[ sonny sighs ] carly : you know , all this is actually starting to make some strange sense . courtney walked in on jason with sam once . sam had her dress half off . she claimed that she spilled some wine on it . courtney suspected something else was going on -- not that they were sleeping together , but that sam was trying . and now she ends up pregnant with jason 's child ; something that courtney never will be ? believe me , if this is jason 's baby , she is going to use that kid to jerk jason around for the rest of his life . [ scene_break ] jason : you gave me that whole song and dance about how hard it 's going to be for everyone concerned and the only right decision was to leave town , sam , and i respected that and i knew sonny would be furious . he was probably going to tell carly the truth when you showed up . sam : this whole thing is your idea , jason ! why are you so mad now ? jason : because i do n't like to be jerked around , sam ! sam : ok ! ok , fine , i can fix this . i would be more than happy to go across the hall and tell carly the truth , then .

[ scene_break ] skye : oh , emily . emily : hey . skye : thank you for getting here so fast . emily : what 's going on ? skye : well , let 's see -- laura 's missing , luke 's imploding , and lucky 's about to go up in flames with his father -- that is unless you can put him in your care now , making sure lucky 's ok is the only thing that i can do for luke . emily : what do you suggest ? skye : get him out of town , ok ? use sneaky , underhanded tactics -- i do n't care . just please get him out of harm 's way ? emily : any chance you can do the same for luke ? [ scene_break ] ric : look , lucky has already obstructed justice . now he 's compounded the offense by refusing to leave the station and he 's trying to coerce skye into retracting her statement against laura . alexis : a plea for leniency toward a desperately ill woman hardly constitutes a felony . ric : ms. davis , you ever heard of witness tampering ? it 's in basic law 101 . i 'm sure you 'll find it 's very enlightening . alexis : all right , all right , all right , already ! just tell me what you need to let him go . ric : i want him to complete his leave of absence as he already started and i also want him to stay out of the ross duncan investigation . lucky : ok , can i say something here ? ric and alexis : no . alexis : consider it done . ric : i 'm not finished . i also want somebody to be responsible for lucky 's behavior . alexis : ah , there . how about emily quartermaine ? she 's a very nice girl . will you please keep him out of trouble ? emily : i can do that . alexis : there . satisfied ? ric : take the cuffs off .

[ scene_break ] carly : do you wish that sam was having your baby instead of jason 's ? sonny : carly , it all worked out best for everyone . carly : except for jason and courtney . [ sonny sighs ] carly : you know , all this is actually starting to make some strange sense . courtney walked in on jason with sam once . sam had her dress half off . she claimed that she spilled some wine on it . courtney suspected something else was going on -- not that they were sleeping together , but that sam was trying . and now she ends up pregnant with jason 's child ; something that courtney never will be ? believe me , if this is jason 's baby , she is going to use that kid to jerk jason around for the rest of his life . [ scene_break ] jason : you gave me that whole song and dance about how hard it 's going to be for everyone concerned and the only right decision was to leave town , sam , and i respected that and i knew sonny would be furious . he was probably going to tell carly the truth when you showed up . sam : this whole thing is your idea , jason ! why are you so mad now ? jason : because i do n't like to be jerked around , sam ! sam : ok ! ok , fine , i can fix this . i would be more than happy to go across the hall and tell carly the truth , then . [ scene_break ] georgie : you know , i do n't mean to be a spoiler or anything , but i really do n't want you to get your hopes up , because you almost caught this girl the other night when she came here . so what if she never comes back ? or she does come back and you catch her singing on this , so what ? we do n't know her name ; we do n't where to find her , if ned is even interested . dillon : georgie i thought you were n't going to be a spoiler . georgie : sorry , i ca n't help it . i think things through and what if this woman / girl -- dillon : girl . girl , i 'm pretty sure . her voice sounded young . georgie : what if she does n't want a singing career ? dillon : well , then why come to a studio in the middle of the night to sing ? i mean , why not belt it in the shower or buy a karaoke machine ? maybe she wants to , but she 's too insecure . either way , what does it matter ? what have we got to lose by getting her voice on tape ? georgie : well , nothing , i guess . dillon : ok . so if i 'm wrong , we spend a whole lot of time tomorrow listening to hours of nothing . but if i 'm right , i could be taking my first step towards redeeming myself with l & b by finding a new superstar . [ scene_break ] carly : you probably feel betrayed by what jason did to you , right ? well , why do n't you take yourself out of it and think about jason for once . he was probably hurt and vulnerable because of the breakup with courtney , and then sam took advantage and now she trapped him . so why do n't you be the friend to jason that he always is to you and just put aside your hurt pride and help him ? sonny : ok , first of all , it 's not like i was in love with sam , anyway . i 'm not turning against jason . i mean , i just need a minute -- i need a minute to just let -- let this settle . carly : well , maybe jason actually just did you a favor . maybe he just proved to you that sam was n't worth any of the time that you spent on her . and i hope she 's as greedy as i think she is . sonny : what does that mean ? carly : well , i ca n't imagine that she 's got much interest in wanting to be a mother , so maybe -- maybe once the baby is born , jason can pay her off to leave town . and then we can all raise the baby together as one big , happy , extended family . [ scene_break ] jason : it would be selfish to tell carly the truth now . i mean , trust me , it 'd be easier on me , harder on everyone else . michael and morgan need sonny and carly back together . and you , you ca n't run forever , ok ? if you 're going to settle down with this baby , you are going to need someone to help , someone to care about that baby as much as you do . i 'll be that person . sam : it 's not fair , jason , but i am -- i am very grateful . jason : ok , and one other thing , and it 's very important -- if this is even going to work , we need to learn to trust each other , ok ? the baby is going to need it . sam : ok . i agree . jason : ok . sam : where are you going ? jason : courtney needs to know . so that means i 'm going to have to look her in face , i 'm going to have to lie to her . i never thought i 'd ever , ever do that to her , but i do n't have a choice . [ scene_break ] courtney : ok , that 's -- that 's far enough . jax : whoa , hold on a second . you said that i could walk you home . courtney : i live , like , a half a block from here , jax . maybe you should quit while you 're ahead . jax : if i did n't know better , i 'd think that you were trying to dodge a good- night kiss . courtney : the thought had crossed my mind , yes . jax : who are you afraid of ? me or yourself ? [ scene_break ] alexis : if you release luke on bond tonight , it might go a long way in mitigating some of the charges that i intend to press against you . ric : you know what ? i can see now where you got your stellar reputation . you can bluff with the best of them , ca n't you ? but you know what i can do ? call . luke stays incarcerated for the foreseeable future . skye : alexis is pulling out all the stops at the moment , but ric is n't feeling very cooperative toward you right now -- something about a previous altercation ? luke : nah , forget lansing . laura 's waiting for me . you have to help me get out of here . skye : absolutely not . [ scene_break ] [ horse whinnies ] lucky : you know what , emily , thank you so much for dealing with ric . i just do n't have time to waste right now . emily : no , no , no , wait , wait , wait . the only person with any hope of getting through to laura is luke , all right ? all you can do for either one of them is just to stay out of the way . lucky : emily , nikolas would want me to help our mom . emily : nikolas would want you to help me .

[ chuckles ] deimos : mm . nicole : you know , still , just sitting here like this , it almost feels like this whole thing never happened . deimos : oh , it happened . nicole : and you 've got the scars to prove it . does it still hurt ? deimos : nah . i 'll get over it . nicole : will you ever get over killing xander ? deimos : well , like i told you , i will do whatever it takes to keep you safe . what was that for ? nicole : keeping your promise . blanca : you probably should n't even be out after what you 've been through . dario : i 'm fine , thanks to your healing touch . besides , i wanted to make sure you could handle my moves sitting down before i took you dancing . nicole : hi . i need to talk to you . dario : in case you did n't notice , i 'm not alone . nicole : well , i 'm sorry . this ca n't wait . dario : i 'm surprised you 'd ditch your date to interrupt mine . nicole : okay , i told deimos this would n't take long . first of all , i just start by saying that i 'm glad you 're okay . dario : look , i know there 's something on your mind , unless you 're -- unless you 're trying to get me away from my date . nicole : i am so not jealous . and i wanted to talk to you because i know you went behind my back and took a job with deimos to spy on chloe . dario : now wait a minute . nicole : no , no , no , do n't even try to deny it , because i know you broke into her place . deimos already admitted it . dario : that guy 's got a lot of nerve ratting me out . nicole : he did n't rat you out . he only spilled after i told him i over heard you two talking . dario : okay , so , you 're mad at me because i spied on chloe , but you only knew about that because you were spying on me ? i trusted you . i thought you were a decent guy . dario : i am . i was only keeping an eye on deimos for you . nicole : deimos said the same thing . dario : oh , look at that . for once , the guy 's telling the truth . and , for the record , i think if you keep seeing him , you 're gon na get hurt . as your friend , i was trying to prevent that . nicole : thank you . i can take care of myself . and you know what ? if you and i are gon na continue to be friends , you need to respect my choices . dario : are you happy ? nicole : i am . dario : okay , then . that 's all i want . deimos : and that makes two of us . is there anything going on out here i should know about ? then we wad it up to make it nice and soft . dario : nicole did n't like me working for you . nicole : no . what i did n't like was you spying on chloe and breaking into her hotel room . deimos : well , i believe we 've already been through this . dario was only doing what he was paid to do . nicole : that does n't make it right . deimos : i thought chloe was lying about her baby not being mine . now that i know i was wrong , i admit that i crossed a line . i 'm just hoping in time everyone , including chloe , will see that my intentions were pure , even if my methods were n't exactly so . chloe : philip and i -- we have not been together , and the father of this baby is deimos . nicole : fine . let 's just go back inside . deimos : all right , i would love to , but philip just called . he wants to see me down at the docks . so , look , why do n't you go inside ? i 've already paid for breakfast . sit and enjoy , all right ? i 'll see you later . nicole : go ahead . say it . dario : are we done -- nicole : you still think you 're right about deimos . dario : are we done here ? nicole : no . dario : i 'd like to get back to my date . nicole : well , she is beautiful . [ scoffs ] [ dramatic music ] maggie : it was so nice of you to make a house call , dr. chen . would you stay for a cup of coffee or tea ? chen : oh , thank you , but i really must go . victor : but we have n't discussed how maggie 's doing : if she 's on schedule , if there 's anything , any exercises she should be doing to speed things up . chen : your wife has made remarkable progress . however , i do have one concern . philip : after all these years , i believe titan knows your shipping needs better than dimera , and we 're willing to do whatever it takes -- all right , well , call before you make the final decision -- all right , then i 'll call -- [ breathes deeply ] deimos : another defector ? philip : forget bringing in new business . we can barely hold on to what we have , thanks to brady 's bungled raid . deimos : i was really hoping the panic would 've died down by now . philip : if anything , it 's growing , which is why i think we should call in the big guns . deimos : no . i told you victor already has enough on his plate right now getting maggie settled back in . philip : but he established these relationships . he has a long history with the players . deimos : and if he wanted to be involved , he would n't have authorized me to represent titan in his absence . philip : even though you do n't officially work there . deimos : and neither do you . but that has n't stopped you from trying to keep it up and running . philip : i 've been thinking maybe i should be back in an official capacity . deimos : well , that 's fine with me . but considering victor 's the one that threw you out , i 'm not sure how badly he wants you back in right now . philip : that 's why i asked you to meet . you said yourself you caused the riff between me and victor . you could make up for that by convincing him to give me a second chance . talk up my business expertise , that i 'd be a real asset . especially now with this recent crisis , i think that the most important thing 's -- deimos : no . absolutely not . blanca : nope ! oney on me . dario : what is that about , anyway ? blanca : well , a guy who pays a girl 's way makes assumptions . guillermo : hola , blanca . blanca : what the hell are you doing here ? philip : wow . did n't expect that response . deimos : you 're taking this the wrong way . philip : not too many ways to take the word `` no . `` deimos : i think you going back to titan is a great idea . but you said yourself , i 'm the one responsible for victor throwing you out . now , me going to him on your behalf would only remind him of that fact . and it might even cause him to wonder if the two of us are teaming up against him again . philip : you have a point . deimos : yeah , right ? now , i 've already gone on your behalf and pushed the envelope , inviting you to move into the mansion . now , i did that in the hopes that the two of you under the same roof might force a reconciliation . philip : has n't worked so far . deimos : yeah , all right . but now , if you go to victor and ask to be part of the family business again , it might just do that . at the very least , it could reopen the lines of communication between the two of you . but just do n't expect victor to jump on board right away . philip : the more i think about it , the more i wonder if trying to repair what 's broken between me and my dad is nothing but a big waste of time . victor : i thought you said she was doing fine . chen : it 's true . by all accounts , there 's no reason why she would need her wheelchair or crutches . she seems to have completely healed . physically , that is . psychologically , there seems to be a block . maggie : are you saying i want to use this chair ? chen : not on a conscious level , no . maggie : there is nothing that i want more than to stand on my own . victor : maybe we should give it another shot . would you do that for me ? maggie : oh -- brady : packing breakfast was a good idea , because all that indoor celebrating kind of got me ravenous , and -- theresa : oh . brady : oh , hey , this is -- this is perfect . this is nice . perfect spot right here , okay ? theresa : all right . brady : here . that 's you , my beautiful bride - to - be with my beautiful son . this is the perfect spot . have a seat . theresa : you 're in a funny mood . brady : i 'm in a good mood . theresa : [ laughing ] okay . brady : it 's a good day . it 's a perfect day . i have my perfect bride - to - be . i have my perfect son . i have my perfect wedding that we 're going to plan . i love it . life 's good . theresa : well , there 's not really that much to plan . i mean , everything was already in place before -- you know , before it fell apart . brady : you know what the most perfect thing about it is ? theresa : hm ? brady : there 's no xander or anybody else that 's going to ruin it for us . remember that . theresa : true . brady : but you 're still scared , and i can tell . theresa : it 's not that i 'm scared . it 's just -- i guess i was just traumatized by everything that happened . i mean , and who would n't be ? so , you know , i 'm just a little gun - shy . brady : completely . hey , it 's understandable . but remember : he 's gone . xander 's gone . and he ca n't ever bother you again . he ca n't touch you . theresa : right -- yeah , i know that , yeah . brady : so , why do n't we just agree that that -- that attack and everything that happened -- it does n't define who we are . it does n't dictate our happiness , okay ? i know you ca n't forget about it . i do n't expect you to forget , but i can help you move on . we can move on -- theresa : brady , i ca n't move on from that . we ca n't . i just -- not until i tell you the truth . dario : wait a minute -- is this the guy ? the guy from your past who was trying to track you down ? the one you never wanted to see again ? blanca : and i still do n't . you have to leave . guillermo : oh , eres un poco emocional , querida . blanca : i ca n't believe you had the nerves to follow me here . guillermo : hey , you left without saying good - bye . i 've been going crazy looking for you . blanca : you were already crazy . guillermo : look , i know i messed up . blanca : i caught you in bed with another woman . guillermo : you do n't know the whole story . blanca : i know enough . guillermo : y un poco de apoyo , amigo ? dario : you 're on your own ... amigo . guillermo : give me a chance -- blanca : do n't touch me . guillermo : to explain . blanca : only if you explain why you were also in bed with a major drug cartel . you know what ? on second thought , do n't explain anything . just go . guillermo : hey , you should watch what you say . blanca : do n't touch me . guillermo : you know that . dario : are you gon na respect what blanca 's asking you , or are you and i gon na have a problem ? theresa : i never meant to hurt you . brady : you never meant to hurt me ? what -- talk to me . what -- what are you talking about ? what `` truth `` are you talking about ? theresa : look , xander ... trying to rape me did n't happen . brady : i do n't understand . theresa : i made it up . brady : you lied -- what -- why would you lie about something like that ? theresa : because of you , brady -- because i wanted you to care about me , okay ? and i wanted you to want to protect me , and when i said that xander attacked me , you did all of that . brady : so , he went to prison for a crime that he did n't commit ? theresa : yes , i know . yes , and i hate myself for it . brady : um ... [ sighs ] theresa : brady , i just -- i decided to come clean , okay ? because , well , i just -- i figured that if i told you , and you hate me , or you decide that you ca n't forgive me , then i 'm gon na have to deal with that . but i guess it 's better than living every day wondering and just expecting the worst to happen . brady : theresa , i hate that you lied . i really do . but xander was on his way to prison with or without you . theresa : yeah , i know , and look , he should 've gone to prison for what he did to eric and nicole , but i should not have lied to you , brady -- brady : no , you should n't have lied , theresa , but here 's the deal -- here 's the deal : you were a different person back then . hell , i 've done so much in my past that i 'm not proud of . i 've hurt so many people that i ca -- i do n't even want to think about or remember those times , but you -- the reason i 'm a different person is because of you . because of what we have in our relationship , and tate and our family . i do n't like what you did . i do n't . but i 'm not gon na stop loving you because of something . theresa : and i 'm not gon na stop love you . ever , ever , ever . and i promise you that i 'm not gon na keep any more secrets from you , okay ? 'cause i 'm never ever gon na risk losing you . brady : well , good , because i 'm in this for the long haul , so you 're stuck with me . theresa : mm . [ laughs ] till death do us part ? brady : whatever . maybe beyond that . who knows ? theresa : yeah , who knows ? julie : i 'm sorry to intrude , victor , but i just got a call from maggie , and she sounded so upset , but she would n't tell me why . victor : i 'm glad you came . come on in . julie : is she here ? i 'll just go up and see her , or wherever she is -- victor : actually , her doctor just left . julie : bad news ? victor : no , actually , it was good . according to dr. chen , she should be able to walk on her own . julie : that 's wonderful . victor : except she ca n't . the doctor thinks it 's some sort of a mental block . julie : that may make sense , given her history . victor : what are you talking about ? julie : oh , victor , you should know ... years ago , she had a surgery to regain the use of her legs , and afterwards , the doctor said it was a medical success . but she still could n't walk . victor : well , did they ever find out why ? julie : it was quite simple , really . she was afraid . victor : what ? falling ? reinjuring herself ? what ? julie : nothing so logical . you know , maggie , for all her beauty and her accomplishments , she has issues with self - esteem . and back then , she thought she 'd lose mickey to another woman . i do n't know . maybe she thought that if she was completely dependent on him , he would n't stray . victor : that 's never been an issue with us . julie : i -- i 'm sure you 're faithful to her . but that does n't mean that maggie is n't afraid of losing you . unconsciously , this may be her way to deal with her fear . victor : you 're saying she 's literally afraid of standing on her own ? julie : i 'm not a psychiatrist . i 've just known her and loved her for decades . and that does make sense . so , victor , you have to find a way to make her feel safe again . victor : i tell her all the time how much i love her , how much i need her . julie : i bet she hears every word , and understands in her mind that you 're not going anywhere . but she 's got to feel it , victor , deep in her heart . victor : so , she 's still afraid that i 'll leave ? when this happened before , what did mickey do ? julie : he gave her a pair of red dancing shoes , a symbol of his love and of their future together . i already tried that . obviously it did n't work . damn , i feel so helpless . julie : victor , you 're hardly that . you need to look into your heart . it will tell you how to reach hers . deimos : victor can certainly be a difficult man to reach . philip : you 're telling me that ? deimos : that does n't mean you just walk away . honestly , i would give anything to have the chance you have right now to make things right . i resented victor for being the apple of our father 's eye . i was considered nothing but damaged goods , a mistake my father was constantly forced to acknowledge . philip : i 'm sorry about that . deimos : mm . you know , it was n't until i finally realized that i was a worthwhile person that i was able to rise above my father 's low opinion of me , toss away all that anger , finally allow myself to get close to someone . for the first time in my life , i feel like love is n't a weapon , something to be withheld or exchanged for obedience . philip : sounds like making peace with your past really got you in touch with your feelings . deimos : my past was n't the only thing that did that . bottom line , philip , the bond between a father and son -- it 's way too important to dismiss so lightly . between us , i think that was the real reason why i was so desperately wanting chloe 's baby to be mine . i thought that if i could be the father i never had to my own son , then maybe finally i 'd be able to heal all those old wounds . guillermo : i 'd like to see you try and make me leave . dario : do n't think i can ? i make my living throwing losers twice your size out of bars . guillermo : yeah ? bring it on . blanca : stop ! guillermo , you need to leave and never come back , okay ? guillermo : you do n't mean that . blanca : you and i are over . there 's nothing for you here . guillermo : we 'll see about that . blanca : this town has enough . the people here are not gon na put up with your stupid things . guillermo : you know i 'm not scared of the cops ... on either side of the border . blanca : no ? what about your boss , hm ? are you scared of him ? what do you think he will do when i tell him you were getting a little bit for yourself ? guillermo : i told you i did n't do that . blanca : and i told you i have proof . and i kept it just in case you have trouble getting a `` no `` for an answer . we both know mateo is not the type of boss to forgive and forget . philip : you 're home . victor : where else would i be ? philip : no , i just thought -- [ clears throat ] never mind . since you are here , there 's something i 'd like to talk to you about . victor : not now , philip . philip : of course not . no . what was i thinking ? what did maggie 's doctor say ? victor : how 'd you know dr. chen was here ? philip : she was coming up the drive when i left earlier . is everything okay ? victor : no , everything is not okay . philip : want to talk about it ? victor : dr. chen seems to think that maggie is completely healed , that she should be able to walk on her own . philip : that 's great , is n't it ? victor : yes , it would be if she could . ca n't seem to -- does n't seem to want to . i do n't know . julie thinks it 's -- she thinks that it 's because of her fear . philip : fear of what ? victor : fear of losing me . apparently , i have to find some way of showing her that she has no need to be afraid , reassure her that i 'll be here no matter what . philip : i know how much you love maggie . i 'm surprised she does n't already know that . victor : so am i . but apparently i have to do more . philip : showing your love is n't as hard as it sounds . could be as simple as a shift in thinking . being willing to make a small change like that could mean the world to someone . victor : it 's not exactly a small change . i think it might work . philip : want to run it by me ? victor : i ... i want to be able to spend more time with her . of course , that means i 'll have to take a step back at titan , give somebody else in the family a chance to run it . nicole : chloe , please pick up the phone this time . chloe : hey , this is chloe . you know what to do . nicole : i do n't want to leave a message ! [ beeps ] nicole : chloe , hi . it 's me again . i mean , i do n't know why you 're not returning my phone calls , but i really need to talk to you . it 's about the baby . and i know i promised i would keep your secret , but the more i think about it , the stronger i feel that deimos needs to know the truth . nicole : i need you to call me back now . [ beeps ] deimos : nicole ? what are you doing here ? maggie : you must be disappointed in me . victor : no , that is something that i could never be . i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry i snapped at you and dr. chen earlier . i just do n't know what 's wrong with me . victor : there is nothing wrong with you . you are perfect . why else would i be wanting to spend all my time with you ? maggie : that 's very sweet . victor : no , i 'm serious . i 've made a decision . i 'm going to retire from titan , and spend all my time making you better . maggie : but you ca n't do that . victor : of course i can . it 's my company . i can do whatever i want . god knows there are enough viable candidates standing in the wings waiting to take my place . maggie : you really mean it ? victor : i only want one focus in my life right now , and that focus is you . i will move heaven and earth to make you well . you 'll see . soon enough , we 'll be dancing the night away just the way we used to . maggie : well , maybe we can try a little dancing now . victor : do you feel up to it ? maggie : well ... [ sobs ] my rock . you 're my rock . [ theresa laughing ] brady : god , at this rate , he 's gon na sleep through halloween . theresa : oh , shoot , i forgot to get him a costume ... i -- brady : baby , you do n't have to get him a costume . he 's only -- he 's not into halloween yet . theresa : i know , i know , but it would be so cute , and you know what , i saw a pumpkin costume in one of these windows , but they 're all boarded up . brady : you 're gon na dress him as a pumpkin ? theresa : yeah , would n't that be so cute ? brady : eh ... no . theresa : i just -- i -- oh , which store was it ? philip : i thought about you three this morning , how much i 'm gon na miss you guys when you move into your own place . brady : [ clears throat ] yeah , you 're gon na miss being woken up by my son every morning when he 's crying , right ? philip : are you kidding ? i 'm gon na miss that sound like crazy . i 'm not a big fan of quiet . brady : well , it 's never gon na be all that quiet , you know . philip : yeah , i suppose that 's true . i guess victor 's gon na be in the mansion a lot more now . brady : now that maggie 's out of the hospital , i figured he 'd be at titan full- time now . philip : not if he retires . brady : [ laughs ] did he actually say that ? he also said maybe it was time to give someone in the family a chance to run the company . brady : did he mention who that someone might be ? philip : no . but i plan to convince him that i 'm the man for the job . any good word you could offer up on my behalf would be much appreciated . brady : okay . theresa : mm - hm . philip : okay , that 's the second look between you two . am i being paranoid , or is there something to it ? brady : no , you 're not par -- philip , come on . you 're not the -- not the only viable candidate here , all right ? philip : well , who -- wait , not you . brady : yeah , maybe me , philip . i did run the company for years . pretty smoothly , i might add . philip : and you spent one fateful night tearing it apart . brady : why do n't you -- why do n't you let that thing go ? let it go , okay ? philip : your bad decision has cost titan millions already . do you honestly think my father 's gon na trust you with the top spot after that fiasco ? brady : you know , the last time -- if i recall , the last time you were at the top spot of the company , you ended up stabbing victor in the back . am i wrong about that ? theresa : no . philip : at least i did n't leave in a huff because he did n't like my girlfriend . brady : you 're such a son of a -- theresa : okay , you know what , you guys , just stop , stop , stop . you 're gon na wake up tate . look , good luck , philip . brady : yeah . hey , may the best man win , right ? philip : right back at you , brady . brady : why do i think this is gon na get ugly ? theresa : you know what ? no one deserves to be ceo of titan more than you do , and i 'm sure that when the time comes , victor 's gon na see that too , all right ? brady : yeah . i 'm glad you 're sure . theresa : hey , i am . 'cause you know what ? brady : what ? theresa : if we can get through everything that we 've been through with no problem , we can make all of our dreams come true together . guillermo : you talk big , chica . but you would n't rat me out to mateo . no way you 'd cut me like that . blanca : like you cut me with your lies ? if you do n't go on your own , i will do whatever it takes to make you go . dario : you know , instead of mateo , how about i contact my brother , rafe ? he 's a detective here with the salem police department , and i bet instead of blanca listening to your smack , he would be super interested in hearing what you have to say , especially about your cartel connections . guillermo : okay , okay , okay . i got it . i 'll leave . when you change your mind , you know where to find me . blanca : do n't hold your breath . dario : talk about a guy who ca n't take `` no `` for an answer . what did you see -- hey , whoa , are you okay ? come here . you 're shaking . you okay ? shh , shh , shh , shh . blanca : thanks for sticking up for me . [ exhales deeply ] dario : you held your own fine without my help . but how did a girl like you end up with such a lowlife like that ? blanca : [ sighs ] i feel embarrassed to say it , but i really thought i was in love with him , until i found out everything was a lie . truth is guillermo is a bad guy , and he 's in deep trouble with some dangerous people . sorry . guillermo : damn bitch , threatening to tell my boss . she 's gon na regret this . [ dramatic music ] well , what do you know ? hey , it 's me . you 'll never guess who i just found . theresa donovan . victor : that 's fine . lean on me . that 's what i 'm here for . maggie : i 'm not sure this is considered dancing . victor : feels fine to me . maggie : [ chuckles ] i can barely move . victor : that 's all right . that 's what i 'm here for . nicole : oh ... you left this at the pub . deimos : oh . [ laughs ] wow . well , how lucky am i ? nicole : lucky ? deimos : mm - hm . to have someone so considerate . nicole : oh . how did your talk go with philip ? actually quite well . nicole : oh , so , good for titan ? deimos : no . unfortunately not . but for my nephew and me , it felt like a breakthrough of sorts . i mean , obviously , i felt bad that i used him to get to victor when i first came to town , but he seems to have gotten over that , and whatever tension there was between us over chloe 's baby . i do n't know . i felt like talking to philip just now and giving him advice , it kind of felt like he was the son i never had . nicole : i -- i ca n't do this . deimos : do what ? nicole : deimos , there is something i have to tell you , and i have kept this secret from you long enough .

<s>[INST] theresa : brady , i 'm here . brady ? brady , where are you ? brady ? brady ! no -- [ shaky breathing ] oh ! no , please , please . please do n't leave me . no ! no , brady ! you ca n't -- you ca n't leave . brady , hi , hi . brady : i heard you . what -- i 'm right here , baby . theresa : hi , hi . brady : what 's going on with you ? theresa : hi . brady : hey . mmm . remind me to make breakfast more often for you . that was nice . theresa : it 's just that you were n't here and i -- you made breakfast ? brady : yeah . i did . theresa : what 's the occasion ? brady : well , it 's the first day of our honeymoon . what are you talking about ? theresa : did i miss something ? was there a wedding ? brady : we exchanged vows in this very room . theresa : yeah , unofficially , mister . brady : yeah , well , officially , you are my wife . in my heart , you 're my wife , and officially , i 'm the luckiest guy in the world . nicole : well , cheers to the end of hell as we knew it . [ chuckles ] deimos : mm . nicole : you know , still , just sitting here like this , it almost feels like this whole thing never happened . deimos : oh , it happened . nicole : and you 've got the scars to prove it . does it still hurt ? deimos : nah . i 'll get over it . nicole : will you ever get over killing xander ? deimos : well , like i told you , i will do whatever it takes to keep you safe . what was that for ? nicole : keeping your promise . blanca : you probably should n't even be out after what you 've been through . dario : i 'm fine , thanks to your healing touch . besides , i wanted to make sure you could handle my moves sitting down before i took you dancing . nicole : hi . i need to talk to you . dario : in case you did n't notice , i 'm not alone . nicole : well , i 'm sorry . this ca n't wait . dario : i 'm surprised you 'd ditch your date to interrupt mine . nicole : okay , i told deimos this would n't take long . first of all , i just start by saying that i 'm glad you 're okay . dario : look , i know there 's something on your mind , unless you 're -- unless you 're trying to get me away from my date . nicole : i am so not jealous . and i wanted to talk to you because i know you went behind my back and took a job with deimos to spy on chloe . dario : now wait a minute . nicole : no , no , no , do n't even try to deny it , because i know you broke into her place . deimos already admitted it . dario : that guy 's got a lot of nerve ratting me out . nicole : he did n't rat you out . he only spilled after i told him i over heard you two talking . dario : okay , so , you 're mad at me because i spied on chloe , but you only knew about that because you were spying on me ? i trusted you . i thought you were a decent guy . dario : i am . i was only keeping an eye on deimos for you . nicole : deimos said the same thing . dario : oh , look at that . for once , the guy 's telling the truth . and , for the record , i think if you keep seeing him , you 're gon na get hurt . as your friend , i was trying to prevent that . nicole : thank you . i can take care of myself . and you know what ? if you and i are gon na continue to be friends , you need to respect my choices . dario : are you happy ? nicole : i am . dario : okay , then . that 's all i want . deimos : and that makes two of us . is there anything going on out here i should know about ? then we wad it up to make it nice and soft . dario : nicole did n't like me working for you . nicole : no . what i did n't like was you spying on chloe and breaking into her hotel room . deimos : well , i believe we 've already been through this . dario was only doing what he was paid to do . nicole : that does n't make it right . deimos : i thought chloe was lying about her baby not being mine . now that i know i was wrong , i admit that i crossed a line . i 'm just hoping in time everyone , including chloe , will see that my intentions were pure , even if my methods were n't exactly so . chloe : philip and i -- we have not been together , and the father of this baby is deimos . nicole : fine . let 's just go back inside . deimos : all right , i would love to , but philip just called . he wants to see me down at the docks . so , look , why do n't you go inside ? i 've already paid for breakfast . sit and enjoy , all right ? i 'll see you later . nicole : go ahead . say it . dario : are we done -- nicole : you still think you 're right about deimos . dario : are we done here ? nicole : no . dario : i 'd like to get back to my date . nicole : well , she is beautiful . [ scoffs ] [ dramatic music ] maggie : it was so nice of you to make a house call , dr. chen . would you stay for a cup of coffee or tea ? chen : oh , thank you , but i really must go . victor : but we have n't discussed how maggie 's doing : if she 's on schedule , if there 's anything , any exercises she should be doing to speed things up . chen : your wife has made remarkable progress . however , i do have one concern . philip : after all these years , i believe titan knows your shipping needs better than dimera , and we 're willing to do whatever it takes -- all right , well , call before you make the final decision -- all right , then i 'll call -- [ breathes deeply ] deimos : another defector ? philip : forget bringing in new business . we can barely hold on to what we have , thanks to brady 's bungled raid . deimos : i was really hoping the panic would 've died down by now . philip : if anything , it 's growing , which is why i think we should call in the big guns . deimos : no . i told you victor already has enough on his plate right now getting maggie settled back in . philip : but he established these relationships . he has a long history with the players . deimos : and if he wanted to be involved , he would n't have authorized me to represent titan in his absence . philip : even though you do n't officially work there . deimos : and neither do you . but that has n't stopped you from trying to keep it up and running . philip : i 've been thinking maybe i should be back in an official capacity . deimos : well , that 's fine with me . but considering victor 's the one that threw you out , i 'm not sure how badly he wants you back in right now . philip : that 's why i asked you to meet . you said yourself you caused the riff between me and victor . you could make up for that by convincing him to give me a second chance . talk up my business expertise , that i 'd be a real asset . especially now with this recent crisis , i think that the most important thing 's -- deimos : no . absolutely not . blanca : nope ! oney on me . dario : what is that about , anyway ? blanca : well , a guy who pays a girl 's way makes assumptions . guillermo : hola , blanca . blanca : what the hell are you doing here ? philip : wow . did n't expect that response . deimos : you 're taking this the wrong way . philip : not too many ways to take the word `` no . `` deimos : i think you going back to titan is a great idea . but you said yourself , i 'm the one responsible for victor throwing you out . now , me going to him on your behalf would only remind him of that fact . and it might even cause him to wonder if the two of us are teaming up against him again . philip : you have a point . deimos : yeah , right ? now , i 've already gone on your behalf and pushed the envelope , inviting you to move into the mansion . now , i did that in the hopes that the two of you under the same roof might force a reconciliation . philip : has n't worked so far . deimos : yeah , all right . but now , if you go to victor and ask to be part of the family business again , it might just do that . at the very least , it could reopen the lines of communication between the two of you . but just do n't expect victor to jump on board right away . philip : the more i think about it , the more i wonder if trying to repair what 's broken between me and my dad is nothing but a big waste of time . victor : i thought you said she was doing fine . chen : it 's true . by all accounts , there 's no reason why she would need her wheelchair or crutches . she seems to have completely healed . physically , that is . psychologically , there seems to be a block . maggie : are you saying i want to use this chair ? chen : not on a conscious level , no . maggie : there is nothing that i want more than to stand on my own . victor : maybe we should give it another shot . would you do that for me ? maggie : oh -- brady : packing breakfast was a good idea , because all that indoor celebrating kind of got me ravenous , and -- theresa : oh . brady : oh , hey , this is -- this is perfect . this is nice . perfect spot right here , okay ? theresa : all right . brady : here . that 's you , my beautiful bride - to - be with my beautiful son . this is the perfect spot . have a seat . theresa : you 're in a funny mood . brady : i 'm in a good mood . theresa : [ laughing ] okay . brady : it 's a good day . it 's a perfect day . i have my perfect bride - to - be . i have my perfect son . i have my perfect wedding that we 're going to plan . i love it . life 's good . theresa : well , there 's not really that much to plan . i mean , everything was already in place before -- you know , before it fell apart . brady : you know what the most perfect thing about it is ? theresa : hm ? brady : there 's no xander or anybody else that 's going to ruin it for us . remember that . theresa : true . brady : but you 're still scared , and i can tell . theresa : it 's not that i 'm scared . it 's just -- i guess i was just traumatized by everything that happened . i mean , and who would n't be ? so , you know , i 'm just a little gun - shy . brady : completely . hey , it 's understandable . but remember : he 's gone . xander 's gone . and he ca n't ever bother you again . he ca n't touch you . theresa : right -- yeah , i know that , yeah . brady : so , why do n't we just agree that that -- that attack and everything that happened -- it does n't define who we are . it does n't dictate our happiness , okay ? i know you ca n't forget about it . i do n't expect you to forget , but i can help you move on . we can move on -- theresa : brady , i ca n't move on from that . we ca n't . i just -- not until i tell you the truth . dario : wait a minute -- is this the guy ? the guy from your past who was trying to track you down ? the one you never wanted to see again ? blanca : and i still do n't . you have to leave . guillermo : oh , eres un poco emocional , querida . blanca : i ca n't believe you had the nerves to follow me here . guillermo : hey , you left without saying good - bye . i 've been going crazy looking for you . blanca : you were already crazy . guillermo : look , i know i messed up . blanca : i caught you in bed with another woman . guillermo : you do n't know the whole story . blanca : i know enough . guillermo : y un poco de apoyo , amigo ? dario : you 're on your own ... amigo . guillermo : give me a chance -- blanca : do n't touch me . guillermo : to explain . blanca : only if you explain why you were also in bed with a major drug cartel . you know what ? on second thought , do n't explain anything . just go . guillermo : hey , you should watch what you say . blanca : do n't touch me . guillermo : you know that . dario : are you gon na respect what blanca 's asking you , or are you and i gon na have a problem ? theresa : i never meant to hurt you . brady : you never meant to hurt me ? what -- talk to me . what -- what are you talking about ? what `` truth `` are you talking about ? theresa : look , xander ... trying to rape me did n't happen . brady : i do n't understand . theresa : i made it up . brady : you lied -- what -- why would you lie about something like that ? theresa : because of you , brady -- because i wanted you to care about me , okay ? and i wanted you to want to protect me , and when i said that xander attacked me , you did all of that . brady : so , he went to prison for a crime that he did n't commit ? theresa : yes , i know . yes , and i hate myself for it . brady : um ... [ sighs ] theresa : brady , i just -- i decided to come clean , okay ? because , well , i just -- i figured that if i told you , and you hate me , or you decide that you ca n't forgive me , then i 'm gon na have to deal with that . but i guess it 's better than living every day wondering and just expecting the worst to happen . brady : theresa , i hate that you lied . i really do . but xander was on his way to prison with or without you . theresa : yeah , i know , and look , he should 've gone to prison for what he did to eric and nicole , but i should not have lied to you , brady -- brady : no , you should n't have lied , theresa , but here 's the deal -- here 's the deal : you were a different person back then . hell , i 've done so much in my past that i 'm not proud of . i 've hurt so many people that i ca -- i do n't even want to think about or remember those times , but you -- the reason i 'm a different person is because of you . because of what we have in our relationship , and tate and our family . i do n't like what you did . i do n't . but i 'm not gon na stop loving you because of something . theresa : and i 'm not gon na stop love you . ever , ever , ever . and i promise you that i 'm not gon na keep any more secrets from you , okay ? 'cause i 'm never ever gon na risk losing you . brady : well , good , because i 'm in this for the long haul , so you 're stuck with me . theresa : mm . [ laughs ] till death do us part ? brady : whatever . maybe beyond that . who knows ? theresa : yeah , who knows ? julie : i 'm sorry to intrude , victor , but i just got a call from maggie , and she sounded so upset , but she would n't tell me why . victor : i 'm glad you came . come on in . julie : is she here ? i 'll just go up and see her , or wherever she is -- victor : actually , her doctor just left . julie : bad news ? victor : no , actually , it was good . according to dr. chen , she should be able to walk on her own . julie : that 's wonderful . victor : except she ca n't . the doctor thinks it 's some sort of a mental block . julie : that may make sense , given her history . victor : what are you talking about ? julie : oh , victor , you should know ... years ago , she had a surgery to regain the use of her legs , and afterwards , the doctor said it was a medical success . but she still could n't walk . victor : well , did they ever find out why ? julie : it was quite simple , really . she was afraid . victor : what ? falling ? reinjuring herself ? what ? julie : nothing so logical . you know , maggie , for all her beauty and her accomplishments , she has issues with self - esteem . and back then , she thought she 'd lose mickey to another woman . i do n't know . maybe she thought that if she was completely dependent on him , he would n't stray . victor : that 's never been an issue with us . julie : i -- i 'm sure you 're faithful to her . but that does n't mean that maggie is n't afraid of losing you . unconsciously , this may be her way to deal with her fear . victor : you 're saying she 's literally afraid of standing on her own ? julie : i 'm not a psychiatrist . i 've just known her and loved her for decades . and that does make sense . so , victor , you have to find a way to make her feel safe again . victor : i tell her all the time how much i love her , how much i need her . julie : i bet she hears every word , and understands in her mind that you 're not going anywhere . but she 's got to feel it , victor , deep in her heart . victor : so , she 's still afraid that i 'll leave ? when this happened before , what did mickey do ? julie : he gave her a pair of red dancing shoes , a symbol of his love and of their future together . i already tried that . obviously it did n't work . damn , i feel so helpless . julie : victor , you 're hardly that . you need to look into your heart . it will tell you how to reach hers . deimos : victor can certainly be a difficult man to reach . philip : you 're telling me that ? deimos : that does n't mean you just walk away . honestly , i would give anything to have the chance you have right now to make things right . i resented victor for being the apple of our father 's eye . i was considered nothing but damaged goods , a mistake my father was constantly forced to acknowledge . philip : i 'm sorry about that . deimos : mm . you know , it was n't until i finally realized that i was a worthwhile person that i was able to rise above my father 's low opinion of me , toss away all that anger , finally allow myself to get close to someone . for the first time in my life , i feel like love is n't a weapon , something to be withheld or exchanged for obedience . philip : sounds like making peace with your past really got you in touch with your feelings . deimos : my past was n't the only thing that did that . bottom line , philip , the bond between a father and son -- it 's way too important to dismiss so lightly . between us , i think that was the real reason why i was so desperately wanting chloe 's baby to be mine . i thought that if i could be the father i never had to my own son , then maybe finally i 'd be able to heal all those old wounds . guillermo : i 'd like to see you try and make me leave . dario : do n't think i can ? i make my living throwing losers twice your size out of bars . guillermo : yeah ? bring it on . blanca : stop ! guillermo , you need to leave and never come back , okay ? guillermo : you do n't mean that . blanca : you and i are over . there 's nothing for you here . guillermo : we 'll see about that . blanca : this town has enough . the people here are not gon na put up with your stupid things . guillermo : you know i 'm not scared of the cops ... on either side of the border . blanca : no ? what about your boss , hm ? are you scared of him ? what do you think he will do when i tell him you were getting a little bit for yourself ? guillermo : i told you i did n't do that . blanca : and i told you i have proof . and i kept it just in case you have trouble getting a `` no `` for an answer . we both know mateo is not the type of boss to forgive and forget . philip : you 're home . victor : where else would i be ? philip : no , i just thought -- [ clears throat ] never mind . since you are here , there 's something i 'd like to talk to you about . victor : not now , philip . philip : of course not . no . what was i thinking ? what did maggie 's doctor say ? victor : how 'd you know dr. chen was here ? philip : she was coming up the drive when i left earlier . is everything okay ? victor : no , everything is not okay . philip : want to talk about it ? victor : dr. chen seems to think that maggie is completely healed , that she should be able to walk on her own . philip : that 's great , is n't it ? victor : yes , it would be if she could . ca n't seem to -- does n't seem to want to . i do n't know . julie thinks it 's -- she thinks that it 's because of her fear . philip : fear of what ? victor : fear of losing me . apparently , i have to find some way of showing her that she has no need to be afraid , reassure her that i 'll be here no matter what . philip : i know how much you love maggie . i 'm surprised she does n't already know that . victor : so am i . but apparently i have to do more . philip : showing your love is n't as hard as it sounds . could be as simple as a shift in thinking . being willing to make a small change like that could mean the world to someone . victor : it 's not exactly a small change . i think it might work . philip : want to run it by me ? victor : i ... i want to be able to spend more time with her . of course , that means i 'll have to take a step back at titan , give somebody else in the family a chance to run it . nicole : chloe , please pick up the phone this time . chloe : hey , this is chloe . you know what to do . nicole : i do n't want to leave a message ! [ beeps ] nicole : chloe , hi . it 's me again . i mean , i do n't know why you 're not returning my phone calls , but i really need to talk to you . it 's about the baby . and i know i promised i would keep your secret , but the more i think about it , the stronger i feel that deimos needs to know the truth . nicole : i need you to call me back now . [ beeps ] deimos : nicole ? what are you doing here ? maggie : you must be disappointed in me . victor : no , that is something that i could never be . i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry i snapped at you and dr. chen earlier . i just do n't know what 's wrong with me . victor : there is nothing wrong with you . you are perfect . why else would i be wanting to spend all my time with you ? maggie : that 's very sweet . victor : no , i 'm serious . i 've made a decision . i 'm going to retire from titan , and spend all my time making you better . maggie : but you ca n't do that . victor : of course i can . it 's my company . i can do whatever i want . god knows there are enough viable candidates standing in the wings waiting to take my place . maggie : you really mean it ? victor : i only want one focus in my life right now , and that focus is you . i will move heaven and earth to make you well . you 'll see . soon enough , we 'll be dancing the night away just the way we used to . maggie : well , maybe we can try a little dancing now . victor : do you feel up to it ? maggie : well ... [ sobs ] my rock . you 're my rock . [ theresa laughing ] brady : god , at this rate , he 's gon na sleep through halloween . theresa : oh , shoot , i forgot to get him a costume ... i -- brady : baby , you do n't have to get him a costume . he 's only -- he 's not into halloween yet . theresa : i know , i know , but it would be so cute , and you know what , i saw a pumpkin costume in one of these windows , but they 're all boarded up . brady : you 're gon na dress him as a pumpkin ? theresa : yeah , would n't that be so cute ? brady : eh ... no . theresa : i just -- i -- oh , which store was it ? philip : i thought about you three this morning , how much i 'm gon na miss you guys when you move into your own place . brady : [ clears throat ] yeah , you 're gon na miss being woken up by my son every morning when he 's crying , right ? philip : are you kidding ? i 'm gon na miss that sound like crazy . i 'm not a big fan of quiet . brady : well , it 's never gon na be all that quiet , you know . philip : yeah , i suppose that 's true . i guess victor 's gon na be in the mansion a lot more now . brady : now that maggie 's out of the hospital , i figured he 'd be at titan full- time now . philip : not if he retires . brady : [ laughs ] did he actually say that ? he also said maybe it was time to give someone in the family a chance to run the company . brady : did he mention who that someone might be ? philip : no . but i plan to convince him that i 'm the man for the job . any good word you could offer up on my behalf would be much appreciated . brady : okay . theresa : mm - hm . philip : okay , that 's the second look between you two . am i being paranoid , or is there something to it ? brady : no , you 're not par -- philip , come on . you 're not the -- not the only viable candidate here , all right ? philip : well , who -- wait , not you . brady : yeah , maybe me , philip . i did run the company for years . pretty smoothly , i might add . philip : and you spent one fateful night tearing it apart . brady : why do n't you -- why do n't you let that thing go ? let it go , okay ? philip : your bad decision has cost titan millions already . do you honestly think my father 's gon na trust you with the top spot after that fiasco ? brady : you know , the last time -- if i recall , the last time you were at the top spot of the company , you ended up stabbing victor in the back . am i wrong about that ? theresa : no . philip : at least i did n't leave in a huff because he did n't like my girlfriend . brady : you 're such a son of a -- theresa : okay , you know what , you guys , just stop , stop , stop . you 're gon na wake up tate . look , good luck , philip . brady : yeah . hey , may the best man win , right ? philip : right back at you , brady . brady : why do i think this is gon na get ugly ? theresa : you know what ? no one deserves to be ceo of titan more than you do , and i 'm sure that when the time comes , victor 's gon na see that too , all right ? brady : yeah . i 'm glad you 're sure . theresa : hey , i am . 'cause you know what ? brady : what ? theresa : if we can get through everything that we 've been through with no problem , we can make all of our dreams come true together . guillermo : you talk big , chica . but you would n't rat me out to mateo . no way you 'd cut me like that . blanca : like you cut me with your lies ? if you do n't go on your own , i will do whatever it takes to make you go . dario : you know , instead of mateo , how about i contact my brother , rafe ? he 's a detective here with the salem police department , and i bet instead of blanca listening to your smack , he would be super interested in hearing what you have to say , especially about your cartel connections . guillermo : okay , okay , okay . i got it . i 'll leave . when you change your mind , you know where to find me . blanca : do n't hold your breath . dario : talk about a guy who ca n't take `` no `` for an answer . what did you see -- hey , whoa , are you okay ? come here . you 're shaking . you okay ? shh , shh , shh , shh . blanca : thanks for sticking up for me .

bill : get out of my way , aitoro . gus : oh , i thought maybe olivia was bathing the baby . or .. dad , listen ... alan : look ... gus : i want to apologize for putting you ... alan : i do n't have time to discuss anything with you right now , because olivia has taken emma and they have left . gus : she skipped town because she does n't want to go to jail . alan : go to jail for what ? gus : for killing your son . olivia killed phillip . mallet : okay , let 's restrict that entire cell block and then i 'll deal with the major infractions later , okay . until then i do n't want to be disturbed . guard : okay , sir , but things are getting pretty tense in that block . should i come back to ... ? mallet : listen to me . i do n't want to be disturbed , okay . do you understand ? guard : sure . mallet : okay . harley : keeping me safe is getting harder and harder . mallet : i can handle it . harley : mallet , i ... i have n't even thanked you and you 're going through all this trouble for me . mallet : hey , i would think the earth has stopped spinning unless you were causing me a little trouble . harley : what does that mean ? mallet : well , no offense , but trouble is in your nature . harley : no , it isn't . mallet : should i run down the list ? harley : what list ? mallet : the list i keep in my head of all the things you 've ever did . harley : you mean like the time that i slept with the tramp in the surveillance van . oh , no , that 's right . that was n't me . that was you . mallet : wow . you 're a dirty fighter . harley : well , you did it , did n't you ? mallet : yes , and i apologized . harley : and that 's suppose to make everything okay ? mallet : no . harley : you 're damn right it doesn't . mallet : harley , i hate the fact that i hurt you . it made me physically ill . but you ran . you bailed on our marriage . you never gave me a second chance . harley : maybe what i wanted was for you to come after me . if you wanted to feel like you were trying to get me back ... that you stilled loved me . and i 'll tell you something . in the end that what killed me . your silence . you did n't call me , you did n't write me . nothing . mallet : what are you talking about ? what are you talking about ? that 's all i did . harley : okay , now you 're going to start lying . that 's great . mallet : i wrote you till my fingers bled . i wrote you until i ran out of things to say . you ignored my letters . harley : what letters ? mallet : my letters . all my letters . you must have them . the stack of my letters must be as thick as two phone books . harley : you wrote me letters ? mallet : did i write you ? i begged you to please let me back into your life . what ? do n't tell me you did n't get those letters ? lizzie : coming up on `` guiding light `` ... vanessa : well , why would olivia ... bill : do n't go there , mom , all right . vanessa : you think she did it . mallet : and then i kept sending them every few days . and then after awhile it 's one week . harley : wait a minute . for how long ? mallet : for how long ? well , after the first year or so . harley : for years ? you wrote me letters for years ? mallet : yeah . oprah : in love with a child buzz : can you stay with zach for a second ?

gus : does that sound crazy to you ? alan : no , but tell me why ? gus : i 'm sorry from the bottom of my heart for throwing you in the room . i thought it was you but now i know it was olivia that put me there . i now know nobody would go through machinations and keep somebody prisoner unless they were guilty . now she 's gone and i 'm asking for your help . alan : for phillip 's sake or harley 's ? gus : for both . i know off problem with harley but the bottom line is you and alexandra drove me away . whatever it is , we both want the same thing , right ? to bring phillip 's killer to justice . alan : you know i want justice for phillip . and you know also , gus , that i want you back in this family . gus : well , thank you . as far as harley is concerned , okay , i love her and it 's never going to change and when i clear her name i 'm going to marry the girl and she 's going to become a spaulding again . look , you and i , we 'll be fine as long as you do n't stand in our way . alan : i 'm not the one who will be standing in your way . mallet : of course i wrote to you . i poured everything i had into those letters . are you telling me you never read them ? harley : i 'm saying i never got them . not one letter . mallet : not one ? i sent one right after our last phone call . and then i kept sending them every few days . and after a while it was one a week . harley : wait a minute . for how long ? mallet : for how long ? well , after the first year or so ... harley : for years ! you wrote me letters for years ? mallet : yeah . yeah . at first i thought , well , she these some time . and then i did n't know what to think . your silence just ... it killed me . harley : mallet , i ... you know that i would have ... i would have written you back . i would have answered you . at the very least i would have sent it back to you ripped to pieces . mallet : i do n't understand . i do n't get it . what happened ? frank : i 'm telling you , there must be some mistake , i know harley cooper 's in this prison . guard : warden , i keep trying to tell him .... mallet : i 've got it . frank : mallet , i do n't have time to play games . what is going on here ? mallet , what is going on ? harley : hi , frank . frank : sis ! oh , my god . harley : it 's so good to see you . frank : are you okay ? what 's going on . harley : i 'm ... can we have a minute ? mallet : are you asking me to leave my office again ? frank : um , what 's going on here ? is there something going on with you and mallet ? harley ? harley : he 's taking care of me , frank , but something did happen , the most incredible thing happened . we realize that after we broke up he wrote me letters and i never got them , frank . can you imagine ? i mean , it 's ... it 's this huge misunderstanding about our ... breakup . frank ? frank ! frank , you were the one who kept those letters from me ? danny : all right . you go first . buzz : what are you doing ? coop : dad , say what you 're doing to say about lizzie and leave it at that . buzz : i offered to help . coop : nothing would have helped . i should have n't invited her in the first place . buzz : go over there . fly over there . crawl over there . use whatever pathetic tools you have to fix that . coop : why does n't she come over here ? buzz : enough ! there are very few true accomplishments a man can claim in his lifetime . one of the most important is to be truly humble in front of a woman no matter who 's at fault . coop : what are the other ones ? buzz : suck it up . she looks hungry . start there . coop : fine . fine . uh - huh . the truce ? look , i really want it to be okay . marina : lizzie ... lizzie : is that there ketchup on the burger ? coop : do you like ketchup on your burger ? lizzie : no . coop : then why would you think i 'd put ketchup on your burger ? lizzie : that is so sweet ! danny : yeah , i know , zach . but you know what the problem is i do n't know what to do with all this space between me and marina so much space . buzz : sell it . put a billboard there there 's so much space . danny : there 's so much space . there 's so much space , zach , that i ca n't tell marina how special she is and how grateful i am that she 's in my life and how sorry i am that i made her feel bad . buzz : this is such a sad story . danny : is n't it ? i know . but what can i do , buzz ? marina told know stay away ? buzz : she told you to stay away and you 're going to accept that ? why do n't you go check in and come away understanding what `` stay away `` really means , you know ? i 've got to clean you up . bill : of course that i do n't want to believe olivia had anything to do with phillip 's murder . vanessa : well , of course not . but , you know , some mothers will do anything to protect their children . i mean , case in point . you know , what i did for dinah after she killed hart . now i 'm not ... i ... i do n't knowing olivia well enough to know whether she would kill for her child , but the point is , honey , what will you do if she did ? bill : i do n't know . maybe phillip got what he deserved . he push so many people , threatened so many people . i just wish she had come to me , that 's all . vanessa : well you ca n't wait for her to do that . you 've got to go to her . you 've got to let her know that she 's not alone . alan : i spoke to a.c. mallet , gus . you know he still loves harley very much . she 's literally his captive audience as we speak . gus : i have faith in harley and in us . in fact , the matter is when things get even harder and more difficult i have even more faith . so what do you say ? can you stand helping me out with harley if it means getting to the truth ? frank : that 's right , harley . i intercepted the first letter that mallet sent you . i kept it from you . harley : those were my letters ! frank : those letters would have hurt you , and you needed time to heal . harley : no , frank . i needed to fix things ! healing means fixing something . salvaging something , like my marriage , frank ! you could n't just amputate this part of my heart . yes , okay , yes , i needed to move on . but how am i supposed to do that without at least talking to that guy ? frank : it worked , did n't it ? harley : no , it didn't . because i am here ! i am stuck in this place with him with all this unfinished business between us . i ca n't even talk about this with you right now . let 's just talk about what 's really going on here . frank : exactly what is going on here now ? why do the guards think you 're not here ? harley : because i got transferred to hellis correctional . frank : that place is a war zone . harley : that 's why he 's working to get me out of here . but gus needs some piece of information to get me out . frank : gus needs a lead , i 'm on board . harley : no , thanks , frank , really , i think you 've done enough . frank : you said this was n't the time or place for this . harley : you do n't feel bad . you 're not going to say you 're sorry , nothing . frank : i will never say i 'm sorry for protecting you , ever . harley : i do n't need your protection , frank . frank : you 've never lived without it . whether you admit it or not , somebody 's always protected you from something whether it was me or gus or phillip or me . harley : since i got here it had n't been you protecting me or gus protecting me . no . the only person protecting me has been mallet . lizzie : i 'm sorry for being a little mean to you earlier . coop : apology accepted . and i know that it was n't cool for making you feel like you were a charity case tonight . lizzie : i know you did n't mean to . it 's just weird to be around a family that likes each other so much . my family 's pretty low on the warm and fuzzy scale . coop : well , you know you 've always got a place here . lizzie : well , like you have said , i do own the place . coop : no , i meant that you 've always got a place here with me , you know , as friends . lizzie : yeah , but , coop ... coop : no , don't . please , you have to . lizzie : seriously . why would i say no to that ? you 're , like , my only friend besides roxy . beggars ca n't be choosy . coop : since when have spauldings ever had to beg . lizzie : never . they don't . what ? coop : nothing . i 'm just thinking that you 're a lot prettier when you 're laughing . right . well , i tell you what ? i 'm going to get roxy some water . she 's looking a bit thirsty . lizzie : okay . buzz : well , one down . one to go . marina : i can hear you . danny : okay . this is as close as i 'm gon na get . not as close as i want to be , but ... marina : i am standing by my decision , danny . i ca n't be with you until you take some time to decide if that 's really what you want . danny : are you telling me to take a timeout ? okay . marina : danny , no . no ! danny : you know i 'm gon na do whatever i have to do to win you over . ( laughs ) buzz : you see hope is always out there , you 've just got to go looking for it . look . mallet : i 'm sorry , guys , but frank , i 've got to get you out of here now . we 've got to keep harley hidden . people will start asking questions if they see you hanging around . harley : frank , i love you . frank : yeah , i love you , too . you 'll be okay . harley : tell gus what 's happening , okay ? kiss the kids for me . gus : can you stop working for a second , please , and just answer me ? alan : you know , gus , maybe i was wrong about harley . and you know more than anything in the world i want to get to the truth . gus : well , there 's only one way to do that . alan : find olivia . gus : yeah . and work together . alan : father and son . bill : olivia , it 's me . listen , i do n't know to what to say except come home . i do n't know what you 're running from . i do n't know what you 're afraid of . and i do n't know what you 've done . but i want you to know that i am here for you and i love you and i want you to come home . gus : i 'm glad we 're finally working together because i really think it 's the only way to get harley out of prison . i 'll be in touch . alan : there 's more than one way to get harley out of prison . yes , i 'm looking for confirmation of my plan . my son wants harley out of prison and so do i . no , no , no . no , no . because if my plan goes through , harley will be sent away someplace from which she will never ever return . olivia , you 're next . mallet : so you believe me now about the letters ? harley : oh , yes . i believe you . mallet : okay . harley : as if my life could n't get more complicated . mallet : it 's okay . we can talk about it later . why do n't you get some rest ? harley : i do n't know if i could . mallet : no arguments , okay ? i know how hard that is for you . all right . close your eyes . harley : mallet ? thank you for saving me . mallet : i 'm sorry it had to come down to this . i just wish ...

( laughs ) wow , is this hard . look , what if i just wanted you here , okay ? i wanted you to hang out , you know . look nothing ... everything aside ... put the dog down . just hang out with me for awhile . that 's it . danny : me , too . what do you say ? minus the stuff about the dog . alan : olivia has taken emma and left ? bill : did she say where she went ? did she give you a clue ? anything at all ? hilda : nothing . bill : i got to find her . gus : hey , bill . so what 's up ? bill : get out of my way , aitoro . gus : oh , i thought maybe olivia was bathing the baby . or .. dad , listen ... alan : look ... gus : i want to apologize for putting you ... alan : i do n't have time to discuss anything with you right now , because olivia has taken emma and they have left . gus : she skipped town because she does n't want to go to jail . alan : go to jail for what ? gus : for killing your son . olivia killed phillip . mallet : okay , let 's restrict that entire cell block and then i 'll deal with the major infractions later , okay . until then i do n't want to be disturbed . guard : okay , sir , but things are getting pretty tense in that block . should i come back to ... ? mallet : listen to me . i do n't want to be disturbed , okay . do you understand ? guard : sure . mallet : okay . harley : keeping me safe is getting harder and harder . mallet : i can handle it . harley : mallet , i ... i have n't even thanked you and you 're going through all this trouble for me . mallet : hey , i would think the earth has stopped spinning unless you were causing me a little trouble . harley : what does that mean ? mallet : well , no offense , but trouble is in your nature . harley : no , it isn't . mallet : should i run down the list ? harley : what list ? mallet : the list i keep in my head of all the things you 've ever did . harley : you mean like the time that i slept with the tramp in the surveillance van . oh , no , that 's right . that was n't me . that was you . mallet : wow . you 're a dirty fighter . harley : well , you did it , did n't you ? mallet : yes , and i apologized . harley : and that 's suppose to make everything okay ? mallet : no . harley : you 're damn right it doesn't . mallet : harley , i hate the fact that i hurt you . it made me physically ill . but you ran . you bailed on our marriage . you never gave me a second chance . harley : maybe what i wanted was for you to come after me . if you wanted to feel like you were trying to get me back ... that you stilled loved me . and i 'll tell you something . in the end that what killed me . your silence . you did n't call me , you did n't write me . nothing . mallet : what are you talking about ? what are you talking about ? that 's all i did . harley : okay , now you 're going to start lying . that 's great . mallet : i wrote you till my fingers bled . i wrote you until i ran out of things to say . you ignored my letters . harley : what letters ? mallet : my letters . all my letters . you must have them . the stack of my letters must be as thick as two phone books . harley : you wrote me letters ? mallet : did i write you ? i begged you to please let me back into your life . what ? do n't tell me you did n't get those letters ? lizzie : coming up on `` guiding light `` ... vanessa : well , why would olivia ... bill : do n't go there , mom , all right . vanessa : you think she did it . mallet : and then i kept sending them every few days . and then after awhile it 's one week . harley : wait a minute . for how long ? mallet : for how long ? well , after the first year or so . harley : for years ? you wrote me letters for years ? mallet : yeah . oprah : in love with a child buzz : can you stay with zach for a second ?

bill : dinah . no , i haven't . in fact , i 'm looking for olivia . you did n't happen to run into her , did you ? vanessa : no . why ? bill : oh , well , she may have skipped town . alan 's son gus thinks she had something to do with phillip 's murder . vanessa : what ? bill : he said that she locked him up in some room because he was getting too close and too much . and then i go over to the spaulding mansion and the maid says that she left town with emma . i ... i do n't know . vanessa : well , why would olivia -- bill : do n't go there , mom . vanessa : you think she did it . alan : you really believe that she killed him ? gus : does that sound crazy to you ? alan : no , but tell me why ? gus : i 'm sorry from the bottom of my heart for throwing you in the room . i thought it was you but now i know it was olivia that put me there . i now know nobody would go through machinations and keep somebody prisoner unless they were guilty . now she 's gone and i 'm asking for your help . alan : for phillip 's sake or harley 's ? gus : for both . i know off problem with harley but the bottom line is you and alexandra drove me away . whatever it is , we both want the same thing , right ? to bring phillip 's killer to justice . alan : you know i want justice for phillip . and you know also , gus , that i want you back in this family . gus : well , thank you . as far as harley is concerned , okay , i love her and it 's never going to change and when i clear her name i 'm going to marry the girl and she 's going to become a spaulding again . look , you and i , we 'll be fine as long as you do n't stand in our way . alan : i 'm not the one who will be standing in your way . mallet : of course i wrote to you . i poured everything i had into those letters . are you telling me you never read them ? harley : i 'm saying i never got them . not one letter . mallet : not one ? i sent one right after our last phone call . and then i kept sending them every few days . and after a while it was one a week . harley : wait a minute . for how long ? mallet : for how long ? well , after the first year or so ... harley : for years ! you wrote me letters for years ? mallet : yeah . yeah . at first i thought , well , she these some time . and then i did n't know what to think . your silence just ... it killed me . harley : mallet , i ... you know that i would have ... i would have written you back . i would have answered you . at the very least i would have sent it back to you ripped to pieces . mallet : i do n't understand . i do n't get it . what happened ? frank : i 'm telling you , there must be some mistake , i know harley cooper 's in this prison . guard : warden , i keep trying to tell him .... mallet : i 've got it . frank : mallet , i do n't have time to play games . what is going on here ? mallet , what is going on ? harley : hi , frank . frank : sis ! oh , my god . harley : it 's so good to see you . frank : are you okay ? what 's going on . harley : i 'm ... can we have a minute ? mallet : are you asking me to leave my office again ? frank : um , what 's going on here ? is there something going on with you and mallet ? harley ? harley : he 's taking care of me , frank , but something did happen , the most incredible thing happened . we realize that after we broke up he wrote me letters and i never got them , frank . can you imagine ? i mean , it 's ... it 's this huge misunderstanding about our ... breakup . frank ? frank ! frank , you were the one who kept those letters from me ? danny : all right . you go first . buzz : what are you doing ? coop : dad , say what you 're doing to say about lizzie and leave it at that . buzz : i offered to help . coop : nothing would have helped . i should have n't invited her in the first place . buzz : go over there . fly over there . crawl over there . use whatever pathetic tools you have to fix that . coop : why does n't she come over here ? buzz : enough ! there are very few true accomplishments a man can claim in his lifetime . one of the most important is to be truly humble in front of a woman no matter who 's at fault . coop : what are the other ones ? buzz : suck it up . she looks hungry . start there . coop : fine . fine . uh - huh . the truce ? look , i really want it to be okay . marina : lizzie ... lizzie : is that there ketchup on the burger ? coop : do you like ketchup on your burger ? lizzie : no . coop : then why would you think i 'd put ketchup on your burger ? lizzie : that is so sweet ! danny : yeah , i know , zach . but you know what the problem is i do n't know what to do with all this space between me and marina so much space . buzz : sell it . put a billboard there there 's so much space . danny : there 's so much space . there 's so much space , zach , that i ca n't tell marina how special she is and how grateful i am that she 's in my life and how sorry i am that i made her feel bad . buzz : this is such a sad story . danny : is n't it ? i know . but what can i do , buzz ? marina told know stay away ? buzz : she told you to stay away and you 're going to accept that ? why do n't you go check in and come away understanding what `` stay away `` really means , you know ? i 've got to clean you up . bill : of course that i do n't want to believe olivia had anything to do with phillip 's murder . vanessa : well , of course not . but , you know , some mothers will do anything to protect their children . i mean , case in point . you know , what i did for dinah after she killed hart . now i 'm not ... i ... i do n't knowing olivia well enough to know whether she would kill for her child , but the point is , honey , what will you do if she did ? bill : i do n't know . maybe phillip got what he deserved . he push so many people , threatened so many people . i just wish she had come to me , that 's all . vanessa : well you ca n't wait for her to do that . you 've got to go to her . you 've got to let her know that she 's not alone . alan : i spoke to a.c. mallet , gus . you know he still loves harley very much . she 's literally his captive audience as we speak . gus : i have faith in harley and in us . in fact , the matter is when things get even harder and more difficult i have even more faith . so what do you say ? can you stand helping me out with harley if it means getting to the truth ? frank : that 's right , harley . i intercepted the first letter that mallet sent you . i kept it from you . harley : those were my letters ! frank : those letters would have hurt you , and you needed time to heal . harley : no , frank . i needed to fix things ! healing means fixing something . salvaging something , like my marriage , frank ! you could n't just amputate this part of my heart . yes , okay , yes , i needed to move on . but how am i supposed to do that without at least talking to that guy ? frank : it worked , did n't it ? harley : no , it didn't . because i am here ! i am stuck in this place with him with all this unfinished business between us . i ca n't even talk about this with you right now . let 's just talk about what 's really going on here . frank : exactly what is going on here now ? why do the guards think you 're not here ? harley : because i got transferred to hellis correctional . frank : that place is a war zone . harley : that 's why he 's working to get me out of here . but gus needs some piece of information to get me out . frank : gus needs a lead , i 'm on board . harley : no , thanks , frank , really , i think you 've done enough . frank : you said this was n't the time or place for this . harley : you do n't feel bad . you 're not going to say you 're sorry , nothing . frank : i will never say i 'm sorry for protecting you , ever . harley : i do n't need your protection , frank . frank : you 've never lived without it . whether you admit it or not , somebody 's always protected you from something whether it was me or gus or phillip or me . harley : since i got here it had n't been you protecting me or gus protecting me . no . the only person protecting me has been mallet . lizzie : i 'm sorry for being a little mean to you earlier . coop : apology accepted . and i know that it was n't cool for making you feel like you were a charity case tonight . lizzie : i know you did n't mean to . it 's just weird to be around a family that likes each other so much . my family 's pretty low on the warm and fuzzy scale . coop : well , you know you 've always got a place here . lizzie : well , like you have said , i do own the place . coop : no , i meant that you 've always got a place here with me , you know , as friends . lizzie : yeah , but , coop ... coop : no , don't . please , you have to . lizzie : seriously . why would i say no to that ? you 're , like , my only friend besides roxy . beggars ca n't be choosy . coop : since when have spauldings ever had to beg . lizzie : never . they don't . what ? coop : nothing . i 'm just thinking that you 're a lot prettier when you 're laughing . right . well , i tell you what ? i 'm going to get roxy some water . she 's looking a bit thirsty . lizzie : okay . buzz : well , one down . one to go . marina : i can hear you . danny : okay . this is as close as i 'm gon na get . not as close as i want to be , but ... marina : i am standing by my decision , danny . i ca n't be with you until you take some time to decide if that 's really what you want . danny : are you telling me to take a timeout ? okay . marina : danny , no . no ! danny : you know i 'm gon na do whatever i have to do to win you over . ( laughs ) buzz : you see hope is always out there , you 've just got to go looking for it . look . mallet : i 'm sorry , guys , but frank , i 've got to get you out of here now . we 've got to keep harley hidden . people will start asking questions if they see you hanging around . harley : frank , i love you . frank : yeah , i love you , too . you 'll be okay . harley : tell gus what 's happening , okay ? kiss the kids for me . gus : can you stop working for a second , please , and just answer me ? alan : you know , gus , maybe i was wrong about harley . and you know more than anything in the world i want to get to the truth . gus : well , there 's only one way to do that . alan : find olivia . gus : yeah . and work together . alan : father and son . bill : olivia , it 's me . listen , i do n't know to what to say except come home . i do n't know what you 're running from . i do n't know what you 're afraid of . and i do n't know what you 've done . but i want you to know that i am here for you and i love you and i want you to come home . gus : i 'm glad we 're finally working together because i really think it 's the only way to get harley out of prison . i 'll be in touch . alan : there 's more than one way to get harley out of prison . yes , i 'm looking for confirmation of my plan . my son wants harley out of prison and so do i . no , no , no . no , no . because if my plan goes through , harley will be sent away someplace from which she will never ever return . olivia , you 're next . mallet : so you believe me now about the letters ? harley : oh , yes . i believe you . mallet : okay . harley : as if my life could n't get more complicated . mallet : it 's okay . we can talk about it later . why do n't you get some rest ? harley : i do n't know if i could . mallet : no arguments , okay ? i know how hard that is for you . all right . close your eyes . harley : mallet ? thank you for saving me . mallet : i 'm sorry it had to come down to this . i just wish ...

jackie : what ? oh , come on , deacon , i 'm fine . i 'm fine . really . in fact , i 'm more than fine . everything is turning out just as i 'd hoped for . brooke is going to be my daughter - in - law . nicky 's going to be a father . and everybody 's happy about it . deacon : everybody ? i can think of somebody who 's probably not too ecstatic . eric : ridge , i have to say , i do n't think stephanie 's the only one in for a shock here . ridge : what do you mean ? eric : i know your mother . she 's worked too long and too hard to deceive brooke to just give up without a fight . ridge : it 's not gon na work . brooke 's onto her , though . eric : she 's suspicious . what she really wants is proof . ridge : you mean , like a confession ? eric : yeah , except i do n't think that 's gon na be forthcoming . look , your mother has brooke finally right where she wants her . she has brooke committed to a future with nick and she 's not gon na jeopardize that . ridge : well , you think she 's just gon na continue lying here ? eric : yeah , i think maybe she will . ridge : oh , brooke 's not gon na buy that , no way . eric : in which case , this confrontation could really turn ugly . ridge , your mother has never really ever forgiven brooke for everything she thinks that brooke did to this family . and she 's been holding all that animosity inside for a very long time . ridge : look , if brooke pushes mother enough , mother could very likely go off here . eric : you 're right . one wrong word , and i guarantee you , nobody 's walking away from this thing unscathed . stephanie : ridge was really angry when i saw him earlier this evening . i thought it was about you . brooke : do n't change the subject . we 're talking about you and your lies . stephanie : you told nick that ridge would always be a part of your life . brooke : nick knows that a part of me will always belong to ridge . stephanie : you slept with nick , did n't you ? well , why not ? i mean , he 's handsome , he 's charming , he whisks you off to paradise in his private jet . you put the baby down for a little nap . you 're alone on a secluded tropical beach . brooke : oh , stop it . stephanie : listen , there 's no shame in this . you 're going to marry him . the only strange thing about the whole thing probably was the fact that you finally slept with your own fiancé . brooke : i said stop it ! stephanie : that 's exactly what ridge said to me earlier when i told him you 'd probably already slept with nick . he was really angry . he knew because you told him . now , he does n't want to have anything to do with you , does he ? jackie : of course , i 've thought about ridge . deacon : well , let me ask you then . what do you think ? he 's celebrating the happy couple 's triumphant return ? jackie : no . no , of course , he 's not . but he is beginning to accept their relationship . deacon : accept ? in what parallel universe is this a reality ? i want to hear this one . jackie : deacon , he has to , does n't he ? nicky and brooke are engaged . deacon : that 's never stopped him in the past . jackie : but it 's too late now . deacon : no , do n't you get it ? you see , that 's the beautiful part about this twisted little dance these two do . it 's never too late for brooke and ridge . jackie : you do n't believe that . deacon : believe it , hell , i 've been a part of it . what are you talking about ? you know , brooke meets some guy , she 's gets all high on him , starts planning a future . jackie : excuse me -- deacon : planning a family . jackie : you do n't call my son `` some guy . `` deacon : okay , i -- jackie , i -- i 'm just trying to keep this conversation rooted in the smallest amount of reality here . jackie : but it 's not wishful thinking , deacon , it 's not . something happened in hawaii . deacon : okay , great , something happened in hawaii . they connected , big deal . jackie : yes , completely . deacon : what , you -- you mean , like , physically ? did he tell you that ? jackie : no . deacon : ah , ah , you see . you see . i knew it . jackie : not in so many words , but i know my son , deacon . i know nicky . i do . and i know that for the first time in their relationship , nicky believes that brooke really believes in him and -- why are you looking at me like that ? deacon : i 'm sorry , you just are so cute when you get angry like -- jackie : oh , stop it ! stop it ! deacon : okay , look , i hope you 're right . i do . but one weekend in hawaii away from their families , away from ridge , come on , that 's not iron - clad proof . jackie : let 's see . she 's accepted his proposal ; she went away with him , they 've moved on in their relationship to another level . i do n't know what more you want . deacon : i 'm not trying to be a buzz kill , jackie . jackie : really ? well , you are being a buzz kill because i came over here to share something with you . deacon : i know . jackie : something important to me . deacon : you came over , you wanted me to be happy for you . jackie : i thought you 'd understand , at least . deacon : oh , i do . jackie : yeah , then why are you acting like this ? deacon : jackie , i hope you 're right , i really do . but i do n't see what the hell any of this has to do with ridge . jackie : brooke has moved on . deacon : that does not mean that ridge has . jackie : well , he has to , does n't he ? he has to . nicky and brooke , they 've consummated their relationship . it 's over . deacon : okay , great , so what ? you know , they -- they consummated their relationship . i 'm telling you , from experience , jackie , look at me . this does n't mean anything to ridge . jackie : but it means something to brooke . it means a lot to brooke . it is very , very significant , deacon . nicky and brooke , they 're moving on with their lives together . it 's what we 've all been waiting for . and that leaves ridge free , he 's free to get on with his life , with his children . everything 's falling into place for everyone . eric : look , ridge , brooke knows now that stephanie 's been lying to her , so she 's not gon na be blindsided by that . ridge : she 's going to be furious , all right . i 'm talking a full head - on collision . eric : oh , god , you 're right . brooke just got off a plane . she 's jet - lagged , she 's pregnant , she 's in no shape to go 12 rounds with your mother . all right , i 'm going to -- i 'm gon na talk to stephanie , see if i get her to go easy on brooke . ridge : no , forget about the `` go easy `` part . she needs to back off completely . brooke needs her to stay away from her totally , dad . the last thing she needs right now is more of mother 's abuse . brooke : if nick and i did consummate the relationship , you said there was no shame . stephanie : i 'm all for it . i think it 's wonderful . i mean , after all these years , it 's finally over . i 'm free . you 're part of the marone family now . and my family has -- my family has regained its dignity and its pride and its unity . brooke : what unity ? eric came to me with the truth about your lies and your deception . he told me how much you hate me . stephanie : hate is such a simple word . my feelings for you go much deeper than that . brooke : well , they must , if this is how you 're treating me . stephanie : you were waffling and complaining the whole time . you kept saying , `` stephanie , i want to do the right thing , but i 'm so in love with ridge . `` i saw that you wanted my approval desperately . i knew you 'd do anything . brooke : yes , that 's right . i did . and you took advantage . stephanie : you made the decision to accept nick 's proposal . you chose your own path . you decided to sleep with nick . and you decided to tell ridge about it . brooke : i had to tell him the truth . stephanie : well , i applaud you for that . but you 're no longer his damsel in distress , are you ? you 've got nick 's ring on your finger . you 've got his child in your tummy . you consummated that relationship with nick while you were in hawaii , so i suggest that you hang onto nick . because i do n't think ridge is gon na have anything to do with you .
stephanie tries to keep up her lies when brooke confronts her with her new knowledge , but finally breaks and lets brooke know exactly how she really feels . ridge and eric discuss all that has happened in the past few hours , and decide to try to keep brooke and stephanie apart for awhile . they do n't know that they are already to late in doing that . jackie first visits her son to find out how things went in hawaii , and then instead of running home to massimo to celebrate , she runs to deacon 's house . deacon tries to get her to realize that things may still not turn out the way she wants them too , but jackie will not even consider that things are not perfect now .

[ doorbell rings ] deacon : hey , what are you doing here ? jackie : hi . um , i need a glass . and i need a drink . and i 'm gon na get one for you , too . deacon : jackie , if you 're looking for booze , you know , i do n't have any . jackie : oh , i know . that 's why i brought my own . and a root beer for you because we are celebrating and i want to make a toast . deacon : yeah . so , tell me , what are we -- how are we celebrating ? jackie : nicky and brooke are back from hawaii . deacon : i suppose i do n't need to ask if they had a good time , huh ? jackie : oh , yeah -- they had a wonderful , wonderful time . yeah , they really connected . deacon : that 's not your first drink tonight , is it ? jackie : what ? oh , come on , deacon , i 'm fine . i 'm fine . really . in fact , i 'm more than fine . everything is turning out just as i 'd hoped for . brooke is going to be my daughter - in - law . nicky 's going to be a father . and everybody 's happy about it . deacon : everybody ? i can think of somebody who 's probably not too ecstatic . eric : ridge , i have to say , i do n't think stephanie 's the only one in for a shock here . ridge : what do you mean ? eric : i know your mother . she 's worked too long and too hard to deceive brooke to just give up without a fight . ridge : it 's not gon na work . brooke 's onto her , though . eric : she 's suspicious . what she really wants is proof . ridge : you mean , like a confession ? eric : yeah , except i do n't think that 's gon na be forthcoming . look , your mother has brooke finally right where she wants her . she has brooke committed to a future with nick and she 's not gon na jeopardize that . ridge : well , you think she 's just gon na continue lying here ? eric : yeah , i think maybe she will . ridge : oh , brooke 's not gon na buy that , no way . eric : in which case , this confrontation could really turn ugly . ridge , your mother has never really ever forgiven brooke for everything she thinks that brooke did to this family . and she 's been holding all that animosity inside for a very long time . ridge : look , if brooke pushes mother enough , mother could very likely go off here . eric : you 're right . one wrong word , and i guarantee you , nobody 's walking away from this thing unscathed . stephanie : ridge was really angry when i saw him earlier this evening . i thought it was about you . brooke : do n't change the subject . we 're talking about you and your lies . stephanie : you told nick that ridge would always be a part of your life . brooke : nick knows that a part of me will always belong to ridge . stephanie : you slept with nick , did n't you ? well , why not ? i mean , he 's handsome , he 's charming , he whisks you off to paradise in his private jet . you put the baby down for a little nap . you 're alone on a secluded tropical beach . brooke : oh , stop it . stephanie : listen , there 's no shame in this . you 're going to marry him . the only strange thing about the whole thing probably was the fact that you finally slept with your own fiancé . brooke : i said stop it ! stephanie : that 's exactly what ridge said to me earlier when i told him you 'd probably already slept with nick . he was really angry . he knew because you told him . now , he does n't want to have anything to do with you , does he ? jackie : of course , i 've thought about ridge . deacon : well , let me ask you then . what do you think ? he 's celebrating the happy couple 's triumphant return ? jackie : no . no , of course , he 's not . but he is beginning to accept their relationship . deacon : accept ? in what parallel universe is this a reality ? i want to hear this one . jackie : deacon , he has to , does n't he ? nicky and brooke are engaged . deacon : that 's never stopped him in the past . jackie : but it 's too late now . deacon : no , do n't you get it ? you see , that 's the beautiful part about this twisted little dance these two do . it 's never too late for brooke and ridge . jackie : you do n't believe that . deacon : believe it , hell , i 've been a part of it . what are you talking about ? you know , brooke meets some guy , she 's gets all high on him , starts planning a future . jackie : excuse me -- deacon : planning a family . jackie : you do n't call my son `` some guy . `` deacon : okay , i -- jackie , i -- i 'm just trying to keep this conversation rooted in the smallest amount of reality here . jackie : but it 's not wishful thinking , deacon , it 's not . something happened in hawaii . deacon : okay , great , something happened in hawaii . they connected , big deal . jackie : yes , completely . deacon : what , you -- you mean , like , physically ? did he tell you that ? jackie : no . deacon : ah , ah , you see . you see . i knew it . jackie : not in so many words , but i know my son , deacon . i know nicky . i do . and i know that for the first time in their relationship , nicky believes that brooke really believes in him and -- why are you looking at me like that ? deacon : i 'm sorry , you just are so cute when you get angry like -- jackie : oh , stop it ! stop it ! deacon : okay , look , i hope you 're right . i do . but one weekend in hawaii away from their families , away from ridge , come on , that 's not iron - clad proof . jackie : let 's see . she 's accepted his proposal ; she went away with him , they 've moved on in their relationship to another level . i do n't know what more you want . deacon : i 'm not trying to be a buzz kill , jackie . jackie : really ? well , you are being a buzz kill because i came over here to share something with you . deacon : i know . jackie : something important to me . deacon : you came over , you wanted me to be happy for you . jackie : i thought you 'd understand , at least . deacon : oh , i do . jackie : yeah , then why are you acting like this ? deacon : jackie , i hope you 're right , i really do . but i do n't see what the hell any of this has to do with ridge . jackie : brooke has moved on . deacon : that does not mean that ridge has . jackie : well , he has to , does n't he ? he has to . nicky and brooke , they 've consummated their relationship . it 's over . deacon : okay , great , so what ? you know , they -- they consummated their relationship . i 'm telling you , from experience , jackie , look at me . this does n't mean anything to ridge . jackie : but it means something to brooke . it means a lot to brooke . it is very , very significant , deacon . nicky and brooke , they 're moving on with their lives together . it 's what we 've all been waiting for . and that leaves ridge free , he 's free to get on with his life , with his children . everything 's falling into place for everyone . eric : look , ridge , brooke knows now that stephanie 's been lying to her , so she 's not gon na be blindsided by that . ridge : she 's going to be furious , all right . i 'm talking a full head - on collision . eric : oh , god , you 're right . brooke just got off a plane . she 's jet - lagged , she 's pregnant , she 's in no shape to go 12 rounds with your mother . all right , i 'm going to -- i 'm gon na talk to stephanie , see if i get her to go easy on brooke . ridge : no , forget about the `` go easy `` part . she needs to back off completely . brooke needs her to stay away from her totally , dad . the last thing she needs right now is more of mother 's abuse . brooke : if nick and i did consummate the relationship , you said there was no shame . stephanie : i 'm all for it . i think it 's wonderful . i mean , after all these years , it 's finally over . i 'm free . you 're part of the marone family now . and my family has -- my family has regained its dignity and its pride and its unity . brooke : what unity ? eric came to me with the truth about your lies and your deception . he told me how much you hate me . stephanie : hate is such a simple word . my feelings for you go much deeper than that . brooke : well , they must , if this is how you 're treating me . stephanie : you were waffling and complaining the whole time . you kept saying , `` stephanie , i want to do the right thing , but i 'm so in love with ridge . `` i saw that you wanted my approval desperately . i knew you 'd do anything . brooke : yes , that 's right . i did . and you took advantage . stephanie : you made the decision to accept nick 's proposal . you chose your own path . you decided to sleep with nick . and you decided to tell ridge about it . brooke : i had to tell him the truth . stephanie : well , i applaud you for that . but you 're no longer his damsel in distress , are you ? you 've got nick 's ring on your finger . you 've got his child in your tummy . you consummated that relationship with nick while you were in hawaii , so i suggest that you hang onto nick . because i do n't think ridge is gon na have anything to do with you .Summarize.[/INST]stephanie tries to keep up her lies when brooke confronts her with her new knowledge , but finally breaks and lets brooke know exactly how she really feels . ridge and eric discuss all that has happened in the past few hours , and decide to try to keep brooke and stephanie apart for awhile . they do n't know that they are already to late in doing that . jackie first visits her son to find out how things went in hawaii , and then instead of running home to massimo to celebrate , she runs to deacon 's house . deacon tries to get her to realize that things may still not turn out the way she wants them too , but jackie will not even consider that things are not perfect now .</s>

ted : xander , stop , please . xander : like i said , you already know too much , and now that you 've figured out that nicole and i are in cahoots , well , that 's just one more reason for you to die . ted : no . hey . we can work out some kind of a deal . xander : and why would i want to do that ? you 've been a very naughty boy , ted . sneaking into my room and taking things that do n't belong to you . ted : holly 's original autopsy report -- the one that proves she did not really die in that car crash . when i showed it to nicole , that 's when she knocked me out and dragged me down here . xander : well , she had a little bit of help with that , thank you very much . ted : xander , all i said was we need to tell the news to everyone about holly . but she said no . i just do n't understand why -- why she would want to have everyone believe that her daughter is dead . why ? nicole : i am not getting into this with you . sami : listen , you are going to hear me out , nicole . losing your child is the worst sort of grief . and i know better than anyone that grief can make you say and do terrible things , but nicole , this is not eric 's fault . he loved and adored your daughter . he is devastated -- nicole : just save it . i 've heard the sob story already . sami : it is n't a sob story . it is the truth . nicole : look , i do n't know what your brother told you , but all i know when i was trapped in that fire : i asked him to do one thing , and that was to take care of my daughter . he swore that he would protect her , and now she 's dead . sami : okay . he 's devastated by that . i mean , he feels terrible . he -- nicole : okay , eric could n't keep his promise . he failed at it , okay ?

eric being too weak and too stupid to come through for me . `` oh , i do n't know if i 'll be a great dad , and i 'm the drunk that killed daniel '' -- sami : okay , stop it . nicole : `` and oh , now i got so scared from that stupid letter that i have nicole 's baby to chloe , the stupid bimbo , and i let holly move in to the dimera mansion , where she might be kidnapped by a drug cartel and blown to bits . so what ? `` sami : what are you talking about ? if eric could go back and change it , he would . nicole : well , he can't . so why do n't you get this through your thick head . it is over between me and eric . oh , and just hearing him weep and grovel makes me sick to my stomach , so i 'm going to tell you and everyone else all over again : i do n't want him . sami : wait a second . he does n't want you either . nicole : oh , look at that . he 's giving up just like he did on holly . well , i 'm here to tell you , thank god he finally took a hint . sami : you are unbelievable . i mean , i get it . grief does crazy things to people , but unbelievably , grief has made you an even bigger bitch . so i do n't feel bad about telling you what i really think . nicole : oh , goodie . sami : when eric told me that he 'd finally , finally given up on any sort of future with you , i celebrated . i celebrated the fact that he was finally gon na be free of your baby - stealing , child - snatching , soul - sucking drama . thank god . he can finally move on and forget all about you and he can finally find a woman who will appreciate what a wonderful man he is . nicole : oh , oh , can i guess ? can i guess ? would that be sarah horton ? eric : getting married now ? rex : well , i 've been -- i 've been trying to convince my beautiful fiancée here there 's no better time than the present . and obviously , we did n't want to do anything while will was in the middle of his crisis , but now that he 's through it , why wait ? eric : what about dad ? you know , and kate and maggie ? rex : no , no , i understand , but we talked about all that and , um ... they want us to have a big wedding , and we do n't want that . and plus , think about it , man . the timing is really bad right now because dad just lost his mom , and maggie is still heartsick over holly , and my mom wants to be there for will . eric : right . it -- it 's kind of all of the sudden , do n't you think ? rex : yeah , but ... if i learned anything from watching sonny and will all throughout will 's situation , it 's that your life can change in an instant . and you should never postpone happiness . you know ? and there are so many things in my life that i thought were important , and they 're just not important to me anymore . like ... sarah . like , all i want is you . all i ever want is you . you are -- you 're a brilliant doctor , but even more than that , you 're a phenomenal woman . i mean , you 're here . you 're from here . salem . and you -- you 're a spaz when you dance . and you play darts with me at 2 : 00 in the morning and -- and kick my ass , by the way . and you 're never afraid to speak your mind and be who you are . and who you are , quite frankly , is a person that i do n't deserve . sarah : rex -- rex : no , listen . when i hurt you , you had every right , every reason in the world to walk away and kick me out of your life forever , and being faced with that , being faced with losing the best thing that ever happened to me , i ... i could n't deal with it . i knew i needed to win you back , and i did n't know how . and the person that helped me the most with that , more than anyone else ... was my brother eric . eric : no , i -- rex : no , listen . you took me and you let me crash at your place . and you talked to me and you listened to me . and you , above all else , encouraged me to never stop fighting for sarah . and your love for nicole through the good times and the bad , man -- even through death , you never gave up on her . nothing and no one was gon na make you give up , and ... that kind of love ... that 's an inspiration .

[ tense music ] [ laughs ] a bribe ? really , ted ? i could just shoot you and take the necklace . ted : it 's true . it 's true . but i want you to consider this very expensive piece of jewelry as a small token of my true value . xander : i used to deal in diamonds , and that bling is the real deal , but i have no use for it . ted : okay , how about a free pass with the law ? do you have a use for that ? xander : meaning what ? ted : look , i have a standing from the new police commissioner and the new mayor to return as salem 's da permanently . you got ta agree with me . i would be much more valuable to you alive than dead . kate : so what do you make of it ? stefan hiring nicole . victor : nothing good . kate : you know , gabi hernandez told me that she overheard nicole on the phone the other day . she was telling someone that she almost has everything she ever wanted and they better not screw it up . victor : so you think nicole was talking to xander ? kate : well , i do n't know . could be . remember , i saw them shaking hands together outside of her room . now she 's working for dimera . he works for titan . maybe -- maybe they are working together -- working together using both companies for some secret ends . victor : well , i 've learned not to underestimate either one of those nitwits . what they lack in intellect , they make up for in bad intentions . no , i ca n't afford any distractions right now . kate : i assume you 're talking about maggie . how is she doing ? victor : she 's going to meetings , but i 'm still very concerned . when she was on that bender , she went over to nicole 's room at the salem inn . she swears that kristen dimera answered the door . kate : [ exhales emphatically ] well , kristen 's dead , so ... victor : some people see pink elephants . maggie sees the devil in a red dress . nicole : i already gave sarah and eric my blessing . i just pray that they get together soon so everyone gets off my back . sami : well , for once , we actually agree on something . you are such a heartless slut , and you have chewed and spit out more men than you can count . i 'm thrilled that you 're gon na end up alone and that eric can finally move on and leave you in his dust . just like brady did . oh , yes . i heard all about the way you threw yourself at brady right after your daughter 's funeral . nicole : that is none of your business . sami : hurts , does n't it ? knowing brady wo n't touch you with a ten - foot - pole . nicole : [ grunts ] you bitch ! sami : yeah , you started it , but i 'm gon na finish it . nicole : agh ! sami : what is that ? nicole : [ grunts , gasps ] [ intense music ] eric : i fought to be with nicole , but she does n't want to be with me now for the role i played in holly 's death , and that may never change . rex : sarah hated me after i broke her heart . and with eric 's help , i was able to win you back . so you know what we got ta do ? we got ta help eric win back nicole . eric : i 'm not sure that 's what i want now . get ready for the insurance - themed experience rex : wha -- is n't nicole the love of your life like sarah 's the love of mine ?

[ both screaming at once ] brady : what the hell are you doing ? what are you doing ? sami : that crazy bitch is hiding something ! you try hard , ted : xander , i do n't blame you for not being able to pull the trigger . i have represented many murderers through my career , and the act of killing always haunts them forever . xander : trust me , i wo n't lose any sleep over this . ted : i do n't believe that . you have a conscience . i can see this . xander : stop talking . ted : really , xander ? a hired gun ? a hit man ? this is not what you want to do . you want respect . xander : i 'll have you know that i am a high - ranking executive at titan industries . ted : really ? yet there you are , following orders , xander . xander : it was n't my idea , okay ? i ... i do n't want your blood on my hands , and not because i 've gone soft . it happens to work directly against my goal . ted : this is about a woman . xander : sarah horton . i 've been trying to impress her . and handing that diary over so she could save her cousin 's life , that scored me some major points . but then you went and stole that autopsy report . so now i 'm stuck down here doing nicole 's dirty work instead of up there proving myself to sarah . ted : xander ! i made a mistake . xander : a big one . your sticky fingers got us into this mess , and unfortunately for you ... ted : come on . xander : there 's no way out . eric : i 'm not a priest anymore . rex : yeah , but you told me a lot of your former parishioners asked you to perform their ceremonies , so you got ordained online . eric : yes , but ... is this what you want ? sarah : um , eric ... you and i have gotten so close , and ... what i want ... what i really want in my heart is ... for you to perform the ceremony where i make a lifetime commitment to your brother . rex : this is so great . we 're gon na have a wedding ! tell you what ? we are gon na go get changed and we 'll meet you in the chapel . ted : xander , think about sarah . you 're a hero in her eyes . do n't ruin it by killing me . xander : she 'll never know . ted : no , but you will . you will , xander . and even if you win her over , you 'll always have that secret . always . you will always know that you 're not truly worthy of her . sarah deserves to be more than just another con job . does n't she feel like you want to be a better man for real ? come on , xander . xander : she does . you know , i 've been with a lot of women , but ... sarah 's the first one that ever made me want to change my ways . ted : well , i ... i completely understand that . that was my only motivation to bring that autopsy report back to nicole -- is to show hope brady that i am worthy of her love . xander : look at us . two bad boys trying to win the love of a good woman . you know , if this gets out , our reputations will be ruined . ted : i wo n't tell if you won't . xander : like i said , i 'm not going soft ... but you do make a compelling case , counselor . so ... i 've decided to let you live . at least for another day . ted : xander , wait . i bought that necklace for hope . i want you to have it . give it to sarah . show her how dedicated you are to becoming a better man . xander : cheers . sami : there is something weird on nicole 's neck , but she wo n't let me see it . nicole : it 's a scar , okay ? one of the many horrible reminders of what happened the night i almost died in the fire . and after everything that happened with ej , i would think you would be more sensitive . sami : well , i 'm not . so let me see it . [ all shouting at once ] nicole : i 'm not ready to let anyone see my body , okay ? you know what ? fine . sami , if you really need to see it -- brady : no , no , hold on , hold on . no . it 's not necessary . sami : the hell it 's not .

[ gentle music ] [ music darkens ] sami : this is about you , eric . i want you to be happy , and i think sarah could make you happy . she seems lovely , so you should go after her . eric : i 'm glad you 're here . i need to say something to sarah , and you need to hear this too . male announcer : like sands through the hourglass , so are the `` days of our lives . `` [ soft orchestration ] hope : brady . brady : sorry . hope : [ stammers ] you took me totally by surprise . brady : i know . i did n't mean to do that . i 'm sorry . i 'm also sorry -- very sorry -- about caroline . hope : thank you . what are you doing here ? brady : i 'm here to talk to nicole . i got some very surprising news . something about her taking a job at dimera . why are you here ? hope : i 'm looking for ted laurent . ted : your partner ... it 's nicole walker . it has to be . xander : give the man a prize . how does a bullet to the brain sound ? ted : xander , stop , please . xander : like i said , you already know too much , and now that you 've figured out that nicole and i are in cahoots , well , that 's just one more reason for you to die . ted : no . hey . we can work out some kind of a deal . xander : and why would i want to do that ? you 've been a very naughty boy , ted . sneaking into my room and taking things that do n't belong to you . ted : holly 's original autopsy report -- the one that proves she did not really die in that car crash . when i showed it to nicole , that 's when she knocked me out and dragged me down here . xander : well , she had a little bit of help with that , thank you very much . ted : xander , all i said was we need to tell the news to everyone about holly . but she said no . i just do n't understand why -- why she would want to have everyone believe that her daughter is dead . why ? nicole : i am not getting into this with you . sami : listen , you are going to hear me out , nicole . losing your child is the worst sort of grief . and i know better than anyone that grief can make you say and do terrible things , but nicole , this is not eric 's fault . he loved and adored your daughter . he is devastated -- nicole : just save it . i 've heard the sob story already . sami : it is n't a sob story . it is the truth . nicole : look , i do n't know what your brother told you , but all i know when i was trapped in that fire : i asked him to do one thing , and that was to take care of my daughter . he swore that he would protect her , and now she 's dead . sami : okay . he 's devastated by that . i mean , he feels terrible . he -- nicole : okay , eric could n't keep his promise . he failed at it , okay ? so as far as i 'm concerned , he is the reason my daughter is gone . sami : i 'm so sorry . nicole : and i do n't care ! just get the hell out of my face . eric : sarah , i ... rex : eric , listen . i totally want to hear what you have to say , but i just -- i have this news -- we have this news -- sarah : wait , rex . we should -- wait , wait , wait . rex : i do n't want to wait any longer , honey . listen . sarah and i , we 're getting married . right now . nicole : i know you 've been off in europe smothering ej , so i 'm gon na do you a favor and i 'm gon na get you up to speed . i told eric over and over again , i do n't care how many times he apologizes or how many tears he weeps . i will never forgive him for letting my daughter die in that crash . sami : that is so not fair . nicole : oh , you wan na know what 's not fair ? eric being too weak and too stupid to come through for me . `` oh , i do n't know if i 'll be a great dad , and i 'm the drunk that killed daniel '' -- sami : okay , stop it . nicole : `` and oh , now i got so scared from that stupid letter that i have nicole 's baby to chloe , the stupid bimbo , and i let holly move in to the dimera mansion , where she might be kidnapped by a drug cartel and blown to bits . so what ? `` sami : what are you talking about ? if eric could go back and change it , he would . nicole : well , he can't . so why do n't you get this through your thick head . it is over between me and eric . oh , and just hearing him weep and grovel makes me sick to my stomach , so i 'm going to tell you and everyone else all over again : i do n't want him . sami : wait a second . he does n't want you either . nicole : oh , look at that . he 's giving up just like he did on holly . well , i 'm here to tell you , thank god he finally took a hint . sami : you are unbelievable . i mean , i get it . grief does crazy things to people , but unbelievably , grief has made you an even bigger bitch . so i do n't feel bad about telling you what i really think . nicole : oh , goodie . sami : when eric told me that he 'd finally , finally given up on any sort of future with you , i celebrated . i celebrated the fact that he was finally gon na be free of your baby - stealing , child - snatching , soul - sucking drama . thank god . he can finally move on and forget all about you and he can finally find a woman who will appreciate what a wonderful man he is . nicole : oh , oh , can i guess ? can i guess ? would that be sarah horton ? eric : getting married now ? rex : well , i 've been -- i 've been trying to convince my beautiful fiancée here there 's no better time than the present . and obviously , we did n't want to do anything while will was in the middle of his crisis , but now that he 's through it , why wait ? eric : what about dad ? you know , and kate and maggie ? rex : no , no , i understand , but we talked about all that and , um ... they want us to have a big wedding , and we do n't want that . and plus , think about it , man . the timing is really bad right now because dad just lost his mom , and maggie is still heartsick over holly , and my mom wants to be there for will . eric : right . it -- it 's kind of all of the sudden , do n't you think ? rex : yeah , but ... if i learned anything from watching sonny and will all throughout will 's situation , it 's that your life can change in an instant . and you should never postpone happiness . you know ? and there are so many things in my life that i thought were important , and they 're just not important to me anymore . like ... sarah . like , all i want is you . all i ever want is you . you are -- you 're a brilliant doctor , but even more than that , you 're a phenomenal woman . i mean , you 're here . you 're from here . salem . and you -- you 're a spaz when you dance . and you play darts with me at 2 : 00 in the morning and -- and kick my ass , by the way . and you 're never afraid to speak your mind and be who you are . and who you are , quite frankly , is a person that i do n't deserve . sarah : rex -- rex : no , listen . when i hurt you , you had every right , every reason in the world to walk away and kick me out of your life forever , and being faced with that , being faced with losing the best thing that ever happened to me , i ... i could n't deal with it . i knew i needed to win you back , and i did n't know how . and the person that helped me the most with that , more than anyone else ... was my brother eric . eric : no , i -- rex : no , listen . you took me and you let me crash at your place . and you talked to me and you listened to me . and you , above all else , encouraged me to never stop fighting for sarah . and your love for nicole through the good times and the bad , man -- even through death , you never gave up on her . nothing and no one was gon na make you give up , and ... that kind of love ... that 's an inspiration . [ soft music ] victor : thank you for your kind words , but i know you did n't come all the way over here to express your sympathies . kate : well , actually , we do have some business to discuss . i just learned that stefan has hired nicole to bring basic black back from the dead . victor : yes , i did hear that unfortunate piece of news . hope : i do n't know . i 've been calling , texting . ted is completely mia . brady : well , when was the last you heard from him ? hope : last night . he left me a message saying he had good news about nicole . he said he needed to talk to her first and he 'd come find me , but the thing is , he never did , which is why i decided to come here today -- to see if nicole had seen him or talked to ted . she said she had n't , and then she just rushed off . brady : well , that 's just weird . hope : it gets even weirder . after she left , i called ted 's phone , and i heard a phone ringing in nicole 's room . brady : well , now , come on . that has to be a coincidence , right ? hope : my gut says it 's not . brady : you think that ted laurent is in nicole 's room ? hope : at the very least , his phone might be . brady : well , there 's one way to find out . call again and see if it rings . hope : my thoughts exactly . great minds do think alike , do n't they ? [ phone line trilling ] xander : as much as i would love to stick around here and have you interrogate me all day , i have other matters to attend to , so let 's get -- ted : wait ! xander , wait . look , i have something for you . xander : do n't even think about it .

[ ominous music ] brady : see ? coincidence . hope : maybe . brady : i 'll walk you out . ted : i 'm not armed . i just have something in my pocket i want to show you . xander : thanks , but no thanks . ted : xander , it is of great monetary value . xander : okay . slowly . [ tense music ] [ laughs ] a bribe ? really , ted ? i could just shoot you and take the necklace . ted : it 's true . it 's true . but i want you to consider this very expensive piece of jewelry as a small token of my true value . xander : i used to deal in diamonds , and that bling is the real deal , but i have no use for it . ted : okay , how about a free pass with the law ? do you have a use for that ? xander : meaning what ? ted : look , i have a standing from the new police commissioner and the new mayor to return as salem 's da permanently . you got ta agree with me . i would be much more valuable to you alive than dead . kate : so what do you make of it ? stefan hiring nicole . victor : nothing good . kate : you know , gabi hernandez told me that she overheard nicole on the phone the other day . she was telling someone that she almost has everything she ever wanted and they better not screw it up . victor : so you think nicole was talking to xander ? kate : well , i do n't know . could be . remember , i saw them shaking hands together outside of her room . now she 's working for dimera . he works for titan . maybe -- maybe they are working together -- working together using both companies for some secret ends . victor : well , i 've learned not to underestimate either one of those nitwits . what they lack in intellect , they make up for in bad intentions . no , i ca n't afford any distractions right now . kate : i assume you 're talking about maggie . how is she doing ? victor : she 's going to meetings , but i 'm still very concerned . when she was on that bender , she went over to nicole 's room at the salem inn . she swears that kristen dimera answered the door . kate : [ exhales emphatically ] well , kristen 's dead , so ... victor : some people see pink elephants . maggie sees the devil in a red dress . nicole : i already gave sarah and eric my blessing . i just pray that they get together soon so everyone gets off my back . sami : well , for once , we actually agree on something . you are such a heartless slut , and you have chewed and spit out more men than you can count . i 'm thrilled that you 're gon na end up alone and that eric can finally move on and leave you in his dust . just like brady did . oh , yes . i heard all about the way you threw yourself at brady right after your daughter 's funeral . nicole : that is none of your business . sami : hurts , does n't it ? knowing brady wo n't touch you with a ten - foot - pole . nicole : [ grunts ] you bitch ! sami : yeah , you started it , but i 'm gon na finish it . nicole : agh ! sami : what is that ? nicole : [ grunts , gasps ] [ intense music ] eric : i fought to be with nicole , but she does n't want to be with me now for the role i played in holly 's death , and that may never change . rex : sarah hated me after i broke her heart . and with eric 's help , i was able to win you back . so you know what we got ta do ? we got ta help eric win back nicole . eric : i 'm not sure that 's what i want now . get ready for the insurance - themed experience rex : wha -- is n't nicole the love of your life like sarah 's the love of mine ? [ somber music ] eric : yes . sarah : [ clears throat ] you know what ? you 're right . there 's no reason to wait . let 's get married . let 's do it right now . rex : that 's ...

[ both screaming at once ] brady : what the hell are you doing ? what are you doing ? sami : that crazy bitch is hiding something ! you try hard , ted : xander , i do n't blame you for not being able to pull the trigger . i have represented many murderers through my career , and the act of killing always haunts them forever . xander : trust me , i wo n't lose any sleep over this . ted : i do n't believe that . you have a conscience . i can see this . xander : stop talking . ted : really , xander ? a hired gun ? a hit man ? this is not what you want to do . you want respect . xander : i 'll have you know that i am a high - ranking executive at titan industries . ted : really ? yet there you are , following orders , xander . xander : it was n't my idea , okay ? i ... i do n't want your blood on my hands , and not because i 've gone soft . it happens to work directly against my goal . ted : this is about a woman . xander : sarah horton . i 've been trying to impress her . and handing that diary over so she could save her cousin 's life , that scored me some major points . but then you went and stole that autopsy report . so now i 'm stuck down here doing nicole 's dirty work instead of up there proving myself to sarah . ted : xander ! i made a mistake . xander : a big one . your sticky fingers got us into this mess , and unfortunately for you ... ted : come on . xander : there 's no way out . eric : i 'm not a priest anymore . rex : yeah , but you told me a lot of your former parishioners asked you to perform their ceremonies , so you got ordained online . eric : yes , but ... is this what you want ? sarah : um , eric ... you and i have gotten so close , and ... what i want ... what i really want in my heart is ... for you to perform the ceremony where i make a lifetime commitment to your brother . rex : this is so great . we 're gon na have a wedding ! tell you what ? we are gon na go get changed and we 'll meet you in the chapel . ted : xander , think about sarah . you 're a hero in her eyes . do n't ruin it by killing me . xander : she 'll never know . ted : no , but you will . you will , xander . and even if you win her over , you 'll always have that secret . always . you will always know that you 're not truly worthy of her . sarah deserves to be more than just another con job . does n't she feel like you want to be a better man for real ? come on , xander . xander : she does . you know , i 've been with a lot of women , but ... sarah 's the first one that ever made me want to change my ways . ted : well , i ... i completely understand that . that was my only motivation to bring that autopsy report back to nicole -- is to show hope brady that i am worthy of her love . xander : look at us . two bad boys trying to win the love of a good woman . you know , if this gets out , our reputations will be ruined . ted : i wo n't tell if you won't . xander : like i said , i 'm not going soft ... but you do make a compelling case , counselor . so ... i 've decided to let you live . at least for another day . ted : xander , wait . i bought that necklace for hope . i want you to have it . give it to sarah . show her how dedicated you are to becoming a better man . xander : cheers . sami : there is something weird on nicole 's neck , but she wo n't let me see it . nicole : it 's a scar , okay ? one of the many horrible reminders of what happened the night i almost died in the fire . and after everything that happened with ej , i would think you would be more sensitive . sami : well , i 'm not . so let me see it . [ all shouting at once ] nicole : i 'm not ready to let anyone see my body , okay ? you know what ? fine . sami , if you really need to see it -- brady : no , no , hold on , hold on . no . it 's not necessary . sami : the hell it 's not . [ all talking at once ] lucas : enough . come on . let 's go . sami : lucas , i do n't think we should go . brady : go . sami : you are not getting away with this , nicole . brady : well ... sami has n't lost any of her aggressiveness , as you can see . this is n't about some scars , though , is it ? nicole : no . it was just mostly about eric . i am so tired of having to defend how i feel about him . and just like i told you and everyone else , it 's over . brady : i know . you told me that , but i ... i still think you 're gon na change your mind about that in time , nicole . look , listen . listen , i wanted to talk to you about something , because this surprised me . did stefan offer you a job ? nicole : a good one . brady : okay , well , why would you work at dimera when you could come work for me ? kate : you know , nicole lives near me now . i can stop by her room , find a way to get in , and take a look around . victor : if you could do that , i would be very grateful . kate : hey , anything to support titan 's bottom line . victor : ah , well , i 'm not so much concerned about the company as i am about my grandson . i think nicole 's trying to seduce him . kate : oh , come on . it 's very hard to believe he would go anywhere near that again . victor : would n't you think ? after all the time i 've spent warning him about that harpy . it seems that all my warnings have fallen on deaf ears . brady : nicole , do n't work for stefan . okay ? the guy 's a dirtbag and he 's running dimera into the ground . nicole : i 'm going to help him right the ship . brady : [ sighs ] i do n't want you to waste your talent on him . i want you to work for titan . i could use your skills and your -- and your passion . nicole : i 'm nothing if not passionate . so ... if you 're willing to work with me ... am i wrong to think there 's a chance for us to be together again ? once- daily toujeo helps you control your blood sugar . brady : you know -- you know i ca n't do this , right ? nicole : why not ? why ? you obviously still feel our connection . brady : look at me . you 're grieving . and you 're just trying to find something safe and familiar right now . nicole : brady , almost dying changed me . my needs . my desires . i want to start over ... with you . brady : even -- no . even if that was true , i 'm not ... i 'm not gon na hurt eric again . the man loves you . and i do n't think you 're gon na realize it for a long time , nicole , but you do love him too . and i ca n't -- i 'm not -- i ca n't get in the way of that . nicole : i understand . and i ... i guess you 've given me a reason to turn down your offer . and you 're right . i mean , working side by side every day ... it could be hurtful to eric . brady : so you 're gon na sticl with dimera . nicole : i 'm afraid so . but , brady ... you are still the one and only person in this town that i trust . brady : well , then maybe you could share with me you 're good news . nicole : [ laughs nervously ] what do you mean ? brady : what do i mean ? i ran into hope earlier , in the ... salem inn -- actually , in the hallway outside of your room , and she was looking for ted laurent , and apparently , ted had some good news for you ? nicole : oh , well , i 'm -- as i told hope , i mean , i have no idea what ted wanted . i guess we 'll just have to wait and -- and see . well , you know , i 'm not really feeling so good since i -- my run - in with sami . i 'm gon na ... i 'm gon na go . brady : hold on , hold on . i 'll let you go -- i 'll let you go in just -- it 's really strange because when i ran into hope , she was calling ted and she swore that she heard a phone ringing inside of your room . she tried -- she tried his number again and did n't hear anything , but i think she 's wondering about it . it 's -- what 's going on ? nicole : [ laughing ] brady . that was probably my phone . i mean , i left it in my room by mistake . brady : yeah . i figured it was probably a ... coincidence . you know . nicole : well , if you 'll excuse me , i 'm gon na go lie down .

dr. obrecht : and that one is done . now if only i could get a final rehearsal schedule for the nurses ' ball from that woman , the world would become a better place . franco : dr. obrecht . dr. obrecht : [ gasps ] the world just became better . franco , liebchen , i 'm so happy to see you . no need to stand on ceremony . you know you can call me liesl . franco : okay . hello , liesl . dr. obrecht : uh , we 're all so happy to see you , and you 've really been missed , and not just by the staff , but by the patients . franco : oh , i doubt that . dr. obrecht : nein . in fact , you have been in my thoughts ever since i learned you were granted your freedom . please tell me that you 're ready to return to work . franco : no , i 'm not here about a job . dr. obrecht : then what is the nature of your visit ? franco : i 'm here about nina . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] nina : hey . what a surprise . nathan : may i come in ? nina : of course . why are you limping ? what 's wrong ? nathan : i , uh , went over a fence chasing a perp . i think i landed wrong . nina : you should be resting . nathan : i ca n't , not with an open kidnapping on the books . nina : oh , right . yeah . how 's that going ? have they found baby aj ? nathan : no , unfortunately . at the moment , she 's still missing . [ scene_break ] carly : hey . did n't expect to see you here . sonny : i need to talk to you . carly : okay . what 's , um ... hey , what 's going on ? sonny : [ sighs ] carly : is it about the baby ? did they find her ? sonny : i was just at elq with michael and morgan . carly : okay , how was that ? enlightening . sonny : everything that 's happened to michael , morgan is responsible . carly : responsible how ? sonny : morgan and kiki drugged michael . [ scene_break ] michael : so , morgan and kiki drugged me to make me look unfit . and why not put the nail in my coffin and frame me for kidnapping my sister , too ? sabrina : okay , michael , slow down . look , i know that you have every right to be angry . you just -- michael : i - i am so far beyond angry , but i ca n't -- i ca n't think about that right now . all that matters is bringing my sister home . sabrina : okay , but it 's not your job to prove that morgan and kiki are kidnappers , okay ? you should just leave that to the police . michael : you 're right . i 'm calling the cops . [ scene_break ] [ door opens ] morgan : you know , if -- if michael decides to press charges , and let 's face it , he 's probably gon na do that , i 'm gon na take the rap . [ door closes ] kiki : no . morgan : yes . yes . it was my idea . you were uncomfortable from the beginning . kiki : but i still went through with it . morgan : i do n't -- i do n't care . i 'm not gon na sit here and argue with you . kiki : morgan , look . my god , morgan . [ chuckles ] avery 's home . [ scene_break ] michael : dante . uh , thanks for coming so quickly . dante : yeah , what 's up ? you said it was urgent . michael : yeah , it 's related to aj 's disappearance . dante : well , i 'm open to hearing any and all leads . we 've been working around the clock to find her . michael : well , you can start by arresting morgan and kiki . dante : what for ? michael : [ inhales deeply ] for drugging me with these . [ scene_break ] carly : you want to run that by me again ? morgan and kiki were drugging michael ? sonny : i hate it on every level , but it 's true . carly : how ? sonny : you know that michael takes that seasonal allergy pill , right ? carly : yeah , for ragweeds . sonny : right . well , kiki and morgan swapped out the allergy pills for pills that acted like a roofie . so when michael , you know , took the pills , and then he had a drink , it heightened the effect of the alcohol . carly : and left him impaired . sonny : so , whatever happened in the lobby was caused by the drug . carly : [ sighs ] how did you find this all out ? sonny : sabrina santiago tested one of the pills . now , i 'm telling you , i thought that michael was going right to the bottle , like aj , but you know what ? at least that 's not -- that 's not happening , okay ? carly : we should have trusted him . sonny : well ... carly : we raised him . we raised a strong man , and we should have trusted him . i 've got to see him . i have to make sure ... sonny : no , no , he 's fine . carly , i promise you he 's fine . he 's with sa -- sabrina . carly : thank god . sabrina -- thank god for her . thank god she cared enough to dig deeper , you know ? to figure out what morgan was doing . morgan . what he was doing to his own brother . wait till i get my hands on him . [ scene_break ] kiki : oh , avery , my sweet , sweet sister , you 're back . morgan : is she okay ? kiki : you 're really here . morgan : do you think she 's all right ? kiki : i think she 's fine .

