dante : we found some footage on the video from franco 's cameraman but i do n't know if it 's going to be enough . how are things coming over at woodstock ? any sign of his mother ? yeah , it 's like she just disappeared into thin air . i guess we just keep knocking on doors . i 'll call you if we come up with anything new . all right . lulu : so lucky has n't found anything ? dante : no . you know what , this is frustrating . your nephew gets kidnapped from the hospital , franco and his mother vanish , and we chase non - existent leads and we come up empty . lulu : well , you 're working hard . dante : eh , obviously not hard enough . [ elizabeth groaning ] helena : well , if that was a nightmare , you deserve it . i mean , you were supposed to protect my great grandson . and yet that child was stolen right from under your nose because of your foolish choices .

[ door opens , closes ] diane : consent , right of inher ... well , i think we can assume that word is inheritance , so , yes , there is no doubt in my mind , this document that franco 's been attempting to hide from you -- this is an adoption contract . spinelli : the brusque lady does indeed have a keen eye for legal jargon . sam : if franco is setting up an adoption , that means the baby could be alive and well , jason : right . that also means franco 's planning on keeping the baby . diane : well , i think it 's safe to say that he wo n't be leaving any clues as to his whereabouts . spinelli : yes , on the contrary , he 'll do everything in his power to remain hidden . sam : you know what , i 'm gon na go to the hospital to see if i can find any records , dna , blood types , anything . spinelli : that would be helpful in identification if aiden is found . sam : no , when aiden is found . spinelli : do you think us finding this clue might give stone cold a reprieve ? diane : unfortunately , i doubt anything will delay your imminent return to prison . my dad ... matt : you 're doing great . i 'd say i 'd like to take all the credit , but you were in excellent health before you got shot . and your vitals look strong . things are moving quickly . mac : i could say the same about you and maxie . stop taking advantage of my daughter . matt : i am not . maxie just kissed me . if you really want to know , she is the one who wanted to take things to the next level . mac : what next level ? you two are having sex ? i do n't want to know that , all right . just whatever 's going on , i want it to end , now . maxie : mac , i love you , but you are so predictable . mac : i 'm just looking out for you . maxie : no , you 're a mother hen or father rooster or whatever . mac : sweetheart , you 're in an emotional place . you 're worried about me , ok , and this guy is taking advantage . matt : this guy ? maxie : did it look like he was taking advantage ? mac : yes . maxie : i kissed him . matt : my point exactly . mac : stay out of this . maxie : you are so knee - jerk about the guys in my life . you ca n't possibly be upset about me and matt . mac : there is no you and matt . i 'd rather have you be with spinelli . you know , the guy was a nincompoop and a social misfit , but at least you loved him . matt hunter is an ego - driven surgeon who 's treating on your fear that i 'll die . matt : i 'm still here , by the way . maxie : matt is everything that you want for me . he 's secure , he has social polish , and nothing to do with the mob . you should be happy about this . matt : ok , you know what , i do n't want you to be with me just 'cause it makes your dad happy . or spinelli jealous . either you want me for me , or i 'm not interested . brook lynn : hi . johnny : hey . brook lynn : so , um , are you here to reserve a table for my saturday show ?

johnny : well , you get it . no judgments , no lectures on how i should find a good , decent job . carly : you should , by the way . johnny : thank you . carly : but you never will . you 're addicted to the risk , and you do n't seem to care that you 're probably going to die before your time . johnny : like i said , you get it . carly : we should get together again . johnny : because it 'll make sonny see red ? carly : because we talked about common goals . johnny : heh . keep our options open , huh ? carly : yeah . nikolas : yes , tell the pis to check in so we can coordinate our efforts . thank you , alfred , thank you . and thank you for your concern . all right . lulu : hey . nikolas : hey . lulu : how are you holding up ? nikolas : as well as expected , i guess . lulu : well , dante and lucky are pulling out all the stops to find aiden . nikolas : yeah . lulu : have you gotten any sleep ? nikolas : no . but this is n't fatigue , this is frustration . my grandmother just decided to drop by and blame elizabeth for losing aiden . lulu : what ? that 's cruel , that 's ridiculous . your baby was stolen from a hospital . what could have elizabeth done ? nikolas : well , according to helena , elizabeth willfully worked herself into an early labor , and if she 'd only let me take care of her , franco would have never had access to aiden . lulu : well , that 's convoluted . nikolas : and on top of the hell that she 's already in , now she 's doubting herself . lulu : i 'm sorry . i should have been there for you and elizabeth during this pregnancy . i was just -- nikolas : no , it 's fine . you were busy , i understand . lulu : no , i was selfish . i was throwing all kinds of judgment at you and elizabeth , and that was wrong . everybody makes mistakes , nobody 's perfect , least of all , me . so ... you 're my brother . i love you and i 'm here now , you know , if you want to talk , and -- nikolas : thank you . thank you , i appreciate that . diane : however noble your motives , the fact remains you pled guilty to a class d felony and are now in the untenable position of having to serve out the rest of your sentence . jason : i do n't regret my decision . diane : yes , well , be that as it may , the authorities have the right to put you back in prison any time they want , and i have no legal means to stop them . so do me a favor , please . try not to kill anyone else in prison so you can get out 2 years , early parole . jason : ok , diane , i 'll do my best . diane : i 'm sorry . if i sound annoyed , it 's because i am . sonny 's obsession with john zacchara is making him more erratic every day . max is walking around on eggshells . i spend half my time with him trying to sooth his frayed nerves . jason : poor max . diane : yes , well , it would n't be so bad if my nerves were n't also frayed from having to take care of you . [ knock on door ] dante : hey . any progress ? spinelli : the jackal continues to toil . dante : we 're running out of time . diane : considering that attorney - client discussions are privileged , this is my cue to leave . dante : look , claire walsh 's superiors are putting on the pressure , and we need to maybe get you back to pentonville sooner than we thought . [ computer beeps ] spinelli : success ! ha ! the jackal has a location for the demented one . johnny : hey . glad i ran into you . olivia : yeah , i got ta get back to work . johnny : no , listen , i want to clear a few things up about last night . olivia : you know , john , you do n't owe me any explanations . johnny : well , carly showed up on my doorstep , uninvited . olivia : yeah ! and she stayed and you talked and you flirted . it 's your life . it 's not mine , ok ? but you know what , i really got ta say , it 's getting a little bit on the nose here the way you just keep pinballing around between every woman that has any connection at all to sonny . first to me , then kristina and now carly ? with a slight detour through brook lynn , whose family is close to sonny ? i mean , who 's next on your stud list , john ? uh , alexis ? how about my cousin connie ? johnny : oh , you honestly think i 'd show you that level of disrespect ? olivia : i do n't know what to believe anymore . johnny : carly and kristina have their own issues with sonny , all right ? they came to me , unsolicited . olivia : yes , and you played right into it . you stoke their anger because you hate sonny and you want him to pay for what he did to your sister . but you got ta ask at some point , john , how is this affecting everyone around you ? there is a ripple effect that you are ignoring here because you 're so blinded by your hatred . sonny is really worth all this ? to make sonny suffer ? johnny : see , there it is . there it is . every time . you just wanted to protect sonny , as always . nikolas : thank you for letting me be here with you . he 's just perfect . he 's perfect . elizabeth : there 's only one problem . nikolas : problem ? what , there 's 10 fingers , 10 toes , that 's what i count at least . elizabeth : he does n't have a name . nikolas : oh , right . elizabeth : have you come up with any ? nikolas : i was n't sure that you wanted my opinion on the subject . elizabeth : oh , i 'm really , i 'm sorry for shutting you out . nikolas : it 's ok . elizabeth : so what do you want to name him ? nikolas : mmm , spencer suggested we call him buzz lightyear . elizabeth : buzz lightyear cassadine ? nikolas : it 's easier to pronounce than most of the names in our family . elizabeth : that would definitely get cameron and jake 's vote , but i think we should go with something a little more traditional 'cause i do n't want social services showing up at my house . nikolas : what if we name him after your father ? elizabeth : jeff cassadine ? that would n't be a -- i was n't really close to him , anyway . but you know what name i have always liked ? nikolas : hmm ? elizabeth : aiden . nikolas : aiden cassadine , ok . elizabeth : aiden . nikolas : but , you know , technically , he would have to be called aiden alexi nikolosovich cassadine . elizabeth : that just rolls right off the tongue , does n't it ? [ giggles ] nikolas : is that a yes ? elizabeth : i think we just agreed on something . nikolas : ok . then welcome to the world , aiden cassadine . lulu : cappuccino , no sugar . nikolas : oh , thanks . lulu : is that aiden 's i d bracelet ? nikolas : yeah . it 's the only thing we have left of him . this , and what , 5 photos . lulu : dante and lucky will find him . nikolas : i 'm really trying to hang onto that . lulu : what helena said about it being elizabeth 's fault that your baby was taken ... does part of you believe that ? nikolas : what ? no ! no . elizabeth was in good health . she had every right to keep working . i mean , come on , she had no way of knowing that aiden was going to be born early and franco would target him . she 's devastated . and now helena 's accusations are only making things worse . lulu : but you wanted her to quit and move in with you to wyndemere . nikolas : i know , i know , we fought about that , about how hard she was pushing herself . but part of that was just me trying to control her . i do n't fault elizabeth . at all . on the contrary , i feel terrible for stressing her out in the first place . she 's a great mother . she tried to do everything right for aiden . i have nothing but admiration for her . lulu : i can see what this is costing you . nikolas : yeah . lulu : i 'm so sorry that i ever judged you . nikolas : thank you . steve : epiphany said you wanted to see me . elizabeth : i want to check myself out of this hospital . if aiden was with me , i 'd already be home . i miss cameron and jake , and they need me to help them understand what has happened to their baby brother . steve : i 'm still concerned about you . i know you do n't want to hear it -- elizabeth : and i really want to apologize . steve : lizzie , you had every reason to be upset about hospital security . you have no idea how terrible i feel . my own nephew stolen right out from under us . elizabeth : i know , i know . and i 'm sorry i lashed out at you . and i know you 're just as upset as any of us . but the truth is , i 'm not exactly blameless here . franco would n't have been able to take aiden if i had carried him to term , which probably would have happened if i listened to nikolas and just taken it easy . steve : i do n't know what idiot told you that , but it 's absurd . you are not to blame for any of this . spinelli : the jackal 's managed to discern the remaining numbers from the zip code on the demented one 's document . it 's for the city of astoria . astoria , oregon . jason : oregon . are you sure about that ? spinelli : yes , the image is clear , 97103 . dante : well , that would make sense . i mean , if he wants to adopt this kid , he 'd want to keep a low profile , right ? people on the opposite coast would n't be as familiar with the kidnapping . jason : i think that could work to our advantage 'cause franco ca n't hide in a place like astoria . spinelli : he might not even deem it necessary to hide . as far as he knows , he 's concealed his dealings even from his closest conspirator . jason : you 're right . this is the first clue that franco did n't leave on purpose . [ cell phone rings ] jason : he wo n't see us coming . dante : it 's lucky . hey , we got a lead . looks like franco might be in astoria , oregon . as a mom i believe books brighten a child 's future . maya : [ chuckles ] that bad ? ethan : chicken broth , applesauce and orange juice . maya : it 's healthy . ethan : yeah , i 'd recuperate faster with a beer . ahh . at least i have a pretty visitor to keep me company . maya : well , i actually came by to thank you . you have done your good deed for the day . ethan : oh , i am beaming with pride . or i will be , as soon as you tell me what my good deed was . maya : well , a girl came into the e.r . today with a gash on her arm , and i just , i took charge , i treated her , and i sent her off . it was just stitches , i know , not brain surgery , but i did n't freeze , so i 'm happy . ethan : see ? i told you , you were being too hard on yourself . maya : well , somehow it helped that you had confidence in me . it was like picking it up through osmosis or something . ethan : through osmosis , that 's doctor speak right there . maya : well , anyway , thanks . ethan : you know , for my good deed , i 'm going to need a reward . maya : i 'm afraid to ask . ethan : i think i 'm going to start with a sponge bath , and we 'll make it a quickie , like 15 , 20 minutes . and then , from there , my shoulder 's a little achy , so you can throw in a massage . maya : that is so tempting . but , no , i have patients i need to get back to . ethan : all right . some other time , then . maya : you know what , why wait , right ? i 'll get epiphany to get right on that . ethan : no , no , no ! maya ! i just remembered , i had a sponge bath last night ! maya ! brook lynn : ok , great . all right . well , i 'll catch him later . thank you . carly : what the hell are you doing here ? you 're supposed to be cozying up with dante . brook lynn : yeah , and i just got off the phone with a neighbor who saw dante leave . which means he 's not home , carly . but even if he was , he 's working the case like i told you . carly : it 's just one excuse after another with you , is n't it ? brook lynn : dante is working a case , which means he 's not in the mood for wine and candlelight . but , johnny on the other hand . carly : i told you to stay away from johnny . brook lynn : yeah , why ?

[ knock on door ] matt : sorry to interrupt , but i need to run a check - up . maxie : oh , he 's all yours . have fun inspecting your work . matt : yeah , so , um , last night we -- mac : are you taking advantage of my daughter 's gratitude , and putting the moves on her ? ethan : well , here we are , alone at last in a room with a bed . and you 're going to hook me back up to machines . maya : you are my patient . not my date . ethan : oh , i 'm so much more fun as the latter . maya : i know what you 're trying to do . you overhead me and dr . webber , and so now you 're trying to cheer me up . ethan : is it working ? maya : i appreciate the effort , but i seriously do n't know why you 're being so nice to me . ethan : well , you 're kinda cute . i mean , maya , you 've been beating yourself up about this ever since it happened . i mean , give it a rest , you know . it 's over , i 'm fine . maya : yeah , no thanks to me . ethan : so , ok , you slipped up once . maya : twice . i told you before , i froze up when my boyfriend died in front of me . ethan : yeah , that 's why doctors generally are n't supposed to work on people they know , people they care about , you know ? because doctors have emotions that get in the way sometimes . i 'm sure if a stranger crashed in with a medical emergency , you 'd be on the top of your game . maya : i 'm a ward . my family is all about excellence . we 're community leaders , not charity cases . if i 'm not great , i might as well get out of medicine altogether . olivia : you are just going after johnny to piss sonny off because you know how much they hate each other . of course , what you 're doing could get john killed , but you do n't give a damn about that 'cause it 's all about carly and what you want , as usual . carly : you may want to dial it down a bit . i 'm your employer . olivia : ok , with all due respect , employer , leave johnny alone . carly : you know what , because you do such a good job , i 'm not going to fire you for mouthing off . my life is private . you do n't get to comment on it . olivia : carly , you and i used to be close , ok . things have changed because of circumstances beyond our control . but i am asking you now , out of respect for our former friendship , please leave john out of this . carly : what happens between me and johnny is our business . no one else 's . olivia : heh . wow . you really are a piece of work . carly : i 'm just putting my cards on the table . olivia : ok . it 's good to know what i 'm dealing with . claire : i am fresh out of arguments . all my superiors are seeing is a felon out of prison , and i 'm throwing him to a serial killer . not exactly solid legal procedure . dante : well , then , blame it on me . remind your bosses that i 'm personally overseeing jason . claire : oh , believe me , i 've made that point very clear to the powers that be . if anyone 's going to get thrown to the wolves , it 's you . dante : hmm , good . good to know . claire : look , all i 'm saying is , give us something on franco or jason is behind bars within the hour . dante : claire , claire , wait , we need jason free . he knows how franco thinks . he 's the bait . claire : well , we used him as bait before and franco is still loose . dante : but he 's the best chance we have to catch this guy . you take jason off the grid , who knows how many people franco will kill . and what about the baby ? claire , 5 : 00 p.m. that was the deal . that 's all i 'm asking . claire : i ca n't make any promises , all right ? i have my career to protect , too . lulu : wow . her career is more important than a baby . that woman is cold . you need jason to catch franco . dante : yeah , so we better make the best of the time that we have . wish me luck . [ door opens , closes ] diane : consent , right of inher ... well , i think we can assume that word is inheritance , so , yes , there is no doubt in my mind , this document that franco 's been attempting to hide from you -- this is an adoption contract . spinelli : the brusque lady does indeed have a keen eye for legal jargon . sam : if franco is setting up an adoption , that means the baby could be alive and well , jason : right . that also means franco 's planning on keeping the baby . diane : well , i think it 's safe to say that he wo n't be leaving any clues as to his whereabouts . spinelli : yes , on the contrary , he 'll do everything in his power to remain hidden . sam : you know what , i 'm gon na go to the hospital to see if i can find any records , dna , blood types , anything . spinelli : that would be helpful in identification if aiden is found . sam : no , when aiden is found . spinelli : do you think us finding this clue might give stone cold a reprieve ? diane : unfortunately , i doubt anything will delay your imminent return to prison . my dad ... matt : you 're doing great . i 'd say i 'd like to take all the credit , but you were in excellent health before you got shot . and your vitals look strong . things are moving quickly . mac : i could say the same about you and maxie . stop taking advantage of my daughter . matt : i am not . maxie just kissed me . if you really want to know , she is the one who wanted to take things to the next level . mac : what next level ? you two are having sex ? i do n't want to know that , all right . just whatever 's going on , i want it to end , now . maxie : mac , i love you , but you are so predictable . mac : i 'm just looking out for you . maxie : no , you 're a mother hen or father rooster or whatever . mac : sweetheart , you 're in an emotional place . you 're worried about me , ok , and this guy is taking advantage . matt : this guy ? maxie : did it look like he was taking advantage ? mac : yes . maxie : i kissed him . matt : my point exactly . mac : stay out of this . maxie : you are so knee - jerk about the guys in my life . you ca n't possibly be upset about me and matt . mac : there is no you and matt . i 'd rather have you be with spinelli . you know , the guy was a nincompoop and a social misfit , but at least you loved him . matt hunter is an ego - driven surgeon who 's treating on your fear that i 'll die . matt : i 'm still here , by the way . maxie : matt is everything that you want for me . he 's secure , he has social polish , and nothing to do with the mob . you should be happy about this . matt : ok , you know what , i do n't want you to be with me just 'cause it makes your dad happy . or spinelli jealous . either you want me for me , or i 'm not interested . brook lynn : hi . johnny : hey . brook lynn : so , um , are you here to reserve a table for my saturday show ? johnny : ah , can i take a rain check ? brook lynn : yeah , that 's -- ok . johnny : i 'm serious . i just , uh , well , i think carly was very smart by hiring you . brook lynn : thank you . johnny : yeah . speaking of which , is she around here somewhere ? brook lynn : yeah , she was here earlier , so ... johnny : right . i 'll go check her office -- brook lynn : johnny , i actually had a really great time last night at jake 's . johnny : i did , too . carly : brook . sound guy 's here . why do n't you go talk to him ? brook lynn : ok . sure . see you around . johnny : uh - huh . carly : hi . johnny : hi . carly : what brings you by ? johnny : this . you left this at my place last night . carly : did i leave that there ? johnny : yeah , you did . carly : oh . johnny : yeah . carly : thank you . johnny : you 're welcome . carly : last night was fun . johnny : yeah . carly : you 're easy to talk to . johnny : and you kind of surprised me . carly : how 's that ? johnny : well , you get it . no judgments , no lectures on how i should find a good , decent job . carly : you should , by the way . johnny : thank you . carly : but you never will . you 're addicted to the risk , and you do n't seem to care that you 're probably going to die before your time . johnny : like i said , you get it . carly : we should get together again . johnny : because it 'll make sonny see red ? carly : because we talked about common goals . johnny : heh . keep our options open , huh ? carly : yeah . nikolas : yes , tell the pis to check in so we can coordinate our efforts . thank you , alfred , thank you . and thank you for your concern . all right . lulu : hey . nikolas : hey . lulu : how are you holding up ? nikolas : as well as expected , i guess . lulu : well , dante and lucky are pulling out all the stops to find aiden . nikolas : yeah . lulu : have you gotten any sleep ? nikolas : no . but this is n't fatigue , this is frustration . my grandmother just decided to drop by and blame elizabeth for losing aiden . lulu : what ? that 's cruel , that 's ridiculous . your baby was stolen from a hospital . what could have elizabeth done ? nikolas : well , according to helena , elizabeth willfully worked herself into an early labor , and if she 'd only let me take care of her , franco would have never had access to aiden . lulu : well , that 's convoluted . nikolas : and on top of the hell that she 's already in , now she 's doubting herself . lulu : i 'm sorry . i should have been there for you and elizabeth during this pregnancy . i was just -- nikolas : no , it 's fine . you were busy , i understand . lulu : no , i was selfish . i was throwing all kinds of judgment at you and elizabeth , and that was wrong . everybody makes mistakes , nobody 's perfect , least of all , me . so ... you 're my brother . i love you and i 'm here now , you know , if you want to talk , and -- nikolas : thank you . thank you , i appreciate that . diane : however noble your motives , the fact remains you pled guilty to a class d felony and are now in the untenable position of having to serve out the rest of your sentence . jason : i do n't regret my decision . diane : yes , well , be that as it may , the authorities have the right to put you back in prison any time they want , and i have no legal means to stop them . so do me a favor , please . try not to kill anyone else in prison so you can get out 2 years , early parole . jason : ok , diane , i 'll do my best . diane : i 'm sorry . if i sound annoyed , it 's because i am . sonny 's obsession with john zacchara is making him more erratic every day . max is walking around on eggshells . i spend half my time with him trying to sooth his frayed nerves . jason : poor max . diane : yes , well , it would n't be so bad if my nerves were n't also frayed from having to take care of you . [ knock on door ] dante : hey . any progress ? spinelli : the jackal continues to toil . dante : we 're running out of time . diane : considering that attorney - client discussions are privileged , this is my cue to leave . dante : look , claire walsh 's superiors are putting on the pressure , and we need to maybe get you back to pentonville sooner than we thought . [ computer beeps ] spinelli : success ! ha ! the jackal has a location for the demented one . johnny : hey . glad i ran into you . olivia : yeah , i got ta get back to work . johnny : no , listen , i want to clear a few things up about last night . olivia : you know , john , you do n't owe me any explanations . johnny : well , carly showed up on my doorstep , uninvited . olivia : yeah ! and she stayed and you talked and you flirted . it 's your life . it 's not mine , ok ? but you know what , i really got ta say , it 's getting a little bit on the nose here the way you just keep pinballing around between every woman that has any connection at all to sonny . first to me , then kristina and now carly ? with a slight detour through brook lynn , whose family is close to sonny ? i mean , who 's next on your stud list , john ? uh , alexis ? how about my cousin connie ? johnny : oh , you honestly think i 'd show you that level of disrespect ? olivia : i do n't know what to believe anymore . johnny : carly and kristina have their own issues with sonny , all right ? they came to me , unsolicited . olivia : yes , and you played right into it . you stoke their anger because you hate sonny and you want him to pay for what he did to your sister . but you got ta ask at some point , john , how is this affecting everyone around you ? there is a ripple effect that you are ignoring here because you 're so blinded by your hatred . sonny is really worth all this ? to make sonny suffer ? johnny : see , there it is . there it is . every time . you just wanted to protect sonny , as always . nikolas : thank you for letting me be here with you . he 's just perfect . he 's perfect . elizabeth : there 's only one problem . nikolas : problem ? what , there 's 10 fingers , 10 toes , that 's what i count at least . elizabeth : he does n't have a name . nikolas : oh , right . elizabeth : have you come up with any ? nikolas : i was n't sure that you wanted my opinion on the subject . elizabeth : oh , i 'm really , i 'm sorry for shutting you out . nikolas : it 's ok . elizabeth : so what do you want to name him ? nikolas : mmm , spencer suggested we call him buzz lightyear . elizabeth : buzz lightyear cassadine ? nikolas : it 's easier to pronounce than most of the names in our family . elizabeth : that would definitely get cameron and jake 's vote , but i think we should go with something a little more traditional 'cause i do n't want social services showing up at my house . nikolas : what if we name him after your father ? elizabeth : jeff cassadine ? that would n't be a -- i was n't really close to him , anyway . but you know what name i have always liked ? nikolas : hmm ? elizabeth : aiden . nikolas : aiden cassadine , ok . elizabeth : aiden . nikolas : but , you know , technically , he would have to be called aiden alexi nikolosovich cassadine . elizabeth : that just rolls right off the tongue , does n't it ? [ giggles ] nikolas : is that a yes ? elizabeth : i think we just agreed on something . nikolas : ok . then welcome to the world , aiden cassadine . lulu : cappuccino , no sugar . nikolas : oh , thanks . lulu : is that aiden 's i d bracelet ? nikolas : yeah . it 's the only thing we have left of him . this , and what , 5 photos . lulu : dante and lucky will find him . nikolas : i 'm really trying to hang onto that . lulu : what helena said about it being elizabeth 's fault that your baby was taken ... does part of you believe that ? nikolas : what ? no ! no . elizabeth was in good health . she had every right to keep working . i mean , come on , she had no way of knowing that aiden was going to be born early and franco would target him . she 's devastated . and now helena 's accusations are only making things worse . lulu : but you wanted her to quit and move in with you to wyndemere . nikolas : i know , i know , we fought about that , about how hard she was pushing herself . but part of that was just me trying to control her . i do n't fault elizabeth . at all . on the contrary , i feel terrible for stressing her out in the first place . she 's a great mother . she tried to do everything right for aiden . i have nothing but admiration for her . lulu : i can see what this is costing you . nikolas : yeah . lulu : i 'm so sorry that i ever judged you . nikolas : thank you . steve : epiphany said you wanted to see me . elizabeth : i want to check myself out of this hospital . if aiden was with me , i 'd already be home . i miss cameron and jake , and they need me to help them understand what has happened to their baby brother . steve : i 'm still concerned about you . i know you do n't want to hear it -- elizabeth : and i really want to apologize . steve : lizzie , you had every reason to be upset about hospital security . you have no idea how terrible i feel . my own nephew stolen right out from under us . elizabeth : i know , i know . and i 'm sorry i lashed out at you . and i know you 're just as upset as any of us . but the truth is , i 'm not exactly blameless here . franco would n't have been able to take aiden if i had carried him to term , which probably would have happened if i listened to nikolas and just taken it easy . steve : i do n't know what idiot told you that , but it 's absurd . you are not to blame for any of this . spinelli : the jackal 's managed to discern the remaining numbers from the zip code on the demented one 's document . it 's for the city of astoria . astoria , oregon . jason : oregon . are you sure about that ? spinelli : yes , the image is clear , 97103 . dante : well , that would make sense . i mean , if he wants to adopt this kid , he 'd want to keep a low profile , right ? people on the opposite coast would n't be as familiar with the kidnapping . jason : i think that could work to our advantage 'cause franco ca n't hide in a place like astoria . spinelli : he might not even deem it necessary to hide . as far as he knows , he 's concealed his dealings even from his closest conspirator . jason : you 're right . this is the first clue that franco did n't leave on purpose . [ cell phone rings ] jason : he wo n't see us coming . dante : it 's lucky . hey , we got a lead . looks like franco might be in astoria , oregon . as a mom i believe books brighten a child 's future . maya : [ chuckles ] that bad ? ethan : chicken broth , applesauce and orange juice . maya : it 's healthy . ethan : yeah , i 'd recuperate faster with a beer . ahh . at least i have a pretty visitor to keep me company . maya : well , i actually came by to thank you . you have done your good deed for the day . ethan : oh , i am beaming with pride . or i will be , as soon as you tell me what my good deed was . maya : well , a girl came into the e.r . today with a gash on her arm , and i just , i took charge , i treated her , and i sent her off . it was just stitches , i know , not brain surgery , but i did n't freeze , so i 'm happy . ethan : see ? i told you , you were being too hard on yourself . maya : well , somehow it helped that you had confidence in me . it was like picking it up through osmosis or something . ethan : through osmosis , that 's doctor speak right there . maya : well , anyway , thanks . ethan : you know , for my good deed , i 'm going to need a reward . maya : i 'm afraid to ask . ethan : i think i 'm going to start with a sponge bath , and we 'll make it a quickie , like 15 , 20 minutes . and then , from there , my shoulder 's a little achy , so you can throw in a massage . maya : that is so tempting . but , no , i have patients i need to get back to . ethan : all right . some other time , then . maya : you know what , why wait , right ? i 'll get epiphany to get right on that . ethan : no , no , no ! maya ! i just remembered , i had a sponge bath last night ! maya ! brook lynn : ok , great . all right . well , i 'll catch him later . thank you . carly : what the hell are you doing here ? you 're supposed to be cozying up with dante . brook lynn : yeah , and i just got off the phone with a neighbor who saw dante leave . which means he 's not home , carly . but even if he was , he 's working the case like i told you . carly : it 's just one excuse after another with you , is n't it ? brook lynn : dante is working a case , which means he 's not in the mood for wine and candlelight . but , johnny on the other hand . carly : i told you to stay away from johnny . brook lynn : yeah , why ?

[ sighs ] and i tricked you into helping me hack into maxie 's medical records . that 's when i discovered that maxie miscarried . and i - i confronted her about it , but , of course , she denied it , so i - i threatened to go to the lab and check dante and lulu 's remaining embryos , and that 's when she confessed ... [ sighs ] that you were the father . spinelli : you told me it was dante and lulu 's baby . ellie : i lied . spinelli : why ? why would you lie to me ? lulu : we love spinelli , but we do n't want daddy thinking of him every time he looks at you . dante : no . let 's get to know this little angel a little bit better . we 'll come up with the right name . lulu : i know a name that wo n't work . georgie . maxie : mom . felicia : right here , sweetheart . we are so proud of you . mac : yeah . you came through with flying colors . maxie : wh - where 's georgie ? mac : what do you mean , honey ? maxie : i was with her . georgie was here . lulu : what are we gon na name you , little miss ? maxie wanted us to call you georgie after her sister , but we told her that she should save that name for her own little girl . still , i 'm sure that georgie sounds familiar . i know that maxie 's been calling you that for the last few weeks . dante : you were worried she was getting a little too attached to her ? lulu : i was worried about a lot of things , from the size of our apartment to what baby clothes we should buy . i was especially worried about maxie 's pregnancy heels that were only 3 inches high . this is her idea of sensible . and while i know that you are too sweet and supportive to call me out on it , we both know that i bring new meaning to the words `` control freak `` when it comes to her . dante : i think you 're just being a conscientious mother . if you felt that maxie was getting too attached to her , then that 's probably what was happening . do you think that 's gon na be a problem going forward ? felicia : sweetheart , there was a problem with the delivery . you had a c - section , and then you hemorrhaged . mac : you fought hard . you fought hard , but you came back to us . maxie : but georgie -- she -- she showed me ... mac : maxie , maxie , they gave you a lot of pain killers , okay ? you might be a little confused for a while . maxie : no , no . it 's okay . i remember . i - i came back for my baby . where is she ? where 's my baby ? olivia : something could be wrong with our grandbaby , and i ca n't warn anyone , 'cause we 're stuck in the damn elevator . sonny : olivia , can you get a signal ? i got to -- i got to call connie back . olivia : i got nothing . i got nothing , but you 're more than welcome to try . sonny : there 's got to be a help button here . olivia : i already tried that , sonny . sonny : well , they have to answer . 'cause they ca n't leave us locked in here like this . open the damn door ! olivia : okay . we 're stuck between floors , sonny . the doors are not going to open , but we 're in a hospital . okay ? so it wo n't take them very long to understand -- sonny : olivia . olivia . if they do n't open -- if they do n't open the door , i 'm gon na freak out . you know that . get me out of here ! michael : yeah , i do n't -- i do n't know if i told you this or not , but ... [ sighs ] aj 's an alcoholic . kiki : i did n't know . michael : yeah , he was pretty bad . you know , he was in and out of rehab when he was younger , and he was in some pretty bad accidents . and he 's been sober ever since he 's been back , or , well , at least i - i thought that he was . kiki : you think he 's been drinking this whole time without you knowing ? michael : i - i hope not . i just -- he has n't been acting any differently or anything like that , it 's just -- only until recently . elizabeth found him at the floating rib getting completely hammered , and -- and she tried to get him to come home . he turned on her . he got vicious , so she -- she took his keys and she , uh -- she took off . kiki : she took his keys so he 's not driving . that 's -- that 's good . that 's something . michael : yeah . the bartender said that he called for a cab , and the company records show that he was dropped off here . but when i got here , all i found was a bottle and the paper with your -- your headline in it . kiki : i was there the day of the vote . i saw how much elq meant to aj , and now he 's lost it because of me . michael : no , it 's not -- it 's not your fault , okay ? aj was outmaneuvered , that 's all . it 's just if it was any other job , any other company , aj would have been okay . it 's just that elq was like his -- his symbol . you know , his -- his chance to prove that he was just as good as the rest of the quartermaines . even though the quartermaines are n't all that great . kiki : some of them are . michael : anyway , um , the loss much have been too much for aj , and ... the safe 's pen . kiki : do you think that could have been aj ? michael : i do n't know what he -- i do n't know what he 'd want from the safe . aj : you thought you could screw me over , did n't you ? huh ? you thought wrong . connie : [ crying ] aj , please , please . you do n't want to do this , okay ? think of michael -- what it would do to him . he loves you . aj : michael loves sonny ! connie : he loves you , too . aj : no , why would he ? why would he love me , huh ? everybody 's told him from the time he was little that i was a loser and a drunk and i was n't fit to be his father . you -- you prove them all right . huh ? you destroyed everything that i built . you took away the last chance i had with my son . oh , no -- oh , oh , i 'm sorry . i mean -- i mean sonny 's son . michael corinthos iii just rolls off the tongue , does n't it ? you know , he was even named after sonny . did you know that ? considers him his father , huh ? he loves him . he 's proud of him . [ scoffs ] he thinks that sonny 's a big man . and he thinks i 'm nothing . because of you . connie : no . you are wrong about that , aj you can fix this . you can . aj : you -- you told me that i did n't have the guts to get payback . connie : what ? i never said that . aj : yeah . connie : i would never say that . i do n't feel that way . aj : no , that 's exactly what you said , and you believe it , too . otherwise , you would n't have written that article . yeah , you dared me to get payback for destroying my life . well , guess what , bitch ? it 's payback time . connie : aj , please . please do n't . michael : there 's money , some old jewelry , documents . i still do n't understand what aj would want with any of this . kiki : maybe it had to do with elq or the will or the charter . he 's probably trying to fight the takeover . michael : yeah , maybe . kiki : or if he 's that wasted , he could be thinking anything . i do n't know . michael : yeah , that 's exactly why i need to find him . he 's out there right now completely drunk thinking that he lost everything . kiki : i get that . well , i know that franco is n't wasted , but he did just have brain surgery . and he lost a daughter that he never really had . michael : yeah . anything could happen to either of them . kiki : i 'm really scared , michael . michael : yeah . me , too . sonny : olivia , i 'm starting to feel -- i 'm starting to freak out right now . olivia : okay . sonny . look at me . look at me . okay ? hey , hey , hey ! hey ! look at me . look in my eyes . sonny , it 's okay . sonny : i got to get out of here . olivia : it 's okay . you 're gon na be okay . it 's okay . just look at me . sonny : no , i do n't know . olivia : look at me . okay ? i 'm here . sonny : i 'm feeling trapped here . olivia : i understand . sonny : you know what happens . olivia : yes , i do . i understand . sonny : [ breathing rapidly ] olivia : sonny , it 's okay . just stay with me and look into my eyes and breathe . you 're gon na be okay , sonny . sonny : i know . i just got to get out of her . olivia : listen to me . listen to me ! sonny . deke is not here right now . that 's son of a bitch is dead and gone and he 's buried and you are safe . you are safe here with me . it 's just you and me here . and you know you can trust me , right ? you know that . sonny : [ sniffles ] olivia : you know that , right ? sonny : yeah . olivia : okay . so stay with me . look in my eyes . i am gon na get you through this . you can do it . okay ? okay . alexis : i am sorry . i barely know you . [ chuckles ] derek : no need to apologize . it 's always flattering to be hugged by a beautiful woman . alexis : yeah , uh , well , i 'm just really -- we 're really grateful to you . uh , not that there 's any guarantee , because we 've been warned by the doctor that , uh , even if there is a match , that danny 's going to have to go through a long process , and there are ri -- which is -- you 've just really improved the odds tremendously . sam : yeah . we -- we ca n't thank you enough . you 're giving danny a fighting chance . derek : well , i just hope that my bone marrow works . although , um , i probably should warn you , um ... your son might grow up to love fast cars and single- barrel bourbon . sam : [ chuckles ] i really do n't care what he grows up to love as long as i see him grow up . i did n't -- i did n't think this was gon na be an option until you . derek : listen , how -- how can i help this , uh , go as fast as possible ? alexis : does dr. clay even know there 's a donor ? sam : uh ... i do n't know . i do n't know . i should probably go and tell him , though . i can not wait for you to meet him , mr. wells . derek : hey , if your son 's gon na be using my bone marrow , i think it 's time you start calling me derek . sam : okay , well , thank you , derek . alexis : [ sighs ] so , uh , i get the feeling that you do n't want us to make a fuss over you . derek : [ chuckles ] well , let 's just say that you can , um , thank me by keeping this low - key . alexis : oh , yeah . yeah , of course . um , i mean , you do n't see this from my behavior , but i - i like things understated as well . derek : and i - i ca n't even imagine how hard this has been for you , though . alexis : it 's been really hard . i mean , the hardest part is -- is there 's so many ups and downs and , uh , you know , things soar and then they plummet . we actually had a donor , and , uh , it was a blood relative , and it turned out that he had cancer cells in his brain , and it , uh , made him illegible . derek : [ sighs ] well , that must have been a blow . alexis : it was a blow . uh , sam , of course , was devastated , because we had been through everyone in the family except her -- uh ... derek : except ... ? alexis : [ sighs ] except her father . spinelli : how could you not tell me that maxie was carrying my child ? ellie : damian , i wanted to so bad . but maxie begged me not to say anything . she was ashamed that she lost the first baby , and she was so afraid of disappointing dante and lulu . they were so invested in the baby . she told me they 'd be devastated , and i believed her . so i collaborated with maxie to keep it a secret . spinelli : ellie , you barely know them . and ... i 'm supposed to be the person you love . why would you not tell me that i had a child ? ! ellie : i 'm sorry ! spinelli : okay , stop apologizing and just give me -- give me a reason that i can understand . how -- how could you not tell me ? how could you deny me my own child ? how could you keep something so momentous , so life - changing from the person that you say you love ? ! ellie : [ crying ] because i was afraid of losing you . lulu : i 'm not really sure where maxie is on her attachment to our little miss , but i 'm thinking that now that she 's not carrying the baby , she 's letting go . dante : i hope so . lulu : i know maxie . she 'll be fine . maxie : where 's my little girl ? felicia : she 's with lulu and dante . and she 's absolutely perfect . mac : maxie , you did an amazing job carrying the baby for them , but right now , you 've lost a lot of blood and you 're confused . maxie : no , no . i remember . i saw her . she 's beautiful . felicia : everyone says that she 's beautiful and wonderful , and you 've been an amazing surrogate . mac : but maxie , the baby belongs to dante and lulu . maxie : no . no , she does n't . she 's mine . derek : are you telling me that , um , sam 's father refused to get tested ? alexis : no . uh , i 'm telling you that sam 's father did n't get tested because i - i do n't know who he is . derek : sam 's adopted . alexis : no . i only knew sam 's father for one night . derek : oh , gosh . i 'm -- i 'm so sorry . you -- you do n't need to give me an explanation . alexis : uh , it 's okay . um , i did n't , uh , remember much about sam 's father until danny got sick , and then i - i remembered that i met him in new hampshire . derek : new hampshire ? really ? i , uh -- [ chuckles ] i do n't know why that i thought you were from new york . alexis : no , i - i worked in new york for several years . i went to school in new hampshire -- a boarding school . derek : which , uh -- which school was that ? alexis : briarton - griggs . it 's an all - girls school . derek : oh . alexis : uh , and then i remembered something else about him . i remember his name . you know , it was n't a common name like tom or mike . it was more unique than that . derek : so , what was his name since it was n't , uh , tom or mike ? alexis : julian . michael : i miss you . [ cell phone rings ] kiki : i - i have to take this . morgan ? no . no , franco is n't here . okay , yeah . uh , i 'll be there soon . thank you . i have to go , michael . morgan 's waiting for me . michael : kiki . do you believe morgan ? kiki : i asked him , point blank , and he denied it . michael : and that 's enough for you ? kiki : i married him , michael . i made a vow to him . i have to make this work . michael : that 's exactly what morgan 's counting on . kiki : morgan 's a good husband , okay ? i was at the hospital , and he was there for me when i really needed him . morgan 's good to me . and i have to be good to him , too . sonny : yeah , thanks . olivia : you okay now ? sonny : yeah , i 'm better . uh , 'cause of you . olivia : yeah ? sonny : i 'm , uh -- olivia : do n't say it . you do n't have to say anything . i understand . connie 's in your heart . she 's your girl . that 's okay . we are ... us . you know , and we got our son and we got a beautiful granddaughter now . sonny : olivia falconeri , you 're one hell of a woman . olivia : even though i got us stuck in this dumb elevator ? [ door opens ] sonny : i 'll be damned . olivia : i told you they 'd get us out of here . sonny : [ groans ] olivia : [ sighs ] sonny : [ sighs ] olivia : you see that ? look at you . sonny : yeah ? olivia : good as new . get out of here . go find my cousin , okay ? sonny : you sure ? olivia : i 'm positive . i 'm gon na go check on our grandbaby and make sure that that dog i saw was n't trying to warn us about anything . sonny : yeah . make sure you take the stairs , 'cause that 's what i 'm gon na do . olivia : i 'm gon na risk it , okay ? i promise i 'll only press one button at a time . sonny : thank you . maxie : where is she ? felicia : sweetheart , i know how hard this has been , carrying her all these months , all the pain that you 've suffered , but that little girl is lulu and dante 's biological child . mac : they created her , and you did an incredible job . but the baby does n't belong to you . they 're her parents . maxie : no . she 's mine . and i want her . mac : okay , maxie . you need to calm down , please . maxie : n - no . i - i want my baby . felicia : i 'm calling a doctor . mac : that 's a good idea . sweetheart , please , calm down . maxie : no ! you 're not listening to me . she is mine -- my baby -- mine and spinelli 's . spinelli : you were afraid of losing me ? so you lied to me about my own child ? ! ellie : damian , you were in love with maxie for years . and when she finally decided that she loved you , too , if you had n't been with me , you 'd have gone back to her . i mean , you slept with her when you thought that i broke up with you . spinelli : i thought you forgave me . ellie : i did forgive you . but i did n't forget . and then i told you that i did n't want children , and we argued bitterly . so when maxie revealed that you were the father of her child , i could n't help but wonder how long it would take before you left me for her and -- and for your child . spinelli : [ sniffles ] that 's why you told me you 'd reconsider having a family . ellie : [ crying ] spinelli : you told me you were willing to have a baby because you loved me . but that was n't it at all , was it ? it was because of your guilt . because you were allowing dante and lulu to take my child and raise it as their own . ellie : damian , i wanted to tell you . spinelli : but you did n't , did you ? ! lulu : i do n't think i 've ever been happier . dante : me neither . spinelli : [ muffled ] oh , my god , ellie ! how could you do this to me ? ! god , i do n't -- i feel like i do n't even know you at all ! ellie : no ! do n't say that . i -- spinelli : do n't touch me ! [ door opens ] dante : hey , what the hell 's going on out here ? derek : sam -- sam 's father 's name is julian ? you 're certain about that ? alexis : i 'm positive . derek : hmm . alexis : i was n't until , uh , my daughter suggested that i - i get hypnotized . derek : hyp -- hypnosis ? alexis : yes . [ chuckles ] i was a skeptic , but not anymore . it turns out i was an easy subject -- went out just like that , and , uh , i remember the car . i remember the song that was playing , and i remember his friend knocked on the window and called him julian . we 're taking off . you hear me , julian ? alexis : derek . you okay ? uh ... [ chuckles ] maxie : what are you doing ? no ! no . where 's my baby ? dr. chu : the sedative should take effect any moment . she needs her rest . maxie : no , i want my baby . she 's mine . and spinelli is her father . dante : we can hear yelling inside the room . what are you -- what -- the baby 's sleeping . ellie : i 'm so sorry . lulu : so what 's the problem ? what on earth are you two fighting about ? spinelli : we were fighting about the baby . michael : aj , where are you ? look , i 'm at the house . just -- just come home , please . aj : [ panting ] michael : aj , what 's going on ? where have you been ? sonny : connie ? you there ? connie . you in there ? olivia : oh , god . oh , god . what is that ? | olivia sees the puppy asking for its mommy on a poster in the hospital elevator . she short circuits the elevator when she bangs on all the buttons , causing it to stop between floors . lulu suggests that they name their daughter jacqueline . dante says that name reminds him of spinelli 's nickname , the jackal and that he does n't want to think of spinelli when he looks at his daughter . she suggests that they name their daughter georgie since maxie had been calling her that . dante recalls that lulu thought maxie was getting too attached to the baby and wonders if she foresees a problem in the future . lulu thinks maxie will be fine now that she is n't pregnant . maxie wakes up in recovery and tells her parents that her sister , georgie , told her to come back for her baby . when she asks where her baby is , they tell her that she is with her parents , dante and lulu . she says it 's her baby with spinelli . dr. chu sedates her . ellie tells spinelli that he and maxie are dante and lulu 's baby 's biological parents . she explains that maxie was never implanted with a second embryo because she was already pregnant from having sex with him on new years eve . spinelli is dumbfounded and elated , but at the same time he is furious that ellie lied to him . she says maxie begged her not to tell and she complied because she was afraid to lose him to maxie and her baby . dante and lulu go out into the hallway when they hear spinelli yelling at ellie . lulu asks what they are fighting about . spinelli says they are fighting about the baby . | <s>[INST] sonny : [ sighs ] olivia : oh , god . sonny : what ? olivia : it 's that damn puppy , again . what are you doing here , huh ? what are you doing here ? i thought you were gone . what are you doing back here again now ? sonny : what are you talking about ? what are you doing ? olivia : that 's the dog . the damn -- the wolf puppy -- the little puppy i thought maxie was gon na give birth to . dante : all right . this is getting ridiculous . what are we gon na name this little munchkin ? lulu : what about jackalyn ? dante : jackalyn . uh , i do n't know . where did you get that name from ? lulu : i do n't know . i just looked at her and the name popped in my head . i thought it was perfect . you do n't like it ? dante : it kind of reminds me of spinelli . spinelli : uh , i fail to see what dante and lulu 's daughter has to do with me . ellie : that 's just it , damian . that little girl is n't dante and lulu 's daughter . she 's yours . spinelli : i - i 'm sorry . what ? ellie : she 's ... yours . that baby is ... yours . spinelli : mine ? no , she is n't . ellie : yes , she is . that little girl in there is your daughter -- [ sniffles ] yours and maxie 's . felicia : oh , god . mac : how 's maxie ? felicia : is my daughter going to be all right ? michael : aj ? sam : [ laughs ] alexis : this is amazing . sam : i know . derek : good news , i hope . alexis : it 's -- it 's the best . the donor drive was a success . sam : we have a bone - marrow match for danny . derek : what ? you 're kidding . that 's amazing ! well , how soon can he get the transplant ? alexis : that depends on you . derek : i do n't follow . why would scheduling the surgery depend on me ? alexis : because you 're the match . derek : me ? [ laughing ] i - i 'm the match ? you -- are you serious ? sam : the lab tested all the volunteers , and you were the only one who came back as a match . derek : but i 'm not related to danny or any of you . alexis : uh , we know . sam : yeah , right . uh , but the doctors did tell us that there is a possibility that anyone could be a match , and that 's why we had everyone tested . derek : yeah , yeah , but what -- what are the odds of that ? alexis : 1 in 50,000 . that 's what the doctors told us . somehow , it 's you . connie : julian . there was a son named julian . and now he 's calling ava ? i know wt i heard , julian . sonny needs to hear it , too . aj , what are you doing here ? aj : [ slurring ] what do you think ? connie : aj , you 're drunk . aj : sure i am . you know what ? i got myself a little bit of liquid courage , and i drank it down , and it took me right here to you . connie : okay , be careful with -- aj : do n't tell me what to do ! connie : okay . aj : you know why i drank ? 'cause you , connie -- or is -- is it kate ? which -- which do you prefer ? guess it does n't really matter , 'cause the damage is the same . connie : please . you do n't want to do anything -- aj : you know , this all started with you . and this is gon na end with you . right here and right now . olivia : that means something . it -- it means something about our granddaughter that that puppy 's showing up again . sonny : what are you talking -- why are you -- a dog ? what are you talking about ? olivia : the dog in the poster ! the -- okay . it changed . sonny : it -- the poster ? olivia : yes . sonny , i - i 'm telling you . i was looking at the poster , and it was a picture of a little wolf baby dog , and it said , `` i want my mommy . `` sonny : were you having one of your visions ? olivia : i guess it must be . sonny : maybe you 're just wound up because of your granddaughter was -- olivia : no . i 'm not wound up . i 'm telling you , i looked at the poster , and i saw a little dog -- a little baby wolf dog , and it said , `` i want my mommy . `` and it 's got to mean something about our granddaughter . sonny : it means nothing . our granddaughter 's healthy right now . we saw her . it 's not a dog . olivia : okay , it 's not exactly a dog . it 's like -- it 's some little wolf puppy or something . like i said , it 's like some kind of little wild animal that i do n't know what the name of it is . sonny : a dingo like in the movies ? olivia : not a dingo . it 's something else . sonny : okay . whatever it is , olivia , it 's gone . olivia : okay , look . when i saw the dog before , it was when maxie was first pregnant with the baby , right ? and then she tripped over that dog on new year 's eve . remember that ? sonny : and you have n't seen it since ? olivia : no . and so that 's what i thought it was . i - i - i thought it was just meaning that maxie was gon na trip over the puppy . [ sighs ] so why is this little wolf dog showing up again now ? and why is it asking for its mommy ? lulu : jackalyn reminds you of spinelli ? dante : yeah , well , that was -- that was his nickname -- the jackal . that -- he had it in his logo for his p.i . firm . lulu : right , right . i do n't know . dante : no , i do . i think we pass on that name , 'cause i do n't want to think of spinelli every time i look at my daughter . spinelli : ellie , i - i realize that i 've been -- i 've been too focused on maxie -- filling in for dante at childbirth class , sitting vigil at her labor -- yes , i - i - i overstepped , and you 're right to point that out , but i 'm not delusional . i do n't -- i do n't think that adorable little child is mine . ellie : damian , please , just listen to me . i 'm not speaking metaphorically about this child being yours . i 'm talking empirically , scientifically , biologically . maxie lost dante and lulu 's baby . and the baby that she 's been carrying this entire time ... is yours . spinelli : but that 's not possible . ellie : yes , it is possible . do n't you remember what happened on new year 's eve ? damian , you had intercourse with maxie . and she conceived your baby . dr. chu : your daughter will recover . felicia : oh , thank god . mac : what happened ? we -- we were told maxie had a routine c - section , and the baby 's been in nicu for over an hour . are you saying maxie 's been in the o.r . all this time ? dr. chu : i 'm sorry that no one was able to come out here and brief you , but it was all hands on deck . your daughter hemorrhaged . we almost lost her . felicia : but she 'll be all right . you just said she 'd recover . dr. chu : oh , yeah . we were able to stabilize maxie and stop the bleeding . [ chuckling ] your daughter 's one hell of a fighter . felicia : [ voice breaking ] you said the same thing . thank god you were right . [ laughs ] kiki : michael , i was n't expecting you here . i ... michael : oh , i - i was just looking for aj uh , have you -- have you seen him , by any chance ? kiki : no . why ? did something happen ? michael : [ sighs ] well , i - i found this and this , and now he 's missing . kiki : this is such a mess ! my dad 's missing , too . connie : okay , aj [ chuckles ] you 're not thinking clearly . the alcohol 's making you do this . aj : really ? why ? 'cause i - i could n't possibly be this strong ? huh ? i could n't possibly take some action ? what did you think ? did you think i was just gon na let you ruin me ? see , everyone always thinks they can just walk all over me , you know , and just get away with it and i 'm not gon na fight back , especially you . connie : i do n't think that . aj : yeah , you do . you do , huh ? you know , what did you think -- you could print a story like that and i 'm just -- just gon na slink away like i always do , huh ? well , no more ! no more . not this time . no . this is the last time anyone messes with me . dr. chu : maxie lost a lot of blood , but she 'll be okay . felicia : when can we see her ? dr. chu : uh , they 'll be taking her down to recovery in a few minutes . you can see her there . they 've sedated her , so she 'll be groggy . mac : well , as long as she 's all right , that 's all that matters . dr. chu : what -- what maxie did for her friends -- carrying that baby for them -- was truly heroic . you have an amazing daughter . mac : thank you . dr. chu : yeah . felicia : if she 's amazing , it 's because of you . [ sniffles ] mac : you 're absolutely right . felicia : [ laughs ] mac : come on . let 's go see our girl . felicia : okay . spinelli : yes , on -- on new year 's eve , maxie and i , we -- ellie : ... were together . spinelli : but you told me yourself that she conspired with dr. westbourne -- that they implanted a second of dante and lulu 's embryos so that maxie would not have to tell them that they lost the first . ellie : i know what i told you . and that was maxie 's plan , but ... when she approached dr. westbourne , they discovered that maxie was already pregnant ... with your baby . spinelli : so no imp -- no implantation , then ? because she ... oh , my god . [ chuckles ] [ voice breaking ] that 's my daughter ? that little -- that little bundle i had in my arms was mine ? [ crying ] ellie , i - i 've -- i 've never felt anything like this . never . it 's -- ellie : it 's huge . spinelli : it 's incredible . i -- it 's -- it 's beyond the realm of comprehension . i - i do n't understand . what -- why did n't maxie tell me ? ellie : she was determined for you never to know . she did n't tell a soul . the only people who were in on the secret were herself and -- and dr. westbourne . spinelli : and , apparently , you . olivia : ... our granddaughter . sonny : stop pushing all the buttons . we 're already going down . what are you doing ? olivia : i ca n't wait , sonny ! i got to get back to that baby . [ motor whirring ] [ motor stops ] olivia : what floor are we on ? and why are n't the doors opening ? sonny : because we 're stuck . alexis : i 'm very sorry that i yelled at you the other day about you bumping the story off the front page . sam : yeah , does it seem opportunistic that i would like to apologize now that you 're , um , a match ? derek : please , i really felt terrible about having to bump the article . that 's why i came to get tested . alexis : out of guilt or because it was a gesture ? derek : gesture ? what do you mean gesture ? alexis : no , no , no . i - i 'm just trying to -- to find out if you 're actually gon na go through with this and let dr. clay take your bone marrow and give it to danny . derek : ms. david , i never would have gotten tested if i were n't willing to donate . alexis : it 's a fairly difficult surgery . derek : i 'm committed , no matter what it takes . i 'm just still amazed that i 'm a match . sam : now there 's a front - page story for you . the man who ... ran a story about the donor drive -- he has enough of the same dna to save a little boy 's life ! derek : i 'm -- okay , i 'm just , um ... happy to help . alexis : thank you , mr. wells . michael : what ? your -- your dad 's missing ? kiki : sorry , franco . it 's -- yeah , he escaped from the hospital without anyone noticing . michael : well , have you called the cops ? kiki : morgan 's at the station . i just came here to check to see if he came home . no such luck , and i just really hope he does n't hurt himself or someone else . michael : yeah . i 'm hoping the same thing about aj connie : look , aj , i 'm -- i 'm sorry . i do n't know what else to say . i regret that the story had such a negative impact on your life . aj : ne - negative impact ? connie : i swear on my life i never meant to hurt you . and i 'm gon na do whatever i can to make amends . so let 's just figure out a way to make it better . sonny : connie ? are you there ? i was -- i was on my way to see you . can you hear me ? connie : put the gun down , aj marching into my office with a gun is no way to settle this . so let 's talk it out and see what we can do . sonny : connie , can you -- look , i 'm , uh -- i 'm stuck in an elevator . connie , can you hear me ? aj : who the hell 's that ? what is that ? connie : it 's nothing . aj : who is that ? connie : it 's the metro court terrace . it happens sometimes . sonny : all right , listen . i 'm gon na get out of this elevator , and then i 'm gon na come see you . aj : [ chuckles ] oh , connie . connie , what are you gon na do now , huh ? huh ? sonny 's not gon na come rescue you this time . sonny 's not the big man with the big gun ! huh ? damian . but i - i just -- i could n't shake the feeling that something was wrong and maxie was keeping a secret . i was afraid that -- that there was something wrong with the baby . so ... i investigated . [ sighs ] and i tricked you into helping me hack into maxie 's medical records . that 's when i discovered that maxie miscarried . and i - i confronted her about it , but , of course , she denied it , so i - i threatened to go to the lab and check dante and lulu 's remaining embryos , and that 's when she confessed ... [ sighs ] that you were the father . spinelli : you told me it was dante and lulu 's baby . ellie : i lied . spinelli : why ? why would you lie to me ? lulu : we love spinelli , but we do n't want daddy thinking of him every time he looks at you . dante : no . let 's get to know this little angel a little bit better . we 'll come up with the right name . lulu : i know a name that wo n't work . georgie . maxie : mom . felicia : right here , sweetheart . we are so proud of you . mac : yeah . you came through with flying colors . maxie : wh - where 's georgie ? mac : what do you mean , honey ? maxie : i was with her . georgie was here . lulu : what are we gon na name you , little miss ? maxie wanted us to call you georgie after her sister , but we told her that she should save that name for her own little girl . still , i 'm sure that georgie sounds familiar . i know that maxie 's been calling you that for the last few weeks . dante : you were worried she was getting a little too attached to her ? lulu : i was worried about a lot of things , from the size of our apartment to what baby clothes we should buy . i was especially worried about maxie 's pregnancy heels that were only 3 inches high . this is her idea of sensible . and while i know that you are too sweet and supportive to call me out on it , we both know that i bring new meaning to the words `` control freak `` when it comes to her . dante : i think you 're just being a conscientious mother . if you felt that maxie was getting too attached to her , then that 's probably what was happening . do you think that 's gon na be a problem going forward ? felicia : sweetheart , there was a problem with the delivery . you had a c - section , and then you hemorrhaged . mac : you fought hard . you fought hard , but you came back to us . maxie : but georgie -- she -- she showed me ... mac : maxie , maxie , they gave you a lot of pain killers , okay ? you might be a little confused for a while . maxie : no , no . it 's okay . i remember . i - i came back for my baby . where is she ? where 's my baby ? olivia : something could be wrong with our grandbaby , and i ca n't warn anyone , 'cause we 're stuck in the damn elevator . sonny : olivia , can you get a signal ? i got to -- i got to call connie back . olivia : i got nothing . i got nothing , but you 're more than welcome to try . sonny : there 's got to be a help button here . olivia : i already tried that , sonny . sonny : well , they have to answer . 'cause they ca n't leave us locked in here like this . open the damn door ! olivia : okay . we 're stuck between floors , sonny . the doors are not going to open , but we 're in a hospital . okay ? so it wo n't take them very long to understand -- sonny : olivia . olivia . if they do n't open -- if they do n't open the door , i 'm gon na freak out . you know that . get me out of here ! michael : yeah , i do n't -- i do n't know if i told you this or not , but ... [ sighs ] aj 's an alcoholic . kiki : i did n't know . michael : yeah , he was pretty bad . you know , he was in and out of rehab when he was younger , and he was in some pretty bad accidents . and he 's been sober ever since he 's been back , or , well , at least i - i thought that he was . kiki : you think he 's been drinking this whole time without you knowing ? michael : i - i hope not . i just -- he has n't been acting any differently or anything like that , it 's just -- only until recently . elizabeth found him at the floating rib getting completely hammered , and -- and she tried to get him to come home . he turned on her . he got vicious , so she -- she took his keys and she , uh -- she took off . kiki : she took his keys so he 's not driving . that 's -- that 's good . that 's something . michael : yeah . the bartender said that he called for a cab , and the company records show that he was dropped off here . but when i got here , all i found was a bottle and the paper with your -- your headline in it . kiki : i was there the day of the vote . i saw how much elq meant to aj , and now he 's lost it because of me . michael : no , it 's not -- it 's not your fault , okay ? aj was outmaneuvered , that 's all . it 's just if it was any other job , any other company , aj would have been okay . it 's just that elq was like his -- his symbol . you know , his -- his chance to prove that he was just as good as the rest of the quartermaines . even though the quartermaines are n't all that great . kiki : some of them are . michael : anyway , um , the loss much have been too much for aj , and ... the safe 's pen . kiki : do you think that could have been aj ? michael : i do n't know what he -- i do n't know what he 'd want from the safe . aj : you thought you could screw me over , did n't you ? huh ? you thought wrong . connie : [ crying ] aj , please , please . you do n't want to do this , okay ? think of michael -- what it would do to him . he loves you . aj : michael loves sonny ! connie : he loves you , too . aj : no , why would he ? why would he love me , huh ? everybody 's told him from the time he was little that i was a loser and a drunk and i was n't fit to be his father . you -- you prove them all right . huh ? you destroyed everything that i built . you took away the last chance i had with my son . oh , no -- oh , oh , i 'm sorry . i mean -- i mean sonny 's son . michael corinthos iii just rolls off the tongue , does n't it ? you know , he was even named after sonny . did you know that ? considers him his father , huh ? he loves him . he 's proud of him . [ scoffs ] he thinks that sonny 's a big man . and he thinks i 'm nothing . because of you . connie : no . you are wrong about that , aj you can fix this . you can . aj : you -- you told me that i did n't have the guts to get payback . connie : what ? i never said that . aj : yeah . connie : i would never say that . i do n't feel that way . aj : no , that 's exactly what you said , and you believe it , too . otherwise , you would n't have written that article . yeah , you dared me to get payback for destroying my life . well , guess what , bitch ? it 's payback time . connie : aj , please . please do n't . michael : there 's money , some old jewelry , documents . i still do n't understand what aj would want with any of this . kiki : maybe it had to do with elq or the will or the charter . he 's probably trying to fight the takeover . michael : yeah , maybe . kiki : or if he 's that wasted , he could be thinking anything . i do n't know . michael : yeah , that 's exactly why i need to find him . he 's out there right now completely drunk thinking that he lost everything . kiki : i get that . well , i know that franco is n't wasted , but he did just have brain surgery . and he lost a daughter that he never really had . michael : yeah . anything could happen to either of them . kiki : i 'm really scared , michael . michael : yeah . me , too . sonny : olivia , i 'm starting to feel -- i 'm starting to freak out right now . olivia : okay . sonny . look at me . look at me . okay ? hey , hey , hey ! hey ! look at me . look in my eyes . sonny , it 's okay . sonny : i got to get out of here . olivia : it 's okay . you 're gon na be okay . it 's okay . just look at me . sonny : no , i do n't know . olivia : look at me . okay ? i 'm here . sonny : i 'm feeling trapped here . olivia : i understand . sonny : you know what happens . olivia : yes , i do . i understand . sonny : [ breathing rapidly ] olivia : sonny , it 's okay . just stay with me and look into my eyes and breathe . you 're gon na be okay , sonny . sonny : i know . i just got to get out of her . olivia : listen to me . listen to me ! sonny . deke is not here right now . that 's son of a bitch is dead and gone and he 's buried and you are safe . you are safe here with me . it 's just you and me here . and you know you can trust me , right ? you know that . sonny : [ sniffles ] olivia : you know that , right ? sonny : yeah . olivia : okay . so stay with me . look in my eyes . i am gon na get you through this . you can do it . okay ? okay . alexis : i am sorry . i barely know you . [ chuckles ] derek : no need to apologize . it 's always flattering to be hugged by a beautiful woman . alexis : yeah , uh , well , i 'm just really -- we 're really grateful to you . uh , not that there 's any guarantee , because we 've been warned by the doctor that , uh , even if there is a match , that danny 's going to have to go through a long process , and there are ri -- which is -- you 've just really improved the odds tremendously . sam : yeah . we -- we ca n't thank you enough . you 're giving danny a fighting chance . derek : well , i just hope that my bone marrow works . although , um , i probably should warn you , um ... your son might grow up to love fast cars and single- barrel bourbon . sam : [ chuckles ] i really do n't care what he grows up to love as long as i see him grow up . i did n't -- i did n't think this was gon na be an option until you . derek : listen , how -- how can i help this , uh , go as fast as possible ? alexis : does dr. clay even know there 's a donor ? sam : uh ... i do n't know . i do n't know . i should probably go and tell him , though . i can not wait for you to meet him , mr. wells . derek : hey , if your son 's gon na be using my bone marrow , i think it 's time you start calling me derek . sam : okay , well , thank you , derek . alexis : [ sighs ] so , uh , i get the feeling that you do n't want us to make a fuss over you . derek : [ chuckles ] well , let 's just say that you can , um , thank me by keeping this low - key . alexis : oh , yeah . yeah , of course . um , i mean , you do n't see this from my behavior , but i - i like things understated as well . derek : and i - i ca n't even imagine how hard this has been for you , though . alexis : it 's been really hard . i mean , the hardest part is -- is there 's so many ups and downs and , uh , you know , things soar and then they plummet . we actually had a donor , and , uh , it was a blood relative , and it turned out that he had cancer cells in his brain , and it , uh , made him illegible . derek : [ sighs ] well , that must have been a blow . alexis : it was a blow . uh , sam , of course , was devastated , because we had been through everyone in the family except her -- uh ... derek : except ... ? alexis : [ sighs ] except her father . spinelli : how could you not tell me that maxie was carrying my child ? ellie : damian , i wanted to so bad . but maxie begged me not to say anything . she was ashamed that she lost the first baby , and she was so afraid of disappointing dante and lulu . they were so invested in the baby . she told me they 'd be devastated , and i believed her . so i collaborated with maxie to keep it a secret . spinelli : ellie , you barely know them . and ... i 'm supposed to be the person you love . why would you not tell me that i had a child ? ! ellie : i 'm sorry ! spinelli : okay , stop apologizing and just give me -- give me a reason that i can understand . how -- how could you not tell me ? how could you deny me my own child ? how could you keep something so momentous , so life - changing from the person that you say you love ? ! ellie : [ crying ] because i was afraid of losing you . lulu : i 'm not really sure where maxie is on her attachment to our little miss , but i 'm thinking that now that she 's not carrying the baby , she 's letting go . dante : i hope so . lulu : i know maxie . she 'll be fine . maxie : where 's my little girl ? felicia : she 's with lulu and dante . and she 's absolutely perfect . mac : maxie , you did an amazing job carrying the baby for them , but right now , you 've lost a lot of blood and you 're confused . maxie : no , no . i remember . i saw her . she 's beautiful . felicia : everyone says that she 's beautiful and wonderful , and you 've been an amazing surrogate . mac : but maxie , the baby belongs to dante and lulu . maxie : no . no , she does n't . she 's mine . derek : are you telling me that , um , sam 's father refused to get tested ? alexis : no . uh , i 'm telling you that sam 's father did n't get tested because i - i do n't know who he is . derek : sam 's adopted . alexis : no . i only knew sam 's father for one night . derek : oh , gosh . i 'm -- i 'm so sorry . you -- you do n't need to give me an explanation . alexis : uh , it 's okay . um , i did n't , uh , remember much about sam 's father until danny got sick , and then i - i remembered that i met him in new hampshire . derek : new hampshire ? really ? i , uh -- [ chuckles ] i do n't know why that i thought you were from new york . alexis : no , i - i worked in new york for several years . i went to school in new hampshire -- a boarding school . derek : which , uh -- which school was that ? alexis : briarton - griggs . it 's an all - girls school . derek : oh . alexis : uh , and then i remembered something else about him . i remember his name . you know , it was n't a common name like tom or mike . it was more unique than that . derek : so , what was his name since it was n't , uh , tom or mike ? alexis : julian . michael : i miss you . [ cell phone rings ] kiki : i - i have to take this . morgan ? no . no , franco is n't here . okay , yeah . uh , i 'll be there soon . thank you . i have to go , michael . morgan 's waiting for me . michael : kiki . do you believe morgan ? kiki : i asked him , point blank , and he denied it . michael : and that 's enough for you ? kiki : i married him , michael . i made a vow to him . i have to make this work . michael : that 's exactly what morgan 's counting on . kiki : morgan 's a good husband , okay ? i was at the hospital , and he was there for me when i really needed him . morgan 's good to me . and i have to be good to him , too . sonny : yeah , thanks . olivia : you okay now ? sonny : yeah , i 'm better . uh , 'cause of you . olivia : yeah ? sonny : i 'm , uh -- olivia : do n't say it . you do n't have to say anything . i understand . connie 's in your heart . she 's your girl . that 's okay . we are ... us . you know , and we got our son and we got a beautiful granddaughter now . sonny : olivia falconeri , you 're one hell of a woman . olivia : even though i got us stuck in this dumb elevator ? [ door opens ] sonny : i 'll be damned . olivia : i told you they 'd get us out of here . sonny : [ groans ] olivia : [ sighs ] sonny : [ sighs ] olivia : you see that ? look at you . sonny : yeah ? olivia : good as new . get out of here . go find my cousin , okay ? sonny : you sure ? olivia : i 'm positive . i 'm gon na go check on our grandbaby and make sure that that dog i saw was n't trying to warn us about anything . sonny : yeah . make sure you take the stairs , 'cause that 's what i 'm gon na do . olivia : i 'm gon na risk it , okay ? i promise i 'll only press one button at a time . sonny : thank you . maxie : where is she ? felicia : sweetheart , i know how hard this has been , carrying her all these months , all the pain that you 've suffered , but that little girl is lulu and dante 's biological child . mac : they created her , and you did an incredible job . but the baby does n't belong to you . they 're her parents . maxie : no . she 's mine . and i want her . mac : okay , maxie . you need to calm down , please . maxie : n - no . i - i want my baby . felicia : i 'm calling a doctor . mac : that 's a good idea . sweetheart , please , calm down . maxie : no ! you 're not listening to me . she is mine -- my baby -- mine and spinelli 's . spinelli : you were afraid of losing me ? so you lied to me about my own child ? ! ellie : damian , you were in love with maxie for years . and when she finally decided that she loved you , too , if you had n't been with me , you 'd have gone back to her . i mean , you slept with her when you thought that i broke up with you . spinelli : i thought you forgave me . ellie : i did forgive you . but i did n't forget . and then i told you that i did n't want children , and we argued bitterly . so when maxie revealed that you were the father of her child , i could n't help but wonder how long it would take before you left me for her and -- and for your child . spinelli : [ sniffles ] that 's why you told me you 'd reconsider having a family . ellie : [ crying ] spinelli : you told me you were willing to have a baby because you loved me . but that was n't it at all , was it ? it was because of your guilt . because you were allowing dante and lulu to take my child and raise it as their own . ellie : damian , i wanted to tell you . spinelli : but you did n't , did you ? ! lulu : i do n't think i 've ever been happier . dante : me neither . spinelli : [ muffled ] oh , my god , ellie ! how could you do this to me ? ! god , i do n't -- i feel like i do n't even know you at all ! ellie : no ! do n't say that . i -- spinelli : do n't touch me ! [ door opens ] dante : hey , what the hell 's going on out here ? derek : sam -- sam 's father 's name is julian ? you 're certain about that ? alexis : i 'm positive . derek : hmm . alexis : i was n't until , uh , my daughter suggested that i - i get hypnotized . derek : hyp -- hypnosis ? alexis : yes . [ chuckles ] i was a skeptic , but not anymore . it turns out i was an easy subject -- went out just like that , and , uh , i remember the car . i remember the song that was playing , and i remember his friend knocked on the window and called him julian . we 're taking off . you hear me , julian ? alexis : derek . you okay ? uh ... [ chuckles ] maxie : what are you doing ? no ! no . where 's my baby ? dr. chu : the sedative should take effect any moment . she needs her rest . maxie : no , i want my baby . she 's mine . and spinelli is her father . dante : we can hear yelling inside the room . what are you -- what -- the baby 's sleeping . ellie : i 'm so sorry . lulu : so what 's the problem ? what on earth are you two fighting about ? spinelli : we were fighting about the baby . michael : aj , where are you ? look , i 'm at the house . just -- just come home , please . aj : [ panting ] michael : aj , what 's going on ? where have you been ? sonny : connie ? you there ? connie . you in there ? olivia : oh , god . oh , god . what is that ?Summarize.[/INST]olivia sees the puppy asking for its mommy on a poster in the hospital elevator . she short circuits the elevator when she bangs on all the buttons , causing it to stop between floors . lulu suggests that they name their daughter jacqueline . dante says that name reminds him of spinelli 's nickname , the jackal and that he does n't want to think of spinelli when he looks at his daughter . she suggests that they name their daughter georgie since maxie had been calling her that . dante recalls that lulu thought maxie was getting too attached to the baby and wonders if she foresees a problem in the future . lulu thinks maxie will be fine now that she is n't pregnant . maxie wakes up in recovery and tells her parents that her sister , georgie , told her to come back for her baby . when she asks where her baby is , they tell her that she is with her parents , dante and lulu . she says it 's her baby with spinelli . dr. chu sedates her . ellie tells spinelli that he and maxie are dante and lulu 's baby 's biological parents . she explains that maxie was never implanted with a second embryo because she was already pregnant from having sex with him on new years eve . spinelli is dumbfounded and elated , but at the same time he is furious that ellie lied to him . she says maxie begged her not to tell and she complied because she was afraid to lose him to maxie and her baby . dante and lulu go out into the hallway when they hear spinelli yelling at ellie . lulu asks what they are fighting about . spinelli says they are fighting about the baby .</s> | 11,351 |

[ parker remembering ] i know how dangerous it is . that 's why i -- yes , sir . anyway , i was calling to see if faith was okay . no , they won't . bye . j.j. : do you want to go play soccer outside ?

jack : yeah . i need to let you know that i spoke to the director of that camp . carly : the camp for troubled kids ? jack : the one the therapist suggested . yeah , she really thinks that parker can get what he needs to turn his life around , so i -- i reserved him a spot . carly : no . jack , i already told you , i 'm not gon na let you send him away . jack : actually , carly , you do n't get a vote . carly : like hell i don't . i talked to a lawyer , jack , and he says i can fight you on this . jack : yeah , i talked to an attorney , too . according to him , you do n't have a leg to stand on . captioning sponsored by procter & gamble productions , inc . and cbs small , small is tremendous jade : you ca n't stand the idea of gwen and will finding out what a little con artist you are . cleo : you know what ?

yeah , somehow , i figured you would n't want to do that . jade : i ca n't believe i did n't see this before . cleo : see what ? jade : how totally phony your little wide - eyed , innocent girl routine is . you 're no little hick . you 're a sneak . cleo : and you need to make sure that you heard me . stay away . alison : are you just gon na stand there and not say anything ?

i get myself out of one messed - up situation just to jump right into another . dusty : there 's no situation . it wo n't happen again . right ? alison : definitely not . dusty : so there 's nothing to talk about . i 'm gon na make that call . alison : i 'm gon na go shower . faith : i should have told parker that i believed him . lily : if jack did n't believe him , there must have been a reason . you got hurt because parker was careless . faith : even if he did leave the gun out , it 's not like he was hoping i would trip over it . lily : no , but he did n't realize something bad could happen , and that 's the point . faith : but it was my fault . lily : what ? faith : well , i was n't even supposed to be at the farm . i would n't even be there if my feelings were n't hurt earlier . lily : who hurt your feelings , parker ? faith : not on purpose . i kind of hoped for something that turned out not to be true . lily : i 'm not following you . you know you can tell me anything , do n't you ? faith : okay . i kind of liked parker . lily : in a boyfriend / girlfriend kind of way , right ? faith : yeah . but i was kind of hoping that he would like me , too , but i was wrong . lily : why ? why -- how do you know that ? faith : well , he told me that he did n't need a girlfriend or even want one . and that would n't have been so bad if -- lily : if what ? faith : if he had n't left me to go hang out with morgan . lily : aw . i 'm sorry , honey . faith : that 's okay . morgan 's really more his type than i am anyway . lily : what type is that ? faith : thin . parker : see ? j.j. : what is this ? parker : it 's proof that jack 's trying to get rid of me . it 's the application for that juvie - hall camp . look , he 's filled out everything , and especially this part -- `` behavior issues . `` all he has left to do is pack me up and ship me off . j.j. : dad would n't do that . parker : it 's done , j.j . i mean , at least it 's gon na be good for you . j.j. : what do you mean ? parker : you know how you 've been saying that you wish i 'd just disappear ? it 's your wish come true . j.j. : parker , it 's -- [ phone rings ] hello ? oh . uh , hey , morgan . uh , parker , he is n't here right now . so i guess that means you 're gon na have to call him back later . sorry . bye . carly : how could any decent lawyer talk you into thinking i have no rights ? i gave birth to that child . jack : see , you keep throwing the biological thing in my face , and i 've got to do something to protect my own parental rights . carly : well , i think you 've gone too far with parker . and if that 's the only weapon i 've got , then that 's what i 'm going to use . jack : see , that 's the thing , carly . you keep talking about weapons when we should be finding solutions . you know and i know that i 've been just as muca parent to that boy as you have . i 'm only trying to help him . carly : by shipping him off to some camp for bad kids . jack : you do n't think this is killing me ? i love that boy . but he needs help , more that you and i can give him . he 's just not hurting himself anymore . he 's hurting other people now . carly : he did not intend for faith to be hurt . besides , he said that he did not leave that gun out . jack : even if i believe that , it 's not just about the gun , okay ? what about the running away , the constant fighting with parker , the failing grades ? carly , this has been going on a long time . and i 've set limits for him . i 've bargained with him . i 've held him when he 's let me . and nothing -- nothing has gotten his behavior under control . carly : well , maybe you 're just not giving him enough time to turn things around . jack : well , there was a -- there was a time there when i thought he was turning things around . carly : and then i came back , right ? jack : i 'm not gon na sugarcoat things for you , carly . ever since you came back , parker 's attitude went from bad to worse . faith could 've been seriously hurt . next time , we might not get so lucky . carly : well , i do n't think the answer is some dumping ground for delinquents . jack : carly , i 'm not sending him to prison . it 's a summer camp . i 've checked it out thoroughly . he 'll be outside getting a lot of fresh air and exercise and time to reflect on what he 's done . carly : did n't you initially tell me that you were just threatening parker for effect ? jack : that was before , yes . carly : so if faith had n't gotten hurt , then you would n't be doing this ? jack : then i would n't be so adamant about it . but i 'm not gon na start arguing and covering the same old ground again and again with you . i 'm calling the director and telling him that his application is on the way . carly : wait . jack , if you 're sending him away because of what happened to faith , what if parker had nothing to do with it ? i 'm a busy working mom , emily : so anyway , alison 's been living at home with me and mom and working here at al 's , off and on . aaron : just my luck . i manage to show up on her day . emily : oh , well no . actually she 's out of town visiting some friends for a while . but she 'll be back . how long are you going to be in oakdale ? maybe she 'll be back before you have to go . aaron : my plans are up in the air , right now . emily : good . that 's good . then there 's time . aaron : yeah , yeah . emily , can i ask you a question ? emily : sure . aaron : how was alison when she got back here ? emily : she was okay . why ? aaron : i 'm just surprised she came back at all . i mean , she always swore to me she 'd never set foot in this town again . emily : well , you know how it goes . people say things . and then they start missing their family and their friends and -- you know , they remember how good the fries are at al 's . you know what , why do n't i um -- why do n't i let ali fill you in when you see her ? she 's going to be surprised that you 're actually looking for her , i think . aaron : yeah . i hope it 's a good surprise . emily : she told me about the breakup . she said it was kind of rough . aaron : yeah , well -- i mean , we headed out west to take care of my mom . and then she got better , and then we had nothing to do but focus on -- you know , us . i do n't want to get into too many details , but you know , we made a lot of mistakes . a lot of mistakes . a lot of things we regret . i 'm not going to lie , there was a lot of yelling . emily : i 'm sure it 's water under the bridge for ali . aaron : i hope so . but listen , i told my dad i 'd call him when i got back into town , so i 'm going to go ahead and do that . emily : okay , okay . you go ahead . aaron : good to see you . emily : you , too aaron . damnit , dusty , will you call me back . alison : i know , do n't say it . i 've taken like a hundred showers in the last 24 hours . this was the last one , i swear , until tomorrow . dusty : you okay now ?

