i travel so much that i do n't have time to really see my relatives , so this was the first time that i got to have a family dinner in a while . i really enjoyed it . lily : yeah , it was fun . [ chuckles ] tessa : when that guy let me talk to crystal on the phone , she told me that she was okay . and that i should n't worry about her . mariah : but you did n't buy it . tessa : i could see it in her eyes , mariah . somebody made her lie to me . made her say that she was all right when she was obviously scared . mariah : and you 're sure ? tessa : i know that look . she was terrified . mariah : which is why you backed out of performing at the underground last night . tessa : i was afraid that i would fall apart onstage . and i needed that extra time to think of a way to help her . i just ... i do n't know what to do . mariah : well , that 's easy . you go to the cops . tessa : i can't . mariah : you have to . you can not leave your sister out there alone when she 's being forced -- tessa : hey , that guy , he told me that if i told anyone else , he would hurt crystal . mariah : tessa , that is just a scare tactic . tessa : but what if it 's not ? mariah : all right . so , you go to the cops , and maybe something bad happens to crystal . you do n't go ... and that is a definite . because she 's gon na suffer . mentally , physically . you have to go to the authorities . they have experience handling situations like this . they know how to avoid tipping off a crappy criminal . tessa : [ sighs ] i do n't know . mariah : why did you tell me about crystal and the trouble she 's in ? tessa : i knew i could trust you . mariah : exactly . and you can depend on me to help get you through this , which i am going to do . starting right now . we 're gon na go to the police station , and you 're gon na tell them the truth . paul : scott put himself at risk . sharon : someone had to do something . paul : okay , sharon , you need to tell me everything you know . sharon : scott met with a prostitute . she told him that there 's some woman who 's looking after crystal and the girls . that 's a lot more than the police have learned . paul : [ sighs ] do either of you have any idea of the dangerous game you are playing ? sharon : this is n't a game to me , and i 'm insulted that you would say that . crystal reached out to me for help . she 's alone . she 's scared . she 's desperate to get out of this situation . paul : these people are dangerous . sharon : exactly . and they 're holding crystal against her will . paul : and as i said , my detectives are working on it . sharon : but they have n't -- paul : look , just because i do n't update you all the time does n't mean that my team and i are n't doing everything we can to find this girl . sharon : and the photo i took ? there must be some -- paul : okay . i have the department 's photography expert working on it . he 's studying that photo from every angle to find any detail that could lead us to crystal 's whereabouts . we have got this handled , sharon . now , i insist you stay out of it . sharon : the hell i will . i will save this girl 's life with or without your help . nick : no , i do n't want to make a habit of giving in to faith 's demands where victor is concerned . nikki : that 's not the only thing that 's bothering you . nick : you 're right . look , i 'm nervous that dad could start using his visits with faith to turn my daughter against me . nikki : i 'm sorry you feel that way . nick : but you 're not denying it , are you , that dad would ever use that kind of manipulation . nikki : i know that he adores those grandchildren , and his feelings are sincere . nick : mom , dad loves us all . but it 's never stopped him from doing his damndest to control us . nikki : well , what are you doing , drawing this paranoid line in the sand ? you 're turning into your father , is what . nick : is it paranoid that i 'm basing my concerns on years of experience with dad ? nikki : do you really think that faith 's love for you is so flimsy that your father can make it disappear just by spending time with her ? you just want to retaliate . using your child to punish your father is the same tactic that you 're accusing him of doing . nick : i am just protecting my family . nikki : and that 's precisely the excuse he would use . nick : mom , look , the last thing i would ever want is for my kids to see any part of that man in me . for them to think that i would ever kick them out of my life because they disagree with me . nikki : that 's why i want you to think long and hard before you deny faith access to her grandfather . nick : dad thinks i 'm gon na cave . nikki : and that 's just going to make you lash out even more . you 're gon na say , `` well , you know , you ca n't show me . `` honey , i have been there a million times over the years . acting out of anger does n't work . you just end up feeling small . you 're never vindicated . nick : 'cause dad always strikes back harder . nikki : and when he does , you and i wo n't be the only ones affected . everybody we love will be hurt . victor : by the way , i sent buck to help with your move . abby : yes , which was very considerate of you . but by the time he got there , there was n't much left to do . you know , i was so excited about moving in , i - i got an early start . victor : you hired someone else , right ? abby : well , zack , yeah . victor : uh - huh . does that mean he has become more than a business partner ? abby : [ stammers ] well , we 're both really stoked about designdate . victor : and ? abby : and we 're just friends . victor : for now . abby : okay , um ... [ laughs ] does living here on the ranch , does that mean that i 'm gon na be getting a little bit more scrutiny from you in my personal life ? victor : well , what do you think ? abby : [ laughs ] victor : you bet i 'm gon na watch over you . i do n't care where you live . abby : well , dad , you do n't have anything to worry about . zack and i , we just started dating . it 's -- it 's nothing serious . victor : oh , yeah ? at least , nothing serious now , right ? you think that could change in the future ? hilary : you really think that i knew that jordan was having dinner with lily and the twins last night ? cane : well , you were taunting me about them , so it made me think that you knew they were going to be there . hilary : i was going off of instincts . i did n't know . cane : it is killing me to think that lily 's replaced me so soon . we 've only been separated a few days . hilary : [ scoffs ] i 'm sure she just grabbed on to the one guy who was standing around waiting for his shot . cane : okay . so , this is why you clued me in , 'cause you ca n't stand to think that jordan is more interested in lily than you . cheers . that must be a blow to your ego . hilary : it 's a blow because i care about him . [ sighs ] jordan and i , we were fine . until you screwed up your marriage and left an opening for him to swoop in . come on , cane . you had to have known that jordan wanted lily . cane : i picked up on it the first day he started at brash & sassy . hilary : [ scoffs ] and lily was the one who brought him in . cane : no , that was me . so i have no one to blame but myself . hilary : well , since we are both not the type of people that sit and wallow in misery , let 's get to it . you want lily back . cane : and you want jordan back . and it 's not 'cause you love him , but it 's 'cause you ca n't stand the thought that you lost him to my wife . hilary : who cares what my motives are ? we can help each other . cane : really ? how we gon na do that ? lily does n't believe a word that comes out of your mouth , so you ca n't persuade her to take me back . and , well , jordan , he does n't want you , even with all your , uh ... your assets . hilary : fine . so you want to just give up on lily , on your family ? cane : no . hilary : so then drop the self - pity and the misplaced anger . it is not attractive . and go and find your wife and remind her why she fell in love with you in the first place . because lily 's not waiting around . and neither is jordan . jordan : i was just telling your mom , i had a blast with you and charlie last night . lily : yeah . look what he brought us to say thank you . they 're pretty , right ? do you want to find a vase in the kitchen , put them in some water ? mattie : sure . lily : thank you . jordan : hey , i should get going . lily : okay . yeah . well , thank you again for dinner and the flowers , . jordan : [ sighs ] my pleasure . truly . lily : we should do it again sometime . jordan : i 'd love that . lily : [ giggles ] all right . bye . jordan : all right . see you . lily : you could n't find the vase ? mattie : what 's with you and jordan ? lily : [ scoffs ] uh , what 's with you and the tone ? mattie : i 'm just asking a question . lily : well , you certainly seemed impressed with him last night . mattie : i was being cordial . and he was supposed to be here for charlie , to discuss football and photography . lily : yeah . charlie invited him , but -- mattie : i just heard you invite him for dinner again . and i saw the way you two looked at each other just now . he gave you flowers , mom . geez , you just kicked dad out , and you 've already got a new boyfriend ? lily : [ exhales sharply ] okay . um , i understand that we 're all going through a rough time right now -- mattie : answer the question . lily : you know better than to talk to me that way . mattie : sorry . lily : jordan is not my boyfriend , okay ? he 's a colleague and friend who 's helping me get through a very rough time with your dad . mattie : then you 're being a hypocrite . lily : [ sighs ] mattie ... mattie : you wo n't let me see reed , and he 's my friend , helping me get through this . lily : i told you to dial things back 'cause of the tension between your dad and victoria . i do n't want that bouncing back on you . do you understand ? mattie : i 'm going to erin 's . i 'm gon na have dinner there . i 'll be home before curfew . lily : [ sighs ] mattie , come on . mattie ! sharon : this is personal for me . paul : [ scoffs ] oh , i 'd say that 's obvious . which has made you more of a hindrance than a help in this investigation . sharon : that 's not true . paul : sharon , nothing is to be gained by you and scott stumbling in the middle of this , putting your own safety in jeopardy . right along with this girl . sharon : i promised crystal that i would help her . paul : and i told you that my team and i are doing everything we possibly can so you can keep your promise . these kind of cases take time and patience . sharon : we do n't have time ! [ knock on door ] paul : yes ? what is it ? mariah : hi . i 'm , uh , sorry to interrupt . sharon : what is it ? what happened ? what 's wrong ? mariah : tessa has information on crystal . tessa : he was a big guy . he had a beard , and it was graying at the chin , and short , dark hair . sharon : that 's the same guy . that 's what he looked like , the man that i saw leaving here with two prostitutes . paul : okay . so , tessa , you had a video chat with your sister . tessa : yes . paul : do you remember anything about the room she was in ? something in the background , or maybe a picture on the wall , or anything at all , really ? tessa : no , i did n't see any details . all i could see was my sister and the fear in her eyes . no matter what she said , i know she 's being held against her will . paul : okay , but you do n't remember anything else ? like a -- a train or a siren ? people talking in the background , or maybe music ? tessa : i would 've remembered music . but there was n't anything . paul : okay . you 've done really well . thank you . and when we find your sister , it 's going to be because you had the courage to come forward with this information . tessa : it was actually mariah who pushed me to talk to you . paul : thank you , mariah . mariah : yeah , it was a no - brainer . we need help from the pros on this one . paul : okay . so , i 'm gon na go update my detectives . but if anybody has any contact at all with crystal , or anyone else connected with this , you come straight to me . is that understood ? tessa : yeah . paul : okay . nikki : tough shopping trip , huh ? chelsea : uh , a little bit . thank you . nick : sure . chelsea : sort of . i just ... i wanted to make sure i got the right snacks , and the food that faith likes , but then i - i did n't get the right flavor , and it -- i -- [ sighs ] i just want her to be happy here . nikki : oh , you 're going out of your way to make sure faith feels at home . i appreciate that . chelsea : i 'm happy to do it . nikki : um , do you mind if we have a moment alone ? nick : uh ... chelsea : sure . nick : yeah , no . i 'll go check on the kids . chelsea : okay . so , are you gon na give me tips on faith 's likes and dislikes ? i could really use them . nikki : well , actually , i 'm worried about you . chelsea : why ? no . no , nick and faith and christian , they 're the ones that have been ... nikki : displaced ? i mean , forget the fact that you have suddenly inherited my son , a strong - willed 10-year - old , and a toddler as your roommates . chelsea : oh , it 's -- it 's fine . nikki : well , honey , it has to be disruptive . chelsea : uh , it 's been a little challenging , but i 'm optimistic . nikki : you do n't have to sugarcoat things for me . chelsea : i 'm not . i swear . nikki : blended families are difficult in the best of situations . and i know you 're being a very good sport , but ... i do n't know . i 'm just concerned that faith in particular might put some pressure on you and ... your relationship . chelsea : i love him . nikki : oh , honey , i know you do . chelsea : and we 're both committed to , you know , um ... we 're gon na make this work . nikki : you are . i know you are . victor : you 're a woman with much love to give . and who wants much love in return , right ?

abby : 'cause it 's such a dad thing to say . you 're very sweet . victor : what i 'm saying to you is , that punk does anything to you ... abby : [ laughs ] well , dad , you are way ahead of me , okay ? victor : mm - hmm . abby : i 'm not even thinking about anything serious , not this soon after my divorce . zack is ... he 's someone to hang out with . we have a lot of the same interests . he 's fun and attentive . but i 'm definitely not ready to say that he 's the one . victor : mm - hmm . is that gon na change in the future ? abby : so you want a definitive answer . okay , well ... i do n't know . i do n't know if this is gon na lead anywhere . but if it does , i 'm not gon na be afraid . i 'm excited to see where it might lead . charlie : oh , hey , mom . lily : hey . charlie : [ sighs ] lily : so , how did tryouts go ?

lily : no , i -- i have n't checked my phone . cane : what 's wrong ? `` the young and the restless `` will continue . sharon : crystal 's your sister . mariah : here you go . tessa : thanks . sharon : why did n't you tell me sooner ? tessa : i 'm dating your son . living in your house . i mean , what were you gon na think about me ... with a sister who ended up the way she did ? mariah : sharon would never judge you . sharon : there is no judgment . crystal is a victim , and i admire her . you know , most people who have been through something like that , they do n't even have any hope left to ask for help . but crystal does . tessa : who are you ? caring this much about some prostitute when you live in a big , beautiful house on a ranch ? sharon : i 'm someone who grew up poor , with a single mom . and when i got pregnant with mariah and her twin sister , i was a teenager . mariah : do you regret that ? sharon : of course not . i can never regret having you and your sister . but there were other things , choices that i made when i was scared and confused ... much like how you and your sister feel right now . but , tessa , do n't ever feel ashamed , or afraid to come to me . i 'd like to think that i 'd be able to help you . tessa : i 've never had anybody to count on except for me . mariah : now you sound like me . or ... used - to - be me . because sharon changed all that . my mom taught me what it was like to have someone in your life who would always , always have your back . tessa : i 've never had that . nobody ever looked out for me . but ... i wo n't let my sister down . sharon : how about this . mariah and i , we 'll be your family from now on . and we will help you find crystal . together . chelsea : how 's faith ? nick : she 's good . you know , she 's , uh ... busy texting all her friends from camp , barely making any eye contact . kind of like you right now . chelsea : [ laughs ] i saved you a seat . nick : mm - hmm . right here ?

[ sighs ] i mean , i was gone all the time . working crummy jobs , hanging around bars , caught up in my own little dramas with a bunch of no - good men . i mean , my mother was stuck taking care of cassie . nick : how is millie doing ? alice : she 's fine . she 's at a doctor 's appointment . a friend drove her . that poor , sweet little kid missed out on so much because of my own stupid selfishness .

nikki : she told me how much she enjoyed her visit with her grandfather . but i 'm sure we missed her more than she missed us . nick : well , she was adamant that i take her to see him . which normally would n't have been an issue , but dad had just kicked us off the ranch before she got home from camp . nikki : how did you leave things with victor ? nick : well , he expects me to take her to see him whenever she wants . nikki : and will you ? nicholas , are you determined to keep that little girl away from her grandfather ? abby : hi , dad . victor : hello , sweetheart . abby : mwah ! victor : hello , baby . so , did you settle into your new home ? abby : i did . i love it there . it 's the perfect size . the security is amazing on the ranch . and my favorite part is i can drop by and say hello to you whenever i want . unless you want me to call first . victor : are you kidding me ? abby : [ laughs ] mwah ! victor : i love it when my daughter walks through the door . abby : oh , great . then that means i can give you an update on designdate -- my latest accomplishment . victor : let 's discuss that later . right now , i want to talk about something else , okay ? mariah : [ knocks ] hey . what are you doing out here ? tessa : just thinking . i needed the quiet . mariah : quiet is good . but you could 've quietly answered my text messages , and then i would n't have bugged you . hey , you 've been weird all day . is this about crystal ?

cane : i went over there last night to check in on them and he was there . he was sitting in my chair , with my family , laughing with my kids . hilary : i knew that jordan was seriously into lily . looks like his feelings have been reciprocated . cane : yeah . and watching it made me feel like i 'd been stabbed in the gut . hilary : sorry you had to see that , cane . cane : oh . see , i actually thought that 's what you wanted . lily : they 're beautiful ! jordan : ah , just a special thanks for dinner last night . lily : no , i should be giving you flowers . you 're the one who made that incredible meal . i had no idea you were a talented cook . well , a man 's got to eat , right ? [ both chuckle ] lily : it was really fun . and it was the first time i 've seen mattie and charlie engaged and happy since ... jordan : since the truth came out about cane ? lily : yeah . it was nice . you managed to take all of our minds off of things for a while . jordan : you make it sound like it was work . it was n't at all . they 're great kids , lily . lily : thank you . that 's sweet of you to say . jordan : i 'm just stating a fact . i have photographed hundreds of teenagers over my career , and they 're just ... nightmares . but charlie and mattie , they 're funny , they 're interesting , they 're smart . you 've done a great job raising them . lily : i mean , cane deserves credit , too . you know , after everything he 's done , he 's always been a good dad . jordan : i travel so much that i do n't have time to really see my relatives , so this was the first time that i got to have a family dinner in a while . i really enjoyed it . lily : yeah , it was fun . [ chuckles ] tessa : when that guy let me talk to crystal on the phone , she told me that she was okay . and that i should n't worry about her . mariah : but you did n't buy it . tessa : i could see it in her eyes , mariah . somebody made her lie to me . made her say that she was all right when she was obviously scared . mariah : and you 're sure ? tessa : i know that look . she was terrified . mariah : which is why you backed out of performing at the underground last night . tessa : i was afraid that i would fall apart onstage . and i needed that extra time to think of a way to help her . i just ... i do n't know what to do . mariah : well , that 's easy . you go to the cops . tessa : i can't . mariah : you have to . you can not leave your sister out there alone when she 's being forced -- tessa : hey , that guy , he told me that if i told anyone else , he would hurt crystal . mariah : tessa , that is just a scare tactic . tessa : but what if it 's not ? mariah : all right . so , you go to the cops , and maybe something bad happens to crystal . you do n't go ... and that is a definite . because she 's gon na suffer . mentally , physically . you have to go to the authorities . they have experience handling situations like this . they know how to avoid tipping off a crappy criminal . tessa : [ sighs ] i do n't know . mariah : why did you tell me about crystal and the trouble she 's in ? tessa : i knew i could trust you . mariah : exactly . and you can depend on me to help get you through this , which i am going to do . starting right now . we 're gon na go to the police station , and you 're gon na tell them the truth . paul : scott put himself at risk . sharon : someone had to do something . paul : okay , sharon , you need to tell me everything you know . sharon : scott met with a prostitute . she told him that there 's some woman who 's looking after crystal and the girls . that 's a lot more than the police have learned . paul : [ sighs ] do either of you have any idea of the dangerous game you are playing ? sharon : this is n't a game to me , and i 'm insulted that you would say that . crystal reached out to me for help . she 's alone . she 's scared . she 's desperate to get out of this situation . paul : these people are dangerous . sharon : exactly . and they 're holding crystal against her will . paul : and as i said , my detectives are working on it . sharon : but they have n't -- paul : look , just because i do n't update you all the time does n't mean that my team and i are n't doing everything we can to find this girl . sharon : and the photo i took ? there must be some -- paul : okay . i have the department 's photography expert working on it . he 's studying that photo from every angle to find any detail that could lead us to crystal 's whereabouts . we have got this handled , sharon . now , i insist you stay out of it . sharon : the hell i will . i will save this girl 's life with or without your help . nick : no , i do n't want to make a habit of giving in to faith 's demands where victor is concerned . nikki : that 's not the only thing that 's bothering you . nick : you 're right . look , i 'm nervous that dad could start using his visits with faith to turn my daughter against me . nikki : i 'm sorry you feel that way . nick : but you 're not denying it , are you , that dad would ever use that kind of manipulation . nikki : i know that he adores those grandchildren , and his feelings are sincere . nick : mom , dad loves us all . but it 's never stopped him from doing his damndest to control us . nikki : well , what are you doing , drawing this paranoid line in the sand ? you 're turning into your father , is what . nick : is it paranoid that i 'm basing my concerns on years of experience with dad ? nikki : do you really think that faith 's love for you is so flimsy that your father can make it disappear just by spending time with her ? you just want to retaliate . using your child to punish your father is the same tactic that you 're accusing him of doing . nick : i am just protecting my family . nikki : and that 's precisely the excuse he would use . nick : mom , look , the last thing i would ever want is for my kids to see any part of that man in me . for them to think that i would ever kick them out of my life because they disagree with me . nikki : that 's why i want you to think long and hard before you deny faith access to her grandfather . nick : dad thinks i 'm gon na cave . nikki : and that 's just going to make you lash out even more . you 're gon na say , `` well , you know , you ca n't show me . `` honey , i have been there a million times over the years . acting out of anger does n't work . you just end up feeling small . you 're never vindicated . nick : 'cause dad always strikes back harder . nikki : and when he does , you and i wo n't be the only ones affected . everybody we love will be hurt . victor : by the way , i sent buck to help with your move . abby : yes , which was very considerate of you . but by the time he got there , there was n't much left to do . you know , i was so excited about moving in , i - i got an early start . victor : you hired someone else , right ? abby : well , zack , yeah . victor : uh - huh . does that mean he has become more than a business partner ? abby : [ stammers ] well , we 're both really stoked about designdate . victor : and ? abby : and we 're just friends . victor : for now . abby : okay , um ... [ laughs ] does living here on the ranch , does that mean that i 'm gon na be getting a little bit more scrutiny from you in my personal life ? victor : well , what do you think ? abby : [ laughs ] victor : you bet i 'm gon na watch over you . i do n't care where you live . abby : well , dad , you do n't have anything to worry about . zack and i , we just started dating . it 's -- it 's nothing serious . victor : oh , yeah ? at least , nothing serious now , right ? you think that could change in the future ? hilary : you really think that i knew that jordan was having dinner with lily and the twins last night ? cane : well , you were taunting me about them , so it made me think that you knew they were going to be there . hilary : i was going off of instincts . i did n't know . cane : it is killing me to think that lily 's replaced me so soon . we 've only been separated a few days . hilary : [ scoffs ] i 'm sure she just grabbed on to the one guy who was standing around waiting for his shot . cane : okay . so , this is why you clued me in , 'cause you ca n't stand to think that jordan is more interested in lily than you . cheers . that must be a blow to your ego . hilary : it 's a blow because i care about him . [ sighs ] jordan and i , we were fine . until you screwed up your marriage and left an opening for him to swoop in . come on , cane . you had to have known that jordan wanted lily . cane : i picked up on it the first day he started at brash & sassy . hilary : [ scoffs ] and lily was the one who brought him in . cane : no , that was me . so i have no one to blame but myself . hilary : well , since we are both not the type of people that sit and wallow in misery , let 's get to it . you want lily back . cane : and you want jordan back . and it 's not 'cause you love him , but it 's 'cause you ca n't stand the thought that you lost him to my wife . hilary : who cares what my motives are ? we can help each other . cane : really ? how we gon na do that ? lily does n't believe a word that comes out of your mouth , so you ca n't persuade her to take me back . and , well , jordan , he does n't want you , even with all your , uh ... your assets . hilary : fine . so you want to just give up on lily , on your family ? cane : no . hilary : so then drop the self - pity and the misplaced anger . it is not attractive . and go and find your wife and remind her why she fell in love with you in the first place . because lily 's not waiting around . and neither is jordan . jordan : i was just telling your mom , i had a blast with you and charlie last night . lily : yeah . look what he brought us to say thank you . they 're pretty , right ? do you want to find a vase in the kitchen , put them in some water ? mattie : sure . lily : thank you . jordan : hey , i should get going . lily : okay . yeah . well , thank you again for dinner and the flowers , . jordan : [ sighs ] my pleasure . truly . lily : we should do it again sometime . jordan : i 'd love that . lily : [ giggles ] all right . bye . jordan : all right . see you . lily : you could n't find the vase ? mattie : what 's with you and jordan ? lily : [ scoffs ] uh , what 's with you and the tone ? mattie : i 'm just asking a question . lily : well , you certainly seemed impressed with him last night . mattie : i was being cordial . and he was supposed to be here for charlie , to discuss football and photography . lily : yeah . charlie invited him , but -- mattie : i just heard you invite him for dinner again . and i saw the way you two looked at each other just now . he gave you flowers , mom . geez , you just kicked dad out , and you 've already got a new boyfriend ? lily : [ exhales sharply ] okay . um , i understand that we 're all going through a rough time right now -- mattie : answer the question . lily : you know better than to talk to me that way . mattie : sorry . lily : jordan is not my boyfriend , okay ? he 's a colleague and friend who 's helping me get through a very rough time with your dad . mattie : then you 're being a hypocrite . lily : [ sighs ] mattie ... mattie : you wo n't let me see reed , and he 's my friend , helping me get through this . lily : i told you to dial things back 'cause of the tension between your dad and victoria . i do n't want that bouncing back on you . do you understand ? mattie : i 'm going to erin 's . i 'm gon na have dinner there . i 'll be home before curfew . lily : [ sighs ] mattie , come on . mattie ! sharon : this is personal for me . paul : [ scoffs ] oh , i 'd say that 's obvious . which has made you more of a hindrance than a help in this investigation . sharon : that 's not true . paul : sharon , nothing is to be gained by you and scott stumbling in the middle of this , putting your own safety in jeopardy . right along with this girl . sharon : i promised crystal that i would help her . paul : and i told you that my team and i are doing everything we possibly can so you can keep your promise . these kind of cases take time and patience . sharon : we do n't have time ! [ knock on door ] paul : yes ? what is it ? mariah : hi . i 'm , uh , sorry to interrupt . sharon : what is it ? what happened ? what 's wrong ? mariah : tessa has information on crystal . tessa : he was a big guy . he had a beard , and it was graying at the chin , and short , dark hair . sharon : that 's the same guy . that 's what he looked like , the man that i saw leaving here with two prostitutes . paul : okay . so , tessa , you had a video chat with your sister . tessa : yes . paul : do you remember anything about the room she was in ? something in the background , or maybe a picture on the wall , or anything at all , really ? tessa : no , i did n't see any details . all i could see was my sister and the fear in her eyes . no matter what she said , i know she 's being held against her will . paul : okay , but you do n't remember anything else ? like a -- a train or a siren ? people talking in the background , or maybe music ? tessa : i would 've remembered music . but there was n't anything . paul : okay . you 've done really well . thank you . and when we find your sister , it 's going to be because you had the courage to come forward with this information . tessa : it was actually mariah who pushed me to talk to you . paul : thank you , mariah . mariah : yeah , it was a no - brainer . we need help from the pros on this one . paul : okay . so , i 'm gon na go update my detectives . but if anybody has any contact at all with crystal , or anyone else connected with this , you come straight to me . is that understood ? tessa : yeah . paul : okay . nikki : tough shopping trip , huh ? chelsea : uh , a little bit . thank you . nick : sure . chelsea : sort of . i just ... i wanted to make sure i got the right snacks , and the food that faith likes , but then i - i did n't get the right flavor , and it -- i -- [ sighs ] i just want her to be happy here . nikki : oh , you 're going out of your way to make sure faith feels at home . i appreciate that . chelsea : i 'm happy to do it . nikki : um , do you mind if we have a moment alone ? nick : uh ... chelsea : sure . nick : yeah , no . i 'll go check on the kids . chelsea : okay . so , are you gon na give me tips on faith 's likes and dislikes ? i could really use them . nikki : well , actually , i 'm worried about you . chelsea : why ? no . no , nick and faith and christian , they 're the ones that have been ... nikki : displaced ? i mean , forget the fact that you have suddenly inherited my son , a strong - willed 10-year - old , and a toddler as your roommates . chelsea : oh , it 's -- it 's fine . nikki : well , honey , it has to be disruptive . chelsea : uh , it 's been a little challenging , but i 'm optimistic . nikki : you do n't have to sugarcoat things for me . chelsea : i 'm not . i swear . nikki : blended families are difficult in the best of situations . and i know you 're being a very good sport , but ... i do n't know . i 'm just concerned that faith in particular might put some pressure on you and ... your relationship . chelsea : i love him . nikki : oh , honey , i know you do . chelsea : and we 're both committed to , you know , um ... we 're gon na make this work . nikki : you are . i know you are . victor : you 're a woman with much love to give . and who wants much love in return , right ?

[ scoffs ] you do n't even think that i should have a say on where we live , for god 's sake . devon : honey , i apologized for that . and originally i wanted this place to be a surprise . hilary : no , i got that when you marched me in here and you proclaimed that this is our new home . devon : i know we 're past this 'cause you love it . you 've told me that . hilary : yeah , that is besides the point . okay , you bought this place to appease me , devon , so that i would -- i would keep quiet and i would n't make any waves . i would behave the way that you want me to behave . i will say the things that you want me to say . i feel like i 'm walking on eggshells all of the time , trying not to upset you . do you have any idea how stressful that is ? and i am supposed to be your wife ! i 'm supposed to be your equal ! but it does n't feel that way at all ! devon : sweetheart , how do you expect me to support and trust you when you lie to me and you run off and do crazy things like have an agent make up stories so that i 'll grovel at your feet and give you what you want ? i mean , it worked this time , but -- hilary : no , no , not really . [ sighs ] devon , i know the real reason why you do n't trust me . our relationship , it began when i cheated on your father with you . that is the foundation of our relationship , so i get it . naturally you assume that i 'm gon na do the same thing to you . so it 's still there , all of that uncertainty . but you want to know what the sad part is ? after ... [ sighs ] ... every single thing rotten thing that i 've done ... i do n't think that i deserve your trust . [ scoffs ] but i love you . i love you so much , devon . and all of this , every single thing , it 's all gon na erode us from the inside out if we let it , so i 'm fighting . i am fighting for us , devon . i just -- i do n't understand how you ca n't see that . devon : sweetheart . honey . i see you , okay ? listen to me . lying is not the answer . all right ? hilary : [ sighs ] devon : no more of that . victor : `` and the angel said unto them , ' fear not , for behold , i bring you good tidings of great joy , which shall be to all people , for unto you is born this day in the city of david a savior , which is christ the lord . and this shall be a sign unto you . you shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes , lying in a manger . and suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising god and saying , ' glory to god in the highest , and on earth peace and good will toward men .

[ sighs ] where we are right now , i 'm grateful for . we 're -- we 're adults . we 're raising our kids together , and that means the world to me . victoria 's made it clear that she does n't have room for me in her life that way . she does n't feel that way as far as i can tell , and ... jill : [ sighs ] billy : and i 'm okay with that . i 'm content to be friends with her right now . jill : you do n't mean that , billy . billy : yes , i do . and i do n't want anything to mess that up . so , back to my christmas miracle i was talking about . it 's really the only thing that i want this christmas . jill : ask . it 's yours . billy : stop interfering in our relationship . we got to figure this out on our own , okay ? jill : all right , i 'll do it . billy : really ? you 're not just saying that ? jill : no . you have my word . nikki : oh , victoria . i 'm so glad you 're here , honey . victoria : thanks , mom . me , too . in case i have n't said so , merry christmas . i just ca n't remember after the day i 've had . nikki : i 've had a few of those myself . merry christmas , darling . victoria : thanks , mom . nikki : how you feeling ? victoria : uh , i 'm feeling a little outnumbered by my kids right now . nick : yeah , i know the feeling . victoria : yeah ? you know , it 's like i can manage a company and run a whole business with million - dollar budgets , but getting my kids out the door is another story . nick : yeah , it really takes it out of you . victoria : yeah , sometimes i feel like i can barely keep up , you know ? like i 'm , uh ... nick : overwhelmed ? nikki : listen , you two have so much going on , and you do it beautifully . victoria : well , some days are better than others , mom . nikki : okay . [ chuckles ] nick : well , at least you can count on billy . hilary : and i asked the caterers to put some leftovers in the fridge for you just in case you want a little snack later . devon : hilary , will you knock it off , please ? hilary : [ sighs ] what is your problem ? why are you in such a mood all of a sudden ? devon : why do n't you take a guess ? hilary : [ scoffs ] i have no idea . devon : you know all those job offers that you had for the shows ? hilary : yeah . what about them ? devon : they never existed . hilary : devon -- devon : wow . wow , really ? hilary : okay , who told you this ? devon : who told me ? that 's your response ? not an explanation or an apology ? hilary : it was obviously someone who had it in for me . devon : honey , it does n't matter who told me . i just gave you everything that you wanted . i - i gave you the show back . i made you executive producer , gon na give you the pay , control of the content . i bought you this home . why did n't you just come to me and talk to me like an adult ? you knew i was willing to work with you , get over my concerns , meet you halfway . i mean , why did you lie to me ? i trusted you . hilary : no , you have n't , devon . you 've never trusted me . [ sighs ] you want to know what my problem is ? you hold the purse strings . you are my boss . you make all of the big decisions , usually without even consulting me , and i 'm just supposed to sit back , keep quiet , and just go with the flow . you manage me , devon . you just stood there and you listed all of the things that you 've given me . [ scoffs ] you do n't even think that i should have a say on where we live , for god 's sake . devon : honey , i apologized for that . and originally i wanted this place to be a surprise . hilary : no , i got that when you marched me in here and you proclaimed that this is our new home . devon : i know we 're past this 'cause you love it . you 've told me that . hilary : yeah , that is besides the point . okay , you bought this place to appease me , devon , so that i would -- i would keep quiet and i would n't make any waves . i would behave the way that you want me to behave . i will say the things that you want me to say . i feel like i 'm walking on eggshells all of the time , trying not to upset you . do you have any idea how stressful that is ? and i am supposed to be your wife ! i 'm supposed to be your equal ! but it does n't feel that way at all ! devon : sweetheart , how do you expect me to support and trust you when you lie to me and you run off and do crazy things like have an agent make up stories so that i 'll grovel at your feet and give you what you want ? i mean , it worked this time , but -- hilary : no , no , not really . [ sighs ] devon , i know the real reason why you do n't trust me . our relationship , it began when i cheated on your father with you . that is the foundation of our relationship , so i get it . naturally you assume that i 'm gon na do the same thing to you . so it 's still there , all of that uncertainty . but you want to know what the sad part is ? after ... [ sighs ] ... every single thing rotten thing that i 've done ... i do n't think that i deserve your trust . [ scoffs ] but i love you . i love you so much , devon . and all of this , every single thing , it 's all gon na erode us from the inside out if we let it , so i 'm fighting . i am fighting for us , devon . i just -- i do n't understand how you ca n't see that . devon : sweetheart . honey . i see you , okay ? listen to me . lying is not the answer . all right ? hilary : [ sighs ] devon : no more of that . victor : `` and the angel said unto them , ' fear not , for behold , i bring you good tidings of great joy , which shall be to all people , for unto you is born this day in the city of david a savior , which is christ the lord . and this shall be a sign unto you . you shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes , lying in a manger . and suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising god and saying , ' glory to god in the highest , and on earth peace and good will toward men .

[ previously_on ] jack : dina is coming home today . we 've all agreed we want to take advantage of the time we have left with her . jill : how is the new partnership coming ? lily : it 's great . we were just talking about how similar our visions are . adam : i wanted to talk about my mother 's farm in kansas . i 'm afraid to say the property 's in pretty sad shape . i even ran into an old friend -- alyssa montalvo . did you ever meet her or her family on one of your visits ? victor : does n't ring a bell . alyssa : if things went down the way you think they did , that means both our fathers killed someone . victor : hi , sweetheart . nikki : hi , darling . victor : mm . nikki : mm . victor : so glad you could join me for lunch . there you go . nikki : me , too . thank you . victor : there you go . now ... there 's something ... i have to tell you . nikki : i hate to ruin your surprise , but i already know . victor : how ?

victor : yeah . nikki : where are you going ? victor : kansas . nikki : hope 's farm ? victor : yeah . nikki : why ? why now ? victor : [ breathes deeply ] [ cellphone rings ] adam : alyssa . alyssa : hi . i was n't sure if you 'd pick up . adam : well , i 'm surprised to hear from you so soon . i hope you have n't given up already . you know , if our fathers are guilty of murder , we have to keep investigating . the truth is gon na be out there somewhere . alyssa : it may be closer than you think . victoria : [ sighs ] [ door opens in distance ] [ footsteps approach ] nick : how 's the patient ?

lily : no . jill : i do not believe you , billy . billy : hi , mom . jill : how could you do something like this ? lily : oh , good . what have you done now ? billy : i - i - i do n't know . what did i do now ? jill : oh , please . the `` zombie nation `` podcast ? billy : what about it ? jill : the host just tweeted that chancellor 's media division bought out their parent company . what were you thinking ? billy : okay , hol -- i - i - i do n't know what you 're talking about . lily : okay . billy is not responsible for that . i am . jack : mother , are you comfortable ? is -- is -- is this maybe too much sun ?

ashley : it 's impossible . i mean , she does n't even know where she is right now . traci : okay , guys . remember , the people at the memory - care facility told us it was gon na be just like this . around - the - clock nursing is a godsend , but if we are really going to honor our commitment to making the rest of dina 's life the best it can be here at home , then the time that we spend with her has to be about her . jack : yeah . you know what ?

victoria : it 's gone ... possibly for good . jill : you purchased a podcast - production company without consulting anybody ? billy : `` zombie nation `` ? that 's a hell of a name . lily : it is , actually , and it gets a lot of attention , which i think you both are proving . jill : be that as it may , lily , you have a partner ! you have a boss ! for you to make a unilateral decision on a purchase of that magnitude -- lily : jill , jill , you 're misinformed . jill : excuse me ? lily : i have n't purchased anything . i have n't even discussed terms . jill : then explain the tweet , please . lily : all i did was i made a call and i set up an exploratory meeting , so i 'm assuming the podcast host must have overheard and jumped the gun . but it 's a random tweet -- jill : yeah , it 's a random tweet that was totally misunderstood . lily : okay . i will fix this , alright ? i will do damage control . but , jill , i 'm telling you , this could be great for us . the content they generate is right in our wheelhouse , and i think that once billy can see the lineup , he 'll agree with me . jill : so ... i suppose you 're gon na say it 's a brilliant idea and i should just stay out of this . billy : [ sighs ] no . actually ... i 'm not gon na say that . lily : what ? billy : it 's an entire entity that i 've never heard of , and i consider myself pretty plugged in , so i say we pass . it 's too big of a risk . adam : alright . you have evidence already ? alyssa : nothing concrete , but i do have a strong lead . adam : okay . well , lay it on me . alyssa : so , i met with the man who was county coroner when my father died -- the one who got the autopsy report stating that the injuries my dad sustained when he fell from the barn loft were the cause of death . adam : did you get him to admit that he lied ? alyssa : nothing so drastic . but for someone who performed the autopsy so many years ago , he had a visceral reaction when i brought it up . adam : really ? so , what is your reporter gut telling you ? alyssa : that there 's more to the story and this guy knows a lot more than he 's saying . adam : okay . well , stay on him . alyssa : oh , do n't worry . adam : look , i 've compiled a list of shell companies that newman 's used over the years . i 'm gon na send it to you . maybe you can find some trace of a bribe that victor might have paid him . alyssa : i 'll look into it . adam : and this coroner -- offer him money , protection , whatever it takes , because if victor 's bought him off once , he can be bought off again . alyssa : paying a source ? that 's a pretty big no - no . adam : alyssa ... this is not about some run - of - the - mill exposé . it 's deeply personal to both of us . alyssa : i 'm not paying anyone for info . not going to happen . adam : fine . i - i get it . i 'm just , um -- i 'm just anxious to get to the truth . alyssa : if our suspicions turn out to be accurate , my father killed for money . your father killed to protect you . i 've always focused on my career , nikki : victor , i do n't mean to argue with you . i - i just do n't understand your burning need to drop everything and go to kansas . victor : sweetheart , when i bought the farm for hope , i promised that i keep it up , okay ? now adam tells me it 's falling apart , so i need to assess the situation . nikki : yes , it is your property to take care of . that 's not what i 'm questioning . victor : what are you questioning ? nikki : why you feel compelled to go there personally . i mean , surely there must be someone local you can trust to make a few repairs . victor : there 's an old caretaker called george , and i think this job is getting too much for him . that 's all . nikki : well , then hire more help . write a check and be done with it . victor : sweetheart . nikki : victor , your family needs you here . i need you here . victor : i understand that . and i will be back . wo n't be long . but i need to look at the situation . that 's all . nikki : alright . have someone drive out to the farm , take photos , and text them to you . victor : sweetheart . nikki : darling , save yourself a 1,000-mile round trip . victor : you are not gon na talk me out of it , okay ? nikki : you have been agitated ever since adam came to the ranch carrying on about his trip . is there something you 're not telling me ? victor : nonsense . i 'm going to the farm , inspect it , and that 's it . okay ? chelsea : seems like alyssa 's on the right track . do n't you think ? adam : it 's circumstantial . [ sighs ] there is not much of a case . chelsea : i 'm surprised you 're not more excited about this . what happened to the adam who could n't wait to get the goods on victor and be named c.e.o . in exchange for his silence ? adam : it was one of the last things that alyssa said to me about my father and hers . it just kind of gave me pause . if victor did kill a.j . , i mean , did n't he do it out of love ? protect my mother and me from a dangerous threat ? and now i 'm gon na use that against him for purely selfish reasons . i mean , i know victor would do the same to me , and worse , in a heartbeat . chelsea : then why are you conflicted ? adam : because if this ever got out , the consequences would be massive . and the rest of the world -- they may not understand why victor took this man 's life , but i sure would . chelsea : and you 'd feel guilt for that ? adam : [ chuckles softly ] [ sighing ] ohh . hope adams , she was , um -- she was a saint . you know , she persevered through her whole life totally blind ... only to have her husband murdered over a debt she knew nothing about , so ... she must have been terrified we 'd be next . for her to go to victor for anything ... my mother just -- she deserved so much more . chelsea : are you having second thoughts about this ? adam : [ sighs ] chelsea : because if you are ... we do n't have to go through with it . it 's whatever you want . adam : well , given my sudden inconvenient attack of conscience ... am i willing to bury my father 's crime and walk away with nothing ? victor wins again . jack : [ exhales sharply ] [ door opens ] ashley : the nurse is getting dina settled back into bed . traci : i do not know what 's worse ... seeing that glimmer of responsiveness and then watching it just fade away or -- ashley : not seeing any sign at all of the woman that she used to be . either way , it 's really heartbreaking , is n't it ? jack : now , wait . wait a minute . being in this house has triggered something . she remembered mamie . ashley : well , i wish i could take some kind of comfort in that , jack , but -- i 'm sorry -- i can't . i 'm afraid that we 've had our last lucid conversation with our mother . jack : [ groans ] ashley : i mean , honestly , jack , i do n't think we 're ever gon na have any idea what 's truly in her head or her heart ever again . traci : i am not sure that that is entirely true . jack : what are you looking for ? traci : [ clears throat ] traci : this . jack : and what is this ? traci : [ sighs ] i think our mother has some very important things left to say , and they 're all in this envelope . adam : and in case i have n't made myself clear , i do n't plan to forgive and forget all of victor 's attempts to undermine me . he 's controlling and cruel , and i am through putting up with it . but he had nothing to gain by killing this man . chelsea : so , what are you saying ? adam : [ sighs ] victor does n't deserve to be let off the hook , okay ? not after everything he 's made me endure . but what keeps going through my mind ... is this the hill that i want to die on ? because if i 'm wrong about victor 's guilt or if i miscalculate in any way , it is going to start a war ... and it 's one that i do n't want you and connor to have any part of . chelsea : okay . well , devil 's advocate -- we are talking about a man who had you locked up for a murder you did n't commit . you remember what that cost our family , adam ? so , now , depending on what alyssa finds ... adam : this could be a murder that victor did commit . [ sighs ] is it poetic justice that the tables can finally be turned ? or is it my undoing ? nick : look , vick , you 're all about drive and ambition , and those traits do n't just disappear because of a setback . i 'm just holding that seat for you until you 're ready to have it back , and it 's all yours . you do n't have to worry about it . victoria : i appreciate that , nick . i really do . [ sighs ] i just feel so lost . nick : i know . victoria : no . i really do n't think you do . [ sighs ] the day of dad 's party , i ... [ sighs ] i just felt like i finally knew who i was again . i felt whole . i felt like i could take on anything . 'cause for a while , i just had so many questions about my life . nick : 'cause of j.t . ? victoria : yeah , that ... and another disastrous go - around with billy . [ sighs ] but then , with a little hard work and ... some reflection , i got back on my own feet ... only to be cut down all -- again , literally , by ... a sick , deranged man that i never even saw . nick : back to square one . victoria : in a way , yeah . but it 's just different this time . it 's worse . it 's like i have this -- this big ball of dread in the pit of my stomach that never goes away . it 's like i 'm fighting something and i do n't even understand what it is . it 's ... draining me , and it 's -- it 's sapping me of all of my confidence . when people tell me to just give it some time ... to not take on too much ... i 'm gon na bounce back , but ... i do n't know , nick . it 's just -- it 's -- it 's getting worse . i just -- i feel like all of the fight has gone out of me . [ voice breaking ] that 's not who i am , nick . jill : so , i assume that you two are working on a list of companies you 'd like to acquire . billy : yeah , of course , and the list keeps growing . we 've got social - media platforms , online streaming , a 24-hour - news site . lily : i actually have a another idea that i have n't mentioned yet that 's more mainstream than the podcast company . jill : mm . i 'm listening . lily : well , i do n't really want to go into detail until i have a chance to talk to traci . billy : my sister traci ? lily : mm - hmm . and that 's all i 'm gon na say for now . billy : well , that 's got me intrigued . jill : me , too . lily : good . billy : although , uh , with dina back at the house , i do n't know how much free time traci 's gon na have . jill : why do n't you go see jack -- ask him if there 's anything you can do to make things easier ? billy : yeah . uh , thank you , mom . i know how to be a good brother . jill : i 'm just trying to help out . billy : okay . well , you can help by letting us get back to work . jill : that 's me dismissed . lily : [ chuckles ] bye . jill : [ chuckles ] bye . [ humming ] billy : [ sighs ] what ? lily : uh , no . it 's fine . forget it . billy : no , please . speak your mind . lily : no , i was just , you know , thinking that instead of being so impatient with jill , you could be thankful that you still have a parent around . billy : yeah . you 're right . i 'm sorry . lily : no , it 's okay . just -- billy : no . you 're right . i do feel blessed to have my mother still in my life , even though she drives me crazy . lily : [ chuckles ] well , i 'm sure the feeling is mutual . billy : oh , i guarantee it is . lily : yeah . my dad and i did n't always see eye to eye , but ... i would give anything to have him back and ... get his advice on so many things -- my life , my kids , taking this job . billy : really ? lily : yeah . i just wonder if ... he would be upset that i did n't go back to work with devon at hamilton - winters or ... if he would be proud that i 'm branching out on my own . billy : lily , there is not a doubt in my mind that your father would be very proud of you , no matter what . traci : these are dina 's end - of - life wishes . it 's a series of questionnaires that she filled out before the alzheimer 's became too intrusive . jack : do n't you think it 's too soon to be reading that ? ashley : no ! traci : no . jack , we 're all here together now . jack : no , i 'm just saying -- but -- you know what ? never mind . no . you 're -- you 're -- you 're right . it 'll help to read our mother 's thoughts . traci : okay . okay , good . here we go . let 's see . mm . wow . jack : [ chuckling ] what ? ashley : what 's so funny ? traci : right off the bat . ashley : what ? what ? jack : something she wrote ? traci : uh [ chuckles ] it 's a - a list of instructions . it 's dina 's detailed instructions about her funeral and her interment , and when i say , `` detailed , `` this is vintage dina . jack : oh , my god . you are n't kidding . ashley : wait . what is that ? oh , no . that 's the model number of the urn she 's chosen . [ laughter ] traci : i find it a little encouraging , though , that she wants , um , a celebration of life and not a formal service . ashley : well , yeah . she has picked out the song list for the -- the string quartet , even . jack : unbelievable . is there anything else there ? traci : um , let 's see . it 's a lot of practicalities . this is where to find her will . this one is contact information for her attorney , and ... [ sighs ] jack : what ? ashley : what 's interesting ? traci : um , this one is entitled ... `` what i want my loved ones to know . `` no matter what i wore , i worried someone might see `` the young and the restless `` will continue . ashley : biggest accomplishment ? well , no surprise there . jack : yeah , mergeron -- building it from a small european family company to a global powerhouse . traci : mm - hmm . ashley : mm . biggest regret -- same . traci : wow . talk about irony . ashley : yeah . traci : [ chuckles ] jack : `` i use the company as a wall , a shield , a defense against having to face my endless failures as a human being . `` traci : oh , my -- jack : `` just reading the title of this questionnaire , ' what i want my loved ones to know ' -- whenever these responses are finally read , some may even question if i had loved ones . `` traci : oh . ashley : `` i pushed my husband and children away and kept them away because i did n't have what it took to be a mother . oh , i tried for a while -- a token effort meant more to impress my friends at the club . `` traci : oh , my goodness . ashley : `` but not hard enough . [ voice breaking ] then i left my family altogether . i made excuses . i did n't understand the difference between being selfish and becoming self - sufficient . `` traci : `` but , somehow , my kids grew up to be smart , healthy , and mostly happy functioning adults . `` [ laughs ] `` i regard that as nothing short of a miracle . i wish i could take credit for the phenomenal people they 've become . but i can not . i had nothing to do with it . `` [ breathes deeply ] `` what can i say about jackie and ashley ? `` [ chuckles ] jack : `` they 're headstrong dynamos , ready to run companies just like their mother . but they 've managed to be loving , present parents , as well . `` most of the time . `` and traci , the s -- `` `` and traci , the sweet baby of the family with a heart as big as the moon . i feel i let her down perhaps most of all . traci was so young when mommy vanished from her life . `` traci : [ sighs , chuckles ] jack : `` and as the years went on , i did nothing to make up for it -- just the opposite . i could n't bring myself to get on the plane and ... `` [ voice breaking ] `` ... and attend her dear colleen 's funeral . `` traci : [ crying ] jack : [ crying ] `` the tears of shame in my eyes as i write this -- my absence was truly unforgivable . `` [ all crying ] ashley : `` it 's hardest of all to face traci . looking into those big , expressive , warm eyes of hers , i ca n't but know help how deeply i wounded her . `` traci : ohh . ohh .