[ chuckles ] morgan : how did -- kiki : i 'm so glad to see you . morgan : how did she get in the apartment ? kiki : oh . morgan : and more importantly , where has she been ? [ avery screams playfully ] [ scene_break ] nina : i ca n't believe there are no , um , leads in the kidnapping . that 's really ... so tough . that sweet , little baby who 's out there with who knows who . nathan : yeah . well , and a missing - child case is always tough , but , you know , right now , we just want to bring her home safely . nina : right . so , i hear that , um , your lead suspect is michael quartermaine . that 's got to be ... tough . he lost custody to ex . nathan : yeah . yeah , we 're still trying to verify michael 's whereabouts at the time of the kidnapping . nina : what was he doing ? nathan : well , he says that he was going out for a drive , but we have n't been able to find anybody to corroborate that . nina : that 's a really weak alibi . nathan : well , and he 's a quartermaine . that means he has the resources to secret aj away and keep her there for a really long time . nina : mm . nathan : so , yeah , to answer your question , michael is a suspect . but he 's not the only person that we 're investigating . nina : [ sighs ] nathan : unfortunately , nina , you are the other suspect . [ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : nina ? oh , yes , your erstwhile roommate . franco : right . and more importantly , your niece . dr. obrecht : what about her ? franco : she told me that you paid her a surprise visit yesterday . dr. obrecht : i see that meine nichte has been tattling on me . franco : you said some pretty horrible things . dr. obrecht : i do n't know what you 're talking about . franco : you basically accused her of waltzing out of here with aj or avery or whatever that kids ' name is now . dr. obrecht : i do n't believe i used the terming `` waltzing . `` i might have suggested that nina procured a child that did n't belong to her . considering nina 's history , i do n't believe i 'm mistaken in the assumption . franco : nina told me that she did not kidnap that baby , and there is no evidence to suggest that she has . dr. obrecht : [ scoffs ] actually , there is some evidence that implicates nina in the kidnapping . [ scene_break ] nina : i do n't understand . i do n't -- i do n't understand how i 'm a suspect . i mean , you searched this place , and you found nothing . nathan : i know . that 's true . nina : yeah , it 's true . i do n't have any money , thanks to that legal fiasco that my mother created . nathan : nina , i am aware of that . nina : i do n't have any money ! whereas -- whereas michael quartermaine , he has a bunch of money . he could stash the baby anywhere . nathan : nina , nina , i 'm not here to attack you . all right ? i just need to talk with you about some new evidence that 's come to light . nina : okay . where did you acquire this new evidence ? [ nathan remembers dr. obrecht : the suspect is your sister nina . nathan : yeah . she 's , um -- she 's a person of interest . dr. obrecht : yeah . of course . her history of baby theft is well - documented . nathan : from my mother . [ scene_break ] franco : evidence ? what are you talking about ? i read that rag that julian publishes . there 's no mention of any evidence . dr. obrecht : [ chuckles ] the port charles press is not aware of the development . franco : well , then how do you know anything about it ? dr. obrecht : my dear franco , i 'm the one who provided it . franco : you what ? dr. obrecht : i turned over the hospital security footage to the police . detective nathan west , my son , reviewed it . you should know your little girlfriend was all over it . [ scene_break ] dante : morgan and kiki switched your allergy meds with these ? well , how did you figure that out ? sabrina : well , i was with michael at the metro court right before he had his episode . he did n't have time to get as drunk as he appeared , so i had his pills tested . dante : wait , they roofied you ? sabrina : well , technically , it 's alprazolam . but it 's -- it basically has the same effect . michael : [ clears throat ] i was taking the pills for my allergies . they were n't working , so i doubled my dose , and ... yeah . sabrina : two drinks on top of that -- that 's the equivalent of 10 or more . dante : son of a bitch . michael : yeah , my sentiments exactly . dante : michael , i 'm sorry . i ... [ pills rattle ] dante : i was wrong about this whole thing . i know you do n't drink to excess , and i know you do n't lose control , and most of all , i know you do n't endanger the life of our little sister . [ breathes deeply ] our dumbass brother , on the other hand , did put that little girl at risk to make you look bad . i 'm ashamed of him , and i 'm ashamed of me for believing it . michael : hey , that 's [ sighs ] apology accepted . dante : i 'm assuming you want to press charges . michael : yes . yes , i do . dante : did morgan and kiki confess ? michael : no , but they made incriminating statements . in front of a witness ? sabrina : yeah , i heard them . so did sonny . dante : any other evidence ? michael : morgan had my real pills on him . dante : okay . i can take these and these and open an investigation , but first , i have to find our little sister . michael : i think i can help you with that . morgan and kiki took her . [ scene_break ] kiki : oh , yeah , you made a stinky , but it 's all over now . [ sighs ] i do n't even care how you got back here . i 'm just so glad to see you . [ door opens ] morgan : hey , i , you know -- i checked the lobby door . i checked the service door , the garage door . there 's no -- no sign of forced entry or anything . kiki : [ sighs ] that does n't make any sense . morgan : i know . kiki : i mean , she seems fine . she 's not hungry . she does n't seem traumatized at all . morgan : i mean , whoever had her , they obviously did n't scare her . [ avery coos ] kiki : yeah , clearly . morgan : i just -- i - i do n't get how they got her back in the apartment without tipping anyone off . i do n't get how the kidnapper did that . [ avery screams ] kiki : i think we should call the police , morgan . morgan : maybe . but i think first we need to call my dad . [ scene_break ] carly : what the hell was morgan thinking ? sonny : okay , he was n't . he acts first , he thinks later . you know that . carly : he put so many lives in danger . sonny : well , yeah . carly : what if michael got behind the wheel of a car ? he could have killed someone . sonny , he could have killed that baby . sonny : i -- i know . carly : and then michael would have carried that around with him for the rest of his life , and it was n't even his fault . as it is , that horrible episode with the stroller was on heavy rotation on `` access port charles . `` i mean , the whole town thinks michael is some out of control drunk . what is wrong with morgan ? i mean , how could you do that to your brother ? sonny : where are you going , carly ? carly : where do you think i 'm going ? i 'm gon na go have a discussion with kiki and morgan . it 's about damn time someone has a long talk with them . lulu : oh , carly , i meant to text you . valerie and i are getting dinner . carly : i ca n't . i 'm sorry . i 'm so sorry . valerie : she looked upset . lulu : how do i explain this ? she always -- sonny . sonny : damn it . lulu : i wanted to introduce you to my cousin ... sonny : i ca n't talk right now . i got to go . lulu : ... valerie spencer . i [ sighs ] got to love port charles . [ chuckles ] valerie : so that was dante 's father ? lulu : correct . valerie : and he 's carly 's ex - husband . lulu : four times over . valerie : they 've been married four times ? lulu : sonny and carly really love each other , but they 're both stubborn . terrible tempers -- they fight like crazy . they have two sons , michael and morgan , who , i 'm pretty sure , felt like they grew up in a war zone . valerie : hmm . lucky dante . lulu : excuse me ? valerie : oh , he mentioned that he grew up with a single mother . so i assumed sonny was n't in the picture . lulu : right . olivia chose not to tell sonny about dante until he was an adult . valerie : you can still see the resemblance , though . lulu : between dante and sonny ? valerie : mm - hmm . same build and coloring . lulu : [ laughs ] valerie : sonny 's a little darker , i guess . and they have those big , brown eyes with the long lashes . and if dante 's anything to go by , i 'm sure his father has a great smile , too . lulu : well , sonny 's dimples are famous . valerie : hmm . but is sonny as charming as dante ? lulu : definitely . yeah . yeah , um , i mean , in different ways . sonny 's a friend of my family 's -- our family . in addition to being married to carly , he 's just someone who 's always been in my life . but if i 'm honest with you , he 's always been a little intimidating . valerie : [ scoffs ] something that dante definitely is n't . [ chuckles ] yeah , he 's so kind and unaffected . and he has such a cute sense of humor . lulu : [ chuckles ] valerie : i mean , he really made me feel at ease . [ scene_break ] franco : of course , nina 's on the security footage . she 's already admitted that she was here at the hospital . dr. obrecht : well , tell me . what was she doing here ? franco : she came to see silas . she wanted to apologize for the way that she treated him , and to offer her condolences on ava 's death . dr. obrecht : do n't you think that behavior is out of character for nina ? franco : i think she 's worked really hard to make herself a better person and part of that process is to ask for forgiveness from those she 's wronged . dr. obrecht : franco , you never before struck me as being naive . franco : that is what happened , liesl . dr. obrecht : as a friend , i must tell you . the security footage does not reflect nina 's version of events . franco : wait . you -- you 're telling me there 's a tape of nina stealing the baby ? [ scene_break ] nina : auntie liesl paid me a visit yesterday . she hardly got past `` hello `` before she started hurtling accusations at me . nathan : of what ? nina : i -- well -- the kidnapping , for one . and then , um , she implied that she knew a secret about my past that i did n't even know . nathan : like a family secret ? nina : i 'm not really sure . i mean , i just thought all my dirty laundry was out there publicly for everyone to see . nathan : look , nina , whatever my mother 's personal feelings about you might be , they 're irrelevant . nina : well , yeah , you took the words right out of my mouth . nathan : point is , she turned over hospital security footage . nina : [ sighs ] do you think she messed with it ? nathan : no , the techs confirm . the raw footage has n't been tampered with by my mother or anyone . nina : okay , so tell me , what is this footage of , anyway ? nathan : i can do better than tell you . all right ? i can show you . [ scene_break ] dante : why would morgan and kiki take aj ? kiki 's already got temporary custody . michael : was n't morgan the first one to accuse me of taking aj ? dante : yeah . michael : he already framed me as being an out of control drunk . why not frame me as a baby snatcher on top of it all ? completely annihilating any chance i had to reinstate myself as aj 's guardian . dante : you really think he 'd go that far ? sabrina : [ scoffs ] you really think that they would n't ? i mean , morgan and kiki literally drove michael to drink by staging a public make out session . they knew that aj was there . they knew that they were putting her life at risk . obviously , her safety and her -- her welfare means nothing to them . dante : well , sadly , it does n't surprise me about morgan doing that , but kiki -- i mean , what -- what is she thinking ? michael : they 're idiots . they 're completely irresponsible . they could have left aj with anyone , anywhere . and i - i have no idea where our littler sister is . [ scene_break ] morgan : my dad 's gon na freak out when he finds out she 's back and she 's -- [ knock on door ] morgan : hey . i was actually just gon na call you guys . carly : morgan stone corinthos , what the hell were you thinking drugging your brother ? morgan : whoa . can you please calm down ? carly : do n't you tell me to calm down . i want to know what was going through your head . sonny : avery . hey . carly : oh , my god . sonny : hey . my little angel . carly : hi . sonny : i did n't think i was gon na see you again , huh ? carly : aw , she 's safe . sonny : you here in my arms where you belong -- safe . can i get some of that ? carly : you guys kidnapped avery and framed michael ? morgan : oh , come on . no , we did not take avery . carly : you would do anything , morgan , anything to make your brother look bad , and you clearly do n't give a damn about this baby 's safety . kiki : oh , that is not true . carly : really ? you drugged michael , kiki , knowing he would be close to her , possibly holding her . did it every occur to you that he might drop her ? thank god she was safe in that stroller when he knocked it over , and if anything would have happened to her , it would be your fault . worst of all , you kidnapped her ? come on , you two ! kiki : no , we screwed up big - time . we know we were wrong . but we did not kidnap avery . morgan : mom . we just found her not even 20 minutes ago -- carly : i do n't want to hear any more of your lies or excuses . you are responsible for drugging michael , and you 're gon na answer for it . [ scene_break ] lulu : dante and i want you to feel comfortable with us . but i know you 're gon na feel a lot more comfortable once you 're out of wyndemere . valerie : i thought you had n't heard from your brother . lulu : mnh . i have n't yet , but he wo n't have a problem with you staying with him . [ cell phone ringing ] lulu : that might be him right now . no , it 's lucy coe . i think she 's called me nine million times about the nurses ' ball . valerie : [ chuckles ] oh , that 's that big charity event tomorrow night . i 'm dancing with my friend maxie and a couple other girls as the haunted starlets . lucy coe is the mistress of ceremonies , and she 's got this idea that she 's fixated on that our number wo n't look balanced with only five dancers and that somehow , we have to come up with a sixth one by tomorrow ni -- valerie : problem solved . i 'd love to . [ scene_break ] carly : do you remember morgan insisting you call cps on michael ? insisting that michael was a danger to his little sister ? sonny : yeah , i remember . it made me sick . carly : just one more lie , huh ? just -- just one more way to tear your brother down . and never mind that you 're the one who is endangering that little girl . you just wanted to humiliate michael . morgan : yeah . carly : he 's your -- he 's your brother , morgan . your brother . and what about you , kiki ? what about the supposed love you have for michael ? did you even have a twinge of conscience ? did you even think twice about handing your little sister over to a guy that you guys had drugged ? ! kiki : it was just so out of control , you know ? we -- we did n't plan it out like that . carly : really ? 'cause as far as i can see , everything worked out exactly how you guys planned . exactly . so , what else did you do ? morgan : [ groans ] carly : no , look at me . you drugged your brother . was the reporter there because of you ? did you call the reporter ? morgan : mom ! carly : i 'm gon na take that as a yes . morgan : okay . we did what we had to do . we did the right thing . carly : are you hearing yourself ? morgan : do you not remember what michael did ? ! carly : are you hearing yourself ? ! morgan : he switched the judge to beat dad ! carly : the right thing ? morgan : come on ! you would have done the same thing ! carly : let me tell you something , morgan . i have done many things , horrible things , to get what i want , okay ? but you crossed the line . michael is your brother . my god , you guys were family here ! you put michael 's life in danger and anyone who would have come in contact with him , so there is no way you can stand there and convince me that what you did was right . morgan : you know what ? maybe not . but you 're sitting here , and you 're acting like michael 's so squeaky clean . what if he 's the one that 's responsible for avery 's kidnapping ? ! huh ? ! [ scene_break ] michael : look , kiki 's still living with her father . is there any way you can get a , uh , warrant to search the apartment ? dante : do you have evidence to connect kiki and morgan to aj 's disappearance ? michael : no . okay ? but -- but you can interview them about drugging me . that should be able to get you in the door . then maybe you 'll see or hear something that will give you probable cause to search . dante : michael , i 'm not defending kiki and morgan , but i also do n't know if they 're kidnappers , either . we ca n't waste time searching for the wrong suspects . michael : think about it . think about it , dante . they have motive , they have means , and they have opportunity . and , you know , it 's not like you 've been able to turn up evidence against anybody else . [ scene_break ] nathan : okay , so ... there -- there you are talking to silas . nina : i 'm offering my condolences . nathan : i know that . nina : there 's that . nathan : there 's that . that 's your altercation with kiki . nina : yeah , well , she attacked me . she attacked me . she 's a very petulant little girl . nathan : i get that , and i did n't like having to separate two grown adults . nina : well , i was being the bigger person . nathan : okay . okay , now -- now here 's you and i speaking . nina : mm - hmm . okay . yes . i calmed down . i 'm very calm . we were talking . i - i still ... [ laughs ] this does n't show me stealing a baby . nathan : i understand that . that does n't , but this does . okay ? just watch . okay , so here 's silas leaving the exam room . and he goes over to talk to kiki . now , according to his statement , he 's gon na finish this conversation , and then he 's gon na drop off some blood work at the lab , and he 's gon na leave for new york , which leaves baby aj in the exam room with a ms. doreen zupan from cps . nina : okay , it is fascinating , but i do n't understand what it has to do with me . nathan : we 're getting there . now , while silas is talking to kiki , you and i were speaking . nina : yeah . and i gave you really great advice , remember ? and i kissed you on the cheek . then i left . nathan : yeah , but , nina -- but you did n't leave . all right ? look . see , so here you are outside of the elevator . and it 's obvious that you 're looking at kiki and morgan . nina : well , i ca n't help it that they -- they were in my eyeline , and i was still , um , really hurt and angry at kiki . i mean , i - i really tried to be nice to her , j . nathan : i know you did . but instead of leaving , nina , you 're seen outside of the exam room where baby aj was last seen , peering through the blinds . look . can you explain that ? [ scene_break ] [ franco remembers ] nina : you 're still trying to convince me that my baby belongs to ava jerome . franco : nina , she 's not yours . nina : [ sighs ] stop saying that . dr. obrecht : while the police have the original footage , i felt it was necessary we keep a copy of the surveillance footage for our records for our lawyers to review . as you can see , your precious nina was outside the very same exam room that baby was in , waiting to go home but never did . franco : nope . that is not real . somebody has tampered with that footage . they 're trying to make it look like nina did that , but she did n't do that . nathan : feel free to contact the police . they will tell you this footage is untouched . i take it then nina did n't mention her stop to see the baby . do n't bother answering . i can see the truth all over your face . [ scene_break ] nathan : look , nina , i really need you to tell me the truth , okay ? nina : okay , all right . this is the truth . i did n't take aj . i did n't take her . yes , she was in the hospital , and , yes , i was about to leave , but ... it hit me . i saw that footage of the stroller tipping over , and i was just worried about her , and i just -- i needed to know that she was okay . that 's all it was . that 's all it was . and i looked through , and i saw that lady from cps with aj . nathan : okay , and then what happened ? nina : yeah . and then i saw that lady interacting with aj , and i knew she was okay . nathan : and ? nina : and then i left . that 's it . and -- and you 're gon na see that . you -- click away . look , 'cause -- 'cause it 'll show that i left . nathan : i have already , and that 's the problem is that right after you left , the surveillance footage goes blank . nina : what does that mean ? nathan : that means that somebody turned off the hospital surveillance system . and the running theory is that whoever did that then went and kidnapped the baby . nina : and you 're saying it was me ? nathan : i am saying that it could have been . [ scene_break ] lulu : [ coughs ] you want to dance at the nurses ' ball ? valerie : i love to dance ! lulu : [ laughs ] valerie : i mean , i 've been taking classes since i was a kid . like , if my life were a little different , i think i 'd be dancing professionally . and i have a real passion for it . so , if your mistress of ceremonies wants six haunted starlets , i 'm your girl . lulu : i - i think you would be so disappointed . the rest of us are amateurs . seriously , we 're basically faking it . valerie : is there any choreography ? lulu : yeah . [ laughs ] i have a - a video on my phone . valerie : may i ? lulu : see , it 's kind of tricky . valerie : this would n't be a problem at all . a couple of run - throughs , and i 'd have this down . lulu : by tomorrow night ? valerie : i 'm a quick learner . it 's my survival mechanism . [ laughs ] i once worked with this choreographer . well , more like a teacher - choreographer , and he could not make up his mind . [ laughs ] he called it his `` free - flowing creativity , `` but it really was is we 'd show up in the morning , and he 'd have an entirely different number for us to perform that night . lulu : i -- [ sighs ] see , uh , uh ... here 's the thing . okay ? like i said , we are all amateurs , and we 've basically memorized all the moves with five dancers , and to add a sixth one would throw everything off . valerie : oh . you do n't want me . [ scene_break ] nina : are you gon na arrest me , j ? nathan : no , nina . i 'm not gon na arrest you . i just wanted to give you a heads- up . this footage does not look good for you . all right ? i think you need to speak with an attorney . nina : alexis davis is my attorney , but she 's representing michael quartermaine in the custody situation . nathan : okay , so it 's time to seek new representation . what about diane miller . i have a really good relationship with her . i can vouch for you . nina : i mean , do you really think it 's that bad ? do you think i need an attorney ? nathan : yeah . yeah . i think it would be in your best interest to speak to a lawyer right away . nina : wait . no , no , no . you 're my brother . now , forget the evidence . what do you think ? you know me . what do you think ? you think i took that baby . nathan : [ sighs ] nina , you told me you did n't take that baby , and i believe you . nina : thank you . you 're the only who does . [ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : i know you do n't think it right now , but what i 've done is for your own good . franco : how can you say that ? dr. obrecht : franco , you just received the greatest gift one could ask for -- freedom . if you continue to support nina , you will only be returned to pentonville . is nina worth that ? nina is unbalanced and impossible to save . do n't let her drag you down with her . franco : she did n't do this . she did n't . she would n't do this . she would never take that baby . not -- not again . dr. obrecht : if that 's the case , then prove it to yourself . franco : how can i do that ? dr. obrecht : you live with her , do n't you ? yeah . go through her things . franco : i do n't think that 's a good idea . dr. obrecht : while nina may have gotten rid of the evidence , babies are sometimes messy . even if she is hiding one , there 's bound to be a sign of it somewhere . [ cell phone beeps ] dr. obrecht : [ sighs ] please excuse me . that annoying lucy coe . just got a message about the nurses ' ball . franco : hey , dr. obrecht , can i ask you a question ? dr. obrecht : please , liesl . wh - what 's your question ? franco : you told nina that , uh , she had some dirty laundry . nina told me that she did n't know what you were talking about . i - i told her that you were just playing some kind of a mind game , but ... is that true ? is that what you were doing , or was there something to what you said ? dr. obrecht : guilty as charged . i tried to throw nina off her game in hopes of getting her to confess . alas , my niece is stronger than i thought . let that be a lesson to you . if nina did n't kidnap that baby , then who did ? [ door closes ] [ scene_break ] carly : you just admit it . correction -- you got caught red - handed drugging michael . morgan : okay . mm - hmm . carly : now you 're gon na turn it around and accuse him of kidnapping ? morgan : yes , because you know it 's possible ! he could have easily snuck into gh , swiped avery . he knew where she was because of the cps lady . and he may not have an alibi , mom , but he sure has a lot of `` q `` money that he could use to stash her . you know that , right ? sonny : michael would n't do that to his sister . morgan : oh . sonny : he was kidnapped as a child . he would n't put his sister through that kind of trauma . morgan : why ? why ? sonny : you know that , morgan . morgan : why are you defending him right now ? carly : because we know michael . morgan : oh , god . carly : i do n't know how your father feels about this right now , but i do n't know who you are . sonny : okay , carly , it 's not the time and place to be -- carly : yes , it is . morgan 's gon na act like an adult , i 'm gon na treat him like one . so , do n't you stand there . look at me ! do n't you stand there and tell me you did this for your father or for your sister or for kiki . you did this to hurt your brother , and you succeeded , and i hope you 're proud of yourself . morgan : mom , are you forgetting that michael is the one who manipulated the situation ? carly : what the hell do you think you 're doing ? ! you 're standing there spewing lies and casting doubt about your brother when you know damn well that you and kiki had avery this whole time . kiki : morgan , look at me , okay ? you and your mom can take this up later , but we need to call dante right now . morgan : no . kiki : if we want to find the real kidnapper , we have to get the police involved . morgan : no ! we are not going to call anyone . we ca n't tell anyone she 's back , or we 're gon na lose her all over again . [ scene_break ] dante : i need to go log this in as evidence at the station . i 'll stop by silas clay 's apartment . michael : that 's all i can ask . dante : if i can give you one piece of advice , michael , heaven forbid you are ever in the situation where the cops want to search your house again . you let them . you turning me away like that , it made you look like you were hiding something . michael : yeah , yeah . look , um , i lost my temper . dante : i do n't blame you . and again , i 'm sorry . michael : dante , uh , i know this ca n't be easy [ sighs ] caught between me and morgan while trying to find our little sister . dante : you know , what morgan did was wrong , and he 's gon na answer for it . and as for our little sister , i 'm gon na bring her home . you stay away from morgan and kiki , okay ? michael : yeah , no , that -- that wo n't be a problem . dante : if you happen to run into them , you call me immediately , all right ? michael : i will . thank you . [ door closes ] [ scene_break ] valerie : forget what i just said . of course , you would want the routine to go how you had it . lulu : no . no , not at all . having an experienced dancer would make the number so much better . valerie : lulu , really , it 's okay . lulu : it will be okay once you agree to dance . valerie : but you just said i would be throwing everyone off . it -- lulu : as soon as the words came out of my mouth , i knew that i was wrong . last year , at the haunted starlets , we did a number at the nurses ' ball , and my friend maxie joined at the last second . not a trained dancer -- she was totally fine . besides , lucy 's right . the dance would look better with six girls . come on . what do you say ? valerie : whatever you want . really . i 'm good either way . lulu : well , i am texting lucy right now that my cousin valerie , the trained dancer , is the sixth haunted starlet . we will hear back any second . valerie : lulu , i appreciate the effort you 're making , but i do n't think you 're comfortable around me . lulu : [ scoffs ] it 's a difficult situation . valerie : then maybe the solution is n't me moving to your brother 's . maybe i should just leave . lulu : you already agreed to stay in port charles . valerie : and it is n't really working out . lulu : no , you staying on dante 's and my couch is n't working out , but you staying at my brother 's literal mansion would work out just fine . besides , you ca n't leave now . dude , you 're a haunted starlet . valerie : you could text the mistress of ceremonies and tell her i changed my mind . [ cell phone chimes ] lulu : ooh . aw , yeah . too late . she expects you to perform . lucy coe is not someone who takes disappointment lightly or quietly , for that matter . [ cell phone thuds ] valerie : if you 're sure . lulu : we 're cousins . we should use this as a chance to get to know each other , and you 're gon na have so much fun at the nurses ' ball . not only will you be the best dancer in the group , but you will have a front - row seat to something spectacular . valerie : what ? lulu : who knows ? it 's different every year . it 's a nurses'-ball tradition . the gowns are fabulous . the show is amazing . every year , something huge , wild , and totally unexpected happens . valerie : ca n't wait . to the nurses ' ball . [ ice clinks ] lulu : to the nurses ' ball . [ scene_break ] michael : i need to call alexis . now that there 's proof that i was n't drunk or out of control with aj , she can petition the court to have me reinstated as guardian . sabrina : okay , maybe you should just hold off . michael : why ? sabrina : well , because we still do n't know where aj is . you know , why do n't we just wait to hear back from dante ? he may have something to tell us after he talks to morgan and kiki . michael : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] [ door beeps ] franco : nina ? you here ? how about here ? you here ? nina ? dr. obrecht : you live with her , do n't you ? franco : yeah . dr. obrecht : go through her things . franco : i do n't think that 's a good idea . dr. obrecht : while nina may have gotten rid of the evidence , babies are sometimes messy . even if she is hiding one , there 's bound to be a sign of her somewhere . [ door beeps ] nina : looking for something ? [ scene_break ] michael : sabrina , um , thank you , really , for looking out for me through all this . sabrina : well , i had to do something to earn that recommendation you promised . michael : and you 're the only one who believed me . you went above and beyond to prove that what happened to me was n't my fault . sabrina : well [ sighs ] you 've been really great to me , michael . i 'm glad that i could help you in return . michael : i 'm , uh -- i 'm really grateful [ chuckles ] to have you in my life . sabrina : [ chuckles ] i 'm really grateful for you , too , michael . [ scene_break ] morgan : hear me out . michael lost custody of avery because cps thought he was endangering her , but now that he knows what actually happened -- carly : that you drugged him . morgan : okay . when he finds out avery is back , he 's going to petition the court for custody . do you want to lose avery again ? carly : what 's the alternative ? you want us to go along with the kidnapping ? [ laughs ] sonny , this is absurd . we 've got to stop this before it gets worse . kiki : your mom has a point , morgan . what are we gon na do ? hide avery from michael ? morgan : you know what ? i do n't know just yet , but i know one thing for sure . we are not going to tell dante . [ dante knocks on the door ] [ next_on ] dante : this is n't a social call , morgan . it 's police business . open the damn door . michael : ( to ned ) what the hell were you thinking ? felix : ( to sabrina ) have you developed feelings for him ? nina : ( to franco ) obviously , you think i 'm a liar . lulu : ( to nikolas ) it 's my cousin valerie . i need you to put her up . olivia : ( in pain ) oh ! god , there 's something wrong .
suspicion surrounds kiki and morgan , now that it 's been proven that they drugged michael . baby avery has now suddenly appeared in silas ' living room and nobody has a clue who took her . carly and sonny go to talk to them and carly does not take their word for it that they did not kidnap avery just to hurt michael . michael has dante investigate . michael and sabrina are growing closer and may become more than friends when he realizes how supportive she 's been to him and he kisses her .
<s>[INST] dr. obrecht : and that one is done . now if only i could get a final rehearsal schedule for the nurses ' ball from that woman , the world would become a better place . franco : dr. obrecht . dr. obrecht : [ gasps ] the world just became better . franco , liebchen , i 'm so happy to see you . no need to stand on ceremony . you know you can call me liesl . franco : okay . hello , liesl . dr. obrecht : uh , we 're all so happy to see you , and you 've really been missed , and not just by the staff , but by the patients . franco : oh , i doubt that . dr. obrecht : nein . in fact , you have been in my thoughts ever since i learned you were granted your freedom . please tell me that you 're ready to return to work . franco : no , i 'm not here about a job . dr. obrecht : then what is the nature of your visit ? franco : i 'm here about nina . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] nina : hey . what a surprise . nathan : may i come in ? nina : of course . why are you limping ? what 's wrong ? nathan : i , uh , went over a fence chasing a perp . i think i landed wrong . nina : you should be resting . nathan : i ca n't , not with an open kidnapping on the books . nina : oh , right . yeah . how 's that going ? have they found baby aj ? nathan : no , unfortunately . at the moment , she 's still missing . [ scene_break ] carly : hey . did n't expect to see you here . sonny : i need to talk to you . carly : okay . what 's , um ... hey , what 's going on ? sonny : [ sighs ] carly : is it about the baby ? did they find her ? sonny : i was just at elq with michael and morgan . carly : okay , how was that ? enlightening . sonny : everything that 's happened to michael , morgan is responsible . carly : responsible how ? sonny : morgan and kiki drugged michael . [ scene_break ] michael : so , morgan and kiki drugged me to make me look unfit . and why not put the nail in my coffin and frame me for kidnapping my sister , too ? sabrina : okay , michael , slow down . look , i know that you have every right to be angry . you just -- michael : i - i am so far beyond angry , but i ca n't -- i ca n't think about that right now . all that matters is bringing my sister home . sabrina : okay , but it 's not your job to prove that morgan and kiki are kidnappers , okay ? you should just leave that to the police . michael : you 're right . i 'm calling the cops . [ scene_break ] [ door opens ] morgan : you know , if -- if michael decides to press charges , and let 's face it , he 's probably gon na do that , i 'm gon na take the rap . [ door closes ] kiki : no . morgan : yes . yes . it was my idea . you were uncomfortable from the beginning . kiki : but i still went through with it . morgan : i do n't -- i do n't care . i 'm not gon na sit here and argue with you . kiki : morgan , look . my god , morgan . [ chuckles ] avery 's home . [ scene_break ] michael : dante . uh , thanks for coming so quickly . dante : yeah , what 's up ? you said it was urgent . michael : yeah , it 's related to aj 's disappearance . dante : well , i 'm open to hearing any and all leads . we 've been working around the clock to find her . michael : well , you can start by arresting morgan and kiki . dante : what for ? michael : [ inhales deeply ] for drugging me with these . [ scene_break ] carly : you want to run that by me again ? morgan and kiki were drugging michael ? sonny : i hate it on every level , but it 's true . carly : how ? sonny : you know that michael takes that seasonal allergy pill , right ? carly : yeah , for ragweeds . sonny : right . well , kiki and morgan swapped out the allergy pills for pills that acted like a roofie . so when michael , you know , took the pills , and then he had a drink , it heightened the effect of the alcohol . carly : and left him impaired . sonny : so , whatever happened in the lobby was caused by the drug . carly : [ sighs ] how did you find this all out ? sonny : sabrina santiago tested one of the pills . now , i 'm telling you , i thought that michael was going right to the bottle , like aj , but you know what ? at least that 's not -- that 's not happening , okay ? carly : we should have trusted him . sonny : well ... carly : we raised him . we raised a strong man , and we should have trusted him . i 've got to see him . i have to make sure ... sonny : no , no , he 's fine . carly , i promise you he 's fine . he 's with sa -- sabrina . carly : thank god . sabrina -- thank god for her . thank god she cared enough to dig deeper , you know ? to figure out what morgan was doing . morgan . what he was doing to his own brother . wait till i get my hands on him . [ scene_break ] kiki : oh , avery , my sweet , sweet sister , you 're back . morgan : is she okay ? kiki : you 're really here . morgan : do you think she 's all right ? kiki : i think she 's fine . [ sniffles ] morgan : yeah , i know . kiki : i think you 're perfect . morgan : i ca n't believe she 's back . kiki : i missed you so much . gosh . do you have any idea how worried we were about you ? [ chuckles ] morgan : how did -- kiki : i 'm so glad to see you . morgan : how did she get in the apartment ? kiki : oh . morgan : and more importantly , where has she been ? [ avery screams playfully ] [ scene_break ] nina : i ca n't believe there are no , um , leads in the kidnapping . that 's really ... so tough . that sweet , little baby who 's out there with who knows who . nathan : yeah . well , and a missing - child case is always tough , but , you know , right now , we just want to bring her home safely . nina : right . so , i hear that , um , your lead suspect is michael quartermaine . that 's got to be ... tough . he lost custody to ex . nathan : yeah . yeah , we 're still trying to verify michael 's whereabouts at the time of the kidnapping . nina : what was he doing ? nathan : well , he says that he was going out for a drive , but we have n't been able to find anybody to corroborate that . nina : that 's a really weak alibi . nathan : well , and he 's a quartermaine . that means he has the resources to secret aj away and keep her there for a really long time . nina : mm . nathan : so , yeah , to answer your question , michael is a suspect . but he 's not the only person that we 're investigating . nina : [ sighs ] nathan : unfortunately , nina , you are the other suspect . [ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : nina ? oh , yes , your erstwhile roommate . franco : right . and more importantly , your niece . dr. obrecht : what about her ? franco : she told me that you paid her a surprise visit yesterday . dr. obrecht : i see that meine nichte has been tattling on me . franco : you said some pretty horrible things . dr. obrecht : i do n't know what you 're talking about . franco : you basically accused her of waltzing out of here with aj or avery or whatever that kids ' name is now . dr. obrecht : i do n't believe i used the terming `` waltzing . `` i might have suggested that nina procured a child that did n't belong to her . considering nina 's history , i do n't believe i 'm mistaken in the assumption . franco : nina told me that she did not kidnap that baby , and there is no evidence to suggest that she has . dr. obrecht : [ scoffs ] actually , there is some evidence that implicates nina in the kidnapping . [ scene_break ] nina : i do n't understand . i do n't -- i do n't understand how i 'm a suspect . i mean , you searched this place , and you found nothing . nathan : i know . that 's true . nina : yeah , it 's true . i do n't have any money , thanks to that legal fiasco that my mother created . nathan : nina , i am aware of that . nina : i do n't have any money ! whereas -- whereas michael quartermaine , he has a bunch of money . he could stash the baby anywhere . nathan : nina , nina , i 'm not here to attack you . all right ? i just need to talk with you about some new evidence that 's come to light . nina : okay . where did you acquire this new evidence ? [ nathan remembers dr. obrecht : the suspect is your sister nina . nathan : yeah . she 's , um -- she 's a person of interest . dr. obrecht : yeah . of course . her history of baby theft is well - documented . nathan : from my mother . [ scene_break ] franco : evidence ? what are you talking about ? i read that rag that julian publishes . there 's no mention of any evidence . dr. obrecht : [ chuckles ] the port charles press is not aware of the development . franco : well , then how do you know anything about it ? dr. obrecht : my dear franco , i 'm the one who provided it . franco : you what ? dr. obrecht : i turned over the hospital security footage to the police . detective nathan west , my son , reviewed it . you should know your little girlfriend was all over it . [ scene_break ] dante : morgan and kiki switched your allergy meds with these ? well , how did you figure that out ? sabrina : well , i was with michael at the metro court right before he had his episode . he did n't have time to get as drunk as he appeared , so i had his pills tested . dante : wait , they roofied you ? sabrina : well , technically , it 's alprazolam . but it 's -- it basically has the same effect . michael : [ clears throat ] i was taking the pills for my allergies . they were n't working , so i doubled my dose , and ... yeah . sabrina : two drinks on top of that -- that 's the equivalent of 10 or more . dante : son of a bitch . michael : yeah , my sentiments exactly . dante : michael , i 'm sorry . i ... [ pills rattle ] dante : i was wrong about this whole thing . i know you do n't drink to excess , and i know you do n't lose control , and most of all , i know you do n't endanger the life of our little sister . [ breathes deeply ] our dumbass brother , on the other hand , did put that little girl at risk to make you look bad . i 'm ashamed of him , and i 'm ashamed of me for believing it . michael : hey , that 's [ sighs ] apology accepted . dante : i 'm assuming you want to press charges . michael : yes . yes , i do . dante : did morgan and kiki confess ? michael : no , but they made incriminating statements . in front of a witness ? sabrina : yeah , i heard them . so did sonny . dante : any other evidence ? michael : morgan had my real pills on him . dante : okay . i can take these and these and open an investigation , but first , i have to find our little sister . michael : i think i can help you with that . morgan and kiki took her . [ scene_break ] kiki : oh , yeah , you made a stinky , but it 's all over now . [ sighs ] i do n't even care how you got back here . i 'm just so glad to see you . [ door opens ] morgan : hey , i , you know -- i checked the lobby door . i checked the service door , the garage door . there 's no -- no sign of forced entry or anything . kiki : [ sighs ] that does n't make any sense . morgan : i know . kiki : i mean , she seems fine . she 's not hungry . she does n't seem traumatized at all . morgan : i mean , whoever had her , they obviously did n't scare her . [ avery coos ] kiki : yeah , clearly . morgan : i just -- i - i do n't get how they got her back in the apartment without tipping anyone off . i do n't get how the kidnapper did that . [ avery screams ] kiki : i think we should call the police , morgan . morgan : maybe . but i think first we need to call my dad . [ scene_break ] carly : what the hell was morgan thinking ? sonny : okay , he was n't . he acts first , he thinks later . you know that . carly : he put so many lives in danger . sonny : well , yeah . carly : what if michael got behind the wheel of a car ? he could have killed someone . sonny , he could have killed that baby . sonny : i -- i know . carly : and then michael would have carried that around with him for the rest of his life , and it was n't even his fault . as it is , that horrible episode with the stroller was on heavy rotation on `` access port charles . `` i mean , the whole town thinks michael is some out of control drunk . what is wrong with morgan ? i mean , how could you do that to your brother ? sonny : where are you going , carly ? carly : where do you think i 'm going ? i 'm gon na go have a discussion with kiki and morgan . it 's about damn time someone has a long talk with them . lulu : oh , carly , i meant to text you . valerie and i are getting dinner . carly : i ca n't . i 'm sorry . i 'm so sorry . valerie : she looked upset . lulu : how do i explain this ? she always -- sonny . sonny : damn it . lulu : i wanted to introduce you to my cousin ... sonny : i ca n't talk right now . i got to go . lulu : ... valerie spencer . i [ sighs ] got to love port charles . [ chuckles ] valerie : so that was dante 's father ? lulu : correct . valerie : and he 's carly 's ex - husband . lulu : four times over . valerie : they 've been married four times ? lulu : sonny and carly really love each other , but they 're both stubborn . terrible tempers -- they fight like crazy . they have two sons , michael and morgan , who , i 'm pretty sure , felt like they grew up in a war zone . valerie : hmm . lucky dante . lulu : excuse me ? valerie : oh , he mentioned that he grew up with a single mother . so i assumed sonny was n't in the picture . lulu : right . olivia chose not to tell sonny about dante until he was an adult . valerie : you can still see the resemblance , though . lulu : between dante and sonny ? valerie : mm - hmm . same build and coloring . lulu : [ laughs ] valerie : sonny 's a little darker , i guess . and they have those big , brown eyes with the long lashes . and if dante 's anything to go by , i 'm sure his father has a great smile , too . lulu : well , sonny 's dimples are famous . valerie : hmm . but is sonny as charming as dante ? lulu : definitely . yeah . yeah , um , i mean , in different ways . sonny 's a friend of my family 's -- our family . in addition to being married to carly , he 's just someone who 's always been in my life . but if i 'm honest with you , he 's always been a little intimidating . valerie : [ scoffs ] something that dante definitely is n't . [ chuckles ] yeah , he 's so kind and unaffected . and he has such a cute sense of humor . lulu : [ chuckles ] valerie : i mean , he really made me feel at ease . [ scene_break ] franco : of course , nina 's on the security footage . she 's already admitted that she was here at the hospital . dr. obrecht : well , tell me . what was she doing here ? franco : she came to see silas . she wanted to apologize for the way that she treated him , and to offer her condolences on ava 's death . dr. obrecht : do n't you think that behavior is out of character for nina ? franco : i think she 's worked really hard to make herself a better person and part of that process is to ask for forgiveness from those she 's wronged . dr. obrecht : franco , you never before struck me as being naive . franco : that is what happened , liesl . dr. obrecht : as a friend , i must tell you . the security footage does not reflect nina 's version of events . franco : wait . you -- you 're telling me there 's a tape of nina stealing the baby ? [ scene_break ] nina : auntie liesl paid me a visit yesterday . she hardly got past `` hello `` before she started hurtling accusations at me . nathan : of what ? nina : i -- well -- the kidnapping , for one . and then , um , she implied that she knew a secret about my past that i did n't even know . nathan : like a family secret ? nina : i 'm not really sure . i mean , i just thought all my dirty laundry was out there publicly for everyone to see . nathan : look , nina , whatever my mother 's personal feelings about you might be , they 're irrelevant . nina : well , yeah , you took the words right out of my mouth . nathan : point is , she turned over hospital security footage . nina : [ sighs ] do you think she messed with it ? nathan : no , the techs confirm . the raw footage has n't been tampered with by my mother or anyone . nina : okay , so tell me , what is this footage of , anyway ? nathan : i can do better than tell you . all right ? i can show you . [ scene_break ] dante : why would morgan and kiki take aj ? kiki 's already got temporary custody . michael : was n't morgan the first one to accuse me of taking aj ? dante : yeah . michael : he already framed me as being an out of control drunk . why not frame me as a baby snatcher on top of it all ? completely annihilating any chance i had to reinstate myself as aj 's guardian . dante : you really think he 'd go that far ? sabrina : [ scoffs ] you really think that they would n't ? i mean , morgan and kiki literally drove michael to drink by staging a public make out session . they knew that aj was there . they knew that they were putting her life at risk . obviously , her safety and her -- her welfare means nothing to them . dante : well , sadly , it does n't surprise me about morgan doing that , but kiki -- i mean , what -- what is she thinking ? michael : they 're idiots . they 're completely irresponsible . they could have left aj with anyone , anywhere . and i - i have no idea where our littler sister is . [ scene_break ] morgan : my dad 's gon na freak out when he finds out she 's back and she 's -- [ knock on door ] morgan : hey . i was actually just gon na call you guys . carly : morgan stone corinthos , what the hell were you thinking drugging your brother ? morgan : whoa . can you please calm down ? carly : do n't you tell me to calm down . i want to know what was going through your head . sonny : avery . hey . carly : oh , my god . sonny : hey . my little angel . carly : hi . sonny : i did n't think i was gon na see you again , huh ? carly : aw , she 's safe . sonny : you here in my arms where you belong -- safe . can i get some of that ? carly : you guys kidnapped avery and framed michael ? morgan : oh , come on . no , we did not take avery . carly : you would do anything , morgan , anything to make your brother look bad , and you clearly do n't give a damn about this baby 's safety . kiki : oh , that is not true . carly : really ? you drugged michael , kiki , knowing he would be close to her , possibly holding her . did it every occur to you that he might drop her ? thank god she was safe in that stroller when he knocked it over , and if anything would have happened to her , it would be your fault . worst of all , you kidnapped her ? come on , you two ! kiki : no , we screwed up big - time . we know we were wrong . but we did not kidnap avery . morgan : mom . we just found her not even 20 minutes ago -- carly : i do n't want to hear any more of your lies or excuses . you are responsible for drugging michael , and you 're gon na answer for it .

[ cell phone ringing ] lulu : that might be him right now . no , it 's lucy coe . i think she 's called me nine million times about the nurses ' ball . valerie : [ chuckles ] oh , that 's that big charity event tomorrow night . i 'm dancing with my friend maxie and a couple other girls as the haunted starlets . lucy coe is the mistress of ceremonies , and she 's got this idea that she 's fixated on that our number wo n't look balanced with only five dancers and that somehow , we have to come up with a sixth one by tomorrow ni -- valerie : problem solved . i 'd love to . [ scene_break ] carly : do you remember morgan insisting you call cps on michael ? insisting that michael was a danger to his little sister ? sonny : yeah , i remember . it made me sick . carly : just one more lie , huh ? just -- just one more way to tear your brother down . and never mind that you 're the one who is endangering that little girl . you just wanted to humiliate michael . morgan : yeah . carly : he 's your -- he 's your brother , morgan . your brother . and what about you , kiki ? what about the supposed love you have for michael ? did you even have a twinge of conscience ? did you even think twice about handing your little sister over to a guy that you guys had drugged ? ! kiki : it was just so out of control , you know ? we -- we did n't plan it out like that . carly : really ? 'cause as far as i can see , everything worked out exactly how you guys planned . exactly . so , what else did you do ? morgan : [ groans ] carly : no , look at me . you drugged your brother . was the reporter there because of you ? did you call the reporter ? morgan : mom ! carly : i 'm gon na take that as a yes . morgan : okay . we did what we had to do . we did the right thing . carly : are you hearing yourself ? morgan : do you not remember what michael did ? ! carly : are you hearing yourself ? ! morgan : he switched the judge to beat dad ! carly : the right thing ? morgan : come on ! you would have done the same thing ! carly : let me tell you something , morgan . i have done many things , horrible things , to get what i want , okay ? but you crossed the line . michael is your brother . my god , you guys were family here ! you put michael 's life in danger and anyone who would have come in contact with him , so there is no way you can stand there and convince me that what you did was right . morgan : you know what ? maybe not . but you 're sitting here , and you 're acting like michael 's so squeaky clean . what if he 's the one that 's responsible for avery 's kidnapping ? ! huh ? ! [ scene_break ] michael : look , kiki 's still living with her father . is there any way you can get a , uh , warrant to search the apartment ? dante : do you have evidence to connect kiki and morgan to aj 's disappearance ? michael : no . okay ? but -- but you can interview them about drugging me . that should be able to get you in the door . then maybe you 'll see or hear something that will give you probable cause to search . dante : michael , i 'm not defending kiki and morgan , but i also do n't know if they 're kidnappers , either . we ca n't waste time searching for the wrong suspects . michael : think about it . think about it , dante . they have motive , they have means , and they have opportunity . and , you know , it 's not like you 've been able to turn up evidence against anybody else . [ scene_break ] nathan : okay , so ... there -- there you are talking to silas . nina : i 'm offering my condolences . nathan : i know that . nina : there 's that . nathan : there 's that . that 's your altercation with kiki . nina : yeah , well , she attacked me . she attacked me . she 's a very petulant little girl . nathan : i get that , and i did n't like having to separate two grown adults . nina : well , i was being the bigger person . nathan : okay . okay , now -- now here 's you and i speaking . nina : mm - hmm . okay . yes . i calmed down . i 'm very calm . we were talking . i - i still ... [ laughs ] this does n't show me stealing a baby . nathan : i understand that . that does n't , but this does . okay ? just watch . okay , so here 's silas leaving the exam room . and he goes over to talk to kiki . now , according to his statement , he 's gon na finish this conversation , and then he 's gon na drop off some blood work at the lab , and he 's gon na leave for new york , which leaves baby aj in the exam room with a ms. doreen zupan from cps . nina : okay , it is fascinating , but i do n't understand what it has to do with me . nathan : we 're getting there . now , while silas is talking to kiki , you and i were speaking . nina : yeah . and i gave you really great advice , remember ? and i kissed you on the cheek . then i left . nathan : yeah , but , nina -- but you did n't leave . all right ? look . see , so here you are outside of the elevator . and it 's obvious that you 're looking at kiki and morgan . nina : well , i ca n't help it that they -- they were in my eyeline , and i was still , um , really hurt and angry at kiki . i mean , i - i really tried to be nice to her , j . nathan : i know you did . but instead of leaving , nina , you 're seen outside of the exam room where baby aj was last seen , peering through the blinds . look . can you explain that ? [ scene_break ] [ franco remembers ] nina : you 're still trying to convince me that my baby belongs to ava jerome . franco : nina , she 's not yours . nina : [ sighs ] stop saying that . dr. obrecht : while the police have the original footage , i felt it was necessary we keep a copy of the surveillance footage for our records for our lawyers to review . as you can see , your precious nina was outside the very same exam room that baby was in , waiting to go home but never did . franco : nope . that is not real . somebody has tampered with that footage . they 're trying to make it look like nina did that , but she did n't do that . nathan : feel free to contact the police . they will tell you this footage is untouched . i take it then nina did n't mention her stop to see the baby . do n't bother answering . i can see the truth all over your face . [ scene_break ] nathan : look , nina , i really need you to tell me the truth , okay ? nina : okay , all right . this is the truth . i did n't take aj . i did n't take her . yes , she was in the hospital , and , yes , i was about to leave , but ... it hit me . i saw that footage of the stroller tipping over , and i was just worried about her , and i just -- i needed to know that she was okay . that 's all it was . that 's all it was . and i looked through , and i saw that lady from cps with aj . nathan : okay , and then what happened ? nina : yeah . and then i saw that lady interacting with aj , and i knew she was okay . nathan : and ? nina : and then i left . that 's it . and -- and you 're gon na see that . you -- click away . look , 'cause -- 'cause it 'll show that i left . nathan : i have already , and that 's the problem is that right after you left , the surveillance footage goes blank . nina : what does that mean ? nathan : that means that somebody turned off the hospital surveillance system . and the running theory is that whoever did that then went and kidnapped the baby . nina : and you 're saying it was me ? nathan : i am saying that it could have been . [ scene_break ] lulu : [ coughs ] you want to dance at the nurses ' ball ? valerie : i love to dance ! lulu : [ laughs ] valerie : i mean , i 've been taking classes since i was a kid . like , if my life were a little different , i think i 'd be dancing professionally . and i have a real passion for it . so , if your mistress of ceremonies wants six haunted starlets , i 'm your girl . lulu : i - i think you would be so disappointed . the rest of us are amateurs . seriously , we 're basically faking it . valerie : is there any choreography ? lulu : yeah . [ laughs ] i have a - a video on my phone . valerie : may i ? lulu : see , it 's kind of tricky . valerie : this would n't be a problem at all . a couple of run - throughs , and i 'd have this down . lulu : by tomorrow night ? valerie : i 'm a quick learner . it 's my survival mechanism . [ laughs ] i once worked with this choreographer . well , more like a teacher - choreographer , and he could not make up his mind .

[ scene_break ] nina : are you gon na arrest me , j ? nathan : no , nina . i 'm not gon na arrest you . i just wanted to give you a heads- up . this footage does not look good for you . all right ? i think you need to speak with an attorney . nina : alexis davis is my attorney , but she 's representing michael quartermaine in the custody situation . nathan : okay , so it 's time to seek new representation . what about diane miller . i have a really good relationship with her . i can vouch for you . nina : i mean , do you really think it 's that bad ? do you think i need an attorney ? nathan : yeah . yeah . i think it would be in your best interest to speak to a lawyer right away . nina : wait . no , no , no . you 're my brother . now , forget the evidence . what do you think ? you know me . what do you think ? you think i took that baby . nathan : [ sighs ] nina , you told me you did n't take that baby , and i believe you . nina : thank you . you 're the only who does . [ scene_break ] dr. obrecht : i know you do n't think it right now , but what i 've done is for your own good . franco : how can you say that ? dr. obrecht : franco , you just received the greatest gift one could ask for -- freedom . if you continue to support nina , you will only be returned to pentonville . is nina worth that ? nina is unbalanced and impossible to save . do n't let her drag you down with her . franco : she did n't do this . she did n't . she would n't do this . she would never take that baby . not -- not again . dr. obrecht : if that 's the case , then prove it to yourself . franco : how can i do that ? dr. obrecht : you live with her , do n't you ? yeah . go through her things . franco : i do n't think that 's a good idea . dr. obrecht : while nina may have gotten rid of the evidence , babies are sometimes messy . even if she is hiding one , there 's bound to be a sign of it somewhere . [ cell phone beeps ] dr. obrecht : [ sighs ] please excuse me . that annoying lucy coe . just got a message about the nurses ' ball . franco : hey , dr. obrecht , can i ask you a question ? dr. obrecht : please , liesl . wh - what 's your question ? franco : you told nina that , uh , she had some dirty laundry . nina told me that she did n't know what you were talking about . i - i told her that you were just playing some kind of a mind game , but ... is that true ? is that what you were doing , or was there something to what you said ? dr. obrecht : guilty as charged . i tried to throw nina off her game in hopes of getting her to confess . alas , my niece is stronger than i thought . let that be a lesson to you . if nina did n't kidnap that baby , then who did ? [ door closes ] [ scene_break ] carly : you just admit it . correction -- you got caught red - handed drugging michael . morgan : okay . mm - hmm . carly : now you 're gon na turn it around and accuse him of kidnapping ? morgan : yes , because you know it 's possible ! he could have easily snuck into gh , swiped avery . he knew where she was because of the cps lady . and he may not have an alibi , mom , but he sure has a lot of `` q `` money that he could use to stash her . you know that , right ? sonny : michael would n't do that to his sister . morgan : oh . sonny : he was kidnapped as a child . he would n't put his sister through that kind of trauma . morgan : why ? why ? sonny : you know that , morgan . morgan : why are you defending him right now ? carly : because we know michael . morgan : oh , god . carly : i do n't know how your father feels about this right now , but i do n't know who you are . sonny : okay , carly , it 's not the time and place to be -- carly : yes , it is . morgan 's gon na act like an adult , i 'm gon na treat him like one . so , do n't you stand there . look at me ! do n't you stand there and tell me you did this for your father or for your sister or for kiki . you did this to hurt your brother , and you succeeded , and i hope you 're proud of yourself . morgan : mom , are you forgetting that michael is the one who manipulated the situation ? carly : what the hell do you think you 're doing ? ! you 're standing there spewing lies and casting doubt about your brother when you know damn well that you and kiki had avery this whole time . kiki : morgan , look at me , okay ? you and your mom can take this up later , but we need to call dante right now . morgan : no . kiki : if we want to find the real kidnapper , we have to get the police involved . morgan : no ! we are not going to call anyone . we ca n't tell anyone she 's back , or we 're gon na lose her all over again .

[ scene_break ] ( flashback ) stephanie : do n't you know how much you mean to me ? after caroline 's death , i never thought ridge would be fortunate enough to find someone as wonderful as she was . taylor : no . there -- there 'll never be a woman quite like caroline . stephanie : you are . you have all of her attributes and all of her qualities , and i thank goodness every day that he has you . i 'm very proud that you 're part of my family . i care for you , taylor . i do n't want you to go away . i do n't want to lose you for any reason . taylor : you wo n't . i 'm not going anywhere , stephanie . ( present time ) brooke : what are you doing in here ? taylor : i 'm waiting for you . i have a question i want to ask you about stephanie . do you think what she did was fair ? brooke : why would n't it be ? taylor : because she had a contact -- a binding formal trust agreement . brooke : it was a dark moment . she was just trying to hurt me . taylor : she made a legal commitment to my son , and -- and then on her deathbed , she reneges ? who does that ? brooke : where are you going with this ? taylor : do you agree that -- that this behavior of hers was very abnormal ? brooke : oh , i see -- she was n't of sound mind . taylor : she was dying , brooke . brooke : and i suppose you 're not happy that she chose to spend that time with me . taylor : ( sighs ) i - i -- no , i do n't begrudge the time that you needed to say good - bye to her . brooke : thank you . taylor : but i do resent what she did to thomas . brooke : stephanie realized that she made a mistake giving her shares of the company to thomas . she made that evident on the video . she exercised whatever loophole she might have found in the articles of incorporation . now if you want to challenge that , go right ahead . but before you do , you should know that i just came from seeing eric . he is a changed man . stephanie has given him purpose in his life again . taylor : so you went to talk to eric . i suppose you took the opportunity to remind him that rick is his son and thomas is not . brooke : i do n't think this competition is about that . he loves his children and he loves his grandchildren very much . taylor : ( chuckles ) brooke : it 's about who is best equipped ... taylor : ( sighs ) brooke : to bring forrester creations into the future . i 'm sure he 'll be impartial . taylor : you know , it really does n't surprise me we are where we are right now . i mean , it 's only been a few years now we 've been battling over husbands and our daughters and who they should be with , and now it goes onto our sons thomas and rick .

you never accepted me being with devon . you wanted to demolish my marriage . you finally got your wish . devon : all right , you need to just back up for a second , please . lily : devon , we 're just saying -- cane : give him a minute . just give him a minute . devon : i barely had a chance to wrap my head around the fact my wife is leaving me , and you 're talking divorce strategy . cane : all right , listen , i know this is hard for you . i know you 're going through a lot , but you have to get in front of this while you still have the chance . do you understand that ? lily : the one thing that we are sure of is hilary will go after your financial jugular . devon : i 'm aware of what i have to do to protect my interests , and i 'm also aware it 's gon na be very difficult to fight hilary when she decides to go after half of my stuff . lily : i know . because of the blackmail . devon : her telling the cops that neil kidnapped her is kind of just icing on the cake . cane : please tell me you signed a prenup . devon : no , i did n't have her sign a prenup . lily : oh , my god . cane : [ sighs ] lily : i was afraid of that . devon : so she 's definitely gon na try and get as much as she can out of me . cane : the thought of hilary getting her hands on katherine 's money ... she never even met her , let alone has any respect for her legacy . lily : well , she definitely enjoys the benefits of being in the chancellor family . she had no problem throwing katherine 's name around at the dedication of the wing . cane : right , so she could land herself in the spotlight . i mean , she does not deserve a penny from katherine 's estate . devon : she sure as hell does n't , and i 'm not just going to roll over and give it up , you know ? i 'm going to fight her in court with everything that i have . lily : everything ? do you mean that ? devon : yeah . lily : well , i think there 's another way to stop that conniving witch from getting what she wants out of the settlement . devon : and what 's that ? lily : change hilary 's mind about the divorce . jack : honey , we agreed we were gon na stay here one night . phyllis : and we were gon na go back together today . yeah , i know . jack : yeah , adam 's trial is starting , and -- phyllis : and you should be there to support him . you should . but i do n't want to be anywhere near that trial . victor 's gon na be there testifying , and i do n't want to see him . jack : afraid you 're gon na lose it ? phyllis : i do n't want to listen to him and see him gloat , trying to nail adam to the wall , and i -- yeah , i think it 'll set me off . jack : i was under the impression you were getting past this . phyllis : i am . i think i 've truly moved past the need of getting back at victor . jack : but you do n't want to face him . phyllis : i 'd rather not test it . i do n't think i will ever forgive victor for what he did to me , to us . and i think it is best for my state of mind and for the safety of those around me to create as much space between me and that man as possible , so i hope you understand . jack : well , now that you 've explained it , i understand why you do n't want to be in court . phyllis : thank you . jack : what i do n't understand is why you want to stay up here in the cabin without me . billy : you do n't have to worry about me . i 'm not on the verge of some downward spiral . ashley : you 're drinking too much . billy : all right , could i practice a little more self - restraint ? yes , sure . but i 've never lost sight of the fact that i have kids to raise and a company to run . ashley : i hope that 's true . billy : it is true . last night i was unwinding , okay ? so you do n't have to micromanage me . plus you have bigger things on your mind , like -- like jabot . ashley : it 's really nice to be back in the company . billy : see ? that 's good . let 's talk about that . ashley : it 's good . i mean , you know , mostly . i do n't think phyllis is exactly 100 % thrilled , but ... billy : why do you say that ? ashley : oh , just little things , nothing we ca n't work out . billy : like ? ashley : i sensed that maybe she was a little hesitant to leave me in charge when she went off with jack to the cabin for his birthday . billy : right , well , i mean , she had to go , right ? she had to celebrate . thank you . ashley : are you kidding ? romantic getaway as a birthday gift ? it 's perfect . i 'm sure jack is enjoying every second of it . billy : i 'm sure he is . dr. neville : forgive the intrusion , william . i 'm afraid i need to have a confab with your sister . billy : please . please , your timing could n't be better . i am going to go to , uh , the gym . ashley : oh , great . sweat it out . billy : right . bye . ashley : see you . billy : bye . ashley : mwah . take care of yourself . billy : love you . ashley : what 's going on ? dr. neville : maybe we should find a less public place to have this conversation . ashley : why ? is it about the drug trial ? dr. neville : for god 's sake , have the decency to speak in code . what about the fda investigation ? ashley : what are you talking about ? there 's no police here . there 's no fda officials . i think we 're okay . dr. neville : ever heard of a parabolic microphone ? even as we speak in an unmarked van meters away . ashley : neville , i really appreciate the fact that you feel the need to protect me , but i do n't think it 's necessary . neville ? dr. neville : hmm ? ashley : is there something new ? dr. neville : yeah , of course there 's something new . it 's news . there 's been a break - in -- down -- through . there 's been a breakthrough . i figured out why hilary and the other two patients relapsed . ashley : that 's very promising ! dr. neville : no , it 's better than that . i found a cure . ashley : oh , my god . thank god ! dr. neville : no , no , no , no , no , no , no . do n't go thanking me or god just dr. neville : now , i 've already worked out the new formula for , uh , for treatment . i 've got the -- the medication lined up . ashley : well , then why are n't you at the hospital running the tests ? dr. neville : because i ca n't test the new protocol on the old drug trial patients . there 's too much red tape . ashley : right , because of the investigation . i ca n't believe hilary put us in this situation . dr. neville : hence to our next port of call . speaking of hilary ... ashley : why ? what has she done now ? dr. neville : nothing . but i have no idea when we 're gon na get the official go- ahead to restart the drug trial , ergo the only person i can test the drug on -- ashley : is hilary . dr. neville : ah . ashley : she 's still your patient . she 's not in the drug trial . dr. neville : exactly . ashley : so she must be so grateful that you 've actually refined this cure . dr. neville : kind of a trick question . she does n't know . ashley : why not ? dr. neville : because i do n't know how to approach her . that 's why i need you . [ sighs ] i mean , come on . the first time around , the woman was in a coma . she did n't have a choice . do you honestly think she 's going to agree to be a guinea pig all over again without a guarantee of success ? ashley : you go to the hospital . you make all of the arrangements . i 'm gon na talk to hilary . dr. neville : so you think you can get her to agree to it ? ashley : she damn well knows that she could go back in a coma or die if she does n't get your treatment , and sometimes in a situation like this , the risk is just worth taking . devon : so you , of all people , are suggesting that i stay in my marriage ? lily : this is a desperate situation . hilary could go after your inheritance . that can not happen . cane : it is a logical suggestion . lily : see ? cane agrees . cane : okay , it 's logical but not workable because he is condemned to a lifetime of emotional hell . lily : i 'm not saying it 's gon na be easy . devon : easy ? i do n't even know if it 's doable . lily : okay , do either of you have a better solution ? cane : [ sighs ] lily : i 'm not saying stay in the marriage forever . just until we can figure out a way to outmaneuver her and declaw her , and then you can just cut her loose . devon : i mean , that makes sense . it could work . lily : so you 'll do it ? devon : well , i - i 'm not really sure if i can pull it off , even if i could get over how upset i am that she wants to be with jack . lily : okay , lucky for us , jack still loves his wife . i know for a fact that he blew hilary off yesterday to go spend time with phyllis . so i 'm sure hilary is worried concerning her plans with jack , which makes her vulnerable to you . cane : because she wants to be part of a powerful family , any powerful family , than be on her own . lily : exactly . so all you have to do is just apologize to her , tell her how much you love her , that you ca n't live without her , and that you love her too much to let her go . cane : and that you understand why she did what she did . devon : and that we want to start fresh and new and be the big power couple she 's always wanted , right ? i think actually that could work . cane : yeah , it could work , but you have to keep your guard up . lily : do not get sucked back in . if hilary starts changing her ways and acts like she 's all madly in love with you again , do n't think that things will be how they were before . devon : there 's not a chance of that happening . neil : hilary , i am well beyond any resentment that i 've had for you and devon . hilary : why ca n't you just admit that you never got over my affair with devon ? neil : hilary -- hilary : i 'm not blaming you . what we did to you was awful , especially considering your disability at the time . neil : yeah . yeah . what you did to me was awful . in fact , it was shameful and lowdown . hilary : yeah . and you admitted that you wanted revenge , so ... neil : and that was then . hilary : you were so angry for so long . you expect me to believe that all of those feelings , they just evaporated ? neil : my anger left me the minute that you woke up . do you realize how grateful , how relieved , how thankful i was ? when i said to you that all i wanted was for you and devon to live a long and happy life , i meant every word i said . hilary : yeah , that 's because you felt guilty for what you did to me . neil : you 're damn right . i did feel guilty . but more importantly , i realized how -- how you and devon were meant to be together . i did n't want to stand in the way of my son 's happiness , and i know how much he loved you . he loved you with all his heart and soul . and for a while there , i thought that you loved him like that , too . hilary : i did . but we grew apart . people change . neil : no . you changed . you broke the kid 's heart . you betrayed him . hilary : yeah , because i am just -- i am such an awful person , right ? i am sorry that it did n't work out with devon . i truly am . but looking back now , i was naive to think that we could live happily ever after . neil : but you loved each other so much . hilary : being with you and then devon , all of this emotional baggage , the complications of this -- this twisted family triangle ... how could any relationship survive that ? phyllis : jack ? there are other reasons why i want to stay at the cabin . jack : perhaps you should explain those to me . how is it we came up here to celebrate my birthday and i 'm going home alone ? phyllis : i think having physical distance from the circus of the trial , from victor , will help me from getting worked up about it . jack : yeah , so you said . phyllis : being up here makes me feel peaceful , like i 'm unplugging from everyone and everything . and there is one other embarrassing reason . jack : yeah ? what is that ? phyllis : a drive back trying to recover from this hangover just makes me nauseous , and i thought i was made out of tougher stuff than that . jack : so when do you think you 'll be coming back ? later today ? tomorrow ? phyllis : i 'm not sure . jack : okay . you stay as long as you like . enjoy . read . relax . i -- whatever . when you need to come back , call me . i 'll come pick you up , and , uh , thanks for a great birthday . i got to go . phyllis : okay . you 're making it worse by thanking me . i know your celebration did n't go as you hoped . jack : i told you it was all okay . phyllis : and i do n't believe you . jack : we had some time together . that 's all i really cared about . hilary : think jack will be happy with what we decided . neil : then nothing else matters . hilary : you can go now . neil : [ laughs ] gladly . ashley : hilary , are you all right ? hilary : you do n't care about my wellbeing , ashley , so just take your phony concern somewhere else . ashley : the only reason i 'm asking is because i 've actually got something to say -- hilary : i am not in the mood to go another round with you , okay ? ashley : well , then take your things and go . go on . pick up your tablet and leave . [ sighs ] look , i 'm not here for another argument . i 've actually got good news . hilary : that would be a first . ashley : neville has adjusted the drug , hilary . it looks like he 's found the cure . hilary : a cure ? ashley : yes , but it has n't been tested yet . that 's why you 've got to get to the hospital right away . hilary : well , if neville has n't tested it , then how does he even know it will work on me ? he does n't . [ scoffs ] he wants me to be his guinea pig -- again . thanks , but no thanks . ashley : just wait a second . your symptoms are definitely getting worse , and you could be dying . hilary : or neville could kill me with his new test drug . ashley : or he could save you again . hilary : that 's easy for you to say . neville 's not pumping some mystery potion into your body . ashley : he has done that , and it saved me . look , i can tell that you 're getting worse . you do n't know if you have days or weeks or even hours before your situation becomes dire . neville 's treatment is your only chance . hilary : only chance . all right . ashley : that means you 'll go to the hospital ? hilary : do i have any other choice ? just tell neville i 'll be there soon . just i need a few minutes . ashley : okay . [ cell phone rings ] phyllis : [ sighs ] [ sighs ] hilary : hey , jack , um , i know you 're probably busy with phyllis , but , uh ... i thought you 'd want to know that i am going to the hospital and i , uh ... just call me when you can . jack : billy ! hey ! billy : hey . happy belated birthday . jack : thank you . billy : did n't expect to see you back so soon . jack : well , i wanted to get a bite to eat before adam 's trial begins a little later . billy : adam 's trial . that time of year already , huh ? jack : yeah , it does kind of feel like that sometimes . you know what , though ? this time i do n't think he 's done anything wrong . i think he 's being set up . billy : is that right ? could n't happen to a nicer guy . where 's phyllis ? jack : she decided to stay up at the cabin for a while . any chance you want to join me at the courthouse ? billy : no , no . uh , no . not a chance . victor 's gon na be there , and me and my blood pressure do n't need that . jack : that is just what my wife said . billy : well , phyllis and i have been lined against victor for a long time . we 've worked really hard to get rid of the vendetta . jack : so you have . still another thing you two have in common . billy : right . hey , listen , thanks for the invite , but i 'm not going anywhere near that courthouse . i got somewhere to be . i 'll see you . devon : hey . hilary . do you have a minute ? 'cause i really need to talk to you . hilary : not now , devon , okay ? there 's someplace that i really need to be . and besides , there 's nothing else to say to you . devon : hilary . hilary : whatever it is , you can talk to my lawyer . lily : and if devon plays this right , we 're hoping it 'll block hilary from getting half of what he 's worth . cane : it 's the best plan we got so far . neil : wait a minute . that 's your best ? i sure do n't like your chances . i just had a meeting with hilary , and she seems totally determined to move on . and there ... she goes . hilary : jack , hey . um , i left you a message . jack : [ sighs ] i left my cell phone at the cabin . w - what is it ? hilary : um , well , i am gon na check myself into the hospital . it turns out that dr. neville has found a cure . jack : well , that 's great news . hilary : yeah . jack : is devon gon na meet you there ? hilary : no , i 'm -- i 'm on my own . jack : no , that 's unacceptable . i 'll go with you . hilary : you sure ? jack : no , you ca n't go through something like this alone . come on . we 'll go . devon : [ sighs ] lily : hey . devon : i ran into hilary upstairs and she barely let me get three words out . lily : well , she had plenty to say to jack . she just left with him . devon : oh , thanks . lily : are you gon na follow them ? devon : yeah . lily : god , can you believe that witch ? she just blew off devon and then strolls out of here with jack . cane : at least devon went after her . neil : yeah , but what 's he gon na do when he catches her ? lily : okay , let 's just stay optimistic , please . neil : i do n't see any upside in this . either devon ends up in a shell of a marriage . cane : and keeps his money . neil : or he loses his marriage and half of katherine 's fortune . cane : i feel for devon , all right ? but katherine would roll over in her grave if she thought that hilary was gon na get half her money . lily : i just had a horrible thought . cane : what ? lily : what if she does n't stop at katherine 's money ? neil : what do you mean ? lily : well , she always wants bigger and better and more . i mean , divorce or no divorce , jack or no jack , i 'm sure she 'll set her sights higher than the foundation or the medical project . cane : you think she 'd make a power play for chancellor ? lily : she lives for money and power . cane : no , jill would n't let it happen . lily : okay , when hilary wants something , no one can stop her . and i 'm sure we can all see her wanting this . cane : okay , then i would n't let it happen , 'cause i would step in and team up with jill to make sure i can protect the company from her and do it at all costs . neil : okay . do n't you -- do n't you two think you 're getting way ahead of yourselves ? do n't you think you should wait until you see what happens with devon and hilary ? dr. neville : you 're still experiencing fatigue . how about the headaches ? hilary : practically every day . dr. neville : and the tremors ? hilary : they 're getting worse . dr. neville : hopefully we can get you back to your healthy self soon . jack : hold on to that . hilary : i 'll try . devon : what are you doing here in the hospital ? hilary : you followed me ? devon : why is she here ? jack : this is something devon and hilary have to discuss privately . hilary : jack , you -- you do n't have to go . jack : i 'll be right outside , okay ? dr. neville : watch your blood pressure . do n't get agitated . i 'll be back to start your iv . hilary : you followed me ? devon : yeah , i followed you . i wanted to talk to you . and when i heard that you left with jack , i really wanted to talk to you . hilary : our marriage is over , devon . devon : you know what ? i thought so , too , until i came downstairs to the lobby to find you , 'cause i figured you 'd be discussing the foundation with jack , and i ran into a nurse from here . her name is erica . do you remember her ? hilary : no , i do n't . and , devon -- devon : well , she remembers you , and she remembers us , and she told me , `` mr. hamilton , your wife is already in her room , so there 's no need to worry . `` why are you here in the hospital being treated by neville ? i thought you said that you were fine . hilary : i was fine , and then i was n't . turns out that my miracle cure was only temporarily miraculous . devon : and what 's the prognosis ? hilary : neville -- he 's -- he 's found a solution , okay ? so everything -- devon : hilary . hilary : i could die . or my prayers could be answered and neville could get it right this time . jack : this was not the way for devon to find out about this . dr. neville : no , it was n't . then again , hilary does n't seem to have much regard for her husband 's feelings these days . jack : what ? you 're really going to criticize her ? now ? dr. neville : no , i 'm simply stating a reality , jack . she 's a very complicated woman . if i 'm gon na save her life , i best get to it . ah . ashley : hey . hilary ? dr. neville : she 's all checked in and ready to go , thanks to you . jack : i did n't realize -- i thought you were done with all of this . ashley : i 'm officially keeping my distance from the drug trial . i just wanted to check on hilary . jack : i was n't aware you knew about her situation . ashley : i did n't know you were aware of it , either . jack : oh , i 've known for some time , since she passed out at the club . ashley : what are you doing here ? jack : i 'm here to support her . ashley : bad move . this is the last place you should be , jack . [ knock on door ] phyllis : jack ? is that you ? billy : it 's not jack . phyllis : how did you know i was here ? billy : i saw jack at the club . he told me that you were here alone , and i - i could n't stop thinking about what you and my brother might have been doing last night , so ... phyllis : did he tell you ? billy : no , he told me that you did n't come home with him . and i was hoping -- i was ... hoping that things did n't go as planned last night . phyllis : this is none of your business . billy : is n't it ? phyllis : i do n't want to do this . billy : there 's no `` this . `` there 's no -- there 's no yelling . there 's no blame . i just -- you just need to finish the sentence for me , okay ? `` last night , i ... `` phyllis : last night , i got drunk and ruined my husband 's birthday . billy : what do you mean , you got drunk ? what about jack ? phyllis : he stayed sober . want me to elaborate ? i will . i will . there was champagne . i overpoured . i got sloppy . end of story . billy : well , my brother does n't drink , and -- and you -- you do n't get sloppy for no reason . phyllis : i was n't thinking , okay ? i was n't thinking . now , i chose to be up here alone for a reason . please just respect the alone part . billy : you knew exactly what you were doing , phyllis . you did n't want to have sex with phyllis : it was n't calculated . it just happened . or did n't happen , i guess . billy : the whole point of a trip like this is to make sex happen , phyllis , so ... phyllis : i am done talking about this . now , please , have a safe drive back . billy : i need to know . phyllis : i could n't do it . i could n't . i felt like having sex with jack would be cheating on you , and that makes no sense . and i 'm feeling really confused right now . [ voice breaking ] i feel like i 'm going crazy . billy : me , too . phyllis : which one ? crazy or confused ? billy : both . a little . and a part of jealousy . i was so upset last night thinking about you being here . did n't get any better . i ended up drinking , almost getting in a fight . phyllis , i ca n't stop thinking about you , okay ? i ca n't -- i ca n't get you out of my head . and now that i know that you ca n't get me out of your head , either ... ashley : you should be with your wife and not here holding hilary 's hand . jack : not that i owe you an explanation , my wife is up at the cabin still while i 'm down here for adam 's trial . now , what is your explanation ? ashley : for what ? jack : well , you obviously have known about her situation for some time now , yet all you 've done is tell me to avoid her . ashley : that 's right , because she was using this health scare as a way of drawing you in and gaining your sympathy . jack : how about giving me just a little bit of credit ? yes , she has come to depend on me because she 's been dealing with an agonizing situation . ashley : agonizing because she 's been blackmailing people , jack , and paying off lab techs , by the way . jack : because she 's scared she might die . and yes , i have been a friend to her and nothing more than that . and you might follow my lead and show a little compassion yourself . ashley : excuse me ? in spite of everything hilary has done , i am very sympathetic to her situation , jack , because i have n't forgotten what it 's like to wonder when your body 's gon na give out and you 're done and you 're gone ! jack : and yet all you have done is distrust her . ashley : how the hell am i supposed to trust her ? ! have you forgotten she 's behind that payoff scheme that i took the blame for so neville could be free , so he could help her , not to mention the other people that he 's supposed to be saving ? ! jack : i am well aware of what hilary has done . ashley : it seems that neville has come up with the cure , so maybe i 'm asking you to take a step back . do n't let hilary lean on you . she should be leaning on her husband ! jack : no , there we agree . devon 's with her right now . now that he knows about it , maybe they can get some perspective and maybe work through this . devon : hilary , i wish you did n't lie to me . whatever you and i are going through right now , this is much bigger than that . hilary : i do n't need your pity , devon . devon : but you told jack . hilary : this is about you and me . i did n't want my relapse to be the reason why we stayed together , okay ? it 's over . devon : it does n't have to be . hilary : stop it , devon . devon : what do you want me to stop ? you want me to just stop being your husband ? it 's gon na take awhile to do that . i 'm gon na have to forget a lot of things . i 'm gon na have to forget everything , everything we shared , every moment we had , every kiss , every touch . hilary : do n't . devon : i 'm going to have to forget the vows that we said to each other . 'cause when we made those promises , i intended to keep them , and i know you did , too . hilary : [ gasps ] stop staring . devon : i do n't mean to stare . i 'm just trying to remember the last time i even held your hand . i do n't know how i did n't notice . i mean , we share a bed . i 'm sorry for that . you really did n't have to go through this alone . hilary : you should go . devon : hilary . finding you here sick , like i found you before when you were missing , that tore me up , thinking that i had lost you forever . but the joy that i felt knowing that i had you back is -- hilary : damn it . [ sighs ] i do n't need you , devon . devon : i do n't care , 'cause i 'm gon na be here , and you 're going to live through this . hilary : you do n't know that . devon : yes , i do know it . because i refuse to believe otherwise . and i am not gon na lose you to divorce or to this . hilary : devon . devon : hilary , we can have another chance if you 'll let us . cane : okay , call me back when you get the numbers , all right ? lily : hey , did i miss anything ? has devon come back ? neil : we have neither seen nor heard from him . lily : okay . i 'm gon na take that as a good sign . maybe he got hilary to listen to him or maybe he 's with her right now making progress . devon : you stopped trembling . hilary : do n't . devon : hilary . hilary : not now , devon , okay ? i am just -- i 'm dealing with too much . devon : okay , all right . then we do n't have to talk . i can just stay here with you . hilary : no . [ door opens ] no , you need to get out . just -- god , just leave me alone ! dr. neville : devon , i 'm afraid you have to leave . devon : but she 's -- dr. neville : i 'm sorry . the patient ca n't be upset . she 's about to start treatment . i 'm sorry . [ door opens ] ashley : we heard hilary yelling . devon : you should have told me she was sick . jack : look , i promised her -- devon : i do n't care what she asked you . i am her husband . dr. neville : you all right ? hilary : i just need to know how confident you are in this new cocktail of yours . dr. neville : i 'm as confident as i can be at this point . hilary : it 's not good enough . this has to work , okay ? this is my life . [ sobbing ] this is my life . [ gasps ] [ exhales deeply ] [ next_on ] mariah : do n't you realize how far this has gone ? ! you have to do something now ! paul : you want to see if he 's telling the truth . nikki : or if he 's willing to lie to destroy his son . ian : we both want the same thing -- justice .

[ blender stops ] ashley : you look like hell . ooh , make that hell squared . billy : i had a long night . ashley : obviously not slaving over brash & sassy into the wee hours . billy : actually , i spent the whole day yesterday procuring funds for expansion into the european market , so last night i celebrated . ashley : you 're taking out loans to expand ? do you really think that 's a wise move ? billy : ash , i can feel a lecture coming on , and as much as i would love that , can you just get your coffee to go ? or not . have a seat . ashley : i 'm not gon na come down on you , billy . billy : praise the angels . ashley : but i am worried about you , honey . you 're drinking too much . you were in a motorcycle accident ! and all these women that you 're `` dating `` ? i mean , come on . billy : oh , come on . if i stop drinking , if i promise to not drive my motorcycle to do whatever -- ashley : billy , you 're obviously not happy . billy : what about if i smile really big ? will you go away , please ? ashley : why are you doing this to yourself ? you 've got to curb this self- destructive behavior . why do you always have to punish yourself ? phyllis : oh ! the couch is my friend . it feels so good not to stand . jack : how much do you remember of yesterday ? phyllis : well , i was sitting on this couch wishing you happy birthday , and then ... jack : and 3/4 of a bottle of champagne ? ringing any bells ? you passed out . phyllis : yeah , i must have . i woke up here in the middle of the night , and i stumbled back to bed and promptly passed out again . did i wake you ? jack : it 's okay . it was nice having you next to me . here . drink . it 's a hangover cure . phyllis : hmm . it 's actually kind of tasty . jack : glad to be of service . come on . drink that down . you 'll feel a whole lot better . and then we got to get back to town . phyllis : i ca n't , jack . i 'm sorry . i ca n't go with you . hilary : right on time . neil : yeah , well , i had to see it to believe it . last i checked , you were packed and headed out of town . hilary : yes , well , i 'm sorry to disappoint , neil , but i 've invested way too much in this town to leave it all behind . neil : yeah , hilary , if i can -- hilary : now to business . there are some foundation issues that need to be resolved while jack is unavailable . neil : you 're funny . why did you choose to have the discussion here ? hilary : i 'm not running from your daughter , neil . neil : since lily made it clear that you -- hilary : i have work to do , issues that need to be resolved here and now . but if you ca n't bring yourself to work with me , then you are more than welcome to leave this meeting , as well as your foundation . lily : so , have you spoken to hilary ? devon : she sent me a text message saying that she 's decided to stay in town and she 's gon na get her own suite here at the club . cane : do you have any plans to talk it out ? devon : i do n't know how , 'cause she wants me to respect her privacy and she keeps ignoring my calls and texts . [ sighs ] what ? lily : i hate to be the one to tell you this , but hilary is planning to file for divorce . devon : wow . that 's very fast . cane : i 'm sorry . devon : i ca n't say it does n't hurt that she 's moving so quick , but i 'm really not surprised after the way we left things , so ... lily : no , i do n't think you should be surprised , either , when she takes you for all you 're worth . devon : lily . lily : this is n't hilary bashing . she said that she 's gon na sue you . devon : she said she 's gon na do what ? cane : she wants to own the club . devon : so she 's not just trying to hurt me . she 's trying to hurt you . cane : and next she 'll go after your inheritance from katherine , and you can not let that happen . lily : listen , hilary has to neil : as much as i hate having to deal with you -- you are a blackmailer , remember that ? -- let 's be clear on something . i would never , ever walk away from a foundation with my name on it . i believe there 's too much good work being done there . hilary : well , jack believes in me . he believes in my contribution , so i wo n't be going anywhere anytime soon . so you need to check your personal feelings at the door and focus on the work . neil : oh , yeah ? just like that ? hilary : you do n't see me letting my impending divorce interfere with my work . neil : divorce ? hilary : why do you seem so shocked , neil ? neil : well , i -- since you stayed in town , i - i guess i just assumed that you -- what about devon ? how 's he taking this ? hilary : i do n't know . i have n't told him . i 'm sure that lily is taking care of that , though . neil : lily ? you let devon find out through his sister lily ? hilary : i am just shocked that you are so alarmed and so concerned , especially since this is exactly what you wanted . neil : no , no , it 's not . not even close . hilary : you sabotaged my honeymoon to break us up . neil : hilary , that was then . you -- hilary : why ca n't you just be honest ? you never accepted me being with devon . you wanted to demolish my marriage . you finally got your wish . devon : all right , you need to just back up for a second , please . lily : devon , we 're just saying -- cane : give him a minute . just give him a minute . devon : i barely had a chance to wrap my head around the fact my wife is leaving me , and you 're talking divorce strategy . cane : all right , listen , i know this is hard for you . i know you 're going through a lot , but you have to get in front of this while you still have the chance . do you understand that ? lily : the one thing that we are sure of is hilary will go after your financial jugular . devon : i 'm aware of what i have to do to protect my interests , and i 'm also aware it 's gon na be very difficult to fight hilary when she decides to go after half of my stuff . lily : i know . because of the blackmail . devon : her telling the cops that neil kidnapped her is kind of just icing on the cake . cane : please tell me you signed a prenup . devon : no , i did n't have her sign a prenup . lily : oh , my god . cane : [ sighs ] lily : i was afraid of that . devon : so she 's definitely gon na try and get as much as she can out of me . cane : the thought of hilary getting her hands on katherine 's money ... she never even met her , let alone has any respect for her legacy . lily : well , she definitely enjoys the benefits of being in the chancellor family . she had no problem throwing katherine 's name around at the dedication of the wing . cane : right , so she could land herself in the spotlight . i mean , she does not deserve a penny from katherine 's estate . devon : she sure as hell does n't , and i 'm not just going to roll over and give it up , you know ? i 'm going to fight her in court with everything that i have . lily : everything ? do you mean that ? devon : yeah . lily : well , i think there 's another way to stop that conniving witch from getting what she wants out of the settlement . devon : and what 's that ? lily : change hilary 's mind about the divorce . jack : honey , we agreed we were gon na stay here one night . phyllis : and we were gon na go back together today . yeah , i know . jack : yeah , adam 's trial is starting , and -- phyllis : and you should be there to support him . you should . but i do n't want to be anywhere near that trial . victor 's gon na be there testifying , and i do n't want to see him . jack : afraid you 're gon na lose it ? phyllis : i do n't want to listen to him and see him gloat , trying to nail adam to the wall , and i -- yeah , i think it 'll set me off . jack : i was under the impression you were getting past this . phyllis : i am . i think i 've truly moved past the need of getting back at victor . jack : but you do n't want to face him . phyllis : i 'd rather not test it . i do n't think i will ever forgive victor for what he did to me , to us . and i think it is best for my state of mind and for the safety of those around me to create as much space between me and that man as possible , so i hope you understand . jack : well , now that you 've explained it , i understand why you do n't want to be in court . phyllis : thank you . jack : what i do n't understand is why you want to stay up here in the cabin without me . billy : you do n't have to worry about me . i 'm not on the verge of some downward spiral . ashley : you 're drinking too much . billy : all right , could i practice a little more self - restraint ? yes , sure . but i 've never lost sight of the fact that i have kids to raise and a company to run . ashley : i hope that 's true . billy : it is true . last night i was unwinding , okay ? so you do n't have to micromanage me . plus you have bigger things on your mind , like -- like jabot . ashley : it 's really nice to be back in the company . billy : see ? that 's good . let 's talk about that . ashley : it 's good . i mean , you know , mostly . i do n't think phyllis is exactly 100 % thrilled , but ... billy : why do you say that ? ashley : oh , just little things , nothing we ca n't work out . billy : like ? ashley : i sensed that maybe she was a little hesitant to leave me in charge when she went off with jack to the cabin for his birthday . billy : right , well , i mean , she had to go , right ? she had to celebrate . thank you . ashley : are you kidding ? romantic getaway as a birthday gift ? it 's perfect . i 'm sure jack is enjoying every second of it . billy : i 'm sure he is . dr. neville : forgive the intrusion , william . i 'm afraid i need to have a confab with your sister . billy : please . please , your timing could n't be better . i am going to go to , uh , the gym . ashley : oh , great . sweat it out . billy : right . bye . ashley : see you . billy : bye . ashley : mwah . take care of yourself . billy : love you . ashley : what 's going on ? dr. neville : maybe we should find a less public place to have this conversation . ashley : why ? is it about the drug trial ? dr. neville : for god 's sake , have the decency to speak in code . what about the fda investigation ? ashley : what are you talking about ? there 's no police here . there 's no fda officials . i think we 're okay . dr. neville : ever heard of a parabolic microphone ? even as we speak in an unmarked van meters away . ashley : neville , i really appreciate the fact that you feel the need to protect me , but i do n't think it 's necessary . neville ? dr. neville : hmm ? ashley : is there something new ? dr. neville : yeah , of course there 's something new . it 's news . there 's been a break - in -- down -- through . there 's been a breakthrough . i figured out why hilary and the other two patients relapsed . ashley : that 's very promising ! dr. neville : no , it 's better than that . i found a cure . ashley : oh , my god . thank god ! dr. neville : no , no , no , no , no , no , no . do n't go thanking me or god just dr. neville : now , i 've already worked out the new formula for , uh , for treatment . i 've got the -- the medication lined up . ashley : well , then why are n't you at the hospital running the tests ? dr. neville : because i ca n't test the new protocol on the old drug trial patients . there 's too much red tape . ashley : right , because of the investigation . i ca n't believe hilary put us in this situation . dr. neville : hence to our next port of call . speaking of hilary ... ashley : why ? what has she done now ? dr. neville : nothing . but i have no idea when we 're gon na get the official go- ahead to restart the drug trial , ergo the only person i can test the drug on -- ashley : is hilary . dr. neville : ah . ashley : she 's still your patient . she 's not in the drug trial . dr. neville : exactly . ashley : so she must be so grateful that you 've actually refined this cure . dr. neville : kind of a trick question . she does n't know . ashley : why not ? dr. neville : because i do n't know how to approach her . that 's why i need you . [ sighs ] i mean , come on . the first time around , the woman was in a coma . she did n't have a choice . do you honestly think she 's going to agree to be a guinea pig all over again without a guarantee of success ? ashley : you go to the hospital . you make all of the arrangements . i 'm gon na talk to hilary . dr. neville : so you think you can get her to agree to it ? ashley : she damn well knows that she could go back in a coma or die if she does n't get your treatment , and sometimes in a situation like this , the risk is just worth taking . devon : so you , of all people , are suggesting that i stay in my marriage ? lily : this is a desperate situation . hilary could go after your inheritance . that can not happen . cane : it is a logical suggestion . lily : see ? cane agrees . cane : okay , it 's logical but not workable because he is condemned to a lifetime of emotional hell . lily : i 'm not saying it 's gon na be easy . devon : easy ? i do n't even know if it 's doable . lily : okay , do either of you have a better solution ? cane : [ sighs ] lily : i 'm not saying stay in the marriage forever . just until we can figure out a way to outmaneuver her and declaw her , and then you can just cut her loose . devon : i mean , that makes sense . it could work . lily : so you 'll do it ? devon : well , i - i 'm not really sure if i can pull it off , even if i could get over how upset i am that she wants to be with jack . lily : okay , lucky for us , jack still loves his wife . i know for a fact that he blew hilary off yesterday to go spend time with phyllis . so i 'm sure hilary is worried concerning her plans with jack , which makes her vulnerable to you . cane : because she wants to be part of a powerful family , any powerful family , than be on her own . lily : exactly . so all you have to do is just apologize to her , tell her how much you love her , that you ca n't live without her , and that you love her too much to let her go . cane : and that you understand why she did what she did . devon : and that we want to start fresh and new and be the big power couple she 's always wanted , right ? i think actually that could work . cane : yeah , it could work , but you have to keep your guard up . lily : do not get sucked back in . if hilary starts changing her ways and acts like she 's all madly in love with you again , do n't think that things will be how they were before . devon : there 's not a chance of that happening . neil : hilary , i am well beyond any resentment that i 've had for you and devon . hilary : why ca n't you just admit that you never got over my affair with devon ? neil : hilary -- hilary : i 'm not blaming you . what we did to you was awful , especially considering your disability at the time . neil : yeah . yeah . what you did to me was awful . in fact , it was shameful and lowdown . hilary : yeah . and you admitted that you wanted revenge , so ... neil : and that was then . hilary : you were so angry for so long . you expect me to believe that all of those feelings , they just evaporated ? neil : my anger left me the minute that you woke up . do you realize how grateful , how relieved , how thankful i was ? when i said to you that all i wanted was for you and devon to live a long and happy life , i meant every word i said . hilary : yeah , that 's because you felt guilty for what you did to me . neil : you 're damn right . i did feel guilty . but more importantly , i realized how -- how you and devon were meant to be together . i did n't want to stand in the way of my son 's happiness , and i know how much he loved you . he loved you with all his heart and soul . and for a while there , i thought that you loved him like that , too . hilary : i did . but we grew apart . people change . neil : no . you changed . you broke the kid 's heart . you betrayed him . hilary : yeah , because i am just -- i am such an awful person , right ? i am sorry that it did n't work out with devon . i truly am . but looking back now , i was naive to think that we could live happily ever after . neil : but you loved each other so much . hilary : being with you and then devon , all of this emotional baggage , the complications of this -- this twisted family triangle ... how could any relationship survive that ? phyllis : jack ? there are other reasons why i want to stay at the cabin . jack : perhaps you should explain those to me . how is it we came up here to celebrate my birthday and i 'm going home alone ? phyllis : i think having physical distance from the circus of the trial , from victor , will help me from getting worked up about it . jack : yeah , so you said . phyllis : being up here makes me feel peaceful , like i 'm unplugging from everyone and everything . and there is one other embarrassing reason . jack : yeah ? what is that ? phyllis : a drive back trying to recover from this hangover just makes me nauseous , and i thought i was made out of tougher stuff than that . jack : so when do you think you 'll be coming back ? later today ? tomorrow ? phyllis : i 'm not sure . jack : okay . you stay as long as you like . enjoy . read . relax . i -- whatever . when you need to come back , call me . i 'll come pick you up , and , uh , thanks for a great birthday . i got to go . phyllis : okay . you 're making it worse by thanking me . i know your celebration did n't go as you hoped . jack : i told you it was all okay . phyllis : and i do n't believe you . jack : we had some time together . that 's all i really cared about . hilary : think jack will be happy with what we decided . neil : then nothing else matters . hilary : you can go now . neil : [ laughs ] gladly . ashley : hilary , are you all right ? hilary : you do n't care about my wellbeing , ashley , so just take your phony concern somewhere else . ashley : the only reason i 'm asking is because i 've actually got something to say -- hilary : i am not in the mood to go another round with you , okay ? ashley : well , then take your things and go . go on . pick up your tablet and leave . [ sighs ] look , i 'm not here for another argument . i 've actually got good news . hilary : that would be a first . ashley : neville has adjusted the drug , hilary . it looks like he 's found the cure . hilary : a cure ? ashley : yes , but it has n't been tested yet . that 's why you 've got to get to the hospital right away . hilary : well , if neville has n't tested it , then how does he even know it will work on me ? he does n't . [ scoffs ] he wants me to be his guinea pig -- again . thanks , but no thanks . ashley : just wait a second . your symptoms are definitely getting worse , and you could be dying . hilary : or neville could kill me with his new test drug . ashley : or he could save you again . hilary : that 's easy for you to say . neville 's not pumping some mystery potion into your body . ashley : he has done that , and it saved me . look , i can tell that you 're getting worse . you do n't know if you have days or weeks or even hours before your situation becomes dire . neville 's treatment is your only chance . hilary : only chance . all right . ashley : that means you 'll go to the hospital ? hilary : do i have any other choice ? just tell neville i 'll be there soon . just i need a few minutes . ashley : okay . [ cell phone rings ] phyllis : [ sighs ] [ sighs ] hilary : hey , jack , um , i know you 're probably busy with phyllis , but , uh ... i thought you 'd want to know that i am going to the hospital and i , uh ... just call me when you can . jack : billy ! hey ! billy : hey . happy belated birthday . jack : thank you . billy : did n't expect to see you back so soon . jack : well , i wanted to get a bite to eat before adam 's trial begins a little later . billy : adam 's trial . that time of year already , huh ? jack : yeah , it does kind of feel like that sometimes . you know what , though ? this time i do n't think he 's done anything wrong . i think he 's being set up . billy : is that right ? could n't happen to a nicer guy . where 's phyllis ? jack : she decided to stay up at the cabin for a while . any chance you want to join me at the courthouse ? billy : no , no . uh , no . not a chance . victor 's gon na be there , and me and my blood pressure do n't need that . jack : that is just what my wife said . billy : well , phyllis and i have been lined against victor for a long time . we 've worked really hard to get rid of the vendetta . jack : so you have . still another thing you two have in common . billy : right . hey , listen , thanks for the invite , but i 'm not going anywhere near that courthouse . i got somewhere to be . i 'll see you . devon : hey . hilary . do you have a minute ? 'cause i really need to talk to you . hilary : not now , devon , okay ? there 's someplace that i really need to be . and besides , there 's nothing else to say to you . devon : hilary . hilary : whatever it is , you can talk to my lawyer . lily : and if devon plays this right , we 're hoping it 'll block hilary from getting half of what he 's worth . cane : it 's the best plan we got so far . neil : wait a minute . that 's your best ? i sure do n't like your chances . i just had a meeting with hilary , and she seems totally determined to move on . and there ... she goes . hilary : jack , hey . um , i left you a message . jack : [ sighs ] i left my cell phone at the cabin . w - what is it ? hilary : um , well , i am gon na check myself into the hospital . it turns out that dr. neville has found a cure . jack : well , that 's great news . hilary : yeah . jack : is devon gon na meet you there ? hilary : no , i 'm -- i 'm on my own . jack : no , that 's unacceptable . i 'll go with you . hilary : you sure ? jack : no , you ca n't go through something like this alone . come on . we 'll go . devon : [ sighs ] lily : hey . devon : i ran into hilary upstairs and she barely let me get three words out . lily : well , she had plenty to say to jack . she just left with him . devon : oh , thanks . lily : are you gon na follow them ? devon : yeah . lily : god , can you believe that witch ? she just blew off devon and then strolls out of here with jack . cane : at least devon went after her . neil : yeah , but what 's he gon na do when he catches her ? lily : okay , let 's just stay optimistic , please . neil : i do n't see any upside in this . either devon ends up in a shell of a marriage . cane : and keeps his money . neil : or he loses his marriage and half of katherine 's fortune . cane : i feel for devon , all right ? but katherine would roll over in her grave if she thought that hilary was gon na get half her money . lily : i just had a horrible thought . cane : what ? lily : what if she does n't stop at katherine 's money ? neil : what do you mean ? lily : well , she always wants bigger and better and more . i mean , divorce or no divorce , jack or no jack , i 'm sure she 'll set her sights higher than the foundation or the medical project . cane : you think she 'd make a power play for chancellor ? lily : she lives for money and power . cane : no , jill would n't let it happen . lily : okay , when hilary wants something , no one can stop her . and i 'm sure we can all see her wanting this . cane : okay , then i would n't let it happen , 'cause i would step in and team up with jill to make sure i can protect the company from her and do it at all costs . neil : okay . do n't you -- do n't you two think you 're getting way ahead of yourselves ? do n't you think you should wait until you see what happens with devon and hilary ? dr. neville : you 're still experiencing fatigue . how about the headaches ? hilary : practically every day . dr. neville : and the tremors ? hilary : they 're getting worse . dr. neville : hopefully we can get you back to your healthy self soon . jack : hold on to that . hilary : i 'll try . devon : what are you doing here in the hospital ? hilary : you followed me ? devon : why is she here ? jack : this is something devon and hilary have to discuss privately . hilary : jack , you -- you do n't have to go . jack : i 'll be right outside , okay ? dr. neville : watch your blood pressure . do n't get agitated . i 'll be back to start your iv . hilary : you followed me ? devon : yeah , i followed you . i wanted to talk to you . and when i heard that you left with jack , i really wanted to talk to you . hilary : our marriage is over , devon . devon : you know what ? i thought so , too , until i came downstairs to the lobby to find you , 'cause i figured you 'd be discussing the foundation with jack , and i ran into a nurse from here . her name is erica . do you remember her ? hilary : no , i do n't . and , devon -- devon : well , she remembers you , and she remembers us , and she told me , `` mr. hamilton , your wife is already in her room , so there 's no need to worry . `` why are you here in the hospital being treated by neville ? i thought you said that you were fine . hilary : i was fine , and then i was n't . turns out that my miracle cure was only temporarily miraculous . devon : and what 's the prognosis ? hilary : neville -- he 's -- he 's found a solution , okay ? so everything -- devon : hilary . hilary : i could die . or my prayers could be answered and neville could get it right this time . jack : this was not the way for devon to find out about this . dr. neville : no , it was n't . then again , hilary does n't seem to have much regard for her husband 's feelings these days . jack : what ? you 're really going to criticize her ? now ? dr. neville : no , i 'm simply stating a reality , jack . she 's a very complicated woman . if i 'm gon na save her life , i best get to it . ah . ashley : hey . hilary ? dr. neville : she 's all checked in and ready to go , thanks to you . jack : i did n't realize -- i thought you were done with all of this . ashley : i 'm officially keeping my distance from the drug trial . i just wanted to check on hilary . jack : i was n't aware you knew about her situation . ashley : i did n't know you were aware of it , either . jack : oh , i 've known for some time , since she passed out at the club . ashley : what are you doing here ?