will : or what about at old town ? i saw you two talking and it did n't look like you were strangers . do you want to fill me in ? lily : honey . parker is very young . faith : if you 're going to tell us that we 're too young , please don't . lily : absolutely not . your feelings are valid no matter how old you are and i think grown - ups forget that sometimes . all i 'm saying is parker 's having a lot of trouble at home right now . i think a girlfriend is the last thing he 's thinking about . faith : unless she looks like morgan . lily : i do n't want you comparing yourself to anybody else . because you are beautiful . faith : i do n't feel beautiful . and when i look at morgan -- i have to tell you something . lily : what ? what is it ? faith : after i saw them leave together , i ate all the snacks that i 'd bought for the movies . lily : because you wanted to make yourself feel better ? faith : and i did , at first . but then i felt really , really bad . lily : so what did you do after you ate ? faith : i did n't throw up , if that 's what you 're thinking . lily : good . good for you . faith : not really . because then i did something even more pathetic . lily : what did you do ? faith : i followed parker to the farm . i wanted to spy on them . and that 's when i fell and tripped over the gun . got hurt . lily : oh , honey . i 'm sorry . faith : so do you finally get why we ca n't really blame parker ? 'cause it was all my own fault . jack : do n't do this , carly . carly : do what , jack ? believe in my son ? jack : well , i 'd love to believe him . do i think he meant to do something so reckless ? absolutely not . do i think he meant for faith to get hurt ? no . he was shooting that gun off the other day because he was mad at the world . he was angry . he 's not denying that . carly : i do n't think that he would have made things worse by lying about it . if he left the gun out , he would have said so . jack : taking up for him when he 's wrong is not going to make him less mad at you . carly : that is unfair . jack : no , what 's unfair is you thinking that this is easy for me . do you think that i want to see parker go away ? carly : you know , jack , it sure seems like it . jack : no , you 're wrong . it tears my heart out that he believes that i 'm so fed up with him that i ca n't deal with him anymore . but i 've got to think of the big picture here . his future well being and his happiness means a hell of a lot more to me than what he thinks about me right now . carly : well i do n't think that a bunch of social workers disguised as camp counselors can make my child happier than i can make my child . jack : carly , they 're professionals ! okay ? they can get him to deal with his feelings without you coddling him or me yelling at him . i wish to hell there was another way , carly . i just do n't see any other option right now . j.j. : no , dad , you 're wrong ! you ca n't send parker away because of the gun ! it is n't right ! jack : j.j. , how 'd you get here ? j.j. : i rode my bike . carly : all the way from the farm ? j.j. : i had to . look . jack : okay , where 'd you get this ? j.j. : parker found it and he showed it to me . look , you ca n't send him to this place . it is n't right ! jack : what 's not right about it ? carly : yeah j.j. , what 's not right about it ? you can tell us . j.j. : well , remember when you told me to muck out the stables and i passed it off for two whole days ? jack : yeah . j.j. : well , you 're not mad at me . jack : okay , j.j. that was a mistake . it was one mistake . you have n't been acting out the way parker has . j.j. : but still . jack : no , this camp -- it 's a pretty great place . he 's going to get to go canoeing and fishing and play basketball . j.j. : but he can do that all at home . jack : yeah , there 's other stuff there , too though , buddy . there 's therapy sessions and workshops where he and other kids can talk about how to deal with their feelings better . okay . that 's got to be a major relief to you , right ? i mean , are n't you tired of him picking on you all the time > j.j. : yeah , i hate it when he picks on me , but -- jack : all right , all right . great . so maybe when he gets back , every time i turn my back , he wo n't start something with you . [ phone rings ] snyder . yeah , transfer it to my desk . thanks . i 've got to take this . carly : will you be long ? jack : no . you can wait for me , and we can go over and talk to parker together if you want . carly : well , you are a very loyal brother , j.j . j.j. : no , i 'm not . carly : sure you are . you rode your bike all the way here to -- to fight for parker , right ? how many brothers would do that ? j.j. : well , it just is n't fair . carly : i know you do n't think it 's fair . but i do n't want you taking on parker 's mistake . you are not responsible for what happened to faith . he is . is something bothering you ? you can talk to me , j.j. you can tell me . j.j. : well , it 's just -- i have to go to baseball practice . carly : would you like a ride ? j.j. : no , that 's okay . i 've got my bike . carly : be careful . cleo : i do n't know what you 're talking about . will : i did n't get to hear anything . but i saw you two talking and it seemed like you were n't exchanging recipes . cleo : look , i understand that our conversation probably looked really intense . but honestly , i do n't know jade . she saw gwen and i hanging out and i guess , you know , she figured out that we were friends and -- she did n't like that , so she threatened me . will : she threatened you ? how ? cleo : she told me to stay away from gwen or else . will : cleo , that does n't make any sense . why would she care whether or not you were friends with gwen ? cleo : i do n't know . but i got the feeling that she does n't really want gwen to have any friends . i do n't really want to say what else she said . will : well , come on , cleo . you 've gone this far . cleo : she said that you and gwen were backstabbers . that you were mean people . that you used them and then you threw them away . but do n't worry , i stood up for you guys . i told her how kind both you and gwen have been to me . will : jade 's actually caused a lot of problems for us in the past . i 'm sorry you had to deal with her on your own . cleo : it 's okay . i understand . if she 's as mean as you say , i can see why you would n't want to get involved . will : and i 'm sorry i seemed so suspicious when you came in . cleo : oh , it 's totally my fault . i should have told you right away . i was just really shaken up and i did n't want to upset you or anything . will : next time , why do n't you just be honest right from the start ? okay ? cleo : will ? jade -- jade would never do anything to hurt gwen , would she ? i mean , she seems , she seems really mean . will : no . she 's not going to hurt gwen . and i 'm not going to let her hurt you , either . cleo : where are you going ? will : i think jade needs a talking - to , do n't you ? cleo : but she 's going to say that i was lying , of course . will : yeah well , jade 's the one who lies . but i know not to believe a word she says . i 'm going to go deal with her . alison : there . all better . the secret is ice cold water . dusty : you sure you 're okay ? alison : yeah , i 'm sure . i 'm going to go get dressed . [ cell phone ringing ] dusty : hello ? emily : finally ! where have you been ? dusty : right here . emily : why have n't you returned any of my calls ? dusty : i 've been tied up . emily : with what ? i got your message about alison . you had to know i 'd be on pins and needles waiting to hear from you . dusty : yeah , i 'm sorry about that . she 's fine . emily : that 's it ? she 's fine ? dusty , what 's going on that you could n't pick up your phone ? dusty : we were waiting for clearance -- from the cops . and they just found lance , so now we 're free to leave . emily : the police ? what the hell happened ? dusty : i 'll explain it all to you later . emily : are you sure alison 's all right ? you 're not just saying this to keep me quiet ? dusty : she 's fine . i promise . i 'm going to fill you in when we get home . emily : i hope that means you 're on the next plane back . dusty : we 're going to try . emily : dusty , i ca n't thank you enough . for taking care of my little sister . you really came through for me , and i -- i just ca n't thank you enough . can i talk to ali ? dusty : you want to talk to ali ? emily : yeah . i want to tell her i love her . dusty : she 's in the shower right now . emily : okay . all right , just um -- pass along the message to her , please . and i ca n't wait to see her . hurry home , okay ? dusty : will do . she says she loves you , misses you , ca n't wait to see you . so , we should probably hit the road . are you coming or what ? alison : i ca n't go , dusty . i ca n't go back with you . dusty : what 's going on ? you told me you were okay . alison : i said i was okay with everything that happened with lance . i did n't say i was ready to go back to oakdale . dusty : why not ? alison : i was really angry at emily , dusty . i said things i never should 've said to her . dusty : so what ? you 're sisters . you fight , you make up . everything 's okay . alison : you were n't there . when she told me that she had lied to me about being a hooker , i called her a hypocrite . and now , i 'm supposed to go back and lie to her face about what you and i did ? i ca n't do that to my sister . i know how much she cares about you . she 'd be so hurt . dusty : she does n't have to know . alison : please . what secret do you know that does n't come out sooner or later ? and what will we do if she found out ? dusty : there 's nothing to find out . what happened was between you and me . it 's nobody 's business . alison : i guess . dusty : let 's pretend it never happened . deal ? i 'm going to go downstairs and get a cab . get the rest of your stuff together , okay ? aaron : hey , emily . i just wanted to tell you it was really , really good to see you . emily : aaron , i 'm sorry . i 'm glad you came back . i just uh -- i just heard from alison and she 's on her way back into town . so she should be home soon . aaron : did you tell her i was asking about her ? emily : no . no , i figured i 'd just wait until she came back . aaron : maybe you should n't say anything at all . emily : why ? aaron : i do n't know . you made it sound like ever since she 's been back , she 's got her life on track and i -- i do n't want to derail her . emily : derail her ? i think it 's a little late for you to be worried about that . jade : do you want something ? will : do you ? jade : no . not especially . and i 'm sure you can tell by the way that i 've been avoiding you and your friends . will : well what were you doing with cleo earlier ? jade : are you stalking me ? will : just answer the question , jade . cleo said that you told her that if she did n't stop hanging out with gwen , then she 'd be sorry . jade : oh , um -- well , i do n't know what cleo told you , but i did n't come after her . she came after me . lily : why do n't we make a deal ? faith : what kind of deal ? lily : the next time you 're upset about parker and morgan -- instead of going for all those candy bars , you come and talk to me . and we 'll work it out . okay ? faith : okay . lily : i love you so much . faith : i love you , too , mom . i think i better get to class . lily : and i 'm going to go look at that office space that carly was talking about . you have a great class , and i 'll see you later . okay ? bye . faith : bye . oh , hi j.j. are n't you supposed to be at baseball practice ? j.j. : yeah , but i just wanted to see if you 're okay . your dad told me you were here . faith : i 'm fine . i guess parker 's in a lot of trouble , huh ? j.j. : you wo n't even believe , faith . they 're going to send him away . it 's all my fault . jack : you remember the time we did the zip cord on our trip out west ? you loved it , remember ? this rope course sounds incredible . plus they 've got leadership games , and all the sports you like . parker : great . jack : parker , it 's a chance to get a fresh start on your life . so , do we have an agreement ? 'cause they wo n't accept you unless you agree . parker : whatever . jack : i 'll take that as a yes . i 'm going to call the camp director and let him know we 're a go . carly : so -- i 'm sorry this feels like a punishment to you . parker : what happened to all your talk about being on my side ? carly : oh , i am on your side . parker : you know what , forget it . carly : no , parker , do n't go ! look -- if you say you did n't leave the gun out , then i believe you . parker : so how come you 're quiet while jack tells me how great it 's going to be on exile island ? carly : what can i do to help you when you wo n't help me ? you 've got to give me something ! parker : like what ? carly : something to help prove to jack that you did n't do it . parker : what 's the point ? no one would believe me anyway . carly : well you ca n't just throw your hands up thinking that everyone 's against you , so there 's no point in standing up for yourself . parker : but there is no point ! not when everybody already thinks i 'm a liar . carly : i don't . if you let me , i will help you . parker : and who 's going to believe you ? because everyone already thinks you 're a big liar . and now they 'll figure , like mother like son . i was pretty nervous , apprehensive . i have copd with chronic bronchitis which makes will : you expect me to believe that cleo actually came after you ? jade : yeah , i do expect you to believe that . she 's trying to keep me away from you and gwen , which is ridiculous because i do n't want to be around either one of you . just proves she 's a head case . will : cleo 's harmless . jade : really ? you 're actually trying to convince me that the girl 's not completely weird ? will : yeah , so she has her personality issues . fine . jade : uh - huh . personality issues ? the girl is a nut job . if you and gwen were smart , you would cut her loose . will : if i had been smart , i never would have made friends with you , jade . jade : oh , thanks a lot , will . that 's really nice . will : if you and i have our problems , it 's only because you brought them on yourself . all right ? all the stuff you pulled . jade : i get it . i 'm a terrible person . will : listen to me . cleo 's a nice person and i 'm not going to let you hurt her . so , you need to back off . cleo : i always dreamed will would come to my rescue like he 's doing today ! he 's out right now looking for jade to defend my honor . although , i have to admit , i wish he were n't talking to her . she 's a real b ! and knows way too much . on the other hand , she ca n't afford to say anything about how she knows me because she 'd just be ratting herself out . so maybe it 's okay . actually , when i think about it , it 's more than okay , it 's kind of perfect . but just in case , i got myself a little insurance . i think i have a way to stop jade -- for good . emily : i guess what i 'm saying is that alison has been through some -- experiences that have changed her , that 's all . aaron : what kind of experiences ? emily : you know what . why do n't i just let ali decide what she wants you to know when she gets back , okay ? aaron : fair enough . but is she all right ? emily : she will be . i know it . but i 'm going to be honest with you , the break- up was rough on here . i think she 's a little fragile right now . aaron : so maybe i was right and she 's not going to want to see me . emily : no . no , aaron , i think you are exactly what my sister needs right now . dusty : car 's downstairs . you ready ? alison : yup . faith : i do n't understand . how could any of this be your fault ? parker 's the one who left the gun out . j.j. : but he did n't leave it out . i saw him put it away . faith : okay . then how could it have gotten back outside ? j.j. : because i put it there ! after parker locked it away , i went in , i took it back outside . i 'm the reason you got shot ! jack : i talked to mr . jenkins from the camp . he 's going to fax a list of everything parker 's going to need , plus a bus schedule . carly : please , jack . jack : carly , i 'm not going to argue with you anymore about this . it 's done . besides , i thought when we agreed to come here together it was going to be because you were going to support me on this . carly : i just want you to think it through . just a little more . and i know how tough it is to trust my judgment -- jack : then do n't ask me to . carly : i have to . because he 's our son . he 's the same kid who did n't give up on you when your car went over that bridge and everyone , including me , thought you were dead . when everyone told him that he was believing the impossible , he did n't give up on you . and now i 'm asking you , jack -- please do n't give up on him . please believe him . jack : i 'm not giving up on him . but what i believe , carly , is that he needs serious help . that 's what i believe . carly : if he needs help then we 'll give him help right here . just forget about the lawyers , and the shrinks and the intervention squad . we can do this for parker . just the two of us . like we used to . you and me together . announcer : next week on `` as the world turns . `` jack : we 've got to face the truth . katie : i 'm sorry . emily : what happened in vegas ?

faith : well , i was n't even supposed to be at the farm . i would n't even be there if my feelings were n't hurt earlier . lily : who hurt your feelings , parker ? faith : not on purpose . i kind of hoped for something that turned out not to be true . lily : i 'm not following you . you know you can tell me anything , do n't you ? faith : okay . i kind of liked parker . lily : in a boyfriend / girlfriend kind of way , right ? faith : yeah . but i was kind of hoping that he would like me , too , but i was wrong . lily : why ? why -- how do you know that ? faith : well , he told me that he did n't need a girlfriend or even want one . and that would n't have been so bad if -- lily : if what ? faith : if he had n't left me to go hang out with morgan . lily : aw . i 'm sorry , honey . faith : that 's okay . morgan 's really more his type than i am anyway . lily : what type is that ? faith : thin . parker : see ? j.j. : what is this ? parker : it 's proof that jack 's trying to get rid of me . it 's the application for that juvie - hall camp . look , he 's filled out everything , and especially this part -- `` behavior issues . `` all he has left to do is pack me up and ship me off . j.j. : dad would n't do that . parker : it 's done , j.j . i mean , at least it 's gon na be good for you . j.j. : what do you mean ? parker : you know how you 've been saying that you wish i 'd just disappear ? it 's your wish come true . j.j. : parker , it 's -- [ phone rings ] hello ? oh . uh , hey , morgan . uh , parker , he is n't here right now . so i guess that means you 're gon na have to call him back later . sorry . bye . carly : how could any decent lawyer talk you into thinking i have no rights ? i gave birth to that child . jack : see , you keep throwing the biological thing in my face , and i 've got to do something to protect my own parental rights . carly : well , i think you 've gone too far with parker . and if that 's the only weapon i 've got , then that 's what i 'm going to use . jack : see , that 's the thing , carly . you keep talking about weapons when we should be finding solutions . you know and i know that i 've been just as muca parent to that boy as you have . i 'm only trying to help him . carly : by shipping him off to some camp for bad kids . jack : you do n't think this is killing me ? i love that boy . but he needs help , more that you and i can give him . he 's just not hurting himself anymore . he 's hurting other people now . carly : he did not intend for faith to be hurt . besides , he said that he did not leave that gun out . jack : even if i believe that , it 's not just about the gun , okay ? what about the running away , the constant fighting with parker , the failing grades ? carly , this has been going on a long time . and i 've set limits for him . i 've bargained with him . i 've held him when he 's let me . and nothing -- nothing has gotten his behavior under control . carly : well , maybe you 're just not giving him enough time to turn things around . jack : well , there was a -- there was a time there when i thought he was turning things around . carly : and then i came back , right ? jack : i 'm not gon na sugarcoat things for you , carly . ever since you came back , parker 's attitude went from bad to worse . faith could 've been seriously hurt . next time , we might not get so lucky . carly : well , i do n't think the answer is some dumping ground for delinquents . jack : carly , i 'm not sending him to prison . it 's a summer camp . i 've checked it out thoroughly . he 'll be outside getting a lot of fresh air and exercise and time to reflect on what he 's done . carly : did n't you initially tell me that you were just threatening parker for effect ? jack : that was before , yes . carly : so if faith had n't gotten hurt , then you would n't be doing this ? jack : then i would n't be so adamant about it . but i 'm not gon na start arguing and covering the same old ground again and again with you . i 'm calling the director and telling him that his application is on the way . carly : wait . jack , if you 're sending him away because of what happened to faith , what if parker had nothing to do with it ? i 'm a busy working mom , emily : so anyway , alison 's been living at home with me and mom and working here at al 's , off and on . aaron : just my luck . i manage to show up on her day . emily : oh , well no . actually she 's out of town visiting some friends for a while . but she 'll be back . how long are you going to be in oakdale ? maybe she 'll be back before you have to go . aaron : my plans are up in the air , right now . emily : good . that 's good . then there 's time . aaron : yeah , yeah . emily , can i ask you a question ? emily : sure . aaron : how was alison when she got back here ? emily : she was okay . why ? aaron : i 'm just surprised she came back at all . i mean , she always swore to me she 'd never set foot in this town again . emily : well , you know how it goes . people say things . and then they start missing their family and their friends and -- you know , they remember how good the fries are at al 's . you know what , why do n't i um -- why do n't i let ali fill you in when you see her ? she 's going to be surprised that you 're actually looking for her , i think . aaron : yeah . i hope it 's a good surprise . emily : she told me about the breakup . she said it was kind of rough . aaron : yeah , well -- i mean , we headed out west to take care of my mom . and then she got better , and then we had nothing to do but focus on -- you know , us . i do n't want to get into too many details , but you know , we made a lot of mistakes . a lot of mistakes . a lot of things we regret . i 'm not going to lie , there was a lot of yelling . emily : i 'm sure it 's water under the bridge for ali . aaron : i hope so . but listen , i told my dad i 'd call him when i got back into town , so i 'm going to go ahead and do that . emily : okay , okay . you go ahead . aaron : good to see you . emily : you , too aaron . damnit , dusty , will you call me back . alison : i know , do n't say it . i 've taken like a hundred showers in the last 24 hours . this was the last one , i swear , until tomorrow . dusty : you okay now ? alison : yeah . no nightmares . no blood . just a regular old shower . dusty : good . so , i spoke to the cops . they found lance , along with some other interesting things . alison : like what ? dusty : a car full of kiddie porn and all kinds of drugs . but you probably already knew about that . alison : i knew about the drugs , dusty , but i swear to god , i never knew he was involved in anything that sick . dusty : he 's going to go away for a long time . he 's not going to bother you anymore . alison : i owe you so much , dusty . i mean , if you had n't come in when you did -- dusty : well , the ali - cat did n't do so back herself . alison : yeah , i freaked like a baby . dusty : that 's okay . it 's not often you have to fight off a loser pimp . alison : i keep seeing him coming at me . dusty : try to let it go . alison : i do n't know if i can . dusty : do n't worry about that . it 'll come off . alison : here , let me help . dusty : it 's okay . well , if you insist . cleo : oh , you 're here . cool . how 'd gwen 's meeting go with the new producer about the demo ? will : i actually do n't know . you 're going to have to wait . she 's not back yet . cleo : oh . it 's just the two of us then , huh ? i work the late shift tonight at work . are you hungry ? i could make you something to eat . i could make you some of those cookies that you like so much . will : thanks , cleo , but i think i 'm going to pass . cleo : come on , will , you 've been so nice to me , letting me stay here and everything , you 've got to let me do something for you . will : you want to do something for me ? there is something you can do . cleo : anything . will : tell me why you lied to me . cleo : what are you talking about ? will : you told me you did n't know who jade taylor was . cleo : uh , i don't . i do n't know who she is . um , is she somebody i could have met at the lakeview ? will : or what about at old town ? i saw you two talking and it did n't look like you were strangers . do you want to fill me in ? lily : honey . parker is very young . faith : if you 're going to tell us that we 're too young , please don't . lily : absolutely not . your feelings are valid no matter how old you are and i think grown - ups forget that sometimes . all i 'm saying is parker 's having a lot of trouble at home right now . i think a girlfriend is the last thing he 's thinking about . faith : unless she looks like morgan . lily : i do n't want you comparing yourself to anybody else . because you are beautiful . faith : i do n't feel beautiful . and when i look at morgan -- i have to tell you something . lily : what ? what is it ? faith : after i saw them leave together , i ate all the snacks that i 'd bought for the movies . lily : because you wanted to make yourself feel better ? faith : and i did , at first . but then i felt really , really bad . lily : so what did you do after you ate ? faith : i did n't throw up , if that 's what you 're thinking . lily : good . good for you . faith : not really . because then i did something even more pathetic . lily : what did you do ? faith : i followed parker to the farm . i wanted to spy on them . and that 's when i fell and tripped over the gun . got hurt . lily : oh , honey . i 'm sorry . faith : so do you finally get why we ca n't really blame parker ? 'cause it was all my own fault . jack : do n't do this , carly . carly : do what , jack ? believe in my son ? jack : well , i 'd love to believe him . do i think he meant to do something so reckless ? absolutely not . do i think he meant for faith to get hurt ? no . he was shooting that gun off the other day because he was mad at the world . he was angry . he 's not denying that . carly : i do n't think that he would have made things worse by lying about it . if he left the gun out , he would have said so . jack : taking up for him when he 's wrong is not going to make him less mad at you . carly : that is unfair . jack : no , what 's unfair is you thinking that this is easy for me . do you think that i want to see parker go away ? carly : you know , jack , it sure seems like it . jack : no , you 're wrong . it tears my heart out that he believes that i 'm so fed up with him that i ca n't deal with him anymore . but i 've got to think of the big picture here . his future well being and his happiness means a hell of a lot more to me than what he thinks about me right now . carly : well i do n't think that a bunch of social workers disguised as camp counselors can make my child happier than i can make my child . jack : carly , they 're professionals ! okay ? they can get him to deal with his feelings without you coddling him or me yelling at him . i wish to hell there was another way , carly . i just do n't see any other option right now . j.j. : no , dad , you 're wrong ! you ca n't send parker away because of the gun ! it is n't right ! jack : j.j. , how 'd you get here ? j.j. : i rode my bike . carly : all the way from the farm ? j.j. : i had to . look . jack : okay , where 'd you get this ? j.j. : parker found it and he showed it to me . look , you ca n't send him to this place . it is n't right ! jack : what 's not right about it ? carly : yeah j.j. , what 's not right about it ? you can tell us . j.j. : well , remember when you told me to muck out the stables and i passed it off for two whole days ? jack : yeah . j.j. : well , you 're not mad at me . jack : okay , j.j. that was a mistake . it was one mistake . you have n't been acting out the way parker has . j.j. : but still . jack : no , this camp -- it 's a pretty great place . he 's going to get to go canoeing and fishing and play basketball . j.j. : but he can do that all at home . jack : yeah , there 's other stuff there , too though , buddy . there 's therapy sessions and workshops where he and other kids can talk about how to deal with their feelings better . okay . that 's got to be a major relief to you , right ? i mean , are n't you tired of him picking on you all the time > j.j. : yeah , i hate it when he picks on me , but -- jack : all right , all right . great . so maybe when he gets back , every time i turn my back , he wo n't start something with you . [ phone rings ] snyder . yeah , transfer it to my desk . thanks . i 've got to take this . carly : will you be long ? jack : no . you can wait for me , and we can go over and talk to parker together if you want . carly : well , you are a very loyal brother , j.j . j.j. : no , i 'm not . carly : sure you are . you rode your bike all the way here to -- to fight for parker , right ? how many brothers would do that ? j.j. : well , it just is n't fair . carly : i know you do n't think it 's fair . but i do n't want you taking on parker 's mistake . you are not responsible for what happened to faith . he is . is something bothering you ? you can talk to me , j.j. you can tell me . j.j. : well , it 's just -- i have to go to baseball practice . carly : would you like a ride ? j.j. : no , that 's okay . i 've got my bike . carly : be careful . cleo : i do n't know what you 're talking about . will : i did n't get to hear anything . but i saw you two talking and it seemed like you were n't exchanging recipes . cleo : look , i understand that our conversation probably looked really intense . but honestly , i do n't know jade . she saw gwen and i hanging out and i guess , you know , she figured out that we were friends and -- she did n't like that , so she threatened me . will : she threatened you ? how ? cleo : she told me to stay away from gwen or else . will : cleo , that does n't make any sense . why would she care whether or not you were friends with gwen ? cleo : i do n't know . but i got the feeling that she does n't really want gwen to have any friends . i do n't really want to say what else she said . will : well , come on , cleo . you 've gone this far . cleo : she said that you and gwen were backstabbers . that you were mean people . that you used them and then you threw them away . but do n't worry , i stood up for you guys . i told her how kind both you and gwen have been to me . will : jade 's actually caused a lot of problems for us in the past . i 'm sorry you had to deal with her on your own . cleo : it 's okay . i understand . if she 's as mean as you say , i can see why you would n't want to get involved . will : and i 'm sorry i seemed so suspicious when you came in . cleo : oh , it 's totally my fault . i should have told you right away . i was just really shaken up and i did n't want to upset you or anything . will : next time , why do n't you just be honest right from the start ? okay ? cleo : will ? jade -- jade would never do anything to hurt gwen , would she ? i mean , she seems , she seems really mean . will : no . she 's not going to hurt gwen . and i 'm not going to let her hurt you , either . cleo : where are you going ? will : i think jade needs a talking - to , do n't you ? cleo : but she 's going to say that i was lying , of course . will : yeah well , jade 's the one who lies . but i know not to believe a word she says . i 'm going to go deal with her . alison : there . all better . the secret is ice cold water . dusty : you sure you 're okay ? alison : yeah , i 'm sure . i 'm going to go get dressed . [ cell phone ringing ] dusty : hello ? emily : finally ! where have you been ? dusty : right here . emily : why have n't you returned any of my calls ? dusty : i 've been tied up . emily : with what ? i got your message about alison . you had to know i 'd be on pins and needles waiting to hear from you . dusty : yeah , i 'm sorry about that . she 's fine . emily : that 's it ? she 's fine ? dusty , what 's going on that you could n't pick up your phone ? dusty : we were waiting for clearance -- from the cops . and they just found lance , so now we 're free to leave . emily : the police ? what the hell happened ? dusty : i 'll explain it all to you later . emily : are you sure alison 's all right ? you 're not just saying this to keep me quiet ? dusty : she 's fine . i promise . i 'm going to fill you in when we get home . emily : i hope that means you 're on the next plane back . dusty : we 're going to try . emily : dusty , i ca n't thank you enough . for taking care of my little sister . you really came through for me , and i -- i just ca n't thank you enough . can i talk to ali ? dusty : you want to talk to ali ? emily : yeah . i want to tell her i love her . dusty : she 's in the shower right now . emily : okay . all right , just um -- pass along the message to her , please . and i ca n't wait to see her . hurry home , okay ? dusty : will do . she says she loves you , misses you , ca n't wait to see you . so , we should probably hit the road . are you coming or what ? alison : i ca n't go , dusty . i ca n't go back with you . dusty : what 's going on ? you told me you were okay . alison : i said i was okay with everything that happened with lance . i did n't say i was ready to go back to oakdale . dusty : why not ? alison : i was really angry at emily , dusty . i said things i never should 've said to her . dusty : so what ? you 're sisters . you fight , you make up . everything 's okay . alison : you were n't there . when she told me that she had lied to me about being a hooker , i called her a hypocrite . and now , i 'm supposed to go back and lie to her face about what you and i did ? i ca n't do that to my sister . i know how much she cares about you . she 'd be so hurt . dusty : she does n't have to know . alison : please . what secret do you know that does n't come out sooner or later ? and what will we do if she found out ? dusty : there 's nothing to find out . what happened was between you and me . it 's nobody 's business . alison : i guess . dusty : let 's pretend it never happened . deal ? i 'm going to go downstairs and get a cab . get the rest of your stuff together , okay ? aaron : hey , emily . i just wanted to tell you it was really , really good to see you . emily : aaron , i 'm sorry . i 'm glad you came back . i just uh -- i just heard from alison and she 's on her way back into town . so she should be home soon . aaron : did you tell her i was asking about her ? emily : no . no , i figured i 'd just wait until she came back . aaron : maybe you should n't say anything at all . emily : why ? aaron : i do n't know . you made it sound like ever since she 's been back , she 's got her life on track and i -- i do n't want to derail her . emily : derail her ? i think it 's a little late for you to be worried about that . jade : do you want something ? will : do you ? jade : no . not especially . and i 'm sure you can tell by the way that i 've been avoiding you and your friends . will : well what were you doing with cleo earlier ? jade : are you stalking me ? will : just answer the question , jade . cleo said that you told her that if she did n't stop hanging out with gwen , then she 'd be sorry . jade : oh , um -- well , i do n't know what cleo told you , but i did n't come after her . she came after me . lily : why do n't we make a deal ? faith : what kind of deal ? lily : the next time you 're upset about parker and morgan -- instead of going for all those candy bars , you come and talk to me . and we 'll work it out . okay ? faith : okay . lily : i love you so much . faith : i love you , too , mom . i think i better get to class . lily : and i 'm going to go look at that office space that carly was talking about . you have a great class , and i 'll see you later . okay ? bye . faith : bye . oh , hi j.j. are n't you supposed to be at baseball practice ? j.j. : yeah , but i just wanted to see if you 're okay . your dad told me you were here . faith : i 'm fine . i guess parker 's in a lot of trouble , huh ? j.j. : you wo n't even believe , faith . they 're going to send him away . it 's all my fault . jack : you remember the time we did the zip cord on our trip out west ? you loved it , remember ? this rope course sounds incredible . plus they 've got leadership games , and all the sports you like . parker : great . jack : parker , it 's a chance to get a fresh start on your life . so , do we have an agreement ? 'cause they wo n't accept you unless you agree . parker : whatever . jack : i 'll take that as a yes . i 'm going to call the camp director and let him know we 're a go . carly : so -- i 'm sorry this feels like a punishment to you . parker : what happened to all your talk about being on my side ? carly : oh , i am on your side . parker : you know what , forget it . carly : no , parker , do n't go ! look -- if you say you did n't leave the gun out , then i believe you . parker : so how come you 're quiet while jack tells me how great it 's going to be on exile island ? carly : what can i do to help you when you wo n't help me ? you 've got to give me something ! parker : like what ? carly : something to help prove to jack that you did n't do it . parker : what 's the point ? no one would believe me anyway . carly : well you ca n't just throw your hands up thinking that everyone 's against you , so there 's no point in standing up for yourself . parker : but there is no point ! not when everybody already thinks i 'm a liar . carly : i don't . if you let me , i will help you . parker : and who 's going to believe you ? because everyone already thinks you 're a big liar . and now they 'll figure , like mother like son . i was pretty nervous , apprehensive . i have copd with chronic bronchitis which makes will : you expect me to believe that cleo actually came after you ? jade : yeah , i do expect you to believe that . she 's trying to keep me away from you and gwen , which is ridiculous because i do n't want to be around either one of you . just proves she 's a head case . will : cleo 's harmless . jade : really ? you 're actually trying to convince me that the girl 's not completely weird ? will : yeah , so she has her personality issues . fine . jade : uh - huh . personality issues ? the girl is a nut job . if you and gwen were smart , you would cut her loose . will : if i had been smart , i never would have made friends with you , jade . jade : oh , thanks a lot , will . that 's really nice . will : if you and i have our problems , it 's only because you brought them on yourself . all right ? all the stuff you pulled . jade : i get it . i 'm a terrible person . will : listen to me . cleo 's a nice person and i 'm not going to let you hurt her . so , you need to back off . cleo : i always dreamed will would come to my rescue like he 's doing today ! he 's out right now looking for jade to defend my honor . although , i have to admit , i wish he were n't talking to her . she 's a real b ! and knows way too much . on the other hand , she ca n't afford to say anything about how she knows me because she 'd just be ratting herself out . so maybe it 's okay . actually , when i think about it , it 's more than okay , it 's kind of perfect . but just in case , i got myself a little insurance . i think i have a way to stop jade -- for good . emily : i guess what i 'm saying is that alison has been through some -- experiences that have changed her , that 's all . aaron : what kind of experiences ? emily : you know what . why do n't i just let ali decide what she wants you to know when she gets back , okay ? aaron : fair enough . but is she all right ? emily : she will be . i know it . but i 'm going to be honest with you , the break- up was rough on here . i think she 's a little fragile right now . aaron : so maybe i was right and she 's not going to want to see me . emily : no . no , aaron , i think you are exactly what my sister needs right now . dusty : car 's downstairs . you ready ? alison : yup . faith : i do n't understand . how could any of this be your fault ? parker 's the one who left the gun out . j.j. : but he did n't leave it out . i saw him put it away . faith : okay . then how could it have gotten back outside ? j.j. : because i put it there ! after parker locked it away , i went in , i took it back outside . i 'm the reason you got shot ! jack : i talked to mr . jenkins from the camp . he 's going to fax a list of everything parker 's going to need , plus a bus schedule . carly : please , jack . jack : carly , i 'm not going to argue with you anymore about this . it 's done . besides , i thought when we agreed to come here together it was going to be because you were going to support me on this . carly : i just want you to think it through . just a little more . and i know how tough it is to trust my judgment -- jack : then do n't ask me to . carly : i have to . because he 's our son . he 's the same kid who did n't give up on you when your car went over that bridge and everyone , including me , thought you were dead . when everyone told him that he was believing the impossible , he did n't give up on you . and now i 'm asking you , jack -- please do n't give up on him . please believe him . jack : i 'm not giving up on him . but what i believe , carly , is that he needs serious help . that 's what i believe . carly : if he needs help then we 'll give him help right here . just forget about the lawyers , and the shrinks and the intervention squad . we can do this for parker . just the two of us . like we used to . you and me together . announcer : next week on `` as the world turns . `` jack : we 've got to face the truth . katie : i 'm sorry . emily : what happened in vegas ?

[ scene_break ] damian : i 've done some research , and i found a neurologist who can help paul . a specialist in post - traumatic stress and memory loss . lily : since when are you concerned about helping paul ryan ? he tried to ruin you . damian : and dusty as well . but then dusty tried to retaliate and i did n't stop him in time , so i have to make up for that . lily : by finding paul a doctor ? damian : the problem is , the guy is based in new york . and he 'll need to get special permission to be able to work at memorial . lily : yeah , well there 's a procedure to get visiting privileges . damian : i 'm aware of that , but it could take far too long . paul needs to be evaluated right now . and if there is a treatment , it must begin as soon as possible . perhaps you can help . lily : what would you want me to do ? damian : is n't lucinda on the hospital board ? lily : yes . and i 'm sure she could expedite this . but let me ask you something first . are you sure you 're going to all this trouble just to help paul ? damian : lily , i already explained to you , i have an obligation to make up -- lily : you 're a liar . damian : i am not lying to you , lily . lily : then you 're lying to yourself . paul ryan went out of his way to make you liable for millions of dollars . you 're not the kind of person to just forgive and forget something like that . damian : i 'm trying to show i 've changed . lily : you 're trying to show meg you 've changed . damian : look , meg is suffering right now . the father of her child does n't recognize anyone in his family , including his own daughter . lily : so you think if you help paul you can get closer to meg . damian : i 'm just trying to show meg that i 'm able to do the right thing . although i was n't able to stop dusty from trying to hurt paul . lily : so you 're sticking to your story that he 's the only one responsible for this ? damian : i did not want to be involved , lily . but i could n't talk him out of planting that bomb . lily : i still ca n't believe he went that far in trying to frame paul . damian : and then paul saved our lives . so i owe him for that , as well . lily : you have a very interesting take on this . dusty has a much different version , to say the least . damian : he 's jealous . meg rejected him and then turned to me as a friend . so lily , listen -- i am doing a favor for your sister - in - law . tell me -- are you willing to help me , or not ? [ scene_break ] holden : this crusade to find a miracle cure for paul , does n't that sound just a little bit fishy , meg ? meg : well , if it helps paul , then it will help eliza . and if eliza is happy , then it helps me . holden : damian 's just trying to change people 's minds about him . he started with luke and lily , and now he 's trying to get to you . meg : if damian is genuinely trying to be a better person , what 's the problem ? holden : you just need to know how he operates . you need to keep your eyes open . meg : i am . look , paul has done a lot of bad things . and so has dusty . and damian has made mistakes . and as far as i can see , there 's enough blame to go around . holden : that 's why you need to stay away from all three of them . meg : look -- right now , i am just trying to get whatever help i can get . and i am grateful to damian for what he 's doing . holden : all right . i understand what you 're feeling . but what if the three of them go at again , and you 're smack in the middle ? meg : okay , look -- i know you 're trying to protect me . but i promise you , if i run into any kind of problem , the first thing i 'm going to do is run straight to my big brother . [ scene_break ] mason : you know , when the time comes , you should consider going on the festival circuit . if you win a couple of awards , it 'll really help you get some financing for your next project . noah : okay . wait , i 've got to write a decent screenplay first . and then i 'm just concerned about graduating . the film festivals , they , um , they might have to wait . mason : do n't knock it so fast . that 's how i got my start . a few years ago , my documentary , screened at cannes , florence , lisbon . it 's great , it 's how i met my other half . noah : that sounds awesome . mason : yeah , it was . the same thing could happen to you two . let me tell you , walking the red carpet together -- romantic . luke : sounds like a blast . hey , maybe i can help you write your acceptance speech . you know , it ca n't all be about professor jarvis . there has to be a nice , long section about your incredibly supportive boyfriend . mason : just so you know , it 's not professor jarvis . it 's mason , please . luke : okay . thanks . mason : sure . luke : i think i 'm , uh , embarrassing noah with all this award talk . mason : he should be lucky to have someone who believes in him so much . noah : i -- i am . i am lucky , i know it . mason : you guys make a great couple . which reminds me , i have someone waiting for me for dinner . i should get going . luke , it was nice to meet you . luke : yes , you as well . mason : yeah . noah , keep up the good work . noah : oh , thanks again . mason : i 'll see you soon . luke : you sounded kind of intimidated by him earlier . but he 's a nice guy . noah : yeah , he 's okay . luke : so , uh , are we going to hit up any of those red carpets anytime soon ? noah : do n't hold your breath . [ scene_break ] bonnie : dusty , you would be a total fool to plead guilty . dusty : i 've made up my mind . bonnie : oh , why ? why ? i mean , the jury -- there 's a really great chance that the jury is going to be on our side . look , you were deliberately provoked and you responded . you never intended to cause harm to paul . i mean , if we play our cards right , dusty , there 's a good chance we might even get a dismissal . dusty : that 's not going to happen . bonnie : why are you so hell - bent on doing hard time in jail ? you 're just crazy ! dusty : maybe . bonnie : okay . okay . what if you -- what if you do 10 to 15 for attempted murder ? by the time you get out , johnny 's going to be all grown up . is that what you want , dusty ? dusty : i do n't see him that much , anyway . craig 's in charge of his life . that 's not going to change . bonnie : okay , look -- i know you feel like hell right now . but i am too good of a lawyer to stand by and watch you ruin your life , dusty . i am not letting you plead guilty . there 's -- dusty : then you 're fired . have a great life . [ scene_break ] paul : well , look who it is . meg : yeah , i hope i 'm not interrupting . barbara : no , no . not at all . i did n't even realize that you know that paul was out of the hospital . meg : how are you doing ? how 's the progress with your memory ? paul : um , great . i do n't remember anything . barbara : you know , we were just sitting and looking at some family pictures , and nothing was sparking . so , i think he needs one - on - one contact with people who were important to him , okay ? see if you can get something going . i 'm going to leave you two alone . meg : um , you know , i know you 're still recovering . maybe you should be resting . paul : i 'd rather stay here and look at you . feels pretty good to do that . paul : i do n't understand . meg : what ? paul : how i could forget someone so beautiful . you 're memorable . we have a kid together , huh ? meg : yeah . paul : how old ? meg : seven months . paul : and already , she does n't live here ? meg : no . paul : she used to ? meg : yeah . paul : did you and i live here together before the baby was born ? meg : for a while . paul : and how was that ? meg : well , that 's a hard question . paul : you do n't want to tell me ? meg : it was wonderful for a while , in the beginning . we were very much in love . but it was n't easy . and we tried really hard , but things always went wrong . paul : i 'm sorry . i 'm not sure exactly what i 'm sorry for , but i 'm sorry . meg : i guess you and i were n't meant to be . paul : that 's too bad . so , why exactly did we break up ? meg : do you really want to know ? paul : sure . meg : i could n't trust you , paul . you were a compulsive liar . you were jealous . you had these terrible mood swings , and when you did n't get your way , you were violent . paul : did i hurt you ? meg : no , you did n't hurt me physically . but you were out of control in other ways . you were so desperate , you kidnapped our daughter . paul : i did that to you ? i did that to that little , innocent girl ? i did that ? meg : you did a lot of things i did n't understand . paul : i 'm a terrible person . why are you here ? meg , why do you want to have anything to do with me ? [ scene_break ] noah : i 've got so much work to do for this script . i 'm never going to be ready . luke : do n't worry . you 'll finish it . noah : how ? luke : i 'll help you . noah : mason said i 've got to write this on my own . luke : okay , well maybe if you bounce some ideas off of me or something . noah : thanks . but i 'm just so distracted . i keep getting ahead of myself , like i 'm worried about a shooting schedule when i do n't even know what it is i 'm going to be shooting ! luke : noah , noah , do n't worry . it 'll be fine . noah : i hope so , because mason may seem like a nice guy , but he will flunk me , if i 'm not done on time . and then i will not graduate . luke : well , i thought you said that mason was supportive . noah : he is . he likes my ideas . but now i 've got to produce . luke : noah , you are going to be great . noah : well , i 'm glad -- i 'm glad you think so . i wish i was as confident in me as you were . luke : well , you know , i think i have an idea to get your confidence up . noah : what ? luke : you 've got to stop . just stop what you 're doing . you 're stressing yourself out . you ca n't work like this . noah : okay , what am i supposed to do ? luke : take the night off . noah : luke , i 've got a deadline ! luke : it 's one night , noah . and then you can start back up tomorrow refreshed . and you will hit it out of the park . noah : i do n't know , it sounds great , but -- luke : noah , i am taking you out tonight . we 're going to go to metro . we 're going kick back , get some sushi , dance a little bit . trust me , you 'll get twice as much done tomorrow , if you just relax tonight . noah : all right , i 'm convinced . luke : you are ? how 'd i do that ? noah : sorry . i do n't have time to answer stupid questions . my boyfriend is taking me out on the town . [ scene_break ] damian : any luck ? lily : yes . she does n't think it 'll be a problem . damian : well , the problem may be getting dr. frankel to come to memorial . his office is telling me he 's not taking new patients . lily : oh , that 's too bad . so , are we back to the drawing board ? damian : not necessarily . i mean , i 'm sure if we went to new york , and made a personal plea to the doctor himself , we may be able convince him . can we take lucinda 's jet ? that way , you 'll be home in time for dinner . lily : you want us to just drop everything and run off to new york . damian : it 's for a very good cause . i mean , i could go by myself , but i 'm sure the good doctor will be unable to say no to you . and think of how relieved meg will be if paul recovers and eliza gets her father back . lily : all right , let 's go . [ scene_break ] dusty : i fired you . ca n't you take a hint ? bonnie : i 'm not letting you fire me . dusty : well , you 're not getting paid . so do n't bother yourself . bonnie : look , this is not about the money dusty , and you know it . dusty : then what 's it about ? bonnie : okay , i know you do n't like the way meg has been treating you . she has hung you out to dry and she has sided with damian . and you 're just angry about that . dusty : meg can do whatever she wants . i do n't care . bonnie : no , that 's what you say , dusty . but you think she picked the wrong side , and she should 've chosen better . dusty : i 've given up on meg . bonnie : no . no , you want to fight back . dusty : nope , i 'm tired of fighting . bonnie : what , do you want to ruin your life ? dusty : it 's my life . you do n't have a say . bonnie : what the hell is wrong with you ? dusty : i do n't give a damn anymore ! bonnie : well , i do ! dusty : why ? bonnie : i do n't know why i do , but i do . do you have a problem with that ? [ scene_break ] meg : i 'm not sure why i 'm here . i guess i somehow feel responsible . paul : for what ? meg : if i had recognized this problem , and i got you the right help instead of turning against you , maybe things would n't have gotten this far . paul : i do n't understand . meg : the change , it was so extreme . i should have sensed that there was something causing it . paul : i had a microchip in my brain , right ? how could you know something like that ? meg : because the doctors gave me the usual explanations , and i just accepted them . i should have tried harder to get to the bottom of it . i should have looked for the right treatment for you . and maybe then , you would n't have done the terrible things that you did . paul : like kidnap your daughter . meg : our daughter . paul : right . so , you 're only here because you feel somehow responsible for what happened to me ? meg : sort of . paul : oh , well then okay , no -- no problem . i 'm fine , i 'm okay . you can go . meg : what do you mean ? paul : well , thank you for your concern . but whatever happened , i do n't remember . and whatever 's going to happen , well it ca n't have any connection to something that i do n't even remember . so , thank you for checking up on me , but i 'm be okay . you should go . and you do n't ever need to feel like you have to come back . meg : it sounds like you 're giving me the brush - off . paul : no , no , no . it 's not that . it 's just -- it 's -- look , if i 'm as bad as you just described , really what you should do is walk out that door and never come back . meg : you do n't really want me to leave . paul : well , you 're very attractive . but there 's no reason for you to be here . meg : there 's a very good reason . i want to help you . paul : i do n't remember you . i do n't . i do n't think i 'm ever going to remember you . meg : well , you have to try . paul : why ? more to the point , why do you want me to go back to being who i was ? meg : because i think it 'll be different this time . you 'll react to things differently , not the way you used to . paul : you wanted a divorce , right ? and you wanted me out of your life . meg : yes . paul : well , now that can happen . meg : no , i 'm not going to give up on you . what about our daughter ? do n't you want to get to know her ? do n't you want to be in her life while she 's growing up ? paul : not really . i mean , she 's very beautiful . but i ca n't make myself feel things that i do n't naturally feel . meg : you do n't mean that . paul : i do . i do . i feel no connection to her . and you can wait around , you know , if you 'd like , for something like that to happen , but i do n't think it 's going to happen . and if i am as bad as everybody says i am , are n't the two of you better off without me ? meg : eliza needs her father . paul : i do n't remember her , and at this age , she 's never going to remember me . now you can go be with somebody who will be better for her . meg : how can you give up ? i 'm not giving up . i want our daughter to have her father in her life . so if you just give this some time -- paul : time wo n't turn me into who you want me to be . look , if you need money , i can pay you child support . my mommy said that i 've got tons of money and i 'm willing to share -- meg : it 's not about the money . it 's about a little girl who needs the one man in her life who will always love her , no matter what . paul : but that 's not me . and it never will be . [ scene_break ] dusty : what was that for ? bonnie : it was supposed to be a wake - up call . to snap you out of your pathetic , self - pitying funk . dusty : so , it was a mercy kiss ? bonnie : i mean , i could 've hit you upside the head , but i thought you 'd enjoy kissing me more . dusty : you 're wasting your time . bonnie : who says ? dusty : i do . i 'm a mess . you deserve better . bonnie : who says -- who says you always have to come and save the day ? you know , why ca n't the damsel , you know , save the white knight ? dusty : because it does n't work . bonnie : it works for me . come on , i 'm all about equal rights . pretty strong . i can just pull you up on my horse , and we could gallop off into the sunset , no problem . dusty : tempting offer . bonnie : why do n't you give in to temptation , dusty ? i can handle it . dusty : i 'm not sure i can . bonnie : just do n't underestimate yourself , okay ?

[ scene_break ] dusty : i know you 're angry at me for what could have happened to your sister , and i do n't blame you . holden : luckily , she was n't hurt . dusty : she came too close . so if you want to take a swing at me , go ahead . holden : seems like you 're beating yourself up enough . i just want to know the real story . dusty : damian and i devised a plan to put paul in prison . i planted a bomb at the warehouse . damian was to show up with the cops in time to turn the bomb off . holden : only it did n't go down that way . dusty : not only did damian back out of the plan , he decided to tell meg everything . meg shows up at the warehouse to stop it . you know the rest . holden : so , damian was in on the whole thing ? dusty : until the last minute when he decided to bail . this guy hooks me up with this demolition expert who sells me , for a lot of money , a faulty timer on the bomb . he probably did it on purpose . this guy -- holden : only he denies all that . dusty : yep . what do you think ? holden : i think that damian is trying to get on meg 's good side . dusty : me too .

[ scene_break ] barbara : so how was your visit with meg ? paul : great . i told her to leave and never come back . barbara : you what ? paul : well , i do n't remember her or her daughter . and after the things that i did to her , i do n't know why she even wants me around . barbara : no , no , she knows that you 're not responsible for those things ! she 's willing to give you another shot . paul : i do n't want another shot . barbara : why are you trying to alienate her ? paul : i do n't even know her . look , i know you want her to mean something to me , but she does n't . barbara : give it some time . meg and eliza are your family . and if you could just trust that -- paul : she 's better off without me and so are you . [ scene_break ] mason : thank you guys for the company . sorry about how the evening got started . george was in , uh , one of his moods . luke : how long have you guys been together ? mason : feels like forever . we met at cannes when my documentary was screening there . noah : oh , is george a filmmaker , too ? mason : no , no . george is n't , uh , visual . luke : what does he do ? mason : nothing . nothing . george comes from a very wealthy family . so , he does n't really need to work . he 's got it pretty easy . at first it was amazing . we first met in europe -- traveling around , following my film at festivals . but then i landed this teaching gig , and we settled down in oakdale . well , my george does n't have anything to do during the day . so when i get home , he can be a little bit needy . it can be very intense being the center of someone 's life , when that person does n't really have a life of his own .

chyka : nothing that i recall . marlena : all right . what happened then ? chyka : dr. jonas was able to get the gun away from the man who came to my rescue . then they figured out the man had an accomplice who was tracking him , so dr. jonas put the man back in his car and left with him . marlena : leaving you alone with nicole . i 'd like to know everything that happened from that point forward . chyka : i 'd like to help you , but the truth is , i ca n't . hope : i know he feels horrible about this . ciara : if he feels so bad , why does n't he just come home ?

'cause i have n't seen you without her since you guys started , um , since , uh ... you started seeing her . eric : yeah , well , the fact of the matter is , i think maybe she 's next door . quinn : maybe we should go over this again , the reasons why i 'm uncomfortable with you moving in here . katie : no , no , no . i heard you twice the first time . eric and i are friends . we 've known each other for a very long time . i mean , seriously , how do you think he would react if i told him that i was n't buying this place because you 're insecure and you do n't trust him or your marriage ? brooke : so , i take it things did n't go so well ? i was hoping that you two could spend some time together and maybe find some common ground . r.j. : it was n't awful . brooke : well , that 's encouraging . r.j. : i had a talk with liam . he gave me a different perspective on spencer . and he did n't try to bully me or work me into liking him . he was just kind of his weird self . brooke : you 'll get used to bill 's quirks if you just give him a chance . r.j. : listen , bottom line -- i just want you to be happy . and i understand that you 're torn between spencer and dad . ridge : that went pretty well . what do you think , mom ? [ twigs snap ] ridge : what the hell are you doing here ? bill : i have brooke 's phone on my gps . ridge : that 's creepy . bill : says the man who lures his ex - wife to his mother 's grave site to court her ? brooke : so what are you saying , honey ? are you okay with me marrying bill ? r.j. : i did n't say that , all right ? i - i thought today was gon na be a drag . but he 's better than i thought . and he expressed his feelings for you , and ... i think i believed him . brooke : bill does love me very much . r.j. : but i only have one family , and so does will . should n't we have a chance to have our parents together ? i mean , if you need a deciding factor between spencer and dad , why not us ? you 're a great mother , so do what 's right in your heart and do what 's right for all of us . bill : you know , i have to give you a lot of credit . i do . i mean , that 's a -- that 's a hell of a move , bringing brooke to stephanie 's grave site ? i mean , that 's at once cheesy and slick . you tap into her grief , brooke 's constant desire to please your mother . ridge : do n't you have a business to run ? bill : can you just accept a compliment ? can you just be gracious ? it 's not like i throw them around . so what 'd you do ? you pushing that nostalgia button pretty hard , laying it on thick with all that `` ancient history destiny `` garbage ? ridge : it 's amazing to me . it 's like you were standing right there . bill : well , you know , it 's a freakish gift that i have . it 's not gon na work . no matter how many tricks you pull out of your little bag . ridge : no tricks . just told her my intentions . bill : but she 's not here anymore , is she ? all right , look , you -- you just got to stop with all these desperate stunts . you need to knock it off . 'cause if you do n't ... well , you might want to make sure there 's an opening for you at the family plot . ridge : okay , so if you 're gon na kill me , how you gon na know if she would choose you or choose me ? bill : i already know she 's gon na choose me . you 're just delaying it a bit . you better savor the moment . because when it 's all said and done , brooke is going to be married to me . eric : it was perfectly innocent , katie being over here , but quinn got perturbed and , uh ... at any rate , it turns out that katie might be moving in next door . steffy : really ? eric : rick told her about the listing , so she went over to look and she asked me to weigh in . i encouraged her to make an offer . and as it turns out , today i - i got a text saying that that 's exactly what happened . i think quinn saw the text . anyway , the point is , i think she 's , uh , probably not too happy about it , and i think maybe she 's next door right now . steffy : is quinn jealous of katie ? quinn : i 'm not insecure . i trust eric . i trust our marriage . it 's you i do n't trust . katie : you know , he 's put a lot on the line for you . you realize that . quinn : yeah , i 'm very lucky . katie : yes , you are . you 're lucky to have a man like eric . has he ever given you any reason to doubt him ? quinn : of course not . but you 're the one who keeps coming over when you know i 'm not going to be home and trying to move in next door ! katie : okay , let 's just look at the reality of the situation , shall we ? you say that you 're secure in your marriage , but that 's not how you 're acting . i mean , you 're over here , you 're lashing out at me , you 're making these veiled threats . that sounds like the old quinn . i thought you did n't want to be that person anymore . quinn : i do n't . katie : well , then let 's just rein it in , shall we ? that 's just a little advice . you know , you can take it or leave it , but do n't self - sabotage . quinn : you 're right . you 're right . about everything you said . i mean , i - i ... i 'm in all - out protective mode . it 's -- it 's -- i mean , it 's how i 'm wired . just seeing threats everywhere . everybody 's trying to take something from me . i ... when i was young , i had to scramble a lot . i did n't have any help raising wyatt . it was just ... we had this `` us against them `` mentality , and -- and it 's the same thing that eric and i have been going through with his family , a family that you are really close with . so you have to understand when you come over unannounced , wearing red lipstick , i think you 're making a play for my husband ! i think you 're -- you 're conspiring with the rest of the family to take him away from me ! katie : quinn , i 'm not doing anything ! quinn : i understand that . you say that , but think about it . rick has been the one who 's been helping you get this place . is that a coincidence ? i do n't know . how am i supposed to know that you 're not working with ridge and the rest of the family ? katie : because the only male i answer to is this tall and he 's going to lose his mind when he sees that pool out back . quinn : [ sighs ] you and eric are just friends . katie : yes . quinn : and you love this house , no ulterior motives ? katie : no . i love this house . quinn : then i 'm sorry . i was out of line , and , um ... i hope you get this house . i really do . katie : thank you . that 's -- that 's good to hear . quinn : thank you for this talk . you really , really talked me down from a place that was so bad that i never wanted to go to again , 'cause i 'm mrs. eric forrester . that 's the woman i want to be . r.j. : do you count on bill the same way you count on dad , the same way dad counts on you ? you and dad still love each other , but you 're gon na marry spencer anyway , the last person dad would ever want you to marry . so do what 's right in your heart and do what 's right for all of us . brooke : [ sighs ] ridge : dollar bill spencer , always so confident , even when he should n't be . bill : [ chuckles ] see , i - i understand that at the moment brooke has a certain weakness when it comes to you because r.j. 's home and you 're using that . but i know where things stand with us . i know what brooke and i have . ridge : and you do n't think even for a second that you are just a tiny , little bump on her journey back to me ? bill : you have got to stop dreaming , my man . you 're living in the past . you 've got to join the rest of us in the new millennium . ridge : logan and i always find our way back to each other . you know that . bill : well , there 's only one problem . she 's not your logan anymore . she 's my brooke .

jason : yeah . i just -- you know , i wish there were something i could do for her , but seeing me just makes everything worse . elizabeth : sometimes there is no way to comfort . jason : sam blames me for what happened . because of what i did to john mcbain . mcbain : sam . hey . sam : hey . mcbain : they released you from the hospital already ?

johnny : well , yeah . co - owner . his daughter , lulu spencer , she 's my partner . starr : is n't this all a little sudden ? johnny : yeah . i thought i could use a fresh start . figured you could definitely use the same . starr : i might be ready for it , now that i know who really caused the deaths of cole and hope . michael : i get it now . sonny : what 's that ? michael : why you made that deal with todd manning . he knew that kate shot out anthony 's tires , that she 's the one who killed star 's family . sonny : okay , the woman who did those things was not kate . and kate needs me now more than ever . kate : these past few weeks , i 've barely had time to think . the thought never even crossed my mind . oh , my god . oh , god , what if i 'm pregnant ? ewen : if you are , we can deal with it . okay , there 's no sense in panicking . kate : i do n't even know who the father is -- johnny or sonny . and who 's the mother -- connie or me ? if i 'm pregnant , then who knows when the baby was conceived ?

it 's over for you ? starr : well , i think it would be different if i thought that they died because of some mobster 's vendetta . johnny : different how ? starr : i could never be in the same room as that person and not want them to suffer . carly : you helped deliver téa 's baby in the middle of a rainstorm . you got her and her kid to the hospital . that baby would have died without you . i mean , you have no idea what kind of loss that is . todd : and you do ?

elizabeth : like you 'd expect . she 's not in the right frame of mind to hear anyone defend you . she even told me that ... jason : what ? what did she tell you ? elizabeth : later . i 'll tell you later . jason : no , i 'd like know . what did she say ? elizabeth : she told me that the two of you were over ... and that now you 're all mine . mcbain : there 's no way he could have known what was gon na happen . sam : you are not defending him right now . mcbain : no . no , but , you know ... i have this way of provoking people , you know , and the way he reacted was ... not a total surprise . i mean , the timing caught me off guard . sam : oh , yeah . me too . i mean , if jason were really willing to support me , to open his heart to me and my child , he would -- he would have been there , and i would have been at home when i went into labor . but when he finally decided it was okay , that he could raise franco 's baby , it was too late . i mean , for all of us , especially my baby . carly : why 'd you come back to port charles ? todd : i would think that you would want to encourage a repeat customer . carly : you came here to help star , and now she 's out of jail and all the charges have been dropped , so why are you here ? todd : there 's a grand total of one person that can stand me in llanview . he 's this big . and he thinks i 'm spider - man . my own sister , viki , she ca n't stand me right now . she might come around . but ... and blair -- she would forgive everything that i 've ever done if i were the last man on earth , but right now she is punishing me by saying she 's in love with my ex - wife 's brother , who has a funny name . carly : oh , so there 's no chance that she could actually really like this guy . todd : oh , no way . but for the moment , blair 's like everybody else in llanview and hates me . carly : well , i can see why you need a change of scenery . todd : and starr . after everything she 's lost , i feel like i want to be close . carly : what does starr think about that ? you know , what does she think about her daddy looking over her shoulder ? todd : oh , she 's probably gon na tell me to get lost and go on and on about how she has to make it on her own . carly : you 're not gon na respect her wishes at all , huh ? todd : she 's a chick . she may say she 's tough , but deep down , she 's -- she 's vulnerable . starr : okay , this place is n't so bad . johnny : see ? you 're starting to see the possibilities . starr : anything to get started on my album . i need something new to focus on , other than thinking about a way to earn rent . johnny : wait . i thought you were an heiress or something . starr : i do n't want to live off a trust fund . i want to pay my own way . johnny : hey , i respect that . you know , for a while , i refused to take anything from my family , too , but eventually i caved . but , hey , if you think you can go it alone , good on you . starr : ask me that when i find an actual paying job . johnny : i 'll tell you what . why do n't you record here by day and work here at night ? starr : oh , i do n't think i 'm ready for that . but if you 're looking for a waitress ... johnny : okay . why do n't we wait until the renovation is finished , then we can find a job that properly suits your skill set . starr : how did i get so lucky ? ever since i 've come to port charles , you 've been the answer to all of my problems . johnny : [ chuckles ] why do n't we , uh , test out the acoustics , huh ? starr : right now ? johnny : yeah . consider it an audition . sonny : how 'd you know i was protecting kate ? michael : starr told me . sonny : [ chuckles ] that son of a bitch manning . i mean , the deal was that his daughter would go free if he kept his mouth shut about kate . michael : as far as i know , starr 's dad only told her . sonny : well , he was n't supposed to tell anybody . michael : yeah , he just wanted her to know the truth about how her boyfriend and little girl died , you know . you know , maybe finally it 'll bring her some peace . sonny : you want that for her ? michael : yeah . yeah , she 's been hurt enough . sonny : well , you were pretty angry when you saw her pointing a gun at me . you said you wanted her to pay for everything that she did and -- michael : starr regrets everything that she did . she said she owes us both a big apology . sonny : i do n't make it a habit of , you know ... forgiving people who try to kill me , but i did see the kind of pain in her eyes . michael : starr was out of her mind with grief . she did something she would n't do under normal circumstances . and when i talked to her today , i realized that ... i can forgive her . sonny : that 's the same way i feel about kate . she had no control over what was going on with her . michael : how is she ? sonny : she 's getting the help she needs . with any luck , the worst part is over . kate : after everything i 've done , everything i 've done to sonny , he stood by me . he 's forgiven me . do you know what a miracle that is ? ewen : i think we all possess a deep reservoir of compassion . kate : no . not after this . if i have johnny 's child , he will never be able to get past that . ewen : let 's just slow down a minute , okay ? we do n't even know if you 're pregnant . kate : i know my body . ewen : and it 's had to weather an enormous amount of trauma over these past few months . kate : so is that what you think this is , is stress ? ewen : there are any number of potential causes , from stress to the medication . kate : or i could be carrying johnny zacchara 's child ! ewen : there 's only one way to know for sure . a pregnancy test . elizabeth : sam was n't thinking . it was just something she said in the heat of the moment . jason : she threw our friendship in my face when i confronted her about mcbain . and i know that she was n't happy when i asked you to bail me out of jail . she did n't say anything , but i could tell that she was hurt . elizabeth : well , she was pregnant with franco 's baby , and you were being questioned about his murder . i mean , did n't you explain to her that you were trying to spare her ? jason : it does n't matter . i did what i did . i got to live with it . i really wish you would see that none of this is your -- jason : you know what ? i do n't want to talk about this anymore , okay ? sam : john , i never got a chance to thank you . i mean , for everything you did . you delivered my baby in a motel . mcbain : yeah , they did n't mention anything about that at the front desk . sam : i ca n't stop thinking about him . how -- how it felt to hold him . i mean , i looked down at him . he was so beautiful . he was so perfect . [ sighs ] now he 's gone . i just ... i came back to get my stuff . i have to leave . mcbain : what ? where you gon na go ? sam : my mom 's . i know it 's a little chaotic there , but i think it 'd be good for me to be around family . mcbain : yeah , given everything that 's happened , maybe that 's the best place to be . huh . well ... i guess this is goodbye . sam : [ laughs ] you do n't have to be so dramatic . i 'm leaving a motel , not port charles . mcbain : i know . but i am . johnny : is that an original composition ? starr : yeah . i wrote it awhile ago , but i never sang it in front of anyone . johnny : do n't tell me you 're getting stage fright . starr : nope . i 'm going to sing this for cole and hope . hang your coat up by the light it 's cold as loneliness outside and it 's too hard to find the words tonight to say goodbye michael : i owe johnny an apology . sonny : what ? you owe him nothing . michael : well , he was telling the truth . i mean , he did n't try to kill anthony or frame you . sonny : michael , all johnny 's trying to do is bring me down . look what he did to kate . he 's taken advantage of her mental illness . you know what that is ? that 's a coward . that 's a user . michael : yeah . he was wrong . no question . i 'm just saying that he was n't guilty of what i was accusing him of . sonny : oh , okay . so he had one good day . michael : look , i 'm just saying that sometimes people can surprise you , you know . turns out mom was right to believe in him . actually , i should probably tell her that he 's innocent . sonny : you know what ? i 'm sure she already knows . i would not be surprised if they 're already back together . todd : starr is my daughter . and every time i look at her , she 's still ... i just -- i feel like i have to protect her . carly : there 's a fine line between protecting and controlling , and you will cross it , and starr will resent you . todd : i have a good reason to be worried . the only reason she 's staying in town is to make an album with your ex . johnny zacchara does not have the best reputation . he still is your ex , right ? carly : i need to check on the chocolates -- todd : oh , no ! you took him back ? carly : okay , you 're the one that stood right here in the hotel lobby and told me that some people get caught up in the moment and they hurt the people they care about . todd : yeah , i was talking about me -- me and blair , not you and that loser . carly : johnny 's sorry , and he 's been doing everything he can to make up for it . todd : really ? how ? flowers ? more flowers ? jewelry ? did he pony up for a diamond ? carly : no , he gave me something more valuable . todd : what , a helicopter ? carly : cards on the table . he swore there 'd be no more secrets . todd : and you fell for that ? listen , every single time that i 've told a woman that there were no more secrets , it 's because i had a secret . carly : okay ! you know what ? i believe johnny , so i 'm not gon na waste my time second - guessing him . and you know what ? you should n't either . todd : all right . it 's your heart . but that does n't mean that i 'm gon na let him work an angle on my daughter . carly : johnny 's not gon na take advantage of starr . todd : oh , right . you 're such a great judge of his character , that i should take your word for it . carly : you should take my word as a parent . johnny went out of his way to keep michael out of the business . todd : `` the business . `` is that what they call the mob these days ? carly : this recording contract is legit . johnny 's never gon na put starr in a position where she can get hurt . starr : hanging on to time hoping for another day but i wo n't smile again without you where is yesterday ? where are all those plans we made ? why 'd you have to go so far away ? ewen : kate , is everything all right ?

johnny : let 's just say i 've done some things i 'm not proud of . starr : my last producer made a porn . i 'm sure you ca n't get worse than that . todd : you think johnny 's gon na make you happy , go for it . i mean , i think you can do better , but it 's your life . carly : that 's refreshing . todd : starr 's life , on the other hand ... carly : so you 're gon na stick around and meddle . todd : are you kidding ? i 'm her father . it 's my god - given right to meddle . carly : far be it from me to take away your god - given right , but i 'm just saying , you do n't have anything to worry about . todd : johnny zacchara is a less - than - reliable human being and comes from a seriously demented family . and if you knew anything about my family , you 'd know i would never say anything like that lightly . carly : i 'm not saying johnny 's perfect , okay ? i mean , his father -- not his father , but the man who raised him -- he 's missing . and when johnny knew that my uncle was under suspicion -- todd : luke spencer 's your uncle . carly : yes . that 's not the point . the point is that luke was arrested for killing johnny 's grandfather . and johnny told me . todd : that makes johnny a tattletale . carly : he 's not a tattletale ! he came to me , and he told me the truth ! cards on the table . that 's all i 'm saying . have a nice day . todd : [ laughing ] okay . `` new commissioner releases roomie . `` that 's the best this paper 's got ?

sonny : kate got shot at our wedding . i almost got her killed . connie , i guess , emerged in a way to protect her from me . michael : is that what the psychiatrist told you ? sonny : doctors say that in most cases of d.i.d . , the alter comes from a childhood trauma . but we -- we grew up together . if something happened , i would have known . michael : but you and kate broke up , right ? sonny : well , we did n't break -- she cut me out completely . we were supposed to run away together . she never showed up . she never contacted me . she went her way . i went mine . now that i 'm thinking about it ... that was the last time that i saw the connie i knew . michael : when ? sonny : connie falconeri was 17 when she left me standing on that corner in brooklyn . next time i saw her , she was kate howard . kate : oh , god ! ewen : kate , i promise you , you 're not pregnant . kate : no . i prayed . i prayed every night to god . i prayed that he would n't let this happen . but he did . ewen : listen to me . whatever you 're seeing , it 's not real . kate : [ crying ] how can i have a baby , doctor ?

starr : yeah . it was n't sonny . he had nothing to do with it . johnny : wow . i 'm sorry for trying to convince you that ... he was the one that was responsible . starr : you did n't ask me to steal your gun or to try to shoot sonny . i did that all on my own . and i apologized to michael because now i know that his dad had nothing to do with it , and i told him that you did n't either . you know , i stood face to face with the person who took everything from me , and i wanted to hate them so badly , but i ... i could n't . not the way i did when i thought it was sonny . johnny : so , that 's it ? it 's over for you ? starr : well , i think it would be different if i thought that they died because of some mobster 's vendetta . johnny : different how ? starr : i could never be in the same room as that person and not want them to suffer . carly : you helped deliver téa 's baby in the middle of a rainstorm . you got her and her kid to the hospital . that baby would have died without you . i mean , you have no idea what kind of loss that is . todd : and you do ? carly : [ sighs ] my best friend 's wife , sam morgan , she just lost her baby . todd : how 's she doing ? carly : i did n't think you knew her . todd : well , you seem affected by it , so ... carly : well , it 's awful . i mean , this is n't the first baby sam 's lost , and she 's devastated . and jason 's devastated . i mean , he was n't the father , but he would have raised the baby with sam , and they would have worked things out , and they would have been happy . elizabeth : wait , you 're responsible for whatever you did to mcbain , but you 're not responsible for the death of that baby . jason : if mcbain got the baby to the hospital , he 'd still be alive , elizabeth . elizabeth : i know that 's what sam thinks , but the baby died from respiratory failure . jason : at least the baby would be in the hospital , could get help , put it on a ventilator , you know , do something . elizabeth : there was no guarantee that he would have survived , and if you ca n't take my word for it , then you need to talk -- jason : we 're never gon na know , because i sent those guys after mcbain . i wanted to get him out of the picture , because i thought that 's gon na solve my problems . elizabeth : when you love someone and you see them slipping away , sometimes you just do n't think straight . i 'm not placing blame , but there was a time when sam was so desperate to hang on to you , she watched our son be kidnapped . she watched us frantically searching for him and said nothing . jason : she 'll always regret that . elizabeth : and you will always regret this . mcbain : why do n't you grab a seat over there ? sam : no , i 'm fine . mcbain : you 're not fine . and neither am i . look at me . i 'm holding a purse , all right ? look at -- you 're lucky i do n't run you right back to that hospital . sam : they would just turn you around . nothing 's physically wrong with me , anyway . i mean , i 'm almost fully recovered . what about you ? mcbain : hmm ? sam : hmm ? how are those cracked ribs ? i know what happened , john . i know why you did n't come back for me and my baby after you went to get the car . mcbain : yeah , that will teach me not to skip out on a bill next time . sam : do n't . it was jason 's fault . mcbain : i do n't -- i do n't think it matters whose fault it was . sam : well , it does to me . jason had those guys beat you up , and i will never forgive him for that . elizabeth : for what it 's worth , i told you were really sorry about everything . jason : and how 'd that go over ? elizabeth : like you 'd expect . she 's not in the right frame of mind to hear anyone defend you . she even told me that ... jason : what ? what did she tell you ? elizabeth : later . i 'll tell you later . jason : no , i 'd like know . what did she say ? elizabeth : she told me that the two of you were over ... and that now you 're all mine . mcbain : there 's no way he could have known what was gon na happen . sam : you are not defending him right now . mcbain : no . no , but , you know ... i have this way of provoking people , you know , and the way he reacted was ... not a total surprise . i mean , the timing caught me off guard . sam : oh , yeah . me too . i mean , if jason were really willing to support me , to open his heart to me and my child , he would -- he would have been there , and i would have been at home when i went into labor . but when he finally decided it was okay , that he could raise franco 's baby , it was too late . i mean , for all of us , especially my baby . carly : why 'd you come back to port charles ? todd : i would think that you would want to encourage a repeat customer . carly : you came here to help star , and now she 's out of jail and all the charges have been dropped , so why are you here ? todd : there 's a grand total of one person that can stand me in llanview . he 's this big . and he thinks i 'm spider - man . my own sister , viki , she ca n't stand me right now . she might come around . but ... and blair -- she would forgive everything that i 've ever done if i were the last man on earth , but right now she is punishing me by saying she 's in love with my ex - wife 's brother , who has a funny name . carly : oh , so there 's no chance that she could actually really like this guy . todd : oh , no way . but for the moment , blair 's like everybody else in llanview and hates me . carly : well , i can see why you need a change of scenery . todd : and starr . after everything she 's lost , i feel like i want to be close . carly : what does starr think about that ? you know , what does she think about her daddy looking over her shoulder ? todd : oh , she 's probably gon na tell me to get lost and go on and on about how she has to make it on her own . carly : you 're not gon na respect her wishes at all , huh ? todd : she 's a chick . she may say she 's tough , but deep down , she 's -- she 's vulnerable . starr : okay , this place is n't so bad . johnny : see ? you 're starting to see the possibilities . starr : anything to get started on my album . i need something new to focus on , other than thinking about a way to earn rent . johnny : wait . i thought you were an heiress or something . starr : i do n't want to live off a trust fund . i want to pay my own way . johnny : hey , i respect that . you know , for a while , i refused to take anything from my family , too , but eventually i caved . but , hey , if you think you can go it alone , good on you . starr : ask me that when i find an actual paying job . johnny : i 'll tell you what . why do n't you record here by day and work here at night ? starr : oh , i do n't think i 'm ready for that . but if you 're looking for a waitress ... johnny : okay . why do n't we wait until the renovation is finished , then we can find a job that properly suits your skill set . starr : how did i get so lucky ? ever since i 've come to port charles , you 've been the answer to all of my problems . johnny : [ chuckles ] why do n't we , uh , test out the acoustics , huh ? starr : right now ? johnny : yeah . consider it an audition . sonny : how 'd you know i was protecting kate ? michael : starr told me . sonny : [ chuckles ] that son of a bitch manning . i mean , the deal was that his daughter would go free if he kept his mouth shut about kate . michael : as far as i know , starr 's dad only told her . sonny : well , he was n't supposed to tell anybody . michael : yeah , he just wanted her to know the truth about how her boyfriend and little girl died , you know . you know , maybe finally it 'll bring her some peace . sonny : you want that for her ? michael : yeah . yeah , she 's been hurt enough . sonny : well , you were pretty angry when you saw her pointing a gun at me . you said you wanted her to pay for everything that she did and -- michael : starr regrets everything that she did . she said she owes us both a big apology . sonny : i do n't make it a habit of , you know ... forgiving people who try to kill me , but i did see the kind of pain in her eyes . michael : starr was out of her mind with grief . she did something she would n't do under normal circumstances . and when i talked to her today , i realized that ... i can forgive her . sonny : that 's the same way i feel about kate . she had no control over what was going on with her . michael : how is she ? sonny : she 's getting the help she needs . with any luck , the worst part is over . kate : after everything i 've done , everything i 've done to sonny , he stood by me . he 's forgiven me . do you know what a miracle that is ? ewen : i think we all possess a deep reservoir of compassion . kate : no . not after this . if i have johnny 's child , he will never be able to get past that . ewen : let 's just slow down a minute , okay ? we do n't even know if you 're pregnant . kate : i know my body . ewen : and it 's had to weather an enormous amount of trauma over these past few months . kate : so is that what you think this is , is stress ? ewen : there are any number of potential causes , from stress to the medication . kate : or i could be carrying johnny zacchara 's child ! ewen : there 's only one way to know for sure . a pregnancy test . elizabeth : sam was n't thinking . it was just something she said in the heat of the moment . jason : she threw our friendship in my face when i confronted her about mcbain . and i know that she was n't happy when i asked you to bail me out of jail . she did n't say anything , but i could tell that she was hurt . elizabeth : well , she was pregnant with franco 's baby , and you were being questioned about his murder . i mean , did n't you explain to her that you were trying to spare her ? jason : it does n't matter . i did what i did . i got to live with it . i really wish you would see that none of this is your -- jason : you know what ? i do n't want to talk about this anymore , okay ? sam : john , i never got a chance to thank you . i mean , for everything you did . you delivered my baby in a motel . mcbain : yeah , they did n't mention anything about that at the front desk . sam : i ca n't stop thinking about him . how -- how it felt to hold him . i mean , i looked down at him . he was so beautiful . he was so perfect . [ sighs ] now he 's gone . i just ... i came back to get my stuff . i have to leave . mcbain : what ? where you gon na go ? sam : my mom 's . i know it 's a little chaotic there , but i think it 'd be good for me to be around family . mcbain : yeah , given everything that 's happened , maybe that 's the best place to be . huh . well ... i guess this is goodbye . sam : [ laughs ] you do n't have to be so dramatic . i 'm leaving a motel , not port charles . mcbain : i know . but i am . johnny : is that an original composition ? starr : yeah . i wrote it awhile ago , but i never sang it in front of anyone . johnny : do n't tell me you 're getting stage fright . starr : nope . i 'm going to sing this for cole and hope . hang your coat up by the light it 's cold as loneliness outside and it 's too hard to find the words tonight to say goodbye michael : i owe johnny an apology . sonny : what ? you owe him nothing . michael : well , he was telling the truth . i mean , he did n't try to kill anthony or frame you . sonny : michael , all johnny 's trying to do is bring me down . look what he did to kate . he 's taken advantage of her mental illness . you know what that is ? that 's a coward . that 's a user . michael : yeah . he was wrong . no question . i 'm just saying that he was n't guilty of what i was accusing him of . sonny : oh , okay . so he had one good day . michael : look , i 'm just saying that sometimes people can surprise you , you know . turns out mom was right to believe in him . actually , i should probably tell her that he 's innocent . sonny : you know what ? i 'm sure she already knows . i would not be surprised if they 're already back together . todd : starr is my daughter . and every time i look at her , she 's still ... i just -- i feel like i have to protect her . carly : there 's a fine line between protecting and controlling , and you will cross it , and starr will resent you . todd : i have a good reason to be worried . the only reason she 's staying in town is to make an album with your ex . johnny zacchara does not have the best reputation . he still is your ex , right ? carly : i need to check on the chocolates -- todd : oh , no ! you took him back ? carly : okay , you 're the one that stood right here in the hotel lobby and told me that some people get caught up in the moment and they hurt the people they care about . todd : yeah , i was talking about me -- me and blair , not you and that loser . carly : johnny 's sorry , and he 's been doing everything he can to make up for it . todd : really ? how ? flowers ? more flowers ? jewelry ? did he pony up for a diamond ? carly : no , he gave me something more valuable . todd : what , a helicopter ? carly : cards on the table . he swore there 'd be no more secrets . todd : and you fell for that ? listen , every single time that i 've told a woman that there were no more secrets , it 's because i had a secret . carly : okay ! you know what ? i believe johnny , so i 'm not gon na waste my time second - guessing him . and you know what ? you should n't either . todd : all right . it 's your heart . but that does n't mean that i 'm gon na let him work an angle on my daughter . carly : johnny 's not gon na take advantage of starr . todd : oh , right . you 're such a great judge of his character , that i should take your word for it . carly : you should take my word as a parent . johnny went out of his way to keep michael out of the business . todd : `` the business . `` is that what they call the mob these days ? carly : this recording contract is legit . johnny 's never gon na put starr in a position where she can get hurt . starr : hanging on to time hoping for another day but i wo n't smile again without you where is yesterday ? where are all those plans we made ? why 'd you have to go so far away ? ewen : kate , is everything all right ? [ door opens ] kate : it 's ready . ewen : what does it say ? . ewen : kate , is it positive or negative ? kate : it 's a plus sign . [ sobs ] it 's -- it 's true . i 'm -- i 'm pregnant with johnny zacchara 's baby . johnny : yeah ! that is incredible . starr : stop ! you do not have to do that . johnny : this is nothing . wait until you got this entire place on their feet . starr : okay , i 'm not sure i 'm ready to perform live . johnny : okay , well , hey , first things first . we 'll record an album , right ? so come over here tomorrow and we 'll talk backup arrangements . starr : tomorrow ? johnny : yeah . i 'm not keeping you a secret any longer than i have to . starr : oh , gosh . this is all happening . i ca n't thank you enough . johnny : oh , forget it . starr : no , really . it means so much to me . you have no idea . johnny : well , you know ... i guess i should be the one that 's thanking you for giving me a chance to redeem myself . starr : redeem yourself for what ? johnny : let 's just say i 've done some things i 'm not proud of . starr : my last producer made a porn . i 'm sure you ca n't get worse than that . todd : you think johnny 's gon na make you happy , go for it . i mean , i think you can do better , but it 's your life . carly : that 's refreshing . todd : starr 's life , on the other hand ... carly : so you 're gon na stick around and meddle . todd : are you kidding ? i 'm her father . it 's my god - given right to meddle . carly : far be it from me to take away your god - given right , but i 'm just saying , you do n't have anything to worry about . todd : johnny zacchara is a less - than - reliable human being and comes from a seriously demented family . and if you knew anything about my family , you 'd know i would never say anything like that lightly . carly : i 'm not saying johnny 's perfect , okay ? i mean , his father -- not his father , but the man who raised him -- he 's missing . and when johnny knew that my uncle was under suspicion -- todd : luke spencer 's your uncle . carly : yes . that 's not the point . the point is that luke was arrested for killing johnny 's grandfather . and johnny told me . todd : that makes johnny a tattletale . carly : he 's not a tattletale ! he came to me , and he told me the truth ! cards on the table . that 's all i 'm saying . have a nice day . todd : [ laughing ] okay . `` new commissioner releases roomie . `` that 's the best this paper 's got ? carly : you think you can do any better ? todd : are you joking ? off the top of my head , without even reading the article ... um ... `` the divine miss devane . `` `` devane intervention . `` [ cell phone rings ] carly : this is carly . johnny : hey . it 's me . you busy ? todd : `` to err is spencer . to forgive -- devane . `` mcbain : you know i came to port charles for a reason . sam : to get something on sonny . it 's personal . about a woman . mcbain : my sister . sam : wow . that i - i did not know . hey ... why do n't you tell me about it ? mcbain : my dad was a cop . he was a good man , made some mistakes . he was killed in the line of duty . at the hospital , he told me he 'd been unfaithful to my mother ... and he had a daughter . he had n't seen her in a long time . and he made me promise to go find her and make sure she was all right . it was the last thing he said to me . sam : okay . i mean , of course you had to keep your promise . mcbain : when i finally tracked her down , her life had n't turned out the way my dad had hoped . she 'd fallen in with the wrong crowd , you know . she was hanging out with these people , you know , these guys that sort of think of themselves as glamorous , but really they 're just thugs in fancy suits . sam : talking about organized crime . mcbain : there was one guy in particular . his name was sonny corinthos . before i could get theresa away from the life ... sonny got her killed . sam : john , i 'm so sorry . mcbain : we went our separate ways . he did his thing . i did my thing . but i never forgot . and i told myself some day i was gon na make him pay for what he did . michael : look , star knows that kate did n't mean to cause that accident . she 's just ... sick . sonny : the psychiatrist says that the alter personality is a way for kate to protect herself , to deal with a trauma . i think i caused it . kate : [ sobs ] how can i be pregnant ? w - what are the odds ? ewen : this is a lot to process , okay ? we need to -- kate : no , i only -- we only had sex once ! how can i be pregnant ? oh , my god . what am i gon na do ? ewen : the plus sign means you 're pregnant . kate : i know that . ewen : this is a minus sign . kate , why would you say you 're pregnant when you 're not ? kate : what are you talking about ? i saw the results . i 'm pregnant . ewen : i 'm looking right at them . this is negative . kate : no , it 's not ! it 's positive ! it 's positive . oh ! oh , god . this is the worst thing that could ever happen . elizabeth : [ chuckles ] jason : so , what 's up with you and dr. keenan ? elizabeth : excuse me ? jason : well , i just know that you were really worried after , you know , kate knocked him out . elizabeth : uh , she did a little more than just knock him out . he was in the i.c.u . you know he had to have surgery . jason : okay , you were really glad when he was okay . elizabeth : he 's more than okay . he 's being released , and we kind of have a date tomorrow . jason : wait . a date . elizabeth : yeah . you know , i have n't allowed myself to think about romance , but i kind of like him . i mean , he 's nice , and he just -- he 's thoughtful and kind , and he understands me . jason : as long as he understands that if he does n't treat you right ... he 'll answer to me . sam : you want justice for your sister . that 's completely understandable . mcbain : thanks for listening . gon na have to put all that on hold for a little while . the warrant 's expired . it 's time for me to go home to natalie and liam . sam : so , uh , so i guess ... i guess this is goodbye . mcbain : looks that way . sam : you know , i never did figure out why you seemed so familiar . mcbain : maybe some day . sam : yeah . maybe in a random place , at some random time . i mean , that 's how these things happen , right ? a coincidence that does n't really feel like a coincidence . anyway ... [ chuckles ] safe travels . mcbain : you too . i hope you find what you 're looking for . you deserve to be happy . elizabeth : and you win again . jason : you said i should play fair . i 'm sorry . elizabeth : no . you should . that way when i do win , it 'll mean something . jason : listen , i hope dr. keenan 's right for you . you deserve to be happy . mcbain : goodbye , sam . sam : goodbye , john . carly : johnny ? both : hey . carly : why did you want me to meet you here ? and how did you even get in this place ? johnny : meet the new owner of the haunted star . well , co - owner . carly : owner ? johnny : yeah . carly : you gon na franchise ? you know , put strip clubs on every corner ? johnny : i do n't own a strip club anymore . carly : you got rid of vaughn 's . johnny : i 'm done with that life . i 'm starting a new one . carly : by running a casino . johnny : it 's not a casino anymore . carly : okay . well , i hope you 're not gon na use this tub for charters . i mean , i do n't even think the engine even works . i 'm sure luke sold parts for scrap years ago . johnny : you ever heard of the power of positive thinking ? come on . close your eyes . close them ! come on . carly : ugh ! okay . johnny : all right . what do you see ? carly : an old boat . i know . i 'm terrible at this game . i 'm sorry . johnny : not everybody has the visions that i do . it 's gon na be a night club . a legitimate one . it is . nothing but good times and good music . carly : starr manning . johnny : we 're gon na record her album here . carly : okay , well , then you better get yourself a flak jacket , because i just spent an hour defending you to her father . he is convinced that you 're gon na try and take advantage of his daughter . johnny : i already hurt her the day that she came over and i turned my back and i let her get her hands on my gun . if she had gone through with that whole thing and actually shot sonny , it would have ruined her life . carly : she did n't . johnny : yeah . no thanks to me . that whole thing , though , it scared the hell out of me -- the idea that my actions were affecting everybody else 's ... that my hatred for sonny was so strong that it poisoned everything i touched , and ... [ sighs ] i do n't want to be that guy anymore . carly : hey ... you 're not that guy . johnny : well , i may not be able to have made things better for starr , but i can certainly try and help her . carly : that 's exactly what i told her father . and when todd sees how sincere you are , you have nothing to worry about . johnny : [ chuckles ] todd : call this news ? starr : dad ? todd : hey . starr : hey . todd : i was worried about you . starr : why ? todd : why ? you 've got an awful lot to process . starr : because i found out that kate howard was responsible for the accident ? todd : anything you want to talk about ? starr : i went to see her . and i thought that i would be screaming and crying , but instead i ended up feeling sorry for her . she 's sick . she has what aunt viki and jessica had , and they got cured . i hope she will , too . todd : well , we talked about being better people , but ... that was fast . look at you , all compassionate . starr : after i almost killed someone . i almost threw my whole life away . i would still be in lockup if you had n't -- if you were n't here . i told you that i did n't need you , and i did . i 'm really glad that you are here . todd : any chance you could tell that to your mother ? starr : actually , uh , i did talk to her . she says you do n't want to stay in llanview . todd : yeah , i 'm gon na move to port charles and pursue my childhood dream of being a rock star . starr : you heard that i started recording my album . todd : yeah . with johnny zacchara . starr : yes . johnny . we started today , actually . he 's a really great guy . todd : oh , those are like the worst words a father could ever hear . starr : it 's true . what ? todd : it 's nice to see you smile . starr : yeah . i think for the first time since i lost cole and hope , i am finding reasons to smile . michael : dad , i do n't understand . how could you have caused kate 's condition ? sonny : kate got shot at our wedding . i almost got her killed . connie , i guess , emerged in a way to protect her from me . michael : is that what the psychiatrist told you ? sonny : doctors say that in most cases of d.i.d . , the alter comes from a childhood trauma . but we -- we grew up together . if something happened , i would have known . michael : but you and kate broke up , right ? sonny : well , we did n't break -- she cut me out completely . we were supposed to run away together . she never showed up . she never contacted me . she went her way . i went mine . now that i 'm thinking about it ... that was the last time that i saw the connie i knew . michael : when ? sonny : connie falconeri was 17 when she left me standing on that corner in brooklyn . next time i saw her , she was kate howard . kate : oh , god ! ewen : kate , i promise you , you 're not pregnant . kate : no . i prayed . i prayed every night to god . i prayed that he would n't let this happen . but he did . ewen : listen to me . whatever you 're seeing , it 's not real . kate : [ crying ] how can i have a baby , doctor ? i 'm only 17 years old . home . jason : aw , that 's it ? no rematch ? one more game . elizabeth : nope . i ca n't . i got to go . jason : okay . well , uh , thank you for ... for this . elizabeth : hey , thanks for the pool lesson . you gon na be okay ? jason : yeah . i 'll be okay . elizabeth : okay . and we all fall down and we broke our crown jason : [ sighs ] and where is redemption now ? johnny : so , i got a call out to the contractors . i 'm gon na even hire an extra crew if that means this place gets open in time . carly : wow . you 're gon na make this place something special . johnny : yeah , well , it 's easy when i got the inspiration . i want to be the man that you deserve , carly . and , uh ... and i think the haunted star is the perfect start . carly : then we can put the past behind us . johnny : yeah . starr : so , do you feel better ? todd : hmm . about what ? starr : about johnny . you said yourself you could see how me working with johnny makes me happy , right ? so you do n't really have to stick around much longer . todd : i would n't go that far . starr : are you serious about moving to port charles ? todd : sure . why not ? starr : you do n't have a newspaper here . you 're going to quit making life miserable for briggs ? what are you gon na do here ? todd : i got a few ideas . michael : all right , i 'll see you , dad . sonny : all right . listen , no -- i do n't have to tell you , but no one has to know that kate was responsible for the accident . michael : oh , yeah . i understand . sonny : good . michael : you really love her , do n't you ? sonny : sometimes it takes a little while to realize how much . and , uh , you know , this is not her fault . and i 'm gon na do whatever i can to get her help so she can figure out why she 's sick . kate : [ crying ] oh , god ! oh , my god ! ewen : you 're 17 years old ?