[ crying ] ... why she forgot me . of all three of us , i 'm the one that she never remembered . she did n't know my name or who i was . [ crying ] maybe -- maybe it 's just because it was all too painful . ashley : [ sniffles ] traci : [ crying ] lily : is that ... billy : last night 's dinner under the desk . lily : oh , wow . we 've been spending way too much time here . billy : well , it 's not like we have anyone to go home to . lily : oh , god . it 's so pathetic how empty our lives have become . billy : hey , now . speak for yourself . lily : really ? 'cause you 're sitting here cuddling up with a container of cold sesame noodles ? billy : okay . well , you know my love life . what about yours ? are you dating anyone ? lily : uh , yeah . nikki : victor , if something is going on with you -- and i sense that there is -- please do n't leave me in the dark . victor : my darling , would you consider agitation is simply my being conscientious about my family -- that 's all ? okay ? nikki : this is about more than just victoria recovering , is n't it ? you feel like you have let connor and hope and possibly even adam down by letting the farm fall into disrepair . victor : well , you know , hope was a wonderful woman . nikki : yes , she was . victor : yeah . but , you know , that farm is her legacy . i mean , it 's a tribute to her memory . and adam wants to take his son there . i understand that . but i do n't want them to walk in the kitchen and it 's all in shambles . it 's not nice . nikki : i can see why that would be upsetting to you . victor : yeah . nikki : and yet ... despite the picture that adam paints of his idyllic upbringing , he sold his birthplace to start a hedge fund . you 're the one that stepped out to preserve it . you have always been the protective one . victor : i know -- maybe too much so , okay ? sweetheart , it is time for me to go -- go to the airport , okay ? nikki : alright . well ... travel safely . i love you . victor : i love you . you 're beautiful . nick : anything i can do to help ? victoria : you 're already doing it . i appreciate you listening to me rant . nick : that 's what brothers are for . victoria : i really -- i really did n't mean to unload on you like that . nick : i can handle it . vent away . victoria : you know , maybe i 'm just overreacting . that 's probably what it is . maybe my recovery is just taking longer than i want it to , but ... you know , i 've never really been the soul of patience . [ gasps ] nick : vick ? victoria : [ groans ] nick : hey . hey , hey , hey , hey . vick , vick , vick , vick . what 's wrong ? what 's wrong ? victoria : [ breathing heavily ] nick : victoria . chelsea : i am on your side , babe ... 100 % . you decide you want to see this through , you just say the word . i am here for you . adam : that means everything to me . but , still , i would be the one that 's launching a full - scale attack on a man with unlimited resources . chelsea : it 's a lot to consider . adam : [ sighs ] you know , when i came back from vegas ... i had the chance to take over newman . victor offered it up on a silver platter , and i turned it down . chelsea : i know . adam : but what if i had said yes ... accepted the keys to the kingdom ? do you think he would 've followed through ? chelsea : i doubt it . sorry . that 's just my honest assessment . i think he would have yanked it away like he always does in favor of one of his kids that he has with nikki . it 's almost like a sport to that man . i think he 's incapable of change . let me ask you something . if hope was still alive today , what would she have to say about victor ? i mean , where would your mom stand with all this ? adam : oh , i ca n't imagine she would approve of the way victor 's treated me over the years . chelsea : [ chuckles ] adam : then again , i do n't think she would approve of some of my actions , either . [ breathes deeply ] chelsea : well , you have a big decision to make ... so i 'll give you a little bit of time . adam : chelsea , wait , wait , wait , wait . look , what i do know for sure ... is that i must have done something right to ... deserve a woman as special as you . chelsea : you deserve only good things , adam . i 'm gon na help you get them . adam : [ chuckles softly ] chelsea : mm . adam : mm . chelsea : mm . mmm ! adam : ohh ! chelsea : [ giggles ] mm ! lily : uh , there 's a guy upstate i 'm seeing . billy : well , i 'm not surprised . you know , a woman like you should have a social life , and you 're a hell of a catch . lily : [ chuckles ] billy : so where is this guy ? lily : oh , he 's about a 5-hour drive from billy : really ? how 's that going ? lily : eh , i do n't know . i mean , now that i 'm here full - time , i do n't think we can keep the long - distance thing going . billy : well , if you want to find someone closer , then you just let me know , okay ? i 'll be your wingman . we can hit the town . we can fire it up a little bit . lily : [ chuckles ] hit the town ? uh , i 'll pass . thank you . billy : oh . ashley : `` regret is n't a word i 've used often . i 've never been big on apologies , either . and that attitude has cost me dearly . `` traci : [ clears throat ] `` i should have gone to my kids long ago and begged their forgiveness . i was too afraid of their recriminations . and now i fear we 'll never have the chance to fully reconcile . and for that , i am profoundly sorry . `` ashley : i 'm so glad that you thought of this . jack : look , i - i just -- i just remembered i - i got some business i - i have to deal with , okay ? ashley : okay . traci : wh -- jill : oh , nikki ! hello ! how is victoria doing ? nikki : getting better every day , thank you . jill : oh , i 'm glad to hear it . nikki : i 'm in a bit of a rush , so -- jill : you know what ? you look so wonderful . it must be this spring weather we 're having . nikki : yes . yes . it 's been lovely . jill : but , then again , any day is a good day when you do n't have to pretend you 're grieving a dead husband who is n't really dead , right ? nikki : well , i guess faking his own death is the one con your husband never pulled . or is colin your ex now ? i - i can not keep track . jill : oh , good one . touché . nikki : if you 'll excuse me . [ cellphone rings ] hi , sweetheart . nick : i 'm at the hospital . it 's victoria . you need to get down here . jack : thank you for meeting me . jill : you sounded terribly upset on the phone , jack . are you okay ? jack : i needed a friend . and for some odd reason , i thought of you . lily : so , if i give you more details on ha'penny media , will you reconsider taking a meeting ? billy : look , i know you think i 'm all about risk , betting everything on the flip of a card ... but this time i 'm going for balance . lily : okay . since when ? billy : since i realized how much i want to make this work . i like being partners with you . and i do n't want my recklessness to be the reason why this company goes down the tubes . but next week , i will be a wild man again . but for right now , i think it 's best that we hold on to the safety net that we have and not spend all the money in the first week , okay ? and not give my mother a reason to pull the plug on us . deal ? lily : yeah . [ cellphone rings ] billy : it 's nikki . wonder why she 's calling . lily : answer it . billy : hey , nikki . what 's going on ? nikki : i 'm at memorial . nicholas was visiting victoria . she suddenly felt a pain in her chest , so he called an ambulance . they rushed her to the emergency room . billy : uh , what -- what did the doctor say ? nikki : you know everything i do . i just thought you should know because of johnny and katie , in case they keep her overnight . billy : okay . i 'm on my way . i got to go . lily : yeah . nikki : any word ? nick : they 're running tests . nikki : well , is it her heart ? chelsea : [ sighs contentedly ] what 's going through your head ? adam : i 've made a decision . i need to do this . i need to prove victor and i are cut from the exact same cloth and that i 'm more of my father 's child than nick and victoria or abby could ever be . chelsea : well , i could have told you that . adam : [ chuckles softly ] now is not the time for self - doubt . it 's time to go full speed ahead in pursuit of the ultimate goal . chelsea : which is ? adam : ending this war with him ... once and for all . [ both sigh ] | alyssa tells adam that she spoke to the coroner that performed her father 's autopsy and she thinks he is hiding something . adam briefly has second thoughts about pursuing victor 's past but decides to go ahead with it . victor heads to kansas to make sure his secrets do n't come out . jack . ashley . and traci get emotional when they read a letter dina wrote to them before her alzheimer 's got too advanced . victoria has chest pains while nick visits her and is rushed to the hospital . | <s>[INST] [ previously_on ] jack : dina is coming home today . we 've all agreed we want to take advantage of the time we have left with her . jill : how is the new partnership coming ? lily : it 's great . we were just talking about how similar our visions are . adam : i wanted to talk about my mother 's farm in kansas . i 'm afraid to say the property 's in pretty sad shape . i even ran into an old friend -- alyssa montalvo . did you ever meet her or her family on one of your visits ? victor : does n't ring a bell . alyssa : if things went down the way you think they did , that means both our fathers killed someone . victor : hi , sweetheart . nikki : hi , darling . victor : mm . nikki : mm . victor : so glad you could join me for lunch . there you go . nikki : me , too . thank you . victor : there you go . now ... there 's something ... i have to tell you . nikki : i hate to ruin your surprise , but i already know . victor : how ? nikki : your pilot tipped me off when he called the house about your flight today . victor : oh , okay . nikki : and now i 'm afraid i 'm gon na disappoint you , because , as much as i would love to jet off to some fabulous destination , until victoria 's back on her feet , i - i do n't feel comfortable leaving . victor : and i share your feelings about that . i do n't think it is a good idea for both of us to leave the ranch at this time . so i 've decided to go alone . nikki : what ? victor : yeah . nikki : where are you going ? victor : kansas . nikki : hope 's farm ? victor : yeah . nikki : why ? why now ? victor : [ breathes deeply ] [ cellphone rings ] adam : alyssa . alyssa : hi . i was n't sure if you 'd pick up . adam : well , i 'm surprised to hear from you so soon . i hope you have n't given up already . you know , if our fathers are guilty of murder , we have to keep investigating . the truth is gon na be out there somewhere . alyssa : it may be closer than you think . victoria : [ sighs ] [ door opens in distance ] [ footsteps approach ] nick : how 's the patient ? victoria : patients are sick people . i am a convalescent . nick : i stand corrected . victoria : and i 'm doing much better today . thank you . nick : great ! victoria : i hope you 're not here to check up on me since mom and dad just left me for a minute and a half . nick : believe it or not , i need your help . billy : i think it 's time we put ourselves on the map -- let the world media know that we are here . we 'll throw a nice , big , splashy party , maybe have a little charity tie - in . lily : yeah . i think maybe we should have a few media outlets in our portfolio before we pat ourselves on the back with a party . billy : oh , you do n't like the party anymore ? lily : no . jill : i do not believe you , billy . billy : hi , mom . jill : how could you do something like this ? lily : oh , good . what have you done now ? billy : i - i - i do n't know . what did i do now ? jill : oh , please . the `` zombie nation `` podcast ? billy : what about it ? jill : the host just tweeted that chancellor 's media division bought out their parent company . what were you thinking ? billy : okay , hol -- i - i - i do n't know what you 're talking about . lily : okay . billy is not responsible for that . i am . jack : mother , are you comfortable ? is -- is -- is this maybe too much sun ? we can close the blinds a little . traci : and are you hungry ? you did n't eat very much for breakfast . ashley : yeah . do you want to watch a little tv ? what do you think ? jack : [ clears throat ] is this really how we 're gon na spend our day , trying to guess what she wants in any given moment ? ashley : it 's impossible . i mean , she does n't even know where she is right now . traci : okay , guys . remember , the people at the memory - care facility told us it was gon na be just like this . around - the - clock nursing is a godsend , but if we are really going to honor our commitment to making the rest of dina 's life the best it can be here at home , then the time that we spend with her has to be about her . jack : yeah . you know what ? why do n't -- why do n't you two take a break ? i 'll keep an eye on her . mrs. martinez set out some sandwiches . ashley : okay . traci : [ sighs ] okay . jack : [ breathes deeply ] dina : where ... jack : i 'm sorry . did you say something ? dina : where -- where -- where am i ? where did i go ? jack : ash , trace . dina : where did i go ? jack : easy . uh , she just spoke to me -- asked where she is . ashley : mother ? hi . it 's ashley . how are you feeling ? traci : mother , it 's traci . who -- who are you looking for ? jack : you got all three of your children right here ... traci : yeah . jack : ... right in front of you . dina : uh , mamie . i - i - i need to talk to her . i have something i want to say . for most patients that have additional sponsorship jack : mamie just left . um , i do n't expect she 'll be back for a while . traci : uh , what is it that you wanted to say to mamie ? ashley : we could probably get a message to her . dina : oh - ho . jack : mother , we 're all here to help you . dina : mm - hmm . jack : just tell us what you want . does n't matter -- big or small . traci : you just say the word and we will make it happen . jack : [ exhales sharply ] traci : [ sighs ] nick : so , legal said we can make the deadline for submitting an offer if we want . the question is , do we want to pull the trigger on that price ? vick ? victoria : you know , nick , to tell you the truth ... i really could n't care less . if the deal tanked , i 'd be fine with it . nick : hey , come on . where 's that killer instinct my sister 's famous for ? victoria : it 's gone ... possibly for good . jill : you purchased a podcast - production company without consulting anybody ? billy : `` zombie nation `` ? that 's a hell of a name . lily : it is , actually , and it gets a lot of attention , which i think you both are proving . jill : be that as it may , lily , you have a partner ! you have a boss ! for you to make a unilateral decision on a purchase of that magnitude -- lily : jill , jill , you 're misinformed . jill : excuse me ? lily : i have n't purchased anything . i have n't even discussed terms . jill : then explain the tweet , please . lily : all i did was i made a call and i set up an exploratory meeting , so i 'm assuming the podcast host must have overheard and jumped the gun . but it 's a random tweet -- jill : yeah , it 's a random tweet that was totally misunderstood . lily : okay . i will fix this , alright ? i will do damage control . but , jill , i 'm telling you , this could be great for us . the content they generate is right in our wheelhouse , and i think that once billy can see the lineup , he 'll agree with me . jill : so ... i suppose you 're gon na say it 's a brilliant idea and i should just stay out of this . billy : [ sighs ] no . actually ... i 'm not gon na say that . lily : what ? billy : it 's an entire entity that i 've never heard of , and i consider myself pretty plugged in , so i say we pass . it 's too big of a risk . adam : alright . you have evidence already ? alyssa : nothing concrete , but i do have a strong lead . adam : okay . well , lay it on me . alyssa : so , i met with the man who was county coroner when my father died -- the one who got the autopsy report stating that the injuries my dad sustained when he fell from the barn loft were the cause of death . adam : did you get him to admit that he lied ? alyssa : nothing so drastic . but for someone who performed the autopsy so many years ago , he had a visceral reaction when i brought it up . adam : really ? so , what is your reporter gut telling you ? alyssa : that there 's more to the story and this guy knows a lot more than he 's saying . adam : okay . well , stay on him . alyssa : oh , do n't worry . adam : look , i 've compiled a list of shell companies that newman 's used over the years . i 'm gon na send it to you . maybe you can find some trace of a bribe that victor might have paid him . alyssa : i 'll look into it . adam : and this coroner -- offer him money , protection , whatever it takes , because if victor 's bought him off once , he can be bought off again . alyssa : paying a source ? that 's a pretty big no - no . adam : alyssa ... this is not about some run - of - the - mill exposé . it 's deeply personal to both of us . alyssa : i 'm not paying anyone for info . not going to happen . adam : fine . i - i get it . i 'm just , um -- i 'm just anxious to get to the truth . alyssa : if our suspicions turn out to be accurate , my father killed for money . your father killed to protect you . i 've always focused on my career , nikki : victor , i do n't mean to argue with you . i - i just do n't understand your burning need to drop everything and go to kansas . victor : sweetheart , when i bought the farm for hope , i promised that i keep it up , okay ? now adam tells me it 's falling apart , so i need to assess the situation . nikki : yes , it is your property to take care of . that 's not what i 'm questioning . victor : what are you questioning ? nikki : why you feel compelled to go there personally . i mean , surely there must be someone local you can trust to make a few repairs . victor : there 's an old caretaker called george , and i think this job is getting too much for him . that 's all . nikki : well , then hire more help . write a check and be done with it . victor : sweetheart . nikki : victor , your family needs you here . i need you here . victor : i understand that . and i will be back . wo n't be long . but i need to look at the situation . that 's all . nikki : alright . have someone drive out to the farm , take photos , and text them to you . victor : sweetheart . nikki : darling , save yourself a 1,000-mile round trip . victor : you are not gon na talk me out of it , okay ? nikki : you have been agitated ever since adam came to the ranch carrying on about his trip . is there something you 're not telling me ? victor : nonsense . i 'm going to the farm , inspect it , and that 's it . okay ? chelsea : seems like alyssa 's on the right track . do n't you think ? adam : it 's circumstantial . [ sighs ] there is not much of a case . chelsea : i 'm surprised you 're not more excited about this . what happened to the adam who could n't wait to get the goods on victor and be named c.e.o . in exchange for his silence ? adam : it was one of the last things that alyssa said to me about my father and hers . it just kind of gave me pause . if victor did kill a.j . , i mean , did n't he do it out of love ? protect my mother and me from a dangerous threat ? and now i 'm gon na use that against him for purely selfish reasons . i mean , i know victor would do the same to me , and worse , in a heartbeat . chelsea : then why are you conflicted ? adam : because if this ever got out , the consequences would be massive . and the rest of the world -- they may not understand why victor took this man 's life , but i sure would . chelsea : and you 'd feel guilt for that ? adam : [ chuckles softly ] [ sighing ] ohh . hope adams , she was , um -- she was a saint . you know , she persevered through her whole life totally blind ... only to have her husband murdered over a debt she knew nothing about , so ... she must have been terrified we 'd be next . for her to go to victor for anything ... my mother just -- she deserved so much more . chelsea : are you having second thoughts about this ? adam : [ sighs ] chelsea : because if you are ... we do n't have to go through with it . it 's whatever you want . adam : well , given my sudden inconvenient attack of conscience ... am i willing to bury my father 's crime and walk away with nothing ? victor wins again . jack : [ exhales sharply ] [ door opens ] ashley : the nurse is getting dina settled back into bed . traci : i do not know what 's worse ... seeing that glimmer of responsiveness and then watching it just fade away or -- ashley : not seeing any sign at all of the woman that she used to be . either way , it 's really heartbreaking , is n't it ? jack : now , wait . wait a minute . being in this house has triggered something . she remembered mamie . ashley : well , i wish i could take some kind of comfort in that , jack , but -- i 'm sorry -- i can't . i 'm afraid that we 've had our last lucid conversation with our mother . jack : [ groans ] ashley : i mean , honestly , jack , i do n't think we 're ever gon na have any idea what 's truly in her head or her heart ever again . traci : i am not sure that that is entirely true . jack : what are you looking for ? traci : [ clears throat ] traci : this . jack : and what is this ? traci : [ sighs ] i think our mother has some very important things left to say , and they 're all in this envelope . adam : and in case i have n't made myself clear , i do n't plan to forgive and forget all of victor 's attempts to undermine me . he 's controlling and cruel , and i am through putting up with it . but he had nothing to gain by killing this man . chelsea : so , what are you saying ? adam : [ sighs ] victor does n't deserve to be let off the hook , okay ? not after everything he 's made me endure . but what keeps going through my mind ... is this the hill that i want to die on ? because if i 'm wrong about victor 's guilt or if i miscalculate in any way , it is going to start a war ... and it 's one that i do n't want you and connor to have any part of . chelsea : okay . well , devil 's advocate -- we are talking about a man who had you locked up for a murder you did n't commit . you remember what that cost our family , adam ? so , now , depending on what alyssa finds ... adam : this could be a murder that victor did commit . [ sighs ] is it poetic justice that the tables can finally be turned ? or is it my undoing ? nick : look , vick , you 're all about drive and ambition , and those traits do n't just disappear because of a setback . i 'm just holding that seat for you until you 're ready to have it back , and it 's all yours . you do n't have to worry about it . victoria : i appreciate that , nick . i really do . [ sighs ] i just feel so lost . nick : i know . victoria : no . i really do n't think you do . [ sighs ] the day of dad 's party , i ... [ sighs ] i just felt like i finally knew who i was again . i felt whole . i felt like i could take on anything . 'cause for a while , i just had so many questions about my life . nick : 'cause of j.t . ? victoria : yeah , that ... and another disastrous go - around with billy . [ sighs ] but then , with a little hard work and ... some reflection , i got back on my own feet ... only to be cut down all -- again , literally , by ... a sick , deranged man that i never even saw . nick : back to square one . victoria : in a way , yeah . but it 's just different this time . it 's worse . it 's like i have this -- this big ball of dread in the pit of my stomach that never goes away . it 's like i 'm fighting something and i do n't even understand what it is . it 's ... draining me , and it 's -- it 's sapping me of all of my confidence . when people tell me to just give it some time ... to not take on too much ... i 'm gon na bounce back , but ... i do n't know , nick . it 's just -- it 's -- it 's getting worse . i just -- i feel like all of the fight has gone out of me . [ voice breaking ] that 's not who i am , nick . jill : so , i assume that you two are working on a list of companies you 'd like to acquire . billy : yeah , of course , and the list keeps growing . we 've got social - media platforms , online streaming , a 24-hour - news site . lily : i actually have a another idea that i have n't mentioned yet that 's more mainstream than the podcast company . jill : mm . i 'm listening . lily : well , i do n't really want to go into detail until i have a chance to talk to traci . billy : my sister traci ? lily : mm - hmm . and that 's all i 'm gon na say for now . billy : well , that 's got me intrigued . jill : me , too . lily : good . billy : although , uh , with dina back at the house , i do n't know how much free time traci 's gon na have . jill : why do n't you go see jack -- ask him if there 's anything you can do to make things easier ? billy : yeah . uh , thank you , mom . i know how to be a good brother . jill : i 'm just trying to help out . billy : okay . well , you can help by letting us get back to work . jill : that 's me dismissed . lily : [ chuckles ] bye . jill : [ chuckles ] bye . [ humming ] billy : [ sighs ] what ? lily : uh , no . it 's fine . forget it . billy : no , please . speak your mind . lily : no , i was just , you know , thinking that instead of being so impatient with jill , you could be thankful that you still have a parent around . billy : yeah . you 're right . i 'm sorry . lily : no , it 's okay . just -- billy : no . you 're right . i do feel blessed to have my mother still in my life , even though she drives me crazy . lily : [ chuckles ] well , i 'm sure the feeling is mutual . billy : oh , i guarantee it is . lily : yeah . my dad and i did n't always see eye to eye , but ... i would give anything to have him back and ... get his advice on so many things -- my life , my kids , taking this job . billy : really ? lily : yeah . i just wonder if ... he would be upset that i did n't go back to work with devon at hamilton - winters or ... if he would be proud that i 'm branching out on my own . billy : lily , there is not a doubt in my mind that your father would be very proud of you , no matter what . traci : these are dina 's end - of - life wishes . it 's a series of questionnaires that she filled out before the alzheimer 's became too intrusive . jack : do n't you think it 's too soon to be reading that ? ashley : no ! traci : no . jack , we 're all here together now . jack : no , i 'm just saying -- but -- you know what ? never mind . no . you 're -- you 're -- you 're right . it 'll help to read our mother 's thoughts . traci : okay . okay , good . here we go . let 's see . mm . wow . jack : [ chuckling ] what ? ashley : what 's so funny ? traci : right off the bat . ashley : what ? what ? jack : something she wrote ? traci : uh [ chuckles ] it 's a - a list of instructions . it 's dina 's detailed instructions about her funeral and her interment , and when i say , `` detailed , `` this is vintage dina . jack : oh , my god . you are n't kidding . ashley : wait . what is that ? oh , no . that 's the model number of the urn she 's chosen .

[ scene_break ] david : ha ! you know what 's so funny is , you profess your love for greenlee , but it 's so obvious you do n't respect her . if you did , you would n't keep showing up here trying to interfere in her life . ryan : a life that you saved . i bet you never let her forget that , huh , hayward ? david : greenlee is not getting married to me out of some mistaken sense of obligation . she 's trying to move on with her life . why ca n't you just let her be happy ? go play the white knight somewhere else . greenlee does n't need rescuing . ryan : great . if you think this is a game , hayward , you 're the one who 's gon na need rescuing . [ scene_break ] greenlee : i may have been gone for a year . that does n't mean i 've given up my rights to anything . i 'm taking back what 's mine , whether you like it or not . erica : that 's what you think . you did everything you possibly could to destroy fusion . greenlee : i 'd rather see fusion go under than have you be any part of it . erica : i see . well , if it were n't for me , fusion would n't exist . greenlee : ha ha ! have you been sniffing the samples ? kendall and i created this company with zero help from you . erica : greenlee , i gave you your start in this industry . i hired you at enchantment . i taught you everything about color palette and corporate politics , and you took what you learned , and you co - created fusion , and when fusion faltered , i 'm the one who brought it back from the brink , so as far as i can see , you should be thanking me , not feel threatened by me , especially since i only stepped in at kendall 's insistence . greenlee : ha ha ! and we all know you and your daughter are quite the team , both of you sleeping with ryan in one short year . erica : both kendall and ryan thought they had lost you . they were both mourning their loss of you . they turned to each other for comfort in their grief . greenlee : convenient excuse . what 's yours ? you sure as hell were n't grieving a loss when you made a play for ryan , unless , of course , it was the loss of your pride . erica : you know , you are so busy lashing out that you do not see the facts . ryan and kendall are long over . ryan and i are , too . greenlee : very noble of you to step aside after i came back . erica : you know what ? just for your information , ryan and i broke up before we even knew you were alive .

[ scene_break ] erica : you seem surprised that ryan did n't mention when we broke up , much less try to defend himself when you attacked him for moving on , but it does n't surprise me , because that 's the kind of person ryan is , more concerned with what 's best for others than himself . greenlee : i do n't need you to tell me who ryan is . he proved it while i was gone , showing his concern between the sheets . erica : oh , that 's it . i mean , i have had it . we have all been trying to celebrate your miraculous return . greenlee : oh ! erica : even i have tried to overlook our past problems and your current tantrums . greenlee : tantrums i learned from your inspirational teachings at enchantment ? erica : miracle or not , i can not , will not stand here and hear you bad - mouth this decent man ryan who -- for god knows why -- loves you more than anything . i just ca n't believe that i encouraged him to fight for you , because you do n't deserve him . you could never make him happy . greenlee : and you can ? erica : oh , you have convinced both ryan and jackson that you are this delicate , little flower who needs protecting , but the truth is , you are just too spiteful to die . erica : jack . jack : erica . you know , greenlee has been through hell for the past year . does she really need you attacking her ? erica : greenlee knows very well why i said what i did , and i 'm not gon na stand here and defend myself , but you know what ? this really has served as a very helpful reminder as to where your priorities lie and why things have never worked out between us . jack : we -- can we talk about this in the morning ? erica : i do n't think so . our breakfast date is off . jack : you -- are you all right ? greenlee : i am now .

[ scene_break ] david : so , did ryan get through to you , convince you to rethink our arrangement and pick it up where you left off ? greenlee : he moved on . i ca n't pretend that the last year did n't happen . david : i 'm not trying to imply that it would be easy , but imagining what it would be like to see ryan again and actually coming to -- face to face with him are two very different things . i ca n't think of anything that might prepare you for what you would feel . [ scene_break ] ryan : it 's not over . greenlee can lie to herself , but she ca n't lie to me . there is still love there . i see it , and i must stay in this until she sees it , too .

[ sighs ] colby : hi . this is annie chandler . i 'm a patient of dr. burke 's . i really need to speak with him . no , no , no , no . no , no . no , no . this ca n't wait . the woman who broke up my marriage is back . i saw her . i really need dr. burke 's help . ok . greenlee is the reason i ended up at oak haven , and i ca n't go back . [ scene_break ] ryan : i mean , a lot has changed over the past year , but one thing that has n't is greenlee 's determination . i mean , once she gets her mind set on something -- erica : oh , she 's got her mind set on marrying david hayward just to get back at you , and it 's obvious that her attack on fusion was her lashing out at me . ryan : it 's not gon na stop there . erica : did she admit to sabotaging the computers ? ryan : she did n't admit to anything , but she was very clear to me that she wants fusion back , and she wants erica gone . jesse : so , there 's no reason for her to stop defending hayward . erica : david will get what he has coming , but now , if you 'll excuse me , i 'm meeting someone for dinner . jesse : she better not -- ryan : no , no . no , no , no . i 'll talk to her . i 'll talk to her . hey , look . you 're gon na have enough on your hands with fusion . why do n't you let me handle david ? erica : ryan , i am so sorry that things got so complicated . i mean , your reunion with greenlee would be completely different if not for me . ryan : erica , you have nothing to apologize for , nothing . i mean , when you realized that i was n't the man that you were supposed to be with , you were up- front . you were honest , no games , no lies . i just wish greenlee could be the same . erica : you are such a good man , ryan lavery . if greenlee does n't take you back , she 's a fool . [ scene_break ] greenlee : i know this wedding was my idea . i wanted to make it some big production , so i could hurt ryan the way he hurt me , but the more i think about it -- david : all right , greenlee . it 's ok . i 'm not gon na force you to go into a marriage that you know is a mistake . greenlee : inviting people was a mistake . i thought it was so important to have everyone stand there and watch , but you 're the only one in this town who has ever really stood by me , so that 's what this wedding should be about -- the two of us , no one else . david : greenlee -- greenlee : if i have you by my side , i can conquer anything . the fact that i 'm alive proves it . so , what do you say ? tomorrow -- you , me , vows ? david : [ sighs ] we both know what this marriage is really about . you 're afraid of being hurt again . greenlee : you should call the minister and see if he 's free tomorrow . david : where you going ? greenlee : i 've got to take care of something important , but do n't worry . by this time tomorrow , we 'll be husband and wife .

[ cell phone ringing ] erica : oh , i 'm so sorry . this is a call that i really need to take , if you 'll excuse me . mayor villaraigosa : not a problem . it 's good to see you . erica : good to see you , too . thank you , and call me . we 'll do lunch . mayor villaraigosa : i look forward to it . erica : thank you . take care . mayor villaraigosa : thank you .

[ typing ] erica : what are you doing in my office ? greenlee : oh , i can see how you would be confused , with your picture plastered everywhere , so let me clear it up for you . fusion is my company . that makes this my office . do n't let my door hit you on the way out . erica : you crashed this company 's computers . you practically drove fusion into bankruptcy , so as far as i 'm concerned , you have given up all rights to call this company yours . [ scene_break ] angie : you know , what i did today , i am not proud of myself . jake : what did you do ? honestly , what did you do ? you got a bunch of files from david as a christmas gift , and all you did was regift it so you could settle a strike . angie : a file packed with people 's deepest , darkest secrets , and i told myself that i would never , ever sink that low . i know that i am better than david hayward , and now , as it turns out , i am no different . jake : oh , donkey crap . are you kidding me ? you are a beautiful , sensitive , compassionate woman , and all you do is give and give to everybody and never ever expect anything back . david is a stupid , selfish , punk - ass bastard who thinks of nothing but himself ever . angie : jake , i want you to honestly look in my eyes and say that i am doing a good job . jake : angie , i can look right into your eyes and tell you you are doing a great job . do you realize that everybody outside there in those halls , they 're working for less money , and they are working longer hours ? you know why ? because their morale is through the roof for the first time since my father was pushed out of here by david . finally , they have somebody they can believe in , somebody that they trust and , more importantly , respect . that 's exactly what this hospital needs . angie : i used to think so , but the harsh reality is that it takes more than good intentions to keep these doors open , and i am just not built that way . i think the hospital would be better off putting someone else in this position . jake : no . nobody works harder than you or cares more about those patients than you . i 'm a witness . angie : you know , i have worked so hard to get to where i am . my father , he had high expectations , and i just always seemed to fall short , and here i am . i 'm doing it again . jake : well , i do n't know about that . look . if your father did n't believe in you , i 'll tell you one father who always believed in you -- my father . you know that i was just talking to him the other day , and he said he was so thrilled that you were the chief of staff . he said you could certainly fill his shoes any day . angie : oh , jake , come on . i do n't even come close . joe made this job look effortless . i am barely keeping my head above water . jake : oh , you know how to swim . angie : obviously not . [ scene_break ] tad : do you want to talk about it ? it might help . jesse : i do n't know . i 'm just -- been trying to find some mutual down time for angela and myself , you know , just never enough time . like tonight , she did n't even have time to have dinner with me . tad : does n't mean anything . she 's just busy at the hospital . hey , face it . you know , it 's a fact . you got a talented wife . she 's in high demand . jesse : she 's always been in high demand , but it 's just these jobs . she 's a chief . i 'm a chief . you know , it just leaves us no time for each other . tad : well , then you better make time , but while you 're figuring it out , you thank god you 're doing it with a woman like angela . she 's true blue . jesse : oh , we all know all too well that life can go straight to hell in a hand basket in any given 20 seconds , so what are we doing ? why are we wasting time , and on what ? [ scene_break ] david : ha ! you know what 's so funny is , you profess your love for greenlee , but it 's so obvious you do n't respect her . if you did , you would n't keep showing up here trying to interfere in her life . ryan : a life that you saved . i bet you never let her forget that , huh , hayward ? david : greenlee is not getting married to me out of some mistaken sense of obligation . she 's trying to move on with her life . why ca n't you just let her be happy ? go play the white knight somewhere else . greenlee does n't need rescuing . ryan : great . if you think this is a game , hayward , you 're the one who 's gon na need rescuing . [ scene_break ] greenlee : i may have been gone for a year . that does n't mean i 've given up my rights to anything . i 'm taking back what 's mine , whether you like it or not . erica : that 's what you think . you did everything you possibly could to destroy fusion . greenlee : i 'd rather see fusion go under than have you be any part of it . erica : i see . well , if it were n't for me , fusion would n't exist . greenlee : ha ha ! have you been sniffing the samples ? kendall and i created this company with zero help from you . erica : greenlee , i gave you your start in this industry . i hired you at enchantment . i taught you everything about color palette and corporate politics , and you took what you learned , and you co - created fusion , and when fusion faltered , i 'm the one who brought it back from the brink , so as far as i can see , you should be thanking me , not feel threatened by me , especially since i only stepped in at kendall 's insistence . greenlee : ha ha ! and we all know you and your daughter are quite the team , both of you sleeping with ryan in one short year . erica : both kendall and ryan thought they had lost you . they were both mourning their loss of you . they turned to each other for comfort in their grief . greenlee : convenient excuse . what 's yours ? you sure as hell were n't grieving a loss when you made a play for ryan , unless , of course , it was the loss of your pride . erica : you know , you are so busy lashing out that you do not see the facts . ryan and kendall are long over . ryan and i are , too . greenlee : very noble of you to step aside after i came back . erica : you know what ? just for your information , ryan and i broke up before we even knew you were alive . [ scene_break ] annie : colby . i thought you went to bed . colby : hmm , hoping is more like it . that way , you and scott can stop pretending you 're writing a report together and really get down to business , a quickie right here on the couch . annie : you have a very active imagination . if your father comes home , tell him i went upstairs to take a bath . colby : uh , yeah . tell him yourself , because i 'm spending the night at corinna 's . [ doorbell rings ] annie : dr. burke , what are you doing here ? dr. burke : i came as soon as i got your message . annie : what message ? dr. burke : the one you left with my secretary . she was very concerned , paged me right away . annie : but i did n't call oak haven . your secretary must be mistaken . i never spoke to her . dr. burke : when was the last time you slept ? annie : excuse me ? dr. burke : you look exhausted . perhaps you forgot you made the phone call . annie : what ? no . i am exhausted , because i 've been up working all night . i have n't had the chance for a break , let alone to make a phone call . dr. burke : ah , it 's late . you 're tired . why do n't we talk about this in the morning ? annie : i do n't need to talk . i 'm fine . i 'm fine . my marriage wo n't be , though , if my husband comes in and sees you here pushing for therapy that i do n't need , so , if you 'll excuse me , i have some work to finish . dr. burke : call me if you change your mind . [ annie cries ] scott : hey , i 'm glad you 're still up . listen . i looked over the report . the numbers that you quoted , they did n't include the last quarter . they -- no , no , no . it 's ok . it 's ok . anybody could 've made the same mistake . annie : it 's not the report . i feel like everything in my life is falling apart . scott : oh , come here . [ scott hugs annie ] [ scene_break ] jake : you know , i do n't think there 's any point in hating yourself when david is the one that caused all this . angie : no . i am the one who tried to beat david at his own game . i blackmailed him into stepping down as chief and recommending me for the job . i thought i had the upper hand , but the truth of the matter is that david was just giving me enough damn rope -- the union head was in david 's back pocket . he recorded a conversation we had about ending the strike . now david has the tape , and he is threatening to go public unless i resign . jake : you tell jesse about this ? angie : about what , blackmailing and bullying a union into staying on the job ? jake : well , you had a good reason , right ? the janitors were gon na strike . the hospital was gon na shut down . angie : what are you talking about ? i still broke the law . i am not going to put jesse in the position of trying to choose between our marriage and his job . i 've been there . jake : so , that 's it , then . david wins . is that -- angie : oh , god , jake , please come on , baby . just give it up . jake : he had sex with my wife ! he brainwashed one of my best friends in the world into almost marrying him . he 's trying to destroy my dear , dear friend 's career , one of the best doctors i know . no . i am not gon na -- i 'm never gon na let him hurt anybody i love or care about again . [ scene_break ] erica : you seem surprised that ryan did n't mention when we broke up , much less try to defend himself when you attacked him for moving on , but it does n't surprise me , because that 's the kind of person ryan is , more concerned with what 's best for others than himself . greenlee : i do n't need you to tell me who ryan is . he proved it while i was gone , showing his concern between the sheets . erica : oh , that 's it . i mean , i have had it . we have all been trying to celebrate your miraculous return . greenlee : oh ! erica : even i have tried to overlook our past problems and your current tantrums . greenlee : tantrums i learned from your inspirational teachings at enchantment ? erica : miracle or not , i can not , will not stand here and hear you bad - mouth this decent man ryan who -- for god knows why -- loves you more than anything . i just ca n't believe that i encouraged him to fight for you , because you do n't deserve him . you could never make him happy . greenlee : and you can ? erica : oh , you have convinced both ryan and jackson that you are this delicate , little flower who needs protecting , but the truth is , you are just too spiteful to die . erica : jack . jack : erica . you know , greenlee has been through hell for the past year . does she really need you attacking her ? erica : greenlee knows very well why i said what i did , and i 'm not gon na stand here and defend myself , but you know what ? this really has served as a very helpful reminder as to where your priorities lie and why things have never worked out between us . jack : we -- can we talk about this in the morning ? erica : i do n't think so . our breakfast date is off . jack : you -- are you all right ? greenlee : i am now . [ scene_break ] jake : the worst part is that david might actually get away with this , because he has angie exactly where he wants her . you know what ? i say the way to do this , the way to stop him , is to take a page out of his book . you get it ? tad : any ideas ? ryan : i got one , but i 'm gon na need your help to pull it off . [ scene_break ] david : dr. hubbard may have successfully averted that strike , but i do n't think it 's the time for the board to be breathing a sigh of relief just yet . board member : what have you heard ? david : well , let 's just say the chief of staff has n't been very proactive in her decision making . it may be time for the board to step in , start thinking about a replacement . board member : i appreciate your candor , dr. hayward . [ cell phone ringing ] david : anything to help . board member : i 'll show myself out . david : thank you . [ ring ] david : huh . [ ring ] david : you can save your breath , jake . greenlee has made up her mind . we 're getting married . jake : hey , david , i 'm calling about marissa . the paramedics just brought her in . david : what is it ? jake : there was an accident . david : what happened ? jake : i 'll fill you in when you get here . david : damn it , martin . tell me what 's going on with my daughter . jake : look . we 're trying to stabilize her , all right ? just get in here . huh ? i 'd like to thank the academy and my agents and god , of course , because without god , you ca n't -- ryan : so , he bought it . tad : oh , how could he not , a performance like that ? ryan : go to the hospital . i 'll take care of the rest . tad : stop with the beer . jake : ok . my car is outside . tad : yeah . so is mine . i 'll drive . jake : well , the idea is to get there before david , so , you know , minivan does n't exactly spell speed . tad : no . i 'm thinking about what happens after david gets to the hospital . i 'm thinking the cargo space is going to come in handy . jake : i think we do n't have to stand here and talk anymore . we could be in the minivan . let 's go in the minivan . [ scene_break ] jack : why did n't you tell me about the wedding ? greenlee : i knew you 'd try to stop me . jack : well , that 's a safe assumption , given the fact you were about to marry someone you do n't love . greenlee : think what you want . i 'm marrying david tomorrow . jack : oh , come on . this is insane . i mean , do you really expect me to be supportive of you marrying a man who kept the fact that you were alive a secret for a year ? greenlee : no more than i would support whatever is going on between you and erica . i have to hand it to her . she wasted no time . broke up with ryan , moved on to breakfast with you . jack : oh -- look . did you and ryan get enough of a chance to talk about all this ? greenlee : he told me what he thought i wanted to hear , but it does n't change anything . jack : greenlee , i know you 're hurt , but marrying david hayward is not gon na make the pain go away . if anything -- i promise you -- it 's gon na make it worse . greenlee : i did n't come for a lecture . wait . how 'd you know i 'd be here ? jack : i did n't know you 'd be here . greenlee : so , you came looking for erica . jack : we were gon na have some dinner together , and i -- greenlee : oh , my god , this just keeps getting worse . how many times does that woman have to break your heart before you learn ? jack : can we drop the subject , please ? greenlee : erica took everything that mattered to me . this wo n't be over until she gets what 's coming to her .

( laughter ) beth : and that , too . phillip : i smell a setup . rick : why do n't we just call it an intervention ? harley : do n't tell me you ca n't find anything . keep looking . bill : well , look , if phillip has something up his sleeve ... harley : which he does , i know it . bill : ... he 's not going to just let it float around on the internet , okay ? he does n't want to tip anyone off . you know what we need ? we need someone on the inside , like a coworker or a family member . harley : i 've got the perfect insider . but you are going to be the one who has to get them to help us . marina : whoa . you slept with joey last night . tammy : i said i was supposed to . it was all planned out and everything , but ... marina : but ? what ? you ca n't just leave it there . tammy : i changed my mind , okay ? i just thought it would be better to wait . marina : well , was joey upset ? tammy : joey did n't even show up . he totally blew me off , and i have no idea why . joey : ( groans ) lizzie : ( laughs ) hey there , sleepyhead . joey , you were amazing last night . dinah : well , edmund , you and i both know that if jeffrey wants something , he will do anything to get it . and if cassie is something that he wants ... edmund : dinah . i should have known . cassie : i 'll see you later . edmund : where are you going ? cassie : i have some things to take care of . edmund : cassie , you and rj nearly died in a fire last night . you need to get some rest . cassie : i have a million questions for dinah , and i 'm going to make her answer every [ k single one of them . edmund : no . i ca n't let you do that . dinah : come on . turn that frown upside down . it 's a bm @ p.1 new day in springfield . jeffrey : thanks . you were home free . dinah : here it comes : the lecture . jeffrey : i set the whole thing up . no one had to know anything , no one would have been the wiser , but that was n't good enough for you , was it ? dinah : i would never have been able to come back here . this is home . jeffrey : this is home ? well , i 've got news for you , sweetie , okay ? some of the people at home want to see you hooked up to a lethal injection . and lucky me , i get to make that happen . phillip : you know , suddenly i 've lost my appetite . have a great day . rick : wait , wait , wait , wait . phillip . beth : wait , please . just come into the restaurant with us and sit down . rick : we really need to talk to you , pal . just for a minute . phillip : i 'm sure whatever we have to say , we can say it out here . rick : we 're very concerned about you . you seem to have made it your mission in life to alienate just about every single person in this town . bill : it 's not going to work . harley : she knows phillip better than anyone in the world . she is the perfect person to pump for information . bill , call her . beth : phillip , just listen to us . some of the moves you 've made lately , gaining control of ... phillip : the business . i 'm doing business . i 'm a businessman . rick : phillip , you 're causing some real damage to people in this community . phillip : you ca n't possibly blame me for buzz 's heart attack . the man has got to learn to handle stress better . rick : oh , you mean the way you handled yours and ended up in ravenwood ? phillip : oh , that 's a low blow . rick : no , no . wait a second . i 'm just trying to make you see here , buddy , that everybody is vulnerable at one time or another . everybody . beth : and we all need help . phillip : well , i don't . not anymore . i know exactly what i 'm doing , and why . ( cell phone ringing ) beth : uh , excuse me . hello ? bill : uh , hey , beth . it 's bill . beth : hi . bill : where are you ? beth : at the beacon . bill : excellent , perfect . you know , i 'm right upstairs in suite 522 . would you mind coming upstairs ? because i need to talk to you . beth : uh , it 's really kind of a bad time . i 'm in the middle of something with phillip and rick . bill : you know , it 's really important . could you please come up ? beth : all right . i 'll give you a couple of minutes . i need to take care of something . phillip : that 's fine . i think we 're done here , right ? beth : i 'm going to be right back . phillip : two - on - one first thing in the morning . rick , where do you find the energy ? are n't there people dying that need your help ? i mean , do n't get me wrong , i appreciate the concern , but as you can see i 'm fine -- calm , cool and collected . rick : you want to prove to me you 're fine ? stop beating up the coopers and leave company alone . marina : so , joey did n't show up on the night that you planned to sleep together ? that 's kind of weird . tammy : yeah . i 'm trying really hard not to freak out about this , marina . marina : well , he did n't call you or anything ? tammy : not a word . and every time i called his cell phone , i just got his voice mail . i 'm so tired of this . it 's been off and on with joey since the very beginning . i mean , every time i think that we finally are okay , something happens . it 's driving me crazy . marina : well , then you 've got to fix that , tammy . tammy : you know what ? you 're right . i 'm going to go find joey and make him tell me what happened . the last time i saw him he was headed to towers for a spaulding reception . i 'll start there . joey : this is not happening . lizzie : joey , chill . it 's not like we did anything wrong . we did it the right way , see ? joey : oh , man . lizzie : you act like i put you through some kind of torture . instead , it was ... joey : lizzie , i do n't remember anything that happened . lizzie : come on , joey . joey : i 'm serious , lizzie . i remember coming through the hallway and the power was out . i was looking for the reception , and past that ... lizzie : and we wanted to celebrate you winning the spaulding internship . you were all for it . then we raided the mini - bar and we had a lot of fun . then we started dancing and you kissed me and i kissed you back and ... ( laughs ) ... from that point on , we could n't keep our hands off each other . of course , i could make you think we did it . that may be just as good as the real thing , right ? how could you not remember that , joey ? joey : lizzie , i did n't come here to sleep with you . lizzie : well , you sure changed your mind , did n't you ? joey : no , no , no . last night was supposed to be my night with tammy . lizzie : joey ? could you please stop talking about tammy for two seconds , okay ? bill : oh , beth , thanks for coming up . i appreciate it . beth : sure . is n't this olivia 's suite ? um , never mind . so , what 's going on ? bill : well , as a major shareholder in spaulding enterprises i 'm a little concerned with the direction of the company , and i think it 's time for a change . beth : i see . you want phillip out as ceo . bill : look , the moves he 's making right now are going to come back and haunt everyone who owns stock in this company . i 'm telling you , i 'm trying to round up all the major shareholders so we could help , you know , vote him out . beth : look , i may not approve of all phillip 's decisions or his approach , but i 'm not about to join some cabal to depose him . i 'm a little more loyal than that . and for the record , i do n't appreciate you using our history to manipulate me into being otherwise . that 's not what friends do . excuse me . harley : oh , hi ... beth . cassie : you do n't understand , edmund . i thought she was out of my life . okay , i prayed that she was out of my life , but she shows up here in the middle of the night . i want to know why . she probably set the fire . edmund : no , cassie , it was an accident . jeffrey dropped the candle when he was knocked out by the flying debris in the barn . the barn just went up like kindling . beth : no , no . i want these answers to my questions ... edmund : cassie ... beth : ... now . edmund : ... i just do n't think you should confront this woman when you 're so on edge . cassie : you 're on edge yourself , edmund . is there some other reason that you do n't want me talking to dinah ? rj : mommy ! cassie : oh , baby . it 's okay . edmund : cassie . cassie , the boy needs you . just take care of him . i 'll go down and find out what this woman is doing in town , and then everything will be all right . please , please , cassie , i want to help , all right ? cassie : edmund ? jeffrey : you 're going on trial for murder , okay ? try to get that through your thick skull . dinah : yeah , and murder is dangerous . i know that . and i 'd be worried if i did n't have the district attorney on my side . jeffrey : excuse me ? dinah : yeah . you 're going to get me out of this . jeffrey : dinah , i can't . and i won't . dinah : yeah , you are . you 're going to get these off of me and you 're going to open the door wide open . jeffrey : you really are insane , you know that ? you really are insane . dinah : jeffrey , you 'd be the crazy one to keep me locked up like some little songbird . because i will sing , but you wo n't like the tune . jeffrey : is that a threat ? dinah : i just think i 'm going to get lonely in jail . i want to tell somebody , a reporter perhaps , about the rousing adventures you and i have had together . jeffrey : you do that . you do that . and by the time i 'm done with you , you 'll be begging for the death penalty to put you out of your misery . ross : o'neill , leave her alone . dinah : daddy . ross : not another word . you know , without her attorney present you 're not allowed to question her or be alone with her , let alone intimidate her . dinah : mr. o'neill . just to wrap up our conversation , just do n't be so sure that you know the whole story . there 's a lot more i can say given a chance . oh , my goodness am i glad to see you . ross : i came as soon as i heard you were here . dinah : thank you . ross : i could n't stay away from my little girl . marina : hey , back so soon ? you find joey ? tammy : i got halfway to towers and decided that i was being totally psycho . marina : you are ? tammy : well , it just seems like such a needy girlfriend thing to do to go and try and track him down . i do n't think he 'll like that . marina : well , you have a right to be mad , tammy . tammy : i know . i know . but you know what ? if joey and i are going to be together then i just need to trust him . i need to believe that he 's going to tell me what happened as soon as he gets the chance . marina : wow . very mature . me , i 'd stick with being angry . tammy : you know , it just does n't seem worth it . i love joey , and i know that he loves me . whatever he did last night is not going to change that . lizzie : look , joey , i 'm really sorry for going off on you like that . it 's just that last night was so perfect . joey : except i do n't remember any of it . lizzie : i should have known . ( laughs ) joey : what ? lizzie : why would any guy as good as you want anything to do with me ? joey : lizzie , i like you . lizzie : yeah , evidently he did last night . but hey , i 'm not tammy . joey : sorry , lizzie . lizzie : you know , what was last night to you ? was it just a fling ? for me , it was a big mistake . joey : lizzie , i have to go . lizzie : listen , i know that we were n't meant for more than just one night , but i still want you to be happy , joey . and i know that 's weird , but i 'm not going to say anything to tammy , okay ? not a word . she wo n't get over it if i tell her , so i 'm just going to let you do that . joey : me ? lizzie : well , i mean , i know you 're going to tell her . i mean , you love her . you tell everything to the people you love . i mean , i do n't know exactly what you 're going to say . i mean , `` i love you , yet i slept with somebody else on accident . `` so , i do n't know . you could figure it out . that is , unless you do n't tell her at all . phillip : let me tell you something . there are a lot of people in this town who are afraid of change . well , i 'm not . i see what the future could be like , and sooner or later everybody else will , too . and they will thank me for it , rick . because i can do so much more for this town than some crummy burger joint . rick : phillip , i know you . this is n't about the future . phillip : it 's not ? rick : no , it 's not . this is about getting back at people that you think have hurt you ; convincing the world that your breakdown made you stronger not weaker . now come on , buddy . you have not to prove or be ashamed about . this ... you were ill and now you 're fine . phillip : so it 's completely out of the question that maybe i just have a great idea and i 'm trying to pursue it . rick : phillip , if you do n't stop this , and stop it now , you 're going to blow your life apart all over again . phillip : rick , i 'm doing exactly what a man in my position should be doing . and i insist on respect . rick : there 's a difference between respect and fear , and you know it . phillip : i 'll take either . beth : how 's buzz doing ? harley : well , i wish he was doing better . actually , i 'm worried about him . but not just him , i 'm worried about phillip . beth : well , that seems to be going around . harley : i do n't know how to say this , so i 'm just going to say it . i think that phillip has fully recovered from that breakdown . and i do n't just say that because i think he caused my father 's heart attack , which i do , or because i want to stop the bulldozers from taking down company , which i also do , but because there 's something really scary about him now , beth . beth : okay , okay . look , i will admit that there does seem to be something personal about the way that phillip has targeted company . harley : exactly . personal . beth : but he 's not insane . he is in control . a year ago at this time , if something upset him he would have gone into a rage or he would have had a panic attack . he has learned how to cope with the stress . harley : yes , he just goes after the little people now . beth : no , he goes for a walk . harley : what do you mean ? beth : that 's what he does . and it works . i do n't know where he goes or what he does , but when he comes back he 's definitely calmer and clearer . harley : well , i guess that 's good . it 's nice to know that he 's just mean , not mental . sorry . beth : i got to go . harley : okay . it 's me . bill : hm ? harley : it 's me . bill : you get anything ? harley : i 'm not sure . but how do you feel about weaving a red flag at a bull ? tammy : where were you ? i waited all night . joey : i know . i meant to be here . i 'm sorry . tammy : and what happened ? hold it . okay , before you say anything , please just make sure it 's the truth . i do n't care what the story is , as long as it 's the real one . joey : you do n't care ? tammy : we 'll be okay if we just tell each other the truth . i know it sounds corny and all that , but i really honestly do believe that . cassie : did you book her , did you ? jeffrey : why are you whispering ? cassie : because rj was up all night long with nightmares . and i just had to rock him back to sleep , which i have n't had to do in a long time . so we 're pretty much all wrecks here . jeffrey : okay . and edmund is upstairs ? cassie : no . he 's out doing what i wish i could be doing . jeffrey : which is ? cassie : visiting dinah . if i walked in that room it would take everything in me not to choke the life out of her . jeffrey : well , that 's probably the best thing that you do n't go and see her . cassie : everyone keep saying that . why ? why ? she killed someone i loved , jeffrey . she tried to kill me . she wanted to take my life . do you understand that ? she wanted to take my life . oh , my god . it was her . it was her . jeffrey : it was her what ? cassie : dinah was the impostor . took my life . she took my identity . it all makes sense , jeffrey . it does . jeffrey : ( laughs ) you do n't know that . cassie : do you think this was a coincidence , jeffrey ? this was personal . and i felt that from the beginning . oh , yeah , dinah . dinah was the one . she did this . but you ... you set up that meeting with that woman in washington , d.c. you said that she was the imposture . you lied . jeffrey : no . cassie : yes , you did . and you 're lying now . you protected dinah . cop : mr. mayor ? there 's a call for you . ross : all right . yeah , i 'll take it . i 'm going to take this call , and then i 'll be right back . dinah : well , gosh , i 'm a very popular girl today . edmund : not everyone . no . dinah : let me guess . you are here to find out whether or not i plan to tell cassie about our friendship we struck up . hmm ? depends . edmund : i 'll tell cassie myself if you ever try to hurt her again . dinah : oh , i doubt she 'll take that very well from either one of us . edmund : really ? she knows the kind of deception of which you 're capable . clearly deceived me . i think she 'll understand . dinah : maybe you 're right . maybe you 're right . but i think she 'd have a lot tougher time getting past the fact that you 're the one that caused the fire that nearly killed rj . edmund : what ? dinah : edmund , come on , i almost believe you 're shocked . you 're the one who knocked out jeffrey and caused the fire in one fell swoop . i saw it . i saw the whole thing . coming up on `` guiding light ... `` cassie : she needs to be punished . and she needs to suffer like i 've suffered . dinah : look , as far as deals go with the devil , you ca n't afford to turn this down . bill : maybe you should just take a swing at me . oprah : how to look like you had marina : so what are you going to do , coop ? are you going to stick around springfield for a while , or head back to england ? coop : i do n't know yet . marina : well , while you 're deciding you can go on in there and kick phillip spaulding 's butt , like you did with gus . coop : ( laughs ) you really hate that family , do n't you ? marina : yeah . yeah , i do . you know , they 're just a bunch of stuck - up , ruthless bullies . hey , lizzie . lizzie : wow , marina , that 's amazing . how long has shayne been gone ? what , like two weeks ? i see you 've already moved on . i see you do n't waste time . tammy : joey , it 's okay . just tell me . we love each other . joey : last night at the reception , spaulding guys were handing me drinks and i got really loaded and passed out . tammy : they 're getting you drunk already ? nice . hey , it 's okay . i 'm not mad . joey : but last night was supposed to be our night . tammy : actually , i think maybe you saved us from making one of those really big mistakes you were talking about . joey , if we 'd had sex last night , it would have been all wrong . sex is n't something that we should just jump into . it 's way too important . harley : do you think he 'll actually come ? ( knock at the door ) bill : mm - hmm . harley : okay , just be as obnoxious as you can . and do n't let him in the bathroom . phillip : bill , i understand that you 're trying to hold a stockholders ' meeting without my approval . bill : you know , i have every right to call a meeting . i own a lot of spaulding stock , and i do n't like some guy fresh out of the funny farm running the outfit . phillip : that attitude towards mental illness is not only ignorant and outdated , it 's also rude . bill : yeah , yeah , yeah . well , sick in the head is sick in the head , right ? besides , you should be thanking me . i 'm just trying to lighten your load a little bit so you 'll have more time to do a little something , you know , less taxing . what do you do down on crazy street , basket weaving ? is that how you spend your time ? phillip : you should watch your mouth . bill : well , just telling it like it is . in fact , last night , after a very nice love session with olivia , we were talking about you and your time in the nut hatch . ( laughs ) you are always good for a few laughs . ( laughs ) oh ... my , my , my . jeffrey : cassie , i told you before there were accomplices involved . that woman was obviously one of them , okay ? she was covering for dinah . cassie : she 'd be willing to go to jail for dinah ? jeffrey : dinah must have had something on her . cassie : maybe . i thought dinah was gone . i thought i would never even have to see her again . jeffrey : well , you know , the good news is she 's locked up now , cassie . she 's locked up . cassie : she 's here . she 's in town . and she had rj in her arms . and if she was the imposture after all , then she was in this house and she was around all the time . jeffrey : you know , i 'm so sorry . i should have done a better job of protecting you . if i was doing my job right dinah marler would have never shown up here last night . cassie : it does n't matter . but she needs to be punished . and she needs to suffer like i 've suffered . jeffrey : well , i 'm going to get back to the station . cassie : wait . can you stay for a while ? please ? edmund : what makes you think i started the fire ? dinah : jeffrey came into the barn to start the generator , you followed him in , snuck up behind him and cracked him with the shovel . jeffrey dropped his lantern , and that caused the barn to go up in flames . you were wanting to get out of there , leave him there to roast , but a spasm of conscious hit you and you came back in to pull him out . did i forget anything ? edmund : yes , what do you want ? dinah : i want a simple agreement : you keep my secrets and i keep yours . look , as far as deals go with the devil , this is n't so bad . and even if it were , you ca n't afford to turn this down . tammy : joey , when you did n't show up last night i had a lot of time to think it over . the last thing that sex should be is casual . so why rush it , right ? we have all the time in the world . marina : that 's what i love about you , lizzie . the more clueless you are , the more you mouth off . lizzie : i do n't quite know what you 're talking about , marina . marina : this is my uncle , henry copper bradshaw . coop , this is the notorious lizzie spaulding . coop : it 's nice to meet you , i think . lizzie : right . you must be the son that buzz is so ashamed of . which is something else , because frank 's so out of control lately . marina : my father is not out of control . lizzie : oh , no , out of control at all . he just pulled a gun on my grandfather , which is so much class . oh , but that 's a copper for you , i guess . coop : wait , wait , wait . hey , hold on . lizzie : no , it 's okay . it 's all right . let her go . it 's been how long since you 've been arrested ? like what , a couple of weeks ? marina : yeah , you know , maybe i can share a jail cell with your aunt alex . coop : okay . all right . i guess i missed a lot around here , have n't i ? lizzie : have n't missed a thing . coopers are always trying to go after the spauldings , and they always lose . marina : shut up . lizzie : what ? it 's not like i 'm making it up or anything . what , buzz went after my dad . and he had a heart attack , yeah . and then your dad went after my grandfather and he got fired from chief of police . and then harley tried marrying gus , and that did n't happen either . i think your family needs some help . and you should think about changing your name . marina : oh . coop : hey . hold on , hold on . wait a second , wait a second . wait , you know what ? here . look at me . you know what ? i think i 'm going to stick around for a while , and i 'm going to make sure that the spauldings get what they deserve . marina : yeah , well , welcome to our world . phillip : you know , bill , if you 're trying to get a rise out of me , you 'll have to do better than that . what you ladies gossip about in bed is really of no concern to me . although i will tell you , when olivia was in bed with me we did n't spending a lot of time talking about other men . bill : well , you know , maybe you never stayed there long enough . phillip : ( laughs ) bill : you know , maybe i may have that problem . easy there , phillip . easy . settle down . phillip : no , that 's all right , bill . actually , i find you very amusing . bill : do you ? really ? hey , i got a tip for you . maybe you should take a walk down to the hat store . they have a two - for - one special : one for your head and one for that thing that 's bulging out of your neck . my goodness , is that thing going to pop ? is that how you spauldings mutate ? am i are going to have little spauldings running around here ? just give me a fair warning . give me fair warning . maybe you should just take a swing at me . huh ? you want to take a swing at me ? you 'll feel so much better . huh ? phillip : you 'd like that would n't you , bill ? yeah , you would love that , because then you could go back to the stockholders and you can say , `` oh , god , he 's going crazy again . he attacked me . `` if you 'll excuse me , i have more important things to do . bill : wow , olivia 's right . you are nuts . harley : boy , you are nasty when you want to be . bill : i got to tell you , it was fun . harley : should we see where he 's going ? bill : after you . edmund : deals , secrets . you 're turning everything upside down . dinah : it was my fault that cassie made love to jeffrey in washington ? edmund : shut up ! dinah : i 'm curious . have you forgiven cassie for her little indiscretion ? edmund : cassie and i are none of your business . dinah : oh , so in other words , she has n't admitted it and you have n't gone past it . speaking of things to get past , i need your help in one other matter : the murder charge against me . edmund : what do you want me to do , set fire to a barn with the jury inside ? dinah : that 's not a bad idea . i was thinking of something of the more subtle persuasion . if cassie testifies that i was n't in the right mind when i shot hart , if i really did n't know what i was doing at the time , i think that i could get the sympathy of the jury . edmund : why would cassie help you out in court ? she 'd sooner step in front of a bus . dinah : i saved rj 's life . edmund : and you also tried to take hers the night you killed hart . dinah : edmund , you 've been a very good friend to me , but i need you to be one a little bit longer . i 'm going to be forced to tell cassie that you 're the one that caused the fire . now , i keep trying to tell you that i 'm not the one that set all this trouble in motion . jeffrey is the one to blame . edmund : well , maybe on some things we still agree . cassie : thanks . jeffrey : sure . cassie : i guess i 'm just ... jeffrey : in shock . cassie : yeah , i guess i am . i just keep seeing her arms around my child , you know . how did i not know that she was here ? how did i not figure it out , or feel it ? there were no alarm bells that went off , no red flags , nothing . how am i ever going to trust my instincts again ? jeffrey : there 's nothing wrong with your instincts , cassie . and you should be thankful that you did n't allow yourself to go into that twisted place that is her mind . i mean , i wish that i hadn't . cassie : what are you talking about ? you just met her . jeffrey : well , i know i just met her , but i have this , you know , ability with the criminal mind . i understand it . it 's my job , you know . so i just met her , but i know her . cassie : then get her put away -- forever . jeffrey : i promise you i 'm going to do everything i can so that she never hurts you or anyone else ever again , okay ?