[ scene_break ] logan : i talked to lulu for a total of five minutes , all right ? she was fine until you showed up . luke : and what 's your angle on my daughter ? maxie : hey , logan . hi , luke . luke : well , hello there . oh . maybe this answers some questions . [ scene_break ] spinelli : uh -- my research was intended to , you know , awe and inspire , not create emotional distress for the blond one . jason : what 'd you find ? lulu : a bunch of classified pcpd files that link scott baldwin to the murder of rick webber , and my brother could log on any time he 's at work and see those files . jason : well , he has n't seen them yet . why would he see them all of a sudden ? lulu : well , maybe i worry too much , but the truth about my mom being innocent and my dad having missed that could tear my family apart . so , spinelli , i want you to go in there and delete those files so that i do n't have to worry about this ever again . you got it ? spinelli : uh -- yeah , yeah , consider it done -- files deleted without a trace . lulu : okay , good . [ lulu groans ] spinelli : you know , stone cold , you were right . lulu 's words of rejection were meant for my research , um , not my heart , so i am truly in your debt . jason : why do n't you tell me why lulu was lying ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : honey ? which store did you get this paint from , and please tell me you kept the receipt . lucky : i thought you liked pink . elizabeth : yeah , but this is really pink . lucky : it 's a baby 's room . elizabeth : but i was thinking something more like pale , creamy yellow -- lucky : well , you know , the mural 's going to cover up most of the wall anyway . elizabeth : okay , but how about something a little less gender - specific ? lucky : you think it 's a boy , do n't you ? is this fact or feeling ? elizabeth : i 'm just saying that we have a 50/50 chance , and if we pick one , then it 's bound to be the other . lucky : so you do n't have a preference ? elizabeth : i just want a healthy baby . lucky : me , too . we 're going to have a baby , we 're going to have cameron and a great home . it 's the only thing that really matters . [ scene_break ] jax : well , you know , there are other ways to get marble for the hotel besides dating sonny . carly : yeah -- because you can get it for me , right ? jax : i -- i could phone some of the distributors in italy , you know . i mean , we could have slabs of it shipped in from the same quarry that michelangelo used if you want the really good - quality stuff . or i could have my architect call around and see if there 's any distributors outside of new york state , which i 'm sure there are . carly : that 's a lot of time and money for something you do n't even want . jax : huh . no , what i -- what i want is for you to admit that there are other options , but that you do n't want to take them because you 'd rather have dinner with sonny . carly : do i look like i 'm happy about this ? jax : i do n't know . i just -- but at least admit e flattered by his attention . carly : i feel bad for sonny because i know that on our date , there is nothing he can do to change my plans . but if sitting across a dinner table with him gives me the marble i want for a decent price without having to run to you for help , yeah , i 'm satisfied . jax : okay , fine . carly : fine . jax : have dinner with sonny , and then tomorrow you have dinner with me . ( [ scene_break ] nurse : hello . robin : hi . nurse : dr. scorpio , are you sure it 's okay that i called you ? robin : mrs. bernstein should n't start her drug therapy without my input . nurse : good to have you back . robin : oh , thank you . ah . patrick : what are you doing ? robin : is n't it obvious ? i 'm trying to look super cool with my cane . you know , it 's not as easy as i make it look . patrick : robin , you just got out of your wheelchair . robin : yes , and i caned to the car , and i caned my way from the parking lot . me and my cane , we 're inseparable here . patrick : so the fact that your surgeon said to take a few more days -- robin : but he 's a doctor -- what does he know ? look , i 'm not going to run laps , okay ? i just have to do a consult with mrs. bernstein in 1026 , and if i can handle that , i will start working half days . patrick : okay , that sounds reasonable , but i know you -- you wo n't stick to it . so just promise me you will go home right after . robin : you are so adorable and so charming and so nice , which i 'm sure comes as a shock to many of us . patrick : okay . robin : so i do n't know how i got to be the lucky one to have the hottest doctor so in love with me . but , really , have n't you learned not to tell me what to do ? [ scene_break ] luke : miss jones , apparently you have some serious problems , which are your business and not mine -- unless you start recruiting spuds like this to harass my daughter . maxie : i have n't -- luke : i hope that you do n't . i hope that you do n't . nice talking to you , too . logan : there goes father of the year . maxie : what just happened ? [ scene_break ] spinelli : i 'm -- i 'm so late , i -- jason : what 's -- what 's the hurry ? spinelli : uh -- dentist appointment -- just minor surgery . jason : now you 're lying to me . you 're going to tell me what 's going on here ? spinelli : look , i 'm just , um -- i 'm full of remorse , you know ? i -- i created a world of pain for the blond one , and , you know , you and i , we live in a dangerous underworld and we set our own rules , and i should 've never -- i should never have dug up all the murder stuff in the first place , and , you know , what made me think that we could mess with the blond one 's -- you know , the brave but sensitive and not altogether logical head ? you know , as the jackal , you know , i need to learn that sometimes when my brilliance unearths hidden truths , i should keep them buried . lesson learned . jason : i 'm not going to force you to tell me what it is , okay ? just -- you need to promise me that you 're going to let me know if it puts lulu in any danger at all . spinelli : i promise , i promise . uh -- you know , lulu 's right . uh -- it 'd probably be better across the board if all the forbidden files just disappear . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i need to see that pattern . lucky : oh -- oh , no , you do n't . elizabeth : oh -- lucky : oh , you 're a brilliant artist -- you can do it from memory . elizabeth : i 'm pregnant -- brain cells are on misfire . lucky : you know what ? here 's one -- a pretty pony farm . elizabeth : are you kidding ? that is so girlie . lucky : okay , how about this victorian dollhouse ? elizabeth : okay , that 's it , you 're in trouble . and do n't think because i 'm pregnant i ca n't take you down . lucky : oh , no , no -- elizabeth : give it to me . lucky : no , no -- elizabeth : give to me ! you 're such a brat ! lucky : you ca n't have it , ca n't have it . [ elizabeth laughs ] lulu : hi . lucky : okay , do n't look so shocked . you might as well get used to it , because i 'm going to be kissing my baby girl 's mother every chance i get . elizabeth : will you stop it ? if this is a boy , you 're going to scar him for life . lulu : just one big happy family , right ? elizabeth : lulu , are you okay ? lulu : do you even care ? lucky : lulu , what 's wrong ? emily : hi . we 're here . lucky and elizabeth : hey ! nikolas : hello . emily : cupcakes and paint shirts . elizabeth : oh , cupcakes -- baking ? emily : no , i actually got these at -- lucky : what 's wrong with you ? [ lulu sighs ] lulu : nothing . do n't worry about it . nikolas : all right , look -- i 'm sorry . i 'm hoping that you -- that you can help lucky here . a `` pink `` nursery ? it 's a -- it 's a mistake , it 's a bad idea . lucky : okay , this is not fair . you 're ganging up on me . what did elizabeth bribe you with ? emily : common sense . pink is just so -- pink . yeah . lucky : pink . right . well , first off , it 's a baby 's room , not a nursery . oh , i 'm sorry -- you did n't recognize it because there was no nanny . elizabeth : oh . nikolas : oh -- no , no , no , no . lucky : oh , see ? nikolas : no casting aspersions on those of us who grew up with help . unless -- unless you can confirm that the two of you are actually having a girl ? lucky : that we 're going to be naming laura . nikolas : you need to paint the room a neutral color . elizabeth : okay , lucky 's convinced we 're having a girl . [ scene_break ] lulu : yes , this is lulu spencer . i need to see her right now . [ scene_break ] robin : i do n't need your permission to work because i can cane my way around your sexy , stubborn self . patrick : oh , i 'm stubborn ? who refuses to accept that i can make rice without a rice cooker ? robin : what ? you ca n't . who -- who refuses to accept that , you know , your sports car will not die if you put low - octane gas in it ? patrick : it will . robin : no , it wo n't . and i 'm sorry , but i will never accept that i am more stubborn that you are . patrick : okay , i got an idea . why do n't you save some of this energy for your physical therapy ? robin : i know what you 're up to . patrick : hmm ? robin : you just want me to get better so we can have sex . patrick : okay , you got me . russell : dr. scorpio ? why are you here ? robin : because i -- i felt better , i decided to come in for a few -- russell : you are risking your own recovery , to say nothing of a danger you 're posing to your patients . robin : well , that 's a little over the top , do n't you think ? patrick : dr. scorpio is fully capable of deciding when she 's ready to get back to work . russell : i want you off the clock , starting now . robin : whoa -- this is silly . look , i 'm off my pain meds . i 'm perfectly capable of consulting with a patient . russell : it is not up for debate . you need to be off the premises , unless you 're here for physical therapy or your own treatment . monica : excuse me , dr. ford , but i do n't believe this is your call to make . you 're not chief of staff -- not yet , anyway . [ scene_break ] nikolas : hey , what are you doing ? lucky : hey , do you think i can get a tax write - off if i donate five cans of pink paint to charity ? nikolas : um -- really ? i 'm sorry . well , first off , you would need to find a charity that would actually want pink paint . lucky : right . nikolas : i 'm sorry . look , elizabeth has her heart set on some other color -- cream or whatever -- and you need to learn that you -- you ca n't argue with a pregnant woman . lucky : listen , do you got something against girls ? nikolas : no , no ! look , i 'm a -- i 'm a proud parent of a little boy , and i can -- i can understand the virtues of a son . that 's all -- that 's all i 'm saying . lucky : i would love for a little boy , but it kind of scares me . nikolas : why ? lucky : i mean , what if it turns out like me ? nikolas : you -- what ? are you -- are you afraid that you 'll have the relationship with him like the one you have with your own father ? what ? lucky : listen , i do n't want to worry about a little boy 's spencer genes battling with my spencer genes . i mean , with a little girl , i can just , you know , treat her like a princess . nikolas : right . right -- until she becomes a teenager , at which point you 'll pull your hair out one strand at a time . lucky : i do n't know , i just -- you know , it 'd be nice to have a daughter i can name laura . nikolas : all right , well , i vote for that . in the meantime , there are walls that need to be primed -- that are n't pink . luke : heads up , cowboy . my gut tells me little miss maxie jones is out for revenge . [ scene_break ] maxie : so how did you already get into trouble with luke spencer ? logan : i just met the man . maxie : well , he 's kind of a legend around here . logan : i 'm not that impressed , and you should n't be , either . lulu 's old man had some harsh words for you . maxie : all of that is ancient history . i was pointlessly hung up on his son , lucky , but coops knows all about it . coop : except for the history part . maxie : look , lucky and elizabeth are in love with each other , okay ? they 're expecting a child , a real child -- not a fake one like mine -- end of story . logan : yeah , right . coop : hey , so what if she 's still hung up on lucky ? i mean , how shallow would it be if she got over him just like that ? logan : aw . maxie : thank you , but i 'm seriously trying to put all of that behind me . luke was right about one thing -- i would love to get even with lulu . [ scene_break ] carly : i do n't get it . you were the one who said we were over . why would you want to take me out to dinner , and what makes you think i would even go ? jax : you said you and sonny were over , and you 're having dinner with him , so i thought maybe it 's a trend . carly : do n't make this funny . it 's not funny . jax : i know it 's not funny . `` funny `` is the furthest thing from my mind right now . i just do n't want you trying to convince me that you 're having dinner with sonny so you can get cheap marble . carly : i did n't say `` cheap , `` i said `` inexpensive , `` and there happens to be a difference , and i 'm not going to be a part of you one - upping sonny . jax : what gave you that idea ? carly : because it 's nothing but a competition for you and you know it ! jax : oh , you 're the one who put sonny in the middle of our relationship . carly : you were so much more tolerant of sonny when we were engaged , you know that ? jax : well , that 's because i knew where your heart was , okay ? we had a commitment , and now i just do n't know anymore . carly : and you chose to un - commit . jax : yeah , well , obviously , you do n't care enough about me -- about us -- to keep fighting , do you ? carly : no , no , that 's not true , and do n't turn this around on me , jax . lulu : oh , sorry . um -- i need to see carly . carly : see ? see ? you know , sometimes there are real emergencies , real ones . jax : yeah , well , at least we both know that marble is n't one of them -- you always know where you can get that . [ carly sighs ] carly : what 's going on ? what 's wrong ? lulu : okay , um , you said that elizabeth is into jason ? how into him is she ? [ scene_break ] jason : hi . elizabeth : hi . we 're in the middle of painting cameron 's room -- and -- and the baby 's room at our -- at our new house -- is lucky 's old house , but now we 're moving in and -- you know , we 're having a hard time picking out paint colors because lucky thinks he wants it pink , and i told him i do n't think it 's a good idea . he sent me out to go get brushes because he does n't want me around those paint fumes , so -- jason : well , he 's -- he 's right about that -- you should n't be around the fumes . uh , how -- how are you feeling ? elizabeth : good . the baby 's doing really well . how are you ? jason : you know , when i see you like this , when i see you happy , i know i did the right thing . [ scene_break ] robin : i 'm here to consult on my patient 's drug therapy . i think i can handle that . russell : i know all about mrs. bernstein 's status . any number of doctors can handle her , including dr. drake here . monica : just a -- just a minute . let 's back up here . where did you get the power to make these decisions ? russell : i 'm doing this for the good of the hospital -- and your career , dr. quartermaine . monica : my career ? russell : yes . you allow this young woman to come back to work before she 's strong enough and she collapses and worse , botches a patient 's treatment , it reflects badly on the hospital as an institution , and hinders any chance you have of becoming appointed chief of staff . robin : fine , i 'll leave . patrick and monica : no . robin : no . i am not going to let dr. ford use me against monica . alan quartermaine saved my life , and i will not undermine his wife or his work under any circumstances . so if that means letting you win this round , well , that 's fine with me . patrick : robin , we can -- robin : no , no , no , it 's fine . i 'll just wait for my surgeon to give me the go- ahead . monica : okay , you won . are you happy about what just happened ? russell : i regret we had to do this in public , but it was necessary . patrick : i 'll give you `` regret . `` you lack compassion . you know very little about people , and you do n't respect the doctors that devote their lives to this hospital . russell : i do n't remember asking your opinion , doctor . patrick : well , people like you seldom do -- i know because i was one of them , and i am grateful every single day that i 'm over it . [ scene_break ] carly : what has elizabeth done now ? lulu : no , no , it was nothing . i just saw something that made me think about how elizabeth and jason always seem to end up connected . carly : oh , i do n't even want to think -- no . just when you think it 's safe , elizabeth shows up all googly - eyed at jason , and he 's such a softie he falls for it every time . this is unbelievable to me because she 's about to marry lucky , she 's getting ready to have his baby , but she ca n't let jason go , can she ? lulu : well , and she claims that they 're just friends . carly : yeah , well , you know , the only saving grace to all of this is that lucky is the father of that baby . so tell me , what exactly did you see ? this is important . lulu : i mean , nothing . it was -- i mean , they were talking . i know -- it 's -- it 's stupid . i overreacted . i 'm sorry . i totally wasted your time . thank you , though . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : i 'm sorry . i probably should n't be talking to you about paint colors . jason : it 's -- it 's okay . i do n't mind hearing about your plans . so , did you pick a color ? elizabeth : yeah , we did . cameron picked out the color of the santa fe train -- his choice , not mine -- and lucky and i agreed on a creamy yellow . i 'm going to do a mural for the wall , but i have n't picked out a theme yet . jason : yeah , when -- it 's funny , because when michael was young , i used to read him this travel book about africa , you know , and elephants and giraffes and lions and monkeys -- you know , kids love those animals -- and , you know , dinosaurs , of course . elizabeth : i like elephants and giraffes . that 's a good idea . maybe i 'll do that . [ phone rings ] jason : excuse me . elizabeth : sure . carly : jason , where are you ? jason : i 'm on the pier . why ? carly : are you alone ? jason : what do you need ? carly : i need to see you , it 's urgent . jason : are you in trouble ? carly : i 'm not the one you need to worry about . [ scene_break ] lulu : hey . spinelli : hey , you get my message ? lulu : yeah , what are we going to do ? [ scene_break ] maxie : when spinelli shows up , lulu is never far behind . he 's like her own personal , love - struck information highway . logan : lulu said he 's the one who 's got the information about baldwin killing rick webber . maxie : okay , well , spinelli probably has all the information we need to blackmail scott stored on his computer . logan : so how do we get it out of spinelli ? maxie : you leave that part up to me . i 'm just going to need a little help from coop . [ scene_break ] lulu : okay , okay , maybe i am freaking out about nothing . it 's totally possible that you read the g.h . file wrong . i mean , elizabeth and jason could 've had a one - night stand , and -- and she could 've thought that maybe he was the father . spinelli : okay , check it out . it 's in a file called `` for lulu 's eyes only , `` okay ? it 's a paternity test -- they checked the d.n.a . stone cold 's definitely the dad . lulu : well , maybe someone tampered with the test -- it happens all the time . spinelli : no , it 's the first thing i checked . come on , i am , after all , the jackal . come on . all right , look at the -- come on , look -- look at the archive - modification date , okay ? no one ever logged on to overwrite the result . i 'm sorry , but , i mean , big daddy stone cold is definitely this baby 's big daddy . lulu : oh , my god , and lucky has no idea . spinelli : um -- okay -- all right , this is the only proof , okay ? i mean , i could just -- i could just hit `` delete , `` and no one will be the wiser . lulu : no , no , no , no , no . do n't do anything yet . i -- i do n't know what to do . spinelli : i mean , do you -- do you want lucky to find out ? lulu : well , lucky deserves to know the truth . i mean , it would tear him up , but i -- i do n't know if i should keep a secret like this . okay -- um -- just keep the file on your computer , and -- and promise , you can not tell anybody about this -- unless you think that someone could ck into your computer . spinelli : okay , blond one , my firewalls have firewalls . i am the king of redundant systems , no worries . lulu : all right , all right , thank you , spinelli , i owe you . spinelli : it was my pleasure and my honor . bye . maxie : it 's showtime . [ scene_break ] robin : it 's official -- i 've run out of secret thinking - spots , you know them all . patrick : well , i have to admit i went to the park first . i was hoping you 'd skip the stairs -- not quite sure if you 're ready for them yet . robin : i just want you to know that if it was n't for putting monica on the spot , i would 've body - slammed dr. ford . patrick : i know you can fight your own battles , but i gave ford a little mental body - slam before i came to find you . you want to be alone ? robin : no . yes , i know i was shot . yes , i know that i almost died -- as you always remind me -- but look , i 'm -- i 'm getting better . patrick : that 's great . but i wish instead of caning through the bitter cold , you 'd find a more stimulating course of physical therapy . robin : oh , really ? well , since i am in the business of making your dreams come true , what 's your fantasy ? [ scene_break ] elizabeth : hey . emily : hey . [ elizabeth gasps ] elizabeth : is that food ? emily : yeah , it is . elizabeth : oh , my god , is it eli 's ? emily : yep . elizabeth : you 're the best . emily : i went while you were gone . i took the shortcut by the pier . the way you and jason looked , i ca n't help wondering if you 're sure about remarrying lucky . elizabeth : i care about jason and i always will . that 's all . emily : that 's a lot . elizabeth : okay , look , your brother and i helped each other out when our lives were falling apart , and i 'm not going to lie to and say i do n't think about what it would be like to be with him , but i realized that it would n't work for me -- or for him . emily : so you 're sure about lucky ? elizabeth : do n't i look sure ? i 'm not torn or wondering if i made the right decision . my heart is with lucky . emily : okay . i 'm -- i 'm sorry i brought it up , elizabeth . elizabeth : that 's okay , it 's been crazy . but you know what helps me , is knowing that we have each other . emily : i do n't know what i would 've done without you guys . listen , i have to get to the hospital . elizabeth : okay . thanks for everything . emily : yeah . i 'm just so happy for you . elizabeth : thank you . [ emily chuckles ] elizabeth : okay , i love you . emily : love you , too . bye . [ emily sighs ] lucky : what -- what , we lost emily , too ? elizabeth : yep , it 's just you and me . lucky : wow . elizabeth : and since you compromised so well on the color of the room , i 'm going to give you final approval of the mural . lucky : are you sure ? elizabeth : mm - hmm . african animals -- you know , like elephants , giraffes , all in family groups . there are mommy giraffes and daddies and babies . lucky : yeah , well , be sure to add a big brother , too . elizabeth : so you like it ? lucky : i love it -- like i love you . elizabeth : good . lucky : oh . and from the way she 's kicking , i 'd say baby loves it , too . [ scene_break ] jason : what 's the emergency ? carly : okay . lulu came to see me , and she was rattled and had tons of questions about you and elizabeth . what 's going on ? jason : uh -- we 're friends . you know that . carly : lulu would n't be that upset about friends , jason . jason : carly , do n't -- do n't -- carly : no , elizabeth will never make you happy , she wo n't . she 's going to tell you all the things that are wrong with you and she 's going to try and change everything . jason : elizabeth is about to have a baby , she and lucky are together and are happy , so just -- just leave it alone . carly : i do n't to make you mad at me , but i do n't want elizabeth to use you . i 'm concerned . jason : i -- all right . i know that you 're all wound up about jax and sonny and you ca n't figure out what to do , so you 're going to distract yourself by trying to run my life . okay , you need to stop . i 'm dealing with so much . you just need to stop . okay ?

brooke : ( chuckles ) you certainly did n't waste any time . ridge : well , you heard spencer . after the preview , he wants more designs for the dare line . steffy : hey , that 's a great sign . that means our plan is working . ridge : well , let 's not get overconfident here . it 's still very risky what we 're doin ' . look , with the , uh , launch only a few days away , we have to make sure that no one lets any of this out , okay ? this is very , very risky , but if we win , we win big . but if we lose ... brooke : i , for one , ca n't wait for this deception to be over because i hate lying to my sister , and so does donna . we have a lot more at stake here than just forrester creations . we could damage our relationship with our sister forever . [ scene_break ] katie : so that 's why i asked you here . i want your opinion on the dare line . jarrett : my opinion ? katie : mm - hmm . you 've been covering forrester for years now . no one knows ridge and eric 's designs better . jarrett : well ... ( chuckles ) and to think i was actually feeling a little slighted not being invited to the preview earlier today . katie : no one was invited . it was a closed preview . the line is top secret . in fact , i 've seen very little of the collection -- three designs , to be precise . but that 's going to change right now . [ scene_break ] sandy : ( sighs ) thank you . nick : yeah . sandy : you know , when i think of all the other women who -- there 's so many other women who 've been through what i 've been through , who really , truly believe that everything possible is being done to catch these animals -- deluding ourselves , believing that justice is going to be done , when justice never -- never stood a chance . nick : you 'll get your justice , sandy . i 'll see to it . [ scene_break ] nick : it 'll take a few days for the results of the d.n.a . testing . so we just have to hope baker gets enough to make an arrest . sandy : in my case . but what about all the others ? i mean , the evidence in their case is still sitting there , piled up on top of boxes just -- just locked away , pushed aside and forgotten . nick : well , you heard what the lieutenant said . it 's -- sandy : you know what i heard ? i heard a whole lot about budget cuts and about lack of man power and about how other cases get higher priority . that just -- those -- those explanations just sound like excuses to me . these women did the right thing coming forward , going to the cops , and this is how they were treated ? we 're better than that . as a society , it 's not who we are as -- as a people . those backlogs are unacceptable . something has to be done , nick . [ scene_break ] ridge : logan , if there were any other way ... we are in the right here , you know ? brooke : and that 's supposed to make it easier ? ( sighs ) ridge , donna , katie and i , we have this relationship . it 's built on trust . i mean , even if i went to her right now -- steffy : oh , you 're not thinking about doing that , are you ? ridge : logan , are you losing your resolve ? brooke : no . no , but i am very uncomfortable . [ scene_break ] jarrett : i 'm sorry . i do n't quite follow . katie : i 'm having marcus bring up the rest of the designs from the cutting room . jarrett : you 're giving me a sneak peek ? katie : mm - hmm , yes . and in return , you will give me your honest , objective opinion . jarrett : uh , which i 'm happy to do , of course , but with ridge and eric being back together , i - i ca n't fathom the new line not rocking the fashion world . ( knock on door ) katie : oh , great . come on in . marcus : all right . katie : thank you . marcus : yeah . katie : anyone give you any problems ? marcus : no . oh , but brooke did make a point of saying -- katie : do n't worry about brooke . i 'm sure she knows you 're just doing what i want you to do . marcus : okay , um ... ( chuckles ) anything else ? katie : that 'll do it . thank you so much . marcus : all right . jarrett : oh , my word . eric and ridge -- what have they done ? i ca n't believe it . [ scene_break ] sandy : you know , if this is happening here , then we can be sure that it 's happening in other places , too , and meanwhile , women who are just like me , who 've been through exactly what i 've been through , are waiting , you know ? they 're -- they 're hoping and praying every day that the phone is gon na ring , and the officer is gon na say , `` we got him , and we have exactly what we need to put him away . `` and that 's never gon na happen ? it 's never gon na happen because somebody somewhere decided the police have to do with less ? nick , if that means a room piled to the ceiling with untested d.n.a . , it 's just not right . and if it were n't for you , i would n't know any of this . i would still be completely clueless . you know , i - it 's really because of you . i have -- i have hope that they might actually find the person who did this to me . nick : sandy , i did n't do anything . sandy : no , you did . no , nick , it is because of you that i have this hope , and i do n't -- how do i ever thank you for that ? [ scene_break ] brooke : ( sighs ) marcus should have been here by now . steffy : he still has no idea about what we 're doing , right ? brooke : no , donna did n't want to put him in the middle , especially since justin works for bill . the designs from the cutting room -- did you forget them ? marcus : no , i got a message earlier from katie saying that she wanted to see them first . she said that would n't be a problem . and since she is c.e.o . , i just figured that it would be okay . ridge : ( sighs ) marcus : i hope i did n't screw anything up . ridge : no , marcus . it 's not you . it 's not you . look , we 'll -- we 'll handle it , okay ? thanks . marcus : okay . brooke : ( groans ) steffy : oh , my god . that means she 's still suspicious if she 's asking to see the designs . ridge : worse , she 's up in her office right now looking at them , all of them , including -- brooke : your most outrageous design yet . [ scene_break ] katie : so you 've had a chance to review the collection . what do you think ? jarrett : well , i 'm actually not quite sure what to think . katie : well , you either like it or you do n't . i need an honest reaction , jarrett . if you ca n't give me one or wo n't , then -- jarrett : ( stammers ) it 's not a question of wo n't . it 's just -- how to put this diplomatically ? katie : i do n't want you to be diplomatic . i want you to be honest with me . is this collection as bad as i think it is ? jarrett : no . katie : no ? jarrett : it 's worse . atrocious , even . i 'm -- and yet , from the look of these designs , it 's almost as if -- katie : as if the forresters are sabotaging their own collection ? jarrett : katie , no . you 're not telling me -- you sure ? katie : i do n't know . but from your reaction ... jarrett : wha -- there -- there have been instances in the past when i 've questioned ridge and eric 's design direction , and i - i have been wrong . ( sighs ) that must be the case this time . eric would never do anything to compromise his -- his reputation . i mean , if he thinks these are good , they -- they must be .

[ scene_break ] nick : well , bravo . it is -- it is nice to finally see you like this . i 've been waiting for the -- the real sandy sommers to show up , and i can see she is here in full force . sandy : you know what ? i 'm not gon na stop fighting either . and i do n't -- i do n't just mean for myself . i mean for all those other women . nobody should ever have to go through what i went through , but i do n't just mean what that sicko did to me that night . i mean everything that has or has n't happened since that moment . nick : well , with any luck , the d.n.a . tests will come back , we 'll get the results we want , and -- and we 'll nail this guy . sandy : i hope so . it has to , right ? nick : ( clears throat ) listen , sandy , i do n't -- i do n't feel comfortable not telling bridget about this . it -- it just does n't feel right to me , you know ? i took an oath of truth and honesty . sandy : nick , no . please , okay ? no , not -- not yet . let 's at least wait and see what we learn . bridget : hey . what 's up , you two ? [ scene_break ] ridge : i feel like i should have gone with her . brooke should n't have to face her sister on her own , especially since it was mine and dad 's idea to begin with . oh , brooke never wanted to mislead katie . why did i have her do this ? why did i ask any of you to do this ? steffy : dad , come on . this is a brilliant plan . and if it works , we get forrester creations back in our hands . ridge : yeah , but at what cost ? especially to brooke and donna and their relationship with their sister . we 're always talking about how important family is here , family above everything else . but if what we 've done winds up splitting those sisters apart , nothing 's worth that , steffy . [ scene_break ] brooke : you wanted to see me ? katie : yes , come on in . close the door . ( door closes ) katie : i 'm assuming that marcus already told you that i wanted to see the rest of the designs . brooke : ( sighs ) i wish you had waited . katie : for what ? for ridge and eric so they can do another sales job and tell everyone how cutting edge these are ? and if anyone disagrees , they 're just not seeing the true genius behind their work ? brooke : uh , if this is your way of saying that you 're not really feeling these designs -- katie : what i 'm feeling is a little naive , a little foolish for what i asked my husband on christmas eve . i told him that what i really wanted for christmas was for him to give the company back to the forresters , that i did n't care about money or power . family was more important to me , and we were being shut out . brooke : nobody 's shutting you out . katie : right . right . you do n't have a problem with me . it 's just my husband , the man that i love , that you ca n't stand . you want to know what hurt the most about being excluded for the holidays ? i think i realized for the first time just -- just how far apart we are and how deep the rift is between you and donna and me , and it 's a rift that 's never been there before . we both know why , do n't we ? [ scene_break ] bridget : my goodness . you two seemed really intense when i walked in here . then she just ran off like that . i was really hoping to get to talk to her . nick : because she 's responsible . you know , her boss needs her . she has a job now . bridget : you know , i really , really hope stephanie is n't overworking her . she is carrying our baby , after all . nick : would you stop with this -- the worrying ? `` miss worrywart `` always worrying . bridget : i 'm trying . i am . nick : no ? bridget : it 's just hard . nick : i understand . we have to be kind of positive and enjoy this part of our life , right , and understand that , you know , something bad is n't going to happen to spoil it . i promise . bridget : really ? nick : yeah . bridget : are you positive ? 'cause i - i 'd love your personal guarantee on that . nick : i have it right here in a written letter . ( clears throat ) let 's see . uh , ahh , yes . here it is . um , `` to , uh , bridget ... `` bridget : mm - hmm . nick : `` and nick marone , a loving , deserving couple . they have gone through their share of challenges ... `` oh , yeah . `` but they have overcome them , and they deserve to live happily ever after in love and kindness . signed ... `` bridget : who ? nick : i ca n't really -- bridget : what ? where is it ? nick : i ca n't quite make out that signature ... bridget : oh , really ? nick : but i do know , um , it guarantees how much i love you . bridget : ( chuckles ) nick : ( chuckles ) bridget : guess what ? nick : hmm ? bridget : i heard a little rumor . nick : okay , i love rumors . tell me everything now . bridget : i know you do . i heard it . it 's about the dare line at forrester . nick : oh , god . let me guess . it 's ridge and eric 's best work ever . bridget : no . no , it 's not . confidentially , they told me it 's a little weird . it 's not as classy and elegant at all , they said ... nick : really ? bridget : as , you know , the usual forrester lines . nick : mm - hmm . of course . bridget : i think it 's because -- maybe bill spencer . everything 's different now , and he 's taken control . and i - i wonder if my dad 's just lost his inspiration . nick : i do n't know . but lucky for me , i have n't lost mine , 'cause i 'm lookin ' at her right here . [ scene_break ] steffy : dad , i do n't want to see that either -- sisters being torn apart . but if katie had n't married bill in the first place , which i still do n't get . he 's so not her type . anyway , i 'm sure brooke will stay strong and not let katie guilt - trip her into saying more than she should . [ scene_break ] brooke : it 's been a difficult time for everybody . katie : see ? see ? that 's the thing . i - i really felt like -- like things were starting to work , that we were all starting to get along . eric came back to the company . he 's designing with ridge again . i felt good about what was happening here , and then i find out that my husband is n't welcome at christmas . brooke : katie -- katie : and i do n't want to hear any more how eric should n't be forced to have bill in his house , the man who robbed him of his company , because you know that 's not how it happened . bill paid top dollar for this company . he did n't steal anything . eric lost the company . and that may be difficult for you and eric and everyone else to admit . it may be like a knife in ridge and eric 's gut , but let me tell you something . having everyone treat my husband like some kind of pariah is like a knife in mine . brooke : oh , honey , we do n't want to hurt you , especially not donna and me . we love you . katie : and i love you . you 're my family . and family means more to me than anything . you mean more to me than anything . i have always gone to you for advice , for guidance , because i have always known that you wo n't lie to me . you may not tell me what i want to hear . you may not make it easy , but you will tell me the truth , and that 's what i need from you right now . i am gon na ask you one more time for the truth . i want you to tell me if the dare line is legitimate . i need to know that i can trust you . i need to know that eric and ridge and , most importantly , you and donna are working with me to make this company great . is this great ? or is it sabotage ? can i trust you ? or are you betraying me ? and i am trying so hard not to believe that you 're betraying me , brooke . i am trying so hard . but then i look at -- at these designs . i look at these designs , and i think , are these for real ? ! i - i -- this dress -- this dress -- i mean , is this for real ? are any -- any of these dresses for real ? or is this just a joke with me as the punch line ? would you let them do that to your own sister ? i need you to answer me . tell me the truth .
ridge tells brooke and steffy that these new designs are still very risky . the milan showing is just a few days away and no one should get a leak of this . brooke feels badly since her position with her sister is built on trust . katie tells jarrett that they have never previewed their collection , but this is a change . she wants his honest , objective opinion . he ca n't believe what he is seeing ; that eric and ridge designed this ! marcus tells ridge and brooke that he delivered the designs to katie . he hopes he did nothing wrong . ridge says no , but it means that katie still may have some doubts . katie asks jarrett if the designs are as bad as she thinks . he says it is worse . that does it ; she is sure they are trying to sabotage their own collection . he does n't believe her sisters would knowingly deceive her , so it must mean that eric thinks these are great designs , a new future . nick tells sandy that she will get her justice . he will see to it . she says all those backlogs are unacceptable ; something has to be done . she gives credit to nick . without him , she would still be clueless . now she has some hope and she can never thank him enough for that . nick is upbeat . he tells sandy with some luck the dna results will come back and they will find her sicko . he tells her that he 'd like to tell bridget . it does n't feel right to keep all of this from her . she gets him to hold off for now until they do or do not get the results . bridget pops in and thinks sandy and nick were pretty intense and then sandy just ran off . he tells her to stop worrying ; something very positive is happening .

[ scene_break ] nick : it 'll take a few days for the results of the d.n.a . testing . so we just have to hope baker gets enough to make an arrest . sandy : in my case . but what about all the others ? i mean , the evidence in their case is still sitting there , piled up on top of boxes just -- just locked away , pushed aside and forgotten . nick : well , you heard what the lieutenant said . it 's -- sandy : you know what i heard ? i heard a whole lot about budget cuts and about lack of man power and about how other cases get higher priority . that just -- those -- those explanations just sound like excuses to me . these women did the right thing coming forward , going to the cops , and this is how they were treated ? we 're better than that . as a society , it 's not who we are as -- as a people . those backlogs are unacceptable . something has to be done , nick . [ scene_break ] ridge : logan , if there were any other way ... we are in the right here , you know ? brooke : and that 's supposed to make it easier ? ( sighs ) ridge , donna , katie and i , we have this relationship . it 's built on trust . i mean , even if i went to her right now -- steffy : oh , you 're not thinking about doing that , are you ? ridge : logan , are you losing your resolve ? brooke : no . no , but i am very uncomfortable . [ scene_break ] jarrett : i 'm sorry . i do n't quite follow . katie : i 'm having marcus bring up the rest of the designs from the cutting room . jarrett : you 're giving me a sneak peek ? katie : mm - hmm , yes . and in return , you will give me your honest , objective opinion . jarrett : uh , which i 'm happy to do , of course , but with ridge and eric being back together , i - i ca n't fathom the new line not rocking the fashion world . ( knock on door ) katie : oh , great . come on in . marcus : all right . katie : thank you . marcus : yeah . katie : anyone give you any problems ? marcus : no . oh , but brooke did make a point of saying -- katie : do n't worry about brooke . i 'm sure she knows you 're just doing what i want you to do . marcus : okay , um ... ( chuckles ) anything else ? katie : that 'll do it . thank you so much . marcus : all right . jarrett : oh , my word . eric and ridge -- what have they done ? i ca n't believe it . [ scene_break ] sandy : you know , if this is happening here , then we can be sure that it 's happening in other places , too , and meanwhile , women who are just like me , who 've been through exactly what i 've been through , are waiting , you know ? they 're -- they 're hoping and praying every day that the phone is gon na ring , and the officer is gon na say , `` we got him , and we have exactly what we need to put him away . `` and that 's never gon na happen ? it 's never gon na happen because somebody somewhere decided the police have to do with less ? nick , if that means a room piled to the ceiling with untested d.n.a . , it 's just not right . and if it were n't for you , i would n't know any of this . i would still be completely clueless . you know , i - it 's really because of you . i have -- i have hope that they might actually find the person who did this to me . nick : sandy , i did n't do anything . sandy : no , you did . no , nick , it is because of you that i have this hope , and i do n't -- how do i ever thank you for that ? [ scene_break ] brooke : ( sighs ) marcus should have been here by now . steffy : he still has no idea about what we 're doing , right ? brooke : no , donna did n't want to put him in the middle , especially since justin works for bill . the designs from the cutting room -- did you forget them ? marcus : no , i got a message earlier from katie saying that she wanted to see them first . she said that would n't be a problem . and since she is c.e.o . , i just figured that it would be okay . ridge : ( sighs ) marcus : i hope i did n't screw anything up . ridge : no , marcus . it 's not you . it 's not you . look , we 'll -- we 'll handle it , okay ? thanks . marcus : okay . brooke : ( groans ) steffy : oh , my god . that means she 's still suspicious if she 's asking to see the designs . ridge : worse , she 's up in her office right now looking at them , all of them , including -- brooke : your most outrageous design yet . [ scene_break ] katie : so you 've had a chance to review the collection . what do you think ? jarrett : well , i 'm actually not quite sure what to think . katie : well , you either like it or you do n't . i need an honest reaction , jarrett . if you ca n't give me one or wo n't , then -- jarrett : ( stammers ) it 's not a question of wo n't . it 's just -- how to put this diplomatically ? katie : i do n't want you to be diplomatic . i want you to be honest with me . is this collection as bad as i think it is ? jarrett : no . katie : no ? jarrett : it 's worse . atrocious , even . i 'm -- and yet , from the look of these designs , it 's almost as if -- katie : as if the forresters are sabotaging their own collection ? jarrett : katie , no . you 're not telling me -- you sure ? katie : i do n't know . but from your reaction ... jarrett : wha -- there -- there have been instances in the past when i 've questioned ridge and eric 's design direction , and i - i have been wrong . ( sighs ) that must be the case this time . eric would never do anything to compromise his -- his reputation . i mean , if he thinks these are good , they -- they must be . ( sighs ) besides , brooke and donna are your sisters . they 'd never knowingly deceive you , would they ? [ scene_break ] katie : ( scoffs ) hi , it 's me . i need to see you in my office right away . drop whatever you 're doing . it 's important . ( phone hangs up ) ridge : katie ? brooke : she wants to see me right away . steffy : did she say about what ? brooke : i think we already know that . ridge : logan , if your sister 's on to us , what are you gon na do ? how are you gon na handle this ? [ scene_break ] nick : well , bravo . it is -- it is nice to finally see you like this . i 've been waiting for the -- the real sandy sommers to show up , and i can see she is here in full force . sandy : you know what ? i 'm not gon na stop fighting either . and i do n't -- i do n't just mean for myself . i mean for all those other women . nobody should ever have to go through what i went through , but i do n't just mean what that sicko did to me that night . i mean everything that has or has n't happened since that moment . nick : well , with any luck , the d.n.a . tests will come back , we 'll get the results we want , and -- and we 'll nail this guy . sandy : i hope so . it has to , right ? nick : ( clears throat ) listen , sandy , i do n't -- i do n't feel comfortable not telling bridget about this . it -- it just does n't feel right to me , you know ? i took an oath of truth and honesty . sandy : nick , no . please , okay ? no , not -- not yet . let 's at least wait and see what we learn . bridget : hey . what 's up , you two ? [ scene_break ] ridge : i feel like i should have gone with her . brooke should n't have to face her sister on her own , especially since it was mine and dad 's idea to begin with . oh , brooke never wanted to mislead katie . why did i have her do this ? why did i ask any of you to do this ? steffy : dad , come on . this is a brilliant plan . and if it works , we get forrester creations back in our hands . ridge : yeah , but at what cost ? especially to brooke and donna and their relationship with their sister . we 're always talking about how important family is here , family above everything else . but if what we 've done winds up splitting those sisters apart , nothing 's worth that , steffy . [ scene_break ] brooke : you wanted to see me ? katie : yes , come on in . close the door . ( door closes ) katie : i 'm assuming that marcus already told you that i wanted to see the rest of the designs . brooke : ( sighs ) i wish you had waited . katie : for what ? for ridge and eric so they can do another sales job and tell everyone how cutting edge these are ? and if anyone disagrees , they 're just not seeing the true genius behind their work ? brooke : uh , if this is your way of saying that you 're not really feeling these designs -- katie : what i 'm feeling is a little naive , a little foolish for what i asked my husband on christmas eve . i told him that what i really wanted for christmas was for him to give the company back to the forresters , that i did n't care about money or power . family was more important to me , and we were being shut out . brooke : nobody 's shutting you out . katie : right . right . you do n't have a problem with me . it 's just my husband , the man that i love , that you ca n't stand . you want to know what hurt the most about being excluded for the holidays ? i think i realized for the first time just -- just how far apart we are and how deep the rift is between you and donna and me , and it 's a rift that 's never been there before . we both know why , do n't we ? [ scene_break ] bridget : my goodness . you two seemed really intense when i walked in here . then she just ran off like that . i was really hoping to get to talk to her . nick : because she 's responsible . you know , her boss needs her . she has a job now . bridget : you know , i really , really hope stephanie is n't overworking her . she is carrying our baby , after all . nick : would you stop with this -- the worrying ? `` miss worrywart `` always worrying . bridget : i 'm trying . i am . nick : no ? bridget : it 's just hard . nick : i understand . we have to be kind of positive and enjoy this part of our life , right , and understand that , you know , something bad is n't going to happen to spoil it . i promise . bridget : really ? nick : yeah . bridget : are you positive ? 'cause i - i 'd love your personal guarantee on that . nick : i have it right here in a written letter . ( clears throat ) let 's see . uh , ahh , yes . here it is . um , `` to , uh , bridget ... `` bridget : mm - hmm . nick : `` and nick marone , a loving , deserving couple . they have gone through their share of challenges ... `` oh , yeah . `` but they have overcome them , and they deserve to live happily ever after in love and kindness . signed ... `` bridget : who ? nick : i ca n't really -- bridget : what ? where is it ? nick : i ca n't quite make out that signature ... bridget : oh , really ? nick : but i do know , um , it guarantees how much i love you . bridget : ( chuckles ) nick : ( chuckles ) bridget : guess what ? nick : hmm ? bridget : i heard a little rumor . nick : okay , i love rumors . tell me everything now . bridget : i know you do . i heard it . it 's about the dare line at forrester . nick : oh , god . let me guess . it 's ridge and eric 's best work ever . bridget : no . no , it 's not . confidentially , they told me it 's a little weird . it 's not as classy and elegant at all , they said ... nick : really ? bridget : as , you know , the usual forrester lines . nick : mm - hmm . of course . bridget : i think it 's because -- maybe bill spencer . everything 's different now , and he 's taken control . and i - i wonder if my dad 's just lost his inspiration . nick : i do n't know . but lucky for me , i have n't lost mine , 'cause i 'm lookin ' at her right here . [ scene_break ] steffy : dad , i do n't want to see that either -- sisters being torn apart . but if katie had n't married bill in the first place , which i still do n't get . he 's so not her type . anyway , i 'm sure brooke will stay strong and not let katie guilt - trip her into saying more than she should . [ scene_break ] brooke : it 's been a difficult time for everybody . katie : see ? see ? that 's the thing . i - i really felt like -- like things were starting to work , that we were all starting to get along . eric came back to the company . he 's designing with ridge again . i felt good about what was happening here , and then i find out that my husband is n't welcome at christmas . brooke : katie -- katie : and i do n't want to hear any more how eric should n't be forced to have bill in his house , the man who robbed him of his company , because you know that 's not how it happened . bill paid top dollar for this company . he did n't steal anything . eric lost the company . and that may be difficult for you and eric and everyone else to admit . it may be like a knife in ridge and eric 's gut , but let me tell you something . having everyone treat my husband like some kind of pariah is like a knife in mine . brooke : oh , honey , we do n't want to hurt you , especially not donna and me . we love you . katie : and i love you . you 're my family . and family means more to me than anything . you mean more to me than anything . i have always gone to you for advice , for guidance , because i have always known that you wo n't lie to me . you may not tell me what i want to hear . you may not make it easy , but you will tell me the truth , and that 's what i need from you right now . i am gon na ask you one more time for the truth . i want you to tell me if the dare line is legitimate . i need to know that i can trust you . i need to know that eric and ridge and , most importantly , you and donna are working with me to make this company great . is this great ? or is it sabotage ? can i trust you ? or are you betraying me ? and i am trying so hard not to believe that you 're betraying me , brooke . i am trying so hard . but then i look at -- at these designs . i look at these designs , and i think , are these for real ? ! i - i -- this dress -- this dress -- i mean , is this for real ? are any -- any of these dresses for real ? or is this just a joke with me as the punch line ? would you let them do that to your own sister ? i need you to answer me . tell me the truth .Summarize.[/INST]ridge tells brooke and steffy that these new designs are still very risky . the milan showing is just a few days away and no one should get a leak of this . brooke feels badly since her position with her sister is built on trust . katie tells jarrett that they have never previewed their collection , but this is a change . she wants his honest , objective opinion . he ca n't believe what he is seeing ; that eric and ridge designed this ! marcus tells ridge and brooke that he delivered the designs to katie . he hopes he did nothing wrong . ridge says no , but it means that katie still may have some doubts . katie asks jarrett if the designs are as bad as she thinks . he says it is worse . that does it ; she is sure they are trying to sabotage their own collection . he does n't believe her sisters would knowingly deceive her , so it must mean that eric thinks these are great designs , a new future . nick tells sandy that she will get her justice . he will see to it . she says all those backlogs are unacceptable ; something has to be done . she gives credit to nick . without him , she would still be clueless . now she has some hope and she can never thank him enough for that . nick is upbeat . he tells sandy with some luck the dna results will come back and they will find her sicko . he tells her that he 'd like to tell bridget . it does n't feel right to keep all of this from her . she gets him to hold off for now until they do or do not get the results . bridget pops in and thinks sandy and nick were pretty intense and then sandy just ran off . he tells her to stop worrying ; something very positive is happening .</s>

jill : so ... what did you find out ? paul : well , it 's a go . i finally tracked down violet 's brother -- langley ashby -- jill : does he know where phillip is ? paul : uh , well , we 've been playing phone tag , but i decided it would be better if he talked to you directly . so he 's gon na be calling me soon . jill : wait , what am i to say to him when he asks who i am ? kay : i will explain to him . jill : katherine , i could n't go through that again . kay : are you sure phillip 's still alive ? paul : i probably would 've found a death certificate . jill : i do n't know if i can do this . i do n't know if i can do this . i mean , maybe we should just leave everything the way it is . [ scene_break ] amber : a girl can only wait so long . will you marry me ? cane : oh , i do n't know . amber : so much for your sense of adventure . cane : look , all jokes aside , my soon - to - expire visa is my problem . i ca n't ask you to do this . amber : you did n't . so come on ... i 've already booked the flight and the hotel . cane : no . no way . you 're not spending your money on me . you do n't have any more cash than i do . amber : which is why i wasted an entire afternoon listening to a time share speech . you know , i was hoping to win 10 grand , but instead i got the consolation prize -- a vegas vacation . cane : are you serious ? amber : yeah . i mean , if you come with , you 'd be doing me a favor . if not , i 'll be all by my lonesome . cane : see , i know the law and the government is n't gon na let me stay unless the marriage is real , which means , uh ... we 're gon na have to consummate it . amber : i might be persuaded to waive my `` no conjugal rights `` rule . you 'll never know unless you say yes . cane : i bet once the ring is on your finger , you wo n't be able to resist me . amber : i won our last bet . cane : yeah , i do n't wan na be conceited here , but , uh ... i 'm a lot hotter than a text message .

( cell phone ringing ) paul : it 's langley ashby . [ scene_break ] man : this way . victoria : now i can understand why so many people wanted to get their hands on the grugeon . brad : well , maybe if they 'd found it decades ago , my family would 've been spared . victor : at least now it will be in the hands of the czech government , instead of criminals . victoria : hey ... where 's that guy ? victor : where 'd he go ? brad : i do n't have a good feeling about this . victor : hello ? [ scene_break ] jill : yes , hello , mr. ashby . oh , all right , i 'm sorry , langley . uh , no , we have n't met . my mother knew your sister , violet . when she was in the states , years ago . and they lost touch . and we heard that she died . i 'm very sorry for your loss . no , no , no , i know it was many years ago . the reason we 're calling ... it 's about violet 's adopted son . you raised ethan ashby after violet died ? kay : oh , tell him we saw ethan as a newborn . jill : you know , violet introduced us to ethan when he was a baby . he was such a darling child . do i have any information on his biological parents ? why do you ask that ? because ... ethan is in genoa city looking for his birth mother . kay : maybe we 've seen him before . jill : um , if he does n't mind , i would rely love to speak with him . paul : see you can get an address . jill : do you where he 's staying ? well , then do you know where he 's working ? i know most of the night clubs in town and i do n't recognize azure or blue or ... kay : maybe he means indigo ? ! jill : yes ! indigo -- do you mean indigo ? great ! great ! and he goes by his nickname ? cane .

adrian and jt take colleen and kevin to the hospital . a cop wants additional information . michael , gloria and lauren arrive and turn to jt for info . `` kevin tried to kill her again , `` is how he responds to kevin 's family . amber has an idea and suggests that she and cane head to vegas . he warns her that if he puts a ring on her finger , he will be expecting them to consummate . michael has doubts about kevin since he never handled rejection well . gloria will not buy any of this . michael remembers kevin confessed to jana that he tried to kill colleen . he was trying to be honest but maybe he created a problem . that was the moment when jana disappeared . michael feels that kevin was distraught at losing jana and blamed colleen . gloria hates this . she knows that kevin will explain everything . lauren comes to get the mother / son team and tells kevin is awake . they hurry down the hall . jt comes to adrian and tells that colleen is having some kind of problem right now , and he is n't sure that she is going to make it . her machines started blaring and he got kicked out of the room . paul arranges for langley to call katherine and jill and talk to them about philip . the man confirms that ' ethan ashby ' was raised by him and has gone to work in genoa city to find his birth mother . at the hospital , lauren finds that she ca n't really be in kevin 's corner on this jt sees that lauren is having difficulty with this and stays quiet michael finds it unbelievable that will ca n't see that kevin is in trouble here jt and adrian talk . jt got word that colleen is still in trouble . her oxygen levels are falling michael has to talk to kevin soon . will seems to be leaning into the idea that he tried to kill colleen . his story is far to wild to be believed michael sits with kevin and gets the story out again to his brother . he tells how jana had this all planned and tried to kill he and colleen in colleen 's room , she remains unconscious and on the ventilator cane and amber are in vegas and try as he might , she ca n't convince the golden beauty to give up her bounty until the nups have been completed . when he is in the shower , she sees that jill is calling on his phone , but she does n't answer and she does n't let cane know . while sharing alone time , amber says , ' i love you ' , and everything on cane 's body shrivels up . he thought they were just friends and that she was doing a favor for him . she thought that he really liked her and that was the reason for him trying to get in her pants . cane sees that this could turn out to be a problem and so he tells her that he ca n't marry her .

[ katie sighs ] he paid her . mike : who ? katie : pilar . simon paid her to break us up . mike : what ? katie : he was so afraid that i would n't go back to him , that i had fallen too much in love with you , and so he hired pilar to break us up , to make me hate you , or not trust you at least . and it worked . i stopped trusting you and i went back to simon . and then she got even with him . she left me a letter telling me the whole truth , so i confronted simon , and he admitted it , and so i threw him out . mike : why did n't you tell me all this ? katie : i wanted to , mike . i came running into the bar to tell you , but i just -- i could n't . mike : i do n't understand . katie : i 'd just already put you through so much . simon 's dead , no , he 's not . i 'm free , no , i 'm not . i felt like i lost the right to have you back because i had pushed you away so many times . so i pretended like everything was fine and i left . and i was so depressed . i just -- i could n't get started . i just drifted around . and then i saw your picture in a magazine and i missed you . god , i missed you so much . and then margo called and said that craig was missing , so i told myself that i was coming back to help find him , but , now i know i came back because i wanted to see you .

[ scene_break ] mike : i still do n't understand . all right , you find out simon lies to you , so you lie to me ? katie : mike , i wanted to tell you . i ran straight over to the bar to tell you . but you were just so -- i do n't even know the word -- determined , like , you said that you had been thinking about it , and the best thing was for you to move on , like you could n't wait to start this new life and have these new opportunities . mike : what did you expect me to say ? i thought you were leaving town with simon . katie : and i do n't blame you for making the best of it . but i just felt ashamed for getting involved with someone like simon in the first place . i knew who he was . i had just kept telling myself that he could change . and things just got worse , and bad things happen , some of which almost got you killed , so how could i sit there in front of you and admit all the mistakes i had made and how stupid i was . i just -- i do n't know -- i just wanted to leave it the way it was because i felt you were better off without me at that point . mike : that explains why you left . why 'd you come back ? katie : because i could n't live without you . i missed you so much . and then margo told me you were single , so i thought that maybe you were feeling the same way i was , and there was a hole in your heart so big that nobody else could fill , so i came home . mike : yeah , and lied to me . katie : well , i -- when i found out margo was wrong , i -- you had started seeing jennifer , what was i supposed to do , i just -- yeah , i lied , okay ? i did n't want to ruin it for you , so i told you that i was happily married . mike : and today ? katie : i guess we 're just in different places . you 've started to have feelings for someone else . i could n't do that . i do n't want to do it , mike , i want you . i 'm sorry , i was wrong , okay ? i went about this the wrong way . but all i know is that i tried to forget you , but i could n't forget you , and so i 'm here . please , can you forgive me ? please ? mike : it 's not about forgiving you . all right ? it 's can i ever trust you again ? katie : yes . yes , you can . i promise -- mike : that what ? that what ? that you 're not gon na be afraid or ashamed or whatever else is you think is a good reason to lie to me ? all right , it 's worse that -- it 's you manipulated me over and over again . you and henry katie : please , it 's not his fault . mike : no , you 're right . it is your fault . it is your fault for not trusting me . it is your fault for not respecting me . how do you sit there and look at me , and tell me that you love me , and you do n't tell me the truth ? do you have any idea what it did to me , watching you leave with another man ? and then to find out that you did n't have to go , that none of this was necessary ? katie : i did n't know that you felt this way , mike . i thought that after i chose simon that you would n't want me . mike : of course i wanted you ! it broke my heart watching you go . katie : god .

[ scene_break ] mike : that phone call you just got from simon -- that 's pretty extreme , even for him . katie : i know . i think i 'm still in shock . mike : i 'm still in shock . after everything you went through because of him , for him to call up and end the marriage over the phone -- katie : i guess i just never really knew who he was . i think saw what i wanted to see . i made a terrible mistake , choosing him over you . it never should 've happened , mike , you and i were in love . you asked me to marry you , and i said yes , i was so happy . it was gon na be you and me and kids and the whole life . that 's really what i wanted . i guess i just felt guilty -- when simon came back , i felt guilty that i had fallen in love with you , like i was been unfaithful to him or something . mike : you were n't unfaithful , you thought simon was dead . katie : i know , and i tried to make it right , but it was n't gon na work . the marriage was over before it started , we both knew it , i 'm just glad we 're finally admitting it . i just wish i was n't so stupid , and hurting you , and ruin what we had . but we ca n't go back , can we ? i mean -- even though i 'm single , or i 'm gon na be single -- it does n't make a difference , right ? because you 've moved on ? mike : that 's not really true . [ scene_break ] emily : i did n't want will free . i wanted him locked up , because -- because -- barbara : because of daniel . emily : because of daniel , i was afraid he might hurt daniel . barbara : good . good . so what did you do ? emily : i pretended . i came home and when you were asleep and hal -- where was hal ? barbara : i was asleep and hal was at work , and you snuck out and went to rosanna 's . emily : to scare rosanna . barbara : yes . emily : no . barbara : yes , that 's right . you wanted hal to think that will was a threat . emily : so i hung up cabot 's stocking on the fireplace and bought the doll . barbara : yes . show them the receipt . remember where the receipt is , it 's in the drawer ? [ emily sighs ] emily : the receipt 's in the drawer . barbara : and now you 're very , very sorry . emily : and i 'm very , very sorry . but you made me . barbara : no , emily , no , i did n't , you 're a grown woman . you thought of this idea all on your own -- because you wanted hal to realize that will is a threat . but now you realize that you were wrong and you 're very , very sorry . emily : but that 's not true , barbara . barbara : i do n't give a damn about the truth , emily . i only care about will . if you have to be sacrificed , so be it . [ scene_break ] will : it 's not that i do n't want to tell you . look , alison , it 's just easier if i keep you clear of all this , okay ? it 's enough that you 're willing to still help me . you are still helping me , right ? alison : yeah , of course . only , i 'm supposed to be someplace . look , i 'm gon na go do what i have to do and i 'll meet you back here in about 20 minutes , okay ? will : thank you so much . alison : do n't worry about it . if you do n't want to tell me -- and i get that , i 'm not the world 's most reliable witness -- but call somebody . it 's obviously bothering you . will : no , you 're right . and i 'd love to talk to someone . but that 's just the thing -- there is n't anybody . alison : do n't be so sure . you forgave me , right ? i 'm sure that there 's somebody in your family you can trust . and aaron and i will help you out the best we can . but your dad is the chief of detectives . there 's a lot of people looking for you . if you can get someone on your side , the time is now .

[ scene_break ] henry : it 's new . my phone . i have a thing about germs . jennifer : you have crossed the line , henry , and i do n't like it . henry : what line have i allegedly crossed ? jennifer : it is so obvious that you are trying to keep me here so that i wo n't go over to katie 's and interrupt her and mike . henry : mike 's at katie 's ? i thought he was at work . jennifer : so did i . but you knew where he was , henry , and let 's not pretend like you did n't . you were obviously campaigning a reconciliation despite the fact that katie is married and mike and i are happy . so i 'm wondering why , henry ? why are you causing trouble ? suzanne : because he 's a devious little deadbeat , that 's why . henry : suzanne ! my little lucky charm ! suzanne : yeah . you stuck me with the hotel tab . henry : did i do that ? i 'm sorry , jennifer , i have to give this lovely young lady carfare . suzanne : 1,000 bucks , hotshot , and not a penny less . henry : 1,000 ? i did n't realize we had that much fun together . let me consult my financial advisor over here . barkeep ? she needs to have a conversation with mr. johnnie walker , all right ? [ scene_break ] mike : i 'd be lying if i told you that it did n't hurt , watching you leave with simon . you know , for weeks , i crossed my fingers every time the phone rang , just hoping it was you , but -- you never called . i got used to the idea that life was different . that you ca n't always have what you want . so i went to work , i hung out with henry . and after awhile -- katie , a lot has happened since you left . katie : i know , a lot has happened for me , too . like i said , things did n't work out the way i expected . but i thought that i just had to live with it and accept it . but i could n't stop thinking about you . and coming back , it just -- brought it all back . mike : all these months , katie , i thought you were happy , i thought you were in love with simon . you know , i did n't like it . i was jealous . i missed you . but i trained myself to accept the truth . and now , to find out now that it 's not true , that maybe it never was ? [ katie sighs ] the trouble is , you 're right . i have moved on . i 've been spending time with jennifer , you know , i told her how much i care about her . she trusts me . katie : i know , but mike -- all i know is that i made this terrible mistake because i felt responsible for someone else 's happiness . like , i could n't go after what i wanted because of a commitment . like it was wrong to hurt him . but i ended up hurting everybody because -- the truth is , i just should 've stayed with you . mike : i got ta -- i should go -- katie : no , no , no , wait , mike , please do n't leave , please do n't . mike : there 's other people involved . it 's not just us anymore . katie : i 'm sorry , i just -- i guess i 'm a little shaken up still from that phone call . will you stay with me , please , until henry gets home ? mike : you want me to call him ? katie : no , no , he 'll be home soon , i 'm sure . please . [ cell phone rings ] you get that . i 'll get us something to take the chill off . mike : all right . yeah . jennifer : mike ? mike : listen , i 'm sorry about cutting you off before . jennifer : it 's okay . i was just wondering , are you okay ? mike : why ? jennifer : i just had the strangest encounter with henry . mike : you 're with henry ? jennifer : i was . he called me and asked me if he could talk about some job at street jeans . mike : henry ? jennifer : yeah , that 's what i thought . but he 's supposed to be our friend , so i was being polite . and then the conversation got so ridiculous , i said i had to go , but he would n't let me leave . mike , i had the distinct impression he was trying to keep me from coming over to katie 's . and then he snuck off and some cryptic phone call . mike : he made a phone call ? when ? jennifer : just a little while ago . and i got sick of waiting so i decided to go over and tell him i had to go and he practically jumped out of his skin . i think he was afraid that i overheard something . mike : where are you now ? jennifer : i 'm at the lakeview . mike : all right , i 'll be there as soon as i can . katie : i know you 'd probably rather have hot chocolate , but this all i have . is everything okay ? mike : i 'm not sure . katie : well , you want to talk about it ? mike : yeah , katie , let 's talk .

aiden : you again . yeah , me . aiden : i was expecting to see -- he sent me instead . he 's bored with reminding you that your loans are past due . so he wants me to remind you in a whole new way . unless you got the cash on you right now . will : no , i have n't heard from sonny since he left . i miss him so much . marlena : of course you do . i imagine she does , too . will : you know what makes it hurt even more , is knowing that i did this . i made this happen . if it had n't been for me , sonny , arianna , and i we 'd still be a happy family . marlena : you know , if you want to talk about this , i am always available to you . will : thank you . but i know you have a lot to deal with right now , too . poor uncle eric . i ca n't believe his old girlfriend was murdered . marlena : and paige larson . will : chad , i mean , the cops are thinking he 's the killer , right ? i mean , i know the guy 's got problems , but to murder two people ? how is that even possible ? hope : until we get the forensics report back on the neckties , we 've got the napkin near serena 's body with chad 's blood on it , the key to the dimera gate that we found in the park -- rafe : yeah , but chad says he dropped the key . anyone could have picked it up . hope : right , but the petal near paige 's body is from a flower that only grows locally in stefano dimera 's garden . rafe : mm - hmm . hope : and also , there 's paige 's statement that she saw chad follow serena out of the club , and let 's not forget about the scene that you witnessed between chad and paige right before paige was murdered . rafe : yeah , exactly . all of which gets us nowhere . hope : [ sighs ] you said that it looked like he was furious at her for talking to you . rafe : yes , i did . but if i had to testify , i would be forced to say that i did not hear a damn word that they were saying , nothing . hope : you realize justin is biting at the bit to charge him with two counts of murder one . rafe : yeah , believe me , i know . but what aiden said is true , all of this evidence that we have , it is all circumstantial , hope . hope : rafe , there 's the fact that he ca n't account for his whereabouts at the time of either murder . two blackouts in two nights ? odd , do n't you think ? rafe : yeah , especially considering the fact i could n't find any history of alcohol abuse . hope : you think it 's possible he could be lying about the blackouts ? rafe : or he 's being set up . hope : you know , from the very beginning , your gut 's been telling you that we ca n't pin this on chad just yet . rafe : yeah , because i think that there 's more here . there has to be . abigail : will you do it ? will you please let marlena hypnotize you ? chad : abby , all of the evidence is pointing to me . if anyone sees me walking into marlena 's office , it 's gon na look like i know i 'm guilty and that i am trying to get her to say that i was nuts during the time of the murders . abigail : chad , chad , i know the hospital layout backward and forward . i can get you in without anybody seeing you . chad : you know , you -- you 'd do that for me ? abigail : i would . yeah . chad : okay , before you say anything else , i have to tell you something and -- and it 's a game changer . steve : hey . kayla : hello . steve : so why 'd you want to see me ? i mean , i thought you said everything you needed to say when hope and i were in your office . kayla : and then joey came by and said he saw you today . steve : is that all he said ? kayla : no . it sounded like you had a decent talk . steve : decent . okay , i 'll take that , given the last couple of days . kayla : you know , i just -- i just want to ask you something . you come back , you start to make a little progress with your son , but all you really want to do is leave town for god knows how long and go hunting for bo . steve : listen , i have been talking to john about this . he 's been looking into it , because he 's back with the isa . kayla : and ? steve : john ca n't find anything on bo . it 's as if he never worked for the agency . now , either than means that bo is so deep undercover and they 're trying to protect him or they really do n't have any idea where he is or what happened to him . john hopes that does n't mean that bo is in real trouble and the isa is trying to cover it up . now , do you want me to just ignore that ? kayla : i do n't know what to say . steve : kayla , you know i came back here because i wanted to see if there 's still a chance for us . i 've been thinking , if i can bring your brother back and show you that i 'm not just looking for a reason to run away , you might be willing to give me another chance . rafe : what i 'd like to do is take everything we 've got and try and put a profile of the killer together -- age , social standing , mental state , everything that we 've got . hope : you know , marlena 's good at psychological profiling . she 's done it for us so many times . rafe : exactly who i had in mind . hope : good idea , actually , pretty great . rafe : well , thank you , ma'am . hope : i 've missed working with you , you know . rafe : you , too . whoa , got a feeling those are n't for me . jerry : no , these are for you , detective brady . hope : well , wow . rafe : well , wow , is right . hope : thank you , jerry . rafe : did n't he send you flowers yesterday ? hope : yeah , but things have changed since yesterday . rafe : oh , yeah , like what ? rafe : `` thank you for making me the happiest husband - to - be in the world . `` huh . chad : if i let marlena hypnotize me , then , yeah , i could find out what i was doing when -- when serena and paige were murdered , but i could also remember doing it . abigail : that -- that 's not gon na happen , chad . chad : and there could be a third possibility . all of the evidence is pointing to me because i 'm being set up . abigail : who would do that ? chad : my father . abigail : why would he do that to you ? chad : to punish me for telling you about him wanting to swindle you out of the inheritance . abigail : chad , i think that 's a little over the top , even for stefano . chad : no . abigail : what did he do after you said that to him ? chad : he grabbed his chest and fell over . that 's why i did n't respond to you when you asked me how i was doing after his heart attack . i might have caused it . so that being said , all of this could be much worse than you thought , and it could be really dangerous if you help me out . abigail : if your father did this , then you can not run away . chad , you have to fight back . you have to prove that you did n't do this . now , are you gon na let me get you in to see marlena or not ? will : chad has been different since he came back . marlena : hmm . different how ? will : more of a dimera , or at least acting like one . but he 's not a killer . he did n't even know serena or paige . the cops are saying he just flipped out and killed them both for no reason ? marlena : there seems to be some incriminating evidence . what do you think caused the change in chad ? will : it 's not what , it 's who . abigail . he loves her . but he keeps saying that he 's over her . i know he 's not . just like i could never be over sonny . marlena : i thought she was involved with ben . i mean , i thought they were engaged . will : trust me , there is still something between chad and abigail . marlena : how do you know ? will : i ca n't talk about it . marlena : i see . okay . will : if chad is mixed up in this mess , i hope abigail is smart enough to steer clear of him . marlena : i think abigail is smart enough to do the right thing . i think we should trust her . and i think you should trust sonny . just give him some time . will : what am i supposed to do with myself while i give him some time ? marlena : well , spend time with your sweet baby girl . and you could start to work again . will : i do n't even want to think about journalism . marlena : will , you 're a wonderful writer . you have so much bottled up inside of you . just pick something that you 're passionate about , something that interests you , and start to write . i think the words will just flow out of you . rafe : i guess that 's the big surprise that aiden was talking about , he was gon na give you . it 's great . hope : yeah , i took some time to think about it , and i said yes . told the kids about it today . they were over the moon . rafe : wow . congratulations . it 's -- the guy 's burning through his flower budget , though . hope : yeah , probably . rafe : yeah . hope : we 're happy . rafe : well , then i 'm happy for you . i mean , wow . hope : thank you . rafe : yeah . yeah . kayla : oh , i 'm sorry . am i interrupting anything ? rafe : no , no . hope : kay . rafe : no , no , no , no . it 's okay . i 'm gon na start working on that thing we were just talking about . hope : great . rafe : yeah , all right . hope : what brings you by ? kayla : i had a deposition i had to do , and i thought i should come talk to you . aiden ? hope : yeah . kayla : wow . hope : yeah . kayla : so why were you hugging rafe ? hope : he was -- he was congratulating me . kayla : mm - hmm . hope : i have some news , and we did n't want to say anything to anyone else until we told the kids , but ... kayla : oh . aiden : i 'm gon na have the money . i just need a little bit more time and then -- time is something you ran out of . aiden : see , here 's the thing . the guy who owes me money is in the hospital . once he gets out , he 's gon na pay me back , and then when he pays me back , i can pay your boss back with interest . so it 's -- it 's gon na -- that 's a good plan . aiden : yeah . oh , congratulations on the engagement . aiden : yeah . ben : it 's no big deal . [ cell phone rings ] abigail : this is abigail . ben : hey , i was wonder -- ben : voice mail . [ telephone rings ] marlena : dr. evans . abigail : hi , marlena . this is abigail . marlena : hi , sweetie , i did n't expect to hear from you . abigail : are you alone ? and do you have some time ? marlena : yes to both . abigail : do you have any patients waiting ? marlena : no , i 'm free until this afternoon . [ cell phone disconnects ] marlena : abigail ? stefano : you got what you came for , all right , the chance to laugh at me . [ laughs ] now , get the hell out . victor : that 's not why i came , stefano . although , i must say , seeing you here like this does add a nice touch to the occasion . stefano : then why are you here ? victor : well , it seems there 's a murderer running around town . every time that happens , the cops come sniffing around me . and it does n't help me to have this investigation go on too long . i mean , if they keep digging -- stefano : i get it , all right . i get it . but what i do not get is why the hell should i give a damn ? victor : well , it seems that your baby boy , chad , is the chief suspect . in fact , my nephew , justin , is the da and he likes him for both murders . you do n't seem to be upset to hear that . interesting . 'cause i 've been thinking it may be best for all concerned if you just stayed in the hospital , looked after your health , and let the authorities pick chad up soon as possible . i mean , hell , what 's he ever done for you ? [ knock on door ] marlena : come in . abigail : good , you 're still alone . marlena : will the two of you please explain to me what 's going on here ? stefano : i appreciate your candor , victor . victor : mm - hmm . stefano : i 'll think about it . victor : well , that 's all i can ask . stefano : now , you 've opened the door about family . well , now it 's my turn to speak my mind , eh ? victor : only fair . stefano : that 's quite a situation that you got going there , at your house , i mean . two women to satisfy . [ chuckles ] i hope you 're up to it . victor : you listen to me , malaka . if you think i 'm going to say a word to you about caroline or maggie , think again . they 're none of your damn business . stefano : oh , i think they are . bo : hope . hope , i 'm home . hope ! hope , let me -- fancy face , i 'm right here . hope , open the door . open the door , hope ! kayla : wow . hope : you look upset . are you upset ? kayla : no . you know that i am so happy for you and aiden . and when you told me that he proposed , i did not discourage you from accepting . and when you said that you had doubts , i supported your decision to take time to decide . hope : then what am i sensing ? does it change how you feel now that 's i 've accepted his proposal that we 're engaged ? kayla : no , i just -- it just occurred to me that if you marry aiden , will you not be my sister - in - law anymore ? hope : no . you will always be my sister . i love you . you 're not getting rid of me that fast , no matter what . kayla : okay , then . okay , then nothing 's changed . hope : nothing 's changed . kayla : i am so happy for you guys . i wish you all the happiness in the world . hope : oh , kay , thank you . it means so much to me . you said that you -- you saw steve again . kayla : yeah . yeah , it was just -- it was just more of the same . hope : he still wants to look for bo ? kayla : i thought i should tell you . hope : yeah . kayla : 'cause i know it 's not easy for you . hope : no , it just -- you know , when he started talking about it earlier today , i know how angry and defensive i must have sounded , and i hope to god that you do n't think that i do n't want bo to be found . kayla : i would never think that . hope : i really wish that steve could find bo and convince him to come back for his children , for you , for your mom . you know what else i wish . that i could tell him face - to - face that it 's over between us . there 's someone i can count on now . that 's what i wish . kayla : must feel good . hope : aiden 's woken me up . he made me see that the sun still shines , kay . hope : i do n't know how i got so lucky . you 'll need to come back in about a week for another x - ray to make sure the fracture fragments have n't moved . aiden : got it . i 'm going on break . will you look in on mr. dimera ? i just gave him pain medicine . he should be out cold pretty soon . aiden : hey , wake up . stefano : [ groans ] [ sighs ] is there no rest for the weary ? aiden : do n't you get it ? my back is up against the wall . if i have to deal with that goon again , i may end up with no fingers . stefano : well , is it my fault that you like to gamble , huh ? or that you blew your dead wife 's inheritance ? aiden : do n't you talk about my wife . aiden : [ sighs ] will you give mr . rumor his meds after you check on mr. dimera ? mr. dimera . just making sure you 're not having any pain . chad : all i know is i woke up hung - over with an empty bottle beside me . then i found out she 'd been killed . marlena : so you were dead drunk when the murders happened ? chad : yes , i know -- i know how all of that sounds . but the evidence they say they have , my lawyer says it 's all circumstantial . yet the cops keep coming after me . in fact , on the way over here , there was an unmarked car following us . marlena : and you think that was the police . chad : yeah , or -- or the person who 's setting me up . marlena : excuse me . chad : look , i told abigail that i think it 's very possible that i 'm being framed . marlena : so you think ? it sounds like you 're not even sure whether you 're innocent or not . hope : after you told me that you saw steve , you seemed to want to get off the subject rather quickly . kayla : well , telling myself that i loath him and i 'm glad that he 's not in my life is a lot easier when he 's not around . but i do n't know . when he 's in the room , i - i -- hope : yeah . you 're still attracted to him . kayla : well , i do n't know if it 's just , like , an old habit or something or -- or if it 's more than that , but i am gon na do my best to fight it . that 's all i can tell you . hope : he wants you back , does n't he ? kayla : oh , he says that now . i mean -- hope : kay , we both had men in our lives that have greatly disappointed us . kayla : and they 're larger than life . hope : i need to look ahead , instead of remembering the past . kayla : you seem like you 're managing that . hope : that 's what i 'm determined to do . mr. dimera ? samantha , there 's something i forgot to tell you . aiden : you wo n't be needing these for a while . mind if i take 'em ? i did n't think so . marlena : so you 're hoping that under hypnosis you might remember enough to give yourself an alibi . chad : yeah . abigail : please help him , marlena . chad : and if i say anything while i 'm under that you need to tell the cops , then -- then you -- you have my permission to do that . marlena : okay . chad : okay . abigail : thank you . marlena : now , you need to know that there are no guarantees with hypnosis , and whatever is discussed will be between chad and me . so you 'll have to go . abigail : right . yeah , okay . okay . good luck . chad : okay , so what happens now ? you -- a little hocus pocus ? you -- you wave a pocket watch in front of me or something like that ? marlena : that 's exactly right . kidding . chad : oh , okay . marlena : that only happens in old movies . what i want you to do is try to relax . [ knock on door ] rafe : marlena , it 's rafe hernandez . do you have a few minutes ? abigail : oh , god , ben 's been calling me . i better get over to the club right away . will : abigail , hey . abigail : hi , will . hey , hi , honey . hey , i 'm so sorry . i have to be somewhere . will : we just wanted to see how you were doing , that 's all . abigail : i 'm fine . why would n't i be ? will : well , because of everything that 's happening with chad , for one . abigail : that 's chad 's problem . will : did n't you know paige pretty well ? abigail : yeah , and i knew serena , too . it 's horrible . jj , i do n't know how jj is ever gon na get over this . will : have you talked to chad ? abigail : will , i wish i could stay and talk , but i have to go . if i 'm late , then ben 's gon na -- you know , he 's gon na worry , and so , um , see ya . [ cell phone ringing ] rafe : hey . marlena : hi , rafe . good to see you . what are you doing here ? rafe : you got a minute ? i 've got an idea i 'd like to run past you . it 's regarding the murders of serena mason and paige larson . marlena : uh ... sure , uh ... come on in . rafe : i was just wondering if you could take a look at what we 've come up with so far and tell us whether you think we 're looking at one murderer or two , and hopefully , set up some sort of a psychological profile . marlena : i 'm not sure that 's a very good idea . rafe : but you 've worked with the department before . may i ask why it 's a problem now ? is there some sort of conflict ? marlena : no , no . i 'm just -- i 'm busy , that 's all . i 'm -- i 'm pretty busy . rafe : oh , busy . marlena : look , if you need my help , of course i will make time . rafe : thank you . i 'm sure that you know that chad dimera is a person of interest in both the murders . so as you look at this , i would hope that that not cloud your judgment . marlena : sounds like you think he might be innocent . rafe : well , i have n't made up my mind yet , but he 's a dimera , so inherently there is prejudice against him . marlena : and the da is a kiriakis . rafe : there you go . marlena : any other reservations ? rafe : well , just that it 's all coming together a little too neatly , if you know what i mean . marlena : mm - hmm . well , i will see what i can do . rafe : okay , great . there 's not much to go by . there are no eyewitnesses , so do your best . marlena : all righty . i 'll need a little time . rafe : okay . i 'll be in touch . marlena : hmm .

[ cell phone rings ] aiden : sorry . aiden jennings . yes , i 'm with him right now . marlena : i did not tell rafe you were here because you are a patient of mine , and whatever we say is confidential . and i feel no obligation . chad : well , i 'm sorry . i - i just tend to -- to shoot my mouth off when i get a little -- marlena : little scared ? you must have heard rafe say that he 's not convinced you killed those women . chad : no , i did , and that 's a relief . you know , i do n't have a lot of people in my corner right now , so -- marlena : you have abby in your corner . chad : she 's an angel . all right , well , shall we get started ? marlena : yes , if you 're ready , please . chad : i 'm ready . all right , i better be . my entire life is on the line .

abigail : i would . yeah . chad : okay , before you say anything else , i have to tell you something and -- and it 's a game changer . steve : hey . kayla : hello . steve : so why 'd you want to see me ? i mean , i thought you said everything you needed to say when hope and i were in your office . kayla : and then joey came by and said he saw you today . steve : is that all he said ? kayla : no . it sounded like you had a decent talk . steve : decent . okay , i 'll take that , given the last couple of days . kayla : you know , i just -- i just want to ask you something . you come back , you start to make a little progress with your son , but all you really want to do is leave town for god knows how long and go hunting for bo . steve : listen , i have been talking to john about this . he 's been looking into it , because he 's back with the isa . kayla : and ? steve : john ca n't find anything on bo . it 's as if he never worked for the agency . now , either than means that bo is so deep undercover and they 're trying to protect him or they really do n't have any idea where he is or what happened to him . john hopes that does n't mean that bo is in real trouble and the isa is trying to cover it up . now , do you want me to just ignore that ? kayla : i do n't know what to say . steve : kayla , you know i came back here because i wanted to see if there 's still a chance for us . i 've been thinking , if i can bring your brother back and show you that i 'm not just looking for a reason to run away , you might be willing to give me another chance . rafe : what i 'd like to do is take everything we 've got and try and put a profile of the killer together -- age , social standing , mental state , everything that we 've got . hope : you know , marlena 's good at psychological profiling . she 's done it for us so many times . rafe : exactly who i had in mind . hope : good idea , actually , pretty great . rafe : well , thank you , ma'am . hope : i 've missed working with you , you know . rafe : you , too . whoa , got a feeling those are n't for me . jerry : no , these are for you , detective brady . hope : well , wow . rafe : well , wow , is right . hope : thank you , jerry . rafe : did n't he send you flowers yesterday ? hope : yeah , but things have changed since yesterday . rafe : oh , yeah , like what ? rafe : `` thank you for making me the happiest husband - to - be in the world . `` huh . chad : if i let marlena hypnotize me , then , yeah , i could find out what i was doing when -- when serena and paige were murdered , but i could also remember doing it . abigail : that -- that 's not gon na happen , chad . chad : and there could be a third possibility . all of the evidence is pointing to me because i 'm being set up . abigail : who would do that ? chad : my father . abigail : why would he do that to you ? chad : to punish me for telling you about him wanting to swindle you out of the inheritance . abigail : chad , i think that 's a little over the top , even for stefano . chad : no . abigail : what did he do after you said that to him ? chad : he grabbed his chest and fell over . that 's why i did n't respond to you when you asked me how i was doing after his heart attack . i might have caused it . so that being said , all of this could be much worse than you thought , and it could be really dangerous if you help me out . abigail : if your father did this , then you can not run away . chad , you have to fight back . you have to prove that you did n't do this . now , are you gon na let me get you in to see marlena or not ? will : chad has been different since he came back . marlena : hmm . different how ? will : more of a dimera , or at least acting like one . but he 's not a killer . he did n't even know serena or paige . the cops are saying he just flipped out and killed them both for no reason ? marlena : there seems to be some incriminating evidence . what do you think caused the change in chad ? will : it 's not what , it 's who . abigail . he loves her . but he keeps saying that he 's over her . i know he 's not . just like i could never be over sonny . marlena : i thought she was involved with ben . i mean , i thought they were engaged . will : trust me , there is still something between chad and abigail . marlena : how do you know ? will : i ca n't talk about it . marlena : i see . okay . will : if chad is mixed up in this mess , i hope abigail is smart enough to steer clear of him . marlena : i think abigail is smart enough to do the right thing . i think we should trust her . and i think you should trust sonny . just give him some time . will : what am i supposed to do with myself while i give him some time ? marlena : well , spend time with your sweet baby girl . and you could start to work again . will : i do n't even want to think about journalism . marlena : will , you 're a wonderful writer . you have so much bottled up inside of you . just pick something that you 're passionate about , something that interests you , and start to write . i think the words will just flow out of you . rafe : i guess that 's the big surprise that aiden was talking about , he was gon na give you . it 's great . hope : yeah , i took some time to think about it , and i said yes . told the kids about it today . they were over the moon . rafe : wow . congratulations . it 's -- the guy 's burning through his flower budget , though . hope : yeah , probably . rafe : yeah . hope : we 're happy . rafe : well , then i 'm happy for you . i mean , wow . hope : thank you . rafe : yeah . yeah . kayla : oh , i 'm sorry . am i interrupting anything ? rafe : no , no . hope : kay . rafe : no , no , no , no . it 's okay . i 'm gon na start working on that thing we were just talking about . hope : great . rafe : yeah , all right . hope : what brings you by ? kayla : i had a deposition i had to do , and i thought i should come talk to you . aiden ? hope : yeah . kayla : wow . hope : yeah . kayla : so why were you hugging rafe ? hope : he was -- he was congratulating me . kayla : mm - hmm . hope : i have some news , and we did n't want to say anything to anyone else until we told the kids , but ... kayla : oh . aiden : i 'm gon na have the money . i just need a little bit more time and then -- time is something you ran out of . aiden : see , here 's the thing . the guy who owes me money is in the hospital . once he gets out , he 's gon na pay me back , and then when he pays me back , i can pay your boss back with interest . so it 's -- it 's gon na -- that 's a good plan . aiden : yeah . oh , congratulations on the engagement . aiden : yeah . ben : it 's no big deal . [ cell phone rings ] abigail : this is abigail . ben : hey , i was wonder -- ben : voice mail .

[ laughs ] now , get the hell out . victor : that 's not why i came , stefano . although , i must say , seeing you here like this does add a nice touch to the occasion . stefano : then why are you here ? victor : well , it seems there 's a murderer running around town . every time that happens , the cops come sniffing around me . and it does n't help me to have this investigation go on too long . i mean , if they keep digging -- stefano : i get it , all right . i get it . but what i do not get is why the hell should i give a damn ? victor : well , it seems that your baby boy , chad , is the chief suspect . in fact , my nephew , justin , is the da and he likes him for both murders . you do n't seem to be upset to hear that . interesting . 'cause i 've been thinking it may be best for all concerned if you just stayed in the hospital , looked after your health , and let the authorities pick chad up soon as possible . i mean , hell , what 's he ever done for you ? [ knock on door ] marlena : come in . abigail : good , you 're still alone . marlena : will the two of you please explain to me what 's going on here ? stefano : i appreciate your candor , victor . victor : mm - hmm . stefano : i 'll think about it . victor : well , that 's all i can ask . stefano : now , you 've opened the door about family . well , now it 's my turn to speak my mind , eh ? victor : only fair . stefano : that 's quite a situation that you got going there , at your house , i mean . two women to satisfy . [ chuckles ] i hope you 're up to it . victor : you listen to me , malaka . if you think i 'm going to say a word to you about caroline or maggie , think again . they 're none of your damn business . stefano : oh , i think they are . bo : hope . hope , i 'm home . hope ! hope , let me -- fancy face , i 'm right here . hope , open the door . open the door , hope ! kayla : wow . hope : you look upset . are you upset ? kayla : no . you know that i am so happy for you and aiden . and when you told me that he proposed , i did not discourage you from accepting . and when you said that you had doubts , i supported your decision to take time to decide . hope : then what am i sensing ? does it change how you feel now that 's i 've accepted his proposal that we 're engaged ? kayla : no , i just -- it just occurred to me that if you marry aiden , will you not be my sister - in - law anymore ? hope : no . you will always be my sister . i love you . you 're not getting rid of me that fast , no matter what . kayla : okay , then . okay , then nothing 's changed . hope : nothing 's changed . kayla : i am so happy for you guys . i wish you all the happiness in the world . hope : oh , kay , thank you . it means so much to me . you said that you -- you saw steve again . kayla : yeah . yeah , it was just -- it was just more of the same . hope : he still wants to look for bo ? kayla : i thought i should tell you . hope : yeah . kayla : 'cause i know it 's not easy for you . hope : no , it just -- you know , when he started talking about it earlier today , i know how angry and defensive i must have sounded , and i hope to god that you do n't think that i do n't want bo to be found . kayla : i would never think that . hope : i really wish that steve could find bo and convince him to come back for his children , for you , for your mom . you know what else i wish . that i could tell him face - to - face that it 's over between us . there 's someone i can count on now . that 's what i wish . kayla : must feel good . hope : aiden 's woken me up . he made me see that the sun still shines , kay . hope : i do n't know how i got so lucky . you 'll need to come back in about a week for another x - ray to make sure the fracture fragments have n't moved . aiden : got it . i 'm going on break . will you look in on mr. dimera ? i just gave him pain medicine . he should be out cold pretty soon . aiden : hey , wake up . stefano : [ groans ] [ sighs ] is there no rest for the weary ? aiden : do n't you get it ? my back is up against the wall . if i have to deal with that goon again , i may end up with no fingers . stefano : well , is it my fault that you like to gamble , huh ? or that you blew your dead wife 's inheritance ? aiden : do n't you talk about my wife . aiden : [ sighs ] will you give mr . rumor his meds after you check on mr. dimera ? mr. dimera . just making sure you 're not having any pain . chad : all i know is i woke up hung - over with an empty bottle beside me . then i found out she 'd been killed . marlena : so you were dead drunk when the murders happened ? chad : yes , i know -- i know how all of that sounds . but the evidence they say they have , my lawyer says it 's all circumstantial . yet the cops keep coming after me . in fact , on the way over here , there was an unmarked car following us . marlena : and you think that was the police . chad : yeah , or -- or the person who 's setting me up . marlena : excuse me . chad : look , i told abigail that i think it 's very possible that i 'm being framed . marlena : so you think ? it sounds like you 're not even sure whether you 're innocent or not . hope : after you told me that you saw steve , you seemed to want to get off the subject rather quickly . kayla : well , telling myself that i loath him and i 'm glad that he 's not in my life is a lot easier when he 's not around . but i do n't know . when he 's in the room , i - i -- hope : yeah . you 're still attracted to him . kayla : well , i do n't know if it 's just , like , an old habit or something or -- or if it 's more than that , but i am gon na do my best to fight it . that 's all i can tell you . hope : he wants you back , does n't he ? kayla : oh , he says that now . i mean -- hope : kay , we both had men in our lives that have greatly disappointed us . kayla : and they 're larger than life . hope : i need to look ahead , instead of remembering the past . kayla : you seem like you 're managing that . hope : that 's what i 'm determined to do . mr. dimera ? samantha , there 's something i forgot to tell you . aiden : you wo n't be needing these for a while . mind if i take 'em ? i did n't think so . marlena : so you 're hoping that under hypnosis you might remember enough to give yourself an alibi . chad : yeah . abigail : please help him , marlena . chad : and if i say anything while i 'm under that you need to tell the cops , then -- then you -- you have my permission to do that . marlena : okay . chad : okay . abigail : thank you . marlena : now , you need to know that there are no guarantees with hypnosis , and whatever is discussed will be between chad and me . so you 'll have to go . abigail : right . yeah , okay . okay . good luck . chad : okay , so what happens now ? you -- a little hocus pocus ? you -- you wave a pocket watch in front of me or something like that ? marlena : that 's exactly right . kidding . chad : oh , okay . marlena : that only happens in old movies . what i want you to do is try to relax .

[ cell phone ringing ] rafe : hey . marlena : hi , rafe . good to see you . what are you doing here ? rafe : you got a minute ? i 've got an idea i 'd like to run past you . it 's regarding the murders of serena mason and paige larson . marlena : uh ... sure , uh ... come on in . rafe : i was just wondering if you could take a look at what we 've come up with so far and tell us whether you think we 're looking at one murderer or two , and hopefully , set up some sort of a psychological profile . marlena : i 'm not sure that 's a very good idea . rafe : but you 've worked with the department before . may i ask why it 's a problem now ? is there some sort of conflict ? marlena : no , no . i 'm just -- i 'm busy , that 's all . i 'm -- i 'm pretty busy . rafe : oh , busy . marlena : look , if you need my help , of course i will make time . rafe : thank you . i 'm sure that you know that chad dimera is a person of interest in both the murders . so as you look at this , i would hope that that not cloud your judgment . marlena : sounds like you think he might be innocent . rafe : well , i have n't made up my mind yet , but he 's a dimera , so inherently there is prejudice against him . marlena : and the da is a kiriakis . rafe : there you go . marlena : any other reservations ? rafe : well , just that it 's all coming together a little too neatly , if you know what i mean . marlena : mm - hmm . well , i will see what i can do . rafe : okay , great . there 's not much to go by . there are no eyewitnesses , so do your best . marlena : all righty . i 'll need a little time . rafe : okay . i 'll be in touch . marlena : hmm .

courtney : oh -- my god . no , jason has n't even said a word about marriage , ok ? carly : well , that 's because jason does n't think about this stuff . it does n't enter his mind , but i promise you , he will say yes when you propose . courtney : carly , you 're not listening to me . i am not proposing . carly : why ? are you against marriage now ? courtney : no , of course not . carly : well , then are you opposed to marrying jason ? courtney : no , but just not right -- carly : well , what 's the problem ? do you not see yourself loving him every single day for the rest of your lives , every day together ?

hope : i used to be pretty good when i was on the force , remember ? i 'm just trying to polish up my skills . do n't try and mess with me . do n't even think about it ! [ grunting ] bo : whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . hope : [ grunting ] bo : hey , hey , this is not the way to get rid of larry . bo : you ca n't get rid of him by taking a class or putting on the gloves . look , i , um , picked up this prescription that marlena wrote out for you , if you want to try the medication , but i personally think that therapy 's the only way you 're going to get rid of those demons . hope : `` take as needed for anxiety . not to exceed more than four tablets daily . `` bo : hey . i love you . i 'm going to be with you every step of the way ... helping you fight those fears . look , larry 's dead . he 's nothing but a ghost . larry : you know what your problem is , detective brady ? you 're just too damn aggressive . pushy . rummaging through garbage , taking things that are n't meant for you . i should have known , i should have known , i should have known you would grab that bloody towel before hope could find it . why the hell did i expect things to go smoothly with you around screwing things up ? maybe , on the otr r hand ... you know , this just might work in my favor . maybe it 'll plant a seed in that tiny little brain of yours , convince you that your perfect little wife just might be a cold - blooded killer . romanststop . you do not start in . do not make snide remarks about me and kate or me and anybody else , for that matter . i wo n't stand for it . sami : talk about overreacting . roman : get back to work . sami : dad , all right , i 'm sorry , okay ? look , i - i know that i 'm annoying sometimes and that i can be a brat sometimes . roman : sometimes ? sami : i 'm sorry , okay ? i just -- i just worry about you getting hurt . roman : well , don't . sami : look , she is all wrong for you , dad ! roman : i 'll be the judge of that . sami : you 're depressed about something . roman : i am fine . sami : what has she done to you ? roman : will you just stop ? sami : i keep telling you she does n't really care about you . she does n't have it in her to care about anyone . roman : sami , that 's enough ! sami : her and her dirty little secrets . roman : what ? what do you know about kate 's secrets ? sami : nothing . she 's just always acting like she 's hiding soththing . roman : be specific . sami : that does n't matter . the point is , i know that she is not the right woman for you . roman : you do not know that ! let me go out on a big limb here and say you do n't know squat about who 's right for me , you , or anybody else , so for you to even have an opinion about who i should or should n't be dating ... sami : oh , dad , you 're -- you 're being so mean . roman : what , you can hand out criticism , be judgmental , but you ca n't take it yourself ? sami : i 'm not upset about that . it just -- i had a fight with brandon earlier and that 's why i 'm upset , and i 'm just taking it out on you . dad , my love life is falling apart . dad ... roman : hey , come here . come here , come here . sami : why ca n't anything ever work out for me ? roman : look , it 's not just you , all right ? it 's just the way things are . look , just because you love somebody does n't guarantee you a happy ending . sami : i do n't want to be alone . roman : neither do i . sami : you know what ? i 'm going to fix it . i am going to make it better . i 'll make up with brandon . i 'll cook him a nice dinner and put on some sexy music -- roman : hey , i get the idea , all right ? sami : i 'm sorry , daddy . look , we 've had fights before and i have managed to fix it , and i 'm just going to fix this one , too . roman : well , you are determined , i 'll give you that . sami : and now i had better get back to work before brenda has me fired . roman : all right , go . sami : thanks , dad . oh , um , i wanted to ask you about colin 's murder . do you have any leads or suspects or anything ? brandon : that 's none of your business . sami : brandon . brandon : i do n't want you shooting your mouth off about colin 's murder , you understand ? just lay off it . kate : now , why would i want one of salem 's few witty men to die ? witty and handsome -- the daily double . tony : yes . ha ha ha . well , i 'm quite useful when it comes to making captain brady jealous . well , is n't that what was going on the night we were together ? ke : e : no . no , not at all . actually , i was very grateful to you that night in tuscany . you saved me from a very boring dinner . although , of course , if you find reliving hockey tournaments exciting , then roman brady is absolutely scintillating company . what ? tony : i ca n't help wondering why you 're really here . kate : well , i 'm not here to discuss raymond grant or stefano 's secret bequest ... although i 'm sure you have enough sense not to bring those matters up again . tony : i do n't have to . you just did , and quite deliberately . why ? kate : well , maybe i want to absolutely settle the matter -- that you will never know any more about those things than you already do , and if you continue to press the fact -- well , then our relationship is over . tony : ha ha ha . oh ... i did n't know we had a relationship . kate : you never know what the future may hold . tony : or what secrets the past , and how they may affect the future . oh , yes ... speaking of the past , i have some good news for you . a miracle . kate : what ? tony : my family 's expanding . kate : ah , yes . well , i heard that lexie was expecting finally . tony : no , no , i was referring to the twins -- cassie and rex . kate : what about them ? tony : well , i have reason to believe i may be their father . roman : you know what , brandon ? um , that 's kind of interesting . why do n't you want my daughter talking to me about this murder ? brandon : samantha likes to hypothesize , and idle speculation -- well , it can get a lot of people into trouble . roman : do you have any information you have n't already given me ? sami : no . dad , you have questioned me , like , a million times . i know that tony dimera 's your prime suspect . that 's why you 're here , is n't it ? roman : you helped finger him . sami : well , yeah , because he threatened colin , but that does n't mean that he actually whacked him . it could he been anyone ! roman : like who ? sami : look , i do n't know . brandon 's right . i should stay out of it . brandon : you know , samantha , i have a few minutes before my next patient . we ought to talk . sami : excuse me , dad . roman : sure . sami : oh , um , good luck with kate , okay ? brandon : what the hell is wrong with you ? sam pardon me ? brandon : if i had n't happened to walk by just now , what were you going to tell your father ? sami : nothing ! we were just shooting the breeze . brandon : bull . sami : look , dentists talk to their kids about teeth and , you know , cops talk about their crimes . brandon : you were about to point the finger at nicole . sami : i was not . brandon : do n't lie to me . sami : look , i had to ask him about tony , okay ? and then i wanted to make sure that they were n't investigating nicole -- okay ? d did you just bring me out here to yell at me ? brandon : no . i 've been thinking about it , samantha , and ... there 's something i have to tell you , something you 're not going to want to hear . sami : oh , my god . are you saying it 's over between us ? kate : so , the mother of the twins -- marlena , perhaps ? tony : why would you think that ? kate : stefano -- he bequeathed her that pillow with the gemini constellation on the back . everyone knows that he imprisoned her for years . she has no memory of where she was or what happened . my poor friend . she must feel terrible about all the years she lost with those twins . roman : what are you talking about ? marlena more than made up for any time she missed with sami and eric . kate : well , hello , roman . roman : what are you doing , talking with him about my kids ? kate : i 'm not . i 'm talking about the gemini twins . roman : marlena 's not their mother . what the hell kind of ideas are you putting in kate 's head ? tony : hmm . bo : did you see him again ? hope : i 'm fine . bo : okay . answer the question . did you see him again -- larry welch ? hope : split second , but i know he 's dead . i know that seeing him is a symptom of this post - traumatic stress i 've been experiencing . bo : okay . why the gloves and the punching bag ? hope : part of my recovery . bo : there 's no one to punch . hope : maybe not ... but i need to do this just the same . brady , my recovery is n't as simple as taking pills like a good little girl and keeping my appointments with marlena . no , it also has a lot to do with how i feel -- about me , my self - confidence . and when i was on the force , i was training and working out all the time . i had a different sense about myself . i walked differently . i felt that whatever came up i could handle it . i 've lost that in recent years . bo : you 've been a full - time mom . hope : i feel too vulnerable . i need to empower myself . i do n't ever want to be a victim again , or go through life with a ripple of this fear always at the back of my neck every time i walk into a narrow space or see a shadow . bo : i understand that . hope : that 's why i signed up for the self - defense class . bo : okay . workouts -- they 're a good way to relieve stress . hope : not to mention the endorphins , brady . bo : ooh . ha ha ! love those endorphins . come here . hope : i 'm not discounting the therapy . bo : mm . hope : but i 'm determined to do everything i can to protect myself , and you know what ? bo : what ? hope : i am going to come out of this even stronger than i was before . bo : of course you will . hope : all right , where 's that medication ? let 's start it right now . 'cause larry welch is never going to get me ever again . larry : no , even if that towel does n't freak hope out or raise the suspicions of the great detective , bo still ca n't connect it to me . ha ha . that 's the good news about being dead -- i 'm not to blame . heck , i 'm just a poor innocent ghost . but here 's some bad news -- hope 's got a new prescription , and these pills are definitely not what the doctor ordered . jennifer : oh ... jack : it 's written all over your face . there 's something wrong , and you 're keeping it from me . jennifer : i 'm not , jack . all right ? i 'm not . i 'm -- i 'm tired , and -- and i do n't feel well , that 's all . jack : it 's okay ! it 's all right . it 's okay . do n't worry about it . it 's just water . the fact is , if you were n't feeling well , maybe you should n't have gone out . jennifer : i had to go out . jack : why ? what is so important ? jennifer : just -- i had to talk to hope , that 's all . jack : but you could n't talk to me and tell me what 's bothering you ? jennifer : i can't . jack : you can . you know , you said that you love me . jennifer : i do . jack : and yet you 're keeping secrets from me again . jennifer : it 's because i love you so much that i ca n't tell you -- jack : tell me what ? jennifer : that i think i 'm pregnant y , it 's me . jennifer : oh . jack : you think you 're pregnant . are you saying ... jennifer : i 'm saying that ... that it would be colin 's , that it would be his baby . jack : no . jennifer : i mean , the one time , and i was n't even thinking , jack , i was ... i was so desperate to save you . he threatened your life , and i was going to do anything to keep him from leaving that room . he was going to hunt you down and kill you , jack , i know it . jack : i think maybe you 're jumping to conclusions . maybe it was this one time . jennifer : i 'm not . i 'm not jumping to conclusions . jack , i have morning sickness . i have fatigue . i 'm tired . i ... jack : you have the flu . that 's what you have . you 've got the flu . and you got a stomach flu ... jennifer : i do n't know . i may have the flu , jack . i have n't even taken a pregnancy test . i do n't know . maybe i do have the flu . jack : you have n't taken a test ? jennifer , why have n't you taken the test ? larry : forging marlena 's signature for this prescription was a bitch . but , you know , it 's going to pay off big time . there 's just one last detail i got to take care of before i move on to step two of my new plan . hope , honey , you 're going down . [ telephone rings ] bo : brady . woman : it 's amy , christopher dunn 's assistant at the lab . bo : oh , hey , thanks for getting back to me so quick . amy : yeah , i ran those tests on that blood sample you brought in . the stuff on the dish towel turned out to be chicken blood . bo : there 's nothing human ? amy : no , sir . bo : oh , great . i appreciate the quick work , and good night . oh , man , that 's a relief . hope : brady ? bo : what ? hope : uh , i picked up the phone in the kitchen . i could n't help overhearing . what t this about a towel with blood ? bo : i found it in our garbage can . hope : you had it tested because you believed itas human blood . bo : i just needed to check it out . hope : so you believe me . you think it was me who killed colin , do n't you ? brandon : i honestly do n't know if we 're through . one thing i do know , if we continue this relationship , we 're going to have to make some big changes . sami : absolutely . i totally agree . i can change , just as long as i know you want to make this relationship work . you do , do n't you ? brandon : yes , but -- sami : oh , brandon . brandon : but , samantha , i am not choosing between you and my sister , now or ever , and you had no right to ask me to do that . sami : the words just came out of my mouth before i could stop myself . i have totally regretted saying it . brandon : and the whole idea is -- it 's crazy . sami : if someone told me i had to choose between you and eric , i would tell them that they were totally crazy , insane , nuts , totally ... brandon : i love you . sami : i love you , too , brandon . brandon : and i understand how you feel about nicky , and i do n't expect you guys to be friends . but i do expect for you to accept that she is my sister , and i would never let anyone harm her or cause her any grief . i mean , she 's my blood . you have to respect that . sami : i do . brandon : i do n't think you do -- not from what i just heard between you and your father . sami : i already explained that . brandon : well , why ca n't you just stay ouofof it ? why do you have to bring up the murder investigation at all ? sami : look , i was just asking a simple question . brandon : like hell you were . you were trying to point the finger at nicole . sami : no , i just wanted to see if they suspect her . brandon : you were trying to put the thought in his head . sami : no , look , you told me that if nicole gets arrested , you 're going to confess , that you 're going to go to jail on her behalf . look , i just -- i need to make sure that that does n't happen , so i wanted to know if the cops have turned up anything . brandon : no one is going to arrest my sister . sami : that is something i 've always admired about you -- your willingness to go the distance , that you never give up . i mean , you proved it to me in italy , and you proved it to lexie , even though i was so jealous of all the time you spent with her . i really admire that you 'll do anything for your friends , brandon , and ... why , when i do it , is it so bad ? brandon : samantha , don't . sami : look , i would do anything for you , brandon . why is that so wrong ? brandon : because i do n't know if you 're alally trying to help me or you 're just helping yourself -- again . tony : well , all i said to kate was i may be the twins ' father . roman : how do you figure that , tony ? tony : well , i just went through surgy . y. i needed a transfusion . then i found out that my young ward cassie -- she has the same rare blood marker i do . roman : so bingo , you 're the father . tony : well , when put together , i think it 's a logical conclusion . roman : well , how the hell do you jump from that to marlena being their mother ? tony : oh , i didn't . kate did . roman : ah , kate did , huh ? what about marlena ? does she think it 's a possibility ? tony : oh , i would n't want to assume . roman : you know what , kate ? i 'd like to talk to tony alone if i could . will you excuse us , please ? kate : oh , yes , of course . enjoy the flowers . tony : oh , kate , thank you , and please , you 're welcome to come visit anytime . kate : thank you . i will . tony : so tell me , did you shoo kate away because you thought what she was saying was true , about marlena and me ? roman : nice try , tony , but i 'm not going to take the bait . no , i am here to , uh , update you on the hit - and - run . tony : oh , you found out who ran me over , huh ? roman : well , we do have a license plate number , but it turns out that car was reported stolen that very same morning . tony : oh . so what you 're telling me is you 've come up empty - handed . why am i not surprised ? roman : have you remembered anything else ? tony : well , just that i was in the wrong place at the wrong time , but good thing i pushed brady to safety . but i 've heard that he went through a previous painful bout of paralysis . your fault . if the story 's true ... roman : the department will keep you posted on the investigation . tony : captain ... you do wish that the car had killed me , do n't you ? roman : now , why would i wish something like that on an innocent man ? tony : ahh . tony : oh , dr . ash . thank you so much for flying out . dr. ash : there 's nothing i would n't do for your family , sir . dr. rolf has apprised me of your injuries . i 've just notified the hospital i 'll be consulting in your case . are you up for an examination ? tony : of course . there 's so much to do . kate : `` marlena -- i just visited tony . i 'm concerned about something he said . i must talk to you soon . `` roman : kate . kate : what , are you following me ? roman : i was looking for marlena . what 's your excuse ? what 's that in your hand ? kate : a note . kate : well ... i think we should leave , do n't you ? roman : kate , let me buy you a cup of coffee . kate : listen , roman , i really do n't have the time . roman : well , make the time , 'cause i 'm exactly what you need right now . jennifer : i do n't want to admit that it 's true . i just keep pushing the thought away . jack : you got to take that test , jennifer . you got to find out for sure . jennifer : i know that . i know that . jack : i mean , this could very easily be a false alarm . jennifer : what if i am pregnant ? what does that do to abby or to you or -- or the possibility of our future together ? jack : i - i mean ... this may -- it may all just be nothing . look , you feel guilty about what happened with colin . i know that . and you 're jumping to the wrong -- the worst possible conclusion just to punish yourself . that 's what you 're doing . jennifer : jack , i fainted in hope 's yard . as symptoms go , that 's a pretty hard one to ignore . jack , look at me . jennifer : how will you feel if i am pregnant with colin 's baby ? bo : no , hope , i do n't believe you . i do n't think you killed colin murphy . hope : then why go to the trouble and the expense of having some test done ? bo : there was a bloody towel in our garbage . i wanted to check it out . hope : you did n't ask me about it . in fact , you did n't even mention it . bo : i did n't want to upset you , have you speculating again . you know , like you did when you cut your hand , you had blood on your hand the night that -- hope : the night thacocolin was murdered . bo : would you please listen to me ? you 're not a killer . hope : i would have killed larry to protect our boys . i would have killed larry to protect you . you know what ? maybe that 's what happened . maybe i killed colin thinking that it was larry . bo : please , let 's not go there . hope : how can i not go there ? bo : hope , this is nothing with the towel . you heard the lady on the phone . it was chick blood , that 's all . no big deal . hope : i am confused . bo : well , the only thing that confuses me is how a bloody towel got in our garbage . did you put it there ? hope : no . bo : who the hell did ? larry : larry , my man ... you 're never at a loss . bo shoots me dead , i come back as a ghost to haunt hope . bo finds the bloody towel , i 'm already way ahead of him with plan number 2 . hope ... once you take these pills , you 're never goi to need a refill . guys . that 's great . go wash up . sami : i was trying to do both . i wanted to help you and myself . brandon : by framing nicole for colin 's murder ? i got news for you , samantha -- that is not the kind of help i need . sami : i realize that now . brandon : but the fact that it would even occur to you makes me think that as long as you get what you want , the end justifies the means . was that more or less your thinking ? when you want something , it is ready , aim , fire , and to hell with whoever gets hit . well , i 'm tired of ducking , samantha , because one of these days , i or someone i care about is going to get hurt . sami : i lost my temper , okay ? you lose your temper , too , sometimes . brandon : i know . i 'm -- i 'm sorry for what happened in the loft . throwing my water bottle against the wall ... i lost control , and i am not proud of myself for letting that happen . sami : it 's okay . i know you 'd never hurt me , and i know that you love me . i hope you know how much i love you . brandon : i 'm not disputing any of that . it 's just sometimes ... love is n't enough . tony : so , um , atat are my chances of a full recovery ? dr. ash : well , you 've regained the feeling in your legs , which means you 're not paralyzed , obviously , but thisittle accident may set you back a bit . tony : oh , no chance . every crisis is an opportunity . who knows -- maybe my injuries will serve me better than anything i could have planned . god knows -- ha ha -- the timing could n't have been better . kate : look , roman , i really do n't have the time . roman : kate , i care about you . i know you 're scared . i know you 're hiding something . stefano hurt you in the past just like he hurt me , john , marlena . tony 's just like his father . if you 're smart , you 'll stay away from him . kate : do you really think marlena 's the mother of thosewiwins ? roman : well , that 's hard to believe , but if it 's true , it 's a new low for stefano dimera . listen , kate , i can see you do n't want to talk about this anymore right now , but i really wish you would . i ca n't protect you if i do n't know what you need protection from . i do n't want to see you get hurt by the dimeras again . you ca n't fight tony alone . roman : all right . all right , kate . you know where to find me . jennifer : jack , answer me , please . what if i am pregnant with colin 's baby ? jack : i 'm sorry , jennifer . i have to go . hope : we did have chicken earlier this week . bo : store - bought chickens do n't bleed all over the place . they do n't bleed at all . hope : yeah , but it had one of those little packages inside the chicken -- you know , the liver , the heart -- bo : the giblets , yeah . hope : exactly . shawn took it over to the neighbors ' dog after dinner . then he cleaned up . maybe he put the towel inside the garbage . bo : i 'll ask him about it . hope : chicken blood . whoa . i - i think -- i think the pill 's starting to kick in . bo : you 're feeling better ? hope : yeah . yeah , i think i am . i 'm going to make an appointment to talk to marlena . i hereby resolve not to keep any more spooky thoughts inside my head . bo : ghosts do shrivel up and vanish when you expose them to the light . hope : mm . i 'm going to beat this thing . i 'm going to beat it for you and the boys -- myself as well . bo : that 's the way i like to hear you talk . hope : and nobody is going to stop me , especially the ghost of larry welch . larry : you know what they say ... what does n't cure you will kill you . roman : did you and he have children together ? kate : is it true that marlena may be the mother of the twins ? john : that 's none of your business , kate . it is nobody 's business . belle : i told shawn . i 'm going to go . sami : that is the stupidest thing i have ever heard .

it 's after hours . jack : sure , sure . sorry . jennifer : bo just called to , um , to thank me for -- for coming by . jack : so , how about hope ? is she feeling any better ? jennifer : she , uh ... she 's just tryg g to recover , you know , from everything that 's happened to her , but it 's hard . larry welch put her through hell , and she 's having residual effects from that , jack . jack : like what ? jennifer : and i hate myself for what i did , and i know that colin is going to be part of my life forever now , hope . hope : no , do n't think that -- jennifer : yes , he is . there is no way that i can forget about him . hope : yes , you 've got to . jennifer : how ?

hope : i used to be pretty good when i was on the force , remember ? i 'm just trying to polish up my skills . do n't try and mess with me . do n't even think about it ! [ grunting ] bo : whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa . hope : [ grunting ] bo : hey , hey , this is not the way to get rid of larry . bo : you ca n't get rid of him by taking a class or putting on the gloves . look , i , um , picked up this prescription that marlena wrote out for you , if you want to try the medication , but i personally think that therapy 's the only way you 're going to get rid of those demons . hope : `` take as needed for anxiety . not to exceed more than four tablets daily . `` bo : hey . i love you . i 'm going to be with you every step of the way ... helping you fight those fears . look , larry 's dead . he 's nothing but a ghost . larry : you know what your problem is , detective brady ? you 're just too damn aggressive . pushy . rummaging through garbage , taking things that are n't meant for you . i should have known , i should have known , i should have known you would grab that bloody towel before hope could find it . why the hell did i expect things to go smoothly with you around screwing things up ? maybe , on the otr r hand ... you know , this just might work in my favor . maybe it 'll plant a seed in that tiny little brain of yours , convince you that your perfect little wife just might be a cold - blooded killer . romanststop . you do not start in . do not make snide remarks about me and kate or me and anybody else , for that matter . i wo n't stand for it . sami : talk about overreacting . roman : get back to work . sami : dad , all right , i 'm sorry , okay ? look , i - i know that i 'm annoying sometimes and that i can be a brat sometimes . roman : sometimes ? sami : i 'm sorry , okay ? i just -- i just worry about you getting hurt . roman : well , don't . sami : look , she is all wrong for you , dad ! roman : i 'll be the judge of that . sami : you 're depressed about something . roman : i am fine . sami : what has she done to you ? roman : will you just stop ? sami : i keep telling you she does n't really care about you . she does n't have it in her to care about anyone . roman : sami , that 's enough ! sami : her and her dirty little secrets . roman : what ? what do you know about kate 's secrets ? sami : nothing . she 's just always acting like she 's hiding soththing . roman : be specific . sami : that does n't matter . the point is , i know that she is not the right woman for you . roman : you do not know that ! let me go out on a big limb here and say you do n't know squat about who 's right for me , you , or anybody else , so for you to even have an opinion about who i should or should n't be dating ... sami : oh , dad , you 're -- you 're being so mean . roman : what , you can hand out criticism , be judgmental , but you ca n't take it yourself ? sami : i 'm not upset about that . it just -- i had a fight with brandon earlier and that 's why i 'm upset , and i 'm just taking it out on you . dad , my love life is falling apart . dad ... roman : hey , come here . come here , come here . sami : why ca n't anything ever work out for me ? roman : look , it 's not just you , all right ? it 's just the way things are . look , just because you love somebody does n't guarantee you a happy ending . sami : i do n't want to be alone . roman : neither do i . sami : you know what ? i 'm going to fix it . i am going to make it better . i 'll make up with brandon . i 'll cook him a nice dinner and put on some sexy music -- roman : hey , i get the idea , all right ? sami : i 'm sorry , daddy . look , we 've had fights before and i have managed to fix it , and i 'm just going to fix this one , too . roman : well , you are determined , i 'll give you that . sami : and now i had better get back to work before brenda has me fired . roman : all right , go . sami : thanks , dad . oh , um , i wanted to ask you about colin 's murder . do you have any leads or suspects or anything ? brandon : that 's none of your business . sami : brandon . brandon : i do n't want you shooting your mouth off about colin 's murder , you understand ? just lay off it . kate : now , why would i want one of salem 's few witty men to die ? witty and handsome -- the daily double . tony : yes . ha ha ha . well , i 'm quite useful when it comes to making captain brady jealous . well , is n't that what was going on the night we were together ? ke : e : no . no , not at all . actually , i was very grateful to you that night in tuscany . you saved me from a very boring dinner . although , of course , if you find reliving hockey tournaments exciting , then roman brady is absolutely scintillating company . what ? tony : i ca n't help wondering why you 're really here . kate : well , i 'm not here to discuss raymond grant or stefano 's secret bequest ... although i 'm sure you have enough sense not to bring those matters up again . tony : i do n't have to . you just did , and quite deliberately . why ? kate : well , maybe i want to absolutely settle the matter -- that you will never know any more about those things than you already do , and if you continue to press the fact -- well , then our relationship is over . tony : ha ha ha . oh ... i did n't know we had a relationship . kate : you never know what the future may hold . tony : or what secrets the past , and how they may affect the future . oh , yes ... speaking of the past , i have some good news for you . a miracle . kate : what ? tony : my family 's expanding . kate : ah , yes . well , i heard that lexie was expecting finally . tony : no , no , i was referring to the twins -- cassie and rex . kate : what about them ? tony : well , i have reason to believe i may be their father . roman : you know what , brandon ? um , that 's kind of interesting . why do n't you want my daughter talking to me about this murder ? brandon : samantha likes to hypothesize , and idle speculation -- well , it can get a lot of people into trouble . roman : do you have any information you have n't already given me ? sami : no . dad , you have questioned me , like , a million times . i know that tony dimera 's your prime suspect . that 's why you 're here , is n't it ? roman : you helped finger him . sami : well , yeah , because he threatened colin , but that does n't mean that he actually whacked him . it could he been anyone ! roman : like who ? sami : look , i do n't know . brandon 's right . i should stay out of it . brandon : you know , samantha , i have a few minutes before my next patient . we ought to talk . sami : excuse me , dad . roman : sure . sami : oh , um , good luck with kate , okay ? brandon : what the hell is wrong with you ? sam pardon me ? brandon : if i had n't happened to walk by just now , what were you going to tell your father ? sami : nothing ! we were just shooting the breeze . brandon : bull . sami : look , dentists talk to their kids about teeth and , you know , cops talk about their crimes . brandon : you were about to point the finger at nicole . sami : i was not . brandon : do n't lie to me . sami : look , i had to ask him about tony , okay ? and then i wanted to make sure that they were n't investigating nicole -- okay ? d did you just bring me out here to yell at me ? brandon : no . i 've been thinking about it , samantha , and ... there 's something i have to tell you , something you 're not going to want to hear . sami : oh , my god . are you saying it 's over between us ? kate : so , the mother of the twins -- marlena , perhaps ? tony : why would you think that ? kate : stefano -- he bequeathed her that pillow with the gemini constellation on the back . everyone knows that he imprisoned her for years . she has no memory of where she was or what happened . my poor friend . she must feel terrible about all the years she lost with those twins . roman : what are you talking about ? marlena more than made up for any time she missed with sami and eric . kate : well , hello , roman . roman : what are you doing , talking with him about my kids ? kate : i 'm not . i 'm talking about the gemini twins . roman : marlena 's not their mother . what the hell kind of ideas are you putting in kate 's head ? tony : hmm . bo : did you see him again ? hope : i 'm fine . bo : okay . answer the question . did you see him again -- larry welch ? hope : split second , but i know he 's dead . i know that seeing him is a symptom of this post - traumatic stress i 've been experiencing . bo : okay . why the gloves and the punching bag ? hope : part of my recovery . bo : there 's no one to punch . hope : maybe not ... but i need to do this just the same . brady , my recovery is n't as simple as taking pills like a good little girl and keeping my appointments with marlena . no , it also has a lot to do with how i feel -- about me , my self - confidence . and when i was on the force , i was training and working out all the time . i had a different sense about myself . i walked differently . i felt that whatever came up i could handle it . i 've lost that in recent years . bo : you 've been a full - time mom . hope : i feel too vulnerable . i need to empower myself . i do n't ever want to be a victim again , or go through life with a ripple of this fear always at the back of my neck every time i walk into a narrow space or see a shadow . bo : i understand that . hope : that 's why i signed up for the self - defense class . bo : okay . workouts -- they 're a good way to relieve stress . hope : not to mention the endorphins , brady . bo : ooh . ha ha ! love those endorphins . come here . hope : i 'm not discounting the therapy . bo : mm . hope : but i 'm determined to do everything i can to protect myself , and you know what ? bo : what ? hope : i am going to come out of this even stronger than i was before . bo : of course you will . hope : all right , where 's that medication ? let 's start it right now . 'cause larry welch is never going to get me ever again . larry : no , even if that towel does n't freak hope out or raise the suspicions of the great detective , bo still ca n't connect it to me . ha ha . that 's the good news about being dead -- i 'm not to blame . heck , i 'm just a poor innocent ghost . but here 's some bad news -- hope 's got a new prescription , and these pills are definitely not what the doctor ordered . jennifer : oh ... jack : it 's written all over your face . there 's something wrong , and you 're keeping it from me . jennifer : i 'm not , jack . all right ? i 'm not . i 'm -- i 'm tired , and -- and i do n't feel well , that 's all . jack : it 's okay ! it 's all right . it 's okay . do n't worry about it . it 's just water . the fact is , if you were n't feeling well , maybe you should n't have gone out . jennifer : i had to go out . jack : why ? what is so important ? jennifer : just -- i had to talk to hope , that 's all . jack : but you could n't talk to me and tell me what 's bothering you ? jennifer : i can't . jack : you can . you know , you said that you love me . jennifer : i do . jack : and yet you 're keeping secrets from me again . jennifer : it 's because i love you so much that i ca n't tell you -- jack : tell me what ? jennifer : that i think i 'm pregnant y , it 's me . jennifer : oh . jack : you think you 're pregnant . are you saying ... jennifer : i 'm saying that ... that it would be colin 's , that it would be his baby . jack : no . jennifer : i mean , the one time , and i was n't even thinking , jack , i was ... i was so desperate to save you . he threatened your life , and i was going to do anything to keep him from leaving that room . he was going to hunt you down and kill you , jack , i know it . jack : i think maybe you 're jumping to conclusions . maybe it was this one time . jennifer : i 'm not . i 'm not jumping to conclusions . jack , i have morning sickness . i have fatigue . i 'm tired . i ... jack : you have the flu . that 's what you have . you 've got the flu . and you got a stomach flu ... jennifer : i do n't know . i may have the flu , jack . i have n't even taken a pregnancy test . i do n't know . maybe i do have the flu . jack : you have n't taken a test ? jennifer , why have n't you taken the test ? larry : forging marlena 's signature for this prescription was a bitch . but , you know , it 's going to pay off big time . there 's just one last detail i got to take care of before i move on to step two of my new plan . hope , honey , you 're going down . [ telephone rings ] bo : brady . woman : it 's amy , christopher dunn 's assistant at the lab . bo : oh , hey , thanks for getting back to me so quick . amy : yeah , i ran those tests on that blood sample you brought in . the stuff on the dish towel turned out to be chicken blood . bo : there 's nothing human ? amy : no , sir . bo : oh , great . i appreciate the quick work , and good night . oh , man , that 's a relief . hope : brady ? bo : what ? hope : uh , i picked up the phone in the kitchen . i could n't help overhearing . what t this about a towel with blood ? bo : i found it in our garbage can . hope : you had it tested because you believed itas human blood . bo : i just needed to check it out . hope : so you believe me . you think it was me who killed colin , do n't you ? brandon : i honestly do n't know if we 're through . one thing i do know , if we continue this relationship , we 're going to have to make some big changes . sami : absolutely . i totally agree . i can change , just as long as i know you want to make this relationship work . you do , do n't you ? brandon : yes , but -- sami : oh , brandon . brandon : but , samantha , i am not choosing between you and my sister , now or ever , and you had no right to ask me to do that . sami : the words just came out of my mouth before i could stop myself . i have totally regretted saying it . brandon : and the whole idea is -- it 's crazy . sami : if someone told me i had to choose between you and eric , i would tell them that they were totally crazy , insane , nuts , totally ... brandon : i love you . sami : i love you , too , brandon . brandon : and i understand how you feel about nicky , and i do n't expect you guys to be friends . but i do expect for you to accept that she is my sister , and i would never let anyone harm her or cause her any grief . i mean , she 's my blood . you have to respect that . sami : i do . brandon : i do n't think you do -- not from what i just heard between you and your father . sami : i already explained that . brandon : well , why ca n't you just stay ouofof it ? why do you have to bring up the murder investigation at all ? sami : look , i was just asking a simple question . brandon : like hell you were . you were trying to point the finger at nicole . sami : no , i just wanted to see if they suspect her . brandon : you were trying to put the thought in his head . sami : no , look , you told me that if nicole gets arrested , you 're going to confess , that you 're going to go to jail on her behalf . look , i just -- i need to make sure that that does n't happen , so i wanted to know if the cops have turned up anything . brandon : no one is going to arrest my sister . sami : that is something i 've always admired about you -- your willingness to go the distance , that you never give up . i mean , you proved it to me in italy , and you proved it to lexie , even though i was so jealous of all the time you spent with her . i really admire that you 'll do anything for your friends , brandon , and ... why , when i do it , is it so bad ? brandon : samantha , don't . sami : look , i would do anything for you , brandon . why is that so wrong ? brandon : because i do n't know if you 're alally trying to help me or you 're just helping yourself -- again . tony : well , all i said to kate was i may be the twins ' father . roman : how do you figure that , tony ? tony : well , i just went through surgy . y. i needed a transfusion . then i found out that my young ward cassie -- she has the same rare blood marker i do . roman : so bingo , you 're the father . tony : well , when put together , i think it 's a logical conclusion . roman : well , how the hell do you jump from that to marlena being their mother ? tony : oh , i didn't . kate did . roman : ah , kate did , huh ? what about marlena ? does she think it 's a possibility ? tony : oh , i would n't want to assume . roman : you know what , kate ? i 'd like to talk to tony alone if i could . will you excuse us , please ? kate : oh , yes , of course . enjoy the flowers . tony : oh , kate , thank you , and please , you 're welcome to come visit anytime . kate : thank you . i will . tony : so tell me , did you shoo kate away because you thought what she was saying was true , about marlena and me ? roman : nice try , tony , but i 'm not going to take the bait . no , i am here to , uh , update you on the hit - and - run . tony : oh , you found out who ran me over , huh ? roman : well , we do have a license plate number , but it turns out that car was reported stolen that very same morning . tony : oh . so what you 're telling me is you 've come up empty - handed . why am i not surprised ? roman : have you remembered anything else ? tony : well , just that i was in the wrong place at the wrong time , but good thing i pushed brady to safety . but i 've heard that he went through a previous painful bout of paralysis . your fault . if the story 's true ... roman : the department will keep you posted on the investigation . tony : captain ... you do wish that the car had killed me , do n't you ? roman : now , why would i wish something like that on an innocent man ? tony : ahh . tony : oh , dr . ash . thank you so much for flying out . dr. ash : there 's nothing i would n't do for your family , sir . dr. rolf has apprised me of your injuries . i 've just notified the hospital i 'll be consulting in your case . are you up for an examination ? tony : of course . there 's so much to do . kate : `` marlena -- i just visited tony . i 'm concerned about something he said . i must talk to you soon . `` roman : kate . kate : what , are you following me ? roman : i was looking for marlena . what 's your excuse ? what 's that in your hand ? kate : a note . kate : well ... i think we should leave , do n't you ? roman : kate , let me buy you a cup of coffee . kate : listen , roman , i really do n't have the time . roman : well , make the time , 'cause i 'm exactly what you need right now . jennifer : i do n't want to admit that it 's true . i just keep pushing the thought away . jack : you got to take that test , jennifer . you got to find out for sure . jennifer : i know that . i know that . jack : i mean , this could very easily be a false alarm . jennifer : what if i am pregnant ? what does that do to abby or to you or -- or the possibility of our future together ? jack : i - i mean ... this may -- it may all just be nothing . look , you feel guilty about what happened with colin . i know that . and you 're jumping to the wrong -- the worst possible conclusion just to punish yourself . that 's what you 're doing . jennifer : jack , i fainted in hope 's yard . as symptoms go , that 's a pretty hard one to ignore . jack , look at me . jennifer : how will you feel if i am pregnant with colin 's baby ? bo : no , hope , i do n't believe you . i do n't think you killed colin murphy . hope : then why go to the trouble and the expense of having some test done ? bo : there was a bloody towel in our garbage . i wanted to check it out . hope : you did n't ask me about it . in fact , you did n't even mention it . bo : i did n't want to upset you , have you speculating again . you know , like you did when you cut your hand , you had blood on your hand the night that -- hope : the night thacocolin was murdered . bo : would you please listen to me ? you 're not a killer . hope : i would have killed larry to protect our boys . i would have killed larry to protect you . you know what ? maybe that 's what happened . maybe i killed colin thinking that it was larry . bo : please , let 's not go there . hope : how can i not go there ? bo : hope , this is nothing with the towel . you heard the lady on the phone . it was chick blood , that 's all . no big deal . hope : i am confused . bo : well , the only thing that confuses me is how a bloody towel got in our garbage . did you put it there ? hope : no . bo : who the hell did ? larry : larry , my man ... you 're never at a loss . bo shoots me dead , i come back as a ghost to haunt hope . bo finds the bloody towel , i 'm already way ahead of him with plan number 2 . hope ... once you take these pills , you 're never goi to need a refill . guys . that 's great . go wash up . sami : i was trying to do both . i wanted to help you and myself . brandon : by framing nicole for colin 's murder ? i got news for you , samantha -- that is not the kind of help i need . sami : i realize that now . brandon : but the fact that it would even occur to you makes me think that as long as you get what you want , the end justifies the means . was that more or less your thinking ? when you want something , it is ready , aim , fire , and to hell with whoever gets hit . well , i 'm tired of ducking , samantha , because one of these days , i or someone i care about is going to get hurt . sami : i lost my temper , okay ? you lose your temper , too , sometimes . brandon : i know . i 'm -- i 'm sorry for what happened in the loft . throwing my water bottle against the wall ... i lost control , and i am not proud of myself for letting that happen . sami : it 's okay . i know you 'd never hurt me , and i know that you love me . i hope you know how much i love you . brandon : i 'm not disputing any of that . it 's just sometimes ... love is n't enough . tony : so , um , atat are my chances of a full recovery ? dr. ash : well , you 've regained the feeling in your legs , which means you 're not paralyzed , obviously , but thisittle accident may set you back a bit . tony : oh , no chance . every crisis is an opportunity . who knows -- maybe my injuries will serve me better than anything i could have planned . god knows -- ha ha -- the timing could n't have been better . kate : look , roman , i really do n't have the time . roman : kate , i care about you . i know you 're scared . i know you 're hiding something . stefano hurt you in the past just like he hurt me , john , marlena . tony 's just like his father . if you 're smart , you 'll stay away from him . kate : do you really think marlena 's the mother of thosewiwins ? roman : well , that 's hard to believe , but if it 's true , it 's a new low for stefano dimera . listen , kate , i can see you do n't want to talk about this anymore right now , but i really wish you would . i ca n't protect you if i do n't know what you need protection from . i do n't want to see you get hurt by the dimeras again . you ca n't fight tony alone . roman : all right . all right , kate . you know where to find me . jennifer : jack , answer me , please . what if i am pregnant with colin 's baby ? jack : i 'm sorry , jennifer . i have to go . hope : we did have chicken earlier this week . bo : store - bought chickens do n't bleed all over the place . they do n't bleed at all . hope : yeah , but it had one of those little packages inside the chicken -- you know , the liver , the heart -- bo : the giblets , yeah . hope : exactly . shawn took it over to the neighbors ' dog after dinner . then he cleaned up . maybe he put the towel inside the garbage . bo : i 'll ask him about it . hope : chicken blood . whoa . i - i think -- i think the pill 's starting to kick in . bo : you 're feeling better ? hope : yeah . yeah , i think i am . i 'm going to make an appointment to talk to marlena . i hereby resolve not to keep any more spooky thoughts inside my head . bo : ghosts do shrivel up and vanish when you expose them to the light . hope : mm . i 'm going to beat this thing . i 'm going to beat it for you and the boys -- myself as well . bo : that 's the way i like to hear you talk . hope : and nobody is going to stop me , especially the ghost of larry welch . larry : you know what they say ... what does n't cure you will kill you . roman : did you and he have children together ?