[ scene_break ] jennifer : if i have this baby , are you -- are you just going to see me through ? will you still love me ?

[ lucinda sighs ] i do n't trust you . but if you -- and you are -- the man who convinced my daughter not to fall on her sword , then you have my genuine appreciation . but i 'll keep my eye on you . keith : is she always like that ? lily : you should see her when she 's really cranky . i 'm sorry . keith : it 's all right . you know , she 's just trying to protect you , trying to do the right thing . thank you for standing up for me there . you did n't have to do that . lily : i owe you . thank you for making luke and me face the truth . there 's so much that i 'm so sorry for when it comes to your sister . i might not have done that horrible thing to her , but i did some very , very awful things to her that i 'm not very proud of . and i ca n't say i 'm sorry to her , so i 'm saying it to you . i 'm sorry .

[ scene_break ] brooke : i thought we could report on forrester 's collection from behind the scenes , the next one coming up , kind of like what we were talking about . so , we 'll photograph the models from backstage as they 're going down the catwalk , and we 'll capture that moment when they actually step onto the catwalk , so it 'll be really magical . and we 'll get that feeling of the tension building , the excitement , the electricity , the anticipation . and that ... is how i feel every time i 'm with you . energized . alive . i feel like , together , we could do anything . bill : it 's good . go with it . brooke : so you like it ? bill : yeah , uh , take it to your creative team , get their input , and , uh , let me know how that goes . brooke : well , that 's only part of it . bill : you do n't have to walk me through it , brooke . when you 're ready to launch , come back to me . brooke : you were n't kidding when you said you were gon na be hands off . bill : you 're a pro . just ... do your thing . brooke : [ chuckles ] okay , now , i do n't know if that 's supposed to be a compliment or you 're just trying to get rid of me . bill ? is everything all right ? bill : fine . i said i like it . brooke : i know what this is . you 're worried about liam . bill : yeah . i just do n't know what 's going on with him . brooke : i just ca n't believe there 'd be a problem between those two . they seemed like they were in a very stable place in their relationship . bill : well , sometimes stable does n't last . you know , when the weather 's good , it 's easy . you just point at the horizon and keep going . but you find out what you 're made of when the storm blows in . brooke : i think they 've learned to handle that pretty well . bill : some storms are harder to navigate than others . brooke : so you think maybe they 've come across one of those ? bill : i do n't know . i just hope they 're smart enough to ride it out , not make a decision they both might regret . just have to sit tight and wait for it to blow over .

carly : michael , it 's mom . i 'm just checking in . i have been everywhere , and i have found no sign of aj look , if you find aj , no matter what condition he 's in , call me , please . kiki : i do n't even know why we 're here , morgan . franco escaped out of a window to leave this place . why would he hang around ? morgan : yeah , well , maybe someone saw him . i mean , a guy goes flying by in a hospital gown , you 'd probably notice , would n't you ? kiki : probably . so ? morgan : so , maybe you 'd stop him , bring him back here . kiki : [ sighs ] i guess it 's possible . morgan : look , i mean , we made all these fliers . we might as well put them up just in case . excuse me . ellie : what is it ? morgan : um , we 're looking for this guy . he 's a patient here , and , uh , he took off . have you seen him anywhere ? ellie : no . sorry . kiki : this is driving me crazy . where the hell is he , morgan ? franco : i 'm definitely your dad . ava kept me from you from all those years . kiki : and ava lied . ava lied to you , she lied to us . and i 'm so sorry that i have to hurt you like this , but ... you 're not my biological father . franco : [ breathing quickly ] spinelli : she is so beautiful , is n't she ? lulu : yeah . she is . [ gasps , chuckles ] she always makes that face , like she 's sizing up the situation , figuring everything out . [ chuckles ] she gets that from her dad . ellie : that 's just it , damian . that little girl is n't dante and lulu 's daughter . she 's yours . spinelli : where did the proud papa get off to , anyway ? lulu : work . unfortunately , he got called away on a case . dante : ma . olivia : [ sobbing ] dante . dante : ma , i 'm sorry . ma , i 'm sorry . olivia : who would do this to connie ? dante : i do n't know . but i 'm about to find out , okay ? olivia : what are you saying ? are you saying you know who did this ? dante : i got a lead , but it 's not concrete . olivia : who ? who is it ? who is it ? dante : you know i ca n't tell you that . alexis : listen , we 're gon na let dante do his job , all right ? i 'll stay close . dante : thank you . olivia : you find who did this . you make them pay ! dante : do n't worry . i will get him . olivia : [ sniffles , sobs ] sonny : get up on your feet , you worthless bastard . aj : [ groaning ] sonny , what ? what is it ? sonny : you 're gon na ask me that ? aj : what -- sonny : you spineless bastard ! you want to play innocent with me ? i 'm gon na tell you what it is ! you killed connie ... aj : hey , hey , whoa , whoa , hey . sonny : ... so now ... aj : sonny . sonny : ... i 'm gon na kill you . aj : no . sonny , no . sonny : no ? aj : please . sonny : huh ? aj : come on , come on , sonny . put that away . sonny : where -- where you going ? where you going ? you got no place to hide . you 're not getting out of here alive . aj : please , you got this wrong . sonny : i do n't want to -- i do n't want to hear it ! okay ? you got something to say ? 'cause these are your last words . say it ... before i end ... aj : no . sonny : ... your miserable life . aj : come on , sonny , please . lulu : dante did n't give me many details , only that it was a shooting . i 'm guessing it 's all hands on deck . spinelli : that 's most unfortunate . i ca n't imagine any new father wanting to leave his daughter 's side . [ baby coos ] lulu : which means he will hurry back as soon as he can . spinelli : of course . i mean , dante is -- he 's most devoted . lulu : well , in the meantime , my baby and i are not hurting for company . spinelli : were you able to visit maxie in recovery ? lulu : mac said that she was n't receiving visitors . she had been sedated . spinelli : that 's a most concerning word . did he give a reason for the induced slumber ? lulu : did you not know ? maxie suffered a crisis after the cesarean . spinelli : a - a crisis ? but all seemed to be going well . lulu : maxie started hemorrhaging when they were closing her up . it was pretty bad . spinelli : i was in the observation room . she smiled at me ! so i thought she was fine , so i left . that must have been when it happened . lulu : it 's okay . she 's okay . spinelli : i should have stayed with her . lulu : no . no , no . you could n't have known . none of us did . dr. chu stopped the bleeding , and she 's gon na be okay . spinelli : i 'm grateful and relieved . i just ... i ca n't believe that maxie was fighting for her life and i did n't even know . lulu : yeah , i felt the same way . maxie had a c - section delivering my daughter , and , i mean , she went through all of this because of dante and me . spinelli : but you 're certain she 's gon na recover , right ? lulu : absolutely . spinelli : did you -- did you get to see her , though ? right . no . right . she was already sedated . um , i 'm sorry . i 'm just a little scattered . lulu : no , it 's okay . i understand . i - i 've been totally freaked out . especially since mac told me that , uh , maxie had been agitated . spinelli : agitated ? lulu : she kept talking about the baby . spinelli : may i inquire what about the baby ? lulu : um , apparently she kept saying that the baby was hers . but to be honest with you , none of this surprises me . spinelli : it does n't ? lulu : in the last few months , whenever we would talk about the baby , i felt like maxie was getting really attached . spinelli : well , i mean , i guess that explains it , then . lulu : not all of it . maxie said one another thing . she did n't just say that the baby was hers . she said that it was yours , too . morgan : mom , what are you doing here ? did something happen to joss ? carly : uh , other than the fact that she 's spending a month with her father in australia . morgan : oh , right . um , i 'm sorry . carly : she 'll be happy to know you thought about her . morgan : yeah . um , so why -- why are you here ? is it dad ? carly : aj aj morgan : right . right , right , right . yeah , michael 's been worried about him . carly : with good reason . i mean , i told michael i would help him search . i have been in every bar on every block on van ness . i thought i should check the e.r . morgan : uh , michael thinks aj 's been drinking again . i 'm sorry i did n't tell you . just with the whole franco crisis , i feel like -- kiki : i knew all about aj michael told me . carly : so , uh , what is this franco crisis ? kiki : franco 's missing . ellie : [ sighs ] ellie : [ sobbing ] can you ever forgive me ? spinelli : ellie , to be absolutely frank , i - i ca n't even look at you right now . ellie : [ sniffles ] franco : do n't do anything i would n't do . i 'm just saying . it 's a long way down . dante : hey . michael : bro , what 's up ? oh , uh , i got your text . maxie had the baby . congratulations . dante : yeah . thanks . michael : yeah . i ca n't wait to meet my new niece . i 'm probably gon na stop by there first thing tomorrow morning . probably got your hands full with all the descending relatives , right ? actually , why -- why you here ? should n't you be at the hospital , or are you trying to avoid diaper duty ? dante : no , i 'd love to be doing that right now . uh , i need to talk to aj , ask him some questions . michael : about what ? about what , dante ? dante : about a murder . michael : murder ? who -- who was killed ? dante : my cousin , connie . olivia : [ sobbing ] i need to see sonny . god , he 's got to be in pieces right now . where the hell could he have gone ? alexis : i 've never been very good at anticipating where he goes or what he does , but i can guarantee that he 's not handling his grief very well . olivia : no , he is not . alexis : my point is , whatever he 's doing , he 's not thinking clearly . olivia : no . it just does n't make any sense . you think he just wandered off ? i mean , he was in there with connie . he called 911 . where the hell did he go ? aj : what are you saying ? connie 's dead ? sonny : yeah , she 's dead ! aj : come on . sonny : bleeding all over the floor of her office . i tried to save her , aj but i could n't ! you know why ? ! because she was shot ! you put a bullet in her ! and now ... i 'm gon na put a bullet in you ! ellie : did n't anyone teach you not to sneak up on people on roofs ? you scared me . franco : yeah , i get that a lot . unlike you . probably never scare anybody , do you ? heard you coming from two stories down . ellie : are you even allowed to be up here ? you know , this is a restricted area . franco : what are you doing here ? ellie : well , i work here . franco : well , i pay to be here , so that 's the money they pay you with . so , technically , i 'm your boss . i say you 're the one that 's not allowed up on the roof . ellie : it does n't work like that . franco : you sure ? ellie : the point is , you should n't be up here , because it 's not safe . franco : that 's why i like it . ellie : i 'm sure your loved ones would n't be happy to hear that . franco : what makes you think i have loved ones ? ellie : of course you have them . franco : i think you 're confused . ellie : franco , right ? yeah , well , people are looking for you , so ... franco : who gave you this ? ellie : your daughter . franco : lauren katherine `` kiki `` jerome is not my daughter , no matter what her mother would have the world believe . and i did believe . now the only person in the world that i actually care about is out of my life . ellie : [ scoffs ] what a coincidence . same thing just happened to me . spinelli : so , am i to understand that in maxie 's post - partum delirium , she claimed that your baby was hers and ... mine ? lulu : this was all according to mac , but he did emphasize that maxie was pretty drugged up , not exactly coherent . but i do n't know . i do n't know how to make sense of all of this . what about you ? spinelli : me ? lulu : can you think of any reason why maxie would say that ? michael : c - connie 's dead ? dante : yeah . she was shot in her office . that 's where i just came from . michael : why -- why do you want to talk to aj ? dante , come on . aj would n't -- would n't do this . dante : michael , michael , given aj 's state of mind recently , i do n't think anyone 's sure what he can do . michael : he just lost elq . that does n't mean he 's gon na do something like this . dante : and -- and he was upset at connie for writing that article . michael : it does n't mean he 's gon na kill her ! dante : michael , he broke into sonny 's house the day the article came out . he confronted connie , threatened her . you were there . michael : he would n't do -- he would n't do this . what makes you think that -- that aj did this , besides a run - in in the past ? dante : connie pointed to aj michael : what ? dante : her blood , michael . she wrote his name in her own blood . olivia : i really wish i knew where sonny went . alexis : okay . let 's find him . i 'll call shawn . olivia : it just -- it does n't make any sense . he was in there with her . where would he go ? he would n't leave her alone . alexis : she 's not alone . olivia : she 's in there with strangers . she needs to be with her family . alexis : listen , it 's not a good idea , and this is why -- listen , listen -- because the police need to do their job . olivia : i wo n't be trouble . i need to be with my cousin ! alexis : olivia . officer : i 'm sorry , ma'am . you ca n't come in here . olivia : listen , listen , she 's my cousin . listen , my son 's a cop , so i totally understand how this works . i promise i wo n't even get in the way . you wo n't even know that -- alexis : olivia , you need to sit down . olivia : [ gasps ] oh , god ! alexis : let 's go sit down , all right ? olivia : [ sobbing ] who would do this to her ? alexis : help me . olivia : wait a minute . wait . what is that ? aj : sonny , please do n't do this . please , please do n't do it . please . sonny : begging 's not gon na save you now . aj : lis -- listen . listen to me . i ... sonny : you thought you could get away with it , aj , and you could n't . you might have killed connie , but she 's taking you down . you know why ? she named you ! she wrote your name ... in her own blood . aj : sonny , this is wrong . this is all wrong . sonny : i want to hear you say it . aj : say what ? sonny : i want to hear you say what you did to connie . i mean , come on . we all know you hated her , aj you blame her for losing elq . but you did n't need her for that . we all know that that 's what you 're great at -- losing . that 's what defines you . aj : please . listen -- sonny : you could n't even kill her when she was unarmed on the first try ! then you went back and you had to finish the business ! aj : no . sonny : confess and die with a clear conscience . aj : [ breathing heavily ] [ sniffs ] sonny : you 're not gon na do that , right , aj ? i figured that , so i 'm gon na -- i 'm gon na give you a choice that you would understand . confess and die quickly , or do n't and i will make it so slow and ugly for you . confess ! now ! aj : [ sniffs ] carly : he climbed out of a hospital window ? kiki : we went in his room . his bed was empty . his window was open . carly : so , this whole routine about him being a changed man is just one big lie . he does n't want to face his charges . he 's running the first second he gets . kiki : no , no , no . that 's not why . i - i think it was because he was upset that he could n't be danny 's bone - marrow donor . he thought it was the one good thing he could do to prove that he was worthy of being my father , then he found out that he is n't . franco : kindred spirits . what are the odds of you and i meeting together like this on the rooftop ? it 's cool . i could use some advice . what did you do when you found out that your kid is not your kid ? ellie : what ? no . no . i do n't have any kids . i do n't even want kids . not really . i do n't know . i do n't think so . franco : [ scoffs ] who 'd want to bring another ginger into the world ? it 's rough on you guys , right ? ellie : um , no . i was referring to your description of losing the person you care most about , which , in my case , is my boyfriend . was my boyfriend . franco : that sucks . i 'm sorry . how 'd he die ? ellie : what ? he did n't die . he 's very much alive . he just does n't want anything to do with me . franco : why ? what 'd you do ? ellie : what do you assume i did something wrong ? franco : did n't you ? ellie : [ sighs ] okay . i did . but you really should n't make assumptions , you know . it 's rude . franco : only ... ellie : only what ? franco : well , might have been rude , but i was right . come on . you can tell me all about it . what 'd you do that was so bad ? ellie : i lied to the man that i love most and completely destroyed our relationship , okay ? and i do n't think he 's ever gon na forgive me . spinelli : i 'm afraid i ca n't shed any light on the intent of maxie 's ramblings . but , you know , maybe we 're not -- we 're not meant to . even when she 's lucid , maxie 's thought process is elliptical at best . trying to look for deeper meaning in her drug - fueled haze might just be a cause of grief and frustration . lulu : still ... high on medication , there just has to be a reason why she would say that my baby is hers -- and yours . do you think that this could be because of you ? spinelli : i do n't -- i do n't follow . lulu : maybe maxie has got some residual feelings for you . maybe she still cares about you . spinelli : i - i doubt that 's the case . maxie and i have been over for so long . there 's aquariums of water under that bridge . yeah . i do n't see us getting back together . lulu : well , of course not . you 're with ellie . spinelli : [ scoffs ] lulu : oh , i 'm sorry . are you still fighting ? spinelli : uh , no , no . we 're not fighting . we 're over . franco : your lie was really that bad ? ellie : i told myself i was equivocating for the most noble of purposes -- to protect someone , but that justification just rings hollow now . i hid something from damian that he had the right to know . and not just that , by keeping this information secret , i may have just ruined six lives . franco : six ? ellie : yes . franco : wow , you 're efficient . ellie : it 's not funny . franco : no , it 's not . a lie like that is really serious . a lie that hurt so many people , i think it requires something equally serious . ellie : it -- it sounds like you have some advice for me . franco : yeah , i do . you want my advice ? ellie : yeah , i mean , at this point , i 'm willing to entertain any ideas . i am dying to make it up to damian . franco : it 's an interesting choice of words , 'cause as i see it , you only have one choice . you should jump . michael : connie wrote aj 's name in her own blood ? there 's no mistake ? dante : i saw it with my own eyes . and now i need to see aj i know your impulse is gon na be to protect him , but that would be a mistake . michael : the kind of mistake you made with dad ? dante : the kind of mistake i made and regret . but , michael , i hate that this is happening to you , that you 're here right now . i wish to god you were n't , but you are , and you need to cooperate . connie is dead . i need to see aj michael : he 's -- he 's passed out in the den . dante : thank you . michael : he 's not gon na be much of a help to you , though . dante : why is that ? michael : he was drinking , okay ? i 'm trying to sober him up right now . dante : i still need to talk to him . michael : wait , uh , does dad know that connie 's dead ? dante : yeah , michael , he -- he made the 911 call . i 'm pretty sure he found her . michael : dad found connie dead ? dante : yeah , i have n't heard the tape , but everyone says it sounded like his voice on the other end of the line . he was n't at the scene by the time i got there . michael : if dad saw what you saw , aj 's name , he 's gon na come straight here . alexis : we 're gon na have to stand over here . olivia : connie was trying to tell us something ! she 's trying to say that aj did this . alexis : look , that 's a possibility . let 's not get ahead of ourselves . we do n't know anything yet . olivia : i know everything i need to know . aj had a massive hate - on for connie ever since she ran that story about kiki and elq . aj did this . aj did this , and connie is trying to tell us . alexis : sonny called 911 , so he must have seen it . olivia : that 's where he went . sonny went after aj alexis : so did dante , so do n't panic , all right ? he 's not gon na let sonny hurt aj aj : damn it , sonny ! listen to me ! sonny : there 's only one thing i want you to tell me . aj : what the hell do you want from me ? ! sonny : admit it ! aj : what do you want ? ! sonny : confess what you did to connie ! aj : i do n't know what you want to hear from me , sonny ! ah ! ah ! sonny : i do n't want to hear anything , then ! you ca n't come clean ? ! i figured ! i 'm tired of playing these games right now . you know what ? it 's time . get your head down . get your head down ! aj : no , please . sonny : come on , you bitch ! michael : dad , dad , stop ! ellie : you want me to kill myself ? franco : i do n't `` want `` anything . i do n't care what you do . i 'm just telling you how you can get forgiveness for your transgression . ellie : and what good is getting forgiveness if i 'm not even around to enjoy it ? franco : i do n't think you understand the impact that a lie has on the lied - tos -- the lie - ee ? do you say that ? it does n't matter . look , here 's the thing . if your lie was as big and as devastating as you say , then you 're never gon na be able to repair this relationship . trust me . i know that . ellie : oh , really ? and what makes you an expert ? franco : for 21 years , i was kept from my child . and then it turns out that her mother was lying to me . she 's not my child . i do n't even have a child . and for 21 years , i longed for something , for someone . i imagined what it would be like to be with her , and that 's gone . and now i want -- i want restitution . ellie : you want restitution ? like what ? what ? do you want your ex to jump off a building , too ? franco : no , death would be too good for ava jerome . ellie : oh , but it 's okay for me . look , i do n't know much about your situation -- franco : i do n't know anything about it , either . i do n't know why ava lied to me . i do n't know why she tried to convince me that she was pregnant . could n't have been for child support . she never asked me for a dime . it was n't to try and keep a hold over me . she got rid of me first chance she got . the only thing i know for sure is that ava was only thinking about ava . she did n't care that she screwed me over in the process . does n't care that she screwed kiki over in the process . ellie : okay , well , i suspect that there may be another side to the story , one that is perhaps more forgiving to the person who lied to you . franco : you 've never met ava jerome . ellie : no , you 're right . i have n't . but i really do n't understand how you 're drawing a parallel between her actions and mine . franco : [ chuckling ] really ? ellie : yeah , really . franco : you do n't see it ? ellie : no . franco : she 's a liar . you 're a liar . ellie : oh , no , no , no , no . i 'm not a liar . i made one mistake . and yes , it was horrible and completely destructive , but it 's not worth giving up on damian , and it 's certainly not worth killing myself over ! franco : well , i guess you just have no flair for the dramatic . ellie : i do n't need to become a martyr to get redemption . is that what you 're thinking about ? i thought you were on some big forgiveness tour . have n't you wrought havoc on scores of people ? i mean , according to your logic , you should have committed seppuku like 10 times over . franco : it 's really messy . there are other ways . ellie : but instead you are set on proving yourself worthy of a second chance , are n't you ? franco : well , yeah . ellie : yeah , well , so am i. damian is the best thing that has ever happened to me . and if i just surrender now and -- and slink off into the night , then i 'm doing as great a dishonor on our love as i am on my lie . franco : what i said before about you having no flair for the dramatic , i was wrong . you 're pretty good at it . ellie : you are free to mope around about all the wrong that has been done to you , completely forgetting about all the wrong that you 've done to others . but not me . i will fix my life . [ door opens , closes ] lulu : i hope you wo n't mind if i hold on to hope that you and ellie work it out . you guys were such a happy couple . and actually , you seemed really happy when you were with her . i think you 've grown a lot in her presence . she was really good for you . spinelli : i 'm not so sure . lulu : i better get back to the baby , keep her company while she waits for her dad to get here . spinelli : okay . [ door opens ] spinelli : [ sighs deeply ] morgan : i think we covered everyone on this floor , and it 's getting kind of late , so we should probably pack it in . kiki : we still have no idea where franco went . morgan : well , he 's bound to show up sooner or later . the cops are all over it . carly : and the cops are better equipped to handle this . morgan : yeah . my mom 's right . carly : and coming from morgan , that 's saying something . kiki : okay , fine . yeah . i guess we can get a fresh start in the morning . if you or michael find aj or franco , will you let me know ? carly : of course . kiki : thanks . morgan : thanks , mom . ellie : hi . there is a patient on the roof . he does n't seem suicidal , but he is definitely acting weird . i 'll call security . did you get a name ? ellie : just one . it 's that weird guy , franco . alexis : okay , i ca n't reach shawn , which means anything or nothing in regards to sonny , and i 'm sure he 'll come back here any minute . olivia : i know where sonny went . he 's gunning for aj , and i do n't need no psychic vision to tell me that . in fact , i do n't need these psychic visions period ! what the hell good are they ? i - i saw my cousin lying on the ground covered in blood , and i could n't do a damn thing to stop it ! alexis : olivia , you 're suffering a terrible loss . olivia : i know , but i knew ! i knew that connie was gon na die ! what good is it if i can have these glimpses of the future if [ sniffles ] i ca n't even help the people that i love ? alexis : i wish that i could explain this -- this gift -- olivia : it 's not a gift ! it 's a torture ! alexis : olivia , we know one thing for sure . what happened to connie is not your fault . we do n't know who 's to blame . olivia : [ sniffles ] the person to blame is aj quartermaine . i hope to god he is getting what he deserves . i hope dante 's late . i hope sonny kills him . sonny : get out of here . dante : drop the gun , sonny . sonny : i need to do this , dante . dante : sonny , i mean it . you got to drop the gun . michael : dante . dante : sonny , drop the gun . sonny : do you know what happened ? ! he killed connie ! dante : i know . i was just at her office . sonny : then you know aj did it ! she wrote his name in her blood ! she named aj ! dante : that 's why i 'm here , sonny . i need to take aj in . you let me handle this right now , okay ? sonny : no , no . he murdered my fiancée . i 'm gon na handle it . you understand me ? i 'm gon na kill him right now ! dante : he 's gon na pay , sonny . sonny : i do n't care ! dante : he 's gon na pay , sonny . sonny : no one 's gon na stop me ! dante : he 's gon na stand trial , and he 's gon na get convicted . sonny : i 'm gon na kill him right now , and you 're not gon na stop me ! no one can ! michael : not even me , dad ? sonny : michael , i 'm asking you . i 'm your father . walk out of here and leave . i do n't want you to see this . michael : dad , i 'm not going anywhere , okay , so if you want to murder aj , you got to do it right in front of me . sonny : okay , look , this has to be done . i ca n't let aj get away with this . [ voice breaking ] he murdered connie . he 's gon na pay now ! michael , he 's gon na pay ! michael : dad , i know , i know that you loved connie , okay ? but i love you , too ! so does dante ! so does morgan and kristina ! if you do this , you 're gon na be taken away from us ! sonny : it does n't -- it 's not about me , michael ! michael : this matters to me , okay ? ! this matters to me ! if you do this , you 're gon na be going to prison for the rest of your life . i 'm gon na be losing both you and aj and i know that does n't mean anything to you , but it means everything to me . look , i 'm -- i 'm your son . i 'm your son , okay ? and i am proud of that . and i am proud of you . and i 'll never forget that i 'm named after you , dad . okay , but like it or not , i am aj 's son , too . sonny : [ voice breaking ] do n't ask me to do this . michael : i am asking you , dad . i am begging you . look , look , if aj did this , if he killed connie , he 's gon na pay , okay ? with dante , the commissioner , the courts -- they 'll make sure it happens . it 's just ... dad , if it 's you -- if you kill aj , then everyone who loves you is gon na pay the price . sonny : i 'm sorry . i -- michael : and i will never look you in the eyes ever again , okay ? we wo n't be father and son anymore . nothing ! you 'll be nothing to me . just -- just do n't do that . put the gun down . for you and me . alexis : what 's going on ? olivia : i 'm just thinking . [ sniffles ] the last time i saw my cousin ... we fought . [ sniffles ] and now i 'm never gon na be able to make that right . i 'm never gon na be able to tell her that i 'm sorry . alexis : all right . all right . olivia : [ sobbing ] alexis : it 's okay . michael : dad ? do n't . aj : [ breathing heavily ] [ gasps ] oh , god . oh , god . thank you . sonny : do n't thank me . aj : ah ! sonny : spineless bastard . you got to thank michael , 'cause he 's the only one who could have saved you tonight . he 's all yours . aj : [ groans ] sonny : it 's on you . put him away . michael : dad , wait . sonny : it 's okay , michael . ellie : [ sighs ] spinelli : oh ! thousand apologies . ellie : i was just on my way to see you . spinelli : i was just leaving . ellie : damian , do you think you could spare just a few minutes to talk to me ? spinelli : ellie , i - i have nothing left to say . ellie : okay , that 's fine , but i do . spinelli : perhaps i do n't care to hear it . ellie : okay , well , that is certainly a possibility , but in the off - chance that you do , please , can i just say my piece ? spinelli : you have until the elevator arrives . ellie : okay , well , it wo n't take long . i just want to tell you that , damian , i love you so much , and i wo n't give up on us . [ door opens ] franco : look who changed her mind . carly : changed my mind about what ? franco : wow . ca n't a guy spend some time alone on a roof ? carly : you 're not gon na be alone for long . security 's on their way up . franco : what are you ? the advance team ? carly : no . i just heard , you know , this was , um , the place to be . also heard you had a rough couple hours . franco : oh , okay , so this is sympathy . carly : no . pity . let 's just call it pity . franco : that would be better . thank you . carly : i know you really wanted to help danny , so it must have hurt finding out you were n't a viable match . franco : sucks more for danny , do n't you think ? carly : i also know about silas clay . franco : oh , what ? that my daughter 's not my daughter ? yeah . you know wt ? i only really got to know her for , like , a few months , so no great loss , okay ? do n't get me wrong . i mean , i - i did ... really want to get to know her . i did . i knew it was too late for potato - sack races and whatever else fathers -- what do fathers do with their daughters ? carly : lots of things . franco : yeah , well , whatever those things are , i know that i missed the boat on all of them . but i just wanted to be her friend . and i wanted to prove to her that there 's more to me , you know ? i 'm not the notorious franco anymore . and what better way to do that than to save my nephew 's life ? which i would have done regardless , by the way . carly : of course . franco : [ sighs ] and now what ... who am i gon na prove myself to now ? carly : what about me ? carly : you came to port charles and you said you wanted to atone . you said you wanted to make amends to all the people that you 've hurt , including me . and i got to tell you , you have n't even scratched the surface there yet . franco : great work takes time . carly : then i guess you better get cracking . you need to focus . forget about all the easy ways out . forget about why you came up here . get back on track . you say you 've changed . make me believe it . lulu : [ humming ] ellie : what i did was awful and completely reprehensible and a million other adjectives , none of which are good . but our relationship was good . it -- it is good . and i wo n't let it go without a fight . spinelli : [ sniffs ] [ elevator bell dings ] carly : [ sighs ] [ door opens ] carly : you coming or not ? we knew that one day we would see the end we never thought it was now it seems impossible to comprehend but this ca n't be ... aj : thank you . you saved my life , michael . if you had n't have stepped in , sonny would have killed me . dante : you know what ? you can thank him later . my cousin is dead . and you 're gon na answer for it . olivia : [ sobs ] singer : so now i will say my goodbyes i 'm letting myself cry again praying that you 'll fly again one day i will find your eyes and it 's incomplete . | olivia wonders why sonny left connie 's office after calling 9 - 1 - 1 . she sees aj 's initials written in blood and determines that he must have gone after aj . alexis says dante already came to that conclusion and is going to intercede . olivia hopes dante gets there quickly . when dante arrives at the quartermaine mansion , michael insists that aj could n't possibly have killed connie . dante says connie wrote aj 's name with her blood . michael is afraid that sonny will come after aj . they go into the den and stop sonny from shooting aj . michael tells sonny that if he kills aj , he will go to prison for the rest of his life and michael will go from having two fathers to having none . sonny relents and tells dante to make sure aj pays . dante takes aj to the station . sonny returns to connie 's office just as the emts are wheeling her body away . he sees alexis hugging olivia and turns away . | <s>[INST] carly : michael , it 's mom . i 'm just checking in . i have been everywhere , and i have found no sign of aj look , if you find aj , no matter what condition he 's in , call me , please . kiki : i do n't even know why we 're here , morgan . franco escaped out of a window to leave this place . why would he hang around ? morgan : yeah , well , maybe someone saw him . i mean , a guy goes flying by in a hospital gown , you 'd probably notice , would n't you ? kiki : probably . so ? morgan : so , maybe you 'd stop him , bring him back here . kiki : [ sighs ] i guess it 's possible . morgan : look , i mean , we made all these fliers . we might as well put them up just in case . excuse me . ellie : what is it ? morgan : um , we 're looking for this guy . he 's a patient here , and , uh , he took off . have you seen him anywhere ? ellie : no . sorry . kiki : this is driving me crazy . where the hell is he , morgan ? franco : i 'm definitely your dad . ava kept me from you from all those years . kiki : and ava lied . ava lied to you , she lied to us . and i 'm so sorry that i have to hurt you like this , but ... you 're not my biological father . franco : [ breathing quickly ] spinelli : she is so beautiful , is n't she ? lulu : yeah . she is . [ gasps , chuckles ] she always makes that face , like she 's sizing up the situation , figuring everything out . [ chuckles ] she gets that from her dad . ellie : that 's just it , damian . that little girl is n't dante and lulu 's daughter . she 's yours . spinelli : where did the proud papa get off to , anyway ? lulu : work . unfortunately , he got called away on a case . dante : ma . olivia : [ sobbing ] dante . dante : ma , i 'm sorry . ma , i 'm sorry . olivia : who would do this to connie ? dante : i do n't know . but i 'm about to find out , okay ? olivia : what are you saying ? are you saying you know who did this ? dante : i got a lead , but it 's not concrete . olivia : who ? who is it ? who is it ? dante : you know i ca n't tell you that . alexis : listen , we 're gon na let dante do his job , all right ? i 'll stay close . dante : thank you . olivia : you find who did this . you make them pay ! dante : do n't worry . i will get him . olivia : [ sniffles , sobs ] sonny : get up on your feet , you worthless bastard . aj : [ groaning ] sonny , what ? what is it ? sonny : you 're gon na ask me that ? aj : what -- sonny : you spineless bastard ! you want to play innocent with me ? i 'm gon na tell you what it is ! you killed connie ... aj : hey , hey , whoa , whoa , hey . sonny : ... so now ... aj : sonny . sonny : ... i 'm gon na kill you . aj : no . sonny , no . sonny : no ? aj : please . sonny : huh ? aj : come on , come on , sonny . put that away . sonny : where -- where you going ? where you going ? you got no place to hide . you 're not getting out of here alive . aj : please , you got this wrong . sonny : i do n't want to -- i do n't want to hear it ! okay ? you got something to say ? 'cause these are your last words . say it ... before i end ... aj : no . sonny : ... your miserable life . aj : come on , sonny , please . lulu : dante did n't give me many details , only that it was a shooting . i 'm guessing it 's all hands on deck . spinelli : that 's most unfortunate . i ca n't imagine any new father wanting to leave his daughter 's side . [ baby coos ] lulu : which means he will hurry back as soon as he can . spinelli : of course . i mean , dante is -- he 's most devoted . lulu : well , in the meantime , my baby and i are not hurting for company . spinelli : were you able to visit maxie in recovery ? lulu : mac said that she was n't receiving visitors . she had been sedated . spinelli : that 's a most concerning word . did he give a reason for the induced slumber ? lulu : did you not know ? maxie suffered a crisis after the cesarean . spinelli : a - a crisis ? but all seemed to be going well . lulu : maxie started hemorrhaging when they were closing her up . it was pretty bad . spinelli : i was in the observation room . she smiled at me ! so i thought she was fine , so i left . that must have been when it happened . lulu : it 's okay . she 's okay . spinelli : i should have stayed with her . lulu : no . no , no . you could n't have known . none of us did . dr. chu stopped the bleeding , and she 's gon na be okay . spinelli : i 'm grateful and relieved . i just ... i ca n't believe that maxie was fighting for her life and i did n't even know . lulu : yeah , i felt the same way . maxie had a c - section delivering my daughter , and , i mean , she went through all of this because of dante and me . spinelli : but you 're certain she 's gon na recover , right ? lulu : absolutely . spinelli : did you -- did you get to see her , though ? right . no . right . she was already sedated . um , i 'm sorry . i 'm just a little scattered . lulu : no , it 's okay . i understand . i - i 've been totally freaked out . especially since mac told me that , uh , maxie had been agitated . spinelli : agitated ? lulu : she kept talking about the baby . spinelli : may i inquire what about the baby ? lulu : um , apparently she kept saying that the baby was hers . but to be honest with you , none of this surprises me . spinelli : it does n't ? lulu : in the last few months , whenever we would talk about the baby , i felt like maxie was getting really attached . spinelli : well , i mean , i guess that explains it , then . lulu : not all of it . maxie said one another thing . she did n't just say that the baby was hers . she said that it was yours , too . morgan : mom , what are you doing here ? did something happen to joss ? carly : uh , other than the fact that she 's spending a month with her father in australia . morgan : oh , right . um , i 'm sorry . carly : she 'll be happy to know you thought about her . morgan : yeah . um , so why -- why are you here ? is it dad ? carly : aj aj morgan : right . right , right , right . yeah , michael 's been worried about him . carly : with good reason . i mean , i told michael i would help him search . i have been in every bar on every block on van ness . i thought i should check the e.r . morgan : uh , michael thinks aj 's been drinking again . i 'm sorry i did n't tell you . just with the whole franco crisis , i feel like -- kiki : i knew all about aj michael told me . carly : so , uh , what is this franco crisis ? kiki : franco 's missing . ellie : [ sighs ] ellie : [ sobbing ] can you ever forgive me ? spinelli : ellie , to be absolutely frank , i - i ca n't even look at you right now . ellie : [ sniffles ] franco : do n't do anything i would n't do . i 'm just saying . it 's a long way down . dante : hey . michael : bro , what 's up ? oh , uh , i got your text . maxie had the baby . congratulations . dante : yeah . thanks . michael : yeah . i ca n't wait to meet my new niece . i 'm probably gon na stop by there first thing tomorrow morning . probably got your hands full with all the descending relatives , right ? actually , why -- why you here ? should n't you be at the hospital , or are you trying to avoid diaper duty ? dante : no , i 'd love to be doing that right now . uh , i need to talk to aj , ask him some questions . michael : about what ? about what , dante ? dante : about a murder . michael : murder ? who -- who was killed ? dante : my cousin , connie . olivia : [ sobbing ] i need to see sonny . god , he 's got to be in pieces right now . where the hell could he have gone ? alexis : i 've never been very good at anticipating where he goes or what he does , but i can guarantee that he 's not handling his grief very well . olivia : no , he is not . alexis : my point is , whatever he 's doing , he 's not thinking clearly . olivia : no . it just does n't make any sense . you think he just wandered off ? i mean , he was in there with connie . he called 911 . where the hell did he go ? aj : what are you saying ? connie 's dead ? sonny : yeah , she 's dead ! aj : come on . sonny : bleeding all over the floor of her office . i tried to save her , aj but i could n't ! you know why ? ! because she was shot ! you put a bullet in her ! and now ... i 'm gon na put a bullet in you ! ellie : did n't anyone teach you not to sneak up on people on roofs ? you scared me . franco : yeah , i get that a lot . unlike you . probably never scare anybody , do you ? heard you coming from two stories down . ellie : are you even allowed to be up here ? you know , this is a restricted area . franco : what are you doing here ? ellie : well , i work here . franco : well , i pay to be here , so that 's the money they pay you with . so , technically , i 'm your boss . i say you 're the one that 's not allowed up on the roof . ellie : it does n't work like that . franco : you sure ? ellie : the point is , you should n't be up here , because it 's not safe . franco : that 's why i like it . ellie : i 'm sure your loved ones would n't be happy to hear that . franco : what makes you think i have loved ones ? ellie : of course you have them . franco : i think you 're confused . ellie : franco , right ? yeah , well , people are looking for you , so ... franco : who gave you this ? ellie : your daughter . franco : lauren katherine `` kiki `` jerome is not my daughter , no matter what her mother would have the world believe . and i did believe . now the only person in the world that i actually care about is out of my life . ellie : [ scoffs ] what a coincidence . same thing just happened to me . spinelli : so , am i to understand that in maxie 's post - partum delirium , she claimed that your baby was hers and ... mine ? lulu : this was all according to mac , but he did emphasize that maxie was pretty drugged up , not exactly coherent . but i do n't know . i do n't know how to make sense of all of this . what about you ? spinelli : me ? lulu : can you think of any reason why maxie would say that ? michael : c - connie 's dead ? dante : yeah . she was shot in her office . that 's where i just came from . michael : why -- why do you want to talk to aj ? dante , come on . aj would n't -- would n't do this . dante : michael , michael , given aj 's state of mind recently , i do n't think anyone 's sure what he can do . michael : he just lost elq . that does n't mean he 's gon na do something like this . dante : and -- and he was upset at connie for writing that article . michael : it does n't mean he 's gon na kill her ! dante : michael , he broke into sonny 's house the day the article came out . he confronted connie , threatened her . you were there . michael : he would n't do -- he would n't do this . what makes you think that -- that aj did this , besides a run - in in the past ? dante : connie pointed to aj michael : what ? dante : her blood , michael . she wrote his name in her own blood . olivia : i really wish i knew where sonny went . alexis : okay . let 's find him . i 'll call shawn . olivia : it just -- it does n't make any sense . he was in there with her . where would he go ? he would n't leave her alone . alexis : she 's not alone . olivia : she 's in there with strangers . she needs to be with her family . alexis : listen , it 's not a good idea , and this is why -- listen , listen -- because the police need to do their job . olivia : i wo n't be trouble . i need to be with my cousin ! alexis : olivia . officer : i 'm sorry , ma'am . you ca n't come in here . olivia : listen , listen , she 's my cousin . listen , my son 's a cop , so i totally understand how this works . i promise i wo n't even get in the way . you wo n't even know that -- alexis : olivia , you need to sit down . olivia : [ gasps ] oh , god ! alexis : let 's go sit down , all right ? olivia : [ sobbing ] who would do this to her ? alexis : help me . olivia : wait a minute . wait . what is that ? aj : sonny , please do n't do this . please , please do n't do it . please . sonny : begging 's not gon na save you now . aj : lis -- listen . listen to me . i ... sonny : you thought you could get away with it , aj , and you could n't . you might have killed connie , but she 's taking you down . you know why ? she named you ! she wrote your name ... in her own blood . aj : sonny , this is wrong . this is all wrong . sonny : i want to hear you say it . aj : say what ? sonny : i want to hear you say what you did to connie . i mean , come on . we all know you hated her , aj you blame her for losing elq . but you did n't need her for that . we all know that that 's what you 're great at -- losing . that 's what defines you . aj : please . listen -- sonny : you could n't even kill her when she was unarmed on the first try ! then you went back and you had to finish the business ! aj : no . sonny : confess and die with a clear conscience . aj : [ breathing heavily ] [ sniffs ] sonny : you 're not gon na do that , right , aj ? i figured that , so i 'm gon na -- i 'm gon na give you a choice that you would understand . confess and die quickly , or do n't and i will make it so slow and ugly for you . confess ! now ! aj : [ sniffs ] carly : he climbed out of a hospital window ? kiki : we went in his room . his bed was empty . his window was open . carly : so , this whole routine about him being a changed man is just one big lie . he does n't want to face his charges . he 's running the first second he gets . kiki : no , no , no . that 's not why . i - i think it was because he was upset that he could n't be danny 's bone - marrow donor . he thought it was the one good thing he could do to prove that he was worthy of being my father , then he found out that he is n't . franco : kindred spirits . what are the odds of you and i meeting together like this on the rooftop ? it 's cool . i could use some advice . what did you do when you found out that your kid is not your kid ? ellie : what ? no . no . i do n't have any kids . i do n't even want kids . not really . i do n't know . i do n't think so . franco : [ scoffs ] who 'd want to bring another ginger into the world ? it 's rough on you guys , right ? ellie : um , no . i was referring to your description of losing the person you care most about , which , in my case , is my boyfriend . was my boyfriend . franco : that sucks . i 'm sorry . how 'd he die ? ellie : what ? he did n't die . he 's very much alive . he just does n't want anything to do with me . franco : why ? what 'd you do ? ellie : what do you assume i did something wrong ? franco : did n't you ? ellie : [ sighs ] okay . i did . but you really should n't make assumptions , you know . it 's rude . franco : only ... ellie : only what ? franco : well , might have been rude , but i was right . come on . you can tell me all about it . what 'd you do that was so bad ? ellie : i lied to the man that i love most and completely destroyed our relationship , okay ? and i do n't think he 's ever gon na forgive me . spinelli : i 'm afraid i ca n't shed any light on the intent of maxie 's ramblings . but , you know , maybe we 're not -- we 're not meant to . even when she 's lucid , maxie 's thought process is elliptical at best . trying to look for deeper meaning in her drug - fueled haze might just be a cause of grief and frustration . lulu : still ... high on medication , there just has to be a reason why she would say that my baby is hers -- and yours . do you think that this could be because of you ? spinelli : i do n't -- i do n't follow . lulu : maybe maxie has got some residual feelings for you . maybe she still cares about you . spinelli : i - i doubt that 's the case . maxie and i have been over for so long . there 's aquariums of water under that bridge . yeah . i do n't see us getting back together . lulu : well , of course not . you 're with ellie . spinelli : [ scoffs ] lulu : oh , i 'm sorry . are you still fighting ? spinelli : uh , no , no . we 're not fighting . we 're over . franco : your lie was really that bad ? ellie : i told myself i was equivocating for the most noble of purposes -- to protect someone , but that justification just rings hollow now . i hid something from damian that he had the right to know . and not just that , by keeping this information secret , i may have just ruined six lives . franco : six ? ellie : yes . franco : wow , you 're efficient . ellie : it 's not funny . franco : no , it 's not . a lie like that is really serious . a lie that hurt so many people , i think it requires something equally serious . ellie : it -- it sounds like you have some advice for me . franco : yeah , i do . you want my advice ? ellie : yeah , i mean , at this point , i 'm willing to entertain any ideas . i am dying to make it up to damian . franco : it 's an interesting choice of words , 'cause as i see it , you only have one choice . you should jump . michael : connie wrote aj 's name in her own blood ? there 's no mistake ? dante : i saw it with my own eyes . and now i need to see aj i know your impulse is gon na be to protect him , but that would be a mistake . michael : the kind of mistake you made with dad ? dante : the kind of mistake i made and regret . but , michael , i hate that this is happening to you , that you 're here right now . i wish to god you were n't , but you are , and you need to cooperate . connie is dead . i need to see aj michael : he 's -- he 's passed out in the den . dante : thank you . michael : he 's not gon na be much of a help to you , though . dante : why is that ? michael : he was drinking , okay ? i 'm trying to sober him up right now . dante : i still need to talk to him . michael : wait , uh , does dad know that connie 's dead ? dante : yeah , michael , he -- he made the 911 call . i 'm pretty sure he found her . michael : dad found connie dead ? dante : yeah , i have n't heard the tape , but everyone says it sounded like his voice on the other end of the line . he was n't at the scene by the time i got there . michael : if dad saw what you saw , aj 's name , he 's gon na come straight here . alexis : we 're gon na have to stand over here . olivia : connie was trying to tell us something ! she 's trying to say that aj did this . alexis : look , that 's a possibility . let 's not get ahead of ourselves . we do n't know anything yet . olivia : i know everything i need to know . aj had a massive hate - on for connie ever since she ran that story about kiki and elq . aj did this . aj did this , and connie is trying to tell us . alexis : sonny called 911 , so he must have seen it . olivia : that 's where he went . sonny went after aj alexis : so did dante , so do n't panic , all right ? he 's not gon na let sonny hurt aj aj : damn it , sonny ! listen to me ! sonny : there 's only one thing i want you to tell me . aj : what the hell do you want from me ? ! sonny : admit it ! aj : what do you want ? ! sonny : confess what you did to connie ! aj : i do n't know what you want to hear from me , sonny ! ah ! ah ! sonny : i do n't want to hear anything , then ! you ca n't come clean ? ! i figured ! i 'm tired of playing these games right now . you know what ? it 's time . get your head down . get your head down ! aj : no , please . sonny : come on , you bitch ! michael : dad , dad , stop ! ellie : you want me to kill myself ? franco : i do n't `` want `` anything . i do n't care what you do . i 'm just telling you how you can get forgiveness for your transgression . ellie : and what good is getting forgiveness if i 'm not even around to enjoy it ? franco : i do n't think you understand the impact that a lie has on the lied - tos -- the lie - ee ? do you say that ? it does n't matter . look , here 's the thing . if your lie was as big and as devastating as you say , then you 're never gon na be able to repair this relationship . trust me . i know that . ellie : oh , really ? and what makes you an expert ? franco : for 21 years , i was kept from my child . and then it turns out that her mother was lying to me . she 's not my child . i do n't even have a child . and for 21 years , i longed for something , for someone . i imagined what it would be like to be with her , and that 's gone . and now i want -- i want restitution . ellie : you want restitution ? like what ? what ? do you want your ex to jump off a building , too ? franco : no , death would be too good for ava jerome . ellie : oh , but it 's okay for me . look , i do n't know much about your situation -- franco : i do n't know anything about it , either . i do n't know why ava lied to me . i do n't know why she tried to convince me that she was pregnant . could n't have been for child support . she never asked me for a dime . it was n't to try and keep a hold over me . she got rid of me first chance she got . the only thing i know for sure is that ava was only thinking about ava . she did n't care that she screwed me over in the process . does n't care that she screwed kiki over in the process . ellie : okay , well , i suspect that there may be another side to the story , one that is perhaps more forgiving to the person who lied to you . franco : you 've never met ava jerome . ellie : no , you 're right . i have n't . but i really do n't understand how you 're drawing a parallel between her actions and mine . franco : [ chuckling ] really ? ellie : yeah , really . franco : you do n't see it ? ellie : no . franco : she 's a liar . you 're a liar . ellie : oh , no , no , no , no . i 'm not a liar . i made one mistake . and yes , it was horrible and completely destructive , but it 's not worth giving up on damian , and it 's certainly not worth killing myself over ! franco : well , i guess you just have no flair for the dramatic . ellie : i do n't need to become a martyr to get redemption . is that what you 're thinking about ? i thought you were on some big forgiveness tour . have n't you wrought havoc on scores of people ? i mean , according to your logic , you should have committed seppuku like 10 times over . franco : it 's really messy . there are other ways . ellie : but instead you are set on proving yourself worthy of a second chance , are n't you ? franco : well , yeah . ellie : yeah , well , so am i. damian is the best thing that has ever happened to me . and if i just surrender now and -- and slink off into the night , then i 'm doing as great a dishonor on our love as i am on my lie . franco : what i said before about you having no flair for the dramatic , i was wrong . you 're pretty good at it . ellie : you are free to mope around about all the wrong that has been done to you , completely forgetting about all the wrong that you 've done to others . but not me . i will fix my life .

[ scene_break ] franco : it 's not that i do n't trust you . nina : sure you do n't . franco : it 's just that i can not allow you to be an accessory after the fact . if i tell you what i 'm planning and you make no effort to stop me , then you could get yourself in a lot of trouble . nina : is it that bad ? franco : [ sighs ] i 've been lied to . i 've been cheated on . someone made a fool out of me . you tell me -- what would nina do ? nina : something magnificent . franco : carly 's punishment will be commensurate with her crime . nina : okay . i 'll back off . franco : do that . nina : then we 'll talk later , and ... we can compare notes . franco : compare notes ? nina : because , um , you 're not the only one with , um , a nasty surprise in store for tomorrow .

[ scene_break ] kiki : rosalie has n't said anything yet . ava : that 's comforting . kiki : according to morgan , she has no intention of opening her big , fat mouth . but why would she ? it 's not like she works for nina anymore . ava : true . kiki : and it does n't hurt that you put the fear of god in her . so unless she runs into someone more intimidating than you , we should be good to go . [ scene_break ] rosalie : i do n't want any trouble , mrs. reeves . madeline : tell me ava jerome 's location and you wo n't have any . rosalie : look , i 'm not comfortable with that . okay , your daughter is unstable . she wants to steal ava 's baby . why would you help her with that ? madeline : my motives are irrelevant . yours are n't . nina told me your ... foul little secret -- the one you 've been trying so hard to hide . would n't it be a shame if that came to light ? rosalie : like mother , like daughter . madeline : think of the lifelong ramifications . you can either be nina 's friend or nina 's enemy . which will it be ? [ scene_break ] nina : some would say that , uh , my plan is drastic , but it 's appropriate . my plan is appropriate . it 's , um -- you said , that the punishment is comm -- franco : commensurate . nina : ... commensurate with the crime , and i agree . franco : anything less and we would be allowing ourselves to be considered inconsequential . nina : doormats . franco : people walking all over us . nina : no . no one walks all over me . franco : you and i , nina , we have a lot in common , then , do n't we ? nina : yeah . i mean , how else can we just stand here and , um , admit the sins we 're about to commit to each other ? are we monsters ? franco : we give people our love , and then they take it and they -- they just chew it and spit it right back out . nina : i 'm surrounded by those people . franco : but not here , right ? you 're here with a friend . nina : here , we 're safe .

[ chuckles ] see , that 's exactly what jason would say . except about franco . he would never say that about franco . and he almost always was right . hell , he was always right . but the straightforward , common sense -- that does n't apply in this case , you know ? it just does n't . jason : why not ? carly : because ! because marrying or not marrying franco -- the fallout does n't just land on me . it 's does n't . it -- it has to do with my family , my son michael , and , hell , let 's not forget sonny . [ scene_break ] connie : you love carly . you always have , and when franco 's gone , you hope to help her pick up the pieces and start a new life together . sonny : i do n't feel right discussing this with you . connie : [ chuckles ] hey , sonny . i know you loved me as much as your heart could allow you to love . but i 'm gone . i 'm not here anymore . i ca n't make you happy . carly can . what do you say we put these demons to rest , huh ? i want you to be honest with me right now , and yourself . what do you want ? and what are you willing to do to get it ? sonny : um ... i - i love carly . i just ca n't , you know -- i ca n't help myself . i 'm not gon na -- i 'm not gon na stop till i get her .

[ scene_break ] ava : where would michael get the idea that i killed aj ? kiki : sabrina santiago . carlos told her that he did n't do it and that you pressured him into taking the rap . ava : i had nothing to do with aj 's death . just the idea of that -- it 's completely preposterous . i knew something was up with her when i saw her at the hospital . kiki : what do you mean ? ava : she was odd , strangely intense , downright cruel when i was having those cramps , suggested that i might be miscarrying when i was terrified . kiki : she had just lost her baby , and according to carlos ' story , she thought that you were behind it . ava : i did not cause that crash . i would never target a pregnant woman for any reason . kiki : but did you threaten to ? ava : they were just words , kiki . kiki : mom ! ava : i did n't plan to go through with it . kiki : but carlos thought that you would . ava : it was the only way i could get him to cooperate . my back was against the wall , kiki . he had to confess . sonny , he -- he 's the one . he wanted me to get it done . i was afraid of what he would do if i could n't . look what he 's doing now . kiki : all the more reason to take pity on sabrina . imagine is someone threatened to take your baby away from you .

[ scene_break ] franco : it 's not that i do n't trust you . nina : sure you do n't . franco : it 's just that i can not allow you to be an accessory after the fact . if i tell you what i 'm planning and you make no effort to stop me , then you could get yourself in a lot of trouble . nina : is it that bad ? franco : [ sighs ] i 've been lied to . i 've been cheated on . someone made a fool out of me . you tell me -- what would nina do ? nina : something magnificent . franco : carly 's punishment will be commensurate with her crime . nina : okay . i 'll back off . franco : do that . nina : then we 'll talk later , and ... we can compare notes . franco : compare notes ? nina : because , um , you 're not the only one with , um , a nasty surprise in store for tomorrow . [ scene_break ] ava : you wo n't tell michael where i am , will you ? you know it 'll get back to sonny . and you know what will happen after that . kiki : that 's exactly why i 'm keeping it quiet . as much as i hate lying to michael , he ca n't -- he ca n't know . ava : i do know how lucky i am to have you and morgan and now silas in my corner . you 've all gone above and beyond . i just hope i can trust rosalie will do the same . [ scene_break ] michael : what do you need to tell me ? rosalie : okay , well , first of all , i just -- madeline : rosalie ? i 'm madeline reeves , nina 's mother . we need to chat . michael : i 'm sorry . hey . uh , we 're in the middle of a conversation here . madeline : just a cup of coffee , please . thank you . michael : i do n't -- i do n't work here . uh , i was -- i was chatting with rosalie here . madeline : i 'm sorry , but it 's very important that we speak . my daughter has been all at sea since you left her employ . she 's desperate . she 'll do anything to get you back , and we both know when nina says `` anything , `` she means anything . rosalie : um , i 'm so sorry . do you think we could talk later ? michael : are you sure ? it sounded important . rosalie : oh , yeah . yeah , it was -- it was nothing . [ chuckles ] michael : okay . [ sighs ] uh , well , if you run into any information about ava 's whereabouts , can you please -- rosalie : i will give you a call . michael : yeah , okay . thank you . rosalie : definitely . madeline : what a coincidence . i 'm looking for ava , too . but unlike that boy , i 'm aware that you know where she is . also unlike that boy , i intend to leave here satisfied . [ scene_break ] kiki : rosalie has n't said anything yet . ava : that 's comforting . kiki : according to morgan , she has no intention of opening her big , fat mouth . but why would she ? it 's not like she works for nina anymore . ava : true . kiki : and it does n't hurt that you put the fear of god in her . so unless she runs into someone more intimidating than you , we should be good to go . [ scene_break ] rosalie : i do n't want any trouble , mrs. reeves . madeline : tell me ava jerome 's location and you wo n't have any . rosalie : look , i 'm not comfortable with that . okay , your daughter is unstable . she wants to steal ava 's baby . why would you help her with that ? madeline : my motives are irrelevant . yours are n't . nina told me your ... foul little secret -- the one you 've been trying so hard to hide . would n't it be a shame if that came to light ? rosalie : like mother , like daughter . madeline : think of the lifelong ramifications . you can either be nina 's friend or nina 's enemy . which will it be ? [ scene_break ] nina : some would say that , uh , my plan is drastic , but it 's appropriate . my plan is appropriate . it 's , um -- you said , that the punishment is comm -- franco : commensurate . nina : ... commensurate with the crime , and i agree . franco : anything less and we would be allowing ourselves to be considered inconsequential . nina : doormats . franco : people walking all over us . nina : no . no one walks all over me . franco : you and i , nina , we have a lot in common , then , do n't we ? nina : yeah . i mean , how else can we just stand here and , um , admit the sins we 're about to commit to each other ? are we monsters ? franco : we give people our love , and then they take it and they -- they just chew it and spit it right back out . nina : i 'm surrounded by those people . franco : but not here , right ? you 're here with a friend . nina : here , we 're safe . [ scene_break ] carly : okay . if i love him , marry him , and if i do n't , then do n't . [ chuckles ] see , that 's exactly what jason would say . except about franco . he would never say that about franco . and he almost always was right . hell , he was always right . but the straightforward , common sense -- that does n't apply in this case , you know ? it just does n't . jason : why not ? carly : because ! because marrying or not marrying franco -- the fallout does n't just land on me . it 's does n't . it -- it has to do with my family , my son michael , and , hell , let 's not forget sonny . [ scene_break ] connie : you love carly . you always have , and when franco 's gone , you hope to help her pick up the pieces and start a new life together . sonny : i do n't feel right discussing this with you . connie : [ chuckles ] hey , sonny . i know you loved me as much as your heart could allow you to love . but i 'm gone . i 'm not here anymore . i ca n't make you happy . carly can . what do you say we put these demons to rest , huh ? i want you to be honest with me right now , and yourself . what do you want ? and what are you willing to do to get it ? sonny : um ... i - i love carly . i just ca n't , you know -- i ca n't help myself . i 'm not gon na -- i 'm not gon na stop till i get her . [ scene_break ] jason : sonny ? carly : corinthos . my ex - husband . jason : and i imagine he is one of the many who disapprove of your fiancé . carly : he is leading the charge . but it 's so much more complicated than that . [ sighs ] jason : okay . carly : okay ? do n't you want to know why it 's so complicated ? jason : not unless you want to tell me . carly : i had an affair with sonny . jason : while you were with franco . carly : yeah . and it lasted a few months , but i put a stop to it . i did . and it 's never gon na happen again , so ... does that answer your question ? jason : i never asked a question . carly : you did n't , did you ? i 'm sorry . i 'm sorry . here i am going on and on about my mess of a life , and i do n't even know you . you 're a complete stranger . [ scene_break ] tracy : i have what you want . jerry : excellent . ned : mother , stop and think about this . tracy : i have thought of nothing else for days . ned : then how can you even consider playing ball ? jerry : tick tock , tracy . ned : you are about to give up your only stake in the family company , the thing you have fought for your entire life . tracy : exactly . the family company . without family , elq is nothing . luke is my family . mr. jacks . jerry : i 'm here . bored senseless , but i 'm here . ned : do not do this without a guarantee , please . lulu : ned 's right . look , as much as i want my father to come back , you can not take jerry jacks at his word . jerry : you have no choice . now , time 's up , tracy . so do we have a deal or no deal ? [ scene_break ] franco : all right . hey , um ... nina ... would you come to my wedding ? nina : [ laughs ] am i invited to your wedding ? oh , you know ? i would really love to come and see everything unfold , but i -- my life is about to get really hectic , so , um , thank you ... franco : okay . right . so , you know , when your life is n't so hectic , do n't be a stranger . nina : okay . yeah . franco : and good luck , right , with ... nina : yeah . franco : 'cause -- okay , it 's pretty cool , right , if you think about it ? nina : it 's great . franco : i know . by this time tomorrow , maybe -- maybe both of us will have ... cut dual swaths of destruction right through port charles . nina : yes ! exactly ! boo - yah ! boo ! yah ! up in there . [ laughs ] franco : boo - yah . madeline : mm . you 're still here . franco : still here . you have a hell of a daughter . madeline : i do n't like him . [ scene_break ] carly : oh , god . can you please forget that this conversation ever happened , please ? jason : [ chuckles ] sure . with my track record , that 's a real possibility . carly : no , seriously , i mean , why would i tell you all my private business ? i mean , i 've never even met you . jason : maybe because you do n't want it to stay private . keeping things bottled up is hard , even if you 're good at it . carly : you have to promise me . you can not say a word to anyone about this . jason : [ laughing ] i promise . besides , who would i tell ? i do n't even know anyone . carly : well , you know elizabeth , okay ? and -- and given how she feels about franco , she may feel like she 's saving me from myself and tell somebody . jason : i 'm not gon na say anything to elizabeth , okay ? carly : you promise ? jason : i promise . you have my word . carly : i do n't know why i trust you , but i do . jason : what happens between you and your ex - husband -- that 's your business . franco : mine , too . [ scene_break ] nina : why were n't you nice to franco ? madeline : i told you -- i do n't like him . you 'd be wise to steer clear of him . nina : well , you know , you 'd be wise to ... chill out ! you did n't like silas , and look how that turned out for me . madeline : just my opinion . nina : well , thank you . wait . did you find rosalie ? madeline : i did . and i know exactly where ava is . [ scene_break ] ava : now that you mention it ... [ knock on door ] ava : i think there is a way i can cement my hold over rosalie . kiki : mom , mom , okay , just -- you need to get out of sight . ava : yeah . okay . [ scene_break ] connie : i want this for you . do you hear me ? that 's how much you mean to me , but if you move forward with this plan , it could cost you everything . sonny : only if michael finds out what i did to aj . connie : well , i just hope for your sake and for michael 's that he never finds out . sonny : he wo n't , as long as i get rid of ava and franco . michael : dad ? what are you doing here ?

( today is the 12,000th episode ! new credits ! ) [ door opens ] maxie : i talked to robin . she said you 're recovering well , so i wo n't be putting your life at risk . dante : and how would you be doing that ? maxie : when i force you to tell me the truth about lulu . do you really love her , or are you just a player like your dad ? [ scene_break ] luke : look , nobody likes dull day - to - day routines , least of all people like you and me . we 're wired for change and for excitement . we like to live on the edge . we like to court a little danger . i understand that . but i also know that the other side of that is not so great . impulsive , risky behavior such as sticking yourself in the middle of a mob shootout . ethan : hey , i enjoy a little risk , okay ? it does n't mean i have a death wish . luke : you 're a spencer , my son . that means the sound of live ammunition gets your heart a - pumpin ' . lulu : what 's up ? tracy called and said you wanted to talk to me . tracy : i , uh , called lulu on your behalf 'cause i knew you wanted to say a few things to her about her boyfriend . [ scene_break ] [ olivia sighs ] olivia : oh , whoa , whoa , whoa , whoa , where do you think you 're going ? johnny : i have something for you , so shut your eyes . olivia : what ... you 're just full of surprises tonight . johnny : it is a surprise , so shut 'em . go on . [ olivia laughs ] johnny : there you go . okay . open them up . olivia : oh , my god , john . that 's beautiful . what is that for ? johnny : it 's a beautiful necklace for a beautiful lady . here , come on , let me put it on you , all right ? olivia : oh ... okay , wait , wait . johnny : what ? olivia : where did you get this ? [ scene_break ] jason : it was one of our shipments that got hijacked tonight . could be a lot of people responsible . lucky : i 'm sure you 'll figure out who it is and handle the situation . unless , of course , i get there first . [ scene_break ] lucky : the way i see it , whoever hijacked your shipment is a problem for both of us . any hostile overtures from any business associates you want to tell me about ? jason : uh , i do n't know . i mean , things have been pretty quiet . lucky : look , i know it 's a radical concept for you to work with the police on anything , but i think we can help each other . jason : no , i 'm actually being serious . i mean , if you 're talking about any competitors who are testing us or preparing to make a move , i mean , there 's always a possibility . i mean , i ... wait , there 's one person who might know something . lucky : who ? jason : it 's your brother ethan . max and milo saw ethan on the pier , had a brief exchange with him right about the time the shooter got away . i mean , that could be a coincidence . maybe not . [ scene_break ] johnny : okay , first things first . let 's see how this thing looks on you , huh ? olivia : okay , wait , wait -- johnny : i 'm sure it 'll look great with that outfit that you 're not wearing . olivia : fine . first ... johnny : what ? olivia : why do n't you answer my question ? how could you possibly afford this ? johnny : i 'm a zacchara . money 's never been an issue for me . you know that . olivia : right , right . but i was under the impression that , uh , you cut yourself off from your family . i 'm not sure how comfortable i feel running around in a necklace that was bought with zacchara crime money . johnny : okay , look , most of everything i have is the result of one zacchara crime or another , and i ca n't think of a better way than to spend it on the woman that i love . so , come on . just try it on . i 'm sure it 'll look beautiful right ... here . olivia : mmm ... well , if you put it that way . johnny : uh - huh . olivia : mmm ... [ scene_break ] tracy : i -- i want you to know that i did wait to initiate this conversation till i knew that dante was gon na recover . luke : that 's because you have a big mushy heart , sweetheart . tracy : i would n't expect you to leave the side of an injured man that ... claims to love you . lulu : dante loves me . tracy : okay , well , this is where you could , um , explain to your daughter about the many women sonny claimed to love . luke : i did n't sign up for this relationship counseling . this is your gig . tracy : fine . sonny corinthos has a long history of making heartfelt declarations of love that do n't amount to anything . lulu : dante 's not sonny . tracy : i know that sonny did not raise dante , but your father did n't raise ethan . and look how alike they are . [ scene_break ] dante : did n't we cover this already ? i mean , you rode me pretty hard about my intentions for lulu right after i got shot . maxie : yeah , but then jason showed up and we did n't get to finish our conversation . now it 's just the two of us . start talking . dante : okay , so what is it you want to hear ? it 's pretty simple . i love lulu . maxie : it rolls off your tongue pretty easy , does n't it ? dante : yeah , it does , 'cause it 's the truth . maxie : okay . how many other women have you told the truth to ? how many serious relationships have you been in ? how many times have you cheated ? dante : wow . you know what ? i 'll save those answers for lulu when she asks me . maxie : no , lulu is way too into you to ask the tough questions . that 's what i 'm here for , to get the real story . and i wo n't be falling for those puppy dog eyes or your cheesy lines . i just want the truth . dante : why are you so convinced that i 'm even lying ? maxie : because you 're really good at it . you have this really good talent of making lulu feel like she 's your one and only . and i 'm wondering if that 's in your blood , just like your dad . dante : do n't ever compare me to sonny . okay ? dante : i have nothing to do with sonny . let 's be clear on that fact . i 'm an accident of genetics being his son . it 's nothing more than that . maxie : defensive much ? i was just asking a question . dante : okay . look , i know you 're just trying to be a good friend and you 're trying to protect lulu , so go ahead and ask me questions about my actions and what i plan to do with lulu . do n't think that i 'm gon na be like sonny , because i 'm not . that 's not gon na happen . i despise the guy and everything he stands for . he 's an egotistical jerk , especially the way he treats women . if anything , he 's given me a road map for my entire life of how not to behave . maxie : hmm . dante : what , you want more ? maxie : no , no , no , that all sounds good , very convincing . and i 'm sure you mean it . but the thing is , i have serious mom issues . and even though i try really hard to fight it or deny it , i 'm still a lot like her . just like you could be a lot like sonny . whether you want to be or not . [ scene_break ] lulu : okay , i appreciate your concern and i can see that your heart 's in the right place , but i promise you this is not necessary because dante and sonny are nothing alike . tracy : famous last words . i have absolutely no doubt that dante has the same destructive tendencies as sonny . it 's in the dna . would you feel free to jump in here anytime ? luke : all right , i 'm gon na jump in . lulu knows her own heart . she knows her own mind . and she 's right , dante is not sonny . lulu : thank you . luke : you 're welcome . however , you know i have an issue with dante . it 's not his family tree ; it 's that he 's a cop . [ scene_break ] [ telephone rings ] alexis : i got it . hello ? oh , hi , kiefer . how are you ? yeah , she 's right here . she 's not here , actually . no , she was doing homework and she must have taken a break . can i take a message ? okay . i 'll have her call you . you want to tell me what 's going on ? you guys have a fight ? kristina : no , we 're fine . i just do n't want to talk to him right now . i 'm kind of in the middle of something . alexis : oh . okay . so , no pressure , but you know that you can talk to me about anything , right ? kristina : relax , mom . everything 's cool . i 'm just busy , okay ? alexis : okay . [ knock on door ] [ door opens ] diane : hi . alexis : hi . diane : i am here to vent about a certain stubborn client of mine who insists on sending himself to prison for the rest of his life . hi , kristina . kristina : it 's okay . i know you 're talking about my dad . i 'll be in my room . oh , and by the way , i hope you lose this time . my dad deserves to rot in prison . diane : bad time ? alexis : she 's mad at her father , and i do n't blame her . actually , i think there 's something else going on with her , too , but i think i 'm gon na have to wait for her to be ready to talk about it . sit . diane : oh , the mysteries of the teenage mind . makes one glad not to be a parent . alexis : well , thanks a lot . diane : well ... alexis : what 's going on with sonny now ? diane : he is intent . he 's intent on spending the rest of his life in prison . that is , unless you step up . [ scene_break ] olivia : you know what ? johnny : hmm ? olivia : i 've really missed this . johnny : yeah , me , too . olivia : us being together . you know , like we used to be . it 's ... it almost feels like things are normal again . at least for a couple of hours . johnny : yeah , i agree with you . we 're good at this . i mean , we 're good at a lot of things , but ... [ both laugh ] johnny : laying low is definitely one of our specialties . olivia : how about we make a pact ? johnny : what 's that ? olivia : we make a pact not to ever lose track of this . right , what 's good . what we have . let 's not ever let anything mess that up , okay ? johnny : count me in . you know , it 's nice seeing you like this . happy and relaxed for once , like when we first met . olivia : yeah . i 've just been so stressed . johnny : i know . olivia : and so worried about dante for so long . it 's like i forgot what it was just to be us or just to be me . i 'm not saying that everything 's all right or perfect by any stretch . i mean , my kid is still in a world of hurt . and he blames me . it 's gon na take a long time to fix that . but ... it 's like the first time in my life that i 'm out from under all the secrets and the lies . and i got ta say , it feels pretty damn good . johnny : here 's to us being happy again , huh ? olivia : and whatever 's next . [ scene_break ] spinelli : the jackal would like to offer his humble assistance in your preparation for mr. sir 's upcoming trial . i 've obtained all the evidence the prosecution will use to attempt to prove his guilt . so i figured if we worked together , perhaps we could prepare you for any curveballs that might be thrown your way . sam : okay . that 's probably a good idea . it might be smart to be ready for anything . spinelli : okay , well , the prosecution will undoubtedly try to poke holes in the official statements given by you and the valkyrie . and i do feel i should point out that if mr. sir does decide to make the ultimate sacrifice for michael and claim responsibility for claudia 's murder , then if you lie to support his story , you 'll be committing perjury . sam : ca n't wait . jason : spinelli , get on your -- okay , you 're on your computer . one of our shipments was hijacked from pier 52 . i need the security footage in that area right now as soon as you can , please . sam : was anyone hurt ? jason : no , everything 's okay . shipment 's gone . whoever did it got away . and i have one possible lead , and i really hope that i 'm wrong about it . [ scene_break ] alexis : for the 12,000th time , i am not joining your law firm . and here 's why . because at this stage of my life , i do n't want to represent the worst criminals in the tri - state area . i 'd like to believe i have this much of a decent reputation left . diane : criminals are not my only clients , you know . alexis : oh . diane : oh , by the way , kate gave me these cartullos . are n't they fabulous ? alexis : fabulous . diane : it 's just her little way of saying thank you for putting the legal smackdown on a greedy hollywood diva and her agent who chose to mess with `` crimson . `` alexis : ah , big deal . i 'm sure when i take her next case , i 'll get something even nicer and more expensive . diane : actually , that wo n't be happening because kate and `` crimson `` have become the exclusive clients of my law firm . alexis : i know you are , but what am i ? [ diane laughs ] diane : okay . alexis : my decision is final . diane : fine . your loss . and probably sonny 's . alexis : look , i will be available to give you advice on how to approach this case anytime you call . diane : there is no case . there 's not going to be any kind of a defense unless sonny keeps his mouth shut and lets me handle it . alexis : what do you mean ? diane : the prosecution 's case against sonny is circumstantial , but he seems hell - bent on admitting that he killed claudia , leaving me with the nearly impossible task of proving that his actions were justifiable . and so far , i have been unable to change his mind . alexis : what do you want me to do ? diane : it 's very simple , alexis . as an experienced attorney , but more importantly , as the mother of sonny 's daughter -- alexis : oh . diane : uh - huh . you are in the best position to convince sonny just what a horrible mistake he would be making . alexis , i can not win this case unless sonny sticks to his original statement and claims he had nothing to do with claudia 's death .

[ diane laughs ] diane : okay . alexis : my decision is final . diane : fine . your loss . and probably sonny 's . alexis : look , i will be available to give you advice on how to approach this case anytime you call . diane : there is no case . there 's not going to be any kind of a defense unless sonny keeps his mouth shut and lets me handle it . alexis : what do you mean ? diane : the prosecution 's case against sonny is circumstantial , but he seems hell - bent on admitting that he killed claudia , leaving me with the nearly impossible task of proving that his actions were justifiable . and so far , i have been unable to change his mind . alexis : what do you want me to do ? diane : it 's very simple , alexis . as an experienced attorney , but more importantly , as the mother of sonny 's daughter -- alexis : oh . diane : uh - huh . you are in the best position to convince sonny just what a horrible mistake he would be making . alexis , i can not win this case unless sonny sticks to his original statement and claims he had nothing to do with claudia 's death . [ scene_break ] dante : i 'm sorry you had a bad relationship with your mother . i 'm just not a believer that everything 's determined by genetics . i think people are in charge of their own actions , regardless of who your parents are . maxie : okay , but you ca n't deny that people inherit other things from their parents , like blue eyes , allergies , bald spots . it 's not too far - fetched to think personality traits are on that list . dante : okay , i just believe people make their own decisions about how they treat people . okay , i grew up believing a lie , that my mother did n't know who my father was because there was all these guys she was with that used her and dumped her . i mean , i grew up not knowing who my father was . maxie : and now you know that it 's sonny . dante : right . she lied about that , but what she did n't lie about was how she was treated . and i took some lessons from that . maxie : such as ? dante : well , you do n't tell a woman what you think she wants to hear just so you can rope her in and then walk away when you 've gotten what you wanted . you do n't make promises you have no intention of keeping . and you do n't tell someone you love them if you do n't really mean it . maxie : well , if you 're for real , i can see why lulu likes you . but if you 're lying and you 're just stringing her along , i 'll make sure that you end up miserable and alone . [ door closes ] [ scene_break ] lulu : i ca n't control what dante does for a living . yes , he 's a cop . and i know that 's not high on your list of approved professions , but i 'm with him because of the way he treats me and the way he makes me feel . and i know that he loves me as much as i love him . luke : okay , i hope that 's true . i really do . i hope he 's not just stringing you along . but that 's for you to figure out , not me . and as far as sonny goes , i happen to know that he loved many of the women he was with , with a few possible exceptions . tracy : sonny only cares about himself . and what if dante is just like him ? ethan is scarily like you . ethan : i would really appreciate being left out of this conversation . thank you very much . lulu : you 're wrong about dante . and i really do n't think it 's fair for you to project all of sonny 's bad qualities onto him , because they 're very different people . and dante still plans on putting sonny in prison , by the way . tracy : why did he lie about sonny shooting him ? lulu : you know what i think ? i think this is actually pointless because you 've obviously made up your mind about dante , which is ridiculous . i would like you to give him a chance , but tell you the truth , i really do n't care either way . tracy : would you talk some sense into her , please ? luke : my daughter 's love life is her business . period . lulu : thank you . and i appreciate your concern , no matter how annoying it may be , but now that i 've heard you , i think it might be best if you just tried to stay out of it . okay ? lucky : hi . lulu : really ? um , if you 're here to join the chorus to tell me how i should stay away from dante , you 're too late . lucky : believe me , i 'm not qualified to give anyone relationship advice at this point . i wish you the best . i actually like dante . lulu : good answer . thank you . bye . ethan : i swear to you , i had nothing to do with this . and who lulu dates is none of my concern . lucky : what about the hijacked corinthos shipment on pier 52 , you know anything about that ? [ scene_break ] spinelli : all signs indicate that it was indeed the mob prince who hijacked the shipment . sam : yeah . what was johnny thinking ? spinelli : well , between the footage i 've now obtained of his car leaving the scene and the shell casing that stone cold found matching the caliber of johnny 's weapon of choice , it seems pretty apparent he was looking to be caught . it was an act of defiance on his part . an opening salvo , as it were . sam : i just feel bad for jason because he actually likes johnny . he respected him . and i think he 's given him quite a few breaks already . spinelli : yes , very true . it 's not often , perhaps i should say never , that someone can just walk away from the corinthos organization after silently scheming to end mr. sir 's reign . sam : yeah . but jason kind of felt like he owed johnny . but you 're right . spinelli : stone cold is in a difficult position . i mean , disloyalty can not be tolerated . but i do feel sympathy for the mob prince . it was not so long ago that he put himself directly in the line of fire to save my life . sam : yeah . i just do n't understand what the sudden turn around is , and why would johnny want to go after jason and sonny ? spinelli : i think the mob prince has been spiraling out of control since the death of his sister , and it 's now pretty clear that he 's chosen the most dangerous path of seeking retribution . sam : yeah , it 's sad . and not very smart unless johnny has a death wish . spinelli : i think his vision is tainted by thoughts of revenge . but i fear that this activity will result in the direst of consequences . [ scene_break ] olivia : you know , honey , i do n't think i 've ever had anything quite this fancy before . johnny : it 's not too flashy , is it ? olivia : no . no , it 's beautiful . it 's beautiful . i feel like the queen of england or something . johnny : well , you 're my queen . you know , maybe i should hire you some servants or something . or i could be your servant . shall i draw you a bath , madame falconeri ? olivia : that sounds very tempting . of course , i have a feeling that you 're just trying to get me out of this blanket . johnny : maybe . but keep the necklace on , huh ?

[ knock on door ] [ johnny sighs ] [ olivia sighs ] jason : hey , i need to talk to ... not answering your phone , you were n't at the garage , so i figured i might find you here . olivia : well , jason , he does n't work for you anymore , so he does n't have to tell you where he goes . johnny : it 's okay . what do you want ? jason : you left this when you hijacked our shipment tonight . olivia : do n't stop on my account . say what you need to say . jason : fine . i know you 're doing this because of what happened to your sister . and i understand that . you want to be reckless , that 's fine by me . as long as it does n't interfere with what i have to do , i 'm gon na leave you alone . johnny : and if it does ? jason : you know i have a job to do . you know i ca n't let you undermine me or sonny . so if i were you , i would just , you know , i would cut my losses , i would focus on what 's good in your life . you stay away from me , i 'll stay away from you , johnny . johnny : jason , you know i respect you . but you got to be loyal to sonny , huh ? the guy 's a lying pig . he wrecked my sister 's life . and his actions can not go unanswered . sonny 's got to pay for what he did . jason : i 'm sorry to hear that . [ scene_break ] spinelli : wow . to what do i owe this spontaneous and impressive demonstration of affection ? maxie : there 's no reason . i just love you . you 're honest and trustworthy . spinelli : i like to think so . [ chuckles ] something seems amiss . maxie : i 'm just -- i 'm worried about lulu . i went to see dante at the hospital . just to make sure that his intentions for her are real because i 'm scared lulu might be getting in too deep with dante . i mean , now that we know he 's sonny 's son , that changes everything . spinelli : how so ? maxie : spinelli , sonny 's like the biggest player in town . think of how many women he 's been through . what if dante is exactly like him and lulu just ends up getting her heart broken ? spinelli : okay , your efforts at being a concerned friend are very noble , but i think this is an instance where the original blonde one has to make her own decisions . maxie : i know that . i 'm just worried about her because i know how difficult it is for lulu to put herself out there like that , you know , to put her heart on the line for anyone because she 's been burned so many times . it 's really nice to know that i do n't have to worry about that . it 's a comforting feeling to know that my heart is safe with you , spinelli . spinelli : i think it 's a matter of finding your soul mate . that 's when everything becomes clear . it was n't until i acknowledged my feelings for maximista that i found clarity and certainty . maxie : i found my certainty , too . you 're the love of my life . i do n't ever want to lose you . [ scene_break ] alexis : you can not allow sonny to perjure himself if he did in fact kill claudia . diane : how did you get your win record being such a stickler for the rules ? alexis : you need to shift your focus from sonny lying to how you 're gon na get him acquitted . have you considered emotional duress ? diane : okay , i plan to argue that sonny found claudia waving a gun at carly and sam and that he acted to protect those two women , including carly 's newborn baby . alexis : see , i think that 's potentially a very bad mistake because the prosecution is then going to call carly as a witness . and you do not want that woman anywhere near the stand . diane : sonny disagrees . he thinks she 'll make a very compelling witness . alexis : well , i disagree with sonny disagreeing because she is not only arrogant , she is unpredictable . and it 's gon na be a problem for your testimony . diane : look , i did not come here to argue legal strategy with you . if you can not or will not convince sonny to deny that he killed claudia , well , then i guess i 'm done here . besides , you 're not a member of my firm , so you do n't really get a say . oh , did i show you this bag ? kate gave me this as well . it matches the shoes . is n't it delicious ? okay , i 'll call you later . [ door closes ] [ scene_break ] ethan : i went to the pier to meet with carlos , 'cause as you know , luke is fresh out of cuban cigars . and when i got there , i heard gunshots . and that 's when i stumbled across two of sonny 's thugs . they were none too happy to see me , so i left . and that 's the end of the story . lucky : end of the story . you both know more than you 're saying , but you 're not gon na talk to the cop , are you ? luke : you know the rules , son . lucky : yes , i do . and i would n't have it any other way . [ scene_break ] lulu : have you ever lied to me ? besides claiming to be a mobster when you really were a cop ? dante : let me guess , you just talked to maxie . lulu : no . why ? was she here ? dante : yeah , she dropped in to question me again about my intentions for you . i guess in her eyes now that i 'm sonny 's son , i 'm nothing but a lying playboy who does n't respect women . so i will be taking what i need from you and breaking your heart , just so you know . lulu : she had no right to say that . dante : look , maxie , she was just trying to be a good friend . it was harmless . i think i set her straight anyway . but if it was n't maxie , who was it ? [ lulu sighs ] lulu : tracy had a few choice words to say about you . no , really actually it was just about sonny . dante : and about how i 'm gon na be just like him , right ? lulu : what she said did not make me doubt you for a second . she just , she went off about sonny and how he treats women . it 's not like she 's wrong . i 've seen what carly 's been through over and over again . something bad happens and then carly claims it 's over , and then sonny works his magic and reels her right back in again . dante : and no matter how much you deny it , deep down you 're afraid i 'm gon na be just like him . dante : it 's okay , you can be honest with me . if you have any doubts about me or you do n't think you can trust me , you can say so . lulu : i 'm relationship challenged . it 's not something that i 've had success with , like , ever . dante : well , there 's a first time for everything . lulu : but i 'm sure you 've noticed with this kind of stuff i 'm like a little gun - shy . dante : what ? no . you ? come on . lulu : i 'm trying to be serious here . dante : okay , i 'm sorry . lulu : it 's just that when people say you 're too good to be true , intellectually i know that they 're wrong because they do n't know you like i know you . but i have this feeling -- i do n't know , this part of me that reminds me that i 've been here before and ... it 's not gon na last because it never has . dante : i know how we 're gon na fix this . lulu : really ? dante : yeah . i 'm gon na take a lie detector test . and you 're gon na give it to me . i 'll teach you all the tell - tale signs they told me when i became a cop , when you 're interviewing your suspect and you 're trying to figure out if he 's lying or not . you can ask me any question you want . lulu : okay . but how do i know that you 're not lying about the tell - tale signs ?

justin : that one -- that `` i 've got katie on my mind `` look . bill : i do have katie on my mind ! she turned down my proposal ! justin : have you bought her anything expensive besides the ring ? bill : katie does n't respond well to that . that just gets her riled up . i 've got to come up with some kind of surprise . justin : [ chortles ] bill : what ? justin : i 'm just trying to think of the last time you surprised me . bill : surprise you ? ! justin : yeah ! bill : why am i gon na surprise your ugly ass ? ! i do n't want to marry you ! justin : well , that 's too bad , 'cause i respond really well to expensive things . bill : [ groans ] justin : [ laughing ] i 'm just messin ' with you , man . come on . do n't give up . keep chipping away . you do want her in your life , right ? bill : yes . justin : okay . bill : i want a real commitment -- for us , for will . look , i - i - i do n't blame katie for being guarded . but i 've changed . and she 's got to see that , right ? katie : brooke , please do n't look at me like that . brooke : you 're basically asking shauna to seduce bill . katie : that 's because bill says he wants to be my husband again and he wants to do it right this time , and i want to believe him , but i have to be sure . shauna : it 's kind of romantic , what you 're asking . katie : i always thought that if , for some reason , bill decided to propose for a third time and i was even remotely considering it , i would have to have my head examined , but , really , it 's bill 's head that needs to be examined to see if it swivels every time an attractive woman walks in the room . brooke : look , if your trust issues run so deep with bill , maybe you should reconsider marrying him . you know , playing games on someone you love seems more bill 's style , not yours . katie : well , then he ca n't fault me for it , can he ? i need to know that he 's committed to me and not just trying to get what he wants at the moment . will you do this for me , shauna ? bill : you know that saying `` the best things in life are free `` ? justin : yeah . bill : yeah , well , that 's true , is n't it ? justin : it sure is , man . bill : the thing you want most in life , you ca n't pay for . like my wife and my family back , for instance . katie : shauna , i saw the way you interacted with bill at il giardino . shauna : i am telling you , it was totally innocent . katie : i know that . i believe you . i 'm trusting you with this because you 're a part of the family now . and you have chemistry with bill . i saw that at the bar . i mean , i would n't be asking you to do this otherwise . brooke : i ca n't believe this . katie : and i ca n't jump in to a marriage where we 're having private detectives follow each other around . bill says that he wants me back , and i believe that we could be happy together again , as a family , as a couple , but only if he wants me and only me . shauna : but with men , even if you encourage them just a little , do n't you think sometimes it comes down to proximity ? katie : so , they 're not expected to have any self - control or to exercise good judgment ? i 'm sorry . if there was another way that i could do this , i would do it , but i can not chase another dream only to have it turn in to a nightmare . brooke : i - i just do n't think it 's a good idea to test bill . i - i do n't have a good feeling about it . shauna : okay . if i can help you put your family back together , i 'm in . katie : i 'm just gon na make sure that bill is alone tonight .