[ next_on ] danny : i 'm not interested in sharing this house with you . and by the way , i 'm not interested in sharing my wife with you , either . edmund : you are in love with cassie . and you 've been in love with cassie from the first moment you impersonated richard . | rick and beth try to intervene , hoping to help phillip . harley and bill try to use beth to their advantage . joey wakes up next to lizzie , who agrees to let him tell tammy if and when he wants . edmond visit dinah and they agree to keep one another 's secrets . ross is glad to see dinah . lizzie accuses marina of cheating on shayne . joey apologizes to tammy for not showing up , but does n't mention anything about sleeping with lizzie . bill antagonizes phillip , and harley gets caught breaking into phillip 's room at towers . cassie goes to visit dinah . | <s>[INST] phillip : hey , you know , this is a delightful way to start the day , having breakfast with one of my favorite people . then i can deal with all the less- than - favorite people afterwards . beth : never take on the world on an empty stomach , right ? rick : hey , what a surprise . beth : hey . rick : hey , beth , good to see you . are you guys here for breakfast ? do you mind if i join you ? beth : yeah , join us . rick : that 'd be great . good to see you . phillip : well , breakfast with two of my favorite people . even better . beth : and how lucky am i , out with my two favorite guys ? rick : yeah , and certainly two of the best - looking guys in springfield . ( laughter ) beth : and that , too . phillip : i smell a setup . rick : why do n't we just call it an intervention ? harley : do n't tell me you ca n't find anything . keep looking . bill : well , look , if phillip has something up his sleeve ... harley : which he does , i know it . bill : ... he 's not going to just let it float around on the internet , okay ? he does n't want to tip anyone off . you know what we need ? we need someone on the inside , like a coworker or a family member . harley : i 've got the perfect insider . but you are going to be the one who has to get them to help us . marina : whoa . you slept with joey last night . tammy : i said i was supposed to . it was all planned out and everything , but ... marina : but ? what ? you ca n't just leave it there . tammy : i changed my mind , okay ? i just thought it would be better to wait . marina : well , was joey upset ? tammy : joey did n't even show up . he totally blew me off , and i have no idea why . joey : ( groans ) lizzie : ( laughs ) hey there , sleepyhead . joey , you were amazing last night . dinah : well , edmund , you and i both know that if jeffrey wants something , he will do anything to get it . and if cassie is something that he wants ... edmund : dinah . i should have known . cassie : i 'll see you later . edmund : where are you going ? cassie : i have some things to take care of . edmund : cassie , you and rj nearly died in a fire last night . you need to get some rest . cassie : i have a million questions for dinah , and i 'm going to make her answer every [ k single one of them . edmund : no . i ca n't let you do that . dinah : come on . turn that frown upside down . it 's a bm @ p.1 new day in springfield . jeffrey : thanks . you were home free . dinah : here it comes : the lecture . jeffrey : i set the whole thing up . no one had to know anything , no one would have been the wiser , but that was n't good enough for you , was it ? dinah : i would never have been able to come back here . this is home . jeffrey : this is home ? well , i 've got news for you , sweetie , okay ? some of the people at home want to see you hooked up to a lethal injection . and lucky me , i get to make that happen . phillip : you know , suddenly i 've lost my appetite . have a great day . rick : wait , wait , wait , wait . phillip . beth : wait , please . just come into the restaurant with us and sit down . rick : we really need to talk to you , pal . just for a minute . phillip : i 'm sure whatever we have to say , we can say it out here . rick : we 're very concerned about you . you seem to have made it your mission in life to alienate just about every single person in this town . bill : it 's not going to work . harley : she knows phillip better than anyone in the world . she is the perfect person to pump for information . bill , call her . beth : phillip , just listen to us . some of the moves you 've made lately , gaining control of ... phillip : the business . i 'm doing business . i 'm a businessman . rick : phillip , you 're causing some real damage to people in this community . phillip : you ca n't possibly blame me for buzz 's heart attack . the man has got to learn to handle stress better . rick : oh , you mean the way you handled yours and ended up in ravenwood ? phillip : oh , that 's a low blow . rick : no , no . wait a second . i 'm just trying to make you see here , buddy , that everybody is vulnerable at one time or another . everybody . beth : and we all need help . phillip : well , i don't . not anymore . i know exactly what i 'm doing , and why . ( cell phone ringing ) beth : uh , excuse me . hello ? bill : uh , hey , beth . it 's bill . beth : hi . bill : where are you ? beth : at the beacon . bill : excellent , perfect . you know , i 'm right upstairs in suite 522 . would you mind coming upstairs ? because i need to talk to you . beth : uh , it 's really kind of a bad time . i 'm in the middle of something with phillip and rick . bill : you know , it 's really important . could you please come up ? beth : all right . i 'll give you a couple of minutes . i need to take care of something . phillip : that 's fine . i think we 're done here , right ? beth : i 'm going to be right back . phillip : two - on - one first thing in the morning . rick , where do you find the energy ? are n't there people dying that need your help ? i mean , do n't get me wrong , i appreciate the concern , but as you can see i 'm fine -- calm , cool and collected . rick : you want to prove to me you 're fine ? stop beating up the coopers and leave company alone . marina : so , joey did n't show up on the night that you planned to sleep together ? that 's kind of weird . tammy : yeah . i 'm trying really hard not to freak out about this , marina . marina : well , he did n't call you or anything ? tammy : not a word . and every time i called his cell phone , i just got his voice mail . i 'm so tired of this . it 's been off and on with joey since the very beginning . i mean , every time i think that we finally are okay , something happens . it 's driving me crazy . marina : well , then you 've got to fix that , tammy . tammy : you know what ? you 're right . i 'm going to go find joey and make him tell me what happened . the last time i saw him he was headed to towers for a spaulding reception . i 'll start there . joey : this is not happening . lizzie : joey , chill . it 's not like we did anything wrong . we did it the right way , see ? joey : oh , man . lizzie : you act like i put you through some kind of torture . instead , it was ... joey : lizzie , i do n't remember anything that happened . lizzie : come on , joey . joey : i 'm serious , lizzie . i remember coming through the hallway and the power was out . i was looking for the reception , and past that ... lizzie : and we wanted to celebrate you winning the spaulding internship . you were all for it . then we raided the mini - bar and we had a lot of fun . then we started dancing and you kissed me and i kissed you back and ... ( laughs ) ... from that point on , we could n't keep our hands off each other . of course , i could make you think we did it . that may be just as good as the real thing , right ? how could you not remember that , joey ? joey : lizzie , i did n't come here to sleep with you . lizzie : well , you sure changed your mind , did n't you ? joey : no , no , no . last night was supposed to be my night with tammy . lizzie : joey ? could you please stop talking about tammy for two seconds , okay ? bill : oh , beth , thanks for coming up . i appreciate it . beth : sure . is n't this olivia 's suite ? um , never mind . so , what 's going on ? bill : well , as a major shareholder in spaulding enterprises i 'm a little concerned with the direction of the company , and i think it 's time for a change . beth : i see . you want phillip out as ceo . bill : look , the moves he 's making right now are going to come back and haunt everyone who owns stock in this company . i 'm telling you , i 'm trying to round up all the major shareholders so we could help , you know , vote him out . beth : look , i may not approve of all phillip 's decisions or his approach , but i 'm not about to join some cabal to depose him . i 'm a little more loyal than that . and for the record , i do n't appreciate you using our history to manipulate me into being otherwise . that 's not what friends do . excuse me . harley : oh , hi ... beth . cassie : you do n't understand , edmund . i thought she was out of my life . okay , i prayed that she was out of my life , but she shows up here in the middle of the night . i want to know why . she probably set the fire . edmund : no , cassie , it was an accident . jeffrey dropped the candle when he was knocked out by the flying debris in the barn . the barn just went up like kindling . beth : no , no . i want these answers to my questions ... edmund : cassie ... beth : ... now . edmund : ... i just do n't think you should confront this woman when you 're so on edge . cassie : you 're on edge yourself , edmund . is there some other reason that you do n't want me talking to dinah ? rj : mommy ! cassie : oh , baby . it 's okay . edmund : cassie . cassie , the boy needs you . just take care of him . i 'll go down and find out what this woman is doing in town , and then everything will be all right . please , please , cassie , i want to help , all right ? cassie : edmund ? jeffrey : you 're going on trial for murder , okay ? try to get that through your thick skull . dinah : yeah , and murder is dangerous . i know that . and i 'd be worried if i did n't have the district attorney on my side . jeffrey : excuse me ? dinah : yeah . you 're going to get me out of this . jeffrey : dinah , i can't . and i won't . dinah : yeah , you are . you 're going to get these off of me and you 're going to open the door wide open . jeffrey : you really are insane , you know that ? you really are insane . dinah : jeffrey , you 'd be the crazy one to keep me locked up like some little songbird . because i will sing , but you wo n't like the tune . jeffrey : is that a threat ? dinah : i just think i 'm going to get lonely in jail . i want to tell somebody , a reporter perhaps , about the rousing adventures you and i have had together . jeffrey : you do that . you do that . and by the time i 'm done with you , you 'll be begging for the death penalty to put you out of your misery . ross : o'neill , leave her alone . dinah : daddy . ross : not another word . you know , without her attorney present you 're not allowed to question her or be alone with her , let alone intimidate her . dinah : mr. o'neill . just to wrap up our conversation , just do n't be so sure that you know the whole story . there 's a lot more i can say given a chance . oh , my goodness am i glad to see you . ross : i came as soon as i heard you were here . dinah : thank you . ross : i could n't stay away from my little girl . marina : hey , back so soon ? you find joey ? tammy : i got halfway to towers and decided that i was being totally psycho . marina : you are ? tammy : well , it just seems like such a needy girlfriend thing to do to go and try and track him down . i do n't think he 'll like that . marina : well , you have a right to be mad , tammy . tammy : i know . i know . but you know what ? if joey and i are going to be together then i just need to trust him . i need to believe that he 's going to tell me what happened as soon as he gets the chance . marina : wow . very mature . me , i 'd stick with being angry . tammy : you know , it just does n't seem worth it . i love joey , and i know that he loves me . whatever he did last night is not going to change that . lizzie : look , joey , i 'm really sorry for going off on you like that . it 's just that last night was so perfect . joey : except i do n't remember any of it . lizzie : i should have known . ( laughs ) joey : what ? lizzie : why would any guy as good as you want anything to do with me ? joey : lizzie , i like you . lizzie : yeah , evidently he did last night . but hey , i 'm not tammy . joey : sorry , lizzie . lizzie : you know , what was last night to you ? was it just a fling ? for me , it was a big mistake . joey : lizzie , i have to go . lizzie : listen , i know that we were n't meant for more than just one night , but i still want you to be happy , joey . and i know that 's weird , but i 'm not going to say anything to tammy , okay ? not a word . she wo n't get over it if i tell her , so i 'm just going to let you do that . joey : me ? lizzie : well , i mean , i know you 're going to tell her . i mean , you love her . you tell everything to the people you love . i mean , i do n't know exactly what you 're going to say . i mean , `` i love you , yet i slept with somebody else on accident . `` so , i do n't know . you could figure it out . that is , unless you do n't tell her at all . phillip : let me tell you something . there are a lot of people in this town who are afraid of change . well , i 'm not . i see what the future could be like , and sooner or later everybody else will , too . and they will thank me for it , rick . because i can do so much more for this town than some crummy burger joint . rick : phillip , i know you . this is n't about the future . phillip : it 's not ? rick : no , it 's not . this is about getting back at people that you think have hurt you ; convincing the world that your breakdown made you stronger not weaker . now come on , buddy . you have not to prove or be ashamed about . this ... you were ill and now you 're fine . phillip : so it 's completely out of the question that maybe i just have a great idea and i 'm trying to pursue it . rick : phillip , if you do n't stop this , and stop it now , you 're going to blow your life apart all over again . phillip : rick , i 'm doing exactly what a man in my position should be doing . and i insist on respect . rick : there 's a difference between respect and fear , and you know it . phillip : i 'll take either . beth : how 's buzz doing ? harley : well , i wish he was doing better . actually , i 'm worried about him . but not just him , i 'm worried about phillip . beth : well , that seems to be going around . harley : i do n't know how to say this , so i 'm just going to say it . i think that phillip has fully recovered from that breakdown . and i do n't just say that because i think he caused my father 's heart attack , which i do , or because i want to stop the bulldozers from taking down company , which i also do , but because there 's something really scary about him now , beth . beth : okay , okay . look , i will admit that there does seem to be something personal about the way that phillip has targeted company . harley : exactly . personal . beth : but he 's not insane . he is in control . a year ago at this time , if something upset him he would have gone into a rage or he would have had a panic attack . he has learned how to cope with the stress . harley : yes , he just goes after the little people now . beth : no , he goes for a walk . harley : what do you mean ? beth : that 's what he does . and it works . i do n't know where he goes or what he does , but when he comes back he 's definitely calmer and clearer . harley : well , i guess that 's good . it 's nice to know that he 's just mean , not mental . sorry . beth : i got to go . harley : okay . it 's me . bill : hm ? harley : it 's me . bill : you get anything ? harley : i 'm not sure . but how do you feel about weaving a red flag at a bull ? tammy : where were you ? i waited all night . joey : i know . i meant to be here . i 'm sorry . tammy : and what happened ? hold it . okay , before you say anything , please just make sure it 's the truth . i do n't care what the story is , as long as it 's the real one . joey : you do n't care ? tammy : we 'll be okay if we just tell each other the truth . i know it sounds corny and all that , but i really honestly do believe that . cassie : did you book her , did you ? jeffrey : why are you whispering ? cassie : because rj was up all night long with nightmares . and i just had to rock him back to sleep , which i have n't had to do in a long time . so we 're pretty much all wrecks here . jeffrey : okay . and edmund is upstairs ? cassie : no . he 's out doing what i wish i could be doing . jeffrey : which is ? cassie : visiting dinah . if i walked in that room it would take everything in me not to choke the life out of her . jeffrey : well , that 's probably the best thing that you do n't go and see her . cassie : everyone keep saying that . why ? why ? she killed someone i loved , jeffrey . she tried to kill me . she wanted to take my life . do you understand that ? she wanted to take my life . oh , my god . it was her . it was her . jeffrey : it was her what ? cassie : dinah was the impostor . took my life . she took my identity . it all makes sense , jeffrey . it does . jeffrey : ( laughs ) you do n't know that . cassie : do you think this was a coincidence , jeffrey ? this was personal . and i felt that from the beginning . oh , yeah , dinah . dinah was the one . she did this . but you ... you set up that meeting with that woman in washington , d.c. you said that she was the imposture . you lied . jeffrey : no . cassie : yes , you did . and you 're lying now . you protected dinah . cop : mr. mayor ? there 's a call for you . ross : all right . yeah , i 'll take it . i 'm going to take this call , and then i 'll be right back . dinah : well , gosh , i 'm a very popular girl today . edmund : not everyone . no . dinah : let me guess . you are here to find out whether or not i plan to tell cassie about our friendship we struck up . hmm ? depends . edmund : i 'll tell cassie myself if you ever try to hurt her again . dinah : oh , i doubt she 'll take that very well from either one of us . edmund : really ? she knows the kind of deception of which you 're capable . clearly deceived me . i think she 'll understand . dinah : maybe you 're right . maybe you 're right . but i think she 'd have a lot tougher time getting past the fact that you 're the one that caused the fire that nearly killed rj . edmund : what ? dinah : edmund , come on , i almost believe you 're shocked . you 're the one who knocked out jeffrey and caused the fire in one fell swoop . i saw it . i saw the whole thing . coming up on `` guiding light ... `` cassie : she needs to be punished . and she needs to suffer like i 've suffered . dinah : look , as far as deals go with the devil , you ca n't afford to turn this down . bill : maybe you should just take a swing at me . oprah : how to look like you had marina : so what are you going to do , coop ? are you going to stick around springfield for a while , or head back to england ? coop : i do n't know yet . marina : well , while you 're deciding you can go on in there and kick phillip spaulding 's butt , like you did with gus . coop : ( laughs ) you really hate that family , do n't you ? marina : yeah . yeah , i do . you know , they 're just a bunch of stuck - up , ruthless bullies . hey , lizzie . lizzie : wow , marina , that 's amazing . how long has shayne been gone ? what , like two weeks ? i see you 've already moved on . i see you do n't waste time . tammy : joey , it 's okay . just tell me . we love each other . joey : last night at the reception , spaulding guys were handing me drinks and i got really loaded and passed out . tammy : they 're getting you drunk already ? nice . hey , it 's okay . i 'm not mad . joey : but last night was supposed to be our night . tammy : actually , i think maybe you saved us from making one of those really big mistakes you were talking about . joey , if we 'd had sex last night , it would have been all wrong . sex is n't something that we should just jump into . it 's way too important . harley : do you think he 'll actually come ? ( knock at the door ) bill : mm - hmm . harley : okay , just be as obnoxious as you can . and do n't let him in the bathroom . phillip : bill , i understand that you 're trying to hold a stockholders ' meeting without my approval . bill : you know , i have every right to call a meeting . i own a lot of spaulding stock , and i do n't like some guy fresh out of the funny farm running the outfit . phillip : that attitude towards mental illness is not only ignorant and outdated , it 's also rude . bill : yeah , yeah , yeah . well , sick in the head is sick in the head , right ? besides , you should be thanking me . i 'm just trying to lighten your load a little bit so you 'll have more time to do a little something , you know , less taxing . what do you do down on crazy street , basket weaving ? is that how you spend your time ? phillip : you should watch your mouth . bill : well , just telling it like it is . in fact , last night , after a very nice love session with olivia , we were talking about you and your time in the nut hatch . ( laughs ) you are always good for a few laughs . ( laughs ) oh ... my , my , my . jeffrey : cassie , i told you before there were accomplices involved . that woman was obviously one of them , okay ? she was covering for dinah . cassie : she 'd be willing to go to jail for dinah ? jeffrey : dinah must have had something on her . cassie : maybe . i thought dinah was gone . i thought i would never even have to see her again . jeffrey : well , you know , the good news is she 's locked up now , cassie . she 's locked up . cassie : she 's here . she 's in town . and she had rj in her arms . and if she was the imposture after all , then she was in this house and she was around all the time . jeffrey : you know , i 'm so sorry . i should have done a better job of protecting you . if i was doing my job right dinah marler would have never shown up here last night . cassie : it does n't matter . but she needs to be punished . and she needs to suffer like i 've suffered . jeffrey : well , i 'm going to get back to the station . cassie : wait . can you stay for a while ? please ? edmund : what makes you think i started the fire ? dinah : jeffrey came into the barn to start the generator , you followed him in , snuck up behind him and cracked him with the shovel . jeffrey dropped his lantern , and that caused the barn to go up in flames . you were wanting to get out of there , leave him there to roast , but a spasm of conscious hit you and you came back in to pull him out . did i forget anything ? edmund : yes , what do you want ? dinah : i want a simple agreement : you keep my secrets and i keep yours . look , as far as deals go with the devil , this is n't so bad . and even if it were , you ca n't afford to turn this down . tammy : joey , when you did n't show up last night i had a lot of time to think it over . the last thing that sex should be is casual . so why rush it , right ? we have all the time in the world . marina : that 's what i love about you , lizzie . the more clueless you are , the more you mouth off . lizzie : i do n't quite know what you 're talking about , marina . marina : this is my uncle , henry copper bradshaw . coop , this is the notorious lizzie spaulding . coop : it 's nice to meet you , i think . lizzie : right . you must be the son that buzz is so ashamed of . which is something else , because frank 's so out of control lately . marina : my father is not out of control . lizzie : oh , no , out of control at all . he just pulled a gun on my grandfather , which is so much class . oh , but that 's a copper for you , i guess . coop : wait , wait , wait . hey , hold on . lizzie : no , it 's okay . it 's all right . let her go . it 's been how long since you 've been arrested ? like what , a couple of weeks ? marina : yeah , you know , maybe i can share a jail cell with your aunt alex . coop : okay . all right . i guess i missed a lot around here , have n't i ? lizzie : have n't missed a thing . coopers are always trying to go after the spauldings , and they always lose . marina : shut up . lizzie : what ? it 's not like i 'm making it up or anything . what , buzz went after my dad . and he had a heart attack , yeah . and then your dad went after my grandfather and he got fired from chief of police . and then harley tried marrying gus , and that did n't happen either . i think your family needs some help . and you should think about changing your name . marina : oh . coop : hey . hold on , hold on . wait a second , wait a second . wait , you know what ? here . look at me . you know what ? i think i 'm going to stick around for a while , and i 'm going to make sure that the spauldings get what they deserve . marina : yeah , well , welcome to our world . phillip : you know , bill , if you 're trying to get a rise out of me , you 'll have to do better than that . what you ladies gossip about in bed is really of no concern to me . although i will tell you , when olivia was in bed with me we did n't spending a lot of time talking about other men . bill : well , you know , maybe you never stayed there long enough . phillip : ( laughs ) bill : you know , maybe i may have that problem . easy there , phillip . easy . settle down . phillip : no , that 's all right , bill . actually , i find you very amusing . bill : do you ? really ? hey , i got a tip for you . maybe you should take a walk down to the hat store . they have a two - for - one special : one for your head and one for that thing that 's bulging out of your neck . my goodness , is that thing going to pop ? is that how you spauldings mutate ? am i are going to have little spauldings running around here ? just give me a fair warning . give me fair warning . maybe you should just take a swing at me . huh ? you want to take a swing at me ? you 'll feel so much better . huh ? phillip : you 'd like that would n't you , bill ? yeah , you would love that , because then you could go back to the stockholders and you can say , `` oh , god , he 's going crazy again . he attacked me . `` if you 'll excuse me , i have more important things to do . bill : wow , olivia 's right . you are nuts . harley : boy , you are nasty when you want to be . bill : i got to tell you , it was fun . harley : should we see where he 's going ? bill : after you . edmund : deals , secrets . you 're turning everything upside down . dinah : it was my fault that cassie made love to jeffrey in washington ? edmund : shut up ! dinah : i 'm curious . have you forgiven cassie for her little indiscretion ? edmund : cassie and i are none of your business . dinah : oh , so in other words , she has n't admitted it and you have n't gone past it . speaking of things to get past , i need your help in one other matter : the murder charge against me . edmund : what do you want me to do , set fire to a barn with the jury inside ? dinah : that 's not a bad idea . i was thinking of something of the more subtle persuasion . if cassie testifies that i was n't in the right mind when i shot hart , if i really did n't know what i was doing at the time , i think that i could get the sympathy of the jury . edmund : why would cassie help you out in court ? she 'd sooner step in front of a bus . dinah : i saved rj 's life . edmund : and you also tried to take hers the night you killed hart . dinah : edmund , you 've been a very good friend to me , but i need you to be one a little bit longer . i 'm going to be forced to tell cassie that you 're the one that caused the fire . now , i keep trying to tell you that i 'm not the one that set all this trouble in motion . jeffrey is the one to blame . edmund : well , maybe on some things we still agree . cassie : thanks . jeffrey : sure . cassie : i guess i 'm just ... jeffrey : in shock . cassie : yeah , i guess i am . i just keep seeing her arms around my child , you know . how did i not know that she was here ? how did i not figure it out , or feel it ? there were no alarm bells that went off , no red flags , nothing . how am i ever going to trust my instincts again ? jeffrey : there 's nothing wrong with your instincts , cassie . and you should be thankful that you did n't allow yourself to go into that twisted place that is her mind . i mean , i wish that i hadn't . cassie : what are you talking about ? you just met her . jeffrey : well , i know i just met her , but i have this , you know , ability with the criminal mind . i understand it . it 's my job , you know . so i just met her , but i know her . cassie : then get her put away -- forever . jeffrey : i promise you i 'm going to do everything i can so that she never hurts you or anyone else ever again , okay ?

[ scene_break ] lucky : so this thing with dante . you love him , right ? lulu : so much . it 's crazy . clearly . i just -- i do n't want to get so wrapped up in what we have that i lose myself . lucky : but even if he was ready for marriage , you would still say no . lulu : from what i 've seen , saying `` i do `` is the fastest way to kill a relationship . i mean , look at maxie and spinelli . theirs was a non - marriage , and it was still a beginning to an end . lucky : yeah , but it does n't mean that it has to be like that for you guys . lulu : and after everything you 've been through , you still believe in happily ever afters ? lucky : i did n't say it was going to be a fairy tale , okay ? i 'm just saying that marriage works for some people . lulu : but what dante and i have right now works , so why would i mess with that ? i mean , for the first time , i feel like i can let my guard down and love somebody completely because i know that dante would never hurt me .

[ scene_break ] lulu : i know there 's no such thing as happily ever after , which makes you wonder why people get married in the first place . lucky : it 's not a piece of paper or vows that make a difference . it 's just human nature that messes things up , you know ? we have unrealistic expectations . we think that if a person truly loves us , they should act the way we want them to , say the right thing , buy the right gift or whatever . and we assume that we know each other so well , we should be able to read each other 's minds . and all of those assumptions , over time , just lead to a lot of disappointments . but look , if a guy ever tells you that you complete him ? run . just run for the hills . because we 're no good to anyone if we 're not a whole person ourselves . lulu : okay . um , that 's some brotherly wisdom . lucky : it 's from the school of hard knocks . look , just do n't assume anything , okay ? just ask dante what 's bothering him , what he 's feeling , and actually listen to his answer . what ? lulu : you know how hard it is to get a man to discuss his feelings ? lucky : i did n't say it was going to be easy . but i mean , that 's what it 's going to take . you have to be able to be honest and see the other person for who they really are . you guys are going to have to be able to be that vulnerable and transparent with each other if you have any chance of making it . look , just promise me , do n't make any other person your salvation or whatever , because that 's just ridiculous . lulu : well , i mean , i have it easy . dante does n't represent anything . lucky : good . lulu : he 's simply the man that i love . [ scene_break ] jason : i 'm not defending dante . i have n't changed my opinion of him or what he did . carly : then i do n't see the problem . you do n't like him , i do n't like him , and i 'm willing to do something about it . jason : it just has to be over now , carly . carly : so dante and lulu get away with causing michael so much suffering -- jason : who cares what anyone gets away with ? every wrench comes back to bite you and michael . carly : i would never let this touch michael . jason : you got to be -- you 're kidding yourself right now . if anything happens to dante or lulu , michael 's going to know that you 're behind it . he does n't want anyone getting revenge in his name . carly : then let 's not call it revenge . let 's call it justice -- 'cause that 's exactly what it is . dante needs to feel exactly the way michael felt , and lulu ? well , hell , she needs to know what happens when you betray the people you 're supposed to care about .

julia : i suppose -- yes . livia : you do n't like to say lily ca n't do anything . julia : lily 's bright and interesting , honest and kind , and i think that she has a lot of capabilities that people might overlook . she is rare , and i respect her . livia : have you seen dramatic improvements in lily 's life skills ? julia : yes , since she became involved with jonathan , which i think began in my class . she has become more decisive , more open to change , and that 's a big leap . she went from a girl to a young woman . and i 'm very happy for her . who would n't be ? attorney : and you kept your brother hidden , even though he 'd committed murder ? livia : objection , your honor . this is a competency hearing . this is not a revisitation of old news . jonathan lavery was cleared of any and all charges in this courtroom by reason of mental defect . attorney : goes to show the strong emotional bond between lily lavery 's husband and his sister . judge : keep it moving . attorney : did you hide your brother ? erin : yes . attorney : and then discovered his violent actions were caused by a brain tumor ? erin : yes , and antipsychotics a doctor had mistakenly prescribed . he went off the meds , he had the tumor removed . attorney : and was mentally impaired for a time as a result . is he now , as jack claims , healed ? erin : he did have some dizziness , but the doctor said his ct scan was clear . attorney : is he normal , no longer impaired ? erin : does he sometimes speak more clearly ? sure . but does he also get flustered and confused ? yes . i mean , is he well ? he is healthy , and he 's happy , and he 's in love . he 's as well as anyone i 've ever met . attorney : in what way does your disorder affect you ? lily : i have trouble understanding other people 's emotions . attorney : if someone 's angry -- lily : i can tell . their eyebrows are pushed in and their mouth is turned down . attorney : and your communication skills ? lily : i always tell the truth , which is a good thing . attorney : and loud sounds ? how do they make you feel ? lily : anxious . but my husband , jonathan , taught me to understand thunder and to not be afraid . he told me to focus on the good noise when there 's excess noise . attorney : the color red . lily : i have sunglasses . attorney : you have a lot of issues , do n't you ? lily : yes , and a lot of strategies to deal with them . i 'm very lucky in that way . livia : you work at confusion , which is a new bar in town . you work with lily . amanda : she works in the backroom . she 's not 21 , so she does inventory , and she helps us with the books . livia : ooh . that is a big job for an incompetent woman . amanda : lily can work numbers like you would n't believe . stuff that would take me a computer , a 100-page manual , and a date with a tech geek , lily knocks out in five minutes . she is part of the team , and we count on her . livia : you hate your daughter 's husband . jack : i hate what he 's doing to her -- lying to her , manipulating her . he 's got her trapped . i 'm just hoping to give her a way out here . livia : lily does n't feel trapped . jack : well , i think that 's even more proof that she needs help . livia : or proof that you ca n't let your daughter go ? attorney : objection . livia : nothing further . judge : anything else , counselor ? attorney : yes , your honor . we 'd like to recall lily montgomery lavery to the stand . tell me about when you ran away a few months ago . lily : my father wanted me to go back to my old boarding school , but i did n't want to go . attorney : what did you do ? lily : i hid from him and got off the train in new york city . and i had a plan for jonathan to meet me in boston . attorney : but it did n't work out that way , did it ? lily : no . i left my purse and my phone . attorney : well , how did you live without money ? lily : i collected coins from strangers on the street . a lot of people do that , but they do n't like the new people on their turf , so i tried to find quiet and safe places to sleep . attorney : did anything scare you ? lily : his name was terry . attorney : you were in this man 's hotel room . lily : that was mine , but he paid for it . attorney : and bought you clothes and food and alcohol , which you drank . was it your idea to drink it or terry 's ? lily : it was terry 's . attorney : how did he convince you ? lily : he told me that all adults drink and that it would n't get me sick this time . attorney : was that the truth ? lily : no . attorney : but you could n't tell that at the time ? lily : no . attorney : do you always do what strangers tell you to do ? lily : no . he told me to do other things , but i did n't do them . attorney : what other things ? in order , as you recall them . lily : to take off my shirt . attorney : and did you do it ? lily : yes , but i did n't like it . attorney : why 'd you do it ? lily : because he had asked me to . and he told me that he 'd help me and -- attorney : what else did he ask you to do ? lily : have sex . but i told him i did n't want to . he just said that i needed practice . attorney : did you practice ? lily : no . attorney : how did you protect yourself ? lily : i did n't . jonathan -- attorney : you did n't protect yourself . you could n't even try . lily : no , he was n't bad . he was n't mean . he was n't mad at -- attorney : so that meant he was a good man ? lily : no , no . he was bad . he was very bad . jack : your honor , i believe that the witness could use a break . lily : no ! no , i do n't need a break , and i do n't need help ! i 'm an adult , and i 'm competent ! i love jonathan . i do n't need a guardian ! i can run my own life ! you ca n't take it away from me . i 'm competent ! no , no , no , no .

[ holding her face in his hands , zach passionately kisses dixie . ] | lily 's competency hearing is underway . before it starts , erica urges jack to give it some time before going through with it . ryan come to confront jack and asks him how he could do something so drastic and tells him it will only hurt his daughter . in response to that , jack informs ryan that his brother is fully functional and has only been faking the `` mentally challenged `` state that he is in . and he does n't want to find out what other kinds of lies and cons jonathan may have pulled or plans to pull with lily . hearing that , ryan is really surprised and demands that his brother tells him honestly if he is really back to the fully functional jonathan . jonathan admits to ryan that he is but he wo n't let lily know because she will feel all alone without having him the way she knows him to be . livia represents lily and jonathan and calls many witnesses to confirm that lily is more than competent and that she and jonathan have a real love together . zach informs kendall that the only way he can beat the murder charges is to have the court believing that he is , in fact , having an affair with dixie . she is a little worried about how she 's going to pull off a facade that husband does not love her and has cheated on her . tad is really upset with this belief that dixie may be sleeping with zach . josh starts working and coming up with many ideas for fusion after babe has hired him . erica and kendall come by and watch him hugging babe . | <s>[INST] erin : you are much too gullible . you unravel when you hear loud noises or yelling . you ca n't stand to be touched . you rock in the corner and count to yourself . you need a guardian to manage your life for you . you 're incompetent , lily . lily : are they going to say it just like that , while i 'm on the stand ? erin : all we can do is guess till we get into the courtroom . but your father wants your marriage to jonathan annulled , and the first step is proving that you 're incompetent today . my guess is he is going to do whatever it takes to win . [ scene_break ] jack : how long have you been standing there ? erica : long enough to see you destroy a piece of paper . jack , i know you think that you 're protecting lily , but i do n't think -- jack : erica , we 've been over this and over this and over this . now , jonathan is keeping his miraculous recovery a secret . why ? and if he 's hiding that , what else is he hiding ? i am not going to put my daughter at risk waiting to find out .

julia : i suppose -- yes . livia : you do n't like to say lily ca n't do anything . julia : lily 's bright and interesting , honest and kind , and i think that she has a lot of capabilities that people might overlook . she is rare , and i respect her . livia : have you seen dramatic improvements in lily 's life skills ? julia : yes , since she became involved with jonathan , which i think began in my class . she has become more decisive , more open to change , and that 's a big leap . she went from a girl to a young woman . and i 'm very happy for her . who would n't be ? attorney : and you kept your brother hidden , even though he 'd committed murder ? livia : objection , your honor . this is a competency hearing . this is not a revisitation of old news . jonathan lavery was cleared of any and all charges in this courtroom by reason of mental defect . attorney : goes to show the strong emotional bond between lily lavery 's husband and his sister . judge : keep it moving . attorney : did you hide your brother ? erin : yes . attorney : and then discovered his violent actions were caused by a brain tumor ? erin : yes , and antipsychotics a doctor had mistakenly prescribed . he went off the meds , he had the tumor removed . attorney : and was mentally impaired for a time as a result . is he now , as jack claims , healed ? erin : he did have some dizziness , but the doctor said his ct scan was clear . attorney : is he normal , no longer impaired ? erin : does he sometimes speak more clearly ? sure . but does he also get flustered and confused ? yes . i mean , is he well ? he is healthy , and he 's happy , and he 's in love . he 's as well as anyone i 've ever met . attorney : in what way does your disorder affect you ? lily : i have trouble understanding other people 's emotions . attorney : if someone 's angry -- lily : i can tell . their eyebrows are pushed in and their mouth is turned down . attorney : and your communication skills ? lily : i always tell the truth , which is a good thing . attorney : and loud sounds ? how do they make you feel ? lily : anxious . but my husband , jonathan , taught me to understand thunder and to not be afraid . he told me to focus on the good noise when there 's excess noise . attorney : the color red . lily : i have sunglasses . attorney : you have a lot of issues , do n't you ? lily : yes , and a lot of strategies to deal with them . i 'm very lucky in that way . livia : you work at confusion , which is a new bar in town . you work with lily . amanda : she works in the backroom . she 's not 21 , so she does inventory , and she helps us with the books . livia : ooh . that is a big job for an incompetent woman . amanda : lily can work numbers like you would n't believe . stuff that would take me a computer , a 100-page manual , and a date with a tech geek , lily knocks out in five minutes . she is part of the team , and we count on her . livia : you hate your daughter 's husband . jack : i hate what he 's doing to her -- lying to her , manipulating her . he 's got her trapped . i 'm just hoping to give her a way out here . livia : lily does n't feel trapped . jack : well , i think that 's even more proof that she needs help . livia : or proof that you ca n't let your daughter go ? attorney : objection . livia : nothing further . judge : anything else , counselor ? attorney : yes , your honor . we 'd like to recall lily montgomery lavery to the stand . tell me about when you ran away a few months ago . lily : my father wanted me to go back to my old boarding school , but i did n't want to go . attorney : what did you do ? lily : i hid from him and got off the train in new york city . and i had a plan for jonathan to meet me in boston . attorney : but it did n't work out that way , did it ? lily : no . i left my purse and my phone . attorney : well , how did you live without money ? lily : i collected coins from strangers on the street . a lot of people do that , but they do n't like the new people on their turf , so i tried to find quiet and safe places to sleep . attorney : did anything scare you ? lily : his name was terry . attorney : you were in this man 's hotel room . lily : that was mine , but he paid for it . attorney : and bought you clothes and food and alcohol , which you drank . was it your idea to drink it or terry 's ? lily : it was terry 's . attorney : how did he convince you ? lily : he told me that all adults drink and that it would n't get me sick this time . attorney : was that the truth ? lily : no . attorney : but you could n't tell that at the time ? lily : no . attorney : do you always do what strangers tell you to do ? lily : no . he told me to do other things , but i did n't do them . attorney : what other things ? in order , as you recall them . lily : to take off my shirt . attorney : and did you do it ? lily : yes , but i did n't like it . attorney : why 'd you do it ? lily : because he had asked me to . and he told me that he 'd help me and -- attorney : what else did he ask you to do ? lily : have sex . but i told him i did n't want to . he just said that i needed practice . attorney : did you practice ?

on gc buzz ! kyle : i 'm sure victoria and nick are all over it . abby : i 'm sorry , when did my last name stop being newman ? kyle : that 's not what i 'm -- abby : you know , when it comes to that side of the family , i am always the last to know . always . kyle : it may feel that way , but -- abby : please , just -- stop helping . [ scoffs ] what do they do ? what do they do when they get this sort of information ? what , they just -- they sit on it for a while , and then they think , `` oh , yeah ! yeah , maybe we should tell abby about this . `` well ? kyle : oh ! um , i thought you wanted me to sit the rest of this one out . but let 's focus on the matter at hand . your dad . you think he did it ? abby : of course not ! why is everyone always jumping to the worst conclusion when it comes to my dad ? kyle : i ca n't speak for everyone , but it 's kind of hard to forget what he did to my dad not too long ago . abby : and he paid for that crime . it does n't mean he 's guilty of this one . i have to go . kyle : where ? abby : to the police station . this is a load of bull . kyle : you do n't want to make things worse . abby : i have to see my dad . kyle : abby , you -- abby : you know what , just stop , okay ? stop worrying about my life and start working on fixing your own . billy : you 're sure everything 's okay ? it feels like i walked in on something . cane : no . victoria : cane and i were just discussing reed and charlie 's involvement in mom 's accident and , um , how to deal with things . cane : hang on a second . why would you have told him that ? victoria : well , i needed to confide in someone . cane : okay , but you told the last person i would trust with my personal business . billy : this is n't about you , cane . this is about her . she has a right to talk to whoever she wants . cane : okay , that might be , but , you know , i was trying to protect my family . i know that 's a foreign concept to you . billy : that 's actually rich coming from you . cane : it 's really important to me , you know , family , that we keep things between us . billy : well , victoria and i trust each other , and she knows that she can tell me anything , right , vick ? victoria : right . right . but you do n't have to worry because i do n't want people knowing our private business , either . cane : good . good , good . so , uh , we 're on the same page , right ? victoria : oh , indeed . cane : yeah . victoria : i 'll walk you out . billy : hold on a second . what did you two decide about reed and charlie ? cane : um , that i 'm gon na go and talk to charlie . victoria : yeah , billy and i are gon na talk it over , as well . cane : that 's a good idea . victoria : yeah . cane : okay . all right . billy : is it just me , or is something going on with him ? kyle : hey . lola : hey . kyle : good day ? lola : busy . kyle : people love your food . lola : if you came back for a sandwich , i -- kyle : i came back to explain . about what you walked in on between fen and me . lola : okay , well , i have to finish cleaning up here , and then i have to start prepping for tomorrow . kyle : ca n't you stop for a minute ? lola : no , not if i want to make a living . kyle : fine . i 'll wipe while i talk . lola : have you ever cleaned a table before ? kyle : i 'm trying , lola ! lola : yeah , well , you missed a spot right there . kyle : look ! i know we 're a million worlds apart right now , but that does n't change the way i feel about you . i -- the last couple days have sucked . damn it . not the right words . i want to hear what you 're saying , understand where i went wrong so i never , ever do it again . what i 'm trying to say is ... please , just give me a chance . cane : charlie ! will you come in the kitchen , please ? charlie ! charlie : hey , hey , what 's up ? cane : where 's your sister ? charlie : the library . where else ? cane : good , because you and i need to have a conversation . charlie : um , all right . about what ? cane : about nikki newman 's accident . charlie : okay . cane : okay . i know you were in the car with reed the night that nikki was hit . charlie : how do you -- cane : because victoria told me , because reed confessed ! cane : look , dad , i can explain . cane : what ? you can explain what ? how you lied to everybody about this ? charlie : i hated keeping quiet . cane : then why did you do it ? charlie : i do n't know ! cane : you do n't know ? okay . do you realize how many bad decisions you 've made here ? first , there was the drinking , then there was letting someone with a suspended driver 's license take you around , and then you leave the scene of an accident . how could you do this after what happened to hilary ? how could you leave a woman for dead on the side of the road ? ! billy : you sure you do n't want something stronger ? victoria : no . i have to keep a clear head . billy : cane got to you , did n't he ? victoria : it 's just awkward . all of this bad blood over juliet and brash & sassy , and now cane and i have to work together to protect our sons , and ... billy : i hope i did n't make things worse . victoria : uh , no , the tension between cane and me has nothing to do with you . there 's just so much going on with mom and reed . he left this morning , and he has n't checked in with me at all . billy : should i go look for him ? victoria : [ sighs ] [ cellphone chimes ] oh , no need . he 's at a friend 's . he 's not gon na be late . billy : well , that 's one piece of good news today . victoria : what do you mean ? is there bad news ? billy : you have n't heard . victoria : no , i haven't . is it mom ? billy : no . no , your mom 's fine , but it 's your dad . he 's been charged with j.t . 's murder . victoria : that 's impossible . he 's innocent . billy : look , it 's gon na be all right , vick . victoria : [ sighs ] i wish that were true , but it 's not . mariah : oh , abby -- abby : oh , no , you don't . mariah : excuse me ? abby : i saw your lame attempt at reporting . mariah : just because you did n't like the news , abby ... abby : it was garbage . congratulations . it took you less than six months to take gc buzz lower than hilary ever did . you made an innocent man look like a murderer . mariah : innocent ? really ? victor ? and , by the way , i never said that he was guilty . i was just reporting that he was arrested for murder , which he was . abby : and then handed the mic to a detective who 's trying to pin the crime on him . you only told the cop 's side of the story . how is that fair reporting ? mariah : i tried to talk to victor . i was n't allowed to see him since he does n't have a lawyer . abby : well , then you should n't have reported anything , especially should n't have reported lies . mariah : i reported the facts ! abby : you twisted them . just like the cops did to try and make my dad look guilty . [ scoffs ] he did n't kill j.t . someone else did . but you do n't care . all you care about is getting the big story . mariah : i was just doing my job . abby : well , a good reporter tries to uncover the truth . but you do n't care about that . all you care about is ratings , and crucifying victor newman -- wow , that 's a ratings gold mine for your pathetic little show . mariah : you know what , i am sure victor will have the chance to defend himself . abby : thanks to you , he 's already been tried in the court of public opinion . [ scoffs ] and , meanwhile , someone else , the real killer is getting off scot- free . mariah : you know what , abby , it 's not my job to solve this murder , okay ? it 's the police 's job . abby : you know what you 're doing is wrong . and when this is over , my dad will make you pay for that . every day , people are fighting type 2 diabetes with food , `` the young and the restless `` will continue . kyle : i know we come from different backgrounds , but i really want to understand the kind of life you 've had , what makes you the way you are , why you reacted the way you did . lola : you know , maybe you should take a closer look at yourself instead of putting me under a microscope . kyle : i did n't mean for it to sound like that . i 'm just trying to figure out where i went wrong , why what i did , to upset you so much -- lola : it 's not that hard to get ! kyle : okay , okay . you grew up with your values . they make sense to you . lola : and they do n't to you . kyle : no . i mean , yes . i 'm saying all the wrong things , but ... i really want to get this right . if you 'll just give me a chance ... lola : you know , you 're just making this so much more complicated than it already is . kyle : okay , you do n't like expensive things because they 're a waste of your hard - earned money . i get that . but i can afford to buy them for you . are you really gon na punish me for that ? lola : wow . you just have really no clue where i 'm coming from . kyle : and fen does ? fen : hey . good afternoon , guys . here 's a menu . so , we have some specials today . mariah : the last thing in the world that i need is a run - in with that guy . tessa : fen ? what did he do ? mariah : i 'm just sick of the 1 % . even the ones who pretend like they have to wait tables to make a living . tessa : okay . do you want to talk about it ? mariah : i had a run - in with abby at the police station , and she took the opportunity to give me some very constructive criticism . tessa : what , did she not like your off - brand designer shoes ? mariah : no , she did n't like my reporting . tessa : oh , the story you did on victor . mariah : mm - hmm . `` garbage `` she called it , actually . tessa : wow , i mean , dude 's her dad . you ca n't really be surprised that she 's defending him . mariah : no , but she ripped me to shreds in the process . tessa : well , i 'm sorry that you had to deal with the brunt of her anger , but , knowing you , you clapped back . mariah : as much as i could , but she 's not wrong . tessa : you were just doing your job . mariah : that 's what i keep telling myself . tessa : okay , no , i saw that broadcast . there was no malicious intent in it . you were just reporting a story . mariah : yeah , but it 's not the whole story . you know ? i helped put a lie out there . tessa : rey made the arrest , not you . mariah : yeah , but you and i both know who really killed j.t . , and it was n't victor . abby : i do n't care what your boss says , i want to see my father ! rey : okay , okay . i got this . abby : you 've made a big mistake . rey : i was gon na say the same thing . verbally assaulting a police officer usually does n't end well for the person doing it . abby : i 'm not in the mood for jokes . rey : it was a friendly warning . dial down the moral outrage . abby : my father is not a murderer ! rey : well , that 's up for a jury to decide . abby : this is a mockery of justice ! i want to see my father ! rey : he 's not allowed any visitors yet . abby : you 're really not gon na let me see him ? rey : not until he 's fully processed . abby : what -- what , you think i 'm an accomplice ? is that really what you think of the woman who 's seeing your brother ? rey : i did n't say that . abby : look , please -- please , i -- i just want to see my father . i want to make sure he 's okay . i -- i want to let him know that i 'm here for him . rey : a few minutes . that 's all . come on . victor : hi , my sweetheart . abby : dad . victor : hi , my sweetheart . cane : so you had no idea that reed hit someone that night ? charlie : mnh - mnh . i was so messed up that shauna broke up with me , and then by the time i got to the car , you know , i was drinking . i could n't think or see clearly . cane : [ sighs ] oh , man , i should have kept a closer eye on you . charlie : no , dad , this is n't your fault . cane : [ sighs ] why did n't you come and talk to me about this ? charlie : because i thought the alcohol would make things better . cane : okay . charlie : it just made things worse . i could n't even drive my car . cane : reed should not have been driving that car with a suspended license , buddy . charlie : he was just trying to keep me out of trouble . cane : okay , and i bet he regrets that decision now . charlie : when he found out it was his grandmother that we hit , he was sick ! if we had any idea , we would have stopped and called an ambulance . we did n't find out it was mrs . newman until later . cane : victoria said that reed wanted to come forward and confess but you talked him out of it . is this true ? charlie : i kept thinking about what happened to mom and i panicked . cane : [ sighs ] all right , okay , you were scared . i understand . i do . charlie : i just -- i did n't want our family to go through something like that again , i -- cane : okay . charlie : god , i wish i could go back and erase that whole night ! you must hate me . cane : no . no . no , no , no . i do n't hate you . i do n't hate you . charlie : i keep going over and over it . i mean , how did we not see mrs . newman ? how did we not know it was a person that we hit ? cane : all right , okay . charlie : we left her there . cane : it was n't intentional , okay ? you did n't do this intentionally . charlie : what does that matter ? it does n't make a difference . if mrs . newman dies , how am i supposed to live with that ? hy - a - luronic acid dental insurance . many employers do n't offer it . medicare does n't include it . and people who work for themselves often do n't consider it . but with humana you can still have it . starting at just $ 17 a month . that 's less than 60 cents a day . call today for a free quote . with a humana dental plan you 'll get 100 % coverage for in - network preventive care such as oral exams , cleanings , and x - rays . plus , you 'll save on fillings , crowns and other dental procedures . and you ca n't be turned down because of age or pre - existing conditions . with a large network of dentists and specialists and a variety of affordable plans , you 're sure to find one to fit your family 's needs and budget . plus , humana has vision plans too . with coverage for exams , eye glasses , and more . how much could you save ?

mariah : [ sighs ] that would be a relief , yeah . you know ? this -- this secret is destroying so many people 's lives . and i wish i could just tell the truth and get it off my chest . tessa : okay . well , do n't light me on fire for saying this , but , if you do , your mom 's probably gon na get arrested as an accessory to murder . mariah : i just wish there was a way to prove that j.t . 's death was in self- defense . i mean , maybe rey could do that . tessa : no . he would toss victoria , phyllis , nikki , and sharon into a cell and throw away the key . mariah : there are no good choices here . tessa : well , i mean , if it makes you feel better , you 've told me victor 's committed crimes , and maybe he did n't kill j.t . , but maybe he deserves to be in jail . mariah : that is such a warped sense of justice . tessa : yeah , well , you know the way that rey does his job . someone is gon na go down for j.t . 's murder , and better victor than your mom , hmm ? abby : this is ridiculous . victor : i know . abby : denying you bail ? i mean , do they really think you 're gon na try to escape ? yes , you were on a private jet trying to leave the country when rey found you , but ... you would n't try to do that again . victor : you know , if the jury were made up of 12 people like you , i would n't have to worry about these inane charges . abby : you should n't have to worry about it at all . victor : how 'd you get by this ambitious detective out here ? abby : i 'm not gon na let him push me around . victor : that 's my girl . abby : i 've been so worried about you . victor : it 's temporary , okay ? abby : but this is n't right . you should n't be in here . it 's not good for you . it 's not good for your health . victor : sweetheart , i 'm all right . but i 'm worried about you . abby : i 'm okay . victor : how about the new restaurant that you 're opening ? i mean , this bad publicity may affect your business . abby : how 'd you know about that ? victor : what do you mean ? even though i 'm not around , i do n't care about what 's going on with my children ? abby : even though i left newman ? victor : i will never stop caring about you . tessa : looks like he could use a friend . mariah : what are you looking at me for ? tessa : well , you said you wanted to be a better person . here 's your chance . i 'm off job hunting . i 'll see you soon . mariah : hey . fen : hey . mariah : you look like you 're having as bad of a day as i am . fen : i have had better . mariah : what are you working on ? fen : uh , my music , which is going nowhere fast , just like the rest of my life . mariah : whoa . what happened to that cocky guy that i ran into at crimson lights a few weeks ago ? fen : have you ever done something really stupid that you just , i do n't know , wish you could take back ? mariah : one or two million times , yeah . fen : yeah . yeah , you know , sometimes i wish i could just [ sighs ] keep my big mouth shut . mariah : actually , i 'm currently working on the same thing , as well . if you have n't noticed , i tend to go a little bit overboard on the snark . fen : ahh . you 're not planning on changing that , are you ? i mean , that 's -- that 's kind of your currency . mariah : yeah , but it 's hard to buy stuff when nobody 's interested in what you 're selling . so , my advice -- why do n't you tone it down a little bit , as for a do - over ? fen : you think ? mariah : it certainly ca n't hurt . fen : you 're right . it can't . oh , um ... thank you . kyle : of all the stupid things i 've said today , that one was the stupidest . lola : hope that means you know that my breaking up with you had nothing to do with fen . kyle : you 're mad that i spent so much on that purse . lola : i am so frustrated because you do n't understand why it upsets me ! kyle : i want to ! i do ! if you 'll just explain it -- lola : no , i thought you knew me . god , i thought you knew me well enough to realize that a gift that expensive would make me extremely uncomfortable . kyle : because you ca n't afford to buy me things like that . lola : that 's part of it . kyle : the other part ? go ahead . say it . lola : i do n't want to be with someone who uses their money to show me how much they care . kyle : wow . okay . well , i asked for it . lola : i 'm sorry , that 's just how i feel . kyle : no . no , no , no . i want you to be honest with me . i want to do the same for you . lola : go for it . kyle : growing up ... it was mostly just me and my mom . she felt bad that my dad was n't around . so she tried to make feel loved by buying me things . it 's just how i grew up , learning that you show your love for someone by giving them expensive gifts . the more expensive the gift ... ... the more you were loved . and dad and victor ... everybody who came into my life did the same thing . nobody worried about how much things cost . extravagant gifts , they were n't a bad thing . just the opposite . but you 're right . i know it was n't like that for you . i get that now . i 'm sorry that i did n't before . i would never want to do anything to hurt you or cross any boundaries that would make you feel uncomfortable . that 's why i did n't push you about sex . i knew you were n't ready , and i respect that , and i -- i want to respect your boundaries about money , too . lola : uh , you 're saying all the right things . kyle : i mean them . i do . i can change . i will change for you because ... you 're the only one i want to be with . and i will do whatever it takes to make it work between us . so , please ... just give me a chance to prove it to you . kyle : does this mean we 're back together ? lola : do you think i would be kissing you like this if we were n't ? kyle : mnh - mnh . cane : [ sighs ] all right , well , the hospital wo n't give me any information on nikki 's condition . charlie : if she does n't make it , i could end up in jail like mom ! cane : all right , listen , let 's just wait until we hear more , okay ? charlie : [ sighs ] cane : okay ? charlie : i screwed up . i screwed up bad . cane : all right , listen . i 'm gon na go and talk to victoria tomorrow , all right ? reed is in this as deep as you are , and she 'll figure out something that involves you guys not going to jail , all right ? charlie : you think that 's possible ? cane : listen , i 'm gon na protect you , all right ? i promise you . come here . come here . i promise you , buddy . rey : time 's up . victor : she just got here . rey : i should n't have let her come in in the first place . abby : gee , thanks for the favor . rey : look , i know what it means to be a newman in this town . abby : you have no idea what it means . you think that we 're just a bunch of rich , spoiled , trust fund brats , but we 're a family . we stick together . and i do n't care who you are . i am gon na do everything in my power to prove that my father is innocent . victoria : do you ever feel like the universe is just conspiring against you ? billy : only every other day . victoria : i 'm serious . it 's hard enough dealing with mom 's accident and dad being awol , and then he finally shows up again , and he 's arrested for and now i find out that reed was driving the car that hit mom ... billy : you sure you do n't want a shot , or something ? victoria : no , billy . alcohol does not solve problems . billy : yeah , i know that , but it helps them go away for a little while . victoria : well , eventually , i 'm gon na have to face all of this , are n't i ? billy : look , i know it feels like you 're getting thrown six curve balls all at once , but if anyby ' handle that , it 's gon na be you . victoria : i 'm terrible at sports . billy : [ chuckles ] you 're gon na be fine . and you 're gon na carry your family on your back , like you always do . victoria : i could use a little help . billy : you got it . | cane and victoria kiss ends and victoria runs for the door with cane calling after her . cane follows victoria all the way to her house insisting they talk about the kiss and how no one can know . victoria agrees and chalks it up to the stress she has been under . billy arrives and notices the tension . victoria quickly tells him they were discussing the accident . cane and billy argue . cane leaves and victoria informs billy that she and cane need to work together to protect charlie and reed . victoria is relieved when she gets a text from reed . billy breaks the news about victor 's arrest for jt 's murder and victoria insists her father is innocent . billy offers his support and victoria then kisses him . at the coffee house fen taunts kyle that he forgot to wish him a happy new year because he was busy kissing the hottest girl in gc . kyle warns him to stay away from lola and insists they are only on a break . the two argue as lola walks up and tells them both that she does not belong to anyone and tells them to leave . back the the police station , victor warns rey that he will have a lot to answer for once he is proven innocent . abbey and kyle are at the athletic club talking about lola when abbey gets a text alert that mariah is at the police station reporting victor 's arrest for gc buzz . abbey is furious that she is the last to know and storms out . | <s>[INST] [ previously_on ] lola : if you ca n't understand why you spending that kind of money on me makes me uncomfortable , you do n't get me . kyle : lola ! are you saying we 're over ? christine : victor newman , you 're being charged with the murder of j.t . hellstrom . rey : you have the right to remain silent . reed : whoever kidnapped her was not the person who was driving the car . victoria : how do you know that ? reed : because it was me . i was driving . victoria : charlie wanted to lie and cover things up . i wonder where he got that from . he 's exactly like you , cane . cane : deep down inside , you think everyone 's as cold and as empty and as lonely as you are . victoria : i have to go . cane : victoria . victoria ! fen : thank you . hey ! hey , um , sorry , i did n't get to wish you a happy new year 's . i was kind of busy , you know , doing , uh ... kyle : yeah , getting used by lola to make me jealous . fen : oh , okay . yeah , yeah . keep telling yourself that . kyle : large coffee , please . fen : look , i know how you feel , all right ?

victor : once i 'm proven innocent , you have a lot to answer for . fen : you know what , you might as well get used to the idea , dude , because , you know , once me and lola start hitting up the gc hot spots , you are going to be seeing us together everywhere . kyle : yeah , keep dreaming . fen : i mean , we are going to blow up social media . i mean , you wo n't be able to open an app without seeing a photo of us . `` sick new recording artist and hot rising star chef heat up the club scene . `` i wo n't hold it against you if you do n't click `` like . `` just do n't be a hater , okay ?