billy : i 'm fine , besides the sandpaper sheets . a little beat up . my ego took the worst of it , i think . ashley : i bet whoever was riding on the back of your bike is gon na think twice about doing that again . billy : well , i see jack did n't take long to share the news . ashley : well , you know , is it that shocking ? billy : hardly . no . abbott family 's new preoccupation -- my personal life . ashley : oh , really ? so you do n't think we have the right to be concerned about you ? you crashed your bike , and you 're lucky to be alive . again , i might add . billy : yes , i am the luckiest guy in the world . besides , of course , ponies and cards . that 's , like -- ashley : oh , please . stop . you got kids that love you . i love you . you got a lot of people that love you , and you 've got a great job . so , what the hell do you want , billy ? phyllis : so , is billy being released from the hospital ? jack : ashley is picking him up as we speak . i told her it would most likely be futile , but she 's determined to talk some sense into our brother . phyllis : well , i guess it 's a good sign that he 's being released so soon . nothing more than a few cuts and bruises . jack : this time . phyllis : you think there 'll be a next time ? jack : it 's billy . is n't there always a next time ? phyllis : you know , maybe this accident is the wake - up call he needs . jack : oh , boy , would i love to believe that . but forget the fact that he just crashed his motorcycle and ended up in the hospital . his whole life seems to be this one , big , wild ride . and he does n't give a damn who gets hurt , including the people he loves . abby : have you thought about getting a second opinion ? stitch : i saw the scans , spoke to max 's doctors . they 're convinced the tumor 's what 's causing his behavior . abby : and you 're convinced , too . stitch : i ca n't -- i ca n't stand it , abby -- the idea of this mass making my kid angry , unable to control his emotions . that 's -- i know that 's not who max is . that 's almost the worst part -- he believes that he 's capable of these horrible things . i want him to get his life , his mind , his soul back . but that surgery -- it 's -- it 's dangerous . what if he comes out of it changed in other ways ? i mean , he could have trouble talking or moving . abby : how can i make this better for you ? stitch : i do n't know what to do . you 're my wife , abby . tell me what we do . jennifer : the latest blood work on your drug - trial patients . dr. neville : yes , yes , yes . hallelujah to suspensions being lifted . no . no , no , no , no , no , no , no . jennifer , you 're sure you personally handled the samples ? you followed the prescribed protocol ? jennifer : as you requested . is there a problem , doctor ? dr. neville : [ sighs ] yes , i 'd say there 's a major problem . neil : hey , there . i saw your latest press release . the revamped drug that you 're working on is gon na be ready for approval by fall . yeah . well , you and your team work very quick . congratulations . hilary : one more time , neil , with a little feeling . neil : uh , despite the good news , i know that you and the team -- you 'll be dealing with setbacks . it 's a complicated business bringing a new drug to the marketplace . you 're really gon na have your hands full . hilary : yeah , is there a point in there somewhere ? neil : i 'm just saying that while you 're overseeing neville 's project , i 'll be more than happy to pick up the slack at the foundation . hilary : oh , do n't even go there . neil : where ? where exactly is `` there , `` young lady ? hilary : if you think this is your opportunity to push me out , well , you can think again . neil : hold on a second . i am just being realistic . there are so many hours in a day , hilary . hilary : and i intend to make the most of every single one of them . i 've carried this research project to the finish line , overcome all obstacles . me . because that is what i do . so , to suggest that i 'm not up to some simple multitasking -- well , that 's just plain underestimating me . people have done that before , neil , and they have lived to regret it . neil : [ chuckles ] devon : what did i miss ? abby : i 've been trying to put myself in your place , if i had to make this decision . stitch : and ... ? abby : i think you should take yourself out of the equation -- your thoughts , your fears , your emotions . i know that it sounds impossible , but think about what max would want if he knew the implications of the surgery , the kind of life that max would want . what would max choose ? stitch : i think my son would want to be free of this . no matter the risk , i think he 'd want to be himself again . abby : so do i . stitch : thank you . abby : i did n't do anything . stitch : yeah , you did . i have n't forgotten what we lost . and still , you 're thinking and caring about max . abby : of course . he 's a part of you . he 's a part of our family . stitch : well , i - i should go see him , you know , explain the situation , tell him we 're gon na get the tumor removed , right ? abby : i 'll go with you . i mean , we -- we could talk to him , bring him to the facility together . abby : i offered . stitch : no , i know . you just -- you know , you 've got work and ... look , maybe i should do this alone . abby : okay . um , well , call me with any updates and keep me posted . stitch : i will . abby : i love you . stitch : i love you , too . so much . devon : hi . neil : i was just congratulating your lovely wife on the good news about the drug trial . and between that and the foundation , it 's not easy to keep all those balls in the air . and she 's doing -- you 're doing an excellent job , hilary . hilary : thank you , neil . i could n't have done any of it without the support of my loving husband . devon : but what 's all this about good news ? neil : right , so , the drug is all set for approval . devon : the suspension was just lifted . we 're still in the testing phase . we 're not ready for that yet . hilary : oh , well -- neil : wait , wait , wait . wait , wait . no , no . the latest press release said that it 's all set to launch in the fall . you -- you did n't know ? i - i did n't know that you did n't know . i did n't mean to spring this on you . i figured , as the financial backer here , that you would be included in all decision making . and i -- they -- you should know before the general public does . devon : i guess not . phyllis : well , you know billy . sometimes , he gets caught up in the moment and does things without thinking . jack : [ chuckles ] sometimes ? thanks . phyllis : do n't make him out to be such a monster , jack . he never intentionally tried to hurt anyone . jack : but he does hurt people . and not just himself . how much time and energy have i spent worrying about billy , terrified of the next mess he 's gon na get himself into ? and saying that he ca n't help himself only works for so long . he 's not a lost adolescent anymore . he 's a grown man with children . actions have consequences , consequences that have deep and lasting effects . billy : you want to know what i want ? ashley : yes . billy : i want to go , you know , a day without a lecture from you or -- or arguing with you . ashley : how is this arguing ? billy : i do n't know . whatever it is , i just -- i do n't -- [ sighs ] i 'm exhausted . the nurses were coming in all night . i did n't get any sleep . i just want to go home . i want to take a shower , and i want to go to bed . ashley : okay . fine . i 'll back off . billy : you 've said that before . ashley : i mean it . billy : for how long ? ashley : i do n't know . the whole ride home , i 'll keep my opinions to myself . billy : [ chuckles ] the whole ride home , all five miles of it ? ashley : yes . billy : no way that you can go that long . ashley : if that 's what you want , billy , we will ride the entire way home in silence . can we go now ? are you ready ? let 's go . billy : oh , i 'm ready . bethany : actually , billy wo n't be needing that ride . i 've got it covered . hey . sorry i 'm late . phyllis : if history is any indication , billy is gon na be just fine . he 's gon na wake up . he 's gon na come to his senses and realize what he 's risking and go back to victoria and his kids . jack : that 's the thing . this does n't seem like all the other times . it seems different somehow , like -- like all the damage that 's done is permanent . and the most unnerving part is billy does n't seem to care . phyllis : you do n't think he regrets hurting his family ? jack : i sense zero regret or remorse on his part . got two beautiful kids , a woman who stuck by every single crash and burn , and he 's walking away from it , throwing it all away . it makes no sense . for what ? billy : i did n't expect to see you after our last conversation . bethany : well , i would never leave you here stranded , silly . ashley : yeah , silly . billy : ash , this is -- bethany : bethany . billy : this is bethany . ashley : hi , bethany . i 'm ash . i 'm billy 's sister . bethany : nice to meet you . ashley : likewise . billy : i 'm sorry you wasted a trip . ashley : oh , billy . time with you is never wasted . glad to know you 're doing okay . bethany : me , too . billy : yeah . ashley : and i can see that you 're in very capable hands , so i will talk to you later . billy : and i 'm sure we 'll have a lot to talk about . ashley : yeah . yeah , that offer i made about keeping quiet ? that 's pretty much off the table now , bill . billy : figured so . yeah . ashley : okay . bye . bethany : bye . ashley : nice to meet you . bethany : you , too . billy : okay . correct me if i 'm wrong , but i did n't think i was your favorite person at the moment . bethany : that might be a slight over - statement . billy : what are you doing here ? bethany : [ chuckles ] well , i had to see a doctor . apparently , i walked away from a very serious motorcycle accident . dr. neville : ashley . ashley : [ gasps ] dr. neville : i 'm sorry . ashley : hi . were you waiting for me ? dr. neville : well , i did n't want to intrude on your time with your brother . um ... are you bringing the car around ? we should really -- ashley : no , my brother actually found another ride home . dr. neville : ah . ashley : what 's happening ? what 's the matter ? dr. neville : well , for one thing , if you have to ask , i take it you have n't seen hilary 's latest press release . ashley : no . what is it ? dr. neville : read it and weep , literally . hilary : the timing of the press release was strategic ... neil : oh , i do n't doubt that . hilary : ... based on the fda 's scheduling process and a few other factors , which i 'll be happy to explain to you , but the bottom line is that it was in the best interest of the project . so , i made an executive decision . you know , my job , by the way . neil : as long as you 're not promising something that you and the team ca n't safely deliver . devon : are you accusing her of pushing the drug through before it 's ready ? hilary : yeah , of course he is . neil : you said it yourself , son -- fall is too soon . devon : well , you know , maybe i 've been misinformed , because i know that hilary would n't cut corners on something that 's this important . hilary : thank you , honey . devon : mm - hmm . hilary : believe me or not , my one and only goal is to save lives , the same way that this drug saved mine . ashley : fall ? ! hilary 's telling the world that the drug is gon na be available by fall ? dr. neville : i know . i read it . ashley : has she forgotten it was n't that long ago we had the setback with that one patient ? dr. neville : two . ashley : what do you mean two ? dr. neville : i just found out a second patient has suffered some severe side effects . ashley : we have to call some kind of a press conference . we have to get in front of this , right ? what ? dr. neville : unfortunately , public perception is the least of our worries . billy : so , so ... bethany . bethany : oh , you got my name right . good job . billy : yeah . you 're -- you 're probably wondering why i said you were on the bike with me . bethany : not really . your girlfriend already explained it . billy : my what ? bethany : phyllis ? dangerous game you 're playing , messing around with your brother 's wife . billy : okay , i do n't know where you got your information from , but phyllis and i -- we 're just -- we 're friends . bethany : if you say so . billy : i 'm saying so . there 's nothing going on between me and phyllis . bethany : no , of course not . you guys are just friends . which is why she told me you 'd pay me $ 10,000 to go along with your cover story . 'cause that 's what friends do , right ? so , you ready to get out of here or what ? phyllis : this new woman that billy is seeing -- you know , maybe she 's gon na be good for him . jack : maybe . phyllis : you sound so enthusiastic . jack : do you honestly think this waitress is along for billy 's life ? phyllis : oh , please do n't tell me you have a problem with her occupation . jack : no . i have a problem with my brother latching himself on to the first pretty face that comes along . jill told me this relationship is anything but . i feel sorry for the girl . phyllis : why ? jack : what if she actually has feelings for billy ? what if she really cares about him ? what 's gon na happen when she realizes he 's not even on the same page ? phyllis : how do you know she 's not ? jack : because i know my brother and i know how he operates . phyllis : it 's not -- jack : it 's his -- it 's his life . i know . and he 's gon na live it the way he needs to live it . phyllis : and it still bothers you . jack : yeah , it bothers me . why is he wasting time with a woman that means nothing to him ? i would understand all of this if he did n't have an amazing woman in his life -- bright and smart and talented , someone who 's been there for him , who 's put up with him , who has a deep connection with him , a kind of connection most people -- most people only dream of . hey . i want him to have what we have . is that so wrong ? dr. neville : plasma protein binding , lipoprotein , glycoprotein . there 's a specificity of orientation . ashley : could you please just cut to the chase and tell me what we 're dealing with ? dr. neville : the less bound a drug is , the more efficiently it 's able to traverse cell membranes , to diffuse , to target very specific -- ashley : which makes it more efficient . i understand that . but what i really need here is just a summary of the results , please . dr. neville : one patient suffering from this type of negative reaction is nothing . it 's -- it 's an anomaly . but two could indicate a pattern . ashley : so , i think what you 're trying to say is that , initially , the drug works , but then , over time , it dissipates ? dr. neville : ergo not the permanent solution we were hoping for . ashley : so , wait a second . are you saying to me that i could be relapsing right now ? dr. neville : oh , god . no . [ smooches ] you 're fine . thank god . but there may be other issues . i -- ah . perfect . perfect timing . abby : hey . am i interrupting ? dr. neville : no , ms . abby , quite the contrary . as always , your timing is absolutely exceptional . now , you have to excuse me because there is a pressing matter i have to look into . ashley : keep me updated , please . dr. neville : what ? oh , yeah . of course . abby : um , is everything okay ? ashley : [ sighs ] you tell me . abby : no . everything is terrible . ashley : what happened ? is it max ? abby : ben is in an awful position , and all i want to do is face it with him , but he wo n't let me . stitch : so , the scans that the doctors took -- they were ... taking pictures of your brain . max : they told me that . but -- but they did n't tell me why . stitch : so , [ sighs ] the brain is this complex organ , right ? way more complex than any computer ever made . and it 's -- you know , it 's connected to everything we do -- walking , talking , eating , playing video games , even how we feel . but like a computer , if something were to get inside that should n't ... max : like spyware . stitch : exactly . then the brain wo n't work the way it 's supposed to . max : the doctors found spyware in my brain , did n't they ? stitch : a bunch bad cells called a tumor . and that 's affecting the part of you that manages your emotions . that 's why when you get angry or you 're feeling upset , it just gets bigger and bigger until you ca n't control it anymore . max : you 're talking about when i hurt abby . stitch : this is good news , max . this was n't your fault . you understand ? if you did n't have that spyware in you , then you would n't have done any of those things . max : can they take it out ? stitch : they can . these are some of the best doctors in the world . and they perform many surgeries like this . max : then why do you look so scared ? stitch : that 's just part of being a dad , i guess . max : you never get scared , dad . stitch : sometimes , i do . here 's the deal , buddy . these doctors , even though they 're some of the best , as good as they are ... there 's a tiny bit of risk , okay ? without meaning to , they could hurt parts of your brain that connect to other things . and i know this is a lot to take in , max . it 's a lot for me , too . but you 're a big kid now , and i ... i want you to know everything . we 're in this together , okay ? and if there was any other way to remove this tumor , a safer way , we would do it . unfortunately , there is n't . max : i want them to do the surgery . stitch : you sure ? max : i - i - i do n't want to do bad stuff anymore . i -- just , please , get it out . please , just get it out . abby : i mean , what other choice is there ? max has to have the surgery . ashley : it does n't make the choice any easier , honey . abby : no . ashley : here . abby : i 'm just -- i 'm so heartbroken for ben . he looked so lost and scared . ashley : maybe he needs -- needs to hold on to the fact that this might give max a normal life . ashley : yeah . it could , but even the slightest mistake during the procedure could mean major effects for max . i mean , the whole thing -- it just -- ashley : i know . it 's awful . i 'm so sorry you 're going through this , honey . abby : i just -- i feel bad for all of us . i - i keep thinking about ben . it 's like forever he 's been torn between me and his son , running back and forth , trying to make us both happy . ashley : but not anymore . i thought that now that you know what 's wrong with max , you guys were on the same team . abby : we were . i mean , he -- he opened up to me . he really opened up to me . he even asked my opinion about max . ashley : well , that 's good . so , what changed ? abby : well , i offered to go with him to see max , to break the news . i wanted to be there for both of them , and he just completely shut me down . ashley : what did he say ? abby : well , he said that he could n't possibly ask me to do that , that he did n't want to take me away from work , and that , i do n't know , maybe he should do it alone . ashley : maybe ? abby . abby : what ? ashley : he desperately wants you with him . abby : then why would he -- ashley : because he does n't want to pressure you . honey , max is the reason why you lost your baby . ben probably does n't feel like he has the right to ask that of you . abby : well , of course he has the right . i 'm his wife . ashley : so , maybe there 's someplace you need to be . abby : thank you . ashley : i love you , honey . abby : i love you . dr. neville : hilary , apologies for interrupting . do you have a moment ? i need to speak to you in private . hilary : uh , yeah . this is actually perfect timing . i have some press dates that i need to go over with you . and my list is upstairs , so excuse us . neil : oh , yeah . devon : sure . bye , now . dr. neville : gentlemen . neil : doctor . devon . devon : yeah ? neil : come here . do n't forget -- you 're the sole investor in that research . if hilary is cutting corners , man , you -- hey . you 're the one who 's gon na take the heat . devon : i 'm very aware of that , neil , and we 've been through this already , okay ? i understand that hilary 's ambitious . i do . but this is not some vanity case . neville 's protocols saved her life . you remember . neil : hey , hey , i agree with all this . but there 's -- devon : no , there 's no `` but . `` hilary is dedicated to seeing this project through the right way . she 's not going to put people 's lives at risk . neil : i sure hope that you 're 100 % sure about this . hilary : i assume that this is about the press release . you think i 'm jumping the gun , but i will tell you ... dr. neville : actually , no , i do n't . hilary : ... why . it 's because of you , dr. neville , because i believe in you that much . dr. neville : hilary , how are you feeling ? hilary : i 'm fine . and i hate to bring this up , but i 'm the one that defended you when no one else would . i 'm the reason why you have this opportunity . dr. neville : look at me . look at me . hilary : what ? dr. neville : have you had any headaches or blurry vision ? hilary : no . dr. neville : huh . hilary : and i really do n't want to go there , but one word from me about your involvement in my kidnapping , and you might be saying goodbye to your medical license and a possible hello to a jail cell . hey , can you ... dr. neville : how 's your stamina ? have you had any fatigue ? hilary : no . i 'm great . i go pilates every morning , and that 's after a two - mile run . dr. neville , please , ca n't you see ? we are just starting to regain momentum after this problem with that one test subject . if we do n't capitalize on this right now , we are gon na backslide . dr. neville : look at this . hilary : why ? dr. neville : please just do it . just humor me . all right ? pink , blue , yellow , white . pink , blue , yellow , white . now , put them in the original pattern . [ sighs ] well , thank god for that . hilary : okay , what is it ? what is with all of these questions ? dr. neville : i 'm sorry . it 's not just the one subject who had a setback . there 's another major problem with a test patient , which leads me to believe that the drug is more of a -- it 's more a temporary patch than a permanent solution . hilary : okay , nice try , but this is not gon na work . jack : i know i sound like a broken record , but billy has a once - in - a - lifetime opportunity to be with the woman he 's meant to be with . he 's not taking it . he 's throwing it away . [ cell phone rings ] jack : it just -- it makes me sad . that 's all . work ? phyllis : yeah . i have to take this . excuse me . why are you calling me ? billy : i thought you 'd want to know how i got home from the hospital . phyllis : santa claus ? billy : bethany . phyllis : well , that 's good . you remembered her name this time . billy : that ride cost me 10 grand . why did you tell her that ? phyllis : do not worry about bethany . she can be managed . what is important is that our cover story is believable . billy : for jack . phyllis : yes , for jack . if he finds out that i was on the back of that motorcycle , he will figure it out in two seconds . and i can not have that . i can not have my life implode because of one mistake , especially one mistake that will never be repeated . you got it ? billy ? billy : yeah . loud and clear . phyllis : good . you have a girlfriend now . you keep that up as much as you can . i know you already slept with her , so it should n't be too much of a hardship . billy : [ sighs ] you know she 's not who i want to be with . phyllis : you just play along , all right ? please . it 's gon na be best for all of us . hilary : your interrogation , your little memory test -- you 're trying to freak me out . dr. neville : why would i do that ? hilary : so that i would second - guess myself and postpone the release . dr. neville : that 's crassly manipulative . almost diabolical . and so not in my nature . hilary : oh , but it 's in mine ? dr. neville : i did n't say that . hilary : you know what ? i can not take another p.r . nightmare . you are gon na keep quiet about this other subject . understood ? dr. neville : [ scoffs ] we have a responsibility to our patients ! we 're playing with people 's lives ! hilary : have you not been listening ? no , you were probably too busy rearranging sugar packets . i am the only reason why you have a medical license . [ scoffs ] because of me , because i vouched for you in the press . dr. neville : which can easily be undone . hilary : i did n't say that . get your act together , neville . fix the drug , and fast , because it will be rolling out by the fall . dr. neville : yes , i 'll -- i 'll get right on that . [ door opens ] [ door closes ] devon : do n't talk about my wife like that . neil : hey . you do n't want to hear it ? devon : no , i do n't want to hear it . neil : you know why ? because deep down inside , you know that i 'm right . she is cold - blooded , man . she is not the same woman that you fell in love with . devon : that 's not true . neil : i know that it 's hard . i get that . i really do . i know that you 've been through a lot of issues with her , a lot of heartbreak , a lot of pain . devon : yeah , a lot of pain for everyone . neil : but you know what i see on the horizon ? a lot more pain . you may seem like you 're happy , but it 's no reason to stay with her , man . come on . she 's been using everyone , and she 's using you to do it . she 's walking all over us . it 's wrong , and you 're better than that . devon : let me tell you something for the record . i 'm staying with hilary because she is my wife and i love her . neil : yeah , okay . you want to believe that . devon : no , do n't -- do n't tell me what i believe . i swear , between you , lily , cane , i really wish this whole family could just love and respect each other . neil : yeah , well , that 's difficult to do when -- when your wife is blackmailing every single one of us . devon : well , hey , look in the mirror , 'cause you started this . neil : oh , god . devon : when you took her , you kidnapped her , kept her from me , let neville treat her like a guinea pig . remember that ? neil : okay , i 'm not proud of that moment . i 'm not . but you are trapped , and i am trying to help you find a way out . devon : i do n't want to argue about this anymore with you . neil : i do n't want to argue , either , about it . devon : great , let 's talk about something else . neil : okay , then let 's do that . devon : let 's talk about you . neil : what about me ? devon : you 're drinking ? neil : i 'm sorry that you had to find out that way . devon : i - i do n't care how i found out . i just want to make sure that you 're okay . neil : yeah , i 'm just fine , thank you . i 'm taking each day as it comes . and the most important thing -- ha . i 'm being honest with myself . denial is a powerful thing . ashley : hey . dr. neville : hi . ashley : how did it go with hilary ? dr. neville : how do you do that ? ! what is it with you people ? ashley : what people ? dr. neville : you ! women ! femmes ! the fairer sex ! i never told you i was gon na see hilary ! how do you know what i 'm gon na do before i do it ? ashley : do you want to know the truth ? dr. neville : yes ! ashley : i 'm smarter than you are . dr. neville : ha . well , there it is . ashley : so , how did it go ? did she revise her timeline now that she knows about the second patient ? dr. neville : what do you think ? ashley : did you tell her that this could personally affect her ? because i guarantee that will get her attention . dr. neville : i did n't have to . she made the connection herself . and instead of expressing concern , she accused me of trying to manipulate her , abusing the crisis to scare her into slowing things down . ashley : because you 're such a master of manipulation . she will do anything to protect her image . dr. neville : well , she 'd do a lot more to protect her health . ashley : what do you mean ? what are you saying ? dr. neville : i 'm not sure she 's aware of it , but i noticed a tremor in one of her hands . hilary is exhibiting signs of a possible relapse . jack : i 'm sorry . here i am having dinner with my beautiful wife , and all i 'm doing is talking about my kid brother . no more . i 'm gon na use my time more wisely . phyllis : really ? jack : really . phyllis : are you thinking of anything in particular ? jack : well , nothing i can say out loud in a public place . billy : yeah , well , i imagine it would be . bethany : [ chuckles ] billy : well ... hi . did n't expect to see you here , but i 'm glad that we ran into you . uh , jack , phyllis , this is bethany . phyllis : hi , bethany . bethany : hi . jack : why do you look so familiar ? billy : she 's a waitress and a bartender here at the club . jack : of course she is . yeah , very nice to meet you , bethany . bethany : hi . phyllis : how are you doing after the accident ? i mean ... bethany : well , luckily i came out unscathed . i just wish i could say the same for billy . jack : oh , billy will bounce back . he always does . billy : already have . bethany : well , it was a pleasure to officially meet you both . billy talks about you so much , i feel like i already know you . jack : by the way , thank you for calling 911 , for getting my brother medical attention . bethany : of course . billy : yeah , she 's , uh , she 's a lifesaver . shall we ? bethany : i 'm starving . billy : good to see you . jack : okay , what do you say we get the check and get out of here ? there 's a lot of people here . i want to be alone with my beautiful wife . red ? this is really getting to you , is n't it ? bethany : [ chuckles ] stitch : let 's get out of here for a while . want to head to the arcade ? max : nah . maybe just hang in the park . stitch : sounds good . hey . what are you , uh ... abby : i 'm glad i caught you before you left . max : dad told you ? abby : he did . and i wanted to be here when he explained it , but i was n't sure it was my place , and ... i 'm sorry . max : for what ? abby : because i realize now that ... of course it 's my place . my place is with you . we 're -- we 're family . i 'd like to go to the facility with you , get you settled in , but only if you 're okay with that . come here . we 're gon na get through this . the three of us . i promise . devon : hey . did , uh , did neville have concerns about the press release ? should i ? hilary : first of all , just thank you for what you said downstairs , for defending me to neil . devon : yeah . hilary : i promise i wo n't let you down . okay ? now , as for neville , he 's assured me that everything 's fine . we are on track for a fall rollout . devon : okay . ashley : so why are you more concerned about hilary relapsing than me ? dr. neville : because of the difference in your condition . or rather the way very specific cells react in different conditions on a molecular level . you and hilary are night and day in this case . ashley : what do you mean ? in every case . dr. neville : that , too . ashley : so , what does all this mean ? dr. neville : it means i better come up with our fix , and soon . or hilary 's gon na wind up back in a coma . phyllis : it is upsetting , seeing him put on a show , pretend to be happy . but i can not control him . we can only control ourselves . let 's get back to us . i like us . jack : ooh , amen to that . at the risk of sounding obsessive , though ... phyllis : you ? no . jack : it 's just kind of depressing seeing him fawn all over that woman when he 's in love with someone else . [ next_on ] summer : luca and i are not just dating . we 're living together . adam : i just need to know if my father said anything to you that might indicate the fact that he set me up . victor : been awhile since you 've come to see me .
stitch , abby , and max start to bond as a family when they decide max should have the surgery to remove his brain tumor , because despite the risks involved , max wants to try to have a normal life . dr neville tells ashley and hilary that another test patient is having serious side effects of the drug , and he fears that it might be a temporary fix instead of a cure . dr. neville does some tests on hilary and notices a tremor in her hand . he later tells ashley that the tremor means that hilary could be in a coma again if he does n't find a way to fix the drug . hilary tells dr. neville that he should keep quiet about the latest patient and fix the problem because the drug will roll out in the fall . jack worries that billy is making reckless decisions about his life that could have serious consequences which ca n't be fixed . phyllis begs billy to pretend that bethany is his girlfriend and makes it clear to him that she wants to stay with jack because she loves him . phyllis also tells billy that they will never have sex again because that was a mistake . billy introduces bethany to jack and phyllis who ca n't help being jealous .
<s>[INST] ashley : [ sighs ] oh , billy . again ? do n't know where to kiss you . billy : bring it in . ashley : mwah ! keep this up and the hospital 's gon na start charging you rent . billy : yeah , well , they 're gon na have to up the thread count . this is -- this is -- it 's ridiculous . ashley : how are you doing ? billy : i 'm fine , besides the sandpaper sheets . a little beat up . my ego took the worst of it , i think . ashley : i bet whoever was riding on the back of your bike is gon na think twice about doing that again . billy : well , i see jack did n't take long to share the news . ashley : well , you know , is it that shocking ? billy : hardly . no . abbott family 's new preoccupation -- my personal life . ashley : oh , really ? so you do n't think we have the right to be concerned about you ? you crashed your bike , and you 're lucky to be alive . again , i might add . billy : yes , i am the luckiest guy in the world . besides , of course , ponies and cards . that 's , like -- ashley : oh , please . stop . you got kids that love you . i love you . you got a lot of people that love you , and you 've got a great job . so , what the hell do you want , billy ? phyllis : so , is billy being released from the hospital ? jack : ashley is picking him up as we speak . i told her it would most likely be futile , but she 's determined to talk some sense into our brother . phyllis : well , i guess it 's a good sign that he 's being released so soon . nothing more than a few cuts and bruises . jack : this time . phyllis : you think there 'll be a next time ? jack : it 's billy . is n't there always a next time ? phyllis : you know , maybe this accident is the wake - up call he needs . jack : oh , boy , would i love to believe that . but forget the fact that he just crashed his motorcycle and ended up in the hospital . his whole life seems to be this one , big , wild ride . and he does n't give a damn who gets hurt , including the people he loves . abby : have you thought about getting a second opinion ? stitch : i saw the scans , spoke to max 's doctors . they 're convinced the tumor 's what 's causing his behavior . abby : and you 're convinced , too . stitch : i ca n't -- i ca n't stand it , abby -- the idea of this mass making my kid angry , unable to control his emotions . that 's -- i know that 's not who max is . that 's almost the worst part -- he believes that he 's capable of these horrible things . i want him to get his life , his mind , his soul back . but that surgery -- it 's -- it 's dangerous . what if he comes out of it changed in other ways ? i mean , he could have trouble talking or moving . abby : how can i make this better for you ? stitch : i do n't know what to do . you 're my wife , abby . tell me what we do . jennifer : the latest blood work on your drug - trial patients . dr. neville : yes , yes , yes . hallelujah to suspensions being lifted . no . no , no , no , no , no , no , no . jennifer , you 're sure you personally handled the samples ? you followed the prescribed protocol ? jennifer : as you requested . is there a problem , doctor ? dr. neville : [ sighs ] yes , i 'd say there 's a major problem . neil : hey , there . i saw your latest press release . the revamped drug that you 're working on is gon na be ready for approval by fall . yeah . well , you and your team work very quick . congratulations . hilary : one more time , neil , with a little feeling . neil : uh , despite the good news , i know that you and the team -- you 'll be dealing with setbacks . it 's a complicated business bringing a new drug to the marketplace . you 're really gon na have your hands full . hilary : yeah , is there a point in there somewhere ? neil : i 'm just saying that while you 're overseeing neville 's project , i 'll be more than happy to pick up the slack at the foundation . hilary : oh , do n't even go there . neil : where ? where exactly is `` there , `` young lady ? hilary : if you think this is your opportunity to push me out , well , you can think again . neil : hold on a second . i am just being realistic . there are so many hours in a day , hilary . hilary : and i intend to make the most of every single one of them . i 've carried this research project to the finish line , overcome all obstacles . me . because that is what i do . so , to suggest that i 'm not up to some simple multitasking -- well , that 's just plain underestimating me . people have done that before , neil , and they have lived to regret it . neil : [ chuckles ] devon : what did i miss ? abby : i 've been trying to put myself in your place , if i had to make this decision . stitch : and ... ? abby : i think you should take yourself out of the equation -- your thoughts , your fears , your emotions . i know that it sounds impossible , but think about what max would want if he knew the implications of the surgery , the kind of life that max would want . what would max choose ? stitch : i think my son would want to be free of this . no matter the risk , i think he 'd want to be himself again . abby : so do i . stitch : thank you . abby : i did n't do anything . stitch : yeah , you did . i have n't forgotten what we lost . and still , you 're thinking and caring about max . abby : of course . he 's a part of you . he 's a part of our family . stitch : well , i - i should go see him , you know , explain the situation , tell him we 're gon na get the tumor removed , right ? abby : i 'll go with you . i mean , we -- we could talk to him , bring him to the facility together . abby : i offered . stitch : no , i know . you just -- you know , you 've got work and ... look , maybe i should do this alone . abby : okay . um , well , call me with any updates and keep me posted . stitch : i will . abby : i love you . stitch : i love you , too . so much . devon : hi . neil : i was just congratulating your lovely wife on the good news about the drug trial . and between that and the foundation , it 's not easy to keep all those balls in the air . and she 's doing -- you 're doing an excellent job , hilary . hilary : thank you , neil . i could n't have done any of it without the support of my loving husband . devon : but what 's all this about good news ? neil : right , so , the drug is all set for approval . devon : the suspension was just lifted . we 're still in the testing phase . we 're not ready for that yet . hilary : oh , well -- neil : wait , wait , wait . wait , wait . no , no . the latest press release said that it 's all set to launch in the fall . you -- you did n't know ? i - i did n't know that you did n't know . i did n't mean to spring this on you . i figured , as the financial backer here , that you would be included in all decision making . and i -- they -- you should know before the general public does . devon : i guess not . phyllis : well , you know billy . sometimes , he gets caught up in the moment and does things without thinking . jack : [ chuckles ] sometimes ? thanks . phyllis : do n't make him out to be such a monster , jack . he never intentionally tried to hurt anyone . jack : but he does hurt people . and not just himself . how much time and energy have i spent worrying about billy , terrified of the next mess he 's gon na get himself into ? and saying that he ca n't help himself only works for so long . he 's not a lost adolescent anymore . he 's a grown man with children . actions have consequences , consequences that have deep and lasting effects . billy : you want to know what i want ? ashley : yes . billy : i want to go , you know , a day without a lecture from you or -- or arguing with you . ashley : how is this arguing ? billy : i do n't know . whatever it is , i just -- i do n't -- [ sighs ] i 'm exhausted . the nurses were coming in all night . i did n't get any sleep . i just want to go home . i want to take a shower , and i want to go to bed . ashley : okay . fine . i 'll back off . billy : you 've said that before . ashley : i mean it . billy : for how long ? ashley : i do n't know . the whole ride home , i 'll keep my opinions to myself . billy : [ chuckles ] the whole ride home , all five miles of it ? ashley : yes . billy : no way that you can go that long . ashley : if that 's what you want , billy , we will ride the entire way home in silence . can we go now ? are you ready ? let 's go . billy : oh , i 'm ready . bethany : actually , billy wo n't be needing that ride . i 've got it covered . hey . sorry i 'm late . phyllis : if history is any indication , billy is gon na be just fine . he 's gon na wake up . he 's gon na come to his senses and realize what he 's risking and go back to victoria and his kids . jack : that 's the thing . this does n't seem like all the other times . it seems different somehow , like -- like all the damage that 's done is permanent . and the most unnerving part is billy does n't seem to care . phyllis : you do n't think he regrets hurting his family ? jack : i sense zero regret or remorse on his part . got two beautiful kids , a woman who stuck by every single crash and burn , and he 's walking away from it , throwing it all away . it makes no sense . for what ? billy : i did n't expect to see you after our last conversation . bethany : well , i would never leave you here stranded , silly . ashley : yeah , silly . billy : ash , this is -- bethany : bethany . billy : this is bethany . ashley : hi , bethany . i 'm ash . i 'm billy 's sister . bethany : nice to meet you . ashley : likewise . billy : i 'm sorry you wasted a trip . ashley : oh , billy . time with you is never wasted . glad to know you 're doing okay . bethany : me , too . billy : yeah . ashley : and i can see that you 're in very capable hands , so i will talk to you later . billy : and i 'm sure we 'll have a lot to talk about . ashley : yeah . yeah , that offer i made about keeping quiet ? that 's pretty much off the table now , bill . billy : figured so . yeah . ashley : okay . bye . bethany : bye . ashley : nice to meet you . bethany : you , too . billy : okay . correct me if i 'm wrong , but i did n't think i was your favorite person at the moment . bethany : that might be a slight over - statement . billy : what are you doing here ? bethany : [ chuckles ] well , i had to see a doctor . apparently , i walked away from a very serious motorcycle accident . dr. neville : ashley . ashley : [ gasps ] dr. neville : i 'm sorry . ashley : hi . were you waiting for me ? dr. neville : well , i did n't want to intrude on your time with your brother . um ... are you bringing the car around ? we should really -- ashley : no , my brother actually found another ride home . dr. neville : ah . ashley : what 's happening ? what 's the matter ? dr. neville : well , for one thing , if you have to ask , i take it you have n't seen hilary 's latest press release . ashley : no . what is it ? dr. neville : read it and weep , literally . hilary : the timing of the press release was strategic ... neil : oh , i do n't doubt that . hilary : ... based on the fda 's scheduling process and a few other factors , which i 'll be happy to explain to you , but the bottom line is that it was in the best interest of the project . so , i made an executive decision . you know , my job , by the way . neil : as long as you 're not promising something that you and the team ca n't safely deliver . devon : are you accusing her of pushing the drug through before it 's ready ? hilary : yeah , of course he is . neil : you said it yourself , son -- fall is too soon . devon : well , you know , maybe i 've been misinformed , because i know that hilary would n't cut corners on something that 's this important . hilary : thank you , honey . devon : mm - hmm . hilary : believe me or not , my one and only goal is to save lives , the same way that this drug saved mine . ashley : fall ? ! hilary 's telling the world that the drug is gon na be available by fall ? dr. neville : i know . i read it . ashley : has she forgotten it was n't that long ago we had the setback with that one patient ? dr. neville : two . ashley : what do you mean two ? dr. neville : i just found out a second patient has suffered some severe side effects . ashley : we have to call some kind of a press conference . we have to get in front of this , right ? what ? dr. neville : unfortunately , public perception is the least of our worries . billy : so , so ... bethany . bethany : oh , you got my name right . good job . billy : yeah . you 're -- you 're probably wondering why i said you were on the bike with me . bethany : not really . your girlfriend already explained it . billy : my what ? bethany : phyllis ? dangerous game you 're playing , messing around with your brother 's wife . billy : okay , i do n't know where you got your information from , but phyllis and i -- we 're just -- we 're friends . bethany : if you say so . billy : i 'm saying so . there 's nothing going on between me and phyllis . bethany : no , of course not . you guys are just friends . which is why she told me you 'd pay me $ 10,000 to go along with your cover story . 'cause that 's what friends do , right ? so , you ready to get out of here or what ? phyllis : this new woman that billy is seeing -- you know , maybe she 's gon na be good for him . jack : maybe . phyllis : you sound so enthusiastic . jack : do you honestly think this waitress is along for billy 's life ? phyllis : oh , please do n't tell me you have a problem with her occupation . jack : no . i have a problem with my brother latching himself on to the first pretty face that comes along . jill told me this relationship is anything but . i feel sorry for the girl . phyllis : why ? jack : what if she actually has feelings for billy ? what if she really cares about him ? what 's gon na happen when she realizes he 's not even on the same page ? phyllis : how do you know she 's not ? jack : because i know my brother and i know how he operates . phyllis : it 's not -- jack : it 's his -- it 's his life . i know . and he 's gon na live it the way he needs to live it . phyllis : and it still bothers you . jack : yeah , it bothers me . why is he wasting time with a woman that means nothing to him ? i would understand all of this if he did n't have an amazing woman in his life -- bright and smart and talented , someone who 's been there for him , who 's put up with him , who has a deep connection with him , a kind of connection most people -- most people only dream of . hey . i want him to have what we have . is that so wrong ? dr. neville : plasma protein binding , lipoprotein , glycoprotein . there 's a specificity of orientation . ashley : could you please just cut to the chase and tell me what we 're dealing with ? dr. neville : the less bound a drug is , the more efficiently it 's able to traverse cell membranes , to diffuse , to target very specific -- ashley : which makes it more efficient . i understand that . but what i really need here is just a summary of the results , please . dr. neville : one patient suffering from this type of negative reaction is nothing . it 's -- it 's an anomaly . but two could indicate a pattern . ashley : so , i think what you 're trying to say is that , initially , the drug works , but then , over time , it dissipates ? dr. neville : ergo not the permanent solution we were hoping for . ashley : so , wait a second . are you saying to me that i could be relapsing right now ? dr. neville : oh , god . no . [ smooches ] you 're fine . thank god . but there may be other issues . i -- ah . perfect . perfect timing . abby : hey . am i interrupting ? dr. neville : no , ms . abby , quite the contrary . as always , your timing is absolutely exceptional . now , you have to excuse me because there is a pressing matter i have to look into . ashley : keep me updated , please . dr. neville : what ? oh , yeah . of course . abby : um , is everything okay ? ashley : [ sighs ] you tell me . abby : no . everything is terrible . ashley : what happened ? is it max ? abby : ben is in an awful position , and all i want to do is face it with him , but he wo n't let me . stitch : so , the scans that the doctors took -- they were ... taking pictures of your brain . max : they told me that . but -- but they did n't tell me why . stitch : so , [ sighs ] the brain is this complex organ , right ? way more complex than any computer ever made . and it 's -- you know , it 's connected to everything we do -- walking , talking , eating , playing video games , even how we feel . but like a computer , if something were to get inside that should n't ... max : like spyware . stitch : exactly . then the brain wo n't work the way it 's supposed to . max : the doctors found spyware in my brain , did n't they ? stitch : a bunch bad cells called a tumor . and that 's affecting the part of you that manages your emotions . that 's why when you get angry or you 're feeling upset , it just gets bigger and bigger until you ca n't control it anymore . max : you 're talking about when i hurt abby . stitch : this is good news , max . this was n't your fault . you understand ? if you did n't have that spyware in you , then you would n't have done any of those things . max : can they take it out ? stitch : they can . these are some of the best doctors in the world . and they perform many surgeries like this . max : then why do you look so scared ? stitch : that 's just part of being a dad , i guess . max : you never get scared , dad . stitch : sometimes , i do . here 's the deal , buddy . these doctors , even though they 're some of the best , as good as they are ... there 's a tiny bit of risk , okay ? without meaning to , they could hurt parts of your brain that connect to other things . and i know this is a lot to take in , max . it 's a lot for me , too . but you 're a big kid now , and i ... i want you to know everything . we 're in this together , okay ? and if there was any other way to remove this tumor , a safer way , we would do it . unfortunately , there is n't . max : i want them to do the surgery . stitch : you sure ? max : i - i - i do n't want to do bad stuff anymore . i -- just , please , get it out . please , just get it out . abby : i mean , what other choice is there ? max has to have the surgery . ashley : it does n't make the choice any easier , honey . abby : no . ashley : here . abby : i 'm just -- i 'm so heartbroken for ben . he looked so lost and scared . ashley : maybe he needs -- needs to hold on to the fact that this might give max a normal life . ashley : yeah . it could , but even the slightest mistake during the procedure could mean major effects for max . i mean , the whole thing -- it just -- ashley : i know . it 's awful . i 'm so sorry you 're going through this , honey . abby : i just -- i feel bad for all of us . i - i keep thinking about ben . it 's like forever he 's been torn between me and his son , running back and forth , trying to make us both happy . ashley : but not anymore . i thought that now that you know what 's wrong with max , you guys were on the same team . abby : we were . i mean , he -- he opened up to me . he really opened up to me . he even asked my opinion about max . ashley : well , that 's good . so , what changed ? abby : well , i offered to go with him to see max , to break the news . i wanted to be there for both of them , and he just completely shut me down . ashley : what did he say ? abby : well , he said that he could n't possibly ask me to do that , that he did n't want to take me away from work , and that , i do n't know , maybe he should do it alone . ashley : maybe ? abby . abby : what ? ashley : he desperately wants you with him . abby : then why would he -- ashley : because he does n't want to pressure you . honey , max is the reason why you lost your baby . ben probably does n't feel like he has the right to ask that of you . abby : well , of course he has the right . i 'm his wife . ashley : so , maybe there 's someplace you need to be . abby : thank you . ashley : i love you , honey . abby : i love you . dr. neville : hilary , apologies for interrupting . do you have a moment ? i need to speak to you in private . hilary : uh , yeah . this is actually perfect timing . i have some press dates that i need to go over with you . and my list is upstairs , so excuse us . neil : oh , yeah . devon : sure . bye , now . dr. neville : gentlemen . neil : doctor . devon . devon : yeah ? neil : come here . do n't forget -- you 're the sole investor in that research . if hilary is cutting corners , man , you -- hey . you 're the one who 's gon na take the heat . devon : i 'm very aware of that , neil , and we 've been through this already , okay ? i understand that hilary 's ambitious . i do . but this is not some vanity case . neville 's protocols saved her life . you remember . neil : hey , hey , i agree with all this . but there 's -- devon : no , there 's no `` but . `` hilary is dedicated to seeing this project through the right way . she 's not going to put people 's lives at risk . neil : i sure hope that you 're 100 % sure about this . hilary : i assume that this is about the press release . you think i 'm jumping the gun , but i will tell you ... dr. neville : actually , no , i do n't . hilary : ... why . it 's because of you , dr. neville , because i believe in you that much . dr. neville : hilary , how are you feeling ? hilary : i 'm fine . and i hate to bring this up , but i 'm the one that defended you when no one else would . i 'm the reason why you have this opportunity . dr. neville : look at me . look at me . hilary : what ? dr. neville : have you had any headaches or blurry vision ? hilary : no . dr. neville : huh . hilary : and i really do n't want to go there , but one word from me about your involvement in my kidnapping , and you might be saying goodbye to your medical license and a possible hello to a jail cell . hey , can you ... dr. neville : how 's your stamina ? have you had any fatigue ? hilary : no . i 'm great . i go pilates every morning , and that 's after a two - mile run . dr. neville , please , ca n't you see ? we are just starting to regain momentum after this problem with that one test subject . if we do n't capitalize on this right now , we are gon na backslide . dr. neville : look at this . hilary : why ? dr. neville : please just do it . just humor me . all right ? pink , blue , yellow , white . pink , blue , yellow , white . now , put them in the original pattern . [ sighs ] well , thank god for that . hilary : okay , what is it ? what is with all of these questions ? dr. neville : i 'm sorry . it 's not just the one subject who had a setback . there 's another major problem with a test patient , which leads me to believe that the drug is more of a -- it 's more a temporary patch than a permanent solution . hilary : okay , nice try , but this is not gon na work . jack : i know i sound like a broken record , but billy has a once - in - a - lifetime opportunity to be with the woman he 's meant to be with . he 's not taking it . he 's throwing it away . [ cell phone rings ] jack : it just -- it makes me sad . that 's all . work ? phyllis : yeah . i have to take this . excuse me . why are you calling me ? billy : i thought you 'd want to know how i got home from the hospital . phyllis : santa claus ? billy : bethany . phyllis : well , that 's good . you remembered her name this time . billy : that ride cost me 10 grand . why did you tell her that ? phyllis : do not worry about bethany . she can be managed . what is important is that our cover story is believable . billy : for jack . phyllis : yes , for jack . if he finds out that i was on the back of that motorcycle , he will figure it out in two seconds . and i can not have that . i can not have my life implode because of one mistake , especially one mistake that will never be repeated . you got it ? billy ? billy : yeah . loud and clear . phyllis : good . you have a girlfriend now . you keep that up as much as you can . i know you already slept with her , so it should n't be too much of a hardship . billy : [ sighs ] you know she 's not who i want to be with . phyllis : you just play along , all right ? please . it 's gon na be best for all of us . hilary : your interrogation , your little memory test -- you 're trying to freak me out . dr. neville : why would i do that ? hilary : so that i would second - guess myself and postpone the release . dr. neville : that 's crassly manipulative . almost diabolical . and so not in my nature . hilary : oh , but it 's in mine ? dr. neville : i did n't say that . hilary : you know what ? i can not take another p.r . nightmare . you are gon na keep quiet about this other subject . understood ? dr. neville : [ scoffs ] we have a responsibility to our patients ! we 're playing with people 's lives ! hilary : have you not been listening ? no , you were probably too busy rearranging sugar packets . i am the only reason why you have a medical license . [ scoffs ] because of me , because i vouched for you in the press . dr. neville : which can easily be undone . hilary : i did n't say that . get your act together , neville . fix the drug , and fast , because it will be rolling out by the fall . dr. neville : yes , i 'll -- i 'll get right on that . [ door opens ] [ door closes ] devon : do n't talk about my wife like that . neil : hey . you do n't want to hear it ? devon : no , i do n't want to hear it . neil : you know why ? because deep down inside , you know that i 'm right . she is cold - blooded , man . she is not the same woman that you fell in love with . devon : that 's not true . neil : i know that it 's hard . i get that . i really do . i know that you 've been through a lot of issues with her , a lot of heartbreak , a lot of pain . devon : yeah , a lot of pain for everyone . neil : but you know what i see on the horizon ? a lot more pain . you may seem like you 're happy , but it 's no reason to stay with her , man . come on . she 's been using everyone , and she 's using you to do it . she 's walking all over us . it 's wrong , and you 're better than that . devon : let me tell you something for the record . i 'm staying with hilary because she is my wife and i love her . neil : yeah , okay . you want to believe that . devon : no , do n't -- do n't tell me what i believe . i swear , between you , lily , cane , i really wish this whole family could just love and respect each other . neil : yeah , well , that 's difficult to do when -- when your wife is blackmailing every single one of us . devon : well , hey , look in the mirror , 'cause you started this . neil : oh , god . devon : when you took her , you kidnapped her , kept her from me , let neville treat her like a guinea pig . remember that ? neil : okay , i 'm not proud of that moment . i 'm not . but you are trapped , and i am trying to help you find a way out . devon : i do n't want to argue about this anymore with you . neil : i do n't want to argue , either , about it . devon : great , let 's talk about something else . neil : okay , then let 's do that . devon : let 's talk about you . neil : what about me ? devon : you 're drinking ? neil : i 'm sorry that you had to find out that way . devon : i - i do n't care how i found out . i just want to make sure that you 're okay . neil : yeah , i 'm just fine , thank you . i 'm taking each day as it comes . and the most important thing -- ha . i 'm being honest with myself . denial is a powerful thing . ashley : hey . dr. neville : hi . ashley : how did it go with hilary ? dr. neville : how do you do that ? ! what is it with you people ? ashley : what people ? dr. neville : you ! women ! femmes ! the fairer sex ! i never told you i was gon na see hilary ! how do you know what i 'm gon na do before i do it ? ashley : do you want to know the truth ? dr. neville : yes ! ashley : i 'm smarter than you are . dr. neville : ha . well , there it is . ashley : so , how did it go ? did she revise her timeline now that she knows about the second patient ? dr. neville : what do you think ? ashley : did you tell her that this could personally affect her ? because i guarantee that will get her attention . dr. neville : i did n't have to . she made the connection herself . and instead of expressing concern , she accused me of trying to manipulate her , abusing the crisis to scare her into slowing things down . ashley : because you 're such a master of manipulation . she will do anything to protect her image . dr. neville : well , she 'd do a lot more to protect her health . ashley : what do you mean ? what are you saying ? dr. neville : i 'm not sure she 's aware of it , but i noticed a tremor in one of her hands . hilary is exhibiting signs of a possible relapse . jack : i 'm sorry . here i am having dinner with my beautiful wife , and all i 'm doing is talking about my kid brother . no more . i 'm gon na use my time more wisely . phyllis : really ? jack : really . phyllis : are you thinking of anything in particular ? jack : well , nothing i can say out loud in a public place . billy : yeah , well , i imagine it would be . bethany : [ chuckles ] billy : well ... hi . did n't expect to see you here , but i 'm glad that we ran into you . uh , jack , phyllis , this is bethany . phyllis : hi , bethany . bethany : hi . jack : why do you look so familiar ? billy : she 's a waitress and a bartender here at the club . jack : of course she is . yeah , very nice to meet you , bethany . bethany : hi . phyllis : how are you doing after the accident ? i mean ... bethany : well , luckily i came out unscathed . i just wish i could say the same for billy . jack : oh , billy will bounce back . he always does . billy : already have . bethany : well , it was a pleasure to officially meet you both . billy talks about you so much , i feel like i already know you . jack : by the way , thank you for calling 911 , for getting my brother medical attention . bethany : of course . billy : yeah , she 's , uh , she 's a lifesaver . shall we ? bethany : i 'm starving . billy : good to see you . jack : okay , what do you say we get the check and get out of here ? there 's a lot of people here . i want to be alone with my beautiful wife . red ?

[ scene_break ] charlie : the more time that elapses between the event and the interview , the more unreliable the eye - witness testimony becomes . lt . baker : the bullet helps us a lot , doctor , thank you . .22 caliber -- that narrows our search . is there any chance that stephanie could just save us a lot of time and trouble and tell us who shot her ?

jack : ashley knows we have enough votes in this family to put her back in charge . billy : are you thinking about doing that , jack ? jack : i am not going to let her use a document that was written decades ago to force her back into this office . billy : why did n't dad just tell you about the document , or ashley ? jack : there is no point in trying to figure that out . we have to find some way to get ashley to back down , to accept something other than the position as c.e.o . in compensation for her patents . billy : and you think that 's possible ?

i mean , the criminals there are just as hard as they are here . lily : and it 's four hours away . cane : you know , they 're doing this to move you to the farthest prison they can . lily : i mean , seeing my family is what 's helped me survive this , and if i 'm hundreds of miles from you -- cane : it 's not gon na happen . it 's not gon na happen , okay ?

cane : i do n't know , but , you know , he 's trying every resource he has , so we just have to hope for the best . lily : and prepare for the worst . cane : this is so unfair , i know . i mean , there 's -- there 's got to be another way that they can protect you . lily : you know what 's ironic is that this is all happening because i befriended someone . and if i had just done that with hilary instead of always attacking her ... cane : hey , hey , hey . do n't do that . do n't do it . do n't do it . lily : no , it 's true . my animosity is what killed hilary and her baby . and now i 'm paying the price for it . i 'm just sorry tht m y family has to pay for my mistakes . cane : do n't worry about us . okay ?

neil : michael said he 's looking into it . i 'm gon na give him a call and see if he found anything out . devon : senator ! i 'm well , thank you . did you happen to get my e - mail ? and did you have a chance to look over my sister 's case ? that 's correct . there was no drugs or alcohol involved , she was n't using her cellphone . she has no priors whatsoever . and it 's a bit ridiculous that they even put her in such a dangerous population , and now she 's being threatened . well , senator , i 've been supporting you for a while now because i believe that you fight for what is right . and that 's really all i 'm asking you to do here . well , i do n't think that an early release is unreasonable . well , sir , if i may , my wife and unborn child were killed in that accident , so if anyone would want to see lily punished , it 'd be me . but this is not the way to do it . it 's just wrong . she 's a good person who made a mistake , and i do n't believe that she should be punished in this way . no , i 'm not -- i do n't think that she should just walk . i think that she could be confined to her home , she could be monitored by having to wear an ankle bracelet , or , at the very least , transferred to a less secure facility . oh , no , no , no . senator -- not at all . i would never ask you to do anything that even hints of impropriety . yeah , that 's right . i 'm simply asking if you can just see what you can do , if anything at all . i appreciate that . i really do . and i 'll be looking forward to your call . nate : any luck ? neil : michael talked to the warden . she insists there 's no thing she can do about moving the other inmates . how about you ? devon : senator palmer said he 's going to do his best . neil : i hope that 's enough . traci : you guys look terrible . billy : yeah , we did n't exactly get our beauty sleep last night . jack : we were here all night trying to come up with a solution we can all live with . kyle : you really think that 's a thing ? abby : i just saw my mom . i do n't think she 's in the mood to compromise . jack : okay . my dad drew up this contract for one reason . traci : uh , mother was just as big a part of those documents as daddy was . jack : okay , dina obviously saw that ashley 's paternity would eventually come out . so she went to dad and asked him to draw up a contract to protect her . abby : mm , from something like your `` blood abbott `` clause . , traci : okay , the point is , both of our parents wanted ashley to share in dad 's legacy . jack : which is why billy and i want to offer her a very generous sum for the right to her patents . kyle : how generous ? abby : it does n't matter . my mom does n't want money . she just wants to be c.e.o . again . kyle : well , she 's not getting it , not after what she did to my dad . abby : o h , really , well , what about what your dad did to my mom ? kyle : no freakin ' way you can compare the two ! abby : your dad tried to push my mom out of her own family . kyle : that justifies her sick lie ? my dad almost lost it when he thought he was n't an abbott . abby : my mom did lose it when he told her she was n't `` abbott `` enough to be c.e.o . ! traci : no , no , no , no ! stop it ! both of you ! this is not helping . jack : we have to stick together if we 're gon na get through this . for whatever reason , ashley does n't feel that her contributions to jabot have been recognized . abby : `` whatever reason ? `` really ? traci : if dad had just told us about those documents years ago , we could have avoided all of this pain and heartache . jack : i 'm sure he would have . he had a stroke ! he did n't have a chance ! abby : all my mom ever wanted was to be seen as uncle jack 's equal . kyle : she just wanted to be john abbott 's daughter . abby : she is his daughter ! jack : she was his favorite daughter . abby : really ? is that what this is about ? you 're jealous , so you use her paternity against her to try to take away the one parent she felt ever cared for her ? traci : mother loved ashley , too . abby : aunt traci , you did n't hear her back at the house talking to dina . she said that she grew up feeling like her own mom did n't love her . she was convinced it 's because she 's ruined dina and john 's picture - perfect family . and you know what , your `` blood abbott `` clause , it confirmed her worst fear -- that she would never measure up because she was n't a real abbott . what you did to my mom is just as bad as what she did to you . but we all forgave you ! so why ca n't we just forgive my mother and give her the title of c.e.o . ? kyle : oh , i do n't know , maybe because she 's using extortion to force our hands ? abby : look , grandpa gave her those patents because he knew uncle jack would try to grab all the power . kyle : instead , ashley 's doing it . traci : all right , none of us are living up to daddy 's expectations . an , in my opinion , no member of this family should run jabot right now . i mean , look at us ! we 're fighting , we 're name - calling , we 're vying for control of daddy 's company . this is note exactly the legacy he left us . jack : no , dad would have been very disappointed . traci : we are abbotts , and the only way we 're going to survive this is start acting like it . i only hope it is n't too late . john : she loves you . ashley : all we did was fight . maybe i 'm the reason she left . john : your mother leaving had nothing to do with you . ashley : maybe not . but i bet she does n't miss me . john : i guarantee you she does . ashley : not as much as she misses jack . he 's her favorite . john : you 're hurt and angry . that 's why you 're saying these things . ashley : as mad as i am at her , i still want her to be at the science fair . john : i know you do . ashley : but now she 's gone , and it 's not just this one thing she 's gon na miss . she wo n't be here for my birthday , my sixth grade graduation , the mother- daughter tea ... she 's gon na miss everything .

[ cellphone rings ] there he is . senator palmer , do you have any good news for me ? john : you finish your homework ? jack : yeah . john : want to go hit the court , work on your backhand ? jack : i was wondering if maybe we could talk . about mom leaving . i -- i can tell you 're taking it pretty hard , so -- john : your mother made her choice . jack : yeah , w ell , i can see that you 're hurt , you know , and so am i , and ... just as much as ashley . john : ashley is a young girl . we 're men . jack : but ca n't we still feel sad and hurt ? john : do you remember the night your mother left ? jack : when we made root beer floats ? john : we talked , ma n to man , and you made a promise to be strong for your sisters . jack : i remember . john : time to live up to that promise . ashley 's having a hard time dealing with the absence of your mother . and traci -- even though she 's young , it 's affecting her , too . jack : it 's affecting all of us , dad . john : but you and i have to take charge . i have my company to run , and , soon , you 'll understand how much time and effort that takes . jack : i know how hard you work , dad , and someday i just want to be like you . john : well , you can start now . since i 'll be spen ding so much time at the office , i 'll need you to take the lead here at home.-look after your sisters . not feel sorry for yourself . understand ? jack : i understand . jack : ashley , i made a promise to dad to always protect you . i failed him . i know i hurt you , and i will regret it for the rest of my life . ashley : but not enough to make me c.e.o . billy : you really want to force your way to the top spot of jabot , do n't you ? ashley : as opposed to the noble way that you got in the top position , billy ? last blood abbott standing ? you know what , just for the record , embezzlement beats out lying to your brother any day of the week . billy : yeah , th ey both suck , and i 'm paying for it . traci : it does n't mean you can never been c.e.o . like i told the family , none of us should be running the company right now . kyle : i think john abbott would agree . ashley : god , you did n't even know him ! traci : ashley . kyle : it 's okay . she 's right . but i do n't think he intended for the documents he drew up to be used as a power grab . ashley : i do n't care what you think ! those document s are legal and binding . please stop . abby : mom , please . please . grandpa would hate what is going on here . ever since i was a little girl , you always taught me the values that he instilled in you -- honor , decency , love of family -- and you are going against everything he stood for . ashley : jack started it with that `` blood abbott `` clause . abby : no . it started way before then . it started when you were a little girl . mom , i heard you . i heard you talking to dina . you said that you grew up feeling like she never loved you as much as her other children . and when you found out that john was n't your biological father , it sent you into a tailspin that you never recovered from . mom , even if uncle jack had n't changed those bylaws , i do n't think it would have mattered . you never felt loved , you never felt respected , not until you found out what dina did for you . i know how much it matters to you . i saw the look on yo ur face . you finally felt like she loved you as much as her other children , that she loved you as much as she loved uncle jack and aunt traci . traci : whatever else you 're feeling right now , please know all of us love you and respect you . jack : it 's true , ashley . billy : i hope you know how i feel , ash . abby : mom , please . do n't make a decision out of anger that 's gon na hurt all of us , including you . traci : think of what daddy would want -- for this family to heal . ashley : [ sighs ] well , you 've definitely given me a lot to think about . i need a little time . abby : maybe i should go after her . traci : no . she said she needed time . let 's give it to her . jack : traci 's right . you both said everything that needed to be said . i do n't know , i felt like maybe i should have said more , should have told her i still loved her , but she did n't see open to -- god , how did we get here ? ! ashley and i have had our ups and downs for years . never like this . billy : jack . [ sighs ] i bet she would love to go back to the way things were just as bad as you . jack : oh , i 'm not so sure , buddy . billy : come on . she is going to real ize that her relationship with you is more important than any c.e.o . chair . jack : starting to sound like traci , the unfailing optimist . billy : well , i will take that as a compliment . abby : i 'm glad someone else is being optimistic besides aunt traci . she always is . billy : there 's a reason for it . come on , eve ry time we 've been through a rough moment , whether it was losing dad or colleen or delia , we 've always worked it out . and we 'll do the same this time . we 'll work through this tough moment . kyle : wish i shared your confidence . billy : it 's jack and ashley we 're talking about , okay ? they 've held this family together since they were young . they 've had to . jack : you mean because dina left . billy : that , an d traci was young , but jack and ashley had to fill the void . traci : no , actually , it was always just jack . you 're right , honey , i was a little girl , and i did n't understand everything , but i understood that . ashley was devastated when mother left , and i remember a certain science fair . ashley won first prize . mother was n't there , but jack was . and even when daddy had to go back to work , jack is the one who stayed and helped her celebrate . he got her a little cake with a blue ribbon on it . he sang ... `` for she 's a jolly good sister . `` abby : that is so sweet . traci : it 's so sweet . and jack was always there for us . billy : who was there for you ? jack : it was a different time . boys were n't suppo sed to show their emotions . traci : but you never complained . jack : dad needed me to be a man . abby : but you were just a kid , forced to be a grown - up . jack : what you working on ? ashley : science fair project . jack : if you need any help , i could definitely -- ashley : i don't . jack : i 'm talking , like , if you need any help with anything at all . ashley : like what ? jack : well , i saw you crying earlier , and i just thought if you needed somebody to talk to , then ... ashley : dad made me feel better . jack : yeah , he spends a lot of time doing that . ashley : that 's not true . jack : oh , come on , ash . you know you 're his favorite . he does n't go around calling me `` my beauty . `` ashley : very funny . besides ... you 're mom 's favorite . jack : [ sighs ] it 's too bad she did n't care about any of us enough to stick around . ashley : at least we still have dad . jack : i think things are gon na be different now . ashley : what are you talking about ? jack : i just think things are gon na change now that mom is gone . dad 's gon na be busy work ing and trying to be both parents , and he might not always be here to make you feel better . ashley : dad will always make time for me . jack : well , if he does n't , then i want to be there for you . ashley : you ? jack : yes . me . okay ? if you need anybody . it 's gon na get hard . i want you to be able to talk to me . ashley : you m ean it ? jack : yes . okay ? i 'm your big brother . i 'm gon na protect you . that 's my job . okay ? cane : michael 's appealing to the prison board to get you moved to a facility that is closer to home . mattie : yeah , and uncle devon is waiting to hear from his friend who 's a senator . dad said he might be able to get you released with an ankle monitor . lily : i would n't get your hopes up . mattie : why , has something happened ? lily : they told me to pack my personal belongings because they 're moving me after our visit . mattie : what ? ! cane : you know where you 're going ? lily : wait , i thought you told them . cane : i did n't want to say anything until we knew the transfer was happening . mattie : where are they sending you ? lily : lakewood correctional center . mattie : that 's hours away . lily : hey . this is for my safety . mattie : but we still have n't heard from uncle devon . lily : look , you know , i do n't want to waste time with that , okay ? let 's just tal k about how we 're gon na keep in touch , okay ? i know that i 'll be farther away , so we wo n't see each other as often , but we can write , you know ? we can talk on the phone . charlie : this sucks ! lily : hey . it 's not that bad . and i heard that there 's better food there . look , what matters is i will be safe . cane : right , guys ? that 's what matters the most , right ? mattie : i 'm gon na go to the media , get your story out there . lily : no , mattie , i know that you 're trying to help , but i need to stay under the radar at this new prison . neil : hey . lily : hey . no luck ? neil : devon did his best . devon : i 'm sorry . lily : you tried . devon : if it was n't for me , none of this would even be happening . lily : no , it 's not your fault . i 'm the one who let you down . neil : lily , nobody let anybody down , okay ? it was a difficult situation . in the end , we pull together . devon : and you 've always been right . it was an accident , and if i could go back and change things , i would . lily : it 's okay . we can't . cane : i would do anything i can to fix this . lily : i know . cane : i love you . lily : and that 's what gotten me through every obstacle we 've ever faced . and it 'll get us through this , too . traci : jack was our hero when we were kids , ashley 's and mine . jack : i did n't do that much . traci : oh , come on . do n't let him fool you . after mother left , he was like a second parent to us . helped us with our homework , he listened to our problems , and then when daddy was away on business , he was a mother and a father to us . jack : mamie was there , too . traci : yes , cooking and cleaning and caring , but you 're the one that made us feel safe . abby : you were only 15 . kyle : all i cared about at that age were girls and sports . billy : not much has changed . traci : [ chuckles ] your dad was n't too different than you . he would spend a lot of his spare time at the club playing tennis and flirting with pretty girls . but then all that changed . you were no longer than carefree boy . i always wondered if it was something daddy said to you . billy : i can hear him now . `` suck it up , jackie boy . be a man . `` jack : nah , it was n't like that . kyle : what was it like ? for you . you 've never told me abo ut that time in your life . jack : not much to tell . i did what i had to do . it was n't like i was deprived or anything . i lived in the abbott mansion , i had a nice car , i had money in my pocket . traci : but no one to talk to about what had just happened in your life . see , when you 're the youngest , the quiet one , you spend a lot of time observing the rest of the family . and i saw things -- things that you maybe do n't understand at the time , but i saw them . i watched daddy dote on ashley , give her all kinds of lavish attention . i do n't know , maybe she needed it at the time . i was off in my 8-year - old fantasy world believing our mother would come back . but you saw it , did n't you ? you must have been hurting so much . and i do n't remember one time when daddy comforted you . in fact , he acted like you did n't need him at all . but you did . jack : i was so jealous of you and ashley . you could be hurt and angry and sad about mother leaving us , dad never said it in so many words , but it was clear showing emotion was weakness , and men were never weak . hell , he did n't mean any harm . he actually did need my help . but he did that because i was the oldest . he needed me to be strong , so that 's what i decided to be . strong . and it was engrained in me . if i was the strong one , then i guess that made ashley the weak one . [ door opens ] [ door closes ] ashley : i 've made a decision . devon : i could n't get them to delay your departure . i 'm sorry . lily : it 's time . mattie : no ! neil : hey , baby girl . lily : dad . neil : mm . lily : [ sighs ] please take care of them , okay ? neil : you know i will . take care of yourself . lily : i promise . i love you . lily : [ laughs ] i remember . `` no words necessary . `` i love you , too . [ chuckles , sniffles ] hey , come here . listen , please -- please take care of each other , okay ? mattie : yeah , i 'll make sure charlie fills out his college applications . charlie : and i wo n't let mattie become a total bookworm . lily : i love you both so much . and i 'll be thinking of you every single day . mattie : mom ... lily : no , listen . remember the morning always comes after the night , okay ? come here . charlie : we love you . lily : i love you . lily : i 'm sorry . cane : no regrets . i 'm the luckiest man in the whole world to have you . and we 're gon na put our love or pause for a little while , but it 's never gon na stop . will you hold onto that ? lily : yeah . cane : you hold onto this too , baby . i 'll always be close . i 'll never be far . lily : i love you . cane : i love you . i love you . lily : please tell sam that i love him , okay ? and i 'll be home soon . cane : yeah . lily : i love you all , okay ? devon : i love you . charlie : i love you , too . ashley : it 's funny . i walk into the room , and suddenly i have all the power . but i spoke to a friend of mine earlier who i admire and respect , and he suggested that maybe i would n't find it that satisfying , you know ? maybe i could find the respect and the validation that i crave some other way other than being c.e.o . jack : i knew you would see reason . ashley : yeah , well , i considered what he said , and a lot of other factors , and , um ... i realized that i just ca n't take a back seat , and i certainly ca n't answer to whoever might be c.e.o . jack : no , no , no , you would have a vital role here . ashley : and there was a time that i might believe those words coming out of your mouth , but not anymore , jack . jack : ashley . ashley . ashley : you 're not walk over me ever again . i do n't entirely blame you , though , you know . i know that our father raised you to the heir apparent , and even though i was smart and driven and , frankly , more talented than you , i was n't john abbott jr . [ laughs ] i was n't even an abbott . traci : yes , you are . ashley : saying it does n't make it so . jack : i 'm not gon na change my mind about you becoming c.e.o . ashley : i did n't think you would , not for one single second . that 's why i 'm officially turning down your offer . billy : and what ? traci : yes . what does that mean ? what does that mean , jackie ? jack : it means mom 's walking away from us . ashley : from the family she pretended to love . traci : i do n't get it . ashley : what 's to get ? she 's leaving us and genoa city . ashley : i 'm walking away from jabot . and this family that 's pretending to forgive me just because they want something from me . you 're not g onna get it . i 'm taking those patents , and i 'm leaving genoa city . next week on `` the young and the restless `` ... ashley : i 've booked a f light to paris tonight , and i 'm going to be on it .
devon tries his best to call in favors to stop lily 's transfer to a prison four hours away but he is unable to stop the transfer so lily says a tearful and emotional goodbye to her family . jack , traci , billy , abby , and kyle come up with a very generous offer for ashley 's patents including a raise , bigger r & d budget and royalties on the sale of all the products she developed but ashley does n't want that and decides to take some time to decide what to do . traci and abby make ashley see that their father would n't want their family fighting over the company . ashley takes some time to think and announces to the family that she is taking her patents and moving to paris .
<s>[INST] [ previously_on ] cane : you know what lily 's like -- once she gets invested , she does n't back down . neil : now she 's got a prison gang after her ! cane : all she had to do was lay low . lily : she wants to move me to a new prison . jack : i thought we could sit and make you a generous and appropriate offer for your patents . ashley : i do n't want your money . jack : then what is it you want ? ashley : i want to reinstated as c.e.o . traci : ashley was always daddy 's favorite , and jack was always working overtime just to feel worthy of the name john abbott jr . billy : the more things change ... ashley : i 've decided on a project for the science fair . john : are you going with how music affects plants ? ashley : no . john : i got it . how to make the best chocolate chip cookie ever . ashley : no , dad . my experiment 's chemistry - based . john : chemistry - based ? maybe you could ask jack for help . ashley : i do not need jack 's help . i 'm gon na show how to make soap from natural ingredients . john : that 's pretty ambitious for a sixth grader . ashley : i can do it . john : i 'm sure you can , my beauty . ashley : a boy will probably win first prize , anyway . they do every year . john : it 's time to change that . ashley : you really think i can ? john : i know you can . you are a smart young lady . all right ? when you win that blue ribbon , they 'll see how smart . ashley : everyone except mom . john : i 'm sorry she wo n't be there . ashley : i thought if i worked really hard and did the best i could , mom would love me just as much as she loves jack . but now she 's not even here . dina : thank you . ashley : could i have a moment alone with her ? abby : of course . i 'll be right back . dina : uh , do i know you ? ashley : yes . i 'm ashley . dina : oh ! i have beautiful daughter named ashley . ashley : oh . i know you do . dina : would you like some tea ? i 'll get mamie t o get you some . ashley : no , i just -- i just wanted to talk to you for a minute . actually , i wanted to thank you . dina : thank me ? for what ? ashley : well , sometimes relationships with mothers and daughters can be so tricky . dina : well , i tried to be a good mom . ashley : i know . i just always thought that you loved jackie more than me . dina : oh , well , jackie is special . ashley : that 's what you said all the time . dina : [ chuckles ] ashley : in my mind , that just meant that somehow i did n't measure up . and then , when i found out that brent davis was my father , it made perfect sense . of course you would love jack and traci more , because they were john 's children . dina : oh . they are all my children . ashley : i know that now . you were looking out for me back then when you had daddy draw up those documents that leave me the rights to the patents of all the formulas that i created . dina : i just do n't -- do n't remember , dear . ashley : i know . it does n't matter because you did it . you made sure that my paternity could n't be used against me to cut me out of my share of daddy 's legacy . i mean , you -- you put that in writing for me . dina : oh , sweetheart , you 're crying . ashley : they 're happy tears . dina : oh , i 'm glad . ashley : you know , for so long , i doubted that you loved me , and i see that i was wrong . you did love me . billy : c.e.o . like we can just snap our fingers and make that happen ? jack : ashley knows we have enough votes in this family to put her back in charge . billy : are you thinking about doing that , jack ? jack : i am not going to let her use a document that was written decades ago to force her back into this office . billy : why did n't dad just tell you about the document , or ashley ? jack : there is no point in trying to figure that out . we have to find some way to get ashley to back down , to accept something other than the position as c.e.o . in compensation for her patents . billy : and you think that 's possible ? jack : everyone has a price . we just have to figure out what ashley 's is . cane : hey . hey . hey . hey . how are you ? okay . okay , okay , okay , okay . um , well , i got a call saying you needed to see me right away . are you okay ? lily : i 'm fine , yeah . cane : okay , so what is it about ? is this about th e transfer ? lily : it officially went through . cane : where are they moving you to ? lily : lakewood correctional center . cane : i do n't understand . what 's the difference between that and this place ? i mean , the criminals there are just as hard as they are here . lily : and it 's four hours away . cane : you know , they 're doing this to move you to the farthest prison they can . lily : i mean , seeing my family is what 's helped me survive this , and if i 'm hundreds of miles from you -- cane : it 's not gon na happen . it 's not gon na happen , okay ? i 'm gon na do everything i can to stop this . okay ? all right . cane : hey . lily : hey . cane : hey . all right , um , so devon is calling in a favor to try and get the transfer stopped , okay ? lily : do you think he can ? cane : i do n't know , but , you know , he 's trying every resource he has , so we just have to hope for the best . lily : and prepare for the worst . cane : this is so unfair , i know . i mean , there 's -- there 's got to be another way that they can protect you . lily : you know what 's ironic is that this is all happening because i befriended someone . and if i had just done that with hilary instead of always attacking her ... cane : hey , hey , hey . do n't do that . do n't do it . do n't do it . lily : no , it 's true . my animosity is what killed hilary and her baby . and now i 'm paying the price for it . i 'm just sorry tht m y family has to pay for my mistakes . cane : do n't worry about us . okay ? do n't do that . lily : yeah , well , you might as well tell me not to breathe . cane : hey . this is not over . lily : i think you should tell mattie and charlie 's what 's going on . cane : okay . you hang in there , okay ? i love you . lily : i love you . cane : okay . devon : hi , could you tell senator palmer that devon hamilton is calling ? thank you , i 'll hold . nate : you think he 'll be able to help lily ? devon : i 've been a staunch supporter of his for years . neil : well , politicians -- they like to make their donors happy . nate : well , i think it 's crazy that you have to pull strings like this . why do n't they just move the inmates who are threatening lily ? neil : michael said he 's looking into it . i 'm gon na give him a call and see if he found anything out . devon : senator ! i 'm well , thank you . did you happen to get my e - mail ? and did you have a chance to look over my sister 's case ? that 's correct . there was no drugs or alcohol involved , she was n't using her cellphone . she has no priors whatsoever . and it 's a bit ridiculous that they even put her in such a dangerous population , and now she 's being threatened . well , senator , i 've been supporting you for a while now because i believe that you fight for what is right . and that 's really all i 'm asking you to do here . well , i do n't think that an early release is unreasonable . well , sir , if i may , my wife and unborn child were killed in that accident , so if anyone would want to see lily punished , it 'd be me . but this is not the way to do it . it 's just wrong . she 's a good person who made a mistake , and i do n't believe that she should be punished in this way . no , i 'm not -- i do n't think that she should just walk . i think that she could be confined to her home , she could be monitored by having to wear an ankle bracelet , or , at the very least , transferred to a less secure facility . oh , no , no , no . senator -- not at all . i would never ask you to do anything that even hints of impropriety . yeah , that 's right . i 'm simply asking if you can just see what you can do , if anything at all . i appreciate that . i really do . and i 'll be looking forward to your call . nate : any luck ? neil : michael talked to the warden . she insists there 's no thing she can do about moving the other inmates . how about you ? devon : senator palmer said he 's going to do his best . neil : i hope that 's enough . traci : you guys look terrible . billy : yeah , we did n't exactly get our beauty sleep last night . jack : we were here all night trying to come up with a solution we can all live with . kyle : you really think that 's a thing ? abby : i just saw my mom . i do n't think she 's in the mood to compromise . jack : okay . my dad drew up this contract for one reason . traci : uh , mother was just as big a part of those documents as daddy was . jack : okay , dina obviously saw that ashley 's paternity would eventually come out . so she went to dad and asked him to draw up a contract to protect her . abby : mm , from something like your `` blood abbott `` clause . , traci : okay , the point is , both of our parents wanted ashley to share in dad 's legacy . jack : which is why billy and i want to offer her a very generous sum for the right to her patents . kyle : how generous ? abby : it does n't matter . my mom does n't want money . she just wants to be c.e.o . again . kyle : well , she 's not getting it , not after what she did to my dad . abby : o h , really , well , what about what your dad did to my mom ? kyle : no freakin ' way you can compare the two ! abby : your dad tried to push my mom out of her own family . kyle : that justifies her sick lie ? my dad almost lost it when he thought he was n't an abbott . abby : my mom did lose it when he told her she was n't `` abbott `` enough to be c.e.o . ! traci : no , no , no , no ! stop it ! both of you ! this is not helping . jack : we have to stick together if we 're gon na get through this . for whatever reason , ashley does n't feel that her contributions to jabot have been recognized . abby : `` whatever reason ? `` really ? traci : if dad had just told us about those documents years ago , we could have avoided all of this pain and heartache . jack : i 'm sure he would have . he had a stroke ! he did n't have a chance ! abby : all my mom ever wanted was to be seen as uncle jack 's equal . kyle : she just wanted to be john abbott 's daughter . abby : she is his daughter ! jack : she was his favorite daughter . abby : really ? is that what this is about ? you 're jealous , so you use her paternity against her to try to take away the one parent she felt ever cared for her ? traci : mother loved ashley , too . abby : aunt traci , you did n't hear her back at the house talking to dina . she said that she grew up feeling like her own mom did n't love her . she was convinced it 's because she 's ruined dina and john 's picture - perfect family . and you know what , your `` blood abbott `` clause , it confirmed her worst fear -- that she would never measure up because she was n't a real abbott . what you did to my mom is just as bad as what she did to you . but we all forgave you ! so why ca n't we just forgive my mother and give her the title of c.e.o . ? kyle : oh , i do n't know , maybe because she 's using extortion to force our hands ? abby : look , grandpa gave her those patents because he knew uncle jack would try to grab all the power . kyle : instead , ashley 's doing it . traci : all right , none of us are living up to daddy 's expectations . an , in my opinion , no member of this family should run jabot right now . i mean , look at us ! we 're fighting , we 're name - calling , we 're vying for control of daddy 's company . this is note exactly the legacy he left us . jack : no , dad would have been very disappointed . traci : we are abbotts , and the only way we 're going to survive this is start acting like it . i only hope it is n't too late . john : she loves you . ashley : all we did was fight . maybe i 'm the reason she left . john : your mother leaving had nothing to do with you . ashley : maybe not . but i bet she does n't miss me . john : i guarantee you she does . ashley : not as much as she misses jack . he 's her favorite . john : you 're hurt and angry . that 's why you 're saying these things . ashley : as mad as i am at her , i still want her to be at the science fair . john : i know you do . ashley : but now she 's gone , and it 's not just this one thing she 's gon na miss . she wo n't be here for my birthday , my sixth grade graduation , the mother- daughter tea ... she 's gon na miss everything . [ sobbing ] she s ' gon na miss everything , daddy . she 's gon na miss everything . john : oh , my beauty . oh , my beauty , my beauty . it 's going to be okay . i 'll always be here for you . i promise . ashley : [ cries ] jack : come on in . have a seat . ashley : hi . ca n't start the party without the guest of honor . so , i take it this is about reinstating me as c.e.o . jack : well , we have all been discussing that on both a professional and personal perspective . ashley : okay , sounds very civil . jack : every person in this room wants to honor dad 's wishes where you 're concerned . ashley : okay , well , you are legally bound to , jack . jack : dad obviously valued your considerable contributions to this company and wanted you to be compensated fairly . so we have all decided to make this offer for complete rights to your patents . billy : in additional , you 'll get royalties on every future sale on any product that you developed . ashley : yeah , that 's also what the contract says . jack : it goes without saying , we would also love for you to continue to run r & d with an increased salary and budget , of course . kyle : you 'd also get royalties on any new products you create . jack : which would make you the most highly compensated person in this company . by a considerable margin . ashley : but this is n't about money , jack , and you know that . but in true jack abbott fashion , you 're trying to buy me off . abby : we all agreed to this . ashley : you all agreed that i do n't deserve to be c.e.o . ? abby : that 's not what i was gon na say . ashley : it 's okay , honey . this has -- it 's got you written all over it , jack , when you are willing to cripple jabot financially just to keep me from being c.e.o . and the rest of you thoroughbred abbotts went along for the ride , as usual . you , billy , the embezzler , you , kyle , who used your own uncle 's gambling addiction to bring him down , and you , jack , are single - handedly responsible for putting jabot in the hands of victor newman for how many years ? but what i did is so bad that it precludes me from being c.e.o . okay . that just tells me how much you respect me , jackie . or should i say how little . charlie : if mom has n't done anything wrong , then why are they moving her ? cane : because standing up to those bullies has put your mom in danger . mattie : then transfer the prisoners that are threatening her . cane : b aby , it 's not that easy , all right ? we 're working on other things . mattie : did you think of any other solutions ? cane : we 're hopeful , okay ? mattie : dad , you said you 'd be honest with us . cane : baby , i 'm trying to be honest with you . i do n't know what 's gon na happen , okay , and i did n't want to say anything until we knew because i did n't want to upset you , but your mum insisted . charlie : why would we be upset if mom 's getting moved for her own protection ? cane : okay . mattie : because there 's a good chance that the prison that they 'll transfer her to wo n't be as close as walworth . charlie : is that true , dad ? cane : all right , look , your uncle devon and michael baldwin are trying to make sure that does n't happen , okay ? but what is the most important thing right now is that your mum is safe . so i say we 'll wai t for all that to play out , we just go and visit her as much as we can , all right ? mattie : okay , great . can we go now , then ? cane : yeah . that 's a great idea . come on , let 's go . nate : okay , thank you . just spoke to the prison doctor . he assured that lily 's in good physical condition , and , under the circumstances , that her mental state is solid , too . devon : well , she 's strong , but , honestly , i do n't know how much more she can take than this . i really don't . nate : i mean , i could speak to victor . i mean , he 's grateful for all i 've done for him and nikki . devon : i 've already talked to him , and i 've already reached out to anybody that he would contact , so senator palmer 's our last hope . nate : well , hopefully he 'll come through . devon : i told neil i 'd give him a call as soon as i heard anything . [ cellphone rings ] there he is . senator palmer , do you have any good news for me ? john : you finish your homework ? jack : yeah . john : want to go hit the court , work on your backhand ? jack : i was wondering if maybe we could talk . about mom leaving . i -- i can tell you 're taking it pretty hard , so -- john : your mother made her choice . jack : yeah , w ell , i can see that you 're hurt , you know , and so am i , and ... just as much as ashley . john : ashley is a young girl . we 're men . jack : but ca n't we still feel sad and hurt ? john : do you remember the night your mother left ? jack : when we made root beer floats ? john : we talked , ma n to man , and you made a promise to be strong for your sisters . jack : i remember . john : time to live up to that promise . ashley 's having a hard time dealing with the absence of your mother . and traci -- even though she 's young , it 's affecting her , too . jack : it 's affecting all of us , dad . john : but you and i have to take charge . i have my company to run , and , soon , you 'll understand how much time and effort that takes . jack : i know how hard you work , dad , and someday i just want to be like you . john : well , you can start now . since i 'll be spen ding so much time at the office , i 'll need you to take the lead here at home.-look after your sisters . not feel sorry for yourself . understand ? jack : i understand . jack : ashley , i made a promise to dad to always protect you . i failed him . i know i hurt you , and i will regret it for the rest of my life . ashley : but not enough to make me c.e.o . billy : you really want to force your way to the top spot of jabot , do n't you ? ashley : as opposed to the noble way that you got in the top position , billy ? last blood abbott standing ? you know what , just for the record , embezzlement beats out lying to your brother any day of the week . billy : yeah , th ey both suck , and i 'm paying for it . traci : it does n't mean you can never been c.e.o . like i told the family , none of us should be running the company right now . kyle : i think john abbott would agree . ashley : god , you did n't even know him ! traci : ashley . kyle : it 's okay . she 's right . but i do n't think he intended for the documents he drew up to be used as a power grab . ashley : i do n't care what you think ! those document s are legal and binding . please stop . abby : mom , please . please . grandpa would hate what is going on here . ever since i was a little girl , you always taught me the values that he instilled in you -- honor , decency , love of family -- and you are going against everything he stood for . ashley : jack started it with that `` blood abbott `` clause . abby : no . it started way before then . it started when you were a little girl . mom , i heard you . i heard you talking to dina . you said that you grew up feeling like she never loved you as much as her other children . and when you found out that john was n't your biological father , it sent you into a tailspin that you never recovered from . mom , even if uncle jack had n't changed those bylaws , i do n't think it would have mattered . you never felt loved , you never felt respected , not until you found out what dina did for you . i know how much it matters to you . i saw the look on yo ur face . you finally felt like she loved you as much as her other children , that she loved you as much as she loved uncle jack and aunt traci . traci : whatever else you 're feeling right now , please know all of us love you and respect you . jack : it 's true , ashley . billy : i hope you know how i feel , ash . abby : mom , please . do n't make a decision out of anger that 's gon na hurt all of us , including you . traci : think of what daddy would want -- for this family to heal . ashley : [ sighs ] well , you 've definitely given me a lot to think about . i need a little time . abby : maybe i should go after her . traci : no . she said she needed time . let 's give it to her . jack : traci 's right . you both said everything that needed to be said . i do n't know , i felt like maybe i should have said more , should have told her i still loved her , but she did n't see open to -- god , how did we get here ? ! ashley and i have had our ups and downs for years . never like this . billy : jack . [ sighs ] i bet she would love to go back to the way things were just as bad as you . jack : oh , i 'm not so sure , buddy . billy : come on . she is going to real ize that her relationship with you is more important than any c.e.o . chair . jack : starting to sound like traci , the unfailing optimist . billy : well , i will take that as a compliment . abby : i 'm glad someone else is being optimistic besides aunt traci . she always is . billy : there 's a reason for it . come on , eve ry time we 've been through a rough moment , whether it was losing dad or colleen or delia , we 've always worked it out . and we 'll do the same this time . we 'll work through this tough moment . kyle : wish i shared your confidence . billy : it 's jack and ashley we 're talking about , okay ? they 've held this family together since they were young . they 've had to . jack : you mean because dina left . billy : that , an d traci was young , but jack and ashley had to fill the void . traci : no , actually , it was always just jack . you 're right , honey , i was a little girl , and i did n't understand everything , but i understood that . ashley was devastated when mother left , and i remember a certain science fair . ashley won first prize . mother was n't there , but jack was . and even when daddy had to go back to work , jack is the one who stayed and helped her celebrate . he got her a little cake with a blue ribbon on it . he sang ... `` for she 's a jolly good sister . `` abby : that is so sweet . traci : it 's so sweet . and jack was always there for us . billy : who was there for you ? jack : it was a different time . boys were n't suppo sed to show their emotions . traci : but you never complained . jack : dad needed me to be a man . abby : but you were just a kid , forced to be a grown - up . jack : what you working on ? ashley : science fair project . jack : if you need any help , i could definitely -- ashley : i don't . jack : i 'm talking , like , if you need any help with anything at all . ashley : like what ? jack : well , i saw you crying earlier , and i just thought if you needed somebody to talk to , then ... ashley : dad made me feel better . jack : yeah , he spends a lot of time doing that . ashley : that 's not true . jack : oh , come on , ash . you know you 're his favorite . he does n't go around calling me `` my beauty . `` ashley : very funny . besides ... you 're mom 's favorite . jack : [ sighs ] it 's too bad she did n't care about any of us enough to stick around . ashley : at least we still have dad . jack : i think things are gon na be different now . ashley : what are you talking about ? jack : i just think things are gon na change now that mom is gone . dad 's gon na be busy work ing and trying to be both parents , and he might not always be here to make you feel better . ashley : dad will always make time for me . jack : well , if he does n't , then i want to be there for you . ashley : you ? jack : yes . me . okay ? if you need anybody . it 's gon na get hard . i want you to be able to talk to me . ashley : you m ean it ? jack : yes . okay ? i 'm your big brother . i 'm gon na protect you . that 's my job . okay ?

lily : they told me to pack my personal belongings because they 're moving me after our visit . mattie : what ? ! cane : you know where you 're going ? lily : wait , i thought you told them . cane : i did n't want to say anything until we knew the transfer was happening . mattie : where are they sending you ? lily : lakewood correctional center . mattie : that 's hours away . lily : hey . this is for my safety . mattie : but we still have n't heard from uncle devon . lily : look , you know , i do n't want to waste time with that , okay ? let 's just tal k about how we 're gon na keep in touch , okay ? i know that i 'll be farther away , so we wo n't see each other as often , but we can write , you know ? we can talk on the phone . charlie : this sucks ! lily : hey . it 's not that bad . and i heard that there 's better food there . look , what matters is i will be safe . cane : right , guys ? that 's what matters the most , right ? mattie : i 'm gon na go to the media , get your story out there . lily : no , mattie , i know that you 're trying to help , but i need to stay under the radar at this new prison . neil : hey . lily : hey . no luck ? neil : devon did his best . devon : i 'm sorry . lily : you tried . devon : if it was n't for me , none of this would even be happening . lily : no , it 's not your fault . i 'm the one who let you down . neil : lily , nobody let anybody down , okay ? it was a difficult situation . in the end , we pull together . devon : and you 've always been right . it was an accident , and if i could go back and change things , i would . lily : it 's okay . we can't . cane : i would do anything i can to fix this . lily : i know . cane : i love you . lily : and that 's what gotten me through every obstacle we 've ever faced . and it 'll get us through this , too . traci : jack was our hero when we were kids , ashley 's and mine . jack : i did n't do that much . traci : oh , come on . do n't let him fool you . after mother left , he was like a second parent to us . helped us with our homework , he listened to our problems , and then when daddy was away on business , he was a mother and a father to us . jack : mamie was there , too . traci : yes , cooking and cleaning and caring , but you 're the one that made us feel safe . abby : you were only 15 . kyle : all i cared about at that age were girls and sports . billy : not much has changed . traci : [ chuckles ] your dad was n't too different than you . he would spend a lot of his spare time at the club playing tennis and flirting with pretty girls . but then all that changed . you were no longer than carefree boy . i always wondered if it was something daddy said to you . billy : i can hear him now . `` suck it up , jackie boy . be a man . `` jack : nah , it was n't like that . kyle : what was it like ? for you . you 've never told me abo ut that time in your life . jack : not much to tell . i did what i had to do . it was n't like i was deprived or anything . i lived in the abbott mansion , i had a nice car , i had money in my pocket . traci : but no one to talk to about what had just happened in your life . see , when you 're the youngest , the quiet one , you spend a lot of time observing the rest of the family . and i saw things -- things that you maybe do n't understand at the time , but i saw them . i watched daddy dote on ashley , give her all kinds of lavish attention . i do n't know , maybe she needed it at the time . i was off in my 8-year - old fantasy world believing our mother would come back . but you saw it , did n't you ? you must have been hurting so much . and i do n't remember one time when daddy comforted you . in fact , he acted like you did n't need him at all . but you did . jack : i was so jealous of you and ashley . you could be hurt and angry and sad about mother leaving us , dad never said it in so many words , but it was clear showing emotion was weakness , and men were never weak . hell , he did n't mean any harm . he actually did need my help . but he did that because i was the oldest . he needed me to be strong , so that 's what i decided to be . strong . and it was engrained in me . if i was the strong one , then i guess that made ashley the weak one . [ door opens ] [ door closes ] ashley : i 've made a decision . devon : i could n't get them to delay your departure . i 'm sorry . lily : it 's time . mattie : no ! neil : hey , baby girl . lily : dad . neil : mm . lily : [ sighs ] please take care of them , okay ? neil : you know i will . take care of yourself . lily : i promise . i love you . lily : [ laughs ] i remember . `` no words necessary . `` i love you , too .

ivy : okay , then how about respecting yourself ? maya : what did you just say to me ? ridge : what are you -- why -- why -- why are you looking at me like that ? no , i - i 'm not gon na deny that what caroline and i had was special . when we were designing , we were creating stuff , it was -- it was magical . it really was , but -- but -- but things are different now . things are different now . ivy : maya , you ca n't feel good about this -- chasing a married man . maya : do n't you tell me how i should feel . you do n't know anything about me . ivy : rick is hurting . yes , he took caroline back , but i 'm pretty sure he has n't forgiven her . he needs time to do that . and that 's gon na be very difficult for him if you are constantly around , interfering . maya : am not gon na turn rick away when he needs me . i love him much more than caroline ever could . ivy : yeah , but you two are n't together . maya : we will be . ivy : did rick tell you that ? maya : rick -- rick is n't like the rest of you . he has never gotten the respect that he deserves -- not from his father and not from ridge . caroline was the last straw . ivy : what does that mean ? maya : it means you better keep your mouth shut or else you 'll be boomeranging back to australia faster than you can say didgeridoo . rick has worked too hard to let some nosy goody - goody jeopardize this for him . ivy : maya , i 'm not trying to hurt him . i am concerned for him . maya : concerned that he 'll end up with someone like me ? ivy : no . maya : you know , the good life is n't reserved for forresters . i work hard at this company . i contribute . would it be so bad if i became part of the family ? ivy : [ sighs ] wow . maya : rick has n't dropped the hammer yet , but you mark my words . sooner or later , his relationship with caroline will end . caroline : we 're ready for this , rick . rick : we just got back together . caroline : right , and ... we got through it . we survived the crisis . it just proves that our love is stronger than anything or anyone . and that love can make a baby . rick : [ sighs ] why do n't -- why do n't we talk about this tomorrow ? caroline : or we do n't have to talk at all . do we ? rick : you know , caroline , this is a big decision . and i 'm just -- i 'm beat . i 'm really beat right now . i 'm tired . caroline : rick , please . not again . rick : i 'm sorry , caroline . i 'm just tired , okay ?