[ chuckles ] shauna : is it awful that i dropped by like this ? bill : not at all . it 's a very , uh , pleasant surprise . how 'd you find me ? shauna : uh , from one of those maps of , uh , celebrity homes . bill : are you kidding me ? shauna : no . bill : i 'm in those damn things again ? i 'm gon na have to have my lawyer fire off a threatening letter . although , at the moment , i 'm not too upset about it . shauna : well , good , because it seemed like we started a conversation the other day that we never got to finish -- you know , about old times , new times ... perhaps times to come . bill : [ chuckles softly ] you said you were partial to french wines . shauna : i even dated a sommelier . bill : mm ! shauna : so i can pronounce 9 out of 10 of them . bill : really ? shauna : yeah . bill : well , i do n't think my french is too bad , but maybe you can give me some pointers . shauna : yeah . french is beautiful . it 's the language of love , right ? cheers . bill : cheers . katie : shauna is already there . brooke : katie , i have to say this before you go . whatever happened between bill and me will never happen again . katie : well , i know you would never do anything . brooke : it wo n't happen between bill and anybody ! katie : well , then he 'll just send shauna on her way . brooke : do n't you think she agreed to do this too quickly ? katie : she would never betray flo 's aunt . brooke : we do n't even know her that well . katie : and you 're saying you think she might want bill for herself ? katie : well , then she 's the perfect candidate , do n't you think ? brooke : [ sighs ] okay . i think shauna is nice enough . she seems very sincere . but however this goes tonight , bill 's gon na know that he was set up . and even if he passes the test , maybe he 'll decide that you 're the one who ca n't be trusted . katie : well , i guess i 'll burn that bridge when i come to it . brooke : [ sighs ] bill : so , the great spencerini -- me -- is trying to turn this $ 20 into a bouquet . so i stuff it in my fist like so . shauna : oh . i remember you having big hands . bill : hmm . and ... voilà ! it 's gone ! that 's pretty good , huh ? shauna : pretty good .

[ sighs ] i guess you just did what you thought needed to be done . dillon : and that 's probably what i was thinking at the time . maxie : and i really hate to admit this , but if i were in your place and i was in love with a guy who was in love with a girl that i knew was cheating on him and i wanted the truth to come out ... yeah , i could see myself doing the same thing . dillon : thank you for understanding . maxie : it was still wrong . dillon : i know . maxie : good . dillon : so , if you did n't come here to read me the riot act , what are you -- maxie : ah ! the fabphilanthropy checks . even though the party was a huge disaster , our fund - raising efforts were a hit . thanks to my brilliant idea , i might add . dillon : well , when you 're right , you 're right . maxie : mm - hmm . so now that the finances are taken care of , all we have to do is find a new location to finish the film . dillon : [ sighs ] maxie , i really appreciate your efforts , but ... there is n't gon na be a film . maxie : what do you mean , `` there 's not gon na be a movie `` ? there has to be . you got shortlisted for that film festival . dillon : i 'm sure it wo n't be the first time an entry has withdrawn . maxie : okay , so withdraw it from this one and enter it in the next one . this has to happen . dillon : i 'm sorry . my heart 's just not in it . maxie : dillon , if this movie does n't get made , nobody 's gon na see me in it , and i 'm probably not gon na get another shot . i hate to be like this , but what about me ?

[ scene_break ] laura : lulu ? lulu : look , rocco , look who 's here . it 's grandma . laura : hi , sweetheart . oh , chandler told me you were here . it 's such a nice surprise . lulu : yeah , it 's good to see you . laura : to what do i owe this visit ? lulu : i was hoping you could watch rocco for a little while . i do n't want to see dante when he comes by for his visit . [ scene_break ] sonny : max ! dante : hey . hey . what is it ? what 's wrong ? are you all right ? sonny : it 's not an emergency . i just dropped the ... dante : oh , yeah . no problem . max is outside . he 's , uh -- sonny : you know what ? just leave it there . i do n't need coffee . i do n't need it . dante : okay . [ exhales slowly ] i heard you , uh , checked yourself out of the , uh , hospital against the doctor 's orders . sonny : i could n't stay another minute on that hospital bed , have something else taken from me . dante : that must 've been rough losing avery like that . sonny : ava pulled a dirty trick . i 'm not surprised . dante : so what are you gon na do about it ? sonny : i 'm gon na get my daughter back . and i would 've gotten her back in the first place if carly had been there . [ scene_break ] carly : hi . jason : hey . carly : so , um ... did you get my message ? jason : no . when did you call ? carly : last night . i called you from michael 's phone . jason : ah . well , i have n't checked my messages yet . elizabeth and the boys , they 're still upstairs . they 're sleeping . carly : i 'm sure , you know , they had a really big day yesterday . jason : yeah , well , we all did . carly : i was n't sure i 'd find you here . jason : well , this is my home -- the one i know . so , uh , what 's up ? what brings you by ? carly : i need you to do something for me . i need you to go to sonny and tell him who you are , jason . jason : you want me to tell sonny that l 'm jason ? okay . yeah . carly : yeah , he -- sonny just lost his daughter , and we do n't know if he 's ever going to walk again . he desperately needs something positive to happen , and finding out you 're still alive is the best news he could get . jason : carly , i do n't know if i can -- carly : it 's not just good for sonny . it 's good for you , too , you know , because you and sonny , you guys were closer than brothers . being around sonny -- it may trigger a memory for you . please . jason : i 've got a lot going on around here . i 've got elizabeth . i 've got the boys . you know what i mean ? i ... carly : okay , so if you ca n't do it for sonny , and you ca n't do it for yourself , can you please do this for me ? i really need this . will you please come through for me ? [ scene_break ] franco : you 're getting a job ? nina : um , yes , i am . franco : why ? nina : `` why ? `` franco : [ chuckles ] why ? nina : well , i overheard you say that you were gon na talk to somebody about getting a job , and i thought , `` oh , that 'd be a kick . i should do that , too . `` franco : yeah , but you do n't need a job . you 're loaded . nina : well , you do n't need a job , either . franco : yes , i do . i am not comfortable being someone who lives off of your money . nina : you 're not someone who lives off of my money . we 're creating a life together . and -- and i want to feel like i 'm contributing to society . okay ? franco : so what 's the job that contributes to society ? [ both chuckle ] nina : fashion editor at crimson . franco : really ? nina : but you think it 's a pipe dream ? franco : uh , no , i think it 's a great idea . nina : no , you 're just saying that . you 're saying that just to be supportive , right ? franco : well , i mean , i am supportive , but , nina , look , i 'm an artist , and what is fashion , right , but wearable art ? and look at this dress you have on . clearly , you know fashion . nina : yeah ? um , you do n't think it 's too much ? do you think it 's too much for this interview ? franco : i think it 's perfect . nina : you know , because my last frame of reference is , um , the movie `` working girl `` so ... [ chuckles ] franco : okay , here 's what i think . i think you 're smart and you 're talented and you 're creative and you 're sexy and elegant . and whoever 's running crimson right now would be an idiot to not hire you . [ scene_break ] alexis : ava won custody ? julian : sure did . she called me late last night . turns out that the jeromes have been getting a lot of good luck lately . alexis : oh , well ... good for her . julian : okay , i know that my sister is n't exactly your favorite person ... alexis : mnh - mnh . but , uh -- and sonny 's not your favorite person . but in this instance , i think avery would be better off with sonny . julian : [ sighs ] well , i guess we 'll just have to agree to disagree , right ? alexis : yeah , it 's just that timing is bad . sonny 's recovering from his gunshot wound , and you know that his family means everything to him . so i ca n't help but feel sorry for him . [ scene_break ] sonny : after i got shot , carly went on and on about , you know , `` we need to pull together as a family , `` and when i need her the most , she disappears . so i guess jake 's wedding was more important than my daughter 's custody hearing . dante : well , that hearing was rescheduled at the last second , and that 's why i was n't there . sonny : no , you do n't have to make excuses for her -- or for you , for that matter . dante : me ? what did i do ? sonny : why did n't you tell me what happened with lulu ? dante : [ scoffs ] sonny : i mean , i had to hear it from your mother , and she 's worried about you . i do n't blame her . i 'm worried about you , too . dante : well , please do n't worry about me , because i think you have enough on your plate , okay ? sonny : you 're my son . so you know what ? if you got a problem , i want to hear it . dante : okay . sonny : okay ? so . [ sighs ] you were all set to tell lulu the truth , keep the , you know , secret hidden . now it 's exposed to the world . dante : i 'd give anything to change what happened . but my focus right now has to be on putting my marriage back together . and you 're gon na get avery back . i 'm gon na get lulu back . [ scene_break ] laura : why would dante be coming here to visit rocco ? lulu : because i left him . laura : what ? lulu : dante slept with valerie . laura : when was this ? lulu : a few months ago . apparently , he 's been lying to me about it ever since . they both have . laura : that 's just awful . lulu : and as if it was n't bad enough , i only found out because dillon had footage of valerie confessing everything , and he played it at the halloween party last night in front of everyone , and i was completely humiliated . laura : oh , oh , sweetheart . oh , i 'm so , so sorry . lulu : [ cries ] laura : oh , what about dante ? what did he say ? did he have any kind of an explanation ? lulu : what kind of an explanation could he have , mom ? laura : i know , i know . i 'm not saying anything that would excuse his behavior , but , you know , as long as i 've known him , he 's been head over heels for you . lulu : i know , he says that he still is , he always was , he always will be , but it did n't stop him from jumping valerie 's bones . ugh ! laura : mm . lulu : how could dante do this ? laura : i do n't know . lulu : why would n't he have talked to me , find out what was going on . instead , he just jumps in bed with the first woman that he saw ? that 's how little i mean to my husband -- that just any warm body would make him feel better . laura : oh , sweetheart , i 'm so sorry . lulu : it 's just that i ca n't -- laura : i just do n't know what to say . lulu : [ crying ] he just threw away our marriage vow . i have gone over it and over it in my mind . it just does n't make any sense . mom , i just do n't understand . why would dante do this to us ? [ scene_break ] maxie : you sabotaged lulu 's marriage in front of a boat full of guests -- and the wait staff . dillon : there were better ways to handle it . maxie : um , yes , let 's see . skywriting would 've been better . a singing telegram -- that would 've been better . and what you did , even though i 'm not thrilled with your method ... [ sighs ] i guess you just did what you thought needed to be done . dillon : and that 's probably what i was thinking at the time . maxie : and i really hate to admit this , but if i were in your place and i was in love with a guy who was in love with a girl that i knew was cheating on him and i wanted the truth to come out ... yeah , i could see myself doing the same thing . dillon : thank you for understanding . maxie : it was still wrong . dillon : i know . maxie : good . dillon : so , if you did n't come here to read me the riot act , what are you -- maxie : ah ! the fabphilanthropy checks . even though the party was a huge disaster , our fund - raising efforts were a hit . thanks to my brilliant idea , i might add . dillon : well , when you 're right , you 're right . maxie : mm - hmm . so now that the finances are taken care of , all we have to do is find a new location to finish the film . dillon : [ sighs ] maxie , i really appreciate your efforts , but ... there is n't gon na be a film . maxie : what do you mean , `` there 's not gon na be a movie `` ? there has to be . you got shortlisted for that film festival . dillon : i 'm sure it wo n't be the first time an entry has withdrawn . maxie : okay , so withdraw it from this one and enter it in the next one . this has to happen . dillon : i 'm sorry . my heart 's just not in it . maxie : dillon , if this movie does n't get made , nobody 's gon na see me in it , and i 'm probably not gon na get another shot . i hate to be like this , but what about me ? [ scene_break ] alexis : so , now that i 'm here , why do n't we go upstairs and get some breakfast ? i 'm sure you get a discount now that you and olivia share a child . julian : [ chuckles ] yeah , i 'd love to , but , uh , i 'm kind of busy here . alexis : ooh . this is serious -- julian : mm . alexis : choosing a spreadsheet over breakfast with me ? what 's up ? julian : i do n't want to worry you . alexis : uh , we live together now . when you worry , i worry . julian : i 'm having some tax issues . my assets and holdings do n't really jibe with my reported earnings . alexis : so the irs noticed ? julian : turns out , i owe some back taxes . alexis : how much ? julian : a lot . alexis : ugh . [ scene_break ] nina : my aunt liesl . that 's a -- a - a pleasant surprise . dr. obrecht : [ clears throat ] nina , you 're heading out awfully early . what are you being arraigned for today ? franco : stop it . be nice . nina : no , it 's okay . it 's okay . see , that does not bother me . it does n't bother me . even my aunt liesl can not trample on my incredible day . if you must know what i 'm doing , i 'm going for a job interview . ciao . franco : ciao . dr. obrecht : so , why did you summon me here this morning ? i assume it was n't to offer me a cold and discarded pfannkuchen . why is this in the living room ? franco : it 's an experiment in dadaism . dr. obrecht : good job . now , what can i do for you ? franco : uh , you can rehire me . dr. obrecht : you want to come back to work at the hospital ? but why ? i know many people who would be more than happy with no responsibilities . franco : well , not me . i 'm -- i 'm not comfortable at all living this life of leisure . okay , if you have n't filled my old art - therapy position , i 'd like for you to give it back to me . dr. obrecht : it 's yours if you want it . franco : really ? thank you . dr. obrecht : just do n't let the psychiatrist see how ... ... interesting you really are . franco : psychiatrist ? what psychiatrist ? dr. obrecht : i 'd be delighted to give you back your job , but you 're going to have to pass a psychological evaluation first . [ scene_break ] laura : honey , you know you do n't have to figure anything out right now . really . you just had a horrible blow , and it 's really okay to give yourself some time and just , you know , try to make sense of it all . lulu : look , i hear what you 're saying , mom , honestly , but i do n't think there 's anything to figure out . that 's how you feel right now , but , uh , you need to think about what you really want . you know , for you and rocco , and it 's not so cut and dry , sweetie . lulu : i wo n't have a husband who cheats on me . laura : okay . so if you do get a divorce , you 're going to have an ex - husband who will be connected to you for the rest of your life courtesy of that little guy over there . lulu : you know something about that . laura : [ chuckling ] yeah , it was a never a dull moment with your dad . but i have to tell you something , sweetie . i am really proud of you that you are able to put your son 's needs first . lulu : no matter what happens i 'll never keep rocco from his father . laura : good girl . and if you think that your life would be happier without dante , give yourself permission to examine that option . lulu : i am . laura : and your other options . lulu : there 's some unbiased advice . laura : yeah , because as far as i 'm concerned , the only decision that you should be making right now is the one to give yourself some time . [ scene_break ] carly : hey . dante : hey . carly : is everything all right with sonny ? dante : physically , he seems okay . mentally , i do n't know . carly : yeah . dante : you guys want me to stick around ? carly : no , we got it . dante : all right . jason : thank you . dante : yeah . carly : hey . jason : hey . sonny : are you kidding me ? carly : no , we 're not kidding you . sonny : why is he here ? jason : you know what ? told you it was a bad idea . i got to -- carly : come on . no , please . please , come on . `` why is he here ? `` the man who saved your life ? sonny : you gon na use that card forever , carly ? carly : forever . now and forever , yeah . sonny : fine . why you here , jake ? carly : sonny , come on . sonny : i 'm just asking him a question . carly : [ sighs ] okay , you know what ? i tried to tell you last night , but it was n't the right time , and i 'm not the right person to say it . jason : okay , uh ... sonny , it turns out , my real name 's not jake . sonny : all right , so who the hell are you ? [ scene_break ] alexis : exactly how much do you owe in back taxes ? julian : well , i 'm not exactly sure , but i 'm getting my records together for my accountants . alexis : ooh , whoa . that 's a lot of assets . julian : mm - hmm . and there are my earnings . alexis : you know this is how they got al capone , do n't you ? julian : mm . alexis : the valuation of crimson seems low . julian : it 's not . in fact , crimson is a good name for it , because that title is bleeding money . the only way to save it is with a large infusion of cash , for which i 'll need some deep - pocketed investors , 'cause i 'm certainly not throwing good money after bad . alexis : okay , but , you know , you should just let the magazine die and write it off as a tax write - off . julian : hmm . alexis : what about the paper ? julian : mm . actually , that 's doing pretty good . nina : um , knock knock . julian : may i help you ? nina : yes , i 'm here to interview for the fashion - editor position . hello , alexis . alexis : h - hello , nina . julian : listen , hr 's down the hall . nina : i realize that , and i was on my way down there . and then i thought , i 'm gon na be working for you , right ? so should n't i interview with you ? julian : by all means . have a seat . [ scene_break ] franco : why do i need a psychiatric evaluation to be an art therapist ? dr. obrecht : i 'm afraid it 's hospital policy . not one of mine , obviously . franco : i did n't need one the last time i got the job . dr. obrecht : the board recently instituted it as a precaution . they found several loopholes in the vetting process of non - medical staff who treat patients . as such , they want to keep liability to a minimum . franco : so last time i got the job , it was because there was a loophole . dr. obrecht : i wish i could simply hand you back your job along with your brushes and oils , but i 'm afraid my hands are tied . i 'll understand if you want to refuse . franco : no . why would i refuse ? i 'll do it . that 's fine . i 'm not -- nothing to hide . nothing . bring it on . dr. obrecht : wunderbar . i 'm looking forward to our being ... franco : yeah , partners in crime . dr. obrecht : ... colleagues again . i 'll have my assistant set it up .

[ scene_break ] julian : mm - hmm . well , i can clearly see your past experience , but what i 'm more interested in is , um , your future . so , uh , you know , where do you -- where do you see yourself in the next five years ? nina : uh , i do n't know . i mean , nobody 's really asked me that question . julian : yeah , well , you can , uh , you know , use your imagination . nina : uh , well , to be honest -- to be honest , i - i see myself running this whole magazine . [ both chuckle ] julian : really ? i mean , if that 's the case , then , uh , you know , why do n't we -- why do n't we just do that ? nina : what ? what ? julian : yeah , yeah . my editor - in - chief just resigned . i need someone to take her place . what do you say ? you want the job ? nina : yes !

[ scene_break ] laura : you know the one thing that we have in common , dante ? we both know what it 's like to be married to a spencer . dante : yeah , we do . laura : mm - hmm . and they keep their emotions very close to the surface , they 're very impulsive , they do crazy things , like running off to canada with their exes without a word to anyone . dante : yeah , they do that . laura : yeah . and they 're quick to anger . and if they get hurt , they lash out . dante : so what am i supposed to do while she 's lashing out ? laura : stop giving her something to lash out against . i just told her that i think she needs to give herself some time . and i think you should do the same thing , honey . [ scene_break ] dillon : i 'm just taking down the monitor . lulu : i 'll come back when you 're done . dillon : lulu , wait . can i just -- can i just apologize ? i owe you that much . lulu : yeah , you do . dillon : maxie told me that you figured out it was me who showed the footage , and i just want you to know how sorry i am . i was n't thinking , and i just -- i made an impulsive decision . lulu : and you blew up my life . you played a video of valerie confessing that she slept with my husband . dillon : i - i ca n't apologize enough . lulu : maybe you did me a favor . if you had n't played that footage , i probably would 've never found out what dante did . but that does not excuse the fact that you did it in the worst possible way . so , yeah , you know what , you exposed dante , but you completely humiliated me .

[ lulu & dillon make out on the haunted star ]Summarize.[/INST]lulu is not ready to consider forgiving or getting back with dante right now although laura encourages them both to give this some time and not give up . dillon finds himself with no more incentive or motivation to continue shooting his movie . maxie is disappointed because she needs some purpose in her life . at the same time , nina is interviewing for a fashion designer job with crimson . julian hires her against alexis ' advice because he knows he needs a tax write - off and hiring her will enable him to do that . meanwhile , as soon as maxie knows that nina got a job for which she , herself , is far more qualified and experienced with , she is able to get nina to hire maxie as her personal assistant . carly urges jake to go and talk to sonny in his time of need . knowing that after losing custody of his daughter and being confined to a wheelchair , there 's never a better time for he husband to need and appreciate knowing that jason morgan is alive and well . jake reluctantly goes to see sonny and sonny somehow seems to know that he really is jason . sonny is just as encouraged as carly when he faces the man who may look different and have no memory , but whom he knows is his long - lost presumed - dead right - hand man and best friend . yet jake admits to both sonny and carly that he has no memory or feelings about being this profound person in both of their lives so he leaves and returns to elizabeth 's house still not knowing what to do at this point .</s> | 11,986 |

[ sighs ] no . it 's too risky . if it came out the evidence was planted , then you 'd be convicted for sure . sami : i guess that makes sense . glad i talked to you about it first . come here . it 's better when we 're together , planning , figuring things out together .

i get what ? 20 years ? life ? sami : i do n't think it will happen that way . ej : that is exactly what is gon na happen , samantha , exactly what 's gon na happen ! you and i both go to prison , except you get out a hell of a lot earlier than i do ! that works well for you , does n't it ? sami : this is not what i want . ej : well , that 's the deal you made . sami : not yet . ej : when was it exactly that you decided that this was the way to go ? sami : you heard what justin and that expert said about jury selection . i do n't have a chance at trial . what was i supposed to do ?

[ doors creak ] man : whoa . [ exclaiming ] woman : oh , my goodness . [ `` bridal chorus `` plays ] jj : chad . [ gentle music ] abigail : [ laughs ] [ laughter ] real cheese people are ham and swiss people . justin : i 'd like to begin by thanking all of you on behalf of the bride and grooms for being here today . now , i know most of you were expecting to see father louis standing up here to conduct the ceremony , but , unfortunately , he had a family tragedy , and he had to bow out at the last minute . so it is my great pleasure and honor to stand in his place . now , i promise i wo n't veer too far off course , which is why sonny had me put a little cheat sheet on my tablet to avoid doing just that . [ laughter ] but before i do begin speaking as today 's officiant , i would like to just say a few words as a father to one of the grooms and the uncle of the bride . like many of you , we 've all been to our fair share of weddings . but we 've all seen ceremonies where the egos involved sometimes overshadowed the very reason that brought us all together in the first place . but that 's not the case today . that 's not the case for these four extraordinary people , extraordinary friends , who have chosen to share their special day with each other and all of us . their wedding is n't about just them as individuals . it 's a collective celebration of their love for one another , and there 's a lot of love in this room -- not just between the bride and the grooms , but among those of us who are lucky enough to be part of their lives . and i realize that some of us here have had our differences , okay ? some of us have had many differences in the past . [ chuckling ] but , as we gather here today , to bear witness to these two beautiful couples , paul and sonny , chad and abigail , i trust that we can leave any feelings of ill will outside the church . marriage is a sacred institution , not to be entered into lightly or unadvisedly , so i must ask if anyone here can show just cause why either of these couples should not be lawfully joined together , let them speak now or forever hold their peace . [ door opens ] [ ominous music ] julie : oh , uh , sorry . [ laughter ] trouble with the caterers . doug : yes , but it 's all been handled -- we handled it . do n't worry , continue . julie : so yeah , do n't wait for us . doug : keep on going . julie : yeah . [ laughter ] doug : this way , this way . julie : oh , excuse me , sorry , sorry . i 'm so sorry . justin : okay , since no one here has any objections , we 'll move on . our couples have asked a member of their respective families to speak on their behalf today . brady ? brady : [ clears throat ] i was going to talk about love . that 's a -- it 's a wedding . so that 's what you do . you talk about love . i was going to say that when you share your life with someone you love , it 's more meaningful -- it 's better . it 's richer . but the truth is , when you love someone , it can be hard . it can be -- it can be complicated . it can be one of the hardest things that you ever do , but that does n't mean you give up and walk away . because , without love , life is -- life is really not worth the trouble it brings . when we stop loving , we stop living , and when we stop loving , we might as well die . my wish for all of you is this -- no matter how tough things get , and they will get tough , do n't ever give up on each other . do everything you can , no matter who or what gets in your way , to be with the one that you love . [ gentle music ] justin : andre ? andre : i 'm very proud of my brother today . and equally proud of the woman that he 's chosen to be his wife . when i 'm around abigail and chad , i ca n't help but be uplifted by the light that comes from the love that emanates from them . it 's made my heart not so dark . and i 've turned out to be a better man . i 'm quite sure that everyone in this room will agree that history will not be remembering the dimeras for how they loved , but when they write the story of chad and abigail , it 'll be a story of beauty , poignancy -- a story of true love , a passion that is timeless . and so i want to say to them , to wish them a very well - deserved happily ever after .

[ doors creak ] man : whoa . [ exclaiming ] woman : oh , my goodness . [ `` bridal chorus `` plays ] jj : chad . [ gentle music ] abigail : [ laughs ] [ laughter ] real cheese people are ham and swiss people . justin : i 'd like to begin by thanking all of you on behalf of the bride and grooms for being here today . now , i know most of you were expecting to see father louis standing up here to conduct the ceremony , but , unfortunately , he had a family tragedy , and he had to bow out at the last minute . so it is my great pleasure and honor to stand in his place . now , i promise i wo n't veer too far off course , which is why sonny had me put a little cheat sheet on my tablet to avoid doing just that . [ laughter ] but before i do begin speaking as today 's officiant , i would like to just say a few words as a father to one of the grooms and the uncle of the bride . like many of you , we 've all been to our fair share of weddings . but we 've all seen ceremonies where the egos involved sometimes overshadowed the very reason that brought us all together in the first place . but that 's not the case today . that 's not the case for these four extraordinary people , extraordinary friends , who have chosen to share their special day with each other and all of us . their wedding is n't about just them as individuals . it 's a collective celebration of their love for one another , and there 's a lot of love in this room -- not just between the bride and the grooms , but among those of us who are lucky enough to be part of their lives . and i realize that some of us here have had our differences , okay ? some of us have had many differences in the past . [ chuckling ] but , as we gather here today , to bear witness to these two beautiful couples , paul and sonny , chad and abigail , i trust that we can leave any feelings of ill will outside the church . marriage is a sacred institution , not to be entered into lightly or unadvisedly , so i must ask if anyone here can show just cause why either of these couples should not be lawfully joined together , let them speak now or forever hold their peace . [ door opens ] [ ominous music ] julie : oh , uh , sorry . [ laughter ] trouble with the caterers . doug : yes , but it 's all been handled -- we handled it . do n't worry , continue . julie : so yeah , do n't wait for us . doug : keep on going . julie : yeah . [ laughter ] doug : this way , this way . julie : oh , excuse me , sorry , sorry . i 'm so sorry . justin : okay , since no one here has any objections , we 'll move on . our couples have asked a member of their respective families to speak on their behalf today . brady ? brady : [ clears throat ] i was going to talk about love . that 's a -- it 's a wedding . so that 's what you do . you talk about love . i was going to say that when you share your life with someone you love , it 's more meaningful -- it 's better . it 's richer . but the truth is , when you love someone , it can be hard . it can be -- it can be complicated . it can be one of the hardest things that you ever do , but that does n't mean you give up and walk away . because , without love , life is -- life is really not worth the trouble it brings . when we stop loving , we stop living , and when we stop loving , we might as well die . my wish for all of you is this -- no matter how tough things get , and they will get tough , do n't ever give up on each other . do everything you can , no matter who or what gets in your way , to be with the one that you love . [ gentle music ] justin : andre ? andre : i 'm very proud of my brother today . and equally proud of the woman that he 's chosen to be his wife . when i 'm around abigail and chad , i ca n't help but be uplifted by the light that comes from the love that emanates from them . it 's made my heart not so dark . and i 've turned out to be a better man . i 'm quite sure that everyone in this room will agree that history will not be remembering the dimeras for how they loved , but when they write the story of chad and abigail , it 'll be a story of beauty , poignancy -- a story of true love , a passion that is timeless . and so i want to say to them , to wish them a very well - deserved happily ever after .

[ scene_break ] david : your father 's going to be fine , jake , if he gets his rest . you might want to convince him to stay in bed for a few days . jake : he 's going to miss the heart health benefit , the campbell 's thing -- david : right , right . come on , i 'm running an event to promote cardiac health . the last thing i need is your father dropping dead at the event . so , he 'll swallow his pride , and he 'll stay home . and we 'll raise a boatload of cash for a very worthy cause . now , if you 'll excuse me , i have places to be .

[ scene_break ] bianca : i wish i could take it all back -- the night in marseille , the secrets that we kept from kendall , the whole ridiculous , insane plan . zach : you have regrets . you regret that gabrielle is here ? bianca : i love that little girl . all i care about is my children . it 's my job to make sure that they are happy and safe , and that 's why i 'm going to go back to france without reese . she 's not going to be allowed to see them , and neither are you . it 's the way it should be . it 's the way it would have been if we had gone to a sperm bank instead of being so incredibly selfish and stupid . and i know you ca n't fight me about it , because you know what that would do to kendall . she would see how much you care about gabrielle and how you ca n't let her go , and she would never forgive either one of us , and i know you ca n't live with that . would you say something ? zach : i always saw the best parts of erica in you . always the best -- never insecurities , arrogance , and the selfishness -- until now . you 've turned into your mother . it makes me very sad . oh , you know , that 's not right , it does n't make me sad . it makes me sick . bianca : go to hell .

[ scene_break ] kendall : my husband did n't murder anyone . jesse : zach could n't see greenlee coming around that curve , ryan . you told the sheriff the same story , right ? kendall : yes , yes . it was dark , and the road was winding , and zach had drifted into the wrong lane . jesse : he stayed at the scene . he helped with the search , he cooperated with the police . ryan : great , great , big hero . greenlee is still dead , ok ? zach is responsible , and i want to press charges . kendall : why ? ryan , that would only make everything worse . ryan : kendall , if zach had n't have been messing around with another woman , greenlee would still be alive . do you understand that ? kendall : stop it , stop , stop . ryan : he is the reason that she was on the road . he 's the reason the car was on the wrong side , because you were arguing about reese . jesse : ryan -- ryan : zach and reese are behind everything here , guys . why do n't you see that ? jesse : ryan , cheating on your husband or your wife , unfortunately that is not a crime . ryan : get out . jesse : ryan , if you 're thinking about taking the law into your own hands -- ryan : get out . jesse : ryan . ryan : now , jesse . get out , right now . kendall : ryan -- ryan : kendall , i love you . you know that . we both love greenlee . but if you are with zach on this , i need you to leave , too . now . jesse : you seem a little nervous , kendall . is there anything else you want to tell me -- what happened in that car ?

[ scene_break ] bianca : kendall , she 's smart not to take you back . forgive and forget -- that 's what i did with reese time and time and time again . i accepted her apologies , i excused her lies . in my heart i knew that something was n't right , but i just refused to believe it was true . i could n't accept that i could be so wrong about the people i loved . so , i came up with all kinds of explanations and rationalizations and in the end it did n't matter at all . everything fell apart anyway , in my life and in yours . zach : people that love each other , they work things out . kendall and i always have . bianca : you kissed reese . you probably had sex with her . you really think kendall 's just going to be able to get over that ? zach : no , i did n't have sex with her , but i guess it does n't matter what i say . bianca : you betrayed me . the trust is gone . it 's over . zach : it 's your decision to make . bianca : do you think it 's a mistake ? well , it ca n't be any worse than the other decisions i 've made this year . i chose you to be the father of my child -- that was the worst mistake of my life . [ scene_break ] david : your father 's going to be fine , jake , if he gets his rest . you might want to convince him to stay in bed for a few days . jake : he 's going to miss the heart health benefit , the campbell 's thing -- david : right , right . come on , i 'm running an event to promote cardiac health . the last thing i need is your father dropping dead at the event . so , he 'll swallow his pride , and he 'll stay home . and we 'll raise a boatload of cash for a very worthy cause . now , if you 'll excuse me , i have places to be .

[ scene_break ] bianca : i wish i could take it all back -- the night in marseille , the secrets that we kept from kendall , the whole ridiculous , insane plan . zach : you have regrets . you regret that gabrielle is here ? bianca : i love that little girl . all i care about is my children . it 's my job to make sure that they are happy and safe , and that 's why i 'm going to go back to france without reese . she 's not going to be allowed to see them , and neither are you . it 's the way it should be . it 's the way it would have been if we had gone to a sperm bank instead of being so incredibly selfish and stupid . and i know you ca n't fight me about it , because you know what that would do to kendall . she would see how much you care about gabrielle and how you ca n't let her go , and she would never forgive either one of us , and i know you ca n't live with that . would you say something ? zach : i always saw the best parts of erica in you . always the best -- never insecurities , arrogance , and the selfishness -- until now . you 've turned into your mother . it makes me very sad . oh , you know , that 's not right , it does n't make me sad . it makes me sick . bianca : go to hell .

[ scene_break ] bianca : you went to a judge , and you got a court order to keep me in the country ? reese : if you want to put an ocean between me and my daughter and keep me away from her for god knows how long -- bianca : because you cheated on me . you ruined everything that we ever had . reese : this is the only way that i knew how to get you to stay . unless you want to give me another chance . we can fix this . the moment i met you i knew that we belonged together -- you , me , our kids . it has n't changed . we can fix this , if you believe in us . i still love you . bianca : i do n't love you anymore . [ scene_break ] kendall : my husband did n't murder anyone . jesse : zach could n't see greenlee coming around that curve , ryan . you told the sheriff the same story , right ? kendall : yes , yes . it was dark , and the road was winding , and zach had drifted into the wrong lane . jesse : he stayed at the scene . he helped with the search , he cooperated with the police . ryan : great , great , big hero . greenlee is still dead , ok ? zach is responsible , and i want to press charges . kendall : why ? ryan , that would only make everything worse . ryan : kendall , if zach had n't have been messing around with another woman , greenlee would still be alive . do you understand that ? kendall : stop it , stop , stop . ryan : he is the reason that she was on the road . he 's the reason the car was on the wrong side , because you were arguing about reese . jesse : ryan -- ryan : zach and reese are behind everything here , guys . why do n't you see that ? jesse : ryan , cheating on your husband or your wife , unfortunately that is not a crime . ryan : get out . jesse : ryan , if you 're thinking about taking the law into your own hands -- ryan : get out . jesse : ryan . ryan : now , jesse . get out , right now . kendall : ryan -- ryan : kendall , i love you . you know that . we both love greenlee . but if you are with zach on this , i need you to leave , too . now . jesse : you seem a little nervous , kendall . is there anything else you want to tell me -- what happened in that car ?

[ cell phone ringing ] rex : [ sighs ] well , it 's shane . guess we better figure this out pretty quick . téa : a confession ? on tape ? john : yeah . téa : uh - huh . well , i hope you had a warrant for that wiretap because hacking into a minor 's cell phone is no small matter to a judge . john : it was n't a wiretap . it was a live recording . [ recorder clicks ] jack : you know shane -- the kid i picked on ? his mother died because of me . [ recorder clicks ] téa : so , you had an undercover cop wearing a wire ? i do n't think i have to remind you what constitutes entrapment , do i ? john : it was n't a police operation . it was brought in by a civilian . vimal : so this is why you 're so upset -- this boy ? neela , i understand that you had a little crush on him , but he 's a murderer . rama : arrested on christmas ? god , his poor family . vimal : that family is responsible . they should have realized they were raising a scoundrel . neela : he 's not a scoundrel ! how can you even say that after he saved you both from the fire ? if it were n't for jack , the two of you would have burnt to a crisp . vimal : i have n't forgotten that , but it does n't change or excuse what he did . neela , i 'm telling you , it 's a good thing this boy 's behind bars , 'cause if he was n't , i would forbid you from ever seeing him again . blair : i knew that victor was covering for you , i knew that you were responsible for gigi 's death , and i knew that victor had done something so despicable that it got brad to confess . jack : but you did n't say anything . blair : because i was waiting to hear it from you , jack . and as angry as i was at victor , i was -- deep down , i was , um ... i was grateful . jack : grateful ? blair : yes . because it kept you out of jail . this is the last place i ever wanted to see you . jack : mom , it 's okay . blair : no , it 's not okay ! because of you , a woman is dead , jack ! rex : hey , buddy . how 's it going ? how was the rest of your christmas ? [ cell phone beeps ] shane : it was okay . i still wish you could have been here . grandma echo could n't make it back from her shoot in mendorra , but it was still fun spending it with viki . rex : look , i 'm -- i 'm sorry i could n't be there with you . shane : it 's okay . it totally worked out . viki felt so sorry for me 'cause i was spending christmas alone that she kind of went overboard on the presents . rex : yeah ? score . what 'd you get ? shane : a new drum kit . and she talked to the cartoon editor at the banner . he 's gon na let me shadow him for a few days ! rex : that -- that sounds amazing . uh , b - but l - listen , not for nothing , i - i think that my gift is gon na top all of that . shane : what ? are you getting me my present at the airport ? rex : are you kidding ? shane : yeah . you know i do n't care what you get me . i 'll just be glad when you get here . besides , my news is gon na blow your present out of the water . rex : we 'll see about that . shane : so , when are you coming back ? rex : uh , do n't worry . w - we 'll be on the next flight out . shane : `` we `` ? who 's `` we `` ? shane : dad ? who 's `` we `` ? rex : `` we `` ? did i say `` we `` ? no , i meant `` me . `` shane : you meant `` me going to be on the next flight out `` ? rex : i ... what can i say , shane ? uh , it 's been a long trip . shane : [ chuckles ] rex : i guess it 's been a while since i 've flown solo . anyway , uh , is viki okay with you staying there until i get back ? shane : actually , she went out . i 'm manning the fort with aunt natalie and grandpa clint . rex : well , tell them i said merry christmas , and i will see you soon . okay ? i love you , buddy . shane : love you , too , dad . gigi : he sounds so grown up . his voice has changed even more , has n't it ? oh , my god . he 's becoming a man . rex : no . not yet . gigi : yeah . rex : but when he does , you will be there to see it . gigi : hey , um ... he called clint `` grandpa . `` what 's up with that ? natalie : lois is making eggs if you want in . clint : i hope it 's none of that egg - white crap your mother 's pushing on me . natalie : nope . poached with the yolk running out , just the way you like it . speaking of mom ... clint : yes ? natalie : you two were totally making out last night . clint : were we ? natalie : mm - hmm , like teenagers . so ... does this mean what i think it means ? are you two getting back together ? clint : get lois to sneak some bacon into those eggs . natalie : dad , answer the question . clint : all right . your mother and i -- we admitted how we feel about each other . natalie : finally ! clint : but we 're taking it slowly , one day at a time , because we want to do it right . natalie : is there a reason that you would n't ? clint : yeah . any number of reasons . most notably , it 's rather awkward that shane is my grandson and jack 's her nephew . natalie : well , just so you know , i 'm rooting for you . clint : what makes you think your mother and i would work as a couple ? we 've already divorced each other twice . and you , my dear , did n't know us back when we were together . natalie : the first time i saw you two in the same room , i could see how much you love each other . so , face it , dad . some people are just meant to be together . gigi : last time i checked , you and clint wanted nothing to do with each other . and now he 's watching our son . so , what happened ? rex : it all started after we found a donor heart for clint . gigi : oh , yeah . what you said yesterday about giving stacy 's heart away . rex : yeah , listen , geeg ... gigi : rex , when i ... when i woke up in the hospital and i could n't remember anything , i went online , and ... i saw my ... obituary . and it said that clint got his heart from me , but ... it was really from stacy , huh ? téa : you 're serious ? you 're actually telling me a civilian brought that in ? todd : how do we even know it 's legitimate ? how do we know that that 's jack ? john : we can certainly hope , manning . téa : i trust that the lpd is running a full analysis of that tape ? john : absolutely . we should have the results very soon . téa : mm - hmm . and given the lpd 's history of pointing fingers at anyone named manning , i want a private firm to analyze that tape , as well . john : fine . knock yourself out . are we done here ? todd : no . jack has a right to know his accuser . i want a name . neela : you 're not my father . you have no right to forbid me to see anyone . vimal : i most certainly do ! while you 're living in this country under my roof , i 'm responsible for you , which means you have to do what i say . neela : so much for seeing how relationships work for myself . vimal : well , when you find a boy who has n't killed anybody , then you can relate to him as much as you like . perhaps you would be better off marrying rajeev . neela : you would n't . rama : okay , listen . no one is making anyone marry anybody , all right ? vimal . why do n't you go see if something 's interesting to read on the newsstand ? vimal : are you trying to get rid of me ? rama : let me handle this , okay ? i wo n't be long . vimal : [ sighs ] i wo n't be gone long . rama : so , tell me , what 's wrong ? neela : what do you think , rama ? the boy that i thought was my friend is in jail . rama : yeah , i know , but that 's not it , right ? there 's obviously something else bothering you . neela : jack is in jail ... because of me . jack : you do n't think i know what i 've done ? blair : i really , really wish i did know that . because for months , i 've been searching for any sign of remorse from you about what you did to gigi , everything that you did to shane -- jack : okay , fine ! i 'm sorry ! blair : not to mention everything that you 've put your father through ! jack : he is not my father ! blair : he is your father ! he is ! jack : look , i might have invited him over for christmas dinner just because i felt sorry for the guy , but that does not make him my father . blair : you do n't `` make `` him anything , okay ? he just is what he is , and i do believe that i would know that he 's your father . jack : great . that makes one whole thing you know about me . blair : what 's that supposed to mean , son ? jack : it 's supposed to mean that the only time you show any interest in me is when i 'm in trouble ! blair : oh , that is not true , jack manning ! jack : maybe you just do n't get me . you never laugh at my jokes . only dad -- victor . he was the only one who would . he was the one who taught me to deal with that kid who stole my lunch money in middle school . blair : oh , well , apparently , he inspired you to , uh , steal it from the other kids , too . jack : do n't talk about him like that ! you 're making him seem like he 's the bad guy . he was my father ! he was the only one in the entire world who cared about me ! where were you ? blair : i was there , jack . i was there every single day . jack : except for starr 's latest drama or when sam got kidnapped -- again -- or when you decided to date another homicidal maniac . blair : do n't you dare talk to me like that , because i have been there for you . i have always been there for you ! god , how was i to know that something was even wrong , jack ? you never said a thing to me about it ! jack : i should n't have had to ! you should have asked . just face it , mom . i was always one kid too many for you . blair : that 's so not fair , jack , because i have loved all of my children equally . jack : yeah , right . blair : do you have any idea how lucky -- how lucky you are ? you have this huge family that loves you so much -- so much ! you know , i never had that growing up . i went from foster home -- jack : `` foster home to foster home . `` i remember . blair : well , maybe you do n't remember it like i remember it . 'cause i 'm telling you right now , it was no piece of cake . even the good homes had too many kids , so i know what it 's like to be lost in the shuffle . and i 'm telling you right now , that never happened to you . not one single day of your little life . and for you to sit there and you to tell that to me , that 's a cop - out ! because i 've been there for you ! i 've had your back ! i 've been beside you all the time because i love you , son . [ voice breaking ] i love you , and i 'm always gon na love you , and nothing is gon na change that ! do you hear me ? ! all right . i 'm gon na go now , and i 'm gon na talk -- i 'm gon na talk to téa , and just hopefully [ inhales deeply ] hopefully john , all that evidence , it just wo n't be as bad as we think it is . guard ! jack : mom . blair : what ? jack : what happened to shane 's mom , it -- it really was an accident . i did n't mean for her to get hurt . [ cell door opens ] blair : that 's -- that 's -- that 's good to know . [ cell door closes ] rex : i thought that you were dead . i thought that i 'd found you lying in a basement next to a broken generator that was leaking carbon monoxide . it was our wedding day . but instead of hearing you say `` i do , `` i heard some doctor telling me they `` did everything they could . `` and after that , i was in a pretty dark place . gigi : i 'm so sorry . rex : look -- no , it 's not your fault . i know that jack manning was responsible for your ... death . but he walked because victor lord jr . paid somebody to take the rap for him . stacy : who 's victor lord jr. ? rex : all right . um , short answer -- the psycho formerly known as todd manning . it 's a long story . i will tell you all about it on the plane . the point is that jack had his freedom because his dad paid somebody off , and i thought that the only way to get justice for you and the only way to keep shane safe was to have the same kind of power and money that jack 's family had , and i thought the only way to get that was to get clint 's money . and i was ready to do some pretty terrible stuff , but something stopped me . gigi : what ? rex : you . everywhere i turned , i kept seeing you . gigi : you saw me ? rex : yeah . as clear as you are sitting next to me right now . even now , i have no idea what it was . the point is , i 've wanted to do the right thing because of you , w - w - what you would have wanted me to do . gigi : so , even in a coma , i was still bossing you around . rex : i do n't care . you 're back now . i hope you keep bossing me around for the rest of my life . gigi : okay . well , then , here 's what 's gon na happen . first , you 're gon na kiss me . and when we 're gon na head home to our son . rex : yes , ma'am . shane : dad 's on his way home . i ca n't wait to see the look on his face when i tell him the news . natalie : he 's gon na be really proud of you . your mom , too . shane : i just wish she was still here . then i could make her proud by doing something else . natalie : did i ever tell you how your mom and i became such good friends ? shane : i do n't think so . natalie : it 's when i found out i was pregnant , and i was -- i was really scared . freaking out , actually . i did n't know who liam 's father was , and i did n't know what to do , and i did n't how it was going to affect the lives of everyone i loved . then your mom accidentally found out what i was going through , and she set me straight . shane : how ? natalie : she told me it was okay to be scared , it was okay not to know what to do , but what was n't okay was to sit back and do nothing , that i had to make decisions . shane : that sounds just like my mom . natalie : mm - hmm . and the most important thing that she said to me is , no matter what decisions i make , she would have my back . i think that your mom ... would see a lot of herself in you . shane : yeah ? natalie : yeah . yeah , definitely . trust me . i 'm a mother , too . john : you know , manning , this is a criminal investigation . often what you want and what you get are two different things . you of all people should -- blair : what 's going on here ? todd : he 'll tell you . i 'm gon na go see our son . blair : was that about the new evidence you have on jack ? how bad is it ? téa : bad . jack : what are you doing here ? todd : i just spoke with john mcbain . do you know what they have on you ? neela : i fell head over heels for jack . he helped me when i had no one else to turn to . i believed he was such a good person . rama : you do n't believe that anymore ? neela : i do n't know . i mean , after i met shane , rama , he was so sad because of what happened to his mother . shane begged me to help him , and i agreed . i told jack he could trust me . and i betrayed him . todd : there 's a tape , jack , of you confessing . jack : what ? that 's impossible ! todd : i heard it myself . neela : so , i recorded his confession , and i turned it in to the police . rama : you did the right thing , okay ? you should be proud , neela . think of all the good you were able to do for shane . neela : what about jack ? rama : you 're helping him take responsibility for his own actions . he should be held accountable for what he did . neela : it still feels so wrong . i mean , what jack did to shane 's mother was an accident . but how i hurt jack , it was deliberate . i set him up . todd : someone set you up . someone was trying to get you to talk . they were waiting with a tape recorder , and they got you to open up your mouth . jack : no , there 's no way . no one even knows what i 've done . todd : i heard the recording . someone got you to open up your trap . neela : how 's jack going to feel when he finds out that i was the one who got him arrested ? he 'll never speak to me again . todd : give me a name , jack . tell me who set you up , and i 'll deal with the son of a bitch . vimal : is everything all right ? neela : i 'm fine . vimal : neela , i - i owe you an apology . i - i may have overreacted before . neela : when you told me you 'd force me to marry someone i do n't love ? vimal : please understand that i 'm only trying to protect you . neela : vimal , i do n't need you to protect me . vimal : no , but i need to protect you because i love you . i -- do you have any idea what you mean to me ? rama : it 's true , you know . when we first got married , you were all he could talk about . `` my beautiful sister , how tall she 's getting . my beautiful sister , she 's doing so well at school . `` i got sick about hearing about you . vimal : i just -- i just hope one day you 'll understand why i 'm so strict with you . and -- and maybe if these charges against jack prove to be false , then we can have a discussion about it . but i do think it 's admirable that you 're being such a loyal friend . neela : i have to go . i have to get to the library to start an assignment for winter break . vimal : she hates me . rama : no , that 's not true . she just has other things on her mind . jack : i did n't mean for her to die . but she did ... because of me . [ recorder clicks ] john : i 'm not a lawyer , but there 's not a lot of gray area there . blair : [ sighs ] téa : hey . i 'm not gon na lie to you , blair . if that tape checks out , jack 's in big trouble . blair : but it was an accident . it was an accident . you heard him . he said he did n't mean for it to happen . téa : and they probably will not charge him as an adult , okay ? blair : you got to do something , téa , because i 've done everything . i do n't know what else to do here . téa : i 'm gon na do everything i can , all right ? i 'm gon na treat jack as if he were my own . we 're family . you ought to know that by now . blair : jack 's probably right . it was my fault . téa : what are you talking about ? blair : he says that i never showed him enough attention . téa : that 's bull and you know it . blair : okay , you know what ? it does n't make it any better or any easier what my son is going through . jack : i did n't tell anyone anything . todd : jack , i heard the recording myself . jack : then it must be fake . todd : look , you do n't -- you do n't like me , and that 's not important to me right now . you need me . but i ca n't help you , jack , unless you tell me the truth . jack : i am telling the truth ! i swear ! todd : why do n't you -- why do n't you calm down and think about it , okay ? i 'm gon na go upstairs , and your mom and i , we 're gon na get you out of here , okay ? guard ! jack : thanks ... for helping me . it really means a lot .

[ sighs ] rex : i 'm sure shane will feel the same way . i wonder what he had to tell me . he -- he said last night that he had some big news . uh , i do n't see how it 's possibly gon na top ours . gigi : [ chuckles ] shane : so , after neela gave me the tape of jack confessing , i handed it over to john mcbain . clint : hmm . and john already had him arrested . made short work out of that . natalie : yeah , he did . clint : shane , i 'm proud of you . you really stepped up to the plate for your mother . rex is gon na be proud of you , too , once he gets home . shane : thanks . i should probably call him and see if he 's coming home soon . clint : uh , before you do that , shane , there 's , uh ... there 's something i 'd like to say . todd : what are you talking about ? i did n't pay off this brad kid . john : right , that was your brother , victor , back when he was passing himself off as you , before delgado killed him . todd : okay , i understand that you and victor were never pals , but that does n't give you the right to railroad jack . [ knock on door ] john : come on in . todd : delgado , thank god you 're here . will you please help my son ? téa : what 's the deal , detective ? john : you sure you 're up for this ? i mean , you just got out of the hospital . todd : [ scoffs ] like that 's gon na stop her . téa : the doctor says that it 's fine for me to go back to work , so let 's get to it . what 's the new evidence ? john : jack confessed on tape . clint : shane , i realize that you and i are still getting to know each other , but i have to say , the way you handled things with jack -- that was very buchanan of you . shane : thanks ? clint : [ chuckles ] i know you 've been looking for justice for your mom . i hope this brings you a little peace of mind . shane : i hope so , too . clint : you know , gigi may no longer be with us , but my , oh , my , she had a good heart , and nobody knows that better than i do , except maybe for you . but , son , she 's resting easier now knowing that you will finally be able to put this behind you . and now she wants you to start resting easier , too . shane : you really think so ? clint : no , i do n't think so . i can feel it . shane : thanks ... grandpa . rex : what you looking at ? gigi : the snow . it 's so beautiful . you know , in all the years that i lived here in texas , it never really snowed except that one time . rex : yeah ? what time was that ? gigi : uh , christmas 2007 ... when we ran into each other for the first time since high school . rex : right . i remember . you were even more beautiful than i remembered . shane was there . i did n't even know he was my son yet . gigi : you sure we 're doing the right thing , waiting to tell him in person ? rex : you having second thoughts ? gigi : i 'm not sure . [ cell phone ringing ] rex : [ sighs ] well , it 's shane . guess we better figure this out pretty quick . téa : a confession ? on tape ? john : yeah . téa : uh - huh . well , i hope you had a warrant for that wiretap because hacking into a minor 's cell phone is no small matter to a judge . john : it was n't a wiretap . it was a live recording . [ recorder clicks ] jack : you know shane -- the kid i picked on ? his mother died because of me . [ recorder clicks ] téa : so , you had an undercover cop wearing a wire ? i do n't think i have to remind you what constitutes entrapment , do i ? john : it was n't a police operation . it was brought in by a civilian . vimal : so this is why you 're so upset -- this boy ? neela , i understand that you had a little crush on him , but he 's a murderer . rama : arrested on christmas ? god , his poor family . vimal : that family is responsible . they should have realized they were raising a scoundrel . neela : he 's not a scoundrel ! how can you even say that after he saved you both from the fire ? if it were n't for jack , the two of you would have burnt to a crisp . vimal : i have n't forgotten that , but it does n't change or excuse what he did . neela , i 'm telling you , it 's a good thing this boy 's behind bars , 'cause if he was n't , i would forbid you from ever seeing him again . blair : i knew that victor was covering for you , i knew that you were responsible for gigi 's death , and i knew that victor had done something so despicable that it got brad to confess . jack : but you did n't say anything . blair : because i was waiting to hear it from you , jack . and as angry as i was at victor , i was -- deep down , i was , um ... i was grateful . jack : grateful ? blair : yes . because it kept you out of jail . this is the last place i ever wanted to see you . jack : mom , it 's okay . blair : no , it 's not okay ! because of you , a woman is dead , jack ! rex : hey , buddy . how 's it going ? how was the rest of your christmas ? [ cell phone beeps ] shane : it was okay . i still wish you could have been here . grandma echo could n't make it back from her shoot in mendorra , but it was still fun spending it with viki . rex : look , i 'm -- i 'm sorry i could n't be there with you . shane : it 's okay . it totally worked out . viki felt so sorry for me 'cause i was spending christmas alone that she kind of went overboard on the presents . rex : yeah ? score . what 'd you get ? shane : a new drum kit . and she talked to the cartoon editor at the banner . he 's gon na let me shadow him for a few days ! rex : that -- that sounds amazing . uh , b - but l - listen , not for nothing , i - i think that my gift is gon na top all of that . shane : what ? are you getting me my present at the airport ? rex : are you kidding ? shane : yeah . you know i do n't care what you get me . i 'll just be glad when you get here . besides , my news is gon na blow your present out of the water . rex : we 'll see about that . shane : so , when are you coming back ? rex : uh , do n't worry . w - we 'll be on the next flight out . shane : `` we `` ? who 's `` we `` ? shane : dad ? who 's `` we `` ? rex : `` we `` ? did i say `` we `` ? no , i meant `` me . `` shane : you meant `` me going to be on the next flight out `` ? rex : i ... what can i say , shane ? uh , it 's been a long trip . shane : [ chuckles ] rex : i guess it 's been a while since i 've flown solo . anyway , uh , is viki okay with you staying there until i get back ? shane : actually , she went out . i 'm manning the fort with aunt natalie and grandpa clint . rex : well , tell them i said merry christmas , and i will see you soon . okay ? i love you , buddy . shane : love you , too , dad . gigi : he sounds so grown up . his voice has changed even more , has n't it ? oh , my god . he 's becoming a man . rex : no . not yet . gigi : yeah . rex : but when he does , you will be there to see it . gigi : hey , um ... he called clint `` grandpa . `` what 's up with that ? natalie : lois is making eggs if you want in . clint : i hope it 's none of that egg - white crap your mother 's pushing on me . natalie : nope . poached with the yolk running out , just the way you like it . speaking of mom ... clint : yes ? natalie : you two were totally making out last night . clint : were we ? natalie : mm - hmm , like teenagers . so ... does this mean what i think it means ? are you two getting back together ? clint : get lois to sneak some bacon into those eggs . natalie : dad , answer the question . clint : all right . your mother and i -- we admitted how we feel about each other . natalie : finally ! clint : but we 're taking it slowly , one day at a time , because we want to do it right . natalie : is there a reason that you would n't ? clint : yeah . any number of reasons . most notably , it 's rather awkward that shane is my grandson and jack 's her nephew . natalie : well , just so you know , i 'm rooting for you . clint : what makes you think your mother and i would work as a couple ? we 've already divorced each other twice . and you , my dear , did n't know us back when we were together . natalie : the first time i saw you two in the same room , i could see how much you love each other . so , face it , dad . some people are just meant to be together . gigi : last time i checked , you and clint wanted nothing to do with each other . and now he 's watching our son . so , what happened ? rex : it all started after we found a donor heart for clint . gigi : oh , yeah . what you said yesterday about giving stacy 's heart away . rex : yeah , listen , geeg ... gigi : rex , when i ... when i woke up in the hospital and i could n't remember anything , i went online , and ... i saw my ... obituary . and it said that clint got his heart from me , but ... it was really from stacy , huh ? téa : you 're serious ? you 're actually telling me a civilian brought that in ? todd : how do we even know it 's legitimate ? how do we know that that 's jack ? john : we can certainly hope , manning . téa : i trust that the lpd is running a full analysis of that tape ? john : absolutely . we should have the results very soon . téa : mm - hmm . and given the lpd 's history of pointing fingers at anyone named manning , i want a private firm to analyze that tape , as well . john : fine . knock yourself out . are we done here ? todd : no . jack has a right to know his accuser . i want a name . neela : you 're not my father . you have no right to forbid me to see anyone . vimal : i most certainly do ! while you 're living in this country under my roof , i 'm responsible for you , which means you have to do what i say . neela : so much for seeing how relationships work for myself . vimal : well , when you find a boy who has n't killed anybody , then you can relate to him as much as you like . perhaps you would be better off marrying rajeev . neela : you would n't . rama : okay , listen . no one is making anyone marry anybody , all right ? vimal . why do n't you go see if something 's interesting to read on the newsstand ? vimal : are you trying to get rid of me ? rama : let me handle this , okay ? i wo n't be long . vimal : [ sighs ] i wo n't be gone long . rama : so , tell me , what 's wrong ? neela : what do you think , rama ? the boy that i thought was my friend is in jail . rama : yeah , i know , but that 's not it , right ? there 's obviously something else bothering you . neela : jack is in jail ... because of me . jack : you do n't think i know what i 've done ? blair : i really , really wish i did know that . because for months , i 've been searching for any sign of remorse from you about what you did to gigi , everything that you did to shane -- jack : okay , fine ! i 'm sorry ! blair : not to mention everything that you 've put your father through ! jack : he is not my father ! blair : he is your father ! he is ! jack : look , i might have invited him over for christmas dinner just because i felt sorry for the guy , but that does not make him my father . blair : you do n't `` make `` him anything , okay ? he just is what he is , and i do believe that i would know that he 's your father . jack : great . that makes one whole thing you know about me . blair : what 's that supposed to mean , son ? jack : it 's supposed to mean that the only time you show any interest in me is when i 'm in trouble ! blair : oh , that is not true , jack manning ! jack : maybe you just do n't get me . you never laugh at my jokes . only dad -- victor . he was the only one who would . he was the one who taught me to deal with that kid who stole my lunch money in middle school . blair : oh , well , apparently , he inspired you to , uh , steal it from the other kids , too . jack : do n't talk about him like that ! you 're making him seem like he 's the bad guy . he was my father ! he was the only one in the entire world who cared about me ! where were you ? blair : i was there , jack . i was there every single day . jack : except for starr 's latest drama or when sam got kidnapped -- again -- or when you decided to date another homicidal maniac . blair : do n't you dare talk to me like that , because i have been there for you . i have always been there for you ! god , how was i to know that something was even wrong , jack ? you never said a thing to me about it ! jack : i should n't have had to ! you should have asked . just face it , mom . i was always one kid too many for you . blair : that 's so not fair , jack , because i have loved all of my children equally . jack : yeah , right . blair : do you have any idea how lucky -- how lucky you are ? you have this huge family that loves you so much -- so much ! you know , i never had that growing up . i went from foster home -- jack : `` foster home to foster home . `` i remember . blair : well , maybe you do n't remember it like i remember it . 'cause i 'm telling you right now , it was no piece of cake . even the good homes had too many kids , so i know what it 's like to be lost in the shuffle . and i 'm telling you right now , that never happened to you . not one single day of your little life . and for you to sit there and you to tell that to me , that 's a cop - out ! because i 've been there for you ! i 've had your back ! i 've been beside you all the time because i love you , son . [ voice breaking ] i love you , and i 'm always gon na love you , and nothing is gon na change that ! do you hear me ? ! all right . i 'm gon na go now , and i 'm gon na talk -- i 'm gon na talk to téa , and just hopefully [ inhales deeply ] hopefully john , all that evidence , it just wo n't be as bad as we think it is . guard ! jack : mom . blair : what ? jack : what happened to shane 's mom , it -- it really was an accident . i did n't mean for her to get hurt . [ cell door opens ] blair : that 's -- that 's -- that 's good to know . [ cell door closes ] rex : i thought that you were dead . i thought that i 'd found you lying in a basement next to a broken generator that was leaking carbon monoxide . it was our wedding day . but instead of hearing you say `` i do , `` i heard some doctor telling me they `` did everything they could . `` and after that , i was in a pretty dark place . gigi : i 'm so sorry . rex : look -- no , it 's not your fault . i know that jack manning was responsible for your ... death . but he walked because victor lord jr . paid somebody to take the rap for him . stacy : who 's victor lord jr. ? rex : all right . um , short answer -- the psycho formerly known as todd manning . it 's a long story . i will tell you all about it on the plane . the point is that jack had his freedom because his dad paid somebody off , and i thought that the only way to get justice for you and the only way to keep shane safe was to have the same kind of power and money that jack 's family had , and i thought the only way to get that was to get clint 's money . and i was ready to do some pretty terrible stuff , but something stopped me . gigi : what ? rex : you . everywhere i turned , i kept seeing you . gigi : you saw me ? rex : yeah . as clear as you are sitting next to me right now . even now , i have no idea what it was . the point is , i 've wanted to do the right thing because of you , w - w - what you would have wanted me to do . gigi : so , even in a coma , i was still bossing you around . rex : i do n't care . you 're back now . i hope you keep bossing me around for the rest of my life . gigi : okay . well , then , here 's what 's gon na happen . first , you 're gon na kiss me . and when we 're gon na head home to our son . rex : yes , ma'am . shane : dad 's on his way home . i ca n't wait to see the look on his face when i tell him the news . natalie : he 's gon na be really proud of you . your mom , too . shane : i just wish she was still here . then i could make her proud by doing something else . natalie : did i ever tell you how your mom and i became such good friends ? shane : i do n't think so . natalie : it 's when i found out i was pregnant , and i was -- i was really scared . freaking out , actually . i did n't know who liam 's father was , and i did n't know what to do , and i did n't how it was going to affect the lives of everyone i loved . then your mom accidentally found out what i was going through , and she set me straight . shane : how ? natalie : she told me it was okay to be scared , it was okay not to know what to do , but what was n't okay was to sit back and do nothing , that i had to make decisions . shane : that sounds just like my mom . natalie : mm - hmm . and the most important thing that she said to me is , no matter what decisions i make , she would have my back . i think that your mom ... would see a lot of herself in you . shane : yeah ? natalie : yeah . yeah , definitely . trust me . i 'm a mother , too . john : you know , manning , this is a criminal investigation . often what you want and what you get are two different things . you of all people should -- blair : what 's going on here ? todd : he 'll tell you . i 'm gon na go see our son . blair : was that about the new evidence you have on jack ? how bad is it ? téa : bad . jack : what are you doing here ? todd : i just spoke with john mcbain . do you know what they have on you ? neela : i fell head over heels for jack . he helped me when i had no one else to turn to . i believed he was such a good person . rama : you do n't believe that anymore ? neela : i do n't know . i mean , after i met shane , rama , he was so sad because of what happened to his mother . shane begged me to help him , and i agreed . i told jack he could trust me . and i betrayed him . todd : there 's a tape , jack , of you confessing . jack : what ? that 's impossible ! todd : i heard it myself . neela : so , i recorded his confession , and i turned it in to the police . rama : you did the right thing , okay ? you should be proud , neela . think of all the good you were able to do for shane . neela : what about jack ? rama : you 're helping him take responsibility for his own actions . he should be held accountable for what he did . neela : it still feels so wrong . i mean , what jack did to shane 's mother was an accident . but how i hurt jack , it was deliberate . i set him up . todd : someone set you up . someone was trying to get you to talk . they were waiting with a tape recorder , and they got you to open up your mouth . jack : no , there 's no way . no one even knows what i 've done . todd : i heard the recording . someone got you to open up your trap . neela : how 's jack going to feel when he finds out that i was the one who got him arrested ? he 'll never speak to me again . todd : give me a name , jack . tell me who set you up , and i 'll deal with the son of a bitch . vimal : is everything all right ? neela : i 'm fine . vimal : neela , i - i owe you an apology . i - i may have overreacted before . neela : when you told me you 'd force me to marry someone i do n't love ? vimal : please understand that i 'm only trying to protect you . neela : vimal , i do n't need you to protect me . vimal : no , but i need to protect you because i love you . i -- do you have any idea what you mean to me ? rama : it 's true , you know . when we first got married , you were all he could talk about . `` my beautiful sister , how tall she 's getting . my beautiful sister , she 's doing so well at school . `` i got sick about hearing about you . vimal : i just -- i just hope one day you 'll understand why i 'm so strict with you . and -- and maybe if these charges against jack prove to be false , then we can have a discussion about it . but i do think it 's admirable that you 're being such a loyal friend . neela : i have to go . i have to get to the library to start an assignment for winter break . vimal : she hates me . rama : no , that 's not true . she just has other things on her mind . jack : i did n't mean for her to die . but she did ... because of me . [ recorder clicks ] john : i 'm not a lawyer , but there 's not a lot of gray area there . blair : [ sighs ] téa : hey . i 'm not gon na lie to you , blair . if that tape checks out , jack 's in big trouble . blair : but it was an accident . it was an accident . you heard him . he said he did n't mean for it to happen . téa : and they probably will not charge him as an adult , okay ? blair : you got to do something , téa , because i 've done everything . i do n't know what else to do here . téa : i 'm gon na do everything i can , all right ? i 'm gon na treat jack as if he were my own . we 're family . you ought to know that by now . blair : jack 's probably right . it was my fault . téa : what are you talking about ? blair : he says that i never showed him enough attention . téa : that 's bull and you know it . blair : okay , you know what ? it does n't make it any better or any easier what my son is going through . jack : i did n't tell anyone anything . todd : jack , i heard the recording myself . jack : then it must be fake . todd : look , you do n't -- you do n't like me , and that 's not important to me right now . you need me . but i ca n't help you , jack , unless you tell me the truth . jack : i am telling the truth ! i swear ! todd : why do n't you -- why do n't you calm down and think about it , okay ? i 'm gon na go upstairs , and your mom and i , we 're gon na get you out of here , okay ? guard ! jack : thanks ... for helping me . it really means a lot . [ cell door opens ] todd : jack manning , you are my son , and i will do anything for you . and let 's face it , you 're useless to me in there . you 're my slave labor at the sun . you got to get out , you got to get me coffee , go get me a chicken- salad sandwich . [ cell door closes ] jack : [ sighs ] natalie : honey ... your mom was proud of you every single day of your life . but i have to say , i think she would be especially proud of you today . shane : thanks , aunt natalie . natalie : all right , i 've got to go check on your grandpa , make sure he did n't eat the bacon . shane : [ chuckles ] [ sighs ] rex : shane ! shane : dad ! i 'm so glad you 're here . rex : me too . sorry it took so long . shane : it 's okay . you 're here now . ready for the big news ? rex : yeah , you bet , but i 've got some pretty big news for you , too . shane : i totally want to hear your news , but i have to go first . what i have to say is huge ! rex : well , my news is kind of -- shane : it 's about mom . rex : actually , my news is about mom , too . shane : well , whatever it is , it ca n't be as big as this . it 's about how jack killed her . rex : shane , jack did n't kill your mom . shane : no , you do n't understand . there 's proof now ! he confessed ! rex : no , no , no . t - that 's -- that 's not what i meant . jack did n't kill your mom ... because your mom 's not dead . shane : what ? rex : shane ... your mom is alive . shane : dad , what are you talking about ? gigi : [ sighs ] vimal : well , it finally happened . today is the official day i turn into my father . rama : [ laughs ] come on , vimal . you have a long way to go before you become that strict . vimal : yeah , i suppose . but the way i shot neela down , it just felt disturbingly familiar . rama : come on . you were n't that bad . vimal : still , i should have listened to what she had to say about the whole situation . but instead , i was just so worried about protecting her and , to be honest , about the awkward position her crush puts me in . i mean , the boy is my boss ' son . and he 's a killer . rama : it 's your job to protect her , okay ? it 's your job as a brother to keep neela safe , at least until she 's old enough to make her own decisions . vimal : yeah , but neela already thinks she 's old enough . rama : perhaps she is . vimal : and if i do n't like her decisions ? rama : well , i ca n't speak from experience , but all i can say is what my mother used to say . `` letting your children spread their wings is the hardest part of the job . `` and parenting is already the hardest job in the world . blair : [ sighs ] how 's jack ? todd : he 's hanging in there . i told him it 's all gon na be okay . i promised him that i 'd make it right . i promise you , too . i 'm gon na make this right . we 're not gon na lose our little boy . blair : [ sighs ] téa : i do n't blame you for not giving todd the name of the person who made that recording . john : i did n't think you would . téa : but i do have a problem with you keeping it from me . john : you 'll get it ... eventually . téa : oh , come on , detective . it 's all gon na come out in pretrial discovery anyway . why waste everyone 's time ? john : her name is neela patel . jack : the only person i talked to about shane 's mom was neela . but ... no . she would never do this to me . she could n't . [ cell door opens ] shane : mom ? gigi : yeah . yeah , baby . it 's me . shane : no . this is n't real . it ca n't be . rex : this is real . shane : no . mom 's dead . grandpa clint has her heart . this is aunt stacy . rex : no , shane . your aunt stacy 's the one who died . this is your mom . i promise . shane : [ breathing shakily ] [ sniffles ] mommy ?

[ scene_break ] mcbain : as you know , teams have been searching all night . this is the vehicle we 're looking for . plate information 's in front of you . it 's a rental . it was being used by dr. kevin collins . he 's also lucy coe 's husband . if it 's been dumped , neighboring jurisdictions have been notified . if you happen to come across the escapees , do n't be a hero . call it in , get backup , proceed with caution . escapee number 1 -- todd manning . he has the resources to potentially leave the country . escapee number 2 -- heather webber . she has a son in port charles . he has been notified . escapee number 3 -- lucy coe . according to her doctors , she still believes she 's a vampire slayer . stop laughing . it is believed that when she finds out alison barrington has been murdered , she will do whatever it takes to get to alison 's son , rafe , who 's locked up downstairs . [ scene_break ] johnny : heard you killed your mom . rafe : you heard wrong . that cop did it . johnny : which one ? rafe : john mcbain .

[ scene_break ] connie : come on . this is gold . [ gasps ] hey , cuz ! you see the front - page headline today ? `` inspired `` is an understatement . okay . i thought this one was pretty good , too . olivia : connie , that 's horrible . connie : i know . horrible sells papers . i still think i made the right call , though . olivia : you do realize that heather tried to kill me , right ? now she 's out there , running around , planning god - knows - what . connie : the cops will find her and throw her butt in jail , just like they 're doing to sonny 's daughter . [ scene_break ] sonny : this whole thing has been a nightmare for kristina . shawn : for you , too , i bet . sonny : i just do not like seeing my little girl in lockup . you know , when i walked into connie 's office , kristina had a baseball bat . she was in a mess , grieving over her boyfriend . i mean , she was just -- shawn : you try to talk to connie ? sonny : she ai n't backing away . i think i know why . connie and i , we got a little close , right ? shawn : hmm . sonny : so i think she 's pressing charges to drive me away . shawn : well , as i understand it , uh ... connie is the only witness to kristina 's assault . sonny : right . shawn : so , um ... you want me to make her disappear ? sonny : what are you suggesting ? shawn : look , a couple of months ago , you asked me to deliver connie . sonny : mm - hmm . shawn : i could do it again , maybe keep her under wraps till she decides to back off . you ca n't prosecute kristina without the only witness . sonny : ca n't do that . shawn : even with your daughter 's freedom on the line ? sonny : i know what -- look , i -- i can not have connie grabbed twice . shawn : yeah . you 're probably right , but ... want to tell me why ? [ scene_break ] olivia : hey . so , uh , since you brought up kristina -- connie : you know what i did ? i leaked the first chapter of my novel today . olivia : no , i did not see that . connie : oh , it 's so good , liv . it 's called `` love in maine , `` by connie falconeri . i 'm debuting chapter 2 next week and a third one the week after , just to give the audience a little taste of what 's to come . and then it hits the stores march 12th . i tell you , people are gon na get in line to buy this . olivia : i have no doubt the book is something great . connie : it 's not great . it 's amazing ! olivia : then i 'll be sure and congratulate molly davis . connie : nice , liv . thank you so much for your support . olivia : i 'm not here to argue and talk about what you leaked and what you write or did n't write -- connie : then what are you here to talk about ? olivia : what you 're doing to kristina . [ scene_break ] alexis : i 'm sorry , sweetheart . your father tried -- he did . he really did . he just was n't able to convince connie to let up on you . kristina : but i wo n't be in lockup indefinitely . you still think i can get bail , right ? sam : of course . alexis : i am going to do everything i can to convince the judge that you are clearly not a violent person . you lost your boyfriend . you were distraught , and you snapped . sam : yes . it 's gon na be okay . alexis : we 'll make sure of it . [ scene_break ] johnny : i ai n't judging , kid . i killed my grandfather . [ sighs ] and two other people . believe me when i say ... holding it in , keeping it from everybody , is worse punishment than prison . rafe : i did n't kill anyone . johnny : if that 's true , i hope you 're exonerated . in the case that it 's not , and you do n't have a history of past violence , then maybe you can find yourself a lawyer to work some sort of plea bargain . and , again , trust me -- officer : hey , zacchara . johnny : it 's better if you face what you did . officer : sentencing time . johnny : ca n't wait . officer : this guy 's gon na die in prison . so are you . johnny : go easy on him . give him my food .

[ scene_break ] heather : you know , if it were n't for me , you two would still be sitting at ferncliff . i think a little gratitude is in order . lucy : i tell you what i would be really grateful for is something to snack on . i am so very hungry ! you know , even those high - high - fructose , starchy , sugary meals at ferncliff sound really yummy right now . [ wrapper crinkling ] lucy : hey ! hey , hey , hey ! where 'd you get that ? where did you get it ? ! todd : i found it on the dock . lucy : well , give me that . can i have it ? thank you . lucy : oh , yum . todd : along with this . lucy : mmm . wait a minute . do you think this is gluten - free ? heather : i want half . lucy : no ! no , it 's mine ! get your own ! heather : todd , tell her to give me half . todd : give her half . lucy : no . i want to see the paper , though , please . i -- i just want to find out if kevin 's okay . could i just look at it for -- todd : look at this . this is libel , this is slander , and this is a horrible photograph ! connie falconeri calls me a stooge in my own newspaper ! heather : it 's not your newspaper since johnny ratted you out . you lost the paper and everything else , todd . remember ? [ scene_break ] starr : my dad escaped ferncliff with heather webber . michael : i 'm sorry you had to find out like this . starr : what is wrong with him ? ! i know i should n't be surprised that he would do anything to get out of going back to prison , but ... michael : i doubt your dad has the resources to get very far . starr : yeah , i guess . michael : unless ... starr : unless what ? michael : well , do you want him to get away ? starr : i 'm the reason my dad was being sent back to prison . remember ? because i would n't let him fake d.i.d . ? michael : i know . starr : so why do you think i would want him to be free ? michael : last night , before sundae - bar sex , you said you were feeling guilty about your dad being in lockup . starr : let 's look on the bright side . michael : there 's a bright side ? starr : at least elq 's problems are n't on the front page anymore . michael : well , i guess that is kind of good news . but the damage is already done . wonder if i need to wear a tie to the arraignment . starr : wait . i thought you were going to meet up with a.j . , try to salvage the company . michael : well , krissy needs me more . starr : i do n't think you need a tie . the shirt looks great . so , you 're gon na see sonny , huh ? michael : yeah , and i am dreading it . my dad keeps saying that he had nothing to do with the information about elq getting leaked , but the motive was there . he had a meeting with tracy . he was with connie in her office when she told us he was guilty . [ scene_break ] sonny : when i had you pick up connie to take her to the warehouse , you know , i was desperate . i would do anything to get through to kate . shawn : so what changed ? sonny : well , i mean , connie 's not this out - of - control symptom of mental illness . she 's a human being . she 's got feelings . shawn : feelings . sonny : confused and the whole thing . i do n't want to prey on that . shawn : you 've gone soft on her , man .

[ scene_break ] connie : oh , no , no , no , no . not you , too , liv . did sonny put you up to this ? olivia : sonny does n't even know i 'm here . he just happened to mention you being a bit of a hard - ass about kristina . connie : oh , i 'm sorry . the girl came at me with a baseball bat . what do you want me to do ? bake her cookies and take her shopping ? olivia : she 's hurting over trey , just like you . connie : i did n't take a baseball bat to someone 's head . olivia : neither did kristina . connie : not for lack of trying . she came in here intending to kill me ! olivia : can we cut the crap and talk about what 's really going on here ? you 're not trying to get back at kristina . you 're trying to get back at sonny , because he 's in love with kate and not you . [ scene_break ] todd : check it out . found me a disguise . heather : where 'd you get all that stuff ? todd : the wardrobe upstairs . full of clothes . lucy : oh , that would be nikolas cassadine , the owner . he 's so rich , i bet he has a separate wardrobe for every continent . todd : ta - ta , gov . off to sell some papes . heather : where do you think you 're going ? todd : like i 'd tell you . heather : well , if you must know , i 'm going to see my son . todd : oh , good . i 'm sure he 'd love that . good luck slaying mcbain . lucy : thanks . [ scene_break ] mcbain : so i talked to lucy 's husband . he told me that lucy , heather , and manning , all dressed as guards , were making their way out of the main entrance of ferncliff when he spotted lucy . apparently , at this point , he gets assaulted trying to talk her out of escaping when either heather or manning hit him over the head from behind . sam : and lucy just left him like that ? mcbain : i guess that 's how bad she wants to get to caleb . sam : but they 're saying that this caleb is the one who killed alison , but that does n't make any sense . i mean , her son did . that 's what makes sense . mcbain : yeah . i mean , i -- i found him kneeling over her body with the murder weapon in his hand . sam : and he 's still saying that he thinks that you did it ? mcbain : as far as i know . sam : but why ? why would he say that ? why would rafe accuse you ? [ scene_break ] rafe : are you allowed down here ? molly : no . uh , i snuck in . i needed to see you . rafe : why ? molly : to make sure you 're okay . rafe : my mom 's dead . molly : i know . i 'm so sorry . rafe : but ... ? molly : did you do it ? [ scene_break ] mcbain : thank you . sam : what 's that ? mcbain : yeah , print analysis from the murder weapon . sam : okay . i assume it has alison and rafe 's fingerprints on it . anyone else ? mcbain : a partial . sam : enough to get a hit from the database ? mcbain : possible one . sam : well ? who is it ? mcbain : that would be me . [ scene_break ] lucy : oh , my god ! alison , i 'm sorry . i am so sorry . i told livvie -- i warned livvie ! i told her caleb would kill alison to get to his son . heather : what ? whose son ? lucy : caleb . caleb seduced alison . heather : well , i hate to get technical with you , but if caleb 's a vampire , i do n't see how he could have fathered a child . lucy : he was n't -- he was n't wearing the ring . heather : now you 've lost me . lucy : the ring ! caleb 's ring ! when he does n't wear -- it does n't matter ! it does n't -- it does n't matter at all . all you need to know is that alison slept with caleb , caleb fathered her child , and all alison wanted to do was protect rafe -- to keep him away from caleb ! caleb must have found him . he must have found him . heather : it seems to me that ... well , it says right here that ... alison was killed by the kid . lucy : caleb murdered alison , and he 's a monster who 's gon na keep getting away with murder , because he 's convinced the police that he 's one of them ! [ scene_break ] sam : it 's a coincidence . that 's all . mcbain : yeah , but lucy was convinced -- right ? that i was this caleb , and she was afraid that caleb was gon na hurt alison . now alison 's dead , and her son swears she saw me kill her . sam : her son is lying , obviously . mcbain : add to that the print that might be mine . sam : what are you saying ? mcbain : maybe rafe 's telling the truth . [ scene_break ] rafe : i did not kill my mom . molly : but what about what you said at lunch , how life might be better if she was n't around ? rafe : and so , from there , you just jumped to me stabbing her ? molly : well , they 're saying they caught you holding the weapon . rafe : yeah , not because i stabbed my own mom with it . i mean , yeah , i hated being dragged all over the place , but i loved her . okay ? i would never do that to her . molly : neither would john mcbain . rafe : i saw him do it . yeah , maybe you do n't know me like you know him . i 'm just this stranger you decided to be nice to . okay , i get that . i do . but i swear , i would 've never hurt her like that . you have to believe me . [ scene_break ] connie : grab your coat . here 's the door . olivia : lis -- listen to me . okay ? whatever set of circumstances got us to this place right now , you are still my cousin , and i really do care what happens to you . that 's why i came to see you after trey -- that is why i 'm here talking to you right now . okay ? i just feel like if you could take a step back from the situation , you could see a much bigger picture . okay ? connie : what is the bigger picture ? olivia : kristina really did love trey . connie : and i did n't ? olivia : no , no ! just the opposite . honey , that is -- that is my point . you 're both hurting . you 're both lashing out . connie : because i 'm angry ! olivia : but not at kristina ! you 're angry at yourself ! now you think about it , connie . think about it . if you put kristina in jail , is that gon na change anything ? is it gon na make it so that you love trey any better when he was alive ? is it gon na make it so that you did n't leave him to die when -- connie : shut up , liv ! olivia : is it gon na solve anything ? is it gon na make the pain go away ? honey ... putting kristina in jail will ruin her life , and it 'll make sonny hate you for the rest of yours . connie : what am i supposed to do ? olivia : honor your son . be a bigger person than the one that i 'm seeing right now , okay ? please . deal with your feelings for sonny . let that poor girl go . [ scene_break ] sonny : what 're you talking about i 've gone soft on connie ? i do n't want to see kate get hurt . that 's all . shawn : i get it , i get it . but , um ... she 's not kate . she 's connie . and i 'm starting to see your feelings change . do you have a thing for her or something , man ? what 's going on ? alexis : any word from connie ? shawn : we were just talking about her . sonny : no word yet . alexis : well , let 's pray for something good , because from the look of the way the paperwork 's going , it 's not going great for our daughter . [ scene_break ] johnny : i do n't blame you for going after connie . to be honest , i 've dreamt of doing it myself many times . kristina : yeah . johnny : you 're a good kid , kristina . kristina : i 'm not . i wanted to kill connie . i wanted her dead with all my heart . but you -- you never meant to kill starr 's family .

[ sighs ] [ knock on door ] starr : michael ? do n't have your key with you ? dad ? todd : do n't call the cops . just need to talk to you one last time . [ scene_break ] lucy : i was right . everybody was writing me off as being absolutely crazy , but everything i have predicted has come true ! alison is dead . and rafe 's in a cell , accused of murder . he 's vulnerable to whatever caleb has planned for him , which i have no idea . he 's probably gon na come and ... steal him away . heather : but if caleb is rafe 's father , then he probably would n't do anything to hurt him . rafe is in no danger . lucy : no -- no danger ? his soul is in danger ! i do n't know what caleb wants to do with him ! heather : right . who knows ? caleb might want to turn him into a vampire or something . lucy : i do n't care if you believe me or not , okay ? just shut up ! because this threat happens to be real . and now rafe is in there , and he does n't even know who his father is . he has absolutely no idea , and it would destroy him . he ca n't ever know . this is a disaster . heather : but you think mcbain is really caleb the vampire . lucy : yes ! yes , he is ! he is ! heather : well , then he 's probably very busy doing vampirish things . you know , he 's distracted . he 's got a lot on his mind . too busy to come and look for us . that 's good . lucy : nothing about this is good . i got to go to rafe . heather : no , no , no ! you 're not going anywhere . [ scene_break ] sam : how could you think that alison 's son was telling the truth ? mcbain : think about it , sam . lucy was convinced that i 'm this guy caleb and so was alison . sam : yeah , they also think you 're a vampire . mcbain : forget about the whole vampire thing for now , all right ? alison tried to warn you this guy caleb was dangerous . now rafe swears he saw me or someone that looks like me kill his mother . sam : okay . so , what ? you think there really is a caleb ? mcbain : it 's beginning to look more and more like it . sam : yeah ? okay . well , what about the fingerprints ?

[ scene_break ] sam : it 's a coincidence . that 's all . mcbain : yeah , but lucy was convinced -- right ? that i was this caleb , and she was afraid that caleb was gon na hurt alison . now alison 's dead , and her son swears she saw me kill her . sam : her son is lying , obviously . mcbain : add to that the print that might be mine . sam : what are you saying ? mcbain : maybe rafe 's telling the truth .