abby : [ chuckles ] well , when you put it that way , it makes -- it makes sense . kyle : she knew what kind of life i lived . we joked about it . abby : well , i guess when you tried to force that life on her , it was n't funny anymore . kyle : i did n't mean to offend her . abby : i know that . and i 'm sure , deep down , she knows that , too . no matter who she kissed on new year 's eve . kyle : i really care about her , abby . abby : then talk to her . kyle : i tried . abby : try harder . kyle : i do n't know what i can say that i have n't already . abby : since when do you give up ? especially when it comes to a woman ? fen : when he knows he ca n't win . kyle : ah , you 're right about lighting up social media . everybody 's talking about your new single . what 's it called again ? oh , yeah . `` i 'm still waiting . `` fen : [ chuckles ] abby : oh , no . kyle : what 's wrong ? abby : it 's a gc buzz alert on my dad . kyle : has n't he been awol for weeks ? abby : yeah . mariah : this is mariah copeland with gc buzz , bringing you a live report from the gcpd headquarters where victor newman has just been arrested and charged with the murder of his former son - in - law j.t . hellstrom . abby : oh , my god . victoria : okay , well , no one 's here , so we can talk . cane : yeah , good , 'cause , uh , we need to address that kiss . victoria : no , actually , we don't . i -- i can explain why it happened . cane : okay . victoria : dad and nick had been arrested for kidnapping mom , who was near death because of a hit - and - run that i just recently learned was caused by my son . so it was a lot -- a lot of stress , a lot of pressure , and , at some point , it was bound to explode , which it did . cane : yeah . victoria : and i reacted by doing something stupid and reckless and impulsive . that 's all it was . there was nothing else because you and i , we are never gon na happen . cane : no , no , no , i mean , of course . i mean , it 's the last thing that 's going through my mind right now , you know ? victoria : oh , no , i just did n't want there to be any misunderstanding . cane : no , there 's no misunderstanding . there 's not , you know , because you have to understand , i 'm committed to my wife and i love her very much , and , you know , i 'm fighting really hard to keep my family together so that when she gets out of prison , i can pick up the pieces and , you know , we can just -- we can just move on , and just -- your son and my son were involved in that car accident , and ... look , before we talk about that , listen , i need to be really clear here . you -- you ca n't tell a single soul ever about the kiss . victoria : oh , no . no , no , no . nobody 's ever gon na hear about it from me . cane : because if lily finds out -- she 's in prison , and she 's suffering . if she thinks i betrayed her like that , it 's gon na kill her . and , look , i 'm gon na lose everything i have . i 'll lose my marriage and my kids . i 'll lose my family , okay ? so , please , will you look me in the eye right now and promise me that you will never , ever , ever tell a single soul about that ? okay . victoria : oh , hey ! hey , billy . hey . billy : am i interrupting something ? mariah : continuing our live report here at gcpd , where victor newman has been arrested . detective rosales , can you confirm that victor newman has been arrested for the murder of j.t . hellstrom ? rey : d.a . williams helped me get enough evidence to bring formal charges against mr . newman . mariah : but you do n't have a body yet . rey : the evidence we presented to the d.a . was extremely compelling , and when we apprehended the suspect , he attempted to flee the country . mariah : but what happens now ? rey : well , due to the severity of the charges , now mr . newman is a flight risk , and the judge denied bail . mariah : i 'm surprised his lawyer did n't fight that . rey : mr. newman refused to exercise his right to legal representation . mariah : do you think victor 's past criminal record has made you guys determined to pin this murder on him ? rey : the arrest we made is solely based on evidence we uncovered . our case is solid . mariah : you sound very confident . rey : innocent people do n't run . now , if you 'll excuse me ... mariah : well , that 's all the buzz we have for you today , folks . victor newman has been arrested for murder and denied bail . if we get any more details on this case , we will bring them to you live here on gc buzz . kyle : not what you expected to see on the news today ? abby : not what i expected to see on the news any day . kyle : your dad 's been arrested before . abby : oh ! well , when you put it that way , why not add another pesky murder charge ? kyle : i 'm sorry , i was n't trying to make light of it . abby : and how am i just finding out about this now ? on gc buzz ! kyle : i 'm sure victoria and nick are all over it . abby : i 'm sorry , when did my last name stop being newman ? kyle : that 's not what i 'm -- abby : you know , when it comes to that side of the family , i am always the last to know . always . kyle : it may feel that way , but -- abby : please , just -- stop helping . [ scoffs ] what do they do ? what do they do when they get this sort of information ? what , they just -- they sit on it for a while , and then they think , `` oh , yeah ! yeah , maybe we should tell abby about this . `` well ? kyle : oh ! um , i thought you wanted me to sit the rest of this one out . but let 's focus on the matter at hand . your dad . you think he did it ? abby : of course not ! why is everyone always jumping to the worst conclusion when it comes to my dad ? kyle : i ca n't speak for everyone , but it 's kind of hard to forget what he did to my dad not too long ago . abby : and he paid for that crime . it does n't mean he 's guilty of this one . i have to go . kyle : where ? abby : to the police station . this is a load of bull . kyle : you do n't want to make things worse . abby : i have to see my dad . kyle : abby , you -- abby : you know what , just stop , okay ? stop worrying about my life and start working on fixing your own . billy : you 're sure everything 's okay ? it feels like i walked in on something . cane : no . victoria : cane and i were just discussing reed and charlie 's involvement in mom 's accident and , um , how to deal with things . cane : hang on a second . why would you have told him that ? victoria : well , i needed to confide in someone . cane : okay , but you told the last person i would trust with my personal business . billy : this is n't about you , cane . this is about her . she has a right to talk to whoever she wants . cane : okay , that might be , but , you know , i was trying to protect my family . i know that 's a foreign concept to you . billy : that 's actually rich coming from you . cane : it 's really important to me , you know , family , that we keep things between us . billy : well , victoria and i trust each other , and she knows that she can tell me anything , right , vick ? victoria : right . right . but you do n't have to worry because i do n't want people knowing our private business , either . cane : good . good , good . so , uh , we 're on the same page , right ? victoria : oh , indeed . cane : yeah . victoria : i 'll walk you out . billy : hold on a second . what did you two decide about reed and charlie ? cane : um , that i 'm gon na go and talk to charlie . victoria : yeah , billy and i are gon na talk it over , as well . cane : that 's a good idea . victoria : yeah . cane : okay . all right . billy : is it just me , or is something going on with him ? kyle : hey . lola : hey . kyle : good day ? lola : busy . kyle : people love your food . lola : if you came back for a sandwich , i -- kyle : i came back to explain . about what you walked in on between fen and me . lola : okay , well , i have to finish cleaning up here , and then i have to start prepping for tomorrow . kyle : ca n't you stop for a minute ? lola : no , not if i want to make a living . kyle : fine . i 'll wipe while i talk . lola : have you ever cleaned a table before ? kyle : i 'm trying , lola ! lola : yeah , well , you missed a spot right there . kyle : look ! i know we 're a million worlds apart right now , but that does n't change the way i feel about you . i -- the last couple days have sucked . damn it . not the right words . i want to hear what you 're saying , understand where i went wrong so i never , ever do it again . what i 'm trying to say is ... please , just give me a chance . cane : charlie ! will you come in the kitchen , please ? charlie ! charlie : hey , hey , what 's up ? cane : where 's your sister ? charlie : the library . where else ? cane : good , because you and i need to have a conversation . charlie : um , all right . about what ? cane : about nikki newman 's accident . charlie : okay . cane : okay . i know you were in the car with reed the night that nikki was hit . charlie : how do you -- cane : because victoria told me , because reed confessed ! cane : look , dad , i can explain . cane : what ? you can explain what ? how you lied to everybody about this ? charlie : i hated keeping quiet . cane : then why did you do it ? charlie : i do n't know ! cane : you do n't know ? okay . do you realize how many bad decisions you 've made here ? first , there was the drinking , then there was letting someone with a suspended driver 's license take you around , and then you leave the scene of an accident . how could you do this after what happened to hilary ? how could you leave a woman for dead on the side of the road ? ! billy : you sure you do n't want something stronger ? victoria : no . i have to keep a clear head . billy : cane got to you , did n't he ? victoria : it 's just awkward . all of this bad blood over juliet and brash & sassy , and now cane and i have to work together to protect our sons , and ... billy : i hope i did n't make things worse . victoria : uh , no , the tension between cane and me has nothing to do with you . there 's just so much going on with mom and reed . he left this morning , and he has n't checked in with me at all . billy : should i go look for him ? victoria : [ sighs ] [ cellphone chimes ] oh , no need . he 's at a friend 's . he 's not gon na be late . billy : well , that 's one piece of good news today . victoria : what do you mean ? is there bad news ? billy : you have n't heard . victoria : no , i haven't . is it mom ? billy : no . no , your mom 's fine , but it 's your dad . he 's been charged with j.t . 's murder . victoria : that 's impossible . he 's innocent . billy : look , it 's gon na be all right , vick . victoria : [ sighs ] i wish that were true , but it 's not . mariah : oh , abby -- abby : oh , no , you don't . mariah : excuse me ? abby : i saw your lame attempt at reporting . mariah : just because you did n't like the news , abby ... abby : it was garbage . congratulations . it took you less than six months to take gc buzz lower than hilary ever did . you made an innocent man look like a murderer . mariah : innocent ? really ? victor ? and , by the way , i never said that he was guilty . i was just reporting that he was arrested for murder , which he was . abby : and then handed the mic to a detective who 's trying to pin the crime on him . you only told the cop 's side of the story . how is that fair reporting ? mariah : i tried to talk to victor . i was n't allowed to see him since he does n't have a lawyer . abby : well , then you should n't have reported anything , especially should n't have reported lies . mariah : i reported the facts ! abby : you twisted them . just like the cops did to try and make my dad look guilty . [ scoffs ] he did n't kill j.t . someone else did . but you do n't care . all you care about is getting the big story . mariah : i was just doing my job . abby : well , a good reporter tries to uncover the truth . but you do n't care about that . all you care about is ratings , and crucifying victor newman -- wow , that 's a ratings gold mine for your pathetic little show . mariah : you know what , i am sure victor will have the chance to defend himself . abby : thanks to you , he 's already been tried in the court of public opinion . [ scoffs ] and , meanwhile , someone else , the real killer is getting off scot- free . mariah : you know what , abby , it 's not my job to solve this murder , okay ? it 's the police 's job . abby : you know what you 're doing is wrong . and when this is over , my dad will make you pay for that . every day , people are fighting type 2 diabetes with food , `` the young and the restless `` will continue . kyle : i know we come from different backgrounds , but i really want to understand the kind of life you 've had , what makes you the way you are , why you reacted the way you did . lola : you know , maybe you should take a closer look at yourself instead of putting me under a microscope . kyle : i did n't mean for it to sound like that . i 'm just trying to figure out where i went wrong , why what i did , to upset you so much -- lola : it 's not that hard to get ! kyle : okay , okay . you grew up with your values . they make sense to you . lola : and they do n't to you . kyle : no . i mean , yes . i 'm saying all the wrong things , but ... i really want to get this right . if you 'll just give me a chance ... lola : you know , you 're just making this so much more complicated than it already is . kyle : okay , you do n't like expensive things because they 're a waste of your hard - earned money . i get that . but i can afford to buy them for you . are you really gon na punish me for that ? lola : wow . you just have really no clue where i 'm coming from . kyle : and fen does ? fen : hey . good afternoon , guys . here 's a menu . so , we have some specials today . mariah : the last thing in the world that i need is a run - in with that guy . tessa : fen ? what did he do ? mariah : i 'm just sick of the 1 % . even the ones who pretend like they have to wait tables to make a living . tessa : okay . do you want to talk about it ? mariah : i had a run - in with abby at the police station , and she took the opportunity to give me some very constructive criticism . tessa : what , did she not like your off - brand designer shoes ? mariah : no , she did n't like my reporting . tessa : oh , the story you did on victor . mariah : mm - hmm . `` garbage `` she called it , actually . tessa : wow , i mean , dude 's her dad . you ca n't really be surprised that she 's defending him . mariah : no , but she ripped me to shreds in the process . tessa : well , i 'm sorry that you had to deal with the brunt of her anger , but , knowing you , you clapped back . mariah : as much as i could , but she 's not wrong . tessa : you were just doing your job . mariah : that 's what i keep telling myself . tessa : okay , no , i saw that broadcast . there was no malicious intent in it . you were just reporting a story . mariah : yeah , but it 's not the whole story . you know ? i helped put a lie out there . tessa : rey made the arrest , not you . mariah : yeah , but you and i both know who really killed j.t . , and it was n't victor . abby : i do n't care what your boss says , i want to see my father ! rey : okay , okay . i got this . abby : you 've made a big mistake . rey : i was gon na say the same thing . verbally assaulting a police officer usually does n't end well for the person doing it . abby : i 'm not in the mood for jokes . rey : it was a friendly warning . dial down the moral outrage . abby : my father is not a murderer ! rey : well , that 's up for a jury to decide . abby : this is a mockery of justice ! i want to see my father ! rey : he 's not allowed any visitors yet . abby : you 're really not gon na let me see him ? rey : not until he 's fully processed . abby : what -- what , you think i 'm an accomplice ? is that really what you think of the woman who 's seeing your brother ? rey : i did n't say that . abby : look , please -- please , i -- i just want to see my father . i want to make sure he 's okay . i -- i want to let him know that i 'm here for him . rey : a few minutes . that 's all . come on . victor : hi , my sweetheart . abby : dad . victor : hi , my sweetheart . cane : so you had no idea that reed hit someone that night ? charlie : mnh - mnh . i was so messed up that shauna broke up with me , and then by the time i got to the car , you know , i was drinking . i could n't think or see clearly . cane : [ sighs ] oh , man , i should have kept a closer eye on you . charlie : no , dad , this is n't your fault . cane : [ sighs ] why did n't you come and talk to me about this ? charlie : because i thought the alcohol would make things better . cane : okay . charlie : it just made things worse . i could n't even drive my car . cane : reed should not have been driving that car with a suspended license , buddy . charlie : he was just trying to keep me out of trouble . cane : okay , and i bet he regrets that decision now . charlie : when he found out it was his grandmother that we hit , he was sick ! if we had any idea , we would have stopped and called an ambulance . we did n't find out it was mrs . newman until later . cane : victoria said that reed wanted to come forward and confess but you talked him out of it . is this true ? charlie : i kept thinking about what happened to mom and i panicked . cane : [ sighs ] all right , okay , you were scared . i understand . i do . charlie : i just -- i did n't want our family to go through something like that again , i -- cane : okay . charlie : god , i wish i could go back and erase that whole night ! you must hate me . cane : no . no . no , no , no . i do n't hate you . i do n't hate you . charlie : i keep going over and over it . i mean , how did we not see mrs . newman ? how did we not know it was a person that we hit ? cane : all right , okay . charlie : we left her there . cane : it was n't intentional , okay ? you did n't do this intentionally . charlie : what does that matter ? it does n't make a difference . if mrs . newman dies , how am i supposed to live with that ? hy - a - luronic acid dental insurance . many employers do n't offer it . medicare does n't include it . and people who work for themselves often do n't consider it . but with humana you can still have it . starting at just $ 17 a month . that 's less than 60 cents a day . call today for a free quote . with a humana dental plan you 'll get 100 % coverage for in - network preventive care such as oral exams , cleanings , and x - rays . plus , you 'll save on fillings , crowns and other dental procedures . and you ca n't be turned down because of age or pre - existing conditions . with a large network of dentists and specialists and a variety of affordable plans , you 're sure to find one to fit your family 's needs and budget . plus , humana has vision plans too . with coverage for exams , eye glasses , and more . how much could you save ?

ms. no boundaries with other women 's men abby newman ? mariah : [ scoffs ] tessa : and she 's all `` rah , rah `` for her dad now , but did n't she try to sue him for , like , a billion dollars ? mariah : actually , half - a - billion . tessa : oh . mariah : but none of that makes me a less horrible person . i 'm a fake , tessa . no , i -- i am . tessa : okay . mariah : i pretend to be this nice , funny person . i 'm always making jokes . but the truth is , i hide behind my humor . and i use it to say things that are the opposite of nice . and i think i 've become this person that does n't care what her words mean , and maybe that 's who i always was . & tessa : okay , you are being way too hard on yourself . mariah : what i said today hurt abby . we 're not friends . we do n't even really like each other , but it still feels lousy . tessa : i wish you would n't beat yourself up like this . mariah : if i do n't , i 'm never gon na change . and i need to . i have to . you know , i do n't like saying it , but there are people out there that look up to me . my audience ... faith ... and i have to better for them . tessa : so what are you gon na do , go on gc buzz and tell everyone that you know victor 's innocent , that you know who really killed j.t . ? mariah : [ sighs ] that would be a relief , yeah . you know ? this -- this secret is destroying so many people 's lives . and i wish i could just tell the truth and get it off my chest . tessa : okay . well , do n't light me on fire for saying this , but , if you do , your mom 's probably gon na get arrested as an accessory to murder . mariah : i just wish there was a way to prove that j.t . 's death was in self- defense . i mean , maybe rey could do that . tessa : no . he would toss victoria , phyllis , nikki , and sharon into a cell and throw away the key . mariah : there are no good choices here . tessa : well , i mean , if it makes you feel better , you 've told me victor 's committed crimes , and maybe he did n't kill j.t . , but maybe he deserves to be in jail . mariah : that is such a warped sense of justice . tessa : yeah , well , you know the way that rey does his job . someone is gon na go down for j.t . 's murder , and better victor than your mom , hmm ? abby : this is ridiculous . victor : i know . abby : denying you bail ? i mean , do they really think you 're gon na try to escape ? yes , you were on a private jet trying to leave the country when rey found you , but ... you would n't try to do that again . victor : you know , if the jury were made up of 12 people like you , i would n't have to worry about these inane charges . abby : you should n't have to worry about it at all . victor : how 'd you get by this ambitious detective out here ? abby : i 'm not gon na let him push me around . victor : that 's my girl . abby : i 've been so worried about you . victor : it 's temporary , okay ? abby : but this is n't right . you should n't be in here . it 's not good for you . it 's not good for your health . victor : sweetheart , i 'm all right . but i 'm worried about you . abby : i 'm okay . victor : how about the new restaurant that you 're opening ? i mean , this bad publicity may affect your business . abby : how 'd you know about that ? victor : what do you mean ? even though i 'm not around , i do n't care about what 's going on with my children ? abby : even though i left newman ? victor : i will never stop caring about you . tessa : looks like he could use a friend . mariah : what are you looking at me for ? tessa : well , you said you wanted to be a better person . here 's your chance . i 'm off job hunting . i 'll see you soon . mariah : hey . fen : hey . mariah : you look like you 're having as bad of a day as i am . fen : i have had better . mariah : what are you working on ? fen : uh , my music , which is going nowhere fast , just like the rest of my life . mariah : whoa . what happened to that cocky guy that i ran into at crimson lights a few weeks ago ? fen : have you ever done something really stupid that you just , i do n't know , wish you could take back ? mariah : one or two million times , yeah . fen : yeah . yeah , you know , sometimes i wish i could just [ sighs ] keep my big mouth shut . mariah : actually , i 'm currently working on the same thing , as well . if you have n't noticed , i tend to go a little bit overboard on the snark . fen : ahh . you 're not planning on changing that , are you ? i mean , that 's -- that 's kind of your currency . mariah : yeah , but it 's hard to buy stuff when nobody 's interested in what you 're selling . so , my advice -- why do n't you tone it down a little bit , as for a do - over ? fen : you think ? mariah : it certainly ca n't hurt . fen : you 're right . it can't . oh , um ... thank you . kyle : of all the stupid things i 've said today , that one was the stupidest . lola : hope that means you know that my breaking up with you had nothing to do with fen . kyle : you 're mad that i spent so much on that purse . lola : i am so frustrated because you do n't understand why it upsets me ! kyle : i want to ! i do ! if you 'll just explain it -- lola : no , i thought you knew me . god , i thought you knew me well enough to realize that a gift that expensive would make me extremely uncomfortable . kyle : because you ca n't afford to buy me things like that . lola : that 's part of it . kyle : the other part ? go ahead . say it . lola : i do n't want to be with someone who uses their money to show me how much they care . kyle : wow . okay . well , i asked for it . lola : i 'm sorry , that 's just how i feel . kyle : no . no , no , no . i want you to be honest with me . i want to do the same for you . lola : go for it . kyle : growing up ... it was mostly just me and my mom . she felt bad that my dad was n't around . so she tried to make feel loved by buying me things . it 's just how i grew up , learning that you show your love for someone by giving them expensive gifts . the more expensive the gift ... ... the more you were loved . and dad and victor ... everybody who came into my life did the same thing . nobody worried about how much things cost . extravagant gifts , they were n't a bad thing . just the opposite . but you 're right . i know it was n't like that for you . i get that now . i 'm sorry that i did n't before . i would never want to do anything to hurt you or cross any boundaries that would make you feel uncomfortable . that 's why i did n't push you about sex . i knew you were n't ready , and i respect that , and i -- i want to respect your boundaries about money , too . lola : uh , you 're saying all the right things . kyle : i mean them . i do . i can change . i will change for you because ... you 're the only one i want to be with . and i will do whatever it takes to make it work between us . so , please ... just give me a chance to prove it to you . kyle : does this mean we 're back together ?

billy : only every other day . victoria : i 'm serious . it 's hard enough dealing with mom 's accident and dad being awol , and then he finally shows up again , and he 's arrested for and now i find out that reed was driving the car that hit mom ... billy : you sure you do n't want a shot , or something ? victoria : no , billy . alcohol does not solve problems . billy : yeah , i know that , but it helps them go away for a little while . victoria : well , eventually , i 'm gon na have to face all of this , are n't i ?

'cause clearly she has your broad shoulders to cry on . brady : well , thank you for noticing . and by the way , for a happily married girl you seem a little bit jealous right now . [ scene_break ] lexie : so you and nicole hammered out some sort of a deal ? ej : ha ! hammered ? the operative bloody word . if i do n't stay married to nicole , and if anything unfortunate happens to her , her lawyer has instructions to forward the evidence she collected to the relevant parties . lexie : wow . she wants to stay married to you that badly . ej : what , me ? oh , please . it has nothing to do with me , this is about the children . lexie : you are such an idiot , ej . ej : thank you , lexie . i think i needed to hear that . lexie : you married that pit bull nicole . started romancing her sister on the side . at the same time you were up to no good with father and was so sloppy about it that nicole found out . i mean , how else would you describe yourself ? ej : arrogant . lexie : [ sighs ] well -- ej : brilliantly arrogant , i do n't know . lexie : of course , you ca n't tell taylor the real reason you 're staying with nicole , because that would blow this whole image that she has of you . ej : you have no idea , lexie . how hard i was gon na try to be the man that i could see in her eyes . lexie : you 're right , i do n't . ej : well , you asked for an explanation , and i gave you one . i did that because you care about taylor . so now i need you to promise me that you 're not going to repeat any of that to her . lexie : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] rafe # 2 : you ... lousy bitch ! aah ! [ scene_break ] nicole : i am not jealous of taylor . that is ridiculous . brady , look , i am here for you . i care about you , i do n't wan na see you get hurt . brady : thank you . i 'm very , very touched . nicole : i know taylor better than you do . she 's not this little sweetheart that everyone thinks she is . brady : and you 're the expert on little sweethearts . really ? nicole : okay , brady , listen to me . she is a cliché . she pulls this poor little match girl act because she knows that men are suckers for it . her eyes fill up with tears . her jaw quivers . and then she comes up with these stories about how she 's mistreated . brady : stop , stop . i know what you 're doing . nicole : brady , look , i am telling you , i am here for you . brady : thank you . i do n't need any favors from you , mrs. dimera . and do n't think you can keep me on ice in case it does n't work out with elvis . and furthermore , why do n't you stop throwing your sister under the bus . nicole : that is not what i 'm doing . brady : i know what 's going on here . news flash , you and i are done , we 're over . move on . [ scene_break ] sami : so , um , what 'd you do with his gun ? rafe : put it in a drawer in the kitchen . sami : great . rafe : that bullet barely grazed his shoulder . you 're a pretty lousy shot . nicole : i nicked him on purpose , we ca n't kill him . as much as i would like to . rafe : how 'd you know he was the one who was lying , not me ? sami : because every day i would look him right in the face , and i would think , he 's not rafe anymore . and then i looked at you and ... and you were you . i just knew . god , i prayed every night that i would get you back . and now -- and now you 're back . you came back . you 're -- you 're back . rafe : yeah . i 'm back . trouble is , before today i do n't ever remember seeing you . [ scene_break ] maggie : oh , hi hon , it 's mom . i 'm not calling to late , am i ? hold on , no , everything 's fine . i just wanted to hear your voice , that 's all . all right , all right , all right . i was thinking about your dad , and some other things . i just , i miss -- i miss being with family , that 's all . yeah . and you know , talking to you is already making me feel so much better . [ scene_break ] sami : you do n't remember me . you still do n't . rafe : i 'm sorry . hey , if it makes you feel any better , you seem to be a very memorable sort of person . sami : [ laughter ] thank you . you know , i could tell you -- oh , god . tell you everything if you want . i mean , before this happened i would have said that i know you better than anyone . but then , in the hospital , i mean , i was looking at this guy and ... god , i just kept saying something was off . something was off . it 's because he was n't you ! he ... he was ... rafe : [ whispering ] yeah . sami : you were in an accident , the car accident that i told you about . you were in a car accident and , um , and i think that 's when they made the switch . i mean , that 's what this jerk said . they switched him with you . rafe : so the story he told us was true ? sami : yeah , mostly . except for that it happened to you and not him . rafe : oh , my god , these people , these , uh , the di -- sami : dimeras . rafe : they made him into me . sami : and he knew everything . i mean , he knew how you like your eggs . he knew about us , he knew everything . but allie did n't like him . from the minute she saw him she knew . she ... god , how could i not see -- rafe : allie ? allie ? sami : my daughter . my daughter allie . she -- i have four kids . rafe : four kids ? you and i have four kids ? sami : they 're not your biological children , but they love you . rafe : oh . sami : you got ta know they love you like crazy . rafe : oh , well that 's good . [ sighs ] you have any idea why they switched him for me ? sami : i think ej , my ex - husband , and my ex - father - in - law , i think they did it to break us up . it 's the only way they could , because they knew i would never leave you , not in a million years . rafe : one of the first things i remember is being , um , locked in a cell in somebody 's basement . sami : oh , my god , oh , my god . rafe : there was an older guy , he had this really strong accent , a beard . sami : yeah , yeah , that 's stefano . that 's stefano dimera . rafe : yeah . well , i got ta tell you , he really seemed to enjoy having me locked up in there . sami : oh , i 'm sure he would . and i 'm gon na guess that he gave you a drug , something that would erase your long term memory . rafe : you do n't seem surprised by that . sami : he 's done it before , to my stepfather . rafe : what ? this is insane , we need to call the cops . sami : no ! no , we ca n't do that . we all want our kids to eat their vegetables , [ scene_break ] nicole : what is that supposed to mean ? is that code for something ? brady : yeah , yeah , it 's code . it means if you came here thinking we were gon na have a bunch of drinks , then you were gon na tell me how much of a bitch your sister was , and then somehow we 'd find ourselves in a hotel room . that 's not gon na happen , okay ? nicole : [ chuckling ] okay . who is it ? is it taylor ? because if it is her , then you 'll be moving on to the psych ward , because all that girl thinks about is herself . brady : leave her alone . nicole : why should i ? brady : because , she has a right to live her life the way she wants to live it ... without interference from queen interference herself . nicole : you 're absolutely amazing . i do n't know why everyone thinks she 's so perfect . but you know what ? my sister 's a lot more like me than you think . have a nice life . [ scene_break ] rafe : sami , i do n't get it . why do n't you wan na call the police ? sami : we just ca n't , okay ? i mean , it 's like , i get it . you wan na do that . it 's your instinct . you 're a cop . but , i -- rafe : i am ? sami : yeah . rafe : oh , my god . okay , uh , well that explains something . sami : what ? rafe : no , it 's just every time i walk into a room or see people , i 'm just -- i 'm sizing up situations , and -- whoa . sami : before you were a cop you were a federal agent . fbi . rafe : get out . sami : yeah . rafe : huh . sami : you were a great agent . you 're a great cop . and you work with my -- you work with my dad and my uncle , they 're cops too . rafe : hold on . well , then i do n't get it . all the more reason , i mean , do n't you wan na see this guy arrested , and the rest of the dimeras ? sami : dimeras , yes , of course i do . but my ex - husband , ej . he 's also a father of two of my children . and johnny , sydney ... ring a bell ? rafe : sorry . sami : no , no , it 's okay . i mean , it 's not . it 's not okay , but it will be . it 's just that , uh , johnny , he really looks up to you , and sydney -- they love you , and i think that ej ca n't stand that . and i think that 's why he did this to you . rafe : well , he sounds like a great guy , how did you end up with him ? sami : ha ! it 's a long story . and it does n't reflect well on me . but bottom line is if we told my dad and my uncle what ej has done , he 's gon na wan na come breaking into the dimera 's house with guns blazing and that -- sorry . um , and sirens screaming , and arrest them and throw them in prison for the rest of their lives . rafe : and the problem with that is ... sami : that ej will disappear . that he can just disappear , i 'm sure he has fake passports ready . and he will take my kids and i 'll never see them again . rafe : you sure ? sami : he tried it once before , and you stopped him . rafe : [ chuckles ] well , i guess it 's kinda hard for me to argue with you since ... since i ca n't remember anything . so , um , if that 's what you wan na do . sami : look , ej has my kids , and i have to make sure that he 's not suspicious . he can not know that you are alive , and he can not know that i know what he did . rafe : you still have n't told me what it is you wan na do . sami : the hardest thing i 've ever had to do in my entire life .

[ scene_break ] maggie : oh , please , sit . victor : so ... about the chloe situation . maggie : go on . victor : first of all i think philip did the right thing by taking parker and getting out of town . so what i realized was my need to punish chloe was a reaction to my own loss in this whole thing . and i did the same thing to you , and it 's not fair . it 's not what i want . maggie : [ sighs ] what do you want , victor ? victor : for this to work between us , to share my life with you . i realized for that happen i have to change . be worthy of you . now you 're the one that 's not saying anything . maggie : i wan na believe that you mean it . victor : maggie , having you in my life is a gift . even though i 've gotten on in years , when i 'm with you i feel young . hopeful . more than i ever have before . i think of you when i wake up in the morning . i wan na see you , i wan na see your smile . your beautiful , heartwarming smile . i 'd be a fool to give that up . maggie : [ crying ] [ scene_break ] sami : [ crying ] thank you . rafe : oh , you 're welcome . i 'm sorry you had to go through that . obviously that took a lot out of you . sami : i just have to make sure that ej is n't suspicious . i mean , he just -- he 'll think something 's up if he knows that i 've left town the same night as the creature . and that gives us time to figure out what we 're gon na do . i mean , assuming that you , um , you and i are together on this . rafe : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry i ca n't remember us . sami : it 's not your fault . it 's not your fault . will you help me ? rafe : will i help you ? listen , i want you to know that i will do anything i can to help you . i want revenge too , you know . sami : you deserve it . rafe : yeah , i know . sami : i keep waiting for will to text me . he , um , he has n't -- i told him the same thing i told ej . rafe : will ? sami : my oldest son . rafe : oh . sami : will . he 's in high school , he 's about to graduate . rafe : he 's in what ? sami : yeah . rafe : high school , you did n't -- no , come on . you do n't have a son who 's in high school , you kidding me ? you 're not that old . sami : [ laughs ] thank you . rafe : i 'm serious . sami : i got started early , it 's another long story . he , um , he 's in love with your sister . rafe : i have a sister ? sami : gabi . gabriella . and she 's lovely . rafe : aah . sami : crazy that i have to tell you this . rafe : i ca n't believe you 're telling me this . i ca n't . sami : but you got ta know i 'm gon na do it . i will do anything , i will do everything i have to do . but we 're gon na work this out , okay ? i 'm gon na find a way to make this right for us .

[ sighs ] you have any idea why they switched him for me ? sami : i think ej , my ex - husband , and my ex - father - in - law , i think they did it to break us up . it 's the only way they could , because they knew i would never leave you , not in a million years . rafe : one of the first things i remember is being , um , locked in a cell in somebody 's basement . sami : oh , my god , oh , my god . rafe : there was an older guy , he had this really strong accent , a beard . sami : yeah , yeah , that 's stefano . that 's stefano dimera . rafe : yeah . well , i got ta tell you , he really seemed to enjoy having me locked up in there . sami : oh , i 'm sure he would . and i 'm gon na guess that he gave you a drug , something that would erase your long term memory . rafe : you do n't seem surprised by that . sami : he 's done it before , to my stepfather . rafe : what ? this is insane , we need to call the cops . sami : no ! no , we ca n't do that . we all want our kids to eat their vegetables , [ scene_break ] nicole : what is that supposed to mean ? is that code for something ? brady : yeah , yeah , it 's code . it means if you came here thinking we were gon na have a bunch of drinks , then you were gon na tell me how much of a bitch your sister was , and then somehow we 'd find ourselves in a hotel room . that 's not gon na happen , okay ? nicole : [ chuckling ] okay . who is it ? is it taylor ? because if it is her , then you 'll be moving on to the psych ward , because all that girl thinks about is herself . brady : leave her alone . nicole : why should i ? brady : because , she has a right to live her life the way she wants to live it ... without interference from queen interference herself . nicole : you 're absolutely amazing . i do n't know why everyone thinks she 's so perfect . but you know what ? my sister 's a lot more like me than you think . have a nice life .

[ laughs ] today and many days to come , if he has his way . esther : what happened ? jill : he 's lost again . mistake after mistake , and i can not seem to find a way to stop this downward spiral . what a dreadful way for somebody to go through life , stumbling in the dark . esther : jill , you ca n't give up hope . i mean , chloe was lost , too , but she came back from the darkness . come on . chloe 's a lot stronger than i 'll ever be . jill : yeah , well , she 's a lot stronger than billy , obviously . i mean , he 's tried to find his way , but delia 's death just hangs over him . i - i 'm so afraid . i 'm so afraid that my boy will never find peace . victoria : i 'm so sorry . it just gets exhausting cleaning up all of billy 's messes . travis : i understand . i 'll help out , though , okay ? i 'll help out with the kids and i 'll make sure you have coffee and breakfast in the morning , and i 'll do whatever else you need . 'cause you 're not gon na change . you 're a girl that takes care of people . and you forgive mistakes , like forgiving me for not telling you about my past . victoria : i love you . do you see that ? it just rolled off my tongue . i love you . and i need you and i want you . and i trust you . travis : you got me . victoria : [ sighs ] suddenly , i 'm not so worked up about billy anymore . travis : good . i did my job . just do n't look at the stupid bar fight video anymore , okay ? i ca n't kiss you all day and calm you down . victoria : [ chuckles ] [ cell phone chimes ] travis : oh . it 's victor . he needs to see me . `` now . `` all caps . victoria : mm , guess i 'm not the only one worked up over that video . travis : [ sighs ] yeah . billy : you know , according to you , i was a screw - up before i was even born . victor : you know , billy boy , you did one thing right in your life . you saved delia when she had leukemia . beyond that , you have n't done a damn thing that i could respect . billy : well , that 's good , because i do n't give a damn about your respect . victor : there 's only one problem . you 're the father of my grandchildren . they want to respect you because you 're the only father they have . billy : and you 're adam 's only father . how 'd that work out for you ? victor : he felt terrible about what happened to delia , and you know by now it was an accident . my son admitted to it . took responsibility . and you stood up in court . and you said you would forgive him . and everyone was hoping that once you gave forgiveness that your life would change . billy : well , that 'd be great for you , right ? because forgiveness would set me free . but delia would still be gone . so it does n't matter , does it ? on a day like today , forgiveness ? it 's not enough , victor . victor : send him in . do you know why i called you here ? travis : the video about the bar fight , i assume ? victor : i gave you a job to make a reputation for yourself . not to have fisticuffs in a bar . how did victoria react ? travis : we talked it out . she understands . victor : because she 's your girlfriend . i 'm your boss . if you want to be a tough guy , get in the ring . do n't have a stupid brawl in a bar . that 's as dumb as having an affair with your boss ' wife . i do know about that . you tried to cover it up , but it 's out there . travis : so you knew about the affair but you hired me anyway . then you gave victoria and me your blessing , so is that genuine or just to yank the rug out from under me ? chelsea : connor , i want to show you something . i want to show you something . you see this tree ? see this tree ? this was planted last year for a really beautiful little girl named delia . bella 's big sister . she was really special to us . special to you , too . nick : you know we all got you covered , right ? me , connor , that tree . chelsea : i mean , that gift that delia gave him , the gift that billy and chloe gave him , i can never repay them for that . connor sees the whole world differently now because he sees it through delia 's eyes . i mean , now he can see the trees and the leaves and this kite all because of her . right ? he can look at me and tell me that he loves me . i mean , that is the greatest gift either one of us could ever have . just -- at such a terrible cost . kevin : and i get it . chloe just wanted some alone time with bella . esther : i know . but it hurts to be on the outside . i feel the same way . but chloe knows what she needs to do , so we just have to let her do things her own way . kevin : how about you ? how are you doing ? esther : well , my shift 's almost over , so i 'm gon na take some of this tea and i 'm gon na go for a walk and maybe find some ducks to feed for delia . delia just loved feeding the ducks with grandma . she was convinced that the ducks would talk to her if no one else was around . [ both chuckle ] kevin : you sure you 're okay being alone ? esther : i wo n't be alone , kevin . delia will be with me . chloe : okay , i want you to be careful and stay close to mommy , okay ? i want to show you something . do you see all of these pretty things ? bella : horsey . chloe : yeah , that 's a horsey . do you know what this is ? these are all the pretty things that people have left for delia . because they love her . they love her just as much as mommy does . so we 're gon na leave these flowers . you want to help me ? okay . let 's put them right over here . right there . oh ! mommy misses you so much . billy : guess i should have expected to see you here . chloe : [ chuckles ] billy : and i 'm sure dee planned it that way . chloe : oh , you know it . i mean , you know , she was very stubborn . she always got her way . billy : yeah , she did . hi . chloe : bella , this is my friend , billy . he 's delia 's daddy . billy : hi , bella . how you doing ? you know , your big sister -- she was the greatest . yeah . she was smart and funny . really silly . she would tell you a joke and she 'd have you rolling on the ground with it . chloe : oh , yeah . [ giggles ] billy : wow , she looks so much like dee at that age . chloe : yeah . yeah . i guess she does . but she is her own person ! are n't you ? how lucky am i ? two miracles in one lifetime . [ sighs ] [ chuckles ] nick : you know , connor was given a gift . you all were . it 's not doing yourself or anyone for that matter any good for you to be walking around with all that guilt . now , i 'm sure chloe 's happy that a part of delia lives on . chelsea : yeah , no , she is . i mean , she says that all the time . she does , but it does n't make the guilt go away . i mean , my child is here and hers is not . i 'm sorry . you know what ? i should n't even -- i should n't even be talking to you about this . nick : no , no , no . no . you know , there 's not a day that goes by that i do n't miss christian . but you ca n't feel guilty about that . please do n't feel like you have to walk around on eggshells around me , chelsea . i 'm -- i 'm here , and you can talk to me about anything -- delia , connor . anything . chelsea : what if i wanted to talk about adam ? i mean , he was a part of this . this whole thing started with him . that guilt of his that took over . he had so much guilt about the accident . he had guilt about covering it up . i mean , all of that time wasted fighting those demons . eventually , billy forgave him . even chloe forgave him . but i just think about the what - ifs , you know ? or what if they had n't ? or what if adam had died without ever getting that forgiveness from them ? nick : just -- those sort of what - ifs ... do n't do that yourself . i mean , you will spin out going down that road . adam got forgiveness . there was n't a whole lot that came out of this nightmare to hold onto . but that . that forgiveness ? do n't ever let that go . mariah : hi . kevin : hi . thanks for coming . mariah : you asked , so i 'm here . why am i here ? kevin : well , people do this thing where they text each other for coffee , and they meet for coffee . mariah : yeah . text . meet . coffee . why am i here ? kevin : well , i 'm sure you heard from dylan that we found the phone that sharon was called from . mariah : yeah , i did . uh , the guy said that he lost it , and you guys found it , so ... good job , super sleuth . kevin : thank you . how 's sharon ? have the calls stopped ? mariah : yeah . no more calls . sharon 's fine . dylan 's being very supportive , attentive , very dylan - ish . kevin : good ! that 's good . since when are you so weird around me ? mariah : since when do you text me for coffee and tell me something you could have sent over text ? kevin : well , i needed an excuse to see you because things have been weird , and i want a chance to make them right . chloe : you read this while i talk to my friend , okay ? mommy 's right here . so that 's what you 've been up to , huh ? single - momming it ? chloe : yeah . i mean , it works ! billy : just the two of you , even when you were at the -- chloe : even when i was in the psych facility ? yeah . billy : what about bella 's father -- is he around ? chloe : not in the picture . billy : oh . chloe : it 's good , though . we 're -- we 're great . we 're just two singletons taking on the world . [ both chuckle ] billy : well , i 'm happy for you . you know , i know how badly you wanted to have another baby . a daughter , more specifically . you know , when you came to me -- chloe : yeah , can we just -- can we not ? billy : `` not `` like just pretend that never happened ? chloe : yeah . it was n't one of my finest moments . you know , to think that we could clone a little delia , just -- i was practically begging you for it . it was -- billy : it was understandable , chloe . chloe : no , it was impossible to think that we could actually make another delia . i mean -- [ laughs ] i mean , how many kids can actually brush their teeth and tap dance at the same time ? billy : yeah . chloe : and sit at the dinner table every single night reciting pinkerton pony 's entire history ? billy : she was one of a kind . chloe : yeah . she was . and so is bella . you know ? she is just her own unique little self . billy : she is cute . chloe : [ laughs ] billy : my gosh . the resemblance to dee -- it 's just -- it 's amazing . chloe : well , yeah . i mean , well , they 're sisters . billy : yeah , well ... chloe : but she is her own person . we are our own people . and i 'm really excited to see what the future has in store for us . billy : i 'm happy for you . i really am . i 'm really -- i 'm proud of you . you made it out of that dark , dark cave . i do n't know if i 'm ever gon na catch up . victor : you did a stupid and reckless thing , having an affair with your boss ' wife , all right ? i hope you learned your lesson . travis : yes , sir . i learned lots of them . victor : well , one of the lessons you learned hopefully involves not having a brawl in defense of billy abbott , of all people . travis : all i can do is apologize . victor : right . let me tell you about billy abbott . he 's an idiot who does a lot of damage to a lot of people ! his reputation is in the garbage can , you get it ? i expected more from you . you may go . kevin : i know the thing with chloe and me is weird to you . mariah : it 's weird , not just to me . i mean , it 's objectively weird . but it 's also none of my business . kevin : that 's true . mariah : thanks . kevin : but not . mariah : that does n't make any sense . kevin : will you just listen to me ? i do n't want the situation between chloe and me to get between us . this . we 're friends no matter what . mariah : well , i 'm glad to hear you say that . i appreciate it . but i 'm not sure it was worth the buildup of this entire conversation . kevin : and friends support each other . mariah : if you 're asking me to be the best man at your wedding -- kevin : the other day at the bar , the online guy who stood you up ? mariah : really ? we 're talking about that ? let 's not . ever . okay , friend ? because friends do n't let friends talk about that kind of stuff . kevin : it 's okay . i get it . you do n't put yourself out there romantically , so to go online and try and meet somebody , and then .... to get stood up -- mariah : oh , we 're still talking about it . it 's getting worse . kevin : i 'm just saying . you do n't have to meet someone that way if it freaks you out . i could introduce you to somebody at the station . mariah : a cop ? you want me to date a cop . really ? with my rap sheet . kevin : my rap sheet 's longer than yours . i know these guys . they 're good guys . so if there 's one that you 've noticed , that you think might be your type ... mariah : okay , okay . thank you . really . really . i -- i 'm touched that you are invested in me finding a love connection , but do n't . ever . not -- not ever . just focus on your own love life . in fact , go to chloe right now . fly like the wind ! unless she has something better to do today . kevin : she 's spending some time alone with bella . mariah : and you could n't join ? like i said , it 's kind of weird . kevin : she needed some time alone because today is an anniversary . mariah : delia . oh , my god . i 'm so sorry , kevin . i 'm such a jerk . jill : how are you , honey ? have you talked to billy ? victoria : uh , you know , i do n't think that would be a good idea , at least not right now . jill : he needs you . please . you have n't forgotten what today is , right ? victoria : do you honestly think that i would forget the day that we lost dee- dee ? i just ca n't deal with billy when he acts this way . [ sighs ] we just need some distance . jill : who 's `` we ? `` the last thing in the world billy needs is distance from you . i remember you in that hospital room . i remember you at his bedside . you did n't want to lose him any more than i did . victoria : of course not . jill : then stop all this nonsense about distance . if billy feels that he 's alone in this now , i do n't know what 's gon na happen . billy : you know that day in the courtroom ? adam 's sentencing ? i did n't know what i was gon na say . i did n't know that i was gon na tell everybody -- tell the judge , tell the room , the world that i forgave adam . but i had to . i had to say it . i had to mean it . 'cause if i did n't , there was no getting back to normal for me . it was gon na be over , so i had to do something . but the thing is , i , uh ... i never -- i never got back to normal . normal never really kicked in for me . i feel like i 'm a walking bruise , affecting everybody around me , and i just ca n't stop it . because of one moment . after delia 's play , i stopped to get ice cream . now i 'm here and she 's not . and it 's not right . it 's never gon na be fair . but that 's just the way the world works , right ? chloe : you know , when delia died ... a part of you broke . and you feel like you ca n't fix it . billy : yeah , but you did . how 'd you do that ? chloe : time . therapy . bella . i mean , what other choice is there ? you either crawl into a ball and you shrivel up and you die , or ... you open your heart up and you learn to love again . because i had to get healthy . you know ? i had to -- i had to be happy . i -- i do n't know , i just had to be whole again for bella 's sake . and for delia 's sake , too . because there is no other choice , billy . [ voice breaking ] we ca n't honor delia if we destroy ourselves . victor : clear my schedule for a while , okay ? there 's something important i need to do . chloe : those cookies are gon na be so good ! are you gon na make me a pretend milkshake , preferably chocolate , to go with those cookies ? chelsea : hi . chloe : oh , hi ! [ laughter ] why do n't you sit down here ? oh ! baby girl . nick : i do n't want to intrude . just came to drop off this very valuable package , and i 'll be on my way . chelsea : nick was helping me with connor today . we flew kites . chloe : so much fun ! chelsea : yeah . chloe : and do n't worry . you 're not intruding at all . we are having a really great day . nick : good , well , i 'll , uh , get out of your hair . hey , bud , do you know what the secret is to pretend milkshakes ? lots and lots of chocolate syrup . the pretend kind . here you go . you have fun there . i 'll see you , dude . bye . uh , you know , i know these anniversaries can be rough , so my heart goes out to you . chloe : thanks , nick . nick : well , see you . chelsea : bye . thank for you today .

[ sighs ] she is pretty amazing . chloe : well , i make amazing daughters . kevin : [ chuckles ] i 'm happy for you . chloe : thanks . i 'm really happy for me , too . kevin : okay . chloe : [ sighs ] esther : i spent last night with chloe and bella , but she wanted today to herself , so ... jill : mm . esther : have you seen billy ? jill : uh , i left him a message . i do n't expect to hear back from him , though . esther : oh , come on . he would n't ignore you today of all days . jill : oh . [ laughs ] today and many days to come , if he has his way . esther : what happened ? jill : he 's lost again . mistake after mistake , and i can not seem to find a way to stop this downward spiral . what a dreadful way for somebody to go through life , stumbling in the dark . esther : jill , you ca n't give up hope . i mean , chloe was lost , too , but she came back from the darkness . come on . chloe 's a lot stronger than i 'll ever be . jill : yeah , well , she 's a lot stronger than billy , obviously . i mean , he 's tried to find his way , but delia 's death just hangs over him . i - i 'm so afraid . i 'm so afraid that my boy will never find peace . victoria : i 'm so sorry . it just gets exhausting cleaning up all of billy 's messes . travis : i understand . i 'll help out , though , okay ? i 'll help out with the kids and i 'll make sure you have coffee and breakfast in the morning , and i 'll do whatever else you need . 'cause you 're not gon na change . you 're a girl that takes care of people . and you forgive mistakes , like forgiving me for not telling you about my past . victoria : i love you . do you see that ? it just rolled off my tongue . i love you . and i need you and i want you . and i trust you . travis : you got me . victoria : [ sighs ] suddenly , i 'm not so worked up about billy anymore . travis : good . i did my job . just do n't look at the stupid bar fight video anymore , okay ? i ca n't kiss you all day and calm you down . victoria : [ chuckles ] [ cell phone chimes ] travis : oh . it 's victor . he needs to see me . `` now . `` all caps . victoria : mm , guess i 'm not the only one worked up over that video . travis : [ sighs ] yeah . billy : you know , according to you , i was a screw - up before i was even born . victor : you know , billy boy , you did one thing right in your life . you saved delia when she had leukemia . beyond that , you have n't done a damn thing that i could respect . billy : well , that 's good , because i do n't give a damn about your respect . victor : there 's only one problem . you 're the father of my grandchildren . they want to respect you because you 're the only father they have . billy : and you 're adam 's only father . how 'd that work out for you ? victor : he felt terrible about what happened to delia , and you know by now it was an accident . my son admitted to it . took responsibility . and you stood up in court . and you said you would forgive him . and everyone was hoping that once you gave forgiveness that your life would change . billy : well , that 'd be great for you , right ? because forgiveness would set me free . but delia would still be gone . so it does n't matter , does it ? on a day like today , forgiveness ? it 's not enough , victor . victor : send him in . do you know why i called you here ? travis : the video about the bar fight , i assume ? victor : i gave you a job to make a reputation for yourself . not to have fisticuffs in a bar . how did victoria react ? travis : we talked it out . she understands . victor : because she 's your girlfriend . i 'm your boss . if you want to be a tough guy , get in the ring . do n't have a stupid brawl in a bar . that 's as dumb as having an affair with your boss ' wife . i do know about that . you tried to cover it up , but it 's out there . travis : so you knew about the affair but you hired me anyway . then you gave victoria and me your blessing , so is that genuine or just to yank the rug out from under me ? chelsea : connor , i want to show you something . i want to show you something . you see this tree ? see this tree ? this was planted last year for a really beautiful little girl named delia . bella 's big sister . she was really special to us . special to you , too . nick : you know we all got you covered , right ? me , connor , that tree . chelsea : i mean , that gift that delia gave him , the gift that billy and chloe gave him , i can never repay them for that . connor sees the whole world differently now because he sees it through delia 's eyes . i mean , now he can see the trees and the leaves and this kite all because of her . right ? he can look at me and tell me that he loves me . i mean , that is the greatest gift either one of us could ever have . just -- at such a terrible cost . kevin : and i get it . chloe just wanted some alone time with bella . esther : i know . but it hurts to be on the outside . i feel the same way . but chloe knows what she needs to do , so we just have to let her do things her own way . kevin : how about you ? how are you doing ? esther : well , my shift 's almost over , so i 'm gon na take some of this tea and i 'm gon na go for a walk and maybe find some ducks to feed for delia . delia just loved feeding the ducks with grandma . she was convinced that the ducks would talk to her if no one else was around . [ both chuckle ] kevin : you sure you 're okay being alone ? esther : i wo n't be alone , kevin . delia will be with me . chloe : okay , i want you to be careful and stay close to mommy , okay ? i want to show you something . do you see all of these pretty things ? bella : horsey . chloe : yeah , that 's a horsey . do you know what this is ? these are all the pretty things that people have left for delia . because they love her . they love her just as much as mommy does . so we 're gon na leave these flowers . you want to help me ? okay . let 's put them right over here . right there . oh ! mommy misses you so much . billy : guess i should have expected to see you here . chloe : [ chuckles ] billy : and i 'm sure dee planned it that way . chloe : oh , you know it . i mean , you know , she was very stubborn . she always got her way . billy : yeah , she did . hi . chloe : bella , this is my friend , billy . he 's delia 's daddy . billy : hi , bella . how you doing ? you know , your big sister -- she was the greatest . yeah . she was smart and funny . really silly . she would tell you a joke and she 'd have you rolling on the ground with it . chloe : oh , yeah . [ giggles ] billy : wow , she looks so much like dee at that age . chloe : yeah . yeah . i guess she does . but she is her own person ! are n't you ? how lucky am i ? two miracles in one lifetime . [ sighs ] [ chuckles ] nick : you know , connor was given a gift . you all were . it 's not doing yourself or anyone for that matter any good for you to be walking around with all that guilt . now , i 'm sure chloe 's happy that a part of delia lives on . chelsea : yeah , no , she is . i mean , she says that all the time . she does , but it does n't make the guilt go away . i mean , my child is here and hers is not . i 'm sorry . you know what ? i should n't even -- i should n't even be talking to you about this . nick : no , no , no . no . you know , there 's not a day that goes by that i do n't miss christian . but you ca n't feel guilty about that . please do n't feel like you have to walk around on eggshells around me , chelsea . i 'm -- i 'm here , and you can talk to me about anything -- delia , connor . anything . chelsea : what if i wanted to talk about adam ? i mean , he was a part of this . this whole thing started with him . that guilt of his that took over . he had so much guilt about the accident . he had guilt about covering it up . i mean , all of that time wasted fighting those demons . eventually , billy forgave him . even chloe forgave him . but i just think about the what - ifs , you know ? or what if they had n't ? or what if adam had died without ever getting that forgiveness from them ? nick : just -- those sort of what - ifs ... do n't do that yourself . i mean , you will spin out going down that road . adam got forgiveness . there was n't a whole lot that came out of this nightmare to hold onto . but that . that forgiveness ? do n't ever let that go . mariah : hi . kevin : hi . thanks for coming . mariah : you asked , so i 'm here . why am i here ? kevin : well , people do this thing where they text each other for coffee , and they meet for coffee . mariah : yeah . text . meet . coffee . why am i here ? kevin : well , i 'm sure you heard from dylan that we found the phone that sharon was called from . mariah : yeah , i did . uh , the guy said that he lost it , and you guys found it , so ... good job , super sleuth . kevin : thank you . how 's sharon ? have the calls stopped ? mariah : yeah . no more calls . sharon 's fine . dylan 's being very supportive , attentive , very dylan - ish . kevin : good ! that 's good . since when are you so weird around me ? mariah : since when do you text me for coffee and tell me something you could have sent over text ? kevin : well , i needed an excuse to see you because things have been weird , and i want a chance to make them right . chloe : you read this while i talk to my friend , okay ? mommy 's right here . so that 's what you 've been up to , huh ? single - momming it ? chloe : yeah . i mean , it works ! billy : just the two of you , even when you were at the -- chloe : even when i was in the psych facility ? yeah . billy : what about bella 's father -- is he around ? chloe : not in the picture . billy : oh . chloe : it 's good , though . we 're -- we 're great . we 're just two singletons taking on the world . [ both chuckle ] billy : well , i 'm happy for you . you know , i know how badly you wanted to have another baby . a daughter , more specifically . you know , when you came to me -- chloe : yeah , can we just -- can we not ? billy : `` not `` like just pretend that never happened ? chloe : yeah . it was n't one of my finest moments . you know , to think that we could clone a little delia , just -- i was practically begging you for it . it was -- billy : it was understandable , chloe . chloe : no , it was impossible to think that we could actually make another delia . i mean -- [ laughs ] i mean , how many kids can actually brush their teeth and tap dance at the same time ? billy : yeah . chloe : and sit at the dinner table every single night reciting pinkerton pony 's entire history ? billy : she was one of a kind . chloe : yeah . she was . and so is bella . you know ? she is just her own unique little self . billy : she is cute . chloe : [ laughs ] billy : my gosh . the resemblance to dee -- it 's just -- it 's amazing . chloe : well , yeah . i mean , well , they 're sisters . billy : yeah , well ... chloe : but she is her own person . we are our own people . and i 'm really excited to see what the future has in store for us . billy : i 'm happy for you . i really am . i 'm really -- i 'm proud of you . you made it out of that dark , dark cave . i do n't know if i 'm ever gon na catch up . victor : you did a stupid and reckless thing , having an affair with your boss ' wife , all right ? i hope you learned your lesson . travis : yes , sir . i learned lots of them . victor : well , one of the lessons you learned hopefully involves not having a brawl in defense of billy abbott , of all people . travis : all i can do is apologize . victor : right . let me tell you about billy abbott . he 's an idiot who does a lot of damage to a lot of people ! his reputation is in the garbage can , you get it ? i expected more from you . you may go . kevin : i know the thing with chloe and me is weird to you . mariah : it 's weird , not just to me . i mean , it 's objectively weird . but it 's also none of my business . kevin : that 's true . mariah : thanks . kevin : but not . mariah : that does n't make any sense . kevin : will you just listen to me ? i do n't want the situation between chloe and me to get between us . this . we 're friends no matter what . mariah : well , i 'm glad to hear you say that . i appreciate it . but i 'm not sure it was worth the buildup of this entire conversation . kevin : and friends support each other . mariah : if you 're asking me to be the best man at your wedding -- kevin : the other day at the bar , the online guy who stood you up ? mariah : really ? we 're talking about that ? let 's not . ever . okay , friend ? because friends do n't let friends talk about that kind of stuff . kevin : it 's okay . i get it . you do n't put yourself out there romantically , so to go online and try and meet somebody , and then .... to get stood up -- mariah : oh , we 're still talking about it . it 's getting worse . kevin : i 'm just saying . you do n't have to meet someone that way if it freaks you out . i could introduce you to somebody at the station . mariah : a cop ? you want me to date a cop . really ? with my rap sheet . kevin : my rap sheet 's longer than yours . i know these guys . they 're good guys . so if there 's one that you 've noticed , that you think might be your type ... mariah : okay , okay . thank you . really . really . i -- i 'm touched that you are invested in me finding a love connection , but do n't . ever . not -- not ever . just focus on your own love life . in fact , go to chloe right now . fly like the wind ! unless she has something better to do today . kevin : she 's spending some time alone with bella . mariah : and you could n't join ? like i said , it 's kind of weird . kevin : she needed some time alone because today is an anniversary . mariah : delia . oh , my god . i 'm so sorry , kevin . i 'm such a jerk . jill : how are you , honey ? have you talked to billy ? victoria : uh , you know , i do n't think that would be a good idea , at least not right now . jill : he needs you . please . you have n't forgotten what today is , right ? victoria : do you honestly think that i would forget the day that we lost dee- dee ? i just ca n't deal with billy when he acts this way . [ sighs ] we just need some distance . jill : who 's `` we ? `` the last thing in the world billy needs is distance from you . i remember you in that hospital room . i remember you at his bedside . you did n't want to lose him any more than i did . victoria : of course not . jill : then stop all this nonsense about distance . if billy feels that he 's alone in this now , i do n't know what 's gon na happen . billy : you know that day in the courtroom ? adam 's sentencing ? i did n't know what i was gon na say . i did n't know that i was gon na tell everybody -- tell the judge , tell the room , the world that i forgave adam . but i had to . i had to say it . i had to mean it . 'cause if i did n't , there was no getting back to normal for me . it was gon na be over , so i had to do something . but the thing is , i , uh ... i never -- i never got back to normal . normal never really kicked in for me . i feel like i 'm a walking bruise , affecting everybody around me , and i just ca n't stop it . because of one moment . after delia 's play , i stopped to get ice cream . now i 'm here and she 's not . and it 's not right . it 's never gon na be fair . but that 's just the way the world works , right ? chloe : you know , when delia died ... a part of you broke . and you feel like you ca n't fix it . billy : yeah , but you did . how 'd you do that ? chloe : time . therapy . bella . i mean , what other choice is there ? you either crawl into a ball and you shrivel up and you die , or ... you open your heart up and you learn to love again . because i had to get healthy . you know ? i had to -- i had to be happy . i -- i do n't know , i just had to be whole again for bella 's sake . and for delia 's sake , too . because there is no other choice , billy . [ voice breaking ] we ca n't honor delia if we destroy ourselves . victor : clear my schedule for a while , okay ? there 's something important i need to do . chloe : those cookies are gon na be so good ! are you gon na make me a pretend milkshake , preferably chocolate , to go with those cookies ? chelsea : hi . chloe : oh , hi ! [ laughter ] why do n't you sit down here ? oh ! baby girl . nick : i do n't want to intrude . just came to drop off this very valuable package , and i 'll be on my way . chelsea : nick was helping me with connor today . we flew kites . chloe : so much fun ! chelsea : yeah . chloe : and do n't worry . you 're not intruding at all . we are having a really great day . nick : good , well , i 'll , uh , get out of your hair . hey , bud , do you know what the secret is to pretend milkshakes ? lots and lots of chocolate syrup . the pretend kind . here you go . you have fun there . i 'll see you , dude . bye . uh , you know , i know these anniversaries can be rough , so my heart goes out to you . chloe : thanks , nick . nick : well , see you . chelsea : bye . thank for you today .

tell me the truth , billy . the whole truth , nothing but the truth . billy : because i feel alive for the first time in a long time . another cleaning tip from mr . clean . sharon : [ sighs ] fill her up , please ! mariah : yeah , of course . i have got a fresh one right here . sharon : that is such a cute blouse you 're wearing . mariah : oh , well , thank you . it was a christmas present from someone with amazing taste who knows me incredibly well . sharon : gee , i wonder who that could be . tessa : and i got this amazing bracelet from my own someone with amazing taste . sharon : [ gasps ] that is beautiful , just like the two of you . mariah : [ scoffs ] thank you . tessa : oh ! rey : yeah , so , you know , we 're staying open late so people can come in and regroup after a night of partying , maybe warm up with a cup of coffee , find a safe way home . sharon : stick around , watch the show for a bit . it 's our way of saying thanks for another terrific year . rey : you know , it 's a wonderful thing you 're doing for this community . sharon : well , i see it as more than just a public service . it 's a really nice way to ring in the new year with people who i care about the most . rey : well , with the right person , even work can be fun . sharon : i ca n't think of anywhere i 'd rather be . billy : [ sighs ] i know how lucky i am , i do , how , um ... how privileged . i mean , i have had opportunities that no one else gets . you know , people , they ... spend their lives trying to create this picture - perfect on the outside , and , uh ... and i 've tried , i 've -- i 've definitely tried to do that myself . i would say it 's for my kids . amanda : it 's obvious how much you love them . billy : yeah , i do . so much . they 're everything to me . but they 're smart . they have an intuition . they know when someone is trying to pull the wool over their eyes . [ sighs ] amanda : go on . billy : well , i tried to figure this out with my therapist , you know , when she was trying to heal me . and ... i do n't know , i feel like if the point of that is to just get in line and just do what everybody expects me to do , i feel like that 's part of the problem . i mean , i end up living in two different worlds . i feel like i 'm conflict with myself constantly . amanda : instead of one whole complicated person . billy : yeah , to just feel what i feel , to do what i feel is right , to just , you know , be who i am , to embrace both sides . phyllis : great party . chance : it has been , up till now . phyllis : i want to make sure we 're on the same page . chance : i 'm sure we 're not , whatever it is . phyllis : does abby know what happened in vegas ? chance : [ sighs ] phyllis : mm . i thought so . i guess you do n't want her to see you that way . chance : and what was is that ? phyllis : dangerous . might scare some women . chance : phyllis , if you 're -- phyllis : i 'm not like abby . you do n't scare me . i can keep a secret . when i want to . adam : connor loves the ranch . you know , he feels safe there . and i appreciate everything you and dad have done to help through this difficult time . nikki : i would do anything for my grandchild . adam : i know you would , and i 'm very grateful . now , chelsea and i just need to figure out what to do about his school . winter break is almost over , and we still have n't figured out where he 's gon na go yet . nikki : i think i can help with that . after you and i last spoke , i phone walnut grove . i was able to persuade the principal to change her mind about removing connor from the school . adam : well , i did n't -- i did n't expect you to do that . nikki : i know you didn't . you said as much . but the best thing for connor is stability and familiarity . adam : mm . jack : hey . you okay ? nick : [ sighs ] i 'm losing chelsea . jack : talk to me . nick : ever since she moved in with adam to be with connor ... you know , i guess the writing was on the wall , but i just did n't want to see it . i really thought we had something real , but , as time goes by , i 'm less and less sure about that . we hardly see each other . when we do , something always cuts it short . and there 's this awkwardness that was never there . [ sighs ] i do n't know , i 'm starting to think that we 're together for the wrong reasons . it 's like she 's supposed to be with me , you know , because i 'm safe and because i 'm dependable and because i was there for her when she needed someone . but now ... it 's like she has this obligation to be with me . and it hurts like hell . jack : so , do you wait it out and hope things go back to the way they were , or do you walk away ? only you can answer that question . victor : ladies and gentlemen . you 're all so festively dressed , my goodness . i think it is time for a toast . we are weakening our enamel more often than we even realize . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . victor : jack , it has n't been often that i would like to toast to you on this occasion . it is so nice to know that so many of our family are together tonight . and i want to thank abby for her generous hospitality .