harley : olivia , you may have the business sense , but when it comes to people , i 'm on it , okay ? we have to make spaulding look bad . so , we have to get all the stockholders and all the potential stockholders to turn against them , and i say company is a great rallying point for that . olivia : no offense , but it 's a little restaurant . we 're talking about a company that makes multi - millions of dollars . harley : i would n't expect you to understand about family ... bill : okay , ladies . ladies . ladies . let 's ... okay , all this bickering is hurting my old tum- tum . all right , we all want the same thing , right ? take spauldings down . harley : right . bill : right . olivia : right . bill : right . olivia : so , tell harley why her plan is not viable . bill : ca n't do that , olivia , because i happen to think she 's right . tony : hey , michelle . michelle : tony . tony : what ? michelle : you scared me . tony : i saw you pull in . what are you doing here ? you want the rest of your stuff ? michelle : yeah . what are you doing here ? tony : well , i ... the house is mine now . i bought it from danny . it sounds a little crazy , but it actually makes a lot of sense . michelle : wow . i guess danny was right . you really do want everything he has . tony : look , michelle , i bought this house for one reason , okay ? to help put some cash in danny 's pocket . all right ? now when he gets back on his feet and he 's working , he 's got a paying gig , i told him that he could buy the house back from me . that was the deal that we made , you know ? i mean , it 's like , you know , you try to do something nice ... in fact , i hate this place . michelle : whoa , whoa . okay , i was kidding . i was kidding you . i probably like this place less than you do , but i know that it means a lot to danny , so i think that what you did was really nice . tony : well , at least someone sees it that way . michelle : you know , the way you were going on and on like that , it seemed like you really thought i was serious . did you ? tony : you know , i 'm tired of hearing that from people . i 've been told that all my life . michelle : okay . all right . sore subject . tony : yeah . michelle : duly noted . i 'm going over to the lighthouse now . do you want to come ? i 'm going to check out the drawings the designer did and make some notes . tony : it 's a waste of time . i mean , ross is still blocking the permit . why would you go ? michelle : tony ... you just ... you know , you 've got to forget about the stupid permits . the only way this place is going to happen is if we make it happen . so , going to come with me ? because i have some great ideas . tony : ( laughs ) well , unfortunately , you 're going to have to do it on your own because i have a lot of stuff to do around here . michelle : oh , what stuff ? tony : i 've got stuff to do . go . go on , get out of here . go on . michelle : okay . your loss . buzz : first phillip pulls a sneak attack on company . then he takes over the local station so honest reporters like you ca n't get the word out . i mean , that 's the definition of sleaze . reva : well , he wo n't get away with this . buzz : ( breathing heavily ) : no , he won't . excuse me . reva : what do you say we talk about stories that we can do ? sandy : okay . sounds good to me . reva : what we have to start with is some hard research . you know , facts and figures about how many kids actually out there have found their biological parents . do a show . the adoption show . sandy : yeah . yeah , you know , we do n't have the okay from phillip on that . reva : well , it does n't challenge phillip 's power base at all . we 're going to do this show , whether he likes it or not . sandy : you know you 're asking for trouble , reva . reva : from phillip or from you ? look , i know that you do n't like the idea of this show , but at least i 've gotten past the idea of you being an interviewee . you know , on camera ? and all i really need from you is your insight and your ideas about the whole thing . sandy : if i do n't want to give them , what , am i fired ? reva : sandy , there are thousands of kids out there searching for their biological mothers , and then there are thousands out there who have found them just like you . this is a ... it 's a rich human topic and i think it 's worth doing . sandy : knock yourself out . do it without me . reva : where are you going ? sandy : i have an appointment i forgot about . bill : okay , this is n't just about saving company , okay ? olivia : no , exactly . we have bigger fish to fry . bill : but any loss for phillip is a win for us , especially a public one . olivia : all right , fine . that makes sense , but can we keep our eye on the bigger picture , please ? bill : always . olivia : so what do we do ? do we print more lovely flyers and little `` save company `` buttons and hand them out ? what ? harley : no . i will let my family handle that stuff . defending ourselves is important , but so is being on the offensive , which is where we come in . we 're going to take the fight to phillip . bill : a girl after your own heart , is n't she ? olivia : what does that mean ? harley : it means that i 've already got mel boudreau working on getting the applications that phillip filed to secure eminent domain . bill : has she had any luck ? harley : of course not . it 's the same thing every day : `` it 's in the mail , it 's in the mail . `` olivia : so what ? so what ? you 're a private detective . why do n't you just find the documents another way ? harley : you 're right . you 're right . i need to take this a step further . i 'm not going to play by their rules . olivia : who is she calling ? bill : i have no idea , but she 's got an evil look in her eye . harley : spaulding legal department , please . hello , this is stacey collier , mark berkowitz 's assistant at berkowitz smith hoyt and weintraub in new york city . who am i speaking with ? hello , alice . yes , we have some confidential contracts en route to your office via air courier . they need to be hand delivered to your chief counsel and signed by him asap . do you have any idea where he 'll be in the next half hour ? perfect . thank you so very much . he 's at the spaulding mansion right now . bill : ( laughs ) very good . olivia : okay , so how does that help us ? harley : it helps us because i am going to threaten to shove him face first into the pool unless he gives me the stupid papers . or i could just steal his briefcase . olivia : okay , it 's working for me . now it 's working for me . while you 're there , why do n't you corral some servants and just see if they know what phillip is up to ? harley : oh , so now you like my little talking - to - the- servants idea . olivia : it was a good idea , okay ? i just needed time to get my head around it . harley : all right , guys . i 'm heading to the big house . bill : all right . now , are you sure you 're going to be all right through this alone ? harley : oh , please . i am looking forward to putting the screws to this creep . excuse me ? gus : hilda . harley : black , two sugars . gus : yeah , i said i did n't want another cup of coffee . harley : aw , heck , i knew you did n't mean that . just like you di't mean a lot of the things you 've said . living here , in the mausoleum ? ugh , sterile city . now you and me and the kids in my place ? that was nice . lots of laughter , love . well , at least you 've got the memories , right ? too bad that 's all you 've got . unless you 've had a change of heart ? unless you want us back enough to sacrifice for us . gus : of course i do . you 're killing me here . you 're making me choose between my family and your family . harley : please . there 's no contest . do you want me back or do n't you ? gus : of course i want you back . of course i do . of course i do . buzz : no . no one from spaulding enterprises is to set foot on my property . billy : buzz , who was that ? buzz : ( breathing heavily ) : phillip 's structural engineer . he says he needs access to this property prior to demolition . not while i 'm kicking . billy : hey , you know , i 've been giving your situation a lot of thought here , and i think you can beat phillip at his own game . josh and i came up with an idea . how about you let josh and i relocate you ? buzz : relocate me ? billy : we pick the whole place up lock , stock and tomahawk , and we set it down wherever you want . and i 've got a couple of good places in mind . buzz : you are a beautiful man , but no one is chasing me out of here , and that 's it . billy : look , i appreciate your spunk and i think fighting back is good , but the fact is ... buzz : no , the fact is , when the diner went down , when it burned down for the second time , i started again from scratch . this is it . i do n't plan to do that again . phillip can build his ... you know , his mall , whatever the heck he wants to build , someplace else ! billy : hey , you know , the truth of the matter is that the state passed on it and the governor signed off on it . he 's got a lot of money . no , you can stall him , but odds say that he 's going to win . phillip : he 's right , buzz . buzz : there 's the door . use it . phillip : i can see you 're not feeling sociable . that 's all right . i 'll seat myself . billy : why do n't you just leave ? phillip : you 're turning away a paying customer ? buzz : this is still my property . i want you to leave . either do it of your own free will or i will make it happen . phillip : you 're threatening me . buzz : i know what you 're thinking : `` he 's old , he 's out of shape , i 'll take him out with one punch . `` before you make a stupid mistake , chew on this : i am against the wall . i have nothing to lose . you do . so bring it on . come on , i 'm begging you . reva : so , your appointment was with a pool cue . sandy : it 's a good way to blow off some steam . reva : steam that would otherwise be directed at me ? sandy : i 'm not mad at you , reva . i just do n't feel like talking . reva : well , then let 's not talk . let 's play . eight ball . it 's the only game i know . ( laughs ) but i should warn you , i 'm not very good at it . sandy : oh , neither am i . reva : right . sandy : right . reva : no , i 'm serious , i 'm really bad at this . ( laughs ) sandy : so am i . reva : ( laughs ) yeah , right . sandy : right . reva : okay , here 's the deal . whoever sinks a ball gets to ask the other person a question . sandy : i thought we were n't doing the talking . reva : we 're not talking . we 're asking and answering , questioning and answering . sandy : could you split that hair any finer ? reva : oh , you know what ? you 're smiling . that must mean you want to play . sandy : okay . if you buy me lunch . reva : and why am i supposed to buy you lunch ? sandy : because the losers always buy . and you 're going to lose . reva : ooh , baby . them 's fighting words . michelle : i knew you wanted to come with me . see , you love this place as much as i do . what the ... ? tony : hey ! hey ! who are you guys , huh ? guy # 1 : you live here ? michelle : this is private property , okay ? it 's my property . i 'll ask the questions . guy # 2 : what 's going on with the construction upstairs ? michelle : i 'm building a restaurant and a club , not that it 's any of your business . guy # 1 : that 's not a good idea . tony : no , what 's not a good idea is you being here , man . guy # 2 : keep it up and you could get hurt . michelle : oh , really ? who 's going to hurt me , huh ? are you going to hurt me ? look , tony , look . the big , mean men . i 'm so scared , i 'm shaking all over . phillip : that 's okay , i 'll just sit at the bar . billy : whoa , whoa . buzz , no , wait . look , just calm down . hurting him is not going to help your cause . buzz : get him out of here . billy : okay , you go back and cool off . ( sighs ) phillip , look , why do n't you just leave ? phillip : well , billy , actually , i 'd be more than happy to leave . but as much as i 'd like to let buzz foam at the mouth in peace , i 'm meeting a business associate . billy : why do n't you do it somewhere else ? phillip : well , i guess i could . billy : i mean , beating a guy fair , square or dirty - handed is okay , but rubbing his face in it , that 's another thing . phillip : yeah . well , let me tell you , i think you have a lot bigger things to worry about than your old pal , buzz . have you seen who your son has picked for a business partner ? bill : what was that all about ? billy : just phillip being phillip . so , i hear you two have something to tell me . what , you wait to tell me in a week or two ? bill : no , no . soon as i saw you . soon as i saw you . there you go . slingshot enterprises . what do you think of that logo , huh ? ( cell phone rings ) billy : ah , excuse me . olivia : saved by the ring . you know what ? let 's clear this and sit here . bill : yeah . yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah , olivia : i 've been wanting to tell you that i think this thing that phillip is doing is bigger than we originally thought . bill : all right , how 's that ? olivia : when i called you from the house , he and alan were having a meeting . they were acting really weird -- weirder than usual -- and he also called a special meeting of the board for select shareholders to , you know , `` preview the new corporate strategy , `` as he put it . bill : all right . well , i ca n't wait to hear what he has to say . olivia : well , you 're not going to , because we did n't make the cut . we 're not select enough . he excluded us from the meeting . bill : oh , wait a minute now . can he do that ? olivia : he can try . bill : you want to crash the meeting , huh ? olivia : oh , i do , i do . do n't you ? buzz : out . now . phillip : buzz , please try to calm down . i promise you it will all be over soon . harley : hilda ! hilda : harley . hi . harley : hi . oh , it 's good to see you . hilda : good to see you . harley : how are you ? hilda : good . harley , i 'm so sorry to hear about you and mr . gus . you looked so beautiful in your wedding dress , and i was so happy for you both that day . harley : thanks . yeah , well , you know , things happen for a reason , right ? hilda : well , if you 're here to see mr . gus ... harley : no , no , no , no . if i never see mr . gus again , it will be too soon . no , actually , i heard that the spaulding legal counsel is here and i have a bone to pick with him , so i 'll catch you on the way out , okay ? hilda : oh ... harley : thanks , hilda . hilda : but harley ... harley : excuse me ? sorry . uh , i was looking for the spaulding legal counsel . have you seen him ? gus : you 're looking at him . sandy : coming up on `` guiding light . `` olivia : the way david slew goliath , bill and i are going to go up against spaulding and we 're going to win . billy : you should try and find yourself another business partner . phillip : this is buzz cooper . he 's the owner of this fine establishment . this is pete langtree of langtree demolition . oprah : our first - ever celebrity spouse challen reva : score ! sandy : so , you 're not very good at this ? reva : i may have underestimated myself a little , but i get to ask you a question now . sandy : shoot . reva : when you found out you were adopted , were you surprised or did you suspect it all along ? sandy : suspected it all along . reva : and did you at the time ... sandy : one question . unless you want to make another shot ? reva : oh . no problem . oh , this is n't fair . oh . sandy : too bad -- for you . 13 , corner pocket . reva : ooh , great shot . okay , you get to ask a question . sandy : no , i think i 'll pass . i 'll go for six ... reva : sandy , wait . you can ask a question . there has to be something you want to know . sandy : okay . did you ever wonder if you made the right choice , leaving your child ? reva : i agonized over it . but at the time , it was the only way i could keep you safe from edmund . sandy : and after edmund was no longer a threat ? reva : there were so many years that i do n't even remember . and when i went back to san cristobal , when it all started coming back to me , i had to choose all over again , and i believe i made the right choice . you know , richard and i came to see you when you were still a little boy . that was when i told you that i was your fairy godmother . you remember that , i know you did , because you mentioned it to me . sandy : yeah . reva : we had the most incredible day on the beach , fishing , we built sand castles . you were so happy . `` well - adjusted `` was the way marissa put it . if i had any inkling at all of how miserable you were ... sandy : your shot . reva : i loved you and i thought about you every day , and every day that you were n't with me , a piece of my life was missing . sandy : you ... do you feel whole now ? reva : yeah . do you ? sandy : i 'm working on it . reva : i 'm so proud of who you are , and i 'm so glad that you came home to me . sandy : you know , let 's forget the game . i 'm hungry . reva : ( laughs ) now , wait a minute . we have to finish the game , or else we do n't know who 's buying lunch . sandy : oh , right . okay . eight ball , corner pocket . ah , look at that . reva : you could have made that shot with your eyes closed . you missed on purpose . why ? sandy : gee whiz . ca n't a son do something nice for his mama without all these questions ? reva : ( laughs ) michelle : so , you guys know who this is ? huh ? do you ? you do n't , do you ? this is tony santos . bet you did n't know that , huh ? and you guys are pussycats compared to the goons he 's got on his payroll . so , are you packing ? hm ? let me see . let me see the heat . let me see what you got . tony : get out of here . get out of here ! michelle : oh . aw , come on . you going so soon ? we were just starting to have fun . yeah , that 's right , you better run , you chicken . and do n't think i do n't know who sent you ! danny sent those guys . he 's trying to scare me so i wo n't build the restaurant . it 's not going to work , tony . tony : and you 're sure those were danny 's guys , right ? phillip : yeah , well , that 's fine . however it works . bill : so that 's all phillip said about this special board meeting ? nothing specific ? olivia : no , no , that 's it . but do you want to hear my idea on how we can crash it ? bill : well , we 've got to get past spaulding security . olivia : that 's not a problem . we can do that . my ... ( cell phone ringing ) bill : sorry , i 'm going to have to take this , all right ? olivia : all right . bill : i 'll be right back . billy : so , just what is it exactly you got going on with my boy ? olivia : boy ? no , billy , he 's a full - grown man . billy : look , i know all the grief you caused my little brother . i hope you 're not trying to reprise that song . olivia : well , just so you know , that grief was a two - way street . but you can relax , because bill and i are just business partners . billy : slingshot enterprises ? olivia : the way david slew goliath ? bill and i are going to go up against spaulding and we 're going to win . billy : you 're going to use my boy to get back at phillip . olivia : you do n't think that phillip deserves his comeuppance ? billy : no , no . what i think is that you should try and find yourself another business partner . bill : dad ? lay off her . harley : this is great . this is just great . gus : what are you talking about ? i told you that i had to come back and work for spaulding , did n't i ? harley : yeah , but this ? gus : i am going to help you and your brother and your father . harley : how am i supposed to believe that ? you 're not pushing papers for them . you 're not just crunching numbers anymore . you 're head of their legal department ! gus : which means what ? think about it . it means i 'm privy to every single move they make before they make it . harley : what does that mean ? what are you saying ? gus : what do you think i 'm saying ? harley : are you saying that you 're going to work against alan and phillip undercover to stop this development project ? is that what you 're saying ? gus : i ca n't stop it because i do n't have the authority . but listen , i can slow it down . i can give your side more time . harley : tell me this : what was the point in withholding the paperwork from mel ? gus : because , honey , if i send them paperwork , she has to legally respond to it . this way , if i drag my heels , she can go to a judge and go , `` hey , that side is holding up the works . `` it gives them more time . it gives you more time . harley : but you could get blamed for that . gus : `` phillip , i 'm so sorry . i do n't understand what happened . i guess that my whole plan backfired . `` look , the way that i look at it , if i can just get him to focus on something else , maybe he 'll not go ahead and destroy company . harley : you do n't understand . this is not about business . this is personal for him . phillip is targeting us . gus : this is personal for me as well . langtree : mr. spaulding ? phillip : mr. langtree ! how was your ride from centerville ? did you find it okay ? langtree : it was fine . phillip : good , good . well , let 's have a seat over here . do you like burgers ? they 've got great ones here . oh , buzz , there 's somebody i 'd actually like you to meet . this is buzz cooper . he 's the owner of this fine establishment . this is pete langtree , of langtree demolition . yeah , pete and his crew are the ones that are going to tear this place down . sandy : so you 've never played sandy : so you 've never played nine ball ? you 'd love it ; it 's ruthless . reva : you know , i am so glad you inherited the pool gene from me . marah and shayne , they never really had it , but your grandpa hawk , he has it , too . i 've seen him make some incredible shots . sandy : marah and shayne just were n't interested ? reva : marah is an incredible card player , but shayne always had so many other sports on his mind . you know , when they come home , we 're going to get together and have another family game night . sandy : oh , great . reva : oh , come on . that was fun . when they come home ... huh , seems so far away . thank you , sandy . sandy : for what ? reva : for keeping me company . for letting me win . you 're a good son . thanks . sandy : ha . i 'm paying , remember ? reva : no , not really . sandy : yes , really . i 'm flush now , as soon as i get my first check from the station . reva : oh , that reminds me . money , money , money . i hope you do n't mind that i filled out all the information here . sandy : what is this , from the payroll department ? reva : yeah , it 's a legal document , but you ca n't sign it as sandy foster . you have to sign it as jonathan randall . sandy : ah , right . so they can withhold so much for taxes that i might as well not even work at all . reva : you know what ? i would n't worry about that , though . poverty is not going to be an issue for you . what you signed is not a payroll form . it 's the official release on your trust fund . michelle : i better not get his voice mail . danny ? hey , guess who ? that 's right , it 's your wife ! you know , the one that you have no faith in ? look , i know you do n't like the idea of tony and i building this club together , but there are other ways to get your point across than sending a couple of bruisers over here to trash the place . what ? no , no . no , i was kidding . i 'm kidding . i ... it was a joke . it was a joke . no , it was a dumb ... it was a bad joke . it was really ... you know what ? that 's my other line . i 've got to go . tony : not danny 's guys , huh ? michelle : oh , tony . what did i just do ? i just chased these guys away with an oar . tony . oh , no . tony : well , you scared them . ( laughs ) michelle : ( laughs ) i did , did n't i ? tony : well , the question is : if they were n't danny 's guys , who are they and what do they want ? gus : i can help you , and all you have to do is let me . that 's all . harley : why should i believe you ? gus : because i love you . harley : no . no . because you 're living in this house and you 're working with them , and you 've already lied to protect them . gus : well , i 'm going to help you whether you want me to or not . harley : you want to help me ? go get those papers . go get the documents on the eminent domain and hand them over to me now . that 's how you can help me . gus : they 're in the other room . i 'll get them . hilda : harley ? i 'm sorry . i tried to tell you mr . gus was in here . harley : do n't even worry about it , hilda . wait . wait , before you go . look , i do n't want to get you into any trouble or anything , but i 'm worried about phillip , you know ? do you think he 's okay ? he 's been so , kind of , wired lately , you know ? and he is the father of my son and i 'm wondering , do you have any idea what 's going on with him ? hilda : no , but you 're right . he has been upset about something , business i think . he goes out at all hours by himself . it 's very strange . harley : yeah , that is strange . do you have any idea where he goes ? hilda : no . harley : well , if you should find out , would you just let me know ? hilda : of course . harley ? maybe it 's not my place , but the one you should be worried about is n't mr . phillip . it 's mr . gus . he really misses you . buzz : hey , hold it . i thought you were going to stay for lunch . billy : no way . come on . with phillip spaulding on one side of the room and olivia , who is about to ruin my son 's life because of phillip spaulding on the other side of the room , buzz , too much spaulding for this old boy . look , you better take it easy because you look beat . buzz : well , another family at odds thanks to spaulding enterprises . congratulations . hey , you guys ... you guys are going to stay , right ? olivia : no , i lost my appetite , you know , with ... bill : hey , we got your back , okay ? buzz : choke on it . phillip : oh , buzz ? that little announcement that you just made ? that was completely unprofessional and totally unnecessary . buzz : when i think that my grandson has to grow up with you as a father , that makes me sick . phillip : ( laughs ) well , i find that very funny , coming from you . oh , and buzz ? a little update on the date of the demolition ? buzz : oh , leave me alone . i know when it is . i know when ... phillip : no , you do n't , because i 've just changed my mind . we 're going to tear it down next week . harley : is that everything ? gus : that 's everything you need . harley : great . well , i 'm going to head over to company to look these over with my dad . gus : can i come with you ? harley : why would i want you to do that ? gus : well , i could point out certain clauses , you know , to mel . harley : well , you know , mel 's pretty sharp . i think she can find the clauses herself . gus : coop ? when are you going to cut me some slack ? harley : i do n't know . maybe when i can look at you without feeling sick or hurt . gus : that 's because ... that 's because you still love me . ( sighs ) tony : nothing 's ... nothing 's out of place ? michelle : everything is out of place . what do you mean ? tony : look , you know what i mean . michelle : nothing is missing , if that 's what you mean . no . tony : all right , well , then what were they looking for ? michelle : i do n't know . maybe they were just trying to scare me , you know ? maybe they just wanted to vandalize the place and we walked in and we surprised them . tony : maybe . michelle : well , what are you thinking ? tony : well , i 'm thinking that we 've got a bigger problem on our hands , michelle . you know , not just zoning variances , not just block permits . somebody does n't want us in this lighthouse and by the looks of it , they mean it . they mean business . reva : i hope you do n't mind i took the liberty . i mean , we discussed this , that this was the year that you were going to come into your trust , and when the bank sent over the paperwork ... i mean , all you have to do is you go down to the bank , you show them some i d that proves that you 're jonathan . are you okay ? sandy : yeah , yeah . wow . a lot to wrap my head around , though . reva : so i thought we 'd take the release down to the bank later and you can show them your passport ... sandy : no . i do n't want to do that . reva : why ? why not ? sandy : i do n't want the money . reva : sandy , we 've been over this before . sandy : mm - hmm , we have . and i still feel the same way . every trust - fund baby i 've ever met is beyond messed up . i do n't want to become one of them . reva : not you . you 're who you are . sandy : reva , read my lips : i do n't want the money . reva : okay . can we make a compromise ? sandy : i do n't want to compromise , either . reva : fine . then i 'll just fax this back to the bank . they wanted them back as soon as possible . and when you 're more rational , then you can go in ... sandy : i am rational . you 're just not listening . reva : then you better come up with a very valid reason for why you do n't want the money , otherwise your friends are going to give you a very hard time tonight . sandy : my friends , tonight ? reva : oh , you know what ? i did n't even tell you . ( laughs ) i 'm throwing you a birthday bash at the house later . nothing formal . just informal . and you ca n't protest because i intend to spoil you rotten . thanks for lunch . sandy : you 're welcome . reva : bye . sandy : yeah , hi . i got a question . how does one go about claiming a trust fund at your bank ? no , no , no . actually , i need to know exactly what kind of identification is required . buzz : no , i will die defending this place ! this place is my life and you will not take it from me ! langtree : mr. cooper ... buzz : shut up ! shut up ! you hear me ? you hear me ? i have failed in the past , but not this time ! this time you do not win , i do not quit ! you like the burgers here , huh ? you like the burgers ? you like to throw your money around like a big guy ? here . well , eat this . ( plates crashing ) you want a bulldozer ? i 've got your bulldozer ! gus : hey ! you just ran through two red lights . harley : that 's because you were tailing me the whole time . go away . gus : why do you have to be so stubborn ? please , just admit it . harley : admit what ? gus : just look at me ... look at my face ... phillip : hey , i 'm glad you 're here . maybe you can calm him down . harley : who ? phillip : your father nearly attacked me . he 's lost it . harley : why do you think he 's lost it ? god , phillip . god , i hate you ! i hate you ! i hate all of you spauldings ! every one that ever walked the face of the earth ! phillip : well , i guess it would be pointless to remind you that your son -- our son -- is also a spaulding . harley : that 's because i was stupid enough to marry you . phillip : sorry i brought it up . come on , pete . ( crash ) gus : what was that ? harley : i do n't know . oh , my god . daddy . call 911 ! call 911 ! daddy ? next , on `` guiding light . `` harley : stay away from me . it 's because of you that my father is in there fighting for his life . michelle : you know , would it be so hard for people to actually give tony a chance ? mel : michelle , tony is taking advantage of you .
buzz launches his campaign against the spaulding 's to save company . phillip lashes out at a servant , and he and gus get into another argument about being loyal to the family . harley , bill and olivia meet at a bar . harley tells them that they need to chip away at the spaulding 's a little at a time and bill agrees . harley decides to go meet with the spaulding legal counsel and is shocked to see gus . gus tells harley that he 's trying to help the coopers . michelle finds out that tony bought the house and thinks that it was nice of him . reva and sandy work on ‘adoption ' show ideas for `` the reva lewis show . `` sandy does n't want to do the show and leaves . billy tells buzz that he and josh have an idea about relocating company . billy offers to do it wherever buzz wants to . phillip goes into company and buzz threatens him , telling him he has nothing to lose . phillip antagonizes buzz and billy has to pull buzz away from him . billy tries to kick phillip out , but he refuses saying he 's meeting a business associate . phillip introduces buzz to the man who 's going to tear company down . reva and sandy play a game of pool , where whomever lands a ball gets to ask the other person a question . reva gives sandy the papers to sign to release his trust fund money . sandy tells reva he does n't want the money and after she leaves makes a phone call wanting to know exactly what paperwork he needs to go about getting his trust fund . two men are at the lighthouse when michelle and tony arrive and are rifling through michelle 's things .
<s>[INST] buzz : two hot ones coming through ! reva : buzz is a real whirlwind today . sandy : uh , well , like i was saying , i think we should tape in the studio on wednesday and do the remote on thursday . buzz : ( breathing heavily ) : party of two ? right over here . i 've got your buttons for you , got bumper stickers for you , i 've got flyers for you to tell you all about the evil spaulding family , the scourge of the earth and how they 're trying to destroy me and my family . reva : buzz ? buzz : hey , gorgeous . reva : hi , honey . well , you know what ? take a break ? buzz : i can't . i 've got bulldozers around the corner . i 've got to make every second count . reva : okay . okay . then at least take a deep breath because you 're panting like you just ran a marathon . buzz : ( panting ) : the fan broke in the kitchen . it 's like an oven in there . reva : can i tell you something ? buzz : what ? reva : i really wanted to do a story on your situation here , but my new boss , weasel that he is , nixed the whole idea . buzz : ( laughs bitterly ) probably a crony of phillip spaulding 's . reva : actually , my new boss is phillip spaulding . he bought wsbr . buzz : ( panting ) reva : are you okay ? buzz : yeah . that guy 's got to be stopped . then i 'll be okay . phillip : you know , the next time the governor calls , hilary , you do not put him on hold . do you understand ? hilda : yes , sir . phillip : he 's the governor , hilary . of the state . hilda : yes , sir . i 'm sorry , sir . and by the way ? my name is hilda , sir . gus : hm . well , brother , next time you do n't remember her name , why do n't you just go , `` hey , yo ! servant ! `` why do n't you do that ? phillip : oh , gus . champion of the little people . gus : i prefer `` hero of the little people , `` thank you very much . phillip : well , you 've definitely got some attraction for them , because i can not fathom for an instant why you are standing by the coopers after they turned their back on you and humiliated you the way they did . gus : so compassion is weakness in your book ? phillip : only if it means that your loyalties are divided and you ca n't effectively represent the best interests of spaulding enterprises . gus : phillip -- and this is for the last time -- i told you , since i 'm back on board , okay , i will do my job . and i will . like a good little soldier , i will . okay ? so who do we crush next ? harley : okay , so you guys want to take down phillip and spaulding enterprises via the business route , some kind of overthrow . olivia : some kind of overthrow ? harley : we are never going to take away all of phillip 's power all at once . never . we have to chip away at it . bill : death by a thousand cuts . harley : exactly . so i say we concentrate on saving company first , dealing him a loss . olivia : how did i know you were going to say that ? harley : olivia , you may have the business sense , but when it comes to people , i 'm on it , okay ? we have to make spaulding look bad . so , we have to get all the stockholders and all the potential stockholders to turn against them , and i say company is a great rallying point for that . olivia : no offense , but it 's a little restaurant . we 're talking about a company that makes multi - millions of dollars . harley : i would n't expect you to understand about family ... bill : okay , ladies . ladies . ladies . let 's ... okay , all this bickering is hurting my old tum- tum . all right , we all want the same thing , right ? take spauldings down . harley : right . bill : right . olivia : right . bill : right . olivia : so , tell harley why her plan is not viable . bill : ca n't do that , olivia , because i happen to think she 's right . tony : hey , michelle . michelle : tony . tony : what ? michelle : you scared me . tony : i saw you pull in . what are you doing here ? you want the rest of your stuff ? michelle : yeah . what are you doing here ? tony : well , i ... the house is mine now . i bought it from danny . it sounds a little crazy , but it actually makes a lot of sense . michelle : wow . i guess danny was right . you really do want everything he has . tony : look , michelle , i bought this house for one reason , okay ? to help put some cash in danny 's pocket . all right ? now when he gets back on his feet and he 's working , he 's got a paying gig , i told him that he could buy the house back from me . that was the deal that we made , you know ? i mean , it 's like , you know , you try to do something nice ... in fact , i hate this place . michelle : whoa , whoa . okay , i was kidding . i was kidding you . i probably like this place less than you do , but i know that it means a lot to danny , so i think that what you did was really nice . tony : well , at least someone sees it that way . michelle : you know , the way you were going on and on like that , it seemed like you really thought i was serious . did you ? tony : you know , i 'm tired of hearing that from people . i 've been told that all my life . michelle : okay . all right . sore subject . tony : yeah . michelle : duly noted . i 'm going over to the lighthouse now . do you want to come ? i 'm going to check out the drawings the designer did and make some notes . tony : it 's a waste of time . i mean , ross is still blocking the permit . why would you go ? michelle : tony ... you just ... you know , you 've got to forget about the stupid permits . the only way this place is going to happen is if we make it happen . so , going to come with me ? because i have some great ideas . tony : ( laughs ) well , unfortunately , you 're going to have to do it on your own because i have a lot of stuff to do around here . michelle : oh , what stuff ? tony : i 've got stuff to do . go . go on , get out of here . go on . michelle : okay . your loss . buzz : first phillip pulls a sneak attack on company . then he takes over the local station so honest reporters like you ca n't get the word out . i mean , that 's the definition of sleaze . reva : well , he wo n't get away with this . buzz : ( breathing heavily ) : no , he won't . excuse me . reva : what do you say we talk about stories that we can do ? sandy : okay . sounds good to me . reva : what we have to start with is some hard research . you know , facts and figures about how many kids actually out there have found their biological parents . do a show . the adoption show . sandy : yeah . yeah , you know , we do n't have the okay from phillip on that . reva : well , it does n't challenge phillip 's power base at all . we 're going to do this show , whether he likes it or not . sandy : you know you 're asking for trouble , reva . reva : from phillip or from you ? look , i know that you do n't like the idea of this show , but at least i 've gotten past the idea of you being an interviewee . you know , on camera ? and all i really need from you is your insight and your ideas about the whole thing . sandy : if i do n't want to give them , what , am i fired ? reva : sandy , there are thousands of kids out there searching for their biological mothers , and then there are thousands out there who have found them just like you . this is a ... it 's a rich human topic and i think it 's worth doing . sandy : knock yourself out . do it without me . reva : where are you going ? sandy : i have an appointment i forgot about . bill : okay , this is n't just about saving company , okay ? olivia : no , exactly . we have bigger fish to fry . bill : but any loss for phillip is a win for us , especially a public one . olivia : all right , fine . that makes sense , but can we keep our eye on the bigger picture , please ? bill : always . olivia : so what do we do ? do we print more lovely flyers and little `` save company `` buttons and hand them out ? what ? harley : no . i will let my family handle that stuff . defending ourselves is important , but so is being on the offensive , which is where we come in . we 're going to take the fight to phillip . bill : a girl after your own heart , is n't she ? olivia : what does that mean ? harley : it means that i 've already got mel boudreau working on getting the applications that phillip filed to secure eminent domain . bill : has she had any luck ? harley : of course not . it 's the same thing every day : `` it 's in the mail , it 's in the mail . `` olivia : so what ? so what ? you 're a private detective . why do n't you just find the documents another way ? harley : you 're right . you 're right . i need to take this a step further . i 'm not going to play by their rules . olivia : who is she calling ? bill : i have no idea , but she 's got an evil look in her eye . harley : spaulding legal department , please . hello , this is stacey collier , mark berkowitz 's assistant at berkowitz smith hoyt and weintraub in new york city . who am i speaking with ? hello , alice . yes , we have some confidential contracts en route to your office via air courier . they need to be hand delivered to your chief counsel and signed by him asap . do you have any idea where he 'll be in the next half hour ? perfect . thank you so very much . he 's at the spaulding mansion right now . bill : ( laughs ) very good . olivia : okay , so how does that help us ? harley : it helps us because i am going to threaten to shove him face first into the pool unless he gives me the stupid papers . or i could just steal his briefcase . olivia : okay , it 's working for me . now it 's working for me . while you 're there , why do n't you corral some servants and just see if they know what phillip is up to ? harley : oh , so now you like my little talking - to - the- servants idea . olivia : it was a good idea , okay ? i just needed time to get my head around it . harley : all right , guys . i 'm heading to the big house . bill : all right . now , are you sure you 're going to be all right through this alone ? harley : oh , please . i am looking forward to putting the screws to this creep . excuse me ? gus : hilda . harley : black , two sugars . gus : yeah , i said i did n't want another cup of coffee . harley : aw , heck , i knew you did n't mean that . just like you di't mean a lot of the things you 've said . living here , in the mausoleum ? ugh , sterile city . now you and me and the kids in my place ? that was nice . lots of laughter , love . well , at least you 've got the memories , right ? too bad that 's all you 've got . unless you 've had a change of heart ? unless you want us back enough to sacrifice for us . gus : of course i do . you 're killing me here . you 're making me choose between my family and your family . harley : please . there 's no contest . do you want me back or do n't you ? gus : of course i want you back . of course i do . of course i do . buzz : no . no one from spaulding enterprises is to set foot on my property . billy : buzz , who was that ? buzz : ( breathing heavily ) : phillip 's structural engineer . he says he needs access to this property prior to demolition . not while i 'm kicking . billy : hey , you know , i 've been giving your situation a lot of thought here , and i think you can beat phillip at his own game . josh and i came up with an idea . how about you let josh and i relocate you ? buzz : relocate me ? billy : we pick the whole place up lock , stock and tomahawk , and we set it down wherever you want . and i 've got a couple of good places in mind . buzz : you are a beautiful man , but no one is chasing me out of here , and that 's it . billy : look , i appreciate your spunk and i think fighting back is good , but the fact is ... buzz : no , the fact is , when the diner went down , when it burned down for the second time , i started again from scratch . this is it . i do n't plan to do that again . phillip can build his ... you know , his mall , whatever the heck he wants to build , someplace else ! billy : hey , you know , the truth of the matter is that the state passed on it and the governor signed off on it . he 's got a lot of money . no , you can stall him , but odds say that he 's going to win . phillip : he 's right , buzz . buzz : there 's the door . use it . phillip : i can see you 're not feeling sociable . that 's all right . i 'll seat myself . billy : why do n't you just leave ? phillip : you 're turning away a paying customer ? buzz : this is still my property . i want you to leave . either do it of your own free will or i will make it happen . phillip : you 're threatening me . buzz : i know what you 're thinking : `` he 's old , he 's out of shape , i 'll take him out with one punch . `` before you make a stupid mistake , chew on this : i am against the wall . i have nothing to lose . you do . so bring it on . come on , i 'm begging you . reva : so , your appointment was with a pool cue . sandy : it 's a good way to blow off some steam . reva : steam that would otherwise be directed at me ? sandy : i 'm not mad at you , reva . i just do n't feel like talking . reva : well , then let 's not talk . let 's play . eight ball . it 's the only game i know . ( laughs ) but i should warn you , i 'm not very good at it . sandy : oh , neither am i . reva : right . sandy : right . reva : no , i 'm serious , i 'm really bad at this . ( laughs ) sandy : so am i . reva : ( laughs ) yeah , right . sandy : right . reva : okay , here 's the deal . whoever sinks a ball gets to ask the other person a question . sandy : i thought we were n't doing the talking . reva : we 're not talking . we 're asking and answering , questioning and answering . sandy : could you split that hair any finer ? reva : oh , you know what ? you 're smiling . that must mean you want to play . sandy : okay . if you buy me lunch . reva : and why am i supposed to buy you lunch ? sandy : because the losers always buy . and you 're going to lose . reva : ooh , baby . them 's fighting words . michelle : i knew you wanted to come with me . see , you love this place as much as i do . what the ... ? tony : hey ! hey ! who are you guys , huh ? guy # 1 : you live here ? michelle : this is private property , okay ? it 's my property . i 'll ask the questions . guy # 2 : what 's going on with the construction upstairs ? michelle : i 'm building a restaurant and a club , not that it 's any of your business . guy # 1 : that 's not a good idea . tony : no , what 's not a good idea is you being here , man . guy # 2 : keep it up and you could get hurt . michelle : oh , really ? who 's going to hurt me , huh ? are you going to hurt me ? look , tony , look . the big , mean men . i 'm so scared , i 'm shaking all over . phillip : that 's okay , i 'll just sit at the bar . billy : whoa , whoa . buzz , no , wait . look , just calm down . hurting him is not going to help your cause . buzz : get him out of here . billy : okay , you go back and cool off . ( sighs ) phillip , look , why do n't you just leave ? phillip : well , billy , actually , i 'd be more than happy to leave . but as much as i 'd like to let buzz foam at the mouth in peace , i 'm meeting a business associate . billy : why do n't you do it somewhere else ? phillip : well , i guess i could . billy : i mean , beating a guy fair , square or dirty - handed is okay , but rubbing his face in it , that 's another thing . phillip : yeah . well , let me tell you , i think you have a lot bigger things to worry about than your old pal , buzz . have you seen who your son has picked for a business partner ? bill : what was that all about ? billy : just phillip being phillip . so , i hear you two have something to tell me . what , you wait to tell me in a week or two ? bill : no , no . soon as i saw you . soon as i saw you . there you go . slingshot enterprises . what do you think of that logo , huh ? ( cell phone rings ) billy : ah , excuse me . olivia : saved by the ring . you know what ? let 's clear this and sit here . bill : yeah . yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah , olivia : i 've been wanting to tell you that i think this thing that phillip is doing is bigger than we originally thought . bill : all right , how 's that ? olivia : when i called you from the house , he and alan were having a meeting . they were acting really weird -- weirder than usual -- and he also called a special meeting of the board for select shareholders to , you know , `` preview the new corporate strategy , `` as he put it . bill : all right . well , i ca n't wait to hear what he has to say . olivia : well , you 're not going to , because we did n't make the cut . we 're not select enough . he excluded us from the meeting . bill : oh , wait a minute now . can he do that ? olivia : he can try . bill : you want to crash the meeting , huh ? olivia : oh , i do , i do . do n't you ? buzz : out . now . phillip : buzz , please try to calm down . i promise you it will all be over soon . harley : hilda ! hilda : harley . hi . harley : hi . oh , it 's good to see you . hilda : good to see you . harley : how are you ? hilda : good . harley , i 'm so sorry to hear about you and mr . gus . you looked so beautiful in your wedding dress , and i was so happy for you both that day . harley : thanks . yeah , well , you know , things happen for a reason , right ? hilda : well , if you 're here to see mr . gus ... harley : no , no , no , no . if i never see mr . gus again , it will be too soon . no , actually , i heard that the spaulding legal counsel is here and i have a bone to pick with him , so i 'll catch you on the way out , okay ? hilda : oh ... harley : thanks , hilda . hilda : but harley ... harley : excuse me ? sorry . uh , i was looking for the spaulding legal counsel . have you seen him ? gus : you 're looking at him . sandy : coming up on `` guiding light . `` olivia : the way david slew goliath , bill and i are going to go up against spaulding and we 're going to win . billy : you should try and find yourself another business partner . phillip : this is buzz cooper . he 's the owner of this fine establishment . this is pete langtree of langtree demolition . oprah : our first - ever celebrity spouse challen reva : score ! sandy : so , you 're not very good at this ? reva : i may have underestimated myself a little , but i get to ask you a question now . sandy : shoot . reva : when you found out you were adopted , were you surprised or did you suspect it all along ? sandy : suspected it all along . reva : and did you at the time ... sandy : one question . unless you want to make another shot ? reva : oh . no problem . oh , this is n't fair . oh . sandy : too bad -- for you . 13 , corner pocket . reva : ooh , great shot . okay , you get to ask a question . sandy : no , i think i 'll pass . i 'll go for six ... reva : sandy , wait . you can ask a question . there has to be something you want to know . sandy : okay . did you ever wonder if you made the right choice , leaving your child ? reva : i agonized over it . but at the time , it was the only way i could keep you safe from edmund . sandy : and after edmund was no longer a threat ? reva : there were so many years that i do n't even remember . and when i went back to san cristobal , when it all started coming back to me , i had to choose all over again , and i believe i made the right choice . you know , richard and i came to see you when you were still a little boy . that was when i told you that i was your fairy godmother . you remember that , i know you did , because you mentioned it to me . sandy : yeah . reva : we had the most incredible day on the beach , fishing , we built sand castles . you were so happy . `` well - adjusted `` was the way marissa put it . if i had any inkling at all of how miserable you were ... sandy : your shot . reva : i loved you and i thought about you every day , and every day that you were n't with me , a piece of my life was missing . sandy : you ... do you feel whole now ? reva : yeah . do you ? sandy : i 'm working on it . reva : i 'm so proud of who you are , and i 'm so glad that you came home to me . sandy : you know , let 's forget the game . i 'm hungry . reva : ( laughs ) now , wait a minute . we have to finish the game , or else we do n't know who 's buying lunch . sandy : oh , right . okay . eight ball , corner pocket . ah , look at that . reva : you could have made that shot with your eyes closed . you missed on purpose . why ? sandy : gee whiz . ca n't a son do something nice for his mama without all these questions ? reva : ( laughs ) michelle : so , you guys know who this is ? huh ? do you ? you do n't , do you ? this is tony santos . bet you did n't know that , huh ? and you guys are pussycats compared to the goons he 's got on his payroll . so , are you packing ? hm ? let me see . let me see the heat . let me see what you got . tony : get out of here . get out of here ! michelle : oh . aw , come on . you going so soon ? we were just starting to have fun . yeah , that 's right , you better run , you chicken . and do n't think i do n't know who sent you ! danny sent those guys . he 's trying to scare me so i wo n't build the restaurant . it 's not going to work , tony . tony : and you 're sure those were danny 's guys , right ? phillip : yeah , well , that 's fine . however it works . bill : so that 's all phillip said about this special board meeting ? nothing specific ? olivia : no , no , that 's it . but do you want to hear my idea on how we can crash it ? bill : well , we 've got to get past spaulding security . olivia : that 's not a problem . we can do that . my ... ( cell phone ringing ) bill : sorry , i 'm going to have to take this , all right ? olivia : all right . bill : i 'll be right back . billy : so , just what is it exactly you got going on with my boy ? olivia : boy ? no , billy , he 's a full - grown man . billy : look , i know all the grief you caused my little brother . i hope you 're not trying to reprise that song . olivia : well , just so you know , that grief was a two - way street . but you can relax , because bill and i are just business partners . billy : slingshot enterprises ? olivia : the way david slew goliath ? bill and i are going to go up against spaulding and we 're going to win . billy : you 're going to use my boy to get back at phillip . olivia : you do n't think that phillip deserves his comeuppance ? billy : no , no . what i think is that you should try and find yourself another business partner . bill : dad ? lay off her . harley : this is great . this is just great . gus : what are you talking about ? i told you that i had to come back and work for spaulding , did n't i ? harley : yeah , but this ? gus : i am going to help you and your brother and your father . harley : how am i supposed to believe that ? you 're not pushing papers for them . you 're not just crunching numbers anymore . you 're head of their legal department ! gus : which means what ? think about it . it means i 'm privy to every single move they make before they make it . harley : what does that mean ? what are you saying ? gus : what do you think i 'm saying ? harley : are you saying that you 're going to work against alan and phillip undercover to stop this development project ? is that what you 're saying ? gus : i ca n't stop it because i do n't have the authority . but listen , i can slow it down . i can give your side more time . harley : tell me this : what was the point in withholding the paperwork from mel ? gus : because , honey , if i send them paperwork , she has to legally respond to it . this way , if i drag my heels , she can go to a judge and go , `` hey , that side is holding up the works . `` it gives them more time . it gives you more time . harley : but you could get blamed for that . gus : `` phillip , i 'm so sorry . i do n't understand what happened . i guess that my whole plan backfired . `` look , the way that i look at it , if i can just get him to focus on something else , maybe he 'll not go ahead and destroy company . harley : you do n't understand . this is not about business . this is personal for him . phillip is targeting us . gus : this is personal for me as well . langtree : mr. spaulding ? phillip : mr. langtree ! how was your ride from centerville ? did you find it okay ? langtree : it was fine . phillip : good , good . well , let 's have a seat over here . do you like burgers ? they 've got great ones here . oh , buzz , there 's somebody i 'd actually like you to meet . this is buzz cooper . he 's the owner of this fine establishment . this is pete langtree , of langtree demolition . yeah , pete and his crew are the ones that are going to tear this place down . sandy : so you 've never played sandy : so you 've never played nine ball ? you 'd love it ; it 's ruthless . reva : you know , i am so glad you inherited the pool gene from me . marah and shayne , they never really had it , but your grandpa hawk , he has it , too . i 've seen him make some incredible shots . sandy : marah and shayne just were n't interested ?

[ erica slaps annie then pushes her into a bathroom stall ] annie : oh ! huh . oh -- ah ! ah ! erica : oh , good . now all i have to do is flush . oh , you think you 're so smart . you think you got it all figured out . a twitch of your behind , adam on the hook , and all your problems are solved . annie : i love adam . erica : no , you love what you think he can do for you . you think all his power and his money are going to make all the charges against you go away and maybe even buy you custody of your little girl emma . annie : yeah , children should be with their mothers . erica : not with murdering psychopath mothers , no , they should n't . adam may be temporarily blinded by you , but he 's going to see you for who you really are and he 's going to toss you out of his house just like the trash you are . annie : oh , please ! erica : oh ! annie : what are you talking about ? like with you and ryan ? he just feels sorry for you , because you have no one in your life . everyone knows you can get all the men , but you ca n't keep them . trust me , ryan would never be stupid enough to fall in love with you . oh ! oh !

[ scene_break ] carrie : what are you doing ? jake : uh -- just -- going to have a little baby time . carrie : no . you heard dr. hayward 's instructions . no one 's to hold the baby . um -- you 're not going to tell him that i was asleep , are you ? jake : carrie -- is that right -- carrie ? carrie : yes . jake : i remembered that . i remembered that because i like that name , a lot . i dated a carrie . well -- and your -- your eyes -- did anybody ever tell you that they 're -- well , they 're beautiful . that 's lame . sorry . it 's just -- i just -- the truth is , i love this little one to pieces . and i just thought it would be nice to have a little time with the baby . a little baby time . you know , what also would probably be nice is some nanny time . [ jake chuckles ] [ scene_break ] david : it still hurts , does n't it ? amanda : what ? david : your fight with jake . amanda : he 's my husband . david : yes , he is . and you love him . amanda : of course , i do . it 's just -- he -- what he did -- the chances that we took -- i could have lost my son forever , and if anything had happened to trevor because of jake 's plan , then i -- [ amanda sighs ] david : but of course , you forgive him . because you do love him . amanda : can we just dance ? david : whatever you want .

[ scene_break ] madison : i knew we 'd be good together . frankie : are you having fun humiliating me ? madison : i 'm not trying to humiliate you . i just want to have fun . you know ? like at the casino . frankie : i was drunk . madison : and hot . frankie : i was a mess . madison : well , yeah , you just had a fight with your wife . you needed a shoulder and i was there . tonight , i need the shoulder . [ scene_break ] randi 's voice : maybe it 's better if i just confess , and just tell him before he finds out on his own . randi : this is bad . jesse : i need those tapes . and i need those tapes to prove that madison killed her husband . randi : no , it 's over . madison won . angie : like hell she has . dancing is the last thing i feel like doing . jesse : yeah , i know , but i just want to keep an eye on madison . angie : yeah , well , i would like to put more than an eye on her . jesse : yeah . it 's ok . we good ? tad : i do n't know . are you ok ? jesse : define ok . frankie : hey , how 's randi ? jesse : she 's keeping it together . frankie : damn . jesse : so how 'd you do it ? the tape ? that bookend you sent to randi -- you bugged it , right ? madison : yes , i did . and just so you know , if you destroy that tape , i have plenty of copies . angie : you little -- where do you get off -- frankie : mom , i 'm handling it . angie : dancing with that garbage is handling it ? madison : ease up , mother hubbard . i will grab that microphone and tell the entire world your daughter - in - law murdered my husband and that your super cop husband here helped her cover it up . jesse : hey , hey , hey -- frankie : mom , chill . jesse : listen -- listen , i 'm -- i 'm feeling exactly what you 're feeling , but this is not the place . madison : look at me . protected by the big , strong hubbard men . how lucky am i ? let me see your moves . [ frankie sighs ] brot : about time , sleepyhead . natalia : i thought that skank had a police escort out of here . brot : hey , hey , hey . let it go . natalia : no , i ca n't . brot : whoa . jesse : whoa , whoa . do n't , do n't , do n't . natalia : how the hell is she still here ? why is she dancing with frankie ? where 's randi ? jesse : shh . randi is in erica 's office . natalia : what happened ? jesse : go to the office and talk to randi . she 'll fill you in , ok ? tad : well , you know what they say . time flies when you 're having fun , and we are certainly having some fun now . so it 's your job to keep those donations coming in . i 'm sure for a few dollars more , we could even get erica kane and ryan lavery back out on the dance floor . if i know anything about erica kane , it 's that she never disappoints , and she never quits . [ scene_break ] erica : not so brave without a gun in your hand , are you ? adam : erica 's not worth going back to prison for . erica : but killing stuart is . officer : what 's going on here ? erica : oh , officer , this woman -- she -- adam : did nothing , nothing . nothing , officer . we -- we were just ready to return to the dance floor . [ annie sighs ] annie : go to hell . [ erica sighs ] erica : oh , she was so close . she was just ready to crack . i was -- oh ! if you and adam had n't come in just when you did , she was ready to tell me everything -- to confess just to throw it in my face . ryan : or she could have hurt you . erica : no . no , no , no , i am perfectly capable of handling myself . ryan : well , i know you are , erica . i know you are , but if i can protect you , i will , ok ? now , let 's just go back and dazzle the crowd , please . [ scene_break ] zach : hey , i 'm -- i 'm sorry i almost bit your head off out there . it 's -- it 's been a long night . and our break is over , so if we do n't want to get disqualified , we should keep dancing . i do n't want to push you away .

[ scene_break ] david : listen , amanda , i do n't want you to be unhappy . amanda : if i were happy , we 'd have nothing in common . david : well , that 's not true . our son makes me very happy . amanda : for now . you know , you throw around these words -- love , happy . how are you ever going to get there if you never let yourself trust anyone ? david : my mother was a psychopath . love and trust were as real to me as the tooth fairy or santa claus . amanda : that 's a horrible way to live . david : i see your point , which is exactly why i want you to help me raise our son . you had picnics , a dog , a dad nicknamed `` pork chop . `` amanda : and a crazy mom . david : you see right there ? that 's another thing we have in common . but at least your mother knew how to love you . your childhood may not have been picture perfect , but you knew love . and that 's what you 'll be able to give our son -- the kind of childhood that i never had , so he can grow up to trust and be the kind of man that , frankly , i will never be . [ scene_break ] jake : you know , i think that we shared a little moment the last time that we were together , if you remember . you do n't remember ? i 'm going to think of you every time i look at this throw up . because i do n't think this is going to come out . it 'll be like this stain a little bit . but i 'll think of you in a good way . in a good way , in a good way . [ jake chuckles ] carrie : you 're funny . [ jake sighs ] jake : looking , or just -- do you like telenovelas ?

[ jake takes carrie 's face in his hands and kisses her ] [ scene_break ] [ applause ] tad : very nice . [ erica laughs ] tad : good to have you back . you were cutting it close . i take it the ankle is not bothering you too much ? erica : oh , not a bit . i just had a little pain i had to work out . tad : uh -- wow , i think this is what people call the -- the wet look , but somehow , it seems to work for you . adam : well , it was a bit of an accident . somebody spilled some water on her . tad : or gave you a swirly . adam : shut the hell up , martin . tad : well , there you go , folks . the marathon just keeps rolling on , and the tough get tougher . anything can happen . i think we 've safely established that , so you keep those dona -- [ erica gasps as the lights flicker ] annie : what -- ryan : what 's going on ?

[ scene_break ] madison : you know , we 're going to make millions . frankie : i 'm not selling organs on the black market for transplant , ok ? madison : come on , frankie , have a heart . ha ha . get it ? oh , come on . what 's so wrong about supplying what the market demands ? frankie : it 's illegal . madison : so is murder . frankie : i 'm not going to do it . madison : ok . then you 're going to do something else -- to your wife . [ scene_break ] angie : how -- how is it possible that that spoiled brat can have so much power over this family ? there has to be some way , jesse -- something we can do to stop her . jesse : there 's only one way to do that . i 'll confess . [ scene_break ] [ as the room starts to heat up , tad loosens his tie ] tad : just go out and see what you can do , because at this rate , we 're going down in history as the world 's first all - nude dance marathon . liza : zach , just -- come on . let it go . let it go . stop trying to control everyone and everything . zach : i 'm not . liza : you are . see ? there . there , that is what i 'm talking about .

[ scene_break ] ryan : how are you holding up ? erica : oh , i 'm fine . ryan : are you sure ? erica : mm - him . ryan : i 've never seen you quite so quiet . something that annie said ? erica : oh , annie said a lot of things . and i was so angry . i mean , i was so caught up in the moment . she said she thinks we 're serious . ryan : we are . [ scene_break ] natalia : that woman is pure evil . randi : and she just keeps coming back . i thought we were safe . [ natalia sighs ] randi : look , even if jesse 's theory is right -- natalia : what theory ? randi : he thinks madison was at the hotel that night . that she went into henry 's room after i left , and she killed him . natalia : and then you returned , found him dead , and thought you did it . randi , that 's great . i mean , that makes total sense . randi : none of that matters . not with this tape . even if jesse 's right , madison still wins . natalia : not necessarily . [ scene_break ] brot : hey , tad , i mean , what 's up with that woman ? that madison girl ? tad : i do n't know , but jesse told me to stay out of it . brot : you know , they told me the same thing . i do n't like it . tad : yeah . it stinks . being sidelined when you know your friends are in trouble . trust me , i 've known them both for a long time . if angela or jesse need help , they 'll ask for it . [ scene_break ] jesse : madison 's got us all by the throat , and it 's all my fault . angie : only because you were trying to help randi . jesse : i just moved too fast . i -- i did n't think it through , baby . i -- i should have taken the time to look at all the evidence before i decided to cover it up . i could have stopped this at the beginning . angie : you did what you had to do . jesse : yeah , and look where we end up -- in hell , thanks to me . i got to step up . i 'm going to tell madison that i will confess to her husband 's murder if she destroys the tapes . game over . frankie , randi are free . angie : where will you be ? look , that -- that is never going to work . now , madison -- she will never go away . [ scene_break ] madison : do n't stop dancing . you do n't want to get disqualified . frankie : hey , you are out of your mind . i would never do that to randi , never . madison : well , it beats jail . oh , look , now 's your chance . and make it juicy . randi : madison wants something , does n't she ? what is it ? what does she want now ? [ scene_break ] david : oh , brother . [ david chuckles as he and amanda take some clothing off ] david : feels like this town finally got their wish , and i went to hell . but at least i took them all with me . i 'm glad we had our talk . [ scene_break ] jake : there you go . a little way of apologizing to you for my -- just for being out of line . that was -- that 's not my style -- kissing your face like that . i just -- you know what it is ? ever since my wife left me for the prince of darkness -- i like to call him that . it 's my little nickname for him -- i just -- i feel lonely . like i 'm alone , like there 's no one around . like there 's tumbleweeds going by . just , you know -- carrie : i know what it 's like to be alone . jake : you do ? carrie : mm - hmm . jake : really ? jake : would you care for a shot ? i find them very helpful in little situations like this . kind of -- you know what i mean ? carrie : no . jake : you know ? are you sure ? carrie : no , thanks . i 'm -- i 'm working . jake : right , with trevor .

[ all gasping , muttering ] [ desolate music ] i 'm sorry , dr . grant . this was obviously a surprise . abe : you leave her out of this . sheila : this is a hit job . that photo is fake . eve : no , what is fake is mayor carver 's slick façade of integrity and honesty . now , if he would cheat on a woman that loves him ... man : yeah ! woman : right ? eve : how can you trust him to protect , to respect , and honor you ? to do what is best for you ? people of salem ! [ crowd assenting ] haley : hi . kayla : oh , what a surprise ! oh , my gosh , we have missed you around here . haley : and i have missed you , which is actually why i 'm here today . um ... i was hoping that maybe i could get my job back .

[ cheers and applause ] sheila : you want a comment ? well , i have all kinds , 'cause it 's not what you think . reporter : so you 're denying there 's a relationship ? sheila : oh , it was a kiss , one kiss -- that kiss , and the mayor did n't kiss me . i kissed him . it was all me . i was wrong , and i 'm not proud of it , and i acted inappropriately ...

[ chiming music ] ( announcer ) do you push through migraine ? haley : the look on claire 's face when i told agent smith that she was moving out . i - i felt so terrible ... because ... because now , it 's gon na be much harder for her to be with tripp , and i know she sacrificed so much for me already . so has tripp . kayla : as wonderful as i think my stepson is , you had to marry a man you did n't love . you have made sacrifices , too . i mean , you and jj have a certain some -- connection , right ? and i do n't think that his feelings have changed just because you 're mrs . dalton now . haley : i 've been so mad at jj for so long , and , uh , i - i realize now how wrong i was . you know , my -- my wedding present to myself was -- was to forgive him . kayla : so the connection 's still there for you , too ? haley : yeah , yeah , it is , but it 's not like there 's anything i can do about it . i mean , jj and i are n't any freer to be together than tripp and claire are . tripp : of course i still want you . claire : no , no , forget it . i 'm sorry i asked . i 'll see you in three years -- or never . tripp : hey , no , no -- wait , you know , you 're right . you 're right , you 're right . i 'm sorry , all right ? you -- agent smith does n't have a key or anything . it 's not like she 's gon na bust in on us . claire : oh , oh , well , thank you , but i think i 'll skip the mercy sex . tripp : no , no . claire : what ?

[ chiming music ] ( announcer ) do you push through migraine ? haley : the look on claire 's face when i told agent smith that she was moving out . i - i felt so terrible ... because ... because now , it 's gon na be much harder for her to be with tripp , and i know she sacrificed so much for me already . so has tripp . kayla : as wonderful as i think my stepson is , you had to marry a man you did n't love . you have made sacrifices , too . i mean , you and jj have a certain some -- connection , right ? and i do n't think that his feelings have changed just because you 're mrs . dalton now . haley : i 've been so mad at jj for so long , and , uh , i - i realize now how wrong i was . you know , my -- my wedding present to myself was -- was to forgive him . kayla : so the connection 's still there for you , too ? haley : yeah , yeah , it is , but it 's not like there 's anything i can do about it . i mean , jj and i are n't any freer to be together than tripp and claire are . tripp : of course i still want you . claire : no , no , forget it . i 'm sorry i asked . i 'll see you in three years -- or never . tripp : hey , no , no -- wait , you know , you 're right . you 're right , you 're right . i 'm sorry , all right ? you -- agent smith does n't have a key or anything . it 's not like she 's gon na bust in on us . claire : oh , oh , well , thank you , but i think i 'll skip the mercy sex . tripp : no , no . claire : what ? [ crooning music ] tripp : that seem like a mercy kiss ? claire : well , i do n't know . could we try it again ? rafe : like i said , you 've been a huge help , but taking a leave of absence -- eli : is too damn much . rafe do n't need you to quit the force to be his full- time nanny . gabi can help him , or he can hire a nanny or some child care . rafe : the whole reason rafe took jordan 's son in the first place is because he did n't want him around strangers . is n't that right ? rafe : well , yeah , sort of -- lani : okay , so rafe , this is the best solution and it does n't even have to be a leave of absence . i have a ton of vacation days that i will lose if i do n't use it . do n't you think ? rafe : hm ?

[ scene_break ] kate : well , perhaps you do n't know whom you 're speaking to . i am kate howard , founder and publisher of crimson magazine . i just flew in from paris , and i -- no , my arms are not tired , and i 'm not amused by your adolescent attempt at humor . that might work on my thinning staff at what used to be my last bastion of defense , the front desk , but not on me . you can not afford to call me back in a timely fashion , you can tell donatella that -- scratch that -- that i wo n't free up the time that she requested for a feature on her new accessories line . oh , you do n't have to see it my way . you just have to do it my way . maxie . do i have a prayer that anybody might actually be working here ? [ scoffs ] what the hell ? [ scene_break ] carly : morgan 's fine . he 's safe . but you already know that , do n't you ? yeah . the headmaster from the military school called me and told me all about your little visit , how you showed up trying to throw around money and threats . it 's not going to work . that 's why he 's there . you ca n't get to him . sonny : then i guess i 'm going to have to figure out a way to get to you . [ scene_break ] edward : oh . skye : oh . i 'm sorry . i did n't mean to wake you . edward : oh . ha . are n't you supposed to be on a plane somewhere ? [ scene_break ] olivia : honey , just come . sit . what happened ? did my son screw up again ? lulu : no . it 's -- it 's nothing new , nothing other than what 's already happened . olivia : ok . so you guys are fighting . lulu : [ sighs ] we broke up . olivia : oh . my son is an idiot . lulu : no , it 's not him . he tried very hard to convince me to stay . he bought me flowers . he offered to take me to a nice dinner . olivia : well , at least he listens to me . lulu : what ? olivia : he came to me for advice the other day about the whole nameplate situation . i gave him a couple of pointers . but honestly , it sounds like maybe your mind was already made up ? lulu : no , no , no . i -- he lied to me about something , and he said under the same circumstances , he would do it again . olivia : oh . can i ask what was the lie about ? lulu : it was about my brother . he 's in trouble , and i ca n't be with someone who ca n't be completely honest with me . that 's how my dad was with my mom . he moved to the suburbs to make her happy , but it was a lie . he was never really happy . and i do n't want to be in a relationship with someone that feels like they need to put on a happy face and not say what they 're really feeling . olivia : honey , dante meant well . he came to talk to me for advice about this . he would n't even tell me what the secret was about . i know that it was killing him to not be straight with you about it . lulu : yeah , but people who love each other should n't keep secrets . olivia : i agree . i 'm dante 's mother , so i know i 'm biased . but honestly , if dante not coming clean with you about lucky is really the deal breaker here , i got to tell you , i think your expectations might be a little bit high . and i would hate to see you wind up all alone because of it . [ scene_break ] molly : hey . where 's jason ? sam : hey . they just took him to run a couple more tests . he 'll be back soon . come on in . molly : everything 's awful , is n't it ? sam : hey . i know you 're worried about krissy . i am , too . but we have to try and focus and be positive and hope she gets out of recovery soon . molly : well , it 's not just the surgery . things are about to get a lot worse between kristina , uncle sonny , and mom . sam : why ? molly : mom thinks kristina got her bone fragment from all the time . kiefer hit her , but i think it might have been the car bomb that uncle sonny set to try to kill johnny . sam : well , molly , it 's too soon to jump to conclusions . molly : i know . but what if it 's true ? what if kristina 's own dad is the one who put her in here ? [ scene_break ] carly : are you threatening me now ? i mean , is that it ? is that what it 's come to -- you 're trying to threaten me ? sonny : you know i 'd never hurt you , carly . carly : you do n't think josslyn growing up without her father hurts me ? you do n't think that hurts , sonny ? sonny : how many times have we gone over this ? i acted to protect your daughter . if you do n't like my methods , there 's nothing i can do about that . but as far as morgan 's concerned , i want to see him , that 's all . i should be able to see him . carly : ok , fine . you know when you can see him ? in november , when he comes home for thanksgiving . that 's when i get to see him . and you can stop by . but i am done protecting morgan from who you really are . i 'm not going to make the same mistake that i made with michael . sonny : you want to turn morgan against me , and you want to pay me back for what happened with jax . carly : no , morgan is old enough to make his own decisions , all right ? i 'm going to tell him the truth , so whatever decision he makes , he will be well informed . sonny : do n't do this , 'cause you 're making it worse for everybody . carly : i 'm making it worse ? sonny : yes , you are . carly : why are you so obsessed with morgan ? is n't kristina having major surgery right now ? should n't you be focusing on her ? you know why you 're not ? because i 'm telling you -- you ca n't see morgan , and you always want what you ca n't have . go be with your daughter . alexis has given you complete access . go worry about kristina . leave morgan alone . sonny : hey , listen . listen . shawn : hey , hey . you need to back off , or i 'll back you off . [ scene_break ] skye : so what 's this plane i 'm supposed to be on ? edward : the quartermaine jet . ethan was here a few hours ago pleading with me to have it all fueled and on the runway , ready to take off and help a damsel in distress . and i could only assume that you are the damsel , and that you have done something that dictated a getaway . skye : it 's been handled . edward : does ethan know that ? he seemed very worried . skye : i do n't need ethan to know any more . i 've already involved him way too much as it is . edward : oh , i think he 's already involved , at least , in his head . skye : oh , he 's a beautiful young man , though . truly , the best of his father . edward : well , the worst of all the spencers is gone for good , i 'm happy to say . i always thought you deserved better . skye : oh , really ? what about tracy ? edward : well , tracy seems to enjoy her own problems . she likes getting herself into them and then back out of it . skye : funny you should mention that . i have a proposition for you . edward : oh . why am i not surprised ? all right . i 'm listening . skye : i came into some highly sensitive information . tracy 's about to get hit in the face with the harsh slap of reality -- sooner rather than later . edward : oh , god . what 's she done now ? skye : i 'm more concerned about you and the fallout . brace yourself . it 's not pretty . [ scene_break ] sonny : what the hell are you still doing here ? she does n't need a guard . jax is n't a threat anymore . carly : you made sure of that . sonny : just like you made sure i ca n't see my son . bring morgan home , carly -- carly : i do n't take orders from you , sonny , at all . sonny : i 'm not gon na play these games . he 's my son . carly : it 's not a game . shawn : i do n't think -- sonny : ok . this is none of your business . you need to back away . back . carly : i 'm fine . shawn , honey , i 'm -- i 'm good , ok ? i 'm fine . shawn : is n't your daughter in surgery , hmm ? and did n't you do enough damage the last time you pulled out your gun ? sonny : does carly know that you just stood by and watched jax take her daughter , and you did n't -- you 're this bodyguard -- carly : stop . just stop . stop , or you 're not seeing morgan again . sonny : ok . we 're not done here by a long shot . carly : yeah . ok . [ scene_break ] lulu : so you 're saying i need to get used to lies if i want to be in a relationship ? olivia : no , no . i 'm not saying that . it 's more just bending with the wind , you know ? you got to remember to weigh the bad against the good when you 're thinking about walking away from someone . you guys got a lot of good . i know that my son is stubborn . i know that . just look where he gets it from but he 's got a good heart . look what he does every day for a living . he goes out there , and he helps people . lulu : but i 'm honestly starting to think if he had to choose between his job and me , he 'd choose his job . olivia : no , no , no , honey . he loves you too much for that . and he 's loyal . he would never leave you . and that 's got to count for something . [ cell phone rings ] lulu : i 'm sorry . olivia : it 's ok . it 's ok . lulu : it 's maxie . i 'm sorry . i got to -- hey . what 's up ? i do n't work for kate anymore . no , i 'm not having a romantic reunion . i 'm heading home . ok . ok . fine . i 'll head into the office now . you owe me . yeah . bye . um , i got to go . i 'm sorry . maxie 's in a jam , and kate had a little emergency or something . olivia : talk about someone who 's always got issues , that 'd be my cousin connie . lulu : yeah . i ca n't wait to see her again . olivia : i guess i get to apologize for all of my family members today . no one understands better than me how impossible she can be , so sorry about that . lulu : i just hope it 's quick . thank you for , you know , this thing . olivia : honey , anytime , ok ? i got my fingers crossed for you kids , and please , just think about what i said , ok ? lulu : i will . olivia : ok . lulu : bye . olivia : bye . olivia : hey . johnny : hey . olivia : what are you doing , following me ? johnny : no . i 'm actually following my father . [ scene_break ] anthony : you were followed here by a nurse ? shaking a tail is not rocket science . i just sent my own kid walking around in circles . darryl : i did n't know she was on me . anthony : oh , you did n't know . how the hell could you not know ? she works for the hospital , not the damn cia . and why the hell was she following you in the first place ? speak up . i could n't hear that . joey : he was too busy skimming pills to notice . anthony : idiot . you and your pill problem are going to blow this entire operation for me . darryl : i 'm sorry . it will never happen again , i swear . anthony : you 're damn right it will never happen again . now i got to clean up your mess . question is , what am i going to do about it ? [ scene_break ] olivia : so you 're following your father around ? that ca n't be good . johnny : yeah , well , i bet you 're about the last person who wants to hear about it , so . olivia : why do n't you try me ? take my mind off my own troubles . johnny : well , he 's acting out , pushing sonny 's buttons , and it 's , in turn , pushing the limits of this truce we got , to say the least . olivia : oh . men like anthony , you ca n't really be surprised , right ? johnny : he 's been -- ever since his curious release from pentonville , he 's been -- i do n't know . he 's initiated this unspoken power struggle . he 's ' going behind my back , pulling strings . he 's using old connections . it 's not good . olivia : a man like anthony 's not going to give up power very easily -- i mean , if at all , so . johnny : the worst thing about it is that he thrives in this state of chaos . it 's what makes him feel normal . and you know , he thinks i 'm nuts and soft for having a truce with sonny . and i 'm telling you , if i 'm being honest , i 'd rather just walk away from the entire situation and move away , start somewhere fresh , you know ? olivia : yeah . johnny : but there are still people here that i care about , and i know if i move away , all hell 's going to break loose , so . olivia : so basically , you 're giving up living life on your own terms so you can stay here and try to manage a situation that you have got no possibility of controlling ? johnny : well , i got a line out on something , and if it pans out , then that will afford me the opportunity to walk . olivia : you 've said that before . you never get very far . so what do you think 's going to make this time any different ? [ scene_break ] anthony : i know she already saw this genius . did she get a good look at you , too ? joey : no . i mean , i do n't think she did . anthony : you do n't think she did , or you know she did n't ? which is it ? joey : i grabbed her from behind . i let darryl put the blindfold on her so we would n't both be made . anthony : wow . somebody actually put their thinking cap on before coming into work . i 'm impressed . darryl : i 'm sorry . anthony : did n't i tell you to keep your mouth shut ? you are becoming a liability to me . and now , you leave me no choice . darryl : please , mr.- anthony : shh . you 're not the sharpest tool in the shed , are you ? for right now , i 'm not going to hurt you . you can consider this your lucky day . any more mistakes , they 'll be your last . [ scene_break ] shawn : it 's decaf . i figured you were wired enough as it is . carly : you know , you always have this uncanny way of showing up when i need you . shawn : yeah . i do n't like bullies . never have . and that 's exactly what sonny is . carly : are you here to tell me that you 're going to take the job at pcu ? shawn : sorry . like i said , i 've got my own lead to follow up on . carly : oh . are you here about a job at gh ? shawn : in a manner of speaking . carly : you either are or you 're not . shawn : let 's just say i 'm waiting to speak to the man in charge . carly : in this case , it 'd be a woman , 'cause robin scorpio is chief of staff . shawn : there you go again , making assumptions . carly : why do n't you clear it up for me ? although i ca n't understand why you 'd rather be a janitor than a professor . that does n't really make much sense to me . shawn : a janitor , huh ? carly : you 're not a doctor . shawn : those are my only two options ? carly : you 're not a doctor . are you going and try to work in the lab or something ? shawn : i tell you what . if i get hired anywhere , i 'll make sure i let you know . but until then , there 's really no point in talking about it . carly : you do n't talk about anything . you did n't even tell me that you were living above kelly 's . shawn : you did n't ask . carly : no , you did n't want me to know , 'cause you did n't want me putting you up at the hotel in a nicer room . shawn : i do n't need a nicer room . carly : i do n't believe that . i do n't . i think you 're staying at kelly 's because you 're trying to prove something , just like you were trying to prove something with not taking the job . shawn : no , i do n't have anything to prove , which is actually the best position to be in . carly : why ca n't you tell me something ? are you trying to drive me crazy ? shawn : no , but i am trying to take your mind off things with sonny . and i think i 'm doing a pretty good job so far , do n't you ? carly : mmm . [ scene_break ] kate : where 's maxie ? lulu : she had something important to take care of , so she asked me to fill in . kate : more important than her job ? lulu : nothing is more important to maxie than her job . kate : well , her absence would indicate otherwise . and what makes you think you 're an acceptable substitute ? you quit as my second assistant , a job that thousands of girls would kill to have . and now , i 'm supposed to , what , rely on you because maxie needs a favor ? lulu : ok . if you do n't want my help , i 'm more than happy to go . kate : oh , no , no . you 're not going to go anywhere until you deal with that . [ scene_break ] molly : dr. drake said kristina 's bone fragment was most likely caused by a fall . sam : ok . well , kiefer beat kristina so bad , she ended up in the hospital twice . molly : i know mom wants to blame kiefer for this , but i do n't think we should rule out uncle sonny , either . he did plant that bomb in johnny 's car . the bone fragment could have happened when the explosion knocked her over . i 'm sure she hit the cement pretty hard . and i 'm also sure that you know better than anyone just how powerful a bomb blast can be . sam : no , no , i do . i do . but the truth is we are never gon na know for sure , so we really should n't waste any time speculating . it 's not going to change kristina 's condition . molly : i guess you 're right . sam : can you do me a favor ? can you leave this theory between the two of us when krissy wakes up ? she needs to focus on her recovery . and i have a feeling if krissy finds out that sonny might be responsible for this , it could ruin their relationship for good . [ scene_break ] johnny : you said a minute ago that talking to me would help you forget about your own problems . everything all right with steve ? olivia : i think you and i are not going to discuss me and steve . johnny : all right . well , for what it 's worth , he seems like a pretty stand - up guy . he 's smart , too . i know you 're safer with him , but are you happier ? olivia : that 's a pretty big question about something that we are not going to discuss . johnny : fair enough . ca n't blame me for asking , though . olivia : john , you need to start taking care of yourself , ok ? before you make any promises to anyone , you ask yourself how it 's going to affect you first . [ scene_break ] anthony : there she is , miss elq herself . tracy : i have security on speed dial . anthony : [ laughs ] i like you . you got spunk . it 's a good quality -- one that 's severely lacking in most people these days . tracy : i do n't appreciate you just showing up here . i do n't have time for your maniacal ramblings . i 'm a busy woman . anthony : even busy women have to eat . come on in , emilio . tracy : what is this ? anthony : [ chuckles ] dinner . it 's something two people share when they 're getting to know each other . i figured we could sit down like the equals we are . [ scene_break ] skye : tracy 's done an excellent job of keeping her financial secrets buried until now . edward : i always thought she did something , but i preferred to look the other way . skye : well , she 's about to get hit in a big way . but i intend to make sure you 're protected . edward : how ? elq is synonymous with the quartermaines . skye : i 've already looked into it . we shelter the bulk of elq from anthony . edward : is that even possible ? skye : yes . we temporarily move elq 's assets into another corporate structure , leaving tracy 's subsidiaries to be taken by anthony . i 'm sure he 'll take her for all she 's worth , but what matters is that you will be protected . edward : hmm . i suppose i should feel bad for tracy , but i find difficulty in summoning up any sympathy for her . she 's the one who got herself , and my company , into this mess . skye : is n't that her specialty ? edward : i do n't know . she 's always been able to handle herself with the men who were after her money . look at luke . skye : hey . maybe i should go try to find luke . i 'll make a play for him again just to get under her skin . edward : oh , no , no , no . i strongly suggest against that . see , you , you 're in a bit of a predicament with the spencer men . you 're still carrying a torch for luke , and his son has just lit one for you . skye : oh , i do n't feel any romantic attraction for ethan . that does n't mean that i ca n't have fun flirting and considering the possibilities . edward : be careful . you 're playing with fire . skye : mmm . and is n't that my specialty . [ scene_break ] lulu : how long has he been like this ? kate : he was here when i showed up . just remove him , then pull some clothes for the photo shoot in the morning and reschedule my lunch with christian . oh , and call federico and find out why he has n't seen the proofs yet . lulu : i do n't work here anymore , remember ? kate : but your good friend maxie does , right ? well , if you want her to continue working here , then i suggest you get busy , ok ? first thing 's first . remove him , or i 'll have him removed . lulu : uh ... spinelli ? it 's me . it 's lulu . moonlight . you ok ? spinelli : gracious greetings , blonde one . lulu : oh , my god . is it really you ? are you back to normal ? spinelli : yeah , it 's me . lulu : that 's great . that 's amazing . that 's wonderful . spinelli : alas , it is not wonderful at all . [ scene_break ] molly : do you think it 's worse to have a dad who 's not around at all , like mine , or one who is but who 's horrible , like uncle sonny ? sam : well , look , i think it 's ok for you to be angry with your uncle sonny , but it does n't cancel out every good thing that he 's ever done . molly : kristina thinks it does . sam : why is kristina so hard on sonny ? hmm . i think it 's because she is exactly like him . they are both emotional , and when they get angry , they lock onto something and nothing can talk them down . molly : is uncle sonny that way because he 's bipolar ? sam : well , i mean , yeah , i think part of it is because of that , and the other part is his personality , just like kristina . i mean , they 're both very stubborn , and they both want their own way all the time . and , i think kristina does n't realize that the harder she is on her father , the worse she 's making it for herself . molly : that car bomb was not kristina 's fault . sam : ok , look , i know , but what i 'm trying to say is krissy might not understand that people are using her to get to sonny . sonny is a very , very powerful man . his children make him vulnerable . molly : well , if uncle sonny 's so powerful and people want to hurt him through his kids , then why does n't he do a better job of protecting them ? [ scene_break ] lulu : so you remember that i 'm lulu , not moonlight ? you remember sam and jason and maxie ? spinelli : yeah . i remember it all . lulu : that is such a huge relief . i mean , people were worried , especially maxie . do you even remember doing the whole jackal pi thing ? spinelli : it was a unique experience . i -- i know who i am , or ... was . but my time as jackal pi is kind of scattered in pieces . it 's like i was beside myself watching this whole other person 's life play out . lulu : wow . i mean , it was kind of fun in the beginning , but then i was a little concerned when you kept doing it that you would act like that forever . spinelli : i remember being in the sewer with maximista . we were looking for something . lulu : a ring . spinelli : yes , uh , fair samantha 's engagement ring . that 's right . lulu : do you remember anything else ? spinelli : um ... i remember being in dangerous proximity to anthony zacchara . lulu : you pulled a gun on him . spinelli : which is absolutely insane . normally , the demented one would send the jackal cowering to the nearest corner . but jackal pi was n't afraid . he ... he was stronger . better . lulu : no , come on . he 's not better . he 's a part of you . he still is . [ scene_break ] anthony : excuse me . tracy : do you mind ? anthony : not in the least . tracy : i was working on that . anthony : well , it 's time for a break . i enjoy pampering the women in my life . tracy : let 's get something straight . i 'm not in your life and i will never be one of your women . anthony : you 'll be the only one . you should at least leave yourself open to the possibility . tracy : you 're not my type . anthony : is that right ? so enlighten me . what is your type ? tracy : the opposite of you . anthony : come on . give me some parameters at least . maybe a few things i could work on . tracy : uh - huh . i do n't have enough paper for the list . anthony : oh , you 're tough . why do n't we eat . [ sniffs ] mmm , does n't this smell delicious ? tracy : i 'm not hungry . more than that , i 'm not impressed . so why do n't you stop wasting my time and tell me what you 're after . anthony : all in due time , my dear . there 's no reason to spoil the fine gourmet meal or the mood with premature indigestion . [ scene_break ] edward : anthony zacchara is ruthless . if you limit his take by sheltering too much of elq , what 's to keep him from turning on you ? skye : anthony and i have come to an understanding of sorts . he 's given me some assurances . edward : he 's a thug . he is a few rungs lower than corinthos , if that 's possible . his word means nothing . you are risking your life if you do business with him . skye : oh , come on , grandfather , it 's not like his circle is foreign to me , you know . i was with lorenzo . i had his child . edward : you loved lorenzo . anthony 's using you just as a means to an end . skye : who 's to say i 'm not using him ? i 'm sorry , grandfather . i 'm sorry it got to be such a mess . i really should have handled this better , protected you from the beginning , but ... i had a selfish moment . edward : we all have them , my dear . well , anyway , the jet is readied for you , and the pilot has been given instructions to take you anywhere you say with no questions asked . skye : thank you . edward : promise me one thing ? you wo n't be a stranger . please bring lila rae . skye : i promise . edward : and , skye ... please be careful . you do n't know what anthony might be planning . [ scene_break ] molly : johnny ! are you here to see kristina ? johnny : no . something with your sister ? molly : yeah , she 's having an operation . johnny : i 'm sorry to hear that . what kind of operation ? molly : well , there 's a bone chip in her spine . i think it happened when your car blew up . johnny : oh , wow . you must be pretty worried about her . let me ask you , is your uncle sonny here ? molly : he was with kristina when they came to take her for the operation . he said he was gon na stay . johnny : ok , well , he 's probably understandably pretty messed up right now , and he would n't like it if he found out that i was here , so you ca n't tell him , all right ? molly : ok . johnny : but i want to help . do you have a cell phone ? something ? molly : yeah . right here . johnny : i 'm gon na put my number in here . and i want you to call me when kristina 's out of surgery . ok ? tell her that i 'll come visit her , i 'll help her , whatever she needs . molly : ok , i 'll tell her . johnny : ok . you remember , you ca n't say a word . molly : do n't worry . i can keep a secret . johnny : all right . prove it .

[ scene_break ] lulu : so you 're saying i need to get used to lies if i want to be in a relationship ? olivia : no , no . i 'm not saying that . it 's more just bending with the wind , you know ? you got to remember to weigh the bad against the good when you 're thinking about walking away from someone . you guys got a lot of good . i know that my son is stubborn . i know that . just look where he gets it from but he 's got a good heart . look what he does every day for a living . he goes out there , and he helps people . lulu : but i 'm honestly starting to think if he had to choose between his job and me , he 'd choose his job . olivia : no , no , no , honey . he loves you too much for that . and he 's loyal . he would never leave you . and that 's got to count for something .

[ scene_break ] molly : dr. drake said kristina 's bone fragment was most likely caused by a fall . sam : ok . well , kiefer beat kristina so bad , she ended up in the hospital twice . molly : i know mom wants to blame kiefer for this , but i do n't think we should rule out uncle sonny , either . he did plant that bomb in johnny 's car . the bone fragment could have happened when the explosion knocked her over . i 'm sure she hit the cement pretty hard . and i 'm also sure that you know better than anyone just how powerful a bomb blast can be . sam : no , no , i do . i do . but the truth is we are never gon na know for sure , so we really should n't waste any time speculating . it 's not going to change kristina 's condition . molly : i guess you 're right . sam : can you do me a favor ? can you leave this theory between the two of us when krissy wakes up ? she needs to focus on her recovery . and i have a feeling if krissy finds out that sonny might be responsible for this , it could ruin their relationship for good . [ scene_break ] johnny : you said a minute ago that talking to me would help you forget about your own problems . everything all right with steve ? olivia : i think you and i are not going to discuss me and steve . johnny : all right . well , for what it 's worth , he seems like a pretty stand - up guy . he 's smart , too . i know you 're safer with him , but are you happier ? olivia : that 's a pretty big question about something that we are not going to discuss . johnny : fair enough . ca n't blame me for asking , though . olivia : john , you need to start taking care of yourself , ok ? before you make any promises to anyone , you ask yourself how it 's going to affect you first . [ scene_break ] anthony : there she is , miss elq herself . tracy : i have security on speed dial . anthony : [ laughs ] i like you . you got spunk . it 's a good quality -- one that 's severely lacking in most people these days . tracy : i do n't appreciate you just showing up here . i do n't have time for your maniacal ramblings . i 'm a busy woman . anthony : even busy women have to eat . come on in , emilio . tracy : what is this ? anthony : [ chuckles ] dinner . it 's something two people share when they 're getting to know each other . i figured we could sit down like the equals we are . [ scene_break ] skye : tracy 's done an excellent job of keeping her financial secrets buried until now . edward : i always thought she did something , but i preferred to look the other way . skye : well , she 's about to get hit in a big way . but i intend to make sure you 're protected . edward : how ? elq is synonymous with the quartermaines . skye : i 've already looked into it . we shelter the bulk of elq from anthony . edward : is that even possible ? skye : yes . we temporarily move elq 's assets into another corporate structure , leaving tracy 's subsidiaries to be taken by anthony . i 'm sure he 'll take her for all she 's worth , but what matters is that you will be protected . edward : hmm . i suppose i should feel bad for tracy , but i find difficulty in summoning up any sympathy for her . she 's the one who got herself , and my company , into this mess . skye : is n't that her specialty ? edward : i do n't know . she 's always been able to handle herself with the men who were after her money . look at luke . skye : hey . maybe i should go try to find luke . i 'll make a play for him again just to get under her skin . edward : oh , no , no , no . i strongly suggest against that . see , you , you 're in a bit of a predicament with the spencer men . you 're still carrying a torch for luke , and his son has just lit one for you . skye : oh , i do n't feel any romantic attraction for ethan . that does n't mean that i ca n't have fun flirting and considering the possibilities . edward : be careful . you 're playing with fire . skye : mmm . and is n't that my specialty . [ scene_break ] lulu : how long has he been like this ? kate : he was here when i showed up . just remove him , then pull some clothes for the photo shoot in the morning and reschedule my lunch with christian . oh , and call federico and find out why he has n't seen the proofs yet . lulu : i do n't work here anymore , remember ? kate : but your good friend maxie does , right ? well , if you want her to continue working here , then i suggest you get busy , ok ? first thing 's first . remove him , or i 'll have him removed . lulu : uh ... spinelli ? it 's me . it 's lulu . moonlight . you ok ? spinelli : gracious greetings , blonde one . lulu : oh , my god . is it really you ? are you back to normal ? spinelli : yeah , it 's me . lulu : that 's great . that 's amazing . that 's wonderful . spinelli : alas , it is not wonderful at all .

[ scene_break ] lulu : so you remember that i 'm lulu , not moonlight ? you remember sam and jason and maxie ? spinelli : yeah . i remember it all . lulu : that is such a huge relief . i mean , people were worried , especially maxie . do you even remember doing the whole jackal pi thing ? spinelli : it was a unique experience . i -- i know who i am , or ... was . but my time as jackal pi is kind of scattered in pieces . it 's like i was beside myself watching this whole other person 's life play out . lulu : wow . i mean , it was kind of fun in the beginning , but then i was a little concerned when you kept doing it that you would act like that forever . spinelli : i remember being in the sewer with maximista . we were looking for something . lulu : a ring . spinelli : yes , uh , fair samantha 's engagement ring . that 's right . lulu : do you remember anything else ? spinelli : um ... i remember being in dangerous proximity to anthony zacchara . lulu : you pulled a gun on him . spinelli : which is absolutely insane . normally , the demented one would send the jackal cowering to the nearest corner . but jackal pi was n't afraid . he ... he was stronger . better . lulu : no , come on . he 's not better . he 's a part of you . he still is . [ scene_break ] anthony : excuse me . tracy : do you mind ? anthony : not in the least . tracy : i was working on that . anthony : well , it 's time for a break . i enjoy pampering the women in my life . tracy : let 's get something straight . i 'm not in your life and i will never be one of your women . anthony : you 'll be the only one . you should at least leave yourself open to the possibility . tracy : you 're not my type . anthony : is that right ? so enlighten me . what is your type ? tracy : the opposite of you . anthony : come on . give me some parameters at least . maybe a few things i could work on . tracy : uh - huh . i do n't have enough paper for the list . anthony : oh , you 're tough . why do n't we eat . [ sniffs ] mmm , does n't this smell delicious ? tracy : i 'm not hungry . more than that , i 'm not impressed . so why do n't you stop wasting my time and tell me what you 're after . anthony : all in due time , my dear . there 's no reason to spoil the fine gourmet meal or the mood with premature indigestion . [ scene_break ] edward : anthony zacchara is ruthless . if you limit his take by sheltering too much of elq , what 's to keep him from turning on you ? skye : anthony and i have come to an understanding of sorts . he 's given me some assurances . edward : he 's a thug . he is a few rungs lower than corinthos , if that 's possible . his word means nothing . you are risking your life if you do business with him . skye : oh , come on , grandfather , it 's not like his circle is foreign to me , you know . i was with lorenzo . i had his child . edward : you loved lorenzo . anthony 's using you just as a means to an end . skye : who 's to say i 'm not using him ? i 'm sorry , grandfather . i 'm sorry it got to be such a mess . i really should have handled this better , protected you from the beginning , but ... i had a selfish moment . edward : we all have them , my dear . well , anyway , the jet is readied for you , and the pilot has been given instructions to take you anywhere you say with no questions asked . skye : thank you . edward : promise me one thing ? you wo n't be a stranger . please bring lila rae . skye : i promise . edward : and , skye ... please be careful . you do n't know what anthony might be planning .

[ scene_break ] hayden : i always liked this hotel . not that it compares to wyndemere , although , a house that large can get lonely pretty fast . nikolas : why are you here , hayden ? hayden : i miss you . nikolas : get out . hayden : that 's your pride talking . nikolas : yeah . my pride , my self - respect , my common sense . hayden : i understand that you feel betrayed . nikolas : obviously you do n't . otherwise , you would n't be -- hayden : i 've been betrayed , too , nikolas ... by my own father . i 've had everything i trusted , the entire foundation of my life ripped out from under me . so i understand how you 're feeling , and i came to tell you that what we had together -- the way we connected , the happiness we felt , and yes , the love , that was real . our marriage was real . do n't throw it away . there has to be a way . [ scene_break ] nathan : ah , easy , tiger . i 'm still recovering from a gunshot wound , technically . dante : sorry , bro . my bad . nathan : it 's all right , besides , the guy you want to hit , he left already . dante : oh , yeah . curtis ashford . yeah . yeah , he kind of had a point , which is annoying . i do n't really have any right to tell him to treat valerie with respect . i do n't really have any business poking my head into valerie 's personal life at all . nathan : look , man , i know your intentions were good , you know , but valerie 's doing all right . she does n't need you to worry about her anymore . dante : i know . but -- i should be focusing on me and lulu , which i am . but i feel like valerie 's kind of left hanging , and i do n't want to see her get hurt . nathan : yeah , but it 's not your call , you know ? look , okay , sometimes the best way to deal with something is to just let it go , you know ? put it in the past and walk away . dante : really ? that what you did with your marriage to claudette ? [ scene_break ] maxie : would you like some water ? i could make you a latte . joe : no , i 'm fine . thank you . nina : i was just telling maxie how beyond honored we are that you 're writing the feature for crimson . joe : i 'm happy to be here . i always enjoyed crimson . i have to say , i 'm sorry to see it struggle , but i 'm very impressed with the way you 're bringing it back . nina : thank you . thank you . maxie : oh , nina has been so creative and resourceful . every time we 've hit a setback , like say blatant sabotage , she 's figured out a way to turn it around . joe : i 'm sorry . did you say `` sabotage ? `` nina : uh , we think . we 're investigating . joe : so the green issue -- maxie : was n't designed that way . the entire print run was tinted green . nina improvised the whole `` ecology `` theme and then wrote an editorial piece to tie it all together . joe : impressive ! nina : thank you . thank you very much . um , well , you know , the stunt -- dropping the pages of the `` real women `` issue . do you remember ? joe : was it more sabotage ? maxie : yes . she figured out a way to turn it into a contest to generate interest . joe : well , it sounds like you guys have a very creative enemy . but who knows what could happen to my issue . [ scene_break ] julian : kristina came out to you ? well , i was n't really expecting that . alexis : well , neither was i . julian : well , i 'm sure you handled it perfectly . i mean , listen , you were absolutely wonderful when lucas told me he was gay . alexis : yeah , well , it 's a lot easier to see what others should do than it is for you to do it yourself . julian : what do you mean ? alexis : [ sighs ] i mean not only did i not handle it perfectly -- by the end of the conversation , she was basically accusing me of being a homophobe . [ scene_break ] lucas : what exactly did she say to you ? kristina : hmm , let 's see . she thinks that i 'm confused , that my professor is influencing me -- lucas : wait . your professor ? kristina : yes . this is the woman that i 'm attracted to . and i 've had -- okay . i 've had bad history of men in the past , so me being attracted to a woman means that i 'm just trying to avoid getting hurt . [ laughs ] like this does n't hurt . lucas : i 'm really sorry you 're going through this , kristina . kristina : yeah , me too . lucas : i mean , if it 's any consolation , even though your mom did n't really handle this the way you 'd like her to , she did n't totally reject you . she did n't slam the door in your face , she did n't turn her back on you . not yet . and the reality is that that 's the way a lot of parents react to a gay child . kristina : well , not my mom . she 's all about marriage equality , equal protection , fairness for all . so why ca n't she apply it to me ? lucas : unfortunately , i think even for the most enlightened parents , the new comes as a shock . i 'm sure she 'll come around . just give her time . [ scene_break ] sam : okay , i guess i can talk about it because most of it 's pretty much public knowledge . raymond berlin , rachel 's father , ran this huge ponzi scheme , and most of his investors lost billions of dollars . and rachel and her father worked `` closely `` together . jason : okay . what about the money ? do you think they were able to hide it , maybe off - shore or something like that ? sam : i mean , i imagine , but there 's no proof . people have been talking about it . there 's rumors . jason : yeah , well , if hayden did have access to that kind of money , how did she end up in port charles letting ric pay her to pretend to be my spouse ? sam : well , i mean , she could have been waiting . hiding out under an assumed name until she could get access to the money . jason : yeah , well , even so . that does n't give me any leverage over nik , and the only reason i 'm involved in this mess is to get elq back for the quartermaines . sam : hey . do n't give up on hayden so fast . she 's married to nikolas . she is the best lead we have . [ scene_break ] nikolas : you 're the one who said we should get married to hold on to elq . hayden : and you said that was n't a good enough reason . you wanted to marry for love . nikolas : right . is n't that the secret of a good con -- to make sure that the mark believes that the whole thing was his idea ? hayden : i was n't conning you . nikolas : you obviously had an agenda , so why do n't you just tell me what it was . was it to just hold on to elq , or did you want more ? did you want to have everything that i hold , including what i was trying to leave for spencer ? hayden : of course not . nikolas : then what was the plan that you had in motion when we got married ? hayden : did you not hear me ? i lost everything when my father went to prison . i wound up in port charles by accident . i needed money , and ric was willing to pay , and so i stumbled across the secret that you knew jason 's identity . then i blackmailed you . and when you called my bluff and tried to kick me out , i went to jason to tell him the truth , and i got shot in the head for my trouble . do you really think that was part of a plan ? [ scene_break ] sam : what do we know about hayden and nikolas ? how did they get involved ? jason : i do n't know . but at some point , hayden figured out that i was n't jake doe and i am in fact jason morgan , and nikolas wanted to keep it a secret . sam : which would explain why he had her living at wyndemere , because she was blackmailing him . jason : yeah , and then , you know , hayden changed her mind or nikolas pissed her off , but at any rate , she came to the garage that day to tell me who i really was . sam : and she got shot before she had a chance . jason : what ? sam : wait a minute . that bullet was meant for you . jason : yeah . sam : okay , well , what if it was n't ? what if hayden , or rachel , was the target all along ? [ scene_break ] nikolas : the shooting was an unfortunate accident . hayden : [ scoffs ] especially unfortunate for me . nikolas : but it never would have happened if you would have just kept to our original agreement . you kept ramping up the blackmail , which , i guess , i should n't be surprised now that i know who you really are . hayden : so i got shot because of my own greed ? nikolas : no . you got shot because you kept insisting on being near jason morgan . someone was trying to kill him that day . and i 'm -- i am sorry that you got caught in the cross fire . hayden : sorry enough to pay my medical bills . sorry enough to invite me into your home when i was recovering . nikolas : yeah , where you proceeded to lie to me and pretend that you lost your memory . hayden : and you pretended to care about me . i tried to be the person you needed me to be , nikolas . i tried to become that person . and then when you got thrown off that terrace , and i thought you might die , my grief and my fear were real . nikolas : you never left my side . hayden : because i wanted you to live . nikolas : or maybe because you knew i was vulnerable . hayden : i did everything i could to help you . nikolas : because you were lying to me the whole time ! [ scene_break ] julian : that 's absurd . i mean , how could kristina accuse you of being a homophobe ? alexis : because she misinterpreted everything i said , and then she overreacted . julian : okay , well , what did you say ? alexis : this woman that she has feelings for is her professor , and she 's significantly older than she is , so i just suggested that maybe the professor was influencing her in some way . julian : so you told her that she might not really be gay , that she might be being led astray by her professor ? alexis : of course not , but that 's what kristina heard . julian : oh . alexis : i just again suggest that she might be confused . julian : what ? sexually confused ? alexis : she 's had some very serious difficult relationships . julian : okay . so you -- you think that she might be turning to women , because she 's afraid to get hurt again ? alexis : i do n't know . it 's possible , i suppose , and i should have kept that possibility to myself , because she got hurt and offended and she was defensive , and i want to be able to take it all back , and i ca n't . i also want to be able to make it right for her , and i do n't know that i can , because i think it is possible that that professor is influencing her in some way . julian : well , what if she is n't being influenced ? what if kristina really is gay ? alexis : fine . wonderful . great . of course , i 'll accept that , and i 'll love her and i 'll be happy that she 's true to herself . but if she is reacting out of confusion and this professor is pressuring her in some way , then as her mother , i need to intervene and do something about it . [ scene_break ] nathan : what happened with claudette was painful , it was ugly . i 'm not proud of the way i handled things , and i do n't want to get into it with maxie , you know ? especially since she was n't even a part of my life at the time . i mean , it 's not like i cheated on her and covered it up . dante : okay , like i cheated on lulu . nathan : that 's not what i meant . i 'm not comparing our situations , all right ? and that 's the point . they 're not even remotely similar . dante : agreed . [ sighs ] still ... nathan : it does n't change the fact that i am keeping a secret , and maxie knows it . [ sighs ] no matter how much she swears it does n't bother her , i know it does . [ scene_break ] maxie : mr. zee , do n't -- nina : nothing is happening to your issue . joe : well , it 's not really my issue . i 'm just contributing a feature . nina : yes . i know . and , listen , that 's why i hired a private investigator . when they find out who 's been sabotaging us , believe me , we 're gon na hunt them down and kick their asses . joe : i 'm sure you will . curtis : you wanted to see me , boss ? nina : yes , our private investigator right here . right there . there he is . please come in . i 'd like to introduce you to joe zee , stylist extraordinaire . this is curtis ashford , our private investigator . curtis : nice to meet you , man . joe : very nice to meet you . nina : yes , yes . mr. zee is writing the next feature for crimson , which is why we need to find out who 's sabotaging us immediately . curtis : understood . nina : yeah . okay , so , um , can you give us a few minutes ? maybe you and mr. zee -- you could talk concepts . maxie : of course . uh , right this way . after you . i 'm sorry about the interruption . i hope the whole sabotage thing did n't discourage you from contributing to crimson . joe : not at all . i enjoy a challenge . so , are we talking concepts ? maxie : before we do , can i just tell you how much i admire your work ? when you were creative director at that magazine that will remain nameless , i learned so much just by studying the way you put things together . i mean , it 's not just something you flip through at the beauty salon . it actually captures the reader 's imagination and makes them think about fashion . that 's what you do . i really want to follow in your footsteps . joe : well , you 're off to a good start . that 's great pair of shoes you 're wearing . [ scene_break ] curtis : whoever sabotaged you -- it ai n't a competitor . nina : how are you so sure ? curtis : your last two issues were a success , but folks in your industry seem to think that crimson 's about to fold . nina : oh , right . i 'm sure they figured it out before i did . curtis : figured what out ? nina : our publisher , julian jerome -- he never thought i would succeed . he only hired me as a placeholder to oversee the magazine until he could stop publication . [ scene_break ] nathan : maxie insists she does n't need to know about claudette , but i know it 's bothering her . dante : with the best of intentions , you guys are kind of building up a wall between you and maxie every time you avoid talking about it . and speaking from experience , if i could go back , obviously i would n't have slept with valerie , but i would have told lulu that first day . i would have dealt with everything that day . nathan : we 're way past that , though . maxie has known about claudette for weeks . dante : does she know that she was your wife ? nathan : no . do you think i should tell her ? dante : i do n't know , man . that 's not my call to make . that 's yours . [ scene_break ] sam : we just assumed that rachel , who is actually hayden , was hit by a bullet that was meant for you . jason : okay , hold on for just a minute . sam : okay . jason : the gunman was right outside the garage . he admitted that i was the target . he said that as he was pulling the trigger , jordan ashford grabbed his hand , causing the bullet to go wild . sam : okay . wait a minute . all right . so , for the sake of argument , let 's just say there were two shooters that day and sean butler 's bullet did go wild . what if the other gunman hit the person that he was supposed to ? [ scene_break ] hayden : when should i have told you , nikolas ? and do n't say `` on our wedding day . `` we just had just come from that ridiculous camelot chapel , and you turned what should have been a tacky , embarrassing quickie wedding into something romantic and beautiful . i was n't just gon na throw all that away , because some random guy i used to know called me `` rachel . `` nikolas : but he called you by your real name ! hayden : no ! no . rachel berlin does n't exist anymore . i 'm hayden barnes . actually , i 'm hayden cassadine now . i 'm -- i 'm far from perfect . i 've lied , i 've manipulated , but so have you . you 've gone behind my back . you 've been far less than truthful . but when you said you wanted a real marriage , one based on love , i let myself believe you , despite everything that you 've done . i was willing to look past all of that and forgive you . why ca n't you do the same thing for me ? nikolas : hold -- no , hold on . you want me to ignore that you married me for my money ? hayden : i did n't -- nikolas : that you tried to maneuver me into signing elq over to you -- hayden : i was n't -- nikolas : listen . no , no , no . hayden : i was trying to protect you . nikolas : do you know what it would mean for us to try and be together right now ? hmm ? even if your intentions were real , even if your love for me was real , i could -- i would constantly be second - guessing your every motive . it would torture us both . do you understand that ? hayden : but we found a way to trust each other once before . nikolas : yeah , right , and look where it got us . every bit of trust that we built together has been destroyed . this farce of a marriage is over . [ scene_break ] kristina : the good news is , if you can even call it that , is that everyone knows that i was suspended , so i do n't have to lie and scramble to cover it up anymore . lucas : well , all right . that 's great . how did your parents handle it ? kristina : my dad was furious and disappointed . my mom was more supportive . it 's funny , though . i almost respect my dad 's reaction more . after he cooled off , he said that he loves me no matter what . and i believe him , to a point . i think that if i ever had the courage to tell him that i 'm maybe , possibly gay , i think his head would explode . lucas : okay , well , hold on . i 'm more interested in how you feel right now . so , does maybe , possibly gay describe how you 're feeling ? kristina : all i know for sure is that i am deeply , completely confused about everything ... except for my attraction to parker . lucas : okay , well , it 's good to start with what you do know . i mean , as for the rest of it , i do n't know . i mean , this may describe a one - time crush , or it may describe how you 're gon na feel for the rest of your life . i do n't know . i ca n't predict the future . but neither can you . kristina : so , what ? i 'm just supposed to wait and see who i 'm attracted to next ? lucas : no , you 're supposed to trust your own feelings . trust how you feel . not anybody else -- their opinions , their expectations of you , or not even a label that you put on yourself . kristina : okay . great . now , how do i explain that to my mother ? [ doors opens ] julian : [ clears throat ] [ scene_break ] maxie : these are my favorite shoes , but i ca n't take any credit . they were a gift from my boyfriend . joe : well , he has excellent taste -- in footwear and in girlfriends . maxie : yeah , that 's what i 'm afraid of . joe : why ? maxie : forget that i said that . um , maybe we should discuss concepts . joe : okay , i 'll never be able to concentrate if you do n't tell me what 's going on . i mean , why are you so afraid of your boyfriend 's great taste ? maxie : i 'm afraid of his ex - girlfriend , who he wo n't even admit he has . joe : well , that does n't sound very good . maxie : i know , right ? [ sighs ] okay . my boyfriend is a cop , and he was recently shot . he 's fine . thank god . but when he was on painkillers , he said , `` i love you , claudette . `` and when i questioned him about it , he lied . then when he was ready to admit the truth , i told him i did n't want to hear it . and now i ca n't stop thinking about it . joe : would you like some advice ? maxie : please . joe : do n't borrow trouble . it sounds like you and your boyfriend have a great thing going . this claudette is in his past . just leave her there . maxie : so simple and brilliant . you 're right . joe , if you ever tire of fashion , you could have a career as a relationship counselor . joe : oh , come here . [ elevator doors open ] maxie : nathan ! what are you doing here ? [ scene_break ] jason : okay , let 's go with your theory that there was a second gunman at the garage . sam : okay . jason : who was the target ? was it hayden , or was it rachel ? sam : rachel . for all of the reasons we just said . raymond berlin stole billions of dollars from people . i 'm sure someone would track her down to port charles . jason : where she becomes involved with nikolas cassadine , somebody else who 's worth millions of dollars . [ scene_break ] hayden : you want a divorce ? nikolas : how can you be so shocked ? hayden : how should i -- how should i sound ? i mean , a few days ago , we loved each other , and now you want to act like that never happened ? nikolas : i do n't know . i just -- i think i should cut my losses , and i think that -- i think that you should , too . you know ? it was a hell of a con , but it failed . and it 's time to move on . [ door opens ] hayden : so , just like that , you pay me off , and i walk away ? nikolas : pay -- wait , if you 're referring to the $ 5 million -- hayden : that you provided in the prenuptial agreement . nikolas : hayden , our marriage was a fraud . you did n't even use your real name . i have no problem with having that part of the prenup invalidated . hayden : so , not only are you rejecting me , you 're leaving me penniless . nikolas : look , you -- you can keep the clothes and the personal items that i paid for . hayden : [ scoffs ] nikolas : but whatever you brought is what you leave with and not a penny more . [ door closes ] hayden : i do n't think so . [ scene_break ] maxie : my boyfriend , detective nathan west . nathan , this is gifted stylist and superstar of fashion publishing , joe zee . nathan : it 's nice to meet you . [ cell phone chimes ] joe : and you . sorry , excuse me . maxie : joe is doing a guest feature for crimson ! we were just about to discuss concepts . nathan : so , now would be a bad time to ask you to take a walk with me ? joe : actually , it would be the perfect time . i have to catch the next flight back to la . maxie : now ? why ? joe : i 'm sorry . a client whose name i ca n't disclose had a disastrous red carpet appearance and needs immediate consult . maxie : your feature -- joe : is going to happen . tell nina do n't worry . i 'll facetime you tomorrow , and i 'm thinking footwear . maxie : yes ! okay ! perfect ! ca n't wait ! [ cell phone rings ] joe : chrissy teigen . i prefer the blue . go for the blue . maxie : is n't he amazing ? [ laughs ] nathan : yeah . nina : okay , joe . i 'm ready for you . joe ? where 'd mr. zee go ? maxie : oh . he had a fashion emergency . he had to leave . but he 's committed to the feature . he said he 's gon na facetime you tomorrow , and he 's thinking footwear . nina : [ gasps ] really ? [ giggles ] nathan : well , in the meantime , i was wondering if i could steal maxie for a walk . nina : of course ! maxie : are you sure ? nina : yes . yes . walk in the park . that 's what parks -- why they were created , so people in love can walk through them . maxie : okay . nina : so , go . make the world a more romantic place . maxie : okay . nina : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] curtis : hi , this is alfred bartle . i 'm with the accounting department with crimson magazine . to whom am i speaking ? hi , barbara . uh , sorry to bother . we were charged for binding last issue -- one million copies -- and since the pages went out loose due to printer error , we would like to dispute that charge . it was n't an error ? can you tell me who authorized it ? [ scene_break ] julian : lucas . hey . what a surprise . what are you doing here ? lucas : hey . julian : hey . lucas : well , i wanted to give you the good news in person . julian : all right . lucas : brad and i have set a date . we 're gon na get married in may . julian : oh ! congratulations ! oh , it 's about damn time . way to go . lucas : yeah , thank you . we 're pretty happy about it . alexis : excellent . that 's the best news i 've heard all day . [ laughs ] congratulations . lucas : thank you . well , we know we want the whole family there . that 's essential . and we plan to have a lot of dancing at the reception . that 's essential . and all the rest of it 's up for debate . alexis : good . julian : nice . [ cell phone rings ] julian : oh , excuse me . [ cell phone rings ] lucas : excuse me . julian : no problem . lucas : oh , uh , i got to go . hospital 's calling me in early . julian : oh , well , you know what ? i 'll walk you out 'cause i 'm needed at the office , so , all right , i 'll see you later . excuse me . alexis : all right . bye . julian : mm . see you later . alexis : all right . oh , and give brad my best , will you please ? lucas : uh , i will do that , and thank you . thank you . without you , none of this is possible . alexis : aww . okay . thanks . [ sighs ] [ door closes ] alexis : that 's nice . i 'm really happy for brad and lucas . kristina : obviously you do n't have a problem with anyone being gay , as long as it 's not me . [ scene_break ] maxie : we should do this more often . nathan : [ sighs ] maxie : i get so caught up with work and socializing . i never take time to just be with the one i love , without phones or electronics or 100 million other things that distract us from what really matters . nathan : you matter to me more than anyone or anything . that 's why i have to be honest with you about claudette . maxie : no , stop right there . someone extremely wise recently said to me , `` claudette , whether dog or human , is in the past . `` let 's leave her there . nathan : no , maxie , we ca n't , all right ? i have to tell you the truth . claudette was not my ex - girlfriend . she was my wife . maxie : i do n't understand . claudette was your wife ? nathan : yes . maxie : but -- you -- you never told me you 'd been married . nathan : i know , and i 'm sorry . maxie , i know that a lie of omission is still a lie . maxie : i do n't understand . you know pretty much everything about me , even the bad stuff . especially the bad stuff . so why would n't you tell me this extremely important thing about you ? nathan : because , maxie , my marriage with claudette did n't end well . [ scene_break ] kristina : are you sure that you 're happy for brad and lucas ? maybe one of them is influencing the other . alexis : [ sighs ] kristina : or maybe lucas is just confused and does n't really feel this way . alexis : all right . that 's enough . maybe lucas and brad are adults , which is more than i can say for you right now with the way that you 're behaving . kristina : and i 'm just a stupid kid , right ? alexis : that is not what i meant , and you know it ! kristina : oh , i must have misunderstood something that you said . you could never be controlling or judgmental . alexis : that is not fair . kristina : oh , i 'm not fair ? maybe i get that from my dad . it 's one of the things that i love about him . he messes up , he makes mistakes , and then he admits it and apologizes . you never will . so , here we are . you 're right , i 'm wrong . message received . [ door slams ] alexis : yes , i 'd like the extension for professor parker forsyth , please . [ scene_break ] curtis : you made the right decision when you hired me . nina : so , you 've made progress ? curtis : better than that . i found out who 's behind the sabotage . nina : are you kidding me ? what lowlife weasel is trying to tank crimson ? [ julian enters ] [ scene_break ] sam : rachel seduces nikolas pretending to be little miss nobody , hayden barnes , knowing that the con she 's running with you will either fall apart or she can walk away from it , because nikolas is a way bigger target . jason : yeah . but why would she double - cross him ? she came to the garage that day to tell me who i really am , and we know nikolas did n't want that to happen . sam : okay , you 're right . if hayden was conning nikolas , she would at least pretend to keep his secrets . i do n't know what to do . i thought we were on to something . jason : just calm down , okay ? we just need to take a step back here . before we figure out who had the motive to shoot hayden or rachel or whatever her name is , we really need to find out if there really was a second shooter . sam : okay , how do we do that ? jason : well , we could go talk to the shooter that we know existed -- shawn butler . [ scene_break ] nikolas : i advise you not to fight this divorce . you 'll end up spending money you do n't have on a lawyer . this prenup is iron - clad . hayden : the prenup does n't apply . nikolas : the hell it does n't ! hayden : it does n't apply , because we 're not getting a divorce . nikolas : and why is that ? hayden : because of what i know about you . [ next_on ] nathan ( to maxie ) : i will tell you everything . i 'll tell you how it happened . please , just hear me out . nina ( to julian ) : he found out who 's undermining the magazine . finn ( to tracy ) : what the hell are you doing ? get back in that bed . franco ( to elizabeth ) : well , i was thinking you could move in with jason . sam ( to shawn ) : we have a few questions to ask you if that 's okay .
alexis admits to julian that she is having difficulty processing kristina 's admissions of her same - sex interest in her professor . she does not want to appear to be a homophobe and merely has concerns that kristina 's professor may be manipulating her daughter . meanwhile , lucas comes by to announce he and brad are setting a wedding date . alexis congratulates him and offers her blessing . hearing that , kristina angrily declares to her mom that it 's obvious she 's ok with someone being gay as long as it 's not her daughter . nina and maxie invite a fashion consultant to crimson whom maxie follows and admires . nina also demands that curtis drop what he 's doing to meet with her and tell her about any or all progress he 's made in finding out who may be sabotaging their magazine . dante and nathan talk about trust issues in their respective relationships and nathan concludes he has to come clean with maxie and admit that he was ( or maybe still is ) married to claudette . sam and jason are obsessively brainstorming about the mystery of hayden who is really rachel berlin , daughter of crooked rich investor , raymond berlin , coming to town to scam him for money . then she revealed she knew he was not jake doe before anyone else knew he was jason . yet right before she could reveal it , she suddenly got shot . sam concludes it may not have been shawn butler 's attempt to shoot jason ( then jake ) nor an accident that hayden got shot . they wonder if there might have been another shooter who had motive to shoot and kill either rachel berlin or the alias of hayden barnes and what the motive might be . nikolas angrily concludes to hayden / rachel that they are through . their marriage was based on fraud and so it could be easily legally annulled . yet when she is unsuccessful urging him to give her another chance , she concludes to him if he does that , she can reveal everything she knows about him .

[ cell phone rings ] curtis : [ sighs ] ashford . nina : mr. ashford . it 's -- curtis : nina clay . always good to hear your voice , boss . nina : good to hear your voice , too . curtis : so , uh , what can i do for you ? nina : have you found out who 's sabotaging my magazine ? curtis : uh , yeah . i 've been , uh , working hard on it . i 'm working on it as we speak . i 've been putting in a lot of hours . nina : well , that 's good to know . what have you found out ? curtis : well , i ca n't get into it on the phone right now . nina : well , why do n't you come here and tell me in person ? curtis : now is n't the best time . nina : it 's a great time for me , and like you said earlier , i am the boss . curtis : and what the boss says , goes . i 'm on my way .