[ clears throat ] and the truth is i 've done some horrible things , terrible things , and i own every single one of them . and if connor grows up and he ends up hating me , that 's gon na be horrible , but it 's something i 'm gon na have to deal with . i 'll have to live with that . but , baby , what i ca n't live with is connor hating you . nick : how would i know anything about chelsea disappearing ? i just heard about this five minutes ago . dylan : come on , man . i found the passageway . nick : what are you talking about ? dylan : the one that leads from this place to where you used to live . kevin : you did n't know about it ? dylan : you recently visited adam in prison , right ? nick : yeah . so ? dylan : what did you guys talk about ? nick : we talked about a lot of stuff . dylan : oh , come on , nick . if you helped them , now 's the time to tell me . nick : are you seriously asking me this right now ? dylan : just answer the question . dylan : he wanted me to look out for his son . he knows he 's facing a life in prison , so he wants to make sure his family 's okay . is that okay with you , dylan ? phyllis : where 's summer ? jack : she 's in her room . she 's okay . are you okay ? i tried to reach you . why did n't you pick up your phone ? phyllis : jack , please , let 's just focus on summer . summer : mom ? phyllis : come here , baby . come here . summer : mom , i 'm so sorry . phyllis : no , no . stop . stop it with that . i do n't need any apologies . just tell me you 're okay . summer : yeah , i 'm okay . i 'm okay now , thanks to jack . jack : luca lost it . phyllis : did he hurt you ? summer : i 'm fine . i 'm fine . phyllis : where 's luca now ? jack : he 's in police custody . summer : he confessed . i confronted him , and he admitted that he was behind all of the sabotage , and i tried to get him to turn himself in , but ... he got furious , and he ... phyllis : then what ? what -- what did he do to you ? summer : he tried to grab the phone out of my hand . and that 's when jack walked in . and he panicked and he grabbed me and he tried to escape . but jack was amazing . phyllis : thank you . you saved my daughter . jack : well , i do n't get all the credit . summer was very brave , and she stayed calm and convinced luca to let her go . summer : i - i do n't know what i would have done if you were n't here , jack . i 'm so lucky to have him here . phyllis : come here . billy : should n't you be planning a bank heist or something ? colin : grab a glass and join me . billy : no , thank you . where 's my mother ? colin : soaking in a bath . billy : well , hopefully she hid the jewels before she got in . colin : you do n't much like having me around , do you ? billy : oh , you 're very perceptive , colin . colin : you know , your animosity is somewhat misplaced . i 'm probably the only person who can help you with your problem . billy : oh , i have a problem ? colin : a certain persistent parent . you see , i can probably get her away to chicago . and -- and i 'm sure that would appeal to you . billy : you sound sure about yourself . colin : that 's what i do , my boy . a certain philosophy that 's served me well . you see , i - i see a need , and then i try to fill it . for a price , of course . phyllis : so , you left the party . jack : and came straight here to check on summer . i knew you were worried about her . phyllis : oh , come on . you were worried i was gon na rush over here and put a beat down on luca . jack : yeah , there was that , too . phyllis : hey . what 's on your mind ? summer : i should call the minister , let him know that the wedding 's off . phyllis : oh , honey , we can take care of all that . jack : yeah . summer : no , i kind of want to . it 'll give me closure , correcting a mistake . you know , i 've made so many mistakes lately , starting with getting involved with luca in the first place , and then just refusing to listen to anybody when they try to let me see the truth about him . especially you , mom . i mean , i have had the worst luck with guys . i 'm starting to think i should swear them off for a while , maybe for good . phyllis : no . you do n't mean that . summer : [ scoffs ] i really do . and do not try to sell me on love . okay , i have been married , cheated on ... widowed . i know the pros and the cons all too well . love -- it just -- it gets your heart racing and just fills your head with hope and desire all just to make you fall for the wrong guy . billy : i 'm genuinely curious . colin : about my methods ? billy : no . about your offer . [ sighs ] you say that you fill a need . what need would that be , colin ? colin : oh . so , you do n't mind answering to your mother . well , pardon me . i misunderstood . billy : no , i just do n't think it 's worth being in your debt to take my mother out of the equation . unless , of course , there 's something you 're not saying . colin : i can understand your being a little , um , wary , but look upon this a - as a business arrangement . i simply need a little more information to be a more effective partner . billy : [ chuckles ] partner ? or blackmailer ? there 's nothing to see here , colin , so why do n't you move along ? colin : you sure you can get by without my help ? jill : so , what are you two talking about ? billy : a fishing expedition in a dry lake bed . colin : [ chuckles ] nick : why would adam ask me to look out for his son if he was planning to run off with him ? does that make sense to you ? kevin : he 's right . dylan : yeah , i know he is . nick : then do you believe me ? dylan : [ sighs ] yeah , of course i believe you . chloe : [ scoffs ] do n't look at me . i did n't know anything about it . dylan : i got to say i 'm sorry . i should n't have jumped all over you . okay ? to be honest , i 'm just -- i 'm just really frustrated , because i put my job on the line to clear adam 's name , and he took off . and i just -- i look like an idiot . kevin : okay . how this happened is the last thing that matters right now . there 's a statewide dragnet out there . what we 're all really worried about is what happens when they find them . chloe : i mean , why did chelsea do this ? she has no idea how much danger she 's in . chelsea : it was just a nightmare . you were n't eating , you were n't sleeping , you could n't bear the thought of not seeing me or connor ever again . it was just a bad nightmare , but now it 's over because i 'm here . i 'm here , and your son is here with you in the other room . adam : i just feel like i 'm doing the same thing to my son that my father did to me . chelsea : no . you could never hurt connor the way victor has hurt you . adam : taking him on the run like that ? i mean , that 's sort of taking his life away , his freedom , at least , you know ? he could grow up to hate me . chelsea : no . he will never grow up to hate you . because there will not be a little boy more loved on the planet than that little boy in there , okay ? he 's gon na be loved by both of his parents so much . listen to me . you ended up in prison because victor is a vengeful person . he framed you for really ugly reasons , but the decisions we 're making for him right now -- those decisions just come from a good place , a place of -- of pure love . adam : you 're giving up so much . chelsea : if i get to look across the breakfast table every morning and see you , if the three of us get to have each other 's backs unconditionally for the rest of our lives , that 's all i 've ever wanted . please do n't send me away . adam : you know , sometimes , you make me feel like a fool , because here i thought i could n't love you any more than i already did , and you know what ? i do . i love you . dylan : i 'm concerned for chelsea . i wish i could promise you that she 's gon na be safe , but i ca n't . chloe : she 's not a fugitive . okay , she just wants to be with her husband . i 'm gon na go check on bella . kevin : i 'll go with you . dylan : you know , the thing that gets me about this -- if adam disappears , so does my chance at nailing victor . nick : well , maybe what matters more than making my dad pay is giving adam the life he had back before all this started . adam 's finally got a shot to take back what was stolen from him -- his family , his life -- and you can make that happen . dylan : yeah , only if he never gets caught . nick : well , maybe you should n't be so set on trying to find him . you can do this , dylan . all you have to do is look the other way . [ cell phone rings ] jill : so , you 're back , honey . billy : just here to check on the kids . colin : um , billy had something he wanted to discuss with you . jill : oh , okay . well , it 's probably about brash and sassy ! would you mind giving us the room for a few minutes ? billy : there 's no need . i 'm not gon na stick around . colin : but i - i thought that -- billy : just here to check on the kids . colin : well , i thought there was a reason -- billy : there 's no other reason . jill : oh , my god . what did you do ? you grilled him , did n't you ? you did n't believe me before . colin : i apologize for not trusting you . if it makes any difference , i 'm glad you were telling the truth . [ sighs ] at least i know that you were n't holding anything over billy 's head . jill : i told you i was n't . colin : no , i - i only just realized how carefully worded your earlier denial was . masterful piece of wordplay . jill : meaning ? colin : well , now i know you 're holding something over someone . i wonder who it is . summer : do you guys think you could stay the night ? jack : absolutely . yes . summer : okay . it makes me feel a lot better knowing that i 'm gon na wake up to some friendly faces . thank you . love you . jack : love you . summer : i love you . phyllis : i love you , too , honey . summer : do you know what dad said to me ? he said that somewhere out there , there 's a guy waiting to fall in love with me , and if i 'm ever as in love as you guys are , i 'll know that he 's right . phyllis : i am grateful to you that you took such good care of her . jack : okay . you know where i was . now , where were you ? i must have left a dozen messages for you . phyllis : you know , my phone was on silent . i was so preoccupied with work , i was n't paying attention to my alerts . [ cell phone rings ] i guess it is n't on silent anymore , though . jack : who is it ? phyllis : i 've been waiting for this call from harris in legal . it 's about the copyright case . jack : okay . well , you take that call . i 'll get the spare room ready . phyllis : thanks . hey . i ca n't talk right now . billy : we have unfinished business . phyllis : not tonight . summer needs me . billy : phyllis , we can not let my mother -- phyllis : not now . it 's just gon na have to wait , billy . adam : did you hear that ? chelsea : hear what ? dylan : do n't move . you 're both under arrest . adam : whoa , whoa , whoa . hold on a second . dylan : do n't move ! adam : what are you doing ? let her go ! dylan , let her go ! chelsea : adam ! [ gasps ] adam : chelsea , you all right ? chelsea : yeah , i 'm fine . i - i thought i , uh , heard connor , but ... just go -- go back to sleep . we have a big day tomorrow . adam : i love you . chelsea : i love you , too . kevin : hey . are you okay ? chloe : sure . why ? kevin : well , the look on your face when nick told dylan he should let adam go -- i thought you were gon na pass out . chloe : well , i 'm worried about my best friend . the way she hugged me before she went upstairs . kevin : it was a goodbye hug . chloe : yeah , but i did n't know that that 's what it was at the time . you know , i get that she went with adam , but -- i want her to be happy , but is this really good for chelsea ? nick : any progress ? dylan : do n't break out the confetti just yet . nick : look , dylan , you can right a serious wrong here . all you have to do is look away . dylan : i 'll be the first to admit that adam got a raw deal . his priority should be coming back here and clearing his name . nick : what would you do if you were him ? right now , his name does n't mean anything . the only thing that matters is his family and freedom . and his best chance at keeping all those things is you . [ next_on ] cane : we did what you should have done a long time ago . lily : we went to see your mother . kevin : if he is off the grid forever , chloe and bella can live their lives . mariah : here ? kevin : yes , here . sharon : nick was right . let them go . | adam and chelsea spend a romantic evening together despite the situation they are in . chelsea assures him that she will stand by him . dylan asks nick why he came to see chelsea and why he visited adam in prison . jack stands by summer after luca is arrested . phyllis tells billy all about jill blackmailing her to stay with jack . colin asks jill why she is really back in genoa city and what she is holding over someone 's head . | <s>[INST] tognoni : i was on the show , believe it or not , for one month before i had one line . i was in a coma , and then we see phyllis making her way back to genoa city . shortly after the coma , phyllis has a mission to come to destroy and crash nick and sharon 's wedding . i just remember walking down that aisle and then having to fall . summer : mom ! mom ! tognoni : i just walked away the next day with the nastiest bruise , but it was worth it . it was absolutely worth it . burton : dylan was a veteran and had a really interesting backstory . dylan : shh , shh , shh , shh . it 's okay . no one 's gon na hurt you . come on . burton : and then over time , dylan started to learn that he had really important family connections in genoa city . nikki : dylan is my son ! victor : who 's that ? burton : some of my favorite scenes were after paul got shot . he needed a liver transplant to live . dylan was the only match , and dylan was very insistent that this surgery would take place . so essentially dylan gave part of his liver to somebody he did n't even know was his father yet . case : my fabulous friend melody thomas scott . love working with her and bickering with her . that 's our relationship really on the show , and we love it . sharon : nikki , i need you . nikki : sharon , what you need is a good psychiatrist . sharon : i am not crazy . nikki : oh , yeah ? then what are we doing down here ? sharon : bessie , would you like some hay ? nikki : shut your mouth ! sharon : [ screaming ] when something 's meant to be , nothing can stop it . case : sharon and nick are romeo and juliet together , and the interference from nick 's family has been just as much a part of creating nick and sharon . but sharon 's through line has n't changed in all the years . she 's looking for love . tognoni : 11,000 episodes is something extraordinary . burton : it 's just an honor to be a part of the show . case : we all know that we 're here because of you . tognoni : and we look forward to keep on doing it . burton : just keep watching , 'cause it 's gon na be good . case : thank you for celebrating 11,000 episodes with us . burton : now join us for another episode ... tognoni : ... of `` young and the restless . `` jack : call me if you see her or hear from her . thank you . summer : hey . is mom on her way ?

summer : yeah . nick : where 's phyllis ? she needs to be here . did you try the office ? jack : i 've tried everywhere . billy : my mother ? she 's the one that forced you to walk away ? phyllis : yeah . your mother knows all about us . she knows all about the affair , and she is not happy at all . how long has she known , phyllis ?

[ sighs ] chelsea : even if . adam : what about -- chelsea : adam -- adam : what about when he discovers the internet ? he 's gon na see my face , articles , stories about these horrible things that i 've done . what do we do when he has to come to terms with the fact that his parents have been lying to him his entire life ? chelsea : is that your biggest fear ? adam : [ chuckles ] my biggest fear . you know , when i was in , um , prison , i had this nightmare . connor was an adult , and he hated me , said i ruined his life . [ clears throat ] and the truth is i 've done some horrible things , terrible things , and i own every single one of them . and if connor grows up and he ends up hating me , that 's gon na be horrible , but it 's something i 'm gon na have to deal with . i 'll have to live with that . but , baby , what i ca n't live with is connor hating you . nick : how would i know anything about chelsea disappearing ? i just heard about this five minutes ago . dylan : come on , man . i found the passageway . nick : what are you talking about ? dylan : the one that leads from this place to where you used to live . kevin : you did n't know about it ? dylan : you recently visited adam in prison , right ? nick : yeah . so ? dylan : what did you guys talk about ? nick : we talked about a lot of stuff . dylan : oh , come on , nick . if you helped them , now 's the time to tell me . nick : are you seriously asking me this right now ? dylan : just answer the question . dylan : he wanted me to look out for his son . he knows he 's facing a life in prison , so he wants to make sure his family 's okay . is that okay with you , dylan ? phyllis : where 's summer ? jack : she 's in her room . she 's okay . are you okay ? i tried to reach you . why did n't you pick up your phone ? phyllis : jack , please , let 's just focus on summer . summer : mom ? phyllis : come here , baby . come here . summer : mom , i 'm so sorry . phyllis : no , no . stop . stop it with that . i do n't need any apologies . just tell me you 're okay . summer : yeah , i 'm okay . i 'm okay now , thanks to jack . jack : luca lost it . phyllis : did he hurt you ? summer : i 'm fine . i 'm fine . phyllis : where 's luca now ? jack : he 's in police custody . summer : he confessed . i confronted him , and he admitted that he was behind all of the sabotage , and i tried to get him to turn himself in , but ... he got furious , and he ... phyllis : then what ? what -- what did he do to you ? summer : he tried to grab the phone out of my hand . and that 's when jack walked in . and he panicked and he grabbed me and he tried to escape . but jack was amazing . phyllis : thank you . you saved my daughter . jack : well , i do n't get all the credit . summer was very brave , and she stayed calm and convinced luca to let her go . summer : i - i do n't know what i would have done if you were n't here , jack . i 'm so lucky to have him here . phyllis : come here . billy : should n't you be planning a bank heist or something ? colin : grab a glass and join me . billy : no , thank you . where 's my mother ? colin : soaking in a bath . billy : well , hopefully she hid the jewels before she got in . colin : you do n't much like having me around , do you ? billy : oh , you 're very perceptive , colin . colin : you know , your animosity is somewhat misplaced . i 'm probably the only person who can help you with your problem . billy : oh , i have a problem ? colin : a certain persistent parent . you see , i can probably get her away to chicago . and -- and i 'm sure that would appeal to you . billy : you sound sure about yourself . colin : that 's what i do , my boy . a certain philosophy that 's served me well . you see , i - i see a need , and then i try to fill it . for a price , of course . phyllis : so , you left the party . jack : and came straight here to check on summer . i knew you were worried about her . phyllis : oh , come on . you were worried i was gon na rush over here and put a beat down on luca . jack : yeah , there was that , too . phyllis : hey . what 's on your mind ? summer : i should call the minister , let him know that the wedding 's off . phyllis : oh , honey , we can take care of all that . jack : yeah . summer : no , i kind of want to . it 'll give me closure , correcting a mistake . you know , i 've made so many mistakes lately , starting with getting involved with luca in the first place , and then just refusing to listen to anybody when they try to let me see the truth about him . especially you , mom . i mean , i have had the worst luck with guys . i 'm starting to think i should swear them off for a while , maybe for good . phyllis : no . you do n't mean that . summer : [ scoffs ] i really do . and do not try to sell me on love . okay , i have been married , cheated on ... widowed . i know the pros and the cons all too well . love -- it just -- it gets your heart racing and just fills your head with hope and desire all just to make you fall for the wrong guy . billy : i 'm genuinely curious . colin : about my methods ? billy : no . about your offer . [ sighs ] you say that you fill a need . what need would that be , colin ? colin : oh . so , you do n't mind answering to your mother . well , pardon me . i misunderstood . billy : no , i just do n't think it 's worth being in your debt to take my mother out of the equation . unless , of course , there 's something you 're not saying . colin : i can understand your being a little , um , wary , but look upon this a - as a business arrangement . i simply need a little more information to be a more effective partner . billy : [ chuckles ] partner ? or blackmailer ? there 's nothing to see here , colin , so why do n't you move along ? colin : you sure you can get by without my help ? jill : so , what are you two talking about ? billy : a fishing expedition in a dry lake bed . colin : [ chuckles ] nick : why would adam ask me to look out for his son if he was planning to run off with him ? does that make sense to you ? kevin : he 's right . dylan : yeah , i know he is . nick : then do you believe me ? dylan : [ sighs ] yeah , of course i believe you . chloe : [ scoffs ] do n't look at me . i did n't know anything about it . dylan : i got to say i 'm sorry . i should n't have jumped all over you . okay ? to be honest , i 'm just -- i 'm just really frustrated , because i put my job on the line to clear adam 's name , and he took off . and i just -- i look like an idiot . kevin : okay . how this happened is the last thing that matters right now . there 's a statewide dragnet out there . what we 're all really worried about is what happens when they find them . chloe : i mean , why did chelsea do this ? she has no idea how much danger she 's in . chelsea : it was just a nightmare . you were n't eating , you were n't sleeping , you could n't bear the thought of not seeing me or connor ever again . it was just a bad nightmare , but now it 's over because i 'm here . i 'm here , and your son is here with you in the other room . adam : i just feel like i 'm doing the same thing to my son that my father did to me . chelsea : no . you could never hurt connor the way victor has hurt you . adam : taking him on the run like that ? i mean , that 's sort of taking his life away , his freedom , at least , you know ? he could grow up to hate me . chelsea : no . he will never grow up to hate you . because there will not be a little boy more loved on the planet than that little boy in there , okay ? he 's gon na be loved by both of his parents so much . listen to me . you ended up in prison because victor is a vengeful person . he framed you for really ugly reasons , but the decisions we 're making for him right now -- those decisions just come from a good place , a place of -- of pure love . adam : you 're giving up so much . chelsea : if i get to look across the breakfast table every morning and see you , if the three of us get to have each other 's backs unconditionally for the rest of our lives , that 's all i 've ever wanted . please do n't send me away . adam : you know , sometimes , you make me feel like a fool , because here i thought i could n't love you any more than i already did , and you know what ? i do . i love you . dylan : i 'm concerned for chelsea . i wish i could promise you that she 's gon na be safe , but i ca n't . chloe : she 's not a fugitive . okay , she just wants to be with her husband . i 'm gon na go check on bella . kevin : i 'll go with you . dylan : you know , the thing that gets me about this -- if adam disappears , so does my chance at nailing victor . nick : well , maybe what matters more than making my dad pay is giving adam the life he had back before all this started . adam 's finally got a shot to take back what was stolen from him -- his family , his life -- and you can make that happen . dylan : yeah , only if he never gets caught . nick : well , maybe you should n't be so set on trying to find him . you can do this , dylan . all you have to do is look the other way . [ cell phone rings ] jill : so , you 're back , honey . billy : just here to check on the kids . colin : um , billy had something he wanted to discuss with you . jill : oh , okay . well , it 's probably about brash and sassy ! would you mind giving us the room for a few minutes ? billy : there 's no need . i 'm not gon na stick around . colin : but i - i thought that -- billy : just here to check on the kids . colin : well , i thought there was a reason -- billy : there 's no other reason . jill : oh , my god . what did you do ? you grilled him , did n't you ? you did n't believe me before . colin : i apologize for not trusting you . if it makes any difference , i 'm glad you were telling the truth . [ sighs ] at least i know that you were n't holding anything over billy 's head . jill : i told you i was n't . colin : no , i - i only just realized how carefully worded your earlier denial was . masterful piece of wordplay . jill : meaning ? colin : well , now i know you 're holding something over someone . i wonder who it is . summer : do you guys think you could stay the night ? jack : absolutely . yes . summer : okay . it makes me feel a lot better knowing that i 'm gon na wake up to some friendly faces . thank you . love you . jack : love you . summer : i love you . phyllis : i love you , too , honey . summer : do you know what dad said to me ? he said that somewhere out there , there 's a guy waiting to fall in love with me , and if i 'm ever as in love as you guys are , i 'll know that he 's right . phyllis : i am grateful to you that you took such good care of her . jack : okay . you know where i was . now , where were you ? i must have left a dozen messages for you . phyllis : you know , my phone was on silent . i was so preoccupied with work , i was n't paying attention to my alerts .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : nikolas , you have to tell the police it was a mutual argument that got out of control . hayden : why would he protect the man who wants -- who wanted to kill him ? elizabeth : jason was only reacting to what the three of us have done to him . hayden : excuse me , the three of us ? you 're the one who insisted on keeping this secret so you could have jason to yourself . nikolas kept the secret for you . he has played this your way right down the line , and he nearly died as a result . [ scene_break ] jason : sam had overheard something that jake told danny . she put the pieces together , and i walked in on her confronting elizabeth . and i immediately sided with elizabeth . spinelli : i -- i mean , you were no doubt caught off - guard . jason : [ sighs ] more than that . you see , i ... i assumed that sam had an agenda . i thought that elizabeth was honest . i thought she was telling the truth , and i had it backward . sam was honest . she wanted me to know the truth . and how did i repay her ? i was brutally unfair to her . spinelli : i - i 'm sure that sam has already forgiven you . i mean , she knows the ... crazy circumstances that you 've been dealing with . jason : yeah , she does , but ... i just feel horrible about how i treated her . the whole year that i lived here , not knowing who i was , she would tell me about jason morgan , how much she loved him . she told me that she accepted his death and that she had moved on with her life . you know ... i could tell she was still grieving , and i knew some part of her always would . spinelli : but happily , that 's no longer the case , because you 've been restored to her . jason : no , i have n't . i 'm not the husband that she loved . we did n't share a life like this . i do n't know who i am , man . and frankly , i do n't know if that guy 's ever gon na come back . [ scene_break ] michael : you told me that we did n't know each other well enough to make a lifetime commitment , but it turns out , you know , you were right , sabrina . i do n't know you ! and you did n't trust me enough to tell me that you might be pregnant by carlos . sabrina : i made a mistake , michael . which led to another and another , okay . so now you know that carlos is this child 's biological father . but , look , you said it yourself . it 's love , michael , it 's love . that 's what makes a family -- not biology . c - can you give your love to this child ? so we can raise it together ? [ scene_break ] paul : [ scoffs ] y - you can pretend to be indifferent , but we both know better . we 've enjoyed each other these last few months . i do n't want to lose your friendship . tracy : [ laughs ] oh , i see . we 're friends now . paul : we can be . if you 'd just give me another chance . tracy ... we have spent the better part of two decades ignoring each other 's existence . i , for one ... ... do not want to go back there . [ sighs ] please forgive me . tracy : [ inhales sharply ] you 're right , i should . [ scene_break ] sam : so , this whole time , robin was being held captive ? patrick : she did n't want to leave me and emma . sam : i am so sorry . that 's horrible . patrick : believe me , i 'm the one that 's sorry . i was so sorry being hurt and angry that i did n't -- did n't bother to look closer . i just accepted weekly phone calls or skype calls with emma , and i did n't try to engage with robin myself . i did n't try to find out more . i did n't try , and ... i should have done more , sam . sam : i do n't know , patrick . like , why did n't i see , except for his face , that jake was exactly like jason ? i could n't because i did n't have all the information . and neither did you . so instead of beating yourself up for not being psychic , you should give yourself credit for figuring it out and rescuing robin in time . patrick : speaking of credit , i think i , uh , i owe you a little credit . sam : oh . [ chuckles ] i do n't think so . patrick : no , really . i 'm not exactly proud of the way that i handled the situation between you and jason , but our break - up is what led me to take emma to go to paris to try and find robin . and that 's where we realized what was really going on . so ... robin 's rescue is actually attributed to you holding on to your feelings for jason . [ scene_break ] spinelli : with all due respect , there 's no question of if jason morgan comes back . he -- you -- are standing right in front of me . jason : jason morgan is not some stranger i can hide from because he is me . spinelli : a most perceptive insight . jason : i guess so . it 's not mine . it 's carly 's . you know what , th - that 's kind of the problem . everybody around here -- they know me better than i know myself . so when i do something that just shocks the hell out of me and nobody else blinks an eye , it kind of freaks me out . spinelli : i assume you 're talking about your altercation with nikolas ? jason : a couple of days ago , i went after him at the floating rib . it was n't much of a fight . i just -- i snapped , and it was just ... automatic . a couple of guys pulled me off of him , and frankly , i was grateful because what good does it do for me to beat the hell out of nik ? it does n't give me my time back that i lost . it does n't lessen everybody else 's grieving -- not yours , not sam 's . so when i saw him on the terrace , i did , i tried to walk away . but he stopped me . spinelli : so nikolas was the aggressor ? jason : he hit me . then , like i said , everything 's just automatic . spinelli : i 'm sorry , having been soundly beaten by you a brief time before , i mean , he clearly knew what he was getting into . jason : this is what i 'm talking about with you . i mean , every time , you give me the benefit of the doubt because i 'm jason ? what have i done to deserve this loyalty ? spinelli : well , allow me to explain . you were -- you were my best friend . and my hero . instead of talking about what anyone owes jason , why do n't we talk about what you owe nikolas ? [ scene_break ] hayden : how about a little support ? how about you march your holier - than - thou butt down to the police station and tell them that jason has made repeated threats against nikolas and that he finally acted on those threats when he tried to kill him the night of the gala . elizabeth : nikolas , please . please , tell the police you fell by accident , and get hayden to back your story . hayden : no ! jason tried to beat nikolas to death twice in a matter of days . he 's dangerous , and he needs to be locked up . elizabeth : excuse me , is n't nikolas paying your bills ? is n't he giving you a place to live ? i think you 'll do exactly what he tells you . hayden : i 'm trying to protect nikolas . you only care about protecting the guy who wants him dead . elizabeth : you have no idea what 's at stake here . or -- or the history between us . nikolas , i -- i am so sorry i did n't listen to you back in may . i know i 'm the one who set all of this in motion . please , you just have to help me stop this before somebody else gets hurt . hayden : you really want jason to get away with this ? elizabeth : i just want this to be over ! and it can be ... if you make the right decision . [ monitors beeping ] [ door closes ] hayden : i do n't care how much history you share with that witch . she 's manipulating you , and i wo n't stand for it . [ scene_break ] robin : elizabeth . elizabeth : robin ! robin : hi . elizabeth : hi ! what are you doing here ? i thought you were in paris . robin : it 's complicated . do you have a moment ? elizabeth : yeah , of course . robin : well , first and foremost , i just wanted to tell you i 'm so happy for you that you got jake back . and just how unspeakably cruel what helena did to you . elizabeth : yeah , i -- thank you . i try not to dwell on it . the important thing is that we 've got jake back . robin : you and jason . patrick told me that you were engaged . elizabeth : yeah . uh , not -- not anymore . robin : does that mean ... elizabeth : jason broke our engagement when he found out i knew who he was and lied about it . robin : oh . well , why did you do that ? i mean , how ... how could you do that to jason ? [ scene_break ] sabrina : this may be too little , too late ... but i love you , michael . michael : [ sniffles ] you know , i ... i thought this was what i wanted . i did . i thought that , you know , we could give our child a happy family . sabrina : are you sure we ca n't still do that ? michael : i 'm not sure of anything anymore , sabrina , except for that you lied to me about the baby , not once , but over and over again . now , i - i could pretend to be okay with that , but you know what , i 'd be lying , too . and that is not the kind of life you should want for your child . [ scene_break ] anna : so , let 's just take everything step by step . one -- we 're reasonably certain now that carlos is still alive . i found that medal , and it has proof of his dna on it . so one of two things happened -- either he miraculously survived four bullets to the chest , or more likely , he was part of a set - up engineered by sloane to manipulate me . mac : and we know from ame gallagher that it was sloane 's body that was pulled from the harbor , shot twice at close range . anna : and paul pushed to have that body misidentified as carlos . mac : and he wanted the remains cremated to avoid a second autopsy . anna : sloane was in possession of paul 's cell number . and i got a text message from sloane 's phone after he was already dead . mac : so what 's the common denominator ? anna : our esteemed da , paul hornsby . [ scene_break ] tracy : i should forgive you . [ sighs ] i have no one to blame but myself . you are just the latest in a long line of bad choices . in my own defense , i 'm -- i 'm still a little off my game . i went through a hell year with luke , and i was looking for a little light entertainment . and you fit the bill . paul : i 'd like to think it was a little bit more than that . tracy : oh , of course you would ! that 's how you were able to manipulate me , and you 're still trying . i ignored everything i know about you because of dillon . i was so sure you were sincere about wanting to connect with him . paul : no , i am sincere . and i also wanted to reconnect with you , as the mother of my son . if you read any more than that into my intentions ... i - i truly regret the misunderstanding . tracy : i was expedient . so was dillon . now you 're dancing as fast as you can to try to salvage something . because if i disclose that you are sleeping with a known criminal like ava jerome , you will definitely lose your job . aww . oh , and maybe you 'll even go to prison . give me one reason why i should n't make that happen . [ scene_break ] sam : um , no , i - i ca n't take any credit for saving robin . you did that yourself . you followed your instincts . patrick : which is exactly what you did with jason . you knew something was n't right , and you did n't let it go , and i fought you every step of the way . and i 'm sorry . sam : no , patrick , you were fighting for our life together . and i am so happy that we were worth fighting for . but , you know , you -- you said something to me that night that resonated . you said that jason was my true love , and i would always want a chance with him . you knew that because of robin . she is your true love . you 're always gon na want a chance with her , and now you have one . patrick : what about you , huh ? sam : what about me ? patrick : well ... now that jason knows that elizabeth was lying to him ... what 's gon na happen ? are you guys gon na -- are you guys gon na get a second chance ? [ scene_break ] spinelli : what do you know about yourself ? jason : [ sighs ] what do i know about myself ? let 's see . i know that i was married to sam . spinelli : uh - huh . jason : and that i killed people for sonny . spinelli : well , that 's a bit of a simplification . jason : no , i do n't think so . i killed two people just this summer . everybody said , `` that 's exactly what jason would do , `` like it was no big deal . spinelli : okay , well , yes , you do possess skills of a lethal nature , but you used them sparingly . i - in defense of those you cared about , and often for the sake of people who are weaker than you that needed your help . jason : ah . [ chuckles ] well , look , i 'm sorry , but i 've been getting to know sonny here and there , and yeah , he seems like a good guy ... for a mobster . and i do n't see how keeping him in power is a noble endeavor . spinelli : he befriended you when you were alone and alienated , much in the same way that you , in turn , befriended me . and you honed your natural talents to support his ambitions . jason : [ sighs ] spinelli : though there is no question that you were well - suited to the life of an outlaw . you were unswervingly loyal . [ sighs ] incredibly generous . and fair . quite surely the fairest person i ever met . and ... i 'm speaking here in terms of treating people justly , not [ sniffles ] your light hair and beautiful blue eyes . jason : no , i - i understand . i got it . thanks . spinelli : those who call you `` killer `` do n't know you . those who call you `` friend `` do . and i 'm one of those . and i - i fervently hope that you regain your memory , but even if you do n't ... i 'm still your friend . [ scene_break ] hayden : i do n't pretend to understand your so - called history with elizabeth webber , but there is no way you are obligated to cover for a man who tried to kill you . nikolas : she 's entitled to her opinion . it does n't mean i agree with her . hayden : nikolas , are you sure you should be sitting up ? nikolas : [ groans , coughs ] why not ? hayden : i do n't know , you just still seem a little groggy . nikolas : i am . however , i was listening . calculating my strategy . hayden : your strategy ? nikolas : well , jason was arrested for trying to kill me , right ? how can we play that to our advantage ? [ scene_break ] robin : i know how hard it was for my family to grieve for me when i was n't dead . i mean , i can only imagine what jason 's family is going through . elizabeth : and you 're wondering how i could do that to sam and danny , monica , carly , sonny . robin : well , yes . elizabeth : [ sighs ] robin , i lied because when i first knew him , h - he was jake doe . he was a man without a past . and when he was discharged from the hospital , he did n't have a place to go , so i took him in . and i fell in love with him . and when i found out he was jason , i knew what was gon na happen -- i knew that carly was going to drag him back into his old life , right back to sam , because she 's the only woman who can tolerate carly , and i did n't want that . so , yeah . i lied . i lied to keep him with me , to protect the family that i wanted to have with him and my boys . and i know it was selfish and it was unfair , but you know what ? i 'd do it again . so , go ahead . have at me . everybody else has . you can ... give me all the reasons why i should be punished . robin : oh , no , i 'm -- [ chuckles ] i 'm not here to judge you . i mean , obviously , you 're ... [ sighs ] you 're punishing yourself . [ scene_break ] michael : i know you ere n't being malicious , okay . you lied because you were scared . sabrina : still a lie . one that i 'll always regret . um , i ' m gon na -- i 'm gon na be moving back in with felix , so you do n't have to stay here to avoid me . michael : look , raising a baby is expensive , okay , especially on your own . i can help you financially with every -- sabrina : i - i - i do n't want your money , michael . i never did . i wanted you . too much , i guess . i lied to keep you , and so , of course , i lost you . michael : sorry . sabrina : why are you apologizing ? i 'm the one who messed up . anyway ... there 's no point in dragging this out , so i 'm gon na go . michael : uh , sabrina , wait . sabrina : is there something you wanted to say ? michael : uh ... this is , uh , this is for the baby . it 's , um , it 's a little late , but ... merry christmas . sabrina : merry christmas . [ scene_break ] sam : i do n't expect jason to come running back to me . i 'm just -- i 'm really happy that everything is out in the open . jason knows who he is . he knows who i am . everything else is kind of up for grabs . patrick : well , that 's how i feel about robin . i - i 'm really not sure about the future , but ... i 'm really grateful for right now . sam : yeah . patrick : you know , when someone 's taken from you and it 's not your fault and they come back to you , it kind of feels like a miracle , does n't it ? sam : yeah , but not every miracle has good timing . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : sorry . you 're the last person i should be unloading on . [ sighs ] robin : i just ca n't imagine what that would have been like , falling in love with jason not knowing it was him . elizabeth : you probably think you would have recognized him , but no one did . robin : is he very different ? elizabeth : well , his face is . but in other ways , he 's exactly the same . [ scene_break ] hayden : before we talk strategy , how long have you been faking ? nikolas : [ chuckles ] hayden , i simply took a page from your book . i used my real injury to buy some time to consider my next move . hayden : so you let me think that you were hurt worse than you really are ? nikolas : only fair . hayden : no , it 's not . i was scared to death for you . nikolas : i appreciate your concern . but thanks to you , my options are wide open where jason is concerned . [ scene_break ] spinelli : what is diane 's assessment of your case ? jason : i have to admit , she 's as good as everybody says she is . she was able to get me out on bail , despite my record . spinelli : well , then trust her to provide you with a vigorous defense . after all , you are most assuredly innocent . jason : you 're a very sweet guy , but you are not a good listener . i just told you that i am not . spinelli : what -- nikolas hit you first . it is his bad luck that your ability to defend yourself exceeds anyone , save perhaps an mma fighter or a navy seal . jason : i appreciate you believing in me . spinelli : well , i look forward to the day when you can believe in yourself . jason : hey , uh ... i can see why your friendship meant so much to me . i have to tell you that it still does . [ scene_break ] anna : sloane told me that he kept my gun and carlos ' id . mac : and that id was found on the body in the harbor . anna : sloane 's body . so let 's say paul and sloane agree to meet . sloane explains the whole set - up to him -- that he has proof that i shot carlos , but that actually , he 's still alive . so paul decides to use that evidence against me , but now he 's got this one loose end -- sloane . mac : so paul kills him , plants carlos ' id on the body , and dumps the body in the harbor . that way , carlos is declared dead and paul 's got leverage over you . anna : i mean , it all fits . in theory . we do n't have any proof . mac : hey , come on , one , we 've got the medical examiner 's report and paul 's cell number from sloane 's apartment . that 's enough to open an investigation . anna : if it leads where i think it will ... da hornsby 's guilty of murder . mac : [ chuckles ] let 's get to work . come on . [ scene_break ] paul : it 's a bit of a stretch to think you could send me to prison . but if that were possible , would you really want to do that to dillon ? tracy : do n't hide behind our son . paul : tracy , i need to know what you 're going to do about this thing with ava . tracy : well ... if i could leak it to the media without appearing as stupid as i feel , the scandal would already be trending . but i 'm opting to protect my privacy , thereby protecting yours . however , have no fear ... ... i will find a way to pay you back eventually . paul : tracy , i would like for us to part amicably . tracy : too bad . i do n't care what you want . get out . paul : [ clears throat ] [ door opens , closes ] [ scene_break ] sam : i have absolutely no expectations where jason 's concerned . a - a couple of days ago , he was in handcuffs and elizabeth was hugging him . so as far as i know , they 're back together . patrick : what do you mean , handcuffs ? sam : oh . um , he and nikolas got into a fight at the gala . and nikolas fell from the terrace of the metro court restaurant . patrick : fell ? sam : yeah , well ... hayden barnes insisted that jason pushed him . patrick : what do you think ? sam : i -- i do n't know . i - i think whatever happened , nikolas started it . patrick : no argument here . i know better than try and turn you against jason . sam : any more than i would try and turn you against robin . patrick : i love her . sam : i know you do . patrick : but i am ... so grateful for the time that i had with you . sam : i agree . and just because it did n't last , it does n't mean it was n't real . i really , really loved our little family . patrick : so did i . sam : [ sighs ] i 'm gon na miss you . patrick : miss you , too . sam : goodbye . patrick : goodbye , sam . sam : [ sighs ] [ scene_break ] nikolas : we need to hold off giving any more statements to the police until we decide which version of the story works best for us . hayden : what are you talking about ? i already talked to the police . i told them what happened -- that jason pushed you off the terrace . nikolas : yes . i know you did . but has it occurred to you that a free jason may be worth more to us than a jason in prison ?

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : nikolas , you have to tell the police it was a mutual argument that got out of control . hayden : why would he protect the man who wants -- who wanted to kill him ? elizabeth : jason was only reacting to what the three of us have done to him . hayden : excuse me , the three of us ? you 're the one who insisted on keeping this secret so you could have jason to yourself . nikolas kept the secret for you . he has played this your way right down the line , and he nearly died as a result . [ scene_break ] jason : sam had overheard something that jake told danny . she put the pieces together , and i walked in on her confronting elizabeth . and i immediately sided with elizabeth . spinelli : i -- i mean , you were no doubt caught off - guard . jason : [ sighs ] more than that . you see , i ... i assumed that sam had an agenda . i thought that elizabeth was honest . i thought she was telling the truth , and i had it backward . sam was honest . she wanted me to know the truth . and how did i repay her ? i was brutally unfair to her . spinelli : i - i 'm sure that sam has already forgiven you . i mean , she knows the ... crazy circumstances that you 've been dealing with . jason : yeah , she does , but ... i just feel horrible about how i treated her . the whole year that i lived here , not knowing who i was , she would tell me about jason morgan , how much she loved him . she told me that she accepted his death and that she had moved on with her life . you know ... i could tell she was still grieving , and i knew some part of her always would . spinelli : but happily , that 's no longer the case , because you 've been restored to her . jason : no , i have n't . i 'm not the husband that she loved . we did n't share a life like this . i do n't know who i am , man . and frankly , i do n't know if that guy 's ever gon na come back . [ scene_break ] michael : you told me that we did n't know each other well enough to make a lifetime commitment , but it turns out , you know , you were right , sabrina . i do n't know you ! and you did n't trust me enough to tell me that you might be pregnant by carlos . sabrina : i made a mistake , michael . which led to another and another , okay . so now you know that carlos is this child 's biological father . but , look , you said it yourself . it 's love , michael , it 's love . that 's what makes a family -- not biology . c - can you give your love to this child ? so we can raise it together ? [ scene_break ] paul : [ scoffs ] y - you can pretend to be indifferent , but we both know better . we 've enjoyed each other these last few months . i do n't want to lose your friendship . tracy : [ laughs ] oh , i see . we 're friends now . paul : we can be . if you 'd just give me another chance . tracy ... we have spent the better part of two decades ignoring each other 's existence . i , for one ... ... do not want to go back there .

[ scene_break ] sam : so , this whole time , robin was being held captive ? patrick : she did n't want to leave me and emma . sam : i am so sorry . that 's horrible . patrick : believe me , i 'm the one that 's sorry . i was so sorry being hurt and angry that i did n't -- did n't bother to look closer . i just accepted weekly phone calls or skype calls with emma , and i did n't try to engage with robin myself . i did n't try to find out more . i did n't try , and ... i should have done more , sam . sam : i do n't know , patrick . like , why did n't i see , except for his face , that jake was exactly like jason ? i could n't because i did n't have all the information . and neither did you . so instead of beating yourself up for not being psychic , you should give yourself credit for figuring it out and rescuing robin in time . patrick : speaking of credit , i think i , uh , i owe you a little credit . sam : oh . [ chuckles ] i do n't think so . patrick : no , really . i 'm not exactly proud of the way that i handled the situation between you and jason , but our break - up is what led me to take emma to go to paris to try and find robin . and that 's where we realized what was really going on . so ... robin 's rescue is actually attributed to you holding on to your feelings for jason . [ scene_break ] spinelli : with all due respect , there 's no question of if jason morgan comes back . he -- you -- are standing right in front of me . jason : jason morgan is not some stranger i can hide from because he is me . spinelli : a most perceptive insight . jason : i guess so . it 's not mine . it 's carly 's . you know what , th - that 's kind of the problem . everybody around here -- they know me better than i know myself . so when i do something that just shocks the hell out of me and nobody else blinks an eye , it kind of freaks me out . spinelli : i assume you 're talking about your altercation with nikolas ? jason : a couple of days ago , i went after him at the floating rib . it was n't much of a fight . i just -- i snapped , and it was just ... automatic . a couple of guys pulled me off of him , and frankly , i was grateful because what good does it do for me to beat the hell out of nik ? it does n't give me my time back that i lost . it does n't lessen everybody else 's grieving -- not yours , not sam 's . so when i saw him on the terrace , i did , i tried to walk away . but he stopped me . spinelli : so nikolas was the aggressor ? jason : he hit me . then , like i said , everything 's just automatic . spinelli : i 'm sorry , having been soundly beaten by you a brief time before , i mean , he clearly knew what he was getting into . jason : this is what i 'm talking about with you . i mean , every time , you give me the benefit of the doubt because i 'm jason ? what have i done to deserve this loyalty ? spinelli : well , allow me to explain . you were -- you were my best friend . and my hero . instead of talking about what anyone owes jason , why do n't we talk about what you owe nikolas ? [ scene_break ] hayden : how about a little support ? how about you march your holier - than - thou butt down to the police station and tell them that jason has made repeated threats against nikolas and that he finally acted on those threats when he tried to kill him the night of the gala . elizabeth : nikolas , please . please , tell the police you fell by accident , and get hayden to back your story . hayden : no ! jason tried to beat nikolas to death twice in a matter of days . he 's dangerous , and he needs to be locked up . elizabeth : excuse me , is n't nikolas paying your bills ? is n't he giving you a place to live ? i think you 'll do exactly what he tells you . hayden : i 'm trying to protect nikolas . you only care about protecting the guy who wants him dead . elizabeth : you have no idea what 's at stake here . or -- or the history between us . nikolas , i -- i am so sorry i did n't listen to you back in may . i know i 'm the one who set all of this in motion . please , you just have to help me stop this before somebody else gets hurt . hayden : you really want jason to get away with this ? elizabeth : i just want this to be over ! and it can be ... if you make the right decision .

[ scene_break ] anna : so , let 's just take everything step by step . one -- we 're reasonably certain now that carlos is still alive . i found that medal , and it has proof of his dna on it . so one of two things happened -- either he miraculously survived four bullets to the chest , or more likely , he was part of a set - up engineered by sloane to manipulate me . mac : and we know from ame gallagher that it was sloane 's body that was pulled from the harbor , shot twice at close range . anna : and paul pushed to have that body misidentified as carlos . mac : and he wanted the remains cremated to avoid a second autopsy . anna : sloane was in possession of paul 's cell number . and i got a text message from sloane 's phone after he was already dead . mac : so what 's the common denominator ? anna : our esteemed da , paul hornsby . [ scene_break ] tracy : i should forgive you . [ sighs ] i have no one to blame but myself . you are just the latest in a long line of bad choices . in my own defense , i 'm -- i 'm still a little off my game . i went through a hell year with luke , and i was looking for a little light entertainment . and you fit the bill . paul : i 'd like to think it was a little bit more than that . tracy : oh , of course you would ! that 's how you were able to manipulate me , and you 're still trying . i ignored everything i know about you because of dillon . i was so sure you were sincere about wanting to connect with him . paul : no , i am sincere . and i also wanted to reconnect with you , as the mother of my son . if you read any more than that into my intentions ... i - i truly regret the misunderstanding . tracy : i was expedient . so was dillon . now you 're dancing as fast as you can to try to salvage something . because if i disclose that you are sleeping with a known criminal like ava jerome , you will definitely lose your job . aww . oh , and maybe you 'll even go to prison . give me one reason why i should n't make that happen . [ scene_break ] sam : um , no , i - i ca n't take any credit for saving robin . you did that yourself . you followed your instincts . patrick : which is exactly what you did with jason . you knew something was n't right , and you did n't let it go , and i fought you every step of the way . and i 'm sorry . sam : no , patrick , you were fighting for our life together . and i am so happy that we were worth fighting for . but , you know , you -- you said something to me that night that resonated . you said that jason was my true love , and i would always want a chance with him . you knew that because of robin . she is your true love . you 're always gon na want a chance with her , and now you have one . patrick : what about you , huh ? sam : what about me ? patrick : well ... now that jason knows that elizabeth was lying to him ... what 's gon na happen ? are you guys gon na -- are you guys gon na get a second chance ? [ scene_break ] spinelli : what do you know about yourself ? jason : [ sighs ] what do i know about myself ? let 's see . i know that i was married to sam . spinelli : uh - huh . jason : and that i killed people for sonny . spinelli : well , that 's a bit of a simplification . jason : no , i do n't think so . i killed two people just this summer . everybody said , `` that 's exactly what jason would do , `` like it was no big deal . spinelli : okay , well , yes , you do possess skills of a lethal nature , but you used them sparingly . i - in defense of those you cared about , and often for the sake of people who are weaker than you that needed your help . jason : ah . [ chuckles ] well , look , i 'm sorry , but i 've been getting to know sonny here and there , and yeah , he seems like a good guy ... for a mobster . and i do n't see how keeping him in power is a noble endeavor . spinelli : he befriended you when you were alone and alienated , much in the same way that you , in turn , befriended me . and you honed your natural talents to support his ambitions . jason : [ sighs ] spinelli : though there is no question that you were well - suited to the life of an outlaw . you were unswervingly loyal . [ sighs ] incredibly generous . and fair . quite surely the fairest person i ever met . and ... i 'm speaking here in terms of treating people justly , not [ sniffles ] your light hair and beautiful blue eyes . jason : no , i - i understand . i got it . thanks . spinelli : those who call you `` killer `` do n't know you . those who call you `` friend `` do . and i 'm one of those . and i - i fervently hope that you regain your memory , but even if you do n't ... i 'm still your friend . [ scene_break ] hayden : i do n't pretend to understand your so - called history with elizabeth webber , but there is no way you are obligated to cover for a man who tried to kill you . nikolas : she 's entitled to her opinion . it does n't mean i agree with her . hayden : nikolas , are you sure you should be sitting up ? nikolas : [ groans , coughs ] why not ? hayden : i do n't know , you just still seem a little groggy . nikolas : i am . however , i was listening . calculating my strategy . hayden : your strategy ? nikolas : well , jason was arrested for trying to kill me , right ? how can we play that to our advantage ? [ scene_break ] robin : i know how hard it was for my family to grieve for me when i was n't dead . i mean , i can only imagine what jason 's family is going through . elizabeth : and you 're wondering how i could do that to sam and danny , monica , carly , sonny . robin : well , yes . elizabeth : [ sighs ] robin , i lied because when i first knew him , h - he was jake doe . he was a man without a past . and when he was discharged from the hospital , he did n't have a place to go , so i took him in . and i fell in love with him . and when i found out he was jason , i knew what was gon na happen -- i knew that carly was going to drag him back into his old life , right back to sam , because she 's the only woman who can tolerate carly , and i did n't want that . so , yeah . i lied . i lied to keep him with me , to protect the family that i wanted to have with him and my boys . and i know it was selfish and it was unfair , but you know what ? i 'd do it again . so , go ahead . have at me . everybody else has . you can ... give me all the reasons why i should be punished . robin : oh , no , i 'm -- [ chuckles ] i 'm not here to judge you . i mean , obviously , you 're ...

[ scene_break ] michael : i know you ere n't being malicious , okay . you lied because you were scared . sabrina : still a lie . one that i 'll always regret . um , i ' m gon na -- i 'm gon na be moving back in with felix , so you do n't have to stay here to avoid me . michael : look , raising a baby is expensive , okay , especially on your own . i can help you financially with every -- sabrina : i - i - i do n't want your money , michael . i never did . i wanted you . too much , i guess . i lied to keep you , and so , of course , i lost you . michael : sorry . sabrina : why are you apologizing ? i 'm the one who messed up . anyway ... there 's no point in dragging this out , so i 'm gon na go . michael : uh , sabrina , wait . sabrina : is there something you wanted to say ? michael : uh ... this is , uh , this is for the baby . it 's , um , it 's a little late , but ... merry christmas . sabrina : merry christmas . [ scene_break ] sam : i do n't expect jason to come running back to me . i 'm just -- i 'm really happy that everything is out in the open . jason knows who he is . he knows who i am . everything else is kind of up for grabs . patrick : well , that 's how i feel about robin . i - i 'm really not sure about the future , but ... i 'm really grateful for right now . sam : yeah . patrick : you know , when someone 's taken from you and it 's not your fault and they come back to you , it kind of feels like a miracle , does n't it ? sam : yeah , but not every miracle has good timing . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : sorry . you 're the last person i should be unloading on . [ sighs ] robin : i just ca n't imagine what that would have been like , falling in love with jason not knowing it was him . elizabeth : you probably think you would have recognized him , but no one did . robin : is he very different ? elizabeth : well , his face is . but in other ways , he 's exactly the same . [ scene_break ] hayden : before we talk strategy , how long have you been faking ? nikolas : [ chuckles ] hayden , i simply took a page from your book . i used my real injury to buy some time to consider my next move . hayden : so you let me think that you were hurt worse than you really are ? nikolas : only fair . hayden : no , it 's not . i was scared to death for you . nikolas : i appreciate your concern . but thanks to you , my options are wide open where jason is concerned . [ scene_break ] spinelli : what is diane 's assessment of your case ? jason : i have to admit , she 's as good as everybody says she is . she was able to get me out on bail , despite my record . spinelli : well , then trust her to provide you with a vigorous defense . after all , you are most assuredly innocent . jason : you 're a very sweet guy , but you are not a good listener . i just told you that i am not . spinelli : what -- nikolas hit you first . it is his bad luck that your ability to defend yourself exceeds anyone , save perhaps an mma fighter or a navy seal . jason : i appreciate you believing in me . spinelli : well , i look forward to the day when you can believe in yourself . jason : hey , uh ... i can see why your friendship meant so much to me . i have to tell you that it still does .

[ intense music ] steve : sweetness ... i know i 've been through a rough stretch lately . i feel like you 're trying to protect me from something . i just do n't know what . for a second there , i thought maybe you were having an affair . kayla : are you -- an affair ? are you kidding me ? get up . get up . do n't you know how much i love you ? steve : i do . sweetness . whatever this is ... i can handle it . i 'm better now . we 'll deal with it together like we always do . kayla : i 'm sorry . i am keeping something from you . [ dramatic music ] but i - i ca n't tell you what it is . steve : oh , now i really do n't get this . kayla : no , because it 's ... i never like keeping secrets from you , but this is n't my secret to tell . jen made me promise to keep it strictly between the two of us . and what you probably heard was me just saying that ... i do n't like to ever keep anything from you . steve : no . what you said was ... if i found out , you were afraid of what might happen . did you mean what i might do ? oh , this is about stefan , is n't it ? stefan : yeah . now , that was gabby . abigail : no . that was me . and chad did n't just up and run . he is taking time to come to terms with this . stefan : how much time does he need ? abigail : it 's not your business . just like , until this child is born , it 's not your business .

! are you crazy ? judge : excuse me . harley : no disrespect intended whatsoever . that just shows you the stress i 'm feeling right now . your honor , if you could just give us a little bit more time , it would alter the course of a young boy 's life . and not just one person 's life , but ... judge : detective cooper , are you trying to stall me ? harley : yes , your honor . judge : yes , well -- cut it out . harley : yes , ma'am . judge : you 're the mother ? natalia : yes , ma'am . judge : if the father and your lawyer are n't here in the next five minutes , i 'm going to have to call it a day , okay ? the court 's going to take a five - minute recess . natalia : why is n't gus here ? harley : i told you -- i ca n't reach him . natalia : okay , i know gus , and i know he 'd be here if he knew what was at stake . harley : well , i think i know gus a little bit myself , too , natalia , and the only reason he 's not here is because something is wrong . natalia : but do you really want him to make it in time ? why would you ? you do n't want me and my son in your life . harley : can we do this another time ? natalia : okay , no , no , no , no , no . you act so tough and very mature , and you 're so understanding , but the truth is you are threatened by the fact that we have a child together . and that 's why he is not here . you kept the time of the hearing from him . harley : i used to like you , but i 'm not so sure . natalia : well , now we 're getting somewhere . harley : natalia , please , i ... i would n't do anything to undermine what gus could have with rafe . i would n't do anything . rafe : what 's going on ? natalia : um , we have to delay your hearing until gus gets here . rafe : he 's not here ? okay , big surprise . harley : rafe , we have to have faith that gus will come through , because he always comes through . i 'm sure he has a great reason for not being here . rafe : yeah . judge : come to order , please . i 'm sorry , but i 've waited as long as i can . i 'm going to have to call a halt to these proceedings and we can reschedule ... gus : i 'm so sorry that i 'm late . there was a screw - up with when the hearing was . the time got moved , whatever . i 'm here now . judge : and you 're the father , i take it ?

and now he 's trying to save the day . i can not figure him out . jeffrey : could you try to look like you want to get out of here ? you know , your dad beat up two psycho security guards and a ship 's captain -- and i think his tooth is loose -- to get here , okay ? so could you sit up straight and try to be grateful ? judge : mr. rivera , you were sent here pending periodic reviews of your situation . i can choose to keep you in here for as long as i think is necessary . do you understand ? rafe : yeah . judge : you were brought before me on a charge of attempted assault and robbery . i am aware that the victim in this case is here and is in favor of returning you to society . also present are others who are in support of giving you your freedom . now , that 's all very well and good but what concerns me as a judge in the juvenile system is what landed you in this facility and what you 've done since you 've arrived . am i clear ? rafe : yes , your honor . lou : no respect , no discipline . he 'll be here and he 'll end up in prison . the kid is bad news . i knew it from the minute i saw him . judge : thank you , officer , you 're excused . jeffrey : your honor , my client has learned his lesson . he understands that the next stop will be prison for adults . he does n't want to go down that road . he is only 16 and he has lived a very difficult life . i believe that there is room here for course correction . judge : noted . i 'd like to ask raphael some questions myself . and you do n't think this is having trouble with authority figures ? rafe : no . you treat me fair and i 'm cool . judge : things are n't always fair in life , raphael . rafe : yeah , i know , i noticed . judge : i know you 're all anxious to hear some kind of ruling , so let 's get this out of the way . frankly , i 'm not impressed . this young man needs to learn how to get along in society before his return to society . i 'm afraid my recommendation to the d.a . will be that ... gus : your honor , i 'm sorry . can i say something on raphael 's behalf ? judge : i think i 've already heard your defense . i doubt that you 'll have much to contribute . gus : well , that 's the point , your honor . i have n't contributed anything up to now , so i thought , you know , maybe ... hey , maybe that 's why we 're all here right now , you know ? judge : all right . just be brief , please . gus : sure . i do n't know , maybe i 'm the one who should be on trial here . because i have n't been here for this boy at all . i did n't know about him . i did n't know he existed . and believe me , i understand the responsibilities that a father has . i do n't take that ... i do n't take that lightly at all . but he did n't have me for anything . he did n't have me for anything as simple as throwing a ball around or learning how to stand up to bullies in school or , you know , sneaking into a cubs game because there is a place at the stadium that you can ... well , let me just skip that part , right . my point is if you 're going to make a ruling today based on a fact , there 's only one fact that you really need to know , and that is that he has never had a break . you know , he needs a break . and as his father , i 'm telling you that his break is due . it 's father 's day , your honor , and i 'm still trying to wrap my head around the fact that there is actually a day that has anything to do with me in it . but i 'm a father . and i 'm still learning , but i intend to do my very best . and that 's all you can ever really ask of anybody in this life , is just , you know , do your best .

! are you crazy ? judge : excuse me . harley : no disrespect intended whatsoever . that just shows you the stress i 'm feeling right now . your honor , if you could just give us a little bit more time , it would alter the course of a young boy 's life . and not just one person 's life , but ... judge : detective cooper , are you trying to stall me ?

why would you ? you do n't want me and my son in your life . harley : can we do this another time ? natalia : okay , no , no , no , no , no . you act so tough and very mature , and you 're so understanding , but the truth is you are threatened by the fact that we have a child together . and that 's why he is not here . you kept the time of the hearing from him . harley : i used to like you , but i 'm not so sure . natalia : well , now we 're getting somewhere . harley : natalia , please , i ... i would n't do anything to undermine what gus could have with rafe . i would n't do anything . rafe : what 's going on ?

and now he 's trying to save the day . i can not figure him out . jeffrey : could you try to look like you want to get out of here ? you know , your dad beat up two psycho security guards and a ship 's captain -- and i think his tooth is loose -- to get here , okay ? so could you sit up straight and try to be grateful ? judge : mr. rivera , you were sent here pending periodic reviews of your situation . i can choose to keep you in here for as long as i think is necessary . do you understand ? rafe : yeah . judge : you were brought before me on a charge of attempted assault and robbery . i am aware that the victim in this case is here and is in favor of returning you to society . also present are others who are in support of giving you your freedom . now , that 's all very well and good but what concerns me as a judge in the juvenile system is what landed you in this facility and what you 've done since you 've arrived . am i clear ? rafe : yes , your honor . lou : no respect , no discipline . he 'll be here and he 'll end up in prison . the kid is bad news . i knew it from the minute i saw him . judge : thank you , officer , you 're excused . jeffrey : your honor , my client has learned his lesson . he understands that the next stop will be prison for adults . he does n't want to go down that road . he is only 16 and he has lived a very difficult life . i believe that there is room here for course correction . judge : noted . i 'd like to ask raphael some questions myself . and you do n't think this is having trouble with authority figures ? rafe : no . you treat me fair and i 'm cool . judge : things are n't always fair in life , raphael . rafe : yeah , i know , i noticed . judge : i know you 're all anxious to hear some kind of ruling , so let 's get this out of the way . frankly , i 'm not impressed . this young man needs to learn how to get along in society before his return to society . i 'm afraid my recommendation to the d.a . will be that ... gus : your honor , i 'm sorry . can i say something on raphael 's behalf ? judge : i think i 've already heard your defense . i doubt that you 'll have much to contribute . gus : well , that 's the point , your honor . i have n't contributed anything up to now , so i thought , you know , maybe ... hey , maybe that 's why we 're all here right now , you know ? judge : all right . just be brief , please . gus : sure . i do n't know , maybe i 'm the one who should be on trial here . because i have n't been here for this boy at all . i did n't know about him . i did n't know he existed . and believe me , i understand the responsibilities that a father has . i do n't take that ... i do n't take that lightly at all . but he did n't have me for anything . he did n't have me for anything as simple as throwing a ball around or learning how to stand up to bullies in school or , you know , sneaking into a cubs game because there is a place at the stadium that you can ... well , let me just skip that part , right . my point is if you 're going to make a ruling today based on a fact , there 's only one fact that you really need to know , and that is that he has never had a break . you know , he needs a break . and as his father , i 'm telling you that his break is due . it 's father 's day , your honor , and i 'm still trying to wrap my head around the fact that there is actually a day that has anything to do with me in it . but i 'm a father . and i 'm still learning , but i intend to do my very best . and that 's all you can ever really ask of anybody in this life , is just , you know , do your best .

josh : well , notes under the door , messages left on voice mail , things like that . frank : well , do you have any idea who would do something like that ? josh : yeah , as a matter of fact , i do . it was work - related . it was a person that we had been dealing with through lewis construction a while back , and this person was not happy when i could n't accommodate . frank : well , josh , that 's kind of serious . i mean , that 's not something i would brush off so easily . josh : yeah , i know that . that 's why i called you . but the fact is , billy and i were able to reestablish contact with this person , and ... billy : and then we just worked it out . frank : and that 's that ? billy : yeah . you know , a little face - to - face talk does wonders . frank : well , that 's kind of interesting , because usually with my experience in this type of thing , people that usually do that , they really do n't back off so quickly . billy : well , not this person . they 're a pussycat . it 's all done with . frank : so it 's over , done , not a problem ?

be specific and romantic . `` shayne : i do n't know . you 're so full of surprises , i would n't know where to start . but i guess i do . marina : tell me . shayne : it 's the way you were right after the accident and the way you 've been every day since then . when i woke up in the hospital and i could n't move , i thought for sure that you were going to leave me . i mean , being with a guy who could n't move anything from the neck down , that was n't exactly what you signed up for . marina : what i signed up for is you . shayne : well , i figured that out . i mean , i even tried to push you away . i just wanted you to have a normal life . and every time you walked out that door , part of me was feeling like ... like you would n't come back . but you always did . marina : and i always will . shayne : okay . so what surprises you about me ? marina : that 's easy . your spirit . how generous you are . how kind and forgiving . i mean , you know , like when you found out sandy was your brother . most guys would have had some sort of resentment towards him , but you did n't , you know ? you embraced him . you welcomed him right away . and , like , your dad , you know ? you could have hated him for pushing you so hard -- i mean , literally to the point of having an accident . and you did n't , you know ? you were able to put all of that anger aside . shayne : no , that 's not true . i was mad at him for a long , long time . marina : yeah , but then you were able to move past it and just focus on getting better . god , i mean , to be able to forgive like that , to just be able to love and keep on loving no matter what , that is so huge . and i look at you and what you 've been through , how far you 've come , you make me believe that anything 's possible . shayne : because anything is possible as long as we 're together . jeffrey : well , mrs. winslow , what 's it going to be ? dance or no dance ? cassie : spoken like such a gentleman . no wonder why the ladies ca n't resist you . jeffrey : well , if you 're referring to a particular lady , okay , i 'd rather not discuss that with you here , if you do n't mind . as a matter of fact , i do n't want to discuss that with you anywhere , period . cassie : okay . well , you know what ? fine by me . she 's reva 's daughter , she 's not mine . it 's reva 's job to protect her . but i do have one thing to say about the subject . jeffrey : only one thing ? you ? cassie : yeah . you go near my daughter ever , and i will kill you before you have a chance to prosecute me . jeffrey : your daughter ? first of all , mrs. winslow , your daughter is still in high school . cassie : yeah , well , like i said . jeffrey : that 's ... cassie : disgusting , vile , obnoxious ? you said it , not me . jeffrey : no , actually , you said it , mrs. winslow . cassie : you know , speaking of my daughter and other kids her age , instead of being here playing footsie with my niece , maybe you should be doing something important , like maybe your job , for a change . jeffrey : i 'm sorry , did you say something ? because i lost you at `` footsie . `` cassie : are you aware that there is a new drug on the street , a new drug that is very seductive and very dangerous , mr. o'neill ? jeffrey : maybe . cassie : `` maybe `` ? jeffrey : yeah , maybe . cassie : what kind of answer is that ? jeffrey : that 's a noncommittal one , okay ? because i do n't want to talk about that . cassie : why not ? jeffrey : well , because that 's work , and i am not at work now . i 'm off the clock . you got that ? cassie : crime does n't sleep , mr. o'neill . jeffrey : that 's profound , mrs. winslow . all right , you want to talk ? go ahead , talk . cassie : no . uh - uh . i do n't want to talk . i do n't want to talk anymore . jeffrey : yes , talk . cassie : no , no , no , no . you know why ? because you 're not for the good of the public . you 're not for the good of the people . you 're for you . all you care about is your beard , your sneakers , your snippy - snappy , snarky comebacks . jeffrey : oh , that 's good . no , you 're going to talk . we 're going to talk , and we 're going to talk out on the dance floor . cassie : what ? jeffrey : yeah . cassie : why ? jeffrey : why ? because i want to have a good time , okay ? i want to have a good time if it kills me , and sitting here with you is killing me . now , let 's go . tony : hi . marah : hey . tony : blake , how are you ?

reva : oh , cassie ... cassie : then he moved on to his next conquest , which happens to be your daughter . how is she going to feel when he moves on to the next ? reva : maybe he wo n't . maybe jeffrey o'neill is n't the cad you seem to think he his , or was . you know , are you forgetting that that 's the same guy who fixed rj 's turkey costume ? he has his good moments . cassie : i 'm sorry , but the man has problems . reva : cassie , you 're the one with the problem . why is that , as if i did n't know ? cassie : what is that supposed to mean ? reva : the man 's face , sweetie . he looks exactly like richard , and you ca n't bear that , which means you ca n't bear him . and i 'm sorry for that . i am , sweetie . but i think it 's time you got over it . marah : do n't do that . do n't pull away . jeffrey : your mother and your aunt cassie are right over there . marah : i do n't care . jeffrey : well , you should care . you 're their ... they 're the only family that you have , so , you know . cassie : the fact that jeffrey o'neill looks exactly like richard has nothing to do with anything . reva : it has nothing to do with your ability to relate to him , has nothing to do with coloring your judgment about him just the teeniest , tiniest , little bit ? cassie : absolutely not , no . reva : hi , jeffrey . jeffrey : hello , ladies . reva , may i have this dance ? reva : i would love to , jeffrey , i would , but i 've got to go and find josh right now . but i 'm sure that my lovely sister would be happy to fill in for me . would n't you , lovely sister ? have a good time . jeffrey : well , how about it , mrs. winslow ? do you dare be alone with me ? frank : well , josh , you said you had a problem , then you said you took care of it , and i was just curious what it was about . josh : i was receiving threats . frank : what kind of threats ? josh : well , notes under the door , messages left on voice mail , things like that . frank : well , do you have any idea who would do something like that ? josh : yeah , as a matter of fact , i do . it was work - related . it was a person that we had been dealing with through lewis construction a while back , and this person was not happy when i could n't accommodate . frank : well , josh , that 's kind of serious . i mean , that 's not something i would brush off so easily . josh : yeah , i know that . that 's why i called you . but the fact is , billy and i were able to reestablish contact with this person , and ... billy : and then we just worked it out . frank : and that 's that ? billy : yeah . you know , a little face - to - face talk does wonders . frank : well , that 's kind of interesting , because usually with my experience in this type of thing , people that usually do that , they really do n't back off so quickly . billy : well , not this person . they 're a pussycat . it 's all done with . frank : so it 's over , done , not a problem ? josh : yeah , that 's it . it 's over . reva : hey , there you are . are you avoiding me ? josh : no , no . i was just thinking , that 's all . reva : about ? josh : you . i want my life back . i want you back . marina : okay . `` what has surprised you most about each other ? be specific and romantic . `` shayne : i do n't know . you 're so full of surprises , i would n't know where to start . but i guess i do . marina : tell me . shayne : it 's the way you were right after the accident and the way you 've been every day since then . when i woke up in the hospital and i could n't move , i thought for sure that you were going to leave me . i mean , being with a guy who could n't move anything from the neck down , that was n't exactly what you signed up for . marina : what i signed up for is you . shayne : well , i figured that out . i mean , i even tried to push you away . i just wanted you to have a normal life . and every time you walked out that door , part of me was feeling like ... like you would n't come back . but you always did . marina : and i always will . shayne : okay . so what surprises you about me ? marina : that 's easy . your spirit . how generous you are . how kind and forgiving . i mean , you know , like when you found out sandy was your brother . most guys would have had some sort of resentment towards him , but you did n't , you know ? you embraced him . you welcomed him right away . and , like , your dad , you know ? you could have hated him for pushing you so hard -- i mean , literally to the point of having an accident . and you did n't , you know ? you were able to put all of that anger aside . shayne : no , that 's not true . i was mad at him for a long , long time . marina : yeah , but then you were able to move past it and just focus on getting better . god , i mean , to be able to forgive like that , to just be able to love and keep on loving no matter what , that is so huge . and i look at you and what you 've been through , how far you 've come , you make me believe that anything 's possible . shayne : because anything is possible as long as we 're together . jeffrey : well , mrs. winslow , what 's it going to be ? dance or no dance ? cassie : spoken like such a gentleman . no wonder why the ladies ca n't resist you . jeffrey : well , if you 're referring to a particular lady , okay , i 'd rather not discuss that with you here , if you do n't mind . as a matter of fact , i do n't want to discuss that with you anywhere , period . cassie : okay . well , you know what ? fine by me . she 's reva 's daughter , she 's not mine . it 's reva 's job to protect her . but i do have one thing to say about the subject . jeffrey : only one thing ? you ? cassie : yeah . you go near my daughter ever , and i will kill you before you have a chance to prosecute me . jeffrey : your daughter ? first of all , mrs. winslow , your daughter is still in high school . cassie : yeah , well , like i said . jeffrey : that 's ... cassie : disgusting , vile , obnoxious ? you said it , not me . jeffrey : no , actually , you said it , mrs. winslow . cassie : you know , speaking of my daughter and other kids her age , instead of being here playing footsie with my niece , maybe you should be doing something important , like maybe your job , for a change . jeffrey : i 'm sorry , did you say something ? because i lost you at `` footsie . `` cassie : are you aware that there is a new drug on the street , a new drug that is very seductive and very dangerous , mr. o'neill ? jeffrey : maybe . cassie : `` maybe `` ? jeffrey : yeah , maybe . cassie : what kind of answer is that ? jeffrey : that 's a noncommittal one , okay ? because i do n't want to talk about that . cassie : why not ? jeffrey : well , because that 's work , and i am not at work now . i 'm off the clock . you got that ? cassie : crime does n't sleep , mr. o'neill . jeffrey : that 's profound , mrs. winslow . all right , you want to talk ? go ahead , talk . cassie : no . uh - uh . i do n't want to talk . i do n't want to talk anymore . jeffrey : yes , talk . cassie : no , no , no , no . you know why ? because you 're not for the good of the public . you 're not for the good of the people . you 're for you . all you care about is your beard , your sneakers , your snippy - snappy , snarky comebacks . jeffrey : oh , that 's good . no , you 're going to talk . we 're going to talk , and we 're going to talk out on the dance floor . cassie : what ? jeffrey : yeah . cassie : why ? jeffrey : why ? because i want to have a good time , okay ? i want to have a good time if it kills me , and sitting here with you is killing me . now , let 's go . tony : hi . marah : hey . tony : blake , how are you ?

( sighs ) look , i want to make this right . i know i ca n't fix it in just one day , but i 'm not gon na go to my grave without trying . brooke , there has to be something , something that i can do or say or ... you -- you do n't have any -- oh , i see . okay . all right . okay . you do n't talk to me . that 's gon na be my punishment , right ? oh , brooke . please ! come on . i do n't care if you yell and rant and rave and scream and run around and jump up and down and hit me -- no , do n't hit me . okay . um ... i know that you 're committed to my son . i know you love him . and i know you love tom in your own way , and he 's a wonderful , young , honest , good kid , and what i did was terrible . i turned all of that around . it was wrong . i 'm sorry . is that what you want ? is -- is that what you want , for me to admit that ? because i admit it . is n't there anything i can say or do that can make this right ? i mean , i 'll do anything . brooke : anything , stephanie ? stephanie : yeah , anything .

[ voice breaking ] i refuse to be pushed over the edge like i was before . i do n't care if everyone turns against me . i will remain sane , because i 'm not crazy ! i 'm normal ! i 'm a normal person ! and as far as i know , normal people get very upset when someone breaks into their house and leaves a threatening message !

[ crying ] dylan : hey , i really need you to listen to me . i believe you . sharon : but there 's more . dylan : you got to understand why somebody would question this , given your history and -- and the effect nick has on you . sharon : this has nothing to do with nick . dylan : but it always has to do with nick , sharon , even -- even the night of the storm . sharon : that was a minor car accident . dylan : correct , i - it was . but you were really freaked out that nick would find out and take faith from you . sharon : and you think i was overreacting ? dylan : yes , a little bit . sharon : okay . well , then , i will have to do something about that . i will change that . i 'll talk about it with my therapist in my next session . dylan : well , i could be your sounding board until then . sharon : you would do that ? dylan : heck no . [ both laugh ] dylan : yes , i would do that , if you 're willing to be completely open with me . is there something more ? is there something else that happened that night ? sharon : what else could there be ? dylan : i do n't know . why do n't you walk me through it ? sharon : [ sniffles ] well , when the power went out , i probably should 've stayed here . but i felt like i needed to get faith to someplace warm and safe . it was already very cold , and faith would n't stop shivering . dylan : so , what -- you got faith in the car , and then ... sharon : i was headed to a hotel . but the storm got a lot worse than they predicted , and we skidded off the road -- luckily , not too far away from home , so we were able to trudge back . you think that i was wrong to be that upset ? dylan : it sounds to me like you thought things through , and you made the best decisions you could . sharon : thank you . dylan : who do you think did it ? sharon : i do n't know . dylan : [ sighs ] okay , well , i can stay so you do n't have to talk to the police alone . and then we can figure out who tried to scare you with a message like this . sharon : you should go , dylan . i can handle this myself . dylan : there 's no -- there 's no reason you have to . sharon : no , i mean , it 's -- it 's good for me . it 's good for me to face things on my own . and besides , you have a life of your own to get back to . dylan : are you sure ? sharon : i am . really . no , talking to you helped . dylan : okay . call me if you need anything . sharon : i will do that . dylan : mm - hmm .