[ sighs ] i swear to god , this is the only place where i feel like i am ... not putting on an act . billy : well , i 'm glad you feel comfortable with me instead of waiting for me to implode , like everyone else i know . amanda : some people are just too self - absorbed to notice what 's going on with someone else . billy : [ sighs ] i got to go . yeah . i 'm really sorry . i hate to , but , uh .... can i -- can i walk you to your car ? amanda : the night is young . i am fine where i am . billy : is that right ? it 's , uh , gon na get pretty rowdy out there . amanda : mm , come on . i can take care of myself . billy : [ chuckles ] yeah , you can . okay , well , um ... you have my number if you need anything , okay ? happy new year . amanda : happy new year . chelsea : you having a good time ? nick : are you ? chelsea : i asked you first . you okay ? you seem a little preoccupied . nick : i did want a moment alone with you before the new year . chelsea : well , it 's been a crazy year . nick : no one was as surprised as i was when you came back into my life . it kind of seemed like it was inevitable . but it felt right , you know . we got another chance . our first time around was cut short . chelsea : because i cut it short . i took connor and left , basically threw a grenade in the middle of our lives . it was one the worst mistakes i 've ever made , and , considering my history , that 's saying a lot . i mean , nick , you did n't have to give me the time of day . you could have just told me to get lost , and i would have deserved it . nick : what you deserve is to be happy . chelsea : well , and so do you . you know , and we 've been good . yeah , it 's been a little complicated at times , but ... i am so grateful for you . nick : so am i. i 'm so grateful for what you 've done . by coming into my life and christian 's . but it 's become pretty clear to me ... that you should be with adam .

what are you doing ? theo : setting my intentions for the new year , like abby said . time to reaffirm your goals and get rid of whatever 's in the way . nick : i had to get my past feelings about adam . i did n't want to believe that he loved you , but i know he does , in his own way . and i refused to accept that you had a connection deeper than just sharing a child , but ... you do . there 's no denying it anymore . chelsea : nick ... please , i mean , this is -- we can get through this . we care about each other . nick : of course we do . of course . that 's never gon na change . nothing about this is easy , but it 's right . chelsea : well , i -- you do n't get to decide that for me . nick : look , if you 're being honest to yourself , and to me ... you need to be with him . and i want you to have that life that you were gon na have with him and connor far away from here , before that cabin blew up . chelsea : [ sighs ] nick : so i got to let you go . can you do the same for me ? chelsea : thank you . for everything you 've done for connor and me . you are a ... wonderful man . the best . nick : i do n't regret a minute of it . and i 'm so grateful for what you 've done for my life and christian 's . chelsea : [ sighs ] nick : but you do n't need a soft place to land . you need to follow your heart and live your life . abby : okay , everyone . it 's almost midnight . prepare to say `` out with the old , and in with the new . `` rey : all right , folks ! it 's getting to about that time ! mariah : i like it . tessa : yeah ?

billy : look , there 's nothing i can do about it . there 's an executive coming in from chicago , and he wants to meet . chance : i do n't suppose your new year 's resolution would be to stop harassing me about vegas . phyllis : you mean stop searching for your deep , dark secret ? nick : so adam tells you he still loves you . he 's put all his cards on the table . there 's no more being polite , no more rules , no limits as to what he 's gon na do to try and get you back . chelsea : it does n't matter how he feels . i 'm with you . i want you . nick : i ca n't forget who we 're dealing with here and what he 's capable of . chelsea : i ca n't do this . not now , not ever . i have a party to get to . adam : wait , abby 's new year 's bash at society ? chelsea : oh , you better not go . do n't you dare crash that party . adam : i do n't have to crash it . i 'm invited . abby : [ gasps ] victor : well , well , well ! abby : ah ! happy new year ! nikki : hi , honey ! victor : come here , come here . abby : oh , my goodness ! you look stunning ! nikki : oh , thank you . it looks beautiful in here . victor : gorgeous . gorgeous . abby : thank you ! i had such a blast planning and decorating . i just want this to be an unforgettable night . victor : well . i bet , you are bringing the abbotts and the newmans together in the same room , same night . that 's quite an accomplishment , really . abby : all right , this is neutral territory . you are all my family . and i think we can hit the `` pause `` button on the rivalry and enjoy saying `` adios `` to 2019 together . victor : hello , kyle , my boy . kyle : sounds like an excellent plan . victor , nikki , it 's good to see you both . abby : and what about me ?

[ clears throat ] hey . can i talk to you for a sec ? abby : i 'm sorry . did i go too far by inviting adam ? the last thing i would want to do is make you feel uncomfortable on your birthday . nick : i do n't blame you . somehow , i doubt you had much of a choice . victoria : hi . nick : hey . victoria : so , what did i miss ? billy : sorry i 'm not more talkative . amanda : do n't worry . i 'm not one of those people who ca n't sit in silence . billy : right ? one lull in the conversation , and they feel they need to fill it . amanda : sometimes it 's nice to just ... sit with a friend , zone out , no expectations . billy : you know , i got to say , when i sit here with you , i feel relieved , like i can -- like i can breathe . like i can be myself . amanda : you make me feel the same way . when you 're confident additional sponsorship sharon : do you think i bought enough hats and noise - makers ? rey : do you have more in the back ? sharon : mm - hmm . rey : well , then i 'd say we are covered . ah , here we go . what do you think , huh ? sharon : that 's it . it 's you . rey : yeah ? mariah : we 're here ! sharon : hey , you two ! rey : who 's ready to party ? mariah : we are ! tessa : mm - hmm . sharon : thank you both for giving up your new year 's eve for this . tessa : we 're not giving up anything . mariah : no , this is gon na be a blast . plus , i hear the entertainment is going to rock . phyllis : the bookings at the grand phoenix have been abysmal . i mean , and i 'm not just talking rooms . i am talking conventions and parties . this is really inexcusable for a new hotel like ours . chelsea : are you serious ? phyllis : yeah . that 's not the only reason i , uh , brought you over here . i was trying to save you from a potentially awkward situation with adam . chelsea : i do n't need you to do me any favors , phyllis . phyllis : mm , okay . well , i know the situation -- well , it 's obviously tense after , you know , adam asked me to make a play for nick so that you would leave nick and then run into adam 's waiting arms . chelsea : so thanks for not knifing me in the back ? phyllis : um , well , no . i mean , i would never let anybody use me like that . ever . and adam is obviously reverting to his old ways , and some women would know that that 's an unhealthy situation and they 're better off without him . chelsea : ah , `` some women , `` but not me . so you must see me as a fool in your eyes , huh ? just because i want to help my son heal , have both of his parents under the same roof ? phyllis : you are no fool , chelsea . and you are not naive . and you know when someone 's manipulating you because you are a master manipulator yourself . so , what is it , denial ? obfuscation ? it must be that . or maybe you know what you 're doing ... and you 're just trying to string nick along . chelsea : [ scoffs ] to what end ? phyllis : i do n't know . i really do n't , because you 're not doing anything to discourage adam . chelsea : that is not true . when nick told me what his brother did , i confronted him . i told him his behavior has been repulsive and completely inappropriate . phyllis : oh , wow ! and after that really stern talking to , adam is more hopeful than ever . and then you walk in here , on nick 's arm , like you 're the golden couple of genoa city . seriously ? who 's knifing who in the back ? change those numbers at the grand phoenix , or i 'll do it for you . summer : hey . hey , mom . hey . phyllis : hey ! summer : can you , uh -- can you just do me a favor ? phyllis : yeah , what is it ? summer : could you just not start anything with anyone tonight ? phyllis : i just want to be part of the celebration . sweetie , come on . summer : mom . mom ... when i saw you with chelsea , there was definitely something going on . phyllis : we were talking business . summer : yeah , right . phyllis : okay , excuse me . summer : mom , i know -- phyllis : oh ! summer : no , i know what i saw . i know how you feel about chelsea . now that she 's with dad , it just makes me wonder ... phyllis : wonder what ? summer : if you 're gon na use that as an excuse to try to go after him again . phyllis : are you kidding me ? summer , it 's a new year . i 'm not gon na revive stale relationships . summer : okay , then are you interested in someone new ? phyllis : i ... have no desire to get involved with anyone . this is my body of proof . theo : hey . kyle : theo . theo : mm . kyle : does n't seem like your type of thing . theo : command performance . abby reminded me i 'm part of the tribe now , so ... you know , i even made it into that book about the abbott family history . hmm . here 's to the future . nick : what was with phyllis dragging you off as soon as we walked in the door ? chelsea : [ scoffs ] it was just phyllis being phyllis , needing to insert herself , as always . nick : so she was n't supposed to tell me about adam trying to break us up ? chelsea : it does n't matter . i 'm here , with you because i choose to be . but i could use a glass of champagne . nick : i 'll be right back . chelsea : okay . victor : so ... you decided to make an appearance ? adam : yeah , imagine my surprise ... victor : mm - hmm . adam : ... being invited to a family event . victor : that 's right . adam : so , did you make any new year 's resolutions ? victor : you 're the second person to ask me that . adam : well ? victor : to keep better track of my medication . adam : [ chuckles ] victor : [ chuckles ] you and i know what happened , right ? they can think what they want . but you 're here . you 're determined to protect your son , and i 'm still walking upright , more ornery than ever , prepared for the new year . i think that 's a win , do n't you ? nikki : still no word from billy ? victoria : [ sighs ] it 's like christmas eve all over again . it 's okay , really . i mean , i ca n't fault him for wanting to succeed in his new role . nikki : you think it 's as simple as that ? victoria : i do n't know , mom . when we talked earlier , everything seemed fine . i just -- i picked up on this restless in him . nikki : you think he might have the urge to gamble again ? victoria : [ sighs ] the thought crossed my mind . but , i mean , it could just be this new consulting job . it 's not as challenging as what he was doing before . nikki : he has been dealing with a lot of major issues . i mean , maybe he was trying to communicate something to you . perhaps you were unaware of it . victoria : [ sighs ] what do you suggest ? nikki : maybe you could encourage him to go to a meeting . victoria : yeah , that 's not a bad thought . i would n't want him to backslide after all the progress that he 's made . amanda : when you said `` escape `` a minute ago , it reminded me . billy : of what ? amanda : i was in college . undergrad . the summer between junior and , uh , senior year . billy : mm . amanda : rihanna was on her first world tour ... billy : [ laughing ] oh , yes . amanda : so , josie , my friend , we drove all around going to a bunch of her u.s. shows . billy : i see you in a whole new light now . amanda : [ laughs ] billy : you and josie just -- amanda : oh , yeah , and she had this beater car -- mm . did n't matter , though . it got us from point a to point b , we stayed at cheap motels , we ate out of food trucks and vending machines ... billy : [ chuckles ] amanda : none of that mattered . we loved the music . we just loved the -- billy : the freedom . yeah . amanda : yeah . billy : so , what happened after that ? amanda : what do you think ? september came around , so i buckled down , went back to school , worked my tail off , took the lsats , started applying to law school , made all the right choices -- yay , me . billy : yeah , i know that feeling , you know ?

tell me the truth , billy . the whole truth , nothing but the truth . billy : because i feel alive for the first time in a long time . another cleaning tip from mr . clean . sharon : [ sighs ] fill her up , please ! mariah : yeah , of course . i have got a fresh one right here . sharon : that is such a cute blouse you 're wearing . mariah : oh , well , thank you . it was a christmas present from someone with amazing taste who knows me incredibly well . sharon : gee , i wonder who that could be . tessa : and i got this amazing bracelet from my own someone with amazing taste . sharon : [ gasps ] that is beautiful , just like the two of you . mariah : [ scoffs ] thank you . tessa : oh ! rey : yeah , so , you know , we 're staying open late so people can come in and regroup after a night of partying , maybe warm up with a cup of coffee , find a safe way home . sharon : stick around , watch the show for a bit . it 's our way of saying thanks for another terrific year . rey : you know , it 's a wonderful thing you 're doing for this community . sharon : well , i see it as more than just a public service . it 's a really nice way to ring in the new year with people who i care about the most . rey : well , with the right person , even work can be fun . sharon : i ca n't think of anywhere i 'd rather be . billy : [ sighs ] i know how lucky i am , i do , how , um ... how privileged . i mean , i have had opportunities that no one else gets . you know , people , they ... spend their lives trying to create this picture - perfect on the outside , and , uh ... and i 've tried , i 've -- i 've definitely tried to do that myself . i would say it 's for my kids . amanda : it 's obvious how much you love them . billy : yeah , i do . so much . they 're everything to me . but they 're smart . they have an intuition . they know when someone is trying to pull the wool over their eyes . [ sighs ] amanda : go on . billy : well , i tried to figure this out with my therapist , you know , when she was trying to heal me . and ... i do n't know , i feel like if the point of that is to just get in line and just do what everybody expects me to do , i feel like that 's part of the problem . i mean , i end up living in two different worlds . i feel like i 'm conflict with myself constantly . amanda : instead of one whole complicated person . billy : yeah , to just feel what i feel , to do what i feel is right , to just , you know , be who i am , to embrace both sides . phyllis : great party . chance : it has been , up till now . phyllis : i want to make sure we 're on the same page . chance : i 'm sure we 're not , whatever it is . phyllis : does abby know what happened in vegas ? chance : [ sighs ] phyllis : mm . i thought so . i guess you do n't want her to see you that way . chance : and what was is that ? phyllis : dangerous . might scare some women . chance : phyllis , if you 're -- phyllis : i 'm not like abby . you do n't scare me . i can keep a secret . when i want to . adam : connor loves the ranch . you know , he feels safe there . and i appreciate everything you and dad have done to help through this difficult time . nikki : i would do anything for my grandchild . adam : i know you would , and i 'm very grateful . now , chelsea and i just need to figure out what to do about his school . winter break is almost over , and we still have n't figured out where he 's gon na go yet . nikki : i think i can help with that . after you and i last spoke , i phone walnut grove . i was able to persuade the principal to change her mind about removing connor from the school . adam : well , i did n't -- i did n't expect you to do that . nikki : i know you didn't . you said as much . but the best thing for connor is stability and familiarity . adam : mm . jack : hey . you okay ? nick : [ sighs ] i 'm losing chelsea . jack : talk to me . nick : ever since she moved in with adam to be with connor ... you know , i guess the writing was on the wall , but i just did n't want to see it . i really thought we had something real , but , as time goes by , i 'm less and less sure about that . we hardly see each other . when we do , something always cuts it short . and there 's this awkwardness that was never there . [ sighs ] i do n't know , i 'm starting to think that we 're together for the wrong reasons . it 's like she 's supposed to be with me , you know , because i 'm safe and because i 'm dependable and because i was there for her when she needed someone . but now ... it 's like she has this obligation to be with me . and it hurts like hell . jack : so , do you wait it out and hope things go back to the way they were , or do you walk away ? only you can answer that question . victor : ladies and gentlemen . you 're all so festively dressed , my goodness . i think it is time for a toast . we are weakening our enamel more often than we even realize . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . victor : jack , it has n't been often that i would like to toast to you on this occasion . it is so nice to know that so many of our family are together tonight . and i want to thank abby for her generous hospitality .

[ sighs ] i swear to god , this is the only place where i feel like i am ... not putting on an act . billy : well , i 'm glad you feel comfortable with me instead of waiting for me to implode , like everyone else i know . amanda : some people are just too self - absorbed to notice what 's going on with someone else . billy : [ sighs ] i got to go . yeah . i 'm really sorry . i hate to , but , uh .... can i -- can i walk you to your car ? amanda : the night is young . i am fine where i am . billy : is that right ? it 's , uh , gon na get pretty rowdy out there . amanda : mm , come on . i can take care of myself . billy : [ chuckles ] yeah , you can . okay , well , um ... you have my number if you need anything , okay ? happy new year . amanda : happy new year . chelsea : you having a good time ? nick : are you ? chelsea : i asked you first . you okay ? you seem a little preoccupied . nick : i did want a moment alone with you before the new year . chelsea : well , it 's been a crazy year . nick : no one was as surprised as i was when you came back into my life . it kind of seemed like it was inevitable . but it felt right , you know . we got another chance . our first time around was cut short . chelsea : because i cut it short . i took connor and left , basically threw a grenade in the middle of our lives . it was one the worst mistakes i 've ever made , and , considering my history , that 's saying a lot . i mean , nick , you did n't have to give me the time of day . you could have just told me to get lost , and i would have deserved it . nick : what you deserve is to be happy . chelsea : well , and so do you . you know , and we 've been good . yeah , it 's been a little complicated at times , but ... i am so grateful for you . nick : so am i. i 'm so grateful for what you 've done . by coming into my life and christian 's . but it 's become pretty clear to me ... that you should be with adam .

eve : well , i thought it was when i suggested it , but now i 'm not so sure . you know , ethan and gwen so desperately want to have a child of their own , and given their history with theresa and the battle over little ethan , i 'm -- i 'm not so sure . julian : what say if we go to the cafeteria and have a cup of tea ? eve : hmm , no . being in your arms -- mmm -- that 's the support that i need . julian : of course . eve : you know , it 's like gwen and ethan and theresa are just locked in this three - way battle that 's never going to end . it reminds me so much of the situation with whitney and simone and chad before they found out that chad was their half brother . god , what a mess . i just so wish everybody could be happy again . julian : i wish that , too , but i 'm afraid it 'll never happen . i think that theresa will always be a thorn in gwen 's side , simone will always be at odds with whitney , just as liz will forever be looking at ways to hurt you . t.c . : i ca n't believe that eve would send me divorce papers . wait a minute . these did n't come from eve . they say they came from me . but i 've never spoke to anyone at russo , weiner , & sarnoff . let me give these people a call and find out what 's going on . liz : t.c . , wait . i had those papers drawn up . t.c . : what ?

tell him to call me and tell him to come home to his family ? no , if my husband were able to , he would come home . martin : you 're right , pilar . if your husband could be with you right now , i am sure that he would be . pilar : yes . all these years without him , hoping and praying . but if -- if alistair had anything to do with my husband 's disappearance , then maybe my husband ca n't come home . maybe -- maybe my martin is lost to me forever . sam : luis , now stop saying you 're going to kill your father . ok ?

t.c . : liz , all i 'm saying is this whole thing is just one horrible mess , and it 's not all eve 's fault . liz : if you 're still in love with eve , then call her . call her right now and tell her to come home . julian : eve , i know that i ca n't ease your pain over losing t.c . and your girls , but i 'm here for you nonetheless . eve : thank you , julian . i do n't know what i 'd do without you and your support . julian : and my love , all my love . eve : yes . and i love you , too . julian : but you miss t.c . eve : i miss the life we had together . i miss the family that we were together . julian : do you think you would go back to t.c . if you could ?

but i rose to the occasion , yeah . but i 'll tell you , there was n't a day that went by that i did n't think about my father . where was he ? was he ok ? was he coming back ? was he dead ? and it was funny , because i was at an age when other kids -- you know , they were losing sleep over who they were going to take to the big dance , and , well , i was losing sleep over how i was going to pay the mortgage . and then there was mama . you know , i -- boy , i remember her night after night just crying herself to sleep . she really missed my father . and there 'd be times when -- well , i 'd be coming home from work -- a double shift , of course -- and she 'd be cooking at the stove , crying , you know ? and she would always say it was just because of the onions . it wasn't . and -- and even after all the years that my father was gone , she never stopped believing in him . she never -- she never gave up . she always believed that he left for a reason , that it was something or someone that made him leave , like alistair . and for a long time , i believed that , too , you know . but then i started to get angry , because even if alistair had forced my father to leave , why did n't he at least contact us ? a letter , telephone call , anything , but you know what we got ? we got nothing ! and that 's why i 'm still angry at my father , because -- because he abandoned us . martin : what if he could n't come back ? what if he wanted to contact you , but could n't ? luis : yeah , well , i do n't buy it , mr . wheeler , because in all the years that my father 's been gone , there had to have been at least one chance when he could have told us something ! you know , aside from death , what other excuse is there for a man to leave his family like that ? but why do n't you tell me , mr . wheeler , because i sure as hell do n't know the answer . martin : i really ca n't say , luis . luis : no . no , i did n't think that you could , mr . wheeler . but there is one question about my father that i am sure you know the answer to . martin : what question is that , luis ? what is it you want to know ? riding riding julian : eve , you must n't assume that things are going to get worse . who knows ? things might even get better . eve : you know what ? that 's true . things could start to get better . ca n't get any worse . [ knock on door ] eve : come in . t.c . , what are you doing here ? t.c . : i came to see you , eve . liz : i told you we 'd find julian in eve 's office . my , are n't you a happy- looking couple ? eve : and what did you come to see me about ? liz : t.c . has something for you , eve . go ahead , t.c . give it to her . let her have it . pilar : gwen , i 'm sorry that the situation with theresa 's surrogacy has caused so much heartache for you and ethan . but i believe that saving one baby could end up causing more heartache than letting god decide their fate , even if both babies do n't make it . rebecca : pilar , you are such a downer . you know , gwen really ought to have a prescription just to talk with you . pilar : i -- i just pray that whatever the outcome is that the scars left by this terrible situation do n't affect all of you for the rest of your lives . theresa : both these babies ca n't survive . we have to sacrifice one in order to save the other . ethan : which one ? theresa : you tell me , ethan . you 're the father of both these babies . ethan : you 're asking me to play god . theresa : look , i planned to have the procedure to save our baby . but you have to make the decision since they are both yours . ethan : i 'm not sure i can do this . theresa : yes , you can . you have to . once i sign the consent form , i 'm going to be sealing the fate of both these babies . so what child do you want me to save , ethan ? our baby or yours and gwen 's ? sheridan : well , speaking of pilar , it sounds like she 's finally accepting that martin is not coming back . katherine : i got that sense as well . sheridan : it 's just been so hard on her , though , you know , wondering what really happened to him , wondering if he did abandon her and the family . she 's just been through so much . katherine : you know , not knowing what happened to a loved one , it 's just -- it 's always the hardest part . sheridan : at least i know that , you know , my mother did n't choose to abandon me and julian . she did n't have a choice . she died . martin : what do you have to ask me , luis ? what is it you want to know about your father ? luis : are you my father , mr . wheeler ? martin : what ? luis : are you my father , martin fitzgerald ? theresa : you want me to leave my baby 's life up to chance ? ethan : that 's exactly what i want . liz : my sister will not win . she 's going to lose everything . luis : why do n't you just admit it ? you 're nothing but a bum of a father who abandoned his wife and family . | theresa puts ethan on the line by asking him to choose whether to save his baby with gwen or theirs . he does n't want to make that decision . rebecca is still slithering around giving gwen doubts about theresa , as usual . pilar is accepting the fact that her husband left her and her kids for good and will never come back to her . luis , on the other hand , has proof that mr. wheeler is really martin fitzgerald and he faces him down with that question . sheridan is sad mrs. wheeler is leaving , saying it feels like she 's losing her mother all over again . | <s>[INST] rebecca : hmm . what did i do with my calculator , hmm ? ethan : why do you need that now ? rebecca : well , i want to figure out the odds of theresa actually ruining gwen 's chances of ever becoming a mother . ethan : rebecca , will you just -- just stop . rebecca : you know , what was i thinking ? you are so right . who needs a calculator ? we know she 's going to do something . she 's either going to change her mind , she 's going to refuse to do the procedure , or she will do the procedure and then try to keep the baby . gwen : can you please stop with these dire predictions ? mother , you are really stressing me out . rebecca : gwen , i am just trying to help here . forewarned is forearmed , and we know that one way or another theresa is going to find some way to hurt you again . ethan : you know what , rebecca ? if you 'd really like to help , maybe you could get gwen something to eat or something to drink . rebecca : fine . fine . i 'll go . but you trusting theresa to give you a child is going to come back to bite you both . i guarantee it . ethan : your mother is like a broken record when it comes to theresa . you know that ? gwen : well , as maddening as she is , honey , i think she actually has a point . i mean , what are the odds theresa will do something to try and keep us from having our baby ? honey , can you please just go talk to theresa and make sure she 's still going to have this procedure ? ethan : look , do n't -- do n't worry . do n't worry . i 'm sure theresa 's still planning to save one of the babies , ok ? come here . ethan 's voice : but which one ? theresa : thanks . eve : so , theresa , now that we know that one of the babies is gwen and ethan 's and the other is yours and ethan 's , are you still going to save your baby ? theresa : absolutely , dr . russell . that 's why i had you run the d.n.a . test , so i would know which baby to save . i hate that it 's come to this , but if i have to sacrifice one baby in order to save the other , as a mother i choose to save my baby . gwen wanted me to have this procedure . eve : gwen thinks that both babies are hers , so that even if one is taken she will still have a child of her own . theresa : if she were in my position , dr . russell , you know she would do the same thing . she would save her baby , just like i 'm saving mine . eve : well , i shudder to think what gwen would do if she finds out what you 're planning . t.c . : liz ? i was wondering who was making all this noise . liz : oh , t.c . , i wanted to surprise you by rearranging the furniture . what do you think ? t.c . : i found this old prescription pad upstairs . i thought all of eve 's things were gone . liz : well , let me throw it away for you . t.c . : eve used to say that love was the best medicine , so she would play dr . mom and prescribe the girls hugs and kisses , and me , she 'd give me bed rest . it was nice . liz : then maybe , but now it 's just another painful reminder of your lie of a life with eve . do n't dwell on the past , t.c . focus on your future . t.c . : liz , i 'm trying . but i do n't know if you can just forget everything about your past with a woman that you loved for so long .

martin : i know it 's hard , but no one knows who we really are . that 's why we have to leave harmony before they find out . pilar : sheridan , what 's wrong ? sheridan : i 'm not sure . i just called luis to tell him that the wheelers were leaving . i thought he might want to be here to say goodbye . pilar : i would think so , too . why ? is he not coming ? sheridan : oh , no , no . he 'll be here . pilar : so then what 's troubling you ? sheridan : he 's angry . pilar : at the wheelers ? sheridan : he told me not to let them leave until he got here . i wonder why . sam : luis , now , just take it easy , all right ? i know having mr . wheeler 's fingerprints match up to your father 's must have been a hell of a shock to you . but there 's got to be more to this than what we know . all right , your father must have had a hell of a good reason to leave town and to have plastic surgery to disguise himself . luis : look , sam , i do n't give a damn why he did what he did , ok ?

rebecca : oh . gwennie , when are you ever going to learn ? when theresa is concerned , nothing ever goes according to plan . ethan : i came to see how the d.n.a . test went . theresa : are you sure you want to know ? ethan : i have to know . theresa : you 're the father of both babies , ethan . ethan : and ? theresa : gwen 's the mother of one . the other baby is ours . ethan : oh , my god . theresa : that 's right . you fathered one with gwen and the other with me . ethan : you tricked me into sleeping with you . theresa : ethan , i thought i miscarried the embryo , and i needed to get pregnant again so i could get my son back . i need to know if you still want me to have this procedure . theresa : ethan , once i sign the consent form , it 's going to be on the condition that they take your baby with gwen to save ours . ethan : i ca n't believe it 's come to this . theresa : it does n't have to . i mean , i do n't have to sign the form . i do n't have to do the procedure . we can leave it in god 's hands . i need to know if you still want me to have this procedure , ethan . ethan : no . no . i do n't want you to lose either one of the babies . pilar : you know , maybe luis was upset because he does n't want the wheelers to leave before he gets a chance to say goodbye to them . i mean , the four of you have been through a lot together . sheridan : yeah . i suppose . katherine : is everything all right , sheridan ? sheridan : yeah , as far as i know . you know , i just got off the phone with luis , and he said he 's on his way over here to see you both . he wanted me to make sure that you did n't leave until he had a chance to talk to you . martin : yeah , well , our flight does n't leave for a while , so that should n't be a problem . sheridan : good , good . he was -- he was adamant about seeing you . katherine : well , we 'll be here . sheridan : great , great . excuse us . martin : i wonder why luis wants to see us . katherine : well , he probably wants to say goodbye . oh , if he already knew the truth , he would have confronted us . martin : yeah . you 're right . i mean , our secret 's safe and our children will be safe because of it . katherine : and you get to see luis one more time . martin : yeah , and say goodbye to my son face to face . sam : now , luis , do n't go off in a rage . there 's a lot about the wheelers that we do n't know . luis : well , we know wheeler 's the same scum who left my mother and us five kids for another woman . sam : maybe , maybe not . luis : what are you talking about , sam ? we saw the files , we downloaded them from crane industries , and wheeler 's fingerprints were a perfect match for my father 's -- hello . sam : true , but maybe alistair gave us some bogus information . luis : you 're kidding me , right ? because a little while ago you were trying to convince me that wheeler is my father . sam : i still think he is . even so , alistair could be manipulating you . luis : ok , how ? sam : look , i do n't know , ok ? say your father has something on alistair . maybe alistair wants you to kill martin before he tells us what he knows . luis : yeah , well , there was that whole thing about the gazebo . sam : that 's exactly what i mean . now , do n't go off and do something rash to play into alistair 's hands . luis : ok , so if alistair is behind this , then i simply have two people to kill -- alistair and my father . eve : julian . julian : hello . eve : oh , i 'm so glad to see you . julian : you having a rough day ? eve : oh , you have no idea . julian : oh , yeah ? what happened ? eve : well , theresa decided to have the procedure to save one of the babies . julian : well , is n't that best considering that both babies would n't make it if something were n't done ? eve : well , i thought it was when i suggested it , but now i 'm not so sure . you know , ethan and gwen so desperately want to have a child of their own , and given their history with theresa and the battle over little ethan , i 'm -- i 'm not so sure . julian : what say if we go to the cafeteria and have a cup of tea ? eve : hmm , no . being in your arms -- mmm -- that 's the support that i need . julian : of course . eve : you know , it 's like gwen and ethan and theresa are just locked in this three - way battle that 's never going to end . it reminds me so much of the situation with whitney and simone and chad before they found out that chad was their half brother . god , what a mess . i just so wish everybody could be happy again . julian : i wish that , too , but i 'm afraid it 'll never happen . i think that theresa will always be a thorn in gwen 's side , simone will always be at odds with whitney , just as liz will forever be looking at ways to hurt you . t.c . : i ca n't believe that eve would send me divorce papers . wait a minute . these did n't come from eve . they say they came from me . but i 've never spoke to anyone at russo , weiner , & sarnoff . let me give these people a call and find out what 's going on . liz : t.c . , wait . i had those papers drawn up . t.c . : what ? liz , why ? liz : well , i was trying to help you , t.c . you know , i look at you and i see a man in limbo , unable to go back to his past or to move on to something new and better . and i thought that filing for divorce from eve would be a good first step . t.c . : but it says here i get the house , i get the cars , our savings and investments . eve gets nothing . liz : well , of course , t.c . eve lied to you and whitney and simone . she broke your heart and destroyed your lives . you should take her to the cleaners . t.c . : no , no . liz , i 'm not that way , all right ? if we 're going to get a divorce , i want it to be fair . eve 's entitled to her share of everything that we built together . liz : no , she 's not , t.c . eve does n't deserve a damn thing . pilar : i want to thank you both again for watching over my paloma all those years . you are very special people to have been so kind and loving to a child that 's not your own . katherine : oh , pilar , it was our pleasure . we 're just so glad that paloma is back at home with you where she belongs and that your health is improving . pilar : yes . i have a lot to be grateful for . i just wish that -- martin : well , what , pilar ? what do you wish for ? pilar : well , i -- that my children are well and happy and that my -- that my husband would come home to me . you 're going to be traveling , all right ? maybe -- well , here . this is a picture of my husband martin shortly before he disappeared . of course , he 's a lot older now and the odds of your paths crossing are a million to one , but if you could just keep an eye out -- well , never mind . never mind . huh . well , i 'm crazy to think that you would ever run into him , and even if you did , what would you do ? tell him to call me and tell him to come home to his family ? no , if my husband were able to , he would come home . martin : you 're right , pilar . if your husband could be with you right now , i am sure that he would be . pilar : yes . all these years without him , hoping and praying . but if -- if alistair had anything to do with my husband 's disappearance , then maybe my husband ca n't come home . maybe -- maybe my martin is lost to me forever . sam : luis , now stop saying you 're going to kill your father . ok ? what if that 's what alistair wants ? you 'd go to jail , you 'd be torn apart from sheridan , which is what alistair has been wanting to do ever since you two fell in love . now , think about her . think about sheridan . luis : what , the same way my father thought about us when he took off ? sam : now , look , i understand that you 're angry . luis : yeah . sam : and if mr . wheeler turns out to be your father , well , he 's got a lot of explaining to do . luis : yeah , and he better have the right answers or he 's finished . singer : you are my passion for life t.c . : liz , why do you still feel the need to attack eve ? she lost me . she lost our daughters . she 's lost everything . liz : have you forgotten what she did , t.c . ? t.c . : but at some point , the pain has to stop . the war has to end . liz : wait . t.c . , it sounds like you 're forgiving eve . t.c . : liz , eve tried to tell me the truth about her past several times , and she was right . she was afraid that i would just go crazy and kill julian . i was always praising her about being the perfect mother and the perfect wife . i realize now that things might have turned out differently if i would have behaved differently towards eve . liz : are you falling back in love with eve , t.c . ? t.c . : liz , all i 'm saying is this whole thing is just one horrible mess , and it 's not all eve 's fault . liz : if you 're still in love with eve , then call her . call her right now and tell her to come home . julian : eve , i know that i ca n't ease your pain over losing t.c . and your girls , but i 'm here for you nonetheless . eve : thank you , julian . i do n't know what i 'd do without you and your support . julian : and my love , all my love . eve : yes . and i love you , too . julian : but you miss t.c . eve : i miss the life we had together . i miss the family that we were together . julian : do you think you would go back to t.c . if you could ?

ethan : i 'm saying that i do n't want either of my children to die . pilar : even if martin is alive , i have to stop hoping that he 's coming back . i think it 's time that i finally accepted the fact that he 's gone for good . martin : i think that 's for the best . pilar : ok , well , thank you again so much for everything . i have to go see my theresa at the hospital . martin : yeah , we 'd come with you to say goodbye , but sheridan promised luis that we 'd wait for him here . pilar : that 's all right . sheridan : yeah . pilar : i understand . theresa will be sorry to see you go . martin : and you tell her that i 'm sorry that we 're leaving . katherine : it 's for the best . pilar : goodbye . sheridan : come on . i 'll walk you out . martin : listen , i 'm going to go make some calls and finalize our arrangements , hmm ?

[ knock on door ] eve : come in . t.c . , what are you doing here ? t.c . : i came to see you , eve . liz : i told you we 'd find julian in eve 's office . my , are n't you a happy- looking couple ? eve : and what did you come to see me about ? liz : t.c . has something for you , eve . go ahead , t.c . give it to her . let her have it . pilar : gwen , i 'm sorry that the situation with theresa 's surrogacy has caused so much heartache for you and ethan . but i believe that saving one baby could end up causing more heartache than letting god decide their fate , even if both babies do n't make it . rebecca : pilar , you are such a downer . you know , gwen really ought to have a prescription just to talk with you . pilar : i -- i just pray that whatever the outcome is that the scars left by this terrible situation do n't affect all of you for the rest of your lives . theresa : both these babies ca n't survive . we have to sacrifice one in order to save the other . ethan : which one ? theresa : you tell me , ethan . you 're the father of both these babies . ethan : you 're asking me to play god . theresa : look , i planned to have the procedure to save our baby . but you have to make the decision since they are both yours . ethan : i 'm not sure i can do this . theresa : yes , you can . you have to . once i sign the consent form , i 'm going to be sealing the fate of both these babies . so what child do you want me to save , ethan ? our baby or yours and gwen 's ? sheridan : well , speaking of pilar , it sounds like she 's finally accepting that martin is not coming back . katherine : i got that sense as well . sheridan : it 's just been so hard on her , though , you know , wondering what really happened to him , wondering if he did abandon her and the family . she 's just been through so much . katherine : you know , not knowing what happened to a loved one , it 's just -- it 's always the hardest part . sheridan : at least i know that , you know , my mother did n't choose to abandon me and julian . she did n't have a choice . she died . martin : what do you have to ask me , luis ? what is it you want to know about your father ? luis : are you my father , mr . wheeler ? martin : what ? luis : are you my father , martin fitzgerald ? theresa : you want me to leave my baby 's life up to chance ? ethan : that 's exactly what i want . liz : my sister will not win . she 's going to lose everything . luis : why do n't you just admit it ? you 're nothing but a bum of a father who abandoned his wife and family .Summarize.[/INST]theresa puts ethan on the line by asking him to choose whether to save his baby with gwen or theirs . he does n't want to make that decision . rebecca is still slithering around giving gwen doubts about theresa , as usual . pilar is accepting the fact that her husband left her and her kids for good and will never come back to her . luis , on the other hand , has proof that mr. wheeler is really martin fitzgerald and he faces him down with that question . sheridan is sad mrs. wheeler is leaving , saying it feels like she 's losing her mother all over again .</s> | 1,497 |

sheridan : yes ! i was going to give the money to luis so that he and pilar could repay rebecca , but father froze my bank account . antonio : alistair froze your bank accounts ? why ? luis : because she was trying to help me , that 's why . sheridan : he said that i needed protecting . he said that because i 'd just gotten out of the psychiatric ward that i was n't in myigight mind . he said he was n't going to let anyone take advantage of me . antonio : so if you could n't repay the debt , then mama would lose her house . sheridan : yes , antonio . unless we come up with some kind of miracle . antonio : i 'm sorry , luis . i did n't know . luis : yeah , i know . look , i came here for the money , ok ? i did n't want to , but i did n't know where else to turn . sheridan : he was right to come to me . you have to undersndnd that . it was very hard for him to do what he did . but we have to figure out a way to try and keep this house . we have to work together . all right ? we just have to . c luis : sheridan was my only hope . without her , i do n't know how we 're going to get mama 's house back . sheridan : look , there has to be another way . luis : well , if there is , i do n't know what it is . antonio : well , luis , are you saying you got fired from your job because rebecca got you fired or what ? luis : no , i did it on my own . sam suspended me because i discharged my weapon in the hospital . rebecca got theresa , mama , and miguel fired , though . antonio : i just ca n't believe that julian 's given her so much power . sheridan : well , she must have something on julian . what , i do n't know . luis : well , rebecca 's just trying to get revenge on theresa . she blames her for gwen losing her baby . antonio : yeah , but to get everybody fired and try to take mama 's house ? luis : yeah , well , like i said , alistair 's in on it . he 's the one who 's behind this whole thing and he gave her the power . sheridan : luis , how is your mother doing ? i feel so bad . how is she handling everything ? luis : she 's trying to keep it together , but she 's devastated . sheridan : i 'm so sorry . luis : don'hing that you can . now , look , antonio , i know how you feel about me , but maybe you can just put that aside for a while and think of a way to help , all right ? antonio : i 'm thinking . luis : damn it . you know , i ca n't go to mama and tell her that there 's no hope and that we ca n't get her house back . sheridan : there has to be a way that we can stop this . luis : yeah , i wish i could believe that , but your father 's pretty much closed off all the avenues . sheridan : if i thought talking to my father would help , i would , but he just does n't hear a word i say . i 'm so sorry . antonio : sheridan , hey , it 's not your fault for your father 's actions , ok ? luis : no , it 's not . your father 's made it his mission to ruin my life . he took away our family 's home , just like he took you away from me . i 'm telling you , sheridan , you were brainwashed in that hospital . that 's the only reason that you chose antonio over me . antonio : here we go again . you know what , luis , you need to accept something -- she chose me , not you . she loves me . now , i feel terrible about what 's happened to you , miguel , theresa , they want to take mama 's house , but you know what , i am fed up to here with this stuff ! i 'm not going to tell you again . you get out of this house . i do n't ever want to see you again . liz : no , t.c . , i 'm not trying to destroy your family . i had my reasons for hiring whitney to sing at the nightclub . and when i tell you why , you 'll understand everything -- about whitney and about eve . julian : you ca n't know how happy that makes me that you do n't have regrets about us . eve : just to know that you did love me and how much you love me now -- you and our son , you make everything i went through almost -- almost worthwhile . except , of course , for the people who get hurt . julian : but you know you never wanted to hurt whitney . eve : julian , i never wanted to hurt anyone . but that 's not your fault , and you should never , ever blame yourself . i do n't blame you . i think in some ways , you 're the best thing that ever happened to me . julian : oh , eve .

whitney : yeah , every single time . she just lietoto me right in my face . theresa : she 's still totally against you having a singing career , right ? whitney : oh , yeah , totally . but you know what -- i mean , listen to me , here i am carrying on about something like this when i know you just found out that rebecca 's trying to get legal custody of little ethan . theresa : no , she wo n't , because i 'm going to fight her till my dying breath . fox : you know , i almost feel sorry for my father being married to her . she 's some piece of work , is n't she ?

sheridan : rebecca says that theresa used the crane to rebuild the house when she thought she was married to julian . well , now , rebecca wants that money repaid . antonio : repaid ? mama does n't have that kind of money . none of us do . sheridan : no , i know ! that 's why when luis told me that they all lost their jobs -- they have no hope of getting a new mortgage -- so i went to the bank to try and get that money . antonio : you were going to repay rebecca ? sheridan : yes ! i was going to give the money to luis so that he and pilar could repay rebecca , but father froze my bank account . antonio : alistair froze your bank accounts ? why ? luis : because she was trying to help me , that 's why . sheridan : he said that i needed protecting . he said that because i 'd just gotten out of the psychiatric ward that i was n't in myigight mind . he said he was n't going to let anyone take advantage of me . antonio : so if you could n't repay the debt , then mama would lose her house . sheridan : yes , antonio . unless we come up with some kind of miracle . antonio : i 'm sorry , luis . i did n't know . luis : yeah , i know . look , i came here for the money , ok ? i did n't want to , but i did n't know where else to turn . sheridan : he was right to come to me . you have to undersndnd that . it was very hard for him to do what he did . but we have to figure out a way to try and keep this house . we have to work together . all right ? we just have to . c luis : sheridan was my only hope . without her , i do n't know how we 're going to get mama 's house back . sheridan : look , there has to be another way . luis : well , if there is , i do n't know what it is . antonio : well , luis , are you saying you got fired from your job because rebecca got you fired or what ? luis : no , i did it on my own . sam suspended me because i discharged my weapon in the hospital . rebecca got theresa , mama , and miguel fired , though . antonio : i just ca n't believe that julian 's given her so much power . sheridan : well , she must have something on julian . what , i do n't know . luis : well , rebecca 's just trying to get revenge on theresa . she blames her for gwen losing her baby . antonio : yeah , but to get everybody fired and try to take mama 's house ? luis : yeah , well , like i said , alistair 's in on it . he 's the one who 's behind this whole thing and he gave her the power . sheridan : luis , how is your mother doing ? i feel so bad . how is she handling everything ? luis : she 's trying to keep it together , but she 's devastated . sheridan : i 'm so sorry . luis : don'hing that you can . now , look , antonio , i know how you feel about me , but maybe you can just put that aside for a while and think of a way to help , all right ? antonio : i 'm thinking . luis : damn it . you know , i ca n't go to mama and tell her that there 's no hope and that we ca n't get her house back . sheridan : there has to be a way that we can stop this . luis : yeah , i wish i could believe that , but your father 's pretty much closed off all the avenues . sheridan : if i thought talking to my father would help , i would , but he just does n't hear a word i say . i 'm so sorry . antonio : sheridan , hey , it 's not your fault for your father 's actions , ok ? luis : no , it 's not . your father 's made it his mission to ruin my life . he took away our family 's home , just like he took you away from me . i 'm telling you , sheridan , you were brainwashed in that hospital . that 's the only reason that you chose antonio over me . antonio : here we go again . you know what , luis , you need to accept something -- she chose me , not you . she loves me . now , i feel terrible about what 's happened to you , miguel , theresa , they want to take mama 's house , but you know what , i am fed up to here with this stuff ! i 'm not going to tell you again . you get out of this house . i do n't ever want to see you again . liz : no , t.c . , i 'm not trying to destroy your family . i had my reasons for hiring whitney to sing at the nightclub . and when i tell you why , you 'll understand everything -- about whitney and about eve . julian : you ca n't know how happy that makes me that you do n't have regrets about us . eve : just to know that you did love me and how much you love me now -- you and our son , you make everything i went through almost -- almost worthwhile . except , of course , for the people who get hurt . julian : but you know you never wanted to hurt whitney . eve : julian , i never wanted to hurt anyone . but that 's not your fault , and you should never , ever blame yourself . i do n't blame you . i think in some ways , you 're the best thing that ever happened to me . julian : oh , eve .

for being such a bad cop ? dinah : nah , you did n't bust me for the gun . mallet : yeah , well i 'm pissed about the gun . i should have busted you for it . but you know the last few weeks have taught me a little thing called perspective . you running around with an illegal firearm is n't nearly as bad as my wife being a potential murderer . dinah : what ?

how did we get from jeffrey to marina ? what , what , could you possibly imagine would make her do something ... mallet : the evidence . i mean marina knew that shayne was henry 's father . and she hid it from everybody in town . and now i know that edmund knew that truth too . so what if edmund confronted marina with the truth about henry ? well , then that means nobody had more of a reason to want him dead than marina . dinah : that 's not true . plenty of people had reasons to want edmund dead . mallet : well then i got the stroller . dinah : what ? mallet : the stroller , after the barbecue i noticed that henry 's stroller had a big crack in it . dinah : okay , so ? mallet : yeah , okay , so , the plastic in the stroller is the same plastic used to bash in the skull of the victim . dinah : that kind of plastic is everywhere . mallet : yes , it is , it is everywhere . but the problem is it 's a match . dinah : so that 's it , that is what you have got . mallet : yes , i have got that and plus reva and shayne told me that jeffrey set himself up . dinah : yes , we know that jeffrey is not guilty . mallet : well , that 's fantastic , that 's fantastic , because that means that that leaves out reva and that leaves my wife . and my heart wants it to be reva but my gut tells me it 's probably marina . dinah : okay . so what are you going to do ? what are your options ? you know , because you ca n't turn her in . because you love her . and you love henry . and you love your family . mallet : yes , i do , i do love them . dinah : right so , what are your options ? mallet : i do n't know . dinah : i 'm going to tell what your options are . you are going to let this go . you are going to let this go . you are you going to leave well enough alone so that you can be happy . mallet : the same way that you are letting it go ? i mean you are running around chasing edmund with a gun in your purse instead of having a life with shayne . dinah : point taken . we have the same problem . we have happiness right in front of us and we just want to make it better than it is . instead of just letting it be . mallet : why do we make that choice ? why are things so hard ? dinah : i do n't know . that 's because that 's what we do . but we can stop it . i will , if you will . from this moment on , i vow to stop stirring the pot . mallet : dinah , what if marina is guilty . dinah : happy . mallet : no pot - stirring ?

[ scene_break ] dinah : anything ? mallet : nothing , not yet , you ? dinah : it 's like no one has ever moved into this room . mallet : nothing ! dinah : all right . sorry that i brought you to this place . mallet : no , no , no , it 's still a good lead . listen , edmund has got to be paying for this room somehow . so maybe i can track it through a credit card company . dinah : well , i already tried that . found out that the credit card was registered to a company out of turks and caicos . mallet : great , offshore , they do n't keep any records . dinah : thanks anyway . mallet : for what ? for being such a bad cop ? dinah : nah , you did n't bust me for the gun . mallet : yeah , well i 'm pissed about the gun . i should have busted you for it . but you know the last few weeks have taught me a little thing called perspective . you running around with an illegal firearm is n't nearly as bad as my wife being a potential murderer . dinah : what ? mallet : there 's a good possibility that marina was the one who tried to kill edmund and wound up killing some other poor bastard instead . dinah : you think marina did this ? mallet : i do n't think , i know . dinah : what kind of evidence do you have ? how did we get from jeffrey to marina ? what , what , could you possibly imagine would make her do something ... mallet : the evidence . i mean marina knew that shayne was henry 's father . and she hid it from everybody in town . and now i know that edmund knew that truth too . so what if edmund confronted marina with the truth about henry ? well , then that means nobody had more of a reason to want him dead than marina . dinah : that 's not true . plenty of people had reasons to want edmund dead . mallet : well then i got the stroller . dinah : what ? mallet : the stroller , after the barbecue i noticed that henry 's stroller had a big crack in it . dinah : okay , so ? mallet : yeah , okay , so , the plastic in the stroller is the same plastic used to bash in the skull of the victim . dinah : that kind of plastic is everywhere . mallet : yes , it is , it is everywhere . but the problem is it 's a match . dinah : so that 's it , that is what you have got . mallet : yes , i have got that and plus reva and shayne told me that jeffrey set himself up . dinah : yes , we know that jeffrey is not guilty . mallet : well , that 's fantastic , that 's fantastic , because that means that that leaves out reva and that leaves my wife . and my heart wants it to be reva but my gut tells me it 's probably marina . dinah : okay . so what are you going to do ? what are your options ? you know , because you ca n't turn her in . because you love her . and you love henry . and you love your family . mallet : yes , i do , i do love them . dinah : right so , what are your options ? mallet : i do n't know . dinah : i 'm going to tell what your options are . you are going to let this go . you are going to let this go . you are you going to leave well enough alone so that you can be happy . mallet : the same way that you are letting it go ? i mean you are running around chasing edmund with a gun in your purse instead of having a life with shayne . dinah : point taken . we have the same problem . we have happiness right in front of us and we just want to make it better than it is . instead of just letting it be . mallet : why do we make that choice ? why are things so hard ? dinah : i do n't know . that 's because that 's what we do . but we can stop it . i will , if you will . from this moment on , i vow to stop stirring the pot . mallet : dinah , what if marina is guilty . dinah : happy . mallet : no pot - stirring ? dinah : do i get to keep the gun ? mallet : i really do n't know . i ca n't say one way or another , because i guess i 'm not stirring the pot . dinah : ( laughs ) [ scene_break ] shayne : hey , dad . josh : hey son , everything okay ?

what 's going on ? josh : no , no , nothing new . but you know your mom , she 's not about to give up . so ... shayne : yeah , no , she wo n't . hey , you have n't heard from dinah , have you ? josh : it 's funny you ask me that question because , in fact , she has called . shayne : she did n't happen to say where she was , did she ? josh : no , is there some problem ? shayne : nothing , nothing , just worried about her . she 's really upset about jeffrey . anyway , what 's next for you guys ? josh : we 've chartered a helicopter . we 're going to take off in a little bit and do a search on our own . after that , i do n't know . shayne : a helicopter , wow . may i talk to mom ?