[ scene_break ] kristina : [ sighs ] lucas : hey . kristina : you are just in time to save me . i 'm literally driving myself crazy . lucas : oh . just generally , or for a specific reason ? kristina : reasons . plural . i do n't even know where to start . but you did n't come here to listen to me whine . lucas : oh , were you whining ? no , you were n't whining . kristina : it 's close enough . oh , if you 're looking for your dad , he is n't home . lucas : oh , okay . well , i guess that 's what i get for not calling first . do you mind if i stay ? kristina : i think i just mentioned that i was driving myself crazy , but you 're welcome to stay as long as you want . this actually gives me a chance to talk to you . [ scene_break ] jason : [ groans ] [ chuckles ] hi . sam : hey . this is beginning to be a habit . jason : what , you stopping by ? sam : no , you hard at work . what are you building ? jason : no . i 'm not building . i 'm assembling . sam : [ laughing ] oh . jason : trying to get this done so i can put it in danny and jake 's room . but it 's not really cooperating . sam : do you need some help ? jason : sure . you 've already proven that you 're a better mechanic than i am . sam : we do know that , yes . jason : [ chuckles ] maybe you 're a better assembler . here , go ahead . sam : okay . jason : give it a shot . sam : watch and learn . jason : i 'm telling you . these pieces do n't fit together . sam : oh , you have the wrong tool . jason : [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] hayden : hello . husband . [ scene_break ] maxie : so , i thought , to start with , we could discuss general concepts . you know , brainstorm . see if there 's a specific topic he 's leaning towards , like evening wear , accessories , shoes . please let me be shoes . i 've pulled some of our best layouts and style updates just as a reference 'cause we do n't want to dictate what he 's doing . it 's a honor to have him do a guest feature . nina : i said that . maxie : this is a huge coup for us . nina : i said that , too . maxie : such a huge coup that i 'm still not quite clear how you pulled it off . how 'd you get superstar joe zee to agree to do a guest feature for crimson magazine ? joe : simple . she asked . [ scene_break ] dante : sorry , man . curtis : it 's all good . dante : ah , curtis , right ? curtis : i 'm pretty sure you know my name by now . dante : yeah , i do . i know you 're also hanging out with valerie . curtis : and ? dante : and she 's a good person , been through a tough time . make sure you treat her with respect . curtis : valerie told me a little bit about what went on between you two , detective falconeri . dante : yeah . curtis : you know , how she lives her life and who she dates is really none of your business . and do n't ever talk to me about respect . [ scene_break ] jason : okay . yeah . nice work . you clearly can tell when i need your help and you come to the rescue . sam : [ laughs ] that 's very sweet , but something tells me you would have been able to do this by yourself . jason : it does n't seem likely . sam : how do you like your new place ? jason : well , i 'm starting to get used to it . sam : who chose the furniture ? jason : what makes you think i did n't choose the furniture ? sam : did you ? jason : i did choose the furniture . hmm . actually , the realtor , she put me in touch with a nice lady named jen , and she showed me three pictures of rooms , one of them i liked , and she said she understood my taste . and she was right . she got everything i needed . sam : no , no , no . not everything . jason : yes . i had to find the pictures for myself . sam : i like where you put them . jason : yeah . it 's kind of weird . i do n't remember the pictures , but they make the place feel like home . [ scene_break ] lucas : mm . so , uh , you wanted to talk to me about something . kristina : yeah . i do . uh , i 'm -- lucas : what 's up ? kristina : i 'm just -- i 'm being , uh , ridiculous . i 'm sure you already realized this , but the friend that i was talking about on valentine 's day , the one who was sexually confused , is me . i 'm really attracted to this woman . lucas : okay . how does it feel to say that out loud ? kristina : [ laughs ] scary . like i 'm taking a huge risk and exposing myself . but at the same time , it 's kind of a relief . lucas : i know the feeling . kristina : the thing is -- i told my mom this morning . she 's so liberal , so politically correct , that i convinced myself that she would be okay with it . lucas : mm - hmm . kristina : okay with me . and she 's not . [ scene_break ] julian : you said you were stalking me . alexis : [ sighs ] because of kristina . julian : okay . alexis : she told me something this morning . and she asked me not to tell her father . but you 're not her father . you 're my husband , so i can tell you . although , i should probably tell him first . but then again , we 're protected by spousal privilege , right ? julian : oh , my god . what the hell happened ? did she rob a bank or something ? alexis : no . she came out to me . [ scene_break ] hayden : i always liked this hotel . not that it compares to wyndemere , although , a house that large can get lonely pretty fast . nikolas : why are you here , hayden ? hayden : i miss you . nikolas : get out . hayden : that 's your pride talking . nikolas : yeah . my pride , my self - respect , my common sense . hayden : i understand that you feel betrayed . nikolas : obviously you do n't . otherwise , you would n't be -- hayden : i 've been betrayed , too , nikolas ... by my own father . i 've had everything i trusted , the entire foundation of my life ripped out from under me . so i understand how you 're feeling , and i came to tell you that what we had together -- the way we connected , the happiness we felt , and yes , the love , that was real . our marriage was real . do n't throw it away . there has to be a way . [ scene_break ] nathan : ah , easy , tiger . i 'm still recovering from a gunshot wound , technically . dante : sorry , bro . my bad . nathan : it 's all right , besides , the guy you want to hit , he left already . dante : oh , yeah . curtis ashford . yeah . yeah , he kind of had a point , which is annoying . i do n't really have any right to tell him to treat valerie with respect . i do n't really have any business poking my head into valerie 's personal life at all . nathan : look , man , i know your intentions were good , you know , but valerie 's doing all right . she does n't need you to worry about her anymore . dante : i know . but -- i should be focusing on me and lulu , which i am . but i feel like valerie 's kind of left hanging , and i do n't want to see her get hurt . nathan : yeah , but it 's not your call , you know ? look , okay , sometimes the best way to deal with something is to just let it go , you know ? put it in the past and walk away . dante : really ? that what you did with your marriage to claudette ? [ scene_break ] maxie : would you like some water ? i could make you a latte . joe : no , i 'm fine . thank you . nina : i was just telling maxie how beyond honored we are that you 're writing the feature for crimson . joe : i 'm happy to be here . i always enjoyed crimson . i have to say , i 'm sorry to see it struggle , but i 'm very impressed with the way you 're bringing it back . nina : thank you . thank you . maxie : oh , nina has been so creative and resourceful . every time we 've hit a setback , like say blatant sabotage , she 's figured out a way to turn it around . joe : i 'm sorry . did you say `` sabotage ? `` nina : uh , we think . we 're investigating . joe : so the green issue -- maxie : was n't designed that way . the entire print run was tinted green . nina improvised the whole `` ecology `` theme and then wrote an editorial piece to tie it all together . joe : impressive ! nina : thank you . thank you very much . um , well , you know , the stunt -- dropping the pages of the `` real women `` issue . do you remember ? joe : was it more sabotage ? maxie : yes . she figured out a way to turn it into a contest to generate interest . joe : well , it sounds like you guys have a very creative enemy . but who knows what could happen to my issue . [ scene_break ] julian : kristina came out to you ? well , i was n't really expecting that . alexis : well , neither was i . julian : well , i 'm sure you handled it perfectly . i mean , listen , you were absolutely wonderful when lucas told me he was gay . alexis : yeah , well , it 's a lot easier to see what others should do than it is for you to do it yourself . julian : what do you mean ? alexis : [ sighs ] i mean not only did i not handle it perfectly -- by the end of the conversation , she was basically accusing me of being a homophobe . [ scene_break ] lucas : what exactly did she say to you ? kristina : hmm , let 's see . she thinks that i 'm confused , that my professor is influencing me -- lucas : wait . your professor ? kristina : yes . this is the woman that i 'm attracted to . and i 've had -- okay . i 've had bad history of men in the past , so me being attracted to a woman means that i 'm just trying to avoid getting hurt . [ laughs ] like this does n't hurt . lucas : i 'm really sorry you 're going through this , kristina . kristina : yeah , me too . lucas : i mean , if it 's any consolation , even though your mom did n't really handle this the way you 'd like her to , she did n't totally reject you . she did n't slam the door in your face , she did n't turn her back on you . not yet . and the reality is that that 's the way a lot of parents react to a gay child . kristina : well , not my mom . she 's all about marriage equality , equal protection , fairness for all . so why ca n't she apply it to me ? lucas : unfortunately , i think even for the most enlightened parents , the new comes as a shock . i 'm sure she 'll come around . just give her time . [ scene_break ] sam : okay , i guess i can talk about it because most of it 's pretty much public knowledge . raymond berlin , rachel 's father , ran this huge ponzi scheme , and most of his investors lost billions of dollars . and rachel and her father worked `` closely `` together . jason : okay . what about the money ? do you think they were able to hide it , maybe off - shore or something like that ? sam : i mean , i imagine , but there 's no proof . people have been talking about it . there 's rumors . jason : yeah , well , if hayden did have access to that kind of money , how did she end up in port charles letting ric pay her to pretend to be my spouse ? sam : well , i mean , she could have been waiting . hiding out under an assumed name until she could get access to the money . jason : yeah , well , even so . that does n't give me any leverage over nik , and the only reason i 'm involved in this mess is to get elq back for the quartermaines . sam : hey . do n't give up on hayden so fast . she 's married to nikolas . she is the best lead we have . [ scene_break ] nikolas : you 're the one who said we should get married to hold on to elq . hayden : and you said that was n't a good enough reason . you wanted to marry for love . nikolas : right . is n't that the secret of a good con -- to make sure that the mark believes that the whole thing was his idea ? hayden : i was n't conning you . nikolas : you obviously had an agenda , so why do n't you just tell me what it was . was it to just hold on to elq , or did you want more ? did you want to have everything that i hold , including what i was trying to leave for spencer ? hayden : of course not . nikolas : then what was the plan that you had in motion when we got married ? hayden : did you not hear me ? i lost everything when my father went to prison . i wound up in port charles by accident . i needed money , and ric was willing to pay , and so i stumbled across the secret that you knew jason 's identity . then i blackmailed you . and when you called my bluff and tried to kick me out , i went to jason to tell him the truth , and i got shot in the head for my trouble . do you really think that was part of a plan ? [ scene_break ] sam : what do we know about hayden and nikolas ? how did they get involved ? jason : i do n't know . but at some point , hayden figured out that i was n't jake doe and i am in fact jason morgan , and nikolas wanted to keep it a secret . sam : which would explain why he had her living at wyndemere , because she was blackmailing him . jason : yeah , and then , you know , hayden changed her mind or nikolas pissed her off , but at any rate , she came to the garage that day to tell me who i really was . sam : and she got shot before she had a chance . jason : what ? sam : wait a minute . that bullet was meant for you . jason : yeah . sam : okay , well , what if it was n't ? what if hayden , or rachel , was the target all along ? [ scene_break ] nikolas : the shooting was an unfortunate accident . hayden : [ scoffs ] especially unfortunate for me . nikolas : but it never would have happened if you would have just kept to our original agreement . you kept ramping up the blackmail , which , i guess , i should n't be surprised now that i know who you really are . hayden : so i got shot because of my own greed ? nikolas : no . you got shot because you kept insisting on being near jason morgan . someone was trying to kill him that day . and i 'm -- i am sorry that you got caught in the cross fire . hayden : sorry enough to pay my medical bills . sorry enough to invite me into your home when i was recovering . nikolas : yeah , where you proceeded to lie to me and pretend that you lost your memory . hayden : and you pretended to care about me . i tried to be the person you needed me to be , nikolas . i tried to become that person . and then when you got thrown off that terrace , and i thought you might die , my grief and my fear were real . nikolas : you never left my side . hayden : because i wanted you to live . nikolas : or maybe because you knew i was vulnerable . hayden : i did everything i could to help you . nikolas : because you were lying to me the whole time ! [ scene_break ] julian : that 's absurd . i mean , how could kristina accuse you of being a homophobe ? alexis : because she misinterpreted everything i said , and then she overreacted . julian : okay , well , what did you say ? alexis : this woman that she has feelings for is her professor , and she 's significantly older than she is , so i just suggested that maybe the professor was influencing her in some way . julian : so you told her that she might not really be gay , that she might be being led astray by her professor ? alexis : of course not , but that 's what kristina heard . julian : oh . alexis : i just again suggest that she might be confused . julian : what ? sexually confused ? alexis : she 's had some very serious difficult relationships . julian : okay . so you -- you think that she might be turning to women , because she 's afraid to get hurt again ? alexis : i do n't know . it 's possible , i suppose , and i should have kept that possibility to myself , because she got hurt and offended and she was defensive , and i want to be able to take it all back , and i ca n't . i also want to be able to make it right for her , and i do n't know that i can , because i think it is possible that that professor is influencing her in some way . julian : well , what if she is n't being influenced ? what if kristina really is gay ? alexis : fine . wonderful . great . of course , i 'll accept that , and i 'll love her and i 'll be happy that she 's true to herself . but if she is reacting out of confusion and this professor is pressuring her in some way , then as her mother , i need to intervene and do something about it . [ scene_break ] nathan : what happened with claudette was painful , it was ugly . i 'm not proud of the way i handled things , and i do n't want to get into it with maxie , you know ? especially since she was n't even a part of my life at the time . i mean , it 's not like i cheated on her and covered it up . dante : okay , like i cheated on lulu . nathan : that 's not what i meant . i 'm not comparing our situations , all right ? and that 's the point . they 're not even remotely similar . dante : agreed . [ sighs ] still ... nathan : it does n't change the fact that i am keeping a secret , and maxie knows it . [ sighs ] no matter how much she swears it does n't bother her , i know it does . [ scene_break ] maxie : mr. zee , do n't -- nina : nothing is happening to your issue . joe : well , it 's not really my issue . i 'm just contributing a feature . nina : yes . i know . and , listen , that 's why i hired a private investigator . when they find out who 's been sabotaging us , believe me , we 're gon na hunt them down and kick their asses . joe : i 'm sure you will . curtis : you wanted to see me , boss ? nina : yes , our private investigator right here . right there . there he is . please come in . i 'd like to introduce you to joe zee , stylist extraordinaire . this is curtis ashford , our private investigator . curtis : nice to meet you , man . joe : very nice to meet you . nina : yes , yes . mr. zee is writing the next feature for crimson , which is why we need to find out who 's sabotaging us immediately . curtis : understood . nina : yeah . okay , so , um , can you give us a few minutes ? maybe you and mr. zee -- you could talk concepts . maxie : of course . uh , right this way . after you . i 'm sorry about the interruption . i hope the whole sabotage thing did n't discourage you from contributing to crimson . joe : not at all . i enjoy a challenge . so , are we talking concepts ? maxie : before we do , can i just tell you how much i admire your work ? when you were creative director at that magazine that will remain nameless , i learned so much just by studying the way you put things together . i mean , it 's not just something you flip through at the beauty salon . it actually captures the reader 's imagination and makes them think about fashion . that 's what you do . i really want to follow in your footsteps . joe : well , you 're off to a good start . that 's great pair of shoes you 're wearing . [ scene_break ] curtis : whoever sabotaged you -- it ai n't a competitor . nina : how are you so sure ? curtis : your last two issues were a success , but folks in your industry seem to think that crimson 's about to fold . nina : oh , right . i 'm sure they figured it out before i did . curtis : figured what out ? nina : our publisher , julian jerome -- he never thought i would succeed . he only hired me as a placeholder to oversee the magazine until he could stop publication . [ scene_break ] nathan : maxie insists she does n't need to know about claudette , but i know it 's bothering her . dante : with the best of intentions , you guys are kind of building up a wall between you and maxie every time you avoid talking about it . and speaking from experience , if i could go back , obviously i would n't have slept with valerie , but i would have told lulu that first day . i would have dealt with everything that day . nathan : we 're way past that , though . maxie has known about claudette for weeks . dante : does she know that she was your wife ? nathan : no . do you think i should tell her ? dante : i do n't know , man . that 's not my call to make . that 's yours . [ scene_break ] sam : we just assumed that rachel , who is actually hayden , was hit by a bullet that was meant for you . jason : okay , hold on for just a minute . sam : okay . jason : the gunman was right outside the garage . he admitted that i was the target . he said that as he was pulling the trigger , jordan ashford grabbed his hand , causing the bullet to go wild . sam : okay . wait a minute . all right . so , for the sake of argument , let 's just say there were two shooters that day and sean butler 's bullet did go wild . what if the other gunman hit the person that he was supposed to ? [ scene_break ] hayden : when should i have told you , nikolas ? and do n't say `` on our wedding day . `` we just had just come from that ridiculous camelot chapel , and you turned what should have been a tacky , embarrassing quickie wedding into something romantic and beautiful . i was n't just gon na throw all that away , because some random guy i used to know called me `` rachel . `` nikolas : but he called you by your real name ! hayden : no ! no . rachel berlin does n't exist anymore . i 'm hayden barnes . actually , i 'm hayden cassadine now . i 'm -- i 'm far from perfect . i 've lied , i 've manipulated , but so have you . you 've gone behind my back . you 've been far less than truthful . but when you said you wanted a real marriage , one based on love , i let myself believe you , despite everything that you 've done . i was willing to look past all of that and forgive you . why ca n't you do the same thing for me ? nikolas : hold -- no , hold on . you want me to ignore that you married me for my money ? hayden : i did n't -- nikolas : that you tried to maneuver me into signing elq over to you -- hayden : i was n't -- nikolas : listen . no , no , no . hayden : i was trying to protect you . nikolas : do you know what it would mean for us to try and be together right now ? hmm ? even if your intentions were real , even if your love for me was real , i could -- i would constantly be second - guessing your every motive . it would torture us both . do you understand that ? hayden : but we found a way to trust each other once before . nikolas : yeah , right , and look where it got us . every bit of trust that we built together has been destroyed . this farce of a marriage is over . [ scene_break ] kristina : the good news is , if you can even call it that , is that everyone knows that i was suspended , so i do n't have to lie and scramble to cover it up anymore . lucas : well , all right . that 's great . how did your parents handle it ? kristina : my dad was furious and disappointed . my mom was more supportive . it 's funny , though . i almost respect my dad 's reaction more . after he cooled off , he said that he loves me no matter what . and i believe him , to a point . i think that if i ever had the courage to tell him that i 'm maybe , possibly gay , i think his head would explode . lucas : okay , well , hold on . i 'm more interested in how you feel right now . so , does maybe , possibly gay describe how you 're feeling ? kristina : all i know for sure is that i am deeply , completely confused about everything ... except for my attraction to parker . lucas : okay , well , it 's good to start with what you do know . i mean , as for the rest of it , i do n't know . i mean , this may describe a one - time crush , or it may describe how you 're gon na feel for the rest of your life . i do n't know . i ca n't predict the future . but neither can you . kristina : so , what ? i 'm just supposed to wait and see who i 'm attracted to next ? lucas : no , you 're supposed to trust your own feelings . trust how you feel . not anybody else -- their opinions , their expectations of you , or not even a label that you put on yourself . kristina : okay . great . now , how do i explain that to my mother ? [ doors opens ] julian : [ clears throat ] [ scene_break ] maxie : these are my favorite shoes , but i ca n't take any credit . they were a gift from my boyfriend . joe : well , he has excellent taste -- in footwear and in girlfriends . maxie : yeah , that 's what i 'm afraid of . joe : why ? maxie : forget that i said that . um , maybe we should discuss concepts . joe : okay , i 'll never be able to concentrate if you do n't tell me what 's going on . i mean , why are you so afraid of your boyfriend 's great taste ? maxie : i 'm afraid of his ex - girlfriend , who he wo n't even admit he has . joe : well , that does n't sound very good . maxie : i know , right ? [ sighs ] okay . my boyfriend is a cop , and he was recently shot . he 's fine . thank god . but when he was on painkillers , he said , `` i love you , claudette . `` and when i questioned him about it , he lied . then when he was ready to admit the truth , i told him i did n't want to hear it . and now i ca n't stop thinking about it . joe : would you like some advice ? maxie : please . joe : do n't borrow trouble . it sounds like you and your boyfriend have a great thing going . this claudette is in his past . just leave her there . maxie : so simple and brilliant . you 're right . joe , if you ever tire of fashion , you could have a career as a relationship counselor . joe : oh , come here . [ elevator doors open ] maxie : nathan ! what are you doing here ? [ scene_break ] jason : okay , let 's go with your theory that there was a second gunman at the garage . sam : okay . jason : who was the target ? was it hayden , or was it rachel ? sam : rachel . for all of the reasons we just said . raymond berlin stole billions of dollars from people . i 'm sure someone would track her down to port charles . jason : where she becomes involved with nikolas cassadine , somebody else who 's worth millions of dollars . [ scene_break ] hayden : you want a divorce ? nikolas : how can you be so shocked ? hayden : how should i -- how should i sound ? i mean , a few days ago , we loved each other , and now you want to act like that never happened ? nikolas : i do n't know . i just -- i think i should cut my losses , and i think that -- i think that you should , too . you know ? it was a hell of a con , but it failed . and it 's time to move on . [ door opens ] hayden : so , just like that , you pay me off , and i walk away ? nikolas : pay -- wait , if you 're referring to the $ 5 million -- hayden : that you provided in the prenuptial agreement . nikolas : hayden , our marriage was a fraud . you did n't even use your real name . i have no problem with having that part of the prenup invalidated . hayden : so , not only are you rejecting me , you 're leaving me penniless . nikolas : look , you -- you can keep the clothes and the personal items that i paid for . hayden : [ scoffs ] nikolas : but whatever you brought is what you leave with and not a penny more . [ door closes ] hayden : i do n't think so . [ scene_break ] maxie : my boyfriend , detective nathan west . nathan , this is gifted stylist and superstar of fashion publishing , joe zee . nathan : it 's nice to meet you . [ cell phone chimes ] joe : and you . sorry , excuse me . maxie : joe is doing a guest feature for crimson ! we were just about to discuss concepts . nathan : so , now would be a bad time to ask you to take a walk with me ? joe : actually , it would be the perfect time . i have to catch the next flight back to la . maxie : now ? why ? joe : i 'm sorry . a client whose name i ca n't disclose had a disastrous red carpet appearance and needs immediate consult . maxie : your feature -- joe : is going to happen . tell nina do n't worry . i 'll facetime you tomorrow , and i 'm thinking footwear . maxie : yes ! okay ! perfect ! ca n't wait !

[ laughs ] he 's standing ! julian : he stood up by himself ? olivia : i managed to -- to catch it on my phone . you know , i saw him going for the chair , i saw the determined look on his face . i knew something was happening , so -- you know what ? let me grab it and i 'll show you the video . julian : that would be fantastic . thanks . alexis : we need to have this conversation while she 's away . now , listen . carlos ' case is protected by attorney - client privilege , which means i ca n't tell you anything . so if we want to protect the marital harmony between us , do n't ask me any more questions . olivia : yeah ? ned . ned : hello , olivia . olivia : ned , i , uh , i did n't know you were back in town . i - i guess i heard something about tracy being in the hospital . i - i hope everything 's okay . ned : yeah , she gave us a real scare , but she 's doing well , on the mend . olivia : [ sighs ] praise be to god . i 'm really glad to hear it . ned : so , how you been ? olivia : wonderful . wonderful . yeah , yeah . and leo -- he 's -- he 's getting bigger every day . he 's almost walking .

[ scoffs ] should have known how concerned you 'd be . because , i mean , she was your patient , right ? andré : yes . and she 's -- alexis : excuse me . i 'm sorry to interrupt . commissioner , i 'd like to speak to you about the case against my client , carlos rivera . jordan : of course . let me pull his file . excuse me . alexis : thank you . [ scene_break ] anna : why would n't i make bail ? mac and felicia assured me that they would raise the money . paul : you ca n't post bail without a bail hearing . anna : of course , i 'm gon na have a hearing . it 's my constitutional right . paul : i - it would be if you were n't considered a risk to yourself or others . anna : what ? paul : i 'm not sure if you 're of sound mind , anna . your behavior over these last few months , especially these last few weeks , has been increasingly erratic , and if you were granted bail , who knows what you would do ? you might be considered a flight risk . anna : we both know i 'm perfectly sane . paul : well , some would argue that your compulsion to seek out punishment for your perceived wrongdoings -- anna : my perceived wrongdoings ? paul : ... borders on the irrational . anna : no . if anyone 's judgment here is suspect , it 's yours . you are an officer of the court . you 've been sworn to uphold the law , and you do everything to subvert it . i am perfectly sane . paul : that 's not for me to say . i 've asked an expert in psychiatry to , uh , evaluate you . here he is now . [ scene_break ] ned : you seem happy . olivia : [ chuckles ] ned : it 's a good look on you . i 'm glad to hear that this co - parenting thing is going so well with julian . olivia : really ? i never would have guessed . ned : well , hey . i 'm never gon na like the guy . and i was genuinely worried for you and leo . you know , it 's funny . the reason i left ... the reason we could n't be together was because of this lie about leo . and now that lie does n't exist anymore . olivia : that 's true . ned : are you ... back in port charles for good ? olivia : oh , i would never leave dante and rocco . i mean , i love being around my grandson . i mean , my nanny 's watching the two boys right now , and honestly ... i 'm happy that leo 's gon na have a chance to have a relationship with his father . ned : i understand that . olivia : how about you ? how long are you in town ? ned : oh , a few more days . um ... but maybe we could ... get together , go see a movie ? olivia : i 'd like that . are you gon na be in town on may 6th ? ned : may 6th .

[ scene_break ] monica : ah , dr. obrecht . i 'm glad we ran into you , because i was going to speak with you about putting dr. finn here on staff and making his position permanent . dr. obrecht : i hope i do n't have to remind you about your job description , dr. quartermaine . you are a cardiac surgeon . hiring and firing are not in your purview . monica : well , my purview includes recognizing talent when i see it , and dr. finn here is an innovator who probably saved tracy 's life . and any hospital worth its salt would be very happy to snatch him up . dr. obrecht : be that as it may , you are not in charge of this hospital or its salt . monica : [ sighs ] dr. obrecht : which means your opinion of dr. finn and his so - called talents is irrelevant . carly : what is your problem , lady ? [ scene_break ] paul : dr. maddox , thank you for coming . andré : this is the prisoner you want me to evaluate ? paul : yes . andré : i 'll need to interview her alone . i 'm sure you understand . paul : of course . i 'll leave you to it . i 'll need a full report . anna : you 're working for paul now ? you 're going to tell the court that i 'm crazy ? andré : of course not . when the da 's office contacted me to do an evaluation , i had no idea you were the prisoner in question . anna : yeah . less than ideal circumstances . i 'm a little off my game . andré : well , you do n't have to worry . i 'll tell the da that because of my prior relationship both as your therapist and as your friend , i ca n't objectively evaluate you . anna : we both know that this is ridiculous . paul is just trying to wear me down , so that i do n't implicate him . andré : well , i 'm still unclear how you came to be arrested for attempted murder in the first place . what the hell happened , anna ? [ scene_break ] alexis : nothing 's been added since i first saw mr. rivera 's file . this is all the evidence you have against him ? jordan : no , we have sabrina santiago 's videotaped statement that mr. rivera told her that he shot duke lavery in the metro court parking garage on the eve of may 8 , 2015 . and she goes into very specific detail on his account , all of which are a match to this material evidence . alexis : well , ms. santiago 's statement may not be accurate . she could have been lying . jordan : no , anna devane and kyle sloane found her in her apartment , tied up by your client . alexis : where is ms. santiago ? jordan : i do n't know . why do n't you ask your client ? i mean , it appears that she helped him flee the country , right ? she might actually still be in hiding . alexis : well , if i ca n't cross - examine ms . santiago , i 'm going to have to get her testimony thrown out . jordan : well , you can try . but i 'm pretty confident that the da 's going to be able to protect her statement . alexis : there is very little physical evidence . jordan : look . my department is still working on this case , okay ? and i 'm sure that by the time mr. rivera goes to trial , we will have additional evidence . alexis : you know what ? i 'm gon na save you a lot of needless work . i 'm gon na file for a motion to dismiss . hey , oscar . it 's me . i think we have a way out for rivera , so i want you to file a motion to dismiss . get the paperwork done and put it on judge white 's desk by the end of the day . a motion to dismiss . yes . thank you . sonny : busy day ? working really hard at trying to set free the man who almost killed me ? [ scene_break ] olivia : hey , hey . sorry to make you wait . julian : it 's no problem . i mean , if it 's a chance to see leo learn how to stand , i do n't mind waiting . olivia : [ chuckles ] i found the video , and you are going to be amazed . [ sighs ] julian : you all right ? something happen ? olivia : yeah . wh - why would you ask that ? julian : well , i do n't know . like you said , you were gone awhile . you seem kind of shaken . olivia : n - no . it 's just -- just hotel business . just -- just pay attention . pay attention . julian : all right . olivia : okay . here we go . you see ? he 's -- he 's going over to the chair . he gets a grip with both his hands and he pulls and he pulls and he 's up ! [ laughs ] julian : [ sighs ] i mean , he really did it . olivia : [ laughing ] look at that ! our boy . i 'm telling you what -- our boy is more advanced than any other almost-1-year - old i have ever seen . [ chuckles ] julian : except for dante , right ? olivia : well , that goes without saying , but how adorable is our son ? [ chuckles ] julian : he 's pretty adorable . olivia : yeah . you do n't really seem to be in a video - watching mood today . julian : no . i 'm fine . olivia : no , you got something else on your mind , and i have a pretty good idea of what it is . julian : you do ? olivia : carlos . julian : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] anna : because i 'm finished with subterfuge . you know , i do n't want paul or anyone else to dangle the shooting over my head for one more second . so i confessed to trying to kill carlos . and then i told jordan that paul had admitted to killing sloane . andré : so , why is paul running around free while you 're behind bars ? anna : he was here keeping me company , but then mayor lomax -- she ordered jordan to drop the charges against him , and i figured that once i was released on bail that -- and now paul is alleging that i am a mentally unhinged flight risk . andré : well , paul seems determined to shut you up . anna : yeah , well , he wo n't succeed . andré : well , if you continue claiming that he killed sloane -- anna : because he did ! and carlos witnessed it . [ sighs ] god . [ scoffs ] it 's the irony . andré : well , the more you escalate , the more desperate paul will become . against you . clearly , he 's capable of murder . anna : no , h - he wo n't hurt me . but he will do everything he can to cover his tracks , which is why i have to get out of this cell . i ca n't be in here . i have to be collecting evidence . andré : against paul ? anna : well , yes , eventually . but i have to build a watertight case against carlos . it has to be damning and so strong that he has no choice but to flip on julian . and then , when i finally have those two in prison , that 's when i feel i will have justice for duke . [ scene_break ] ned : good morning , mother . tracy : hello , darling . ned : you look good . tracy : thank you . a person always looks better with money in her hands . you look pretty good yourself . ned : even without the cash ? quite a compliment . tracy : well , you are a welcome sight in this dreary place . although , i must admit , i -- i would prefer seeing you around the breakfast table every morning . ned : what do you mean ? tracy : i know you came back because you thought i was dying . now that i 'm not dying , you have a much bigger reason to stay . ned : other than enjoying each other 's company , which i have a feeling could devolve quickly into driving each other crazy , i 'm not sure i know exactly what that reason would be . tracy : elq . it 's back in family hands , right where it belongs . [ scene_break ] carly : what do you have against dr. finn ? finn : carly , i do appreciate you -- carly : no , he 's a wonderful doctor who saved tracy quartermaine 's life . and saved a lot of unnecessary worry on my part by quickly and accurately diagnosing my daughter with fifth disease . josslyn : he 's smart and cool , and he has a bearded dragon for a service animal . who would n't want a doctor like that ? carly : yes . dr. obrecht : children should be seen and not heard . carly : this child is right , and she 'll be heard . dr. finn would be a huge asset to this hospital . dr. obrecht : thank you for your input , mrs. corinthos and offspring . however , as long as i am chief of staff of this hospital , i 'll make sure that dr. hamilton finn has no place here . monica : yes , liesl . you 're right . you are chief of staff . and i think it 's about time something was done about it . dr. obrecht : dr. quartermaine , what exactly do you mean to imply ? [ scene_break ] andré : for someone who just confessed to attempted murder , you sure have a lot you plan on accomplishing out in the world . anna : julian set this all in motion , did n't he , when he killed duke ? and he somehow managed to get away with it . somehow , some way , he always manages to slide out , but i 'm gon na put an end to that . andré : calm down . getting agitated is n't going to help your situation . anna : of course , i 'm agitated ! i 'm stuck in this cell ! i should be out there securing evidence . you know , the only person that can confirm carlos killed duke is sabrina santiago , because he showed up at her house that night and then later confessed to her . now , we have her statement on video , but we really need her to testify in court . andré : is there no lead to where sabrina might have gone ? anna : i do n't know where she is . she was n't with carlos when sonny and i found him . andré : what are you planning on doing once you do get out of here ? anna : why do you ask ? andré : the last time i turned my back on you , you handcuffed the district attorney to a banister and took off to south america . now , it sounds like you might do it again . anna : what are you saying ? andré : i 'm saying it 's possible you 're exactly where you belong . [ scene_break ] paul : was that alexis davis i saw hurrying out of here a few minutes ago ? jordan : are we really gon na just go back to business as usual , like , pretend that i did n't arrest you last night ? paul : short of you taking a leave of absence due to emotional duress , yes . jordan : alexis davis is here to see the file on carlos rivera . she 's his attorney now . it 's a development i 'm not very happy about . paul : rivera 's been offered a generous deal . jordan : well , he 's acting like he does n't want to take it , because alexis is saying that she 's trying to dismiss the entire case . paul : that 's just defense - attorney posturing . jordan : i hope so . i really do , because i want to see carlos pay for what he did . paul : well , i would n't worry about it . we 've got a strong case . alexis would be remiss , even negligent , not to advise carlos to take the deal we 're offering . [ scene_break ] alexis : you think you can say something like that and just walk away from me ? sonny : i just -- i just told the truth . you 're defending carlos rivera , the man who tried to kill me , who did kill duke lavery . alexis : do you have some physical evidence , maybe some eyewitness testimony ? 'cause if you 've got that , take that to the da , because right now with me , you 're just speculating about my client 's guilt , which is fine . that 's your right . but it 's also his right to have a competent defense . sonny : which , of course , you 're gon na provide . alexis : which i provided for you repeatedly . sonny : you -- you quit on me because i -- alexis : you fired me ! sonny : and now you 're gon na defend carlos ! alexis : [ sighs ] sonny : after a decade of lecturing me on my moral failings and how i - i live my life , you have finally fallen off your high horse . alexis : apparently , you think you 're the only criminal worthy of a defense . sonny : oh , now you 're being hypocritical , because those ethics and principles that you 're so proud of ? they go out the window as soon as you hooked up with julian .

julian is talking privately to alexis who admits she is representing carlos , for him , against her better judgment and she has to uphold attorney / client privilege and not reveal to him what he needs to know . she goes off to work and olivia finds him to engage in a conversation about their mutual infant son leo . olivia tells him although she does not want to get in his business , she has concerns for whether he 's in trouble and how it could affect their child whom they both agree should have a daddy . sonny finds out that alexis is representing the man who tried to get him killed and tells her he knows she 's doing it for julian in order to protect julian from having carlos testifying against him . he reminds her that he 's certain they are both responsible for murdering duke and she needs to wake up and realize her husband is not a `` legit `` as she wants to believe . tracy is getting better and wants finn to stay on staff to be her primary provider . monica wants that too . but obrecht firmly reminds them she is the chief of staff and she wo n't let that happen . carly and josslyn reveal to her that they do n't want finn to go anywhere . finn admits he feels at home around them and it 's confirmed that people want him around a lot more than they want obrecht there . while anna remains in jail , paul reveals to her that he wants to deny her bail . the reason , he tells her is because he has concerns about her mental health status . he tells her he 's consulted with a psychiatrist who confirms his concerns . she learns the psychiatrist in question is maddox . she talks to him alone , urging him to know he can not listen to anything paul says . yet he wonders how or why she would confess to attempted murder . he also knows the last time he saw her , she knocked paul out in her living room while she fled with sonny to south america to find carlos and take matters into her own hands . he concludes he is worried about her mental health status and suspects , given her current impulsive and irrational behavior , that she may be a danger to herself and to others .

[ chuckles ] julian : he 's pretty adorable . olivia : yeah . you do n't really seem to be in a video - watching mood today . julian : no . i 'm fine . olivia : no , you got something else on your mind , and i have a pretty good idea of what it is . julian : you do ? olivia : carlos . julian : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] anna : because i 'm finished with subterfuge . you know , i do n't want paul or anyone else to dangle the shooting over my head for one more second . so i confessed to trying to kill carlos . and then i told jordan that paul had admitted to killing sloane . andré : so , why is paul running around free while you 're behind bars ? anna : he was here keeping me company , but then mayor lomax -- she ordered jordan to drop the charges against him , and i figured that once i was released on bail that -- and now paul is alleging that i am a mentally unhinged flight risk . andré : well , paul seems determined to shut you up . anna : yeah , well , he wo n't succeed . andré : well , if you continue claiming that he killed sloane -- anna : because he did ! and carlos witnessed it . [ sighs ] god . [ scoffs ] it 's the irony . andré : well , the more you escalate , the more desperate paul will become . against you . clearly , he 's capable of murder . anna : no , h - he wo n't hurt me . but he will do everything he can to cover his tracks , which is why i have to get out of this cell . i ca n't be in here . i have to be collecting evidence . andré : against paul ? anna : well , yes , eventually . but i have to build a watertight case against carlos . it has to be damning and so strong that he has no choice but to flip on julian . and then , when i finally have those two in prison , that 's when i feel i will have justice for duke . [ scene_break ] ned : good morning , mother . tracy : hello , darling . ned : you look good . tracy : thank you . a person always looks better with money in her hands . you look pretty good yourself . ned : even without the cash ? quite a compliment . tracy : well , you are a welcome sight in this dreary place . although , i must admit , i -- i would prefer seeing you around the breakfast table every morning . ned : what do you mean ? tracy : i know you came back because you thought i was dying . now that i 'm not dying , you have a much bigger reason to stay . ned : other than enjoying each other 's company , which i have a feeling could devolve quickly into driving each other crazy , i 'm not sure i know exactly what that reason would be . tracy : elq . it 's back in family hands , right where it belongs . [ scene_break ] carly : what do you have against dr. finn ? finn : carly , i do appreciate you -- carly : no , he 's a wonderful doctor who saved tracy quartermaine 's life . and saved a lot of unnecessary worry on my part by quickly and accurately diagnosing my daughter with fifth disease . josslyn : he 's smart and cool , and he has a bearded dragon for a service animal . who would n't want a doctor like that ? carly : yes . dr. obrecht : children should be seen and not heard . carly : this child is right , and she 'll be heard . dr. finn would be a huge asset to this hospital . dr. obrecht : thank you for your input , mrs. corinthos and offspring . however , as long as i am chief of staff of this hospital , i 'll make sure that dr. hamilton finn has no place here . monica : yes , liesl . you 're right . you are chief of staff . and i think it 's about time something was done about it . dr. obrecht : dr. quartermaine , what exactly do you mean to imply ? [ scene_break ] andré : for someone who just confessed to attempted murder , you sure have a lot you plan on accomplishing out in the world . anna : julian set this all in motion , did n't he , when he killed duke ? and he somehow managed to get away with it . somehow , some way , he always manages to slide out , but i 'm gon na put an end to that . andré : calm down . getting agitated is n't going to help your situation . anna : of course , i 'm agitated ! i 'm stuck in this cell ! i should be out there securing evidence . you know , the only person that can confirm carlos killed duke is sabrina santiago , because he showed up at her house that night and then later confessed to her . now , we have her statement on video , but we really need her to testify in court . andré : is there no lead to where sabrina might have gone ? anna : i do n't know where she is . she was n't with carlos when sonny and i found him . andré : what are you planning on doing once you do get out of here ? anna : why do you ask ? andré : the last time i turned my back on you , you handcuffed the district attorney to a banister and took off to south america . now , it sounds like you might do it again . anna : what are you saying ? andré : i 'm saying it 's possible you 're exactly where you belong .

[ scene_break ] alexis : you think you can say something like that and just walk away from me ? sonny : i just -- i just told the truth . you 're defending carlos rivera , the man who tried to kill me , who did kill duke lavery . alexis : do you have some physical evidence , maybe some eyewitness testimony ? 'cause if you 've got that , take that to the da , because right now with me , you 're just speculating about my client 's guilt , which is fine . that 's your right . but it 's also his right to have a competent defense . sonny : which , of course , you 're gon na provide . alexis : which i provided for you repeatedly . sonny : you -- you quit on me because i -- alexis : you fired me ! sonny : and now you 're gon na defend carlos ! alexis : [ sighs ] sonny : after a decade of lecturing me on my moral failings and how i - i live my life , you have finally fallen off your high horse . alexis : apparently , you think you 're the only criminal worthy of a defense . sonny : oh , now you 're being hypocritical , because those ethics and principles that you 're so proud of ? they go out the window as soon as you hooked up with julian .

[ normal voice ] talk about a hypocrite . what i will tell you is that unlike you , julian 's out of the mob , and unlike you , he turned his back on crime . sonny : oh , okay . my mistake . because julian loves you so much , h - he 's gone legit . but you know what ? he , uh , he was a gangster when he ordered carlos to kill duke . alexis : [ sighs ] sonny : and as far as i know , there 's no statute of limitation . so you are defending a madman to protect julian . i 'm just saying , it 's gon na bite you in the ass . alexis : yeah , well , thanks for your opinion . it 's -- it 's duly noted . sonny : okay , look . alexis : [ sighs ] sonny : i just want you to be careful because there 's way too many people here with too much to lose . and i do n't want our daughter to lose her mother ... because you 're in the line of fire .

dusty and meg watch one another , as she is with damian and he is with bonnie . the tension is apparent and damian thinks that the only way meg can move on from the past is to talk with dusty one last time to see if they have a future . meg decides to take him up on this suggestion . she asks to talk with dusty , as bonnie heads out nervously considering her feelings for dusty are growing but she does n't want to admit it . dusty and meg are on the verge of giving it one more try , but dusty pushes meg 's buttons again and they realize their problems are still there and neither one of them will back down . they both head off angrily deciding giving it another try was a mistake . meanwhile , bonnie is talking with derek , who suddenly has a change of heart , but she does n't know where her feelings lie so they get into an argument and derek stomps off . later , dusty confronts damian and tells him that he is onto him and knows he was n't on meg and his side and is only trying to push himself into meg 's life more as her new bff . damian calls dusty on all his mistakes with meg and how he alone drove her away . damian later makes a phone call where he tells the person to buy up all worldwide stock he can and make sure no one knows he is the one doing the buying . damian later goes to see meg and tells her that if she only wants a friend for the time being ( even though he admits he wants more ) , he is willing to be patient , as they continue to flirt . dusty seeks out bonnie and asks her out to dinner , but bonnie , who is trying to protect herself , turns him down with an added insult , to seal the deal . carly continues to drink unbeknownst to everyone . when craig comes over , she covers by suggesting they go upstairs . their romp turns into a conversation about their future and craig asks carly to marry him . carly does n't take him seriously at first , but he convinces her to give it some thought . she wo n't go further with his suggestion unless rosanna and her kids get on board . craig wants them to go talk with her now . meanwhile , rosanna is trying to convince paul that she needs to stand on her own feet , as paul wants her to stay with him and eliza and have a makeshift family . she does n't think it is healthy , but paul wants her to think about it . after he goes to take eliza back to the farm , carly and craig come by with their news and her blessing . rosanna is unsure and stunned but asks carly if she loves him . she needs him , she admits , but then later tells them both she does love craig . rosanna begrudgingly gives her blessing . paul walks in as this is going down and takes some shots at this supposed union , as rosanna suggests he let this be between her and her sister . later , paul wants her to stop this , but this convinces rosanna more then ever that she ca n't stay with him because she does n't want to be the old rosanna anymore and if she stays with him , she might . paul offers to get her a room at the lakeview , as she finally accepts his generosity . carly and craig go home to celebrate , as carly secretly takes more drinks from the hidden vodka bottle before she and craig head upstairs to celebrate more now as an newly engaged couple . carly sadly looks at reflection in the mirror before she trails behind craig as they head upstairs .

[ scene_break ] dusty : thanks for helping me get my son back in my life . damian : you know , as long as you keep looking over your shoulder at dusty , you 're stuck in the past . you ca n't begin anything new . meg : a new relationship is the last thing i need right now . damian : i understand . and i 'm willing to remain your friend and nothing more , if that 's all you need . meg : i could use a good friend . damian : all right , then . as a friend , i have to tell you , you ca n't go on like this , feeling so unresolved . meg : how 'd you get so smart ? [ meg chuckles ] meg : guys are usually lousy at this stuff . damian : my heart has been broken so many times , i know how it feels . at the very least , you should talk to dusty and figure out , once and for all , if the two of you should try again . meg : i do n't think it 's gon na be that simple . damian : well , love never is . but once you lose it , you can spend the rest of your life in regret . i do n't want to see that happen to you . meg : he 'll think i 'm crazy . [ meg chuckles ] and i ca n't believe i 'm even considering this . damian : i 'm going back to the hotel . [ meg sighs ] damian : i 'll be in my room if you need me . meg : excuse me . uh , i 'm sorry to interrupt , but i need to speak to dusty , please . bonnie : oh . dusty : i 'm a little busy right now . bonnie : no , that 's fine . i actually have a lot of work to do at metro . i should go . thank you again for the flowers . dusty : have a seat . what 's up ? meg : well , i was thinking about how we ended things . dusty : and ? meg : i wonder if maybe we were too hasty . [ scene_break ] paul : so you got me to do the right thing . here you go . rosanna : oh , thank you . paul : and as a reward , you have no place to stay , you have no money , and you 're all alone . rosanna : uh , are you trying to make me feel better or worse ? paul : i 'm trying to let you know that i meant what i said before , that i like having you here and eliza likes having you here . and when the three of us are together -- i do n't know -- it 's kind of like , you know , we 're one step short of a family . rosanna : well , what are you suggesting -- we play house ? paul : no , nothing that complic -- yes . that 's exactly -- yeah , i do n't know . i -- i think it might work . rosanna : only in your imagination . it -- it would n't be real , paul . paul : well , if it 's something that we both enjoy , then that makes it real for us , right ? rosanna : look , it 's really so sweet of you . i just do n't think it would be healthy for anybody in the long run . paul : look , i 've made a lot of mistakes in my life , okay ? but i 'm starting to build a new life here for me and my little girl . and if you want to be a part of it , you 're welcome -- that 's all i 'm saying . come on . do n't you think it 's worth a try ? [ scene_break ] bonnie : i ordered two cases of rum , but you sent me gin . well , put a rush on it . i need it before the weekend . derek : keeping busy , i see . bonnie : derek . what are you doing here ? derek : i was in the neighborhood . thought i 'd see how you were doing . [ bonnie sighs ] bonnie : really ? i did n't think you wanted anything to do with a woman like me . derek : maybe i overreacted . bonnie : maybe ? derek : i 'm sorry . i was out of line . bonnie : yeah , you were . derek : look , i 'm trying to apologize . i realized that you were right . bonnie : could you say that again ? derek : you were right . i thought we had an understanding , you know , about us , but i never said out loud where i thought the relationship was going . bonnie : obviously , you did n't think it was going anywhere since you basically called me a slut . derek : that was a knee - jerk reaction . i was jealous . but now i know the truth . you said there was nothing going on between you and dusty . okay , i can accept that . bonnie : maybe there was n't , but , uh , now , it 's -- derek : are you saying things have changed ? bonnie : no one was more surprised than i was , derek , but you should probably know that dusty and i have kissed , twice . [ scene_break ] meg : you did n't deserve to be pushed away . i mean , this whole time , you had my best interests at heart . dusty : it 's hard watching you let paul back into your life . [ meg sighs ] meg : i tried to explain that . i did it for eliza 's sake . dusty : that does n't make it right . meg : he is still her father . dusty : he does n't understand boundaries . you understand ? he never will . he 's that sort of guy . meg : it 's going well so far . he 's following the rules for the supervised visitations , and he seems to be grateful . dusty : it wo n't last . he 's gon na strike soon . meg : oh , come on , dusty . do you honestly think that he would try to take eliza again ? dusty : sure , he would . he 'll always be a danger to your daughter and to you . meg : i hope you 're wrong , dusty , but i do understand why you feel the way you do . and i -- i 'm sorry i overreacted . dusty : i 'm sorry , too -- sorry i was tough on you . meg : look , all i 'm trying to say is that , if i had to do it over again , things would be different . dusty : what are you trying to say ? meg : just that i miss you . dusty : i miss you , too . [ scene_break ] craig : i hate being here with you . carly : what ? i thought you were having a good time here . craig : well , i -- i was . i did . i am . but -- carly : but you hate -- you hate being here ? craig : i hate being in jack snyder 's bed . carly : oh , this has n't been jack snyder 's bed in a long time . craig : yeah ? well , i wonder why i feel he 's about to jump out of the closet . [ laughter ] carly : that 's not gon na happen . craig : he 's barged in here once before . carly : yeah . and since then , he 's had instructions to stay out of my bedroom . craig : yeah , i know , but he still acts like he 's got the run of the house . i mean , the other night when i tried to use the grill , i thought he was gon na cut my arm off . carly : yeah , well , jack can be territorial , and he ca n't stop feeling protective of me . craig : yeah , i know . that 's what i do n't like . i ca n't do this anymore . [ scene_break ] meg : so , do you think we could try again ? dusty : as long as paul stays out of your life . you got to draw the line . meg : i have . i made him sign a very tough visitation agreement . dusty : gave him everything he wants . [ meg chuckles ] meg : no , that 's not true . dusty : the problem is , you ca n't move forward unless you break with the past . meg : okay , that is the second time today a guy has given me the same advice . dusty : who 's that -- damian ? meg : yeah , he told me i would never be happy unless i cleared things up with you . dusty : he 's right . meg : well , obviously , you had no problem moving on . it took you -- what ? -- 10 minutes after we broke up to go out with bonnie ? dusty : this is n't about bonnie . meg : you 're right -- it 's about us . dusty : that 's right . we still have issues . i 'm too controlling . you do n't want me protecting you all the time . meg : yes , i do have a problem with that . dusty : but you need protecting with all the trouble you get yourself into . meg : you know , dusty , i may get myself into trouble , but i do my best to get out of it in my own way . and i was hoping that you could respect that , because , if you ca n't , it does n't matter how much we miss each other -- we will never be able to make this work . [ scene_break ] derek : clear something up for me . when you said there was nothing between you and dusty , what did you mean ? bonnie : well , i said that when you were acting like a big jerk , and you walked out on me , derek . derek : okay , okay . but i 'm back now . so , is there something going on with this guy or is n't there ? bonnie : no , i told you everything there is to know -- just two kisses . derek : well , what the hell does that mean , bonnie ? what does that mean for us ? bonnie : honestly ? i -- i have no idea . [ scene_break ] rosanna : listen , she 's your child -- okay ? and -- and meg 's , not mine . and i do not want to get in the middle . paul : i 'm not asking you to be in the middle . i 'm saying that you could have a life here if that 's something that you want . rosanna : no , i ca n't have everything handed to me like that , paul . it 's just -- i 'm not that kind of person . and besides , you know , your situation here is under a lot of scrutiny . you 've got these short , little supervised visits . i do n't think there 's anything in the fine print of your agreement with meg about me . in fact , i could turn out to be a deal - breaker . paul : meg says that , if i stick to the rules , then we could wind up with -- with something like shared custody . rosanna : yes , if you stick to the rules , which does not include you sneaking me in as eliza 's surrogate singing mom . besides , the situation with me and meg -- i mean , there 's just way too much bad blood between us . paul : oh , come on . if meg can forgive me for the 17th time after everything that i 've done to her , i 'm sure she 's the kind of person that could cut you some slack . rosanna : no , she 's cutting you slack because -- it 's for eliza 's sake , because you are her father , okay ? she has no reason to want me in the picture . paul : what if i do ? i 'm not trying to push you , and i 'm not asking for anything other than friendship . rosanna : are you sure ? paul : oh , please . my heart 's been through the shredder . that 's the single last thing i need right now . rosanna : okay , i just -- uh , i do n't understand why you would want to keep me around . paul : okay , look , i 've been a lousy partner , but i think i 'm a pretty good dad . i 'm not perfect , but i 'm working on it . and i 'd really like it if -- if you would help me . rosanna : i 'm really sorry , paul . i just do n't think it would work . listen , um , you 've got to get eliza back to the farm . you do n't want to be late . paul : i know that it would n't be simple for us to get where it is that i 'm saying we could get to , but it 's not impossible , either , so will you just think about it ? please ? [ rosanna sighs ] [ scene_break ] carly : well , i hope you 're not saying that you want me to move out of my house , because i 'm not doing that . my kids live here , and i 'm not taking them away their home . craig : i 'm not asking you to do that . carly : well , then , what ? are you saying that you want to move in here ? because you ca n't rush into that just because it 's convenient or so you can get a key so you can lock jack out . [ laughter ] craig : do you think i would do that ? carly : absolutely . craig : i would n't keep him away from his kids . carly : oh , big of you . craig : you know , i 'm not a bad guy . carly : bad enough . craig : yeah , just bad enough for you to like me . carly : do n't try to change the subject , now . come on . you know that our children need stability . craig : i agree . we both want that for our families . carly : and how do you intend to make that happen ? craig : simple . we 'll just make it official . carly : what are you talking about ? craig : marry me . carly : no . i mean , we tried this once before , remember ? it was a disaster . craig : that was then . this is now . now we 're a couple . why not take it to the next step ? carly : because it 's not a step -- it 's a leap from a cliff . craig : okay , i 'm the first one to admit that our respective marriages have been kind of like a series of train wrecks . carly : yeah , especially yours . craig : hey , that 's true , but i would n't brag , if i were you , either . carly : i 'm not bragging -- i 'm not . no , marriage has blown up in my face , and i can not put my children through that again . craig : our kids have to come first , no matter what . carly : that 's a given . craig : so we 're doing it for them . we 're showing them a good example . we 're doing the right thing . it 's like you giving up drinking . carly : wait a minute . what does -- what does me drinking have to do with anything ? that 's over . craig : no , i 'm -- i 'm just saying we 're both turning a corner . that 's all . carly : oh , uh - huh . well , it 's crazy . the idea 's crazy . it would never work . too much has happened . craig : i do n't know . it could help us both start a new chapter . carly : how ? parker hates you , and sage does n't think too highly of you , either . craig : parker and i used to be friends . i can bring him around . and sage is daddy 's little girl , and i completely understand that . but once she sees that i could be a good father , too , she might learn to like me . and sage and parker both love johnny . johnny sure could use a mother . carly : oh , do n't do that . do n't use that little boy to get me to say `` yes . `` craig : that 's not what i 'm saying . i 'm just saying that johnny cares about you . he looks up to you . carly : and i want what 's best for him -- i do , but my kids have to come first . they -- they flipped out when we almost got married before . craig : yeah , but they came around . kids adjust . that 's what they do . [ carly sighs ] carly : i do n't know . craig : we do n't have to rush into anything . we can give everyone plenty of time to get used to the idea . we can have some more family dinners . carly : jack will freak out . craig : jack 's happy with janet . why should n't you be happy ? what 's good for the goose -- ? carly : i do n't think he 'll see it that way . craig : you ca n't still let jack run your life . carly : i do n't . craig : well , then ? carly : it 's not as easy as you 're trying to make it sound . you know , i would still have to talk to rosanna . i would need to have her approval here . craig : okay . get up . get dressed . we 'll go see rosanna right now and talk her into it . [ carly laughs ] carly : it 's impossible -- you know that . craig : what i know is that you can do anything if you put your mind to it . carly : why do i think i 'm gon na regret this ? oh . [ scene_break ] dusty : i ca n't say it 's great that paul is a part of your life . he 's a constant threat to you and your daughter . why 'd you come over here ? meg : you know , obviously , it was a mistake , and i would n't have even done it if it was n't for damian encouraging me . dusty : you 'll take damian 's advice and not mine ? meg : why do you resent him ? he told me to give you another chance . he 's on our side . dusty : you really think that ? meg : yes , i do . dusty : he did n't send you over here 'cause he hopes you and i would get back together . he 's hoping you 'll go running back to him . meg : well , guess what -- the way you 're acting , running back to damian does n't sound half bad . dusty : be my guest . i 'd rather hang out with bonnie , anyway . meg : good . go right ahead . [ scene_break ] derek : i 'm ready to take things to the next level . bonnie : and what does that mean exactly , derek ? derek : i think maybe it 's time for us to move in together . bonnie : that 's funny . not a word about moving in a few days ago , and now i kissed dusty , and you 're ready to go apartment hunting . derek : well , maybe it 's taken me some time to realize how important you are to me . bonnie : you know what ? maybe now you want to move in with me now because you do n't -- you -- you just hate the idea of me being with somebody else . derek : if you have something going on with dusty donovan , i wish you 'd be up front and say so . bonnie : you know , i would . i would . if i knew what was going on with him , i would , but i do n't . derek : well , when you find out , you can let me know , or , better yet , do n't even bother . [ scene_break ] dusty : damian , you got a minute ? damian : of course . did you and meg have a chance to , uh , work things out ? dusty : you pretend to be meg 's new best friend and you only want her to be happy . damian : that happens to be true . dusty : not everyone has forgotten about your history , you know ? you 're the king of jerking people around . look what you did to lily . damian : this has nothing to do with lily . meg is someone i care about , and i was trying to help her . dusty : all you care about is you . you do n't care about what 's good for meg . damian : oh , i see . i see . no one in the world is good enough for meg except you . well , if you 're so perfect , why are n't you with her ? dusty : 'cause you got her all confused . damian : oh , i did , did n't i ? yes , it 's so much easier to blame someone else . first , it was paul . he may be the father of meg 's child , but he 's a bad influence . now meg should n't hang around with damian because he 's a bad influence , too . dusty : that 's true . damian : yeah ? you know , you said you wanted to protect meg , but you end up suffocating her . no wonder she left you . [ scene_break ] carly : rosanna , hi . the housekeeper let us in . i hope you do n't mind . rosanna : uh , no . just what are you guys doing here , both together ? carly : we need to talk to you . rosanna : i 'm not gon na like this , am i ? craig : try to keep an open mind . carly : i wanted to talk to you first to -- to get your opinion . rosanna : go on . carly : do you remember years ago when you wanted to marry craig , and you -- you asked me for my approval ? rosanna : yeah . and we all know how well that turned out . carly : well , but things have changed since then . and well , craig and i are sort of -- we 're thinking about getting married . craig : we 'd like to build a life together for our children and for ourselves . rosanna : what do you want -- you want my approval ? carly : yes , because i said no deal if you do n't approve . craig : so it is kind of up to you now . rosanna : i -- i do n't know . i mean , this is kind of a -- a shock . carly : i 'm sure . i just want you to try to understand . rosanna : carly , the only reason that i am staying here with paul is -- craig : no , i know . i know . you did n't want to stay with me because you did n't want to run into craig . i know that . craig : kind of extreme , if you ask me . carly : i want you to be honest with me because i would never want anything like this to come between us . rosanna : um , okay , listen . let me just -- let me just ask you one question . do you love him ? carly : i -- i need him . rosanna : that 's not the same thing . carly : craig , i -- i know that i have never said this to you before , but i -- i do love you . rosanna : well , if that 's the way you feel , then i 'm not gon na stand in your way . carly : so you approve ? rosanna : as long as you love him . i just hope you 'll be happy . carly : thank you . thank you very much . craig : yes , thank you . that 's very classy of you , rosanna . paul : what is going on here ? craig : well , you 're just in time to congratulate us . paul : for what ? craig : carly and i are getting married . paul : carly , are you crazy ? carly : probably , but i think it 's -- it 's too late now . paul : you marry craig montgomery , you 're gon na wind up in a hospital bed , just like your sister , only you -- you may never wake up .

[ scene_break ] will : um ... yikes , i got to go do some stuff for ej . yeah . but , um , i was thinking maybe , you know , after -- see if you wanted -- maybe could see , like , a movie or something ? sonny : yeah . yeah , that 'd be great . let 's do that . will : okay , great . your treat . i 'll text you . okay . sonny : all right , that 's a deal . [ scene_break ] lucas : hey , hey . um , your mom had to go , but i 'd like to talk to you for a second . will : oh , now 's -- i kind of got to go . can -- do n't worry , though . seriously . come on . lucas : i 'm your dad . it 's my job to worry . will : then we 'll talk later . okay ? see you . i got to go . [ scene_break ] lucas : was n't what i had in mind . did he talk to you about this ? sonny : yeah , yeah , he said that he 's on top of it , so ... lucas : well , i hope so . i mean , he 's got a lot more on his plate than dealing with ej right now . sonny : i know . man , i 'm just really glad that i did n't have anything like this happen to me when i first came out . you know , i got to go at it with my own pace , and i did n't have to face my uncle victor until i knew i was ready . lucas : you know , when victor was my stepdad , i was -- i was actually scared to ask him if i could stay out past my curfew . sonny : yeah , i spent so much time worrying about it , but it ended up going better than i thought . you know , he was like -- it was a little weird at first , but now we 're closer than ever . lucas : that 's cool . sonny : mm - hmm . lucas : um ... [ clears throat ] is there any advice you can give me , you know , so i can make this any easier for will ? i would really appreciate it . sonny : yeah . you know , will , he 's said that you have been very supportive . lucas : yeah . sonny : so i think just keep being supportive . keep loving him . and let him know that nothing has changed for you now that you know that he 's gay . lucas : yeah . [ scene_break ] spencer : i think a warrant to search ej 's apartment is gon na be a tough sell to a judge unless we find more evidence linking ej with the crime . rafe : well , there 's no harm in trying , though , right ? spencer : i 'll get the ball rolling and make some calls . rafe : yeah . hey . nicole : hi . rafe : so i 'm assuming that ej 's still not buying the dna test results . nicole : hmm . he is more determined than ever to prove that this kid is his . rafe : hmm . sorry to hear that . nicole : it 's just that lexie 's death has made him feel like all he has left are his children , and sami has custody of sydney and johnny , so that just leaves ... my sweet , little one . rafe : right . nicole : rafe , he said he 's not gon na back down . he 's gon na claim my baby , and god help anyone who gets in his way . [ scene_break ] ej : lexie gave me so much , and ... she asked so little in return . one of the things that she asked me , though , samantha , is ... she wanted me to make sure that theo stayed in contact with johnny and sydney . sami : of course . you know i 'm okay with that . ej : thank you . let 's talk about william . he 's -- he 's an adult , samantha . he 's quite capable of making his own choices . sami : ej , this is n't a choice . you are forcing him to work for you . ej : samantha , i 'm the mayor . okay ? i run dimera enterprises . it 's not a nefarious organization . sami : oh ! give me a break . ej : okay , fine . all right , if you do n't wish him to continue under my personal tutelage , i 'd give him another job . maybe he could work for countess wilhelmina . sami : great . you 'd let him work for me ? ej : not exactly , no . i thought that maybe you could work for him . how does that sound ? hmm ? sami : wait a second , ej . you said that -- after stefano died , you said that i was gon na get to run countess wilhelmina . ej : well , i think i 'm perfectly entitled to change my mind . [ typing ] look ... when madison offered you the job , you knew nothing about running a company , and yet you think you 're perfectly qualified to run it now ? but , william -- he 's smart , he 's very ambitious . he just needs , you know , the right person to mold him , to guide him . sami : you are the worst possible influence he could possibly have . ej : thank you . be careful , though , darling , because if you do want to keep your son 's freedom and keep your job , i suggest you do n't antagonize me . sami : [ groans ] i hate you . god , i hate you ! go ahead . underestimate me . i dare you . [ scene_break ] sonny : you know , will 's a lot tougher than you think . he 's been through a lot these past few months , and he never caved because of pressure . so it definitely made him stronger . lucas : yeah . yeah , i know . i like to think that you have a lot to do with that , you know . if will did n't have you in his corner , things would be a lot worse , so i 'm grateful that -- that you 're in his life . sonny : well , me too . i would -- i would do anything for will . lucas : can i ask you a personal question ? sonny : yeah , sure . lucas : i mean , it 's just the way you said it right now makes me think , you know -- sonny : makes you think what ? lucas : that you have feelings for my son . more than a friend . [ scene_break ] rafe : you know what , nicole ? by the time that sweet little baby 's born , ej might not even be in the picture . nicole : why ? rafe : well , he 's still a suspect in stefano 's murder , right ? if prosecuted , he could go to jail . nicole : oh , god , i do n't want to believe that ej shot his own father . but i do know they were n't on the best of terms before stefano died . rafe : yeah . excuse me . hey . spencer : i put in for a warrant to search ej 's apartment , but i 'm not too optimistic about getting it . nicole : um , excuse me . agent spencer , right ? spencer : yes ? nicole : i 'm nicole dimera . i 'm ej 's wife . and , you know , i 'd be more than happy to help in this investigation in any way i can . spencer : you would ? nicole : yeah . you certainly do n't have to get a warrant to search his apartment . i can do that for you . [ scene_break ] will : hey . here are the city budget documents that you wanted . ej : you 're late . did you stop over at your mother 's place for some milk and cookies ? will : uh , no , why , do you want some ? ej : no . will : what happened ? ej : she was over here earlier reading me the riot act regarding your employment . look , william , i think you 're a little bit old to be running to her every time you have a problem . will : i did n't do that . i swear . ej : you would do well to realize that i 'm the only reason that you 're not in jail . i 've got a lot of faith in you , william . i would appreciate a bit more loyalty in return . [ scene_break ] sonny : will and i -- we 've become really good friends . lucas : well , yeah , you know , i do n't mean to make you feel uncomfortable at all . maybe it 's none of my business , but i get the feeling you 'd rather be more than friends with my son . sonny : i ca n't believe i 'm saying this right now , but , yes , i have feelings for will . and it goes beyond friendship . lucas : well , thanks for being honest with me . sonny : yeah , but i do n't think will 's ready for those feelings yet . you know , he 's still figuring himself out , and that 's what he 's doing right now . see , he needs to feel comfortable with who he is before he can fall in love with someone . so as of right now , i guess that being friends is the best move . lucas : well , that 's really mature of you . makes me think that you feel he 's worth waiting for , and ... i guess that means i approve . sonny : well , thanks for saying that . [ clears throat ] but , you know , i do n't really know if will feels the same way about me . so i guess i 'm just gon na have to wait and see , you know . lucas : yeah . i guess time will tell . sonny : and you 're not gon na , like , tell him about what i said ? lucas : no , no , i 'm not gon na say anything . no , it 's cool . your secret 's safe with me . do n't worry about it . sonny : okay . i just do n't want him to feel any more pressure right now . [ scene_break ] will : what ? i swear . i did n't tell my mom . what happened was mom and dad just overheard me , you know , talking to sonny about it a little bit , and then they figured it out . ej : william , you know , there is an old world war ii expression here , which is rather appropriate -- '' loose lips sink ships . `` will : come on , i did n't have to say much . i mean , they already know that you did blackmail me about it a couple months ago . ej : i 'm sure that i do n't need to remind you , william , that i am the captain of this ship , and you are either with me , or you are against me . i do n't need to remind you how a captain deals with mutiny , do i ? [ scene_break ] spencer : look , mrs. dimera , thank you for your offer , but we really do need a warrant to search your husband 's apartment . this is a high - profile case , and we have to do everything by the book . i 'm going back to the station . are you coming ? rafe : i 'll be there shortly . nicole . nicole : why ? why ca n't i help ? it would be my way of paying you back after everything you 've done for me . rafe : okay . listen , i know that your heart is in the right place . and i know that you would breathe a huge sigh of relief if we could put ej behind bars right now . nicole : oh , i sure would . rafe : yeah , all the more reason that we have to play by the rules . believe me , i learned the hard way . [ scene_break ] lucas : what are you doing back here ? i thought you had a meeting . sami : um , it was canceled . lucas : you went to a meeting , did n't you ? just not the one that you scheduled . you went to see ej . you went to confront him . i ca n't believe you . sami : well , someone had to . i told him to leave will the hell alone . [ scene_break ] will : okay , look ... you 're getting worked up over nothing , here . i mean , we both know my family has a problem with me working for you . so what ? you know , i do n't care . so , why should you care ? right ? i mean , i will admit that the -- the position was a little bit more enjoyable when i actually had some perks , but , i mean , you ca n't beat the on - the - job training , right ? look , i learned a lot from you . and -- you know , all about stuff , and how you use information to your advantage . and they do n't teach any of that at salem u . ej : you know , william ... the first day that you tried to blackmail me for sleeping with your mother , you were very wet behind the ears . but look at you . [ tapping ] you 've come a long way . will : well ... thank you . actually , speaking of my mother , there 's something i wanted to ask you about her . ej : mm - hmm . what 's that ? will : what do you see in her , anyway ? ej : i 'm sorry ? will : i 'm serious . i mean , you 're a smart guy . how did you end up with her , of all people ? ej : um ... [ chuckles ] i think your mother -- your mother and i -- okay , um ... in life , william ... everybody makes mistakes . including myself . now that 's enough trolling through the past for one day . if you leave , you can get copies of these to all the city council members , so , if you would n't mind taking that on , thank you . will : aye - aye , captain . [ scene_break ] lucas : call me crazy , but i thought we agreed . sami : actually , no . you were just telling me what to do . lucas : what did you expect to do ? what did you expect to accomplish by confronting ej ? you think you can reason with that guy ? you think you can cure him of his evil ways ? sami : obviously i accomplished nothing . it was totally pointless , and he is a heartless bastard just like his father . lucas : when are you gon na stop banging your head against the wall over this guy , huh ? back off ej . just back away . there 's no good that could come from you talking to him . stay away from him . [ scene_break ] spencer : hello . spencer . i see . well , thanks for getting back to me so quickly . rafe : the warrant to search ej 's apartment ? spencer : denied . rafe : okay . well , it was still worth a shot , right ? spencer : i 'm pretty sure we would n't have found anything anyway . ej 's pretty damn shrewd . probably already disposed of any evidence already . rafe : yeah , well , even clever criminals make mistakes . and besides , ej 's not used to getting his hands dirty . now , we got ta find a way to get a warrant to search that apartment . [ scene_break ] [ knock on door ] ej : [ scoffs ] well , you 're certainly the last person i expected to see . nicole : may i come in ? ej : sure .
sami and lucas were with will at the town square . they talked to him about working for ej . they warned will that it would be too dangerous for him to work for ej . will did n't think there was anything wrong with working for ej . nicole met rafe at the pub . they talked about who switched the paternity test results . nicole warned him that the less he knew the better for him . rafe appreciated the fact that she was trying to protect him , but she warned him that ej will come after all of them . rafe told nicole that he would protect her as well as her baby , but ej never believed that he was the father of her baby . ej walked in the pub and overheard her say that he had no claim over her baby . ej warned nicole that he does n't have a claim right now . will did n't believe that anything would happen to him by working for ej . will reminded sami and lucas that ej was the one who bailed him out of jail . they let him know that they would have bailed him out of jail . sami wanted to know what ej was getting out of will working for him . will let them know that he was going to work in the mayor 's office . sami warned him that he should get out now while he still could . ej interrupted nicole and rafe 's conversation because he noticed trouble between them . nicole walked away and left rafe and ej alone . ej wanted to talk to rafe about stefano 's murder . they continued to talk about the murder case . agent spencer walked in the pub and saw ej and rafe together . agent spencer wanted to know if ej was ready to cooperate and tell everything he knew about stefano 's murder . will became angry when lucas and sami tried to warn him about not working for ej . he did n't want to listen to anything they had to say about ej . ej was disappointed that agent spencer ended up thinking like the salem police department thinks about him . ej warned agent spencer that he planned on suing for libel if they continued to accuse him of murdering stefano . nicole was eavesdropping on their conversation . ej was about to leave the pub when nicole stopped him . nicole offered her condolences because of what happened to stefano and lexie . ej told nicole that he lost two people in his family and was n't losing a child too . she reminded him that they had a dna test done . he did n't care what the test said because he knows the baby is his . ej received a phone call from the hospital administrator . nicole wanted to know why he received a call from the hospital administrator . ej wondered why she cared that he got the call . agent spencer and rafe talked about ej being a suspect in stefano 's murder . agent spencer was convinced that ej wo n't cooperate with them . they are going to have to build a case against ej . they also talked about the other suspects , but rafe was convinced that ej was the main suspect . sami told lucas she was going to go to ej to find out if he 's blackmailing will again . lucas warned her that was a bad idea . lucas warned her that if she pushed ej he will push harder . lucas wanted to talk to will again and work something out . lucas told her not to talk to ej by herself . she said she would n't go because she had meetings . when lucas walked off , sami called someone and said to cancel her meetings .
<s>[INST] will : nothing that i ca n't handle . sami : look , you know i do n't buy that . he 's forcing you to work for him again , is n't he ? lucas : sonny , will you give us a second ? we want to talk to will alone . sonny : yeah , of course . see you later , man . sami : will , listen to -- will , come on . you know you ca n't work for him . it 's too dangerous . you almost got prosecuted for stefano 's murder . will : but i was n't . lucas : well , not this time , you were n't , but what about further down the road ? now your mother 's right . any association with the dimera 's is bad news , man . [ scene_break ] rafe : well , well , well . nicole : hey . rafe : glad i ran into you . nicole : why ? rafe : hmm . you do n't think you have any explaining to do ? i mean , despite our best efforts to convince ej that you and i slept together and made this baby , well , we both know it did n't happen . nicole : and i am eternally grateful for your help . rafe : well , all right . so , how about keeping me in the loop ? nicole : about what ? rafe : who switched the dna test results ? you ? daniel ? nicole : look , rafe , i was trying to protect you . we both know the less you know about what happened with the dna test , the better off you are . rafe : okay . well , i appreciate you trying to protect me , but we 're on dangerous ground here now . if ej finds out that the test results were switched , he 's gon na come after me , you , or even dan . nicole : i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry you got caught up in the middle of all this . i know you 're a good guy who plays by the rules , but i could n't let ej find out the truth . rafe : and i do n't want him to . i want you to know i 'm gon na do whatever it takes to protect you and that baby . now let 's be honest . ej 's never believed that i am the father of the child , and you know as well as i do he 's gon na insist on another dna test . nicole : okay , if that happens , i 'll deal with it then . rafe : we 'll deal with it . okay ? nicole : yes , thank you . thank you , but as of now , ej has no claim on my baby . ej : well , at least not right now , eh ? [ scene_break ] will : i can handle ej . sami : oh , famous last words . will : you know what , instead of complaining , why do n't we all just be grateful that he bailed me out of jail ? sami : will , we were gon na bail you out of jail . stop it right now . lucas : and you know what ? sami : we were gon na do that if you 'd given us half a chance . lucas : he did n't bail you out out of the goodness of his heart either . he did it because he has an agenda . you know that , he always does . sami : he must have said something to you about it . what does he expect for bailing you out ? will : um , he wants me to work for the mayor 's office ? sami : do we look like we were born yesterday ? lucas : is he even paying you for that ? will : yeah . sami : lucas , that 's not -- lucas : what ? sami : the point is you should get out . get out now while you still can . lucas : before you 're in over your head . will : oh , my god , i ca n't . you know i ca n't . sami : because of the shoo -- because of that ? because he 's still holding that over your head , is n't he ? sami : of course . of course he 's still using the shooting against you . i 'm not surprised . he would use it against you for the rest of your life if you let him . lucas : there must be something we can do about this . will : no , we are not gon na do anything , okay , because this is my life . my life . and i will handle ej . [ scene_break ] ej : oh , sorry , i did n't mean to interrupt your little tête - à - tête . i just -- of course i could n't help hearing that you 're having a conversation about me and the baby . nicole : of course . ej : i 'm sensing a tiny bit of stress between our two parents - to - be . you know that 's not good for the baby , right ? nicole : you know what , ej , my stress levels rise at the mere mention of your name , and rafe 's been concerned , because of the upset you 've caused me , the threats , the demands . i have n't been eating . but now that the paternity test is over , and you officially have no claim on my child , i am going to that bar , and i 'm ordering enough food for two -- for me and my baby . ej : do you think i touched a nerve ? you know what , rafe , i have to say ... i 'm rather glad i bumped into you . i want to have a conversation with you about my father 's murder investigation . rafe : wow , that 's funny . last time i tried to talk to you about it , you kicked me out of your house . ej : well , you promised me evidence , and you came around empty - handed . rafe : right , well , the investigation 's ongoing . that 's all you need to know . ej : have you found any new evidence ? do you have any new suspects ? rafe : come on . you know i ca n't actually discuss that with a suspect . can i ? no . oh , and if you were to dismiss me , everyone in town would know that you actually are hiding something . ej : you are aware that the entire town is already very familiar with the close ties that you and commissioner brady have to all of the suspects ? rafe : not all of them . spencer : mr. mayor . well , i did n't expect to see the two of you together . have you changed your mind about cooperating with us ? you finally ready to tell us everything you know ? [ scene_break ] lucas : you know , your mother and i have a lot more experience dealing with ej over the years than you do . sami : will , sit down . your father 's right . lucas : now he might be keeping your secret now , yeah , because he wants you under his thumb , but eventually he 's gon na have no use for you . and then he 's gon na tell everybody that you shot him , no matter how loyal you 've been to him . will : well , i have to take my chances . okay , look , as far as college jobs go , this is not a bad gig . okay ? would you rather me , um , bus tables at a coffeehouse ? sami : hey , you know what , you should be happy to take any honest job . whatever it is . will : yes , but this is gon na look a hell of a lot better on my resume than serving lattes . lucas : well , you know , you should n't be thinking about work right now . you should be thinking about school . so do n't grow up so fast , okay ? will : i did n't have a choice . sami : okay . obviously ... another slam against me , and i know i deserve it . but you know what ? we want to help you . okay ? i know this is , like , a rough time for you . you just were outed in the paper . and you have to deal with working for ej against your will , and we think we can help you . so , let us . will : i 'm handling this just fine on my own . okay ? thank you . i know how to manage ej . okay ? great . lucas : i do n't know about -- will : you know what , i got to go . lucas : you do n't have to go , because we 're not finished here . will : yeah , we are , okay ? please do n't worry about me . all right ? do n't . sami : do n't worry about him ? has he met me ? lucas : yeah , i know . i know . sami : we just -- we just ca n't let it keep going like this . we have to do something . we have to help him . [ scene_break ] ej : agent spencer . you know , i had rather hoped , when you took over this investigation , that you would bring a breath of fresh air to this case . it 's disappointing , to be frank , that you seem to be following the salem police department down the same tired road . spencer : and what road is that , mr. dimera ? ej : the one that leads to me being a suspect in my father 's murder . spencer : you are a suspect . your fingerprints were found on the murder weapon . ej : yes , as were seven other people 's . spencer : had you been cooperative early on , we may have been able to eliminate you as a suspect . ej : let me make something very clear to you gentlemen . flimsy , circumstantial evidence is not going to see me convicted of a crime i did not commit . i loved my father very much . rafe : even though he disinherited you ? ej : furthermore , i am the mayor of this town . and so should your little investigation in any way libel , slander , or impede me , there will be hell to pay . spencer : duly noted , mr. mayor . ej : i suggest you gentlemen think long and hard before you make any rash decisions . i think this little conversation is over . rafe : i 'd say that about says it all . hmm ? nicole : ej , hey , wait . wait . ej : what is it you want , nikki ? nicole : uh ... there 's something i need to tell you . i ca n't tell you how sorry i was to hear about lexie 's death . i know how much you loved your sister , and i ca n't imagine how difficult this must be for you , losing her so soon after stefano . ej : thank you . that means a lot to hear you say that . given these sad circumstances , i would hope that you would understand what i 'm doing . nicole : what do you mean ? ej : i just lost two members of my immediate family . i 'm quite determined , nicole . i 'm not going to lose that child as well . nicole : ej , the dna test proved -- ej : i do n't care what the dna test said , nicole . that 's my child . [ cell phone rings ] i 'm sorry . excuse me . i have to take this . it 's the hospital administrator returning my call . nicole : why were you calling the hospital ? ej : why would you be concerned that i was talking to the hospital administrator , nikki ? [ scene_break ] spencer : we 've turned up the pressure , but it 's -- but he 's not gon na slip . i 'd say it 's clear the only way ej dimera 's going to cooperate with this investigation is if we find some evidence against him to use as leverage . rafe : yeah . did your interviews with the other suspects turn up anything we can use ? spencer : no , they pretty much confirmed what you and roman already told me . there 's still a lot of work to do there too . rafe : well , great . so , all of our suspects have motive , they all have their prints on the murder weapon , and yet none of them tested positive for gunpowder residue . spencer : well , the killer could have worn gloves . rafe : true . spencer : your money 's still on ej . rafe : i 'm trying not to be biased . spencer : good . 'cause he 's your boss , and he wo n't stand for that . rafe : look , we all know that ej has a history of doing despicable things to people , not to mention the fact that there was bad blood between ej and stefano because of the unexecuted will his father drew up . spencer : hmm . rafe : were stefano around today , ej would have nothing . nothing . spencer : means , motive , and opportunity . rafe : yeah , well , not to mention the fact that i think he 's the only suspect that 's capable . spencer : of shooting and killing his own father in cold blood ? rafe : absolutely . [ scene_break ] will : oh , hey . sonny : hey . will : what are you doing here ? sonny : well , your parents were a little upset , so i thought i 'd come and hang around , make sure you 're okay . will : oh , thank you . i appreciate that . sonny : so , what happened ? will : oh , nothing . just -- just arguing about , you know , working for ej , and they do n't think i can handle him . sonny : i do n't know if you want to hear this , but ... maybe they 're right . [ scene_break ] sami : ej blackmailing will -- i 'm gon na find him today , and i 'm gon na give him a piece of my mind . lucas : no , i told you that is the worst thing you could possibly do right now . sami : are you serious ? you want me to just stay here , do some window shopping ? just hope like hell it magically gets better all by itself ? lucas : no , sami , and i know you 're being a protective mother , and i respect that , but if you push ej , you know him . he 's gon na push back even harder . so forget it , all right ? we 'll talk to will , and we 'll work something else out , but ... i 'm telling you , do not confront ej about this by yourself . sami : all right , i hear you . lucas : you do ? sami : i have meetings this afternoon anyway . lucas : all right . good . go to your meetings ... be a good girl , and i 'll see you at home . we 'll talk about this later , okay ? but whatever we do , we do it together . sami : yeah , you know those meetings i have this afternoon ? yes , cancel them . all of them . [ scene_break ] ej : why are you so concerned about my talking to the hospital administrator ? hmm ? are you worried about your , uh , friend dr. jonas ? nicole : well , i would n't put it past you to make trouble for daniel or rafe , because they 're both my friends . ej : `` friends `` ? really ? i think `` accomplices `` would be a slightly more fitting description , do n't you ? nicole : [ scoffs ] ej : okay , if you must know ... i was calling to discuss making a contribution as a memorial to my sister . nicole : oh , uh ... well , that 's a wonderful thing to do . i know lexie would be happy about that , and so would abe and theo . ej : my family is very precious to me . nicole : i know . ej : then you should know that there 's nothing that you can do to keep me from this child , nicole . nothing . [ scene_break ] rafe : ej 's reluctance to even be interviewed 's a clear indication he 's hiding something . spencer : yes , well , unfortunately , all we have right now are theories . rafe : yeah , theories that are starting to add up -- the missing pension funds , the revised will -- spencer : still , i 've reviewed all the evidence from the mansion and there 's nothing there that shows that ej is more of a suspect than anyone else . rafe : wait a second .

'cause i thought it was like how you look at johnny and sydney . when i delude myself into actually thinking that you have real , human emotions . ej : let me tell you something . my love for my children and my concern for your son are both very genuine . sami : then why are you trapping him into working for you again ? ej : he likes working for me , samantha ! ask him ! he says it all the bloody time ! sami : do n't you think he has bigger issues to deal with right now ? he was just outed to the entire town , and not in a manner of his choosing . why do n't you let him deal with that before you go after him again ? ej : you know what , maybe he 's not the only person who has bigger issues to deal with , all right ? my father just died . and my sister died . why do n't you think about that for a second , samantha , before you start digging your claws into me ? of course , you have n't even taken a second to consider the fact that i lost my father and my sister within a couple of days of one another . losing alexandra was devastating . sami : i 'm sure it was . ej : i do n't care what people thought about stefano , the man was my father . i realize it 's very difficult for you , samantha , to put other people ahead of yourself , but you 're not the only person who 's suffering here , all right ? sami : ej , i know how much you cared about lexie . i know how important she was to you , and i - i can only imagine how you must be feeling right now . ej : so you -- what , you thought you 'd just come over and make me feel worse , did you ? sami : i 'm sorry for your loss . i really am .

[ scene_break ] ej : lexie gave me so much , and ... she asked so little in return . one of the things that she asked me , though , samantha , is ... she wanted me to make sure that theo stayed in contact with johnny and sydney . sami : of course . you know i 'm okay with that . ej : thank you . let 's talk about william . he 's -- he 's an adult , samantha . he 's quite capable of making his own choices . sami : ej , this is n't a choice . you are forcing him to work for you . ej : samantha , i 'm the mayor . okay ? i run dimera enterprises . it 's not a nefarious organization . sami : oh ! give me a break . ej : okay , fine . all right , if you do n't wish him to continue under my personal tutelage , i 'd give him another job . maybe he could work for countess wilhelmina . sami : great . you 'd let him work for me ? ej : not exactly , no . i thought that maybe you could work for him . how does that sound ? hmm ? sami : wait a second , ej . you said that -- after stefano died , you said that i was gon na get to run countess wilhelmina . ej : well , i think i 'm perfectly entitled to change my mind .

[ scene_break ] sonny : you know , will 's a lot tougher than you think . he 's been through a lot these past few months , and he never caved because of pressure . so it definitely made him stronger . lucas : yeah . yeah , i know . i like to think that you have a lot to do with that , you know . if will did n't have you in his corner , things would be a lot worse , so i 'm grateful that -- that you 're in his life . sonny : well , me too . i would -- i would do anything for will . lucas : can i ask you a personal question ? sonny : yeah , sure . lucas : i mean , it 's just the way you said it right now makes me think , you know -- sonny : makes you think what ? lucas : that you have feelings for my son . more than a friend . [ scene_break ] rafe : you know what , nicole ? by the time that sweet little baby 's born , ej might not even be in the picture . nicole : why ? rafe : well , he 's still a suspect in stefano 's murder , right ? if prosecuted , he could go to jail . nicole : oh , god , i do n't want to believe that ej shot his own father . but i do know they were n't on the best of terms before stefano died . rafe : yeah . excuse me . hey . spencer : i put in for a warrant to search ej 's apartment , but i 'm not too optimistic about getting it . nicole : um , excuse me . agent spencer , right ? spencer : yes ? nicole : i 'm nicole dimera . i 'm ej 's wife . and , you know , i 'd be more than happy to help in this investigation in any way i can . spencer : you would ? nicole : yeah . you certainly do n't have to get a warrant to search his apartment . i can do that for you .

[ mary exhales ] mary : i regret the time that i did n't spend with her , and i will always be grateful for being there for her happy day . erica : it 's a well - known fact that greenlee and i did n't see eye to eye on many things . on anything . amanda : greenlee gave me a chance at fusion , and that meant so much to me . jake : the girl was a remote hogger . she 'd hog the remote . she did . she also had no appreciation for fine dog art , pictures with dogs in it . erica : but greenlee was passionate about life and about the people she loved . amanda : she could be a hard - ass , but she was fair . jake : greenlee was the person you wanted to be stranded on a dessert island with . she was also really good at playing `` three 's company . `` it 's a long story . kendall : hate at first sight , that was greenlee and me . we fought over jobs , men , the color of the sky , and then we made lipstick together . we became business partners and best friends . oh , we still fought . we -- we still hurt each other , but our bond was deeper and stronger than any angry words , no matter how deep they cut . i always assumed that what we had would always be there no matter how angry we had been , how far apart we were , or how much time we 'd spent away from each other , and then one day , i realized there are no guarantees . no matter how hard you love or how close you are , it can all be taken away in an instant . i still ca n't accept that greenlee 's gone . i still hit her speed - dial number , and i wait to hear her laugh . i , um , i still expect to see her walk through the door .

[ scene_break ] hope : [ chuckles ] kayla : i wonder what 's keeping the guys . hope : yeah , looks like they got sidetracked . abe : oh , they 'll be along shortly . kayla : well , i hope so . we have a baby to get home to . theo : baby joe ? kayla : that 's right . baby joe . hope : [ chuckles ] theo : where is he ? kayla : he 's at home with the babysitter . hope : it 's so sweet , is n't it ? how much kids love babies . ciara 's exactly the same way . lexie : listen , speaking of ciara , thank her for that beautiful picture she drew for theo . hope : oh , of course . you know , it was her idea . lexie : yeah ? hope : theo , she misses you . keeps asking when you 're coming over again . lexie : oh . we have to set up a playdate . hope : a.s.a.p . lexie : a.s.a.p . , yes . abe : how can you all do it ? hope : we do n't know .

[ scene_break ] sami : god , i feel terrible for putting sister theresa in this position and asking her to cover for me ... but thank you so much for bringing me here , for introducing me to her , for ... for helping me through this difficult time . and i am so grateful to have a plan for my baby now . but i miss my -- my other babies , and i really want to go home and see them . and i 'm really worried about rafe right now . i do n't understand what 's keeping him . [ flashback ] rafe : i admit that when i first got this assignment , i was n't too thrilled . sami : really ? i had no idea . rafe : but now i see the importance of it . not only am i protecting a child , but someone that i 've grown to , uh ... sami : to what ? rafe : care about , i guess . that 's one way to put it . sami : thanks . you have no idea how much that means to me . rafe : okay . [ flashback ends ] sami : please , god , keep him safe . [ scene_break ] mia : `` dear daughter , i 'm writing to tell you ... that i 'm going to miss you ... badly . but that 's okay because i know you 're going to have a good life . nicole does n't want you knowing about me , so you 'll probably never see this , but ... if somehow you ever find out you were adopted and you do read this , you should know that ... i did n't want to give you up , but i ca n't take care of you like she can , so i know this is the best thing for you , but it does n't mean i do n't love you because i do , so much . `` how am i supposed to do this ? [ flashback ] nicole : there are certain advantages that i could give this child , but that 's not what this is about . it 's not . this is about love . and that 's what i want to give your little girl or boy . so much love , because i want this baby more than anything . more ... more than my life . [ flashback ends ] mia : now that i 've seen you , how can i give you up ? [ scene_break ] abe : well , was it something i said ? lexie : no , i think they just want to give us some family time alone . abe : not complaining . hey , buddy . put the spoon down , huh ? lexie : no , honey , it 's okay . it 's okay . he 's enjoying himself . listen , this is the new lexie . this whole experience has taught me something . from now on , i 'm going to be much more relaxed around theo . i am just so grateful to have him back .

[ scene_break ] hope : you are not taking me off this case . and why would you want to ? are you unhappy with my work ? bo : you know i 'm not . hope : well , it ca n't be because you want me home cooking for you every night . bo : well , that would be nice . hope : you did n't just say that . bo : i like you to be home , period . i do n't need you cooking for me . hope : that 's a relief , since i ca n't cook anyway . and here i thought you were being a chauvinist jerk . bo : i just do n't want you out in the field , not on this case . hope : look , if i wanted a desk job , i would have accepted the commissioner 's job when it was offered to me . bo : yeah , but you did n't , so now i 'm your boss . sorry . hope : and i 'm your wife . kayla : you know what ? i think that we 're gon na give you guys some privacy . it 's been fun . steve : yeah . we 'll catch you later , huh ? bo : yeah , later . [ scene_break ] kayla : why would he do that to her ? what do you think 's bothering him ? steve : come on , baby . you know how he worries about hope . besides , i think it might be for the best . kayla : what , you think that she should be home cooking for him , too ? maybe you think that she should be getting his slippers for him . steve : you know that 's not what i 'm saying . kayla : what are you saying ? steve : i 'm saying i 'm happy they had their little disagreement . because now i can have some private time with my wife . kayla : [ chuckles ] [ scene_break ] bo : come on , fancy face , i do n't want to fight about this . hope : what 's the real reason you want me off this case ? what are you hiding , brady ?

[ scene_break ] brad : oh , thanks , man . hey . lucas : hey . brad : you could join me if you want . lucas : yeah , thanks . i - i 'd like that . [ sighs ] [ chuckles ] it 's funny . i miss this place , even though there are , like , a million coffee shops in seattle . brad : yeah . no surprise there . is n't it , like , ground zero of the coffee revolution ? lucas : yeah , but not all the places there are gourmet or tragically hip , full of dudes with mustaches . some are just like this -- just basic diners with good food . there was this one place a couple of blocks from where i lived . oh , man . i always insisted on going there . brad : let me guess . killer blts ? lucas : as close as you can get to kelly 's . and that 's what i just realized . i used to love going there , because it reminded me of home . brad : wait , wait , wait . so the whole time you were living in seattle , you did n't know you were homesick ? lucas : mm . well , i went to college on the west coast . seattle 's a great city . and i love to be outside . i love to play sports . and i do n't mind the rain , so it seemed like a perfect fit . the thing that never occurred to me , at least until now , is the reason why i stayed . nobody in seattle knows anything about my family . nobody cares that my uncle is the legendary luke spencer . nobody cares that my sister is the ex - wife of one of the biggest mobsters on the eastern seaboard . brad : crap . that never occurred to me . lucas : what ? brad : well , everybody knows carly jacks used to be carly corinthos , and sonny corinthos and julian jerome have got this power struggle going on , which -- i do n't know -- has got to make it real uncomfortable for you and your sister . i mean , especially you trying to get to know your bio dad . lucas : oh , no . [ chuckles ] any plans i had to get to know julian have been put on hold . yeah . turns out my biological father is being held for questioning at the pcpd . [ scene_break ] julian : so now that we 're both in agreement , can we get the ball rolling on this whole thing ? the sooner it 's done , the better off i 'll be . ric : agreed . anna : you two ... thick as thieves . so funny when those old sayings are so appropriate , is n't it ? i 'm not interrupting anything , am i ? [ scene_break ] carly : so you went through brad 's phone . felix : wait , that 's what you took from my whole sad story ? i did n't go through his phone . the text just popped up . carly : and then you went through his phone . felix : okay , why are we focusing on my slight social faux pas ? brad was the one that slept with someone else . carly : fine . i am on your side . i really am . felix : thanks . i do n't know if i am . carly : what are you talking about ? felix : well , it 's not like brad and i said we 'd be exclusive . i mean , we 'd just started dating . [ sighs ] i need to stop focusing on those things . sometimes i think i 'm the only ... hmm - something who thinks sex is a big deal , that it 's important , who wants to , you know , wait for the right moment before going there with someone . i guess i 'm just too old - fashioned for my own good . carly : no , you 're not . do n't talk like that about yourself . there 's nothing wrong with taking a relationship slowly . felix : hey , i was under the impression that was n't your style . carly : uh , yeah , i can be a bit impulsive . we both know that . but there have been times where i waited , and i 'm almost always glad that i did . look , if you want a special bond with someone , then you deserve to be with someone who wants the same thing . felix : i guess . carly : no , definitely . and if brad wants to pick up some random guy at a bar and not it for the prize you are , that 's his problem . who was the himbo , anyway ? felix : some dude named lucas . carly : lucas ? you said lucas ? felix : yeah , lucas jones . sounds like a low - rent porn star , if you ask me . carly : uh , no . no porn star . my brother . [ scene_break ] brad : your father is being held for questioning ? what about ? lucas : yeah , aj quartermaine was shot last night . they do n't think he 's gon na make it . brad : [ sighs ] and the cops think julian jerome did it ? lucas : no arrest yet , but it 's coming . they got a pretty strong case . brad : how do you know ? lucas : well , one way or another , i 'm related to half the people in port charles , including my cousin 's husband , the police detective . the cops walked in and found julian with a gun in his hand , standing over aj quartermaine 's body . brad : what does julian have to say ? lucas : oh , he 's innocent , of course . that he just walked in and ... oh , did i mention that the shooting actually happened at the penthouse where julian 's staying ? brad : no . lucas : yeah . he 's staying there with his sister . anyway , so julian says that he walked in , saw aj lying in a pool of blood with the gun next to him , so he thought the shooter might still be in the apartment . so he picked up the gun to defend himself . brad : that is either the most feeble cover story i 've ever heard ... or it 's so ridiculous that it actually might be true . lucas : yeah , well , it gets worse . aj quartermaine is the biological father of carly 's son michael . brad : geez . when you said you were related to half of the city , you were n't kidding . lucas : yeah , i mean , what am i supposed to say to michael if aj dies ? `` oh , hey , man , sorry . god , i guess julian really was as bad as everyone said . `` brad : [ sighs ] slow down . i do n't see how your nephew or anyone else , for that matter , could blame you for what julian did , all right ? so stop blaming yourself . lucas : i just feel like an idiot . i knew what julian was about . even if half the people i know had n't warned me about him , all i had to do was run an internet search . the guy 's got a criminal record a mile long . the only reason he walked away from it is because he cut some kind of deal . i mean , as soon as he came back to port charles , he started a war with sonny -- shootouts , warehouse explosions . it 's -- i mean , yeah , the guy 's my dad , says he wants to get to know me . sure , he 's a homophobic bigot , but , ah , hey , wants to try to get past that . i just ca n't believe that i -- that i fell for that . you know , i actually considered having a relationship with this guy . [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] shawn : just so we 're both perfectly clear , when i said that you and molly could n't move in with each other , that was not an invitation that she could move in with us either . tj : yeah , thanks . i figured that . shawn : look , you know , she 's too young , and alexis definitely would n't go along with that . tj : yeah , okay , well , she 's not moving out on her own , okay ? she 's moving in with her father . shawn : ric lansing ? tj : yeah . what about him ? shawn : oh , that 's not a good idea . [ scene_break ] molly : oh , my god . you are totally overreacting . alexis : then you tell me how i 'm supposed to react when ric informs me that you want to move in with him . molly : he 's my dad , is n't he ? what 's wrong with that ? alexis : well , that was n't part of the arrangement when he moved away . molly : well , he 's here now . and maybe he 'll be able to understand that i 'm not a little girl anymore . alexis : i know that you 're not a little girl , but you are not an adult either , and you certainly are n't old enough to do what you were doing with tj . molly : well , maybe dad will see it differently when i move in with him . alexis : you will move in with ric over my dead body ! [ scene_break ] ric : no , just attorney - client talk . nothing for you to worry about . commissioner devane , i 'm sorry . i have n't formally introduced myself . my name is ric lansing . anna : i know who you are . mainly by reputation . you 're -- you 're mr. corinthos ' brother , are n't you ? ric : yes . yes , i am . anna : yeah . and when i found out that you were coming down here to talk with mr. jerome , i pulled your file . quite an extensive history on both sides of the law . very creative methods were employed to keep you out of pentonville . it made me kind of curious as to what kind of favors were pulled in , you know , on your behalf . there must have been some significant leverage applied to get you a spot as da . ric : well , i served with distinction . anna : yeah . but your tenure was characterized with blatant corruption . is n't that part of the reason that you were packed off to a private practice in la ? ric : no , that 's not quite how it happened . i am a defense attorney , yes . mr. jerome 's defense attorney , to be exact . i demand that you either charge or release my client . anna : i do n't think so . i 've only had mr. jerome here for 24 hours . legally , i can keep him here for 48 . he 's a person of interest , you see . he was found standing over aj quartermaine 's body , holding the gun that shot him . is n't that right , mr. jerome ? [ scene_break ] aj : [ coughing ] michael : dad , dad , take it easy . can you get this thing out of his mouth ? monica : no , no , no , no . try not to fight it , aj . we have to wait for the icu unit . michael : h - he 's awake . monica : he woke up agitated . he 's been trying to speak . doctor : i need you to relax for me , aj . kiki : he 's talking , michael ? michael : yeah , he seems to recognize us . we ca n't really understand him , because of the tube in his mouth , but he seems like himself . kiki : that 's so great . that 's so great . michael : i just hope he can tell us who did this to him . [ scene_break ] sonny : aj got what was coming to him ? you really mean that ? olivia : i do . i do . and i know that that sounds terrible . and you know that i would never actively wish harm on any person . but i just -- i do n't have it in my heart to feel sorry for aj quartermaine . because you know what ? connie was unarmed . she was defenseless . and he left her to bleed out on this office floor . and then he walked out of here , fell through the cracks of the system , and got off scot free . sonny : i 'm not arguing with you . you know how i feel about aj . olivia : i 'm glad it was julian jerome that did it . i 'm glad he got caught . that guy has been putting you and morgan and everybody i love in danger for months now . sonny : you know what ? he 's a serious threat , julian . olivia : anna catching him red - handed . man , you want to talk about killing two birds with one stone . [ scene_break ] julian : i told you , commissioner , i picked up the gun for my own protection after i found aj shot and lying on the floor . ric : there . simple enough . you have as much evidence to corroborate my client 's story as you do to refute it . you have no reason to hold him here . anna : no reason other than his past criminal acts , many of which i 'm personally familiar with . ric : ah . oh , so this is a personal grudge against mr. jerome . i must say , if that 's the case , then i will have to bring a rather large lawsuit against the county , the city , and you , as well , miss devane . you know , from what i hear from the short time that i 've been back , mayor lomax is just looking for a reason to kick you to the curb . you know what ? i 'm happy to give her one . so here 's the deal , commissioner . you release my client immediately , or you lose your job and every penny that you have . anna : why go to so much trouble , mr. lansing ? all you have to do is ask your client to give us the name of the person he was with when the crime was committed . [ scene_break ] brad : [ sighs ] lucas : sorry for the meltdown . brad : no , no . it 's fine . lucas : [ chuckles ] okay , it 's not like i have a big emotional investment in julian . i just met him . i mostly did n't like him . and now i wo n't need to get to know him any better . brad : what if he 's innocent ? lucas : seriously ? we 're talking about julian jerome , mob kingpin here . brad : yeah , but like i said , the story he told the cops -- i mean , it 's so ludicrous that it almost has to be true . i mean , would n't any self - respecting gangster call in a couple of henchmen to get rid of the body ? or at least have the presence of mind to wipe his prints from the gun . lucas : maybe he did n't have time . brad : or maybe , as awful as he is , julian jerome did n't commit this particular crime . and if it turns out that he 's innocent ... all right , maybe `` innocent 's `` too strong a word . let 's try ... lucas : yeah . brad : ... not culpable . are you willing to give him a chance ? lucas : [ sighs ] i do n't know . would you want to get to know your gangster father if you had the chance ? brad : lucky for me , i 'll never have to decide . lucas : maybe i wo n't either . if julian 's found guilty , i can cut ties and walk away . brad : but is that what you want ? lucas : i do n't know what i want . i do n't know what the hell i want to do about anything right now , especially julian . i do n't even know how i ... [ exhales sharply ] ah , man . just forget it . can we talk about something else ? what have you been doing ? i have n't really seen you since valentine 's day . ah , have you been holing up with your boyfriend ? brad : not exactly . things are ... kind of over between felix and me . lucas : oh . i 'm sorry . what happened ? brad : you . [ scene_break ] felix : your brother ? carly : yeah , light - brown hair , blue eyes . great smile . felix : oh , my god . lucas is your brother ? carly : yeah , if we 're talking about the same lucas jones . felix : okay . [ sighs ] we 've been friends for over a year , and never in that time did you feel the need to mention him ? carly : i definitely mentioned that i have a brother . felix : nor that he 's gay ! even while i was suffering through bad date after bad date , looking for mr . right . carly : are you serious right now ? lucas lives in seattle . why would i assume that you guys are a match made in heaven ? because he 's gay ? felix : [ sighs ] you 're right . you 're right . look , i 'm -- i 'm just ranting . do n't even listen to me . carly : no , i understand . you 're disappointed . i ca n't believe it 's my brother that came between you and brad . felix : well , look , for the record , lucas did n't know that brad and i were about to start something . it 's not his fault . carly : i 'm sorry . i am . but , you know , you said that brad did n't think you guys were exclusive . and i 'm not taking his side . but maybe now that he knows , well , he wo n't make the same mistake twice . felix : you think ? carly : well , yeah . i do n't know . but if you have the chance to salvage something good , you should at least talk to him about it . [ scene_break ] lucas : brad , i 'm really sorry . if i had known felix was gon na see those messages , i would not have sent them . brad : you should n't have been sending them at all . i told you i wanted to see where things were gon na go with felix . lucas : i know . i know . you 're right . you 're absolutely right . i 'm sorry . brad : [ sighs ] it 's -- it 's okay . what 's done is done , right ? i mean , it 's my fault , anyway . you did n't know anything about felix when we first hooked up . i 'm the one who ruined things . lucas : so , are you and felix ... done ? brad : sure looks that way . lucas : then what 's stopping us from seeing where this is going ? [ scene_break ] tj : wow . you have a really strong opinion about molly 's dad . what 's that all about ? sonny : i think i know who 's bankrolling julian jerome . shawn : you do ? who ? sonny : my brother . shawn : look , tj , you 're just gon na have to trust me on this one , man . tj : what 's going on ? [ cell phone chimes ] shawn : tj , i need you to lock up after your shift , okay ? tj : shawn , tell me what 's going on . [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] molly : he is my father , is n't he ? i can live with him if i want . he 's got shared custody , after all . alexis : which he has n't taken advantage of in all the years since he moved away . molly : because he was in la . he did n't want to pull me away from my life . alexis : he told you that ? molly : it does n't matter . dad is here now . alexis : right . and he 's living in a hotel . molly : he 's getting another place . alexis : well , that 's not the point . molly : okay , then what is the point ? alexis : do you know the kind of people that your father is associated with ? [ scene_break ] anna : you must agree that your client could save us a lot of time and trouble if he would just give us the name of his alibi . ric : there 's no reason to reveal his identity . anna : why ? 'cause the less said about this person , the less likely that they exist . ric : i think that we should get back to the lawsuit that i 'm gon na file on behalf of my client . anna : you 're living up to your unsavory reputation , are n't you ? i ca n't imagine that these intimidating tactics worked with mac scorpio when you were last here . and quite frankly , i find it very offensive that you think they 're going to work with me . as for the mayor , i 'll take my chances . i have the law and the facts on my side in this instance , and until i find any evidence clearing your client , he 's gon na spend the next day behind bars . officer : commissioner -- anna : and a lot longer if i have my way . yes ? officer : you 're needed in your office . anna : oh . okay . i have to go . i have something to attend to . ric : we 're not through with this . anna : yes , we 're through . julian : so ... you 're the man with the plan . what do we do now ? [ scene_break ] olivia : [ sighs ] i know that the best thing that i can do right now is just accept this for what it is and move on , stop thinking about it , but there 's just ... there 's something that keeps bothering me . i mean , why would julian want to kill aj ? sonny : i thought i told you that , you know , aj was looking for a job with the jeromes . olivia : right . right , you said that . you said that . but would n't that make you an asset ? huh ? why would n't , uh , julian want to use you against him ? why would he want him dead ? sonny : you got me . olivia : maybe aj would n't take no for an answer . maybe -- maybe when julian turned him down , he just kept pushing it and pushing it , you know , the way he did with connie . and i - i 'm sorry that i 'm taking any satisfaction from this . you know that i love michael like he was my own son , right ? and he 's got to be in a world of pain right now . to think ... michael thought aj was safe because you promised not to hurt him . now someone else comes in and tries to kill him . [ scene_break ] kiki : here . michael : here . here , here . doctor : we need aj to take it easy . his body 's been through an extreme trauma . do whatever you can to keep him relaxed . he may be awake , but he 's not out of the woods yet . monica : okay . thank you very much . michael : do you know where you are ? that 's good . that 's good . that 's good . you just had surgery . you were shot . do you remember what happened to you ? sonny : i 'm done listening to you ! i 'm done ! aj : i did n't kill connie ! [ gunshot ] michael : they found you a - at ava jerome 's penthouse . the cops found julian jerome standing over you with a gun . is he the one who shot you ? aj : [ raspy ] no . michael : dad , i do n't understand . did julian shoot you ? aj : no . no . [ scene_break ] alexis : i do n't think i need to remind you of all the things that your father has done . i think i 've been very honest with you about the people that he works with and the places . he worked with faith roscoe and the zaccharas . molly : oh , okay , so you mean mobsters . you represent uncle sonny ! and you 've always told me that it 's because you believe so strongly in the bill of rights , that everyone is entitled to a proper defense . is n't that just what dad was doing ? alexis : you are not moving in with your father , period ! the end ! molly : oh , my god ! you suck ! alexis : what ? ! do n't you use that tone with me , young lady ! [ door slams ] alexis : [ sighs ] that went well . [ doorbell rings ] alexis : now what ? ! [ scene_break ] sonny : when aj showed up , crawling back home after years of hiding , i knew michael was the one who 's gon na pay the price . aj latched on to michael . would n't let him go , whining about being his father and needing him and ... aj 's not michael 's father . he 's a drunk who had a one - night stand with carly , and michael was the result . i raised michael . he 's my son . and i hate that he 's going through this right now , that he 's at the hospital , sitting vigil for that son of a bitch . olivia : sonny -- sonny : he should not have to be going through this , and i do n't know -- [ knock on door ] shawn : sonny ? hey , olivia . how you doing ? olivia : shawn . sonny : hey . i did n't know -- i did n't know you were gon na come back tonight . shawn : yeah , i just got some information . um , one of our friends in the know just texted me . julian got himself a new lawyer . sonny : diane will take any case as long as the check clears . shawn : not talking about diane . [ scene_break ] ric : bad time ? [ scene_break ] brad : lucas , i just , uh ... i do n't know . lucas : [ chuckles ] okay . look , the last thing that i want to be is that guy who ca n't take a hint . brad : [ chuckles ] lucas : but i do n't think i imagined what happened between us , right ? we have a lot in common . and i think that you like spending time with me just as much as i like spending time with you . if i 'm not mistaken . brad : you 're not . lucas : the only reason we did n't pursue this before is because you wanted to see where things were gon na go with felix . but now felix is out of the picture , so ... why do n't we give it a chance ? brad : [ chuckles ] lucas : we had a good thing going , right ? [ scene_break ] felix : you 're right . no matter how this shakes down , i should try to talk to brad . carly : yeah . yeah , you really took your time deciding if you should give brad a chance . i do n't think you should just walk away now . felix : you 're right . you 're right . girl , you are always right . carly : always right . [ chuckles ] so , are you okay ? i need to get those coffees to kiki -- felix : yeah , of course . do n't worry about me . my shift 's about to end anyway . maybe i can track down brad . carly : there you go ! thank you for this , by the way . oh ! felix : thank you . carly : [ chuckles ] keep me posted . felix : all right . carly : all right . anna : oh , carly . h - how is aj ? did he say anything yet ? carly : i do n't know what you 're talking about . anna : you did n't hear ? carly : hear what ? anna : he 's awake . [ scene_break ] michael : dad , do you know what you 're saying ? julian jerome is n't the one who shot you . is that what you said ? aj : [ grunts ] monica : michael , michael , the doctors say you ca n't excite him . aj , please , just try to relax , honey . you can talk later . [ monitor beeping rapidly ] michael : wait , wait . hold on . aj : [ coughing ] monica : aj ? [ alarm beeping ] monica : oh , my -- michael : dad ! monica : aj ! michael : dad ! [ scene_break ] olivia : so ric is defending julian ? i ca n't say i 'm surprised . sonny : neither am i. ric 's -- that 's just the way ric is . all he wants to do is make my life miserable . before you came to town , he tried to kill me more than once . olivia : what ? sonny : yeah . olivia : sonny , you never told me it got that bad . sonny : everything quieted down when he left town . olivia : well , now he 's back , and he 's defending your worst enemy . shawn : well , this ca n't be just a coincidence . sonny : ric took julian on as a cover for everything else that 's going down . ric is funding julian 's entire operation . [ scene_break ] alexis : as usual , your timing is impeccable . ric : i 'm not interrupting -- alexis : yes , you 're interrupting ! you 're barging into my life , and you 're making a mess of everything . ric : okay , i 'll come back in the morning . alexis : no , you wo n't . get in here . this is a perfect opportunity for me to tell you that our daughter is not moving in with you . what were you thinking ? ric : i was just trying to help . obviously you two are at odds . alexis : and you 're taking advantage of it . ric : alexis , i am not the reason that you and molly are fighting , okay ? molly is trying to grow up , and you 're not letting her . do n't you think you two could use some space ? alexis : no ! unlike you , i 'm not a fan of long - distance parenting . and next time you want to question my judgment , come to me . do not go to our daughter and give her everything she wants , which makes me have to play the bad cop . ric : yeah , but you 're so good at it . okay , i 'm sorry that i did n't come to you first before i told molly that she could move in with me . but that 's not the reason that i 'm here . alexis : oh ? ric : yeah , i decided to , uh , to take julian 's case . alexis : did you get him released ? ric : no , not yet . devane 's determined to make this stick . she 's holding him for a full 48 hours unless she can find evidence to clear him . [ scene_break ] michael : dad , stay with me , please ! dad ! [ alarm beeping ] kiki : okay , back . monica : michael . aj seems to have had an aneurysm . you 've got to let the doctors help him . michael : no , i need to stay with him . kiki : michael , i know . he knows that you love him . okay , come on . come on . monica : please . kiki : you got to let them -- come on . carly : what 's happening ? anna : kiki , can i speak to you ? michael : he has to be okay . anna : i thought aj was conscious . kiki : he was , until this happened . anna : he did n't say anything , did he ? kiki : um , yes . aj said that julian was n't the one who shot him . anna : did he say who did ? kiki : no . no . he could n't get it out in time . anna : are you sure he did n't say anything else ? kiki : michael asked aj if julian was the one to shoot him , and aj definitely said no , and then when aj was about to tell us who did shoot him , his eyes started to roll behind his head , and , look , i really need to get back to michael . anna : no , of course . i 'm sorry . yes . kiki : hey . [ scene_break ] brad : i do n't know , lucas . i mean ... i do n't want you to feel like you 're some kind of ... silver medal to felix . lucas : that 's a little overdramatic , do n't you think ? it 's not like we were involved in some epic love triangle . you did n't choose felix over me . it was n't some competition . brad : no , it 's ... [ scoffs ] it is just my luck that i met you right when felix decides to give me a chance . lucas : yeah , that 's kind of my point . we barely know each other . but ... i 'd like to get to know you better . you 'd like that , too . brad : felix . felix : it 's okay . i can get my coffee somewhere else . brad : hey . you do n't have to leave . lucas : [ sighs ] felix : i do n't think we ever were formally introduced . felix dubois . lucas : lucas jones . felix : barely recognized you with your clothes on . so , i take it you two are seeing each other now . lucas : actually , we were just discussing that . felix : all right . well , far be it for me to get in the middle . brad : felix . felix , wait . felix : no , no . there 's nothing to say . like i said , you and lucas seem to have more in common than we do . i hope it works out for the both of you . brad : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] alexis : molly ? honey , please come in here so we can talk . i do n't want to leave things like this . mol ? [ door opens ] alexis : molly ! [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] tj : [ chuckles ] what the heck ? molly : sorry . i could n't resist . tj : do n't take this the wrong way , but , uh , should you be here ? molly : what , you do n't want me here ? tj : of course , i do . but i 'm saying , should n't we take it easy , at least until you move in with your dad ? molly : that might be harder than i thought . tj : what do you mean ? molly : my mom is refusing to let me move out . and i just know my dad is gon na cave in to her . she always gets her way . tj : why is she putting up such a fight ? molly : to make me miserable . tj : does she really think your dad is gon na give us his blessing to sleep together ? molly : well , of course , that 's the real reason , but she claims that it 's because my father has unsavory connections . [ scene_break ] ric : commissioner . i was surprised that your office called . i hope you did n't bring me down here to harass my client again . i 'm a very , very busy man -- anna : then i suggest you stop talking . julian : something has , uh , happened . anna : aj quartermaine regained consciousness . i was told he stated that julian jerome is not the person who shot him . you 're free to go . julian : well , you know , commissioner , maybe next time ... you 'll listen to me . anna : unlikely . ric : well , this is certainly fun . but i suggest you focus less on harassing my client and more on finding out who really did shoot aj . [ scene_break ] olivia : well , i got to get back to work . i would say , given how high tensions are running over at the hospital , i would steer clear if i were you . sonny : yeah , last thing michael needs to hear is -- is monica unloading on carly and me . i just want to make sure that my son knows that i 'm there for him . olivia : sonny , he knows . sonny : all right . see you around . olivia : see you . see you , shawn . shawn : she has no idea what really went down , does she ? sonny : no , thank god she did n't -- she did n't hear anything . [ cell phone rings ] shawn : good . sonny : you got to make sure it stays that way . hello ? carly : sonny , aj woke up . sonny : is he talking ? carly : not much . but he was able to tell michael that julian did n't shoot him . [ scene_break ] michael : what happened ? monica : aj suffered an aneurysm . it 's bleeding on the brain . michael : he 's gon na be okay , though , right ? right ? monica : i do n't know .
brad and lucas discuss julian . brad thinks julian 's story is probably true . julian and ric shake on an agreement at the jail . anna gets smarmy with ric about his history on the other side of the law . ric tells her that he will sue her for using her position for a personal vendetta . she says all she needs from julian is the name of the person he was with at the time of the shooting .

[ scene_break ] alexis : molly , this is your mother ... again . honey , you are not doing yourself any favors at all by not returning my phone call , and if you do n't make yourself available to me immediately , i 'm -- molly : are you calling me ? alexis : yes , i 'm calling you ! i 've been calling you . molly : well , i 'm here now . alexis : [ sighs ] your father was here earlier . what is all this about you wanting to move in with him ? [ scene_break ] ric : so , are we agreed ? julian : agreed . ric : good . i 'd say this was a rather productive meeting , do n't you ? everything 's falling into place . [ scene_break ] tj : alexis can forbid molly to see me all she wants , if she 's under her roof . but not if molly moves out . shawn : but molly 's 16 . she ca n't live on her own . tj : obviously . shawn : i hope you 're not getting any ideas of you two getting a place together . tj : what ? ! no . [ cell phone rings ] shawn : all right , we 'll discuss this later . here . refills . tj : gotcha . shawn : hey . what 's up ? sonny : yeah , i just want you to know everything 's okay . duke 's gon na back up my alibi . yeah , he , uh , he told anna devane that , uh , he was with me when aj was shot . yeah , i -- [ scene_break ] monica : my son , he w - wanted to be a better man . please , please let him finish what he started . please bring him back to me . aj ? aj ? aj .