[ clears throat ] oh , yes , of course . the -- the -- the better days foundation . yeah . right , w - what 's your involvement ? nick : yeah , i 'm curious about that , too . avery : uh , after mrs. bingham 's death , an associate of mine , joe clark , was approached to restructure the charity . we just need your signature in a couple places . adam : yeah ? avery : yeah . adam : oh , okay . all right . i can do that for you . and here . and then i really do have to , uh -- have to be going . you take care of yourself . i 'll see you soon . very good to meet you . good luck with all this . avery : thank you . adam : thank you . avery : is it me , or was that completely weird ? nick : he did n't even look at what he was signing . avery : he just trusted me . nick : he does n't even know you . avery : i mean , i guess he could assume the best of someone working for a nonprofit ? nick : but you think you would 've known the name of the nonprofit , right ? avery : you would . it 's my understanding that he has been groomed to handle everything , right , from a young age ? nick : and gabe was always so passionate about causes . now all he cares about is money . avery : i had n't heard that . nick : oh , yeah . he 'll do anything to get his hands on money . avery : and that 's not the person you remember ? nick : less and less . dylan : hey . noah : hey . uh , so , w - what 's going on with my mom ? dylan : well , since you 've been worried about her , i just wanted to let you know that i had a long talk with her . and i do n't believe that she 's off her meds . noah : good . t - that 's good . that 's good to hear . it 's just , she 's been so upset for a while . dylan : yeah , yeah , with good reason . somebody 's messing with her head again . noah : what are they doing ? dylan : well , she got this message , uh , written in lipstick on one of her mirrors . noah : wow . uh ... are you sure ? dylan : yeah . yeah , i saw it . noah : uh , w - w - what did it say ? dylan : `` i know the truth , and so do you . `` does that mean something to you ? noah : mnh - mnh . no . um ... uh , but mom must be pretty freaked out right now , right ? dylan : yeah , she is . she 's really freaked out . and i think sharon 's scared that if she reported it , nobody would believe her . noah : yeah . dylan : so i 'm going to . noah : uh , uh , wait , wait , wait . [ sighs ] you ca n't do that . kevin : noah is so protective when it comes to sharon , i was worried how he would react to this . so i thought it 'd be better if we watched it without him first just in case it 's really bad . you ready ? mariah : we 've got to find out . sharon : nick may pretend that he 's nothing like victor . but the truth is , he 's no different than anyone else in the newman family . they all use their name , their family influence , their money to take exactly what they want . and it does n't matter who gets hurt . promises mean nothing . there are dirty dealings that go way back ... things that the press never even got wind of . especially this one thing . victor paid a lot of money to cover it up , and it was really awful . i 'm amazed that he got away with it . to this day , no one ever found out . and it was n't even victor 's crime . it was nick 's . dylan : somebody is scaring your mom . you remember what happened last time somebody played head games with sharon . noah : i know . she ended up in a psychiatric wing . dylan : exactly . that 's why we need to get to the bottom of this right now . noah : okay , fine . we will , okay ? but the police ca n't be involved . dylan : why not ? noah : look , i want my mom safe more than anything . but there 's more going on . dylan : what do you -- what -- like what ? noah : things that i know that i ca n't -- it might be safer for my mom if the cops are n't involved . dylan : how could that be ? noah ? noah : the message . it 's not the -- it 's not the first one . dylan : wait , sharon 's gotten other messages ? noah : no , not my mom . there was a message like that on abby 's phone when she was knocked unconscious ... a threat warning her about what would happen if she went to the police . and then she got another one at victoria 's . that 's why stitch is with abby at the club right now . he 's watching out for her , because the police can not know about this . dylan : who 's been writing these messages , and what do they think abby and your mom have done ? noah : i ca n't tell you . dylan : but if you 're this worried -- noah : i 'm afraid i 've told you too much already , okay ? just do n't go to the cops . dylan : noah , come on ! nick : must be pretty awkward , working with your ex - husband . avery : no , look at us . we get along great . nick : yeah , well , i 'm just an ex - fiancé . and i never tried to shut down anyone 's business . how 's dylan feel about that ? avery : you know , i have come to realize that dylan will never like joe . nick : pretty safe bet . avery : yes , but it is for a very worthy cause . nick : and that 's why you 're doing it . avery : yes , that 's why i 'm doing it . and dylan will be fine . nick : we 'll see about that . dylan : hey . avery : hi ! hey . dylan : uh , you ready for dinner ? avery : oh , i wish . i have to file some papers . can we eat later ? dylan : uh , yeah , sure . i actually have something to take care of myself . see you . nick : what 's up ? avery : he 'll be fine . chelsea : i 'm sure i 'm just over - thinking all of this . things will work out fine with billy . [ door opens ] sage : gabriel , hello . adam : hi . sage : how was the rest of your day ? did you get the gas gauge fixed ? adam : uh , no . i - i did n't . um , guess i do n't have to ask you how your day went , do i ? chelsea : um ... adam : recovered yet ? chelsea : uh , absolutely . adam : yeah ? chelsea : yeah . excuse me . adam : you know , i thought i 'd made some headway with her earlier . guess not . sage : no , your guess is wrong . that hasty exit is because you did make headway . adam : what do you mean ? sage : i never understood what chelsea saw in you . but , clearly , she gets you on a whole different level . adam : did she say that ? sage : she 'd been reminiscing about her marriage before you walked in , and questioning her current engagement . adam : really ? this is great . and you 're not happy about that ? sage : no . i 'm not enjoying any of this . abby : my mother slept with the guy that my sister 's in love with . stitch : now can we drop it ? abby : did you really sleep with my mom ? stitch : ashley and i agreed not to tell anyone . abby : okay , well , when did it happen ? give me a date , a - a timeframe . stitch : abby , i am not going there with you , okay ? it was one night . i 'd had a lot to drink , and i was n't thinking straight . [ sighs ] that mixed in with the heady scent of hex throughout the lab , and , well ... abby : wait , you -- you did it in the lab ? but there -- there 's no shower in the -- the shower in my mom 's office . stitch : what do you want -- a map drawn out for you ? abby : yeah ! stitch : all right . this discussion is over . [ sighs ] abby : does victoria have any idea ? stitch : unh - unh . and you ca n't tell her . stitch : the only reason that night ever happened with ashley is because i thought victoria had gotten back together with billy . abby : but she had n't . stitch : yeah , i found that out later . look , i 've -- i 've kept your secret . i have n't told victoria about austin 's murder or any of the threatening messages . the least you could do is return the favor . and i 'm sure your mother would appreciate that , too . [ rapid knocking on door ] stitch : who is it ? dylan : it 's dylan . stitch : what 's up , mac ? [ chuckles ] dylan : uh , why do n't you tell me ? stitch : what do you mean ? and how 'd you know i was here ? dylan : uh , noah told me . what the hell is going on ? stitch : what are you talking about ? i mean , abby -- abby got mugged , and , uh , you know , victoria and i thought she needed someone to watch out for her , so i 'm playing temporary bodyguard . dylan : okay , yeah . what 's the rest of it ? stitch : the rest ? dylan : yeah . stitch , what is it y - you 're not telling me ? stitch : [ scoffs ] what are you talking about ? dylan : are you -- are you drunk ? stitch : not anymore . look , stay out of this , dylan . it 's none of your business . dylan : it was n't my business until i saw that sharon got a message like abby did . [ rapid knocking on door ] sharon : [ exhales sharply ] who is it ? nick : sharon , it 's me . open up . sharon : if you 're here to continue arguing , i 'm really not in the mood . nick : no , you took off in the middle of the conversation we were having , and we were not finished . [ sighs ] sharon : so , then , you came to apologize ? nick : apologize ? for what ? sharon : you can show yourself back outside . nick : sharon , we are not married . i do n't need your permission to start a new relationship . sharon : oh , a relationship ? is that what you call what i walked into -- a relationship with a married woman ? nick : look , i am over the jealous and petty comments . and i wo n't stand for it anymore . and i 'm certainly not gon na stand for you insulting sage . i do n't need you interfering in my life . and i do n't want you thinking we 're gon na get back together , because we 're not . and if you do think that , then i 'm guessing you 're off your meds again . sharon : oh , you are such a hypocrite . you butt into my life whenever you want , and then you order me to stay the hell out of yours . how is that fair ? nick : all 's fair when i 'm protecting our daughter , a task i was awarded in court . sharon : great , so we 're back to that again . you know , who are you to question my ability to parent our daughter ? faith means everything to me , and , no , i am not crazy for acting this way ! nick : okay , can we just take it down a level , please ? sharon : i just resent -- nick : we 're in the middle of a conversation about our daughter , sharon . sharon : i 've got to get this off . nick : get ... what off ? what are you talking about ? look , sharon , you do n't seem like yourself . i really think it 'd be best if you did n't see faith for a while . sharon : you ca n't do that . sharon : what nick did would 've put any other man in prison . he still might be rotting behind bars right now if he were n't a newman . nice , huh ? bet that wo n't end up on the cutting - room floor , huh , austin ? summer : [ sighs ] kevin : wow . kyle : tell me about it . that 's a hell of a story about nick . summer : yeah , if it 's even true . kevin : well , say it is . and say sharon decided she 'd made a mistake talking to austin about it , but he refused to delete the footage from his documentary . kyle : that would give her motive for killing him . mariah : or give victor and nick motive . summer : what motive ? mariah : what if they found out what sharon said and wanted to make sure that that video never saw the light of day ? summer : my dad and grandfather are not killers . kevin : and they were at the underground that night . kyle : i do n't know . maybe they had time to slip in and out before the ceiling fell in . who knows ? summer : time to get from the club to the cabin and back in a snowstorm ? mariah : it 's not impossible . summer : no , i am sure that there are plenty of witnesses who can place my family at underground the entire night . mariah : and that 's an alibi ? victor and nick could 've paid somebody to take austin out while people were `` seeing them `` at the club . summer : mariah , you know very well that my father is not capable of murder . you 're just saying that because you want sharon to be innocent . mariah : and you want her to be guilty . summer : no , sharon is capable of a lot of things , okay ? i 'm sure that she made up that whole story about my dad in her sick , twisted mind . kevin : all right . we will check it out , and we 'll see if it 's even possible nick was responsible . noah : [ sighs ] summer : noah . kyle : what did you find out ? mariah : what 'd dylan say ? noah : well , mom is in the clear . mariah : she is ? summer : uh , how did that happen ? noah : because she got a lipstick message , too . summer : what , at her house ? kevin : what did it say ? noah : it said , `` i know the truth , and so do you . `` summer : [ sighs ] mariah : well , i guess that crosses sharon off the list , then . summer : you know , with a mind as warped as sharon 's , she could 've easily written that message herself . noah : dylan is pretty sure she is n't off her meds . summer : yeah , which means she 's fully capable of planting that message to throw suspicion elsewhere . mariah : or she 's innocent ! kyle : okay , sharon did n't write the message , okay ? i did . sage : look , i am well aware of what the endgame is , adam . but lying to chelsea is making me sick . we are both lying to her . adam : so when did you develop a conscience ? sage : playing games with people 's emotions is wrong . adam : it is temporary . sage : this is lie upon lie . you think when she finds out the truth , she 's just gon na welcome you back with open arms ? adam : i guess that 's the chance that i 'm taking , is n't it ? i 'm putting all of my faith -- and believe me when i tell you this , i do not use that word lightly -- i 'm putting all of my faith ... sage : [ sighs ] adam : ... into the love that chelsea and i share . sage : what if it backfires ? what if she hates you forever ? i do n't want to be a part of this anymore , these lies -- adam : i am asking for your help . i need you right now . i 'm not threatening you . i 'm -- i 'm not forcing your hand . i am -- i 'm asking you respectfully . please , sage . i need this . continue to help me . now , you 've been in love before , right ? you know how that feels ? help me find that again . please . avery : joe , hi . i just wanted to let you know that i got gabriel bingham 's signature . uh , surprising , actually . he is a much different person than he is on paper . i 'm sorry , joe . something important just came across my desk . i 'll talk to you later . dylan : and that 's , uh -- that 's what noah told me . we are really worried about sharon . stitch : okay , none of this makes any sense . dylan : i know . i know . and noah did n't give me enough answers . and you -- why the hell did n't you go to the police with this ? abby : i 'll tell you why . 'cause if we go to the police , i end up dead . [ all shouting indistinctly ] kyle : look , i - i - i only wrote one of those messages , okay ? just the one to sharon ? mariah : why would you do that to her ? kyle : to ferret her out . mariah : by terrifying her ? ! kyle : no , to get her to confess -- noah : you put my mother through hell ! [ all shouting indistinctly ] noah : come on , kyle ! come on ! summer : noah , stop ! noah : what , you 're actually defending this guy , huh ? ! he 's tormenting my mom ! she 's innocent ! summer : noah , maybe not ! when you were gone , we found proof that points right to sharon . mariah : or victor ! kevin : or nick . nick : visitation is at my discretion . sharon : you did this ? nick : did what ? sharon : this message was from you ? was this your plan all along , nick -- to try to drive me crazy the way victor did ? nick : what are you talking about ? sharon : do n't pretend like you do n't know what i 'm talking about ! you wrote this ! nick : look , sharon , i 'm very concerned about you . let me call someone for you , maybe your doctor ? sharon : no , nick . i do n't need a shrink . i do n't need a straightjacket . what i need is for you to stop threatening to take my daughter away from me ! nick : i am trying to protect our daughter , and the best way i can do that is to keep her away from you . sharon : no . you ca n't . nick : the court says i can . sharon : i 'm supposed to see her tomorrow . nick : i 'm not gon na let her be around you when you 're acting like this . sharon : [ sighs ] nick : i 'll have noah come by and check on you tomorrow . sharon : [ crying ] nick , please do n't do this . nick : i 'll talk to you later . sharon : if you keep faith away from me , i am done keeping your secret ! i am gon na tell the whole world how you broke that girl 's neck ! [ next_on ] nick : if i do n't let you see faith , then you 're gon na tell the whole story . sharon : it 's your choice . victor : i 'm very happy for ashley . victoria : it did n't bother you when she threw jabot 's success in your face ? victor : before long , she 'll be working for me . both : i think we should put off the wedding . | stitch has a slip of the tongue and tells abby that the last time he got drunk , he took a shower to get sober and had sex with ashley . he asks abby not to tell anyone , because he and ashley promised to keep it a secret . kevin manages to see sharon 's interview video and the cabin group discovers that after nick committed a crime , victor paid a lot of money to keep nick out of jail . sharon gets a message in lipstick on the mirror at her house that says `` i know the truth and so do you . `` dylan encourages sharon to tell him the truth about the night austin died . sharon tells dylan that she already told him everything , and she is n't hiding anything from him . dylan sees the message on the mirror and sends a text to noah so they can talk . noah tells dylan that sharon and abby are being stalked and that they ca n't go to the police or they will be killed . | <s>[INST] abby : yeah , i think you 've depleted the mini bar . stitch : i need another drink . abby : you know what ? i 'm not sure that 's the best idea . fine , i will order you some more fresh booze , or maybe some less potent sustenance ? [ chuckles ] stitch : oh , abby . abby : oh ! you remember my name . good bodyguard . okay , what 's it gon na be , coffee or tequila ? stitch : no , no , no . you know , i - i - i should be -- i should be sober . abby : it 's okay , stitch . stitch : no , no , no , no . i 'm supposed to be protecting you . abby : [ chuckles ] i think you get a pass after what 's happened . stitch : no , no . you know , i need , uh ... i need coffee . abby : whoa , whoa , whoa . okay . um , okay . you sit , and i will order the coffee . stitch : no , forget the coffee . now ... abby : now ... ? stitch : i need a shower . yeah . i 'm gon na shower myself sober . abby : okay , yeah . um ... stitch : yeah . okay . abby : maybe -- maybe i should help ? stitch : no . no , no , no , no . you -- you stay there . uh ... last time someone helped me shower , i ... i cheated on victoria . [ grunting ] oh , god ! [ scene_break ] avery : i 'm the attorney representing the new head of the better days foundation . sage : yes , avery , i remember you . it 's so nice that you 'll be working with the foundation . how can i help ? avery : i just need gabriel 's signature on a few forms so that joe clark can take over the reins . sage : well , gabriel 's not home right now , but if you send over the papers , i 'll have him sign them right away . we 're so thrilled to keep the charity going . avery : well , joe will be very glad to hear that . thank you , sage . i 'll be in touch . bye - bye . sage : bye - bye . chelsea : hey . sage : chelsea , i did n't realize you were home . chelsea : i got home a while ago . i just put connor down for a nap . sage : i 'm surprised you 're not napping yourself after what charity going . avery : well , . we 're so thrilled to keep the charity going . sage : bye - bye .. we 're so thrilled to keep the charity going . avery : well , joe will be very glad to hear that . thank you , sage . i 'll be in touch . bye - bye . sage : bye - bye . chelsea : hey . sage : chelsea , i did n't realize you were home . chelsea : i got home a little while ago . i just put connor down for a nap . sage : i 'm surprised you 're not napping yourself after what you went through today . chelsea : gabe told you ? sage : yeah . of all the things , to get stuck in the middle of nowhere , miles away from a gas station . sounds like a disaster . chelsea : it ... should have been awful . [ chuckles ] sage : it was n't ? chelsea : you know , i do n't mind the fresh air and the open space . oh , do n't get me wrong . i love my penthouse and my high fashion life , but , um ... i do n't know . i have a soft spot for a quaint country farm . sage : you lived on a farm ? chelsea : i got married on one . sage : wow . sounds ... special . chelsea : yeah . there was a lot of love and joy in that sweet , simple ceremony . yeah , marrying adam was one of the happiest days of my life . sage : strange . chelsea : what -- you think it 's crazy that i would be sentimental about that ? sage : no , i was just thinking that you do n't glow like that when you talk about your present fiancé . adam : thank you . nick : gabe ? how 's it going ? adam : you really gon na play it that way ? just pretend like you did n't have sex with my wife ? mariah : this totally creeps me out . kevin : what ? me working on austin 's computer ? mariah : he is dead . kevin : well , i can brave the heebie - jeebies if it helps us figure out who killed him . mariah : does n't it totally gross you out that whoever did this had time to ransack his computer after bashing his head in ? kevin : how do you know they did n't ransack , then bash ? mariah : i do n't , but neither sounds very appealing . it 's the `` bash `` part that sucks . kevin : [ sighing ] yeah . ransacking , i can handle . bashing -- not so much . mariah : who knows what else he could 've done while we were passed out . i mean , if only we had opened our eyes for one second to see him . kevin : or her . sorry . mariah : it was n't sharon . but i would n't put it past nick . so , what dirt did you get from nick ? did he reveal anything , give anything away ? summer : just back off , mariah , please . noah : just give her a minute . summer : well , i still believe that my dad is 100 % innocent . mariah : i knew we should 've sent somebody else ! kevin : not helping . mariah : but she 's biased . kevin : so are you , the other way . so , what did nick have to say ? summer : it was just a normal , innocent conversation about letting the past stay in the past . kyle : but is n't that what someone who 's hiding something would say ? summer : or my dad was trying to put the criminal that we should be focusing on in the past . that criminal would be sharon . sharon : answer me , dylan . do you think i wrote that message to myself ? dylan : i mean , well , i -- sharon : do you think that ? dylan : sharon , you got to admit , you 've done some things in the past to get nick 's attention . sharon : so which is it ? am i conniving , or am i just completely nuts ? or do you think that i 'm both ? chelsea : if you do n't think i glow when i 'm talking about billy , i just do n't think you 've seen us in the right environment . sage : point taken . i 'm sorry for butting in . chelsea : no , no , no . it 's okay . i think you 're right , on some level , maybe . gabriel actually said the same thing when we were stuck on the side of the road . sage : what 'd he say ? chelsea : i do n't think he meant to be offensive or anything . i just think he really tapped into how deep my connection with adam was . sage : yeah , my husband can be perceptive , on occasion . chelsea : perceptive and ... sage : and what ? chelsea : a bit ... jealous . sage : [ chuckles ] why would he be jealous ? chelsea : i think he would like to have that connection with you , too . sage : we do n't have that type of marriage , chelsea . chelsea : i know that you two initially got together for more practical purposes , but i can see that there 's a greater bond between you than just this shared inheritance you 're set to receive . sage : is there ? chelsea : yeah ! i see the way you two look at each other , the looks you give one another . sage : disapproving ? annoyed ? chelsea : [ chuckles ] no , it looks like you guys have each other 's backs . sage : yes , that is one way to look at it . chelsea : hey , there are crazier ways to fall in love in this world . sage : i understand that you 're trying to be helpful , chelsea , but you do n't have to give me a primer on love . i know what it 's like to fall ... fall hard . chelsea : well , maybe that 's the issue . was there someone before gabriel , somebody that you ca n't get over ? sage : there was . a wonderful man ... a man whose shoes my husband is trying to fill . but he never will . nick : i miss something ? adam : sage 's wedding ring . [ scoffs ] nick : right , so , your marriage -- it 's based on the inheritance , right ? i mean , there 's no love there . unless there 's more to the story , gabe . adam : look . truth is , i do n't really give a damn who my wife sleeps with . nick : oh , yeah ? all right , then . what 's up ? adam : well , i 'd like her to be a little more discreet about it if she could . nick : why -- so you do n't get embarrassed ? adam : [ chuckles ] no , uh , so we do n't get caught , nick . we have a watchdog . and if we get busted , we lose every cent coming to us . nick : all right , so , just so we 're clear , you 're not jealous , then ? adam : no . no , not at all . not jealous . but ... still . i do n't want to see her get hurt . nick : how exactly am i hurting her ? adam : well , you know , i - i know how your ex , um -- what 's her name ? nick : sharon . adam : sharon . i know how sharon feels about you seeing sage . nick : yeah , well , sharon has some issues . adam : sharon has issues , yeah , probably because she feels like you unceremoniously dumped her . just , you know , repeating what i 've heard . nick : yeah , yeah . so , uh , what 's with the attitude ? is there some grudge in play here , some competitive thing from boarding school that i just do n't remember ? adam : no . nope . nick : you sure about that ? because i 'm detecting some hostility here . dylan : why do n't you sit down ? i 'll make you some tea . sharon : i do n't want any tea . i do n't even want you in my house if you refuse to believe me when i 'm telling you the truth . dylan : all right . i 'm listening . sharon : when did you turn against me like everyone else ? dylan : i have n't . sharon : then stop making hurtful assumptions . i 'm not pretending to be in danger to get nick away from sage . and i 'm not stalking myself because i 've gone completely delusional . i 'm taking my meds . i 'm seeing my therapist . and i 'm not losing my mind again , dylan . [ voice breaking ] i refuse to be pushed over the edge like i was before . i do n't care if everyone turns against me . i will remain sane , because i 'm not crazy ! i 'm normal ! i 'm a normal person ! and as far as i know , normal people get very upset when someone breaks into their house and leaves a threatening message ! [ crying ] please say you believe me . [ crying ] dylan : hey , i really need you to listen to me . i believe you . sharon : but there 's more . dylan : you got to understand why somebody would question this , given your history and -- and the effect nick has on you . sharon : this has nothing to do with nick . dylan : but it always has to do with nick , sharon , even -- even the night of the storm . sharon : that was a minor car accident . dylan : correct , i - it was . but you were really freaked out that nick would find out and take faith from you . sharon : and you think i was overreacting ? dylan : yes , a little bit . sharon : okay . well , then , i will have to do something about that . i will change that . i 'll talk about it with my therapist in my next session . dylan : well , i could be your sounding board until then . sharon : you would do that ? dylan : heck no . [ both laugh ] dylan : yes , i would do that , if you 're willing to be completely open with me . is there something more ? is there something else that happened that night ? sharon : what else could there be ? dylan : i do n't know . why do n't you walk me through it ? sharon : [ sniffles ] well , when the power went out , i probably should 've stayed here . but i felt like i needed to get faith to someplace warm and safe . it was already very cold , and faith would n't stop shivering . dylan : so , what -- you got faith in the car , and then ... sharon : i was headed to a hotel . but the storm got a lot worse than they predicted , and we skidded off the road -- luckily , not too far away from home , so we were able to trudge back . you think that i was wrong to be that upset ? dylan : it sounds to me like you thought things through , and you made the best decisions you could . sharon : thank you . dylan : who do you think did it ? sharon : i do n't know . dylan : [ sighs ] okay , well , i can stay so you do n't have to talk to the police alone . and then we can figure out who tried to scare you with a message like this . sharon : you should go , dylan . i can handle this myself . dylan : there 's no -- there 's no reason you have to . sharon : no , i mean , it 's -- it 's good for me . it 's good for me to face things on my own . and besides , you have a life of your own to get back to . dylan : are you sure ? sharon : i am . really . no , talking to you helped . dylan : okay . call me if you need anything . sharon : i will do that . dylan : mm - hmm . [ clears throat ] [ cell phone chimes ] noah : it 's dylan . kyle : what did he say ? noah : he wants to meet , about my mom . mariah : what 's going on ? noah : i do n't know . i 'll find out when i talk to him . summer : maybe dylan 's starting to have some doubts about sharon 's state of mind . what ? it makes sense . he would have to be really worried about something to want to talk to you again , right ? mariah : look , i know that you have your issues with sharon and that you 're trying to solve your husband 's murder , but you are making all of these accusations without any proof ! so please back off ! noah : look , i 'm just gon na see what dylan has to say , okay ? kyle : well ... mariah : [ sighs ] kyle : i hope dylan 's got some new information for us to go on , because we 've hit a dead end . kevin : no , we have n't . summer : we have n't ? kevin : no . i was just waiting for noah to leave . mariah : what 'd you find ? kevin : i decrypted sharon 's interview with austin . adam : look , any hostility that you 're sensing comes from my protectiveness over sage , all right ? we may have an arranged marriage , but we 're still friends , so ... nick : so i guess sage talked to you , then , about us . adam : yeah . yeah , she mentioned , uh -- mentioned to me about you guys 's fling . avery : nick ! hey , how are things ? nick : hey ! good ! uh , well , you know , i was just trying to figure that out myself , actually . avery : oh . you 're gabriel bingham . adam : i am . avery : yeah -- uh , i 'm sorry . um , i recognized you . we have n't been formally introduced . nick : ah . gabe bingham , avery clark . avery : very nice to meet you , mr. bingham . adam : oh , please , call me gabe . avery : call me avery . adam : okay . avery . avery : and if you have time , there 's a bit of business i 'd like to discuss with you , if i 'm not interrupting . nick : nah . join us . avery : great . thank you . so , i am working in conjunction with the better days foundation now . adam : know what ? i 'm gon na stop you right there . i was actually -- i was on my way out , but , um , tell you what . i 'd be more than willing to make a donation . sounds like a worthy cause . avery : y - yes , i would hope you think so ... since it 's your cause . abby : you had an affair ? what ? uh , where ? when ? why ? stitch : all right , i never should 've said that . just blame it on the alcohol . abby : but you did say it . stitch : ah , pretend you never heard it . [ sighs ] abby : when you 're living with my sister , when she 's in love with you ? no , you ... owe me an explanation . stitch : i just found out my sister is dead . i 'm not up to answering any questions . abby : [ sighs ] you know i 'm sorry about kelly , right ? stitch : yeah , i know . abby : but that 's not gon na stop me from looking out for victoria . [ scoffs ] who did you cheat with ? w - when did this happen ? i - is it still going on ? stitch : look , of course it is n't , okay ? and it was n't an affair , okay ? i just -- i just -- it was a one - time thing . just sex . abby : `` tomayto , `` `` tomahto . `` well , who did this `` just sex `` happen with ? who is this tramp ? stitch : does n't matter . abby : it matters to me . tell me . who is this skanky ho - bag ? stitch : okay , do n't call her names , 'cause i do n't think you 're in a position to do that . abby : fine . then give me another name to call her . i 'll take her first , last , middle initial . and you know what ? when i find her , i will rip her eyes out . stitch : no , you wo n't . abby : why the hell should n't i ? stitch : [ sighs ] 'cause she 's your mother . sage : he was charming ... funny ... a philanthropist . his smile and his heart could fill this room . chelsea : sounds like a great guy . sage : yeah . chelsea : what happened ? sage : um ... he died . chelsea : oh , sage , i 'm so sorry . i know what that feels like . i wish i did n't . sage : so do i . you ca n't know how much i mean that . chelsea : how long ago ? sage : too long . it 's been a little over a year for you , right ? and you 've already managed to move on with someone else ? is that what you 're trying to tell the world by marrying billy -- that you 're ready to let go of the man you loved ? chelsea : yeah , i ... [ clears throat ] i love billy . sage : but not as much as you loved adam ? chelsea : there 's something inside of me that ... [ sighs ] ... that wo n't let me completely commit to billy . it wo n't let me love him with the same kind of ... [ sighs ] my love for adam , it was just there . it was ... it was just there . i could n't run from it , and i could n't ignore it . and , um , i could n't stop it . i - i - i still ca n't . sage : where does that leave your feelings with billy ? chelsea : i 'm not sure . these are just regular p - pre - pre - wedding jitters , right ? i mean , that -- or would marrying billy be a mistake ? avery : your family has been behind the better days foundation for years . adam : yeah , no , i , um , would n't doubt that for a second . my grandmother was a phenomenal human being . she had her hand in -- in many charities . yeah . avery : but your signature is on several recent documents . your work with this charity has been pivotal . you 've attended board meetings . adam : yeah , well , i 've attended hundreds of different board meetings for hundreds of different charities , you know , over the years . and i 'm sure i 've been generous with my pocketbook , but it does n't necessarily mean that i was paying attention to the weekly minutes . let me take a quick look here . [ clears throat ] oh , yes , of course . the -- the -- the better days foundation . yeah . right , w - what 's your involvement ? nick : yeah , i 'm curious about that , too . avery : uh , after mrs. bingham 's death , an associate of mine , joe clark , was approached to restructure the charity . we just need your signature in a couple places . adam : yeah ? avery : yeah . adam : oh , okay . all right . i can do that for you . and here . and then i really do have to , uh -- have to be going . you take care of yourself . i 'll see you soon . very good to meet you . good luck with all this . avery : thank you . adam : thank you . avery : is it me , or was that completely weird ? nick : he did n't even look at what he was signing . avery : he just trusted me . nick : he does n't even know you . avery : i mean , i guess he could assume the best of someone working for a nonprofit ? nick : but you think you would 've known the name of the nonprofit , right ? avery : you would . it 's my understanding that he has been groomed to handle everything , right , from a young age ? nick : and gabe was always so passionate about causes . now all he cares about is money . avery : i had n't heard that . nick : oh , yeah . he 'll do anything to get his hands on money . avery : and that 's not the person you remember ? nick : less and less . dylan : hey . noah : hey . uh , so , w - what 's going on with my mom ? dylan : well , since you 've been worried about her , i just wanted to let you know that i had a long talk with her . and i do n't believe that she 's off her meds . noah : good . t - that 's good . that 's good to hear . it 's just , she 's been so upset for a while . dylan : yeah , yeah , with good reason . somebody 's messing with her head again . noah : what are they doing ? dylan : well , she got this message , uh , written in lipstick on one of her mirrors . noah : wow . uh ... are you sure ? dylan : yeah . yeah , i saw it . noah : uh , w - w - what did it say ? dylan : `` i know the truth , and so do you . `` does that mean something to you ? noah : mnh - mnh . no . um ... uh , but mom must be pretty freaked out right now , right ? dylan : yeah , she is . she 's really freaked out . and i think sharon 's scared that if she reported it , nobody would believe her . noah : yeah . dylan : so i 'm going to . noah : uh , uh , wait , wait , wait . [ sighs ] you ca n't do that . kevin : noah is so protective when it comes to sharon , i was worried how he would react to this . so i thought it 'd be better if we watched it without him first just in case it 's really bad . you ready ? mariah : we 've got to find out . sharon : nick may pretend that he 's nothing like victor . but the truth is , he 's no different than anyone else in the newman family . they all use their name , their family influence , their money to take exactly what they want . and it does n't matter who gets hurt . promises mean nothing . there are dirty dealings that go way back ... things that the press never even got wind of . especially this one thing . victor paid a lot of money to cover it up , and it was really awful . i 'm amazed that he got away with it . to this day , no one ever found out . and it was n't even victor 's crime . it was nick 's . dylan : somebody is scaring your mom . you remember what happened last time somebody played head games with sharon . noah : i know . she ended up in a psychiatric wing . dylan : exactly . that 's why we need to get to the bottom of this right now . noah : okay , fine . we will , okay ? but the police ca n't be involved . dylan : why not ? noah : look , i want my mom safe more than anything . but there 's more going on . dylan : what do you -- what -- like what ? noah : things that i know that i ca n't -- it might be safer for my mom if the cops are n't involved . dylan : how could that be ? noah ? noah : the message . it 's not the -- it 's not the first one . dylan : wait , sharon 's gotten other messages ? noah : no , not my mom . there was a message like that on abby 's phone when she was knocked unconscious ... a threat warning her about what would happen if she went to the police . and then she got another one at victoria 's . that 's why stitch is with abby at the club right now . he 's watching out for her , because the police can not know about this . dylan : who 's been writing these messages , and what do they think abby and your mom have done ? noah : i ca n't tell you . dylan : but if you 're this worried -- noah : i 'm afraid i 've told you too much already , okay ? just do n't go to the cops . dylan : noah , come on ! nick : must be pretty awkward , working with your ex - husband . avery : no , look at us . we get along great . nick : yeah , well , i 'm just an ex - fiancé . and i never tried to shut down anyone 's business . how 's dylan feel about that ? avery : you know , i have come to realize that dylan will never like joe . nick : pretty safe bet . avery : yes , but it is for a very worthy cause . nick : and that 's why you 're doing it . avery : yes , that 's why i 'm doing it . and dylan will be fine . nick : we 'll see about that . dylan : hey . avery : hi ! hey . dylan : uh , you ready for dinner ? avery : oh , i wish . i have to file some papers . can we eat later ? dylan : uh , yeah , sure . i actually have something to take care of myself . see you . nick : what 's up ? avery : he 'll be fine . chelsea : i 'm sure i 'm just over - thinking all of this . things will work out fine with billy . [ door opens ] sage : gabriel , hello . adam : hi . sage : how was the rest of your day ? did you get the gas gauge fixed ? adam : uh , no . i - i did n't . um , guess i do n't have to ask you how your day went , do i ? chelsea : um ... adam : recovered yet ? chelsea : uh , absolutely . adam : yeah ? chelsea : yeah . excuse me . adam : you know , i thought i 'd made some headway with her earlier . guess not . sage : no , your guess is wrong . that hasty exit is because you did make headway . adam : what do you mean ? sage : i never understood what chelsea saw in you . but , clearly , she gets you on a whole different level . adam : did she say that ? sage : she 'd been reminiscing about her marriage before you walked in , and questioning her current engagement . adam : really ? this is great . and you 're not happy about that ? sage : no . i 'm not enjoying any of this . abby : my mother slept with the guy that my sister 's in love with . stitch : now can we drop it ? abby : did you really sleep with my mom ? stitch : ashley and i agreed not to tell anyone . abby : okay , well , when did it happen ? give me a date , a - a timeframe . stitch : abby , i am not going there with you , okay ? it was one night . i 'd had a lot to drink , and i was n't thinking straight . [ sighs ] that mixed in with the heady scent of hex throughout the lab , and , well ... abby : wait , you -- you did it in the lab ? but there -- there 's no shower in the -- the shower in my mom 's office . stitch : what do you want -- a map drawn out for you ? abby : yeah ! stitch : all right . this discussion is over . [ sighs ] abby : does victoria have any idea ? stitch : unh - unh . and you ca n't tell her . stitch : the only reason that night ever happened with ashley is because i thought victoria had gotten back together with billy . abby : but she had n't . stitch : yeah , i found that out later . look , i 've -- i 've kept your secret . i have n't told victoria about austin 's murder or any of the threatening messages . the least you could do is return the favor . and i 'm sure your mother would appreciate that , too . [ rapid knocking on door ] stitch : who is it ? dylan : it 's dylan . stitch : what 's up , mac ? [ chuckles ] dylan : uh , why do n't you tell me ? stitch : what do you mean ? and how 'd you know i was here ? dylan : uh , noah told me . what the hell is going on ? stitch : what are you talking about ? i mean , abby -- abby got mugged , and , uh , you know , victoria and i thought she needed someone to watch out for her , so i 'm playing temporary bodyguard . dylan : okay , yeah . what 's the rest of it ? stitch : the rest ? dylan : yeah . stitch , what is it y - you 're not telling me ? stitch : [ scoffs ] what are you talking about ? dylan : are you -- are you drunk ? stitch : not anymore . look , stay out of this , dylan . it 's none of your business . dylan : it was n't my business until i saw that sharon got a message like abby did . [ rapid knocking on door ] sharon : [ exhales sharply ] who is it ? nick : sharon , it 's me . open up . sharon : if you 're here to continue arguing , i 'm really not in the mood . nick : no , you took off in the middle of the conversation we were having , and we were not finished . [ sighs ] sharon : so , then , you came to apologize ? nick : apologize ? for what ? sharon : you can show yourself back outside . nick : sharon , we are not married . i do n't need your permission to start a new relationship . sharon : oh , a relationship ? is that what you call what i walked into -- a relationship with a married woman ? nick : look , i am over the jealous and petty comments . and i wo n't stand for it anymore . and i 'm certainly not gon na stand for you insulting sage . i do n't need you interfering in my life . and i do n't want you thinking we 're gon na get back together , because we 're not . and if you do think that , then i 'm guessing you 're off your meds again . sharon : oh , you are such a hypocrite . you butt into my life whenever you want , and then you order me to stay the hell out of yours . how is that fair ? nick : all 's fair when i 'm protecting our daughter , a task i was awarded in court . sharon : great , so we 're back to that again . you know , who are you to question my ability to parent our daughter ? faith means everything to me , and , no , i am not crazy for acting this way ! nick : okay , can we just take it down a level , please ? sharon : i just resent -- nick : we 're in the middle of a conversation about our daughter , sharon . sharon : i 've got to get this off . nick : get ... what off ? what are you talking about ? look , sharon , you do n't seem like yourself . i really think it 'd be best if you did n't see faith for a while . sharon : you ca n't do that . sharon : what nick did would 've put any other man in prison . he still might be rotting behind bars right now if he were n't a newman . nice , huh ? bet that wo n't end up on the cutting - room floor , huh , austin ? summer : [ sighs ] kevin : wow . kyle : tell me about it . that 's a hell of a story about nick . summer : yeah , if it 's even true . kevin : well , say it is . and say sharon decided she 'd made a mistake talking to austin about it , but he refused to delete the footage from his documentary . kyle : that would give her motive for killing him . mariah : or give victor and nick motive . summer : what motive ? mariah : what if they found out what sharon said and wanted to make sure that that video never saw the light of day ? summer : my dad and grandfather are not killers . kevin : and they were at the underground that night . kyle : i do n't know . maybe they had time to slip in and out before the ceiling fell in . who knows ? summer : time to get from the club to the cabin and back in a snowstorm ? mariah : it 's not impossible . summer : no , i am sure that there are plenty of witnesses who can place my family at underground the entire night . mariah : and that 's an alibi ? victor and nick could 've paid somebody to take austin out while people were `` seeing them `` at the club . summer : mariah , you know very well that my father is not capable of murder . you 're just saying that because you want sharon to be innocent . mariah : and you want her to be guilty . summer : no , sharon is capable of a lot of things , okay ? i 'm sure that she made up that whole story about my dad in her sick , twisted mind . kevin : all right . we will check it out , and we 'll see if it 's even possible nick was responsible . noah : [ sighs ] summer : noah . kyle : what did you find out ? mariah : what 'd dylan say ? noah : well , mom is in the clear . mariah : she is ? summer : uh , how did that happen ? noah : because she got a lipstick message , too . summer : what , at her house ? kevin : what did it say ? noah : it said , `` i know the truth , and so do you . `` summer : [ sighs ] mariah : well , i guess that crosses sharon off the list , then . summer : you know , with a mind as warped as sharon 's , she could 've easily written that message herself . noah : dylan is pretty sure she is n't off her meds . summer : yeah , which means she 's fully capable of planting that message to throw suspicion elsewhere . mariah : or she 's innocent ! kyle : okay , sharon did n't write the message , okay ? i did . sage : look , i am well aware of what the endgame is , adam . but lying to chelsea is making me sick . we are both lying to her . adam : so when did you develop a conscience ? sage : playing games with people 's emotions is wrong . adam : it is temporary . sage : this is lie upon lie . you think when she finds out the truth , she 's just gon na welcome you back with open arms ? adam : i guess that 's the chance that i 'm taking , is n't it ? i 'm putting all of my faith -- and believe me when i tell you this , i do not use that word lightly -- i 'm putting all of my faith ... sage : [ sighs ] adam : ... into the love that chelsea and i share . sage : what if it backfires ? what if she hates you forever ? i do n't want to be a part of this anymore , these lies -- adam : i am asking for your help . i need you right now . i 'm not threatening you . i 'm -- i 'm not forcing your hand . i am -- i 'm asking you respectfully . please , sage . i need this . continue to help me . now , you 've been in love before , right ? you know how that feels ? help me find that again . please . avery : joe , hi . i just wanted to let you know that i got gabriel bingham 's signature . uh , surprising , actually . he is a much different person than he is on paper . i 'm sorry , joe . something important just came across my desk . i 'll talk to you later . dylan : and that 's , uh -- that 's what noah told me . we are really worried about sharon . stitch : okay , none of this makes any sense . dylan : i know . i know . and noah did n't give me enough answers . and you -- why the hell did n't you go to the police with this ?

gloria : your brother called me . and i should not have heard this from him . why did n't you pick up the phone and let me know ? kevin : you 're the reinforcements ? gloria : [ chuckles ] not chloe . you know , i could strangle her for dumping you , driving you , once again , into a life of crime . kevin : not helping . gloria : well , let 's hope your brother 's on the case , getting his little brother released on some technicality or other . kevin : no . he 's with another client , so i 'm trapped in here . gloria : okay . well , not to worry . i will walk you through your terrible claustrophobia . kevin : how are you gon na do that ? they 're sending me back to holding . gloria : oh , well , then , when you 're in that deep , dark , dank cell , feeling the walls closing in on you ... kevin : mom ! gloria : ... just think of bright , blue , open skies , hmm ? tut , tut , tut ! sit . sit . excuse , but i have a few more things to say to my son , if you do n't mind . i ca n't believe michael walked out on you , deserting his family in our time of need . michael : do not blame michael , mom . i got myself into this . gloria : oh . i guess someone , then -- someone is going to have to step up and save the day . kevin : how are you gon na do that ? gloria : mm . [ chuckles ] who 's in charge around here ? kevin : detective harding , but -- mom , no ! gloria : excuse me . are you , um [ clears throat ] captain harding ? harding : detective , ma'am , but yes , i 'm harding . how can i help you ? gloria : well , are n't you just the sweetest thing ? i am in desperate need of ... undercover work . billy : you know , if you need help clearing out your locker ... stitch : dr. shelby , i know how bad this looks . barton : [ sighs ] do you ? stitch : yes , i do . but i swear to you , my past has never interfered with my practice in medicine . being a doctor has always been more than a job to me . it 's been ... when everything i loved was lost , medicine was all i had . being a great doctor -- it 's what i live for . my record at memorial -- it 's been spotless . barton : and you think this will make up for everything that you 've done ? stitch : i suppose i 'm hoping you 'll remember that , despite my deceit , i 've helped people . i 've saved lives . i 'm truly sorry i wo n't be able to save more . barton : the hospital board will have to meet about this . the fraudulent way you obtained your medical license -- stitch : look , i understand i 'm finished at the hospital . barton : oh , there will be further ramifications -- not just at memorial , but most likely , legal ones , too . just because you quit does n't make it all right , mr. rayburn or whatever the hell your name is . victor : just gather yourself , my sweetheart , okay ? you want some water ? nikki : no , thanks . i keep thinking about victoria and this news about stitch -- how it 's gon na upset her . victor : sweetheart , dismiss all thoughts about this ben rayburn or stitch or whatever his name is , all right ? focus on the task at hand . nikki : yeah . michael : victor , nikki . nikki : oh , dylan . i was n't expecting to see you . dylan : i wanted to be here . did n't expect all those reporters outside , though . nikki : yeah . michael : did you use the other entrance ? victor : thanks for the warning . i thought this was a closed trial . michael : it was supposed to be , but somehow , it got leaked . victor : ian ward ? michael : that 's my guess . nikki : [ sighs ] dylan : try not to be nervous , okay ? nikki : i ca n't help it . i mean , if ian wins , he 's gon na have more than enough money to get a good foothold in genoa city , and then this will never end . he 'll be lying in wait for any opportunity to hurt me and my family . victor : sweetheart , i promise you , no matter what the judge decides , ian ward will not beat us . all right ? dylan : i mean , could it -- could it happen ? could ian win ? michael : oh , i mean , it 's possible . dylan : i mean , how could any judge in their right mind side with ian after hearing nikki 's testimony ? nikki : i am so sorry you had to hear all that . dylan : no , it 's okay . it 's okay . i 'm fine . nikki : [ sighs ] it really upsets me to think that we might have to pay ian for disrupting our lives . and even worse , if the judge rules in his favor , that will just validate every horrible thing ian has ever said about me . michael : all right . you 're talking like we 've already been defeated . listen , we have a very , very strong chance of winning this case . nikki : where 's paul ? michael : he 's not gon na make it . dylan : is it 'cause of me ? i know things got a little tense after the testimony . nikki : no . he 's not upset with you . his issues are solely with me , my actions . dylan : all three of us are still trying to wrap our head around paul being my father . we got a lot to work out . michael : okay , listen , you 're both making too much out of this . christine took him away for a little `` r `` and `` r `` . he probably did n't even get the message that the verdict was in . victor : sweetheart , it does n't make any difference if paul is here or not , okay ? right now , your whole family is behind you . there . nikki : oh , my god . victoria , nicholas , thank you both for being here . nick : of course we 'd be here . victoria : we 're not going anywhere . nikki : all those reporters outside . nick : yeah , we ignored them . nikki : sweetheart , i just heard about stitch . it must be so upsetting . victoria : mom , look , i do n't want you worrying about that right now , okay ? nikki : i - i know . just tell me how you are . victoria : i 'm okay . i 'm dealing with it . nick : victoria has backup . dylan : from both of us . victoria : thank you . nikki : well , it 's nice to see my children getting along despite this horrible mess i 've gotten you all into . victoria : right now , let 's just focus on defeating ian , okay ? gloria : harding , ooh , what a very strong name . i suppose you 've heard all about me from , um , alex . oh , i mean detective chavez . he was hopelessly smitten with me , you know ? harding : no , i did n't know that . gloria : i believe that i 'm the reason he left town . harding : you ? gloria : yes . he was brokenhearted because he knew ... that he could n't have me . harding : okay . henderson , lock him up , please . gloria : no , no , no ! no , please ! you ca n't . he is my star witness . i am the victim of a horrible crime . and that is why i need a big , strong detective like you . harding : ju -- wh - what crime , ma'am ? gloria : please call me gloria . i mean , the whole thing is baffling . do you know my brilliant son who has worked tirelessly to uphold the law finds himself arrested . now , why is that ? harding : well , fisher here is , uh , accused of theft , cybercrime -- gloria : [ laughs ] oh , please . that 's a misunderstanding . harding : well , i do n't see how finding a stolen i.d . badge in his desk could be misunderstood . gloria : really ? did it ever occur to you that the badge was found in his desk because kevin solved the mystery of the missing i.d . himself ? harding : no , ma'am . that -- that never occurred to me . gloria : well , it should have been the first thing you thought of . because of his investigative computer work , my son has brought down many a criminal in genoa city . this town would fall apart without him . harding : is that so ? gloria : i would never lie to a fearless and very handsome detective like you . harding . kevin : [ sighs ] the holding cell would be a step up from this . [ sighs ] faith : i blocked you . mariah : oh , my gosh . you are way too good at this game . [ chuckles ] so , what are your dad 's favorite things ? faith : sports . he 's always watching that on tv . mariah : anything else ? faith : i do n't know . more sports . it 's your turn . mariah : well , i mean , there must be other things that he likes , right ? faith : he likes playing wedding with me . mariah : what about music ? is there any music that he listens to or foods that he likes to eat ? faith : peach pie . he loves that . mariah : nice . well , uh , why are n't your mom and dad married anymore ? faith : daddy said people do n't have to be married . mariah : really ? faith : mm - hmm . i think he 's scared to get married to mommy . mariah : well , maybe there 's a way that i could help your dad out . ian : i hope we can handle this as adults . dylan : you call this adult ? dragging us all through this joke of a trial ? ian : you know , one of the biggest fans of nicole 's seems to be missing from the proceedings . or is it possible that police chief williams has finally deduced who the real guilty party really is ? victoria : i think you should worry about your own fan club . my mother has more people behind her than you ever will . ian : well , all i need at the moment is one person -- the judge . and i believe he felt my pain . victor : let 's not engage this pathetic scoundrel any longer . ian : that could be the grounds for another lawsuit , victor , for slander . all rise ! judge ramsey : [ clears throat ] you may be seated . as you know , i have reached my decision . this lawsuit has been a series of malicious attacks and painful revelations , but what i find most disturbing is that a mother robbed a son of his father . stitch : so you just made up you 're mind i 'm just some cold - blooded killer , huh ? billy : ca n't argue with the facts . stitch : [ scoffs ] you think it 's just cut and dry like that , huh ? black and white ? billy : you do n't ? stitch : i was a kid , billy . this is ancient history . it has no bearing on the man that i am today . i 've been good to victoria , and always would have been . billy : i hope that you 're not looking for some ... medal of approval here . stitch : and what are you looking for ? victoria 's love ? you have completely tanked my life , and why ? why have you done that ? to get back something you lost because of your own actions . billy : what about your actions ? stitch : yeah . let 's -- let 's look at those . the patients that i 've treated and healed , people from your own family , even -- even you . i mean , i even helped save your niece 's life by finding out what pills she o.d . 'd on . billy : you know , i - i do n't care . i do n't want a convicted murderer around my son . billy : there was that night last fall . i had been on a 16-hour shift , was about to go home , when they brought in this little girl -- hit and run . billy : do n't . do n't . stitch : billy , i stayed all night . i did everything i could , took on every case at the e.r . so that the best doctors , the best nurses , all the resources in the hospital could be spent helping that little girl . no one asked me to . i just did it . and when i found out she did n't make it ... i found a nice , quiet room up on the third floor , and i just broke down and cried . just talking about it now , i 'm kind of a mess . that 's the kind of doctor i am , billy . it 's the kind of doctor i was . judge ramsey : you , mrs. newman , should have made reasonable efforts to determine who , indeed , was the father of your child . being young , being naive , um -- these are not excuses for such poor judgment . none of us would be here today if you had simply considered the fact that mr. williams and not mr. ward could have been the father of mr. mcavoy . nikki : your honor , i truly did believe that ian was the father . judge ramsey : you are not getting off any easier , mr. ward . i find your actions particularly repulsive , and you do n't have the naiveté of youth to use as an excuse . you slept with a young girl , one of your cult , who you claim you tried to save . you had this affair behind your wife 's back , and then , after entering this sexual relationship , you showed no concern whatsoever about the well - being of this young girl . and given the fact that you used medical proof of your sterility to avoid a paternity suit in another court of law , this court finds it absurd that you would now try to dismiss it so summarily in order to win this case . therefore i find that the plaintiff acted , in this court 's opinion , unethically . and i dismiss this case with prejudice , meaning , as your attorneys will inform you , this case can not be brought back to court . i would offer you congratulations , mrs. newman , but i do n't think there are any winners in this courtroom . [ bangs gavel ] bailiff : all rise ! nikki : is it over ? michael : yes . congratulations . nikki : [ chuckles ] thank you so much , michael . michael : you 're very welcome . look , i have another client . victor : come here , sweetheart . [ whispering indistinctly ] nikki : [ chuckles ] ian : so , what 's our next move ? david : well , you heard the judge . now that 's he 's ruled with prejudice ... ian : but there must be some way we can salvage something out of this . david : sorry , mr. ward , but there 's nothing to be done in the matter . ian : [ sighs ] nikki : thank you so much for standing by me . it means the world to me . dylan : of course . it was a clear case of right and wrong , and ian was wrong . nikki : well , i was wrong , too . all those things i wrote when i was younger -- dylan : oh , you know what ? it 's water under a bridge a million miles from here . nikki : but it had to have hurt you to hear them . i 'm sorry i had to drudge up all that horrible stuff . dylan : i 'm just glad this went well for you . victor : i think a celebration is in order . why do n't you all join us ? nikki : this whole thing came up so suddenly . i totally forgot i have a meeting at the hospital for a charity event . victor : what , you ca n't miss it ? nikki : no , i - i ca n't . victoria : in that case , would you like some company ? nikki : well , in my meeting ? victoria : well , i have a meeting at the hospital . i 'm meeting my obstetrician . we can catch up on the way , if you want . nikki : sure . that would be great . victoria : good . nikki : thank you , darling . you 've been wonderful . victor : you 're welcome . nick : congratulations , mom . nikki : i 'll see you all later . victor : okay . nikki : oh , excuse me . well , you did n't beat me , ian . it 's all over now . you lost . come on , sweetheart . nick : hey , thanks for letting us know that the judge 's decision was happening today . dylan : i 'm just , uh , glad the ruling came down in our favor . victor : but you still have some doubt . dylan : you got to wonder -- will ian realize there 's nothing left for him here ? nick : most smart guys would move on . you think he will ? victor : yeah , most smart guys would . but who the hell knows what that s.o.b . is up to now . nick : [ pats arm ] gloria : you really must let me touch your guns . harding : ma'am , uh -- miss fisher , um -- gloria : unh - unh . call me gloria . ooh ! strong . that 's nice . [ telephone rings ] harding : i have to get that . gloria : very nice . yes ! i think we have made significant progress . kevin : the only progress you 've made is towards getting yourself thrown in jail . gloria : shh ! michael : oh , i 'm glad you 're both here . kevin : yeah , and soon , you 're gon na have two clients instead of one . do you know what she 's been up to since you abandoned me ? michael : gloria 's been working her magic . gloria : yes . i still have that certain touch . kevin : why would you call our mother and not another lawyer or a priest ? michael : it looks to me like she 's been helping out . gloria : thank you , michael . kevin : you 're both insane . the only thing she 's done is thrown herself at harding . gloria : for a very worthy cause , angel . michael : i knew you 'd do something outrageous . [ both chuckle ] michael : and has n't she kept you out of your cell for a little while longer ? she bought us time . gloria : yes . kevin : that was the -- that was the plan ? gloria : mm - hmm . kevin : huh . gloria : [ chuckles ] kevin : all right . fine . for once , mom 's craziness actually helped . gloria : i think i 'm offended by that . there is nothing crazy about my diversionary tactics . harding : fisher , you 're free to go . kevin : what ? what do you mean ? harding : really get your hearing checked . you 're free to go . kevin : i do n't have to go back to the cell ? michael : uh , not at this point . gloria : thank you , thank you , thank you , mr. big , strong , handy , hearty man . my little boy has been released thanks to me . harding : well , you can chalk that up to the a.d.a . buying baldwin 's argument . she 's not gon na pursue a case against kevin . gloria : okay , the a.d.a . if you want to play it that way , that 's the game we 'll play . so long , smoothy . remember me to alex . nikki : now that this lawsuit is over , i 'm gon na be there for my daughter . victoria : you have been , mom , this whole time . nikki : how can i help you with this situation with stitch ? victoria : [ sighs ] well , there 's not much anyone can do at this point . nikki : do you know yet if he 's the baby 's father ? victoria : i have n't taken the paternity test . nikki : why not ? victoria : well , for now , i do n't want to know whose child i 'm carrying . nikki : okay . victoria : i know you do n't approve . nikki : honey , i was just chastised in court for not identifying the father of my baby early on . victoria : [ sighs ] mom , that was a completely different situation . one of the men who might have been your child 's father was n't a convicted murderer . nikki : no , he was just a sociopath . at least stitch is likable . victoria : gosh , my poor baby . what kind of a father have i given him ... or her ? nikki : sweetheart , you have given your baby a wonderful life with a loving mother who ca n't wait to welcome them into her life . victoria : [ chuckles ] yeah . you know , you did that for dylan . nikki : well , dylan was raised well , just not by me . and it cost him and paul . sweetheart , please learn from my mistakes . victoria : all right . i 'm just waiting a little while before i confirm if the baby is billy 's or ben 's . nikki : okay . i - i just have to say , though , i - i ca n't imagine that it would benefit you or the baby not knowing . victoria : oh , mom . please try to understand , okay ? nikki : i do . victoria : okay . nikki : i do . whatever you decide , i will stand by you . victoria : thank you . i appreciate it . nikki : okay . victoria : uh , mom ... should n't you head off that way ? going to the board room , right ? nikki : yeah . [ chuckles ] all right . call me if you need anything . victoria : i will . i love you . nikki : i love you . nick : i 'm home ! mariah : hi . i did n't , uh -- i did n't hear you come in . nick : yeah . uh - oh . looks like you got roped into one of faith 's art projects . mariah : oh , yeah . [ chuckles ] i did n't realize i 'm all messy . i 'm actually fixing you dinner -- um , you -- you and faith . nick : a home - cooked meal ? mariah : yes . and it 's looking pretty tasty , might i add . [ chuckles ] nick : wow . you would do that for me ? i mean , all i did was make you a sandwich . mariah : yes , but you cut off the crusts . nick : which does make it gourmet . [ both chuckle ] nick : uh , honestly , mariah , you do not have to do that for us . mariah : no , no . i wanted to do something to help out once . i mean , you guys have done so much more for me . but i want to hear about the lawsuit . what happened ? nick : ian lost . his case was thrown out completely . mariah : well , congrats ! nick : oh ! nick : okay . there we go . all right , so , why are you so happy ? i mean , my mom winning means your pal ian lost . mariah : well , ian will bounce back . but i 'm happy for you , nick . i know how important this was to you . nick : yeah , justice was done . what -- what is that smell ? is that -- is that peach pie ? mariah : yeah , it is . nick : peach pie 's my favorite . mariah : no ! nick : yes . mariah : [ chuckles ] what a coincidence -- it 's mine , too . billy : hey . i assume the news has made the rounds . dylan : yeah , i heard . billy : turns out i was right not to back off my investigation of stitch . the guy 's a murderer . dylan : i 'm still having a hard time believing that 's true . billy : want me to give you some proof ? or maybe you 'd like to get it from his secret sister , kelly . she can back up the whole story . dylan : i do n't need to hear anymore about this . billy : still defending your old buddy ? still on his side ? dylan : [ sighs ] no . and i 'm not on yours , either . billy : so , what then ? you 're neutral ? dylan : no , i 'm standing on the only side that counts , and that 's where you and stitch should be , too -- on victoria 's side -- hers and the baby 's . billy : [ sighs ] victoria : what are you doing ? is that all your stuff ? stitch : yeah . yeah , i 'm , um -- i 'm done here . victoria : you 're -- you 're leaving the hospital ? stitch : the truth is out . i lied about my name , my prison record . there 's no way i can practice medicine now . victoria : ever ? stitch : for now , i 've been asked to take a leave of absence . victoria : oh . for how long ? stitch : i wo n't know until my case goes before the hospital board . after that , i , uh ... victoria : ben ... stitch : what is it , vicki ? victoria : i ca n't help feeling that you 're holding something back -- that , i do n't know , maybe that 's just me wishing . stitch : for what ? victoria : [ sighs ] that i was n't so wrong about you . i mean , with everything that 's come out , what else is there ? stitch : i made my choices , and i got to live with them . victor : may i have a word with you , mr. ward ? ian : i 'll just be a moment . what is it , victor ? victor : do n't you ever make the mistake of coming after my family again . nikki : my name is nikki , and i 'm an alcoholic . david : well , [ sighs ] i , uh , thought we had a good shot going into this . sorry we lost the case . ian : oh , all is not lost . nikki : i even sat at that bar , the one where i had been staring at all the liquor bottles . i nearly ordered a drink . i let the stress get to me . i - i was just so nervous that ... my resolve wavered . i did n't even want to tell my family that i was coming to this meeting . but fortunately , things have worked out in such a way that i should n't be so tempted again . ian : the lawsuit may have failed , but i still have one last weapon left in my arsenal , one that they 'll never see coming . nope . [ next_on ] lily : now if only i can get my dad to move on with a new woman . hilary : shut up ! austin : it 's about my trial . a date 's been set . mariah : why did you have me if you never even wanted me , mom ? nick : you told sharon your mother was dead . | nick invites victoria to go swimming with him and faith . when mariah goes home , victoria lashes out at her . ian visits dylan at the coffeehouse to let him know that the judge reached a decision . at the athletic club , nikki is on the phone with michael and tells him that the judge reached a decision . nikki eyes the booze behind the bar . kevin asks michael about his arraignment , but michael just says he is due in court . victor comes up to join nikki and finds out that the judge reached a decision . billy confronts ben and dr. shelby in the dining room of the athletic club . nikki and victor join them and wants to know what is going on . ben takes the file and hands it to dr. shelby and tells him that this was what he was going to tell him . dr. shelby looks at the file . victoria blasts mariah for using her looking like cassie to manipulate the family . victoria and nick both get a call that the judge reached a decision . mariah offers to babysit faith while they are gone . ian tells dylan that he will share his wealth with him should he win the case . dylan refuses any amount of the money . although kevin begs michael to help him , michael tells him that reinforcements are on the way . ben tells dr. shelby that he is n't who he thinks he is -- he took someone else 's identity and killed someone . ben also lets him know that he will tender his resignation . | <s>[INST] nick : all right . where are you headed now ? victoria : uh , home , i guess , where i will bounce back and forth between worrying about how the judge will rule in mom 's case or which of the two men i just kicked out of my life is my baby 's daddy . nick : you could do that . or you could come swimming with me and faith . victoria : you are the most excellent brother , nick newman . nick : so , no cannonball contest , then ? you 'd rather worry alone . victoria : yeah . for now . but whether i decide between billy or ben , whatever happens there , it 's good to know you have my back . nick : always . mariah : hi . nick : hey . uh , victoria , this is mariah . victoria : yeah , i figured . nick : i guess you did n't see her the other day when you stopped by the underground . mariah : do you want to see my cassie impression ? [ chuckles ] victoria : do n't insult my niece by comparing yourself to her . ian : dylan , i 'm here to apologize . dylan : no , you are n't . ian : do you doubt me ? dylan : i doubt you 're sorry for anything you 've ever done . ian : no , i 'm not apologizing for myself . dylan : like i said . ian : i 'm here to extend my sympathies for all of the harsh revelations you had to endure in court . dylan : oh , you mean the way nikki called you out for using her ? no , i 'm good with that . ian : yeah , but you could n't have been good with all those words of rejection that came directly from your own mother . nicole 's testimony , the passages from her journal -- they must have cut you right down to the bone . i mean , how could any mother admit to her own flesh and blood that he was n't wanted ? dylan : are you done ? [ cell phone beeps ] ian : no . your mother is . now we 'll see who the real liar is . the judge 's ruling is in . nikki : yes , michael , i am worried . we did n't expect the judge to take this long to make a decision . is n't that a bad sign ? michael : well , it could go either way . nikki : i opened up my private diary , caused all that pain . if that was for nothing ... michael : do n't get ahead of yourself , nikki , okay ? nikki : [ sighs ] what do you think the judge is gon na do ? michael : i 'm not gon na venture any guesses at this point . nikki : what if the ruling goes against us ? michael : we 'll fight it . nikki : oh , my god , and go through all of this again ? [ sighs ] i do n't know how much fight i 've got left . michael : okay . i 'll meet you at the courthouse . bye . kevin : you 're going to the courthouse ? you 're getting me released . michael : uh , kevin -- kevin : michael , you are the best -- getting my bail hearing moved up so quickly . michael : kevin , i 'm headed to court for nikki 's case . kevin : what about me and my case ? you promised you were gon na help me . michael : and i 'm trying to do that . kevin : you know how i am . i can not spend another minute in that cell . victor : what 's the matter , my sweetheart ? nikki : oh , victor . the judge has made his ruling . we do n't even have time to eat . victor : my love ... [ smooches ] i am absolutely certain he will rule in our favor , okay ? so come on . nikki : okay . barton : i do n't appreciate your rude interruption . billy : even if it will protect your hospital ? barton : whatever news you think you might have that might interest me , you can leave it with my office . that way , i can go back to toasting dr. rayburn 's promotion . billy : [ chuckles ] promotion ? no , i do n't think so . barton : what is going on here ? stitch : dr. shelby , this is what i was -- billy : victor , nikki , please join us . nikki : what is this about ? billy : oh , i think that victor would like to be one of the first to know the truth about the guy that he 's been pushing on his daughter . stitch : is this how you want to do this ? what do you have to gain from this , billy ? you got victoria . she does n't want anything to do with me . victor : what is going on here ? barton : yes , that 's what i 'd like to know . billy : well , what are you gon na do -- destroy it ? the information 's gon na come out . stitch : sir ... this is what i was gon na tell you about . victoria : i find it repulsive that you would use my niece 's memory in such a sadistic way . mariah : it was n't my idea , okay ? it was your dad that came up with that whole twisted scam . victoria : i 'm well aware of all that , but it was n't my father 's idea for you to ally yourself with ian ward or to harass abby and tyler . nick : vick , we 're giving mariah a chance here . [ cell phones beep ] mariah : what 's going on ? victoria : is yours from dylan , too ? nick : yeah . they 're about to rule on ian 's case against mom . victoria : we should go . nick : mom does n't want us there . victoria : well , not during the testimony , but that 's done now . we should be there if -- we should be there if the worst happens . nick : yeah , but -- mariah : well , sharon 's working , and you were planning on taking faith swimming , right ? nick : yeah , i promised her . mariah : well , if you want , i can find something fun to do with faith while you 're at the courthouse . you guys can do your swim thing tomorrow . victoria : you 're gon na leave your little girl with her ? ian : i want today 's win to be beneficial to you , as well , dylan . dylan : if you lose , it will be . that 'd be the best news i 've heard in a while . ian : [ chuckles ] oh , i 'll win . and after the judge finds in my favor , to make up for everything you endured from all of the poor decisions your mother made , i 'd like to share my monetary reward with you . i mean , after all , we 're both nikki 's victims . dylan : i 've told you before -- it 'll be a cold day in hell before i ever take a dime from you . ian : but you will be there in attendance today at -- at the announcement ? dylan : oh , yeah . i 'm gon na enjoy watching you go down in flames . michael : i have got to get to court . kevin : michael , you can not leave me here . michael : it is the ian ward lawsuit . i have to be in the court for the decision . kevin : well , at least do something before you go . please . otherwise , henderson is gon na put me back in that incredibly shrinking cell and i will completely lose my mind . michael : i know how tough this is on you . kevin : what -- what are you thinking ? michael : i 've got to go , but i will do everything i can to expedite your release . kevin : michael , please , will you call christine ? call somebody . michael : christine is out of town . the a.d.a . is gon na be the one calling the shots on your arrest . kevin : i do n't know how much longer i can last in that cell . michael : breathe . just breathe . think about your future . kevin : what future ? michael : oh , come on . you must have some vision of what your future 's gon na be like , what your life 's gon na be like in a month , in years . kevin : all right , and when that does n't work ? because , you know , right now , my vision is n't exactly clear . michael : everything is going to work out . be calm . i will have reinforcements come while i am away . kevin : reinforcements ? michael : and you might want to consider the consequences before you try breaking in to another hospital 's databank and stealing medical files . billy : i was n't gon na have you holding that over my head , waiting for the other shoe to drop . victor : wait a minute . will someone tell me what 's going on here ? barton : yes , what i 'd like to know is how did you get access to hospital personnel files ? billy : well , that 's not important . what matters is how stitch answered that question right there about whether or not he 'd ever been convicted of a crime . victor : no , what matters is that you 're trying to tarnish a good man 's reputation . dr. shelby , ignore what this man has to say . billy : you 're making a mistake . stitch : okay , no , no , no . look , this is my story . i 'll tell it . the truth is i 'm not who i say i am . i took someone else identity . billy : what , that 's it ? no , skip ahead to the good part where you tell everybody about how you killed your own father . victor : you did what ? barton : whatever is going on here , i plan on investigating these charges thoroughly . stitch : there 's no need to investigate , dr. shelby . i did . i served time for killing my father . nikki : stitch , it must have been in self - defense or there were some extenuating circumstances , right ? victor : sweetheart , i do n't think you need this right now . we will talk about this . barton : in light of these developments -- stitch : i know what needs to be done . i 'll tender my resignation immediately . kevin : harding , come on . cut me a break . harding : put him back into holding . kevin : no , no , no , no , no . no . no . you can put me in the interrogation room or -- look . cuff me right here . i can breathe . please . harding : you 're not getting any special treatment , fisher . lock him up . gloria : not to worry , kevin . mommy 's here . kevin : mom ? what the -- gloria : mommy 's here to help my baby boy through this harrowing ordeal . kevin : how are you gon na do that ? gloria : easy . are you eating ? you look very thin . kevin : mom , this is the way i look . what are you doing here ? gloria : your brother called me . and i should not have heard this from him . why did n't you pick up the phone and let me know ? kevin : you 're the reinforcements ? gloria : [ chuckles ] not chloe . you know , i could strangle her for dumping you , driving you , once again , into a life of crime . kevin : not helping . gloria : well , let 's hope your brother 's on the case , getting his little brother released on some technicality or other . kevin : no . he 's with another client , so i 'm trapped in here . gloria : okay . well , not to worry . i will walk you through your terrible claustrophobia . kevin : how are you gon na do that ? they 're sending me back to holding . gloria : oh , well , then , when you 're in that deep , dark , dank cell , feeling the walls closing in on you ... kevin : mom ! gloria : ... just think of bright , blue , open skies , hmm ? tut , tut , tut ! sit . sit . excuse , but i have a few more things to say to my son , if you do n't mind . i ca n't believe michael walked out on you , deserting his family in our time of need . michael : do not blame michael , mom . i got myself into this . gloria : oh . i guess someone , then -- someone is going to have to step up and save the day . kevin : how are you gon na do that ? gloria : mm . [ chuckles ] who 's in charge around here ? kevin : detective harding , but -- mom , no ! gloria : excuse me . are you , um [ clears throat ] captain harding ? harding : detective , ma'am , but yes , i 'm harding . how can i help you ? gloria : well , are n't you just the sweetest thing ? i am in desperate need of ... undercover work . billy : you know , if you need help clearing out your locker ... stitch : dr. shelby , i know how bad this looks . barton : [ sighs ] do you ? stitch : yes , i do . but i swear to you , my past has never interfered with my practice in medicine . being a doctor has always been more than a job to me . it 's been ... when everything i loved was lost , medicine was all i had . being a great doctor -- it 's what i live for . my record at memorial -- it 's been spotless . barton : and you think this will make up for everything that you 've done ? stitch : i suppose i 'm hoping you 'll remember that , despite my deceit , i 've helped people . i 've saved lives . i 'm truly sorry i wo n't be able to save more . barton : the hospital board will have to meet about this . the fraudulent way you obtained your medical license -- stitch : look , i understand i 'm finished at the hospital . barton : oh , there will be further ramifications -- not just at memorial , but most likely , legal ones , too . just because you quit does n't make it all right , mr. rayburn or whatever the hell your name is . victor : just gather yourself , my sweetheart , okay ? you want some water ? nikki : no , thanks . i keep thinking about victoria and this news about stitch -- how it 's gon na upset her . victor : sweetheart , dismiss all thoughts about this ben rayburn or stitch or whatever his name is , all right ? focus on the task at hand . nikki : yeah . michael : victor , nikki . nikki : oh , dylan . i was n't expecting to see you . dylan : i wanted to be here . did n't expect all those reporters outside , though . nikki : yeah . michael : did you use the other entrance ? victor : thanks for the warning . i thought this was a closed trial . michael : it was supposed to be , but somehow , it got leaked . victor : ian ward ? michael : that 's my guess . nikki : [ sighs ] dylan : try not to be nervous , okay ? nikki : i ca n't help it . i mean , if ian wins , he 's gon na have more than enough money to get a good foothold in genoa city , and then this will never end . he 'll be lying in wait for any opportunity to hurt me and my family . victor : sweetheart , i promise you , no matter what the judge decides , ian ward will not beat us . all right ? dylan : i mean , could it -- could it happen ? could ian win ? michael : oh , i mean , it 's possible . dylan : i mean , how could any judge in their right mind side with ian after hearing nikki 's testimony ? nikki : i am so sorry you had to hear all that . dylan : no , it 's okay . it 's okay . i 'm fine . nikki : [ sighs ] it really upsets me to think that we might have to pay ian for disrupting our lives . and even worse , if the judge rules in his favor , that will just validate every horrible thing ian has ever said about me . michael : all right . you 're talking like we 've already been defeated . listen , we have a very , very strong chance of winning this case . nikki : where 's paul ? michael : he 's not gon na make it . dylan : is it 'cause of me ? i know things got a little tense after the testimony . nikki : no . he 's not upset with you . his issues are solely with me , my actions . dylan : all three of us are still trying to wrap our head around paul being my father . we got a lot to work out . michael : okay , listen , you 're both making too much out of this . christine took him away for a little `` r `` and `` r `` . he probably did n't even get the message that the verdict was in . victor : sweetheart , it does n't make any difference if paul is here or not , okay ? right now , your whole family is behind you . there . nikki : oh , my god . victoria , nicholas , thank you both for being here . nick : of course we 'd be here . victoria : we 're not going anywhere . nikki : all those reporters outside . nick : yeah , we ignored them . nikki : sweetheart , i just heard about stitch . it must be so upsetting . victoria : mom , look , i do n't want you worrying about that right now , okay ? nikki : i - i know . just tell me how you are . victoria : i 'm okay . i 'm dealing with it . nick : victoria has backup . dylan : from both of us . victoria : thank you . nikki : well , it 's nice to see my children getting along despite this horrible mess i 've gotten you all into . victoria : right now , let 's just focus on defeating ian , okay ? gloria : harding , ooh , what a very strong name . i suppose you 've heard all about me from , um , alex . oh , i mean detective chavez . he was hopelessly smitten with me , you know ? harding : no , i did n't know that . gloria : i believe that i 'm the reason he left town . harding : you ? gloria : yes . he was brokenhearted because he knew ... that he could n't have me . harding : okay . henderson , lock him up , please . gloria : no , no , no ! no , please ! you ca n't . he is my star witness . i am the victim of a horrible crime . and that is why i need a big , strong detective like you . harding : ju -- wh - what crime , ma'am ? gloria : please call me gloria . i mean , the whole thing is baffling . do you know my brilliant son who has worked tirelessly to uphold the law finds himself arrested . now , why is that ? harding : well , fisher here is , uh , accused of theft , cybercrime -- gloria : [ laughs ] oh , please . that 's a misunderstanding . harding : well , i do n't see how finding a stolen i.d . badge in his desk could be misunderstood . gloria : really ? did it ever occur to you that the badge was found in his desk because kevin solved the mystery of the missing i.d . himself ? harding : no , ma'am . that -- that never occurred to me . gloria : well , it should have been the first thing you thought of . because of his investigative computer work , my son has brought down many a criminal in genoa city . this town would fall apart without him . harding : is that so ? gloria : i would never lie to a fearless and very handsome detective like you . harding . kevin : [ sighs ] the holding cell would be a step up from this . [ sighs ] faith : i blocked you . mariah : oh , my gosh . you are way too good at this game . [ chuckles ] so , what are your dad 's favorite things ? faith : sports . he 's always watching that on tv . mariah : anything else ? faith : i do n't know . more sports . it 's your turn . mariah : well , i mean , there must be other things that he likes , right ? faith : he likes playing wedding with me . mariah : what about music ? is there any music that he listens to or foods that he likes to eat ? faith : peach pie . he loves that . mariah : nice . well , uh , why are n't your mom and dad married anymore ? faith : daddy said people do n't have to be married . mariah : really ? faith : mm - hmm . i think he 's scared to get married to mommy . mariah : well , maybe there 's a way that i could help your dad out . ian : i hope we can handle this as adults . dylan : you call this adult ? dragging us all through this joke of a trial ? ian : you know , one of the biggest fans of nicole 's seems to be missing from the proceedings . or is it possible that police chief williams has finally deduced who the real guilty party really is ? victoria : i think you should worry about your own fan club . my mother has more people behind her than you ever will . ian : well , all i need at the moment is one person -- the judge . and i believe he felt my pain . victor : let 's not engage this pathetic scoundrel any longer . ian : that could be the grounds for another lawsuit , victor , for slander . all rise ! judge ramsey : [ clears throat ] you may be seated . as you know , i have reached my decision . this lawsuit has been a series of malicious attacks and painful revelations , but what i find most disturbing is that a mother robbed a son of his father . stitch : so you just made up you 're mind i 'm just some cold - blooded killer , huh ? billy : ca n't argue with the facts . stitch : [ scoffs ] you think it 's just cut and dry like that , huh ? black and white ? billy : you do n't ? stitch : i was a kid , billy . this is ancient history . it has no bearing on the man that i am today . i 've been good to victoria , and always would have been . billy : i hope that you 're not looking for some ... medal of approval here . stitch : and what are you looking for ? victoria 's love ? you have completely tanked my life , and why ? why have you done that ? to get back something you lost because of your own actions . billy : what about your actions ? stitch : yeah . let 's -- let 's look at those . the patients that i 've treated and healed , people from your own family , even -- even you . i mean , i even helped save your niece 's life by finding out what pills she o.d . 'd on . billy : you know , i - i do n't care . i do n't want a convicted murderer around my son . billy : there was that night last fall . i had been on a 16-hour shift , was about to go home , when they brought in this little girl -- hit and run . billy : do n't . do n't . stitch : billy , i stayed all night . i did everything i could , took on every case at the e.r . so that the best doctors , the best nurses , all the resources in the hospital could be spent helping that little girl . no one asked me to . i just did it . and when i found out she did n't make it ... i found a nice , quiet room up on the third floor , and i just broke down and cried . just talking about it now , i 'm kind of a mess . that 's the kind of doctor i am , billy . it 's the kind of doctor i was . judge ramsey : you , mrs. newman , should have made reasonable efforts to determine who , indeed , was the father of your child . being young , being naive , um -- these are not excuses for such poor judgment . none of us would be here today if you had simply considered the fact that mr. williams and not mr. ward could have been the father of mr. mcavoy . nikki : your honor , i truly did believe that ian was the father . judge ramsey : you are not getting off any easier , mr. ward . i find your actions particularly repulsive , and you do n't have the naiveté of youth to use as an excuse . you slept with a young girl , one of your cult , who you claim you tried to save . you had this affair behind your wife 's back , and then , after entering this sexual relationship , you showed no concern whatsoever about the well - being of this young girl . and given the fact that you used medical proof of your sterility to avoid a paternity suit in another court of law , this court finds it absurd that you would now try to dismiss it so summarily in order to win this case . therefore i find that the plaintiff acted , in this court 's opinion , unethically . and i dismiss this case with prejudice , meaning , as your attorneys will inform you , this case can not be brought back to court . i would offer you congratulations , mrs. newman , but i do n't think there are any winners in this courtroom . [ bangs gavel ] bailiff : all rise ! nikki : is it over ? michael : yes . congratulations . nikki : [ chuckles ] thank you so much , michael . michael : you 're very welcome . look , i have another client . victor : come here , sweetheart . [ whispering indistinctly ] nikki : [ chuckles ] ian : so , what 's our next move ? david : well , you heard the judge . now that 's he 's ruled with prejudice ... ian : but there must be some way we can salvage something out of this . david : sorry , mr. ward , but there 's nothing to be done in the matter . ian : [ sighs ] nikki : thank you so much for standing by me . it means the world to me . dylan : of course . it was a clear case of right and wrong , and ian was wrong . nikki : well , i was wrong , too . all those things i wrote when i was younger -- dylan : oh , you know what ? it 's water under a bridge a million miles from here . nikki : but it had to have hurt you to hear them . i 'm sorry i had to drudge up all that horrible stuff . dylan : i 'm just glad this went well for you . victor : i think a celebration is in order . why do n't you all join us ? nikki : this whole thing came up so suddenly . i totally forgot i have a meeting at the hospital for a charity event . victor : what , you ca n't miss it ? nikki : no , i - i ca n't . victoria : in that case , would you like some company ? nikki : well , in my meeting ? victoria : well , i have a meeting at the hospital . i 'm meeting my obstetrician . we can catch up on the way , if you want . nikki : sure . that would be great . victoria : good . nikki : thank you , darling . you 've been wonderful . victor : you 're welcome . nick : congratulations , mom . nikki : i 'll see you all later . victor : okay . nikki : oh , excuse me . well , you did n't beat me , ian . it 's all over now . you lost . come on , sweetheart . nick : hey , thanks for letting us know that the judge 's decision was happening today . dylan : i 'm just , uh , glad the ruling came down in our favor . victor : but you still have some doubt . dylan : you got to wonder -- will ian realize there 's nothing left for him here ? nick : most smart guys would move on . you think he will ? victor : yeah , most smart guys would . but who the hell knows what that s.o.b . is up to now . nick : [ pats arm ] gloria : you really must let me touch your guns . harding : ma'am , uh -- miss fisher , um -- gloria : unh - unh . call me gloria . ooh ! strong . that 's nice . [ telephone rings ] harding : i have to get that . gloria : very nice . yes ! i think we have made significant progress . kevin : the only progress you 've made is towards getting yourself thrown in jail . gloria : shh ! michael : oh , i 'm glad you 're both here . kevin : yeah , and soon , you 're gon na have two clients instead of one . do you know what she 's been up to since you abandoned me ? michael : gloria 's been working her magic . gloria : yes . i still have that certain touch . kevin : why would you call our mother and not another lawyer or a priest ? michael : it looks to me like she 's been helping out . gloria : thank you , michael . kevin : you 're both insane . the only thing she 's done is thrown herself at harding . gloria : for a very worthy cause , angel . michael : i knew you 'd do something outrageous . [ both chuckle ] michael : and has n't she kept you out of your cell for a little while longer ? she bought us time . gloria : yes . kevin : that was the -- that was the plan ? gloria : mm - hmm . kevin : huh . gloria : [ chuckles ] kevin : all right . fine . for once , mom 's craziness actually helped . gloria : i think i 'm offended by that . there is nothing crazy about my diversionary tactics . harding : fisher , you 're free to go . kevin : what ? what do you mean ? harding : really get your hearing checked . you 're free to go . kevin : i do n't have to go back to the cell ? michael : uh , not at this point . gloria : thank you , thank you , thank you , mr. big , strong , handy , hearty man . my little boy has been released thanks to me . harding : well , you can chalk that up to the a.d.a . buying baldwin 's argument . she 's not gon na pursue a case against kevin . gloria : okay , the a.d.a . if you want to play it that way , that 's the game we 'll play . so long , smoothy . remember me to alex . nikki : now that this lawsuit is over , i 'm gon na be there for my daughter . victoria : you have been , mom , this whole time . nikki : how can i help you with this situation with stitch ? victoria : [ sighs ] well , there 's not much anyone can do at this point . nikki : do you know yet if he 's the baby 's father ? victoria : i have n't taken the paternity test . nikki : why not ? victoria : well , for now , i do n't want to know whose child i 'm carrying . nikki : okay . victoria : i know you do n't approve . nikki : honey , i was just chastised in court for not identifying the father of my baby early on . victoria : [ sighs ] mom , that was a completely different situation . one of the men who might have been your child 's father was n't a convicted murderer . nikki : no , he was just a sociopath . at least stitch is likable . victoria : gosh , my poor baby . what kind of a father have i given him ... or her ? nikki : sweetheart , you have given your baby a wonderful life with a loving mother who ca n't wait to welcome them into her life . victoria : [ chuckles ] yeah . you know , you did that for dylan . nikki : well , dylan was raised well , just not by me . and it cost him and paul . sweetheart , please learn from my mistakes . victoria : all right . i 'm just waiting a little while before i confirm if the baby is billy 's or ben 's . nikki : okay . i - i just have to say , though , i - i ca n't imagine that it would benefit you or the baby not knowing . victoria : oh , mom . please try to understand , okay ? nikki : i do . victoria : okay . nikki : i do . whatever you decide , i will stand by you . victoria : thank you . i appreciate it . nikki : okay . victoria : uh , mom ... should n't you head off that way ? going to the board room , right ? nikki : yeah . [ chuckles ] all right . call me if you need anything . victoria : i will . i love you . nikki : i love you . nick : i 'm home ! mariah : hi . i did n't , uh -- i did n't hear you come in . nick : yeah . uh - oh . looks like you got roped into one of faith 's art projects . mariah : oh , yeah . [ chuckles ] i did n't realize i 'm all messy . i 'm actually fixing you dinner -- um , you -- you and faith . nick : a home - cooked meal ? mariah : yes . and it 's looking pretty tasty , might i add . [ chuckles ] nick : wow . you would do that for me ? i mean , all i did was make you a sandwich . mariah : yes , but you cut off the crusts . nick : which does make it gourmet . [ both chuckle ] nick : uh , honestly , mariah , you do not have to do that for us . mariah : no , no . i wanted to do something to help out once . i mean , you guys have done so much more for me . but i want to hear about the lawsuit . what happened ? nick : ian lost . his case was thrown out completely . mariah : well , congrats ! nick : oh ! nick : okay . there we go . all right , so , why are you so happy ? i mean , my mom winning means your pal ian lost . mariah : well , ian will bounce back . but i 'm happy for you , nick . i know how important this was to you . nick : yeah , justice was done . what -- what is that smell ? is that -- is that peach pie ? mariah : yeah , it is . nick : peach pie 's my favorite . mariah : no ! nick : yes . mariah : [ chuckles ] what a coincidence -- it 's mine , too . billy : hey . i assume the news has made the rounds . dylan : yeah , i heard . billy : turns out i was right not to back off my investigation of stitch . the guy 's a murderer . dylan : i 'm still having a hard time believing that 's true . billy : want me to give you some proof ? or maybe you 'd like to get it from his secret sister , kelly . she can back up the whole story . dylan : i do n't need to hear anymore about this . billy : still defending your old buddy ? still on his side ? dylan : [ sighs ] no . and i 'm not on yours , either . billy : so , what then ? you 're neutral ? dylan : no , i 'm standing on the only side that counts , and that 's where you and stitch should be , too -- on victoria 's side -- hers and the baby 's . billy : [ sighs ] victoria : what are you doing ? is that all your stuff ? stitch : yeah . yeah , i 'm , um -- i 'm done here . victoria : you 're -- you 're leaving the hospital ? stitch : the truth is out . i lied about my name , my prison record . there 's no way i can practice medicine now . victoria : ever ? stitch : for now , i 've been asked to take a leave of absence . victoria : oh . for how long ? stitch : i wo n't know until my case goes before the hospital board . after that , i , uh ... victoria : ben ... stitch : what is it , vicki ? victoria : i ca n't help feeling that you 're holding something back -- that , i do n't know , maybe that 's just me wishing . stitch : for what ? victoria : [ sighs ] that i was n't so wrong about you . i mean , with everything that 's come out , what else is there ? stitch : i made my choices , and i got to live with them . victor : may i have a word with you , mr. ward ? ian : i 'll just be a moment . what is it , victor ? victor : do n't you ever make the mistake of coming after my family again . nikki : my name is nikki , and i 'm an alcoholic . david : well , [ sighs ] i , uh , thought we had a good shot going into this . sorry we lost the case . ian : oh , all is not lost . nikki : i even sat at that bar , the one where i had been staring at all the liquor bottles . i nearly ordered a drink . i let the stress get to me . i - i was just so nervous that ... my resolve wavered . i did n't even want to tell my family that i was coming to this meeting . but fortunately , things have worked out in such a way that i should n't be so tempted again . ian : the lawsuit may have failed , but i still have one last weapon left in my arsenal , one that they 'll never see coming . nope .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : how 'd you hurt your wrist ? sam : oh , this ? i was , um , working off some aggression -- not that you would have any idea what that feels like because you are always in control and perfect . i mean , come on -- you 're the ideal wife , mother , nurse . elizabeth : okay , sorry i asked . sam : hey . did you go up and see jason yet ? elizabeth : yes , i have . sam : that 's great . i 'm sure jason moved heaven and earth to make sure that you were allowed in . elizabeth : sam ? sam : what ? what ? am i -- am i talking too loud ? am i embarrassing you ? i am sorr -- elizabeth : huh . sam : look -- no need to worry . there 's nobody here , nobody 's listening . you 're not going to tarnish that halo of yours , not that you care when you throw yourself at jason , though . elizabeth : i know this is you hurting , and i do n't think -- sam : maybe , i do n't -- i do n't know if you 've heard , but maybe your husband , the cop , forgot to mention that jason was being transferred to the pcpd today , which is great because you 'll be able to steal some more private moments -- unless that 's going to be a problem with lucky . but , hey , since when do you give a damn about what lucky thinks ? epiphany : i 'm glad you did n't leave yet . here 's the form you 'll need for the x - rays . sam : thanks . bye . elizabeth : she does n't even try to hide how much she hates me anymore . epiphany : sam had all her dreams pinned on jason . [ elizabeth sighs ] epiphany : now they 've broken up , and you 're surprised that she 's nursing a grudge ? elizabeth : and i know she blames me for the breakup . epiphany : i 'm thinking she blames jason . there is nothing more dangerous than a woman scorned , and lansing knows it . [ scene_break ] ric : thank you . sonny : what do you need , ric ? ric : you know , it 's nice that you -- you got max back on the payroll . i think he was getting a little bored working at the metro court -- carly would n't let him shoot anybody . unfortunately , i also had to have him detained by two officers because he seems to think it 's okay to put his hands on the district attorney . sonny : get out . ric : i 'm here to do you a favor . sonny : i do n't need a favor , ric . ric : did you go visit jason this morning ? sonny : um , yeah , yeah . ric : yeah , you did . and i think you are the last person that visited him just before his transfer back to port charles . sonny : there 's no crime in that , is there ? ric : the evidence that i have against jason is conclusive , sonny , and i 'm sure you 've tried to have all of your lawyers find all kinds of legal loopholes and you realize by now that there are none . jason is going to be convicted . sonny : i 've -- i 've heard this speech , like , i do n't know how many times and right now i 'm not really interested in -- ric : i know . if you 're just planning on pulling anything , sonny , like trying to break jason out during the transfer , i would strongly advise against it . i have a camera crew that 's going to document his arrival at the station . now would be a good time to keep a low profile . sonny : you 're right , ric . you 're holding all the cards . so why are you the one sweating ? [ scene_break ] diane : i 'm making a note of my client 's condition . he arrives in port charles with so much as a scratch and i will be filing charges . officer : relax . nothing 's going to happen to him . diane : i 'll hold you to that , and i will see you at the port charles police station . [ scene_break ] carly : what are you doing ? jerry : oh , hello . i 'm enjoying a stroll on this beautiful day , do n't you think ? carly : what about our deal ? jerry : i 'm all over it . i was just wondering if you meant what you said when you said you were going to be my best friend . you know , i 've never had one before , so i 'm really looking forward to it . i mean , are we going to have sleepovers ? can i borrow your clothes and can you do my hair ? you know , can i text you on my cell phone and would it include benefits ? i 'm shaking with anticipation . carly : your benefit 's going to be i 'm not going to let max or milo hang you off the roof of my hotel by your ankles . jerry : you really have to do something about your hostility , carly . carly : i 'm not joking . you ca n't jerk me around the way you did when you held me hostage . jerry : but i can jerk you quite painfully if i want to . but you are my sister- in - law and i 'm on your side , so i 'm ready and willing to assist . carly : what 's your plan ? jerry : oh , my plan is to prevent jason from going to prison for the murder of lorenzo alcazar , just as you asked . [ scene_break ] patrick : hey . how 's kelly ? robin : uh , she 's just a little stressed out . what about your dad ? how are his eli love lessons going ? patrick : well , he said your mom 's been great . she 's helping him with all his songs and moves . robin : that 's what i 'm afraid of . patrick : relax . it sounds like they 're too busy for any extracurricular activities . robin : or so we hope . patrick : robin , your mom is helping my dad stay clean and sober despite impersonating a known drunk . as long as no one gets hurt , what 's the problem with having a little fun ? robin : my mother has a huge crush on eli love , okay ? she has admitted to fantasizing about him , and your father is looking and acting more like him by the minute . patrick : so , what , you think she 's going to take this opportunity to turn fantasy into reality ? robin : well , let 's just say my mother has never been shy . patrick : wow , and they are our parents . that 's -- that 's kind of weird . robin : `` kind of `` ? huh . patrick : but they are consenting adults . robin : oh , no . do you think it happened already ? patrick : uh -- robin : no , no , no , no . it could n't have , because you 're right -- they have n't spent that much time together , but if they keep going on like this , could you imagine -- oh . no , just wiping that thought right from my mind . patrick : hmm . [ scene_break ] kate : i want the extra shipment stored behind the garage . well -- look who 's here . morning , neighbor . sonny : i do n't have much time -- jason 's being transferred from pentonville . kate : okay . so why are you here ? sonny : well , i heard the chopper and then i -- i called the hotel . they said you checked out , gone back to manhattan . kate : i did , but then the foreman called to say that the shipment had arrived earlier -- marble , so -- sonny : so you 're still going ahead with the renovations ? kate : no , i told you a few weeks ago that i was n't selling . sonny : yeah , you did , but you left so quickly , i thought -- kate : well , i 'm staying . i mean , it 's not the most convenient time for me to come back , but , you know , someone had to oversee the marble , so -- sonny : right -- marble . kate : okay , so i suppose you think i came back for you . [ scene_break ] sam : wes ? hey . you 're aware that i 'm not going to be around for the next week or so for taping , right ? wes : amelia told us . you 've been called as a witness in the jason morgan trial ? sam : yeah , so i was kind of thinking that maybe i could finish up taping one of my segments and then you and your crew can start editing while i 'm gone . wes : actually , amelia wants to do a piece on the trial . sam : are you serious ? wes : well , she just left for pcpd with a cameraman . sam : huh . why would she bother ? wes : well , public loves cop shows , right ? she figures there 's an audience for a piece on a real , live d.a . crusading for truth and justice by putting a mob hit man behind bars . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : hey . emily : hey . elizabeth : how crazed are you right now ? emily : oh , i 'm on my break . ca n't you tell ? huh . elizabeth : okay , you 're busy . i 'll have to -- i 'm going to call around -- emily : no , no , no . elizabeth , if i read one more case note , i think my head is going to explode . any diversion would be welcome . besides , you look like your head 's about to explode if you do n't talk to somebody . elizabeth : yeah -- sam has that effect on me . emily : uh - oh . what now ? elizabeth : well , she claims that she knew the risks , but i think it was just an excuse to show up here to mention that she 's testifying against jason . emily : how did she seem ? elizabeth : bitter , angry , spiteful , throwing out little digs about me visiting jason and how unfair it is to lucky , but why would i care about my husband 's feelings ? she can hate me all she wants . i just -- i 'm so afraid she 's going to take it out on jason . everything is jason 's fault , everything is my fault . i mean , we did n't apologize enough for sleeping together , and then we remained friends and then we did n't tell lucky , so we 're really evil people for it , and you know the thing that 's so frustrating is that i 'm not sorry i slept with jason . i 'm not , and i resent that she implies that it was the same as her sleeping with ric . emily : look , i 'm not defending her . she 's hurt , she 's acting badly , but the best thing you can do is just not to engage her . elizabeth : and , normally , i would agree if jason were n't going on trial for murder tomorrow . sam lived with him for three years . i 'm sure she knows something that could hurt him . and ric -- you know ric is a brutal manipulator . he starts pushing her buttons when she testifies , she could get jason convicted .