'cause you still got a thing for sonny . and you always have , and you always will . [ scene_break ] sam : sonny , you know me . i never would 've broken patrick 's confidence , but silas was adamant that patrick left rafe brain - dead . so i did n't have a choice . i had to talk to him about it . because i thought i would be able to convince silas that patrick did everything he could to save rafe . sonny : right . but silas was n't convinced . sam : no . and patrick only told me . i told silas . that was it . no one else could have talked to the reporter . sonny : did you ask silas about it ? sam : yeah , i did . and he said he did n't say anything to anyone . he swore to it . sonny : but you did n't believe him . sam : at the time , no . but ... oh , i do n't know . it turns out it 's something that we both ca n't get past . sonny : well , you know what , trust is very important . it 's a deal breaker , you know ? sam : it 's a little bit more complicated than that , sonny . silas ' wife , nina , when she showed up , everything just felt weird . it did n't feel right . it was like ... we were trying too hard , or not hard enough . i - i do n't know . it was the final straw , and we broke up over it . sonny : i 'm sorry to hear that . sam : thank you . that 's why i just -- i ca n't let this go . i need to know if someone was eavesdropping on silas and me . sonny : i saw footage of you and silas on the roof , if that 's what you 're looking for . sam : you did ? okay , did you see anyone else with us ? sonny : i did n't -- i did n't look at the whole thing , but you can look at the dvds , they 're right there . sam : ohh . thank you . [ scene_break ] silas : sam and i , just everything that i thought we ... that we had , i just ... it 's gone . well , i do n't know . maybe i was blind , and maybe it was never really there . nina : i know what that feels like . to have a love that you believed in with all your heart . silas : oh , nina , what am i doing ? why am i -- i 'm sorry . nina : no , do n't be sorry . silas : no , i - i should n't be dumping all this on you . what -- [ sighs ] i must have drank a lot . nina : i - i think you 're probably exhausted , silas . you 've been through so much in the last 24 hours . why do n't you just ... why do n't you just lie on the couch ? silas : [ sighs ] nina : here . silas : what ? no . i 'm fine . nina : yes . yes . hey , do n't argue with me . just lie on the couch . take a rest . come on . silas : i am kind of tired . nina : yeah , i 'm sure . silas : maybe just for a minute . nina : okay . silas : [ sighs ] nina : there you go . silas : oh ... nina : hey , do you remember when i used to massage your shoulders when you 'd come home from a long shift during your residency ? after 24 hours shifts or something ? oh , you 'd be ... do you remember that ? you 'd be so exhausted , but so wired you could n't sleep . and so i 'd just help you relax . silas : oh , that feels nice . nina : good . i 'm so glad . i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry about your nephew . i 'm sorry he died . and i 'm sorry that sam does n't trust you . silas : no matter what i said , she ... she just would n't listen to me . she still thinks i betrayed her . nina : to be honest , sam 's is n't right ? by not believing in you . to hold onto that ... silas : i just do n't understand , though . why ... if i did n't say anything to that reporter , and sam -- sam did n't say anything , how 'd that reporter find out what drake said ? [ scene_break ] mickey : jordan , what 's going on here ? jordan : i - i 'm so sorry . i ... i ran into olivia falconeri . um ... she 's -- she 's one of the owners , and she let me in , and ... i wanted to surprise you . um ... but i guess he followed me , and , uh , he knocked on the door , and -- and -- and when i answered , he pushed his way in . mickey : is that so ? jordan : he 's obsessed with me . look , anything that you think is gon na happen between us , you can just get it out of your head right now , okay ? 'cause whatever we had ended a long time ago . so do yourself a favor and just leave us , please . mickey : you heard the lady . she made herself pretty clear . so are you going to leave peaceably ... or are we gon na have trouble ? shawn : okay . i 'll go . but i do n't like it , jordan . jordan : i know what i want . shawn : you mess with this woman , you 'll deal with me . mickey : you still here ? shawn : but what 's the point ? you made your bed . i guess you 'll lie in it . jordan : i 'm really sorry about that . i 'm sorry . mickey : forget butler . i was just happy to get your call . when you said you wanted to pick up where we left off ... i hope that means we 're on the same page . [ scene_break ] alexis : yes , julian and i have decided to cool it . molly : that 's great news , is n't it , danny ? i mean , i know he 's your grandpa , but you have plenty of other relatives who are much more trustworthy . alexis : instead of turning danny against his grandfather , perhaps you and tj might put him to bed ? tj : uh - oh , buddy . busted by the bedtime police . alexis : yeah , the only bedtime police is his mother . and if we do n't get him to bed when she said he 's supposed to go to bed , we 're all gon na be in trouble . so i 'll order a pizza while you do that , okay ? tj : all right . come on , danny , let 's get you to sleep . molly : come on . [ danny cries ] molly : oh , i know . i know . we got to go night - night . alexis : all right . i love you . molly : oh , it 's okay . alexis : night - night , sweetheart . julian : hey , alexis , it 's , uh , julian . but i 'm sure you knew that . that 's why you did n't answer the phone . but do n't worry . i understand . i , uh , was just checking in on you , and ... [ scene_break ] julian : so , you confessed to shooting olivia , that 's why sonny 's holding onto a recording that taps him at aj 's death ? i do n't see it . the falconeri woman made a full recovery . it 's not quite the same as murder . ava : well , true , but i shot her . it 's enough to send me to prison . all the more reason to liberate the flash drive . julian : [ sighs ] okay , so where is it ? ava : well , it was in the safe in sonny 's office . i already sent someone to try to get it . julian : who ? ava : my mother . julian : i - i 'm sorry , who ? ava : my mother . julian : are you serious ? ava : i was desperate . julian : so , how 'd that work out for you ? ava : olivia caught her in the act , and now sonny has the flash drive stashed someplace else . maybe somewhere in his house , or maybe in a house that he 's got on a puerto rican island . who knows ? julian : so , if we ca n't get our hands on the proof , how is this gon na help us ? ava : you 're right . if sonny had the only copy , then this would be a lost cause . julian : someone else has a copy ? ava : well , i do n't know for certain . but i think that the person who gave the recording to sonny would be smart enough to keep one . julian : so , the copy 's our target . so who gave sonny the recording ? ava : carly . [ scene_break ] carly : excuse me . i understand you 're pissed off , i do n't blame you , but do n't take it out on me . ned : olivia , this is n't the time to have this conversation . olivia : no , no , no . i 'm not done here . i 'm not done here . no , i 'm not done here . i should 've known that sonny and i would never last . not because of ava and not because of my cousin , god rest her soul , but because of you . because of you . yeah , you . wife , ex , does n't matter . you and sonny always come first to each other , and all the rest of us -- you , me , everyone else -- we 're all just temporary dance partners , just so you know . carly : i 'm sorry . sonny betrayed you , not me . olivia : oh , yeah . and what would happen if he did ? oh , you would 've screamed and yelled , maybe put your kids through the wringer for a while . but when the dust settled , your first loyalty is always to each other . it always has been and it always will be . ned : and we are out of here . yes , you do n't want to do this in front of your staff and your guests . carly : i 'm sorry about that . franco : no big deal . just another person in the world who thinks there 's a magical connection between you and sonny . [ scene_break ] sonny : it does n't look like anybody else is up there with you two . sam : mm , you 're right . but our conversation 's not over yet . i mean , when we 're right here , we were talking about rafe and -- and silas ' grief for him , and then we started talking about patrick . wait a minute . sonny : what ? sam : what was that ? look , right there . ah ! come on , the door opened . it 's too heavy to do that on its own . sonny : well , i ca n't -- it 's got to open further than that a little bit . i ca n't see . sam : you do n't see anyone 's face , do you ? sonny : no . sam : okay , that 's fine . this still proves that someone was eavesdropping on silas and me . it has to be nina . [ scene_break ] nina : do n't even think about that reporter , si . most important thing is that sam , she could n't trust you . she thought you lied to her . silas : i was just ... i do n't know . how 'd the reporter know ? [ falls asleep ] nina : silas ? si ? you want to know how that reporter knew ? i told him . i 'm the one who ended your relationship with sam . and now sam is off the list . and soon you will be , too . [ scene_break ] jordan : i want to be part of the organization . i want to be heavy - hitter , meet the big boss . and i 'm willing to do whatever 's necessary to get there . mickey : oh , i 'm glad to hear you say that , 'cause i appreciate loyalty . yeah , i 've found that some people in this business have their own agenda . jordan : hmm . mickey : yeah . unfortunately , i 've discovered recently that some people in our organization are in business for themselves , and i 've had to take steps to bring them in line . someone is going to have to learn the hard way . [ scene_break ] [ cell phone rings ] julian : hold that thought . alexis . alexis : i got your message . glad you were thinking about me , 'cause i was thinking about you . julian : and molly ? alexis : she came home with me . julian : well , that 's great . alexis : it is great . tj 's here , danny 's sleeping over , they 're putting the baby to bed , we 're ordering pizza . it 's perfect . julian : enjoy it . alexis : i am . i just wanted to call you back and tell you that i love you , too . julian : and ... ? alexis : and i ca n't wait to sneak around with you again . okay , look , i got to go , because , uh , the kids are gon na be done and back soon . julian : okay . listen , um ... means a lot to me that you called . you have a good night . alexis : you too . i miss you . julian : [ sighs ] okay . you can save your comments for when you do n't owe me proof that sonny shot aj quartermaine . so , you were saying about carly ? ava : she hates me . and the feeling is very mutual . so it only stands to reason that she -- she would n't give the only copy to sonny . she would keep one . to use against me . julian : well , it is true that carly and i briefly dated when i first got back to town , but we 're not exactly on the best of terms either . so however way we do this , she 's gon na see us coming from a mile away . ava : maybe there 's someone that she would n't see coming . [ scene_break ] franco : pasta 's good . carly : do you have a magical connection with it ? [ scene_break ] olivia : you got a skill for seeing me at my best . ned : please , i 'm a quartermaine . nothing you do can come close to what 's gone on in my family . olivia : still , you know what ? i 'm sorry that i keep dragging you into the middle of my messed - up life . ned : i do n't mind . [ scene_break ] sam : okay . i guess that 's it . sonny : sorry i could n't give you the evidence you needed . sam : no , are you kidding me ? this is amazing . i 've got to tell silas that someone was actually eavesdropping . thank you , sonny . thank you . sonny : of course , of course . sam . this silas guy , um ... he makes you happy ? sam : i thought so . i mean , i - i - i thought we were happy . i ca n't let it go , sonny . not until i know why things fell apart . sonny : do n't -- do n't let this nina get away with it . i could n't get olivia back , but maybe this will help you , you know , and silas ... get back together . [ scene_break ] nina : i think that drug worked a little too well . i wanted you to be receptive . ca n't really get a baby out of you if you 're unconscious . can i ? well , this is funny . so ironic . the reason i 'm in this predicament is because my mom drugged me . well , that 's the whole reason i 'm in this predicament , right ? oh , it 's poetic justice , is n't it ? [ sighs ] i lost my baby because of a drug . and now i 'm gon na get a baby because of a drug . silas ? silas . silas : what happened ? nina : um ... i guess my relaxation technique works . silas : i guess so . nina : yeah . silas : so tired . nina : yeah . listen , i - it 's been an exhausting day . you ... listen , i 'd love to join you on the couch . it would be a lot more comfortable than this chair . silas : okay . yeah . [ groans ] nina : i know . i 'm sorry . silas : [ groans as he picks up nina and places her on the couch with him ] [ scene_break ] shawn : hey . sonny : find anything in mickey diamond 's room ? shawn : oh , yeah . jordan . [ scene_break ] jordan : thanks . mickey : i think it 's time to get this party started . shawn : i do n't know what this is all about , but look , whatever it is , jordan , you do n't have to do it . mickey : something wrong ? jordan : no . no , no . i , um , i just think i want to freshen up a little . mickey : oh , all right . while you 're during that , i think i 'll make one for myself . jordan : mm . perfect . [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] alexis : you did n't get him to bed ? tj : he 's on strike . he refuses to sleep without his favorite truck . alexis : i do n't suppose it 's in the overnight bag ? molly : it 's in his room at sam 's . alexis : [ groans ] [ knock on door ] alexis : hey , chris . chris : hey , miss davis . i got your regular , but no pineapple this time . alexis : yeah , well , the pineapple craver 's not here . but i have the rest of my beautiful family here , so we 're gon na celebrate . so , what 's the damage ? chris : well , with your frequent - customer discount , it 's $ 16 . [ scene_break ] ava : like i told carly , franco has quite a jealous streak and poor impulse control . i can not imagine that he appreciates carly becoming some sort of avenging angel for another man . especially sonny . julian : so , i take it that franco and sonny do n't get along . ava : is there anybody that franco does get along with ? but , yes , there does seem to be particular enmity between sonny and franco . i think that franco might be willing to procure that recording for us . with the right motivation . [ scene_break ] franco : sorry i said that . carly : can you be a little more specific ? franco : i 'm sorry i brought it up at all . i should know better than to talk about the special bond that you have with sonny . although , in fairness , olivia 's the one who started it . carly : yeah , olivia is upset . her heart 's been broken , and sonny 's not here , so i 'm the next best thing . franco : okay , but what she said -- carly : what she said about me being loyal to sonny ? yes , i am loyal to sonny , which is why i 'm not gon na evict him or kick him out of his office for the crime of breaking olivia 's heart . whether she forgives him or not , that 's her business . franco : no , what she said , that you want sonny all to yourself . carly : that 's olivia thinking crazy things , all right ? there 's no basis in reality of that . franco : right , 'cause she 's the town crackpot , and we should all just be thankful she 's not walking around in a trance . carly : true . and look -- i - if you 're gon na decide to be jealous of sonny again , i 'm just gon na have to be jealous of your new friend at the hospital . what 's her name , nina ? franco : nina . carly : mm . franco : yeah , we -- we talked about that . i 'm not interested in her at all . besides , she 's married . [ scene_break ] silas : i - i 'm sorry . i must have lost my balance . .. i 'm hurting you . nina : no , no . no . no , no . you 're not hurting me . i 'm -- i 'm completely comfortable . this is where we belong . [ knocking on door ] [ knocking on door ] silas : someone 's knocking . nina : unh - unh . there 's nothing . maybe it 's just my heart pounding . [ pounding on door ] silas : i definitely hear someone knocking . [ pounding continues ] nina : it 's nothing . we 're the only two people in the world right now . [ scene_break ] ava : done and done . julian : you hope . ava : i 'm telling you , julian . it 's all taken care of . [ scene_break ] carly : i wo n't be long . i promise . franco : all right . i guess i 'll head back and see what bobbie and lucas are up to . maybe they want to watch `` shark tank . `` carly : oh , i 'm really sorry to miss that . franco : yeah , i bet you are . fellas . oh , you two have a strange sense of personal space . [ scene_break ] olivia : i really hope they find a heart for alice . you will all be in my prayers . ned : thank you . thanks for listening . it 's nice to be able to confide in somebody . olivia : oh , please . it 's the least i can do after you listened to me pour my heart out over stupid sonny . [ scene_break ] sonny : what about jordan ? shawn : she was in mickey 's room . sonny : what is she doing there ? shawn : well , nothing good . you know , i ca n't quite figure it out , but for some reason , she is determined to sleep with the guy . there 's nothing i can do about it . [ scene_break ] mickey : [ sighs ] jordan : [ chuckles ] mickey : you 're still dressed ? jordan : well , i thought about taking off a couple of layers , but then i thought you might want to do that yourself . mickey : i might . jordan : you think ? mickey : yeah . i think that i wish we had gotten into business together a lot sooner .

[ coughs ] i do n't feel so good . kim : what the he -- cutter ! cutter : i guess i used too much . kim : you think ? oh , my god . he 's dead . you poisoned him ! cutter : okay . okay , go . go . i 'll get rid of the body before ralph gets back . kim : okay . are you sure ? cutter : yeah , of course . i 'm your brother . ca n't you trust me ? kim : i do trust my brother ... within reason . oh , but like i said , what choice do i have ? [ scene_break ] cutter : damn it , rama . my sister 's broke , okay ? what 's she supposed to do ? reverse her plastic surgery ? she ca n't afford to pay you . rama : then you will have to go to prison , okay ? cutter : damn it , rama ! just listen to me ! rama : ow ! you 're hurting me ! hey ! rama : [ breathing heavily ] got a problem here ? rama : no . everything 's just fine . right ? cutter : i 'm not gon na let you hold this over my head for the rest of my life . rama : no ? what you gon na do ? kill me ? [ scene_break ] nate : hey , hey , hey . look . your mom is the smartest person i 've ever met . she 's got to know what she 's doing . and if she 's not , uh , telling you stuff , it 's got to be to protect you . danielle : okay , i ... i guess , but i 'm not a baby . nate : no , you 're not . you are 18 ... almost . i know this is not gon na make you feel better about your mom or about any of that other stuff , but ... it might take your mind off it for a little while . [ scene_break ] todd : what did she say ? téa : rex balsom did n't do it , and neither did his son , shane . todd : his what , shane ? [ scene_break ] rex : that 's what you thought ? that i killed victor lord ? shane : well , i knew jack was lying about todd manning being the killer , so i figured someone else must have gone into the house after i brought jack to the hospital . rex : well , what made you think it was me ? shane : well , after i went to the hospital , i - i came straight home , put the gun in the safe , then went to bed . but i could n't sleep . that 's when i saw you come in tracking mud and all wet from the rain . rex : right . i told you i went to visit your mom 's grave . shane : i know ... only i thought you were lying . [ scene_break ] todd : okay , will you stop playing with the oatmeal and tell me what 's going on ? téa : before i say anything else , you need to understand that everyone is fine . todd : oh , boy . this -- this -- this sounds great . téa : last night , rex 's son , shane , pulled a gun on jack . todd : pulled a gun on jack ? is jack okay ? téa : i told you . jack is fine . todd : `` jack is fine `` ? someone tried to murder him ? some psycho pulls a gun on him and -- and -- tell me shane 's been arrested , right ? they have the gun ? téa : they have the gun . todd : did they found out if that 's the murder weapon ? because if rex did n't kill victor , then maybe his whack - job of a son did ! téa : the police ran ballistics on the gun , and it was not a match . rex and shane have both been cleared . todd : this is a mess . téa : look , the good news is that shane admitted that he was the one who hit jack the night of victor 's murder . todd : oh , shane knew all along it was n't me that hit jack over the head and he did n't say anything ? téa : no . but what we need to concentrate on is that the police are no longer buying jack 's story . apparently , shane took jack to the hospital right after he hit him , so jack was nowhere near the crime scene the night of victor 's murder . so jack 's eyewitness account no longer holds any water . todd : so , great . so the police have dropped all the charges against me , then . téa : not so fast . you still have very strong motive , no murder weapon has been found , and let 's not forget you 're a fugitive . the police believe the real murderer is out there ... and they think it could be you . [ scene_break ] rex : my god , all this time , you 've been thinking that i 'm a murderer . shane : well , yeah . all you ever talked about was getting even with victor and jack . i thought that we both had the same idea -- to kill them . i could n't go through with it , but ... i thought you did . [ scene_break ] kim : you look good , girl . more color in your cheeks today . oh , hey . i did n't tell you . you would not believe what i had to do to convince cutter that you 're you and not gigi . but , i mean , come on , that would be crazy , right ? you did n't even get to your sister that day . your snooty sister was dead in that basement already ... although her heart did save clint . but you survived , thank god . and as soon as you get out of here , we 'll get you looking like you used to look . we just have to get our half of rex 's money . it 's all good , stace . i promise . [ cell phone rings ] kim : well , if it is n't our friend echo disavoy . what does that battle axe want ? echo , what can i do for you ? echo : i 'm calling about that document . [ scene_break ] rama : well , cutter ? cutter : half ? kim : you heard me . take it or leave it . cutter : fine . agreed . no , i 'm not gon na kill you . i 've got an easier way to solve our little dilemma . rama : really ? how ? cutter : i 've got an idea that 's gon na kill a lot of birds with just one stone . [ scene_break ] kim : document ? oh , you mean that paper rex signed , giving it all back to clint . yeah , what about it ? echo : i want it back . now . kim : no way , lady . we had a deal , fair and square . i got the paper , and you got the gun . echo : yes , but you do n't understand . that gun -- it turns out it was n't the one used to kill victor lord jr. , so the deal 's off . [ scene_break ] téa : oh , and one more thing . todd : great . ca n't wait to hear more good news . téa : the mayor is pressuring the district attorney 's office to push for the max with starr unless you turn yourself in . todd : okay . téa : where you going ? todd : i got to turn myself in . no way i 'm gon na let starr get in trouble for helping me to escape . téa : no , no , no , no . hold on . you 're not going anywhere until i get some guarantees . todd : okay , look , delgado . uh , it 's not that i do n't appreciate all you 're doing to help me , but you need to understand -- téa : help you ? todd : yes . téa : help you ? i 'm not doing anything to help you . i 'm doing this to help my husband , victor . [ scene_break ] danielle : `` the manchurian candidate `` ? nate : uh - huh . it 's the original . danielle : yeah ? nate : uh , remember that fight that we had when you told me how much you liked the remake with meryl streep ? danielle : oh , yeah . nate : yeah , i - i told you i would watch the original with you so i could tell you why it is so , so much better . danielle : right . yeah , how could i forget ? thanks . nate : sure . um ... anyways , i - i should go . um , do you -- do you need a lift to school ? looks like you 're already late . danielle : no , actually . i 'm -- i 'm ... taking a mental - health day . i 'll probably just watch this instead . nate : okay . uh , well ... e - enjoy . danielle : wait . you want to watch this with me ? [ scene_break ] todd : i am very sorry about what happened to victor . téa : [ scoffs ] todd : but i need to turn myself in . téa : you 're not taking one step outside this cabin until i get some guarantees , guarantees from the police department and the district attorney 's office that they 're not gon na railroad you for a crime you did n't commit ! i can not have them wasting their time when they should be finding my husband 's real killer ! [ scene_break ] bo : i talked to nora . she will try to get starr arraigned as soon as possible . blair : oh , thank you so much , bo . bo : i - is there something you wanted to tell me ? blair : well , you know what ? actually , yes . there is . i want to know what you 're gon na do about shane morasco . that 's right . he threatened my son with a gun , and i want to know if you 're gon na charge him for it . [ scene_break ] shane : i 'm sorry , dad . [ voice breaking ] i never should have believed that you could have done that . rex : no , look . y - you have nothing to be sorry about , okay ? this is my fault . ever since your mom died , there 's been this distance between us because i have n't been there for you . shane : sure you have . rex : no , actually , i have n't . i 've been so obsessed with revenge , i have n't seen what you 've been going through . but that 's over , okay ? from now on , i 've got your back , and you 've got mine . anything happens , we help each other get through it , okay ? shane : okay . dad ? rex : yeah ? shane : am i gon na get in trouble because of what i did to jack ? [ scene_break ] bo : [ sighs ] so far , no charges have been filed against shane morasco . blair : of course not , because rex is n't just your good buddy anymore . he and shane are family . and we all know how the buchanans just love to stick together . is that right ? so you 're telling me that shane is just gon na get off scot free ? bo : no . what i 'm telling you , blair , is i think you should think long and hard before you force the issue and get shane arrested . blair : what is there to think about ? the boy could have killed my son , bo ! bo : i understand that , but if shane 's actions become a matter of record , then so will jack 's . and then he will have a few charges that he has to answer for , like making a false statement to law enforcement , obstruction of justice . is that what you want ? [ scene_break ] rex : i do n't know if you 're gon na get in trouble with what happened with jack , but if you do , we will face it together and honestly . shane : i already told the truth , so i guess we just wait . rex : shane , i do n't know if i can fix everything that 's broken , but i promise you that i will always listen and i wo n't judge . shane : mom used to be good at that . rex : i 'll never be as good as your mom . but i promise to give it my best shot . you know , revenge is n't the only thing that 's been coming between us . shane : what else was there ? rex : i 've been chasing a ghost . and if we 're gon na get through this , that has to stop , too . [ scene_break ] kim : ever hear of the expression `` buyer beware `` ? that means a deal 's a deal , so if you do n't like your half , you can suck it . echo : the only reason i wanted that gun back was because i thought my son used it to commit murder , but it turns out he 's innocent . kim : yeah ? well , mazel tov . but that 's not my problem . echo : you listen to me . you give me what i want or i swear i will track you down and take it back from you one way or another . kim : oooh . you 're scaring me . and you 're wasting my time because i do n't have the damn document anymore . echo : what are you talking about ? kim : i gave it to someone else . echo : what ? ! who ? ! kim : okay , i 'll tell you . i gave your precious document to -- oops . [ scene_break ] cutter : so , what 's it gon na be , rama ? you gon na call the police and make sure that we all end up with nothing , or are you gon na go with the far saner , more mutually satisfying plan that i just proposed ? [ scene_break ] kim : ugh ! can you believe the nerve of that echo ? i probably should n't tell you this , but ... looks like rex did n't kill anybody . i know , i know . you were right the whole time . but do n't get any ideas about mr . perfect 'cause as soon as you get out of here , i 'm not gon na let you try your crazy plan to win rex back . you and rex are through , capisce ? oh , my god . i got to get to work . stace , soon enough , no more spotted pony . we 'll be on easy street . [ scene_break ] téa : i 'm so sorry , victor . i thought we were on to something with rex . [ scoffs ] you and i both know how much he hated you . okay . so , if you did n't kill victor and neither did rex , i need to find out who really did . todd : so we 'll do that . we 'll figure it out . téa : you gon na stay here ? todd : delgado , you 've always been there for me . i 'm here for you . [ door closes ] [ scene_break ] bo : it 's not my place to say this , blair , but i think the best thing for jack might be if he forgets all about shane morasco and recants his statement about todd . blair : wo n't jack still get in trouble ? bo : he was hit in the head . he was confused , and he made a mistake . so i think that he could take back everything he said about todd and not suffer any consequences . blair : i just want to do right by my son to protect him . bo : and i understand that , blair . i really do , more than you could possibly know . [ scene_break ] nate : okay . you 're sure you want me to stick around and watch this with you ? i know i have n't been your favorite person lately . danielle : no , you have n't . but if you do n't stay , who 's going to explain to me why this version 's so much better ? [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] bo : yeah ? téa : may i come in ? bo : ms. delgado . right on schedule . this would n't have anything to do with todd manning , would it ? téa : todd is ready to turn himself in , but we are gon na need something in return .

[ scene_break ] rex : `` do n't give up . `` that 's what you told me , geeg . so shane and i are promising that we wo n't give up on each other . i guess i finally realized what you meant . we will never forget you , morasco . but we do have to let you go . | after finding out , for the first time , that shane knocked out jack and either he or rex could have killed him , tea and blair both hope the cops have exonerated todd for the murder but bo tells them there is still have no other suspect . echo then remembers she has not yet told rex she had to sign away everything back to clint for kim in exchange for the gun . she now realizes that rex 's gun was not used to kill victor in the first place and she and roxy have falsely assumed he did it . kim no longer has a valid claim to get rex to sign over clint 's money , yet she realizes it 's too late since she 's already signed it away by forging rex 's signature . at the private hospital , cutter reminds kim that he knows she may be responsible for the death of gigi , so he is able to prevent her from giving clint back his money . rama finds cutter and reminds him she knows he 's responsible for killing a customer along with kim years ago at the spotted pony . she threatens to go to the police if he does not tell her where to find his sister . the `` new `` stacy opens her eyes in the hospital bed . | <s>[INST] téa : no , dani . i 'm actually still at home . i 'm , uh , i 'm on my way to the police station to help tomás and starr . danielle : so you have n't left the house yet ? téa : uh , no , i 'm just on my way out the door . danielle : [ sighs ] so ... what about todd ? have you heard anything or ... téa : no . nothing . he 's still missing . listen , i got to run . um , but try not to worry , okay ? trust me ? [ click ] danielle : now , how am i supposed to trust you when not a single word you say is true ? todd : why did you just lie to our daughter ? téa : would you rather i make her an accessory , as well ? you already have one daughter in prison for abetting a murder . you want another one ? todd : murderer ... m - me ? am i even still a suspect ? did n't mcbain and bo take your advice ? téa : yes , they did take my advice . todd : great , so rex balsom has been arrested for the murder of victor . téa : no , he was brought to the police station last night and let go . todd : great . i 'm done for . téa : not necessarily . there has been a development ... with jack .

[ scene_break ] bo : let 's back up for just a second , blair . now , there are things that you do n't know about . blair : okay , well , why do n't you fill me in ? bo : shane was looking for a confession . he wanted jack to admit that he killed gigi . [ scene_break ] kim : i 'm sorry , stace . my stupid brother forced me to give him that paper that rex signed everything over to clint . what else could i do ? cutter did n't give me any choice . [ scene_break ] cutter : hello , beautiful . mwah . it 's gon na be a happy moment when i get clint to strike a deal and cash this puppy in . rama : in love again so soon ? cutter : hey , rama . you mind telling me why you dragged me all the way down to kentucky ? rama : is n't it obvious ? i thought i 'd bring us back to the scene of the crime . [ scene_break ] kim : you know how cutter can get , and he was threatening to go to the cops , so i had to give him that paper . but , hey , at least we 're gon na get half , which is only fair , because i was the one who got those two crazy broads to get rex to sign over everything to clint just so they could get their hands on that gun . [ scene_break ] echo : you 're grateful to me ? rex : you and roxy were trying to protect me , and i appreciate that . but what i do n't get if you guys thought that i killed victor lord with that gun , why did n't you just get rid of it ? echo : it 's ... complicated . rex : okay . try me .

[ scene_break ] todd : what 's going on with jack ? is he okay ? téa : yes . yes , he 's fine . um , blair showed up last night when you were asleep . basically , starr caught jack in a lie . apparently , he admitted to overhearing shaun tell starr victor 's last words . todd : so jack admitted that he lied ? téa : mm , not really . when starr confronted him , he denied having said that , and he challenged her to prove that he did . blair tried to get him to tell the truth , but he would n't tell her . todd : right . of course . i bet blair tried real hard . [ scene_break ] blair : well , even if , um , shane did get jack to confess , it would n't be admissible in court , right , because it was done at gunpoint ? bo : i think shane just wanted to hear jack say the words . blair : did jack confess ? bo : no . actually , shane confessed . the gun that he had last night -- it was the same one that he used to hit jack the night that victor was killed . blair : wait . wait , wait , wait . shane is the one that hit jack ? bo : that 's right . blair : oh , my god . well , he did n't kill victor , did he ? bo : no , no . we , uh , sent the gun to ballistics . it 's not the murder weapon . and even if shane had wanted to kill victor and -- and jack , he would n't have been able to do it . no , instead of shooting jack , he ended up taking him to the hospital because shane was worried about him . blair : wow . i -- does n't -- ca n't believe this . i -- but , wait a minute . if -- if -- if shane is the one that hit jack , then obviously todd did n't , so that 's -- that 's good news for todd , right ? [ scene_break ] rex : what was so complicated ? if you thought that i was guilty and you were trying to protect me ... right ? why did n't you and roxy just toss the gun in the llantano river ? echo : rex is n't a killer . kim : oh , so you guys just hid a murder weapon in a stuffed porcupine for kicks ? let 's deal . echo : what do you want ? kim : everything your little brat extorted for clint 's brand - new heart . echo : it 's a long story . so i -- i guess i 'd better start at the top . [ scene_break ] kim : my only regret , stace , is that i wo n't get to be the big hero . i was gon na wrap that paper up in a nice , big ribbon and present it to clint all ceremonial - like and then watch his face when he saw that rex signed it all back over to him -- the house , the horses , the company , the cash . but , hey , 50 % of cutter 's cut ai n't bad . and my brother always gets exactly what he wants , damn it . [ scene_break ] rama : i thought returning to the scene of the crime would be appropriate for many reasons . but we do n't have to get into that yet . cutter : what do you want , rama ? rama : tell me where the real aubrey wentworth is . cutter : [ mockingly ] i have n't seen her in years . rama : save it . the fake aubrey wentworth told me everything . i know that you 're in touch with your sister , aka kimberly andrews , aka the former and the most recent mrs. clint buchanan . cutter : [ normal voice ] really ? aubrey told you all that , huh ? rama : and now you 're gon na tell me where she is so i can get my money back from that surgically altered bitch . cutter : i wish i could help you . i just really do n't know where she is . rama : liar ! you 're making a big mistake , cutter . if you do n't tell me where she is , i will go to the anchorage police and tell them everything that i know about what happened right here at the spotted pony . you remember , do n't you ? it was the first time i came to anchorage , kentucky , trying to track down your sister ... and my money . aubrey wentworth -- or whatever you 're calling yourself now -- are -- are you here ? aubrey ! [ gasps ] tell me . have i sufficiently refreshed your memory on the whereabouts of your sister ? cutter : maybe i do know where kim is . rama : excellent . so , where would that be ? cutter : i ca n't tell you . come on , rama . i ca n't have you marching over there and confronting her -- at least not now . rama : then you must not remember the details of that night very clearly . wait , i know you . you 're -- you 're -- you 're cutter wentworth , aubrey wentworth 's brother , right ? what have you done ? cutter : get out now . rama : no , i came here to get the money that your ugly - duckling sister stole from me . she ran away with my money . cutter : i ca n't help you , all right ? you need to leave now and forget everything you just saw . rama : you committed a crime , cutter , and i have proof , remember ? so , do you want to reconsider telling me where i can find your sister ? [ scene_break ] kim : ugh . this sucks . i guess i 'm not the domestic type , but ... at least the color will look good on you . okay , even when you 're unconscious , i can hear you loud and clear . i know you 're not nuts about cutter , but he has to come through this time . he will . we need that money .

[ scene_break ] bo : shane confessed he hit jack , which disproves jack 's claim that it was todd that hit him , so ... yeah , this could be really good for todd -- if he was n't a fugitive ... and hiding out somewhere that only his most trusted friends would know about . blair : what are you getting at , bo ? [ scene_break ] téa : blair is doing everything she can to help you . todd : yeah . a lot of good that 's gon na do me . téa : she 's putting herself at great risk to hide you here . she ca n't hide behind attorney / client privilege the way i can . besides , if anyone can get the truth out of jack , it 's blair . todd : but what if she ca n't ? if the cops do n't go after balsom , i 'm up the creek with -- hell , i 'm the creek without a boat . [ scene_break ] bo : i 'm not getting at anything . i 'm just speculating on manning 's whereabouts . blair : i see . okay , well , what about starr and tomás ? what are -- what are you gon na do about them ? bo : tomás pled guilty , so there 's not really much we can do about that . blair : mm - hmm . bo : i could talk to , uh , nora , see if she could expedite , uh , starr 's arraignment . blair : [ sighs ] i would appreciate that . thank you . bo : [ sighs ] you know what ? it 's the mayor . she 's out for blood right now , and i 'm not sure that she would want starr released until manning 's in custody . blair : no , no , but she ca n't do that ! my daughter has rights ! she ca n't hold her as -- as bait ! that 's -- that 's wrong ! bo : i know . i understand that . [ sighs ] see , but that 's why if one of those trusted friends that i was talking about before , that friend could really help todd and -- and could really help starr , too , if that friend would just suggest that todd turn himself in . [ scene_break ] danielle : i 'm sorry . [ sighs ] nate : no , i - i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to upset you . danielle : no , you did n't . [ sniffles ] you -- it was n't [ sighs ] i 'm not crying because of t - the birthday present . that was really nice of you . it 's just that i 'm -- i 'm upset 'cause [ sniffles ] before you -- you gave me that present , i had n't even thought about my birthday . nate : what ? who forgets about their own birthday ? danielle : me ... and the rest of my family . nate : oh . danielle : [ voice breaking ] why would they remember ? my sister and my uncle are both in jail , my -- my father was just murdered , and my other father 's out there missing somewhere . nate : yeah , i - i know it 's crazy . danielle : and the worst part is , all my mom 's been doing is lying to me about everything ! i just got off the phone with her , and you know where she told me she was ? she said she was just leaving the house . nate : wait , why would she tell you that she was in the house when she was n't ? danielle : because i think she 's with my real father , todd . and i 'm scared . [ scene_break ] téa : i know things are difficult right now , but you ca n't lose hope . todd : you know me . ever hopeful . téa : well , what 's the alternative ? todd : i 'm not sure . i 'll tell you , though . hanging around here , staying under the radar , fearful to even go outside 'cause it may not be safe is starting to feel a lot like jail . téa : well , i guess that makes me your cell mate ... at least till blair comes back . you hungry ? [ scene_break ] blair : bo , i would really appreciate anything that you could do to help with starr 's arraignment . bo : all right . why do n't you -- why do n't you wait outside in the , uh , squad room ? and i want you to feel free to use any one of those phones out there to call anybody ... about anything . blair : okay .

[ scene_break ] rex : look , i hate that you had all this anger inside of you . why did n't you tell me ? shane : because a - after jack 's dad was killed , everything just got so crazy . how was i supposed to tell you what i did ? rex : but you wanted to . you tried telling me before . you tried talking to brody . shane : yeah , but i - i - i just could n't , okay ? rex : why not ? what were you afraid of ? i - i - it 's not like you killed victor lord . shane : no , but ... i thought you did . [ scene_break ] kim : do n't get mad at me for saying this , but i hope rex is enjoying his last few hours as a gazillionaire . okay . i 'm sorry . that was mean . but i do n't like rex balsom any more than you trust cutter . cutter : you 're bluffing . you 've been threatening to call the police on me for years , and you 've never done it , and you never will . listen . listen , the cops are already on their way , okay , and you do n't want to be here when they get here , all right ? something tells me your fiancé 's family would n't be too keen on you getting mixed up in a -- rama : my -- my fiancé ? how do you know -- cutter : aubrey told me all about it . your stupid little arranged marriage that 's supposed to save your broke family , but something tells me the deal will be off if you get involved with a stiff at a strip club . go ! rama : okay . okay , fine . i 'll go . but -- but you know what ? i wo n't forget this . and i 'll find that thieving sister of yours , and she 'll pay me back someday . and you know what ? just -- just to make sure ... [ camera shutter clicks ] cutter : what -- hey ! hey , give me that ! damn it . rama : i have no problem going to the police right now . my husband and his family will applaud me for doing the right thing . and by the way , i still have a souvenir from that night . i 'm sure the anchorage police will be more than pleased to finally solve the case of the murder at the spotted pony . [ scene_break ] kim : i understand why you have your doubts about cutter . it 's not like he has n't gotten me into trouble in the past . we were grifters , you know . we 'd target some rich guy , slip him a mickey , and then roll him . but then one night ... it all went straight to hell . wait . [ coughs ] i do n't feel so good . kim : what the he -- cutter ! cutter : i guess i used too much . kim : you think ? oh , my god . he 's dead . you poisoned him ! cutter : okay . okay , go . go . i 'll get rid of the body before ralph gets back . kim : okay . are you sure ? cutter : yeah , of course . i 'm your brother . ca n't you trust me ? kim : i do trust my brother ... within reason . oh , but like i said , what choice do i have ? [ scene_break ] cutter : damn it , rama . my sister 's broke , okay ? what 's she supposed to do ? reverse her plastic surgery ? she ca n't afford to pay you . rama : then you will have to go to prison , okay ? cutter : damn it , rama ! just listen to me ! rama : ow ! you 're hurting me ! hey ! rama : [ breathing heavily ] got a problem here ? rama : no . everything 's just fine . right ? cutter : i 'm not gon na let you hold this over my head for the rest of my life . rama : no ? what you gon na do ? kill me ? [ scene_break ] nate : hey , hey , hey . look . your mom is the smartest person i 've ever met . she 's got to know what she 's doing . and if she 's not , uh , telling you stuff , it 's got to be to protect you . danielle : okay , i ... i guess , but i 'm not a baby . nate : no , you 're not . you are 18 ... almost . i know this is not gon na make you feel better about your mom or about any of that other stuff , but ... it might take your mind off it for a little while . [ scene_break ] todd : what did she say ? téa : rex balsom did n't do it , and neither did his son , shane . todd : his what , shane ? [ scene_break ] rex : that 's what you thought ? that i killed victor lord ? shane : well , i knew jack was lying about todd manning being the killer , so i figured someone else must have gone into the house after i brought jack to the hospital . rex : well , what made you think it was me ? shane : well , after i went to the hospital , i - i came straight home , put the gun in the safe , then went to bed . but i could n't sleep . that 's when i saw you come in tracking mud and all wet from the rain . rex : right . i told you i went to visit your mom 's grave . shane : i know ... only i thought you were lying . [ scene_break ] todd : okay , will you stop playing with the oatmeal and tell me what 's going on ? téa : before i say anything else , you need to understand that everyone is fine . todd : oh , boy . this -- this -- this sounds great . téa : last night , rex 's son , shane , pulled a gun on jack . todd : pulled a gun on jack ? is jack okay ? téa : i told you . jack is fine . todd : `` jack is fine `` ? someone tried to murder him ? some psycho pulls a gun on him and -- and -- tell me shane 's been arrested , right ? they have the gun ? téa : they have the gun . todd : did they found out if that 's the murder weapon ? because if rex did n't kill victor , then maybe his whack - job of a son did ! téa : the police ran ballistics on the gun , and it was not a match . rex and shane have both been cleared . todd : this is a mess . téa : look , the good news is that shane admitted that he was the one who hit jack the night of victor 's murder . todd : oh , shane knew all along it was n't me that hit jack over the head and he did n't say anything ? téa : no . but what we need to concentrate on is that the police are no longer buying jack 's story . apparently , shane took jack to the hospital right after he hit him , so jack was nowhere near the crime scene the night of victor 's murder . so jack 's eyewitness account no longer holds any water . todd : so , great . so the police have dropped all the charges against me , then . téa : not so fast . you still have very strong motive , no murder weapon has been found , and let 's not forget you 're a fugitive . the police believe the real murderer is out there ... and they think it could be you . [ scene_break ] rex : my god , all this time , you 've been thinking that i 'm a murderer . shane : well , yeah . all you ever talked about was getting even with victor and jack . i thought that we both had the same idea -- to kill them . i could n't go through with it , but ... i thought you did . [ scene_break ] kim : you look good , girl . more color in your cheeks today . oh , hey . i did n't tell you . you would not believe what i had to do to convince cutter that you 're you and not gigi . but , i mean , come on , that would be crazy , right ? you did n't even get to your sister that day . your snooty sister was dead in that basement already ... although her heart did save clint . but you survived , thank god . and as soon as you get out of here , we 'll get you looking like you used to look . we just have to get our half of rex 's money . it 's all good , stace . i promise . [ cell phone rings ] kim : well , if it is n't our friend echo disavoy . what does that battle axe want ? echo , what can i do for you ? echo : i 'm calling about that document . [ scene_break ] rama : well , cutter ? cutter : half ? kim : you heard me . take it or leave it . cutter : fine . agreed . no , i 'm not gon na kill you . i 've got an easier way to solve our little dilemma . rama : really ? how ? cutter : i 've got an idea that 's gon na kill a lot of birds with just one stone . [ scene_break ] kim : document ? oh , you mean that paper rex signed , giving it all back to clint . yeah , what about it ? echo : i want it back . now . kim : no way , lady . we had a deal , fair and square . i got the paper , and you got the gun . echo : yes , but you do n't understand . that gun -- it turns out it was n't the one used to kill victor lord jr. , so the deal 's off . [ scene_break ] téa : oh , and one more thing . todd : great . ca n't wait to hear more good news . téa : the mayor is pressuring the district attorney 's office to push for the max with starr unless you turn yourself in . todd : okay . téa : where you going ? todd : i got to turn myself in . no way i 'm gon na let starr get in trouble for helping me to escape . téa : no , no , no , no . hold on . you 're not going anywhere until i get some guarantees . todd : okay , look , delgado . uh , it 's not that i do n't appreciate all you 're doing to help me , but you need to understand -- téa : help you ? todd : yes . téa : help you ? i 'm not doing anything to help you . i 'm doing this to help my husband , victor .

[ scene_break ] shane : i 'm sorry , dad . [ voice breaking ] i never should have believed that you could have done that . rex : no , look . y - you have nothing to be sorry about , okay ? this is my fault . ever since your mom died , there 's been this distance between us because i have n't been there for you . shane : sure you have . rex : no , actually , i have n't . i 've been so obsessed with revenge , i have n't seen what you 've been going through . but that 's over , okay ? from now on , i 've got your back , and you 've got mine . anything happens , we help each other get through it , okay ? shane : okay . dad ? rex : yeah ? shane : am i gon na get in trouble because of what i did to jack ? [ scene_break ] bo : [ sighs ] so far , no charges have been filed against shane morasco . blair : of course not , because rex is n't just your good buddy anymore . he and shane are family . and we all know how the buchanans just love to stick together . is that right ? so you 're telling me that shane is just gon na get off scot free ? bo : no . what i 'm telling you , blair , is i think you should think long and hard before you force the issue and get shane arrested . blair : what is there to think about ? the boy could have killed my son , bo ! bo : i understand that , but if shane 's actions become a matter of record , then so will jack 's . and then he will have a few charges that he has to answer for , like making a false statement to law enforcement , obstruction of justice . is that what you want ? [ scene_break ] rex : i do n't know if you 're gon na get in trouble with what happened with jack , but if you do , we will face it together and honestly . shane : i already told the truth , so i guess we just wait . rex : shane , i do n't know if i can fix everything that 's broken , but i promise you that i will always listen and i wo n't judge . shane : mom used to be good at that . rex : i 'll never be as good as your mom . but i promise to give it my best shot . you know , revenge is n't the only thing that 's been coming between us . shane : what else was there ? rex : i 've been chasing a ghost . and if we 're gon na get through this , that has to stop , too . [ scene_break ] kim : ever hear of the expression `` buyer beware `` ? that means a deal 's a deal , so if you do n't like your half , you can suck it . echo : the only reason i wanted that gun back was because i thought my son used it to commit murder , but it turns out he 's innocent . kim : yeah ? well , mazel tov . but that 's not my problem . echo : you listen to me . you give me what i want or i swear i will track you down and take it back from you one way or another . kim : oooh . you 're scaring me . and you 're wasting my time because i do n't have the damn document anymore . echo : what are you talking about ? kim : i gave it to someone else . echo : what ? ! who ? ! kim : okay , i 'll tell you . i gave your precious document to -- oops . [ scene_break ] cutter : so , what 's it gon na be , rama ? you gon na call the police and make sure that we all end up with nothing , or are you gon na go with the far saner , more mutually satisfying plan that i just proposed ? [ scene_break ] kim : ugh ! can you believe the nerve of that echo ? i probably should n't tell you this , but ... looks like rex did n't kill anybody . i know , i know . you were right the whole time . but do n't get any ideas about mr . perfect 'cause as soon as you get out of here , i 'm not gon na let you try your crazy plan to win rex back . you and rex are through , capisce ? oh , my god . i got to get to work . stace , soon enough , no more spotted pony . we 'll be on easy street .

[ door closes ] [ scene_break ] bo : it 's not my place to say this , blair , but i think the best thing for jack might be if he forgets all about shane morasco and recants his statement about todd . blair : wo n't jack still get in trouble ? bo : he was hit in the head . he was confused , and he made a mistake . so i think that he could take back everything he said about todd and not suffer any consequences . blair : i just want to do right by my son to protect him . bo : and i understand that , blair . i really do , more than you could possibly know . [ scene_break ] nate : okay . you 're sure you want me to stick around and watch this with you ? i know i have n't been your favorite person lately . danielle : no , you have n't . but if you do n't stay , who 's going to explain to me why this version 's so much better ?

[ scene_break ] tyler : i think i want noah to be my best man . leslie : and that 's a problem because -- why ? tyler : well , because i figured you might want me to ask your husband , even though i 've never met this mysterious dr. shelby . leslie : well , barton is meeting me here , so you can scratch that off your list of things to hassle me about . and as far as him being in your wedding -- abby : ohh ! i know things can go wrong in a marriage , but the divorce rate in this country is ridiculous . it 's even higher in my own family . that is not an option for us . we 're never gon na consider it . we 're not even going to think about it . tyler : babe , what 's wrong ? abby : my family is insane . tyler : okay . what does that have to do with us talking about divorce before we even get married ? abby : it 's everyone 's solution when there 's a problem . it 's like people expect marriages to break up . tyler : what people ? abby : my dad , for one . can you believe he had is lawyer draw up a prenuptial agreement for us ? tyler : well , you can tell him not to bother . abby : i did . tyler : good , 'cause i already had leslie draw one up .

[ scene_break ] dylan : you 're asking the wrong guy for relationship advice . victoria : but ben is your friend . dylan : yeah , he is my friend . so is billy . victoria : i 'm not asking you to take sides . dylan : all i can tell you is that when three people are involved , somebody always gets hurt . victoria : yeah , but ben and i are n't involved . i mean , we 're just two friends trying to , you know , get to know each other ... or not . dylan : what does that mean ? victoria : it just means that i do n't know much about him , other than that he was a medic in afghanistan and now he 's a doctor and that he 's divorced and he has a son . dylan : that 's not enough ? victoria : no . i want to know more , like -- i do n't know . i do n't know anything about his childhood . i have no idea where he grew up . i do n't know why he wanted to become a doctor , where he went to school . i have no idea why his marriage fell apart . dylan : why do n't you ask him ? victoria : i have asked him , and he just avoids the question . so , that 's why i 'm asking you . you know him pretty well . what can you tell me about ben ? [ scene_break ] billy : it 's a simple question , stitch . what is it that you have to live with for the rest of your life ? stitch : i do n't owe you any explanations , billy . billy : what about you , kelly ? do you owe me anything ? kelly : i think this is between you and ben .

[ scene_break ] stitch : i know -- victoria 's still married . billy : yes , because she loves me . and if i had doubts about that , i do n't after the way that she kissed me last night . oh , you did n't hear about that ? stitch : yeah . she told me . billy : yeah , well , there 's a lot you do n't know about me and victoria . okay ? this is n't the first time i screwed up , and odds are i 'll do it again . but in spite of my seemingly endless capacity for making the wrong decision , she and i have always gotten back together . victoria found me in the gutter , literally , and she was always able to see past the flaws that were staring her right in the face . she looked past my drunk eyes , and she saw me and i saw her , and at that moment , we made a connection . and nothing -- not my drinking , not my gambling , not even my overwhelming stupidity -- will ever break that connection , because that is a love that will never die . stitch : keep telling yourself that . billy : no . you see , stitch , i do n't need to tell myself that because i feel it , and she does , too . so , you can lift as many weights as you want . you can pour on the charm . you can play doctor to try and mend her broken heart . but you will never be anything to her but a distraction . vicki and i will get through this , like we always have . stitch : you done ? billy : no . you know , i 'm not . one last thing -- i told victoria i would give her space , but i am not gon na let you hurt her . i promise you i will find out what you are hiding .

[ clears throat ] i 've given it some thought . phyllis is a part of your life . she 's a big part of your past . you guys have a daughter together , and you share a powerful love . it is so powerful , it transcends what happened to her . you still love her , and that 's okay . i would n't expect anything different . in fact , it 's one of the things that i most admire about you -- is your loyalty . and here phyllis is in a clinic thousands of miles away , and your loyalty and devotion to her have never faltered . and i do n't want you to feel like that has to change . i understand what phyllis means to you . i do n't want you to be afraid to talk about her or your feelings for her .

[ scene_break ] abby : you know , when leslie said , `` get a room , `` i do n't think she meant that literally . tyler : yeah , but it was a good idea . abby : we can always go back to my place , you know . tyler : we could , but your place does n't have magic fingers . abby : oh , but what do you call these ? tyler : [ gasps ] ohh . okay . you know what ? i 'm gon na go get us some ice , 'cause i got a feeling i 'm gon na need to cool down later . abby : all right . well , hurry back . i 'm wearing that little lacy thing you like underneath this . tyler : i 'll be right back -- with extra ice .

[ scene_break ] jack : well , i bet you 're sorry now you insisted on talking about phyllis . kelly : no , no . but if you do n't want to talk about her anymore , that 's okay . jack : people always thought i called her `` red `` because of her red hair . and that was part of it , but she had this fiery temper . zero to 60 -- red - hot . anybody who crossed her knew all about it . kelly : including you ? jack : including me , more than a few times . she had this tough exterior . but underneath , she was scared , afraid she did n't measure up as mother or as a sister or as a partner . when she let you in , though , it was the most amazing feeling . kelly : i wish i 'd known her . jack : she would have taken your head off . [ chuckles ] kelly : [ chuckling ] why ? did she have something against blondes ? jack : oh , she had something against anybody that showed any interest in her man . kelly : well , maybe you and i -- jack : that was the phyllis that used to be . it 's not the same now . now , her body 's in a clinic in georgia , and her passion , her heart , all the fire and vulnerability , all the things that made phyllis -- they 're gone . kelly : oh , jack . jack : you were right . phyllis is a part of my life . she always will be . but she ca n't be with me , and i ca n't be with her . [ scene_break ] billy : hey ! chloe ! chloe : hey . billy : you here to see jack ? chloe : i came to see you . billy : oh , okay . what 's up ? chloe : i was just thinking ... about what we were discussing earlier , when we went to visit delia 's grave , about how nothing 's been the same since -- billy : yeah , since she died . yeah , i 've been thinking about that , too -- you know , wishing we had a time machine to bring back our sweet little girl and make everything right again . chloe : you do n't know how many times i 've wished that . billy : infinity times a million ? chloe : plus one .

[ door opens ] brody : what are you doing ? jessica : bo 's holding a press conference this morning . hopefully by the time you get to the station , someone will call in with -- brody : ah ah . you got to try not to obsess about all this . jessica : i know , i know , but my cousins have been kidnapped by someone who 's already -- brody : hey , hey . he is not gon na hurt them . they 're his only leverage . and today is all about one thing : finding those girls and bringing them home . [ scene_break ] reporter : do you have a probable location for where the young women are being held ? second reporter : the kidnapper has multiple priors , including felony murder . why was n't he prosecuted , commissioner ? third reporter : is lieutenant john mcbain going to provide any details on the investigation ? bo : excuse me . if you would give me a chance , i would like to read this prepared statement . first of all , i want to thank you all for coming . as most of you know , the lpd is seeking this man -- elijah clarke -- who kidnapped danielle rayburn , 16 ; starr manning , 18 ; and her daughter hope , 23 months . clarke was last seen approximately 12 hours ago driving a late model red sedan out of the parking lot at cherryvale clinic in cherryvale , pennsylvania . it is presumed that all 3 of the victims were in the car at that time . lieutenant john mcbain of the lpd gave chase , but currently , we do not know the location of the vehicle or of the 3 girls . kelly : many of you have been here all night working the phones . todd thanks you for that . i thank you for that . together we can be a valuable partner with law enforcement , so keep your eyes and your ears open , and let 's bring these girls home . bo : lieutenant mcbain remains in the field working around the clock . he 's committed to pursuing any verifiable lead that comes in on our hotline . i would also like to thank my assistant inez salinger , who stayed up all last night organizing volunteers to distribute these fliers . undoubtedly the kidnapper will reach out to todd manning to negotiate the girls ' release , but we hope to apprehend elijah clarke before that . [ scene_break ] marty : hannah , thank god . i 've been calling all over town . hannah : oh , i 'm so sorry . i should have left a note . marty : eli clarke has my granddaughter and starr . i thought he 'd gotten to you , too .

[ scene_break ] rex : well , i 've been worried about you , but judging by that speech , you 're handling this like a champ . kelly : yeah . you know , i 'm just trying to do what i need to do for todd and for [ scene_break ] dorian : echo disavoy ! la salope de llanview . that 's french for `` slut . `` echo 's voice : dorian , i had no intention of engineering a breakup of clint and viki 's marriage . clint seduced me . now , i know there are ugly rumors going around town contrary to that , but -- dorian 's voice : well , actually , to tell you the truth , i never thought that viki was capable of controlling clint 's cowboy urges . echo : you wound me , dorian . i thought we were friends . dorian : ha ha ha ! you 're too smart a cookie to think we were ever friends . in fact , it would be delusional . echo : oh , come on . we go way back , you and me . after all , we almost put clint buchanan in prison for life . dorian : i was doing my civic duty , and i continue to do that to this day . in fact , did you know i 'm the mayor of this town now ? yes , i am , and i have a lot better things to do than take a stroll down memory lane with you . echo : yes , i know . two of these girls are your family , are n't they ? dorian : yes , my grandniece and her daughter . echo : well , my heart goes out to all of you . dorian : that would come in handy , if only you had a heart . thank you for your concern . [ scene_break ] clint : even though you told me that she was in town , i truly did n't expect to run into her . viki : what do you want to bet she arranged it ? honestly , clint , i never thought that woman echo would have the nerve to show up here again . clint : she was never short on nerve . anyway , i put a p.i . on her . viki : you did ? so did i . clint : you did ? who ? viki : rex balsom . of course , that was before i heard about the kidnapping , so quite frankly , echo is the least of my worries right now . clint : yeah , i hear you , but rex is good , so just let me know what he finds out , will you ? viki : yeah , okay . clint : if this is for jessie , why do n't you let me take it up ? viki : i would , but she said she had something to talk to me about . i do n't know , maybe it 's a mother / daughter thing . clint : oh , i do n't know . i mean , she called me last night and said she wanted me to stop by , so maybe she wants to talk to her daddy , too . viki : okay . [ scene_break ] brody : last night when i was searching for starr and dani and hope , all i could think about was how lucky we are to be having a kid , and even if ford is the father , this baby is a part of you , jess , like bree is a part of you , and we both know how much i love her . so it 's all good . [ scene_break ] cole : putting yourself on the line is one thing , but you had to drag starr into it . james : that was n't part of the plan . cole : she 's dani 's sister . you knew she 'd be there . james : i did n't want her to get hurt . cole : yeah , that 's what you said before when you practically got her killed . but it 's not just her this time , is it ? it 's my daughter . you put my baby girl in the hands of a killer , all because you want to get back in starr 's life . james : i 'm sorry . cole , i 'm sorry . [ scene_break ] hannah : i could n't just do nothing . i 've been passing out fliers most of the night . marty : with cole ? hannah : he was there ? we must have been in different groups . i did n't see him . marty : but how did you get those scratches ? hannah : um , they gave us flashlights , but the batteries in mine were n't working , and i tripped into some bushes . i 'm fine , though . marty : i 'll get you some antiseptic . hannah : no . i 'll do it later . marty : you do n't want those cuts to get infected . hannah : it 's nothing compared to what starr and hope are going through . marty : you know exactly how they feel , do n't you ? i mean , eli tried to kill you . hannah : he did kill your baby . marty : he ca n't get my grandchild . he ca n't . [ scene_break ] cole : i could lose two people who mean more to me than anything in this world , and all you can say is you 're sorry ? why do n't you go to hell ? woman : oh , my gosh ! man : what 's going on ? [ scene_break ] hannah : you do n't have to drink this . i just wanted to do something . marty : thank you . that 's very kind . hannah : you 're thanking me . marty : why would n't i ? hannah : because i 'm the one who owes you for getting me out of the hospital and bringing me here after all of the lies that i told . marty : the lies that eli clarke forced you to tell . hannah : i ca n't blame it all on him . there 's a part of me that wanted cole for myself . i came between him and starr , and now ... marty : now what ? hannah : i 'm the reason that hope and starr are missing . [ scene_break ] bo : break it up ! james : i 'm sorry ! i never should have gotten starr involved . cole : you broke the law . you put starr in the middle of it , and it was n't your job to rescue dani . nate : you got the wrong brother , okay ? james only did it because i asked him to . you want to blame somebody , blame me .

[ scene_break ] dorian : echo , sometimes things do change , and now i have nothing but respect for viki . echo : really ? how 's your respect for clint buchanan these days ? because i seem to remember you accusing him of murdering me . dorian : obviously i was wrong because here you are , still the same conniving schemer you always were . echo : oh , honey , after what you did to chuckles , you could give me a run for my money any day of the week . dorian : chuckles ? echo : charlie banks . i heard all about what you did to him -- how you tried to force liquor down his throat , even knowing what it could do to him . of course , that was after all that unpleasantness with clint , when you took his company right after he dumped you . dorian : i do n't know where you 're getting your information from . echo : do n't get me wrong . my hat is off to you . after all , great minds ... dorian : the day my mind resembles yours , i 'll check myself into a mental hospital . [ scene_break ] kelly : how did clint beat the rap ? rex : echo faked her own death , and when they were about to throw the book at clint , she was alive and well , reading all about it in the newspapers . kelly : poor clint . clint 's voice : you saw what you came to see , and that is it . it would be very unwise to share this with kelly or anybody else . rex 's voice : if i did n't know any better , i 'd say you were threatening me , clint . rex : `` poor clint `` ? no . do not even think about feeling sorry for that s.o.b . [ scene_break ] echo : did you really cheat on clint with that vickers guy ? because just between us , mm mm mm . yummy . such a shame he left you at the altar . dorian : how dare you ! there has been a kidnapping . for goodness sakes , you 're wasting my time ! and what are you doing here anyway , hmm ? [ scene_break ] jessica : it happened the night of prom , and we all know how messed up i was back then . i was stuck in the past , obsessed with cristian . and ... i had watched him propose to layla , and i ended up crying in someone else 's arms . viki : honey , go on . jessica : it was ... one thing led to another . i just let it happen , you know ? clint : no , jess . some guy who should have known better let it happen . who is he ? jessica : it does n't matter now . clint : the hell it does n't ! you were not yourself that night . you were vulnerable . what kind of scum takes advantage of that ?