[ scene_break ] michael : hold on . slow down . did aj open his eyes ? 'cause the doctor said he might do that without actually regaining consciousness . monica : i know that . but i was praying that he would come back to me , and all of a sudden , his hand moved , and then his eyes opened , and he responded to me . michael : a - are you sure ? monica : yes , i 'm sure . i pushed the call button . where are the doctors ? kiki : no , i 'll go see . you two go in with aj . michael : thank you . monica : all right . kiki : of course . yeah . go . go . michael : dad ? dad , can you hear me ? dad ? [ scene_break ] felix : whoa , whoa , whoa . what the hell are you doing ? carly : oh , thanks . just coffee . [ chuckles ] felix : what are you doing here ? i thought you were discharged days ago . carly : um ... well , yeah , but you did hear that aj quartermaine was shot , right ? felix : yeah , i - i was in the er when they crashed him in . i know michael was worried . how 's he holding up ? carly : well , i mean , michael 's the strongest person i know , but he has seen better days . felix : well , aj was badly wounded . i hear he 's still in critical . must be weird for you . carly : yeah , it is . you know , i do n't like aj at all , but michael loves him . and michael will probably be here all night , so i will be here with michael . felix : well , michael 's lucky to have you . here you go . carly : thank you . you okay ? felix : yeah . why would n't i be ? carly : you just seem off . felix : maybe i am . i ca n't get over brad . [ scene_break ] brad : oh , thanks , man . hey . lucas : hey . brad : you could join me if you want . lucas : yeah , thanks . i - i 'd like that . [ sighs ] [ chuckles ] it 's funny . i miss this place , even though there are , like , a million coffee shops in seattle . brad : yeah . no surprise there . is n't it , like , ground zero of the coffee revolution ? lucas : yeah , but not all the places there are gourmet or tragically hip , full of dudes with mustaches . some are just like this -- just basic diners with good food . there was this one place a couple of blocks from where i lived . oh , man . i always insisted on going there . brad : let me guess . killer blts ? lucas : as close as you can get to kelly 's . and that 's what i just realized . i used to love going there , because it reminded me of home . brad : wait , wait , wait . so the whole time you were living in seattle , you did n't know you were homesick ? lucas : mm . well , i went to college on the west coast . seattle 's a great city . and i love to be outside . i love to play sports . and i do n't mind the rain , so it seemed like a perfect fit . the thing that never occurred to me , at least until now , is the reason why i stayed . nobody in seattle knows anything about my family . nobody cares that my uncle is the legendary luke spencer . nobody cares that my sister is the ex - wife of one of the biggest mobsters on the eastern seaboard . brad : crap . that never occurred to me . lucas : what ? brad : well , everybody knows carly jacks used to be carly corinthos , and sonny corinthos and julian jerome have got this power struggle going on , which -- i do n't know -- has got to make it real uncomfortable for you and your sister . i mean , especially you trying to get to know your bio dad . lucas : oh , no . [ chuckles ] any plans i had to get to know julian have been put on hold . yeah . turns out my biological father is being held for questioning at the pcpd . [ scene_break ] julian : so now that we 're both in agreement , can we get the ball rolling on this whole thing ? the sooner it 's done , the better off i 'll be . ric : agreed . anna : you two ... thick as thieves . so funny when those old sayings are so appropriate , is n't it ? i 'm not interrupting anything , am i ? [ scene_break ] carly : so you went through brad 's phone . felix : wait , that 's what you took from my whole sad story ? i did n't go through his phone . the text just popped up . carly : and then you went through his phone . felix : okay , why are we focusing on my slight social faux pas ? brad was the one that slept with someone else . carly : fine . i am on your side . i really am . felix : thanks . i do n't know if i am . carly : what are you talking about ? felix : well , it 's not like brad and i said we 'd be exclusive . i mean , we 'd just started dating . [ sighs ] i need to stop focusing on those things . sometimes i think i 'm the only ... hmm - something who thinks sex is a big deal , that it 's important , who wants to , you know , wait for the right moment before going there with someone . i guess i 'm just too old - fashioned for my own good . carly : no , you 're not . do n't talk like that about yourself . there 's nothing wrong with taking a relationship slowly . felix : hey , i was under the impression that was n't your style . carly : uh , yeah , i can be a bit impulsive . we both know that . but there have been times where i waited , and i 'm almost always glad that i did . look , if you want a special bond with someone , then you deserve to be with someone who wants the same thing . felix : i guess . carly : no , definitely . and if brad wants to pick up some random guy at a bar and not it for the prize you are , that 's his problem . who was the himbo , anyway ? felix : some dude named lucas . carly : lucas ? you said lucas ? felix : yeah , lucas jones . sounds like a low - rent porn star , if you ask me . carly : uh , no . no porn star . my brother . [ scene_break ] brad : your father is being held for questioning ? what about ? lucas : yeah , aj quartermaine was shot last night . they do n't think he 's gon na make it . brad : [ sighs ] and the cops think julian jerome did it ? lucas : no arrest yet , but it 's coming . they got a pretty strong case . brad : how do you know ? lucas : well , one way or another , i 'm related to half the people in port charles , including my cousin 's husband , the police detective . the cops walked in and found julian with a gun in his hand , standing over aj quartermaine 's body . brad : what does julian have to say ? lucas : oh , he 's innocent , of course . that he just walked in and ... oh , did i mention that the shooting actually happened at the penthouse where julian 's staying ? brad : no . lucas : yeah . he 's staying there with his sister . anyway , so julian says that he walked in , saw aj lying in a pool of blood with the gun next to him , so he thought the shooter might still be in the apartment . so he picked up the gun to defend himself . brad : that is either the most feeble cover story i 've ever heard ... or it 's so ridiculous that it actually might be true . lucas : yeah , well , it gets worse . aj quartermaine is the biological father of carly 's son michael . brad : geez . when you said you were related to half of the city , you were n't kidding . lucas : yeah , i mean , what am i supposed to say to michael if aj dies ? `` oh , hey , man , sorry . god , i guess julian really was as bad as everyone said . `` brad : [ sighs ] slow down . i do n't see how your nephew or anyone else , for that matter , could blame you for what julian did , all right ? so stop blaming yourself . lucas : i just feel like an idiot . i knew what julian was about . even if half the people i know had n't warned me about him , all i had to do was run an internet search . the guy 's got a criminal record a mile long . the only reason he walked away from it is because he cut some kind of deal . i mean , as soon as he came back to port charles , he started a war with sonny -- shootouts , warehouse explosions . it 's -- i mean , yeah , the guy 's my dad , says he wants to get to know me . sure , he 's a homophobic bigot , but , ah , hey , wants to try to get past that . i just ca n't believe that i -- that i fell for that . you know , i actually considered having a relationship with this guy . [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] shawn : just so we 're both perfectly clear , when i said that you and molly could n't move in with each other , that was not an invitation that she could move in with us either . tj : yeah , thanks . i figured that . shawn : look , you know , she 's too young , and alexis definitely would n't go along with that . tj : yeah , okay , well , she 's not moving out on her own , okay ? she 's moving in with her father . shawn : ric lansing ? tj : yeah . what about him ? shawn : oh , that 's not a good idea . [ scene_break ] molly : oh , my god . you are totally overreacting . alexis : then you tell me how i 'm supposed to react when ric informs me that you want to move in with him . molly : he 's my dad , is n't he ? what 's wrong with that ? alexis : well , that was n't part of the arrangement when he moved away . molly : well , he 's here now . and maybe he 'll be able to understand that i 'm not a little girl anymore . alexis : i know that you 're not a little girl , but you are not an adult either , and you certainly are n't old enough to do what you were doing with tj . molly : well , maybe dad will see it differently when i move in with him . alexis : you will move in with ric over my dead body ! [ scene_break ] ric : no , just attorney - client talk . nothing for you to worry about . commissioner devane , i 'm sorry . i have n't formally introduced myself . my name is ric lansing . anna : i know who you are . mainly by reputation . you 're -- you 're mr. corinthos ' brother , are n't you ? ric : yes . yes , i am . anna : yeah . and when i found out that you were coming down here to talk with mr. jerome , i pulled your file . quite an extensive history on both sides of the law . very creative methods were employed to keep you out of pentonville . it made me kind of curious as to what kind of favors were pulled in , you know , on your behalf . there must have been some significant leverage applied to get you a spot as da . ric : well , i served with distinction . anna : yeah . but your tenure was characterized with blatant corruption . is n't that part of the reason that you were packed off to a private practice in la ? ric : no , that 's not quite how it happened . i am a defense attorney , yes . mr. jerome 's defense attorney , to be exact . i demand that you either charge or release my client . anna : i do n't think so . i 've only had mr. jerome here for 24 hours . legally , i can keep him here for 48 . he 's a person of interest , you see . he was found standing over aj quartermaine 's body , holding the gun that shot him . is n't that right , mr. jerome ? [ scene_break ] aj : [ coughing ] michael : dad , dad , take it easy . can you get this thing out of his mouth ? monica : no , no , no , no . try not to fight it , aj . we have to wait for the icu unit . michael : h - he 's awake . monica : he woke up agitated . he 's been trying to speak . doctor : i need you to relax for me , aj . kiki : he 's talking , michael ? michael : yeah , he seems to recognize us . we ca n't really understand him , because of the tube in his mouth , but he seems like himself . kiki : that 's so great . that 's so great . michael : i just hope he can tell us who did this to him . [ scene_break ] sonny : aj got what was coming to him ? you really mean that ? olivia : i do . i do . and i know that that sounds terrible . and you know that i would never actively wish harm on any person . but i just -- i do n't have it in my heart to feel sorry for aj quartermaine . because you know what ? connie was unarmed . she was defenseless . and he left her to bleed out on this office floor . and then he walked out of here , fell through the cracks of the system , and got off scot free . sonny : i 'm not arguing with you . you know how i feel about aj . olivia : i 'm glad it was julian jerome that did it . i 'm glad he got caught . that guy has been putting you and morgan and everybody i love in danger for months now . sonny : you know what ? he 's a serious threat , julian . olivia : anna catching him red - handed . man , you want to talk about killing two birds with one stone . [ scene_break ] julian : i told you , commissioner , i picked up the gun for my own protection after i found aj shot and lying on the floor . ric : there . simple enough . you have as much evidence to corroborate my client 's story as you do to refute it . you have no reason to hold him here . anna : no reason other than his past criminal acts , many of which i 'm personally familiar with . ric : ah . oh , so this is a personal grudge against mr. jerome . i must say , if that 's the case , then i will have to bring a rather large lawsuit against the county , the city , and you , as well , miss devane . you know , from what i hear from the short time that i 've been back , mayor lomax is just looking for a reason to kick you to the curb . you know what ? i 'm happy to give her one . so here 's the deal , commissioner . you release my client immediately , or you lose your job and every penny that you have . anna : why go to so much trouble , mr. lansing ? all you have to do is ask your client to give us the name of the person he was with when the crime was committed . [ scene_break ] brad : [ sighs ] lucas : sorry for the meltdown . brad : no , no . it 's fine . lucas : [ chuckles ] okay , it 's not like i have a big emotional investment in julian . i just met him . i mostly did n't like him . and now i wo n't need to get to know him any better . brad : what if he 's innocent ? lucas : seriously ? we 're talking about julian jerome , mob kingpin here . brad : yeah , but like i said , the story he told the cops -- i mean , it 's so ludicrous that it almost has to be true . i mean , would n't any self - respecting gangster call in a couple of henchmen to get rid of the body ? or at least have the presence of mind to wipe his prints from the gun . lucas : maybe he did n't have time . brad : or maybe , as awful as he is , julian jerome did n't commit this particular crime . and if it turns out that he 's innocent ... all right , maybe `` innocent 's `` too strong a word . let 's try ... lucas : yeah . brad : ... not culpable . are you willing to give him a chance ? lucas : [ sighs ] i do n't know . would you want to get to know your gangster father if you had the chance ? brad : lucky for me , i 'll never have to decide . lucas : maybe i wo n't either . if julian 's found guilty , i can cut ties and walk away . brad : but is that what you want ? lucas : i do n't know what i want . i do n't know what the hell i want to do about anything right now , especially julian . i do n't even know how i ... [ exhales sharply ] ah , man . just forget it . can we talk about something else ? what have you been doing ? i have n't really seen you since valentine 's day . ah , have you been holing up with your boyfriend ? brad : not exactly . things are ... kind of over between felix and me . lucas : oh . i 'm sorry . what happened ? brad : you .

[ sighs ] we 've been friends for over a year , and never in that time did you feel the need to mention him ? carly : i definitely mentioned that i have a brother . felix : nor that he 's gay ! even while i was suffering through bad date after bad date , looking for mr . right . carly : are you serious right now ? lucas lives in seattle . why would i assume that you guys are a match made in heaven ? because he 's gay ? felix : [ sighs ] you 're right . you 're right . look , i 'm -- i 'm just ranting . do n't even listen to me . carly : no , i understand . you 're disappointed . i ca n't believe it 's my brother that came between you and brad . felix : well , look , for the record , lucas did n't know that brad and i were about to start something . it 's not his fault . carly : i 'm sorry . i am . but , you know , you said that brad did n't think you guys were exclusive . and i 'm not taking his side . but maybe now that he knows , well , he wo n't make the same mistake twice . felix : you think ? carly : well , yeah . i do n't know . but if you have the chance to salvage something good , you should at least talk to him about it . [ scene_break ] lucas : brad , i 'm really sorry . if i had known felix was gon na see those messages , i would not have sent them . brad : you should n't have been sending them at all . i told you i wanted to see where things were gon na go with felix . lucas : i know . i know . you 're right . you 're absolutely right . i 'm sorry . brad : [ sighs ] it 's -- it 's okay . what 's done is done , right ? i mean , it 's my fault , anyway . you did n't know anything about felix when we first hooked up . i 'm the one who ruined things . lucas : so , are you and felix ... done ? brad : sure looks that way . lucas : then what 's stopping us from seeing where this is going ? [ scene_break ] tj : wow . you have a really strong opinion about molly 's dad . what 's that all about ? sonny : i think i know who 's bankrolling julian jerome . shawn : you do ? who ? sonny : my brother . shawn : look , tj , you 're just gon na have to trust me on this one , man . tj : what 's going on ?

[ scene_break ] anna : you must agree that your client could save us a lot of time and trouble if he would just give us the name of his alibi . ric : there 's no reason to reveal his identity . anna : why ? 'cause the less said about this person , the less likely that they exist . ric : i think that we should get back to the lawsuit that i 'm gon na file on behalf of my client . anna : you 're living up to your unsavory reputation , are n't you ? i ca n't imagine that these intimidating tactics worked with mac scorpio when you were last here . and quite frankly , i find it very offensive that you think they 're going to work with me . as for the mayor , i 'll take my chances . i have the law and the facts on my side in this instance , and until i find any evidence clearing your client , he 's gon na spend the next day behind bars . officer : commissioner -- anna : and a lot longer if i have my way . yes ? officer : you 're needed in your office . anna : oh . okay . i have to go . i have something to attend to . ric : we 're not through with this . anna : yes , we 're through . julian : so ... you 're the man with the plan . what do we do now ? [ scene_break ] olivia : [ sighs ] i know that the best thing that i can do right now is just accept this for what it is and move on , stop thinking about it , but there 's just ... there 's something that keeps bothering me . i mean , why would julian want to kill aj ? sonny : i thought i told you that , you know , aj was looking for a job with the jeromes . olivia : right . right , you said that . you said that . but would n't that make you an asset ? huh ? why would n't , uh , julian want to use you against him ? why would he want him dead ? sonny : you got me . olivia : maybe aj would n't take no for an answer . maybe -- maybe when julian turned him down , he just kept pushing it and pushing it , you know , the way he did with connie . and i - i 'm sorry that i 'm taking any satisfaction from this . you know that i love michael like he was my own son , right ? and he 's got to be in a world of pain right now . to think ... michael thought aj was safe because you promised not to hurt him . now someone else comes in and tries to kill him .

[ scene_break ] alexis : i do n't think i need to remind you of all the things that your father has done . i think i 've been very honest with you about the people that he works with and the places . he worked with faith roscoe and the zaccharas . molly : oh , okay , so you mean mobsters . you represent uncle sonny ! and you 've always told me that it 's because you believe so strongly in the bill of rights , that everyone is entitled to a proper defense . is n't that just what dad was doing ? alexis : you are not moving in with your father , period ! the end ! molly : oh , my god ! you suck ! alexis : what ? ! do n't you use that tone with me , young lady ! [ door slams ] alexis : [ sighs ] that went well . [ doorbell rings ] alexis : now what ? ! [ scene_break ] sonny : when aj showed up , crawling back home after years of hiding , i knew michael was the one who 's gon na pay the price . aj latched on to michael . would n't let him go , whining about being his father and needing him and ... aj 's not michael 's father . he 's a drunk who had a one - night stand with carly , and michael was the result . i raised michael . he 's my son . and i hate that he 's going through this right now , that he 's at the hospital , sitting vigil for that son of a bitch . olivia : sonny -- sonny : he should not have to be going through this , and i do n't know -- [ knock on door ] shawn : sonny ? hey , olivia . how you doing ? olivia : shawn . sonny : hey . i did n't know -- i did n't know you were gon na come back tonight . shawn : yeah , i just got some information . um , one of our friends in the know just texted me . julian got himself a new lawyer . sonny : diane will take any case as long as the check clears . shawn : not talking about diane .

[ scene_break ] felix : you 're right . no matter how this shakes down , i should try to talk to brad . carly : yeah . yeah , you really took your time deciding if you should give brad a chance . i do n't think you should just walk away now . felix : you 're right . you 're right . girl , you are always right . carly : always right .

[ scene_break ] carly : i 've got to tell you , you 're absolutely right . they pretty much all taste exactly the same to me . craig : which is why the vodka is almost unimportant . we can get any distiller to supply that . the magic is in the container . the shape of the bottle , the design on the label . we come up with the right combination , all we need is a distributor who has access to premium shelf space and we 're set . carly : and you think that i can come up with that combination ? craig : i think you were born to do it . and i think i was born to sell it . see , we 're a team made in heaven . carly : as long as we can keep things strictly business , craig . do you think you 're capable of doing that ? craig : as irresistible as you are , i think i can handle it . seriously , i provide the start - up money , you handle the creative end , we split the profits 50 - 50 . so , do you think we should expand the line to include flavors ? carly : hey , you know , i read something recently about some guy in italy who came up with chocolate vodka . it 's selling faster than they can make it . craig : so you do know something about this . carly : oh , come on . reading one article in a travel magazine does not an expert make ? craig : it 's a start . try that , see if you like it . carly : that 's nice . it 's sort of sweet and bitter at the same time . craig : kind of like a certain woman i know . here , try that one . uh - huh . oh , that 's hot . carly : oh , that 's hot . it is . craig : yeah . should be . it 's chili pepper . all right . carly : no , no , i think that 's it . craig : no , you want to get a feel for what you 're selling , do n't you ? carly : yeah , i do n't really feel much of anything right now , actually . and if i did n't know any better , i might think that you were trying to seduce me . craig : i would n't need alcohol to do that . carly : you think i 'd be yours for the taking ? well , think again , okay ? 'cause if we 're going to be working together , there 's not going to be any hanky- panky . got it ? craig : well , you 're the one who brought it up . and by the way , the only thing i 'm interested these days is fatherhood and business . carly : right . craig : right . so get your mind out of the gutter . tell me , do we have a deal or do n't we ? carly : deal .

henry and carly try to come up with ways that they can get metro back in the black when craig arrives with ideas . craig thinks that henry 's idea of new drinks – namely the hopetini - is not thinking broadly enough . he thinks carly needs her own label of alcohol . it takes a while , but carly is intrigued . carly and craig have fun taking shots of vodka , as they brainstorm . they finally come up with a name – midnight sun , as carly draws a logo . craig and carly , in their inebriated state , agree to forge a partnership again . craig flirts shamelessly with carly , as they get more drunk , but carly cautions that they will be just friends if they want to get into business together . katie wants to continue to try to have a baby , but brad is too concerned for her health . katie tires to convince him every seductive way she can to reconsider , so brad leaves . brad opens up to henry about katie and her desire to get pregnant despite it being possibly harmful to her . henry thinks he needs to put his foot down and demand they use protection . katie is moping at home ; she decides she will get pregnant no matter the risk when she throws away her birth control pills . she goes looking for brad and convinces him that she does n't want to be intimate to try to get pregnant . brad falls for it when katie implies that she has taken her pill . paul calls barbara for help , as he explains what happened to eliza . barbara agrees to come with money . dusty demands to know from josie where paul is . josie explains that she left paul , who was heading home to meg . dusty does n't believe her and drags her along as he checks out her story at car rental agencies . josie thinks that dusty and paul are alike – they both do whatever they want to get what they want and they do n't worry about who they hurt in the process . barbara comes to nyc with a distraught meg in tow . meg and paul argue , as he assures her that he never meant to hurt her . they are coming up empty with the car agency and paul wants to canvas the neighborhood , but a furious meg wo n't let him out of her sight . paul , meg , barbara , dusty and josie come face to face . after an initial altercation between dusty and paul , barbara wants them to put aside their differences and find eliza . they come up with more dead ends , as dusty finally demands they go to the police . they are headed there when paul sees his rental car . he races to look inside only to find eliza 's car seat empty . meg is devastated and turns to find comfort in dusty 's arms , as a helpless paul and josie watch .

are there so many things in your past that you feel that you need to keep buried ? are you afraid of some demon jumping out at you ? come on . you have always been so fearless . you 'll face any challenge . you will face any danger . come on . why are you so afraid of this ? steve : i 'm not afraid of therapy . i just do n't get how it can do us any good . and i do n't really think we would enjoy it . kayla : [ scoffs ] you do n't enjoy therapy . people do n't enjoy it . in fact , it can be downright painful . we have to figure out why you 're sabotaging yourself , why you 're making bad choices . but ... if your behavior changes , is n't it worth it ? steve : i can see this means a lot to you . let 's go to therapy . kayla : really ? steve : set it up and tell me when and i 'll be there . kayla : um ... okay . marlena said that , um ... you know , maybe there was a cancellation today and we could see her later this afternoon . get started right away . today . john : jade , could you just wait a sec ?

joey : yeah , there 's something you can do . you can tell dr. evans i do n't want to go to therapy anymore ! steve : hey , take it easy , man . joey : it 's just making things worse ! kayla : no , joey , come on . i mean , how many -- how many sessions have you had ? like two ? these things take time . you know , marlena is sure that she can help you or she would n't ask you back . in fact , she thinks that she can help us too . joey : what ? kayla : yeah , we 're gon na -- we 're gon na take your suggestion and we 're gon na go to couples ' therapy . joey : no , you 're not . seriously ?

steve : what ? joey : i mean , sometimes mom starts talking and pretty soon she thinks everyone believes what she 's saying , and ... i do n't know , therapy ? you 're probably gon na hate it worse than i do . sonny : sounds like you 're into this pi thing full - time now , huh ? paul : well , sort of . i mean , dad 's a terrific teacher . he 's always telling me that i 'm doing great , but i 'm just not sure i have what it takes . sonny : why not ? 'cause of the risks ? paul : no . i mean , things can get dangerous sometimes , but i 'm -- i 'm okay with that . it 's -- it 's the other times . you have to do things that wind up hurting people . sonny : and that gets to you ? paul : yeah . on a `` who am i `` kind of level . i mean , dad says that , you know , i 'll work through it , but i feel like in the long run , it 's gon na hurt my relationships with other people . i mean , not that i 'm in any other kind of relationship . sonny : yeah . well , if you 're smart , i would keep it that way . 'cause if you get involved and put yourself out there , i mean , you 're just gon na wind up getting hurt . gabi : [ crying ] i 'm just -- i 'm gon na miss you . a lot . eduardo : i 'm gon na miss you too . you -- you 'll post lots of pictures of ari , right ? gabi : yeah . eduardo : i do n't want to miss a thing that she does , okay ? gabi : i will . eduardo : not a one . gabi : yeah . [ sniffles ] rafe : so that 's how you 're gon na stay in touch with us ? social media ? eduardo : i -- you know , man , i -- it may be dangerous to be in direct contact . you know , i 'm not sure what 's gon na happen i -- i 'll do what i can do . rafe : yeah , okay . i mean , obviously , this is your call . i 'm with gabi though , i ... it feels like you just got back . if there 's anything that i can do to help you find these people or deal with them , you just let me know . eduardo : i will . [ sighs ] you know , whoever is wanting to get even right now is probably somebody that i did something really bad to . adriana : i ca n't do this . eduardo : [ stammers ] adriana : i 'm sorry . gabi : mom -- eduardo : excuse me , excuse me . gabi : what 's wrong with you ? our father is leaving . you might not see him again , and you 're just standing there ? dario : you want me to -- you want me to say something ? okay , i 'm gon na say something . i 'm glad . i am relieved . you were attacked because of what he is . that is what 's going on here . gabi : dario , we 've all made mistakes . he has his past and we have ours . and i have paid for mine . i did time in prison for mine , and guess what ? my family stuck by me . and this ? this is wrong . we need to be doing the same to our dad . dario : let me tell you something . he 's doing the right thing . [ phone rings ] dario : maybe for the first time in his life . i got to take this . gabi : of course you do . go . what is -- why is he saying things like this ? rafe : sis -- come on . you know him . you know dario , right ? he 's selfish , not to mention pig - headed . gabi : no , it just feels like something 's wrong with him . dario : what do you want ? easy , amigo . dario : i told you to get the hell out of salem and never come back . what the hell do you think you 're doing ? steve : where 's this coming from , joe ? your mom said couples ' therapy was your idea . joey : [ scoffs ] yeah , that was before talking to dr. evans started screwing everything up . steve : like what ? joey : like what i got going with jade . i love her , dad . and dr. evans keeps putting all this stuff in my head about like how i should n't be with her . steve : hm . well , listen , i think therapy is just a way of looking for answers . if you find some , great . but no matter what , your mom and i are always here for you . joey : i know . steve : okay ? and it 's your life . if you do n't want some psychiatrist to tell you how to live it , you got to be true to yourself . in the end , it 's up to you . joey : right . thanks . i - i better go find jade . steve : okay . joey : good luck with ... you know . [ cell phone chimes ] steve : [ sighs ] rafe : you just got to try and deal , sis . dario is not the forgiving type . ever since the day dad came back , he 's been -- gabi : he 's been rude , and nasty , and very disrespectful and ungrateful . rafe : well , yeah . but i did n't exactly welcome dad back with open arms either . well , it 's true . i mean , the man was gone for two decades and he walked back into our lives like everything was gon na be fine . gabi : okay , i get that , rafe . but you saw that he was trying to make amends , and you came around , and -- rafe : well , yeah , i did because i can see that the man is sincere . and the reason he 's leaving now is basically out of love , to protect us , to keep us all safe . gabi : yes , i know , i just ... i understand that we have to accept that , but ... i do n't ... just ... dario , the way he 's been acting . rafe : he 's glad . gabi : yeah . he 's just -- i do n't know . he 's been acting so weird and i feel like there 's something going on that we do n't know about . what can i say , man ? i need cash . dario : you 're not gon na get another dime from me , especially after what you did . you went after my sister instead of my brother . are you crazy ? and now , you 're hitting me up for more cash ? i told you to get the hell out of town . i did n't see any point in that right now , dude . not when you made it so clear you did n't want your family to know what you did . i figured , there 's more money for me here in salem . paul : i do n't think i ever thought i 'd hear you say something like that , sonny . look ... i know losing will , that tore you apart . but not all relationships have to end in that kind of pain . i mean , you and will , you guys were happy . you had it all , until i showed up and i - i -- sonny : no , please , do n't -- do n't go there , do n't go there . how many times do we have to talk about this ? it was not your fault . will did n't even know who you were , okay ? paul : okay . sonny : and his is n't about him anyway . paul : all right . sonny : what i 'm trying to say is do n't set yourself up to get hurt . paul : and you think that 's what i 'm doing ? sonny : yeah , if you keep looking to someone to tell you who you are . and that includes family . john 's a great guy , but what he wants is n't necessarily what you want . you need to do what 's right for you . paul : right , yeah . sonny : what ? paul : it 's kind of a new you , sonny . [ laughs softly ] sonny : a new me ? maybe i 've changed a little . i 'm my own man now . i 'm not out to please people all the time . right now , i am focused on knocking down these bogus kidnapping charges against my uncle vic . and then ... paul : what ? sonny : i might join the family business . but i 'll do it on my own terms , nobody else 's . that 's what my uncle vic did and it worked for him . paul : the family business ? wow , that 's , uh ... you definitely have changed . sonny : will 's dead . i 'm alone . so ... everything has changed . gabi : dario , listen , um ... we were thinking that since mom 's hurting , we were gon na go back , and ... dario : there 's something i got to take care of . i -- i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . gabi : did you just see that ? rafe : i saw . adriana : [ clears throat ] gabi : mami , dario just left without even saying good - bye . adriana : what ? gabi : yeah . eduardo : oh , it 's okay . it 's okay . gabi : [ crying ] no . eduardo : he and i , we got issues that go to a whole other -- hey , come on , come on , come on . gabi : [ cries ] eduardo : come on . it 's okay , it 's okay . it 's okay . gon na miss you , kid . i 'm gon na miss you . hey , man , thanks for -- thanks for everything . rafe : yeah . eduardo : you take care of your mother and your sister , all right ? rafe : i will . eduardo : and your brother too , whether he wants it or not . rafe : okay . look , you know , i got to get down to the station . i got to check in , so ... eduardo : hey , uh ... you guys get out of here . come on , come on . just , uh -- you know , it 's gon na be okay . i love you . you both ... gabi : i love you . eduardo : hold onto that . and ... try to find a way to , you know , make the best of this and i 'll -- i 'll get back . rafe : okay . i hope so . eduardo : yeah . gabi : [ crying ] papi . eduardo : oh , sweetie . it 's gon na be okay . it 's gon na be okay . gabi : i love you . eduardo : i love you too . it 's gon na be okay . gabi : okay . okay , bye . eduardo : all right . hard to believe . one more time . i got to -- got to say good- bye one more time . adriana : i ca n't believe this is happening all over again . i 'm gon na lose you a second time -- eduardo : hey , hey , hey , hey . you know , it 's gon na be different this time . it 's gon na be different . i 'm gon na find a way to make it right . i promise . i 'll get back . for good . to the family . to you . we 'll be together . and we 'll be safe . we 'll be safe . [ sighs ] [ speaking spanish ] adriana : [ speaking spanish ] eduardo : [ exhales ] john : hey . kayla : hey . john : so i came by to go over a few things with doc here . we only got a couple minutes for lunch , but it looks like she 's running overtime with another patient . kayla : oh , well , that 'll actually work out well for us because steve 's not here yet . we have decided to go to marriage counseling together , see if we can work things out . john : steve ? wow , that 's , uh ... that 's great . that 's gr -- that is -- that 's great . well , you know , doc 's the best , so good luck with that . kayla : thank you . john : you know , personally , i -- i 'm really missing my buddy over there at black patch , but you know , i totally get why he made the decision to leave . you know , it 's really important for him to prove to you that he has changed . kayla : yeah . assuming he has . john : what was that ? kayla : well , it 's just that he knew that we had this session today , and he has n't called me . he 's late . he has n't returned any of my texts . i ... steve : hey . i can take over . thank you . steve : yeah . damn , i 'm gon na be late for marlena . kayla : why are you so afraid of therapy ? are there so many things in your past that you feel that you need to keep buried ? are you afraid of some demon jumping out at you ? [ phone beeps ] steve : hey , sweetness , uh ... [ clears throat ] something came up at work . i 'm not gon na be able to make the therapy thing . i 'm really sorry . [ phone beeps ] dario : this is the last time . man : you think ? dario : i know . man : really ? i think i 'm always gon na be worth a little walking - around money , if you do n't want your family to know the truth . dario : i 'm not made of money . i wo n't keep doing this . man : sure you will . gabi : yeah , cindy , fine , i 'll be there right now . okay , i 'm on the way . oh , my god . help ! help ! oh , my god , somebody help me ! it 's the guy that ... [ squealing ] man : shut your mouth , bitch ! gabi : [ whimpers ] man : man , i have had it with this stupid family . gabi : [ gasping ] [ dramatic music ] paul : sonny , you 're obviously still grieving . maybe if you saw someone and talked ... sonny : no , no , no , no . i 'm -- i 'm ... i 'm okay . thank you . i 've changed a little bit , okay ? people are gon na have to get used to it . lunch was fun . we should do it again sometime . take care . paul : you too . joey : jade . hey . jade : what ? joey : hey , look , i 'm sorry . i 'm really sorry . what i said , dr. evans , she put all that stuff in my head about how i should n't be with you . and i should n't have listened to her . i love you . and i want to be with you . and i 'm not gon na listen to anyone who says that that 's not right because it is . jade : joey , what if it is n't ? okay , what if i am a bad influence and you are just like your dad ? joey : then i do n't care . i 'm not letting you go . [ sultry music ] robyn : hope this seat 's not taken . i just moved here , on the lookout for new friends . my name 's robyn , by the way . steve : i 'm sorry , darling , but i 'm involved with someone . robyn : yeah . is that why you look so miserable ? kayla : marlena , i , uh ... i think i need to cancel . sorry . no , uh ... there 's no need to reschedule . i do n't think it 'll do any good . i think , um ... i think steve 's no show kind of speaks volumes , you know . i do n't think he really wants to change . which means there 's no hope . i think we 're gon na have to call it quits . come on ... you can do it !
gabi was upset to find out that eduardo wanted to leave salem . gabi wanted eduardo to stay in town , but he could n't because he had to protect his family . kayla wanted to try couples therapy with steve , but he did n't want to do it . steve let kayla know that she was the one who was standing in the way of them being together . kayla was upset because she thought that he was blaming her for why they were n't together anymore . she wanted steve to meet her halfway , but he interrupted her to remind her about what he did for her . steve wanted to know what more he had to do to prove that he changed . joey and jade got into an argument because he said his problems started once he met her . jade got upset so joey tried to clean up what he said , but he only made things worse . kayla wanted to know why steve was afraid of therapy . he did n't want to rehash what he went through as a kid , but he did eventually decide to do therapy with her .
<s>[INST] paul : but a p.i . is supposed to be invisible , blend into a scenery . now , how am i supposed to do that when people walk up and say , `` hey , are n't you paul narita ? `` john : [ scoffs ] yeah , well , but you got to look on the other side also . you see , nobody 's every going to believe that someone that famous is actually trailing a suspect . paul : yeah , right . john : so why do i get the feeling that that 's not your only problem with the job ? [ country music playing ] paul : i was tracking jennifer . john : oh , yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah , yeah . um , for belle 's case . yeah . paul : i recorded her buying pills off the streets , and -- and i followed her to a run - down motel . i called belle and i tipped her off and i 'm sure that it helped with her case , but i felt like scum . i mean , digging into people 's pain like that ... i do n't know if i 'm cut out for this line of work , dad . john : yeah , well ... no doubt about it , it can take its toll . gabi : sorry . guys , i 'm really , really sorry . the sitter got a late start . adriana : it 's okay , cielo . you 're here now . gabi : yeah , well i had to meet up with her in between classes so i do n't have a lot of ... time . what 's going on ? eduardo : uh , gabi , uh , your mother and your brothers are up to speed already . i - i appreciate you guys -- i asked them to let me be the one to tell you . gabi : tell me what ? eduardo : that it 's time , sweetie . i 'm leaving salem .

[ country music playing ] joey : no , i 'm -- i 'm not avoiding you . i just ... i 'm just dealing with some -- some stuff . you know ? jade : could you be a little more vague ? joey : it 's nothing that you need to hear . jade : [ sighs ] god , i hate it when you do that . joey : when i -- when i do what ? what am i doing ? jade : when you act all secretive . like i ca n't handle whatever you have to say or ... you know , it 's even worse whenever you do n't tell me anything that 's going on 'cause then i -- you know , i imagine the worst . and , like , you have a new girlfriend or ... joey : what ? jade : you finally realized that , you know , you 're out of my league . joey : jade , you know that 's not true . jade : which part ? you have a new girlfriend or that you 're out of my league ? joey : neither one is true , jade . jade : tell me something that is true , okay ? like ... we 've been going at turtle speed for weeks , and every time i call you it just sounds like you want to get off the phone , and your text messages are like , two words long . okay , what 's going on ? joey : i know , i just ... i 've been going to therapy lately . i 've been seeing a -- a shrink . jade : why ? joey : because my parents are making me . i hate it . jade : so quit . joey : i want to , but ... jade : but what ? joey : i do n't know , it 's like whenever i go , all this ... all this stuff starts coming up about , like , why i 'm so angry . jade : come on . joey , i 'm ... you know , i - i know everything -- pretty much everything about you and , you know , everything you 've done . and i 'm -- i 'm here right now so you should talk to me . joey : i do n't want to make you mad . jade : why would i get mad ? joey : see ... [ sighs ] the thing is , dr. evans says , a lot of the reason that i 'm so angry and confused is because i 've been hanging out with you so much . kayla : well ? what do you think ? steve : i think that therapy can work for some people . and i 'm really glad it 's helping joe . but it 's not my thing . kayla : it 's not your thing ? steve : what , that 's news to you ? kayla : actually -- actually , it is . steve : [ sighs ] well , it should n't be . you know all the crap i went through when i was a kid . i do n't see the point in dredging all that up again . and i do n't want to sit around and complain about my life to some therapist who probably does n't even give a damn . kayla : what are you talking about ? we 'll -- we 'll be working with marlena . she -- of course she cares about us , come on . steve : still , it 's not for me . kayla : well , if that 's how you feel , i ... steve : no , no , no , come on ... kayla : guess there 's nothing else to talk about . steve : no , no , no , no , listen , wait , wait , wait , wait . sweetness , i 'm sorry . look ... i get that therapy can work for some people , one - on - one , and that 's why i wanted joe to try it . but the idea of the two of us getting advice from marlena about our relationship ... i mean , how much can anyone know about two people when they 're alone together , right ? kayla : it 's not about getting advice . steve : well then , what is it ? we sit there and talk for an hour and marlena stares at us and does n't say anything ? kayla : no , that 's not it at all . it 's about us getting a chance to -- to actually talk , to see what the divisions are in our relationship . wha -- you know , where the impasses are . it -- it 's a chance to ... i do n't know , maybe she could help us find our way . i 'm just saying that maybe if there 's somebody there who is just objective , who could keep us from falling into the same traps that we always fall into when we discuss our relationship . steve : how is marlena gon na help us do that ? kayla : i do n't know ! i 'm not a therapist . i 'm not . i can not predict what 's gon na happen there . steve : okay . kayla : but maybe , maybe it 's worth a try . maybe it 's a way that we can work our way back to each other . steve : i do n't need a therapist to find my way back to you . i 'm already there . kayla : [ sighs ] steve : you 're the one who 's saying we ca n't make it work . gabi : i do n't , uh ... i just -- dad , why , um , why would you feel that you ... eduardo : sweetie -- gabi : hold on , wait , did you guys know about -- you knew about this the whole time and you did n't tell me , mami ? adriana : sweetheart , i was going to tell you -- rafe : eduardo asked us not to say anything . i know mami was hoping he was gon na change his mind . i was just trying to respect his wishes . dario : he 's doing the right thing , gabi . gabi : this is not -- this is not right . eduardo : well -- gabi : okay , dad , listen , will you just -- you ca n't leave . it 's like we just got you back . eduardo : well , i know how it feels , but , like your brother just said , it 's the right thing to do . gabi : what ? you do n't -- you do n't want to see your granddaughter grow up ? eduardo : please do n't go there . gabi : it 's the truth . adriana : i think this is a mistake too . we are family . we need to stay together . eduardo : i did things that i should n't have done . i created debts that are very hard to repay . people start making threats against the family , i -- gabi : okay , that 's fine . a guy tried to mug me . he gets to win ? just because he made some threats ? rafe , come on , just -- please . rafe : it 's eduardo 's decision . eduardo : i ca n't stay . i ca n't . i ca n't pretend that my past does n't exist . and i certainly ca n't let you guys get hurt . what happened to you can never happen again or happen to anyone else in the family . [ stammering ] the best thing to do , the only thing to do ... is to say good - bye . jade : well , i do n't want to be with someone who thinks that he should n't be with me . joey : what are you talking about ? of course , i want to be with you . jade : well , you -- joey : you know i want to be with you . jade : you have a funny way of showing it . okay , why would you believe this woman when she says stuff about me anyway ? joey : i do n't -- i do n't know . it 's not -- it 's not really -- it 's not really about you . it 's about me and -- and what i -- i do n't know -- what i 've been doing since ... jade : since you met me ? joey : i do n't know , it 's just ... you know , spray - painting that guy 's car and skipping out on the court date and ... jade : [ scoffs ] joey : and i do n't know . running away ? and meeting up with that cult ? jade : yeah , do n't forget you almost got killed trying to save me . and that 's my fault too . joey : i 'm not ... jade : did you tell her , uh , about that woman , ava ? 'cause i was n't around when that went down . joey : i know , you 're right . you 're right . see , it -- it 's not all about you . it 's just ... i do n't know , you , you 're so ... jade : evil ? joey : what ? no . you 're exciting . you 're exciting and you 're cool and that 's what i love about you . it 's just that , i do n't know , it -- that might mean that , i do n't know , i -- i 'm turning into my dad . jade : [ scoffs ] kayla : so you 're saying this is all my fault ? it 's just me ? steve : no , i did n't say that . kayla : well , yes , you insinuated that . that i 'm the one that has a problem with our relationship while you 're perfectly willing to work it out , therapy be damned . steve : i did n't say that either . kayla : well , yes you did in some version of it , anyway . that you could work it out and we do n't need to work out our differences or our issues or anything . and if i was n't such a pessimist ... steve : i did n't say that . i did n't -- i did n't accuse you of being a pessimist or anything like that . i love you , baby . kayla : [ scoffs ] steve : look at me . i love you . all i 'm saying is i 'm not the one who has a problem with our relationship . kayla : you do n't have a problem with our relationship ? are you kidding ? come on . the least you could do is meet me halfway . steve : meet you halfway ? kayla : yeah . steve : i think i 've met you more than halfway . i gave up my job . you said i could n't stop looking for danger . well , i stopped , and i quit that life . and now what am i doing ? i 'm tending bar . kayla : so you 've done your bit , is that it ? steve : [ sighs ] sweetness , come on , it -- kayla : it is never gon na work out with us if you 're not willing to do the work . steve : the work ? i gave up my career . i moved into this hotel to give you space so you could figure things out . you -- you 're telling me that does n't count for anything ? what more do i have to do to prove to you that i 'm trying here ? paul : hey , sonny . sonny : hey , what 's going on ? i was just grabbing some takeout . are you guys on lunch break ? john : ooh , actually , i 'm meeting doc on her lunch break . if paul 's sticking around , why do n't you guys catch up ? hmm ? i 'll see you , sonny . sonny : all right , see ya . john : yep . paul : thanks , dad . john : you bet , kid . sonny : what are you thanking him for ? paul : oh , i 've sort of been quizzing him , trying to get a little career advice . sonny : ah . paul : i mean , you know me about as well as he does , so ... maybe you could help . unless you have to leave . sonny : not really . let 's do lunch . jade : joey , that does n't make any sense , okay ? you want to be like your dad because you love your dad . joey : i know , that 's what i used to think . now ... now i 'm starting to think that all this bad stuff 's happening because i 'm trying to be like him . jade : [ scoffs ] and what ? you wanted to hook up with me because i 'm like your mother ? joey : no . no , not at -- you 're more like ava . jade : oh , my god . joey : no , i did n't mean it like that . i 'm not trying to -- i do n't want to keep hurting your feelings , okay ? i just -- i do n't really know what i 'm saying right now . and i should just stop talking . jade : wow . after all the stuff you said about how i meant so much to you and how you love me . and now you 're saying ... god , i do n't know what you 're saying , joey . and now it just -- it looks like we 're not gon na be together anymore . kayla : why are you so afraid of therapy ? are there so many things in your past that you feel that you need to keep buried ? are you afraid of some demon jumping out at you ? come on . you have always been so fearless . you 'll face any challenge . you will face any danger . come on . why are you so afraid of this ? steve : i 'm not afraid of therapy . i just do n't get how it can do us any good . and i do n't really think we would enjoy it . kayla : [ scoffs ] you do n't enjoy therapy . people do n't enjoy it . in fact , it can be downright painful . we have to figure out why you 're sabotaging yourself , why you 're making bad choices . but ... if your behavior changes , is n't it worth it ? steve : i can see this means a lot to you . let 's go to therapy . kayla : really ? steve : set it up and tell me when and i 'll be there . kayla : um ... okay . marlena said that , um ... you know , maybe there was a cancellation today and we could see her later this afternoon . get started right away . today . john : jade , could you just wait a sec ? i want to talk . jade : what do you want to say , joey ? joey : i do n't know . i do n't know , i just -- i want to be clear about things . jade : just stop , okay ? you are clear . go to hell ! joey : jade ! kayla : joey ? joey : what ? steve : what 's going on , son ? joey : jade and i got in a fight , that 's what 's going on . she left . steve : pretty intense . kayla : uh , is there something that we can do to help ? joey : yeah , there 's something you can do . you can tell dr. evans i do n't want to go to therapy anymore ! steve : hey , take it easy , man . joey : it 's just making things worse ! kayla : no , joey , come on . i mean , how many -- how many sessions have you had ? like two ? these things take time . you know , marlena is sure that she can help you or she would n't ask you back . in fact , she thinks that she can help us too . joey : what ? kayla : yeah , we 're gon na -- we 're gon na take your suggestion and we 're gon na go to couples ' therapy . joey : no , you 're not . seriously ? steve : yeah , seriously . i 'm trying to get our family back together , joe . i 'm willing to try anything . kayla : and if we can do that , joey , so can you . these things just take time . please ? joey : yeah , okay , fine . whatever . kayla : thank you . just hang in there , all right ? i got to get to the hospital . i 'll see you later . steve : right . kayla : okay . joey : dad , are you sure about this ? steve : what ? joey : i mean , sometimes mom starts talking and pretty soon she thinks everyone believes what she 's saying , and ... i do n't know , therapy ? you 're probably gon na hate it worse than i do . sonny : sounds like you 're into this pi thing full - time now , huh ? paul : well , sort of . i mean , dad 's a terrific teacher . he 's always telling me that i 'm doing great , but i 'm just not sure i have what it takes . sonny : why not ? 'cause of the risks ? paul : no . i mean , things can get dangerous sometimes , but i 'm -- i 'm okay with that . it 's -- it 's the other times . you have to do things that wind up hurting people . sonny : and that gets to you ? paul : yeah . on a `` who am i `` kind of level . i mean , dad says that , you know , i 'll work through it , but i feel like in the long run , it 's gon na hurt my relationships with other people . i mean , not that i 'm in any other kind of relationship . sonny : yeah . well , if you 're smart , i would keep it that way . 'cause if you get involved and put yourself out there , i mean , you 're just gon na wind up getting hurt . gabi : [ crying ] i 'm just -- i 'm gon na miss you . a lot . eduardo : i 'm gon na miss you too . you -- you 'll post lots of pictures of ari , right ? gabi : yeah . eduardo : i do n't want to miss a thing that she does , okay ? gabi : i will . eduardo : not a one . gabi : yeah . [ sniffles ] rafe : so that 's how you 're gon na stay in touch with us ? social media ? eduardo : i -- you know , man , i -- it may be dangerous to be in direct contact . you know , i 'm not sure what 's gon na happen i -- i 'll do what i can do . rafe : yeah , okay . i mean , obviously , this is your call . i 'm with gabi though , i ... it feels like you just got back . if there 's anything that i can do to help you find these people or deal with them , you just let me know . eduardo : i will . [ sighs ] you know , whoever is wanting to get even right now is probably somebody that i did something really bad to . adriana : i ca n't do this . eduardo : [ stammers ] adriana : i 'm sorry . gabi : mom -- eduardo : excuse me , excuse me . gabi : what 's wrong with you ? our father is leaving . you might not see him again , and you 're just standing there ? dario : you want me to -- you want me to say something ? okay , i 'm gon na say something . i 'm glad . i am relieved . you were attacked because of what he is . that is what 's going on here . gabi : dario , we 've all made mistakes . he has his past and we have ours . and i have paid for mine . i did time in prison for mine , and guess what ? my family stuck by me . and this ? this is wrong . we need to be doing the same to our dad . dario : let me tell you something . he 's doing the right thing . [ phone rings ] dario : maybe for the first time in his life . i got to take this . gabi : of course you do . go . what is -- why is he saying things like this ? rafe : sis -- come on . you know him . you know dario , right ? he 's selfish , not to mention pig - headed . gabi : no , it just feels like something 's wrong with him . dario : what do you want ? easy , amigo . dario : i told you to get the hell out of salem and never come back . what the hell do you think you 're doing ? steve : where 's this coming from , joe ? your mom said couples ' therapy was your idea . joey : [ scoffs ] yeah , that was before talking to dr. evans started screwing everything up . steve : like what ? joey : like what i got going with jade . i love her , dad . and dr. evans keeps putting all this stuff in my head about like how i should n't be with her . steve : hm . well , listen , i think therapy is just a way of looking for answers . if you find some , great . but no matter what , your mom and i are always here for you . joey : i know . steve : okay ? and it 's your life . if you do n't want some psychiatrist to tell you how to live it , you got to be true to yourself . in the end , it 's up to you . joey : right . thanks . i - i better go find jade . steve : okay . joey : good luck with ... you know . [ cell phone chimes ] steve : [ sighs ] rafe : you just got to try and deal , sis . dario is not the forgiving type . ever since the day dad came back , he 's been -- gabi : he 's been rude , and nasty , and very disrespectful and ungrateful . rafe : well , yeah . but i did n't exactly welcome dad back with open arms either . well , it 's true . i mean , the man was gone for two decades and he walked back into our lives like everything was gon na be fine . gabi : okay , i get that , rafe . but you saw that he was trying to make amends , and you came around , and -- rafe : well , yeah , i did because i can see that the man is sincere . and the reason he 's leaving now is basically out of love , to protect us , to keep us all safe . gabi : yes , i know , i just ... i understand that we have to accept that , but ... i do n't ... just ... dario , the way he 's been acting . rafe : he 's glad . gabi : yeah . he 's just -- i do n't know . he 's been acting so weird and i feel like there 's something going on that we do n't know about . what can i say , man ? i need cash . dario : you 're not gon na get another dime from me , especially after what you did . you went after my sister instead of my brother . are you crazy ? and now , you 're hitting me up for more cash ? i told you to get the hell out of town . i did n't see any point in that right now , dude . not when you made it so clear you did n't want your family to know what you did . i figured , there 's more money for me here in salem . paul : i do n't think i ever thought i 'd hear you say something like that , sonny . look ... i know losing will , that tore you apart . but not all relationships have to end in that kind of pain . i mean , you and will , you guys were happy . you had it all , until i showed up and i - i -- sonny : no , please , do n't -- do n't go there , do n't go there . how many times do we have to talk about this ? it was not your fault . will did n't even know who you were , okay ? paul : okay . sonny : and his is n't about him anyway . paul : all right . sonny : what i 'm trying to say is do n't set yourself up to get hurt . paul : and you think that 's what i 'm doing ? sonny : yeah , if you keep looking to someone to tell you who you are . and that includes family . john 's a great guy , but what he wants is n't necessarily what you want . you need to do what 's right for you . paul : right , yeah . sonny : what ? paul : it 's kind of a new you , sonny . [ laughs softly ] sonny : a new me ? maybe i 've changed a little . i 'm my own man now . i 'm not out to please people all the time . right now , i am focused on knocking down these bogus kidnapping charges against my uncle vic . and then ... paul : what ? sonny : i might join the family business . but i 'll do it on my own terms , nobody else 's . that 's what my uncle vic did and it worked for him . paul : the family business ? wow , that 's , uh ... you definitely have changed . sonny : will 's dead . i 'm alone . so ... everything has changed . gabi : dario , listen , um ... we were thinking that since mom 's hurting , we were gon na go back , and ... dario : there 's something i got to take care of . i -- i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . gabi : did you just see that ? rafe : i saw . adriana : [ clears throat ] gabi : mami , dario just left without even saying good - bye . adriana : what ? gabi : yeah . eduardo : oh , it 's okay . it 's okay . gabi : [ crying ] no . eduardo : he and i , we got issues that go to a whole other -- hey , come on , come on , come on . gabi : [ cries ] eduardo : come on . it 's okay , it 's okay . it 's okay . gon na miss you , kid . i 'm gon na miss you . hey , man , thanks for -- thanks for everything . rafe : yeah . eduardo : you take care of your mother and your sister , all right ? rafe : i will . eduardo : and your brother too , whether he wants it or not . rafe : okay . look , you know , i got to get down to the station . i got to check in , so ... eduardo : hey , uh ... you guys get out of here . come on , come on . just , uh -- you know , it 's gon na be okay . i love you . you both ... gabi : i love you . eduardo : hold onto that . and ... try to find a way to , you know , make the best of this and i 'll -- i 'll get back . rafe : okay . i hope so . eduardo : yeah . gabi : [ crying ] papi . eduardo : oh , sweetie . it 's gon na be okay . it 's gon na be okay . gabi : i love you . eduardo : i love you too . it 's gon na be okay . gabi : okay . okay , bye . eduardo : all right . hard to believe . one more time . i got to -- got to say good- bye one more time . adriana : i ca n't believe this is happening all over again . i 'm gon na lose you a second time -- eduardo : hey , hey , hey , hey . you know , it 's gon na be different this time . it 's gon na be different . i 'm gon na find a way to make it right . i promise . i 'll get back . for good . to the family . to you . we 'll be together . and we 'll be safe . we 'll be safe .

elizabeth : you seem a lot happier . sabrina : i am . elizabeth : any particular reason ? sabrina : dr. drake did n't end up spending the night with dr. westbourne after all . so there 's still hope for me . elizabeth : sabrina . sabrina : oh , you know , you 're right . what am i saying ? a gorgeous , brilliant doctor like him would never choose a girl like me , but -- elizabeth : sabrina . sabrina : dr. drake . i was just -- patrick : yeah , saying that there 's a brilliant , gorgeous doctor that would never choose someone like you . sabrina : you heard me . patrick : yeah . well , come on . do n't keep me in suspense . who is it ? sabrina : what ? patrick : who is this god among men roaming the halls of general hospital ? olivia : i was looking right at duke lavery and , like , i saw a completely different person . steve : you mean like one of your hallucinations ? olivia : it must have been . i 'll tell you what . this duke guy has got to thought i lost my marbles . steve : well , you did n't know him that well . it ca n't be that surprising you did n't recognize him . olivia : it was n't like i saw duke but with red hair and a mustache . i looked at him and i saw someone with a completely different face . steve : whose ? olivia : [ sighs ] robert : you know , i think luke 's right . there something off about this guy . lavery 's hiding something . lulu : like his real face . robert : you want to explain that ? lulu : [ chuckles ] um -- my mother - in - law -- it 's complicated , but she has these -- psychic flashes , like premonitions . robert : little clarification is needed here . lulu : uh -- when she saw duke today , she had a strange reaction . and she covered it , but when he left , she told me that she saw duke with a completely different face .

's staying in lockup , where he belongs . monica : always taking pleasure in the misfortunes of others . tracy : misfortunes ? you would be rotting right next to him , on well - deserved assault charges . monica : oh , no . the one who deserves to be assaulted , tracy , is you . tracy : as i was saying , you would still be in jail if you had n't threatened to evict me . but extortion and blackmail is n't gon na work where your precious son is involved . [ door opens , closes ] tracy : no judge in the land is going to grant him bail . a.j . : guess again , aunt tracy . robert : how accurate are these visions of hers ? because if she 's telling you that she saw lavery but he did n't look like lavery , then i can actually go along with that . faison : [ as duke ] anna ? i was n't expecting you so soon . anna : yeah . i know . um -- shall i come back later ? lulu : olivia -- was injected with a massive overdose of lsd . robert : so she 's not exactly reliable . lulu : actually , she is . steve : whose face did duke lavery have ? was it someone you recognized ? olivia : i - i do n't know . but i 'll tell you what . if i ever see this guy in a dark alley , i 'm gon na run in the opposite direction . steve : he was threatening . olivia : that would be an understatement . this guy , whoever he was , is n't duke lavery . he scared the daylights out of me . faison : i 'll be ready in a minute . my apologies . i 'm not quite decent . anna : y - you do n't -- i 'll wait . you do n't have to be so formal . it 's not like we have n't -- faison : i like to answer the door as a gentleman . just give me a few more minutes to put on my game face , so to speak . patrick : so , who is the lucky guy ? i mean , i know almost everybody in the hospital , so i 'd be happy to make an introduction to you or even warn you -- whatever 's more appropriate . elizabeth : i 'm sure if -- sabrina : i never would have said anything if i knew you were standing there . patrick : but i am standing here . and i want to help . sabrina : it 's really -- patrick : plus , you know what ? i have a vested interest in you , okay ? you 're emma 's favorite babysitter , so she would never ever forgive me if i did n't take care of you . so come on . who is he ? sabrina : okay . okay . the gorgeous doctor -- who would never in a million years go out with me is -- it 's y -- your colleague , dr. webber . spinelli : wait . y -- you -- you made it very clear that our venture into coupledom was null and void and that you did n't look on me as anything more than a -- than a friend . so what -- what precipitated this sudden change in feeling ? maxie : it was n't all that sudden . remember when you came to see me after the pathogen scare and you told me that if you could n't have my love , you refused my like ? spinelli : in retrospect , that ultimatum seems arbitrary . maxie : well , it worked . i started missing you while you were standing right there , and then -- when you left , my mom told me this story about her and my dad and mac , and i realized she was right . spinelli : r - right about you and your mom and mac ? maxie : no , right about my feelings for you and that you are kind of like my mac . spinelli : you equate me to your stepfather ? maxie : no , it 's like a metaphor or a simile or whatever . look , the story does n't -- it does n't matter . my mom helped me realize that you 're not this -- dependable guy who i can just lean on whenever i need him and ignore him whenever i do n't . you mean a lot more to me than that . and once i was able to -- to look at my feelings , i could see them for what they were . spinelli : maxie , your feelings are mercurial on a good day . maxie : i love you . i 'm in love with you . sam : i ca n't believe this . a.j . is alive . michael : yeah . i could n't believe it either . sam : s - so where is he ? is he in hiding ? michael : was . now he 's locked up . sam : he 's been arrested . michael : my mom turned him in . and i 'm not allowed to go to the arraignment today . sam : oh , good , good , good . that 's just as good . i 'm sure it 's a circus down there . probably a ton of press . they would be all over you . michael : nobody thinks he 's gon na make bail . sam : good , michael . i mean , a.j . deserves to be locked up . monica : a.j . ! so good to have you home . a.j . : feeling is mutual . tracy : so , what did you do , bribe a judge ? hope you used your own money . monica : how i made bail , tracy , is no concern of yours . tracy : monica , you already helped him flee the country once . who 's to say you wo n't do it again ? a.j . : well , it 's gon na be a little difficult with this . apparently the judge agrees with you that i 'm a flight risk , so i ca n't leave the house . you happy ? tracy : confined to a luxurious mansion with servants at your beck and call . what will you do ? a.j . : first on the list -- see my grandfather . ooh baby , looks like you need a little help there anna : sorry i 'm early . i should have called , really . faison : do n't apologize . i was very excited about you seeing my place . anna : yeah , it 's really nice . suits you .

lulu : no . she did n't recognize him . she just said he looked different than duke . robert : but she must be able to describe him . how do i contact her ? lulu : uh , you want to question her ? robert : i 've got to know whose face she saw instead of lavery 's . patrick : wait , um , s - steve is the guy you 're talking about ? i 'm sorry , it 's just -- elizabeth : you do n't need to explain . i was surprised , too . patrick : i mean , not that -- he 's a great guy . i mean , he 's a gifted surgeon . he 's very -- you know , he 's handsome . i mean , i ca n't argue with that . sabrina : no , it 's true . my crush is definitely , definitely hot . patrick : yeah . look , under any other circumstance , i know that he would be very interested in you , but you know he -- he 's got a girlfriend . elizabeth : yeah , she knows . we were just talking about it . sabrina : yeah . she 's smart and -- accomplished and beautiful . everything that he wants . which makes it impossible for -- me . but i care about him . i have from the moment i first saw him . and knowing that he 's taken does n't make a difference . no matter what i do , i ca n't help the way i feel . a.j . : well , since everyone knows i 'm out now , i 'd like to say hello to my grandfather . we 've got years to make up for . tracy : absolutely not ! he does n't even know you 're alive . a.j . : well , do n't you think it 's time he found out ? tracy : you were n't supposed to stay in this house . you were n't even supposed to be released on bail . a.j . : tracy , circumstances have changed , and now i would like to say a proper hello to my grandfather . tracy : and give him a heart attack ? a.j . : oh , come on . he 's been complaining about that heart thing for years . it 's his standard manipulation tactic . tracy : he 's an old man with a heart condition . monica , could you back me up on this ? you know that his health is too fragile to withstand this kind of shock . monica : no , i think that finding out his grandson is alive would do edward a world of good . tracy : really ? hmm . and what if you 're wrong ? a.j . : why do n't we talk about the real reason that you do n't want grandfather to see me ? maybe you 're afraid that he 'll take elq away from you and -- i do n't know -- ask me to run it . tracy : [ laughs ] you 're not fit to run a bath , much less elq . my concern is for my father , whose health has been failing for months . but obviously his welfare is no concern of yours . so be my guest . kill your grandfather . michael : i know a.j . was wrong , but not everything that led up to it was his fault . sam : is that what he told you ? michael : he explained his side of the story . sam : yeah . his side . of course . it 's always about his side . he paints himself to be a victim . michael : the whole situation is a lot more complicated than i realized . i mean , my mom , my dad , a.j . -- they were all acting badly . they all crossed lines , and they did damage . sam : sonny and carly are far from perfect , but it 's nothing compared to what a.j . has done . michael : i do n't want my dad to go to prison . spinelli : why did you wait until now to tell me ? maxie : i have been trying to tell you i love you for weeks . i - i even worked up courage the night of the bachelor party . i came to see you . and i walked in , you were there with ellie . you were making a date . spinelli : i do remember your behavior was puzzling , even for you . maxie : so i thought i would have an opportunity the next day at sonny 's wedding , and then you arrived . you were with ellie . i realized that was the date you were making . spinelli : okay , well , why did n't you pull me aside , find a quiet corner ? maxie : there were no quiet corners at that wedding . spinelli : valid point . it was chaotic . but there was n't -- maxie : and then ellie just turned out to be so -- so nice . you know , i thought you were dating her because she was free at the time and i was still with matt , but -- now that 's settled . spinelli : `` settled `` ? maxie : well , matt and i are over -- emotionally and legally . i divorced him for you . spinelli : well , you should n't have done that . maxie : that 's not saying much of anything . spinelli , come on . what are you thinking ? patrick : we -- we ca n't help the way we feel about people . i mean , robin 's gone . it does n't stop me from loving her . elizabeth : and i lost someone that i cared about . it does n't mean that i - i do n't miss him . sabrina : [ sighs ] i apologize for being so self - absorbed . all i 've got is a stupid crush . it 's nothing compared to what you 're going through , dr. drake -- patrick : that 's not what i meant by that . elizabeth : it 's fine . sabrina : would you both do me a favor ? i would feel so much better if we just dropped the whole subject . lulu : olivia , i am so glad that we bumped into you . olivia : `` we `` ? lulu : this is robert scorpio , mac 's brother , emma 's grandfather . olivia : i 'm honored to meet the legend . robert : well , my pleasure . lulu : and i 'm not sure if you know dr. steve webber . steve : your reputation precedes you . robert : well , now that i 'm suitably embarrassed -- uh , olivia , i need your help . lulu : um , i hope you do n't mind i told him what happened with duke this morning . olivia : you mean that i looked at him and i saw a completely different person standing there ? robert : i need you to tell me about that person you saw . olivia : honestly , it was so random , i ca n't imagine it 's gon na be any help . robert : anything that you can remember -- any slight detail -- might help me uncover what lavery 's hiding . faison : i had no idea you were still in contact with robert . anna : yeah . well , i had n't seen him since before robin died . faison : so why did he choose now to come into your life ? anna : it 's luke , is n't it ? he 's , um , informed him that i 'm in danger . faison : from me ? anna : apparently . i do n't know who i 'm more angry at , really . luke , i think , probably . because he 's been suspicious ever since you returned . i wish -- i can understand . but this constant badgering , it just -- it 's wearing thin . and now robert 's told me that -- luke has gone to turkey . faison : oh , luke has gone to turkey to see whether my story of incarceration is fact or fiction . okay . so what did he discover ? anna : that it checks out . faison : [ chuckles ] anna : not one single discrepancy . which , for a normal person , would be a signal to just move on . but , no , luke has now managed to convince robert that this is a carefully constructed lie . faison : that 's a bit extreme , is n't it ? anna : it 's played right into robert 's paranoia . you know ? he 's been a spy his whole life . he 's looked for conspiracies around every corner . so now he 's here in port charles -- to save me -- from you . or myself . i 'm not really sure which . robert : lulu tells me you did n't recognize this guy who turned up in lavery 's place . olivia : i have never seen this man before in my life . robert : can you describe him , tell me maybe about scars , tattoos , anything about his face at all ? olivia : um , aside from the fact that he totally creeped me out -- he was smoking . anna : you know , i really like to think of myself as a patient person , but robert just -- god , he works my last nerve . especially when he does this whole macho - protector thing . faison : oh , perhaps robert 's just jealous . i do n't think he ever got over losing you to me . anna : he 's not jealous . he 's insufferable . they both are , for that matter . honestly -- all the pair of them have managed to do is persuade me -- to move out of luke 's suite . faison : and come straight here to me . michael : sam , you do n't know what prison 's like , okay , and i 'm not just talking about me -- getting raped . okay , i 'm talking about all of it . you 're always on guard . you never feel safe . i mean , the air is stale . it stinks in there . i mean , you feel like you 're in this long , gray tunnel , and you never know when you 're gon na see the light of day again . i do n't care what a.j . did to deserve it . i just do n't want to see my father in prison . sam : of course i can understand that . michael : yeah , well , my mom and my dad do n't . they hate a.j . , and he hates them just as much . and hearing them screaming accusations , still fighting over me after all these years , it just makes me sick . sam : i 'm sorry , michael . michael : most of all , i just want to get away from it , you know . sam : a.j . 's not your responsibility . i do n't think you have to worry about that . michael : i know he 's not my responsibility , but he 's still my father . you know , even though my mom wishes that he was n't . sam : you know what ? i -- i never knew my father either , and if he walked through that door right now , i would ... i would want to get to know him , no matter what anyone else -- michael : yeah , so you understand . sam : yes , but it does n't mean that you should forget who a.j . really is or that your parents , they love you . and if jason were here , he would be telling you -- michael : yeah , well , jason is n't here ! tracy : what are you waiting for , a.j . ? go up and see your grandfather . you 've always been a disaster , so for your grand finale , you can shock him into the grave . a.j . : i do n't want to hurt my grandfather . tracy : since when ? ! a.j . : since always , tracy . you know , what 's wrong with you ? no matter what you think , i love that man . and i 've thought a lot about him while i 've been gone . if you honestly believe him seeing me is gon na hurt him , then i can wait . tracy : what 's your angle ? a.j . : this may actually shock you , but i do n't have one . tracy : you can back off the phony nobility . nobody 's buying it . your doting mother is n't buying it . monica : who has complete faith in her son . tracy : wow . then you deserve what you get . you 'll both have to excuse me . i 'm going to check on my father . monica : [ sighs ] a.j . : mom , is , uh -- is grandfather really that , you know , fragile ? monica : well , he has his good days and his bad days . but i think if we prepare him , he 'll have no problem seeing you . and i want to thank you for taking the high road with tracy . a.j . : i want to thank you for believing in me . and for getting me the hell out of lockup . thank you . monica : you 're my son , a.j . i 'm not gon na leave you there . a.j . : how did you manage to wrangle my bail ? monica : unh - unh . it 's not important . a.j . : no . yes , it is important . monica : no . a.j . : the size of that bond -- it 's not exactly an amount you find underneath a pillow on a couch . monica : yeah , well , you 're right about that . i did not have a lot of options . so i was forced to put the house up as collateral . olivia : he was holding one of those little things in his hand -- a skinny little brown thing , like a cross between a cigar and a cigarette , you know . robert : cigarillo ? olivia : yes ! yeah , like -- like my uncle louie used to smoke in bensonhurst . lulu : did duke smoke ? robert : not when i knew him . what else can you tell me about this guy ? olivia : um , looked a little bit like that guy from `` silence of the lambs . `` robert : hannibal lecter ? olivia : yeah , but the face was kind of skinnier , and the nose was different , and the eyebrows were real bushy . lulu : look , you remember more than you thought . olivia : yeah , but how is this gon na help anybody ? steve : maybe there 's a way to get a picture of the guy . patrick : you know , you do n't need to feel bad , all right ? i was the one that was asking about something that i overheard . elizabeth : yeah . seriously , you have some deficiencies in your eavesdropping skills . patrick : okay . listen , i apologize , all right ? do you accept my apology ? sabrina : of course . patrick : okay . i got to get back to a patient . i will see you guys later . elizabeth : see you . sabrina : bye . oh , my god . elizabeth : three , two , one , and he 's gone . gone . sabrina : oh , my god . that was a total nightmare . like , literally , i kept waiting to wake up , because i could n't believe that even i could make such a fool of myself . elizabeth : relax . it 's fine , okay ? sabrina : are you kidding me ? i was a complete idiot . elizabeth : patrick put you on the spot . there was nothing you could do . sabrina : oh , god . except say that i was in love with steve ? elizabeth : he was the first guy you saw , was n't he ? sabrina : you 're not gon na tell him anything , are you ? steve : elizabeth . elizabeth : yeah ? steve : can i talk to you for a second ? elizabeth : sure . steve : in private ? elizabeth : yeah . do n't worry . your fake crush is safe with me . steve : thanks . we could really use your help . elizabeth : `` we `` ? what are you talking about ? steve : robert scorpio is here . elizabeth : that 's weird . patrick did n't say anything . steve : i 'm not sure he knows . but , uh , robert 's gon na try to decipher one of olivia 's visions , and i think you might be able to help him uncover something about duke lavery . anna : should i take one of these ? faison : oh , you know , i was n't sure what to get , so i had them send over a little bit of everything , hoping that maybe when i saw it , i 'd know what to do with it . anna : well , do n't look at me . my skills in the kitchen have n't improved . faison : well , i could use your company . anna : it 's about all i 'm good for . faison : [ chuckles ] anna : remember robin -- she used to like to be your sous - chef . faison : yeah , i remember it like it was yesterday . anna : yeah . she was so proud that one time you guys made a pizza . faison : [ chuckles ] one of my fondest memories . i loved that little girl . anna : she loved you , too . you were really good to her . sam : you 're right . jason 's not here . michael : sam , i 'm sorry , okay . i did n't mean it like that . i just -- i just wish i could talk to jason . you know , he could understand me no matter what i was going through . sam : yeah , he was pretty great that way . michael : i just miss him . sam : me too . i do , too . michael , i 'm gon na find him , and i 'm gon na bring him home . michael : sam , do you think that , uh -- you think that jason 's alive ? sam : yes . of course . i know in my heart that jason 's still alive . michael : yeah , you 're right . you 're right . i mean , he 's strong . he 'll figure something out . sam : yeah . he 's not gon na have to do it alone , either , michael . i 'm gon na rescue him , and when i do , i 'm gon na make whoever shot him pay . faison : well , dinner wo n't make itself . anna : no . okay . so , which way is the kitchen , that way ? faison : yes . that way . anna : all right , i 'll find it . faison : [ sighs ] maxie : spinelli , please say something . spinelli : i - i 'm trying to -- formulate my recollection . um -- i do remember you telling me that you were free . maxie : and you did n't say one word . spinelli : it was a rather precipitous announcement , considering it did come in the middle of the floating rib , when i was on a date with ellie . maxie : you 're always on a date with ellie . halloween , my birthday -- i thought i was gon na be able to celebrate that with you . and i wound up being the third wheel . i was lucky i got one measly dance with you . spinelli : you cut in on a dance with me and ellie . maxie : so i raised the topic of my divorce again , because it was n't embarrassing enough the first time . and again , you have this weird , like , nonreaction . you did manage to tell me that you did n't think matt was the right guy for me . but you just walked off . spinelli : i was distracted by an interesting costume . maxie : that does n't matter now . because right after that -- i saw you looking at me . and i know that you knew i wanted you back . you knew that night , did n't you ? a.j . : mom , dad gave you this house . how could you put it up as collateral ? monica : the bail was very steep , a.j . a.j . : you should n't have done it . monica : oh . look , i had not seen you or talked to you in years . i was not about to let you spend another night in jail , no matter what the cost . a.j . : i do n't even know what to say , except for thank you . and i love you . monica : all i ask of you is you be very , very careful . if you leave this property , the authorities are gon na know just like that , and i will lose the house . you will go right back to jail . a.j . : i wo n't risk your house or my -- tracy : hi . it 's tracy quartermaine . i need to find michael corinthos . i 'm nora . and i 'm nate . spinelli : it does n't matter , but you knew , and yet you still invited ellie to be your roommate . maxie : ellie invited herself . spinelli : yeah , but you agreed , despite my objections . maxie : what was i supposed to say ? `` sorry , ellie , no , you ca n't move in with me . i 'm in love with your boyfriend . `` spinelli : okay , maybe not that blatant , but some variation of the truth would have been helpful . maxie : i just figured when you would come over to see ellie i might have the opportunity to tell you how i feel . spinelli : it did n't occur to you to request a meeting at -- i do n't know -- a park , a restaurant , a quiet nook of a library ? maxie : no , that did not occur to me . and you know what else did n't occur to me ? that you would launch into an epic make - out session with someone else in my apartment , standing right in front of me . did you even notice that i disappeared ? spinelli : i assumed you went out to socialize . maxie : i could n't stand to see you with another woman . spinelli : you were jealous ? maxie : jealous . and completely heartbroken , so i started over to the haunted star and opened vein to dante and lulu . spinelli : you confided in others ? maxie : lulu told me she thought i should be honest with you and tell you how i feel , so i called your cell phone , but you did n't answer . spinelli : i was -- i was otherwise engaged . maxie : no kidding . i was determined to talk to you the next morning , until i saw you walk out of ellie 's room in nothing but your boxers , and that 's when i realized you did n't answer your phone because you two were having sex . spinelli : i apologize if i seemed inconsiderate , but -- i - i had no i -- maxie : sitting here with the two of you , i , um , i realized i had to be honest and just tell you how i feel . and that could have been a mistake . maybe not . but it 's your call . anna : what exactly are we celebrating ? faison : voicemail . [ both chuckle ] anna : thanks . faison : if it had n't been for the message you left me in d.c. , i would n't have known that you missed me . anna : oh . i was n't really angling for dinner . faison : you do n't have to be shy , anna . when i heard your voice and i heard that message , it was as if all those years just melted away . when you said you missed hearing my voice , well , i miss hearing your voice . anna : look , i still have feelings -- faison : we do n't have to answer all the big questions , like are we still married , or do we pick up where we left off ? we 're here together . that 's enough for me . to our future . [ glasses clink ] anna : to us . monica : we should probably give him a call and tell him -- tracy : monica , have you seen daddy today ? monica : not since this morning . why ? tracy : well -- i do n't know . he looks kind of pale . would you mind checking on him and making sure he 's all right ? monica : yeah . i 'll be right back . tracy : thank you . [ telephone rings ] [ beep ] tracy : quartermaine residence . wait . hold on . hold on . slow down . what ? where is he now ? is he all right ? okay . all right . okay . i understand . uh - huh . thanks for calling . a.j . : what 's going on ? tracy : uh -- nothing . it 'll be fine . a.j . : tracy , just tell me what 's going on . tracy : you have to promise not to overreact . a.j . : stop stalling and just spit it out . tracy : it 's about michael . michael : call me back . okay , bye . well , well , well . looks like somebody 's up early from their nap . sam : yeah . my big guy . michael : can i hold him ? sam : yes , yes , yes . of course . here . michael : daniel . sam : go to uncle michael . michael : how 's it going , big guy ? geez , he 's getting so big . you 're so big . you 're so big . sam : oh , i really wish jason was here to see this . michael : yeah . me too . and i 'm gon na tell you all about him when you 're old enough to understand . that 's crazy . sam : what ? michael : well , i do n't want to upset you , but he looks just like jason . sam : well -- sorry . yes , of course . he should . michael , jason is danny 's biological father . michael : h -- the dna test said that franco was the -- sam : i know . i know . we have heather to thank for that . she tampered with it . michael : are you serious ? sam : mm - hmm . i know . there are no words to describe , but -- now i 'm so happy . yes , jason is daniel 's father . michael : he must have been really happy to hear that . sam : well , actually , um -- michael : sam , you okay ? sam : it 's just -- i have n't had a chance to tell jason yet . michael : i 'm sorry . sam : no , it 's okay . because this way , when jason comes home , i 'm gon na have some really great news for him . michael : you hear that , danny ? your mom said your dad 's coming back . and it happened for me , so -- and i was n't expecting it , but -- my father came back . a.j . : what 's wrong with michael ? tracy : i do n't know . a.j . : who -- who was on the phone ? what did they say ? tracy : um , that was sam , and she 's with him . there 's been some kind of accident . they 're at jason 's . a.j . : what ? why the hell did n't she take him to a hospital ? tracy : i have no idea . a.j . : uh -- i have to get to my son . uh -- tracy : what are you doing ? a.j . : does jason still live in the harbor towers ? tracy : he does , but you ca n't go there . you have a monitor on . what are you doing ? ! a.j . : taking this damn thing off right now . tracy : a.j . , you ca n't do that ! a.j . , do n't ! wait ! if you do that -- a.j . : listen to me . screw the monitor , all right ? maxie : my heart is on the table . spinelli : this is -- maxie : the truth . i want to be with you , spinelli . i love you . do you want to be with ellie , or do you want to be with me ? monica : i do n't know what you 're talking about . he 's fine . well , now he 's a little cranky because i just , uh , woke him from his nap . tracy : i 'm not going to apologize for being concerned about my father . you may think that i 'm overprotective , but -- better safe than sorry . monica : where 's a.j . ? sam : i 'm really glad you came over . michael : yeah , me too . sam : i 'm gon na take this little guy upstairs . i think he needs to be changed . michael : all right . i 'll just walk myself out . sam : okay . hey , michael , do me a favor . remember what i said about a.j . just be careful , okay ? michael : yeah , i will . sam : okay . i 'll see you later . michael : all right . bye , daniel . sam : say , `` bye . `` a.j . : [ breathlessly ] michael ! thank god . are you okay ? michael : yeah . i 'm fine . what are you doing here ? what 's going on ? a.j . : tracy . tracy : how would i know where a.j . is ? he 's probably pilfering your jewelry box or trying to figure out the combination to the safe . monica : could we just give the insults a rest just long enough to convey some actual information , tracy , like where is my son ? tracy : well , he has to be around here someplace . it 's , uh , not like he could leave without somebody knowing he jumped bail . steve : hey , sabrina . sabrina : hey . patrick : sabrina . sabrina : [ gasps ] patrick : listen to me . you are a terrific person . you are smart and beautiful , and if he was n't in a relationship , he 'd be an idiot not to go for you . i know it 's probably difficult having feelings for somebody that you see around that does n't return the same feelings , but you 're gon na be okay . sabrina : [ chuckles ] it 's not so bad . patrick : right . i 'm sure it probably feels more than a crush right now , but eventually that 'll fade . and you 'll find someone that 's available and crazy about you and loves you the way you deserve to be loved . olivia : yeah , like , that 's -- that 's it , but the nose -- the nose is like a -- like a little bit broader . elizabeth : okay . olivia : and the hair -- the hair -- oh , the hair is long , is longer . elizabeth : it was ? olivia : yeah , sorry . i was trying to remember the face . i 'm sort of forgetting about the hair . yeah . yeah . elizabeth : so like -- olivia : like that . that 's it . that 's him . that 's it . elizabeth : oh , my god . olivia : what ? elizabeth : it ca n't be . anna : [ sighs ] faison : well -- anna : exactly . faison : [ chuckles ] do you think there 's any chance robert 's going to interrupt us ? anna : no . he 'd better not . faison : so -- there 's no reason that we ca n't be together , then . anna : no , there 's no reason . robert : elizabeth , what 's wrong ? you know this person ? elizabeth : i think you know him , too . robert : faison .
maxie tells spinelli that she is in love with him and wants him back . she tells him that she divorced matt for him . he says she should n't have done that . she tells him that it killed her to see him with ellie . she asks him to choose . patrick overhears sabrina telling elizabeth that a gorgeous , brilliant doctor would never look at a girl like her , so he asks her who the doctor is . she names the first doctor she sees , steve webber . she says she knows he is dating an amazing woman , but that does n't stop her from feeling what she feels . patrick tells her that she is smart and beautiful and that she will find someone who is available and will love her the way that she deserves to be loved . olivia goes to general hospital and tells steve that she saw duke lavery , but he had someone else 's face . robert scorpio tells lulu that he thinks her father is right in thinking duke is hiding something , lulu tells him that her mother in law has a gift of foresight and that she saw duke with a different face . she tells him that she has the premonitions because she was injected with an overdose of lsd , but that they are usually accurate . lulu and robert find olivia at the hospital and ask her to describe the face that she saw . she says she notices that duke was smoking a skinny cigar . steve brings elizabeth into draw what olivia describes . elizabeth and robert recognize faison . faison prepares a romantic evening for anna . he almost answers the door without his duke lavery mask on , thinking it is a delivery , but anna has arrived early . he asks her to wait outside while he puts on his mask . she tells him that robert came to see her and that luke has convinced him that she needs to be saved . anna and `` duke `` kiss and decide that nothing is stopping them from being together .
<s>[INST] elizabeth : you seem a lot happier . sabrina : i am . elizabeth : any particular reason ? sabrina : dr. drake did n't end up spending the night with dr. westbourne after all . so there 's still hope for me . elizabeth : sabrina . sabrina : oh , you know , you 're right . what am i saying ? a gorgeous , brilliant doctor like him would never choose a girl like me , but -- elizabeth : sabrina . sabrina : dr. drake . i was just -- patrick : yeah , saying that there 's a brilliant , gorgeous doctor that would never choose someone like you . sabrina : you heard me . patrick : yeah . well , come on . do n't keep me in suspense . who is it ? sabrina : what ? patrick : who is this god among men roaming the halls of general hospital ? olivia : i was looking right at duke lavery and , like , i saw a completely different person . steve : you mean like one of your hallucinations ? olivia : it must have been . i 'll tell you what . this duke guy has got to thought i lost my marbles . steve : well , you did n't know him that well . it ca n't be that surprising you did n't recognize him . olivia : it was n't like i saw duke but with red hair and a mustache . i looked at him and i saw someone with a completely different face . steve : whose ? olivia : [ sighs ] robert : you know , i think luke 's right . there something off about this guy . lavery 's hiding something . lulu : like his real face . robert : you want to explain that ? lulu : [ chuckles ] um -- my mother - in - law -- it 's complicated , but she has these -- psychic flashes , like premonitions . robert : little clarification is needed here . lulu : uh -- when she saw duke today , she had a strange reaction . and she covered it , but when he left , she told me that she saw duke with a completely different face . [ knock on door ] faison : i do n't care if some delivery boys see my face . anna : duke ? it 's anna . you there ? maxie : i want you . spinelli : you -- you want me ? f - for what , exactly ? is there some traditionally male - oriented activity that you need help with , like to hang a picture or move , like , a bookshelf or kill a spider ? 'cause -- maxie : no , no . spinelli , i do n't need you to kill any spiders or move a bookshelf or hang a picture . i do n't need you to do anything . i want you back . [ knock on door ] michael : hey . sam : hi , michael . well , this is a surprise . michael : i hope it 's okay . sam : yes . of course . always . come in . come in . michael : so , uh , how 's the baby ? sam : oh , danny 's great . he 's actually taking a nap right now . it 's my chance to get a little work done . michael : what , you 're working on a case ? sam : i 'm trying to figure out who shot jason . michael : look , sam , i 'm , uh -- i 'm sorry i have n't been around since everything happened . i 'm just kind of wrapped up in my father 's situation . sam : your father ? is everything okay with sonny ? michael : no , it 's not sonny . i , uh -- it 's actually my biological father , a.j . monica : well , thank you for calling about a.j . , diane . i really appreciate it . tracy : wait . do n't tell me . a.j . 's staying in lockup , where he belongs . monica : always taking pleasure in the misfortunes of others . tracy : misfortunes ? you would be rotting right next to him , on well - deserved assault charges . monica : oh , no . the one who deserves to be assaulted , tracy , is you . tracy : as i was saying , you would still be in jail if you had n't threatened to evict me . but extortion and blackmail is n't gon na work where your precious son is involved . [ door opens , closes ] tracy : no judge in the land is going to grant him bail . a.j . : guess again , aunt tracy . robert : how accurate are these visions of hers ? because if she 's telling you that she saw lavery but he did n't look like lavery , then i can actually go along with that . faison : [ as duke ] anna ? i was n't expecting you so soon . anna : yeah . i know . um -- shall i come back later ? lulu : olivia -- was injected with a massive overdose of lsd . robert : so she 's not exactly reliable . lulu : actually , she is . steve : whose face did duke lavery have ? was it someone you recognized ? olivia : i - i do n't know . but i 'll tell you what . if i ever see this guy in a dark alley , i 'm gon na run in the opposite direction . steve : he was threatening . olivia : that would be an understatement . this guy , whoever he was , is n't duke lavery . he scared the daylights out of me . faison : i 'll be ready in a minute . my apologies . i 'm not quite decent . anna : y - you do n't -- i 'll wait . you do n't have to be so formal . it 's not like we have n't -- faison : i like to answer the door as a gentleman . just give me a few more minutes to put on my game face , so to speak . patrick : so , who is the lucky guy ? i mean , i know almost everybody in the hospital , so i 'd be happy to make an introduction to you or even warn you -- whatever 's more appropriate . elizabeth : i 'm sure if -- sabrina : i never would have said anything if i knew you were standing there . patrick : but i am standing here . and i want to help . sabrina : it 's really -- patrick : plus , you know what ? i have a vested interest in you , okay ? you 're emma 's favorite babysitter , so she would never ever forgive me if i did n't take care of you . so come on . who is he ? sabrina : okay . okay . the gorgeous doctor -- who would never in a million years go out with me is -- it 's y -- your colleague , dr. webber . spinelli : wait . y -- you -- you made it very clear that our venture into coupledom was null and void and that you did n't look on me as anything more than a -- than a friend . so what -- what precipitated this sudden change in feeling ? maxie : it was n't all that sudden . remember when you came to see me after the pathogen scare and you told me that if you could n't have my love , you refused my like ? spinelli : in retrospect , that ultimatum seems arbitrary . maxie : well , it worked . i started missing you while you were standing right there , and then -- when you left , my mom told me this story about her and my dad and mac , and i realized she was right . spinelli : r - right about you and your mom and mac ? maxie : no , right about my feelings for you and that you are kind of like my mac . spinelli : you equate me to your stepfather ? maxie : no , it 's like a metaphor or a simile or whatever . look , the story does n't -- it does n't matter . my mom helped me realize that you 're not this -- dependable guy who i can just lean on whenever i need him and ignore him whenever i do n't . you mean a lot more to me than that . and once i was able to -- to look at my feelings , i could see them for what they were . spinelli : maxie , your feelings are mercurial on a good day . maxie : i love you . i 'm in love with you . sam : i ca n't believe this . a.j . is alive . michael : yeah . i could n't believe it either . sam : s - so where is he ? is he in hiding ? michael : was . now he 's locked up . sam : he 's been arrested . michael : my mom turned him in . and i 'm not allowed to go to the arraignment today . sam : oh , good , good , good . that 's just as good . i 'm sure it 's a circus down there . probably a ton of press . they would be all over you . michael : nobody thinks he 's gon na make bail . sam : good , michael . i mean , a.j . deserves to be locked up . monica : a.j . ! so good to have you home . a.j . : feeling is mutual . tracy : so , what did you do , bribe a judge ? hope you used your own money . monica : how i made bail , tracy , is no concern of yours . tracy : monica , you already helped him flee the country once . who 's to say you wo n't do it again ? a.j . : well , it 's gon na be a little difficult with this . apparently the judge agrees with you that i 'm a flight risk , so i ca n't leave the house . you happy ? tracy : confined to a luxurious mansion with servants at your beck and call . what will you do ? a.j . : first on the list -- see my grandfather . ooh baby , looks like you need a little help there anna : sorry i 'm early . i should have called , really . faison : do n't apologize . i was very excited about you seeing my place . anna : yeah , it 's really nice . suits you . [ sighs ] faison : is something wrong ? anna : yeah , well -- well , we were talking on the phone , you know , and i had to hang up 'cause someone came in . faison : bad news ? anna : ex - husband . faison : i 'm not following . anna : sorry . i do n't mean to be cryptic . even when he has the best intentions , you know , he just puts me on edge . faison : who ? anna : robert . faison : scorpio ? anna : one and only . robert : if she saw lavery and he had another man 's face -- lulu : duke lavery could be someone else . robert : did she know who that face was ? lulu : no . she did n't recognize him . she just said he looked different than duke . robert : but she must be able to describe him . how do i contact her ? lulu : uh , you want to question her ? robert : i 've got to know whose face she saw instead of lavery 's . patrick : wait , um , s - steve is the guy you 're talking about ? i 'm sorry , it 's just -- elizabeth : you do n't need to explain . i was surprised , too . patrick : i mean , not that -- he 's a great guy . i mean , he 's a gifted surgeon . he 's very -- you know , he 's handsome . i mean , i ca n't argue with that . sabrina : no , it 's true . my crush is definitely , definitely hot . patrick : yeah . look , under any other circumstance , i know that he would be very interested in you , but you know he -- he 's got a girlfriend . elizabeth : yeah , she knows . we were just talking about it . sabrina : yeah . she 's smart and -- accomplished and beautiful . everything that he wants . which makes it impossible for -- me . but i care about him . i have from the moment i first saw him . and knowing that he 's taken does n't make a difference . no matter what i do , i ca n't help the way i feel . a.j . : well , since everyone knows i 'm out now , i 'd like to say hello to my grandfather . we 've got years to make up for . tracy : absolutely not ! he does n't even know you 're alive . a.j . : well , do n't you think it 's time he found out ? tracy : you were n't supposed to stay in this house . you were n't even supposed to be released on bail . a.j . : tracy , circumstances have changed , and now i would like to say a proper hello to my grandfather . tracy : and give him a heart attack ? a.j . : oh , come on . he 's been complaining about that heart thing for years . it 's his standard manipulation tactic . tracy : he 's an old man with a heart condition . monica , could you back me up on this ? you know that his health is too fragile to withstand this kind of shock . monica : no , i think that finding out his grandson is alive would do edward a world of good . tracy : really ? hmm . and what if you 're wrong ? a.j . : why do n't we talk about the real reason that you do n't want grandfather to see me ? maybe you 're afraid that he 'll take elq away from you and -- i do n't know -- ask me to run it . tracy : [ laughs ] you 're not fit to run a bath , much less elq . my concern is for my father , whose health has been failing for months . but obviously his welfare is no concern of yours . so be my guest . kill your grandfather . michael : i know a.j . was wrong , but not everything that led up to it was his fault . sam : is that what he told you ? michael : he explained his side of the story . sam : yeah . his side . of course . it 's always about his side . he paints himself to be a victim . michael : the whole situation is a lot more complicated than i realized . i mean , my mom , my dad , a.j . -- they were all acting badly . they all crossed lines , and they did damage . sam : sonny and carly are far from perfect , but it 's nothing compared to what a.j . has done . michael : i do n't want my dad to go to prison . spinelli : why did you wait until now to tell me ? maxie : i have been trying to tell you i love you for weeks . i - i even worked up courage the night of the bachelor party . i came to see you . and i walked in , you were there with ellie . you were making a date . spinelli : i do remember your behavior was puzzling , even for you . maxie : so i thought i would have an opportunity the next day at sonny 's wedding , and then you arrived . you were with ellie . i realized that was the date you were making . spinelli : okay , well , why did n't you pull me aside , find a quiet corner ? maxie : there were no quiet corners at that wedding . spinelli : valid point . it was chaotic . but there was n't -- maxie : and then ellie just turned out to be so -- so nice . you know , i thought you were dating her because she was free at the time and i was still with matt , but -- now that 's settled . spinelli : `` settled `` ? maxie : well , matt and i are over -- emotionally and legally . i divorced him for you . spinelli : well , you should n't have done that . maxie : that 's not saying much of anything . spinelli , come on . what are you thinking ? patrick : we -- we ca n't help the way we feel about people . i mean , robin 's gone . it does n't stop me from loving her . elizabeth : and i lost someone that i cared about . it does n't mean that i - i do n't miss him . sabrina : [ sighs ] i apologize for being so self - absorbed . all i 've got is a stupid crush . it 's nothing compared to what you 're going through , dr. drake -- patrick : that 's not what i meant by that . elizabeth : it 's fine . sabrina : would you both do me a favor ? i would feel so much better if we just dropped the whole subject . lulu : olivia , i am so glad that we bumped into you . olivia : `` we `` ? lulu : this is robert scorpio , mac 's brother , emma 's grandfather . olivia : i 'm honored to meet the legend . robert : well , my pleasure . lulu : and i 'm not sure if you know dr. steve webber . steve : your reputation precedes you . robert : well , now that i 'm suitably embarrassed -- uh , olivia , i need your help . lulu : um , i hope you do n't mind i told him what happened with duke this morning . olivia : you mean that i looked at him and i saw a completely different person standing there ? robert : i need you to tell me about that person you saw . olivia : honestly , it was so random , i ca n't imagine it 's gon na be any help . robert : anything that you can remember -- any slight detail -- might help me uncover what lavery 's hiding . faison : i had no idea you were still in contact with robert . anna : yeah . well , i had n't seen him since before robin died . faison : so why did he choose now to come into your life ? anna : it 's luke , is n't it ? he 's , um , informed him that i 'm in danger . faison : from me ? anna : apparently . i do n't know who i 'm more angry at , really . luke , i think , probably . because he 's been suspicious ever since you returned . i wish -- i can understand . but this constant badgering , it just -- it 's wearing thin . and now robert 's told me that -- luke has gone to turkey . faison : oh , luke has gone to turkey to see whether my story of incarceration is fact or fiction . okay . so what did he discover ? anna : that it checks out . faison : [ chuckles ] anna : not one single discrepancy . which , for a normal person , would be a signal to just move on . but , no , luke has now managed to convince robert that this is a carefully constructed lie . faison : that 's a bit extreme , is n't it ? anna : it 's played right into robert 's paranoia . you know ? he 's been a spy his whole life . he 's looked for conspiracies around every corner . so now he 's here in port charles -- to save me -- from you . or myself . i 'm not really sure which . robert : lulu tells me you did n't recognize this guy who turned up in lavery 's place . olivia : i have never seen this man before in my life . robert : can you describe him , tell me maybe about scars , tattoos , anything about his face at all ? olivia : um , aside from the fact that he totally creeped me out -- he was smoking . anna : you know , i really like to think of myself as a patient person , but robert just -- god , he works my last nerve . especially when he does this whole macho - protector thing . faison : oh , perhaps robert 's just jealous . i do n't think he ever got over losing you to me . anna : he 's not jealous . he 's insufferable . they both are , for that matter . honestly -- all the pair of them have managed to do is persuade me -- to move out of luke 's suite . faison : and come straight here to me . michael : sam , you do n't know what prison 's like , okay , and i 'm not just talking about me -- getting raped . okay , i 'm talking about all of it . you 're always on guard . you never feel safe . i mean , the air is stale . it stinks in there . i mean , you feel like you 're in this long , gray tunnel , and you never know when you 're gon na see the light of day again . i do n't care what a.j . did to deserve it . i just do n't want to see my father in prison . sam : of course i can understand that . michael : yeah , well , my mom and my dad do n't . they hate a.j . , and he hates them just as much . and hearing them screaming accusations , still fighting over me after all these years , it just makes me sick . sam : i 'm sorry , michael . michael : most of all , i just want to get away from it , you know . sam : a.j . 's not your responsibility . i do n't think you have to worry about that . michael : i know he 's not my responsibility , but he 's still my father . you know , even though my mom wishes that he was n't . sam : you know what ? i -- i never knew my father either , and if he walked through that door right now , i would ... i would want to get to know him , no matter what anyone else -- michael : yeah , so you understand . sam : yes , but it does n't mean that you should forget who a.j . really is or that your parents , they love you . and if jason were here , he would be telling you -- michael : yeah , well , jason is n't here ! tracy : what are you waiting for , a.j . ? go up and see your grandfather . you 've always been a disaster , so for your grand finale , you can shock him into the grave . a.j . : i do n't want to hurt my grandfather . tracy : since when ? ! a.j . : since always , tracy . you know , what 's wrong with you ? no matter what you think , i love that man . and i 've thought a lot about him while i 've been gone . if you honestly believe him seeing me is gon na hurt him , then i can wait . tracy : what 's your angle ? a.j . : this may actually shock you , but i do n't have one . tracy : you can back off the phony nobility . nobody 's buying it . your doting mother is n't buying it . monica : who has complete faith in her son . tracy : wow . then you deserve what you get . you 'll both have to excuse me . i 'm going to check on my father . monica : [ sighs ] a.j . : mom , is , uh -- is grandfather really that , you know , fragile ? monica : well , he has his good days and his bad days . but i think if we prepare him , he 'll have no problem seeing you . and i want to thank you for taking the high road with tracy . a.j . : i want to thank you for believing in me . and for getting me the hell out of lockup . thank you . monica : you 're my son , a.j . i 'm not gon na leave you there . a.j . : how did you manage to wrangle my bail ? monica : unh - unh . it 's not important . a.j . : no . yes , it is important . monica : no . a.j . : the size of that bond -- it 's not exactly an amount you find underneath a pillow on a couch . monica : yeah , well , you 're right about that . i did not have a lot of options . so i was forced to put the house up as collateral . olivia : he was holding one of those little things in his hand -- a skinny little brown thing , like a cross between a cigar and a cigarette , you know . robert : cigarillo ? olivia : yes ! yeah , like -- like my uncle louie used to smoke in bensonhurst . lulu : did duke smoke ? robert : not when i knew him . what else can you tell me about this guy ? olivia : um , looked a little bit like that guy from `` silence of the lambs . `` robert : hannibal lecter ? olivia : yeah , but the face was kind of skinnier , and the nose was different , and the eyebrows were real bushy . lulu : look , you remember more than you thought . olivia : yeah , but how is this gon na help anybody ? steve : maybe there 's a way to get a picture of the guy . patrick : you know , you do n't need to feel bad , all right ? i was the one that was asking about something that i overheard . elizabeth : yeah . seriously , you have some deficiencies in your eavesdropping skills . patrick : okay . listen , i apologize , all right ? do you accept my apology ? sabrina : of course . patrick : okay . i got to get back to a patient . i will see you guys later . elizabeth : see you . sabrina : bye . oh , my god . elizabeth : three , two , one , and he 's gone . gone . sabrina : oh , my god . that was a total nightmare . like , literally , i kept waiting to wake up , because i could n't believe that even i could make such a fool of myself . elizabeth : relax . it 's fine , okay ? sabrina : are you kidding me ? i was a complete idiot . elizabeth : patrick put you on the spot . there was nothing you could do . sabrina : oh , god . except say that i was in love with steve ? elizabeth : he was the first guy you saw , was n't he ? sabrina : you 're not gon na tell him anything , are you ? steve : elizabeth . elizabeth : yeah ? steve : can i talk to you for a second ? elizabeth : sure . steve : in private ? elizabeth : yeah . do n't worry . your fake crush is safe with me . steve : thanks . we could really use your help . elizabeth : `` we `` ? what are you talking about ? steve : robert scorpio is here . elizabeth : that 's weird . patrick did n't say anything . steve : i 'm not sure he knows . but , uh , robert 's gon na try to decipher one of olivia 's visions , and i think you might be able to help him uncover something about duke lavery . anna : should i take one of these ? faison : oh , you know , i was n't sure what to get , so i had them send over a little bit of everything , hoping that maybe when i saw it , i 'd know what to do with it . anna : well , do n't look at me . my skills in the kitchen have n't improved . faison : well , i could use your company . anna : it 's about all i 'm good for . faison : [ chuckles ] anna : remember robin -- she used to like to be your sous - chef . faison : yeah , i remember it like it was yesterday . anna : yeah . she was so proud that one time you guys made a pizza . faison : [ chuckles ] one of my fondest memories . i loved that little girl . anna : she loved you , too . you were really good to her . sam : you 're right . jason 's not here . michael : sam , i 'm sorry , okay . i did n't mean it like that . i just -- i just wish i could talk to jason . you know , he could understand me no matter what i was going through . sam : yeah , he was pretty great that way . michael : i just miss him . sam : me too . i do , too . michael , i 'm gon na find him , and i 'm gon na bring him home . michael : sam , do you think that , uh -- you think that jason 's alive ? sam : yes . of course . i know in my heart that jason 's still alive . michael : yeah , you 're right . you 're right . i mean , he 's strong . he 'll figure something out . sam : yeah . he 's not gon na have to do it alone , either , michael . i 'm gon na rescue him , and when i do , i 'm gon na make whoever shot him pay . faison : well , dinner wo n't make itself . anna : no . okay . so , which way is the kitchen , that way ? faison : yes . that way . anna : all right , i 'll find it . faison : [ sighs ] maxie : spinelli , please say something . spinelli : i - i 'm trying to -- formulate my recollection . um -- i do remember you telling me that you were free . maxie : and you did n't say one word . spinelli : it was a rather precipitous announcement , considering it did come in the middle of the floating rib , when i was on a date with ellie . maxie : you 're always on a date with ellie . halloween , my birthday -- i thought i was gon na be able to celebrate that with you . and i wound up being the third wheel . i was lucky i got one measly dance with you . spinelli : you cut in on a dance with me and ellie . maxie : so i raised the topic of my divorce again , because it was n't embarrassing enough the first time . and again , you have this weird , like , nonreaction . you did manage to tell me that you did n't think matt was the right guy for me . but you just walked off . spinelli : i was distracted by an interesting costume . maxie : that does n't matter now . because right after that -- i saw you looking at me . and i know that you knew i wanted you back . you knew that night , did n't you ? a.j . : mom , dad gave you this house . how could you put it up as collateral ? monica : the bail was very steep , a.j . a.j . : you should n't have done it . monica : oh . look , i had not seen you or talked to you in years . i was not about to let you spend another night in jail , no matter what the cost . a.j . : i do n't even know what to say , except for thank you . and i love you . monica : all i ask of you is you be very , very careful . if you leave this property , the authorities are gon na know just like that , and i will lose the house . you will go right back to jail . a.j . : i wo n't risk your house or my -- tracy : hi . it 's tracy quartermaine . i need to find michael corinthos . i 'm nora . and i 'm nate . spinelli : it does n't matter , but you knew , and yet you still invited ellie to be your roommate . maxie : ellie invited herself . spinelli : yeah , but you agreed , despite my objections . maxie : what was i supposed to say ? `` sorry , ellie , no , you ca n't move in with me . i 'm in love with your boyfriend . `` spinelli : okay , maybe not that blatant , but some variation of the truth would have been helpful . maxie : i just figured when you would come over to see ellie i might have the opportunity to tell you how i feel . spinelli : it did n't occur to you to request a meeting at -- i do n't know -- a park , a restaurant , a quiet nook of a library ? maxie : no , that did not occur to me . and you know what else did n't occur to me ? that you would launch into an epic make - out session with someone else in my apartment , standing right in front of me . did you even notice that i disappeared ? spinelli : i assumed you went out to socialize . maxie : i could n't stand to see you with another woman . spinelli : you were jealous ? maxie : jealous . and completely heartbroken , so i started over to the haunted star and opened vein to dante and lulu . spinelli : you confided in others ? maxie : lulu told me she thought i should be honest with you and tell you how i feel , so i called your cell phone , but you did n't answer . spinelli : i was -- i was otherwise engaged . maxie : no kidding . i was determined to talk to you the next morning , until i saw you walk out of ellie 's room in nothing but your boxers , and that 's when i realized you did n't answer your phone because you two were having sex . spinelli : i apologize if i seemed inconsiderate , but -- i - i had no i -- maxie : sitting here with the two of you , i , um , i realized i had to be honest and just tell you how i feel . and that could have been a mistake . maybe not . but it 's your call . anna : what exactly are we celebrating ? faison : voicemail . [ both chuckle ] anna : thanks . faison : if it had n't been for the message you left me in d.c. , i would n't have known that you missed me . anna : oh . i was n't really angling for dinner . faison : you do n't have to be shy , anna . when i heard your voice and i heard that message , it was as if all those years just melted away . when you said you missed hearing my voice , well , i miss hearing your voice . anna : look , i still have feelings -- faison : we do n't have to answer all the big questions , like are we still married , or do we pick up where we left off ? we 're here together . that 's enough for me . to our future . [ glasses clink ] anna : to us . monica : we should probably give him a call and tell him -- tracy : monica , have you seen daddy today ? monica : not since this morning . why ? tracy : well -- i do n't know . he looks kind of pale . would you mind checking on him and making sure he 's all right ? monica : yeah . i 'll be right back . tracy : thank you .

sam : i 'm really glad you came over . michael : yeah , me too . sam : i 'm gon na take this little guy upstairs . i think he needs to be changed . michael : all right . i 'll just walk myself out . sam : okay . hey , michael , do me a favor . remember what i said about a.j . just be careful , okay ?

[ scene_break ] jack : you look like a nervous teenager , sitting out here . carly : some things you never grow out of . how 's liberty ? jack : she 's kind of green . she does n't have much of an appetite . i -- i thought she 'd be sick to her stomach , but apparently , that does n't start right away . carly : well , if you need to go back to the farm -- jack : no . she -- she 's probably glad to , uh , be alone for a while . but i left her with a couple of phones , so if she calls , i can turn on the lights and sirens and be back in five minutes . carly : and how 's janet ? jack : quiet . terrified . uh , she went to go grab some groceries . i 'm sure she 's gon na come home and start cooking to keep her mind -- [ jack sighs ] let 's not do this , carly . carly : do what ? jack : pretend that everything 's okay . it 's killing me sitting here , talking about -- carly : your wife . she is your wife . jack : yeah . it does n't make it any easier . carly : so what am i supposed to do ? how am i supposed to act ? jack : i do n't know . not polite -- making up small talk , pretending like we 're strangers . carly : well , i 'm really sorry if it 's painful for you , but this is the only way that i can be right now . the way we feel about each other -- talking about that would only cause trouble . jack : oh , come on , carly . we ca n't just ignore what 's going on . [ scene_break ] luke : damian grimaldi is my father , and he did n't just disappear into thin air . so if you have any information about him , i have a right to know . cop : no , we do n't . but given the , uh , severity of the situation , finding your father is our top priority . luke : well , what about my aunt meg ? have you found her ? well , why not ? she knows what happened to my father . all you have to do is find her . cop : are you suggesting that there 's foul play ? luke : no , no . i -- i just want my father found . [ scene_break ] molly : so , what are we missing ? is there some other town that meg would run to ? holden : no . eliza 's here . fairwinds is the only logical place for her to go . paul 's hidden her before . molly : but i believe him when he said he had n't seen her . holden : okay . my mother said she 's not out at the stables . she 's not with paul . molly : and you and i both know she did n't go follow damian . she 's your sister , holden . you know her better than anybody . where would meg go ?

[ meg laughs ] meg : with you . relax , lily . i did n't come here to hurt you . i need your help . lily : i 'm -- i 'm not the right person , meg . you need a doctor . meg : i told you , there is nothing wrong with me ! lily : well , somebody that -- that 's on your side , then . what -- what about your brother ? have you called him ? he loves you . he 'll -- he 'll find a way to help you . meg : he 'd try , but he does n't understand the way you do . damian played us both for fools . he told me that he was leaving you , a -- and he probably told you that i was delusional , did n't he ? look , we were both stupid enough to believe him , 'cause we still loved him , and we refused to believe the truth even when it was staring us in the face . look , i 'm no crazier than you are . we 're the same . my family does n't get that . you do . lily : it 's more complicated than that , meg . meg : no , it 's not . i understand how you feel . that 's why i know i can trust you . lily : are you kidding me ? you broke into my house ! you cut me with a piece of broken glass ! you tried to poison me ! why in god 's name would i ever want to help you ? [ scene_break ] luke : hey , guys . holden : hey . luke : any word on meg ? holden : no , not yet . any ideas where she might be ? luke : just fairwinds . holden : we were there . paul has n't seen her . you okay ? luke : um , not really . look , dad , i have to tell you something . i know you wanted me to drop it , but -- i went to the cops about damian . holden : luke , i told you , he 's gone . he 's not worried about you . the only thing he 's worried about is saving his own skin . luke : yeah , but dad , what if that 's not true ? he was planning on leaving town , yes , but he took the time to tell me . and he might have been on that ship like you said , but now that they found his wallet in the river -- molly : maybe that was planned . maybe he ditched it on purpose . luke : or maybe meg found him before he left . holden : luke -- luke : come on , dad . look , i 'm sorry , but something about damian 's disappearance does n't make any sense , and i 'm not going to stop until i find out exactly what happened to him . [ scene_break ] carly : parker 's been leaving for school every morning . i had no idea that he was cutting classes . did you ? jack : no , of course not . i thought -- i thought he was getting back on track , now that you 've been back home . he knows how important his grades are this semester if he wants to go to college . carly : you say this has been going on for weeks ? principal : parker shows up for morning classes , but most days , he 's gone by the afternoon . jack : when you mean gone , you mean he leaves campus ? principal : mm - hmm . carly : well , i know this is not good , but , um , i can sort of understand it , you know , given the circumstances . principal : is there more turmoil at home , ms. tenney ? carly : is that your polite way of asking if i 'm drinking again ? jack : whoa , whoa ! nothing could be further from the truth . carly : it 's okay . jack : no , it 's not . i 'm not gon na sit here and let this man who knows absolutely nothing about what 's going on in our family judge you . [ scene_break ] parker : you 're not gon na die , liberty . liberty : i was just watching the -- the drip going to my arm . they call it my `` cocktail . `` and i was thinking , `` i 'm having a battery - acid martini before i 'm even old enough to have a real drink . `` i just do n't understand how pumping poison into somebody can cure anything . parker : well -- i read somewhere that you 're not supposed to look at it like that . you have to picture it in a positive way . liberty : i 'll get on it . parker : no . no , no , no , no . really , it 's called visualization , mind over matter . there 's actually scientific data that backs it up . liberty : you did research . parker : i want to help . liberty : what am i supposed to do ? parker : okay . well , um , just imagine the drugs are this force that 's going through your body that 's going to obliterate the cancer . in fact , the -- the drugs are like a spaceship , okay ? and there 's millions of spaceships going through your veins , and they 're shooting the cancer cells with their lasers . and just imagine me , the -- the captain . um , i 'm behind -- hey . are you okay ? are you sick ? are you -- ? liberty : i 've just never been so scared about anything in my whole life . [ scene_break ] jack : carly 's been sober for months , and she 's a terrific mother . she always has been , no matter what 's going on . but everybody makes mistakes , even you , or else you would have done your job and taken the time and talked to parker , and you would have found out that he 's upset because his best friend has leukemia , and she 's fighting for her life . principal : i knew about liberty , but i -- i did n't put it together . jack : obviously . and liberty does n't want the whole school talking about her . so i 'd appreciate it if you kept it under wraps as much as possible . principal : of course . carly : we will talk to parker , make sure he catches up on his schoolwork . jack : and next time , you do the math before you come up with the answer . we 're done here . [ scene_break ] meg : i was n't myself when i did those things to you . damian set me up . ca n't you see that ? he told me that he loved me , that we were gon na be together as soon as he got rid of you . lily : so you admit it , then . you did poison our wedding cake to move things along . meg : i did n't do that . lily : he could have died , meg ! meg : yeah , but he did n't . oh , my god . lily : what ? meg : oh , my god . it was just another one of his setups . he poisoned that cake himself so he could seal the deal against me . lily : no . it was sent to the farm , remember ? and you just said yourself that you were waiting to get rid of me . you saw your chance , and you took it . meg : no . no , look . after everything you 've seen damian do , is poisoning himself really that far from the realm of possibility ? come on . you know i 'm right . lily : i do n't think damian would take a risk like that . meg : but it was n't really a risk , was it , because he knew you would believe him . and there 's nothing like the fear of losing someone to bind you closer together . come on , lily . tell me you believe me . lily : look , i 'm not saying it 's impossible , but -- [ siren wailing ] meg : lily , what did you do ? lily : i 'm sorry , meg . i triggered the silent alarm . meg : but i was n't gon na hurt you . why would you do that ? lily : you broke into my house ! the way you grabbed my arm -- meg : to make you listen ! lily : how was i supposed to know that ? meg : you know , you of all people , i thought you would understand . lily : i do understand , meg . damian took advantage of both of us . but it 's over . he 's gone now . he ca n't hurt you . meg : yeah , well , if the police find me , they 're gon na take me back to deerbrook , and damian wins . we ca n't let him win . lily : no , no , i -- i will do everything i can to make sure that does n't happen . but , meg , you -- you need to do something for me . you need to tell me the truth . meg : i have n't lied to you . lily : i know . i 'm sorry that it took me so long to believe you . but , meg , did you do something to damian ? the truth . did you hurt damian ? [ scene_break ] holden : i really wish you had n't gone to the police . it 's just gon na make it that much harder to find meg . luke : dad , i 'm sorry what i did upset you , but i felt like i had to do it . damian could be in trouble . molly : uh , i have to cover a story . i 'll catch up with you later . holden : sure . listen , i understand that you 're worried about damian , but i 'm sure he 's fine . otherwise , we would have heard something by now . luke : so the fact that they found his wallet in the river does n't bother you ? holden : i 'm worried more about meg right now . and what you told the police -- they 're not gon na ignore that . and when they find meg , they 're gon na question her about damian 's disappearance . luke : good . because i think she could be involved . holden : she 's not , and there 's no reason to upset her . damian has hurt her enough , do n't you think ? luke : that 's not the point , dad . holden : look , i think my sister has earned the right to forget about damian . i think we all have at this point , including your mother . luke : look , dad , i know that damian has done some terrible , inexcusable things , and i am not defending him , but if something 's happened to my father -- holden : i am your father ! [ scene_break ] jack : plenty of people have gone through rehab . and the audacity to assume that you 've started drinking again is absolutely absurd . carly : it 's not impossible , jack . jack : i do n't care . you 're stronger than that . carly : you know , it 's -- a funny thing about the program . to be strong , you first have to admit that you 're powerless over alcohol . jack : yes , okay , but that is the point . you 're doing it . you have n't had a drink in how many days now ? carly : probably not as many as you think . i slipped . jack : when ? carly : when you told me that liberty was sick , that you had to stay with janet . jack : i did n't know . carly : i 'd been waiting for you at the house . i thought you were gon na come in , and then we were gon na start over . so i -- i ordered a pizza and some beer . the beer for you , of course , not for me . and then you showed up , and -- even given the scope of our on - again , off - again relationship , it was something that i absolutely did not expect . so i grabbed the six - pack . i went out to the lake . i thought that i could say goodbye to you , to us . i was feeling really low , and the beer looked really good . so i took a sip . jack : then what ? carly : i dumped the rest out , went to a meeting . jack : i 'm proud of you . carly : for blowing it ? jack : you did n't blow it . you did n't blow it . you stopped yourself . it would have been easy to put away that six -- six - pack . no one would have known . carly : i would . crying , moaning about losing a married man , the place we first said `` i love you `` -- i did n't want to be that woman . jack : you 're not . you 've proven that . carly : and i 'm back to day one . jack : it 's not easy starting over . carly : it never is . but i know it 's worth it . jack : so do i . carly : parker 's bike 's outside , so you know he 's here . jack : probably upstairs with liberty . carly : then let 's go deliver the bad news .

luke is determined to find out what happened to damian despite holden 's advice to let things be because damian is n't coming back . holden promises to find out what happened to damian so that luke can have peace about things . luke talks to a crewman on a grimaldi ship who says he saw a badly beaten man on the dock and was going to help him but when he got off the ship to help him the man was gone . the crewman tells luke he thinks the man 's body was washed out to sea . lily is shocked to discover meg when she arrives home from the grocery store meg asks for help because damian has set her up so well that nobody believes her but lily panics and calls the police . molly gets a tip that meg is at lily 's house and tells meg that she will help her . molly and meg have a long talk and molly persuades meg that her family is horrified by what damian did to her and they love her and want her to get well . molly tells meg that eliza needs her family and liberty also needs her help because she has leukemia and everyone in the snyder clan is getting tested to see if they are a match in case liberty needs a bone marrow transplant . meg decides to go back to deerbrook but before she goes she wants to make a stop at the hospital to get tested as a possible donor for liberty .