[ sighs ] he needs a real family -- two parents under the same roof . zoe : yeah , yeah , and you know what ? we 'll -- we 'll give him that . and douglas -- he 'll grow to accept it , but in his own time . and i can wait . thomas : yeah , well , i can't . look , the longer we wait , the more douglas gets attached to the status quo . that 's not good , and -- and ... i want my wife . you know ? i - i want her there when i go to sleep at night and then there again when i wake up in the morning . i want the life that we 're planning , and i want it now . zoe : what are you saying ? thomas : i 'm saying ... let 's get married right away . i mean , why wait ? where can a healthier heart lead you ? zoe : you wan na get married right away ? like when ? thomas : like yesterday , okay ? i wan na give my son the family that he wants , the family that he 's deserved all along . zoe : i do n't know . this kind of happened all so fast . i mean , you and me practically came out of nowhere . thomas : we 've been building this all along -- our connection . we just did n't know it yet . zoe : you were in love with hope , obsessed with her , and willing to do anything to have her . thomas : look , why are you questioning this ? zoe : because it counts , thomas . okay ? what if she decides that she wants you after all ? thomas : well , then ... [ chuckles ] well , she 's gon na be very disappointed , because i 'm not interested . zoe : you 're being real , right ? when you say that you love me ? thomas : okay , did i or did i not put my literal money where my mouth is ? this did n't exactly come out of a cereal box . okay , and i got down on one knee . i proposed in front of my entire family . zoe : that you did . thomas : and that along with me wanting to get married right away ? come on , zoe . say you believe me . say yes , okay ? say you 'll marry me right away . zoe : i mean , i guess there 's no real reason to wait . thomas : that 's what i 'm saying . zoe : [ laughs ] okay . yeah . yes . thomas : yes ? yes ? you mean it ? zoe : yeah , let 's -- let 's do it . thomas : that 's what i 'm talking about ! come here . mmm ! oh , yes . zoe : wait . wait . what -- what about douglas ? thomas : let 's go tell him . zoe : no , should n't we ease him into this ? thomas : no , that defeats the purpose , okay ? it 's like ripping off a band - aid . listen , the sooner we tell him , the sooner we 'll have our family . hope : i want you to tell me how you really feel about zoe , no holding back . douglas : i kind of like her . but i do n't want her to be my mommy . hope : well ... do n't you want your daddy to be happy ? douglas : yes , with you . why ca n't he marry you ? hope : [ sighs ] we talked about this . douglas : it feels wrong . when they kiss , it makes my tummy hurt , not happy like when he kisses you . hope : but that 's over now , douglas . douglas : because daddy did n't tell you about beth . he made a mistake , but he 's sorry . i know he 's sorry . daddy loves you , not zoe . i know he 'd rather marry you than zoe . hope : [ sighs ] everything is going to be okay . i know it does n't feel it this minute , but it will . you 'll see , okay ? thomas : uh , douglas , are -- are you okay ? hope : he 's upset . thomas : oh . okay . well , i 'm about to change that . i 've got some exciting news . and i 'm glad you 're here , too . i want you to be a part of this . first of all , douglas , i just wan na tell you how proud i am of you . you 've been such a trouper . you were a comfort to me in the weeks and months following losing your mother , and , wow , you were brave and you were strong . and you opened your heart , you know , to -- to healing and to love , and that 's amazing . you -- you 're one heck of a kid , and i 'm so glad to call you mine . douglas : thanks , daddy . thomas : [ chuckles ] i just -- i wan na give you everything -- everything good for your life . [ sighs ] thomas : yeah , and ... we 're so lucky we found zoe , you know ? i 'm so happy to be with you , and -- and i know , douglas , that once you get to know her as well as i do , you 're gon na love her . you 're gon na love her as much as you love hope . okay ? we 're gon na have the family that you 've always wanted . hope : maybe we could do this another time . thomas : no , no , i 've , uh , i 've been putting my life on hold for too long , okay ? i should n't have to do that , and douglas should n't have to put his life on hold either , okay ? i want what 's best for my son , and that 's why i asked zoe to marry me . douglas : was that the good news ? thomas : well , no . no , no , no . you already knew that . um ... the good news is , is that zoe and i talked about it , and we came to the conclusion that there 's really no reason to wait . zoe : [ chuckles ] thomas : so we 're gon na get married right away , and you 're gon na have a mommy and a daddy , the family that you wanted under -- under one roof , all right ? that -- how exciting is that ? douglas : no ! i do n't want that . mommy , make it stop ! thomas : douglas ...Summarize.[/INST]thomas and vinny chat on the phone . vinny has to make a decision about his apartment and wonders if thomas is really going to marry zoe and if his feelings are real . thomas does n't really answers his question . vinny again worries about how thomas is using douglas , but thomas thinks that endgame ( marrying hope ) justifies everything . vinny is concerned about all of the stress that douglas is under . vinny wonders what will happen if thomas ' plan does n't work out . thomas is fully prepared to marry zoe if things do n't go his way , but he has a lot of confidence that it will all turn out his way . vinny continues to worry about the pressure on douglas , so thomas gets an idea . he thanks vinny , who 's not sure what he 's being thanked for .</s> | 351 |

well , you didn't . this is just a stay of execution , but it is coming . it 's coming . eve : whitney ? please . let 's talk this out , honey . you have got to listen to me . whitney : i do n't want to hear anything that you have to say , mom . you are a liar and a whore ! eve : what 's unforgivable is you calling me those horrible names . t.c . : sounds like they 're back to yelling again . whitney : oh , you do n't like those ? i 'm sure i can come up with some different ones ! liz : whitney is really upset . eve : stop this ! just stop it ! t.c . : who could blame her ? liz : not me . t.c . : someone you love , somebody that you think you love for all of your life betrays you . i mean , that 's got to make you feel bad . how do you deal with something like that ? liz : you are going to find out what that feels like very soon , t.c . t.c . : damn it , liz , will you stop making these innuendos about eve ? i mean , she is a wonderful woman and she will never betray me . liz : all i 'm trying to say -- t.c . : listen , liz , please stop it , ok ? now , you 're not going to come between eve and me . liz : i 'm not trying to do that , t.c . eve : you will not speak to me like that . whitney : i will speak to you any way i damn well please ! t.c . : oh , man , i hope that eve can just calm whitney down . liz : you 're mistaken about me , t.c . you are mistaken about a lot of things . t.c . : liz , i know what this is all about . you want to be with me . i mean , the times that i kissed you was a weakness on my part , and i did n't mean it . i am sorry , but i love my wife , and i 'm not going to leave her for anything . liz : t.c . , you saw how upset whity y was . you can hear how upset whitney still is . t.c . : eve will settle her down . liz : no . no , t.c . , see , you think this is about whitney feeling betrayed by chad and betraying simone , but what if you 're wrong ? t.c . : i 'm not wrong . liz : no , what if whitney 's anger has nothing to do with chad or her sister ? i know about a sister 's betrayal , t.c . i know firsthand . t.c . : your sister . you 're talking about your sister . how in the hell could i be so blind ? liz : you know . you finally know . necessarily trust him with the simone : charity 's not herself . jessica : i do n't care who she is . i do n't like her anymore . but talking about her only makes me angry , so can we change the subject ? i 'm going to go get something to drink . simone : not that i 'm condoning charity 's behavior , but i can understand why she went a little crazy . i mean , look at all the stuff she 's been through over the past year or so -- kay getting pregnant by miguel , charity having to share him with the baby and her . kay : am i supposed to apologize for that or something ? john : no , simone 's just saying that it 's contributed to her behavior and this weird phase she 's going through . simone : maybe that 's her way of dealing with all the stress . kay : i just love how you all make excuses for her , but when i do something , you all say it has to do with evil . simone : maybe because with you it usually does . kay : oh , thanks , former best friend . john : i think simone 's just trying to say that we 're not used to seeing charity act like this . kay : oh , well , that makes me feel better . john : but it wo n't last long . sooner or later , charity and miguel will get back together . kay 's voice : you have to be wrong , john . you have to be . miguel : hey . i do n't get it , ok ? why are you acting so crazy ? you know , i think one of those guys in there spiked your i ink with something . charity : nobody spiked my drink . miguel : ok , well , then what 's gotten into you ? charity : it 's called fun . miguel : you know , you used to think fun was taking a walk on the beach with me , you know , or hanging out at the house , watching a movie together , just cuddling on the couch . you know , that 's the charity that i know -- the sweet , loving , innocent girl that i still love , and always will . look , charity , tell me what 's going on . please . i still love you . charity : even after seeing me in bed with reese ? miguel : yeah , even after that . because i know that this is n't you . all right , dancing like that , you know , kissing random guys , chugging down drinks , being with reese ? that could n't be you . look , just tell me what 's going on , ok , tell me why you 're distancing yourself from me . charity : i 'll give up miguel . just let maria live . death : are you sure ? charity : yes . maria ca n't die because of me . death : then so be it . miguel : is there something that i can do to help you ? because please tell me . i 'll do anything . [ julian scoffs ] julian : hope that i could be with the woman i love ? luis : yes . julian : but i told you , that 's impossible , she 's married . luis : well , that could change . she could get a divorce . julian : oh , she completely believes in the sanctity of marriage , you know , `` till death do us part . `` luis : well , there 's that , as morbid as it sounds . all i 'm saying is there is a chance that the two of you could be together . just might take a few years . julian : then again , it -- it could be sooner than i even imagined . luis : you 're not going to break up their marriage , are you ? julian : no , no , i said that i would n't do that , but to be honest with you , there are certain people tt t know about us , about our past together . luis : who ? julian : one of the children . she 's not actually a child . she 's a beautiful young woman in her 20s . but anyway , she knows , and she believes that her mother betrayed her father . luis : well , you said that nothing was going on between the two of you now . julian : nothing is . the daughter does n't know that . god . first i cause the mother to suffer , now her daughter ? what have i done ? eve : i 'm not what you say i am , whitney . whitney : the word is `` whore , `` mother , `` slut . `` eve : you stop it ! i 'm not any of those hideous names that you call me ! i have never cheated on your father ! whitney : i saw you kissing julian crane ! eve : would you just keep your voice down , please ? whitney : oh , why , you afraid daddy 's going to hear me ? well , he 's going to hear me , mom , any minute now , i promise you . eve : please , please , whitney -- whitney : what ? what , you want me to say i did n't see you ? no , i 'm not going to be a liar like you . eve : i -- i -- whitney : i 'm going to tell daddy the truth , ok , and there 's nothing you can do to stop me from doing that . eve : no , you can not tell him the truth because you do n't know the whole story ! whitney : i do n't want to . this is horrible enough , mom ! eve : i love your father . whitney : then why were you kissing julian crane , hmm ? and why are you trying to force me to lie about it ? eve : no , i 'm not . whitney : no , no , yes , you are . you say you do n't want me to lie , right ? but when i was a little girl , you told me that a lie of omission was just as bad as an out - and - out lie . and that 's what you 're trying to make me do , mom . you 're trying to involve me in all your lying and your cheating . eve : no , i did n't cheat ! whitney : why are you doing this to daddy ? i just want to know why . why are you doing this to our family , huh ? why ? t.c . : your sister . everything is so obvious . everything is so clear now . liz : you really know . you put it together . you made the connection , t.c . my sister -- the drunk , the drug addict , the whore . t.c . : yes , liz . your sister and eve are the same person . singer : you are my passion for life kay : miguel should n't have stopped her , ok ? he 's only wasting his time . she 's going to go right back to being the party girl because that 's who she is now . simone : no , kay , the way she was acngng was just a phase . john : charity and miguel are making up already . kay : what ? simone : hmm , that was n't long . kay : oh , i 'll be right back . simone : wait , kay , do n't you dare . ugh . jessica : whoa , looks like kay 's on a mission . simone : yeah , mission impossible . miguel : i wish you 'd talk to me , charity , tell me what 's really going on with you . charity : you saw me in there . what else can be said ? miguel : how much have you had to drink ? look a little flushed . charity : i 'm all right . miguel : i 'm going to go get us some coffees . you know , maybe when i get back , we can talk this all out . charity : ok . thanks . miguel : i 'll be right back . i love you . charity : oh , miguel . i love you so much . but if i come back to you , maria will die . kay : damn it , charity , you have got to stop this . stop teasing miguel . stop playing with his emotions like they 're a yo - yo . is that what you 're going to do , just torture him for the rest of his life ? luis : wow . julian : what ? luis : would 've bet on the sox winning the world series before i thought i 'd see you caring about another human being like this . julian : truth be told , sometimes i surprise myself . i hear myself talking and i think , is is really me ? luis : well , she must be something . julian : she 's everything i could ever want in a woman . i just hate that i 've caused her so much pain . luis : have you tried talking to her daughter about the situation ? julian : yes , but she -- she 's too emotional to understand . i fear that she will tell her father what she thinks she knows . her mother 's life would be shattered . the woman i love would lose everything . luis : whoa . i feel sorry for the woman , and her daughter . i feel sorry for you , too , julian , strange as that sounds . look , it sounds like the situation 's out of your hands . for all we know , this woman 's life could be imploding as we speak . eve : why wo n't you just let me explain ? whitney : you 're not explaining anything , mom . you 're just making a bunch of lousy excuses . eve : i do n't need any excuses . i have n't done anything wrong ! whitney : what a crock , mom ! eve : i love your father . whitney : and you show it by being with other men , hmm ? eve : that is not true , whitney . julian has just been very supportive lately . whitney : supportive ? oh , please . eve : your father is the man that i love . whitney : then why were you kissing julian crane ? please just -- why ? eve : whitney , it 's just very complicated . whitney : no , mom , i 'm sorry , that 's not going to work . because you 're the one who always told me that love is simple , right ? and if i ever find the right man , i would know it . eve : yes , honey , and you will . whitney : that 's just another one of your lies . you know , i used to want to be exactly like you . in my eyes , you had it all -- i mean , a career , a loving family . you were perfect . my -- my role model . but not anymore . eve : oh , god , whitney , please do n't say that . whitney : i used to want to be you . but now i do n't want to be anything like you , mom . i 'd rather be dead . t.c . : your sister . liz : yes , t.c . you 've finally gotten it . t.c . : you have equated your sister to eve . liz : what ? t.c . : that 's what happened . liz : equated ? what are you talking about , t.c . ? t.c . : liz , it 's called projecting -- or i think that 's the psychological term . liz : psychological term ? t.c . : yes , liz , you are still angry with your sister . she abandoned you , she betrayed you , she left you with a very abusive father who did horrible things to you . and in your mind , that kept you from being happy . liz : she kept me from being happy . t.c . : no , liz . and now you 're trying to do the same thing with eve because she is keeping you away from me . liz , you feel that you 're going to be unhappy all over again . but eve is not your sister . liz : oh , t.c . ! t.c . : she did not betray you . liz : you are so wrong . you do n't understand what i 'm trying to tell you . t.c . : damn it , no , i 'm not , liz ! you are transferring your feelings to eve because of your sister . liz : no , i 'm not . t.c . : and , liz , that is not fair . eve is a wonderful woman and she would never betray me . liz : t.c . , i do n't know where you got this idea from , but it 's wro -- t.c . : shh , shh . eve : what a hurtful thing to say . whitney : oh , i 'm hurting your feelings ? what a joke . t.c . : man . you knowhahat , liz -- i got to get out there . liz : wait , t.c . , we are not finished . you say that eve is n't like my sister , but she is . she is exactly like my sister . t.c . : what are you talking about ? she represented our country in three different olympics . and what did she get out of it ? $ 13,000 of debt . but when these olympic hopefuls raised their own funds , they got into hot water . in athens , more than records will be broke . tonight 's global national . kay : when i think of how everyone says that i 'm selfish , you 're the selfish one . charity : i was just dancing , kay . i was having fun . kay : ok , i 'm not talking about you acting like a slut in there with those guys . i 'm talking about the way you 're treating miguel . what kind of sick satisfaction do you get in playing with his emotions ? charity : i 'm not playing any games , kay . i sincerely want miguel to be happy . kay : well , then leave him alone . ok , first you try to sleep with reese , and then you dress up like a whore and play suck - face with any guy you can get your hands on . ok , and now all of a sudden you 're making the moves on miguel . what are you up to , charity ? charity : i 'm not up to anything , kay . how many times do i have to tell you that ? kay : well , then let him go ! let him be with me and maria , ok ? let us be a family the way we should be . charity : this is what you 've always wanted , is n't it -- to be with miguel ? kay : yes . i 'll admit that . unlike you , my feelings for him have never changed . i 've always loved him , and i love him now , and i i will love him for the rest of my life . but you , on the other hand , just jump into bed with his best friend , and you do n't even care if he got hurt . charity : it was n't like that . kay : just leave him alone , ok ? let him be happy with his family . maria loves her father . i mean , do you want to take her daddy away from her ? is that what you want ? charity : no . that 's not what i want . i want maria to have her daddy and i want her to live a long , happy life . so you 're right , kay , i 'm going to leave miguel alone , leave him alone and never talk to him again . kay : good . and do n't come back .

whitney : you were it , mom , everything that i aspired to be . you seemed so strong and trustworthy . i wanted to be just like you , in every single way . but now that i know what you 're really like -- a liar , a cheat -- i get sick at the thought that i wanted to be anything like you . that 's what you are , mom . that 's exactly what you are . you 're nothing but a whore . t.c . : are you saying that eve and your sister are alike ? liz : exactly alike . t.c . : how ? eve : this is so unfair . whitney : you 're damn right it is . it 's unfair to that man in there who loves you so much . t.c . : there they go again . you would think they would calm down and have a real conversation instead of yelling . whitney : being unfaithful is unforgivable , mother . liz : you know what , t.c . , forget about me . you go talk to your wife and daughter . find out the answers that you want and deserve . eve : what 's unforgivable is you calling me those horrible names . whitney : oh , you do n't like those ?

john : no , simone 's just saying that it 's contributed to her behavior and this weird phase she 's going through . simone : maybe that 's her way of dealing with all the stress . kay : i just love how you all make excuses for her , but when i do something , you all say it has to do with evil . simone : maybe because with you it usually does . kay : oh , thanks , former best friend . john : i think simone 's just trying to say that we 're not used to seeing charity act like this . kay : oh , well , that makes me feel better . john : but it wo n't last long . sooner or later , charity and miguel will get back together . kay 's voice : you have to be wrong , john . you have to be . miguel : hey . i do n't get it , ok ?

julian : yes , but she -- she 's too emotional to understand . i fear that she will tell her father what she thinks she knows . her mother 's life would be shattered . the woman i love would lose everything . luis : whoa . i feel sorry for the woman , and her daughter . i feel sorry for you , too , julian , strange as that sounds . look , it sounds like the situation 's out of your hands . for all we know , this woman 's life could be imploding as we speak . eve : why wo n't you just let me explain ? whitney : you 're not explaining anything , mom . you 're just making a bunch of lousy excuses . eve : i do n't need any excuses . i have n't done anything wrong ! whitney : what a crock , mom ! eve : i love your father . whitney : and you show it by being with other men , hmm ? eve : that is not true , whitney . julian has just been very supportive lately . whitney : supportive ? oh , please . eve : your father is the man that i love . whitney : then why were you kissing julian crane ? please just -- why ? eve : whitney , it 's just very complicated . whitney : no , mom , i 'm sorry , that 's not going to work . because you 're the one who always told me that love is simple , right ? and if i ever find the right man , i would know it . eve : yes , honey , and you will . whitney : that 's just another one of your lies . you know , i used to want to be exactly like you . in my eyes , you had it all -- i mean , a career , a loving family . you were perfect . my -- my role model . but not anymore . eve : oh , god , whitney , please do n't say that . whitney : i used to want to be you . but now i do n't want to be anything like you , mom . i 'd rather be dead . t.c . : your sister . liz : yes , t.c . you 've finally gotten it . t.c . : you have equated your sister to eve . liz : what ? t.c . : that 's what happened . liz : equated ? what are you talking about , t.c . ? t.c . : liz , it 's called projecting -- or i think that 's the psychological term . liz : psychological term ? t.c . : yes , liz , you are still angry with your sister . she abandoned you , she betrayed you , she left you with a very abusive father who did horrible things to you . and in your mind , that kept you from being happy . liz : she kept me from being happy . t.c . : no , liz . and now you 're trying to do the same thing with eve because she is keeping you away from me . liz , you feel that you 're going to be unhappy all over again . but eve is not your sister . liz : oh , t.c . ! t.c . : she did not betray you . liz : you are so wrong . you do n't understand what i 'm trying to tell you . t.c . : damn it , no , i 'm not , liz ! you are transferring your feelings to eve because of your sister . liz : no , i 'm not . t.c . : and , liz , that is not fair . eve is a wonderful woman and she would never betray me . liz : t.c . , i do n't know where you got this idea from , but it 's wro -- t.c . : shh , shh . eve : what a hurtful thing to say . whitney : oh , i 'm hurting your feelings ? what a joke . t.c . : man . you knowhahat , liz -- i got to get out there . liz : wait , t.c . , we are not finished . you say that eve is n't like my sister , but she is . she is exactly like my sister . t.c . : what are you talking about ? she represented our country in three different olympics . and what did she get out of it ? $ 13,000 of debt . but when these olympic hopefuls raised their own funds , they got into hot water . in athens , more than records will be broke . tonight 's global national . kay : when i think of how everyone says that i 'm selfish , you 're the selfish one . charity : i was just dancing , kay . i was having fun . kay : ok , i 'm not talking about you acting like a slut in there with those guys . i 'm talking about the way you 're treating miguel . what kind of sick satisfaction do you get in playing with his emotions ? charity : i 'm not playing any games , kay . i sincerely want miguel to be happy . kay : well , then leave him alone . ok , first you try to sleep with reese , and then you dress up like a whore and play suck - face with any guy you can get your hands on . ok , and now all of a sudden you 're making the moves on miguel . what are you up to , charity ? charity : i 'm not up to anything , kay . how many times do i have to tell you that ? kay : well , then let him go ! let him be with me and maria , ok ? let us be a family the way we should be . charity : this is what you 've always wanted , is n't it -- to be with miguel ? kay : yes . i 'll admit that . unlike you , my feelings for him have never changed . i 've always loved him , and i love him now , and i i will love him for the rest of my life . but you , on the other hand , just jump into bed with his best friend , and you do n't even care if he got hurt . charity : it was n't like that . kay : just leave him alone , ok ? let him be happy with his family . maria loves her father . i mean , do you want to take her daddy away from her ? is that what you want ? charity : no . that 's not what i want . i want maria to have her daddy and i want her to live a long , happy life . so you 're right , kay , i 'm going to leave miguel alone , leave him alone and never talk to him again . kay : good . and do n't come back . [ door closes ] kay : do n't ever come back . julian : you 're right , luis , her life could be falling apart as we speak . luis : well , is there anything you can do to stop it ? julian : there was a time when i was n't there for her and she needed me . if i could be there for her now , perhaps it would make up for all the pain i caused her then . luis : well , if you love her as much as you say you do , then go to her and be there for her , if you 're not going to cause her any more pain . julian : i will go to her house . if things are bad , she should n't have to face it alone . luis : well , i really need to get to the hospital to see sheridan , find out what the hell 's going on . julian : luis ? you know that wo n't be easy . the doctors banned you from seeing her . luis : well , there 's got to be a way . in fact , i -- i just thought of someone who can help me . julian : who ? luis : well , eve russell . she 's a doctor . she has access to the psych ward . she can tell me what kind of treatment alistair wants to give to sheridan . i 'll bet she 's home right now . i 'm going to go see her . julian : i 'll go with you . luis : well , i thought you were going to go see the woman you love . julian : i am . luis : the woman you love is at eve 's house ? whitney : you were it , mom , everything that i aspired to be . you seemed so strong and trustworthy . i wanted to be just like you , in every single way . but now that i know what you 're really like -- a liar , a cheat -- i get sick at the thought that i wanted to be anything like you . that 's what you are , mom . that 's exactly what you are . you 're nothing but a whore . t.c . : are you saying that eve and your sister are alike ? liz : exactly alike . t.c . : how ? eve : this is so unfair . whitney : you 're damn right it is . it 's unfair to that man in there who loves you so much . t.c . : there they go again . you would think they would calm down and have a real conversation instead of yelling . whitney : being unfaithful is unforgivable , mother . liz : you know what , t.c . , forget about me . you go talk to your wife and daughter . find out the answers that you want and deserve . eve : what 's unforgivable is you calling me those horrible names . whitney : oh , you do n't like those ? i 'm sure i can come up with some different ones . eve : stop this ! just stop it ! julian : no , i meant i 'm going because of sheridan . she 's my sister , i love her , and i 'm concerned about her . luis : ok . julian : is there a problem ? luis : no . you willing to come along ? that 's fine . i 'll go get the car . julian : well , thank you , and i 'm sure that eve will be able to help sheridan . luis : well , i 'm counting on it . julian : god , i love you so much , eve . i hope i can help you get through this and i pray that whitney realizes what 's at stake and does n't tell t.c . the truth . eve : you do n't give me a chance to say anything ! whitney : like i do n't know exactly what you 're going to try to say ! liz : get out there , t.c . talk to them before it gets out of hand . sit them both down and find out what 's really on their minds . t.c . : did i hear right before ? liz : what ? t.c . : i -- i could n't have . liz : was it something whitney said ? t.c . : i 'm going out there . liz : yes . eve : oh , t.c . t.c . : i heard all this yelling in here . i thought you two were going to have a arart - to - heart . what 's going on ? whitney : ask her , daddy . t.c . : no , i 'm asking you . now , i ca n't imagine why you would say this , but i heard something about someone being unfaithful . now , tell me that i heard wrong . whitney : no , you heard right . t.c . : so what is this all about , whitney ? whitney : how -- how it feels when you love someone with your whole heart , and then they betray you , cheat on you , lie to you , daddy . t.c . : whitney , first of all , you need to control the anger that you have inside of you right now . whitney : yes , daddy , i am angry ! god , i mean , who would n't be knowing what i know . right , mom ? liz 's voice : tell him , whitney . tell t.c . everything . eve : please , whitney . whitney : i will never get over this , mom . i just want you to know that . never . t.c . : i get it . eve : what do you -- t.c . : whitney is upset because chad betrayed her and he was unfaithful and she found out that he was still married . liz 's voice : why do you do that , t.c . ? how can you keep on assuming something is true when it is n't ? eve : i know how upset you are , whitney . whitney : no . daddy , listen -- t.c . : sweetheart , you need to let your mother speak . that 's the only way we 're going to settle these thgsgs . go ahead , honey . eve : when you were a little child , i wanted so much for you . i had so many dreams . but mostly all i wanted is for you to be happy . i love you , whitney , more than i can express in words . and i always wanted to set a good role model for you . t.c . : eeeetheart , you were always a good role model . whitney : oh , really , daddy ? ok , ok , let me tell you what kind of mother mom is . let me tell you what kind of role model she has been for us . miguel : where 's charity ? kay : oh . i 'm sorry , miguel , but i just saw her go back into the club . miguel : wait , she could n't have . kay : she did . [ music plays ] man : oh , yeah . second man : it 's my turn , man . miguel : no . this ca n't be happening . kay : oh , yes , it can , miguel . man : that 's my girl , man . second man : oh , my god . luis : well , eve helped me get sheridan out of the psych ward once before . i 'm sure she 'll help me do it again . if not , i 'm just going to have to find another way to get sheridan out of there . julian : i 'm sure eve will know what to do . julian 's voice : hopefully , we 'll get to the russell house in time so i 'll be there when whitney tells t.c . the truth . eve : please , whitney . i love you . t.c . : she knows that , eve . do n't you , whitney ? eve : you know , when you were a baby , i asked myself , what would make her the happiest in the world ? and then it came to me . a sister . she needs to have a sister , someone that she could count on . t.c . : but chad came between the two of you , and i will never forgive him for that . eve : you and your sister formed such a -- such a strong bond that i prayed that it would never be broken . whitney : simone . god , i never thought a man could cost me the love of my own sister . eve : neither did i . liz : your lust for julian ruined everything , eve . it took you away from me , from our whole family . you chose that man over the people who really loved you , eve , over me , your own sister ! i will never forgive you for that , eve . never . whitney : maybe i can reach out to simone . maybe we can work everything out . t.c . : sweetheart , of course you can . whitney : well , at least with simone , everything is out in the open . she knows exactly what i did . i mean , we have that going for us . right , mom ? in order for a problem to be resolved , everybody has to know the truth . eve : no , whitney . t.c . : what the hell is going on here ? whitney : i 'm going to tell you what 's going on , daddy . it 's time for all the lies to be over with . it 's time everything came out in the open . it 's time for everyone to know the truth . liz 's voice : that 's it . it 's all over . your house of cards is finally going to come tumbling down , destroying you , your marriage , and leaving your family in ruins . julian : i 'm not leaving here yet . t.c . : that 's a bad answer , julian . miguel : forget it , charity . i do n't care what you say , ok , you 're coming with me . man : wh 's 's your problem , jerk ? charity : no ! stop !Summarize.[/INST]whitney and her mother continue to argue , and whitney accuses eve of trying to make her tell a lie of omission by not revealing everything to t.c . liz drops hints and it seems for an instant that t.c . makes the connection that eve and liz are sisters ! however , he thinks liz is projecting her hatred of her sister onto eve , because of her desire to seduce t.c . and he turned her down .</s> | 15,209 |

[ birds chirping ] wyatt : i forgot . am i giving a reading ? 'cause i think there were some words about love being patient . bill : come on ! what 's the hold - up ? you know waiting does n't suit me . alison : i have spoken to the caterers , and we 're gon na combine the reception with the cocktails as soon as the ceremony is over . bill : well , who knows when we 're gon na get started ? justin : donna 's probably up there talking brooke 's ear off , so ... bill : i 'm gon na find out what 's going on . alison : i think it is prudent for the groom to stay put . a woman wants to look her best on her wedding day , so you will wait right here and look appropriately dazzled when she arrives . bill : [ groans ] wyatt : i can go sneak up the back stairs if you want me to . hmm ? bill : no . no , no , uh , alison 's right . everything 's been planned , and it 's gon na happen this time . i 've waited this long , right ? i guess i can wait a little bit longer to see my -- my beautiful bride come walking down those stairs . wyatt : [ chuckles ] donna : you 're a beautiful bride on her wedding day . so much to look forward to . the promises you make today , they 're supposed to last a lifetime . you have to mean them . brooke : i will . donna : you ca n't let ridge or the thoughts of the kiss get in your head . brooke : i wo n't . ridge is just acting on old feelings 'cause r.j.

[ tense music ] hope : hey , hi . can i come in for a second ? rafe : yeah . i thought you 'd be at the hospital . hope : actually , i just came from there . i was on my way home to pick up my dad and saw your car parked in the driveway . i thought i 'd , um , stop by and see how things went in court with david . rafe : yeah , um , well , there was a little complication . marlena : ben , i 've got to admit , i 'm not familiar with your sister 's case . ben : you know enough . you know she set fire to the cabin and kidnapped a child . marlena : but i 've never -- i have n't met with her professionally . i can tell you 're upset that she 's been released . ben , i do n't believe the professionals at bayview would 've released her if they thought that she was a danger to herself or anybody else especially a child . ben : well , then she fooled them ! please , dr . evans , you are my only hope right now . i need you to do something to stop jordan from showing her true colors and hurting ciara . jordan : you seem awfully nervous . ciara : you really do n't think i have a good reason to be nervous around you ? jordan : i guess you do . like i said , i am really sorry for the pain that i caused , and i have no intention of ever hurting you again . ciara : what are you doing here , jordan ? jordan : i came to return this . ciara : that 's the gift that ben got for david . jordan : i know . i want to give it to you to avoid another fight with my brother . ciara : what 's wrong with ben getting his nephew a present ? jordan : look , i 'm sure you think his heart is in the right place , but i ca n't accept things from ben . ciara : why not ? jordan : because i ca n't afford to have ben influence or infect david in any way . ciara : infect ? jordan : there is evil still inside of ben , and there always will be . i can not allow that around my son . ciara : ben is not evil . jordan : look , i 'm sorry , ciara , i 'm sure he has you fooled , but you have to trust me . an evil like that never goes away . brady : and now that she is kristen again , she 's up to her old tricks . she 's trying to seduce me and reel me in . sarah : and you 're afraid that you might cave ? brady : why else would i be looking for alcohol in a dry house , sarah ? right ? sarah : you know , there 's other ways to stay away from kristen dimera than getting drunk . brady : hey , if you got a suggestion , i 'm all ears . go ahead . sarah : honestly , cold turkey works best for me . just stay as far away from her as possible . brady : i wish it was that easy , but she ... she 's everywhere . sarah : she really has that kind of pull over you ? brady : look , i -- i know what she 's done . i know she 's a terrible person . she has hurt so many people in this town that i care about . yet still , still ... she has this pull on me that i - i ca n't help . sarah : is it -- do you think that you can change her ? is that it ? brady : i 'm not gon na -- i ca n't change her . she 's kristen dimera . sarah : how did it go when you saw her earlier ? brady : i looked her right in the face , and i said , `` kristen , nothing is ever gon na happen between us . `` sarah : good -- how 'd she take it -- was she upset ? brady : no . no . she shrugged her shoulders , she smirked at me , and said , `` well , if you say so . `` right ? sarah : she 's that confident that you 'll end up together . brady : yeah , and that is what is unsettling to me . it 's as if she thinks it 's just a matter of time , like she knows something . sarah : or she has a plan . brady : it ca n't happen , no matter how much i 'm drawn to her . i 'm never gon na give that woman another chance . hope : jordan was released into your custody ? rafe : well , not exactly . she just needs someone who can vouch for her . hope : after everything she did to ciara ? i have to say , i -- rafe : hope , she has no family here , no one who can look out for her . this way , i can keep watch on her , okay ? not to mention i can keep david in my life . hope : how does she seem ? rafe : okay . a little fragile , i guess . hope : but the doctors at the hospital -- they released her with a clean bill of mental health ? rafe : yeah . she still has to stay in close contact with her doctor till she 's readjusted back into society . i understand . hope , i understand you have absolutely no reason to trust her . hope : damn straight . she tried to kill my daughter , rafe . i do n't want jordan anywhere near her . rafe : yeah . well , it 's a little late for that . ciara : ben is a good and caring person , jordan . jordan : well , i can cite a few dead people that would argue otherwise . ciara : no . no , because if you had actually spent time with him the last time you were here , you would have seen how he 's changed , and maybe you would n't have lost it and got sent away to bayview in the first place . jordan : i was sent to bayview because you -- look , i have made mistakes , okay , but it was ben 's actions that pushed me to extremes . ciara : extremes ? extremes ? jordan , you tried to kill me . jordan : i was trying to get you to see how dangerous ben is . he is the one that belongs in bayview . ciara : oh , my god , you 're still delusional , are n't you ? jordan : i see things really clearly . ben is clyde weston 's son , and he will always have his influence coursing through his veins and if you do n't see that , you are just creating more trouble for yourself . ciara : yeah , you know what , i think it 's time for you to go . jordan : okay . i did what i came to do . you still have a chance to save yourself . ciara : [ small laugh ] thank you . thank you for your concern , but i know your brother , jordan . i love him , and i always will , so ... jordan : it 's your funeral . ciara : wait . i 'm giving you a second chance . why ca n't you do the same for ben , huh ? jordan : because he does n't deserve one . marlena : is it possible that you are overreacting to jordan 's release ? ben : overreacting ? she tried to kill the woman i love , and then when i was alone with her , she -- marlena : go on . ben : [ sighs ] she said that she was sure ciara was going to get hurt . marlena : by her ? ben : not exactly . but when i called her on it , she claimed that she meant that i was going to hurt her , but i know what she really meant . marlena : i 'm gon na tell you something right now . i want you to listen . i want you to stand down , and do not engage with your sister . ben : it 's not me . she 's the threat . marlena : listen to me ! you have worked so hard to get your life back together . do not engage with her . ben : fine . if you ca n't do anything to help me neutralize jordan ... then i 'll find a way to do it on my own . thank you . nyquil severe gives you powerful relief lucas : i want to do the right thing for you . i do , but i do n't wan na say good- bye . i want to honor your life . i want you to live on .

jordan : there is evil still inside of ben , and there always will be . i can not allow that around my son . ciara : ben is not evil . jordan : look , i 'm sorry , ciara , i 'm sure he has you fooled , but you have to trust me . an evil like that never goes away . brady : and now that she is kristen again , she 's up to her old tricks . she 's trying to seduce me and reel me in . sarah : and you 're afraid that you might cave ? brady : why else would i be looking for alcohol in a dry house , sarah ? right ? sarah : you know , there 's other ways to stay away from kristen dimera than getting drunk . brady : hey , if you got a suggestion , i 'm all ears . go ahead . sarah : honestly , cold turkey works best for me . just stay as far away from her as possible . brady : i wish it was that easy , but she ... she 's everywhere . sarah : she really has that kind of pull over you ? brady : look , i -- i know what she 's done . i know she 's a terrible person . she has hurt so many people in this town that i care about . yet still , still ... she has this pull on me that i - i ca n't help . sarah : is it -- do you think that you can change her ? is that it ? brady : i 'm not gon na -- i ca n't change her . she 's kristen dimera . sarah : how did it go when you saw her earlier ? brady : i looked her right in the face , and i said , `` kristen , nothing is ever gon na happen between us . `` sarah : good -- how 'd she take it -- was she upset ? brady : no . no . she shrugged her shoulders , she smirked at me , and said , `` well , if you say so . `` right ? sarah : she 's that confident that you 'll end up together . brady : yeah , and that is what is unsettling to me . it 's as if she thinks it 's just a matter of time , like she knows something . sarah : or she has a plan . brady : it ca n't happen , no matter how much i 'm drawn to her . i 'm never gon na give that woman another chance . hope : jordan was released into your custody ? rafe : well , not exactly . she just needs someone who can vouch for her . hope : after everything she did to ciara ? i have to say , i -- rafe : hope , she has no family here , no one who can look out for her . this way , i can keep watch on her , okay ? not to mention i can keep david in my life . hope : how does she seem ? rafe : okay . a little fragile , i guess . hope : but the doctors at the hospital -- they released her with a clean bill of mental health ? rafe : yeah . she still has to stay in close contact with her doctor till she 's readjusted back into society . i understand . hope , i understand you have absolutely no reason to trust her . hope : damn straight . she tried to kill my daughter , rafe . i do n't want jordan anywhere near her . rafe : yeah . well , it 's a little late for that . ciara : ben is a good and caring person , jordan . jordan : well , i can cite a few dead people that would argue otherwise . ciara : no . no , because if you had actually spent time with him the last time you were here , you would have seen how he 's changed , and maybe you would n't have lost it and got sent away to bayview in the first place . jordan : i was sent to bayview because you -- look , i have made mistakes , okay , but it was ben 's actions that pushed me to extremes . ciara : extremes ? extremes ? jordan , you tried to kill me . jordan : i was trying to get you to see how dangerous ben is . he is the one that belongs in bayview . ciara : oh , my god , you 're still delusional , are n't you ? jordan : i see things really clearly . ben is clyde weston 's son , and he will always have his influence coursing through his veins and if you do n't see that , you are just creating more trouble for yourself . ciara : yeah , you know what , i think it 's time for you to go . jordan : okay . i did what i came to do . you still have a chance to save yourself . ciara : [ small laugh ] thank you . thank you for your concern , but i know your brother , jordan . i love him , and i always will , so ... jordan : it 's your funeral . ciara : wait . i 'm giving you a second chance . why ca n't you do the same for ben , huh ? jordan : because he does n't deserve one . marlena : is it possible that you are overreacting to jordan 's release ? ben : overreacting ? she tried to kill the woman i love , and then when i was alone with her , she -- marlena : go on . ben : [ sighs ] she said that she was sure ciara was going to get hurt . marlena : by her ? ben : not exactly . but when i called her on it , she claimed that she meant that i was going to hurt her , but i know what she really meant . marlena : i 'm gon na tell you something right now . i want you to listen . i want you to stand down , and do not engage with your sister . ben : it 's not me . she 's the threat . marlena : listen to me ! you have worked so hard to get your life back together . do not engage with her . ben : fine . if you ca n't do anything to help me neutralize jordan ... then i 'll find a way to do it on my own . thank you . nyquil severe gives you powerful relief lucas : i want to do the right thing for you . i do , but i do n't wan na say good- bye . i want to honor your life . i want you to live on . [ knock on door ] kayla : do you want me to come back ? lucas : no , no , it 's okay . it 's okay , really , um ... did you order the tests ? kayla : yeah , i did . we should know shortly if your mom 's heart is a match for julie . lucas : thank you . thank you for doing that , okay ? kayla : of course . listen , i want you to know that i think what you 're doing is noble . lucas : not a decision i thought i 'd have to make . kayla : are you having doubts ? lucas : you think ? i have to talk to my siblings . i just wish i knew for sure . i wish i knew for sure this is what my mom wanted . hope : oh , my god . how is ciara ? is she -- i mean , this must be very upsetting for her . is she okay ? rafe : ciara was fine . hope : are you sure ? rafe : yeah . she seemed fine . okay , yes , when , ha , when jordan told ben and ciara that she did n't want ben to have anything to do with david 's life , things , they got a little tense . hope : maybe that 's not such a bad thing right now . at least we 'll keep jordan away from ciara . rafe : yeah ...

[ sighs ] and i do n't want you to worry at all , okay , because you 're gon na be fine . i 'm gon na keep a close eye on you , and you are gon na rest until you get better . and , well , give wyatt the chance he deserves to be happy . oh - oh , oh meet me at the beach oh , oh oh , oh , oh , oh oh - oh , oh [ both laugh ] steffy : this is exactly what i needed . wyatt : see ? and you did n't even want to come . steffy : [ laughs ] wyatt : so what does that tell you ? steffy : i do n't know . what ? wyatt : that i know exactly what you need and do n't ask questions and just do it . steffy : oh , not a chance . not a chance . [ gasps , squeals ] oh , oh , oh , oh oh - oh , oh oh , oh oh , oh , oh , oh oh - oh , oh meet me at the beach katie : this is beautiful . eric : yeah . uh , i have to say , i 've actually questioned the wisdom of bill and brooke working together . katie : [ chuckles ] you and probably a few other people . no one is more painfully aware of their history than i am . but i love my sister . ca n't help it . [ chuckles ] and in spite of everything , i really ca n't imagine my life without her . and i love my husband . bill and i are better than ever . brooke : katie trusts us . we should n't even be talking about this . [ sighs ] you 're a family -- you , will , and katie . i came between you at one point , and i am not going to do that again . bill : i 'm not asking you to . i mean , katie and i , we are good . we 've never been happier . and will ? he feels safe with his parents together . i do n't want to compromise his place in the world . brooke : good . that 's the way it should be . and as far as our feelings and our past , our memories , we 're gon na just have to bury them . bill : how 's that working for us so far ? steffy : [ chuckles ] that was so needed . wyatt : right ? steffy : it 's been so long since i just let loose on the beach and i went into the ocean . oh ! wyatt : what ? ! what a travesty ! steffy : yeah , i honestly think i 'm gon na quit my job . i 'm just gon na downscale my whole life and just ride the waves all day . wyatt : you should . you should do that . i did it once for , well , a couple of months , anyway . steffy : really ? wyatt : yeah . yeah . i found a little beach shack on hawaii . just -- it was perfect . sun , sand , surf all day . it was amazing . steffy : see , that sounds amazing . i just -- i do n't know if i could really do that just because i 'm , you know , i 'm so driven . wyatt : you could totally do it . it would be an adjustment at first , but , you know , you 'd get used to it . why not right now ? let 's go look online . let 's find a beach shack in oahu . steffy : the craziest thing about you is that you actually mean it . wyatt : i 'm so serious right now , yes . i could think of worse fates . i 'm happiest , you know , when it 's just going with the flow , take every day as it comes . steffy : see ? that 's the kind of mentality that i need . wyatt : mm - hmm . steffy : where have you been all my life ? quinn : how bizarre is this ? hmm ? you of all people helpless in my bed ? and you 're not even tied up . [ laughs ] wait . you with me ? you with me ? [ sighs ] okay . okay , okay , okay . obviously -- obviously your body is telling you that you need a little bit more rest . okay . we 're gon na give that to you , 'cause otherwise i would need to call 911 . neither of us want to do that , right ? i mean , you are going to be okay . [ sighing ] i just need ... just need a little bit more time . eric : this connection you have with brooke is very impressive , given everything that 's happened . katie : well , it has n't been easy . but she 's my sister . and living in the past is a mistake . you know what ? i have accepted what happened , and i have chosen to move on , and it 's the right choice . eric : this willingness to forgive -- it 's just like your mother . katie : well , it 's paid off . my life is right where i want it to be . i 'm surrounded by my family , i 'm rebuilding my relationship with my sister , and bill and i are so connected . we have this new understanding , you know . we 've been through so much , and it 's made us stronger . he looks at me , and ... i can tell how much he loves me . it feels good . brooke : i should n't have told you how i feel , but katie was insisting that i work here . so i thought it would be best to be open and honest and somehow work around it . [ sighs ] but you know what ? forget it . i do n't even want to talk about it anymore . bill : what do you mean , you do n't want to talk about it ? i put my feelings on the line , too , brooke . brooke : okay . okay , so we 've both opened our hearts . we 've both been honest about our feelings , but we ca n't act on that . otherwise i ca n't be here . you do understand that , do n't you ? we pledged to be friends . can we do that ? bill : can you ? brooke : yes . because betraying my sister again is not an option . liam : i think you locked me in here . [ beeping ] liam : [ gasps ] quinn : die by the sword . i warned you ! liam : oh ! oh ! wyatt : [ high - pitched voice ] `` i do n't know , wyatt . i do n't know what i want to do . i think i want to sit here and sulk on this couch at liam 's and wait for him on this gorgeous , beautiful malibu day . `` [ normal voice ] it 's always -- steffy : stop ! you are bordering on . i told you so . wyatt : i told you so . steffy : okay , i ... i appreciate what you did for me today . wyatt : yeah ? steffy : yeah . i actually stopped thinking about liam for more than two seconds . wyatt : well , i would say that my job here is done . but i have n't even got started yet . steffy , you -- you are too amazing of a person to just be wasted in pain , waiting for liam to give you his blessing to be in his presence . i mean , come on . you should be deciding on someone who appreciates you . steffy : any suggestions ? wyatt : i may have an idea . [ chuckles ] wyatt : thank you for trusting me . steffy : maybe i should do that more often . wyatt : i wish you would , yeah . steffy : careful what you wish for . wyatt : [ chuckles ] ca n't threaten me with a good time . steffy : [ laughs ] wyatt : look , i - i am sorry , um , that liam hurt you , though . steffy : yeah . a lot of that going around . wyatt : yeah . days like this do help . do it again sometime ? steffy : yeah , yeah . i would love that . that 'd be great . wyatt : okay . hey , if you want to take a shower , there 's extra towels in the linen closet or whatever . steffy : yeah , i - i think i will . wyatt : okay . steffy : oh , and , wyatt ? thank you for making me feel like myself again . wyatt : anytime . [ cell phone rings ] wyatt : [ sighs ] hey , mom . quinn : what are you doing ? wyatt : uh , talking to you . quinn : have you heard anything from steffy ? wyatt : about what ? quinn : you know about what . did liam ever show up ? wyatt : no . he texted her , actually , and said that he was n't coming . quinn : really ? wow . just straight out like that ? that 's cold . and how 'd she take it ? wyatt : about how you 'd expect . she 's pretty upset . quinn : are you with her right now ? wyatt : anyone told you you 're annoying ? quinn : yes . you . all the time . so just answer my question . are you with her right now ? wyatt : yes ! yes , we hung out at the beach . we went surfing for a bit . we 're back at my place , okay ? quinn : so you 're spending quality time together . wyatt : oh , my god . we had a good day , yes . and i 'm hoping to use liam 's absence as a way to get through to her , show her she has another way -- me . you know ? but ... [ sighs ] i do n't know . we -- we both just been through a lot lately , and ... quinn : i know . so take advantage of the situation . be you , but , you know , charm her . and i can assure you that i do n't think her ex is , uh , gon na be an issue tonight . wyatt : okay , i 'm hanging up now . bye . quinn : bye , sweetheart . [ sighs ] [ sighs ] bill : you 're making sense , and i hear you . i love katie . the family that we 've created -- i do n't want to jeopardize it because i 'm -- i 'm selfish enough that i want everything . but i ca n't pretend that i do n't feel what i feel . brooke : you have to ! bill : how do i do that ? how do i shut my brain off ? can you do that ? can you , brooke ? after everything that we 've shared , we were building a life together . all of our experiences , everything that we 've been through . i ca n't forget . i do n't want to forget . but i can let it go , stay committed to katie and will . but i ca n't erase us . i ca n't erase ... you from my mind . brooke : after i lost you , i burrowed myself in my house , and i turned towards alcohol in order to try to forget about you . but obviously that did n't work . i ached for you all the more . god , how i wish -- i wish the circumstances were different . i wish that we could have a chance to be together . but obviously that is n't in the cards . i do appreciate everything . i appreciate the memories . i appreciate what you taught me . you gave me strength . you made me believe in myself . and no man has ever done that , bill . i - i - i do n't know if i could come here every day and see you and hear you . i just think katie 's gon na know something . i 'm gon na turn down the job offer . i 'm gon na tell katie i ca n't work here . bill : i think it 's a little late for that , brooke . brooke : [ sighs ] i just think it 's really too risky . i 'm not very good at hiding my feelings . she knows me too well . i love you . you will always be the greatest love of my life . katie can never know that . katie : [ sighs ] [ gasping ] what ? [ sobs ]Summarize.[/INST]quinn asks liam why he kissed her hands . she asks how he is feeling . he can not tell her who the president is or what day it is . she grabs the medical book again to try to find out what they might anticipate with him later . he keeps drifting in and out . she thinks he passed out in front of her for a reason , giving wyatt and steffy a change to be together where they should be , it 's cosmic action . she will take care of him until he gets better . this will give wyatt a chance . katie drops in on eric to let him know brooke is changing a few things and just giving him heads up . brooke tells bill that none of the things they said to each other matters . all that matters is his life with katie . that is all she will allow herself to think about it . he says maybe she can turn off her memories but he can not get it out of his mind . they had the best of intentions but they shared a lot and the way they still feel about each other . but he will not compromise will 's place in this world so he and katie are strong . brooke says that is as it should be .</s> | 3,325 |

[ chuckles ] most guys i know would not know what to do with that , like , at all . lola : uh ... how come ? abby : well , you know , i think you start to assume that something 's wrong , because , hey , who does n't love sex , right ?

[ sighs ] mariah : because ? kyle : i need to apologize to lola . i 'm worried that i blew her off before . mariah : did you ? kyle : i was on the phone with a vendor who 's trying to weasel his way out of his delivery date . being a royal pain about it . he insisted we hammer things out over lunch . and lola brought me this sandwich as a surprise , and i was all distracted . i should 've just told him to figure it out or he 'd be in breach . which is basically what i told him face - to - face . mariah : well , it sounds like it could n't wait . kyle : yeah . definitely not . i still wish i had n't run out on her . mariah : i think [ scoffs ] you 're not giving lola enough credit if all you did was handle a work emergency at work . i mean , she 's a big girl . she has a job . she 'll understand . kyle : eh , here 's the thing . [ sighs ] that 's not all it was . we had this , um ... issue come up last night , and things got a bit awkward . so she was n't just bringing me a sandwich . i would n't be surprised if she did n't feel hurt . mariah : what kind of issue ? kyle : uh ... lola 's a virgin . mariah : oh , my god . you are not about to be that type of guy ! kyle : whoa , what kind of guy is that ? mariah : the kind of guy that overreacts ! kyle : no , i - i was n't trying to . i swear . it just caught me totally off guard . i mean , look , how can this smart , sexy , confident woman be so -- so , um ... naive is n't the word -- mariah : [ gasps ] how can a guy i usually like this much be this shallow ? lighten up ! kyle : i 'm trying ! right after she told me , she left in kind of a hurry . so we still have n't discussed things much . mariah : well , that 's on you . you need to go talk to her . you need to draw her out . find out her reasons . i mean , you could 've been a cool , calm , caring boyfriend , but instead , you hit the panic button . kyle : no -- mariah : i can totally picture how you reacted when she told you -- like a deer in the headlights . kyle : will you stop ? mariah : you know , maybe she 's saving herself for marriage . maybe it 's for religious reasons . is that so crazy ? kyle : of course not . but ... what if that is n't it ? [ sighs ] mariah : [ gasps ] oh , no . you do n't think it 's , like , a personal choice , do you ? i mean , the horror . kyle : i could do with less sarcasm . mariah : well , i 'm exasperated . what can i say ? kyle : [ sighs ] with me ? mariah : certainly not with lola . kyle : she and i -- look , we 've been getting kind of serious , you know ? so i just ... assumed that at some point she ... mariah : at some point , what ? kyle : that she would 've had ... you know what kind of pressure that puts on a guy , being the first ? mariah : wow . i 'm really surprised that you could fit your big head through the door on the way in . kyle : [ sighs ] mariah : you know what ? maybe lola is n't saving herself for marriage . maybe she 's just saving herself for somebody better than you . rey : i ca n't accept this . sharon : why ? rey : it 's too much . sharon : it 's really not . rey : sharon -- sharon : i want you to have it . look , it 's about to expire , so just take it , please . if you do n't , then it will go to waste . rey : look what i have on . i 'll -- i 'll look out of place . sharon : you keep a suit here for when you have to testify in court . wear that . rey : look , if you want to talk about this ... sharon : that 's the point . we have talked . if you think that 's what i want , then you 're not getting why i 'm offering you this . rey : you 're sending me a message . sharon : no , i 'm trying to send myself a message . the number 's on the card . give them a call , make a reservation for tonight . then call mia and tell her there 's been a change of plans . trust me . she 's gon na love you for it . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . mia : how do i look ? rey : [ exhales loudly ] sensational . mia : i 've been dying to wear this dress . your favorite color . rey : it looks beautiful on you . mia : oh , my goodness . i 'm so excited about our evening . the top of the tower ? rey : [ chuckles ] mia : imi amor ! i 've heard amazing things about this place . the -- the views , the food . oh ! you 've really upped your game , rosales . rey : we should probably go . come on . mia : lead the way . abby : lola , wait ! please . lola : no , i think we 've talked enough . abby : i did n't mean what i said . that 's not how i feel . i was just thinking that maybe that 's how guys feel . not kyle , but , you know , guys in general . if this is about your faith -- lola : no , it 's not about that . and i know that it is for a lot of people , and i respect it . abby : so do i . lola : but for me , it 's ... different . uh ... i 've been waiting for the right person . um ... i want to be in a committed relationship with the guy who might be ... abby : the one . lola : yes . and the way that i see it ... you know , you can only give that gift once , and the guy better be the right one . abby : it makes total sense to me . lola : yes , and i have seen how sex can mess things up when the two people involved should n't be . abby : like arturo and mia . lola : yes . perfect example . my god . i just sometimes feel like the fallout from that disaster is never going to end . abby : well , it better end soon , because i am counting on it . lola : you know , and that 's not the only reason i have waited . sex always seems to make things so complicated , which eats up a lot of time , and i want to open up my own restaurant someday , and that takes a ton of work . i ca n't afford to get caught up in a lot of ridiculous drama . abby : you have a dream for your life . goals that you want to achieve . i can relate . lola : yeah , and just putting myself out there , you know , trying to find the one special guy to get serious with -- it just has n't been on my priority list . if i had n't been so focused on the cooking and establishing my business , getting the food truck off the ground , getting a following , maybe that department would have taken off by now . who knows ? i just ... abby : i 'm impressed . and now that i understand where you 're coming from ... it makes sense . but where does kyle fit in to all of this ? lola : well , i like him a lot . and he likes me , too . it 's just ... the way he reacted , i mean , i 'm so confused . [ footsteps approach ] abby : this might be a , um ... a stupid question , but how did the subject come up ? lola : well , thanksgiving night , he invited me to spend the weekend at your family 's cabin . and i knew that that was gon na come with certain expectations , so i told him i was n't going to go , and naturally he asked me why i did n't want to . abby : say no more . lola : and so , earlier today , i saw him at jabot , and i felt like he was trying to avoid me . or maybe i 'm just paranoid . who knows ? abby : what happened ? lola : well , i brought him lunch as a surprise . you know , it 's like he did n't even want it . or maybe i just got our signals crossed . i -- i do n't -- i do n't know . abby : okay . well , you 're not going to know until you guys sit down and you talk . and regardless ... i mean , you deserve to be with someone that 's gon na back you up , that 's gon na be proud of you for the strong choice that you 've made . and i do think that that guy is kyle . he just needs time to process what you told him . lola : i hope so . abby : you 're not like most girls these days . [ chuckles ] and you 're definitely not like the girls kyle 's been with -- and i mean that in the best way possible . lola : thank you , abby . i 'm glad we talked . abby : hey . you were attracted to kyle for a reason . not just his looks and his superficial charm . it was a vibe you got from him , yes ? lola : mm - hmm . abby : give him the chance to show you that your instincts were right . come here . mariah : so you 're really not gon na reach out to lola ? kyle : after you convinced me that , whatever i say , i 'll make a boneheaded mess of things ? mariah : [ scoffs ] okay . i 'm sorry about giving you a hard time . it 's just , you 're a very easy target . kyle : thanks ? [ sighs ] mariah : look , if you really want to know what 's going on in lola 's head , there 's only one person you should be talking to , and it 's not me . maybe she just wants to get to know you a little bit better before jumping into bed with you . is that so wrong ? i 'll bring your drinks and a list of tonight 's specials . rey : thank you . mia : miami has some fabulous restaurants , but ... wow , you know ? [ gasps , exclaims ] rey : there 's quite a steak selection . mia : ooh , let me see . oh , god . these prices , babe . can we even afford this ? rey : no , it 's okay . it 's okay . do n't worry about that . just keep your eyes on the left side of the page . mia : i think i 'll wait for the specials . rey : order whatever you like . mia : far cry from double pepperoni . what made you change your mind ? rey : about this place ? um ... i heard someone mention it , thought you might want to try it . mia : but even when we were good , we never went out this fancy . rey : maybe i 'm ... sending myself a message . that if we want to make things better between us , it 's time to start putting in the work . abby : damn it ! arturo : hey . hey , what 's going on ? abby : why do i even try ? seriously , it 's like shouting into a wind tunnel . arturo : baby , slow down . what happened ? did n't it go well with nick ? abby : well , i made a strong case why we should buy the property -- pick it up for a song , finish what the other developer started , lead the way in a hot new area . arturo : what 'd he say ? abby : are you kidding me ? he barely even listened to me . he let me talk for like five minutes , and then he started listing reasons why he 's not interested in pursuing it . arturo : like what ? abby : like he has this huge global vision , and i 'm thinking too small . i 'm chasing after pennies . i showed him all of the projections , and he got annoyed with me . he said dark horse is only interested in investing in things that are gon na be a big win . `` big win `` meaning millions of dollars . he made me feel small and stupid . arturo : hey , baby -- abby : no ! i am upset right now , and it 's okay for me to be upset . it 's better than me shoving down all the negativity for the sake of the team . someone else 's team ! well , you know what ? screw the team ! you know what this reminds me of ? [ chuckles angrily ] arturo : no . abby : oh ! when i was working at newman , and my dad , he would pat me on the head , and he would say , `` you know what , you 're on the wrong track again . but , you know , keep on going , keep on chugging . you 'll get it right someday . `` meanwhile , he offers summer a job in dubai . he gives summer the opportunity of a lifetime to prove herself , someone that 's so green and immature . and you know what ? i am done . i am so done ! arturo : i ca n't say i blame you . abby : right ? arturo : see , here 's the thing , though -- you do n't need nick 's permission or your dad 's to bring your own ideas to life . you have resources . connections . confidence in your own ability . your worth does not depend on someone else 's permission or validation , babe . abby : okay , what 's your point ? arturo : i guess i 'm telling you to just prove them wrong . ana : hamilton - winters has been expanding a lot . devon : yes , it has . it sure has . and it 's gon na be even better having you there , i 'll tell you , 'cause it 's been a little -- a little lonely in the office with neil gone , you know ? ana : enough business . how are you ? we 've probably talked a dozen times since hilary died , but ... devon : yeah . ana : sometimes it 's hard to tell what 's really going on from a phone call . devon : i know . i 'm doing all right . but , uh ... i mean , to be honest , it 's -- it 's a little tough here and there , and i do n't always handle things the best , but ... life goes on , you know ? ana : let 's hope me being here can help with that . devon : oh , i 'm -- i think it will . [ chuckles ] [ both laugh ] cane : having ana here has really lifted his spirits . nate : yeah , that 's the plan . let 's hope it lasts . cane : well ... rey : should be all set . mm - hmm . mia : mm - hmm . mmm ! every bite ... rey : mm - hmm . mia : ... every moment of this evening has been heaven , from start to finish . rey : mm . i 'm glad you enjoyed it . we 're trying , right ? one step at a time . mia : every step we take , we take together . rey : i 'm glad we 're finally on the same page . [ cellphone rings ] mia : oh , whoever it is , tell them we 're busy . rey : oh , it 's the station . it could be important . i 'll make it quick , i promise . mia : hurry back ! [ sighs ] here you are , mrs . newman . mia : excuse me ? sharon newman , right ? that 's the name on the gift card . mia : of course . yes . just need to sign . tip 's included . mia : oh , okay . [ scribbling ] thank you . of course . rey : everything okay ? mia : everything 's perfect . um ... now , come on . help me finish this dessert . rey : uh - huh . [ mia chuckles ] sharon : hey . i did n't know that you would be here . mariah : hi . yeah , i , uh , came for a quick bite after we finished taping . i also thought i 'd stick around , see how the rey situation went . sharon : oh , it -- it was fine . it was no problem . mariah : really ? sharon : yeah . i meant what i said before -- i want rey and mia to work things out . mariah : okay . sharon : um , i have to get something from the back office . i 'll be right back . [ cellphone chimes ] mia : let 's get upstairs . rey : okay . mia : okay . abby : you really think i should just go for it ? buy the property , do the deal on my own ? arturo : see , you keep thinking of guys like victor and nick as gatekeepers . throw that out . if someone tells you no , do n't stop . you play it like they would . find a way around them . treat them like any other obstacle . abby : you really think i can do this on my own ? arturo : i 'm not saying it 's gon na be easy , but if you want it bad enough -- abby : no , i do . heh ... i really do . i can feel it in my bones . this is an incredible opportunity . arturo : well , then , what 's stopping you ? abby : nothing . i mean , i wish more people believed in me , but ... [ chuckles ] arturo : but what ? abby : i got you for that . and that is enough . mia : [ sighs ] what a great night . our best in ... i do n't know how long . rey : it was . [ sighs ] mia : what is it ? rey : we agreed . [ sighs ] one step at a time . right ? mia : and that means what to you ? rey : [ sighs ] i do n't want to keep disappointing you . it 's better i tell you when i 'm ready . for this . ana : nate ? nate : yeah ? oh , yeah ? i forget something ? ana : what ? nate : did i forget something ? ana : oh , no . you 're fine . i just told devon it would be good to know where the trash chute is . nate : ahh . just ... long as we have a moment , uh , i spoke to neil earlier today , and he ca n't thank you enough for the way that you dropped everything to come back here . ana : i 'm the one that 's thankful . this sounds like my dream job . learning the music business from behind the scenes ? it 's an awesome opportunity . nate : you seem pretty excited . ana : definitely . nate : good . ana : although , i do have a question . nate : fire away . what 's up ? ana : devon does n't seem nearly as depressed as neil made it sound . nate : yeah , neil and i both -- both , uh , assumed that today would go like that . it 's fun , easy . a special family occasion . finding his sister at the door like that , it really lit devon up . and , now , although you guys were n't raised together , devon , he thinks the world of you , ana . ana : i hear a `` but `` coming . nate : yes . devon is struggling . and tomorrow , he could be right back down in the thick of it . and that 's why neil and i both thought it was a good idea that you come back here . to keep an eye on him without letting him know that that 's what you were doing . okay ? i 'll do all i can to help . we have to help him together . ana : [ scoffs ] we ca n't be too obvious , nate . devon 's smart . he 'll see right through it . nate : maybe . but , uh , devon is in a downward spiral . and , i mean , you coming back may be the only thing that keeps it from ending badly . all right ? | abby is hurt that victoir did n't ask her if she wanted the jobin duba if though she would n't have taken the job so she decides to pitch nick a promising real estate property . aaaaanick does n't even listen to her suggestion which leaves her feeling undervalued so arturo suggests she buy the property with her own money and prove nick and her father wrong . abby is excited and pleased that atruro likes her idea and decides to buy the property with her own money . abby and mariah advice lola and kyle to talk to ea ch other to get past the hurdle of kyle 's shock about lola being a virgin . rey and mia have a romantic evenning at the top of the tower courtesy of a gift card that was given to sharon which ; she gave to rey for his date night . mariah tells sharon she does n't know what to do about her relationship with tessa . cane , nate , mattie and charlie arrive at devon 's place fr a belated thanksgiving dinner.since he did n't go to thanksgiving with lily and neil . devon 's sister anna also returns to geneoa city as a surprise for devon . anna tells devon neil thought she would be a good assistant for devon at hamilton winters group . nate later tells anna that he and neil thought she could keep an eye on devon without him knowing it and help them stop his downward spiral . | <s>[INST] [ previously_on ] mia : rey is mine . you ca n't have him . so back off . understand ? sharon : you love mia , and you do n't want to lose her . rey : i don't . sharon : that 's all you needed to say to me . lola : i 've never done it before . kyle : i 'm ... sorry ? what ? lola : when we have sex , that 'll be my first time . nate : did you really bail on spending thanksgiving with your family so you could party with your co - workers ? cane : just wish you would tell us how you 're feeling instead of trying to use work as an excuse . devon : i know that you guys may not approve of how i conduct my business or how i 'm handling lily , but i 'm just doing whatever i can to survive right now . [ doorbell ringing ] devon : [ sighs ] yes ? charlie and mattie : surprise ! devon : what is this ? charlie : talk to dad . devon : what 's -- cane : hope you 're hungry . devon : hey . wait ! hey ! what 's going on ? cane : uh , nate 'll explain . nate : [ sighs ] well , neither one of us had a proper thanksgiving when cane was up seeing lily , so i figured i 'd rectify that . devon : you did n't want to tell me or give me a heads up ? nate : uh , cane suggested it but i said no . i figured you 'd find another reason to not be here , whether it be working or laying down tracks at the studio . or just , you know , hanging with your crew . devon : so this is an ambush ? that 's what it is ? nate : pretty much , yeah . [ sighs ] sharon : so , how did you and tessa leave things ? mariah : i have no idea . by the time i left , i could barely look her in the eye . i 'm just so numb right now . sharon : oh , i 'm so sorry . mariah : i mean , what tessa did to you guys is so ... messed up . and i can absolutely see why you let her go . sharon : uh , yeah . you know [ sighs ] under the circumstances , her working here just was n't a good fit . mariah : you know , tessa asked me if i thought there was anything left to salvage . and i realized that i do n't know . sharon : you still do n't know if you want to walk away . mariah : nikki and victoria said that i do n't have to . that i can stay with tessa , even knowing what i know about her character -- or profound lack thereof . but i just do n't know if i can be with somebody knowing that they lied to me over and over again . sharon : you 're still in love with her . mariah : will you please just tell me what to do ? sharon : as difficult as this is , mariah , the answer is going to have to come from you . just search hard , and i promise it will be there , deep inside . your heart knows what it wants , and your head will tell you whether it 's worth the battle . mariah : [ sighs ] i should get to the studio . sharon : i 'll walk you out . mia : you sure i ca n't pack you a lunch ? rey : i do n't know what my schedule is today . mia : mmph . sharon ! is this your daughter ? hi . mariah : hi . mia : i 'm -- i 'm mia . oh , i 've seen you on tv . my -- my husband and i are big fans . abby : no , this is fantastic . thank you so much . i will get back to you as soon as i know . thank you ! [ squeals ] arturo : wow . someone 's all charged up about something . abby : someone has had a fire lit under them . mm ! arturo : wow . what 's going on ? abby : well [ sighs ] out of the clear blue sky , my father offered summer a job in dubai . yes , summer will be heading up the middle eastern real - estate empire for newman enterprises . arturo : wow . that 's , um -- abby : that 's a lot of responsibility for someone that young and with that little experience ? arturo : uh , yeah . abby : to be fair , she will be training at first , with my dad as her mentor , but still . he never asked if i was interested in the job , and that really burns my butt . arturo : why ? i mean , you -- you have a great job here , running dark horse 's p.r . program . abby : i have a great job for now . but not forever . arturo : okay , hold up . i - i 'm confused . you came to work for nick to get away from newman and your father . so why would you be upset that you were n't even in the running ? abby : [ sighs ] you just do n't get it . arturo : no . i don't . abby : i do n't want summer 's job . at all . i don't . but the fact that i was never even considered , i mean , it speaks volumes about how i 'm perceived . arturo : how victor perceives you . not nick . nick values you highly . abby : i do n't want to be `` valued . `` i want to be a superstar . and this -- this is gon na get me on the road to that . kyle : we need that shipment , dale . we needed it last week , and we already gave you an extra wee -- look , i -- look , i know you guys are having some technical issues . but our customers don't . all they know is their favorite jabot products are n't on the shelves , which translates to -- no ! no , no , no , no . we ca n't pick this up later . we have deadlines we ca n't miss . stay with me here until we solve this . [ sighs angrily ] fine . go . but call me right back . [ sighs ] lola . lola : kyle . kyle : what are you doing here ? lola : i 'm delivering some lunch orders . in fact , i have one for you . kyle : but ... i did n't order anything . lola : maybe i just wanted to surprise you . [ cellphone rings ] kyle : [ sighs ] sorry . i 've got to get this . um ... i 'd let it go to voicemail , but i can't . dale . where were we ? mm - hmm . at humana , we believe great things are ahead of you when you start with healthy . and part of staying healthy means choosing the right medicare plan . humana can help . with original medicare , you 're covered for hospital stays and doctor office visits when you 're sick . but keep in mind you 'll have to pay a deductible for each . a medicare supplement plan can cover your deductibles and co - insurance , but you may pay higher premiums than you do with other plans . and prescription drug coverage is n't included . but , with an all - in - one humana medicare advantage plan , you could get all that coverage plus part d prescription drug benefits . you get all this coverage for zero dollar monthly plan premium in most areas . and humana has a large network of doctors and hospitals . so call or go online today . find out if your doctor is part of the humana network and get your free decision guide . discover how an all - in - one medicare advantage plan from humana could save you money . there is no obligation and the book is free . additional sponsorship abby : this area , just west of the old train depot . are you familiar with it ? arturo : yeah , it 's , uh , up - and - coming . just starting to gentrify . abby : yeah , it 's on the verge of becoming hot . and this building is right smack dab right in the middle of it . it 's a mixed - use building . commercial on the bottom , apartments above , and it 's just sitting there , empty . it 's 90 % finished , but the developer ran out of money , so he needs to sell it , and fast , at an excellent price . arturo : yeah , well , it 's only an excellent price if the neighborhood takes off like you expect it to . abby : yeah , but this property could drive that change . the opportunities are limitless . arturo : and you want dark horse to pounce . abby : i am gon na pitch it to nick as soon as he 's out of his meeting . if i fill that bottom floor with the right commercial mix , it could be a big win for us . arturo : for you , too . baby , after this thing takes off , no one will ever underestimate abby newman again . no one but a fool , that is . it 's gon na be great . abby : mm . i like the way you think ! [ arturo chuckles ] kyle : clearly we ca n't solve this on the phone . i 'll come to you . we 'll meet in person . you want to do this over lunch ? i think we 'd get more accomplished if we focused on the problem rather than -- [ sighs ] fine . i 'm on my way . [ sighs ] [ bag thuds ] [ sandwich wrapper crinkling ] mariah : i am glad you enjoy the show so much . mia : oh , my gosh . we -- we would n't miss it . i wanted to say hi at thanksgiving , for sharon 's dinner , but , um ... we were both so busy , i never got a chance . mariah : that 's awesome . well , i have to get -- mia : i have so many questions about television . it fascinates me . like , um ... what 's it like to host a show like `` gc buzz , `` you know ? mariah : uh ... mia : i bet you get all sorts of bad behavior . [ chuckles ] rey : um , i -- heh , heh ... i hate to cut this short , but i got to get to work , okay ? mia : oh , okay . rey : i 'll see you at the station , all right ? mia : sorry . okay . sharon : bye . mariah : bye . mia : oh , any chance you can get off early tonight ? rey : i 'll call you later . we 'll figure it out . mia : maybe dinner ? dancing ? rey : uh , one of the sergeants told me about this great pizza place on elm . it 's not supposed to be too cold out . we can walk there . i 'll see you tonight , okay ? mia : okay . ca n't wait . sharon : [ sighs ] mariah , if you have to go -- mariah : soon . but i have a feeling you could use a shoulder to cry on , too ? rey ? sharon : was i that obvious ? mariah : uh , you weren't . but mia was . do you want to talk about it ? sharon : [ sighs ] there 's nothing to say . except i messed up and let my judgment get clouded . he 's a married man . and they may have had their issues , but he wants to work things out . mariah : and ? sharon : and ... nothing . we both let things get a little confusing before mia arrived from florida . but she 's here now , so that 's that . mariah : well , `` confusing `` can mean a lot of different things . sharon : we did n't cross any lines . mariah : but you could 've ? sharon : well , rey and i both admitted we started caring for each other . but it ca n't go anywhere , and it shouldn't . mariah : says who ? sharon : says me . mariah : well , you 're acting like you can turn your feelings off like it 's a spigot . but i can say , with some authority at this point , that that 's not how it works . sharon : if tessa 's the one that you want to be with , you can always go back to her . sometimes it 's just what you have to do until you know in your gut what the answer is . but my sole option with my friend is to give him time and space to heal his marriage . devon : you know , maybe if you would have given me a heads up , i could have had shauna here . cane : i 'm sorry , okay ? it was n't deliberate , all right ? i mean ... charlie asked me to invite her . it just -- it just slipped my mind , all right , 'cause i 'm just so ... i do n't know . i 'm just so emotionally spent , all right , from spending thanksgiving in a prison , eating food from a vending machine , instead of having a hot meal with my family , all right ? we have tried so hard to make things positive for lily . and we may be smiling , but we just feel like screaming . but , i mean , it 's worked , all right , because these last few days meant a lot to lily . and it 's good that neil is there , 'cause she still has a long road ahead of her . devon : i know it 's a long road . at least you can see the end of yours . cane : what do you mean by this ? devon : i mean you 're gon na get your wife back one day , that 's what i mean . cane : come on . do n't be like this . devon : you 're lucky . cane : you do n't have to be like this . devon : i apologize . i 've had a rough week , all right ? i 'm gon na get a drink . cane : come on , man . you do n't need this . you do n't need this , all right ? listen . you may feel like we 're barging in on you , but that 's because we love you , all right ? i mean , look at these guys . look what they 've done . do n't ruin this for them .

[ chuckles ] how are you ? oh ! rey : sharon . i 'm so glad you 're here . sharon : oh , why ? is there a case that i need to ... ? rey : no , no . it 's not work . i -- i wanted to apologize . sharon : for what ? rey : before . the coffeehouse . mia . she ca n't help herself sometimes . sharon : no , you -- you have nothing to apologize for . and , frankly , neither does mia . she wants to put her marriage back together . and i know you do , too . rey : still , she had no right to -- sharon : you know , if anyone 's sorry , it 's me . i should have let the two of you say goodbye in private . instead i stood there listening to you talk about date night . rey : we 're going out for pizza . it 's -- it 's not a big deal . sharon : yeah , you 're right . it 's not . but it should be , you know ? pizza 's not a date . that 's no way to show the woman you love that you want to make her happy . rey : what do you suggest ? sharon : um ... you know what ? here . take this gift card . it 's good for dinner for two at the top of the tower . it 's just been sitting in my purse for a long time . i want you to have it . rey : no , sharon . i ca n't take that . that 's -- that 's yours . you should be the one to -- to -- sharon : no , i have no use for it . you do . so , go . have a wonderful time with your wife . i insist . ana : i ca n't get over it . you 're seniors ! mattie : yep . it 's our last year of high school . charlie : mm - hmm . then we graduate . then we get to have -- wait for it ... more school . ana : [ laughs ] it 's so great to see you guys . i wish neil could be here , too . devon : so , what 's with the timing ? ana : ' scuse me ? devon : well -- well , you 're here . someone must have put you up to coming here right now . nate : blame me . devon : all right . nate : it was my idea . cane : yeah . we agreed you should have family around , so -- ana : so neil called and asked what i 'd think about coming back here . `` strength in numbers `` -- i believe that 's how he put it . devon : that sounds a lot like him . why does n't everybody take a seat ? mattie : so , ana , what have you been up to ? last i heard , you were a professional singer . ana : [ chuckles ] i gave that up a while ago . charlie : wait , really ? why ? ana : i was n't making enough to live on . something had to give . devon : she was signed to the label that i had before lp , and we released a few decent - sized hits . ana : it 's a competitive business . sometimes building on an earlier success is harder than breaking in as the `` fresh , new face . `` so i went back to college , got my degree . cane : arts administration , right ? how 'd that work out for you ? ana : i loved school . unfortunately , job hunts left a lot to be desired . cane : ugh . ana : economy 's booming , but i 'm still searching for that right position . nate : and that is when neil had his big brainstorm . devon : what big brainstorm ? nate : well , you 're , uh , still searching for an assistant to replace tessa , right ? devon : that 's right . and you 'd be willing to move back here take that position ? is that what you 're saying ? ana : i did n't over - pack for nothing . i 'd love it . devon : oh , my gosh . i would love it . you 're hired ! ana : [ laughs ] devon : oh , man ! lola : how long will arturo be out ? abby : he 's at an inspection , so it could be a while . but if you want to leave me the sandwich , i can make sure he gets it when he gets back . lola : all right , sure . thanks . abby : you 're welcome . lola . are you okay ? you seem a little off . lola : a friend of mine is going through something . things are a little tense with this guy that she 's seeing . and , well , she does n't really know what to do about it . abby : okay . tell me everything . i am great at solving problems , especially relationship ones . as long as it 's not my relationship . [ chuckles ] lola : well , i promised that i would keep it quiet . abby : i wo n't say a word . i promise . lola : okay , well , my friend ... how do i put this ? she 's kind of ... inexperienced . abby : sexually , you mean ? lola : mm - hmm . abby : is she a virgin ? lola : men tend to get a little weirded out when they hear it , and it becomes this huge deal . abby : yeah . [ chuckles ] most guys i know would not know what to do with that , like , at all . lola : uh ... how come ? abby : well , you know , i think you start to assume that something 's wrong , because , hey , who does n't love sex , right ? [ laughs ] and then you start to assume that maybe the person 's really religious , or maybe they 're a prude or socially inept , or maybe a combination of all of those things , and -- oh , wow . we 're not talking about a friend of yours . kyle : [ sighs ] [ sighs ] mariah : you do n't look happy . kyle : i 'm not . [ sighs ] mariah : because ? kyle : i need to apologize to lola . i 'm worried that i blew her off before . mariah : did you ? kyle : i was on the phone with a vendor who 's trying to weasel his way out of his delivery date . being a royal pain about it . he insisted we hammer things out over lunch . and lola brought me this sandwich as a surprise , and i was all distracted . i should 've just told him to figure it out or he 'd be in breach . which is basically what i told him face - to - face . mariah : well , it sounds like it could n't wait . kyle : yeah . definitely not . i still wish i had n't run out on her . mariah : i think [ scoffs ] you 're not giving lola enough credit if all you did was handle a work emergency at work . i mean , she 's a big girl . she has a job . she 'll understand . kyle : eh , here 's the thing . [ sighs ] that 's not all it was . we had this , um ... issue come up last night , and things got a bit awkward . so she was n't just bringing me a sandwich . i would n't be surprised if she did n't feel hurt . mariah : what kind of issue ? kyle : uh ... lola 's a virgin . mariah : oh , my god . you are not about to be that type of guy ! kyle : whoa , what kind of guy is that ? mariah : the kind of guy that overreacts ! kyle : no , i - i was n't trying to . i swear . it just caught me totally off guard . i mean , look , how can this smart , sexy , confident woman be so -- so , um ... naive is n't the word -- mariah : [ gasps ] how can a guy i usually like this much be this shallow ? lighten up ! kyle : i 'm trying ! right after she told me , she left in kind of a hurry . so we still have n't discussed things much . mariah : well , that 's on you . you need to go talk to her . you need to draw her out . find out her reasons . i mean , you could 've been a cool , calm , caring boyfriend , but instead , you hit the panic button . kyle : no -- mariah : i can totally picture how you reacted when she told you -- like a deer in the headlights . kyle : will you stop ? mariah : you know , maybe she 's saving herself for marriage . maybe it 's for religious reasons . is that so crazy ? kyle : of course not . but ... what if that is n't it ? [ sighs ] mariah : [ gasps ] oh , no . you do n't think it 's , like , a personal choice , do you ? i mean , the horror . kyle : i could do with less sarcasm . mariah : well , i 'm exasperated . what can i say ? kyle : [ sighs ] with me ? mariah : certainly not with lola . kyle : she and i -- look , we 've been getting kind of serious , you know ? so i just ... assumed that at some point she ... mariah : at some point , what ? kyle : that she would 've had ... you know what kind of pressure that puts on a guy , being the first ? mariah : wow . i 'm really surprised that you could fit your big head through the door on the way in . kyle : [ sighs ] mariah : you know what ? maybe lola is n't saving herself for marriage . maybe she 's just saving herself for somebody better than you . rey : i ca n't accept this . sharon : why ? rey : it 's too much . sharon : it 's really not . rey : sharon -- sharon : i want you to have it . look , it 's about to expire , so just take it , please . if you do n't , then it will go to waste . rey : look what i have on . i 'll -- i 'll look out of place . sharon : you keep a suit here for when you have to testify in court . wear that . rey : look , if you want to talk about this ... sharon : that 's the point . we have talked . if you think that 's what i want , then you 're not getting why i 'm offering you this . rey : you 're sending me a message . sharon : no , i 'm trying to send myself a message . the number 's on the card . give them a call , make a reservation for tonight . then call mia and tell her there 's been a change of plans . trust me . she 's gon na love you for it . `` the young and the restless `` will continue . mia : how do i look ? rey : [ exhales loudly ] sensational . mia : i 've been dying to wear this dress . your favorite color . rey : it looks beautiful on you . mia : oh , my goodness . i 'm so excited about our evening . the top of the tower ? rey : [ chuckles ] mia : imi amor ! i 've heard amazing things about this place . the -- the views , the food . oh ! you 've really upped your game , rosales . rey : we should probably go . come on . mia : lead the way . abby : lola , wait ! please . lola : no , i think we 've talked enough . abby : i did n't mean what i said . that 's not how i feel . i was just thinking that maybe that 's how guys feel . not kyle , but , you know , guys in general . if this is about your faith -- lola : no , it 's not about that . and i know that it is for a lot of people , and i respect it . abby : so do i . lola : but for me , it 's ... different . uh ... i 've been waiting for the right person . um ... i want to be in a committed relationship with the guy who might be ... abby : the one . lola : yes . and the way that i see it ... you know , you can only give that gift once , and the guy better be the right one . abby : it makes total sense to me . lola : yes , and i have seen how sex can mess things up when the two people involved should n't be . abby : like arturo and mia . lola : yes . perfect example . my god . i just sometimes feel like the fallout from that disaster is never going to end . abby : well , it better end soon , because i am counting on it . lola : you know , and that 's not the only reason i have waited . sex always seems to make things so complicated , which eats up a lot of time , and i want to open up my own restaurant someday , and that takes a ton of work . i ca n't afford to get caught up in a lot of ridiculous drama . abby : you have a dream for your life . goals that you want to achieve . i can relate . lola : yeah , and just putting myself out there , you know , trying to find the one special guy to get serious with -- it just has n't been on my priority list . if i had n't been so focused on the cooking and establishing my business , getting the food truck off the ground , getting a following , maybe that department would have taken off by now . who knows ? i just ... abby : i 'm impressed . and now that i understand where you 're coming from ... it makes sense . but where does kyle fit in to all of this ? lola : well , i like him a lot . and he likes me , too . it 's just ... the way he reacted , i mean , i 'm so confused . [ footsteps approach ] abby : this might be a , um ... a stupid question , but how did the subject come up ? lola : well , thanksgiving night , he invited me to spend the weekend at your family 's cabin . and i knew that that was gon na come with certain expectations , so i told him i was n't going to go , and naturally he asked me why i did n't want to . abby : say no more . lola : and so , earlier today , i saw him at jabot , and i felt like he was trying to avoid me . or maybe i 'm just paranoid . who knows ? abby : what happened ? lola : well , i brought him lunch as a surprise . you know , it 's like he did n't even want it . or maybe i just got our signals crossed . i -- i do n't -- i do n't know . abby : okay . well , you 're not going to know until you guys sit down and you talk . and regardless ... i mean , you deserve to be with someone that 's gon na back you up , that 's gon na be proud of you for the strong choice that you 've made . and i do think that that guy is kyle . he just needs time to process what you told him . lola : i hope so . abby : you 're not like most girls these days . [ chuckles ] and you 're definitely not like the girls kyle 's been with -- and i mean that in the best way possible . lola : thank you , abby . i 'm glad we talked . abby : hey . you were attracted to kyle for a reason . not just his looks and his superficial charm . it was a vibe you got from him , yes ? lola : mm - hmm . abby : give him the chance to show you that your instincts were right . come here . mariah : so you 're really not gon na reach out to lola ? kyle : after you convinced me that , whatever i say , i 'll make a boneheaded mess of things ? mariah : [ scoffs ] okay . i 'm sorry about giving you a hard time . it 's just , you 're a very easy target . kyle : thanks ? [ sighs ] mariah : look , if you really want to know what 's going on in lola 's head , there 's only one person you should be talking to , and it 's not me . maybe she just wants to get to know you a little bit better before jumping into bed with you . is that so wrong ? i 'll bring your drinks and a list of tonight 's specials . rey : thank you . mia : miami has some fabulous restaurants , but ... wow , you know ? [ gasps , exclaims ] rey : there 's quite a steak selection . mia : ooh , let me see . oh , god . these prices , babe . can we even afford this ? rey : no , it 's okay . it 's okay . do n't worry about that . just keep your eyes on the left side of the page . mia : i think i 'll wait for the specials . rey : order whatever you like . mia : far cry from double pepperoni . what made you change your mind ? rey : about this place ? um ... i heard someone mention it , thought you might want to try it . mia : but even when we were good , we never went out this fancy . rey : maybe i 'm ... sending myself a message . that if we want to make things better between us , it 's time to start putting in the work . abby : damn it ! arturo : hey . hey , what 's going on ? abby : why do i even try ? seriously , it 's like shouting into a wind tunnel . arturo : baby , slow down . what happened ? did n't it go well with nick ? abby : well , i made a strong case why we should buy the property -- pick it up for a song , finish what the other developer started , lead the way in a hot new area . arturo : what 'd he say ? abby : are you kidding me ? he barely even listened to me . he let me talk for like five minutes , and then he started listing reasons why he 's not interested in pursuing it . arturo : like what ? abby : like he has this huge global vision , and i 'm thinking too small . i 'm chasing after pennies . i showed him all of the projections , and he got annoyed with me . he said dark horse is only interested in investing in things that are gon na be a big win . `` big win `` meaning millions of dollars . he made me feel small and stupid . arturo : hey , baby -- abby : no ! i am upset right now , and it 's okay for me to be upset . it 's better than me shoving down all the negativity for the sake of the team . someone else 's team ! well , you know what ? screw the team ! you know what this reminds me of ? [ chuckles angrily ] arturo : no . abby : oh ! when i was working at newman , and my dad , he would pat me on the head , and he would say , `` you know what , you 're on the wrong track again . but , you know , keep on going , keep on chugging . you 'll get it right someday . `` meanwhile , he offers summer a job in dubai . he gives summer the opportunity of a lifetime to prove herself , someone that 's so green and immature . and you know what ? i am done . i am so done ! arturo : i ca n't say i blame you . abby : right ? arturo : see , here 's the thing , though -- you do n't need nick 's permission or your dad 's to bring your own ideas to life . you have resources . connections . confidence in your own ability . your worth does not depend on someone else 's permission or validation , babe . abby : okay , what 's your point ? arturo : i guess i 'm telling you to just prove them wrong . ana : hamilton - winters has been expanding a lot . devon : yes , it has . it sure has . and it 's gon na be even better having you there , i 'll tell you , 'cause it 's been a little -- a little lonely in the office with neil gone , you know ? ana : enough business . how are you ? we 've probably talked a dozen times since hilary died , but ... devon : yeah . ana : sometimes it 's hard to tell what 's really going on from a phone call . devon : i know . i 'm doing all right . but , uh ... i mean , to be honest , it 's -- it 's a little tough here and there , and i do n't always handle things the best , but ... life goes on , you know ? ana : let 's hope me being here can help with that . devon : oh , i 'm -- i think it will . [ chuckles ] [ both laugh ] cane : having ana here has really lifted his spirits . nate : yeah , that 's the plan . let 's hope it lasts . cane : well ... rey : should be all set . mm - hmm . mia : mm - hmm . mmm ! every bite ... rey : mm - hmm . mia : ... every moment of this evening has been heaven , from start to finish . rey : mm . i 'm glad you enjoyed it . we 're trying , right ? one step at a time . mia : every step we take , we take together . rey : i 'm glad we 're finally on the same page .