[ scene_break ] marty : how can what happened to the girls be your fault ? hannah : i 'm so sorry . marty : for what ? hannah : when cole was here and you told us that eli was still alive , i was terrified to be by myself , and cole stayed here , but he should have gone home . marty : hannah ... hannah : no . if cole was with starr and hope , like he should have been , they would n't be in danger right now .

[ scene_break ] viki : listen , i 've heard a lot about robert ford and it 's all bad . you 're not the first woman he 's preyed on . clint : somewhere along the line , somebody should have stopped him . i guess that 's my job now . jessica : dad , look , i just -- i just want to move on from this . clint : move on ? he forced himself on you ! the son of a bitch is lucky i 'm not gon na kill him ! viki : clint , would you please not go there ? jessica : he did n't force himself on me . really . viki : oh , darling , come on . that 's a technicality . as your father said , you were not in your right mind . you thought you were 17 years old . now , robert ford must have known that , right ? clint : he knew it , and he just did n't care . he used you , and there is no defense for that . jessica : i came to him . okay ? he reacted in the moment . it was just ... it was one night , one terrible night , and the chances that i got pregnant at that exact moment are next to nothing , so please , let 's just remember that this baby probably is n't ford 's . and even if it is , he does n't want it .

[ scene_break ] viki : listen , i 've heard a lot about robert ford and it 's all bad . you 're not the first woman he 's preyed on . clint : somewhere along the line , somebody should have stopped him . i guess that 's my job now . jessica : dad , look , i just -- i just want to move on from this . clint : move on ? he forced himself on you ! the son of a bitch is lucky i 'm not gon na kill him ! viki : clint , would you please not go there ? jessica : he did n't force himself on me . really . viki : oh , darling , come on . that 's a technicality . as your father said , you were not in your right mind . you thought you were 17 years old . now , robert ford must have known that , right ? clint : he knew it , and he just did n't care . he used you , and there is no defense for that . jessica : i came to him . okay ? he reacted in the moment . it was just ... it was one night , one terrible night , and the chances that i got pregnant at that exact moment are next to nothing , so please , let 's just remember that this baby probably is n't ford 's . and even if it is , he does n't want it . [ scene_break ] ford : i heard that jessica 's doctor put her on bed rest . i ca n't ask if she and the baby are okay ? brody : we had an agreement . you 're not supposed to care about the baby . ford : i guess i feel a little different now . brody : why ? what 's changed ? ford : this . a baby girl is missing . and that puts things in a whole new light . [ scene_break ] langston : how can you be so nice to me , after everything i did to you ? markko : i think we can forget about that right now . our friends need us . i 'm going to go see cole and i want you to come with me .

[ scene_break ] clint : jessie , i hate that you have to go through this . jessica : it 's worse for brody , but he 's been so wonderful . viki : well , thank god for that . and that 's good , honey , because i 'm sure he knows that no matter who the father is , we 're going to love this baby with everything we have . jessica : that 's what he keeps on saying . clint : i 'm going to head out . i will check back in with you later , though . jessica , i love you . viki : clint -- clint ... god knows i 'm not defending robert ford , but i 'm begging you , do n't do anything foolish because that will only make matters worse . clint : i 'm not going to make anything worse . jessica : am i wrong , or is he headed straight to robert ford ? [ scene_break ] brody : do n't get sentimental . you have no rights here . you gave those up a long time ago . ford : i 'm not staking any claims , i 'm just concerned about what might -- brody : you do n't get to be concerned . this is jessica 's baby , not yours . so put it out of your mind , permanently . [ scene_break ] dorian : you know , i could have you arrested . you 're trespassing . and how did you ever get the gall to set foot in llanview again ? echo : i did n't have the gall -- not until now . i have n't set eyes on this place since clint 's trial . [ scene_break ] rex : echo cut a deal with the prosecution . she promised to stay out of town . but less than a year later ... kelly : what 's that ? rex : it 's a speeding ticket issued by the l.p.d . whatever brought her back here made her do it in a hurry . [ scene_break ] dorian : get out . echo : oh , just relax . i 'm only here to visit my old boyfriend . dorian : ugh ... clint ? echo : chuckles . dorian : `` chuckles `` ? echo : charlie -- charlie banks .

[ scene_break ] viki : when can you have the paternity test ? jessica : soon . but i do n't know if ... viki : oh , honey -- honey , honey ... not knowing is going to be eating you up , you and brody . sweetheart , you and i both know what it is to live in denial -- what that can do , okay ? please , have the paternity test as soon as possible . jessica : and if the baby turns out to be ford 's ? viki : well , then it turns out to be ford 's , but at least you will know it , you can accept it , and you can move on . honey , we 've already established that brody 's going to love the baby , no matter the d.n.a . jessica : like he loves bree . viki : yes . and the way your father loves kevin and joey and you . find out the truth , okay ? after that , everything will fall into place . [ scene_break ] ford : i just wanted to tell you that i appreciate what you did . i did n't think it was possible to get my job back . clint : helps to have friends . ford : yeah , well , thank you . i wo n't forget it . clint : i was just telling myself that , because there are some things you just never forget . ford : yeah . well , thanks , anyway .

[ scene_break ] rex : okay , i can come back another time . viki : no , no , no . it 's fine . if you 're here , it must mean you found out something , right ? and that in itself would be better news than anything else i 've heard today . rex : okay . so it turns out ms. disavoy wants everybody to think that this is her first trip back to llanview since the trial . viki : and it 's not ? rex : no . after her ... fling with charlie , she came back . she was here a little less than a year after she left . [ scene_break ] dorian : you thought viki would give you a job , after what you did to her ? you are delusional . echo : well , maybe . but i 'm also very good . i could take a photograph of you and publish it that would have this whole town weeping . they 'd be more than ready to tear that kidnapper apart with their bare hands . dorian : you would exploit the carcass of my grief ? you vulture ! get out of my house ! echo : you 've got the wrong idea about me . dorian : get -- get out of my house ! get out of my life ! i do n't need to have an idea about you , girl . i 've got your number !

[ scene_break ] paul : i did nothing to hamper your investigation . jordan : you cremated a body . paul : as a budgetary consideration . once the medical examiner had completed his report , i made the decision to dispose of the body . jordan : oh . you know , it was n't your decision to make . not only was the body still evidence , but what about rivera 's family ? did you even make an effort to contact them ? paul : several . it was a judgment call . the me had -- had already filed his paperwork . we do n't have the body , but we have the autopsy report . now , if there was anything in mr. rivera 's remains that can tell us who killed him ... it 's right there . [ scene_break ] donald : carlos rivera 's autopsy report is part of an ongoing investigation . i 'm not supposed to give out information . anna : yes , i understand that , and i hate putting you on the spot like this , but i would take it as a personal favor . donald : commissioner -- i mean , ms. devane -- anna : do you understand how difficult it was for me when duke died ? donald : [ sighs ] i 'm so sorry for your loss . i heard you took him back to scotland . anna : yeah , i did . this is n't gon na be over for me until i can understand what happened to his killer . i have the utmost respect for you and the way you do your job , but if there 's any way at all that you can help me , i would greatly appreciate it . donald : let me see what i can do . anna : thank you . [ scene_break ] michael : we need to figure out who was behind the move against you . now , all signs point to the jeromes , but we ca n't be 100 % sure . sonny : every time i hear you say `` we `` or `` us `` or `` our business , `` you know what i think about ? you in that coma center or in court or going to pentonville . i do n't want to go through that again -- with you or any of my kids . you want me to get better ? you want me to worry less ? stay away from my business .

[ scene_break ] carly : you know , the only way to truly be happy is decide what you want and go for it . maybe you 'll get it , maybe you wo n't , but at least you wo n't be sitting around regretting the chances you did n't take or wishing for what might 've been . jason : you know , if i did n't know better , i would think that you 're telling me that i should marry elizabeth . carly : i 'm telling you to trust yourself . whatever you decide , i 'm on your side . jason : well , you talk a big game . can you back it up ? carly : now , that sounds like a challenge .

[ scene_break ] patrick : ah , well , you 're -- you 're right . that 's a -- that 's a big favor . elizabeth : i know this is last - minute , but you 're my closest friend , and you 're such a huge part of my life . what do you say ? patrick : i would be honored . it would be privilege to stand up for you at your wedding . kidding me ? elizabeth : oh , you have no idea what this means to me . patrick : yeah , you know , call me your man of honor , your best person , or just the guy that 's always gon na have your back . whatever it is , i 'm there for you . [ scene_break ] carly : you want me to stand up for you at your wedding ? jason : yes , i do . carly : even though i 've expressed my doubts about you and elizabeth on numerous occasions ? jason : ever since i met you , i like you . every instinct i 've had about you turned out to be right . and you 're a good person . you are -- you are . even when you think you 're not . you 're actually one of the best . and i have no idea why you insisted on being my friend . it freaked me out in the beginning , i have to admit . carly : [ laughs ] jason : but i am so lucky that you did . and it would mean the world to me if my best friend would stand up with me on the biggest day of my life . so , i do n't know , what do you say ? can you do it ? carly : i say yes !

[ scene_break ] spinelli : anthropologists and forensic scientists have been able to re - create faces using computers to analyze fossilized skulls and teeth , but my program takes the concept to a whole new level , okay ? by using jake 's x - rays , mri scans , and detailed medical records , we are gon na be able to create a likeness of jake 's pre - accident face . sam : uh , do you really think that 's gon na work ? spinelli : [ stammers ] i will admit , the software is new and , dare i say , imperfect . but , i mean , even an inexact likeness is better than no likeness . sam : okay , wait a minute . so you 're telling me that we have to recognize the likeness ? spinelli , what are the odds of that ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : jake just texted me . he 's waiting downstairs . can you help me with all those gifts ? felix : oh , no . this is a full - service bridal shower . we 'll organize the gifts . epiphany : what ?

[ scene_break ] man : excuse me , dr. obrecht . dr. obrecht : what ? man : we 've got a problem . dr. obrecht : is it minor , major ? how many times must i tell you to be specific ? man : there 's been a security breach . someone hacked into the hospital 's network . [ scene_break ] sabrina : [ sighs ] i missed it . felix : you did , but i saved you some cake . sabrina : [ sighs ] did elizabeth have fun ? felix : she sure did . where were you ? sabrina : i picked up carlos ' ashes this morning . felix : aw , bri , i 'm so sorry . are you okay ? sabrina : no . but i did what i had to do . felix : now , i know that was hard , but probably not as hard as keeping michael 's baby secret . sabrina : i told michael about the baby . felix : and ? sabrina : and he was really happy . felix : wait . so , if michael 's happy , why are n't you ? sabrina : i just -- i really do n't feel like -- felix : look , look , i know you still have issues because of what happened with gabriel , but there 's something else going on . sabrina : look , felix , please , just drop it , okay ? felix : do n't you know by now you can trust me ? sabrina : of course . felix : so tell me . are you carrying michael 's baby or someone else 's ? someone like carlos . michael : hey , thought i 'd find you here . felix : hello , michael . sabrina : hey . michael : hey . sabrina : uh , felix was just telling me about the shower . michael : oh , right . um , uh , i need your help with something now . can i steal you ? felix : uh , she 's all yours . michael : all right . thank you . [ scene_break ] jordan : you can tell dr. obrecht that i 'm sending over our team right now . yes , i understand she wants to handle this investigation , but this is a criminal matter . paul : trouble at general hospital ? jordan : you will find out as soon as i present you with a case . until then , do n't worry about it . paul : my intention is to have a good working relationship with you , and , uh , i assure you that i will do nothing in the future to usurp your authority . jordan : you 're still not really getting it . this is n't about you making unilateral decisions or stepping on my toes or -- paul : i know . it 's about the case . and based on this report ... i am positive that it wo n't suffer . jordan : i hope you 're right . [ scene_break ] donald : just remember , you did n't get this from me . anna : where are the photos ? donald : the me must have them . the written report should tell you everything you need to know . anna : okay . i ca n't thank you enough . donald : i hope you find what you 're looking for . anna : well , that 's not right . that 's impossible . god , i 've never meant these words before so much . go to hell ! [ four gunshots ] [ body thuds ] anna : i shot carlos four times . it says here he was hit twice . either this was falsified ... or the body was n't carlos at all .

[ scene_break ] epiphany : you know , it was nice of you to show up today , drake jr . patrick : i know i got a little bit of a later start than i expected , but i gave sam a ring today . epiphany : it is about damn time . patrick : i wanted to do it right . epiphany : well , you better not show up late to the shower i throw you . patrick : no showers . epiphany : uh , you 're next drake jr . patrick : epiphany ... epiphany : la - la - la - la ! ca n't hear you ! patrick : no showers . epiphany : la - la - la ! la - la - la - la ! [ scene_break ] spinelli : you are correct . there is the question of what happens if we do n't recognize the face that we create for jake . sam : what is your solution ? spinelli : once the reverse engineering is done , we run the image through facial recognition software linked to the dmv database . it will look for any possible matches . sam : okay , well , that means that jake would 've had to have had a new york license . spinelli : it 's a starting point . [ scene_break ] jason : ma'am . elizabeth : we 're home . everything go okay ? laura : uh ... no , actually . we had a little bit of an incident . um , you know what ? i have to get going home , but maybe you could step outside with me on the porch , so that we could just talk for a minute ? elizabeth : yeah . yeah , of course . laura : okay , great . bye - bye , little jake . jake : bye , grandma . jason : see you guys in a minute . whoosh ! [ grunts ] hey , buddy . what are you doing there ? jake : coloring . jason : oh , yeah ? staying in the lines ? hey , uh ... got to ask you a question . what happened earlier ? [ scene_break ] spinelli : once i work through the logistics of all the programs , i think we 'll solve our mystery . sam : jake 's gon na finally know who he is ? [ knock on door ] sam : commissioner . jordan : hi . sam : uh , what can i do for you ? jordan : i 'm looking for your associate , damian spinelli . sam : spinelli ? i 'm -- i 'm sorry . is there a problem ? jordan : is damian spinelli on the premises ? spinelli : um , ' tis is . may i be of service ? jordan : mr. spinelli , place your hands behind your back . sam : i 'm -- i 'm sorry . this must be some sort of mistake . jordan : there 's no mistake . you 're under arrest . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i told cam to be careful with that mask . laura : i think he just wanted to play with his brother , but i do think he 's all right . it 's little jake that i 'm worried about . i think it 's pretty obvious that he 's having a hard time adjusting to living here with the family . elizabeth : okay . okay . thank you for letting me know , but i 'll handle it . laura : okay . okay . come on , hon . i 'll see you later . elizabeth : all right . thanks . laura : mm - hmm . elizabeth : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] jason : okay , i get it . you know , if you do n't want to tell me what happened , it 's okay . but can -- can i borrow this for a second ? i need you to hear me . i 'm always gon na be here for you . jake : no , you 're not . you went away this morning . jason : okay , hey , man , we talked about that . i dropped your mother off at her surprise party . i came right back . jake : please do n't go away again , daddy . jason : daddy ? i like that . i do like that . i can not wait to be your stepdad as soon as i marry your mother . laura : i just wish he could know that . i wish -- elizabeth : little jake does n't care about jason 's previous life . and you know what ? neither do i. jake is little jake 's father , and i am his mother , and we are giving our son everything he needs . jake : but you are my real daddy . i know it . [ next_on ] diane ( to sam ) : what the hell happened ? lulu ( with dante ) : we 're here to get pregnant . sonny ( to michael ) : if sabrina 's pregnant , you got ta marry her . sabrina ( to carly ) : i know that when you woke up this morning , you were n't expecting news like this . spinelli : it 's vital that we uncover jake doe 's true identity . jake ( to jason ) : you 're my father ! | elizabeth is ready to marry jake and wants patrick to stand up at her wedding . jake tells carly he wants her to do the same . meanwhile , sonny is still in his hospital room urging michael not to put himself in danger . michael assures his father everything will be ok and that there will be a `` new addition `` to their family . meanwhile , sabrina is having reservations about having a baby and does not reveal whether the baby is actually michael 's or carlos ' . she goes to find out that da hornsby has had her former fiancé cremated without making any effort to contact his family or find out anything about the cause of death . jordan discovers the same thing and knows the new da is clearly hindering her investigation and may have a good reason not to have anyone find out the truth of how carlos got killed or who killed him . meanwhile , anna knows she needs to cover her tracks so she goes to the morgue to find out the status of carlos . nobody suspects her while she persuades an attendant to let her see the remains and autopsy report . yet she notices that carlos ' body and murder investigation was either falsified or got switched with that of someone else . nobody except paul knows that sloane is dead and paul murdered him . spinelli is determined to not give up in finding out who jake really is . however , while he 's with sam working on the computer , obrecht at the it staff find out there has been a breech of security where `` someone `` has hacked into the hospital network . jordan and the cops instantly identify spinelli and they go to sam and patrick 's home to arrest him . little jake is still a `` mystery `` to elizabeth , to jake and to laura . when he 's alone with jake , we find out that he has overheard his mom and grandma 's private conversation about knowing that his new stepfather jake is really his deceased father jason morgan . | <s>[INST] spinelli : i would have presented you with your gift at the ceremony , but , sadly , i was ... unaware of the occasion . curse the beleaguered postal service for mislaying my invitation . [ chuckles ] michael : it 's okay , spinelli . carly : you did not have to do this . sonny : you really did n't . carly : oh , heavy . let 's see . wow . sonny : yeah . michael : is -- is that a bocce ball ? spinelli : indeed it is , young sir . it 's an elegant game from a much more civilized time . and the beauty of it is that you can play it standing up or sitting down or ... sonny : what are you trying to say there ? michael : uh , i think spinelli 's just giving a gift to his very good friends . spinelli : yes , absolutely . uh , mr. sir , you know , your condition being what it is , i just thought maybe you -- you thought what ? sonny : that i was n't gon na walk again ? well , you 're wrong , 'cause this is temporary . there 's no way in hell that i 'm gon na spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair .

[ footsteps ] carly : if we found a donor , could you do the transplant tonight ? jax : why , what 's going on ? carly : elizabeth 's son jake was hit by a car , and he did n't make it . he 's brain dead . alexis : oh , god . jax : that 's terrible . carly : jake 's father said that we could have one of his kidneys from josslyn . could this work ? terrell : it 's highly unorthodox . jax : but would you do it ? terrell : if the tissue 's a match , i can operate tonight . jax : then please do it . save our daughter .

robin 's funeral ? because i could n't go on letting those people believe it was an accident . it was my fault . spinelli : i was referring to your confession about the demise of lisa niles . anthony zacchara has gone into hiding . he 's not around to corroborate your account . maxie : so , what , my word 's not good enough ? matt : none of what you 're saying makes any sense . maxie : it does n't mean it did n't happen . arrest me . mac : no . maxie : you have no choice . you make an exception for me , you 'll have to make an exception for every other murderer in town . mac : you 're not a murderer . robin 's death was an accident . maxie : but lisa 's was n't . if you do n't take me down to the station right now , i swear i will turn myself in . matt : this is crazy ! he 's not taking you down -- mac , are you taking her down to the station ? maxie : yes , he will . you 're going to . mac : first , you need to answer a question . maxie : and then we 'll go ? mac : it depends on the answer . maxie : fine . mac : why would you kill lisa niles ? dante : so , you 've been reading the papers ? john : yeah , you know , i was trying to catch a flyers score . i like to be current . dante : well , you know , reporters do n't really dig very deep , because if they did , they 'd find out that sonny did n't raise me . i just found out sonny and i were related two years ago . john : oh . you know , they , uh -- they tell me you went undercover in the corinthos organization . that was very brave of you . bet you did n't count on that slug to the chest . dante : no , i did n't count on that slug to the chest . john : tell me something . how does an obviously bright kid like yourself happen to shoot himself trying to pull his own gun ? dante : you know , it was a pretty chaotic night . john : i can imagine . but you were sure enough about it to testify about it in court -- twice . dante : i thought you were here about a car wreck . john : life 's a car wreck . i look at everything . dante : you know , you seem pretty fascinated with sonny corinthos . you got a history there ? john : i 'm not fascinated , but there 's a history . carly : you seeing olivia again ? johnny : i have not seen olivia , at least in the way that you are referring to , in at least a year . carly : oh . you have your hands full at vaughn 's ? johnny : [ chuckling ] oh , look at you . if i did n't know any better , i would say you 're jealous . carly : well , it 's a good thing you know better , huh ? johnny : good thing . good thing . carly : besides , i could dance those no - talent tramps under the table any day . johnny : oh , those tramps are actually talented -- quite talented . dante : how does a cop from pennsylvania get involved with sonny corinthos ? john : i was n't always a cop from pennsylvania . i used to be with the bureau . dante : hmm . `` used to be . `` john : at the time , your daddy was a two - bit hood running money through atlantic city . dante : you know , that 's all great , but i do n't see what your previous dealings with sonny have to do with this case . john : well , i 'd address that , but i do n't think you should even be on this case . dante : well , that 's not up to you , lieutenant mcbain . john : no , it is n't , but it 's a very blatant conflict of interest , do n't you think , officer ? dante : no . i think i 'm doing pretty good . i found the gun , i arrested sonny , i made a statement at the arraignment . everything by the book . john : by the book ? never -- never trust the book . how many loopholes did you leave , huh ? how much room for corinthos ' lawyers to get him an acquittal ? dante : you 're making a lot of assumptions , lieutenant . john : i hate it when i do that . here 's what i do know . cole went through hell to make it back to his family . he wanted to raise his daughter , not die with her . dante : well , here 's what i know . i was at the accident site . my brother almost died trying to save cole and his daughter . john : good . then maybe i should be talking to your brother . dante : actually , my brother does n't have to talk to you . you know what ? neither do i . so , why do n't you turn around and go home and i 'll go back to work ? john : hmm . go home ? dante : yeah . john : no , i think i 'm gon na stick around . i may find someone a little more cooperative . you guys do n't validate for parking or anything , do you ? dante : [ chuckles ] john : eh . sam : okay , you do n't -- you do n't want to go to the hospital . then let 's just go home , jason . jason : you wanted me -- you want me to stay safe ? sam : yes . jason : that 's why you lied ? and that 's what makes it okay -- it was for my own good ? sam : our own good , jason . for you , for me , for the -- for the baby . jason : [ sighs ] sam : where are you going ? jason : i 'm going to say goodbye to robin . do n't follow me . spinelli : maxie , i was with you the night of lisa 's demise . you arrived at the boat very late in the evening . maxie : no , i - i still had time to kill her . spinelli : to what end ? you were there to rendezvous with matt . you had no idea that you would even encounter lisa . maxie : lisa was a total psycho who terrorized everyone i care about . i mean , hello , spinelli ! she shot you . she would have let you bleed to death on that conference - room floor . spinelli : i agree . she was a reprehensible human being , but my point is , you did not have time to plot her death . and -- and if you did kill her in self- defense , you would have no reason to cover it up . maxie : it was n't self - defense . i meant to kill her , and i did . matt : there is a very big difference between wanting someone to die and actually committing murder . maxie : no , i wanted lisa to pay for seducing patrick and trying to murder robin , for kidnapping emma . i -- lisa deserved what she got . mac : no question about it , but you 're not the one who killed her . maxie : lisa made robin 's life miserable , and she almost took her from us . she was a terrible , evil person . mac : who did terrible , evil things -- things that you 're not capable of . maxie : you have no idea what i 'm capable of ! you want to know why i killed lisa ? because robin was too decent of a person to do it . satisfied ? i did it for robin . coleman : [ exhales deeply ] i just want you to know how sorry i am for your loss . robin was a great girl . a great customer , too . i mean , she 'd come in here with a bunch of docs from general hospital , you know , for girls ' night out , and she 'd just light up the room , you know ? mostly , she was just a really , um ... just a really special girl . luke : knocking a few back tonight , are we , slim ? anna : [ sighs ] anna : oh , patrick , i wanted you to be the right man for my daughter ! i wanted you to be a good father and a good husband and love them the way they both deserve to be loved . but you did n't do that . you broke her heart . [ knock on door ] patrick : oh , my god . dad . noah : hello , son . sonny : excuse me . i just came back from jason morgan 's room . it 's empty . you know where i can find him ? jason : [ sighs ] and i never used to wish for things . i did n't -- i did n't see the point . whatever happened , happened , and ... all we can do is live with it . but i wish -- i wish i did n't have to say goodbye to you , robin . [ sniffles ] [ footsteps approach ] sam : do n't look at me like that . i was trying to protect jason . i wanted to make sure that [ sniffles ] our baby knew its father . [ sighs ] you . i know you . me and you sonny : jason , it 's me . i 'm at the hospital , wondering where you are . can you call me ? have you seen jason ? michael : no . i -- actually , i was gon na go see him right now . sonny : the nurse said that he took off . michael : [ sighs ] that sounds like jason . you know how much he hates hospitals . sonny : i wonder , d -- does he know about robin ? michael : i do n't know . how -- how did the funeral go , dad ? sonny : pretty rough . michael : yeah . i do n't think they 're ever easy . carly : if you want to sleep with every talented stripper at vaughn 's ... johnny : dance -- dancer . carly : whatever . ... who am i to stop you ? johnny : so , that would n't bother you , huh ? the thought of me with -- with somebody else ? [ smooches ] carly : not at all . [ smooches ] you do n't answer to me . and you can do whatever -- whomever you want . johnny : hmm . same goes for you . carly : i 'm not ... seeing anyone else . johnny : hmm . neither am i . carly : so , uh , what are we doing here ? [ knock on door ] connie : johnny , you in there ? mac : come on . let 's go . we can use the interrogation room . dante : mac , what 's going on ? spinelli , what 's going on ? spinelli : uh , maxie insisted on being arrested , and the commissioner bowed to her , which is , at last , for fear that she would turn herself in to some less- than - sympathetic agent of law enforcement . dante : yeah , lulu told me the breakdown at the funeral . so she thinks she 's responsible for robin 's death ? spinelli : yeah . sadly , yes . but that 's not why we 're here . maxie 's confessed to the murder of lisa niles . anna : how did you find me , then ? hmm ? luke : i was n't looking . anna : no ? luke : no . sometimes i 'm just drawn here . anna : okay . we 'll have a few . order this man a drink . i am buying . luke : oh , thanks , but , uh , not tonight . i 'm afraid you 're on your own tonight , slim . anna : dear lord . when have you ever refused a drink ? luke : oh , i do now and then . anna : okay . well ... you do n't mind if i drink alone , do you ? luke : why , certainly . do n't mind if you drink , but you 're not alone anna : [ chuckles ] luke : you want to tell me why you 're working on this killer hangover ? anna : [ sighs ] i do n't know . daughter 's funeral . luke : yeah . that could put me in the bottom of a bottle . anna : okay . so , have a drink , then . just -- you know , maybe that 'll make me feel a little bit better . luke : maybe it would for a while , but something tells me that , at some point , you 're gon na want to tell me everything that 's put on this bender and i 'd like to be sober enough to listen . anna : i just destroyed my son - in - law . noah : you gon na invite me in ? patrick : yeah . yeah , of course . uh , come in . i 'm sorry . i just -- i did n't expect to see you . noah : well , your wife just died , son . where else would i be ? sonny : bernie has n't heard from him , either , so i do n't know what 's going on . michael : well , maybe someone finally told him about robin . sonny : yeah , but he could be anywhere , because he was close with robin . they had a connection and ... [ sighs ] michael : dad , do you think it hurts less because jason and robin were n't close anymore ? or do you think it hurts more because of all the time they wasted ? sonny : listen , you should n't -- you should n't compare your pain to other people 's pain . you 're gon na feel what you 're gon na feel . michael : and what about losing a child ? how does somebody get over that ? sonny : when you say `` someone , `` does that mean , uh , that girl starr manning ? connie : come on , johnny . you in there ? johnny : uh , let 's go upstairs . carly : who is that ? connie : come on , johnny . open up . it 's me . carly : that sounds like kate . sam : i know you , do n't i ? john : i do n't think we 've ever met . sam : i - i recognize you . there 's something about your eyes . john : maybe i remind you of someone . sam : that 's not it . i 'm having -- i 'm having the weirdest déja vu right now . it 's like -- are you sure we do n't know each other from somewhere ? my name 's john mcbain . sam : no , that -- that 's not it . john : i 'm pretty sure that 's my name . i can check my driver 's license . sam : i - i do n't know any john mcbain , but i 'm sure that i know you . john : there was an incident at the courthouse . somehow my face ended up in the paper . maybe you saw that . sam : yeah . yeah , maybe . [ sighs ] john : you okay ? sam : no . i think i just lost my husband . elizabeth : what are you doing out of the hospital ? jason : i tried to make it to robin 's funeral , but i was -- i was too late . elizabeth : so you came up here to say goodbye . jason : do you think emma 's gon na remember robin ? elizabeth : yeah . yeah , of course . we 'll -- we 'll help her . we 'll remember . we 'll tell her stories , and we 'll show her pictures . jason : it 's not the same . she 's really not gon na remember robin and know who robin is and how smart she was and the little things that made robin smile or how hard she tried to do the right thing . and now i 've lost her . i 've lost her forever . every day thousands of people [ knock on door ] johnny : come on . let 's go upstairs . connie : well , do n't be rude , johnny . i know you 're in there . carly : she 's not gon na take no for an answer . connie : you see , that 's where you come in . johnny : what , you -- you want me to hurt sonny ? connie : well , not physically . johnny : then how ? connie : well , let me give you a hint . connie : i 'm waiting . carly : are you just gon na pretend like we do n't hear her ? johnny : nothing she can say will interest me , so come on . carly : well , if that 's kate , i 'm really interested in what she has to say . connie : come on . this is about getting back at sonny . [ gasps ] you ? ! carly : what 's this about getting back at sonny ? michael : starr 's family 's funeral was today . sonny : does her -- does her father think he 's really helping by splashing her pain all over the front page of his paper ? michael : i do n't know . he 's just trying to do something , you know ? sonny : since killing me did n't work out . i have -- i have so much compassion for that . losing a child -- it 's -- it 's -- but her father 's a m -- a murderer , and , you know , i mean , he killed his own brother . michael : yeah , starr made it sound like it was a feud that got a little out of control . sonny : well , she does n't want to face the -- the truth about who her father is , but you 're gon na have to . todd manning is the worst enemy there is . he 's got more money than god . he 's got no code whatsoever , and he thinks he 's entitled to do whatever he wants to do . i do n't appreciate him ... calling me a baby killer in those headlines . michael : well , maybe you should sue him , dad . sonny : yeah ? maybe . todd manning thinks that i killed his granddaughter . look at me . do you ? [ footsteps approach ] noah : hi . patrick : uh , two sugars , black . noah : you did n't have to do that . patrick : i 'm sure it 's been a while since you had a good cup of coffee . noah : [ chuckles ] doctors without borders has a lot going for it . good food and drink are not very high on the list . [ cups clink ] patrick : please . so , where you been ? noah : bouncing back and forth between somalia and the sudan . patrick : wow . i 'm sure they 're happy to have you . noah : it took some time for me to get matt 's message about robin , you know ? i 'm so sorry i could n't be here for the funeral . patrick : that 's okay . it 's probably better you were n't . it turned out to be a fiasco . noah : why ? what happened ? patrick : robin 's cousin maxie -- she had a meltdown . she 's convinced that she caused the gas leak that led to the explosion . noah : what ? is that even possible ? patrick : i have no idea . i - i ca n't wrap my head around it . noah : wow . were robin 's parents able to make it to the service ? patrick : her dad had somewhere to be , but ... anna was there . noah : how is , uh -- how is anna ? patrick : she 's grieving . she 's furious . noah : well , sometimes getting mad at god is a way to deal with the pain . patrick : i 'm not sure what her relationship is with god , but she 's furious at me for cheating on robin . she has every right to be . anna : what do you know about this lisa niles woman ? luke : nothing . well , i mean , i 've heard the name . oh , wait . was she the whack- job that was stalking patrick ? anna : oh , you see , you have heard about her . i never heard about her until maxie mentioned her at the funeral . she was so hysterical . i mean , i did n't really know if i had heard her right ... so i was n't really gon na ask patrick . luke : but you did ? anna : yeah . i did . i went back to the roof after we 'd all left , and i asked him . [ sighs ] he cheated on my daughter . he cheated on her when she was in africa treating aids victims . can you believe that , for god 's sake ? luke : i 'm sorry you had to hear that today . anna : it gets better . yeah , you 're right . this woman was a whack - job . she tried to kidnap emma ... and she tried to kill robin . and , still , robin forgave patrick , took him back , and everything was hunky - dory . luke : well , she loved him , slim . anna : all this time , i thought that patrick was making her happy , and he was n't . he was putting her through hell . luke : so , what did you do ? anna : i eviscerated him . luke : did it make you feel better ? anna : no . luke : you know , maybe the reason that it did n't is that , uh , patrick is n't the only one you 're angry with . anna : yeah . i mean , is that lisa niles woman was alive -- but she 's not , she 's dead -- i 'd take her out myself . luke : i 'm sure you would . anna : [ imitates gunshot ] luke : [ chuckles ] anna : [ chuckles ] luke : could it be that the person that you 're the most upset with is robin ? sam : do you ever think it 's okay to lie ? just to , you know , to spare a life , to save somebody pain ? i mean , are those good enough reasons ? john : i 'd probably be the wrong guy to ask . sam : 'cause i lied to my husband about something really important . but i only did it to protect him and our child . john : wow . this sounds eerily familiar . sam : your wife lied to you ? john : yes . well , no , she was n't my wife at the time , but , yes , she lied , and she used the same reason -- that she was protecting me and our child . sam : well , what happened ? john : it tore me up pretty good . when i found out , it was like -- it was like a stake through the heart . jason : robin said goodbye here the first time she went to paris . elizabeth : do you want to be alone ? do you want me to call sam for you ? jason : did sam ask you to not tell me about robin ? elizabeth : [ sighs ] she did n't want anyone to tell you . she was afraid you would n't be strong enough . jason : would you have lied ? elizabeth : i do n't know . that 's why i did n't come see you . jason : well , because monica lied for sam . and alexis and molly did , and -- and even spinelli . elizabeth : she was just trying to protect you . jason : i know . she was just doing it for my own good . she decided what everybody was gon na say , she decided i could n't know robin was dead , and she decided i could n't handle it . how do i forgive that ? | anna is angry with patrick for hurting robin . she says she wo n't forgive him . luke finds anna at jake 's roadhouse . she tries to buy him a drink but he declines . he asks her why she is on a bender . she tells him she just destroyed her son - in - law . she tells him about finding out about patrick 's affair with lisa . luke thinks anna is actually upset with robin . patrick 's father noah drake shows up at his door . he apologized for not making it in time for the funeral . patrick tells him that robin 's father could n't make it either . he tells him that anna is furious about him cheating on robin . he tells him about maxie 's meltdown . maxie tells mac , matt , and spinelli that she killed lisa niles and got anthony zacchara to cover it up in return for her saving his life . no one believes her . matt wants to admit her to general hospital and have dr. keenan evaluate her . maxie insists that mac arrest her . matt asks her why she would kill lisa . maxie says she did it for robin . reluctantly , mac takes her to the station . | <s>[INST] patrick : i know you 're angry . anna : i 'm so -- patrick : and i deserve it . but robin would n't want this between us . anna : oh , do n't you dare tell me what robin would think right now . do n't . patrick : there 's nothing i can do to tell you how sorry i am . to think ... that i caused a second of pain to robin ... anna : does it hurt ? patrick : it kills me . anna : good . [ cell phone ringing ] dante : hey , baby . how 's , uh -- well , how 'd the funeral go ? whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . slow down . slow down . what ? maxie said what ? that 's crazy . maxie is no killer . spinelli : maxie , you are not capable of taking a life , not even lisa niles , much less your beloved cousin . maxie : well , maybe you do n't know me as well as you think . spinelli : i know you better than i know myself . maxie : i do n't get it . you have a confession . what else do you need ? mac : evidence to start with . nothing points to you being a serial killer . maxie : do n't make fun of me ! mac : i 'm not . this is grief talking , maxie . next thing i know , you 'll be admitting you shot out anthony zacchara 's tires and killed that man and his little girl . maxie : no , that was n't me . matt : finally she 's making some sense . maxie : but , now that you bring up anthony zacchara , i did commit a crime with him . matt : and we 're back . mac : maxie -- maxie : why ca n't you see that i 'm a horrible person ? i should be in prison . matt : no , you should be in this hospital . i 'll admit you for exhaustion . that way , you can get some rest , and dr. keenan can take it from there . maxie : i am not crazy ! matt : you 're just lethal ... and anthony zacchara 's partner in crime , apparently ? spinelli : what dealings could you possibly have with the elder zacchara ? maxie : when i killed lisa niles ... i got anthony zacchara to cover it up . dante : look , i do n't know what we can do for maxie . i guess we just got to let her grieve and give her time , support her , that kind of stuff . john : i 'm looking for detective falconeri . yes , he 's right over there . dante : you know what ? i got to -- i got to go . okay . love you , too . i 'll call you back . john : hey . dante : hey . can i help you ? john : yeah . i 'm john mcbain with the llanview , pennsylvania , police department . i 'm here to talk about sonny corinthos . carly : okay . johnny : what ? what ? carly : i mean , did your housekeeper quit ? this is ridiculous . johnny : yeah , something like that . carly : you know , i could send someone over from the hotel . johnny : no , no , no , no . i want to maintain my privacy . plus , i like the spontaneity . carly : oh . [ both chuckle ] me too . johnny : good . carly : what 's that ? johnny : [ chuckling ] what ? carly : not a shade i would wear , unless my last name was falconeri . sonny : i love connie falconeri , but i 'm in love ... with kate howard . connie : i think you need to leave . jason : did the doctors tell you to lie ? sam : what ? jason : after the surgery , did -- did the doctors say i could n't know that robin was dead ? sam : you -- you heard patrick . he said that it was best that you stay calm . jason : that 's not what i asked , sam . when i wanted to go see robin , when i borrowed alexis ' phone to leave robin a message , did the doctors say i should n't know the truth yet ? captain , we have to keep going ! matt : why would zacchara cover for murder for you ? maxie : i saved his life . mac : when ? maxie : that night of the yacht cruise . i fished him out of the water after lisa attacked him . that 's why he got that bodyguard to watch over my apartment . mac : what ? maxie : he said he owed me . spinelli : yeah , the man with the unfortunate fedora . maxie : yeah , well , you know , anthony wanted to thank me for what i did , and when lisa turned up dead , i guess he thought he 'd take it a step further ... matt : by offing the first mate ? maxie : he did n't give me details . he just said it was taken care of . and then i owed him a favor , which is how i ended up planning his wedding to tracy . spinelli : maxie , why would you put your trust in someone so treacherous ? mac : spinelli 's right , maxie . it does n't stop with one favor with the mob . men like anthony and sonny -- they use you until they ca n't use you anymore , probably because you 're dead . maxie : oh . well , why do n't you lock me up , mac ? that way , i 'll be safe and so will everybody else . dante : mcbain . oh , yeah . mcbain . you , uh , arrested the grieving grandfather at the courthouse when he threatened to kill sonny corinthos . john : manning jumped bail in llanview . dante : what 'd he do ? john : murder . dante : oh , that 's good . i 'm glad you got him , then , 'cause it saves him from committing another one . john : forget about it . manning will get what he deserves . what about corinthos ? dante : i do n't know how they do it in llanview , lieutenant , but here in port charles , we uphold the sixth amendment -- innocent until proven guilty . john : yeah , i get it . you know , thinking about that guilty part , juries do n't convict unless the prosecution does their job . dante : uh - huh . john : that begins with you , officer . so , what do you say we go over the evidence you have against corinthos ? dante : with all due respect , lieutenant , how is it any of your business ? sonny : i pay you a compliment , you want to kick me out ? connie : sorry . i was a tad abrupt . sonny : you think ? connie : yeah . listen , sonny , i would love to just be here and have you tell me how wonderful i am all day long , but carmen has a fitting . sonny : you know what ? you do so much already . ca n't you get somebody else to stand in for the models ? connie : have you seen the front desk ? there 's nobody there . sonny : well , then , you 're gon na have to get a new assistant . connie : why ? sonny : because maxie and robin were like sisters . connie : oh , yes . of course they were . sonny : it 's gon na take some time to get over the loss , for all of us . connie : mm - hmm . sonny : what ? connie : speaking of which , did you give jason a call ? i 'm sure he 'd love to see you . sonny : yeah . i 'm gon na -- that 's the next stop . the hospital will be the next s -- connie : that 's good . sonny : okay . connie : okay . [ chuckles ] makeup . sonny : so you 're not gon na kiss me ? connie : it 's messy . sonny : oh , you do n't want to mess up your -- connie : messy . sonny : messy . connie : [ chuckles ] sonny : all right . all right . uh , so , listen . carmen better watch out , because you got that diva thing down pat . call me . [ chuckles ] bye . uhh ! how does she stand that guy ? how does she talk like that ? [ shudders ] okay . just got to play this smart , connie . i got to play this smart . and sonny will be out of our lives for good . john : hey , you know , it becomes my business when the victims were from my jurisdiction . dante : well , the accident went down in port charles . that makes it my case . john : good . i came to the right place -- did n't i ? -- so you know where i 'm coming from . the kid that was killed -- cole thornhart -- he was close to me . there was a time he was like my son . dante : then maybe you can help clear up a discrepancy , because cole thornhart was supposed to be dead -- shot to death in llanview . how did he wind up on a stretch of highway 115 ? john : i do n't know . i do n't care . it does n't change the fact that cole and his daughter were apparent victims of a mob hit gone wrong . dante : i 'm sorry for your loss , but that 's all the more reason for you to turn around and go home , because your personal feelings are gon na cloud this investigation . john : and corinthos being your father wo n't ? patrick : when i told robin , i thought she was gon na leave me . anna : maybe she should have . patrick : i could n't let her go . i could n't let her walk away from the life that we built , the family that we made . i wanted to fix things , but i could n't fix them . robin did . anna : yeah . patrick : i will be forever grateful that your daughter was [ sniffles ] able to forgive me again and trust me again and -- and love me again . anna : oh , yeah . she was just too forgiving for her own good , even to me . patrick : well , i hope she got that from you . anna : what , the art of forgiveness ? you hope she got that from me ? oh , we 're all supposed to forgive you ? is that it , patrick ? let 's all forgive patrick , and he can get on with his life . well , i 'm not going to . and what i ca n't fathom is how you 've managed to forgive yourself . sam : they said that your test results were getting better . i just did n't want to take the chance , jason . it was up for me to decide what it is that i told you and what you were strong enough to hear . you came so close to dying . i did n't want to risk losing you over something that you could n't change . robin was already gone . i knew you would risk your life and try to come to the funeral . jason : you think that 's what this is about ? her funeral ? sam : jason , you just woke up from brain surgery this morning . you should n't even be standing here . jason : [ sighs ] sam : i do n't care . i 'll say it a million times . i think you should be in the hospital right now . jason : no . sam : no ? jason : no . sam : they need to run more tests . jason : i 'm not going back to the hospital ! just leave it alone . maxie : now you know everything . let 's get this over with . spinelli : if i could just interject before the shackling takes place . mac : by all means . spinelli : the timing of your confession seems somewhat convenient , given the current circumstances . maxie : what current circumstances ? robin 's funeral ? because i could n't go on letting those people believe it was an accident . it was my fault . spinelli : i was referring to your confession about the demise of lisa niles . anthony zacchara has gone into hiding . he 's not around to corroborate your account . maxie : so , what , my word 's not good enough ? matt : none of what you 're saying makes any sense . maxie : it does n't mean it did n't happen . arrest me . mac : no . maxie : you have no choice . you make an exception for me , you 'll have to make an exception for every other murderer in town . mac : you 're not a murderer . robin 's death was an accident . maxie : but lisa 's was n't . if you do n't take me down to the station right now , i swear i will turn myself in . matt : this is crazy ! he 's not taking you down -- mac , are you taking her down to the station ? maxie : yes , he will . you 're going to . mac : first , you need to answer a question . maxie : and then we 'll go ? mac : it depends on the answer . maxie : fine . mac : why would you kill lisa niles ? dante : so , you 've been reading the papers ? john : yeah , you know , i was trying to catch a flyers score . i like to be current . dante : well , you know , reporters do n't really dig very deep , because if they did , they 'd find out that sonny did n't raise me . i just found out sonny and i were related two years ago . john : oh . you know , they , uh -- they tell me you went undercover in the corinthos organization . that was very brave of you . bet you did n't count on that slug to the chest . dante : no , i did n't count on that slug to the chest . john : tell me something . how does an obviously bright kid like yourself happen to shoot himself trying to pull his own gun ? dante : you know , it was a pretty chaotic night . john : i can imagine . but you were sure enough about it to testify about it in court -- twice . dante : i thought you were here about a car wreck . john : life 's a car wreck . i look at everything . dante : you know , you seem pretty fascinated with sonny corinthos . you got a history there ? john : i 'm not fascinated , but there 's a history . carly : you seeing olivia again ? johnny : i have not seen olivia , at least in the way that you are referring to , in at least a year . carly : oh . you have your hands full at vaughn 's ? johnny : [ chuckling ] oh , look at you . if i did n't know any better , i would say you 're jealous . carly : well , it 's a good thing you know better , huh ? johnny : good thing . good thing . carly : besides , i could dance those no - talent tramps under the table any day . johnny : oh , those tramps are actually talented -- quite talented . dante : how does a cop from pennsylvania get involved with sonny corinthos ? john : i was n't always a cop from pennsylvania . i used to be with the bureau . dante : hmm . `` used to be . `` john : at the time , your daddy was a two - bit hood running money through atlantic city . dante : you know , that 's all great , but i do n't see what your previous dealings with sonny have to do with this case . john : well , i 'd address that , but i do n't think you should even be on this case . dante : well , that 's not up to you , lieutenant mcbain . john : no , it is n't , but it 's a very blatant conflict of interest , do n't you think , officer ? dante : no . i think i 'm doing pretty good . i found the gun , i arrested sonny , i made a statement at the arraignment . everything by the book . john : by the book ? never -- never trust the book . how many loopholes did you leave , huh ? how much room for corinthos ' lawyers to get him an acquittal ? dante : you 're making a lot of assumptions , lieutenant . john : i hate it when i do that . here 's what i do know . cole went through hell to make it back to his family . he wanted to raise his daughter , not die with her . dante : well , here 's what i know . i was at the accident site . my brother almost died trying to save cole and his daughter . john : good . then maybe i should be talking to your brother . dante : actually , my brother does n't have to talk to you . you know what ? neither do i . so , why do n't you turn around and go home and i 'll go back to work ? john : hmm . go home ? dante : yeah . john : no , i think i 'm gon na stick around . i may find someone a little more cooperative . you guys do n't validate for parking or anything , do you ?

you were there to rendezvous with matt . you had no idea that you would even encounter lisa . maxie : lisa was a total psycho who terrorized everyone i care about . i mean , hello , spinelli ! she shot you . she would have let you bleed to death on that conference - room floor . spinelli : i agree . she was a reprehensible human being , but my point is , you did not have time to plot her death . and -- and if you did kill her in self- defense , you would have no reason to cover it up . maxie : it was n't self - defense . i meant to kill her , and i did . matt : there is a very big difference between wanting someone to die and actually committing murder . maxie : no , i wanted lisa to pay for seducing patrick and trying to murder robin , for kidnapping emma . i -- lisa deserved what she got . mac : no question about it , but you 're not the one who killed her . maxie : lisa made robin 's life miserable , and she almost took her from us . she was a terrible , evil person . mac : who did terrible , evil things -- things that you 're not capable of . maxie : you have no idea what i 'm capable of ! you want to know why i killed lisa ? because robin was too decent of a person to do it . satisfied ? i did it for robin . coleman : [ exhales deeply ] i just want you to know how sorry i am for your loss . robin was a great girl . a great customer , too . i mean , she 'd come in here with a bunch of docs from general hospital , you know , for girls ' night out , and she 'd just light up the room , you know ? mostly , she was just a really , um ... just a really special girl . luke : knocking a few back tonight , are we , slim ? anna : [ sighs ] anna : oh , patrick , i wanted you to be the right man for my daughter ! i wanted you to be a good father and a good husband and love them the way they both deserve to be loved . but you did n't do that . you broke her heart .

[ knock on door ] connie : johnny , you in there ? mac : come on . let 's go . we can use the interrogation room . dante : mac , what 's going on ? spinelli , what 's going on ? spinelli : uh , maxie insisted on being arrested , and the commissioner bowed to her , which is , at last , for fear that she would turn herself in to some less- than - sympathetic agent of law enforcement . dante : yeah , lulu told me the breakdown at the funeral . so she thinks she 's responsible for robin 's death ? spinelli : yeah . sadly , yes . but that 's not why we 're here . maxie 's confessed to the murder of lisa niles . anna : how did you find me , then ? hmm ? luke : i was n't looking . anna : no ? luke : no . sometimes i 'm just drawn here . anna : okay . we 'll have a few . order this man a drink . i am buying . luke : oh , thanks , but , uh , not tonight . i 'm afraid you 're on your own tonight , slim . anna : dear lord . when have you ever refused a drink ? luke : oh , i do now and then . anna : okay . well ... you do n't mind if i drink alone , do you ? luke : why , certainly . do n't mind if you drink , but you 're not alone anna : [ chuckles ] luke : you want to tell me why you 're working on this killer hangover ? anna : [ sighs ] i do n't know . daughter 's funeral . luke : yeah . that could put me in the bottom of a bottle . anna : okay . so , have a drink , then . just -- you know , maybe that 'll make me feel a little bit better . luke : maybe it would for a while , but something tells me that , at some point , you 're gon na want to tell me everything that 's put on this bender and i 'd like to be sober enough to listen . anna : i just destroyed my son - in - law . noah : you gon na invite me in ? patrick : yeah . yeah , of course . uh , come in . i 'm sorry . i just -- i did n't expect to see you . noah : well , your wife just died , son . where else would i be ? sonny : bernie has n't heard from him , either , so i do n't know what 's going on . michael : well , maybe someone finally told him about robin . sonny : yeah , but he could be anywhere , because he was close with robin . they had a connection and ... [ sighs ] michael : dad , do you think it hurts less because jason and robin were n't close anymore ? or do you think it hurts more because of all the time they wasted ? sonny : listen , you should n't -- you should n't compare your pain to other people 's pain . you 're gon na feel what you 're gon na feel . michael : and what about losing a child ? how does somebody get over that ? sonny : when you say `` someone , `` does that mean , uh , that girl starr manning ? connie : come on , johnny . you in there ? johnny : uh , let 's go upstairs . carly : who is that ? connie : come on , johnny . open up . it 's me . carly : that sounds like kate . sam : i know you , do n't i ? john : i do n't think we 've ever met . sam : i - i recognize you . there 's something about your eyes . john : maybe i remind you of someone . sam : that 's not it . i 'm having -- i 'm having the weirdest déja vu right now . it 's like -- are you sure we do n't know each other from somewhere ? my name 's john mcbain . sam : no , that -- that 's not it . john : i 'm pretty sure that 's my name . i can check my driver 's license . sam : i - i do n't know any john mcbain , but i 'm sure that i know you . john : there was an incident at the courthouse . somehow my face ended up in the paper . maybe you saw that . sam : yeah . yeah , maybe .