[ chuckles ] ... is that he 's got luke spencer 's face . [ sighs ] sonny : what the hell you talking about ? fluke : batter up ! luke : [ muffling ] fluke : what 's the matter ? you a coward ? you better hold still , you coward . i have to get just the right angle here in order to get maximum torque . i 'm gon na put your lights out ... and crack your skull open on the first swing . more humane that way . so , here we go . one ... two ... three ! f m tracy : thank you . lulu : what did aunt bobbie do ? tracy : well , she had brunch with your dad on new year 's day , and she brought up a couple subjects that luke did n't like . lulu : such as ? tracy : bill eckert , for one . fluke : hah ! a swing and a miss ! [ laughs ] [ laughing ] oh , god , you should see yourself . you 're trembling like a virgin at a nudist rodeo . you really thought i was gon na bash your head in , did n't you ? luke : [ muffled ] sick son of a bitch ! fluke : nah , nah . no , it 's barbara jean 's brains i want to splatter against the wall . so , come on , louis . let 's go find her . what do you say ? louis . that 's short for louisville slugger , you know . of course you know . this is your bat . this is that beloved relic of your idyllic childhood . yeah . louis and i are going upstairs now . it stinks down here . luke : [ muffling ] i swear to you , i 'll kill you ! fluke : say what ? [ laughs ] michael : okay , what are you talking about ? what psychotic killer ? bobbie : have n't you learned anything ? when you hear a creepy noise , you do n't go check it out ! you run away and you call the police ! michael : right , i think you 've been watching a little too many horror movies there , grandma . bobbie : [ sighs ] yeah , well , i ca n't help it , you know ? [ sighs ] between josslyn 's corn movie and lucas and brad 's love of `` american horror story , `` i am inundated . but there 's one thing i know for sure . because whoever goes to check out the creepy sound first becomes the killer 's first victim . michael : you do know those are n't documentaries , right ? i promise you there 's no psychotic killer in the basement . julian : look , i was n't gon na tell you this 'cause i thought i was safe in here , but after those meatheads tried to kill me , obviously i 'm not . sonny : okay , get to the point . julian : faison was just a decoy . so this guy who 's been impersonating luke for these last few months , the impostor who married tracy , who tried to take over elq , who 's been living luke 's life , he 's still living it . helena : have a glance at it if you wish . and then finally tell me that you are ready to take up the mantle to which you were born . alexis : a penny stock for your thoughts ? sam : i have reason to believe that helena masterminded faison 's escape . spencer said that he saw her on the docks . carly : spencer cassadine ? you 're now questioning little children ? sam : he is my cousin , and he told his father that he saw helena on the docks and that faison was there and he jumped into a boat for parts unknown . carly : spencer saw faison ? sam : no , for once , helena did the right thing and actually sent him home , but the police believe that faison escaped by boat after the gunman set him free . so , if jake was the one who grabbed me hostage , then i think that he 's acting on helena 's orders . carly : let me get this straight . you now think jake works for helena cassadine ? helena : you 're active . jason : i 'm what ? what does that mean ? helena : oh , i am so pleased that you do n't recall . that means that your conditioning is working perfectly . jason : my conditioning ? what are you talking about ? where 's dr. collins ? helena : oh , he 's been delayed . allow me to introduce myself . jason : helena cassadine . yeah , i know who you are . i met you on thanksgiving , then i saw your picture in the paper the next day , and elizabeth explained everything about you , what you 've done to her family . helena : we had another meeting the day after thanksgiving . you completed a very important mission for me . do you remember ? maxie : [ sighs ] okay . now that we 're a little more coherent ... nathan : coherence is overrated . maxie : again ? ! it has n't even been close to 20 minutes ! nathan : well , i 've only got an hour for lunch . i want to make the most of it . besides , i do n't want your attention wandering . maxie : [ scoffs ] you know , i just got finished telling lulu that i did not think that you were a jealous guy , and what ? you 're getting a little possessive 'cause you heard me say that i think the bartender at metro court 's cute ? nathan : [ speaks french ] maxie : english ? nathan : yes . i am getting all caveman because you were checking out that bartender . maxie : well , i think it 's super - sexy when you get all caveman , but you have no reason to be jealous . i never even met that guy . nathan : so , i should only be jealous of guys you have met ? hmm ? maxie : you should n't be jealous , period . although he was super - attractive . i did tell lulu he looks more like a soldier than a bartender . nathan : you could be closer to the truth than you realize . maxie : truth ? what truth ? nathan : the guy 's name is jake doe . sam is pretty sure that he 's the guy who held her hostage and shot me . jason : i did n't complete any mission for you , lady . helena : you do n't remember because you were ordered not to . jason : okay . you know what i do remember ? you 're a criminal , so i 'm gon na go call the cops , let them deal with you . just wait right there . helena : do n't take another step . jason : why ca n't i leave ? helena : because you were ordered not to . you work for me . jason : i do n't work for you . helena : well , if you insist on being literal , you are an asset . you were conditioned to take my orders . jason : why ? helena : because you are the best at what you do . now , take a seat . we need to have a little chat about samantha morgan . sam : i think it 's possible that jake is working with helena , yes . carly : that 's crazy . sam : what do you mean , crazy ? you do n't even know the guy . we do n't even know his real name ! carly : the man has a brain injury , sam ! hell , he was hit by a car ! no , correction -- he was run down by an suv ! sam : an suv ! i know ! i 'm not saying that the accident was fake , but the memory loss -- that sure as hell can be faked . i mean , it 's an easy way to dodge questions about his past . carly : he 's not dodging anything ! sam : really ? how well do you really know this guy ? carly : i know the guy does n't have any money . i know he was working for me on new year 's eve and taking out the trash the next morning . i know that i had to comp him a room because he did n't have a place to stay . sam : [ sighs ] carly : so -- so why would a guy need all that if he has such a sweet deal with helena cassadine ? sam : why ? because maybe that 's his cover ! carly : cover for what ? ! what is he covering for ? ! sam : i do n't know ! i 'm trying to figure that out ! come on , carly ! you 're not stupid . think about it . first he was shacking up with elizabeth , and now he 's cozying up to you ! carly : he 's not cozying up with me . outside of a job , jake has asked me for nothing . sam : yeah , because he 's not stupid . he wants everyone to like him . carly : come on , sam . this is n't about jake . it 's about you . sam : me ? carly : yeah . it 's about you . sam : [ scoffs ] carly : faison escaped . the man who killed jason is free , and you 're the reason the cops could n't go after the gunman . sam : [ chuckles ] really ? you think that i blame myself ? carly : i know you 're blaming yourself . you should n't , but yes , you are . you ca n't accept that faison 's probably on the other side of the planet , so you 're putting your misplaced anger and grief on an innocent man . sam : he is not innocent . he shot a cop , and he set faison free . carly : you have no proof of any of this . you have no proof whatsoever , sam . but you 've convinced yourself that this is true . and now you have jake wondering if he did it . sam : wait a minute . what ? what did you just say ? jake is wondering if he did it or not ? nikolas : alexis , you caught me dealing with a business matter . alexis : yeah , i recognize stock certificates when i see them . so , they from a new company you 're investing in ? nikolas : yeah , something like that . alexis : well , not only am i a cassadine . i am also your attorney , so if you need some help ... nikolas : no , i appreciate the offer , but i 'm still in the early stages , investigating all the possibilities . when i know more , i 'll let you know . alexis : okay , well , just so you know , i 'm happy to help . nikolas : thank you . so , what brings you by ? alexis : well , i just want to check in on you and see that you 're not too lonely now that britt has ... nikolas : what ? fled the authorities with her sociopath father ? alexis : well , i was n't gon na put it quite like that , but now that you have , how are you ? nikolas : angry at myself for letting her back into my life . alexis : i know how you feel . nikolas : i let spencer believe that she could be part of our family . he 's devastated that she 's gone . i ... i do n't know . i guess i - i never realized just how much he wants a mother . alexis : aww . well , i 'm sorry , but you know , spencer is so resilient , and there 's so many people who love him . nikolas : yeah . alexis : he 'll be okay . nikolas : if he ever talks to me again . alexis : oh , you 're getting the silent treatment ? i hate that . so , what have you been doing ? you just been hanging around the house with no one to talk to ? nikolas : no , there always seems to be someone coming or going . alexis : hmm . nikolas : always happy to see you , however . alexis : sure you are . nikolas : i should be asking you how you are . i 'm sure you 've got a lot on your mind with julian jerome behind bars . sonny : wait a minute . are you telling me that miscavige was staged ? is that what you 're saying ? julian : i did n't know it at the time , all right ? i really thought that alexis and i were saving luke . but this impostor guy , he found out about our plan , and he changed places with luke again . sonny : how could he have known ? julian : i 'm telling you , this guy has ears and eyes everywhere . he 's working with faison . he 's working with jerry jacks . he 's working with helena cassadine . sonny : what is this ? the league of psychopaths ? is that what we 're dealing with ? julian : yeah , he 's got some powerful allies . i 'm -- i 'm telling you , this guy is dangerous , okay ? he wants to take over our territories . he 's in a prime position to do it . i mean , he 's settling in at the quartermaine mansion . he 's -- he 's making all his plans from there . i 'm telling you , this guy -- [ scoffs ] he 's our true enemy , okay ? he 's armed and he 's dangerous . bobbie : luke ! michael : you scared the crap out of me . fluke : well , you startled me , too . what the hell are you two doing here ? bobbie : i think the better question is , what the hell are you doing here ? lulu : i only vaguely remember the story of bill eckert . i think my family was in hiding when he was in port charles . he 's the guy that took the bullet that was meant for my dad ? tracy : died in luke 's arms . lulu : well , i guess that 's why dad was upset when bobbie mentioned him . tracy : that part i understand completely . it 's the rest of it that 's troubling . lulu : what do you mean ? tracy : well , you know your dad does n't like to talk about his childhood , not his parents , his other sister , their life together -- lulu : i 'm sorry . wait a minute . what other sister ? sam : did jake tell you something ? did he confess to you ? carly : no , he did n't confess , sam . there 's nothing to confess to . but you and jake were in the pcpd , right , where you were taken hostage , and you kept hammering him , telling him that he was the one who grabbed you . it flipped him out to the point that he had a false memory . sam : what makes you so sure it was false ? helena : shall we talk about samantha ? jason : she 's accusing me of taking her hostage at the pcpd , using her to liberate a prisoner . helena : faison , yes ? jason : yes . i told her it could n't be me because i was out looking for a job , but , uh ... i get this ... flicker . it 's like a memory of grabbing sam . helena : describe the memory . jason : just -- just snapshots . i ca n't tell you what happened right before or right after , but ... the image is in my head . it seems real . helena : why consult dr. collins ? jason : so he can examine me . tell me that i 'm innocent . but i 'm not innocent , am i ? helena : you ... are guilty as sin . nikolas : i spoke with sam . she filled me in on the situation with julian . alexis : ah , yes . the situation . nikolas : so , he confessed to a - a murder someone already went to prison for ? alexis : yeah , another surprise . julian claims that he killed anthony zacchara , although i do n't know why i 'm surprised anymore , because this is the same man that knew that luke was in an asylum and did n't lift a finger to help him . sonny : if this guy is n't faison , who the hell is he ? julian : [ sighs ] i thought i knew , but i do n't . i do n't even know his name . after luke 's supposed rescue , i really thought that my boss was faison in a mask . but then this whoever impostor , he approaches me again . sonny : was this -- was this before or after he escaped from prison -- faison ? julian : after . sonny : okay , what if -- what if it was just , you know , faison all over again ? you know what i mean ? julian : [ scoffs ] sonny : no , i 'm just saying . julian : no , look , i 'm telling you this guy that was threatening me was definitely not faison in a mask . i do n't care how high - tech it was . look , i do n't know what to tell you . this guy -- he has luke spencer 's face . sonny : how is that possible ? julian : no idea . sonny : okay , let 's say it was the impostor that was rescued at the loony bin at , uh , you know , on thanksgiving . where 's the real luke spencer right now ? fluke : well , since our non - breakfast new year 's day , i 've been doing a lot of thinking . you brought up some bad memories for me , barbara . it upset me . bobbie : i picked up on that when you stormed out without eating . fluke : well , i did n't expect that out of you . you blindsided me . we never talk about the past . what do you know ? michael : nothing specific . i mean , i know that you and grandma did n't have the happiest childhood . fluke : [ chuckles ] that 's putting it mildly . anyway , i decided to confront the ugliness face to face . and then guess what ? i found this old key . bobbie : me , too . [ chuckles ] who would have thought we 'd both hold on to our last connection with this place ? fluke : [ inhales deeply ] the past has a stronger hold on me than i thought . i 've been doing a lot of reminiscing about the bad , old days . you know what i mean ? lulu : what are you saying ? you 're saying that my dad and aunt bobbie have another sister ? tracy : you did n't know ? lulu : no ! this is the first i 'm hearing of it ! tracy : well , i never met the woman . i did hear my mother mention this sister patricia a couple of times , and i 'm assuming that she did not move to florida with luke and bobbie . lulu : well , what happened to patricia ? you think she 's still alive ? tracy : i have absolutely no idea . when i brought it up to your father , he just shut down . should have dropped the subject , but i wanted to get him to acknowledge his childhood . instead , he said he needed to take a walk , get some air , and clear his head . i hope that 's what he 's doing right now . bobbie : yeah , i know what you mean . soon as we pulled up in front of this house , i was swamped with memories of things that i have n't thought about in decades . and then ... came here , i saw mama and dad 's chair and transported me back to our childhood . so , yes , i do know the power that the past can hold . fluke : i knew you 'd understand . bobbie : that explains what you 're doing here . why were you in the basement ? maxie : believe me , i want t inc p the only fda approved , maxie : believe me , i want the guy who shot you arrested and prosecuted . i mean , talk about a crime , marking up that gorgeous body . nathan : the criminal charges are for shooting a cop . maxie : i know . but you 're , like , a sexy cop , so there should be additional charges . just not against that jake guy . i do n't think he did it . nathan : how do you know if you 've never even met the guy ? maxie : okay , if faison paid you to break him out of jail , would you hang around to get a bartending job in the same city where that jailbreak happened ? or would you be laying on a beach somewhere where there is n't an extradition treaty ? nathan : okay , you make a good point . according to dante , sam 's convinced . he 's the guy that held her hostage . maxie : i think it 's more complicated than that . how much do you really know about sam 's husband , jason ? nathan : well , i know that he was an enforcer for sonny corinthos , and i know that faison killed him . maxie : sam 's had a really rough life . i think jason was the first person who made her feel stable and gave her a home . she really loved him . and right when they got their son back , jason was gone . they never even found his body . grief like that , it does n't really go away . you just find a way to live with it and move on , but the anger is still there . and you want so bad to ... put a face to your loss , you know , find someone who 's responsible . carly : jake has suffered a traumatic brain injury . sam : mm - hmm . carly : he ca n't even remember his own name . and you 're badgering him , insisting that he did this terrible thing . you planted this in his head , and now he 's remembering things that are n't even true ! sam : what do you mean , they are n't ? how -- how can you be so sure ? carly : because jake was out looking for a job at the time of faison 's escape , okay ? he remembers everywhere he went , every single person he talked to . you ca n't be in two places at once , can you ? sam : you can if you 're lying about job hunting , carly . yes , you can . carly : okay . well , jake is in kevin collins ' office right now proving he 's an innocent man . jason : so , i took sam and i shot that cop ? helena : you executed your orders perfectly , as i knew you would . nikolas : i 'm sorry about julian . believe me , i know something about having feelings for someone that will never be the person you need them to be . it 's very difficult . alexis : yeah , well , now julian is olivia 's problem . nikolas : olivia falconeri ? alexis : yeah . they slept together on new year 's eve . did n't you hear ? nikolas : no , i must have missed that bulletin on the local news . alexis : well , they were running around the metro court half - dressed . i 'm surprised channel 7 did n't break in regular programming . [ sighs ] anyway , i 'm dating ned now . nikolas : yes , sam mentioned that , too . going well ? alexis : yes , yeah . yep . really good . we have a lot in common . nikolas : sure . alexis : and , you know , we were almost married . nikolas : right , right . you ran out of the church like it was on fire . alexis : we 're more mature now . and we 're just dating . we 're not -- we 're not getting married . nikolas : [ laughs ] i 'm not the one who mentioned it . you did . alexis : hmm . yeah , okay . uh , well , he , uh , he 's a great guy . he 's not a criminal . he 's also an upstanding businessman . nikolas : so , ned is back at elq ? alexis : well , michael 's running it , but ned is helping out . nikolas : really ? alexis : mm - hmm . he has a much more active role now . nikolas : what about tracy ? lulu : so you and dad have this fight ? tracy : ah , ah , ah , ah ! minor disagreement . lulu : minor disagreement . tracy : thank you . lulu : how have things been between the two of you otherwise ? tracy : well , i guess you would know if you bothered to visit every once in a while . lulu : oh ! i was giving you space so you could get reacquainted . tracy : thank you for the space . and to answer your question , things have been really good with me and luke . he 's getting back in the swing of things , and he 's like his old self . i ca n't tell you how much i missed it . lulu : that 's great . tracy : it is . maybe every once in awhile he 's ... well , a little distant . but not to worry . it 's nothing compared to what i went through when i was living with that impostor . fluke : i was just taking a look around . i found this down there . remember ? my old louisville slugger ? bobbie : yeah . i ca n't believe that thing is still here . michael : yeah , we , um , we heard a crash downstairs . are you okay ? fluke : oh , yeah , no . [ chuckling ] i just , uh , i broke a whiskey jug getting this off the shelf . do you remember how much i used to love baseball ? [ sighs ] how much fun we used to have when the old man was n't around ? you would throw the ball , and i 'd smack the hell out of it ? [ chuckles ] bobbie : well , i do remember you had to climb that tree out back a time or two to get the ball back . fluke : yeah . i would n't mind taking a couple of swings right now . but it would n't be right with michael here . that 'd be kind of rude . we 'll have to do our batting practice some other time . [ sniffs ] so , what are you doing here ? you 're reminiscing , too ? drag your grandson along for the ride ? michael : uh , actually , no . i want to take a look at the place . i have big plans for the property . sonny : you know what ? whether luke is alive or dead , you knew your real boss was holding him prisoner , and you kept your mouth shut ! julian : okay , this guy is n't exactly a reasonable dude , all right ? i 'm sorry i 'm not gon na risk my entire family to go against him . sonny : i do n't want to hear excuses . i 'm just praying that luke is alive , 'cause if he is , he 's gon na need some help , right ? julian : right . sonny : you said the impostor 's still out there , so we got to stop him . julian : that would be difficult under the best of circumstances , which clearly these are not ! sonny : okay , i hate to say this ... julian : [ sighs ] sonny : we got to go to the cops . julian : we ca n't do that . alexis : what do you mean , tracy ? nikolas : where does she stand in relation to elq ? now that ned 's back , i assume his mother is , too . alexis : no , actually . she does n't hold any shares in the company anymore . nikolas : why ? what happened ? alexis : she got tricked into handing them over , both hers and alice 's , to jerry jacks . nikolas : je -- you 're telling me that jerry jacks has the actual original stock certificates ? alexis : you know jerry . he 's nothing if not thorough . he even had someone hand - deliver them to him in europe . why are you so interested in this ? tracy : enough about me and luke . i want to hear about you . lulu : well , i 'm great . rocco 's great . dante 's great . tracy : [ sighs ] that is an embarrassment of riches . lulu : i am beyond blessed . although dante is n't so happy that johnny zacchara is running around town again . tracy : yes , well , luke showed me the newspaper article , and we got to reminisce about how johnny tried to frame us for murder . lulu : [ laughs ] i do n't think dante 's any happier about this than you are . they had a little run - in . right here , actually . tracy : they had a run - in ? lulu : johnny came straight here when he was released to celebrate . i just happened to be here . i had no idea that he had been released . i got over my shock , and then we were talking . tracy : oh . chatting with a convict . lulu : he was exonerated . dante did n't care about that detail , either . tracy : good for dante . lulu : honestly , i think he 's a little jealous of my history with johnny . tracy : first of all , lulu , that was not a golden time in your life , and you would do us all a big favor if you do n't revisit it . and second of all , i think dante is smart enough to not be threatened by that degenerate anthony 's son . even in death , that man is nothing but trouble . lulu : i loathed anthony , but it 's not his fault he was murdered . tracy : something 's fishy about it . all of a sudden , johnny is innocent and julian jerome is guilty ? lulu : i know . something seems strange . tracy : yeah . really strange . trust me . there 's more to that story . julian : come on , now . the cops ? they ca n't help us . this guy is out of control . as our earlier run - in with those goons proved , okay ? he 's obviously using johnny zacchara 's contacts in prison here . sonny : two are dead , and you know what happened to the other one . julian : so what ? we got rid of two or three . big deal . guess what ? he 's got a million more cockroaches where they came from . with zacchara under his thumb ... sonny : mm - hmm . julian : ... he 's got a direct line to all these guys . sonny : we 'll figure out another way . julian : okay . this guy thought i betrayed him . sonny : right . julian : he tried to shoot lucas , okay ? he tried to have my son killed , and he did the same to you . sonny : what ? julian : you remember one night a hitman showed up at michael 's apartment trying to put a bullet in his face ? sonny : yeah . julian : guess who sent him . fluke : a clinic , huh ? michael : yeah , um , our original location fell through , but this one fits our needs thanks to the proximity to the waterfront . bobbie : do n't you think it 's a wonderful idea ? fluke : i do n't know how i feel about it . you know , michael , i came to you and offered help with elq , and you told me to buzz off . you said you did n't want to work with anybody whose face was the same as the guy who 'd given you so much trouble . you turned me down , michael . why would i let you tear down our house to build anything ? michael : well , with all due respect , it 's not really up to you . this house belongs to your cousin , bill eckert . carly : i got jake an appointment with kevin collins . he can hypnotize jake . he can pull out the true memories . and jake will find out what he did or did not do . sam : oh , oh , that sounds like a good idea . carly : yeah , it is , because when jake comes out of that office , we 're gon na prove you wrong . jason : you say i 've been conditioned to do what you tell me ? it must be true , because there 's nothing more i want to do than leave this room and i ca n't . helena : not until i tell you to . jason : so i just do whatever you say , right ? carry out your missions , shoot whoever you want shot , and then i just forget ? helena : exactly . jason : why are you doing this to me ? to the people who are here to help me ? why ambush me in a psychiatrist 's office ? helena : as opposed to ? jason : i 'm your asset . why do n't you have me stationed somewhere in a room waiting for your next set of orders ? why do n't you do that ? helena : well , this arrangement makes your downtime between missions so much more pleasant . jason : this is pleasant to you ? it 's not pleasant to me . helena : well , i do n't suppose it is , but it suits me . it suits me to have you hiding in plain sight . jason : you 're not afraid i 'm gon na turn on you ? helena : you wo n't remember anything as soon as you walk out that door . but before you do , there is another thing that i 'd like you to take care of . nathan : i could , uh , i could call dante , tell him i got caught up . see if he 'll cover for me . maxie : do n't tempt me . i have to get over to my mother 's . can you believe tomorrow is inauguration day and they still have n't declared a winner for the mayor 's race ? nathan : [ sighs ] okay , well , can i see you tonight ? maxie : yeah , you better see me later . text me so we can figure out where we 're gon na go . nathan : someplace other than the metro court ? maxie : you can not still be jealous . nathan : yeah , i can . [ speaks french ] maxie : whatever you said , was it romantic ? nathan : yes , it was . maxie : i hope sam gets to feel this . nathan : you what ? maxie : no ! no ! not with you . no , not ever . you 're reserved for me . nathan : good . glad to hear it . maxie : i just mean [ sighs ] sam and patrick might be getting together , and , i do n't know , i kind of hope it works out for her . i want her to get a fresh start like i did . sometimes you have to get past the pain so you can open your eyes and see what you found , like i found you . jason : sam . sam : jake . jason : [ clears throat ] carly : i , uh , told sam why you were in seeing kevin . sam : yeah , so was he able to hypnotize you ? what did he say ? jason : dr. collins said that my original memories are accurate . they had nothing to do with the faison escape . i was out looking for a job the whole day . carly : i knew it . that 's great . sam : so , what about these flickers that carly says that you were having ? these memories of being the gunman ? jason : dr. collins says it 's the power of suggestion . you put those thoughts in my mind , and my brain , which is still recovering from the accident , just went with it . carly : are you satisfied ? can this please be the end of it , sam ? helena : so , we 're clear on what you 're going to say to samantha ? jason : yes . helena : still , i ca n't be sure that she wo n't drop her accusations . which is why i need you to kill her . nikolas : why am i interested in elq ? i 'm not , not any more than any other company . but i 'm a businessman . never hurts to be aware of the competition . [ cell phone rings ] alexis : mm - hmm . mmm . ah . it 's felicia . i 'm supposed to have a meeting with her about the election . i should probably go . nikolas : go ahead . alexis : all right . love you . nikolas : love you . alexis : hey ! felicia , it 's me . i 'm on my way . lulu : johnny insists he 's innocent . tracy : yes , well , whatever that means to a zacchara . lulu : some judge somewhere was convinced . i mean , it must be true considering julian is now locked up in pentonville . tracy : exactly where he deserves to be for letting luke rot in miscavige for almost a year . lulu : amen . but what i 'm really wondering is how julian and sonny are getting along . i ca n't imagine pentonville is big enough for the both of them . julian : whoever 's posing as luke tried to have michael killed once before . he could do it again , no problem , especially if you 're threatening to expose this guy . sonny : you 're saying this impostor lives at the quartermaines ' ? julian : yeah . sonny : so does michael . if we ca n't call the cops ... what the hell do we do ? fluke : bill eckert again ? huh ? bobbie : luke , i know you do n't want to talk about him , but it 's true . michael : i did a title search on the property . bill is the owner . fluke : that makes no sense ! the man 's been dead for years ! bobbie : i know , but apparently it fell through the cracks . michael : yeah , the , uh , bulk of bill 's estate went to his son , sly . the house was n't in his will , but sly is the presumptive owner . he gave me permission to inspect the property . bobbie : i do n't think jenny or sly is gon na have a problem with michael wanting to build a clinic here . michael : luke , i 'm just trying to do some good for the community , okay ? i do n't want to upset you . look , why do n't we all go somewhere and i can fully explain my plans to you , huh ? fluke : yeah , why do n't we do that ? maybe you can explain to me how bill eckert ended up with title to our house . let 's go . [ next_on ] maxie : no , nathan , you are the problem ! lulu : ( to nikolas ) what is that ? nikolas : what 's what ? press : ( to felicia , with mac ) did you steal the election ? anna : ( on phone , with sloane nearby ) i need you to execute a warrant . luke : ( to duke ) this is such a mess ! alexis : ( to scott ) election tampering ... jordan : ( to shawn , in bed ) i can not stop thinking about what we did , shawn . spencer : ( running into the room and sliding to his knees ) stop !
maxie and nathan engage in a little love in the afternoon during his lunch break . he is a little jealous that she found the bartender at the metro court attractive . he tells her that the bartender 's name is jake doe and that sam thinks he is the gunman that abducted her and shot him . sam tells carly that she thinks jake works for helena . carly says sam is projecting blame onto jake because the cops could n't go after faison because of her . she says sam has been so rampant with her accusations that even jake wonders if he did it or not . jake goes into kevin collins ' office for his appointment and finds helena is there instead . helena tells him that he really was the gunman . she explains that he takes her orders and then forgets what he did . she orders him to tell sam that dr. collins said the flashes he is having are not memories , but images that sam planted by her accusations . she also orders him to kill sam .
<s>[INST] nathan : [ speaks french ] maxie : translation ? nathan : translation -- `` we got to hurry . i only have an hour . `` maxie : i love when you get all demanding , especially in french . ooh ! you know , not that i 'm objecting to sex on your lunch break ... nathan : good . maxie : but you practically kidnapped me . nathan : could n't help myself . want to make sure you only have eyes for me . maxie : as opposed to ? nathan : as opposed to that guy you were checking out at the metro court . maxie : who ? nathan : what ? maxie : did you say something ? nathan : [ speaks french ] jason : hey , dr. collins . thank you for seeing me on such short notice . uh ... helena : well , it 's always a pleasure to see you . carly : i know what you 're accusing jake of , and it 's crap ! sam : i do n't agree . jake shot nathan . he sprung faison from police custody . because of him , jason 's killer is on the loose . carly : based on what information ? you have no evidence ! you ca n't even tell me why jake would do something so heinous ! sam : oh , i do n't know . maybe helena cassadine put him up to it . carly : helena cassadine ? what the hell does she have to do with this ? nikolas : [ sighs ] elq ? lulu : tracy , hi . tracy : hi ! you know , i feel like we never see each other since your dad got rescued . lulu : i know . i was so glad you wanted to meet for lunch . i was actually in the neighborhood doing some shopping after my breakfast here with maxie . tracy : wait a minute . you had breakfast here with maxie ? why did n't you tell me ? we could have gone anywhere . lulu : oh , it 's fine . truth be told , i love their salads . i was hoping that , uh , dad might tag along . tracy : yeah , well , about that . your dad and i had a little [ clears throat ] disagreement , thanks to your aunt bobbie . bobbie : did you hear that crash ? michael : yeah , it sounded like it came from there . bobbie : that 's the door to the basement . michael : all right , i 'm gon na see what that was . um , just get ready to call the cops just in case . bobbie : just in case what ? ! michael : just in case whatever 's done there walks on two legs and does n't like visitors . it 's okay . i 'll check it out . bobbie : are you crazy ? ! there could be a psychotic killer down in that basement ! fluke : poom ! oh , it feels good . so good to let your aggressions out now and then , do n't you think ? poom ! yeah , i do n't get nearly enough chance to exercise my demons . what do you say , puke ? shall i take a couple of swings at your head before i bash your sister 's brains in ? hmm ? sonny : you ready to give up a name , spit it out . julian : i ca n't tell you what the guy 's name is , all right ? all i can tell you is ... [ chuckles ] ... is that he 's got luke spencer 's face . [ sighs ] sonny : what the hell you talking about ? fluke : batter up ! luke : [ muffling ] fluke : what 's the matter ? you a coward ? you better hold still , you coward . i have to get just the right angle here in order to get maximum torque . i 'm gon na put your lights out ... and crack your skull open on the first swing . more humane that way . so , here we go . one ... two ... three ! f m tracy : thank you . lulu : what did aunt bobbie do ? tracy : well , she had brunch with your dad on new year 's day , and she brought up a couple subjects that luke did n't like . lulu : such as ? tracy : bill eckert , for one . fluke : hah ! a swing and a miss ! [ laughs ] [ laughing ] oh , god , you should see yourself . you 're trembling like a virgin at a nudist rodeo . you really thought i was gon na bash your head in , did n't you ? luke : [ muffled ] sick son of a bitch ! fluke : nah , nah . no , it 's barbara jean 's brains i want to splatter against the wall . so , come on , louis . let 's go find her . what do you say ? louis . that 's short for louisville slugger , you know . of course you know . this is your bat . this is that beloved relic of your idyllic childhood . yeah . louis and i are going upstairs now . it stinks down here . luke : [ muffling ] i swear to you , i 'll kill you ! fluke : say what ? [ laughs ] michael : okay , what are you talking about ? what psychotic killer ? bobbie : have n't you learned anything ? when you hear a creepy noise , you do n't go check it out ! you run away and you call the police ! michael : right , i think you 've been watching a little too many horror movies there , grandma . bobbie : [ sighs ] yeah , well , i ca n't help it , you know ? [ sighs ] between josslyn 's corn movie and lucas and brad 's love of `` american horror story , `` i am inundated . but there 's one thing i know for sure . because whoever goes to check out the creepy sound first becomes the killer 's first victim . michael : you do know those are n't documentaries , right ? i promise you there 's no psychotic killer in the basement . julian : look , i was n't gon na tell you this 'cause i thought i was safe in here , but after those meatheads tried to kill me , obviously i 'm not . sonny : okay , get to the point . julian : faison was just a decoy . so this guy who 's been impersonating luke for these last few months , the impostor who married tracy , who tried to take over elq , who 's been living luke 's life , he 's still living it . helena : have a glance at it if you wish . and then finally tell me that you are ready to take up the mantle to which you were born . alexis : a penny stock for your thoughts ? sam : i have reason to believe that helena masterminded faison 's escape . spencer said that he saw her on the docks . carly : spencer cassadine ? you 're now questioning little children ? sam : he is my cousin , and he told his father that he saw helena on the docks and that faison was there and he jumped into a boat for parts unknown . carly : spencer saw faison ? sam : no , for once , helena did the right thing and actually sent him home , but the police believe that faison escaped by boat after the gunman set him free . so , if jake was the one who grabbed me hostage , then i think that he 's acting on helena 's orders . carly : let me get this straight . you now think jake works for helena cassadine ? helena : you 're active . jason : i 'm what ? what does that mean ? helena : oh , i am so pleased that you do n't recall . that means that your conditioning is working perfectly . jason : my conditioning ? what are you talking about ? where 's dr. collins ? helena : oh , he 's been delayed . allow me to introduce myself . jason : helena cassadine . yeah , i know who you are . i met you on thanksgiving , then i saw your picture in the paper the next day , and elizabeth explained everything about you , what you 've done to her family . helena : we had another meeting the day after thanksgiving . you completed a very important mission for me . do you remember ? maxie : [ sighs ] okay . now that we 're a little more coherent ... nathan : coherence is overrated . maxie : again ? ! it has n't even been close to 20 minutes ! nathan : well , i 've only got an hour for lunch . i want to make the most of it . besides , i do n't want your attention wandering . maxie : [ scoffs ] you know , i just got finished telling lulu that i did not think that you were a jealous guy , and what ? you 're getting a little possessive 'cause you heard me say that i think the bartender at metro court 's cute ? nathan : [ speaks french ] maxie : english ? nathan : yes . i am getting all caveman because you were checking out that bartender . maxie : well , i think it 's super - sexy when you get all caveman , but you have no reason to be jealous . i never even met that guy . nathan : so , i should only be jealous of guys you have met ? hmm ? maxie : you should n't be jealous , period . although he was super - attractive . i did tell lulu he looks more like a soldier than a bartender . nathan : you could be closer to the truth than you realize . maxie : truth ? what truth ? nathan : the guy 's name is jake doe . sam is pretty sure that he 's the guy who held her hostage and shot me . jason : i did n't complete any mission for you , lady . helena : you do n't remember because you were ordered not to . jason : okay . you know what i do remember ? you 're a criminal , so i 'm gon na go call the cops , let them deal with you . just wait right there . helena : do n't take another step . jason : why ca n't i leave ? helena : because you were ordered not to . you work for me . jason : i do n't work for you . helena : well , if you insist on being literal , you are an asset . you were conditioned to take my orders . jason : why ? helena : because you are the best at what you do . now , take a seat . we need to have a little chat about samantha morgan . sam : i think it 's possible that jake is working with helena , yes . carly : that 's crazy . sam : what do you mean , crazy ? you do n't even know the guy . we do n't even know his real name ! carly : the man has a brain injury , sam ! hell , he was hit by a car ! no , correction -- he was run down by an suv ! sam : an suv ! i know ! i 'm not saying that the accident was fake , but the memory loss -- that sure as hell can be faked . i mean , it 's an easy way to dodge questions about his past . carly : he 's not dodging anything ! sam : really ? how well do you really know this guy ? carly : i know the guy does n't have any money . i know he was working for me on new year 's eve and taking out the trash the next morning . i know that i had to comp him a room because he did n't have a place to stay . sam : [ sighs ] carly : so -- so why would a guy need all that if he has such a sweet deal with helena cassadine ? sam : why ? because maybe that 's his cover ! carly : cover for what ? ! what is he covering for ? ! sam : i do n't know ! i 'm trying to figure that out ! come on , carly ! you 're not stupid . think about it . first he was shacking up with elizabeth , and now he 's cozying up to you ! carly : he 's not cozying up with me . outside of a job , jake has asked me for nothing . sam : yeah , because he 's not stupid . he wants everyone to like him . carly : come on , sam . this is n't about jake . it 's about you . sam : me ? carly : yeah . it 's about you . sam : [ scoffs ] carly : faison escaped . the man who killed jason is free , and you 're the reason the cops could n't go after the gunman . sam : [ chuckles ] really ? you think that i blame myself ? carly : i know you 're blaming yourself . you should n't , but yes , you are . you ca n't accept that faison 's probably on the other side of the planet , so you 're putting your misplaced anger and grief on an innocent man . sam : he is not innocent . he shot a cop , and he set faison free . carly : you have no proof of any of this . you have no proof whatsoever , sam . but you 've convinced yourself that this is true . and now you have jake wondering if he did it . sam : wait a minute . what ? what did you just say ? jake is wondering if he did it or not ? nikolas : alexis , you caught me dealing with a business matter . alexis : yeah , i recognize stock certificates when i see them . so , they from a new company you 're investing in ? nikolas : yeah , something like that . alexis : well , not only am i a cassadine . i am also your attorney , so if you need some help ... nikolas : no , i appreciate the offer , but i 'm still in the early stages , investigating all the possibilities . when i know more , i 'll let you know . alexis : okay , well , just so you know , i 'm happy to help . nikolas : thank you . so , what brings you by ? alexis : well , i just want to check in on you and see that you 're not too lonely now that britt has ... nikolas : what ? fled the authorities with her sociopath father ? alexis : well , i was n't gon na put it quite like that , but now that you have , how are you ? nikolas : angry at myself for letting her back into my life . alexis : i know how you feel . nikolas : i let spencer believe that she could be part of our family . he 's devastated that she 's gone . i ... i do n't know . i guess i - i never realized just how much he wants a mother . alexis : aww . well , i 'm sorry , but you know , spencer is so resilient , and there 's so many people who love him . nikolas : yeah . alexis : he 'll be okay . nikolas : if he ever talks to me again . alexis : oh , you 're getting the silent treatment ? i hate that . so , what have you been doing ? you just been hanging around the house with no one to talk to ? nikolas : no , there always seems to be someone coming or going . alexis : hmm . nikolas : always happy to see you , however . alexis : sure you are . nikolas : i should be asking you how you are . i 'm sure you 've got a lot on your mind with julian jerome behind bars . sonny : wait a minute . are you telling me that miscavige was staged ? is that what you 're saying ? julian : i did n't know it at the time , all right ? i really thought that alexis and i were saving luke . but this impostor guy , he found out about our plan , and he changed places with luke again . sonny : how could he have known ? julian : i 'm telling you , this guy has ears and eyes everywhere . he 's working with faison . he 's working with jerry jacks . he 's working with helena cassadine . sonny : what is this ? the league of psychopaths ? is that what we 're dealing with ? julian : yeah , he 's got some powerful allies . i 'm -- i 'm telling you , this guy is dangerous , okay ? he wants to take over our territories . he 's in a prime position to do it . i mean , he 's settling in at the quartermaine mansion . he 's -- he 's making all his plans from there . i 'm telling you , this guy -- [ scoffs ] he 's our true enemy , okay ? he 's armed and he 's dangerous . bobbie : luke ! michael : you scared the crap out of me . fluke : well , you startled me , too . what the hell are you two doing here ? bobbie : i think the better question is , what the hell are you doing here ? lulu : i only vaguely remember the story of bill eckert . i think my family was in hiding when he was in port charles . he 's the guy that took the bullet that was meant for my dad ? tracy : died in luke 's arms . lulu : well , i guess that 's why dad was upset when bobbie mentioned him . tracy : that part i understand completely . it 's the rest of it that 's troubling . lulu : what do you mean ? tracy : well , you know your dad does n't like to talk about his childhood , not his parents , his other sister , their life together -- lulu : i 'm sorry . wait a minute . what other sister ? sam : did jake tell you something ? did he confess to you ? carly : no , he did n't confess , sam . there 's nothing to confess to . but you and jake were in the pcpd , right , where you were taken hostage , and you kept hammering him , telling him that he was the one who grabbed you . it flipped him out to the point that he had a false memory . sam : what makes you so sure it was false ? helena : shall we talk about samantha ? jason : she 's accusing me of taking her hostage at the pcpd , using her to liberate a prisoner . helena : faison , yes ? jason : yes . i told her it could n't be me because i was out looking for a job , but , uh ... i get this ... flicker . it 's like a memory of grabbing sam . helena : describe the memory . jason : just -- just snapshots . i ca n't tell you what happened right before or right after , but ... the image is in my head . it seems real . helena : why consult dr. collins ? jason : so he can examine me . tell me that i 'm innocent . but i 'm not innocent , am i ? helena : you ... are guilty as sin . nikolas : i spoke with sam . she filled me in on the situation with julian . alexis : ah , yes . the situation . nikolas : so , he confessed to a - a murder someone already went to prison for ? alexis : yeah , another surprise . julian claims that he killed anthony zacchara , although i do n't know why i 'm surprised anymore , because this is the same man that knew that luke was in an asylum and did n't lift a finger to help him . sonny : if this guy is n't faison , who the hell is he ? julian : [ sighs ] i thought i knew , but i do n't . i do n't even know his name . after luke 's supposed rescue , i really thought that my boss was faison in a mask . but then this whoever impostor , he approaches me again . sonny : was this -- was this before or after he escaped from prison -- faison ? julian : after . sonny : okay , what if -- what if it was just , you know , faison all over again ? you know what i mean ? julian : [ scoffs ] sonny : no , i 'm just saying . julian : no , look , i 'm telling you this guy that was threatening me was definitely not faison in a mask . i do n't care how high - tech it was . look , i do n't know what to tell you . this guy -- he has luke spencer 's face . sonny : how is that possible ? julian : no idea . sonny : okay , let 's say it was the impostor that was rescued at the loony bin at , uh , you know , on thanksgiving . where 's the real luke spencer right now ? fluke : well , since our non - breakfast new year 's day , i 've been doing a lot of thinking . you brought up some bad memories for me , barbara . it upset me . bobbie : i picked up on that when you stormed out without eating . fluke : well , i did n't expect that out of you . you blindsided me . we never talk about the past . what do you know ? michael : nothing specific . i mean , i know that you and grandma did n't have the happiest childhood . fluke : [ chuckles ] that 's putting it mildly . anyway , i decided to confront the ugliness face to face . and then guess what ? i found this old key . bobbie : me , too . [ chuckles ] who would have thought we 'd both hold on to our last connection with this place ? fluke : [ inhales deeply ] the past has a stronger hold on me than i thought . i 've been doing a lot of reminiscing about the bad , old days . you know what i mean ? lulu : what are you saying ? you 're saying that my dad and aunt bobbie have another sister ? tracy : you did n't know ? lulu : no ! this is the first i 'm hearing of it ! tracy : well , i never met the woman . i did hear my mother mention this sister patricia a couple of times , and i 'm assuming that she did not move to florida with luke and bobbie . lulu : well , what happened to patricia ? you think she 's still alive ? tracy : i have absolutely no idea . when i brought it up to your father , he just shut down . should have dropped the subject , but i wanted to get him to acknowledge his childhood . instead , he said he needed to take a walk , get some air , and clear his head . i hope that 's what he 's doing right now . bobbie : yeah , i know what you mean . soon as we pulled up in front of this house , i was swamped with memories of things that i have n't thought about in decades . and then ... came here , i saw mama and dad 's chair and transported me back to our childhood . so , yes , i do know the power that the past can hold . fluke : i knew you 'd understand . bobbie : that explains what you 're doing here . why were you in the basement ? maxie : believe me , i want t inc p the only fda approved , maxie : believe me , i want the guy who shot you arrested and prosecuted . i mean , talk about a crime , marking up that gorgeous body . nathan : the criminal charges are for shooting a cop . maxie : i know . but you 're , like , a sexy cop , so there should be additional charges . just not against that jake guy . i do n't think he did it . nathan : how do you know if you 've never even met the guy ? maxie : okay , if faison paid you to break him out of jail , would you hang around to get a bartending job in the same city where that jailbreak happened ? or would you be laying on a beach somewhere where there is n't an extradition treaty ? nathan : okay , you make a good point . according to dante , sam 's convinced . he 's the guy that held her hostage . maxie : i think it 's more complicated than that . how much do you really know about sam 's husband , jason ? nathan : well , i know that he was an enforcer for sonny corinthos , and i know that faison killed him . maxie : sam 's had a really rough life . i think jason was the first person who made her feel stable and gave her a home . she really loved him . and right when they got their son back , jason was gone . they never even found his body . grief like that , it does n't really go away . you just find a way to live with it and move on , but the anger is still there . and you want so bad to ... put a face to your loss , you know , find someone who 's responsible . carly : jake has suffered a traumatic brain injury . sam : mm - hmm . carly : he ca n't even remember his own name . and you 're badgering him , insisting that he did this terrible thing . you planted this in his head , and now he 's remembering things that are n't even true ! sam : what do you mean , they are n't ? how -- how can you be so sure ? carly : because jake was out looking for a job at the time of faison 's escape , okay ? he remembers everywhere he went , every single person he talked to . you ca n't be in two places at once , can you ? sam : you can if you 're lying about job hunting , carly . yes , you can . carly : okay . well , jake is in kevin collins ' office right now proving he 's an innocent man . jason : so , i took sam and i shot that cop ? helena : you executed your orders perfectly , as i knew you would . nikolas : i 'm sorry about julian . believe me , i know something about having feelings for someone that will never be the person you need them to be . it 's very difficult . alexis : yeah , well , now julian is olivia 's problem . nikolas : olivia falconeri ? alexis : yeah . they slept together on new year 's eve . did n't you hear ? nikolas : no , i must have missed that bulletin on the local news . alexis : well , they were running around the metro court half - dressed . i 'm surprised channel 7 did n't break in regular programming . [ sighs ] anyway , i 'm dating ned now . nikolas : yes , sam mentioned that , too . going well ? alexis : yes , yeah . yep . really good . we have a lot in common . nikolas : sure . alexis : and , you know , we were almost married . nikolas : right , right . you ran out of the church like it was on fire . alexis : we 're more mature now . and we 're just dating . we 're not -- we 're not getting married . nikolas : [ laughs ] i 'm not the one who mentioned it . you did . alexis : hmm . yeah , okay . uh , well , he , uh , he 's a great guy . he 's not a criminal . he 's also an upstanding businessman . nikolas : so , ned is back at elq ? alexis : well , michael 's running it , but ned is helping out . nikolas : really ? alexis : mm - hmm . he has a much more active role now . nikolas : what about tracy ? lulu : so you and dad have this fight ? tracy : ah , ah , ah , ah ! minor disagreement . lulu : minor disagreement . tracy : thank you . lulu : how have things been between the two of you otherwise ? tracy : well , i guess you would know if you bothered to visit every once in a while . lulu : oh ! i was giving you space so you could get reacquainted . tracy : thank you for the space . and to answer your question , things have been really good with me and luke . he 's getting back in the swing of things , and he 's like his old self . i ca n't tell you how much i missed it . lulu : that 's great . tracy : it is . maybe every once in awhile he 's ... well , a little distant . but not to worry . it 's nothing compared to what i went through when i was living with that impostor . fluke : i was just taking a look around . i found this down there . remember ? my old louisville slugger ? bobbie : yeah . i ca n't believe that thing is still here . michael : yeah , we , um , we heard a crash downstairs . are you okay ? fluke : oh , yeah , no . [ chuckling ] i just , uh , i broke a whiskey jug getting this off the shelf . do you remember how much i used to love baseball ? [ sighs ] how much fun we used to have when the old man was n't around ? you would throw the ball , and i 'd smack the hell out of it ? [ chuckles ] bobbie : well , i do remember you had to climb that tree out back a time or two to get the ball back . fluke : yeah . i would n't mind taking a couple of swings right now . but it would n't be right with michael here . that 'd be kind of rude . we 'll have to do our batting practice some other time . [ sniffs ] so , what are you doing here ? you 're reminiscing , too ? drag your grandson along for the ride ? michael : uh , actually , no . i want to take a look at the place . i have big plans for the property . sonny : you know what ? whether luke is alive or dead , you knew your real boss was holding him prisoner , and you kept your mouth shut ! julian : okay , this guy is n't exactly a reasonable dude , all right ? i 'm sorry i 'm not gon na risk my entire family to go against him . sonny : i do n't want to hear excuses . i 'm just praying that luke is alive , 'cause if he is , he 's gon na need some help , right ? julian : right . sonny : you said the impostor 's still out there , so we got to stop him . julian : that would be difficult under the best of circumstances , which clearly these are not ! sonny : okay , i hate to say this ... julian : [ sighs ] sonny : we got to go to the cops . julian : we ca n't do that . alexis : what do you mean , tracy ? nikolas : where does she stand in relation to elq ? now that ned 's back , i assume his mother is , too . alexis : no , actually . she does n't hold any shares in the company anymore . nikolas : why ? what happened ? alexis : she got tricked into handing them over , both hers and alice 's , to jerry jacks . nikolas : je -- you 're telling me that jerry jacks has the actual original stock certificates ? alexis : you know jerry . he 's nothing if not thorough . he even had someone hand - deliver them to him in europe . why are you so interested in this ? tracy : enough about me and luke . i want to hear about you . lulu : well , i 'm great . rocco 's great . dante 's great . tracy : [ sighs ] that is an embarrassment of riches . lulu : i am beyond blessed . although dante is n't so happy that johnny zacchara is running around town again . tracy : yes , well , luke showed me the newspaper article , and we got to reminisce about how johnny tried to frame us for murder . lulu : [ laughs ] i do n't think dante 's any happier about this than you are . they had a little run - in . right here , actually . tracy : they had a run - in ? lulu : johnny came straight here when he was released to celebrate . i just happened to be here . i had no idea that he had been released . i got over my shock , and then we were talking . tracy : oh . chatting with a convict . lulu : he was exonerated . dante did n't care about that detail , either . tracy : good for dante . lulu : honestly , i think he 's a little jealous of my history with johnny . tracy : first of all , lulu , that was not a golden time in your life , and you would do us all a big favor if you do n't revisit it . and second of all , i think dante is smart enough to not be threatened by that degenerate anthony 's son . even in death , that man is nothing but trouble . lulu : i loathed anthony , but it 's not his fault he was murdered . tracy : something 's fishy about it . all of a sudden , johnny is innocent and julian jerome is guilty ? lulu : i know . something seems strange . tracy : yeah . really strange . trust me . there 's more to that story . julian : come on , now . the cops ? they ca n't help us . this guy is out of control . as our earlier run - in with those goons proved , okay ? he 's obviously using johnny zacchara 's contacts in prison here . sonny : two are dead , and you know what happened to the other one . julian : so what ? we got rid of two or three . big deal . guess what ? he 's got a million more cockroaches where they came from . with zacchara under his thumb ... sonny : mm - hmm . julian : ... he 's got a direct line to all these guys . sonny : we 'll figure out another way . julian : okay . this guy thought i betrayed him . sonny : right . julian : he tried to shoot lucas , okay ? he tried to have my son killed , and he did the same to you . sonny : what ? julian : you remember one night a hitman showed up at michael 's apartment trying to put a bullet in his face ? sonny : yeah . julian : guess who sent him . fluke : a clinic , huh ? michael : yeah , um , our original location fell through , but this one fits our needs thanks to the proximity to the waterfront . bobbie : do n't you think it 's a wonderful idea ? fluke : i do n't know how i feel about it . you know , michael , i came to you and offered help with elq , and you told me to buzz off . you said you did n't want to work with anybody whose face was the same as the guy who 'd given you so much trouble . you turned me down , michael . why would i let you tear down our house to build anything ? michael : well , with all due respect , it 's not really up to you . this house belongs to your cousin , bill eckert . carly : i got jake an appointment with kevin collins . he can hypnotize jake . he can pull out the true memories . and jake will find out what he did or did not do . sam : oh , oh , that sounds like a good idea . carly : yeah , it is , because when jake comes out of that office , we 're gon na prove you wrong . jason : you say i 've been conditioned to do what you tell me ? it must be true , because there 's nothing more i want to do than leave this room and i ca n't . helena : not until i tell you to . jason : so i just do whatever you say , right ? carry out your missions , shoot whoever you want shot , and then i just forget ?

hope explains to brooke that she was upset when the woman stranger confronted her and called her an adulteress , but she really ca n't blame her so she 's not going to let it ruin her life . perhaps not , but ridge walks in with a rag magazine splashed with the photo of liam and hope kissing and branded hypocrite . the same at bill 's office as he shows it to liam . bill tells him there will be repercussions so they do n't have time for anything else . they need to move and move fast ; put out their own spin on the story in their own mainstream publications . sitting alone in aspen , steffy sees the photo from a link bill sent her . hope apologizes and says this never should have happened ; they should have been more discreet ( you think ? ) ridge says this is gon na affect the company so they need to rally the troops . the first thing hope needs to do is move out of liam 's house . brooke and ridge are at odds with this ; she does n't think this is fair . maybe hope should have thought about this before going public with kissing a married man . she 's taken an open stance and the public is not going to accept this hypocrisy so there goes the hope for the future line right down the drain . hope says they will have to go into damage control because she is not going to move out of liam 's house or apologize for loving him . liam interrupts the meeting and adds his side . ridge wonders if he has considered at all what this is doing to his wife . all due respect aside , liam says he needs to talk to hope alone . he tells her that she has done nothing wrong . madison pops in and says she ca n't hold the press off much longer ; hope needs to make a statement . liam tries to convince her that she is still the same woman that she was last night , so she ca n't worry abut what other people think . they are committed and that is all that matters .

's stunts . hope : and now ? bo : this fire has an amateur 's prints all over it -- clumsy way the lock was jimmied , no use of an accelerant . if someone was out for revenge or they wanted to kill us , they would have burned our house down to the ground . but if someone was acting in the heat of the moment -- hope : then chelsea 's a likely suspect . bo : yeah , if i 'm going by the book . but if i 'm going as her father ... damn it , hope , i wish i had those instincts -- the ones that say , `` stick by your kid because you know in your heart she would n't do something like this . `` i try , but ... but they 're just not there . hope : she has n't given you many reasons to trust her . bo : she 's tried -- tried hard these last few months -- but what happened today probably set her back big - time . hope : what will you do when you find her ? bo : i 'll hug her . tell her that i love her and that i 'm sorry i made her doubt that . hopefully , that will give her the strength to tell us the truth and not hide it like she usually does . i 'm out of here . hope : good luck .

[ scene_break ] billie : [ sighs ] here it is . the mistake that cost me my relationship with my daughter . hope : for what it 's worth , i do n't think you 're a bad mother . billie : thanks , but i think the facts speak for themselves . hope : you 're not a saint . none of us are . but you know what , billie ? you got to look at these facts . i mean , all of a sudden , you find out you have a teenage daughter that you never knew you had . you put your whole life on hold so you could focus on chelsea and her needs , and you know what ? that says an awful lot . billie : thank you . but the funny thing is chelsea and i were just starting to learn to trust each other , and now she 'll never trust me again . and ironically , since i found out about the fire , i do n't think i can trust her . [ scene_break ] abby : so how did the fire start ? bo : it 's still under investigation . nick : did the whole house go up ? bo : no , the fire was confined to part of the living room . it was put out before any structural damage was done . chelsea : what about the baby ? bo : hope got your baby sister out of the house in time . chelsea : okay . so everybody 's cool . accidents happen . there 's no reason for me to stick around . bo : it was no accident . it was arson . chelsea : oh , my god . who would do something like that ? i mean , seriously , it 's so sick and twist -- oh , my god . you think i did it .

[ scene_break ] philip : that 's a nice offer , mom , but maybe you should run it past lucas and sami first . it might be a little uncomfortable if i showed up . i 've barely talked to billie since i 've been back . kate : billie is your sister . philip : like that makes a difference ? kate : yes , that makes all the difference . family is where you 're always taken in . do n't forget that . philip : thanks , but no thanks . i 'm gon na deal with this myself . i do n't need anyone 's help . kate : oh , please . would you stop being such a martyr ? philip : well , this is the place for it . kate : oh , cut it out . come on , you 've been talking for months now about how you want a family for claire , and here i am , handing it to you -- handing a family to you , gift - wrapped , and you 're just too pigheaded to accept it . i believe that claire is coming back to you , and when she does , you 're going to need a family . you 're gon na need help , and you 're gon na need support . so come to dinner tomorrow . that 's laying the foundation -- laying the foundation before it 's too late . look , tomorrow night , 7 : 00 , chez rouge , okay ? i want to see you there . [ scene_break ] hope : can i make a suggestion ? billie : go ahead . hope : why do n't we just wait until bo gets back ? he already has to say is to have us jumping to conclusions about chelsea and the fire -- billie : we ca n't help it , and neither can you . the minute we found out about the fire , we both thought it was chelsea . hope : bad habit . billie : tell me about it . hope : billie , look , i really do n't know what happened tonight , and it certainly does n't take much to point fingers , especially now , knowing how hurt and upset chelsea is . but , billie ... life really is too short to keep holding on to the anger and the hurt . you got to let it go , otherwise the bottle 's gon na be the only thing left keeping you company . and you do n't want that . billie : no , i do n't . hope : then start forgiving yourself , not punishing yourself . let 's both shake those old bad habits together . come on . [ scene_break ] chelsea : i do n't believe this . you find out i knew about nick and mom 's disgusting affair , and the first thing you think of is that i 'd set your house on fire ? trying to kill another brady child -- because that 's what i do when i 'm pissed , right ? well , congratulations , detective , you solved it ! and in record time , too . bo : would you stop it ? stop it . this has nothing to do with nick or your mother , and it sure as hell has nothing to do with zack . this has to do with a crime that was committed at my house tonight that could have taken everything from me . now , i need to know exactly when you were there , where else you went , and who you were with -- not the version according to chelsea , but the god 's honest truth .

this is going to be good . opal : hey , there . what gives ? last time i saw you , jack was on the mend . now i find you staring off into space . erica : yeah , well , joe martin 's in with -- with jack right now . opal : and ? erica : and -- and what ? opal : well , i mean , thanks to that matching blood donor , he 's going to be ok , right ? erica : yes , thank god . i mean , joe says that jack 's going to be fine . opal : well , then why the long face ? i mean , you ought to be doing nip - ups singing whoop - de - do . a miracle like that does n't come along every day , you know ? erica : opal , this miracle may also be a disaster . jack 's donor was greenlee . opal : greenlee ? erica : mm - hmm . opal : well , is n't that a kick in the head -- i mean , that jack 's savior should be your worst neighbor . erica : and probably jack 's daughter . opal : um , wait a minute , i did n't quite catch that . erica : oh , it is no coincidence . no wild coincidence whatsoever . opal , i think that jack is greenlee 's father . opal : well , clear a space . david : it 's all right here , ok ? joe martin assembled an inferior team to work on my daughter . kenny : you and your wife did n't know who was assigned to perform your daughter 's surgery ? david : yes , we did . but joe convinced anna to keep me out of the process . kenny : still , you knew their names , their reputations . david : yes , of course i knew their reputations , which is exactly why i opposed it adamantly right from the beginning . but joe led anna to believe that this pacemaker surgery was necessary . kenny : is n't that a medically sound opinion ? david : no , not -- not in leora 's case . i told joe over and over again that leora needed to gain strength . but he did not want her to gain strength . he did not want her to survive . kenny : you want to file criminal charges ? david : no . listen , our d.a . , jackson montgomery , is in joe martin 's pocket -- i mean , old family friends and all that garbage . so joe knows the d.a . will protect him . montgomery hates me just as much as the martins do . kenny : that 's quite a theory . david : it 's not a theory , it 's a fact . and this hand - tooled autopsy report will prove it . kenny : it looks legitimate to me . david : yeah , well , looks can be deceiving . i 'm telling you , kenny , this -- this is a cover - up , and it 's dictated by joe martin . kenny : ok , so criminal action 's out of the question . do you want to pursue a civil suit ? malpractice ? david : i want joe martin and his son tad to be penniless and disgraced . kenny : what does tad martin have to do with this ? david : look , just -- just take the time to read this , ok ? it 's all right there . tad is the one that kept me out of that o.r . so you find something . i do n't care -- i do n't give a damn what you do , but you find something that 'll stick , all right ? wrongful death , conspiracy to commit murder . you just find something that 'll make him pay for what he did . kenny : i 'll read this . i 'll get your take on the incident . david : if tad had let me go in that o.r . , leora would still be alive today . kenny : but you were n't part of the surgical team . you were n't cleared to operate . david : kenny , you listen to me . joe martin has been jealous of my skill from the second i stepped foot in this town . now , when dixie martin fell in love with me , that is exactly what pushed tad and joe over the edge . from that point on , they 've been trying to find anything , any opportunity that they can to destroy my life . well , anna handed it to them when she agreed to the surgery , ok ? so you find something . you find something that 's going to make them regret this . you find something that 's going to make them suffer , do you hear me ? kenny : but if we ca n't win ? david : we ca n't win ? what are you talking about ? ca n't prove the truth ? are you telling me that you ca n't get justice ? you ca n't find peace for my little girl ? wait a minute . you do n't have the guts to go after the martins . they have you running scared . tad : we 're not talking about me , james . jamie : i am . tad : all right , fine . you want to know , then ask . i will tell you because i know firsthand how stupid i was . jamie : dad -- tad : i screwed up a lot . i hurt a lot of people -- mostly myself . and , gee , if it 's all right with you , as your dad , i would love to spare you that . jamie : dad , i ca n't even compare to your record , ok ? not even if i tried . tad : that 's just it , james . you 're not going to try . jamie : will you chill out ? my only sins are getting smashed at a party , yelling at adam chandler , and kissing a prostitute , ok ? tad : it 's what 's coming around the next bend in the road that 's got me concerned , especially after one of your keg parties . jamie : so this is the speech about drugs and unwanted pregnancies ? tad : well , would it hurt you to hear it ? come on , your brother 's already had his problems with drugs . jamie : that 's his trip , not mine , ok ? tad : ok , so , fine , let 's talk about your trip , ok ? your -- your habits , and the next party , or the party after that , and shots are involved , ok , and you are away from home . you got to get behind the wheel of a car , and the fact is it screws with your judgment , your reflexes . all it takes is one tree . jamie : dad , mom has n't gotten over little laura being hit by a drunk . i did n't drive home last night . i swear . mom would kill me if i ever did that . tad : do me a favor . while you 're out there , trying on your life for size , just remember one thing . it 's always the little things , the stupid things that do n't even seem important at the moment that can destroy your life . jamie : i get it . i get it , ok ? tad : be careful . [ phone rings ] tad : hello ? yeah . hang on , he 's right here . it 's never for me anymore . jamie : hello ? hey , elizabeth . yeah , it 's cool . yeah , of course i would . tonight ? yeah , yeah , that 'd be fun . all right , cool . yeah , yeah . bye . dad , if we 're done here , i 'm going to take off . tad : to hook up with this elizabeth ? jamie : huh ? tad : what do you think , they came up with sex last week ? i 'm not so far - gone i do n't recognize a come - on , even when i only hear one half of the conversation . jamie : you think she 's offering me sex ? cool . [ noise ] carlos : what 's that ? greenlee : the point of no return passing by . carlos : i 'm serious . greenlee : you think i 'm not ? carlos : shh , listen . [ footsteps ] greenlee : you think it 's a robber ? carlos : it could be . get dressed . greenlee : oh , my god . get behind the counter ! get -- carlos : who 's there ? woman : carlos , is that you ? carlos ? carlos : yeah , it 's me . greenlee : who 's that ? carlos : mrs. lacey . greenlee : as in mrs. lacey of lacey 's ? carlos : yes . diane , i 'll come to you . greenlee : `` diane `` ? oh , god . oh , god . carlos : diane ? diane : what are you still doing here ? greenlee : oh , god . carlos : i got locked in . diane : oh , no ! i 'm so sorry . greenlee : hi . diane : well , i see you have found some of the comforts of home . you 're nothing if not resourceful , carlos . hello , ms. -- greenlee : dupres . greenlee dupres . diane : right . i believe we 've met . greenlee : several times . diane : uh - huh . carlos : of course , we 'll clean up the mess we 've made . greenlee : and i 'm buying the dress . i always intended to , believe me . diane : oh , i do . i 'm just embarrassed you got locked in . carlos : we made the best of it . diane : indeed you did , dear . well , i 'm glad i forgot the employee awards for the company picnic . otherwise , the two of you might have been stuck here until tomorrow . greenlee : oh . not that . diane : carlos , why do n't you come to the office with me ? i 'll pick up what i need , and i 'll give you the new security codes so this ca n't happen again . greenlee : and -- and i 'll stay here and i 'll tidy up . and i 'll write you a check for the dress . diane : accept it as a souvenir . i would n't have my carlos pay for anything . greenlee : oh -- your carlos ? carlos : we go way back . diane : carlos has been invaluable to me . wear the dress in good health . opal : greenlee is jack 's daughter ? no , that ca n't be . erica : well , her blood type matched his rare phenotype . and the chances of that happening are about one in 10,000 if the parties are not related . opal : well , still , one in 10,000 -- i mean , that 's no big deal . how come you got to jump to the conclusion that she 's his daughter ? erica : well , i did n't jump . i was pushed by mary smythe . mary smythe suggested very strongly , very pointedly that i find out who the donor was for jack so that the person could be rewarded . and of course when i found out it was greenlee , well , i just assumed that of course , you know , mary wanted to cash in on it -- you know , make points with jackson , points with the town -- `` my daughter saved jackson montgomery 's life . `` opal : well , that still does n't point to him being the daddy . erica : look , opal , i was under the impression that mary smythe and jack were just , you know , casual acquaintances from the country club or whatever . mary smythe told me that they knew each other well . opal : `` well `` ? ew . that sound you hear is my stomach doing cartwheels . i mean , the thought of mary smythe and jack -- our jack . erica : yeah . they had an affair . opal : oh . stranger than fiction . you have n't had a chance to dance this around with jack at all ? erica : no . he has n't regained consciousness yet . opal : i got a feeling that when he does , he 's going to wish he had n't . joe : erica , good news . jack 's awake and he 's asking for you . erica : oh . opal : well , that 's something , at least -- i mean , that he 's saying your name . erica : joe , you mean that he -- he 's ready for visitors ? joe : indeed . just do n't get him worked up . erica : no . opal : good luck . erica : thank you . thank you , joe . jack : what , you 're not happy to see me ? erica : jack . i love you . i love you so much . anna : this really was n't necessary . sean : yeah , well , only seemed right . anna : and the donation is very kind . thank you . i appreciate it . officer : it 's -- it 's good to have you back in charge . second officer : well , we should all get back to work , huh ? anna : yeah , yeah . sean : right , right . anna : thanks , guys . [ knock on door ] anna : yeah ? yes , come in , come in . aidan . aidan : working too hard already ? anna : yeah , i am . trying to get up to speed . aidan : are you sure this is a good idea , coming back to work so soon ? anna : oh , yes , very sure . i need the distraction . aidan : well , could n't you just run off to an island in the pacific or something ? anna : no . could you ? aidan : no . anna : how are you ? i heard about maria . aidan : well , i knew her memory was returning . and when it did -- anna : she 'd probably go back with edmund . aidan : yeah . well , let 's face it , the odds were in his favor , really . anna : it happened so fast , though . aidan : i know . there 's nothing that can be done . anna : you feel like the woman you knew has entirely disappeared and aidan : now is entirely maria . but let 's not talk about that . let 's talk about you . how are you doing ? [ knock on door ] anna : i -- yes , come in . ok . i 'm going to need -- sean : chief ? anna : yeah ? sean : there 's someone out there you might want to see . anna : oh . hold on a second . aidan : all right . anna : i 'll be right back . thanks . man : the room 's destroyed . i got a better chance of renting out a bomb crater than that room . officer : have you got an inventory , mr. wolfe ? mr. wolfe : what 's to inventory ? there 's not a piece of furniture worth burning . even the mirror 's smashed . officer : seven years ' bad luck , huh ? mr. wolfe : what , is that supposed to be funny ? my misfortune is a source of amusement to you ? anna : i 'm watching this why ? officer : no , sir . your room -- mr. wolfe : i want an officer that cares ! officer : i care . mr. wolfe : this aidan devane -- he 's related to your captain . you 're going to make my complaint disappear . officer : no , sir , that 's not how we operate . mr. wolfe : i wo n't be able to rent that room until i replace everything . i 'm going to lose a fortune , all because devane went nuts and took off . no one here seems to care . well , i guess it 's my money that 's being lost . aidan : wow . leora 's autopsy report . carlos : hmm . greenlee : ta - da ! carlos : very nice . how 'd you get rid of all the graffiti ? greenlee : makeup remover . carlos : thank you for putting all the enchantment stuff back where it belongs . greenlee : well , it does n't belong here . fusion does . but i did n't want to get you in trouble with diane . so where is she , anyway ? carlos : on her way back to the lacey 's company picnic . greenlee : hmm . so we 're all alone ? carlos : completely . greenlee : but you 've got the codes . we could leave if we wanted to . carlos : if we wanted to . greenlee : i want -- carlos : so do i . erica : oh , jack . i 've been such an idiot . jack : no , sweetheart , no . erica : well , when i saw anna in your pajamas at your apartment , i -- i 'm sorry . just all the jealousies came flooding in . jack : listen to me . you have nothing to be jealous about , not ever . ok ? erica : did i do this to you ? did i make you worse ? jack : you mean did i burst a blood vessel over you ? hmm . well , maybe not this time . erica : i should n't have argued with you . jack : listen to me . this was not your fault , so knock it off , ok , honey ? erica : you just -- you need to rest now . quietly . so i 'm just -- i 'm just going to sit here . jack : i got a couple of questions , though . erica : well , joe can answer them for you all later . jack : i heard a nurse . she was saying something about finding a blood donor ? erica : yes . they found a match . oh , jack , there 's something that i need to tell you . there 's something that you need to know , and it ca n't wait . anna : so the manager at the pine cone motel is outside filling out a complaint . aidan : uh -- oh , i 'm sorry i have to do that to you . i -- i lost it for a second . anna : it just took a second to reduce the furniture to kindling ? aidan : all right . it was more like half an hour . anna : this is because maria 's gone back with edmund , is it ? aidan : no , this is because maria has -- has remarried edmund . anna : why did n't you tell me ? aidan : because my problems are nothing compared to what you 're going through right now . anna : this is n't a contest . you should come to me when you need to . aidan : you 've got enough of your own to deal with , anna . anna : we 're family . we do n't have to go through this alone , right ? aidan : i know . and you should know that , too , that i am here for you . anna : well , then you call me the next time you want to trash a room . aidan : there 's nothing you could 've done to stop me . anna : no , but i have some anger issues of my own i 'd like to get out . aidan : and this -- you should take this home . i think maybe you 're not really looking for a distraction . anna : i ca n't get leora out of my mind . aidan : i know . anna : i moved out of the cabin temporarily . aidan : it 's probably for the best . anna : yeah . it 's certainly best for me . aidan : what about david ? kenny : i am not intimidated by joe martin , but in order to build a case , we need evidence , witnesses . david : you know something ? i do n't know what i was thinking calling you . that 's ok . i want an attorney that 's not taken in by the martins . kenny : pursuing this suit might get you more than you 're prepared for . david : all right , thank you very much . you can go now . kenny : david , joe martin 's been pretty generous so far . david : are you -- are you out of your frigging mind ? kenny : he allowed you into the hospital despite the restraining order against you . he has n't filed charges for various violations like you breaking into his office -- david : you listen to me . what joe martin did was worse than negligence , kenny . he killed my daughter . kenny : david , i think you should get some help . go home , rest , and find someone you can talk -- david : go , go . get out ! get out . jamie : i know what to do and what not to do to keep out of trouble . tad : so you 're going to go out and hook up with elizabeth , right ? jamie : am i grounded ? tad : no , i 'm just confused . i thought you were dating laurie . jamie : well , i 'm kind of in a hurry here . tad : well , that 's a good reason for you to stop and think for a minute . jamie : i 'm not a kid anymore . tad : so act like a man . jamie : i 'm trying my best , thanks . see you later . tad : are you or are you not dating laurie ? yes or no ? jamie : we get together sometimes . tad : i guess i 'm just going to have to take that as a yes . jamie : but she -- she makes it very hard . tad : you 're never going to meet a woman who does n't . jamie : and you 've met a lot , huh ? tad : we just agreed -- you 're not going to follow my example , right ? jamie : well , if elizabeth is a mistake , then i 'm going to take it . tad : ok . before you make your mistake , why do n't you talk to laurie first , ok ? then you can hook up with elizabeth . do n't you think you owe laurie that much ? i 'm glad you agree with me . jamie : i did n't agree . tad : you did n't disagree . get together with laurie first , talk to her . tell her what you want , what you 're after . if she disagrees , then you can turn the page . all right ? jack : well , it sounds like you have big news . erica : i do . you were right and i was wrong . jack : boy , am i glad i 'm laying down . i just wish i had a tape recorder . so what was i right about ? erica : about everything . about how i try to drive you away , about how i keep testing your love because i am afraid that every man is going to leave me because my father did . jack : thank you . thank you for saying that , but you do n't have to go into this now . erica : yes , i do . i owe it to you . i owe you the truth . i owe you everything . and i just want to spend the rest of my life trying to repay you . jack : erica -- erica : jackson , will you marry me , just as soon as we are both able to walk down that aisle ? [ knock on door ] joe : jack ? this may not seem fair since we just put it in you . we 're going to need a vial of that blood back for tests . jack : well , as long as i have n't already drained the supplier , sure . erica : oh , no , you can always get more . i 'll -- i 'll wait outside . jack : love you . erica : love you . opal : well ? so , how did jackson take the news about being greenlee 's father ? erica : i did n't tell him , and i 'm never going to . carlos : i want to , but not here . greenlee : but we 're alone again . carlos : someone could walk in again . greenlee : someone ? or diane ? just exactly what is your history with mrs. lacey ? carlos : there 's nothing to tell , nothing interesting . greenlee : hmm . i 'll be the judge of that . tell me . carlos : there 's nothing to tell . greenlee : well , nothing would be , `` i hooked up her computer at home , i relined her swimming pool . `` this must be a little juicier . carlos : your imagination is running wild . greenlee : oh -- never bothered you before . carlos : no . greenlee : so tell me when you and mrs. lacey first met . carlos : i do n't remember . it 's been a while . greenlee : is this something that you or mrs. lacey would want to keep quiet ? carlos : i ca n't speak for diane . greenlee : you have something to hide , huh ? because if you do , i 'll find out . carlos : search away . you wo n't get anything out of me -- not any dirt , anyway . laurie : dr. hayward . david : just get me another drink . laurie : i ca n't . david : you ca n't cut me off after just one drink . laurie . laurie : i 'm not allowed to serve alcohol . i 'm sorry . david : all right , then just find somebody who can , all right ? double scotch , on the rocks . laurie : i 'll get charmayne . but after my mom died , alcohol -- alcohol only made things worse for my dad . david : laurie ? just -- just get me another drink , another coffee , all right ? laurie : one coffee , on the house . jamie : hey , laurie . laurie : hey . jamie : got a minute ? laurie : yeah . my shift just started , though . hey , thank you so much for last night . without you , things would 've been awful for my dad . jamie : yeah , i just -- i just wish he 'd get into rehab or something . laurie : me , too . jamie : can this all wait for a second ? laurie : yeah . what is it ? jamie : i really like you , laurie . i know that 's not news . but i needed to say it anyway because -- because i think we have a chance , laurie . i think something could happen , you know ? laurie : i think so . jamie : i want more . and i -- i think you do , too , but you keep playing this `` come here , go away `` kind of game and it 's frustrating and i ca n't deal with it anymore . and i got to know if you want to make this work . because if not , i 'm going to hook up with somebody else . greenlee : you 're not going to trust me , are you ? you 're not going to tell me your lame secret past with mrs. lacey . do you have any idea how insulting that is ? carlos : we 're just starting to know each other . greenlee : honesty helps a relationship progress . carlos : so does trust . greenlee : what are you saying , you do n't trust me ? carlos : you played that childish game with the enchantment display . greenlee : i put everything back exactly the way it was . carlos : obviously you did . greenlee : but -- but this secret of yours -- it 's so big , so awful that you ca n't even confess it to me ? carlos : next , we work to reduce you from drama queen to drama duchess . greenlee : you like me just the way i am . carlos : keep a little of your devilish streak . i like spice . greenlee : ok . ok . you 're not going to tell me your secret . i have one to share with you . carlos : you can tell me anything . greenlee : we were n't really trapped in here . we could 've called for help anytime . spicy enough for you ? opal : well , you know , it 's possible that this could be the best time to tell jackson that he 's greenlee 's daddy -- you know , when he 's still weak and groggy . erica : opal , i told jack what he needs to know now -- that we are going to get married just as soon as he is ready . opal : well , hon , that 's fantastic . erica : it is ! he does n't need any bad news . opal : well , you know , it 's possible that jack wo n't think this is bad . erica : opal , how could you say that ? i mean , greenlee has been a monster . she has just tormented bianca about her sexuality , she 's clearly out to sabotage me and enchantment . opal : but still , i think that jack and greenlee deserve to know the truth . erica : do n't you think that i have been through enough by now ? and what about jack ? has n't he ? look , we do n't need a demonic stepdaughter interfering in our marriage . opal : thus the rush to the altar . erica : excuse me ? opal : it is n't just because you came close to losing jack again . you are in a hurry to seal the deal , and i know why . erica : because i love jackson . opal : you want to get him branded and tied to you pronto before mary can make her move . erica : well , mary can make all the moves she wants . opal , i 'm certainly not threatened by some fling jackson had with mary smythe . opal : well , maybe not , but what was flung during that fling is giving you conniptions . and the flinger , whose initials just happen to be mary smythe , is going to spill . erica : no , she wo n't . i wo n't let her . aidan : you still think david 's responsible ? anna : i wish i did n't . aidan : is there anything i can do ? anna : oh , i 'm so furious at him . and i am so bitterly disappointed . and yet i 'm still worried about him . aidan : do n't waste your energy . anna : you know , i 've seen him angry before , but this is like he 's lost everything . aidan : you know , part of this is david 's fault . he may have lost leora , but he has thrown you away . anna : that may well be . there 's no telling what he 'll do . it 's like he has a score to settle with the martin family or something . laurie : jamie , what are you asking me to do ? jamie : i just want to know if there 's a future for us or something . laurie : jamie , i just graduated . i do n't know what i 'm doing . my dad 's messed up . jamie : your dad 's totally screwed up . his life is hopeless . and he 's going to drag you to the ground . laurie : what ? jamie : if he does n't get off the booze , you should kick him to the curb . laurie : i ca n't do that . jamie : you 're going to let him run your life for you ? he 's going to ruin every chance for something better . laurie : jamie , i 'm trying to work . my life is one big question mark . my dad 's an alcoholic . it 's a disease . and you want me to sign on to i - do n't - know - what and turn my back on my father ? jamie : forget it . forget it , ok ? laurie : thanks . i 'll try . jamie : you know what ? i should 've dropped you , like , yesterday . and instead i came here to give you a second chance . david : hey , you better back off before you get hurt . carlos : you said you left your phone in the car . greenlee : i -- i thought i had . i mean , i thought so at first , but -- carlos : but it rang . greenlee : uh , yeah . carlos : i did hear a phone ring . i heard your phone ring . greenlee : i fibbed . carlos : you lied to me . greenlee : i bent the truth a little . carlos : you ripped -- you ripped it to pieces . greenlee : i just wanted us to enjoy ourselves . and you did , did n't you ? carlos : very much . greenlee : so you ca n't be mad at me now . carlos : no . but do n't ever lie to me again . because if you do , watch out . greenlee : afraid i 'm too hot to handle ? carlos : as hot as you can dish it , i can take it . opal : well , i mean , short of homicide , i do n't know how you 're going to glue mary 's trap shut , but i will keep quiet . erica : ok , thank you . thank you . opal : for now . i just -- oh , here -- erica : joe ? joe : hmm ? erica : can i go back in again ? joe : you may , yes . erica : thank you . opal : give jack my congratulations , too , all right ? erica : i will . opal : and , erica , do be careful . erica : ok . so where would you like to have the ceremony ? i mean , it can get really hot outside this time of year , but the arboretum -- jack : whoa , whoa , whoa . what 's -- what 's the big rush all of a sudden ? erica : well , i want to marry you . i love you . erica : well , i know now that you have been absolutely right . jack : let me tell you something -- if you flip - flop on me again -- erica : i am not going to flip - flop anymore . jack , i want to marry you more than anything in the world . i need to spend my life with you . jack : i hope it 's not because i would 've died if they had n't found a blood donor . erica : i love you . i just want to marry you as soon as we can . jack : and there 's nothing more to it ? nothing that i do n't know ? mary : please , let me answer that . [ next_on ] jack : you would n't happen to know who this blood donor was ? greenlee : i dared erica to give you a second chance . kendall : so what 'd she say ? greenlee : that she 's not your mom . liza : i do n't want you going anywhere near tad martin . david : you see this man right here ? he killed my little girl .
anna tells aidan she wishes david would stop blaming the martins for leora 's death . meanwhile , david meets with kenny and asks him to build a case against joe and tad martin . kenny patiently listens to david 's story , but later tells him that he does n't have a case . david becomes furious and asks kenny to leave . he later orders a drink , but lori tells him that alcohol will just make things worse . david smiles and thanks lori for caring . after some encouragement from tad , jamie comes in and asks lori to be with him . lori tells him she 's not sure what she wants to do . jamie becomes angry and tells her if she does n't make a decision soon , he 'll just move on to another girl . when jamie continues pressuring lori , david grabs him and tells him to back off . opal encourages erica to tell jackson the truth about his donor . however , instead of telling the truth , erica begs jackson to marry her as soon as he gets out of the hospital . jackson looks confused and asks her why she 's in such a rush to get married all of a sudden . mary comes in and tells jackson she can give him an explanation . mrs. lacey , the owner of the department store , catches carlos and greenlee inside . she acts very friendly with carlos and gives him the security code so he does n't get locked in again . greenlee later asks carlos what his relation is with mrs. lacey . carlos tells her that they 're just friends and that he is n't hiding anything . greenlee confesses that she had her cell phone all along and could have called for help . carlos warns greenlee to never lie to him again .
<s>[INST] ( missing beginning ) jamie : and i had one sip of beer -- not even enough to get a buzz . so we can forget about me being drunk and -- and having a hangover . so can we , like , ground me later ? tad : no . so , like , sit down . like , now . you obviously mistake me for a father that does n't give a damn . jamie : dad , i 've heard this speech before . the `` shot liver , dead liver `` stupid speech . tad : not the way i deliver it , you have n't . jamie : my dad , tad the cad , is going to preach me abstinence ? this is going to be good . opal : hey , there . what gives ? last time i saw you , jack was on the mend . now i find you staring off into space . erica : yeah , well , joe martin 's in with -- with jack right now . opal : and ? erica : and -- and what ? opal : well , i mean , thanks to that matching blood donor , he 's going to be ok , right ? erica : yes , thank god . i mean , joe says that jack 's going to be fine . opal : well , then why the long face ? i mean , you ought to be doing nip - ups singing whoop - de - do . a miracle like that does n't come along every day , you know ? erica : opal , this miracle may also be a disaster . jack 's donor was greenlee . opal : greenlee ? erica : mm - hmm . opal : well , is n't that a kick in the head -- i mean , that jack 's savior should be your worst neighbor . erica : and probably jack 's daughter . opal : um , wait a minute , i did n't quite catch that . erica : oh , it is no coincidence . no wild coincidence whatsoever . opal , i think that jack is greenlee 's father . opal : well , clear a space . david : it 's all right here , ok ? joe martin assembled an inferior team to work on my daughter . kenny : you and your wife did n't know who was assigned to perform your daughter 's surgery ? david : yes , we did . but joe convinced anna to keep me out of the process . kenny : still , you knew their names , their reputations . david : yes , of course i knew their reputations , which is exactly why i opposed it adamantly right from the beginning . but joe led anna to believe that this pacemaker surgery was necessary . kenny : is n't that a medically sound opinion ? david : no , not -- not in leora 's case . i told joe over and over again that leora needed to gain strength . but he did not want her to gain strength . he did not want her to survive . kenny : you want to file criminal charges ? david : no . listen , our d.a . , jackson montgomery , is in joe martin 's pocket -- i mean , old family friends and all that garbage . so joe knows the d.a . will protect him . montgomery hates me just as much as the martins do . kenny : that 's quite a theory . david : it 's not a theory , it 's a fact . and this hand - tooled autopsy report will prove it . kenny : it looks legitimate to me . david : yeah , well , looks can be deceiving . i 'm telling you , kenny , this -- this is a cover - up , and it 's dictated by joe martin . kenny : ok , so criminal action 's out of the question . do you want to pursue a civil suit ? malpractice ? david : i want joe martin and his son tad to be penniless and disgraced . kenny : what does tad martin have to do with this ? david : look , just -- just take the time to read this , ok ? it 's all right there . tad is the one that kept me out of that o.r . so you find something . i do n't care -- i do n't give a damn what you do , but you find something that 'll stick , all right ? wrongful death , conspiracy to commit murder . you just find something that 'll make him pay for what he did . kenny : i 'll read this . i 'll get your take on the incident . david : if tad had let me go in that o.r . , leora would still be alive today . kenny : but you were n't part of the surgical team . you were n't cleared to operate . david : kenny , you listen to me . joe martin has been jealous of my skill from the second i stepped foot in this town . now , when dixie martin fell in love with me , that is exactly what pushed tad and joe over the edge . from that point on , they 've been trying to find anything , any opportunity that they can to destroy my life . well , anna handed it to them when she agreed to the surgery , ok ? so you find something . you find something that 's going to make them regret this . you find something that 's going to make them suffer , do you hear me ? kenny : but if we ca n't win ? david : we ca n't win ?

come on , your brother 's already had his problems with drugs . jamie : that 's his trip , not mine , ok ? tad : ok , so , fine , let 's talk about your trip , ok ? your -- your habits , and the next party , or the party after that , and shots are involved , ok , and you are away from home . you got to get behind the wheel of a car , and the fact is it screws with your judgment , your reflexes . all it takes is one tree . jamie : dad , mom has n't gotten over little laura being hit by a drunk . i did n't drive home last night . i swear . mom would kill me if i ever did that . tad : do me a favor . while you 're out there , trying on your life for size , just remember one thing . it 's always the little things , the stupid things that do n't even seem important at the moment that can destroy your life . jamie : i get it . i get it , ok ? tad : be careful .

[ knock on door ] anna : i -- yes , come in . ok . i 'm going to need -- sean : chief ? anna : yeah ? sean : there 's someone out there you might want to see . anna : oh . hold on a second . aidan : all right . anna : i 'll be right back . thanks . man : the room 's destroyed . i got a better chance of renting out a bomb crater than that room . officer : have you got an inventory , mr. wolfe ? mr. wolfe : what 's to inventory ? there 's not a piece of furniture worth burning . even the mirror 's smashed . officer : seven years ' bad luck , huh ? mr. wolfe : what , is that supposed to be funny ? my misfortune is a source of amusement to you ? anna : i 'm watching this why ? officer : no , sir . your room -- mr. wolfe : i want an officer that cares ! officer : i care . mr. wolfe : this aidan devane -- he 's related to your captain . you 're going to make my complaint disappear . officer : no , sir , that 's not how we operate . mr. wolfe : i wo n't be able to rent that room until i replace everything . i 'm going to lose a fortune , all because devane went nuts and took off . no one here seems to care . well , i guess it 's my money that 's being lost . aidan : wow . leora 's autopsy report . carlos : hmm . greenlee : ta - da ! carlos : very nice . how 'd you get rid of all the graffiti ? greenlee : makeup remover . carlos : thank you for putting all the enchantment stuff back where it belongs . greenlee : well , it does n't belong here . fusion does . but i did n't want to get you in trouble with diane . so where is she , anyway ? carlos : on her way back to the lacey 's company picnic . greenlee : hmm . so we 're all alone ? carlos : completely . greenlee : but you 've got the codes . we could leave if we wanted to . carlos : if we wanted to . greenlee : i want -- carlos : so do i . erica : oh , jack . i 've been such an idiot . jack : no , sweetheart , no . erica : well , when i saw anna in your pajamas at your apartment , i -- i 'm sorry . just all the jealousies came flooding in . jack : listen to me . you have nothing to be jealous about , not ever . ok ? erica : did i do this to you ? did i make you worse ? jack : you mean did i burst a blood vessel over you ? hmm . well , maybe not this time . erica : i should n't have argued with you . jack : listen to me . this was not your fault , so knock it off , ok , honey ? erica : you just -- you need to rest now . quietly . so i 'm just -- i 'm just going to sit here . jack : i got a couple of questions , though . erica : well , joe can answer them for you all later . jack : i heard a nurse . she was saying something about finding a blood donor ? erica : yes . they found a match . oh , jack , there 's something that i need to tell you . there 's something that you need to know , and it ca n't wait . anna : so the manager at the pine cone motel is outside filling out a complaint . aidan : uh -- oh , i 'm sorry i have to do that to you . i -- i lost it for a second . anna : it just took a second to reduce the furniture to kindling ? aidan : all right . it was more like half an hour . anna : this is because maria 's gone back with edmund , is it ? aidan : no , this is because maria has -- has remarried edmund . anna : why did n't you tell me ? aidan : because my problems are nothing compared to what you 're going through right now . anna : this is n't a contest . you should come to me when you need to . aidan : you 've got enough of your own to deal with , anna . anna : we 're family . we do n't have to go through this alone , right ? aidan : i know . and you should know that , too , that i am here for you . anna : well , then you call me the next time you want to trash a room . aidan : there 's nothing you could 've done to stop me . anna : no , but i have some anger issues of my own i 'd like to get out . aidan : and this -- you should take this home . i think maybe you 're not really looking for a distraction . anna : i ca n't get leora out of my mind . aidan : i know . anna : i moved out of the cabin temporarily . aidan : it 's probably for the best . anna : yeah . it 's certainly best for me . aidan : what about david ? kenny : i am not intimidated by joe martin , but in order to build a case , we need evidence , witnesses . david : you know something ? i do n't know what i was thinking calling you . that 's ok . i want an attorney that 's not taken in by the martins . kenny : pursuing this suit might get you more than you 're prepared for . david : all right , thank you very much . you can go now . kenny : david , joe martin 's been pretty generous so far . david : are you -- are you out of your frigging mind ? kenny : he allowed you into the hospital despite the restraining order against you . he has n't filed charges for various violations like you breaking into his office -- david : you listen to me . what joe martin did was worse than negligence , kenny . he killed my daughter . kenny : david , i think you should get some help . go home , rest , and find someone you can talk -- david : go , go . get out ! get out . jamie : i know what to do and what not to do to keep out of trouble . tad : so you 're going to go out and hook up with elizabeth , right ? jamie : am i grounded ? tad : no , i 'm just confused . i thought you were dating laurie . jamie : well , i 'm kind of in a hurry here . tad : well , that 's a good reason for you to stop and think for a minute . jamie : i 'm not a kid anymore . tad : so act like a man . jamie : i 'm trying my best , thanks . see you later . tad : are you or are you not dating laurie ? yes or no ? jamie : we get together sometimes . tad : i guess i 'm just going to have to take that as a yes . jamie : but she -- she makes it very hard . tad : you 're never going to meet a woman who does n't . jamie : and you 've met a lot , huh ? tad : we just agreed -- you 're not going to follow my example , right ? jamie : well , if elizabeth is a mistake , then i 'm going to take it . tad : ok . before you make your mistake , why do n't you talk to laurie first , ok ? then you can hook up with elizabeth . do n't you think you owe laurie that much ? i 'm glad you agree with me . jamie : i did n't agree . tad : you did n't disagree . get together with laurie first , talk to her . tell her what you want , what you 're after . if she disagrees , then you can turn the page . all right ? jack : well , it sounds like you have big news . erica : i do . you were right and i was wrong . jack : boy , am i glad i 'm laying down . i just wish i had a tape recorder . so what was i right about ? erica : about everything . about how i try to drive you away , about how i keep testing your love because i am afraid that every man is going to leave me because my father did . jack : thank you . thank you for saying that , but you do n't have to go into this now . erica : yes , i do . i owe it to you . i owe you the truth . i owe you everything . and i just want to spend the rest of my life trying to repay you . jack : erica -- erica : jackson , will you marry me , just as soon as we are both able to walk down that aisle ? [ knock on door ] joe : jack ? this may not seem fair since we just put it in you . we 're going to need a vial of that blood back for tests . jack : well , as long as i have n't already drained the supplier , sure . erica : oh , no , you can always get more . i 'll -- i 'll wait outside . jack : love you . erica : love you . opal : well ? so , how did jackson take the news about being greenlee 's father ? erica : i did n't tell him , and i 'm never going to . carlos : i want to , but not here . greenlee : but we 're alone again . carlos : someone could walk in again . greenlee : someone ? or diane ? just exactly what is your history with mrs. lacey ? carlos : there 's nothing to tell , nothing interesting . greenlee : hmm . i 'll be the judge of that . tell me . carlos : there 's nothing to tell . greenlee : well , nothing would be , `` i hooked up her computer at home , i relined her swimming pool . `` this must be a little juicier . carlos : your imagination is running wild . greenlee : oh -- never bothered you before . carlos : no . greenlee : so tell me when you and mrs. lacey first met . carlos : i do n't remember . it 's been a while . greenlee : is this something that you or mrs. lacey would want to keep quiet ? carlos : i ca n't speak for diane . greenlee : you have something to hide , huh ? because if you do , i 'll find out . carlos : search away . you wo n't get anything out of me -- not any dirt , anyway . laurie : dr. hayward . david : just get me another drink . laurie : i ca n't . david : you ca n't cut me off after just one drink . laurie . laurie : i 'm not allowed to serve alcohol . i 'm sorry . david : all right , then just find somebody who can , all right ? double scotch , on the rocks . laurie : i 'll get charmayne . but after my mom died , alcohol -- alcohol only made things worse for my dad . david : laurie ? just -- just get me another drink , another coffee , all right ? laurie : one coffee , on the house . jamie : hey , laurie . laurie : hey . jamie : got a minute ? laurie : yeah . my shift just started , though . hey , thank you so much for last night . without you , things would 've been awful for my dad . jamie : yeah , i just -- i just wish he 'd get into rehab or something . laurie : me , too . jamie : can this all wait for a second ? laurie : yeah . what is it ? jamie : i really like you , laurie . i know that 's not news . but i needed to say it anyway because -- because i think we have a chance , laurie . i think something could happen , you know ? laurie : i think so . jamie : i want more . and i -- i think you do , too , but you keep playing this `` come here , go away `` kind of game and it 's frustrating and i ca n't deal with it anymore . and i got to know if you want to make this work . because if not , i 'm going to hook up with somebody else . greenlee : you 're not going to trust me , are you ? you 're not going to tell me your lame secret past with mrs. lacey . do you have any idea how insulting that is ? carlos : we 're just starting to know each other . greenlee : honesty helps a relationship progress . carlos : so does trust . greenlee : what are you saying , you do n't trust me ? carlos : you played that childish game with the enchantment display . greenlee : i put everything back exactly the way it was . carlos : obviously you did . greenlee : but -- but this secret of yours -- it 's so big , so awful that you ca n't even confess it to me ? carlos : next , we work to reduce you from drama queen to drama duchess . greenlee : you like me just the way i am . carlos : keep a little of your devilish streak . i like spice . greenlee : ok . ok . you 're not going to tell me your secret . i have one to share with you . carlos : you can tell me anything . greenlee : we were n't really trapped in here . we could 've called for help anytime . spicy enough for you ? opal : well , you know , it 's possible that this could be the best time to tell jackson that he 's greenlee 's daddy -- you know , when he 's still weak and groggy . erica : opal , i told jack what he needs to know now -- that we are going to get married just as soon as he is ready . opal : well , hon , that 's fantastic . erica : it is ! he does n't need any bad news . opal : well , you know , it 's possible that jack wo n't think this is bad . erica : opal , how could you say that ? i mean , greenlee has been a monster . she has just tormented bianca about her sexuality , she 's clearly out to sabotage me and enchantment . opal : but still , i think that jack and greenlee deserve to know the truth . erica : do n't you think that i have been through enough by now ? and what about jack ? has n't he ? look , we do n't need a demonic stepdaughter interfering in our marriage . opal : thus the rush to the altar . erica : excuse me ? opal : it is n't just because you came close to losing jack again . you are in a hurry to seal the deal , and i know why . erica : because i love jackson . opal : you want to get him branded and tied to you pronto before mary can make her move . erica : well , mary can make all the moves she wants . opal , i 'm certainly not threatened by some fling jackson had with mary smythe . opal : well , maybe not , but what was flung during that fling is giving you conniptions . and the flinger , whose initials just happen to be mary smythe , is going to spill . erica : no , she wo n't . i wo n't let her . aidan : you still think david 's responsible ? anna : i wish i did n't . aidan : is there anything i can do ? anna : oh , i 'm so furious at him . and i am so bitterly disappointed . and yet i 'm still worried about him . aidan : do n't waste your energy . anna : you know , i 've seen him angry before , but this is like he 's lost everything . aidan : you know , part of this is david 's fault . he may have lost leora , but he has thrown you away . anna : that may well be . there 's no telling what he 'll do . it 's like he has a score to settle with the martin family or something . laurie : jamie , what are you asking me to do ? jamie : i just want to know if there 's a future for us or something . laurie : jamie , i just graduated . i do n't know what i 'm doing . my dad 's messed up . jamie : your dad 's totally screwed up . his life is hopeless . and he 's going to drag you to the ground . laurie : what ? jamie : if he does n't get off the booze , you should kick him to the curb . laurie : i ca n't do that . jamie : you 're going to let him run your life for you ? he 's going to ruin every chance for something better . laurie : jamie , i 'm trying to work . my life is one big question mark . my dad 's an alcoholic . it 's a disease . and you want me to sign on to i - do n't - know - what and turn my back on my father ? jamie : forget it . forget it , ok ? laurie : thanks . i 'll try . jamie : you know what ? i should 've dropped you , like , yesterday . and instead i came here to give you a second chance . david : hey , you better back off before you get hurt . carlos : you said you left your phone in the car . greenlee : i -- i thought i had . i mean , i thought so at first , but -- carlos : but it rang . greenlee : uh , yeah . carlos : i did hear a phone ring . i heard your phone ring . greenlee : i fibbed . carlos : you lied to me . greenlee : i bent the truth a little . carlos : you ripped -- you ripped it to pieces . greenlee : i just wanted us to enjoy ourselves . and you did , did n't you ? carlos : very much . greenlee : so you ca n't be mad at me now . carlos : no . but do n't ever lie to me again . because if you do , watch out . greenlee : afraid i 'm too hot to handle ? carlos : as hot as you can dish it , i can take it . opal : well , i mean , short of homicide , i do n't know how you 're going to glue mary 's trap shut , but i will keep quiet . erica : ok , thank you . thank you . opal : for now . i just -- oh , here -- erica : joe ? joe : hmm ? erica : can i go back in again ? joe : you may , yes . erica : thank you . opal : give jack my congratulations , too , all right ? erica : i will . opal : and , erica , do be careful . erica : ok . so where would you like to have the ceremony ? i mean , it can get really hot outside this time of year , but the arboretum -- jack : whoa , whoa , whoa . what 's -- what 's the big rush all of a sudden ? erica : well , i want to marry you . i love you . erica : well , i know now that you have been absolutely right . jack : let me tell you something -- if you flip - flop on me again -- erica : i am not going to flip - flop anymore . jack , i want to marry you more than anything in the world . i need to spend my life with you . jack : i hope it 's not because i would 've died if they had n't found a blood donor . erica : i love you . i just want to marry you as soon as we can . jack : and there 's nothing more to it ? nothing that i do n't know ? mary : please , let me answer that . [ next_on ] jack : you would n't happen to know who this blood donor was ? greenlee : i dared erica to give you a second chance . kendall : so what 'd she say ? greenlee : that she 's not your mom . liza : i do n't want you going anywhere near tad martin . david : you see this man right here ? he killed my little girl .Summarize.[/INST]anna tells aidan she wishes david would stop blaming the martins for leora 's death . meanwhile , david meets with kenny and asks him to build a case against joe and tad martin . kenny patiently listens to david 's story , but later tells him that he does n't have a case . david becomes furious and asks kenny to leave . he later orders a drink , but lori tells him that alcohol will just make things worse . david smiles and thanks lori for caring . after some encouragement from tad , jamie comes in and asks lori to be with him . lori tells him she 's not sure what she wants to do . jamie becomes angry and tells her if she does n't make a decision soon , he 'll just move on to another girl . when jamie continues pressuring lori , david grabs him and tells him to back off . opal encourages erica to tell jackson the truth about his donor . however , instead of telling the truth , erica begs jackson to marry her as soon as he gets out of the hospital . jackson looks confused and asks her why she 's in such a rush to get married all of a sudden . mary comes in and tells jackson she can give him an explanation . mrs. lacey , the owner of the department store , catches carlos and greenlee inside . she acts very friendly with carlos and gives him the security code so he does n't get locked in again . greenlee later asks carlos what his relation is with mrs. lacey . carlos tells her that they 're just friends and that he is n't hiding anything . greenlee confesses that she had her cell phone all along and could have called for help . carlos warns greenlee to never lie to him again .</s>

[ scene_break ] johnny : some might accuse you of being overly dramatic , doc . but not me . i happen to agree with you . once you start playing fast and loose with people 's lives , it rarely ends well . look at sonny and my sister . he used her up and tossed her out just like you did with lisa . patrick : oh , wow . so that 's what this is about . you 're protecting lisa because she reminds you of your sister . that 's twisted , johnny . since you 're sleeping with lisa . but i will give you this -- lisa is definitely just as crazy as your whack job sister . johnny : it must be easy for you to drop the blame squarely on lisa 's lap . act like she went nuts in a vacuum and you had nothing to do with it . you know , part of me thinks that you probably like the attention ; even maybe encouraged it . what 's one night , right ? but then your wife became wise to the whole thing and , well , lisa 's all of a sudden a raving lunatic . never once considering that she may actually have real feelings for you . it 's no wonder the girl snapped . patrick : ok , johnny , you and lisa can continue to play your sick little games . i do n't give a crap . but leave me and robin out of it . [ door opens , closes ] [ scene_break ] robin : lisa thought that taking emma would show patrick they could be a family . ok ? that 's how crazy she is . that she can even justify kidnapping if it gets patrick 's attention . what if someone took josslyn ? some sick , deranged woman ? would n't you want her to pay ? lisa wo n't , unless you at least let me look around . please . carly : you got 2 minutes . robin : thank you . carly : do n't mess everything up . robin : there has to be a clue in here somewhere . carly : unless johnny 's just trying to send you and lisa on a wild goose chase to make you crazy , and it looks like it 's working . you know , you could have just rang the doorbell . why did you just walk into my house ? robin : i do n't care if i look like i 'm crazy . i will jump through any hoops that i have to as long as i find a clue . told you ! [ scene_break ] lisa : ok , i thought it would be better for me to leave and clear my head than rush a patient into surgery and possibly make a mistake because i was still focused on my latest run - in with robin . ok , i do n't think that is bad judgment . if anything -- steve : good doctors do n't let their emotions get in the way of treating patients . great doctors , like you and patrick , do n't second guess your skills . and never pass up a chance in the o.r . what were you looking for in my office ? lisa : i was looking for a pen to write a note . steve : you always have an answer , do n't you ? lisa : it 's the truth . steve : the fact that you 're lying to cover makes me think you 've been lying about everything . boiling emma 's toy , trying to inject robin . lisa : of course you 're siding with robin , because you 're just trying to get back at me for breaking things off -- steve : i have bent over backwards to be fair to you . but it 's becoming increasingly clear that you 've been playing me for a fool . lisa : oh , steve ! steve : what i ca n't figure out is for how long . did you sleep with me for leverage ? to keep me from firing you when you decided to start pulling all of these stupid stunts ? or was the time we spent together the last sane moments you had before diving headlong into this obsession with patrick ? lisa : ok , patrick was unhappy with his marriage so he cheated . somehow , he 's come out completely unscathed while robin has labeled me a psychopath . there 's absolutely no proof to back up any of her accusations . steve : i 've had enough of the distractions . i 've had enough of the disruptions and all the drama around here . if that syringe does surface , you will be fired . lisa : i 'm sorry . steve : you can leave now . go .

[ brenda chuckles ] sonny : heh . ok . i 'm sorry about that . see , i was trying to figure out a way to tell you . and then this happened with the bomb and everything , so . but he is right about , it 's a lot better for you to be here with me . i 'd feel much more ... brenda : what , because of the snipers ? sonny : no , that 's -- milo , he does n't have a lot of tact . brenda : ok , honey , could you just do me one little favor ? maybe next time you could tell me first . i mean , when it 's something this important . sonny : absolutely . brenda : absolutely ? sonny : yeah . so you ok ? are you ok with -- brenda : oh , i do n't know . i kinda miss our beautiful house . i thought we were going to live there . i mean , that 's where you gave me my rings . that 's where we had our first christmas . and ... i mean , you know , any place that you are is home to me . you 're going to give me a tour ? sonny : yeah . brenda : ok . sonny : will it be ok ? brenda : i 'll take a tour . i feel fine ! stop asking that .

[ scene_break ] patrick : anything ? robin : no sign of the syringe , but more clues to follow . i 'm beginning to wonder if they actually lead anywhere or if this is just a big game to johnny . patrick : yeah , i went and talked to johnny to try and get him to drop the stupid fiasco , but no luck . he does n't think lisa 's crazy , just misunderstood . and in some twisted way , he thinks by helping lisa , it 's going to make up for the fact that he could n't save his sister . robin : `` what you seek stays in the family . `` patrick : what is that ? robin : the next clue . maybe johnny was talking about claudia . patrick : so what does that mean ? find the grave , find the syringe ? steve : patrick , there 's a trauma patient in the e.r . i need you on it . patrick : page mariucci . steve : mariucci 's in surgery . last i checked , you were the neurologist on call . patrick : yeah , chief , something came up . steve : well , put your personal life on the back burner . the patient takes priority . robin : it 's ok , i got it . patrick : ok . [ scene_break ] lucky : ok , dad , if you have objections to us getting married , i 'd like to hear them . luke : um ... well , i think it 's sudden , that 's all . look , you 're still bleeding from the wounds of your last marriage . and rebound relationships , i hear , do n't usually make for stable marriages . lucky : i 'm marrying siobhan to keep her in the country , ok ? it 's not a perfect solution , obviously . but it 's better than the alternative . siobhan : i understand your reservations . i have a few myself . but lucky 's been generous enough to offer his help , and i -- i ca n't see my way clear to refuse . lucky : look , you 'll know where we 'll be tonight . we 'll be with the justice of the peace . if you show up , you show up , right ? luke : right . lucky : come on , let 's go .

[ scene_break ] michael : how 'd you know i was at the pier ? jason : i asked you to stay away from this business . you ignored me . and then you went behind my back . michael : look , tonight was n't about defying you , jason . i was trying to help . i heard there was an important shipment coming in . you were n't going to be there . i figured i 'd pick up the slack , make sure it landed . so you can focus on finding theo , but everything would have been fine if the cops did n't show up . jason : well , the cops , that 's their job . the cops can show up any time they want . all it takes is once . michael : you needed somebody you could trust -- jason : i did n't ask you for help . michael : well , i did n't ask you to send yourself to prison to protect me , either , did i ? but i needed you there and i can admit that now . so why ca n't you admit you need me , too ?

[ both laugh ] brenda : how long have you lived here ? sonny : ah , a while . i bought this place for my kids 'cause i wanted them to have a place that they could call their home . with a great big backyard . and i knew they 'd like living on the water . 'cause that way i could take them on the boat . they love that . brenda : it must have been a nice place for them to grow up . sonny : well , you know , every time carly and i would split up ; it was like the boys would move in with her . kristina would come visit me every so often , and then that stopped . and i got ta tell you , this is a pretty big place to live by yourself . you know , i was counting on you to maybe make this feel like a home for me . [ both chuckle ] brenda : really ? sonny : yeah . brenda : i 've never had a home . i 've always moved from place to place . stayed in all those hotels . but there was never any family , you know ? family was the one thing that was missing from all those beautiful places . sonny : a home is about the people in it , right ? brenda : yeah . i want to make a home , wherever you want to . for us . and for your kids .

[ scene_break ] michael : look , jason , i know the way the business works . dad might give the orders but you handle all the day to day operations . everything from overseeing shipments to running the warehouse , when you should be focusing on finding theo . not finding theo as revenge for what he did to sam and brenda , but to send a message to the other families . you do n't hurt someone we care about and get away with it . jason : michael ... growing up , you were exposed to things you never should have been . you never got the chance to have a normal childhood . i just want you to have a normal life . michael : look , you 're not going to let anyone else help you with theo . dad 's going to be too busy with brenda to help you on the business side . that leaves me . you need somebody you can trust . just face it , jason , that 's me . jason : it 'll never be you .

patrick tells johnny to leave him and robin out of his games . lisa finds a clue in steve 's desk , but steve catches her in his office and threatens to fire her . he berates her for leaving the hospital without telling anyone after he asked her for a consult . lisa goes to johnny 's and tell him that she does n't understand the clue `` your luck is about to run out , `` but he tells her she has to figure it out for herself . carly allows robin to find a clue johnny left at carly 's house , which leads her to the haunted star , where she finds the syringe . lisa arrives at the haunted star and tries to take the syringe , but robin gets away from her .
<s>[INST] robin : look , lisa has been terrorizing my family for over a year now . she 's obsessed with patrick . her obsession is completely out of control , to the point where she tried to kill me . carly : so call mac . what the hell are you doing here ? robin : mac can not arrest lisa without proof . and supposedly johnny has the syringe that she tried to inject me with . and instead of turning it over to the police , he 's made it into a treasure hunt for me and lisa . carly : ok , look , i do n't want to be part of any game you guys are playing . and you tell johnny zacchara i do n't like him enough for him to come into my house . and that goes for you , too . robin : look , i do n't expect you to do me any favors . but i also do n't believe for one second that you would let lisa hurt my child . which she will do , if you do n't help me stop her . [ scene_break ] lisa : ok , you ca n't fire me , i did n't do anything wrong . steve : you 're certainly not doing the job you were hired for . when i asked for a consult , i expect more than a cursory glance at a chart . the patient deserves more than that . lisa : well , the patient was stable , so ... steve : that 's not the point . you left this hospital without notifying anyone or bothering to ask permission . you do n't just leave a note on my desk after the fact explaining why . not that i buy for a second that 's why you 're in my office . lisa : ok , i realize that what happened today was completely unprofessional . it 's just , all of those catty remarks and those crazy accusations sometimes get to be too much . i just needed to get out of here for a little bit . steve : i have kept you on the staff because i think you 're a gifted doctor . but after what you pulled tonight , i 'm beginning to question my judgment . and yours . [ scene_break ] patrick : lisa is crazy , johnny . you think this little competition is going to help get her life back together ? then so are you . let 's just say that lisa finds the syringe first and she destroys it . you think her problems are going to go away with it ? they 're not . they 're deeper than that . she needs help . and i 'm talking real help . johnny : i know crazy , and lisa ai n't it . believe me . patrick : johnny , you ... you think you 're giving her a chance to turn her life around . but all it is - is a free pass to further destroy my family . johnny : giving her a chance to take a gamble . same thing for robin . and they each have the same -- patrick : you 're gambling with people 's lives . keep it up , and somebody 's going to die . [ scene_break ] [ siren in distance ] dante : you stay right here . ok ? i 'll be back and we 'll figure this out . but you stay right here . hey , i lost him . check the other side of the pier . jason : get in , let 's go !

'cause what happened to our house in the woods ? [ scene_break ] johnny : some might accuse you of being overly dramatic , doc . but not me . i happen to agree with you . once you start playing fast and loose with people 's lives , it rarely ends well . look at sonny and my sister . he used her up and tossed her out just like you did with lisa . patrick : oh , wow . so that 's what this is about . you 're protecting lisa because she reminds you of your sister . that 's twisted , johnny . since you 're sleeping with lisa . but i will give you this -- lisa is definitely just as crazy as your whack job sister . johnny : it must be easy for you to drop the blame squarely on lisa 's lap . act like she went nuts in a vacuum and you had nothing to do with it . you know , part of me thinks that you probably like the attention ; even maybe encouraged it . what 's one night , right ? but then your wife became wise to the whole thing and , well , lisa 's all of a sudden a raving lunatic . never once considering that she may actually have real feelings for you . it 's no wonder the girl snapped . patrick : ok , johnny , you and lisa can continue to play your sick little games . i do n't give a crap . but leave me and robin out of it . [ door opens , closes ] [ scene_break ] robin : lisa thought that taking emma would show patrick they could be a family . ok ? that 's how crazy she is . that she can even justify kidnapping if it gets patrick 's attention . what if someone took josslyn ? some sick , deranged woman ? would n't you want her to pay ? lisa wo n't , unless you at least let me look around . please . carly : you got 2 minutes . robin : thank you . carly : do n't mess everything up . robin : there has to be a clue in here somewhere . carly : unless johnny 's just trying to send you and lisa on a wild goose chase to make you crazy , and it looks like it 's working . you know , you could have just rang the doorbell . why did you just walk into my house ? robin : i do n't care if i look like i 'm crazy . i will jump through any hoops that i have to as long as i find a clue . told you ! [ scene_break ] lisa : ok , i thought it would be better for me to leave and clear my head than rush a patient into surgery and possibly make a mistake because i was still focused on my latest run - in with robin . ok , i do n't think that is bad judgment . if anything -- steve : good doctors do n't let their emotions get in the way of treating patients . great doctors , like you and patrick , do n't second guess your skills . and never pass up a chance in the o.r . what were you looking for in my office ? lisa : i was looking for a pen to write a note . steve : you always have an answer , do n't you ? lisa : it 's the truth . steve : the fact that you 're lying to cover makes me think you 've been lying about everything . boiling emma 's toy , trying to inject robin . lisa : of course you 're siding with robin , because you 're just trying to get back at me for breaking things off -- steve : i have bent over backwards to be fair to you . but it 's becoming increasingly clear that you 've been playing me for a fool . lisa : oh , steve ! steve : what i ca n't figure out is for how long . did you sleep with me for leverage ? to keep me from firing you when you decided to start pulling all of these stupid stunts ? or was the time we spent together the last sane moments you had before diving headlong into this obsession with patrick ? lisa : ok , patrick was unhappy with his marriage so he cheated . somehow , he 's come out completely unscathed while robin has labeled me a psychopath . there 's absolutely no proof to back up any of her accusations . steve : i 've had enough of the distractions . i 've had enough of the disruptions and all the drama around here . if that syringe does surface , you will be fired . lisa : i 'm sorry . steve : you can leave now . go .

[ scene_break ] patrick : anything ? robin : no sign of the syringe , but more clues to follow . i 'm beginning to wonder if they actually lead anywhere or if this is just a big game to johnny . patrick : yeah , i went and talked to johnny to try and get him to drop the stupid fiasco , but no luck . he does n't think lisa 's crazy , just misunderstood . and in some twisted way , he thinks by helping lisa , it 's going to make up for the fact that he could n't save his sister . robin : `` what you seek stays in the family . `` patrick : what is that ? robin : the next clue . maybe johnny was talking about claudia . patrick : so what does that mean ? find the grave , find the syringe ? steve : patrick , there 's a trauma patient in the e.r . i need you on it . patrick : page mariucci . steve : mariucci 's in surgery . last i checked , you were the neurologist on call . patrick : yeah , chief , something came up . steve : well , put your personal life on the back burner . the patient takes priority . robin : it 's ok , i got it . patrick : ok .

[ scene_break ] michael : look , jason , i know the way the business works . dad might give the orders but you handle all the day to day operations . everything from overseeing shipments to running the warehouse , when you should be focusing on finding theo . not finding theo as revenge for what he did to sam and brenda , but to send a message to the other families . you do n't hurt someone we care about and get away with it . jason : michael ... growing up , you were exposed to things you never should have been . you never got the chance to have a normal childhood . i just want you to have a normal life . michael : look , you 're not going to let anyone else help you with theo . dad 's going to be too busy with brenda to help you on the business side . that leaves me . you need somebody you can trust . just face it , jason , that 's me . jason : it 'll never be you .