[ sighs ] here you are , mrs . newman . mia : excuse me ? sharon newman , right ? that 's the name on the gift card . mia : of course . yes . just need to sign . tip 's included . mia : oh , okay . [ scribbling ] thank you . of course . rey : everything okay ? mia : everything 's perfect . um ... now , come on . help me finish this dessert . rey : uh - huh . [ mia chuckles ] sharon : hey . i did n't know that you would be here . mariah : hi . yeah , i , uh , came for a quick bite after we finished taping . i also thought i 'd stick around , see how the rey situation went . sharon : oh , it -- it was fine . it was no problem . mariah : really ? sharon : yeah . i meant what i said before -- i want rey and mia to work things out . mariah : okay . sharon : um , i have to get something from the back office . i 'll be right back . [ cellphone chimes ] mia : let 's get upstairs . rey : okay . mia : okay . abby : you really think i should just go for it ? buy the property , do the deal on my own ? arturo : see , you keep thinking of guys like victor and nick as gatekeepers . throw that out . if someone tells you no , do n't stop . you play it like they would . find a way around them . treat them like any other obstacle . abby : you really think i can do this on my own ? arturo : i 'm not saying it 's gon na be easy , but if you want it bad enough -- abby : no , i do . heh ... i really do . i can feel it in my bones . this is an incredible opportunity . arturo : well , then , what 's stopping you ? abby : nothing . i mean , i wish more people believed in me , but ... [ chuckles ] arturo : but what ? abby : i got you for that . and that is enough . mia : [ sighs ] what a great night . our best in ... i do n't know how long . rey : it was .

[ scene_break ] elizabeth : um , are you going down to the ballroom ? man : yeah . elizabeth : could you do me a favor ? man : anything for a pretty lady . elizabeth : could you take these flashlights ? man : sure , no problem . elizabeth : great . thank you . man : sure .

[ thunder ] sonny : there 's no -- you know , there 's no use in worrying after the fact . as a matter of fact , you 're the one who made me realize that trevor was setting me up . because i started thinking to myself , there 's no reason why trevor would talk business in front of you . and the way he warned me that the zaccharas were in contact with my business partners -- and then -- and then when you said that he gets off on playing mind games -- kate : i do n't -- why does trevor have to do with any of this ? sonny : he wanted me to go to puerto rico -- without my guards , without my security . he 's the one who tried to have me killed .

[ scene_break ] patrick : i have no idea what the device did or what effect it had on jake 's behavior , but i was able to remove it and patch him up . sam : good . i mean , that 's all jake wanted was to be free of helena 's control . carly : he was fighting her the whole time , and he did n't even know he was doing it . i mean , trying to make sense of those memory flashes ? jake was literally terrified of himself , of what he might do , what he might have done , and -- and he had no control over it . and i turned him in to the cops . sam : well , i mean , i think it 's a good thing you did because maybe he would never have confronted this . we would 've never known that there was a bomb on the boat . carly : i know . i know . i know you 're right . i just -- i just ca n't ... i hate the fact that he was arrested , and -- and that someone 's going to hold him responsible . and most of all , i hate that jake might hold himself responsible . sam : yeah . look , i know . i put a lot of energy into hating him , too , but , really , that guy is just ... i mean , he 's a lost soul . patrick : might not be so lost , actually . according to elizabeth . [ scene_break ] elizabeth : what a relief to hear helena will soon be out of port charles . helena : oh , i assure you , i never remain in this dreary place longer than necessary . elizabeth : and it was necessary to be here to torture jake , to force him to do your bidding ? nikolas : elizabeth , i hope you know how sorry i am for all of this . and i know it wo n't make up for what jake has suffered , but i 'd like to cover his medical expenses . elizabeth : you do n't have to do that . nikolas : i insist . my family has put that man through hell . and from what i understand , he does n't have access to insurance because he does n't know who he is . elizabeth : that might not be the case anymore .

[ slaps counter ] you 're a smarmy son of a bitch .

[ scene_break ] lulu : you helped johnny get away ? maxie : do n't you look at me like that . okay , you 've got more history with johnny than i do . you would 've done the same thing . lulu : no . uh ... okay , fine . i have no room to judge . maxie : thank you . just be happy that johnny came to my house and not yours . lulu : was nathan furious ? maxie : i 've never seen him like that , except maybe with levi . lulu : i assume nathan agreed to cover for you ? maxie : yeah , he did . but he reminded me not only had i broken the law , but i 'd probably broken his heart . and to make matters worse , spinelli obviously had georgie with him , who 's a baby and has to sleep sometime , so ... spinelli and i started talking , alone , and i feel like a total idiot , because i told spinelli the entire story , with an emphasis on the part that i 'm afraid nathan might not ever be able to trust me again , which led spinelli to believe that he 's probably got a chance with me ... lulu : so , wait . does he ? [ scene_break ] tracy : luke ? luke : how many times do i have to tell you to back off before you get the hint ? tracy : there it is , right in front of me . luke : yeah , what 's in front of you is me telling you to go away ! tracy : i 'm not going anywhere . i 'm not afraid of you . you 're a sick man . i 'm gon na do everything in my power to help you recover . luke : do n't you get it ? are you stupid ? i do n't want you in my life ! i would 've thought you would 've gotten the message when i arranged to blow the boat up that you were on ! tracy : sorry . i 'm not afraid of you anymore . i know that this is n't you talking . luke : oh , this is me . and i 'm not giving you any answers . tracy : i do n't need any answers from you . i 'm gon na get them from your sister . luke : like barbara jean knows anything . tracy : who said anything about barbara jean ?

[ scene_break ] sam : jake told elizabeth who he really was ? patrick : no , he did n't get that far . he said he remembered , but then the anesthesia kicked in , and he was out . carly : so when he wakes up , he 'll be able to tell us who he is ? sam : and why helena was so interested in him to begin with . [ scene_break ] helena : i am impressed . i mean , i may find elizabeth grating and insipid , and i know you 've always had a weakness for her , and yet you 've chosen family . no , you did n't tell her what you knew about jason . nikolas : only because it does n't matter . you heard elizabeth . as soon as jake wakes up , it 'll all be over . he 'll tell everyone who he really is .

[ scene_break ] nathan : excuse me ? spinelli : well , i hope i 'm not speaking out of turn , but ... maximista confided that you and she had disagreed about a , um ... a certain mob prince . nathan : wait . she told you what she did ? why would she involve you in all of this ? spinelli : no , no , no , no . not to worry . i 'm the very soul of discretion . and , you know , maxie knew i 'd understand . you see , for maxie and me , things are n't black and white . you know , we accept that , in life , there are mitigating circumstances , rich , bright shades of gray . people that might live outside the law but are admirable , nonetheless . our values are more in line . kind of like a real couple . nathan : except that you and maxie are n't a real couple . spinelli : well , i just may have something to say about that .

[ doorbell rings ] alyssa : i want to see adam . chelsea : oh , you know , i 'm afraid he 's not here right now . alyssa : where is he ? and why is he letting his father get away with murder ? adam : excuse me . can i buy you a drink ? might be fun to toast to the new boss . additional sponsorship sharon : i hate being in limbo . rey : i know . sharon : all i do is wait . you know , if they could just tell me something , anything . rey : it 's just a few more minutes , babe . sharon : yeah . and then i 'll have to wait some more for something else . the waiting is making feel like i 'm going crazy . rey : you 're not . sharon : if they could just tell me , you know , what i 'm up against , you know , what comes next and when . rey : and give you control of your life again . sharon : yeah . you know , if i need to have a mastectomy , i need to know now . all they have to do is open a file and click on a button and read me the results . sharon : oh , yes . hi . i 'm here . um ... okay , i know that this is n't how things are normally done , but i - i do n't need to hear the news in person . in fact , i - i 'm much more comfortable hearing it while i 'm here , surrounded by people who i care about in -- in a familiar place . so , my support team is here , and we are ready for what 's next , so , please , you 've got to tell me -- what 's gon na happen ? adam : not in the mood to buy the boss a drink ? okay , well , the drinks are on me then . victoria : you 're not my boss , and you never will be . adam : yeah . just like i thought i 'd never be ceo of newman again . but i kept that dream alive , and here i am . and let that be a lesson to you -- never say never . and if there should come a time when you change your mind and you want to come back and you want to work for me , i 'd love to talk to you about that . victoria : could i get my check , please ? adam : really , i wish that you had stayed on . i 'm sure that i could have found another position that 's more suitable for your ... skill set . victoria : i really do n't want to be there when you tank the company . adam : mm . well , that 's not going to happen . i 'm gon na lead newman to record profits . victoria : well , good . then you better get to work because i 've already cleaned out my desk . adam : mm . that 's good because i intend to obliterate everything you did at newman . once i 'm really comfortable , it 'll be like you never existed . victoria : i shudder to think what 's gon na happen to the company now that there 's somebody devoid of ethics in charge . adam : listen , victoria . i know that you are disappointed , but sooner or later you 're just gon na have to admit that i 've always been dad 's true heir apparent . chelsea : adam had to step out for a bit , but ... this is a surprise . we thought you were back home in kansas . alyssa : oh , i 'm sure . that would 've made things more convenient . chelsea : yeah , he 's been really busy . alyssa : where ? doing what ? chelsea : uh , i 'm not really sure -- alyssa : 'cause i 'd like to know what could take precedence over learning his father 's a murderer . chelsea : what would you have had him do ? alyssa : he promised to publish my exposé , and i want to know why that has n't happened . chelsea : gee , you know , i do n't really know all the details , but i 'm sure adam 's on top of it . alyssa : he said all he needed to do was give it to the editor of that website he owns a stake in . chelsea : alyssa , i 'm sre you understand how difficult this is , breaking a story like this . i mean , when you 're going after a man as wealthy and powerful and legendary as victor newman , you really need to make sure this story is bulletproof . you really need to fact - check every single detail . alyssa : i stand behind every word i wrote , every bit of evidence i 've collected . chelsea : no , of course ! of course you do , yes , as you should . but it still needs to be run through a neutral party . so we 're operating out of an abundance of caution , so ... that 's it . alyssa : [ chuckles ] chelsea : okay ? abby : okay , so , we -- we are , uh -- we are both intelligent people with jobs to do , and i think if we sat down and discussed what the issues are and how to fix them , we could be back to work in an hour . what do you say ? you 're missing some work permits . they 're code violations . abby : no , no , no . see , that is impossible because my lawyer and my contractors -- they assured me that everything was in order . good luck . abby : you really think you can derail my plans ? phyllis : excuse me ? abby : it 's not gon na happen , phyllis . i 'm gon na build my hotel , whether you like it or not . it 's totally normal adam : i mean , think of it like this . nick has refused to be a part of newman over and over again . abby ... [ chuckling ] well , i mean , let 's be honest . it 's abby . but good for her , you know ? she 's got the restaurant and the hotel . and then there 's you . and i know that you believe you 're dad 's rightful heir . victoria : `` victor - ia . `` adam : yes , but i am the true `` victor . `` see what i did there ? victoria : you chose to call yourself adam . you insulted our father and his legacy . adam : and you think i 'm not worthy ? victoria : unstable , unreliable , treacherous , all of the above . adam : you know , i am more like our father than any of you . victoria : you know no one believes you except for you . adam : it really touched me , the way you stood by our father . despite all the evidence against him , you will stay loyal to him no matter how many times you go down . he 's very lucky to have your blind devotion . victoria : well , as usual , you 've misjudged me . but do n't worry . i 'm never going down again .

[ gasps ] my babies ! tessa : we 're here . sharon : ooh ! mariah : for whatever you need . faith : we love you so much . sharon : i love you . phyllis : oh , i 'd forgotten how quiet it is here without all that noisy construction going on across the street . abby : because you made a bogus report to the city . phyllis : that 's only temporary . abby : you 're not even denying this . phyllis : well , no . abby , i 'm trying to help you , not hurt you . abby : okay , how is stopping the construction of my hotel being helpful ? phyllis : well , it seems like some of your workers were trying to cut corners . yeah . i mean , you want this done right . i mean , you want your hotel built to last , right ? abby : whereas you do n't want it to be built at all . phyllis : well , it does n't matter what i want . it 's out of my control . um , here 's a piece of advice . abby : oh , i do n't want it , and i do n't need it . phyllis : make sure that all your permits are in order . i mean , this whole stop - work order -- i mean , this is temporary . it could take months . but the last thing you want is to be caught in a lengthy court battle . abby : you really are amazing . phyllis : thank you . i 'm gon na be the best thing that happened to that hotel of yours , okay ? and take it from me -- get all your permits in order . stay on top of your crew . the last thing you want is to get hit with another inspection . that could delay you for months . you 're welcome . billy : you 're going to want to get in on this early because once it starts rolling , it 's not gon na stop and you 're gon na be wishing that you listened to me . uh ... something came up . let me -- let me call you back . everything okay ? victoria : not even close . what part of our last discussion made you feel like you could pull something like this ? i 'm leah and that 's me long before mariah : well , i knew you would get good news . faith : big time . it 's great . mariah : so , how long are you gon na be out of commission for ? sharon : um , about a week . tessa : oh , that 's not long at all . rey : well , just to be safe , maybe we should schedule coverage here for two . you come back strong . sharon : two weeks it is . nick : coffee has come a long way since i was co - owner of this place , but i can handle the business end of crimson lights . tessa : what if mariah and i are in charge of getting faith to and from school ? faith : yeah . tessa : i call morning shift . faith : double yes . no offense , but you do n't hit your stride till early afternoon . mariah : that 's fair . [ laughter ] rey : lola 's volunteered to cook . sharon : oh , i like the idea of that . mariah : well , in that case , if you want anybody to join you for a family dinner , we 're in . rey : and i will be the all - important cleanup hitter . just tell me where you want me , coach . faith : i 'm good to water plants , take out the trash , clean . of course , there is an expiration date on that offer as soon as you get back on your feet . sharon : [ chuckles ] alright . we 'll negotiate the terms of your release at a later time . faith : and as an added feature , i 'll even clear the dishes and yell at the dishwasher the same way you do when the soap thingie wo n't pop out the way it should . sharon : [ chuckles ] [ cellphones chime ] mariah : all right , guys , that is the sound of the new group chat i just started . so , when we have a date for surgery , team sharon will go into full effect . we have got nick on crimson lights , faith on housekeeping , tessa and me on faith duty , lola on food , and rey -- mr . everything . sharon : that 's what he is -- mr . everything . alyssa : do you know what it 's been like for me since my father died ? to live with all of these secrets ? a mother who refused to speak his name , people whispering when i went by ? chelsea : that must have been awful . please , um , have a seat . please . alyssa : this was a story i never wanted to write -- the god - awful truth about my father . but i did it . he was n't just a loan shark . he had sunk so much lower than that , and i 'd finally gotten everything out into the light and found proof that victor 's the reason that he died . and now i feel like adam is just trying to shove it back into the dark . why is he doing this to me ? chelsea : um , i - i know what it 's like to have a father like yours . alyssa : oh . was your dad murdered , or was he a killer ? chelsea : neither . but he had no problem breaking the law if it suited him . lied to me more times than i can count . alyssa : i 'm sorry . chelsea : i know it 's not the same thing , but we both have an unsavory family history , so can i give you a little bit of advice ? just focus on moving forward , you know ? find -- look , find new things that bring you joy , that -- that are positive . focus on your next big project . alyssa : so , i 'm just supposed to abandon all the work that i 've done , pretend nothing happened ? i 'm a journalist . it 's my job to seek the truth and report it , not shy away . chelsea : adam and i have a lot of contacts . when you find the next big thing , we 'd be glad to introduce you to some people , help you , you know , blaze your new path . and , listen , if you need any money or -- alyssa : wait . really ? you 'd bribe me ? you want to tell me what 's really going on here ? billy : i could recite our last conversation verbatim . you made a bunch of demands , and as far as i 'm concerned , i 've listened to every single one of them . we have n't seen much of each other , and besides a few co - parenting issues , we 've actually kept her distance . so why do n't you just go ahead and tell me what you think i 've done ? victoria : hannah called me . billy : and ? victoria : she told me that you 're too busy to take the kids today . billy : vick , it 's not like i do n't want to see the kids -- victoria : you ca n't just cancel last minute . this is not planet billy . people are counting on you to keep your word . billy : okay , look , i got my hands full here . that 's it . victoria : and you called hannah instead of me because ? billy : because i did n't want to bother you because i figured you 'd have a lot on your plate with going back to newman . victoria : [ sighs ] billy : vick , what 's going on ? something 's bothering you . what is it ? victoria : i suppose you 're gon na find out soon enough . billy : find out what ? victoria : i 'm out . billy : what do you mean ? out of what ? victoria : newman enterprises , the job that i have prepared for my entire life . billy : who is in ? victoria : adam ... effective immediately . adam : [ sighs ] [ sighs ] `` the young and the restless `` will continue . nick : mr. everything . rey : [ chuckles ] nick : how you holding up ? everything cool ? rey : the last thing sharon needs is to worry about me right now . nick : listen , bud , when this whole thing started , i told you , if you ever need to talk , let me know . rey : uh ... alright . it 's like this . sharon and i both put on these brave faces for each other . but i know she 's scared . hell , i am terrified , too . and , uh , we try to stay positive . we talk about the future , but the truth is we do n't have a clue what the future holds . nick : nobody does , man . rey : yeah , but this is different . the chemo did n't work out the way we were counting on it . nick : are you worried for sharon or for yourself ? rey : what -- what are you asking me , if i 'm thinking about leaving her ? nick : no . rey , no . i 'm just trying to get you to talk to me . rey : sharon is so much more than the sum of the parts . she 's , uh ... she 's goodness personified . she makes me want to be a better man . no , no , i am not going anywhere without her . we have too much to do , too many plans . i just ... i hate watching her go through something like this . nick : well , i 've seen the strength she gets from just one look from you . this is hard on everyone , alright ? i told you -- if you need anything , you just got ta send out a signal . kind of like the bat signal , but like a rey signal . rey : [ laughs ] nick : and i do n't know what that 's gon na look like , but if you figured out , i will come running . we 'll go play some pool , grab a beer , whatever you want . rey : you know , i know i was resistant at first when you asked , but , uh , i think i might actually take you up on that this time . nick : i look forward to that . now , i got to get out of here . there 's something i got ta do , and it 's best if sharon does n't know what it is . rey : ah , you up to something ? nick : just something that sharon does n't need to know about right now . rey : alright . billy : how the hell does adam end up in charge ? victoria : he lays low , and then he shows his true evil colors so he can get what he wants . billy : so , why does your father let him get away with it ? victoria : i do n't know . maybe he did n't have a choice . billy : oh , come on . there 's always a choice ... unless there 's something going on with those two that we do n't know about , which then begs the question -- what did adam do that your father would betray you like that ? victoria : it does n't matter . billy : yes , it does matter , vick . it matters a whole hell of a lot . that is your job , and you worked damn hard to get it . victoria : there 's nothing i can do . billy : of course there is . do n't let them get away with it , victoria : them ? billy : yes . adam and victor . do n't let them play with your life like that . it 's time they got what they deserve , especially your father . it 's time for revenge . victoria : billy -- billy : no , it 's time for payback -- and not the karmic kind . the kind that knocks him down a peg . it 's time he suffered the consequences of his actions . victoria : this is not your fight . it 's mine . i decide who gets caught in the cross hairs . i make the calls here , not you . billy : i really hope you do n't think i would try to bribe you . i would never do that . alyssa : really ? 'cause that 's sure what it sounded like . chelsea : no , you just -- you seem stressed , and you 're far from home . i just want to help you . alyssa : i do n't need your charity . and i was n't writing that story for money or fame . chelsea : why did you write it ? alyssa : because the truth is important to me . because when i became a reporter , i pledged to myself and the public that i would be truthful and ethical and accountable for what i wrote . i wrote that story at a great emotional cost , possibly even putting a target on my back for calling one of the country 's biggest moguls a murderer . adam : alyssa . this is a surprise . everything alright ? alyssa : no . as a matter of fact , far from it . adam : well , we 're all friends here . i 'm sure whatever it is , we can get to the bottom of it . right , chelsea ? chelsea : yeah . it 's actually my fault . [ chuckles ] it 's embarrassing , but it 's my fault . i was telling alyssa that we 'd love to help her out , you know , introduce her to some friends that can help her spread her wings ... adam : mm . chelsea : ... at least until the piece is published or she decides there 's something else she wants to do . adam : and -- and you thought chelsea was -- chelsea : [ chuckles ] it 's embarrassing . adam : no , never , never , nothing like that . alyssa . chelsea : no . no . it was just my -- my clumsy attempt at networking . i thought i would give her options while the piece is being vetted . adam : ah . of course . alyssa : i worked like a dog on that article . i went without sleep . i spent hours tracking down all the players . adam : you did a phenomenal job . alyssa : you told me it was a done deal and that you 'd take care of everything . now i feel like you 're trying to kill it before it hits press . why ? chelsea : i told alyssa about the fact - checking that has to be done , you know , and that it takes more time because victor 's men are gon na want to pull it apart word by word . alyssa : [ scoffs ] no . i know when i 'm getting the runaround . i want the truth . phyllis : hey , abby . you know , i want to talk about your plans for that monolithic monstrosity you 're trying to build across the street . abby : [ laughs ] you 're giving me design advice now ? phyllis : yeah . i mean , are you sure you want to build a hotel for the living ? because from what i 've seen , your hotel has all the charm of -- i do n't know -- a haunted mansion . abby : you 've seen my plans ? phyllis : of course . i need to know what the competition is doing . do n't you want to build a hotel that -- i do n't know -- sparks joy instead of abject terror ? and i see you have your plans in your hand . let 's take a look . abby : like i would ever take your advice . phyllis : oh , nick . hi . nick : hey . phyllis : nick could be a tie - breaker . nick : no , i 'm not breaking anything between you two . abby : well , after everything this woman 's put you through , would n't you immediately side with your sister over your ex ? no . no , no , no , no , no , no . please , please do n't tell me that you guys are back together . billy : you know we 're on the same page , do n't you ? victoria : i know . you 're against my father and adam . that 's hardly a surprise , and it 's definitely not the point . billy : then enlighten me . victoria : i just -- i do n't need your opinion , and i do n't need your righteous indignation . i want you out of my life . i can do this on my own . billy : okay . i hear you loud and clear . victoria : good . good ! billy : okay . it 's just gon na take me a minute because i 'm used to fighting side by side with you . victoria : well , then you need to break that habit , and you need to do it now . billy : vick , i did n't mean to offend you -- victoria : you know , it 's because of you that i realized i do n't need to rely on anyone but myself . i can fight this battle . and i can win it on my own . billy : [ sighs ] adam : alyssa , will you please have a seat ? alyssa : [ sighs ] adam : look ... you have nothing to worry about . alyssa : how is that possible ? are you destroying the nondisclosure agreement , returning all the evidence i handed over to you ? you promised me . adam : [ sighs ] you 're right . i did . i gave you my word . and i should just tell you now that i do n't have any intention of keeping it . alyssa : because you 're protecting victor ? adam : no . i am protecting you from yourself . and , yes , i promised you that i would publish the article online , but i ca n't do it . chelsea : adam -- alyssa : why not ? adam : because your piece -- it -- it deserves more . it deserves a bigger platform , a wider audience . that piece -- it belongs at a major national magazine . alyssa : i - i mean , i never dreamed that it could even ... adam : that 's why you got me , right ? to think big . that 's actually where i was this morning . i was meeting with some connections , chasing down a few contacts . alyssa : well , why did n't you just tell me ? adam : [ chuckles ] i did n't want to jinx it . alyssa : i mean [ chuckles ] a byline in a well - known magazine would be ... wow . but no more secrets . i want to be kept in the loop . adam : you -- you have my word . it 's gon na get everything that it deserves , okay ? so , i promise that we will talk very soon . alyssa : thanks . adam : of course . [ sighs heavily ] you were incredible . chelsea : how much of what you said was true ? adam : [ sighs ] chelsea : oh , she 's never gon na let this go . you know that , do n't you ? tessa : you know , not to brag or anything , but i did become somewhat of a goddess with that cranky cappuccino maker when i was a barista here . mariah : [ chuckles ] sharon : well , it was n't all smooth sailing , was it ? and i do n't just mean with the coffee . tessa : true . but you surround yourself with good people and good things start to happen and it changes you forever . sharon : we 've both come a long way . faith : do you mind if i steal mom for a minute ? i 'm gon na have a fresh - from- the - oven cookie with your name on it . sharon : only if we share it . faith : i thought you 'd never ask . mariah : you are so amazing . tessa : mm . mariah : when i think about how close i came to losing you -- tessa : no . the only thing that matters is now . mariah : yeah , that 's exactly what i 'm scared of -- the now . you know , my mom is getting surgery , and she 's bouncing around like everything is fine , but i know inside she 's got to be terrified . and i 'm just not very good at that . tessa : you seem to be managing very well . mariah : on the outside . but on the inside , i 'm thinking about every dark outcome . tessa : i can tell you one thing about every possible scenario you can dream up . mariah : oh , really ? tessa : mm - hmm . mariah : you can tell the future ? tessa : yeah . i will be there through every single one of them . fast - forward to the end , there 's tessa . freeze - frame in the middle , tessa . rewind for every good part -- mariah : ah . tessa ? tessa : mm - hmm . see ? you 're getting it -- 'cause that 's the one thing you can always count on . i will always be here , and i 'm always yours . mariah : that is literally the nicest thing that anybody 's ever said to me . tessa : well , here 's something nicer . why -- why do n't we just make it -- tessa : but i did n't finish my thought . mariah : yeah , exactly . look , i ca n't -- i ca n't wrap my head around anything else right now , but once we are on the other side of this , when sharon is feeling better and we are feeling grounded , i want to talk about it . i want to hear every detail . i promise . tessa : well , you will 'cause i 'm gon na sweep you off your feet . mariah : [ chuckles ] you already have . you know that . tessa : hmm . faith : okay . i , uh , could definitely finish these off myself , but i promised i 'd share . mariah : aww . tessa : oh , yeah , share the love , girl . mariah : absolutely . faith : okay . cookie toast . make a wish . alright . [ laughs ] mariah : mmm . rey : what 's going on behind those pretty eyes of yours ? sharon : i do n't think i 've ever been more terrified or overwhelmed in my entire life , but i look around and i see a lot of good things happening . life goes on . rey : every day we are on this earth , every minute we get to spend together is a gift . sharon : we ca n't take one second for granted . rey : mnh - mnh . that is why i 'm going to take more time off work after your surgery . lola makes this great cuban chicken soup that 's gon na make you stronger . then we 're gon na take a long drive . we 're gon na go up to the lake , spend the day on a boat -- mm - hmm -- and look up at the stars . we are gon na do this , and there 's nothing you can do to stop me . do n't even try to fight me . sharon : no , i 'm gon na save my fight for one thing and one thing only . abby : since neither of you are saying anything or denying it , i 'm guessing that i 'm right . you 're really giving this another go ? phyllis : i know you want to protect your brother , and it 's lovely , abby , but ... abby : okay , phyllis , stop talking . there 's nothing you can say that 's gon na change my mind or your future . wow , nick , i know this story by heart . i thought you did , too . nick : i 'd like to think i 'm past the point where i have to justify any of my actions . abby : well , i would love to stay and talk some sense into you , but i have to go deal with the repercussions of your zany girlfriend 's latest tour de force . nick : what happened ? abby : sabotage , but nothing i ca n't handle . hope i can say the same for you , nick . nick : sabotage ? phyllis : oh , `` sabotage . `` she 'd being dramatic . she wants your sympathy . nick : she seemed pretty upset . phyllis : it 's business . of course she is . you 're not successful if you do n't have a rival . you did n't come here to talk about abby , did you ? nick : no , i didn't . phyllis : i think i know why you came here . you want to go to somewhere private ? adam : well , i had no idea what i was walking into when i came home . should have known that you were handling it . chelsea : [ exhales heavily ] barely . adam : you were perfect . you said all the right things to keep alyssa in line . chelsea : oof . i just ca n't shake this feeling i 've done something wrong . adam : well , you followed your instincts . chelsea : i was able to press the pause button , but i was n't able to stop her , adam . this article of hers -- it 's her baby . adam : i know . chelsea : she 's gon na keep asking questions and pushing for its publication . she 's not gon na stop digging until she finds the truth . adam : i know .

to live with all of these secrets ? a mother who refused to speak his name , people whispering when i went by ? chelsea : that must have been awful . please , um , have a seat . please . alyssa : this was a story i never wanted to write -- the god - awful truth about my father . but i did it . he was n't just a loan shark . he had sunk so much lower than that , and i 'd finally gotten everything out into the light and found proof that victor 's the reason that he died . and now i feel like adam is just trying to shove it back into the dark . why is he doing this to me ? chelsea : um , i - i know what it 's like to have a father like yours . alyssa : oh . was your dad murdered , or was he a killer ? chelsea : neither . but he had no problem breaking the law if it suited him . lied to me more times than i can count . alyssa : i 'm sorry . chelsea : i know it 's not the same thing , but we both have an unsavory family history , so can i give you a little bit of advice ? just focus on moving forward , you know ? find -- look , find new things that bring you joy , that -- that are positive . focus on your next big project . alyssa : so , i 'm just supposed to abandon all the work that i 've done , pretend nothing happened ? i 'm a journalist . it 's my job to seek the truth and report it , not shy away . chelsea : adam and i have a lot of contacts . when you find the next big thing , we 'd be glad to introduce you to some people , help you , you know , blaze your new path . and , listen , if you need any money or -- alyssa : wait . really ? you 'd bribe me ? you want to tell me what 's really going on here ? billy : i could recite our last conversation verbatim . you made a bunch of demands , and as far as i 'm concerned , i 've listened to every single one of them . we have n't seen much of each other , and besides a few co - parenting issues , we 've actually kept her distance . so why do n't you just go ahead and tell me what you think i 've done ? victoria : hannah called me . billy : and ? victoria : she told me that you 're too busy to take the kids today . billy : vick , it 's not like i do n't want to see the kids -- victoria : you ca n't just cancel last minute . this is not planet billy . people are counting on you to keep your word . billy : okay , look , i got my hands full here . that 's it . victoria : and you called hannah instead of me because ? billy : because i did n't want to bother you because i figured you 'd have a lot on your plate with going back to newman . victoria : [ sighs ] billy : vick , what 's going on ? something 's bothering you . what is it ? victoria : i suppose you 're gon na find out soon enough . billy : find out what ? victoria : i 'm out . billy : what do you mean ? out of what ? victoria : newman enterprises , the job that i have prepared for my entire life . billy : who is in ? victoria : adam ... effective immediately . adam : [ sighs ] [ sighs ] `` the young and the restless `` will continue . nick : mr. everything . rey : [ chuckles ] nick : how you holding up ? everything cool ? rey : the last thing sharon needs is to worry about me right now . nick : listen , bud , when this whole thing started , i told you , if you ever need to talk , let me know . rey : uh ... alright . it 's like this . sharon and i both put on these brave faces for each other . but i know she 's scared . hell , i am terrified , too . and , uh , we try to stay positive . we talk about the future , but the truth is we do n't have a clue what the future holds . nick : nobody does , man . rey : yeah , but this is different . the chemo did n't work out the way we were counting on it . nick : are you worried for sharon or for yourself ? rey : what -- what are you asking me , if i 'm thinking about leaving her ? nick : no . rey , no . i 'm just trying to get you to talk to me . rey : sharon is so much more than the sum of the parts . she 's , uh ... she 's goodness personified . she makes me want to be a better man . no , no , i am not going anywhere without her . we have too much to do , too many plans . i just ... i hate watching her go through something like this . nick : well , i 've seen the strength she gets from just one look from you . this is hard on everyone , alright ? i told you -- if you need anything , you just got ta send out a signal . kind of like the bat signal , but like a rey signal . rey : [ laughs ] nick : and i do n't know what that 's gon na look like , but if you figured out , i will come running . we 'll go play some pool , grab a beer , whatever you want . rey : you know , i know i was resistant at first when you asked , but , uh , i think i might actually take you up on that this time . nick : i look forward to that . now , i got to get out of here . there 's something i got ta do , and it 's best if sharon does n't know what it is . rey : ah , you up to something ? nick : just something that sharon does n't need to know about right now . rey : alright . billy : how the hell does adam end up in charge ? victoria : he lays low , and then he shows his true evil colors so he can get what he wants . billy : so , why does your father let him get away with it ? victoria : i do n't know . maybe he did n't have a choice . billy : oh , come on . there 's always a choice ... unless there 's something going on with those two that we do n't know about , which then begs the question -- what did adam do that your father would betray you like that ? victoria : it does n't matter . billy : yes , it does matter , vick . it matters a whole hell of a lot . that is your job , and you worked damn hard to get it . victoria : there 's nothing i can do . billy : of course there is . do n't let them get away with it , victoria : them ? billy : yes . adam and victor . do n't let them play with your life like that . it 's time they got what they deserve , especially your father . it 's time for revenge . victoria : billy -- billy : no , it 's time for payback -- and not the karmic kind . the kind that knocks him down a peg . it 's time he suffered the consequences of his actions . victoria : this is not your fight . it 's mine . i decide who gets caught in the cross hairs . i make the calls here , not you . billy : i really hope you do n't think i would try to bribe you . i would never do that . alyssa : really ? 'cause that 's sure what it sounded like . chelsea : no , you just -- you seem stressed , and you 're far from home . i just want to help you . alyssa : i do n't need your charity . and i was n't writing that story for money or fame . chelsea : why did you write it ? alyssa : because the truth is important to me . because when i became a reporter , i pledged to myself and the public that i would be truthful and ethical and accountable for what i wrote . i wrote that story at a great emotional cost , possibly even putting a target on my back for calling one of the country 's biggest moguls a murderer . adam : alyssa . this is a surprise . everything alright ? alyssa : no . as a matter of fact , far from it . adam : well , we 're all friends here . i 'm sure whatever it is , we can get to the bottom of it . right , chelsea ? chelsea : yeah . it 's actually my fault . [ chuckles ] it 's embarrassing , but it 's my fault . i was telling alyssa that we 'd love to help her out , you know , introduce her to some friends that can help her spread her wings ... adam : mm . chelsea : ... at least until the piece is published or she decides there 's something else she wants to do . adam : and -- and you thought chelsea was -- chelsea : [ chuckles ] it 's embarrassing . adam : no , never , never , nothing like that . alyssa . chelsea : no . no . it was just my -- my clumsy attempt at networking . i thought i would give her options while the piece is being vetted . adam : ah . of course . alyssa : i worked like a dog on that article . i went without sleep . i spent hours tracking down all the players . adam : you did a phenomenal job . alyssa : you told me it was a done deal and that you 'd take care of everything . now i feel like you 're trying to kill it before it hits press . why ? chelsea : i told alyssa about the fact - checking that has to be done , you know , and that it takes more time because victor 's men are gon na want to pull it apart word by word . alyssa : [ scoffs ] no . i know when i 'm getting the runaround . i want the truth . phyllis : hey , abby . you know , i want to talk about your plans for that monolithic monstrosity you 're trying to build across the street . abby : [ laughs ] you 're giving me design advice now ? phyllis : yeah . i mean , are you sure you want to build a hotel for the living ? because from what i 've seen , your hotel has all the charm of -- i do n't know -- a haunted mansion . abby : you 've seen my plans ? phyllis : of course . i need to know what the competition is doing . do n't you want to build a hotel that -- i do n't know -- sparks joy instead of abject terror ? and i see you have your plans in your hand . let 's take a look . abby : like i would ever take your advice . phyllis : oh , nick . hi . nick : hey . phyllis : nick could be a tie - breaker . nick : no , i 'm not breaking anything between you two . abby : well , after everything this woman 's put you through , would n't you immediately side with your sister over your ex ? no . no , no , no , no , no , no . please , please do n't tell me that you guys are back together . billy : you know we 're on the same page , do n't you ? victoria : i know . you 're against my father and adam . that 's hardly a surprise , and it 's definitely not the point . billy : then enlighten me . victoria : i just -- i do n't need your opinion , and i do n't need your righteous indignation . i want you out of my life . i can do this on my own . billy : okay . i hear you loud and clear . victoria : good . good ! billy : okay . it 's just gon na take me a minute because i 'm used to fighting side by side with you . victoria : well , then you need to break that habit , and you need to do it now . billy : vick , i did n't mean to offend you -- victoria : you know , it 's because of you that i realized i do n't need to rely on anyone but myself . i can fight this battle . and i can win it on my own . billy : [ sighs ] adam : alyssa , will you please have a seat ? alyssa : [ sighs ] adam : look ... you have nothing to worry about . alyssa : how is that possible ? are you destroying the nondisclosure agreement , returning all the evidence i handed over to you ? you promised me . adam : [ sighs ] you 're right . i did . i gave you my word . and i should just tell you now that i do n't have any intention of keeping it . alyssa : because you 're protecting victor ? adam : no . i am protecting you from yourself . and , yes , i promised you that i would publish the article online , but i ca n't do it . chelsea : adam -- alyssa : why not ? adam : because your piece -- it -- it deserves more . it deserves a bigger platform , a wider audience . that piece -- it belongs at a major national magazine . alyssa : i - i mean , i never dreamed that it could even ... adam : that 's why you got me , right ? to think big . that 's actually where i was this morning . i was meeting with some connections , chasing down a few contacts . alyssa : well , why did n't you just tell me ? adam : [ chuckles ] i did n't want to jinx it . alyssa : i mean [ chuckles ] a byline in a well - known magazine would be ... wow . but no more secrets . i want to be kept in the loop . adam : you -- you have my word . it 's gon na get everything that it deserves , okay ? so , i promise that we will talk very soon . alyssa : thanks . adam : of course . [ sighs heavily ] you were incredible . chelsea : how much of what you said was true ? adam : [ sighs ] chelsea : oh , she 's never gon na let this go . you know that , do n't you ? tessa : you know , not to brag or anything , but i did become somewhat of a goddess with that cranky cappuccino maker when i was a barista here . mariah : [ chuckles ] sharon : well , it was n't all smooth sailing , was it ? and i do n't just mean with the coffee . tessa : true . but you surround yourself with good people and good things start to happen and it changes you forever . sharon : we 've both come a long way . faith : do you mind if i steal mom for a minute ? i 'm gon na have a fresh - from- the - oven cookie with your name on it . sharon : only if we share it . faith : i thought you 'd never ask . mariah : you are so amazing . tessa : mm . mariah : when i think about how close i came to losing you -- tessa : no . the only thing that matters is now . mariah : yeah , that 's exactly what i 'm scared of -- the now . you know , my mom is getting surgery , and she 's bouncing around like everything is fine , but i know inside she 's got to be terrified . and i 'm just not very good at that . tessa : you seem to be managing very well . mariah : on the outside . but on the inside , i 'm thinking about every dark outcome . tessa : i can tell you one thing about every possible scenario you can dream up . mariah : oh , really ? tessa : mm - hmm . mariah : you can tell the future ? tessa : yeah . i will be there through every single one of them . fast - forward to the end , there 's tessa . freeze - frame in the middle , tessa . rewind for every good part -- mariah : ah . tessa ? tessa : mm - hmm . see ? you 're getting it -- 'cause that 's the one thing you can always count on . i will always be here , and i 'm always yours . mariah : that is literally the nicest thing that anybody 's ever said to me . tessa : well , here 's something nicer . why -- why do n't we just make it -- tessa : but i did n't finish my thought . mariah : yeah , exactly . look , i ca n't -- i ca n't wrap my head around anything else right now , but once we are on the other side of this , when sharon is feeling better and we are feeling grounded , i want to talk about it . i want to hear every detail . i promise . tessa : well , you will 'cause i 'm gon na sweep you off your feet . mariah : [ chuckles ] you already have . you know that . tessa : hmm . faith : okay . i , uh , could definitely finish these off myself , but i promised i 'd share . mariah : aww . tessa : oh , yeah , share the love , girl . mariah : absolutely . faith : okay . cookie toast . make a wish . alright .

what 's wrong ? oh . i got you . chloe : what ? brady : i had a little run with daniel today . we were talking . chloe : `` talking `` ? brady : yeah , in generalities . so , how about you ? do you need someone to talk to ? e.j . : i 'll get it , mary . i 'm sure i know who it is . i already gave at the office . melanie : not enough . e.j . : you 're wasting my time . melanie : give me my money and i 'll be out of your hair . e.j . : you know , you really should have called before you came up here . melanie : e.j . , you can not blow me off like this . e.j . : melanie , you 're not getting another dime out of me . sami : shh . nicole : give me my baby now . nicole : give me my baby . sami : okay . okay , nicole . she fell asleep in my arms . just ... here you go . she 's beautiful . nicole : what in the hell did you think you were doing ? sami : i saw michelle holding her . i wanted to say hi to little sydney . she fell asleep in my arms . it 's no big deal . i know what i 'm doing . nicole : i know a lot about you . mostly you 're not to be trusted . sami : nicole , i would never hurt a baby . nicole : no , you would just ... sami : i would just what ? nicole : nothing . come on , sweetheart . mommy 's gon na get you home to your daddy . my girl , so sleepy . sami : you know what ? no . nicole : excuse me ? sami : i do n't think you should leave . i think it 's time you and i had a little talk . nicole : you 've got to be kidding me . get out of my way . sami : no . i mean , are n't you interested in why e.j . spent so much time with me last night ? i mean , i 'm sure you got a really good explanation as to -- what time did he come home again ? how late was he ? nicole : you do n't scare me . sami : i 'm not trying to . i just want to explain to you how important it is that the two of us talk . stefano : oh , katarina . ha ha . what a lovely coincidence . kate : yes . stefano : allow me to treat you to lunch . kate : oh , sorry . i already have a date . stefano : oh ? kate : or , should i say , an opening salvo . stefano : well ... do you mind if , uh , i sit with you till he shows up ? kate : she . well , i do n't know . are you going to keep an eye on your perspective daughter - in - law ? stefano : well , a little tête - à - tête with samantha brady . you do n't see that very often . kate : [ chuckles ] you know , you really should n't be spying . you ought to just bug the baby carriage . stefano : [ laughing ] you know , i really like the way you think , katarina . oh , my , my , my . what in the world do you think is going on over there ? sami : while e.j . was at my place last night , we , uh -- we just talked . nicole : i know that . what i do n't know is why you made it out to be something else . sami : to get you to stay . nicole : what ? sami : e.j . and i talked about the situation we are all in , but i realize now ... that there are two people who should be talking about it and that 's you and me . stefano : so -- thank you -- your , uh , luncheon companion , you do n't seem to be looking very much forward to seeing her . kate : it 's chloe . stefano : ah , chloe -- of the lifesaving marrow . uh - huh . kate : uh - huh . stefano : and your perspective daughter - in - law ? kate : the bug that needs to be squashed . stefano : whoa . well , that 's very interesting to hear that you 're not as beholden to her anymore , that , well , you know , it really did n't seem very kate - like . kate : you know , the way i see it , what happened was god had her spare my life so i can spare my son 's . stefano : ah . positive proof that there is a superior being . hmm - hmm . do you care to divulge to me what she has done that incurred your wrath ? kate : no . but i will tell you one thing -- she 's going to regret it for the rest of her life . melanie : you ca n't do this . e.j . : well , i can do this , and i did do this . melanie : we have a contract . e.j . : let me give you a little bit of advice for your future wheeling and dealing . it is always a good idea to spend as much time , if not more time , reading the contract than it is actually counting the cash advance . melanie : you ca n't do this . e.j . : well , according to the contract , i can , and you signed the contract three times . melanie : e.j . , i sold you the formula . e.j . : according to the deal that we had , everything becomes null and void if i do n't follow through with the project . now , i do n't know if i mentioned it to you , but i 'm not following through with the project . melanie : you are a son of a bitch . e.j . : have you kept a copy of that contract ? i suggest you go and look for it if you ca n't find it . because there 's a section in there that deals with the returning of the cash advance . melanie : i -- that 's gone . e.j . : well , then , you 're in a bit of a fix , are n't you ? melanie : are you enjoying this ? is this fun for you ? e.j . : miss layton , i told you that you were playing in the big leagues . i can assure you that , um , pouting is not a particularly effective negotiating technique . melanie : e.j . , this is not negotiating , okay ? this is you b.s.ing me . e.j . : oh , i 'm not talking about you and i. oh , no , no , no . you and i , we 're dead in the water . i 'm talking about you , when you go back to philip kiriakis . do you think he 's gon na mind very much that you stabbed him in the back ? melanie : why are you doing this to me ? e.j . : i 'm doing this because you are one of those unique individuals who rather learns through experience . and when this whole thing blows up in your face , you 're gon na start to grow up a little bit and realize that you 're not quite as smart as you think you are . melanie : god ! oh , no , no , no , no , e.j . , my friend . this is now how this is gon na end . e.j . : [ sighs ] kids today . stefano : i think i better be going . kate : oh , frustrated that you ca n't hear the conversation ? stefano : i might not be able to hear , but i certainly am going to find out what they are talking about . ciao . sami : her big brother is my son . you and e.j . and i -- we are all connected whether we like it or not . and we have to learn to respect each other and respect our privacy . nicole : was it respect for my privacy that had you holding my baby ? sami : nicole , get over it . i wanted to hold your beautiful little girl for a second . it 's not that big a deal . i mean , is that really all she means to you ? she 's just another tool in the `` i hate sami `` game ? nicole : no , that is not true . sami : good . because i was n't doing it to get at you . look , i have my own problems . and one of them affects you . nicole : how ? sami : i went to see my dad this morning , and i was going to talk to him about the guy who was protecting me while i was in the witness - protection program , and e.j . was already there . he was already butting into my life , trying to control who i see and what i do . nicole : i do n't believe it . sami : i think you do . otherwise , you would n't be sitting here talking to me right now . nicole , i do n't want e.j . in my life any more than you do . chloe : i 'm afraid i do n't know what you 're talking about . brady : neither do i most of the time . daniel : well , we should , uh -- we should do this again sometime when i 'm not so ... brady : [ chuckles ] daniel : um ... chloe . brady : you know , i hope i 'm not breaking a confidence here , but i got to tell you , that guy had one hell of a hangover this morning , chloe . chloe : did he ? brady : yeah , yeah , he did . something 's really eating at him . and i got to tell you , something seems to be eating at you , too . just not yourself right now . you 're a little jumpy , a little pale . chloe : you know what ? real fun bumping into you , brady . brady : i think i know what it is , though . it 's the wedding plans , right ? i mean , they got you crazy , right ? chloe : no . brady : not sure if you picked the right dress . you 're probably not sure if you picked the right ... guy . chloe : why are you doing this to me ? brady : because i want you to be happy , long - term happy . chloe : well , you have a real funny way of showing it . brady : you know what the great thing is about having an ex - husband who pretty much screwed up his life publicly ? you can tell him anything and he ca n't judge you . he wo n't judge you . all i 'll do is listen to you . chloe : that sounds really nice . brady : all right , then , let 's -- let 's go to lunch and talk about it , then . come on . chloe : i can't . i 'm supposed to be meeting someone and i 'm late already . i 'm sorry . brady : okay . chloe . it 's a standing invitation . you can call me anytime , okay ? chloe : thanks . philip : what we had , it 's still there . stephanie : you 're right . you 're absolutely right . philip : we can have it all back . stephanie : you 're right again . how could i have been so stupid ? let me just step out and get a quick lobotomy and then we 'll be good to go . philip : stephanie . stephanie : that 's what i 'll have to do , right , to forget everything you 've done ? be too stupid to see what you 're doing now ? that way , when you screw up again , you can just kiss me and i 'll be that pliable little nothing you want . philip : that 's not what i want . stephanie : then how else do you explain a girl being summoned into her boss ' office to get kissed and then goes , `` i like kissing him . nothing else matters `` ? philip : i think it 's more than that . we have a connection . stephanie : yes , you 're handsome . yes , you 're a great kisser , but i would be a total idiot to ever trust you again . philip : so there 's no more second chances ? i make one mistake . stephanie : `` a mistake `` ? philip : a huge mistake . yes , you saw the absolute worst part of me . but what about the part of me that wants to change ? stephanie : i did n't see that just now . what i saw was a guy who thinks he can get a woman to do whatever he wants by turning up the heat . i do n't want to be that girl , philip . philip : well , maybe that 's why i ca n't get you out of my head . you do n't think about me , what you want . but it 's you being you that wipes me out . stephanie , just pl -- tell me . look , steer me in the right direction . stephanie : philip ... melanie : i do n't care if he 's conferencing with donald trump , okay ? you are gon na conference with me right now . chloe : hey , kate . i 'm so sorry i 'm late . kate : oh , stop . i 'm just so glad that you made time for me . i know you must have so many other important things to do now that the wedding 's back on . chloe : uh , no . i 'm actually really glad that we 're doing this . i wanted to talk to you . kate : really ? why ? chloe : well , i was worried that you 're angry at me . kate : angry at you ? what about ? chloe : lucas drinking again . kate : chloe , come on . i told you -- chloe : i know that you said you were n't , but i was so mad at myself about it that i figured you must be , too . kate : darling , if i felt that way , i would tell you . i think that you and i have to be honest with each other about absolutely everything . do n't you agree ? chloe : sure . kate : i mean , if i 've learned anything over the years , it 's that honesty is the best way . i mean , what 's covered up , denied festers , and the fallout can be just devastating . chloe : yeah , well , it does n't ever seem to work out well in operas . kate : oh , good lord . listen to me . i 'm absolutely ruining a lovely lunch , and here we have a beautiful young bride - to - be . chloe : oh , speaking of that , i have something to show you . all right . take a look at this . kate : what is it ? chloe : it 's my wedding dress . nicole : so , e.j . went to talk to roman about the guy who was guarding you . sami : right . nicole : why ? sami : i do n't know . i guess because e.j . thought he was protecting me . i mean , he and rafe did n't exactly hit it off . nicole : so e.j . did n't come home to his daughter because he was protecting you from your ex - bodyguard . sami : yeah . nicole : [ laughs ] no , no , no . this had to be about johnny . obviously , he did n't want this guy being around him . sami : oh , 'cause that 's not hypocritical . when my son is staying at chez dimera , i do n't have a right to say who e.j . gets to shack up with . nicole : always a pleasure . sami : all right , nicole , fine . all right , it slipped out . old habits and whatnot . i meant what i said . we have to find a way to get along . nicole : meaning you want something from me . so spill . what is it ? sami : yes , nicole . i do want something from you , but , luckily , it 's something you want , too . nicole : yeah , right . sami : we both have a child with e.j . , but i 've been in this position longer than you have . i know more . nicole : there are significant differences , sami . he loves me . there 's no question of paternity . sami : okay , fine . but we do both have a child with e.j . , okay ? and maybe he was doing it to protect johnny this morning , but , you know , ultimately , it does n't matter why he was doing it . e.j . is a dimera , and he must think he still owns me somehow . and maybe he 's more involved than stefano . i mean , if it were stefano , he 'd probably tell e.j . to start a harem and then find more women to have sons with . nicole : what ? that is not true . sami : e.j . and i share a son , and i would n't trade johnny for anything in the world . but obviously you think things are gon na work out with your baby . you think it 's gon na be okay , and who knows ? you might be right . maybe it will . but i would n't do that again in a million years . nicole : you 're scared , are n't you ? really scared . melanie : do n't bad things happen to guys who hit on their interns in presidential offices ? philip : how the hell did you get in here ? melanie : that 's not what you need to be focusing on . you need to listen to what i have to tell you . philip : i will call security and have you thrown out , again . melanie : so you guys patched things up ? stephanie : do you want me to go , philip ? philip : no , no , she 's leaving now . melanie : listen , philip , you need to listen to me . i just found out that e.j . is not going forward with the project . now , this can be very good news for titan and , of course , also for myself . philip : good news for you that your corporate espionage blew up in your face ? melanie : i 'm really hoping that you will focus on the opportunity we now have . with e.j . out of the picture , we can forge ahead without any competition . philip : you know , i agree with that . melanie : you do ? philip : except with the pronoun . i can forge ahead , not we . melanie : nick gave me the project . if that project makes money , that money is mine . philip : not if titan decides to sue you for breach of contract or intellectual property theft . i have seven lawyers on this very floor . how many do you have ? melanie : you know what nick wanted . he wanted me to have his profits . philip : melanie , it 's over , done with . you lost . you have one last decision to make . do you want to walk , or do you want to be thrown out of the office ? sami : nicole , i 'm not scared . i just want my life back . and i do n't want e.j . involved in my life anymore , and i think you do n't want that , either . nicole : so you 're saying all i have to do is tell him to back off , you 're out of bounds , and he 'll buy it . sami : no , i told him that already this morning , and you 're right . i do n't think it had any effect on him . nicole : and you think coming from me it will . sami : well , yeah . nicole , just explain to him that he has to stop obsessing about me or johnny , if that 's how you want to look at it . otherwise , he could lose what he wants most . nicole : you want me to use my daughter as leverage to get you what you want . sami : you want it , too , nicole . look , i 'm trying to be nice here , okay ? i 'm trying to change how you and i do business . but i think it would be smart for you to remember that i do have some power in this situation . nicole : [ chuckles ] wow . if that 's a threat , i 'm not worried about you and e.j . sami : you would be if you knew . nicole : what ? if i knew what , sami ? chloe : you do n't like it . kate : no , it 's -- it 's fine . i just -- well , i thought you were gon na wait a little while before you started planning the wedding . chloe : uh , yeah , i was , but nicole and i went to pick out her dress . i 'm her maid of honor , and , well , i guess we just got a little carried away . kate : you get carried away a lot , do n't you ? must be the artist streak . you know , passionate , impetuous , reckless . are you sure you 're not gon na have problems settling down to a dull , married life ? chloe : no . kate : that is really so sweet . i mean , it 's so unusual nowadays to find a young woman who would voluntarily choose monogamy . melanie : you did this , did n't you ? you got e.j . to back out of the deal ? philip : of course i did . it 's in my best interest to protect this company 's assets , and i 'm not about to be bested by smurfette . melanie : this is n't business anymore , philip . this is personal . you 're doing it to get back at me . philip : of course , again . melanie , you 're like a 2-year - old who pulls on a dog 's ears and then gets indignant when the dog bites . and the longer you stay here being , you know , melanie - esque , the more likely i am to bring legal action , so it 's in your best interest to get the hell out of here . melanie : i 'm going . i 'm going . you know , you 're very lucky , stephanie . you got yourself a real prince charming . philip : unbelievable . absolutely unbelievable . stephanie : yeah , kind of like you . e.j . : money will be wired to you by the end of the day . excellent . father , that japanese associate of ours has agreed to sell off his shares of the petroleum company . stefano : and the shares cost ? e.j . : 18 cents below what you wanted to buy them for . stefano : good work . yes , that 's a sizable savings . e.j . : although , if i 'm being completely honest , i still think that we should have waited . the way the market is today ... stefano : are you questioning my expertise ? e.j . : i 'm not questioning your expertise , but i do oversee day - to - day operations , and i keep a fairly close eye on what 's happening in the markets . stefano : well , listen , i think that we can talk about the international markets later . right now , i think what we should focus on is the domestic . e.j . : meaning what ? stefano : meaning i just saw your fiancée having a cozy little luncheon with samantha brady . now , what do you think that is all about ? sami : i just want to be left alone , okay ? so i think you can make it clear to e.j . how much he 's risking by continuing to deal with me . nicole : and if i do n't ? sami : all right . this is definitely something i do n't want you to know , but fine . you know the guy from the witness - protection program , the one who was guarding me ? nicole : mm - hmm . sami : e.j . saw us kiss . and he went ballistic . why do you think that is ? nicole : obviously he does n't want johnny 's mother hanging around hired muscle . sami : or e.j . does n't want to see me kissing anyone else . because none of us may want to admit it , but what e.j . and i had ... it 's still there . announcer : out of all the gloom and doom comes the great buys of moneywise . they 're `` global national `` stories that show you how to get the most out of your money whether you 're buying for the table or for the whole house . to see how far it 'll go , see `` global national . `` stephanie : i should get back to work . philip : but we were talking . i thought we were getting somewhere . stephanie : maybe we were , but then she showed up . philip : you ca n't possibly think i have feelings for her . you saw how i dealt with her . stephanie : yeah , i did , and i did n't like it . philip : now you 're sticking up for melanie . stephanie : no , our problem -- and it 's huge -- is that you have your dad and i have mine . philip : i do n't get it . stephanie : okay , my dad 's tough , really tough -- definitely not cuddly -- but i 've never seen him kick someone when they were down . philip : and you think that 's what i did ? stephanie : i know you 're not gon na sue melanie . you just wanted to scare her . philip : but she -- stephanie : brought it on herself ? sure , but it 's in your kiriakis blood to go in for the kill , just like your father does . philip : it 's business . stephanie : yeah , just like making out with melanie on maggie 's kitchen table was business ? i do n't like the things you call `` business . `` look , you want to try and change ? go ahead , but you 'd be giving up your life 's mission . philip : what , you think this is my mission ? stephanie : no , i think it 's showing the world that you 're as strong as your father . melanie : so , you think my life is funny ? max : it 's really bad , is n't it ? melanie : everybody hates me . max : `` everybody `` as in who ? melanie : philip . he 's just as mean as ever . max : and for no reason . who else ? melanie : e.j . he does n't want to go through with the project and there 's nothing i can do about it . so then i told philip , and philip threw me out of his office and threatened to sue me . max : he wo n't do that , okay ? he was just trying to scare you . melanie : how do you know ? max : because you do n't have a dime . and philip 's not gon na waste any money on lawyers for nothing . melanie : oh , my gosh . i 'm not even worth suing . max : okay , so it was a bad day , very bad day . maybe a wake - up call ? melanie : max , i 've had e.j . and philip telling me off and telling me how stupid i am . i really -- i do n't need to hear it from you , too , okay ? max : okay . okay . stefano : so ... you 're not even curious ? e.j . : hmm ? what ? stefano : the mothers of your children , who are infamous for their hatred for each other , are having a tête - à - tête behind your back and it means nothing to you ? e.j . : father , i 'm working on a $ 17-million - deal and you want me to get agitated because samantha and nicole are having lunch ? stefano : right , mm - hmm . they 're probably just sitting there swapping recipes , you know , or comparing prenups . e.j . : i do n't know . maybe nicole is over samantha 's return . maybe they both realize that they have to find some kind of working resolution to the situation for the sake of their respective children . stefano : right . they are being mature and selfless . [ laughs ] aye - ye - ye - ye - ye . so you trust the both of them . e.j . : i do n't know . do i have a choice ? stefano : good question . but the blonde , she went to a convent on the south side . the convent of the holy cross . e.j . : father . is there something that you 're not telling me ? nicole : you really do take the cake , do n't you , sami ? is this your idea of fun ? what we have is still here ? in your dreams , bitch . sami : i do n't want e.j . i want a cease - fire . i want us to be able to work together on this , but i want you to know that i am a formidable opponent whether you like it or not . nicole : vice versa , baby cakes . vice versa . chloe : you do n't like the dress , do you ? kate : now , i did n't say that . look who 's here . daniel , come here . could you join us for a minute , please ? chloe just picked out her wedding dress , and we need your opinion . closed captioning is brought to you in part by biobest maximmunite . the only probiotic drink with the immunofit blend of 10 billion active cultures . max : i think all your problems are self - inflicted . melanie : yeah ? max : yeah . philip and e.j . were handed all this wealth and power . that did n't happen to us . melanie : really ? i had n't noticed . max : if you want that , it 's gon na be a long road to get there . and maybe what they have is n't as good as what it seems from the outside , huh ? melanie : you really kind of think things through , do n't you ? that 's why you and i do n't really have that much in common , huh ? i think , max , that i want to be alone for a while . max : mel . mel . i 'm sorry . brady : how you doing ? melanie : um , why do n't you ask philip , okay ? philip : do you really want me to apologize for trying to emulate my father ? i 'm proud of him . i 'm proud of his accomplishments . stephanie : i 'm not asking you to apologize any more than i 'm about to apologize for being how i am . i 'm just saying who we are and where we come from might make us incompatible . philip : a euphemism for you do n't like me or my family . stephanie : i think incompatible is exactly the right word . philip , i do n't judge you . i do n't dislike you . i just ca n't live the way you do . and i ca n't stand to watch you live the way you do . philip : stephanie , how about we talk about our personal relationship over dinner ? stephanie : is that code for `` we should get back to work `` all of a sudden ? philip : i did n't ask you just to come up here to -- stephanie : hit on me or something ? philip : nicely put . anyway , there 's an important file i 'm having trouble getting into and i need someone i can trust . our main tech guy is sick , so ... stephanie : you need me ? philip : yeah , you . i doubt you 'll have any luck , but it 's worth a try . here 's the information . so , dinner . how about we try someplace new , huh ? there 's an inn right up the road . stephanie : philip , i ca n't fend you off and work at the same time . huh ? philip : what ? stephanie : something 's not right . stefano : exactly what we expected . e.j . : exactly when we expected it . stefano : you reject melanie , and she trots right back to titan . e.j . : i wonder if she has any idea how utterly predictable she is . stefano : i wonder if victor and philip have any idea that they are about to be blow out of the water . nicole : well , it was lovely bumping into you like this . we should do it again sometime . how about never ? is never good for you ? sami : just think about what i said . nicole : you too , sami . kate : so , what we were thinking -- well , actually , the truth is , what i was thinking is that chloe could use a man 's opinion . nicole : wow , and i thought i was having a bad day . kate : because her family is n't in town , so i do n't know . maybe you could act as father of the bride . what do you think ? maybe a fa uvorite uncle . anyway , you could be a man that she could really trust . daniel : you know what ? it looks fine to me . yeah . so , you , uh , already set a date ? chloe : uh , no , not yet . i just bought the dress . daniel : well , i 'm sure you 'll look great in it . um , excuse me . bar 's calling my name . kate : wow . daniel is certainly a man who knows how to hide his true feelings . chloe : what ? kate : come on , chloe . do you really think i do n't know what 's going on ? chloe : what do you mean ? nothing 's going on . kate : do you really expect me to believe that ? i saw the way you were looking at him . chloe : kate , i - i do n't know what you mean . kate : come on . we both know ... that he did n't like that dress . chloe : o - oh . oh , he did n't ? kate : [ chuckles ] no . did n't you see how uncomfortable he was ? i mean , he could n't wait to get away from us . actually , i think that 's something the two of you have in common , that bedrock honesty that makes you so uncomfortable when you 're lying . well , i mean , or when you 're covering something up , i should say . chloe : yeah , i - i guess so . kate : it must have been very difficult for you , that period leading up to your breakup with lucas . chloe : i just thought that ... kate : it 's kind of uncomfortable for you to talk about ? oh , sweetie , you are going to have to be patient with me . i 'm afraid i have a tendency to cross boundaries . you can ask chelsea or philip . once you 're part of the family , i think every part of your life is going to be fair game . you 're probably going to end up hating me . chloe : no . so , uh , you did n't like the dress , either . kate : actually , i think we could find something that would be more flattering to your figure . see ?

sister theresa : sami , just because they know we have a baby here does n't mean they know who the baby is . sami : i guess you 're right . i just get scared . so , everyone loves her ? sister theresa : oh , because she is the sweetest little thing . yesterday , this young woman stopped by , and grace was so calm when she picked her up . sami : what woman ? who was there ? who was she ? philip : titan 's entire database was wiped clean . stephanie : how could that happen ? philip : oh , i have a damn good idea . melanie : could we tie philip to those chairs and break those bottles over his head ?

i mean , i 'm sure you got a really good explanation as to -- what time did he come home again ? how late was he ? nicole : you do n't scare me . sami : i 'm not trying to . i just want to explain to you how important it is that the two of us talk . stefano : oh , katarina . ha ha . what a lovely coincidence . kate : yes . stefano : allow me to treat you to lunch . kate : oh , sorry . i already have a date . stefano : oh ?

stefano : well , a little tête - à - tête with samantha brady . you do n't see that very often . kate : [ chuckles ] you know , you really should n't be spying . you ought to just bug the baby carriage . stefano : [ laughing ] you know , i really like the way you think , katarina . oh , my , my , my . what in the world do you think is going on over there ? sami : while e.j . was at my place last night , we , uh -- we just talked . nicole : i know that . what i do n't know is why you made it out to be something else . sami : to get you to stay . nicole : what ? sami : e.j . and i talked about the situation we are all in , but i realize now ... that there are two people who should be talking about it and that 's you and me . stefano : so -- thank you -- your , uh , luncheon companion , you do n't seem to be looking very much forward to seeing her . kate : it 's chloe . stefano : ah , chloe -- of the lifesaving marrow . uh - huh . kate : uh - huh . stefano : and your perspective daughter - in - law ? kate : the bug that needs to be squashed . stefano : whoa . well , that 's very interesting to hear that you 're not as beholden to her anymore , that , well , you know , it really did n't seem very kate - like . kate : you know , the way i see it , what happened was god had her spare my life so i can spare my son 's . stefano : ah . positive proof that there is a superior being . hmm - hmm . do you care to divulge to me what she has done that incurred your wrath ? kate : no . but i will tell you one thing -- she 's going to regret it for the rest of her life . melanie : you ca n't do this . e.j . : well , i can do this , and i did do this . melanie : we have a contract . e.j . : let me give you a little bit of advice for your future wheeling and dealing . it is always a good idea to spend as much time , if not more time , reading the contract than it is actually counting the cash advance . melanie : you ca n't do this . e.j . : well , according to the contract , i can , and you signed the contract three times . melanie : e.j . , i sold you the formula . e.j . : according to the deal that we had , everything becomes null and void if i do n't follow through with the project . now , i do n't know if i mentioned it to you , but i 'm not following through with the project . melanie : you are a son of a bitch . e.j . : have you kept a copy of that contract ? i suggest you go and look for it if you ca n't find it . because there 's a section in there that deals with the returning of the cash advance . melanie : i -- that 's gone . e.j . : well , then , you 're in a bit of a fix , are n't you ? melanie : are you enjoying this ? is this fun for you ? e.j . : miss layton , i told you that you were playing in the big leagues . i can assure you that , um , pouting is not a particularly effective negotiating technique . melanie : e.j . , this is not negotiating , okay ? this is you b.s.ing me . e.j . : oh , i 'm not talking about you and i. oh , no , no , no . you and i , we 're dead in the water . i 'm talking about you , when you go back to philip kiriakis . do you think he 's gon na mind very much that you stabbed him in the back ? melanie : why are you doing this to me ? e.j . : i 'm doing this because you are one of those unique individuals who rather learns through experience . and when this whole thing blows up in your face , you 're gon na start to grow up a little bit and realize that you 're not quite as smart as you think you are . melanie : god ! oh , no , no , no , no , e.j . , my friend . this is now how this is gon na end . e.j . : [ sighs ] kids today . stefano : i think i better be going . kate : oh , frustrated that you ca n't hear the conversation ? stefano : i might not be able to hear , but i certainly am going to find out what they are talking about . ciao . sami : her big brother is my son . you and e.j . and i -- we are all connected whether we like it or not . and we have to learn to respect each other and respect our privacy . nicole : was it respect for my privacy that had you holding my baby ? sami : nicole , get over it . i wanted to hold your beautiful little girl for a second . it 's not that big a deal . i mean , is that really all she means to you ? she 's just another tool in the `` i hate sami `` game ? nicole : no , that is not true . sami : good . because i was n't doing it to get at you . look , i have my own problems . and one of them affects you . nicole : how ? sami : i went to see my dad this morning , and i was going to talk to him about the guy who was protecting me while i was in the witness - protection program , and e.j . was already there . he was already butting into my life , trying to control who i see and what i do . nicole : i do n't believe it . sami : i think you do . otherwise , you would n't be sitting here talking to me right now . nicole , i do n't want e.j . in my life any more than you do . chloe : i 'm afraid i do n't know what you 're talking about . brady : neither do i most of the time . daniel : well , we should , uh -- we should do this again sometime when i 'm not so ... brady : [ chuckles ] daniel : um ... chloe . brady : you know , i hope i 'm not breaking a confidence here , but i got to tell you , that guy had one hell of a hangover this morning , chloe . chloe : did he ? brady : yeah , yeah , he did . something 's really eating at him . and i got to tell you , something seems to be eating at you , too . just not yourself right now . you 're a little jumpy , a little pale . chloe : you know what ? real fun bumping into you , brady . brady : i think i know what it is , though . it 's the wedding plans , right ? i mean , they got you crazy , right ? chloe : no . brady : not sure if you picked the right dress . you 're probably not sure if you picked the right ... guy . chloe : why are you doing this to me ? brady : because i want you to be happy , long - term happy . chloe : well , you have a real funny way of showing it . brady : you know what the great thing is about having an ex - husband who pretty much screwed up his life publicly ? you can tell him anything and he ca n't judge you . he wo n't judge you . all i 'll do is listen to you . chloe : that sounds really nice . brady : all right , then , let 's -- let 's go to lunch and talk about it , then . come on . chloe : i can't . i 'm supposed to be meeting someone and i 'm late already . i 'm sorry . brady : okay . chloe . it 's a standing invitation . you can call me anytime , okay ? chloe : thanks . philip : what we had , it 's still there . stephanie : you 're right . you 're absolutely right . philip : we can have it all back . stephanie : you 're right again . how could i have been so stupid ? let me just step out and get a quick lobotomy and then we 'll be good to go . philip : stephanie . stephanie : that 's what i 'll have to do , right , to forget everything you 've done ? be too stupid to see what you 're doing now ? that way , when you screw up again , you can just kiss me and i 'll be that pliable little nothing you want . philip : that 's not what i want . stephanie : then how else do you explain a girl being summoned into her boss ' office to get kissed and then goes , `` i like kissing him . nothing else matters `` ? philip : i think it 's more than that . we have a connection . stephanie : yes , you 're handsome . yes , you 're a great kisser , but i would be a total idiot to ever trust you again . philip : so there 's no more second chances ? i make one mistake . stephanie : `` a mistake `` ? philip : a huge mistake . yes , you saw the absolute worst part of me . but what about the part of me that wants to change ? stephanie : i did n't see that just now . what i saw was a guy who thinks he can get a woman to do whatever he wants by turning up the heat . i do n't want to be that girl , philip . philip : well , maybe that 's why i ca n't get you out of my head . you do n't think about me , what you want . but it 's you being you that wipes me out . stephanie , just pl -- tell me . look , steer me in the right direction . stephanie : philip ... melanie : i do n't care if he 's conferencing with donald trump , okay ? you are gon na conference with me right now . chloe : hey , kate . i 'm so sorry i 'm late . kate : oh , stop . i 'm just so glad that you made time for me . i know you must have so many other important things to do now that the wedding 's back on . chloe : uh , no . i 'm actually really glad that we 're doing this . i wanted to talk to you . kate : really ? why ? chloe : well , i was worried that you 're angry at me . kate : angry at you ? what about ? chloe : lucas drinking again . kate : chloe , come on . i told you -- chloe : i know that you said you were n't , but i was so mad at myself about it that i figured you must be , too . kate : darling , if i felt that way , i would tell you . i think that you and i have to be honest with each other about absolutely everything . do n't you agree ? chloe : sure . kate : i mean , if i 've learned anything over the years , it 's that honesty is the best way . i mean , what 's covered up , denied festers , and the fallout can be just devastating . chloe : yeah , well , it does n't ever seem to work out well in operas . kate : oh , good lord . listen to me . i 'm absolutely ruining a lovely lunch , and here we have a beautiful young bride - to - be . chloe : oh , speaking of that , i have something to show you . all right . take a look at this . kate : what is it ? chloe : it 's my wedding dress . nicole : so , e.j . went to talk to roman about the guy who was guarding you . sami : right . nicole : why ? sami : i do n't know . i guess because e.j . thought he was protecting me . i mean , he and rafe did n't exactly hit it off . nicole : so e.j . did n't come home to his daughter because he was protecting you from your ex - bodyguard . sami : yeah . nicole : [ laughs ] no , no , no . this had to be about johnny . obviously , he did n't want this guy being around him . sami : oh , 'cause that 's not hypocritical . when my son is staying at chez dimera , i do n't have a right to say who e.j . gets to shack up with . nicole : always a pleasure . sami : all right , nicole , fine . all right , it slipped out . old habits and whatnot . i meant what i said . we have to find a way to get along . nicole : meaning you want something from me . so spill . what is it ? sami : yes , nicole . i do want something from you , but , luckily , it 's something you want , too . nicole : yeah , right . sami : we both have a child with e.j . , but i 've been in this position longer than you have . i know more . nicole : there are significant differences , sami . he loves me . there 's no question of paternity . sami : okay , fine . but we do both have a child with e.j . , okay ? and maybe he was doing it to protect johnny this morning , but , you know , ultimately , it does n't matter why he was doing it . e.j . is a dimera , and he must think he still owns me somehow . and maybe he 's more involved than stefano . i mean , if it were stefano , he 'd probably tell e.j . to start a harem and then find more women to have sons with . nicole : what ? that is not true . sami : e.j . and i share a son , and i would n't trade johnny for anything in the world . but obviously you think things are gon na work out with your baby . you think it 's gon na be okay , and who knows ? you might be right . maybe it will . but i would n't do that again in a million years . nicole : you 're scared , are n't you ? really scared . melanie : do n't bad things happen to guys who hit on their interns in presidential offices ? philip : how the hell did you get in here ? melanie : that 's not what you need to be focusing on . you need to listen to what i have to tell you . philip : i will call security and have you thrown out , again . melanie : so you guys patched things up ? stephanie : do you want me to go , philip ? philip : no , no , she 's leaving now . melanie : listen , philip , you need to listen to me . i just found out that e.j . is not going forward with the project . now , this can be very good news for titan and , of course , also for myself . philip : good news for you that your corporate espionage blew up in your face ? melanie : i 'm really hoping that you will focus on the opportunity we now have . with e.j . out of the picture , we can forge ahead without any competition . philip : you know , i agree with that . melanie : you do ? philip : except with the pronoun . i can forge ahead , not we . melanie : nick gave me the project . if that project makes money , that money is mine . philip : not if titan decides to sue you for breach of contract or intellectual property theft . i have seven lawyers on this very floor . how many do you have ? melanie : you know what nick wanted . he wanted me to have his profits . philip : melanie , it 's over , done with . you lost . you have one last decision to make . do you want to walk , or do you want to be thrown out of the office ? sami : nicole , i 'm not scared . i just want my life back . and i do n't want e.j . involved in my life anymore , and i think you do n't want that , either . nicole : so you 're saying all i have to do is tell him to back off , you 're out of bounds , and he 'll buy it . sami : no , i told him that already this morning , and you 're right . i do n't think it had any effect on him . nicole : and you think coming from me it will . sami : well , yeah . nicole , just explain to him that he has to stop obsessing about me or johnny , if that 's how you want to look at it . otherwise , he could lose what he wants most . nicole : you want me to use my daughter as leverage to get you what you want . sami : you want it , too , nicole . look , i 'm trying to be nice here , okay ? i 'm trying to change how you and i do business . but i think it would be smart for you to remember that i do have some power in this situation . nicole : [ chuckles ] wow . if that 's a threat , i 'm not worried about you and e.j . sami : you would be if you knew . nicole : what ? if i knew what , sami ? chloe : you do n't like it . kate : no , it 's -- it 's fine . i just -- well , i thought you were gon na wait a little while before you started planning the wedding . chloe : uh , yeah , i was , but nicole and i went to pick out her dress . i 'm her maid of honor , and , well , i guess we just got a little carried away . kate : you get carried away a lot , do n't you ? must be the artist streak . you know , passionate , impetuous , reckless . are you sure you 're not gon na have problems settling down to a dull , married life ? chloe : no . kate : that is really so sweet . i mean , it 's so unusual nowadays to find a young woman who would voluntarily choose monogamy . melanie : you did this , did n't you ? you got e.j . to back out of the deal ? philip : of course i did . it 's in my best interest to protect this company 's assets , and i 'm not about to be bested by smurfette . melanie : this is n't business anymore , philip . this is personal . you 're doing it to get back at me . philip : of course , again . melanie , you 're like a 2-year - old who pulls on a dog 's ears and then gets indignant when the dog bites . and the longer you stay here being , you know , melanie - esque , the more likely i am to bring legal action , so it 's in your best interest to get the hell out of here . melanie : i 'm going . i 'm going . you know , you 're very lucky , stephanie . you got yourself a real prince charming . philip : unbelievable . absolutely unbelievable . stephanie : yeah , kind of like you . e.j . : money will be wired to you by the end of the day . excellent . father , that japanese associate of ours has agreed to sell off his shares of the petroleum company . stefano : and the shares cost ? e.j . : 18 cents below what you wanted to buy them for . stefano : good work . yes , that 's a sizable savings . e.j . : although , if i 'm being completely honest , i still think that we should have waited . the way the market is today ... stefano : are you questioning my expertise ? e.j . : i 'm not questioning your expertise , but i do oversee day - to - day operations , and i keep a fairly close eye on what 's happening in the markets . stefano : well , listen , i think that we can talk about the international markets later . right now , i think what we should focus on is the domestic . e.j . : meaning what ? stefano : meaning i just saw your fiancée having a cozy little luncheon with samantha brady . now , what do you think that is all about ? sami : i just want to be left alone , okay ? so i think you can make it clear to e.j . how much he 's risking by continuing to deal with me . nicole : and if i do n't ? sami : all right . this is definitely something i do n't want you to know , but fine . you know the guy from the witness - protection program , the one who was guarding me ? nicole : mm - hmm . sami : e.j . saw us kiss . and he went ballistic . why do you think that is ? nicole : obviously he does n't want johnny 's mother hanging around hired muscle . sami : or e.j . does n't want to see me kissing anyone else . because none of us may want to admit it , but what e.j . and i had ... it 's still there . announcer : out of all the gloom and doom comes the great buys of moneywise . they 're `` global national `` stories that show you how to get the most out of your money whether you 're buying for the table or for the whole house . to see how far it 'll go , see `` global national . `` stephanie : i should get back to work . philip : but we were talking . i thought we were getting somewhere . stephanie : maybe we were , but then she showed up . philip : you ca n't possibly think i have feelings for her . you saw how i dealt with her . stephanie : yeah , i did , and i did n't like it . philip : now you 're sticking up for melanie . stephanie : no , our problem -- and it 's huge -- is that you have your dad and i have mine . philip : i do n't get it . stephanie : okay , my dad 's tough , really tough -- definitely not cuddly -- but i 've never seen him kick someone when they were down . philip : and you think that 's what i did ? stephanie : i know you 're not gon na sue melanie . you just wanted to scare her . philip : but she -- stephanie : brought it on herself ? sure , but it 's in your kiriakis blood to go in for the kill , just like your father does . philip : it 's business . stephanie : yeah , just like making out with melanie on maggie 's kitchen table was business ? i do n't like the things you call `` business . `` look , you want to try and change ? go ahead , but you 'd be giving up your life 's mission . philip : what , you think this is my mission ? stephanie : no , i think it 's showing the world that you 're as strong as your father . melanie : so , you think my life is funny ? max : it 's really bad , is n't it ? melanie : everybody hates me . max : `` everybody `` as in who ? melanie : philip . he 's just as mean as ever . max : and for no reason . who else ? melanie : e.j . he does n't want to go through with the project and there 's nothing i can do about it . so then i told philip , and philip threw me out of his office and threatened to sue me . max : he wo n't do that , okay ? he was just trying to scare you . melanie : how do you know ? max : because you do n't have a dime . and philip 's not gon na waste any money on lawyers for nothing . melanie : oh , my gosh . i 'm not even worth suing . max : okay , so it was a bad day , very bad day . maybe a wake - up call ? melanie : max , i 've had e.j . and philip telling me off and telling me how stupid i am . i really -- i do n't need to hear it from you , too , okay ? max : okay . okay . stefano : so ... you 're not even curious ? e.j . : hmm ? what ? stefano : the mothers of your children , who are infamous for their hatred for each other , are having a tête - à - tête behind your back and it means nothing to you ? e.j . : father , i 'm working on a $ 17-million - deal and you want me to get agitated because samantha and nicole are having lunch ? stefano : right , mm - hmm . they 're probably just sitting there swapping recipes , you know , or comparing prenups . e.j . : i do n't know . maybe nicole is over samantha 's return . maybe they both realize that they have to find some kind of working resolution to the situation for the sake of their respective children . stefano : right . they are being mature and selfless . [ laughs ] aye - ye - ye - ye - ye . so you trust the both of them . e.j . : i do n't know . do i have a choice ? stefano : good question . but the blonde , she went to a convent on the south side . the convent of the holy cross . e.j . : father . is there something that you 're not telling me ? nicole : you really do take the cake , do n't you , sami ? is this your idea of fun ? what we have is still here ? in your dreams , bitch . sami : i do n't want e.j . i want a cease - fire . i want us to be able to work together on this , but i want you to know that i am a formidable opponent whether you like it or not . nicole : vice versa , baby cakes . vice versa . chloe : you do n't like the dress , do you ? kate : now , i did n't say that . look who 's here . daniel , come here . could you join us for a minute , please ? chloe just picked out her wedding dress , and we need your opinion . closed captioning is brought to you in part by biobest maximmunite . the only probiotic drink with the immunofit blend of 10 billion active cultures . max : i think all your problems are self - inflicted . melanie : yeah ? max : yeah . philip and e.j . were handed all this wealth and power . that did n't happen to us . melanie : really ? i had n't noticed . max : if you want that , it 's gon na be a long road to get there . and maybe what they have is n't as good as what it seems from the outside , huh ? melanie : you really kind of think things through , do n't you ? that 's why you and i do n't really have that much in common , huh ? i think , max , that i want to be alone for a while . max : mel . mel . i 'm sorry . brady : how you doing ? melanie : um , why do n't you ask philip , okay ? philip : do you really want me to apologize for trying to emulate my father ? i 'm proud of him . i 'm proud of his accomplishments . stephanie : i 'm not asking you to apologize any more than i 'm about to apologize for being how i am . i 'm just saying who we are and where we come from might make us incompatible . philip : a euphemism for you do n't like me or my family . stephanie : i think incompatible is exactly the right word . philip , i do n't judge you . i do n't dislike you . i just ca n't live the way you do . and i ca n't stand to watch you live the way you do . philip : stephanie , how about we talk about our personal relationship over dinner ? stephanie : is that code for `` we should get back to work `` all of a sudden ? philip : i did n't ask you just to come up here to -- stephanie : hit on me or something ? philip : nicely put . anyway , there 's an important file i 'm having trouble getting into and i need someone i can trust . our main tech guy is sick , so ... stephanie : you need me ? philip : yeah , you . i doubt you 'll have any luck , but it 's worth a try . here 's the information . so , dinner . how about we try someplace new , huh ? there 's an inn right up the road . stephanie : philip , i ca n't fend you off and work at the same time . huh ? philip : what ? stephanie : something 's not right . stefano : exactly what we expected . e.j . : exactly when we expected it . stefano : you reject melanie , and she trots right back to titan . e.j . : i wonder if she has any idea how utterly predictable she is . stefano : i wonder if victor and philip have any idea that they are about to be blow out of the water . nicole : well , it was lovely bumping into you like this . we should do it again sometime . how about never ?