[ clears throat ] victor : how are you ? what can i do for you ? or do i need to ask ? jill : it 's actually what i can do for you . victor : you know i enjoy our conversations a lot , but there 's not a hell of a lot you can do for me . have a seat . jill : i think by this time , we are past the smoke and mirrors . let 's talk chancellor , shall we ? victor : i 'm not selling . jill : yeah , but see ? newman - chancellor is hurting . it 's hurting very , very badly . i told you that backing this warehouse - development project was a bad call . and now everybody knows you 're the seller . whoa ! you can take a huge hit for that . and so is newman - chancellor . victor : but i got news for you . al - estate prices are going up , so i 'm gon na make a fortune . jill : except if that pesky impact study quashes the sale , then you 're not gon na get the influx of capital that you need . victor : oh ! now you think i need an influx of capital ? you read my mind , or what ? jill : i can help you save face , and i can make you a bundle . and i may be your last hope . victor : [ chuckles ] you 're my last hope ? well ... abby : is it possible to overload on the product ? stitch : well , i suppose you could go swimming in a vat of it , but not sure anybody would want to be around you . abby : no , i mean use it in other applications . stitch : you mean to add the fragrance to soaps and shampoos ? abby : yeah , and skin cream . i mean , have you and my mom discussed the cumulative effect ? oh , come on . i know big words . stitch : that 's a big one . [ chuckles ] cumulative . ashley : have you seen this ? stitch : `` newman - chancellor reviving ... `` abby : brash and sassy . stitch : yeah , what -- what is this ? this means ... abby : no , you were n't a teenage girl in the ' 90s , so you probably would n't understand , but this is huge . it 's iconic . and wait -- it 's back ? ashley : this is victor and victoria trying to steal our thunder and beat us to market . stitch : could they roll product out before ours ? abby : well , they have instant branding and a marketing entree , but as far as product development goes , who knows at they have . ashley : exactly . who knows what they have . but more importantly , do they know what we have ? stitch : whoa . hold up . victoria and i do n't talk about business . ashley : so , you do n't know that she 's relaunching a heritage brand ? stitch : yeah , she mentioned a new venture , but nothing specific . abby : how bad is this for us ? ashley : best - case scenario -- it 's a compliment and victor 's threatened . worst - case scenario -- he knows what we have , he knows how to make it , and that would be very , very bad for us . stitch : [ chuckles ] what are you saying ? that i spilled information about our product ? ashley : men have done far less for love . jill : i may not be your last hope , but i do n't see a whole lineup of people behind me waiting to help you out . victor : i 'll be damned . how kind of you to want to protect me . jill : i 'm a very kind and generous soul . victor : oh , yes , do n't we know . you know , in spite of your kindness and generosity and in spite of the latest development , the sale will go through . jill : this is me , okay ? i am not some corporate neophyte who thinks you part the red sea . i have seen you up and down and in between . [ both laugh ] victor : yeah , yeah , yeah . you and i have been in many positions , have n't we ? jill : that 's why i know you need the cash , my friend . you need a lot of cash . victor : oh , yeah ? jill : yeah . victor : how the hell do you know that ? jill : because you 're messing with nikki 's son 's business , all right ? you 're trying to sell crimson lights out from under dylan . now , you would not be risking nikki 's wrath nor her health if you could help it . victor : you know , i 'm touched by your concern for nikki 's health . jill : this bonaventure mess ... victor : right . jill : ... has turned chancellor into a stuck pig . victor : ah . and you want to take that stuck pig off my hands . is that it ? jill : chancellor should have been mine . you know it , and i know it . i ran it . i ran it well . and i love it . and god knows why katherine left it to you . victor : you and i both know why she did . because she thought it would be in safer hands with me . jill : i want chancellor . i want it back . victor : ai n't gon na happen . jill : [ laughs ] you 're funny . you 're very funny . chancellor eventually will be what it should always have been . mine . now , why not do this as friends instead of enemies , huh ? phyllis : you planted this in our living room right where jack would find it . kelly : jack found that wig in his house ? phyllis : our house . his and mine . kelly : a wig was found in your house , and what ? you think that i planted it there ? phyllis : yeah . to make jack think i went to the florist with a blonde wig . but somehow i gave them my own name , as if i were that stupid . you see , if i was gon na destroy your life , i would commit , not pull this half - ass - job stuff that you were trying to frame me for . kelly : it is not my fault , phyllis , if you slipped up . and it is not my fault if jack is finally starting to realize the truth about you . phyllis : you scattered roses all around your bed like some ridiculous schoolgirl 's vision of romance . the night i planned for jack was n't like that at all , because i 'm a woman . i 'm an adult . and i just happen to know what jack wants . kelly : well , according to you , he wants a deranged fiancée waving a wig around a public place . phyllis : admit what you did , or we go to war like you ca n't even imagine . kelly : okay , phyllis . let 's just do this . once and for all . hilary : we ca n't do this , okay ? you ca n't be here . devon : this was supposed to be our alone time away from everybody . hilary : lily can come out any second . devon : i need this time with you . hilary : not like this . devon : then how ? hilary : i 'm here with your sister , okay ? and where does gwen think you are ? devon : i do n't care where gwen thinks i am . i do n't want to think about her or neil or anybody else right now . hilary : [ sighs ] okay . me neither . i just ... just give me some time , okay ? i will fix this somehow . we 'll have our time together . lily : yeah , and hilary is seriously stressed out . cane : how can she be stressed out ? she 's at a spa . lily : well , we have n't started treatments yet , but i just did n't realize how much her job and things at home were getting to her . and speaking of home , how are you holding up without me ? cane : doing okay . your dad 's giving me some tips and tricks on how to run the club and mind the kids . lily : you are my hero . how can i repay you ? cane : have fun there for me , okay , and relax . i love you . lily : all right . love you , too . bye . cane : all right . girls are relaxing . spa treatments are about to begin . neil : nice . colin : hey , just the ticket . a new beginning . you and chancellor , back where katherine always meant you to be . cane : [ sighs ] well , we have n't quite gotten there yet , dad . colin : but you will be , my boy . neil : you got to get through victor first . and that 's no easy feat . colin : yeah , but it can be done . neil : well , on rare occasion . you know what ? just when you think victor is down for the count , he comes back stronger , he comes back harder than ever . you 'll never see it coming , let me tell you . gwen : hello . cane : hey . neil : hi . hi , gwen . gwen : saw a table of handsome , powerful men . thought i 'd say hello . colin : oh , that 'd be me . cane : no , she 's talking about ... colin : let 's you and i adjourn and have a little chat . cane : sure . neil : okay , guys . have a good one . i - i have to talk to gwen , anyway . gwen : about what ? neil : well ... i have a favor to ask of you . colin : let 's you and me hammer out a plan to get back chancellor . cane : dad , all right , listen . this is something jill and i are doing , okay ? unfortunately , you do n't factor in , all right ? colin : sure , i do . unless , of course , you want this to be just a pipe dream . cane : it 's not gon na be a pipe dream , and jill and i know chancellor , and we have both dealt with victor . sorry . colin : look , i have the utmost respect for both of you . cane : uh - huh . colin : but this is where you need access to my wicked , wicked ways . i mean , it takes a scoundrel to catch a scoundrel . jill : this is the way you want to part with chancellor -- doing business with a friend , with somebody who knows you [ chuckles ] and respects you . i will even let you draft the press release . um , change of heart , respect for me , dear katherine , you want to concentrate on newman , yadda , yadda , yadda . you 'll come out the better man . it 'll help polish up your image after publicly trying to destroy your wife 's son . victor : and you would do that for me ? i 'm touched . how lucky i am that you came into my office today . jill : i told you i 'm very generous . victor : i 'm so touched by your generosity . jill : [ laughs ] victor : but i 'm not . and you and cane do n't have the financial wherewithal to buy a corporation of this size , unless you want me to take an iou . jill : i got a little something that i can shake out of my piggy bank . i 've been saving for a rainy day . victor : [ chuckles ] how much do you have in your piggy bank ? jill : how much do you want , victor ? phyllis : is this what stalkers do in their free time ? drink tea ? kelly : i 'm trying to be civil here , phyllis . phyllis : well , is n't that just darling , coming from the woman who set me up . why do n't you admit what you did , or do n't waste my time . kelly : phyllis , would you stop , please ? i did n't -- phyllis : you 're backpedaling . kelly : look , i know what it 's like to love jack . i know what it 's like to be wounded by him . phyllis : oh , yeah , so wounded you went all `` operation frame my fiancée `` on us . kelly : how could i plant a wig in your house ? i do n't even have a key anymore . phyllis : i have to believe you can get a copy of a key at a hardware store . but unfortunately for you , we changed the locks this morning . kelly : would you please stop making me the villain here ? phyllis : oh , oh , wait a minute . that 's right . that 's right . you 're the pure and innocent , little flower , and i 'm the rabid , pissed off former coma patient , right ? that 's the game we 're playing here . kelly : why does anybody have to be the villain ? yes , you were in a coma , right ? nobody would blame you for acting out and framing me to look like a -- phyllis : bunny boiler ? kelly : you 're really gon na have to stop with the name - calling , phyllis . just go to jack . ask him for help . phyllis : i 'm sorry . are you giving me guidance ? kelly : no , i am trying to give you the benefit of the doubt . there could be a medical excuse for what you did . phyllis : what 's your excuse for being a sneaky bitch ? kelly : okay . i 'm gon na take a minute here , and i would like you to do the same -- to take a minute and calm down and think . really think about what you 're doing , phyllis . phyllis : tea 's cold . kelly : i 'll have someone bring you some more hot water . meanwhile , i have to get back to work . phyllis : work ? what does that mean ? folding napkins into swans or ... ? kelly : i do n't have to stand here and humor you or talk to you like you 're some kind of rational person when you have bullied me and humiliated me . and why ? all because jack had the gall to care about me ? phyllis : i have done nothing to you . you have done all of this by setting me up , and i swear i will get you to say the words . kelly : look at you . you 're in a public place , and you 're ready for a cat fight , are n't you ? why do n't you come over here , honey ? why do n't you slap me around and pull my hair and do whatever women like you do ? and then you go and you explain that to jack . phyllis : do n't say his name . do not talk about him . and do not think you can mess with me and not pay for it . kelly : are n't you forgetting something ? abby : `` reviving a heritage brand for new market . brash and sassy -- organic essences . `` ashley : note the use of our buzzwords . stitch : okay , okay . `` organic essences `` is pretty standard right now . ashley : that story is not for the public . it 's for us . it 's a message from victor to us . abby : wait . do you think he knows our ingredients ? because if dad knows , then game over . but how could he ? stitch : there it is . another look in my direction . abby : hey , we 're all in the same room . i got to look at someone . but if you 're feeling guilty about something ... stitch : okay , victoria and i do n't talk about these things . you want to wire me up for a lie - detector test ? abby : you convinced cops and a judge that you killed your own father . i 'm pretty sure you could pass a test about a perfume . stitch : okay , you know , i can take that from her , but you and i , if you do n't feel like you can trust me , we got a problem . if you think i gave information to victoria , then just go ahead and fire me right now . ashley : i 'm not gon na fire you . i 'm gon na fire you . tobias : what ? i was just in the break room . ashley : you 're a mole planted here by victor . and i 've humored him and you for far too long by letting you stay here . tobias : victor new -- ashley : stop it . did victor tell you that the pictures you were taking of those files were just garbage ? because they were . you were basically taking photos of a chemical formula for tequila . and i 'm sure that victor probably figured that out immediately , and yet you still came to work day after day . why is that ? tobias : i ... like it here . ashley : please do n't insult my intelligence . you got nothing from me or my lab . that means there 's another mole out there that was able to g viable information . you know what i did ? i let my guard down . i thought you were neutralized . but there 's somebody else . give me a name and i wo n't have you arrested . cane : this is what we call a legitimate business , all right ? so your expertise and your scurrilous ways , they do n't apply . colin : bu you see , i beg to differ . i could guide the chancellor ship through shark - infested waters . you and my missus , of course . cane : but there you go . see , there 's no ship because victor does n't want to sell . [ both laugh ] cane : you see ? colin : it 's a bluff . everyone knows that company 's up the creek without a paddle . cane : okay , everybody also knows that victor loved katherine and victor hates to lose , so he 's not gon na hand over chancellor . colin : everyone has a price . jill : would you like to see victor 's price ? it will make your eyeballs bleed . cane : wait , wait , wait . do you have the figure ? jill : yep . take a look at that . colin : it 's an opening volley . jill : it 's an opening nightmare . cane : do you think he means it ? jill : [ sighs ] what does it matter if he means it ? we do n't have it . neil : you know , gwen , that conversation that you and i had about where things stand with u and devon ? i thank you for that . i appreciate it . gwen : might have been more than you wanted to know . but i was sharing the joy that day , and i spilled to hilary , too . neil : hmm . gwen : i 'm calmer now . but things with devon and i are still great . neil : i got an idea . why do n't we have all three of us have dinner ? hilary 's at the spa . and maybe you can keep this old blind man company . gwen : i would love to have dinner , but devon texted this morning . he had to go away on business . neil : where 's that man off to now ? gwen : he did n't say , but it sounded important , like he could n't say no . jack : doctor , i have known and loved phyllis for i ca n't even tell you how long . she 's an amazing woman . she 's complex , at times frustrating , but i accept that . that 's who she is . i love her for every bit of it . she 's changed . i need to know if this procedure of yours , if -- if patients are waking up changed , acting out in ways even they do n't understand . i need to know that . [ door opens ] phyllis : hello . jack : hi , sweetheart . this is dr. cutler . i do n't think the two of you have officially met . dr. cutler : it 's wonderful to see you with your eyes open . phyllis : you 're the doctor with the magic coma juice . dr. cutler : [ chuckles ] it 's an interesting way to put it , but yes . that 's me . phyllis : yes , i can turn a phrase , that 's for sure . but that 's -- that 's not why you 're here . jack : dr. cutler is here because i invited him . phyllis : gotcha . jack is wondering if i woke up loopy . but that is not about you or me , for that matter . there is a woman by the name of kelly who is doing a bang - up job of making jack question my sanity . jack : i called dr. cutler because i love you . do you want to figure this out or not ? ashley : victor hired you to steal trade secrets . you failed miserably . did you know that victor hates failures ? he 's never gon na hire you again . ever . your career 's over . but you give me the name of the successful mole , and i wo n't call the cops right now and have you arrested for corporate espionage . tobias : i do n't know . i gave him photos of those files with the formulas , but other than that , that 's it . if there 's someone else , i do n't know . i swear to you , ashley . ashley : i do n't know what victor was thinking with you . just go . tobias : but -- ashley : go ! now ! stitch : hey , i 'll take this . i 'll make sure you get to your car . no detours . unless you want to question me next . ashley : just get him out . tobias : ashley , please . stitch : come on . abby : you almost made tobias cry . i want to be you . ashley : he definitely does n't know anything about the formula for our fragrance , but that does n't mean that victor has n't found out another way . abby : maybe it was stitch . he was doing a lot of protesting earlier , and he did con the whole world . what ? ashley : please just stop with the baseless accusations . give me five minutes of quiet . i just need to think , okay ? this is really , really , really important . abby : uh , you were practically accusing him yourself earlier , but yet i 'm not allowed to say anything ? yeah , yeah . that 's reasonable . ashley : what the hell is that ? abby ? what was that ? let me have it . what was that ? abby : it might be a little bit of the product . ashley : you stole that ? ! abby : no , i - i just borrowed it . it was a sample . ashley : that 's never supposed to leave the premises , not for any circumstances ! you know that ! abby : i know , i know . i was just -- i was gon na put a little on victoria and shove her towards billy . ashley : what are you thinking ? abby : i 'm sorry . ashley : was this around victor at all ? he could have analyzed that ! abby : mom , he does n't have it , i swear . at least he did n't get it from me . ashley : could victor have had that ? tell me the truth . abby : mom , if dad has gotten in your head , then he has already won . regardless of whether or not he has the compound . ashley : you 're right . i 'm sorry . it 's just , you know , this whole thing is so big . i mean , this could be what jabot and i are known for the years to come . abby : and it will be . and i love being a part of this . i would never do anything to hurt you or this project . ashley : victor 's definitely sniffing around . i have to find out exactly what he knows . abby : if anyone can take on my father , it 's my mother . cane : basically victor is holding chancellor for ransom . jill : if i could just get my hands on katherine 's neck one last time ... cane : well , we do n't have that kind of capital , and we never will , so ... colin : never say never , my boy . jill : you know what we need ? we need to look for investors . cane : uh , investors who would interfere with our control ? colin : you only need one . and perhaps i can help . jill : how ? how would you help ? neil : he 's not even answering his phone , huh ? must be one hell of a meeting . gwen : very hush - hush . but that 's what i love about devon . he does n't brag . he does n't publicize . but you know he 's always a mover and a shaker . hilary : no , please , you take the first massage . lily : but i just feel so guilty . this was your spa trip . hilary : yeah , well , i am not the one with a job and two kids , okay ? go . go . enjoy . lily : okay , okay . i 'll see you later . hilary : be down soon . lily : all right . hilary : [ sighs ] [ knock on door ] devon : she 's gone . hilary : so , you 're here to talk . devon : there 's never enough time for us . jack : sweetheart , this is not about kelly . just forget her . phyllis : yeah , i 'd love to . maybe i should go to sharon 's ect doctor . zap it all out . that was a joke . jack : listen , victor played god and submitted you to experimental treatment without any regard to the residual effects . dr. cutler : my methods are clearly effective . but aftercare is imperative . now , i 'd like to examine you in my facility . phyllis : right . thanks for coming . dr. cutler . goodbye . jack : phyllis , dr. cutler was -- phyllis : was bought and paid for by victor . thank you for waking me up , but i am happy with the neurologist i have now . dr. cutler : i have an expertise in this situation that your neurologist does not . and no one owns me , ms . newman . phyllis : jack should n't have called you . now that i am awake and sane , if i need a doctor , i can call him . i do n't . dr. cutler : i 'll be in town until tomorrow if you reconsider . phyllis : are you staying at the athletic club ? because if you see a crazy - eyed blonde walking around , you should stay clear of her . jack : thank you , doctor , for stopping by . dr. cutler : i 'll show myself out . [ door closes ] phyllis : how did you get him to come here ? what did you tell him ? jack : there is nothing wrong with some follow - up medical care . phyllis : yeah , there is , when you think i 'm crazy . stitch : kelly ? kelly : hey . hi . stitch : oh . you , too . not the best day ? kelly : not the best day . stitch : yeah . this about jack ? kelly : and his maniacal fiancée who 's now calling me a stalker . stitch : oh , my god . what happened ? kelly : it 's too convoluted , but suffice it to say , i - i 'm being blamed yet again for something i did not do . stitch : and that 's frustrating as hell . kelly : yes . stitch : yeah . you can explain and defend , but i guess people are gon na think what they want to think , right ? kelly : and why believe phyllis and not me ? i mean , what have i ever done that comes close to what that woman is capable of ? i mean , i - i could n't , ben . i - i would n't . how do i make jack under -- oh . stitch : kelly ? kelly : oh ! stitch : hey . hey . kelly : ben , something 's wro -- stitch : kelly . kelly : [ exhales deeply ] stitch : kelly ! ashley : tell me . have you heard from tobias lately ? i fired him for corporate espionage . he was unbelievably inept . but you still seem to have acquired some information regarding our formula . victor : who the hell is tobias ? ashley : `` organic essences `` ? those were the buzzwords you used in your press release , and you used them to needle me . victor : really ? ashley : mm - hmm . victor : so , you based your formula on organic essences ? is that it ? ashley : i do n't know what it is , but your antics just are n't as entertaining as they used to be . victor : ah . ashley : you know very well that we are using a rare root extract from central america . but you do n't know how we apply it . you do n't know the concentration . and you do n't know the other ingredients , and you never will , so could you please just stop with the moles and stop with the press releases that are designed merely to annoy me ? will you please just stop wasting my time ? victor : so , it 's no longer a formula based on some nonsense that produces tequila ? ashley : [ laughs ] you know , that 's practically an admission of guilt , is n't it ? you 're spying . victor : i thought you would enjoy this game as much as i do , you know . but if you do n't , let 's just end this in a draw and in friendship . ashley : i 'm so happy that after all these years , we still understand each other .

i did n't -- phyllis : you 're backpedaling . kelly : look , i know what it 's like to love jack . i know what it 's like to be wounded by him . phyllis : oh , yeah , so wounded you went all `` operation frame my fiancée `` on us . kelly : how could i plant a wig in your house ? i do n't even have a key anymore . phyllis : i have to believe you can get a copy of a key at a hardware store . but unfortunately for you , we changed the locks this morning . kelly : would you please stop making me the villain here ? phyllis : oh , oh , wait a minute . that 's right . that 's right . you 're the pure and innocent , little flower , and i 'm the rabid , pissed off former coma patient , right ? that 's the game we 're playing here . kelly : why does anybody have to be the villain ? yes , you were in a coma , right ? nobody would blame you for acting out and framing me to look like a -- phyllis : bunny boiler ? kelly : you 're really gon na have to stop with the name - calling , phyllis . just go to jack . ask him for help . phyllis : i 'm sorry . are you giving me guidance ? kelly : no , i am trying to give you the benefit of the doubt . there could be a medical excuse for what you did . phyllis : what 's your excuse for being a sneaky bitch ? kelly : okay . i 'm gon na take a minute here , and i would like you to do the same -- to take a minute and calm down and think . really think about what you 're doing , phyllis . phyllis : tea 's cold . kelly : i 'll have someone bring you some more hot water . meanwhile , i have to get back to work . phyllis : work ? what does that mean ? folding napkins into swans or ... ? kelly : i do n't have to stand here and humor you or talk to you like you 're some kind of rational person when you have bullied me and humiliated me . and why ? all because jack had the gall to care about me ? phyllis : i have done nothing to you . you have done all of this by setting me up , and i swear i will get you to say the words . kelly : look at you . you 're in a public place , and you 're ready for a cat fight , are n't you ? why do n't you come over here , honey ? why do n't you slap me around and pull my hair and do whatever women like you do ? and then you go and you explain that to jack . phyllis : do n't say his name . do not talk about him . and do not think you can mess with me and not pay for it . kelly : are n't you forgetting something ? abby : `` reviving a heritage brand for new market . brash and sassy -- organic essences . `` ashley : note the use of our buzzwords . stitch : okay , okay . `` organic essences `` is pretty standard right now . ashley : that story is not for the public . it 's for us . it 's a message from victor to us . abby : wait . do you think he knows our ingredients ? because if dad knows , then game over . but how could he ? stitch : there it is . another look in my direction . abby : hey , we 're all in the same room . i got to look at someone . but if you 're feeling guilty about something ... stitch : okay , victoria and i do n't talk about these things . you want to wire me up for a lie - detector test ? abby : you convinced cops and a judge that you killed your own father . i 'm pretty sure you could pass a test about a perfume . stitch : okay , you know , i can take that from her , but you and i , if you do n't feel like you can trust me , we got a problem . if you think i gave information to victoria , then just go ahead and fire me right now . ashley : i 'm not gon na fire you . i 'm gon na fire you . tobias : what ? i was just in the break room . ashley : you 're a mole planted here by victor . and i 've humored him and you for far too long by letting you stay here . tobias : victor new -- ashley : stop it . did victor tell you that the pictures you were taking of those files were just garbage ? because they were . you were basically taking photos of a chemical formula for tequila . and i 'm sure that victor probably figured that out immediately , and yet you still came to work day after day . why is that ? tobias : i ... like it here . ashley : please do n't insult my intelligence . you got nothing from me or my lab . that means there 's another mole out there that was able to g viable information . you know what i did ? i let my guard down . i thought you were neutralized . but there 's somebody else . give me a name and i wo n't have you arrested . cane : this is what we call a legitimate business , all right ? so your expertise and your scurrilous ways , they do n't apply . colin : bu you see , i beg to differ . i could guide the chancellor ship through shark - infested waters . you and my missus , of course . cane : but there you go . see , there 's no ship because victor does n't want to sell . [ both laugh ] cane : you see ? colin : it 's a bluff . everyone knows that company 's up the creek without a paddle . cane : okay , everybody also knows that victor loved katherine and victor hates to lose , so he 's not gon na hand over chancellor . colin : everyone has a price . jill : would you like to see victor 's price ? it will make your eyeballs bleed . cane : wait , wait , wait . do you have the figure ? jill : yep . take a look at that . colin : it 's an opening volley . jill : it 's an opening nightmare . cane : do you think he means it ? jill : [ sighs ] what does it matter if he means it ? we do n't have it . neil : you know , gwen , that conversation that you and i had about where things stand with u and devon ? i thank you for that . i appreciate it . gwen : might have been more than you wanted to know . but i was sharing the joy that day , and i spilled to hilary , too . neil : hmm . gwen : i 'm calmer now . but things with devon and i are still great . neil : i got an idea . why do n't we have all three of us have dinner ? hilary 's at the spa . and maybe you can keep this old blind man company . gwen : i would love to have dinner , but devon texted this morning . he had to go away on business . neil : where 's that man off to now ? gwen : he did n't say , but it sounded important , like he could n't say no . jack : doctor , i have known and loved phyllis for i ca n't even tell you how long . she 's an amazing woman . she 's complex , at times frustrating , but i accept that . that 's who she is . i love her for every bit of it . she 's changed . i need to know if this procedure of yours , if -- if patients are waking up changed , acting out in ways even they do n't understand . i need to know that . [ door opens ] phyllis : hello . jack : hi , sweetheart . this is dr. cutler . i do n't think the two of you have officially met . dr. cutler : it 's wonderful to see you with your eyes open . phyllis : you 're the doctor with the magic coma juice . dr. cutler : [ chuckles ] it 's an interesting way to put it , but yes . that 's me . phyllis : yes , i can turn a phrase , that 's for sure . but that 's -- that 's not why you 're here . jack : dr. cutler is here because i invited him . phyllis : gotcha . jack is wondering if i woke up loopy . but that is not about you or me , for that matter . there is a woman by the name of kelly who is doing a bang - up job of making jack question my sanity . jack : i called dr. cutler because i love you . do you want to figure this out or not ? ashley : victor hired you to steal trade secrets . you failed miserably . did you know that victor hates failures ? he 's never gon na hire you again . ever . your career 's over . but you give me the name of the successful mole , and i wo n't call the cops right now and have you arrested for corporate espionage . tobias : i do n't know . i gave him photos of those files with the formulas , but other than that , that 's it . if there 's someone else , i do n't know . i swear to you , ashley . ashley : i do n't know what victor was thinking with you . just go . tobias : but -- ashley : go ! now ! stitch : hey , i 'll take this . i 'll make sure you get to your car . no detours . unless you want to question me next . ashley : just get him out . tobias : ashley , please . stitch : come on . abby : you almost made tobias cry . i want to be you . ashley : he definitely does n't know anything about the formula for our fragrance , but that does n't mean that victor has n't found out another way . abby : maybe it was stitch . he was doing a lot of protesting earlier , and he did con the whole world . what ? ashley : please just stop with the baseless accusations . give me five minutes of quiet . i just need to think , okay ? this is really , really , really important . abby : uh , you were practically accusing him yourself earlier , but yet i 'm not allowed to say anything ? yeah , yeah . that 's reasonable . ashley : what the hell is that ? abby ? what was that ? let me have it . what was that ? abby : it might be a little bit of the product . ashley : you stole that ? ! abby : no , i - i just borrowed it . it was a sample . ashley : that 's never supposed to leave the premises , not for any circumstances ! you know that ! abby : i know , i know . i was just -- i was gon na put a little on victoria and shove her towards billy . ashley : what are you thinking ? abby : i 'm sorry . ashley : was this around victor at all ? he could have analyzed that ! abby : mom , he does n't have it , i swear . at least he did n't get it from me . ashley : could victor have had that ? tell me the truth . abby : mom , if dad has gotten in your head , then he has already won . regardless of whether or not he has the compound . ashley : you 're right . i 'm sorry . it 's just , you know , this whole thing is so big . i mean , this could be what jabot and i are known for the years to come . abby : and it will be . and i love being a part of this . i would never do anything to hurt you or this project . ashley : victor 's definitely sniffing around . i have to find out exactly what he knows . abby : if anyone can take on my father , it 's my mother . cane : basically victor is holding chancellor for ransom . jill : if i could just get my hands on katherine 's neck one last time ... cane : well , we do n't have that kind of capital , and we never will , so ... colin : never say never , my boy . jill : you know what we need ? we need to look for investors . cane : uh , investors who would interfere with our control ? colin : you only need one . and perhaps i can help . jill : how ? how would you help ? neil : he 's not even answering his phone , huh ? must be one hell of a meeting . gwen : very hush - hush . but that 's what i love about devon . he does n't brag . he does n't publicize . but you know he 's always a mover and a shaker . hilary : no , please , you take the first massage . lily : but i just feel so guilty . this was your spa trip . hilary : yeah , well , i am not the one with a job and two kids , okay ?

because if you see a crazy - eyed blonde walking around , you should stay clear of her . jack : thank you , doctor , for stopping by . dr. cutler : i 'll show myself out .

[ glasses clink ] stitch : she was out of it on the way over here . abdominal pain , dizziness , the collapse . all right . got it . kelly : ben . stitch : hey , hey , we 're at the hospital . they got you right into a room . the doc 's gon na run some tests , tox screen , ekg . kelly : my head . my stomach . stitch : i know . stitch , you 're not on staff anymore . stitch : i 'm gon na step out , kel , let them take care of you , and they will . doc 's gon na look after you like you 're his own sister , make sure you 're doing okay . [ door opens ] jack : you are the one throwing around words like `` psycho `` and `` wacko . `` phyllis : that 's kelly , not me . but i do n't see anyone siccing a doctor on her . jack : this is not about kelly . phyllis : it sure the hell is . jack : you had major head trauma and then experimental medical treatment , phyllis . you left the clinic in georgia without being checked out . you -- you waltz in here . you have n't had full medical vetting . phyllis : and i laid in that bed and got poked and prodded until they told me i was okay . can anyone say the same for kelly ? and since she is the one who set this whole thing up -- jack : and not you ? phyllis : no ! jack : even though you have pulled outrageous stunts in the past ? phyllis : in the past . this is now . today . you and me . i won . you 're mine . and i am more than happy to rub kelly 's face in that . but to waste my precious time on some complicated plan to set her up , to frame her ? no . do you really think i changed that much ? colin : you see , i do n't know anything you do n't , sweetie . we 're both exposed to the same information . my ability is just kind of knowing how to use it better . [ both laugh ] neil : so , if you hear from devon , do me a favor . tell him to give me a call , okay ? gwen : of course . neil : all right . gwen : take care , neil . neil : you , too , gwen . good seeing you . cane : okay , so if you can come up with the capital where we can acquire chancellor , by all means , please just tell us about it . neil : well , colin , are you ready to take over an empire ? colin : we 're all in the same family . and one of my investments just happens to be about to pay off big . abby : hi . ashley : hi . abby : we 're okay , right ? i mean , you did n't call me down to the lab to yell at me some more about the sample ? ashley : we 're fine . abby : good . ashley : your dad and i , however ... abby : ooh . did you and dad throw down ? was it messy ? ashley : no , we made a point of being very civil . abby : oh , so he does n't know about the compound ? ashley : not a clue . abby : how can you be so sure ? ashley : because i know him . you should have seen his eyes when i said rare root extract from central america . abby : we use an extract from central america ? ashley : no , we do n't . i set him up . i thought it was only fair . he planted a mole in here . now he 's gon na waste a lot of time and money chasing down exotic extracts , and we 're gon na go to market and amaze the world ! abby : he is gon na freak when he figures it out . ashley : he is gon na freak when he sees the quarterlies . it 's gon na make a fortune for jabot , and it 's gon na make me ceo . abby : here . i want you to see something . this is the sample . this is the sink . no one will ever know . ashley : thank you . the world gets to know what we have when we decide to tell them . and then ... abby : boom . [ both laugh ] ashley : that 's right . aww . poor victor , huh ? between this and the warehouse- development deal , that man just ca n't win . [ both laugh ] jack : yes , i love you . and yes , you have pulled stunts in the past that are beyond outrageous . i am talking about here and now and the fact that victor did n't give a damn about you or me or summer when he got involved in your case . he pulled strings , he played games to get dr. cutler to do his bidding . we need to play catch - up now to make sure there are no unintended consequences . phyllis : like what ? that my brain is scrambled ? jack : oh , come on , red . phyllis : what ? ! you know what ? okay , victor played god . you know what ? it worked . i 'm awake because victor played games and pulled strings ! it 's more than you did ! jack : okay , i fully expect victor to throw those words in my face , but for you to say those things ? phyllis : i am saying a rational fact here , like a lucid , normal person . or do you want to call me crazy again ? stitch : was it her heart ? our mother just had a heart attack . maybe it 's a family predisposition . she 's been under a lot of stress . well , it was n't stress , stitch . it was poison .

you guys have a celebration or something going on ? josh : uh ... carrie : and billy . oh , billy . our tough - talking , tee - totaling cowboy . well , you 're about to fall off that old wagon , pardner . bartender : what 'll it be ?

but not for a lady . oh , no , ladies are expendable . that is , until tonight , boys . buzz : no , i ca n't wait for the truck to get here . look , you 're an hour late already and i 'm closing early . i 'll take delivery in the morning . in the morning ! idiot . frank : who 's the real idiot , dad ? buzz : well , i ... frank : yeah , that 's right . i found it . of course it really was n't hard , being that you left it on the counter over there for everybody to find . you 've got a loaded .45 , you 've got extra ammo in the duffel bag . what the hell is wrong with you ? is there something going on i should know something about in the neighborhood , pop ? assaults ? break - ins ? anything ? buzz : no . frank : is somebody threatening your life ? buzz : frank , come on . look , you know , i made a careless mistake , okay ? i 'm guilty . get your blue shirts in here , flog me publicly . frank : what 's going on ? buzz : i 'm not crazy about being interrogated . frank : i asked you a direct question . i want to know what is going on and especially with this . buzz : i 'll get rid of the gun . after tonight , you 'll never see it again . frank : where are you going ? buzz : i 've got a few things i 've got to clean up . reva : why do n't you ask billy to come over here ? i mean , we do n't have a pool table but we do have game and pizza with anchovies . josh : this is way , way too domestic for billy . you know that . marah : well , tell him we were thinking about him anyway . josh : i will . he 'll appreciate that , i 'm sure . reva : well , maybe we can have him over another time , when pool is n't so pressing . josh : you know , the bottom line is , he 's not very good at games like this , anyway . marah : well , hey , that better not run in the family , because you are on my team . josh : oh . marah : change of plans . shayne : okay , it 's like that . well , then , you know what ? that 's fine , because you 're both going down . shuffle the cards , my man . mom , you 're on a winning team tonight . reva : do n't i know it . olivia : you can not tell phillip that emma 's alive . cassie : i understand that 's what you want , but is it what phillip needs ? olivia : phillip needs help . he needs to get better . cassie : okay , is he not well enough to hear some really good news ? olivia : no , cassie , he is n't . cassie : okay , well , i just want to see that for myself . olivia : no . listen to me . just ... just ... i know this is hard for you , okay ? it 's hard for me , too . do you think it 's easy for me to tell phillip and the whole world that my baby is dead ? i 'm not doing this for sport , cassie . i 'm doing it because emma could die if lizzie finds out she 's alive . cassie : okay . but there has to be another way for us to ... olivia : i will not compromise where my child 's life is at stake . cassie : so you 're just going to keep this illusion going for phillip ? olivia : until things are safe , yes . cassie : okay , but , you know , did you stop to think that maybe phillip is stuck in this place because he ca n't get over the grief of losing his daughter ? olivia : i know . it 's all so unfair , is n't it ? but what was fair about lizzie 's pathological jealousy of me when i was pregnant ? cassie : nothing . in her mind , she thought you were coming between her and her father . olivia : yeah , in her twisted mind , that meant i deserved to die -- or my baby did -- and she did her best to make both happen . cassie : olivia , when we let fear rule our lives , it affects everybody in it . olivia : i will protect my child no matter what . is n't that how you feel about your kids ? cassie : absolutely . but , olivia ... olivia : but what ? what ? you 've never had to do something you did n't like to keep them safe ? cassie : not like this . olivia : ( laughs bitterly ) well , you work with the cards you 're dealt . look , phillip could n't handle lizzie 's problems when he was 100 % himself . do you really think he 's going to be able to control her when he 's in the state that he 's in ? cassie : that depends how out of it he really is . olivia : cassie , do n't do this . okay ? do n't go in there , really . he needs help . he does n't need another shock to his system . cassie : olivia , i 'm going to keep that in mind . i will . olivia : cassie . cassie : look . hey . i will . hey , phillip . hey , phillip . phillip : hi . cassie : sorry . i guess you were n't expecting company . phillip : no . not tonight , no . cassie : hey , you 're married , huh ? congratulations . phillip : married again . cassie : well , that 's okay , as long as you get it right . ( laughs ) you know what i want to do ? i want to have a really big party for you guys when you get out of here . phillip : ( laughs weakly ) a coming - out party . ( laughs ) cassie : yeah , i guess , if that 's what you want to call it . ( laughs ) it 'll be fun . olivia : now , cassie , i do n't think that a party 's such a great idea . right away . i mean , i 'm going to need phillip 's attention to help me set up our new home . cassie : oh . do you know where you 're going to live ? olivia : no . no , i 'm still looking , but wherever we end up , it 's going to be the sweetest , coziest place you can imagine . phillip : for babies . cassie : babies ? olivia : james and zach will want to come visit us . phillip : it 's nice to see you . cassie : yeah . i 'm sorry it took me so long to get here . how are you , phillip ? how are you ? phillip : i 've been better . cassie : well , you 're improving , right ? phillip : yeah , i am . when i first heard about the baby , it was the most terrible pain . but olivia , she helped me through . cassie : did she ? phillip : yeah , i had no idea how awful ... well , you know . cassie : yeah . phillip : yeah . i want to tell you i 'm sorry . ray : hey . billy : father . ray : scotch ? billy : no , no . bourbon . ray : pretty color . billy : yeah . nothing like it in the whole world . ray : you really do n't want that drink . billy : i would n't bet on that , father . ray : i 'm not a betting man . billy : you 're just going for lost causes and sure things , huh ? ray : actually , i do n't believe in either . billy : well , father , we all make mistakes . that you can bet on . ray : that drink is not going to give you the comfort you 're looking for . billy : i 'll give it a shot or two on the rocks . ray : i do n't buy it . otherwise you would have downed it already . billy : well , you see , i 'm just toying with it . i 'm seeing how long i can hold out . ray : you can hold out for the rest of your life -- one day at a time . billy : well , father , we all need comfort . ray : is n't there another way you can get it ? billy : if there were , i would n't be an alcoholic . ray : maybe you need to explore other options . billy , talking through your problems wo n't give you a hangover . billy : talking . you mean like in confession ? ray : if that 's the form it takes , yeah . billy : you hear confessions from people who are n't of the persuasion ? ray : i hear confessions all the time , official and otherwise . you 'd be surprised what the sight of this collar leads people to say . especially in a bar . billy : and you have to keep it to yourself even if it 's one of these `` unofficial `` confessions ? ray : that 's right . you know , i take back what i said before . that is a sure thing . so try me , instead of that . billy : well , now , you see , father , the thing about bourbon is , it does n't get all upset and righteous when you tell it you 've done something rotten and you 've jammed your little brother along with you . that 's when you need comfort , when things have gotten as bad as they can get , you do n't think they can get any worse , and ... then they do . buzz : ( sighs ) ( gunshots ) cassie : phillip , i do n't know what you would have to apologize to me for . phillip : i had no idea how devastating it is to lose a child , and i do now . i wish i could have helped . cassie : there 's nothing you could have done . i mean , richard and i , we just had to go through it . phillip : olivia was by herself when our daughter died . olivia : that was n't your fault . i 'm the one who left town and did n't tell anybody where i was going . phillip : that 's because i would n't listen . i did n't protect you and the baby from lizzie . cassie : well , you know what ? all that 's over . phillip : hm . cassie : right ? phillip : hm . i do n't think it will ever be over . because if i had done more , if i had just ... if i trusted a little bit more , my daughter would still be alive . do you ... i think about what she would look like . cassie : you know , you 're just going to have to focus on other things . phillip : when does the pain stop ? cassie : never . but you know what ? everyone 's reality is different . what about you , olivia ? olivia : what about me , cassie ? cassie : do you still feel the pain ? do you ? do you still ache for your little girl ? ray : whatever situation you and josh are in , i doubt it 's anything i have n't heard before . billy : well , i guess we 'll never know now , will we , father ? ray : did you ever hear of reverse pride ? billy : no , i ca n't say that i have . ray : it 's when someone imagines they 're the worst kind of sinner -- beyond salvation , a lost cause . they blow their mistakes up in their mind until they lose sight of what it is they actually did . billy : well , you know , i can see people getting all puffed up with their mistakes and their sorrow . but ... well , i 'm not bragging here , but i really did something pretty terrible . and you know , it seems like it was just yesterday . ray : that this thing happened ? or that you were drunk last ? billy , i wish you 'd tell me about it . billy : i think i 'm going to pass on it . ray : you need to talk to somebody -- somebody you can trust . billy : yeah , well , i can count those on one finger , and he already knows . ray : josh ? billy : yeah . and besides him , i 've kind of run out of options , if you know what i mean . ray : you 're forgetting the guy with the franchise . with a little prayer , god can forgive anything . billy : well , that 's why he 's god . but you see , us mortals can be kind of a tall order , and there are people out there , father , who only want revenge . you get yourself hooked up with one of these people , there comes a time where it is best to do unto them before they do unto you . ray : i 'm sorry you feel that way , because that 's a really sad philosophy to live by . billy : well , maybe that 's why i 'm the drunk and you 're the priest . here . it 's a shame to let that go to waste . matter of fact , where i come from , it 's considered a sin . ed : hey , frank . is your dad around ? is he back in the kitchen or something ? frank : uh , no . i 'm sorry , you just missed him , actually . excuse me . ed : did he happen to say where he was going ? frank : no , he did not . well , actually , he mentioned something about cleaning something up . i 'm sorry . can you excuse me ? holly : hello , stranger . i believe you 've been avoiding me . ed : hey . i do owe you a call . i 'm sorry . i 'm terrible . holly : no , you 're not terrible . you 're just , what , busy and a little tired , i guess ? ed : yeah , you do n't know the half of it . do n't look at me that way . i know i look like hell . holly : well , you 're allowed . it 's not permanent , right ? ed : no . actually , i 'm hoping that things are going to change pretty soon . holly : great . why do n't you sit down ? ed : i ... holly : come on . ed : okay . holly : now , i hear that you 're taking time off from cedars . ed : well , that 's not permanent , either . holly : uh - huh . coffee ? ed : no , thank you . the last thing i need is caffeine . not a good thing when a doctor 's hands start shaking . holly : looks like this break is coming at the perfect time , huh ? i have n't seen you at any meetings . ed : well , i have n't been going . i mean , i know that 's a cardinal sin in aa , second only to drinking . which i 'm not doing . holly : good . ed : i am sorry i 've been out of touch . holly : well , it 's okay . if you wanted to call me , your would have called me , right ? maybe you 're avoiding everybody , huh ? ed : in a way . holly : well , i 've had times when i 've needed to pull back and just let everything quiet down . i mean , it 's great when you recognize what it is you need to do . ed : wow . holly : what ? ed : nothing . just acceptance . holly : oh , well , that . hey , you know , i have to fight reality enough with myself ; i try not to do it with my friends . ed : even when your friends have disappeared on you ? holly : well , i can be disappointed , but i wo n't make you wrong , okay ? ed : oh , you 've been going to a lot of meetings , have n't you ? ( laughter ) holly : you 're not the only introspective mess in this town . ( laughs ) just tell me you 're okay . ed : i ca n't go quite that far . people have been telling me that i have n't been meeting my problems . i 've been hiding them , you know ? so i can say that at least i am now going to try to meet them head - on . holly : you know , when you get on the other side of whatever it is you 're going through , maybe we could have dinner or ... ed : absolutely . go someplace nice . normal . holly : normal . aha . yeah . call me . ( laughs ) ed : maybe tomorrow . thank you . carrie : it was here . it was here that it all began . alan ... alan , you were standing there . and josh and billy , there , inseparable as usual . and ed -- ed and buzz where there . i was here , too , that night , but you did n't know that , did you ? no . maryanne and i decided to come to the fair . we thought it would be such a lark . i left her for a moment . i left her to go and get some drinks . when i looked over and i saw that the five of you were with her , laughing and talking . i thought i saw ... i thought i saw you , alan . i thought i saw you put something in the pitcher of beer , but i could n't be sure . and maryanne seemed so happy , so carefree . and then ... then you all got up and you got into a car . i came over and then i saw it . i saw that vial of drugs on the ground . i tried to follow you . i got in my car , but it was so dark and the roads were so ... and i ... i got to cutter 's bridge and i saw the skid marks . and i ... i saw the shattered railing and i knew . oh . i knew . i got out of the car and i went down the riverbank and then i saw you . i saw all five of you . and no maryanne anywhere in sight . i hid . i hid in the shadows and i watched you . i watched you while you made that pact . i watched you when you said you would forget maryanne . it would be as though she had never existed . i saw you all walk away from the river without a backward glance and i swore then that i would hunt you down , wherever you were , and i would make you pay . you were going to forget maryanne . forget maryanne ? maryanne will be seared into your memories for the rest of your life , because this time it 's your daughters ' life that 's at stake . marah : oh , you 're killing me here ! sandy : all you have to do is answer the question : what disaster happened on may 6 , 1937 , lakehurst , new jersey ? reva : what are you doing ? marah : oh , i know . it 's the crash of the hindenburg . reva : he told her ! ( cheers and arguing ) ( good - natured arguing ) marah : get out of here . josh : i have to go . i 'm sorry . shayne : yeah , that 's right . go ahead and leave while you 're behind . go ahead . josh : hey , back away . reva : i 'll walk you out . marah : things are going to be really good from now on . josh : yes , they are . i love you . marah : i love you , too . bye . josh : i love you , son . shayne : i love you , too , daddy . josh : take care . i 'm sorry , i just lost track of the time , that 's all . reva : uh - huh . well , i 'm glad you could spend at least a little time with us . josh : me , too . it was terrific . reva : good . then we 'll do it again , soon . are you sure you 're okay ? you seem distracted . josh : i 'm fine , really . reva : give billy my love . josh : i will . reva : ' night . josh : see you . carrie : after all these years , this is where it will end . olivia : you know , cassie , i think phillip needs to be cheered up , not dragged into the past . phillip : i brought it up . cassie : no , it 's okay . you know , she 's just thinking about what 's best for you . olivia : well , that 's what a wife should do , is n't it ? cassie : yeah . sure . i 'm going to go now , okay ? phillip : it was really nice seeing you , cassie . cassie : you , too , phillip . you know , about your daughter ... i really hope that your pain eases a lot sooner than mine did . and i really have a feeling that if all goes well , it should . olivia : i 'll be right back . cassie . thank you . cassie : do n't thank me , okay ? i feel like a louse . do you look at him when you go in there ? do you ? do you see him when you go in there ? because it is eating him up inside . olivia : i thought you understood . cassie : i do understand . i understand why you want to keep him in the dark . i do . but what 's going on there is not human . he is suffering . olivia : listen to me . sometimes you have to do things that hurt to protect people . you of all people should know that . cassie : do n't . do n't do that . do n't bring my kids into this , okay ? olivia : i 'm not talking about your kids . i 'm talking about what you did for danny . you know , after carmen shot him . everyone thought he was dead -- even his wife . but you knew better , did n't you , cassie ? you saved his life . but in order to keep him alive , what did you have to do ? hm ? cassie : i 've got to go . olivia : no . tell me what you had to do . you kept the truth to yourself and a few other people that you absolutely had to tell , michelle not among them . cassie : it 's not the same thing . olivia : oh , it 's the same thing . you deliberately kept someone who was heartbroken and grieving from knowing that the person they were mourning was n't dead , to protect that person from actually being killed . now , you tell me how what i 'm doing is so different . if you could have saved danny 's life any other way , would n't you have done it ? cassie : how do you think he is going to react when he finds out the truth about emma ? olivia : i do n't know , but i 'll handle it . cassie : you 're going to handle it ? olivia , he threw you out when he thought emma was n't his child . this is a thousand times worse . olivia : that 's a risk i 'll have to take . cassie : you just got married . that 's how you want to start your new life with him ? olivia : ( laughs ) cassie . maybe he 'll blow up at me . maybe he 'll try and strangle me again . who knows ? i just know this : no matter how much it hurt me that he could n't bring himself to believe that i was telling the truth about who emma 's father was , no man can hurt me that badly again . so in the meanwhile , i have to be both parents to emma , because phillip ca n't protect her from inside a sanitarium . cassie : well , you 're not giving him a chance . olivia : did you just see him ? is that a man who can protect his family ? he ca n't even get out of bed . cassie : so you 're just going to be both parents for emma . olivia : that 's right . some decisions are tough , cassie . cassie : hey , be tough . yeah . just do n't be cruel . olivia : what are you talking about ? cassie : hey . i am all for what you 're doing . i say , protect your daughter . yeah . do n't let lizzie anywhere near her and you keep her away from the spaulding mansion . olivia : yeah , i do n't really think that 's a problem . cassie : you can still let phillip know that his baby 's ... olivia : how ? how ? how do i do that and guarantee her safety ? cassie : you go get her and you bring her here , olivia . and then you trust your husband . reva : so , to the winners go the dirty dishes ? marah : ha - ha . shayne : so , who won ? was that close ? reva : loser . loser ! ( laughter ) sandy : we 're all winners here . marah : they are so gracious , are n't they ? well , this was n't so bad . sandy : no , it was actually kind of fun . marah : and you and mom seem to be getting along pretty well . sandy : the up - side of lowered expectations . marah : ah . always a good policy with her . sandy : so , do you have a pool game lined up , too , or a hot date ? marah : no , neither . sandy : so , speaking of hot dates , how 'd the valentine 's thing at the country club ... marah : uh - huh . as if you did n't know . sandy : what are you talking about ? marah : i think that it was very sweet of you to set it up so that jeffrey and i could be together . sneaky , but sweet . sandy : you 're praising in error . why would i want you to go out with mr. know- it - all o'neill ? marah : oh , brother , would you just shut up and let me thank you . take it . sandy : you 're welcome . so , was it great ? marah : it had its share of magic in a sensible , logical kind of way . sandy : wait . do n't tell me i 'd hand - delivered the guy a valentine and he was n't appreciative of it . marah : ( clears throat ) this ... the basic situation between jeffrey and i is still the same : we like each other , but we just met at the wrong time , i guess . sandy : bummer . marah : no . no . it gives me more time to work on my designs and play stupid games with my brothers . ( laughs ) besides , i have a new project that i 'm working on : i 'm going to find you a date . sandy : ah , the new family project . marah : yes . sandy : lose that idea . unless you know someone who can help me out with costumes at the school play . marah : hm . i 'll have to get back to you on that one . i am going to head out of here , so i 'll see you later . all right ? sandy : all right . bye . marah : bye , mom ! bye , shayne ! reva : where 's she going ? ( door closes ) marah : are you ready to go to the fairground ? i know , but if this memorial is what it takes to get carrie out of town , then i 'm all for it . okay , i will meet you at the museum , then . oh , do n't forget to put on that stupid ring that carrie said . okay ? bye . billy : hey . buzz : hey . billy : soldier boy . buzz : you seen anything ? billy : no , no . let me tell you , this place just gives me the willies . whoa . nice to see you right on time . josh : yeah , well , this is not the kind of thing i would be late for . who knows , maybe we 'll get lucky . maybe she wo n't show . buzz : well , she 's here . josh : next , on guiding light ... olivia : i 'm in control , cassie . not phillip , not lizzie , not the rest of the spauldings -- me . carrie : one of you girls must die to balance the scales . you must choose . | it 's the night of carrie 's revenge . each man gets ready in his own way . josh turns to reva and his family for a sense of strength and purpose . billy toys with alcohol but father ray talks him out of it . ed reveals to holly his hope for a better future which will include more time with her . at the lewis home , marah enjoys spending time with her father , while josh is reminded of all he has to fight for . meanwhile , carrie prepares by voicing her resentment towards each of the men . she is the first to arrive at the fairgrounds and she swears revenge as buzz , josh and billy arrive , tense and alert . | <s>[INST] olivia : what are you doing here ? carrie : one , two , three , four , five . they 're all together at last , maryanne . together at last . first there 's alan , the driver , the instigator . i shall have to think up something really special for him . and then there 's ed , the doctor . so close to self - destruction that all he 'll need is a little push . and josh . oh , josh , the poster boy for hearth and home . well , josh , you 've made it almost too easy for me . ( laughter and talking ) josh : hi . reva : where have you been ? they 're ganging up on me . josh : well , we ca n't have that , can we ? reva : no . come in . hurry . what -- are you sure you 're okay ? josh : yes , i 'm okay . i 'm fine , thank you . have the games begun ? reva : no , just the playing . it 's us against generation y . josh : okay . well , you know , there 's something that i should tell you , though . i ca n't really stay long . reva : what ? josh : i just have something i have to do with billy . i 'm going to meet him in , like , an hour or so . hey , sweetheart . marah : hey , dad . josh : how are you , darling ? marah : good , thanks . shayne : hey , dad . josh : hey , son . how are you ? sandy : hey , josh . you like anchovies on your pizza ? josh : it 's not going to matter because i 'm not going to be able to be here when it 's delivered . reva : well , i hope it 's not something that 's so important that you have to rush off to billy . marah : what are you doing ? you guys have a celebration or something going on ? josh : uh ... carrie : and billy . oh , billy . our tough - talking , tee - totaling cowboy . well , you 're about to fall off that old wagon , pardner . bartender : what 'll it be ? another napkin ? billy : just a club soda , please . thank you . uh , barkeep , uh ... on second , thought , i 'll have a bourbon -- the best bourbon you got . put it on the rocks and make it a double . carrie : and buzz cooper , our soldier boy . all for one and one for all . you 'd all die for each other , would n't you ? but not for a lady . oh , no , ladies are expendable . that is , until tonight , boys . buzz : no , i ca n't wait for the truck to get here . look , you 're an hour late already and i 'm closing early . i 'll take delivery in the morning . in the morning ! idiot . frank : who 's the real idiot , dad ? buzz : well , i ... frank : yeah , that 's right . i found it . of course it really was n't hard , being that you left it on the counter over there for everybody to find . you 've got a loaded .45 , you 've got extra ammo in the duffel bag . what the hell is wrong with you ? is there something going on i should know something about in the neighborhood , pop ? assaults ? break - ins ? anything ? buzz : no . frank : is somebody threatening your life ? buzz : frank , come on . look , you know , i made a careless mistake , okay ? i 'm guilty . get your blue shirts in here , flog me publicly . frank : what 's going on ? buzz : i 'm not crazy about being interrogated . frank : i asked you a direct question . i want to know what is going on and especially with this . buzz : i 'll get rid of the gun . after tonight , you 'll never see it again . frank : where are you going ? buzz : i 've got a few things i 've got to clean up . reva : why do n't you ask billy to come over here ? i mean , we do n't have a pool table but we do have game and pizza with anchovies . josh : this is way , way too domestic for billy . you know that . marah : well , tell him we were thinking about him anyway . josh : i will . he 'll appreciate that , i 'm sure . reva : well , maybe we can have him over another time , when pool is n't so pressing . josh : you know , the bottom line is , he 's not very good at games like this , anyway . marah : well , hey , that better not run in the family , because you are on my team . josh : oh . marah : change of plans . shayne : okay , it 's like that . well , then , you know what ? that 's fine , because you 're both going down . shuffle the cards , my man . mom , you 're on a winning team tonight . reva : do n't i know it . olivia : you can not tell phillip that emma 's alive . cassie : i understand that 's what you want , but is it what phillip needs ? olivia : phillip needs help . he needs to get better . cassie : okay , is he not well enough to hear some really good news ? olivia : no , cassie , he is n't . cassie : okay , well , i just want to see that for myself . olivia : no . listen to me . just ... just ... i know this is hard for you , okay ? it 's hard for me , too . do you think it 's easy for me to tell phillip and the whole world that my baby is dead ? i 'm not doing this for sport , cassie . i 'm doing it because emma could die if lizzie finds out she 's alive . cassie : okay . but there has to be another way for us to ... olivia : i will not compromise where my child 's life is at stake . cassie : so you 're just going to keep this illusion going for phillip ? olivia : until things are safe , yes . cassie : okay , but , you know , did you stop to think that maybe phillip is stuck in this place because he ca n't get over the grief of losing his daughter ? olivia : i know . it 's all so unfair , is n't it ? but what was fair about lizzie 's pathological jealousy of me when i was pregnant ? cassie : nothing . in her mind , she thought you were coming between her and her father . olivia : yeah , in her twisted mind , that meant i deserved to die -- or my baby did -- and she did her best to make both happen . cassie : olivia , when we let fear rule our lives , it affects everybody in it . olivia : i will protect my child no matter what . is n't that how you feel about your kids ? cassie : absolutely . but , olivia ... olivia : but what ? what ? you 've never had to do something you did n't like to keep them safe ? cassie : not like this . olivia : ( laughs bitterly ) well , you work with the cards you 're dealt . look , phillip could n't handle lizzie 's problems when he was 100 % himself . do you really think he 's going to be able to control her when he 's in the state that he 's in ? cassie : that depends how out of it he really is . olivia : cassie , do n't do this . okay ? do n't go in there , really . he needs help . he does n't need another shock to his system . cassie : olivia , i 'm going to keep that in mind . i will . olivia : cassie . cassie : look . hey . i will . hey , phillip . hey , phillip . phillip : hi . cassie : sorry . i guess you were n't expecting company . phillip : no . not tonight , no . cassie : hey , you 're married , huh ? congratulations . phillip : married again . cassie : well , that 's okay , as long as you get it right . ( laughs ) you know what i want to do ? i want to have a really big party for you guys when you get out of here . phillip : ( laughs weakly ) a coming - out party . ( laughs ) cassie : yeah , i guess , if that 's what you want to call it . ( laughs ) it 'll be fun . olivia : now , cassie , i do n't think that a party 's such a great idea . right away . i mean , i 'm going to need phillip 's attention to help me set up our new home . cassie : oh . do you know where you 're going to live ? olivia : no . no , i 'm still looking , but wherever we end up , it 's going to be the sweetest , coziest place you can imagine . phillip : for babies . cassie : babies ? olivia : james and zach will want to come visit us . phillip : it 's nice to see you . cassie : yeah . i 'm sorry it took me so long to get here . how are you , phillip ? how are you ? phillip : i 've been better . cassie : well , you 're improving , right ? phillip : yeah , i am . when i first heard about the baby , it was the most terrible pain . but olivia , she helped me through . cassie : did she ? phillip : yeah , i had no idea how awful ... well , you know . cassie : yeah . phillip : yeah . i want to tell you i 'm sorry . ray : hey . billy : father . ray : scotch ? billy : no , no . bourbon . ray : pretty color . billy : yeah . nothing like it in the whole world . ray : you really do n't want that drink . billy : i would n't bet on that , father . ray : i 'm not a betting man . billy : you 're just going for lost causes and sure things , huh ? ray : actually , i do n't believe in either . billy : well , father , we all make mistakes . that you can bet on . ray : that drink is not going to give you the comfort you 're looking for . billy : i 'll give it a shot or two on the rocks . ray : i do n't buy it . otherwise you would have downed it already . billy : well , you see , i 'm just toying with it . i 'm seeing how long i can hold out . ray : you can hold out for the rest of your life -- one day at a time . billy : well , father , we all need comfort . ray : is n't there another way you can get it ? billy : if there were , i would n't be an alcoholic . ray : maybe you need to explore other options . billy , talking through your problems wo n't give you a hangover . billy : talking . you mean like in confession ? ray : if that 's the form it takes , yeah . billy : you hear confessions from people who are n't of the persuasion ? ray : i hear confessions all the time , official and otherwise . you 'd be surprised what the sight of this collar leads people to say . especially in a bar . billy : and you have to keep it to yourself even if it 's one of these `` unofficial `` confessions ? ray : that 's right . you know , i take back what i said before . that is a sure thing . so try me , instead of that . billy : well , now , you see , father , the thing about bourbon is , it does n't get all upset and righteous when you tell it you 've done something rotten and you 've jammed your little brother along with you . that 's when you need comfort , when things have gotten as bad as they can get , you do n't think they can get any worse , and ... then they do . buzz : ( sighs ) ( gunshots ) cassie : phillip , i do n't know what you would have to apologize to me for . phillip : i had no idea how devastating it is to lose a child , and i do now . i wish i could have helped . cassie : there 's nothing you could have done . i mean , richard and i , we just had to go through it . phillip : olivia was by herself when our daughter died . olivia : that was n't your fault . i 'm the one who left town and did n't tell anybody where i was going . phillip : that 's because i would n't listen . i did n't protect you and the baby from lizzie . cassie : well , you know what ? all that 's over . phillip : hm . cassie : right ? phillip : hm . i do n't think it will ever be over . because if i had done more , if i had just ... if i trusted a little bit more , my daughter would still be alive . do you ... i think about what she would look like . cassie : you know , you 're just going to have to focus on other things . phillip : when does the pain stop ? cassie : never . but you know what ? everyone 's reality is different . what about you , olivia ? olivia : what about me , cassie ? cassie : do you still feel the pain ? do you ? do you still ache for your little girl ? ray : whatever situation you and josh are in , i doubt it 's anything i have n't heard before . billy : well , i guess we 'll never know now , will we , father ? ray : did you ever hear of reverse pride ? billy : no , i ca n't say that i have . ray : it 's when someone imagines they 're the worst kind of sinner -- beyond salvation , a lost cause . they blow their mistakes up in their mind until they lose sight of what it is they actually did . billy : well , you know , i can see people getting all puffed up with their mistakes and their sorrow . but ... well , i 'm not bragging here , but i really did something pretty terrible . and you know , it seems like it was just yesterday . ray : that this thing happened ? or that you were drunk last ? billy , i wish you 'd tell me about it . billy : i think i 'm going to pass on it . ray : you need to talk to somebody -- somebody you can trust . billy : yeah , well , i can count those on one finger , and he already knows . ray : josh ? billy : yeah . and besides him , i 've kind of run out of options , if you know what i mean . ray : you 're forgetting the guy with the franchise . with a little prayer , god can forgive anything . billy : well , that 's why he 's god . but you see , us mortals can be kind of a tall order , and there are people out there , father , who only want revenge . you get yourself hooked up with one of these people , there comes a time where it is best to do unto them before they do unto you . ray : i 'm sorry you feel that way , because that 's a really sad philosophy to live by . billy : well , maybe that 's why i 'm the drunk and you 're the priest . here . it 's a shame to let that go to waste . matter of fact , where i come from , it 's considered a sin . ed : hey , frank . is your dad around ? is he back in the kitchen or something ? frank : uh , no . i 'm sorry , you just missed him , actually . excuse me . ed : did he happen to say where he was going ? frank : no , he did not . well , actually , he mentioned something about cleaning something up . i 'm sorry . can you excuse me ? holly : hello , stranger . i believe you 've been avoiding me . ed : hey . i do owe you a call . i 'm sorry . i 'm terrible . holly : no , you 're not terrible . you 're just , what , busy and a little tired , i guess ? ed : yeah , you do n't know the half of it . do n't look at me that way . i know i look like hell . holly : well , you 're allowed . it 's not permanent , right ? ed : no . actually , i 'm hoping that things are going to change pretty soon . holly : great . why do n't you sit down ? ed : i ... holly : come on . ed : okay . holly : now , i hear that you 're taking time off from cedars . ed : well , that 's not permanent , either . holly : uh - huh . coffee ? ed : no , thank you . the last thing i need is caffeine . not a good thing when a doctor 's hands start shaking . holly : looks like this break is coming at the perfect time , huh ? i have n't seen you at any meetings . ed : well , i have n't been going . i mean , i know that 's a cardinal sin in aa , second only to drinking . which i 'm not doing . holly : good . ed : i am sorry i 've been out of touch . holly : well , it 's okay . if you wanted to call me , your would have called me , right ? maybe you 're avoiding everybody , huh ? ed : in a way . holly : well , i 've had times when i 've needed to pull back and just let everything quiet down . i mean , it 's great when you recognize what it is you need to do . ed : wow . holly : what ? ed : nothing . just acceptance . holly : oh , well , that . hey , you know , i have to fight reality enough with myself ; i try not to do it with my friends . ed : even when your friends have disappeared on you ? holly : well , i can be disappointed , but i wo n't make you wrong , okay ? ed : oh , you 've been going to a lot of meetings , have n't you ? ( laughter ) holly : you 're not the only introspective mess in this town .
